"First of all, thank you all for being able to honor me today and come to the celebration banquet of "Fatal Express". The box office of "Fatal Express" can exceed 30 million, thanks to Mr. Kang Jianfei being the director of this film. Similarly, Aaron and Ms. Lin also contributed
Indispensable. Here, I would like to toast all those involved in this film, and wish Golden Harvest and DreamWorks can continue their friendly cooperation in the future..." Zou Wenhuai raised his wine glass high, saying that people are in high spirits when happy events happen, and the smile on his face was bright
Like a blooming chrysanthemum.
Kang Jianfei raised his wine glass speechlessly. Jiahe's move of holding a celebration banquet in advance made him feel depressed and unable to speak out.
You know with your toes that Hong Kong newspapers will report the box office success and celebration party of "Fatal Express" tomorrow, and Golden Harvest will become the dominant player in these news, making it seem like "Fatal Express" is Golden Harvest
It looks like it was shot by DreamWorks.
There is a saying that when the sun is booming, momentum and fame may seem to have little practical value, but when you actually start a company and do business, everything will become easier once the momentum builds.
To put it more clearly, Jiahe’s celebration banquet directly stole most of DreamWorks’ limelight.
After everyone drank a glass of wine, the guests at the meeting came over to toast and congratulate each other. Basically, they toasted Zou Wenhuai's wine first, and then turned to talk to Kang Jianfei. Bitch Fei became a complete foil this time. It must be said that in the
Among Hong Kong film colleagues, Zou Wenhuai's popularity is much better than that of Kang Jianfei.
Fortunately, there were also many people from Oriental Entertainment Company and DreamWorks. They naturally had to take care of their boss, so they all came to congratulate Kang Jianfei, which somewhat helped Bitch Fei regain some face.
Pan Disheng came back from the toast, put down his glass and said to Hong Jinbao: "Sanmao, what kind of movies do you think our company should make after Debao is established?"
Hong Jinbao looked at the beautiful woman sitting next to Pan Desheng. He recognized at a glance that she was the woman who had recently filmed a Ji Longxue watch commercial with Cheng Long, but Hong Jinbao did not know her name or origin.
Seeing that Hong Jinbao's eyes were fixed on the female companion he had brought, Pan Desheng smiled and said: "I forgot to introduce you. This lady's name is Michelle Yeoh. She was last year's Miss Malaysia champion. She can't speak yet.
Mandarin and Cantonese.”
As Pan Desheng spoke, he turned around and spoke to Michelle Yeoh in English, probably introducing Hong Jinbao or something like that.
After the two of them finished muttering, Michelle Yeung took the initiative to greet Hong Jinbao: "Hello, Mister Hong."
"Oh. It turns out to be Miss Yang, I'm so glad to meet you!" Hong Jinbao said with a smile, already thinking that Michelle Yang was Pan Desheng's new love interest. It is very common in Hong Kong for wealthy businessmen to pursue beauty pageants.
However, Hong Jinbao only guessed half of it right. Poon Disheng is indeed very fond of Michelle Yeoh, but he has not yet dared to pursue her rashly.
Because Michelle Yeoh is not an ordinary beauty pageant girl. She comes from a prominent family in Malaysia. Her grandfather owns a bus company, and her father is also a successful man in Malaysia. In a few years, she will even be canonized as a Dato (an honorary title).
).Such a family background is not something that Pan Desheng can get by just spending some money. He has to show some sincerity.
Some time ago, Pan Disheng got the agency rights of Ji Longxue Watches in Hong Kong. In order to quickly increase the brand awareness, Pan Disheng decided to ask Cheng Long and Lin Qingxia to shoot a watch advertisement - "Fatal Express" had just started to hit theaters at that time.
It's a pity that Lin Qingxia has stopped filming any commercials since she became famous in Taiwan. Pan Desheng has to look for other commercial heroines.
A Malaysian friend of Pan Disheng's happened to be a family friend of Michelle Yeoh, so he helped to recommend Michelle Yeoh to go to Hong Kong to shoot commercials.
Michelle Yeung had no worries about food and clothing since she was a child. She began to learn painting, ballet and piano at the age of four. She also practiced swimming, badminton, skiing and horse riding, and also participated in diving competitions. She previously studied dance.
A few years ago, I suffered a serious injury due to overtraining. From then on, I could no longer dance ballet, so I changed my major to drama.
Last year, Michelle Yeoh returned to Malaysia after graduating from the UK. She was bored and ran to participate in a beauty contest, but she won the championship inexplicably. After becoming the beauty pageant champion, various advertising and film appointments in Malaysia came to Michelle Yeoh, which made Michelle Yeoh extremely annoyed.
After receiving Pan Desheng's invitation, Michelle Yeung came to Hong Kong purely for a trip to relax. Unexpectedly, once the commercial co-produced with Cheng Long was aired, it immediately attracted attention in Hong Kong.
There was no way, Michelle Yeoh was so beautiful when she was young. She was really the kind of beauty who would become the center of attention wherever she went. When Pan Disheng saw Michelle Yeoh for the first time, he was so excited that he decided to pursue her, so he thought
On the pretext of hiring Michelle Yeoh to film a movie, he left his favorite beauty in Hong Kong.
Hung Kam-bo's Bao Wo had just filmed a street movie two months ago. He was about to start a new movie to restore his reputation. How could he be in the mood to play with Pan Disheng, a young man? He immediately said: "For now
I don’t have any good ideas yet, and Mr. Zou is planning to let me and Aaron shoot a new movie after the year, so I’ll think about the company’s entrepreneurial projects.”
Pan Desheng was a little anxious after hearing this and said, "Then Debao's opening film will have to wait until the second half of the year to be filmed?"
Hong Jinbao explained: "Mr. Pan, making a movie is not as fast as possible. To tell you the truth, after "Fatal Express" became a hit, Mr. Zou was planning to make a similar movie. Now it has been decided that Yuen Biao and I will
Along with Aaron, the film will be filmed in either France or Spain. The film will be screened in the summer. If Debao's entrepreneurial film is filmed early, it will only be in the garbage schedule of Jiahe Cinema. In this way, it might as well be filmed in the second half of the year.
, head straight to the Christmas stalls.”
Although Pan Disheng doesn't know how big the difference is between the ordinary period and the prime period, he is in a jewelry store and he also understands that compared with holidays, jewelry sales during holidays are much better.
In another time and space, Pan Disheng was discussing opening a company with Hong Jinbao in 1983, and it was not until February 1984 that Debao was officially registered, but its debut film "The Owl and Dumbo" was not released until the Christmas season at the end of the year.
Similarly, Desheng Pan persuaded Michelle Yeoh to sign with Debao when the company was first established. Unfortunately, as the Miss Malaysia champion, Michelle Yeoh had to go back to fulfill some championship obligations. After working hard for more than half a year, Desheng Pan invited her back to pat her on the back.
Movie.
Pan Disheng's purpose of opening a film company used to be to promote the luxury brands he represented, but now he also has to add another way to pick up girls. Brand promotion can be done in other ways, but it is very difficult to find an excuse to pick up girls. Pan Disheng is temporarily unable to film.
The student was very depressed.
Hong Jinbao's mind was full of the new drama he was about to collaborate with Cheng Long, while Pan Disheng was thinking about how to keep the beauty in Hong Kong. The two of them had nothing to talk about sex.
Michelle Yeoh is like a curious baby, turning her head and looking around from time to time. She has been studying at the Royal Academy of Dance in the United Kingdom for the past few years. She just graduated last year and is not very familiar with Hong Kong stars. Even Cheng Long and
Lin Qingxia is rarely heard of.
However, even though she was studying in the UK, Michelle Yeung had heard of Kang Jianfei's name because his "Original Scenery of Hometown" and "Home Alone" are both very famous in the UK.
"Dixon, do you know Mr. Kang Jianfei?" Michelle Yang suddenly asked Pan Desheng.
After all, Kang Jianfei is an internationally renowned director. In order to show that he has a wide range of contacts, Pan Disheng smiled and nodded and said, "Of course we know each other. We have worked together just after Mr. Kang made his first movie. We are still old friends."
Michelle Yeung asked expectantly: "Can you help introduce him? I've always wanted to get to know him."
Pan Disheng had a bad feeling. He brought Michelle Yeoh to the celebration banquet just to prove to her that he had many friends in the Hong Kong film industry so as to persuade Michelle Yeoh to sign a contract with the soon-to-be-established Debao Film Company.
But now Michelle Yeoh takes the initiative to get acquainted with Kang Jianfei. You must know that Kang Jianfei's celebrity management company has almost a monopoly in Hong Kong. What if Michelle Yeoh goes to Oriental Entertainment Company? Then isn't Pan Desheng the same?
Make wedding clothes for others!
However, Pan Disheng had just boasted that he and Kang Jianfei were old friends, and there was really no reason to refuse Yang Michelle's request. He could only say helplessly: "Of course, but Mr. Kang is having too many social events now, we will go there later.
Bar."
Seeing that many people came up to chat with Kang Jianfei and toast her, Yang Ziqiong nodded and said nothing. Since she didn't speak Chinese, she couldn't communicate with other people at the same table, so she had to keep her head down and taste the red wine in the glass.
At this moment, Chen Huiyi suddenly walked up to Hong Jinbao and whispered: "Brother Sanmao, I just heard that New Era Cinema is planning to release a Western film for the Spring Festival."
"Western film?" Hong Jinbao exclaimed in surprise, "Isn't it the "City Lights" directed by Zhang Jianting?"
It doesn’t matter to Hung Jin-po what kind of movies New Era Cinemas will release during the Spring Festival. However, this year’s Spring Festival schedule for Golden Harvest Cinemas is Baohe Film Company’s “Man Scares Ghosts.” This movie is directed by Qian Yuesheng
, starring Lin Zhengying, Chen Long and others, and the entire production team is from the Hong family class.
Since Cheung Kin-ting's "A Love Affair" directed last year was a hit, he also filmed "City Lights" during this period. Therefore, Hong Jinbao has been combining "City Lights" with New Arts City's "The Best Partner 3".
》As the biggest competitor, who would have thought that New Era Cinema would actually include Western films in its Spring Festival schedule.
"What else did you find out?" Hong Jinbao asked.
Chen Huiyi, like Lin Zhengying, was Bruce Lee's right-hand man back then. He was also the producer of "Man Scares Ghosts". He immediately replied: "I heard that it is a Western film invested by Kang Jianfei in Hollywood. It will start promoting it in Hong Kong in two days."
.”
Hong Jinbao became more and more puzzled. He had not heard that Kang Jianfei had recently invested in making a film in Hollywood. Moreover, Western films released in Hong Kong were usually introduced after they were completed in Europe and the United States, so there were more gimmicks to do in publicity.
However, Hong Jinbao did not know that Kang Jianfei also wanted to release "Terminator" in the United States first. Unfortunately, 20th Century Fox had its own film to release, and could not schedule "Terminator" in the Christmas period. The screening plan in North America was only
Can be postponed.
"Dixon, Mr. Kang is here!" Michelle Yeoh suddenly reminded with a little excitement.
Pan Disheng turned his head and saw Kang Jianfei holding a wine glass and walking towards this side with a smile. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian () to vote for recommendations, monthly votes, your
