Dreams of the Fragrant River

: Seven hundred and twenty-four [into the nineties]

Time has passed into the 1990s, and the 1980s are in the past tense. In the 1990s, Hong Kong people increasingly felt that the day of the return of Hong Kong was getting closer and closer. The topic of Hong Kong's return has once again sparked heated discussions, and more and more middle-class Hong Kong people have chosen to immigrate to the United Kingdom, the United States, and Canada.

In the final analysis, any political demands or foreign media's distorted propaganda are only secondary factors. The reason why the vast majority of Hong Kong people are afraid of returning is because the mainland is too poor. When a rich daughter returns to her poor family, it will be difficult for her to overcome that hurdle psychologically, and she is even more afraid that her family will swallow up her gold and silver jewelry and private money.

Because of the incident that happened in the mainland last year, Jin Yong was disheartened about his political career and announced that he would no longer be involved in politics. At the same time, he would no longer intervene in the daily management of Ming Pao Group, revealing his intention to sell Ming Pao.

As soon as this news came out, many newspaper industry bosses were staring at the piece of fat. The sales volume of Ming Pao was the first in Hong Kong.

Many newspapers and magazines purchased by Kang Jianfei have been integrated by this time, and they have been combined with the original "Painting King" pictorial, "Phoenix TV Weekly" and other publications to form the Oriental Media Group.

Oriental Media is a subsidiary of Oriental Culture and Entertainment Group, mainly engaged in paper media. Phoenix TV, DreamWorks, Dark Horse Comics and other companies can provide publications and news resources for Oriental Media's publications, and these publications can also be publicized and promoted by major companies.

Oriental Media Group will soon set up its own publishing house, imitating the model of Kadokawa Bookstore in Japan. In the future, the literary and comic works of the publishing house can be transformed into movies, TV series and cartoons. Similarly, hot-selling movies, TV series and animations can also be adapted into novels and comics to maximize profits.

In the past Christmas of 1989, Gao Zhisen, who started his own company with the support of Xinbao, was unlucky again. He personally served as the director and screenwriter, and invited Alan Tam and Wen Bixia as the protagonists of "A Man and a Woman". With the two protagonists Its fame, the box office is worth over 10 million.

The movie that DreamWorks is showing at the Christmas stall is "Royal Sister 4" starring Yang Liqing. "Royal Senior Sister" is a classic series of DreamWorks movies created by Kang Jianfei. It also triggered a boom in police and gangster movies and senior sister movies. After three consecutive films, the box office declined, so it was shelved and not continued.

DreamWorks restarted the shooting plan of "Royal Sister", and the news also caused heated discussions when the news first came out. At first, the audience felt a little tired of watching 3 films in a row, but now they miss it after a few years, and have high expectations for the yet-to-be-released "Royal Sister 4".

As for the replacement of the heroine by Lin Qingxia to Yang Liqing, it is also a topic of discussion among countless old fans. For the so-called nostalgia, most people tend to use the original actors. Although Yang Liqing was eye-catching in the previous "Overlord Flower" and won the love of many audiences, she is still too far from Lin Qingxia.

So Yang Liqing lay down inexplicably, and many fans who hoped for Lin Qingxia's comeback showed strong hostility to Yang Liqing, who starred in "Royal Senior Sister 4". The gossip media also came out to join in the fun at this time, trying to use this wind to sell tabloids, saying that Yang Liqing became the heroine only by sleeping with the director.

Don't complain that everyone easily believes in gossip news. It is really fierce competition in Hong Kong's entertainment industry today, and Yang Liqing's emergence is too fast. From a young actor in Taiwan, he went to Hong Kong to play the female No. 2 in "The Overlord", and then played the heroine in "Royal Sister 4". Even a fool would not believe that there is nothing tricky in it.

The director of "Royal Sister 4" is Zhong Zhiwen. Because of the scandal, he also had a quarrel with his wife, and finally even got to the point of divorce.

Only then did Yang Liqing have to stand up and make a statement. She was discovered by Kang Jianfei in Taiwan, and it was Kang Jianfei's meaning to appear in "Overlord Flower" and "Royal Senior Sister 4".

Well, Zhong Zhiwen has finally cleared his suspicions, and Kang Jianfei has once again fallen into the scandal, but this time the heroine of the scandal has changed again. But at that time, Kang Jianfei was filming in the mainland, and it was none of his business if the Hong Kong side made a fuss.

Until "Royal Sister 4" was released on Christmas, there were still some old viewers who were still worried, and refused to watch the film because Lin Qingxia could not continue to be the heroine.

And those viewers who walked into the theater to watch "Royal Sister 4" were very satisfied with the movie. They found that Lin Qingxia and Yang Liqing did not play the same role. In "Royal Senior Sister 4", the policewoman played by Lin Qingxia has been transferred to the UK to work, and Yang Liqing plays a new young man who has just joined the police force.

Both the screenwriter and the director are of first-class standards, and Yang Liqing's body, face, and boxing skills are also very good. After the film was shown, the box office and word of mouth were excellent, and the old audience who had refused to watch the film because there was no Lin Qingxia could not resist the temptation to re-enter the cinema.

It's a pity that the schedule of "Royal Sister 4" collided with Cheng Long's "Miracle".

"Miracle" was claimed to be a kung fu blockbuster costing 70 million yuan when it was promoted. In fact, including the publicity expenses, this figure is not exaggerated at all. The actors who have a few lines or two in the film are all stars, or at least familiar old actors, and those actors are paid a lot of money.

The Christmas stalls gradually passed, and the time entered 1990.

After New Year's Day, New Year's films in major theaters were released one after another. "Royal Sister 4" and "Miracle" are the only two remaining Christmas films.

In mid-January, "Royal Sister 4" was finally released, with a box office of 21.88 million in Hong Kong. If it weren't for Cheng Long's "Miracle", "Royal Sister 4" would have even more box office. This is an extremely rare achievement, because the series "Royal Sister" is a female theme, and to a large extent relies on the heroine to support the scene, and Yang Liqing is just a newcomer who has only made two movies, she is not as good as Lin Qingxia Powerful aura.

Cheng Long's "Miracle" is still in the limelight, and it was not finished until the end of January, and the box office in this port was 35.09 million Hong Kong dollars.

Zou Wenhuai is naturally very happy. Hong Kong is the touchstone of the box office in Southeast Asia. With the box office performance of "Miracle" in Hong Kong, the movie's huge budget of 70 million can be fully recovered in Southeast Asia, Hong Kong and Taiwan markets, and the remaining revenue in other regions. Even if it is pure profit.

At the same time, Zou Wenhuai has another happy thing. The Hollywood blockbuster "Ninja Turtles" he invested in has been completed. And after the test screening, the response was good, and the North American distributor has reached an agreement with the theater to release the film in the spring of 1990.

In the films released in the new year, there was also a funny situation in which Hong Jinbao beat himself up. Hong Jinbao, who has had bad luck in the past two years, suddenly became popular in the New Year's gear. In the four New Year's films released by Princess Jin, Xinbao, Dongfang and Jiahe Cinemas, all the male leads were played by Hong Jinbao.

The show on Princess Jin's side is "Fugui Corps" directed by Zheng Zeshi. The producer is a new company co-founded by Zeng Zhiwei and Zheng Zeshi, and the gold screenwriter Huang Bingyao was specially brought in to write the script; Later, "Children in Troubled Times" directed by Teddy Robin and starring Hong Jinbao was shown; on Xinbao's side, "Fu Xing Weilong" directed and acted by Hong Jinbao and produced by Baoxiang Pictures was released.

As for DreamWorks, the screenplay is "Seven Little Fortunes" written and directed by Luo Qirui and Zhang Wanting, which is a rare cross-company collaborative film by DreamWorks in recent years.

During the period from New Year's Day to the Spring Festival, the leading films of the four major cinema chains in Hong Kong actually had the same actor, which surprised the cinema companies that arranged the films.

The audience was even more amused. Whichever movie theater they went to, the conductor recommended movies starring Hong Jinbao.

The media was even more astonished, saying that this year's New Year's gear belongs to Hong Jinbao. Some second- and third-tier little stars who don't know the truth really think that Hong Jinbao's four theaters are all-in-one, and Hong Jinbao's status is unprecedentedly high.

It has to be said that He Guanchang of Golden Harvest is a shrewd person. Originally, after Hong Jinbao cooperated with Xinbao, the relationship with Golden Harvest went further and further. But He Guanchang actually started to support Gao Lihong and asked Gao Lihong to blow a pillow to Hong Jinbao, and the cooperation between Hong Jinbao and Jiahe became closer again.

By the way, Hong Jinbao's legal wife at this time is a Korean, and Gao Lihong is in an extramarital affair with him, and what he claims is a master-apprentice relationship.

Hong Jinbao did not dare to praise Gao Lihong too much because of his fame and family. Now He Guanchang has taken action to support Gao Lihong, just to help him solve his worries, and Hong Jinbao naturally wants to reciprocate.

When Kang Jianfei saw Hong Jinbao starring in 4 new year films at the same time, he could only sigh: Brother Bao is also very hardworking, I am afraid he has been sleeping on the set for half a year.

As the Spring Festival is getting closer, the post-production special effects of UU Reading www.uukanshu.com's "Notes on Tomb Raiders" are also coming to an end. Afraid that the time would be too late, Kang Jianfei had to submit some samples of unfinished special effects for review. Although there were many violent scenes, they were still rated as "secondary films" by the review team. It can only be said that the censorship at this time is very broad, and after 20 years, "Notes on Tomb Raiders" will definitely belong to "three poles" or "level 2b". You must know that even Xing Ye's children's film "Changjiang No. 7" was rated "2*" by the judges in Hong Kong as unsuitable for children.

Although the special effects have not been completed, the publicity of "Tomb Notes" has already begun. Three rounds of publicity campaigns have been carried out since its launch. The overwhelming amount of advertising has scared countless small companies and directors in Hong Kong. .

Kang Jianfei's reason was that he had already spent so much money on making the movie anyway, so what's wrong with spending more money on advertising?

Although the Hong Kong film market is small, it has a demonstrative role in the Southeast Asian box office. When the distribution company negotiates the sharing agreement with the local theater chain, it will largely refer to the Hong Kong box office of the film.

With the ads flying all over the sky, the much-anticipated "Notes of Tomb Raiders" finally ushered in the premiere, and after the premiere, it was the last wave of publicity before the film was officially released. r1152
