Liu Lianghua held a folder in his hand and pushed the door into Zou Wenhuai's office. However, he saw Zou Wenhuai discussing something with He Guanchang. When the two saw Liu Lianghua coming in, they immediately stopped the discussion.
Liu Lianghua nodded at He Guanchang, pulled over a stool and sat down and said: Brother Huai, it has been confirmed that Taiping Theater and Queen Theater are both Kang Jianfei's industries. In addition, he has two theaters in Kowloon under renovation.
He Guanchang smiled and said: Actually, it is not difficult to guess. Lu Haitong Building was changed to Oriental Building, and the Queen's Theater inside happened to join the New Era Theater. From this, we can see that 90% of Queen's Theater may be Kang Jianfei's industry.But what happened to Taiping Theater?
The two most famous luxury theaters in Hong Kong are Li Stage and Taiping Theater. Li Stage has been nominally owned by Shaw Brothers for more than ten years before Li Stage; and before Taiping Theater closed down, the Jiahe Cinema that was screened most of the time, such as the last movie released before the Taiping Theater closed, was "Modern Bodyguards" produced by Jiahe and starring the Xu brothers.
After the Taiping Cinema closed down, Zou Wenhuai was also thinking about this theater, but he could never let the owner of the theater, Yuan Bifu speak.
Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang couldn't figure out what method Kang Jianfei bought the Taiping Theater.
Liu Lianghua explained: I invited Yuan Bifu out for a meal at noon. She said that the reason why she sold Taiping Theater to Kang Jianfei was that Kang Jianfei promised to build a Hong Kong opera and film exhibition hall in the future.
Zou Wenhuai was stunned, then shook his head and smiled bitterly: It turns out that my niece is thinking, no wonder she refused to sell it at the beginning.
Zou Wenhuai and Yuan Bifu's father are old friends, so Yuan Bifu can be regarded as a son and nephew in front of Zou Wenhuai.
Liu Lianghua asked: Will we go to tomorrow’s Academy Awards ceremony?
Go, why don’t you go?Let's join in the grand event.Zou Wenhuai said with a smile.
Liu Lianghua said: But this year's Golden Star Awards are hosted by Feng Huáng TV Station, and the venue is also located in Taiping Theater. You can tell at a glance that it is Kang Jianfei operating it.
He Guanchang shook his head and said: The selection of the Golden Star Award should be considered fair. Kang Jianfei can't control more than 200 journalists and judges from several countries.Moreover, with Mr. Pan from Ming Pao as the supervisor, his character is still trustworthy.
Zou Wenhuai agreed: Yes, if you don’t go, you will show your timidity.But we can't let Kang Jianfei be too proud. Ahua, please attend on my behalf tomorrow, Guanchang and I won't go.
Liu Lianghua nodded and said: OK, but our "Plan A" may not win the grand prize. Many of the reporters and judges are film critics, and they should be more inclined to the artistic nature of the movie.
The influence of the Academy Awards is not great, and it doesn’t matter whether they win the Academy Awards or not. Zou Wenhuai didn’t take the Hong Kong Academy Awards seriously, but asked He Guanchang, “Is Luo Wei’s film “Dragon and Tiger Leap” gone?”
"Dragon and Tiger Leap" is also known as "Laughing Fist 2", which is a super bad movie that Luo Wei saw Jackie Chan's "The Water Police Eagle" sold well in the Spring Festival, re-edited the useless clips of "Laughing Fist Technique" and then received the super bad movie released in Princess Theater.
It has to be said that Jackie Chan’s box office appeal is still very strong. "Dragon and Tiger Leap" is promoting the title of Jackie Chan, and the box office on the first day almost exceeded 1 million.
However, after watching it, the audience cursed because the plot of this movie was not right, especially the last fighting scene, which was exactly the same as the "Smiling Fist" in the past.
But even so, the movie was released in Princess Jin's theater for 6 days before it was released, and it actually sold for 2.73 million yuan.
He Guanchang smiled and said: That movie was painted yesterday, and Luo Wei lost all the reputation he had saved before.
Luo Wei is Liu Lianghua's ex-husband and a general under Zou Wenhuai. When Boss Zou got into an employee's wife, it was a shameful past.
However, this matter is not very taboo within Jiahe, mainly because Luo Wei's reputation is too bad.
Not only did his wife Liu Lianghua cuckold him, but his son Luo Dawei was also working under Zou Wenhuai and was abandoned by his wife and son at the same time. It is conceivable how poor this person is.
When talking about his ex-husband, Liu Lianghua was not embarrassed at all and sneered: Does he still have a reputation to lose?However, this time he even used the trick of renovating the old film. I think his savings have been squandered and he is just trying to cheat money to live.
Luo Wei is not worth mentioning, but Kang Jianfei, the movie "The Little Imperial Household" is really a masterpiece.
Zou Wenhuai smiled and said, "I asked Mr. Ryder of 20th Century Fox for inquiries. What the newspaper said was true."A movie that took 11 days to make and invest less than 3 million US dollars was sold for 1.8 billion yuan in North America alone, and even sold for tens of millions of copyrights. Kang Jianfei earned at least over 100 million US dollars.
Not to mention the strength of the family, just by personal wealth, over 100 million US dollars can already rank among the top 30 among Hong Kong rich people.
Although Zou Wenhuai is a tycoon in the film industry, he is focused on making movies and his personal net worth is only more than HK$200 million.
Liu Lianghua said astonished: No wonder he bought a lot of money by buying a theater with great fanfare.
He Guanchang analyzed: Now the entire Hong Kong film industry is in decline and is about to stop production, and may stop production one day; New Art City has more progress and lacks its foundation, and will collapse immediately as long as internal chaos is in chaos; only Kang Jianfei is the most powerful, he made a big move before the New Year, and began to integrate the artist resources of TV stations, film companies and record companies, and has a theater chain as a backing. At most, it will be full of wings in one or two years, and will inevitably become the leader of the Hong Kong film and television industry.
The smile on Zou Wenhuai's face also disappeared. He was also paying attention to the major changes in Kang Jianfei's industries during this period, and realized that Kang Jianfei was carrying out separation of production and broadcasting and reforming the entertainment brokerage system at the same time.
Once Kang Jianfei's reform was successful, the energy formed by several companies was enough to look down on Xiangjiang, but Zou Wenhuai could only watch.
……
Zou Wenhuai can still sit on Diaoyutai to watch the show, but Run Run Shaw's film company and theater company are getting worse and worse.
In parallel space, when Hong Kong movies were at its peak, there were five large theaters in Hong Kong.
But the more theaters, the better, because the Hong Kong market is too narrow. Once there are more theaters, more film sources are needed to support it.
Under the influence of supply and demand relations, a large number of bad movies that are rushing to shoot will be released to meet the film source needs of several theaters.
This is why Zheng Yuling took on nine dramas at the same time and ran back and forth between nine crews.
Once a bad movie is a disaster and you can make money by making a random movie, the creative style of the film industry will change.
Blindly following the trend and inflicting production consumes a large amount of film and television resources, seriously destroying the creative enthusiasm of film workers. In addition, various overseas investments have joined, many people have the mentality of making bad movies and leaving, which has led to a serious decline in the overall quality of Hong Kong films.
Hong Kong films have two super prosperous periods. The first period is in the 1960s. At that time, Taiwanese films had not yet risen and the mainland was in a state of closure. Hong Kong films became the well-deserved overlord of the entire East Asia.
However, the Cold War became more and more intense, and Nanyang became the hardest hit area for cultural anti-communism. Indonesia's anti-China was only the most intense manifestation, and even Malaysia and Singapore were excluding Chinese culture.
Hong Kong movies are also Chinese-language movies. Under this impact, countless film companies went bankrupt within a few years, and the number of theaters in Hong Kong dropped rapidly by half, and was then surpassed by Taiwanese movies.
The second period of prosperity for Hong Kong films was in the 1980s, commonly known as the Golden Decade in the industry.
Hong Kong films in the past decade are not inferior to Hollywood films in terms of commerciality, entertainment and artistic nature, and in the past decade, the filmmakers' creative enthusiasm is also the most high.
In the mid-to-late 1980s, it took an average of 40 days to make a comedy, which was definitely carefully produced. In the shoddy 1990s, a Hong Kong comedy could be filmed in 10 days.
When five theaters appeared in Hong Kong, many knowledgeable people were calling for the reduction of theaters and pay attention to the quality of the film. Who cares about these things when pursuing interests?
(The emergence of five theater chains in Hong Kong was the result of the market's profit-seeking, which later led to the decline of Hong Kong films and major theater chains went bankrupt one after another, which was a full reflection of the principle of market leverage.)
After the increase in theaters, it will not only lead to a decline in the overall quality of Hong Kong films, but also a more direct consequence is to dilute the number of viewers in each cinema, which will greatly reduce the average income of each cinema.
Kang Jianfei created a new era theater chain at the beginning of the golden decade of Hong Kong films, which made the four theater chains in Hong Kong, Shaw Brothers, Jiahe, Princess Jin, and Yindu Cinemas, which are now in the new era.
The impact of the New Era theater chain was not very big when it was just established, but it has been six months since its establishment. Especially after several movies released, the evil consequences of the four large theater chains at the same time were immediately revealed.
After the Spring Festival, as the audience was separated by several theaters, the number of viewers on Shaw Brothers theaters, which were not attractive enough, plummeted and had already lost to an unbearable level.
When the video was not released, it would be useless to do anything about Run Run Shaw's remedy.
The high-profile "Interstellar Blunt" was released only two days after it was released. In addition, the serious losses of Shaw Cinemas now have led to the idea of stopping Shaw's production. The birth of this idea was two years earlier than in the original time and space.
Unlike Run Run Shaw who is struggling, Hong Kong's film industry is booming like a blowout. Almost every few days a new film company opens, and various films of varying quality are produced like industrial assembly lines.
Not to mention the quality of these movies, just judging by the number of films produced, Hong Kong movies at this time were at least comparable to those in 1986.
The reason is that, first, major theaters have gradually cancelled the bottom-up system, reducing the film risks of independent production companies; second, four theaters are united together, and a Yindu theater chain with soy sauce. The demand for film sources brought by several theaters has stimulated the surge in Hong Kong film production from the market supply and demand relationship.
No one is worried about this. All Hong Kong filmmakers only regard this as a sign of the rise of Hong Kong films.The media even cheered, saying that Hong Kong has become a true Oriental Hollywood.
When Kang Jianfei returned to Hong Kong, he was also surprised to see the number of films released in major theaters in early March.Even as a time traveler, Kang Jianfei could not tell whether this change was good or bad.
Liu Lianghua nodded at He Guanchang, pulled over a stool and sat down and said: Brother Huai, it has been confirmed that Taiping Theater and Queen Theater are both Kang Jianfei's industries. In addition, he has two theaters in Kowloon under renovation.
