With the death of Bruce Lee, Hong Kong's kung fu superstars have been in a vacuum for a long time. During this period, the Hong Kong film industry has found countless people to take over Bruce Lee's position. In the end, it has been proved that there is only one Bruce Lee in Hong Kong, and there is only one Bruce Lee in the world.
A Bruce Lee.
Another dragon that has emerged in Hong Kong's film industry in recent years is Cheng Long. With several blockbuster movies, Cheng Long has been infinitely close to Bruce Lee's position, but it always feels like there is still a little distance.
.
But even so, Cheng Long is already the movie star with the most box office appeal in Hong Kong. If Wu Jianye wanted to be safe, it would be most appropriate to make a movie about Cheng Long. However, in 1979, Jiahe
After paying a high price, Cheng Long was brought from Luo Wei Film and Television to Jiahe. Now Cheng Long is a golden signature of Jiahe. Last year, he even went to Hollywood for exhibitions and was not loaned out at all.
Besides Cheng Long, another Kung Fu superstar in Hong Kong was Hung Kam-po, who was later called the most flexible man in the entire international film industry.
Since Cheng Long joined Jiahe, he has shone brightly and taken away a lot of the glory of his senior brother. Although the two senior brothers will not turn against each other because of this, there is definitely a secret rivalry.
After Hong Jinbao received the call from Fengge Entertainment, he thought for a long time and could not remember when Hong Kong had such a number one entertainment company.
"Brother? What's wrong?" Hong Jinbao's younger brother Yuan Biao asked with a dazed look as his senior brother hung up the phone.
"Have you ever heard of Fengge Entertainment?" Hung Kam-bao asked.
"Feng Ge? Never heard of it..." Yuan Biao shook his head, then suddenly remembered something and said: "By the way, I remembered it. There was an advertisement in Ming Pao yesterday, and it was Feng Ge Entertainment Company.
Advertising for staff!”
"So it's a new company? Who's the boss?" Hong Jinbao is a famous child star in Hong Kong. Almost every film company in Hong Kong knows that. Even if someone establishes a new film company, he can get wind of it in advance. Now suddenly
There is a so-called Fengge Entertainment, I have never heard that person mention it.
"I'm not sure. I haven't heard of anyone starting a new business. Could it be that club again? It's easy to make money by watching movies, and they want to come in and get some water?" Yuan Biao shook his head and continued to ask: "Brother, they
Why are you calling me?"
"I don't know, the phone call just said that their boss wants to invite me to the peninsula for tea!" Hong Jinbao was also confused.
"Senior brother, do you want to take a few more people with you?" Yuan Biao asked.
It is said that the film industry in Hong Kong was severely invaded by societies in the 1990s. In fact, it was even more serious in the 1980s, and even more rampant than in the 1990s. However, the information in the 1980s was not as advanced, so people
A more chaotic illusion of the nineties.
"No, the other party's tone doesn't sound like a corporate company, and if it was a corporate company, they wouldn't have made an appointment on the Peninsula!" Hong Jinbao shook his head and said.
Yuan Biao smiled, "That's true. If it were a corporate company, they probably wouldn't even make a call and would just send someone over!"
"Are you going then?" Yuan Biao asked again.
"Go and sit down, I want to see what kind of company Fengge Entertainment is." Hong Jinbao said with a smile.
Although in Hong Kong and even the entire domestic film industry in later generations, Cheng Long is called the eldest brother, in fact, in the earliest days, Hong Jinbao was the real eldest brother in the Hong Kong film industry.
The position of this eldest brother is not only due to his seniority, he also has the famous Hong family class under his command. More importantly, this eldest brother is also very smooth in dealing with people and can handle everything.
Later, when filming "Train to Fortune", most of the crew in Hong Kong stopped working because all the actors came to guest star in his movie.
Its influence is evident.
If someone travels back to Hong Kong in the 1980s and wants to get involved in the entertainment industry in Hong Kong, in addition to signing up for TVB's artist training courses or working as a part-time job, he can also try his luck at the Peninsula Hotel.
Sir Shao, the top boss in Xiangjiang entertainment industry, has a private room here all year round. He also likes Peninsula’s afternoon tea, so he often comes here to sit. And Mr. Zou, Sir Shao’s arch-enemy, is trying to compete with Sir Shao.
, or whatever, I also like to come to the peninsula to sit and sit.
Because of these two big guys, many entertainment stars in Xiangjiang like to come here to try their luck. If you can get acquainted with these two big guys, it will really be a shortcut.
On the second day, Wu Jianye came to the peninsula early. He sat there and looked at the guests here. He did see a few familiar faces, but Wu Jianye didn't go there to ask for autographs or anything like a second-rate guy.
.
Soon he saw Hong Jinbao walking over under the guidance of the waiter.
Although Hong Jinbao was also very fat at this time, he was not as fat as later generations. Today's Hong Jinbao does not play more of the role of the eldest brother like later generations, but appears in a comedy role. He does not have such a domineering character, but the eldest brother
The style is still there.
"Wu Sheng, nice to meet you!" Hong Jinbao looked full of Jianghu aura.
"Brother Sanmao, you're welcome, please sit down!" Wu Jianye said in Cantonese. Wu Jianye has always been very proud of his language skills.
After the two sat down, Hong Jinbao asked the waiter for a cup of coffee and said with a smile: "With all due respect, Wu Sheng looks strange. He was not in the entertainment industry before, was he?"
Wu Jianye smiled: "Brother Sanmao has good eyesight. I really have never been exposed to the entertainment industry in Hong Kong before. Brother Sanmao can be said to be the first star in the entertainment industry in Xiangjiang that I have come into contact with."
"Haha, Mr. Wu is being polite. I wonder if Mr. Wu has any reason for inviting Mr. Hong this time?" Hong Jinbao asked straight to the point.
"I watched Brother San Mao's "Ghost Fighting" last year and admired it very much." Wu Jianye did not directly answer Hung Kam-bao's question, but mentioned "Ghost Fighting" last year, which Hung Jinbao wrote, directed, starred in, and served as the producer.
Hearing the other party say "Ghosts Fighting Ghosts", Hong Jinbao showed a reserved smile on his face. "Ghosts Fighting Ghosts" is his entrepreneurial work of Baohe Film Company. The box office exceeded 5 million, ranking first in the box office of Hong Kong movies last year.
The fourth place, as an entrepreneurial work, this movie can be regarded as a success.
Looking at the young man in his twenties in front of him, although he was wearing casual clothes, he knew from the style that he was not cheap. Looking at the other person's extraordinary demeanor, Hong Jinbao's first impression was that he should be a child of a big family.
.
Hong Jinbao went through it in his mind, and there was no big family in Xiangjiang with the surname Wu.
Is it an illegitimate child?
"Wu Sheng is too polite. It's just a casual meal."
The two chatted for a while, and Wu Jianye saw that the time was almost up before he revealed his purpose.
"This time I invited Brother Sanmao because I want to co-produce a movie with Brother Sanmao's Baohe Film Company!"
"I'm really sorry. I shouldn't have refused Mr. Wu's kindness, but Mr. Wu should also know that our Baohe Film Company was established together with Jiahe, and our company's movies are generally invested by Jiahe." Hong Jinbao
Declined politely.
In Hong Jinbao's view, Wu Jianye was just a playboy who wanted to get a share of the pie.
"Brother Sanmao misunderstood. When I approached Brother Sanmao this time, it was not that I wanted to invest in Brother Sanmao's new movie, but that I happened to have a script in my hand that I wanted to use as a start-up for our Fengge Entertainment." Wu
Smile at night.
"Then I'm even more embarrassed. I've already accepted a movie from Jiahe, so I'm afraid I won't have time to shoot a movie from Mr. Wu's company!"
Hong Jinbao has been able to determine which family Wu Jianye must be from. Now watching the movie "Hong Kong Blooming", he wants to come in and make money. For such a person, Hong Jinbao does not mind getting to know him and forming a good relationship with him, but cooperation
?
What kind of good script can a playboy have in his hands?
"Brother Sanmao misunderstood again. Brother Sanmao has a lot of work. Of course I knew it. We are a small business and we invited Brother Sanmao without thinking about starting a business."
"What do you mean by Mr. Wu?"
"I know that Brother Sanmao's Hong family is full of talented people. This time I just want to control how many people Brother Sanmao borrows!"
