Chapter 121 "New Wulongyuan" is released
The old man surnamed Wang gave up, but there are many people who want to cause trouble for Liu Hongmin.
Without Xiyuan's intervention this time, many people thought that Xiyuan acquiesced to their actions, so they became more and more rampant.
Professor Tao and Ms. Chu are very worried about this, fearing that Liu Hongmin will be involved in this public opinion storm.
Ms. Chu has been paying close attention to Liu Hongmin's situation during this period. "New Year's Day is coming soon. "New Wulongyuan" should be released, right? Why not let him go to Xiangjiang?"
Professor Tao nodded, "Okay, I'll tell him tomorrow."
Liu Hongmin was reluctant to hide out. But Professor Tao is right. As the boss, he still needs to attend the premiere of "New Oolong Yuan".
"You haven't seen your girlfriend in a few months, so you are taking advantage of the diagnosis time to relax. However, please remember to take some time and don't throw away the matters represented by the names."
Liu Hongmin nodded. , after saying goodbye to Professor Tao, he packed up his things and rushed to Xiangjiang with Chen Yu.
Lan Jieying happened to be fine, so he went to pick up the plane with Zou Shifang.
"My dear, I miss you so much!"
Lan Jieying threw herself directly into Liu Hongmin's arms, "Can you not go back?"
Liu Hongmin said with a smile: "Then what? Okay? My parents are still in the capital!"
Lan Jieying pouted, but didn't bother.
The four returned to the company, and Chen Yu went to arrange the hotel. Liu Hongmin took Lan Jieying to a meeting with Zou Shifang and Wang Yaowei.
“Because of the success of "The Boy in the Laughing Forest", theaters gave us high incentives to film the film. During this period, we invested millions in promotion fees and conducted street interviews. Many people are looking forward to " "New Wulong Yuan" is released, and I will definitely watch it. From this point of view, the Gemini strategy we launched has been successful."
"However, there is also a problem with the growth of Gemini. The joy is gradually fading. It might not be a good idea to let them do comedy again."
Liu Hongmin tapped her thigh a few times, "What about TV dramas?"
< br>Zou Shifang was stunned, "We are a film company."
Liu Hongmin asked with a smile: "Can't film companies make TV series?"
Wang Yaowei smiled: "Of course, but film companies generally look down on TV series. Compared with the big screen, the quality of the small screen is indeed not high enough."
Liu Hongmin waved his hand, "What we need to do now To maintain the popularity of Gemini, if there is no good movie script, then we can make a TV series."
"Should we cooperate with RTV?"
"Not only RTV, we can also work with China Television. Cooperation. Using RTV’s shooting team, mainland scenes and actors, we will write a script.”
“You have a script?”
“I will write it down later. , find a few screenwriters and expand it."
"This is easy, there is no shortage of screenwriters in Hong Kong."
At this time, Lan Jieying said: "Three bosses, our company will take one year. Isn’t it too little to just make one movie? We all have too much free time, so it’s not an option to be in other companies’ movies!”
Zou Shifang looked at Liu Hongmin, your woman is in charge. one time.
Wang Yaowei felt that what Lan Jieying said made sense, "Mr. Liu, what Aying said is right. Our company has too few works. We can't just put all the money in the account to earn interest. Although every day Yuan is getting promoted, but compared with the income from making movies, it is still far behind, and Ah Ying and Ah Xing often have a lot of free time.”
"You blame me for this!" Liu Hongmin admitted his mistake.
"I didn't ask you to set up an editorial department. I'll hire a few screenwriters while I'm reviewing the script."
Wang Yaowei nodded, "I didn't pay attention to it before." The three of them discussed some simple matters. plan, and then dispersed.
At one past midnight on December 24, the cinema began to play "New Wulongyuan".
The main creative staff once again sat in the back row of the theater. Liu Hongmin glanced inside the theater and saw that the occupancy rate was 90%. For a midnight show, this attendance rate is already considered high.
As soon as the movie started, the theater was filled with laughter.
Like "The Boy in the Laughing Forest", Liu Hongmin still feels that it is not as good as the original version. Xu Xiaoming is indeed very good. The shortcomings of Gemini's declining sense of comedy are covered up by his shooting skills.
However, it is true that Gemini is no longer suitable for filming kung fu comedies and must transform.
After being polished in the past two years, Zhou Xingxing's acting skills are already very good. The Huang Mengmeng he played was even better than Zhang Weijian. More importantly, Zhou Xingxing's idol is Bruce Lee, and he has been learning martial arts since he made money. In terms of diligence and talent, Zhou Xingxing is top-notch.
Perhaps, the next movie can have Zhou Xingxing as the protagonist.
The Red Lemon played by Lam Jieying is a bit unsatisfactory. However, as a vase, Lan Jieying is very suitable.
"Hua Hua Hua——"
As the highlights played, the audience stood up, applauding and looking for the creative staff. When they saw Xu Xiaoming taking the leading actors on stage, they immediately shouted excitedly.
"Director Xu, the shooting was great!"
Liu Hongmin smiled when he saw this, and then walked out of the theater with Chen Yu.
"New Wulongyuan" is done!
Early the next morning, as soon as Liu Hongmin arrived at the company, Wang Yaowei came over with the box office statistics.
"The box office on the first day was 2 million, which is better than "The Boy in the Laughing Forest"."
Liu Hongmin nodded, "It seems that the one million promotional expenses were not wasted."
< br>
Wang Yaowei: "According to the first-day box office estimate, we can get at least 18 million at the box office this time."
"The more, the better!" Liu Hongmin said: "Leave the publicity to Brother Xiaoming, you The current task is to release it in theaters in Southeast Asia. Is there still no chance for it to be released in Green Island?”
“No, there is basically no hope in the past few years,” Wang Yaowei explained: “However, it is possible this time. There is a chance."
"Try your best! It's worth selling a little bit." Liu Hongmin doesn't have much hope for this. Yuehou has been uneasy in recent years. Fortunately, Yue Monkey is not fighting an all-out war, so people still need entertainment.
“By the way, let’s get in touch with the Thai side. Our next movie may be shot there.”
Next movie? Wang Yaowei immediately became energetic, "Mr. Liu, what kind of movie?"
"Suspense comedy."
Wang Yaowei was stunned, what type of movie is suspense comedy?
He wanted to ask more, but Liu Hongmin had already entered the office. When he wanted to follow him, he saw Liu Hongmin picking up a pen and starting to write. Seeing Liu Hongmin starting to create, Wang Yaowei immediately suppressed his curiosity.
The outline of "The Little Monk" that Liu Hongmin handed him yesterday was good and fast. I don’t know what he wrote today.
In the evening, Wang Yaowei deliberately got off work late. After Liu Hongmin finished writing, he immediately came over.
"Mr. Liu, have you finished writing?"
"Not yet!" Liu Hongmin waved the notebook at him, "I have to wait two days. I will show it to you when I finish writing. "
Wang Yaowei felt a little regretful. He glanced at the book and saw five words written on the cover - Chinatown Detective.
