"Jiahe DreamWorks join forces, deadly express triggers box office frenzy"
Just like a whirlwind blowing across Xiangjiang, the box office of "Deadly Express" express soared like a rocket.
In just one week, the cumulative box office of "Deadly Express" has reached 14.57 million, attracting a lot of surprises inside and outside Hong Kong.
The only regret is that the average attendance rate of "The Deadly Express" is rapidly declining, even at one point to 50%.
The main reason is that the Hong Kong audience base is too small, and the 41 cinemas are too dense, which has lowered the overall attendance rate.
After reducing the number of theaters released to 30, the attendance rate of "Deadly Express" quickly stabilized, increasing at a box office of millions per day.
Making movies really makes money!Ye Xueyan looked at the fans who were pouring into the theater outside the car window and couldn't help but say with emotion.
Kang Jianfei smiled and said: There are many movies that lose money, and more than ten film companies go bankrupt every year in Hong Kong.And this time I didn’t make it alone. Jiahe and the theater company have to get a share of it. In addition, the budget for this movie is high, no matter how good it sells in Hong Kong, it cannot recover the cost. It can only make money by relying on overseas box offices.
Ye Xueyan is just a literary young man who likes movies. He knows nothing about the filming and distribution of the movie. He asked in surprise: Didn’t the newspaper say that the box office of this movie must have exceeded 30 million?Why can't you recover the cost?
Kang Jianfei said: The shooting budget for "Deadly Express" is 50 million, plus nearly 2 million promotional expenses, the hospital and business will have to share more than 40% of the box office. How do you think you will recover the cost?
Ye Xueyan said in surprise: Isn’t there still a gap of more than 30 million?
Kang Jianfei nodded: Jackie Chan and Brigitte Lin have good influence in Japan, and Japan's box office will definitely make a fortune.
The two were chatting about the movie. Li Saifeng's father Li Qiming sat in the passenger seat and turned to them and said: The instant noodles produced by Kangle Food Factory can be shipped to the supply and marketing cooperatives, department stores and railway systems in Guangdong next week. Do you want to go to the factory to take a look?
Since the factory was built, Ye Xueyan has been busy opening up sales channels, and Kang Jianfei has even spent money and left the accountant to do the accounting. Neither of them has been to Shenzhen.
However, Li Qiming was the most active. After this guy had his career goals, he even threw his lover aside and ate and lived in the factory construction site. He was responsible for recruiting and training workers, which greatly shortened the factory's construction time.
I don't have to go, as long as I have money to make money.Kang Jianfei doesn't want to go back to Shenzhen. His current identity is the one who fled from Hong Kong there. It would be bad if he reveals his flaws when he returns to his hometown.
Ye Xueyan glanced at Gao Yahu who was looking at the car and said to Kang Jianfei: Next month, the leader will go to the south tour, I can help you contact me to see if we can add our factory to the leader's inspection route. You can serve as the factory manager to receive it.
Kang Jianfei waved his hands repeatedly and said: Forget it, he will definitely go to the newspaper when he meets the chief. I am afraid that he will offend the Taiwan authorities a lot.
Kang Jianfei said, suddenly looking at Li Qiming. Old Li could have missed his face, and local officials would definitely pay more attention.
I don't need it either.Li Qiming was shocked. He had long admired the leader and was quite respectful in his heart. He did not have much respect, and fear took up the big part.
Actually, this is really a good opportunity. Old Li would rather go there. Others can't see the leader even if they want to see him.
Ye Xueyan advised.
He himself must not come forward because he has invested hundreds of thousands of dollars in Kangle Food Company. This money is definitely a huge sum of money in mainland China. Ye Xueyan cannot explain clearly where he comes from.
Although the mainland is carrying out reform and opening up now, it is still very strict in many things. Some things can be done privately. Once it is put on the stage, even if Ye Xueyan is a high-ranking official, he will not be able to escape legal sanctions.
Because of this, in another time and space, Ye Xueping immigrated to Hong Kong with his wife and daughter in the 1980s, but it was not until the 1990s that he dared to open a company openly in his own name.
The three of them talked about the development plan of the food company again. Kang Jianfei and Li Qiming learned from Ye Xueyan the real purpose of the central leader's southern tour.
It turns out that since the reform and opening up, many areas in the south have been developing rapidly, and the people in some places and even the entire towns and cities have begun to do business, which has caused a series of problems.
Some people make a fortune, which naturally arouses jealousy from other people. The addition of various collective enterprises has damaged the vested interests of many people, so that officials and the people have a basis for opposing reform.
Coupled with the opposition from conservative officials and the deterioration of public security, the mainland has now set off a trend of reform reflection, and some even deliberately create horrifying public opinion that China wants to become capitalist.
In the second half of last year, some self-employed individuals in the south were confiscated, and those who hit the gun were even sentenced directly.
There is a very famous businessman who started to do small businesses quietly before the Cultural Revolution ended. He had already had tens of thousands of dollars during the reform and opening up, and then helped state-owned enterprises resell inventory goods. In an era when tens of millions of dollars were rare, this man had accumulated tens of millions of dollars in property.
This guy was naturally the target of local attacks, but he ran away early when he heard the wind, but his factory was directly confiscated.
According to his later recollection, during the years he was fleeing, he had been to a coal mine in Heilongjiang as far as he could...
It is precisely because local governments liquidate capitalists that many self-employed individuals who sell tea eggs are afraid to set up stalls. Some of the companies that have entered mainland investment have also been affected and closed down and withdrawn their investments, which greatly affected the in-depth development of reform and opening up.
Shenzhen has always been the forefront of reform. A slogan proposed by the local government two years ago was called: Time is money.
This sentence is nothing to be said now, but it caused great controversy at that time. Some newspapers even criticized Shenzhen officials for being materialistic and wanting to subvert the great communist system.
The central leader went directly to Shenzhen for inspection this southern tour. As long as the leader admitted the local reform achievements, he would give the reformists across the country a shot.
The reason why 1984 became the first year of China's company was precisely because of Deng Gong's southern tour that those trendsetters who are determined to start businesses were rushing to create their own private companies.
Li Qiming thought about it, and finally agreed and asked: Can you change Mr. Deng’s inspection route?
Ye Xueyan smiled and said: Of course, it cannot be changed. It is still possible to add a temporary inspection unit.However, the factory must cooperate with the inspection in advance, and you can go back and prepare a document and pass the review.
Kang Jianfei didn't care much about this. He asked Gao Yahu who was driving and said: Brother Gao, do you know any veterans who are good at it? I want to hire a few drivers and bodyguards.
Gao Yahu was still driving intently and asked: It is easy to hire a retired soldier. As for good skills, it is hard to say. Is there any age limit for the person Mr. Kang wants?
Kang Jianfei smiled and said: You should be under 40 years old, but don’t be too young, as young people are unsteady in doing things.The key is to be honest and be able to control your eyes and mouth.
Ye Xueyan interrupted: Isn’t it just a few retired soldiers? This is for me.
It was really easy to recruit retired soldiers from mainland China at this time. Last year, Mr. Deng proposed a 1 million disarmament plan, and the railway squads were collectively transferred to local areas.
However, these layoffs are the most ordinary soldiers, and few of them can meet Kang Jianfei's requirements.
Kang Jianfei believed in his abilities for the soldier introduced by Ye Xueyan, but he had no confidence in his loyalty. It would be awful if he took the opportunity to put his eyes and ears around him.
I have to say that no matter how much Kang Jianfei's mentality changes, it cannot change his doubts. He always feels that everyone in the world may deal with him.
Gao Yahu drove Kang Jianfei to Ye Xueyan's house. The little girl Ye Zijing ran over happily, holding Kang Jianfei's thighs and looking at him with wide eyes, obviously waiting for Kang Jianfei to take out the small gift again.
Su Yuanyuan came out with the washed apple. Ye Zipei didn't care about the eyes of others and sat directly next to Kang Jianfei to help her man peel the apple.
Since the two had an affair, Ye Zipei, the pretty widow who was originally serious and self-love, basically traveled to Hong Kong every one or two months, hoping to stay warm with Kang Jianfei for a night.
Li Qiming disliked Ye Zipei, the vixen, because his daughter Li Saifeng was also Kang Jianfei's lover, so he naturally had no good impression of his daughter's rival.
Kang Jianfei now has Feng Huáng TV Station, Oriental Dream Factory, Oriental Entertainment Company and Fengxing Records Company, and also has a film and television city under construction, as well as several buildings and some theaters purchased at a low price.
It is rumored that Kang Jianfei's net worth has exceeded 1 billion, and it has not relied on the funds absorbed by the stock market. He has become the youngest top rich man in Hong Kong.
Li Qiming believed that he had worked hard all his life and had tens of millions of assets over the end, so he admired Kang Jianfei, the rich man, and sent his daughter to hug him without shame.
Kang Jianfei is not married yet, and Li Qiming has the intention to marry his daughter to Kang Jianfei. No matter how many women there are around Kang Jianfei, as long as he is not married for a day, Li Qiming feels that his daughter still has a chance.
A Fei, I heard that your movie is selling well again?I haven't had time to go to the cinema yet.Ye Zipei cut a piece of apple and fed it affectionately into Kang Jianfei's mouth.
Kang Jianfei chewed the apple before he could speak, Su Yuanyuan couldn't wait to say: Zi Pei, that "Fatal Express" is really good. I went to the theater to watch it three times in a row.Jackie Chan has great kung fu, and he laughs so hard that his stomach hurts when fighting. Brigitte Lin and Sophie Marceau are both beautiful.Look at my hairstyle, I still do it like Sophie Marceau in the movie.
Ye Zipei said: I have watched Jackie Chan's movie "Drunk Boxing", which is really funny.
For the Hong Kong film industry, the release of "Deadly Express" is not just about being good-looking and selling.
The successful cooperation between the two largest film companies has brought a very delicate atmosphere to the major film companies that have always been confronting each other. Thanks to this, those independent film companies and young directors have a greater living space than before.
