"Pretty Woman", written by Kang Jianfei and starring Sophie Marceau as the heroine, received a total of 5 Golden Globe nominations and 3 Oscar nominations under the operation of Paramount.
Although these nominations only resulted in one award, this award was so important that it directly made Sophie Marceau the Golden Globe Best Actress. Sophie Marceau's salary skyrocketed to more than 6 million US dollars.
As for the third animated film "Mulan" produced by Dark Horse Animation Company, it has now been scheduled to be tested in 25 theaters in the United States. If the audience responds well, it is likely to be released in the spring of North America. If the test results are not good, then
"Mulan" can only be released during the off-season between the Spring Festival and summer.
James Cameron's "Terminator 2" has also reached the final stage. It will be sent for review and grading next month, and it will be properly released to North American audiences in the summer.
Kang Jianfei is thriving in Hollywood, how can Mr. Zou from Jiahe be lonely?
Before this year's Hong Kong Film Awards, Zou Wenhuai went to California to visit his daughter, who was studying for a master's degree in film at Stanford University. At the same time, he bought the film agency rights for "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles".
If nothing else goes wrong, Golden Harvest's "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" will be very popular next year, selling like hotcakes in both North America and Asia, setting off a trend of adapting "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" into movies, TV shows, animations, and games.
The comedy film "The Anchor" starring Chow Yun-fat, Choi Jin-jin and Li Ming has finally come to an end in South Korea, breaking the box office record of local Korean movies without any suspense. Under the operation of Oriental Entertainment Distribution Company, a subsidiary of Oriental Culture and Entertainment Group
Next, "Extraordinary Anchor" will be released in Hong Kong and Taiwan in April and May respectively.
By the way, Chow Yun-fat returned to Hong Kong after filming "The Extraordinary Anchor", while Li Ming continued to stay in South Korea and is now co-starring with Choi Jin-sil in his second romance film. He has also received a lot of Korean commercials.
A lot.
The script of "A Lang's Story", which was written as early as last year, was officially launched after the Lantern Festival. The male and female protagonists are Zhou Runfa and Zhong Chuhong respectively, and the directors are Ang Lee and Wu Ruiqing.
There is absolutely no doubt about Ang Lee's ability, not just because of his subsequent achievements. The two awards he won for his graduation work alone are enough to prove his excellence.
After working as Kang Jianfei's assistant for two years, Ang Lee has already become familiar with the process and cultural connotation of Hong Kong films. It's time to let him try his skills. As for his cousin Wu Ruiqing, this guy actually has more prospects as a screenwriter, but he is not.
I want to imitate Kang Jianfei as a director. I have been making movies with my cousin for several years, but I still lack the ability to control the overall situation. This time being thrown by Kang Jianfei to be Ang Lee's deputy is a kind of training.
As for the child who plays a major role in the film, since he could not find a good child actor, finally Zhou Runfa recommended Kang Hyun-jin, a Korean child who played his grandson in "The Anchorman".
"A Lang's Story" was launched quietly. What ordinary Hong Kong citizens are more concerned about is the ratings war between TVB's "Intolerance" and Phoenix TV's "Fengshen Bang".
"Intolerance" is another TVB drama produced by Wei Jiahui, starring Huang Rihua, Liu Jialing, Shang Tian'e, Shao Meiqi, Wen Zhaolun, Deng Cuiwen. The cast is strong and familiar to Hong Kong audiences. "Feng Shen Bang" is a joint venture between East TV Company and Shanghai TV Station.
The mythological drama co-produced by Hainan TV Station is quite disadvantaged in terms of actors, because Hong Kong audiences only know Tang Zhenzong, who appeared in one or two episodes and died. However, the on-site shooting in mainland China, the martial arts guidance of Kang Jiaban, and the meticulous work of the mainland TV drama director
, the quality of the filmed "Feng Shen Bang" is already comparable to that of a movie. Moreover, in order to take care of Hong Kong audiences, "Feng Shen Bang" has also been redubbed in Cantonese.
The two TV series coincidentally were released after the Lantern Festival, because the spring movie schedule has ended at this time, and it is a good time to broadcast popular TV series.
Most of the housewives and older viewers like to watch TVB's "Intolerance"; students and many young people like "Feng Shen Bang", which has strange gods and fierce fights. The final result is that the ratings of the two dramas have dropped.
It's hard to tell, it's almost a 50-50 situation.
In addition to the ratings war between the two TV stations, there is another matter that has attracted much attention, and that is that Kang Jianfei is finally going to publish a new book after putting it aside for many years.
When Kang Jianfei published "Clouds and Rains", in order to avoid the trouble of being exposed as a ghostwriter in the future, he admitted very simply that he conceived the outline of the novel and then asked Huang Yilai to write it.
Huang Yi became famous in the Hong Kong literary world. After serializing "Clouds and Rains", he continued to write a number of short and medium science fiction and martial arts novels in "Oriental Daily News". I heard that he is planning to write a full-length novel recently.
As for Kang Jianfei's book fans, they have long given up on the idea of Kang Jianfei publishing a new book. After all, Kang Jianfei is a big boss and a big director now, and he doesn't like the royalties for writing books. The box office of any movie he makes is enough for many writers to write.
I have been reading all my life.
But I never expected that during the Lantern Festival, a full-page advertisement appeared in "Oriental Daily" with only a few lines of large characters:
Kang Jianfei's new work "Tomb Raiders Notes" will be serialized on March 1, so stay tuned!
Countdown to the first release of the new book, 9 days left!
As soon as this advertisement came out, Kang Jianfei's old book fans and movie fans were surprised and told their relatives and friends one after another.
"Sing Tao Daily" suddenly published another article questioning Kang Jianfei's real purpose of publishing a new book: "As we all know, Kang Jianfei has been very busy in recent years. In the first half of last year, he wrote the script for the Hollywood movie "Pretty Woman", and also has to write and direct "
"Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance"; he also plans the games and comics of "The King of Fighters", and even wrote the script of the previous "Big Era". The most important thing is that Mr. Kang has been involved in many romantic affairs, but he only dealt with those three
Between you and the beauty, I'm afraid it takes a lot of energy. How can he have time to write another "Tomb Raiders Notes"? I'm afraid this so-called new work is another work written by someone to gain fame and reputation..."
"Oriental Daily" interviewed Kang Jianfei about the matter and published an article in response the next day. Kang Jianfei didn't even bother to defend himself and directly issued a reward order: "If anyone can find evidence of the ghostwriting of "Tomb Robbers Notes", I promise to reward him 10 million yuan."
Hong Kong dollars.”
These words were more important than any explanation, and "Sing Tao Daily" immediately had nothing to say. Then "Oriental Daily" broke the news again, saying that Kang Jianfei's new book "Tomb Raiders Notes" was originally a script, which Kang Jianfei planned to film this year.
An annual blockbuster that was later expanded into a novel.
Now Kang Jianfei's book and movie fans are happy. Not only do they have books to read, but there are also blockbusters to look forward to.
Even before "Tomb Robbery Notes" was officially serialized, it was already making waves in newspapers. The number of subscriptions to "Oriental Daily" increased significantly within a few days.
Ni Jianchang was obviously still brooding about his son's incident last year. When he hosted a talk show on TVB, Huang Zhan and Cai Lam mentioned the topic of Kang Jianfei's new book. Ni Jiang responded with great disdain: "Kang Jianfei's method of making movies is
Very good, but writing novels may expose his true identity. I heard that his cousin "Looking for Qin" was ghostwritten, and "The Clouds and Rains" was ghostwritten by Huang Yi. At that time, he was not as busy as he is now, and he had a lot of time to write novels.
, asking someone to write as a ghostwriter can only mean that his novels are too bad. Some people can just be directors honestly, but they have to come here to pretend to be writers and write novels. Is it true that cats and dogs can publish books?"
Ni Jiang criticized Kang Jianfei on a talk show, and the news quickly appeared in the entertainment pages of major newspapers.
Kang Jianfei did not express his position on this, but many of his young fans cursed Ni Jiam, and Ni Jiam's fans immediately scolded him back, so that sometimes fans of the two could be seen arguing on the street with their faces flushed.
In fact, many people are both fans of Ni Ji's books and fans of Kang Jianfei's movies, and they all hold a non-supportive attitude in this debate.
Nine days passed by in a flash, but for those die-hard fans who were waiting to read Kang Jianfei's new book, the days passed like years. Watching the countdown of the new book series in "Oriental Daily" every day felt like the time passed extremely long.
To be honest, there are not many pure fans of Kang Jianfei's books left. Most of the fans who are waiting for his new book are fans of Kang Jianfei's movies. Curious, Aiwu and Wujia couldn't wait to know the content of Kang Jianfei's new book. Some people even wanted to know the content of Kang Jianfei's new book.
I specifically went to book Oriental Daily for half a year.
On March 1, 1989, "Tomb Raiders Notes" was officially serialized for the first time in "Oriental Daily".
Ming Pao Newspaper Group Building.
The secretary made Jin Yong a cup of coffee, brought a large pile of newspapers, and then closed the door and left the office.
Jin Yong first read the current affairs pages of several major newspapers one by one. The important press secretaries had already marked them for him.
After spending more than an hour reading all the current political news, Jin Yong was in a pretty good mood. Today, only one newspaper wrote an article scolding him. It seems that the turmoil caused by that incident is about to subside.
In addition to his status as a novelist and newspaper owner, Jin Yong is now also a politician. Last year, the "double investigation bill" drafted by him and another committee member surnamed Cha was passed by the central government. This bill has been in use since the return of Hong Kong. However,
Because the bill is too conservative, it is considered by the democratic parties to have hindered Hong Kong's democratic process, and that Jin Yong is a lackey of the mainland government.
After Jin Yong returned to Hong Kong from the capital, not only did people scold him in newspapers from time to time, but they also organized demonstrations to oppose the bill proposed by Jin Yong. Jin Yong even received threatening letters because of this.
After reading a bunch of current affairs news, Jin Yong casually opened the entertainment section of a newspaper to relieve his boredom, and suddenly turned to the page of "Tomb Robbers Notes".
"Eh..." After casually reading a few paragraphs of the novel, Jin Yong found that this novel seemed different from other martial arts and science fiction novels, so he immersed himself in reading it seriously. r1152
