Hong Kong Stubborn

On September 7th, "Liquid Duo" was finished, and the final box office result just reached 16 million Hong Kong dollars.

Among them, Snow Country Cinemas sold 10.8 million Hong Kong dollars in box office, while Xinbao Cinemas only won 5.2 million Hong Kong dollars in box office. In any case, the local release of Snow Knights Distribution Company was very successful. The box office results exceeded Sammo Hung's expectations. It is time to celebrate.

On September 10, the box office share of 5.12 million Hong Kong dollars that Baoxiang Pictures deserved was received smoothly. This is similar to the effect of Shang Yang Chengmen Limu. People in the circle are waiting to see this part of the advance payment, and the Snow Knight Film Distribution Company is finally qualified to select the source of the film.

The Snow Country Cinemas scored 60% of the box office and earned 6.48 million Hong Kong dollars. Xinbao Cinemas also has a 60% box office share, which is a business rule for cooperation with independent issuing companies, with revenue of 3.12 million Hong Kong dollars.

Snow White Knight released 8% of the box office in accordance with the box office results of "Pink Duo", with an income of 1.28 million Hong Kong dollars, plus a 10% publicity service fee of 40,000.

The Snow Knight issuance has to wait for nearly a month's billing period before it can get the box office share collected on its behalf. At this time, it paid 5.12 million Hong Kong dollars, plus the issuance cost.

The funds raised by Yang Dengkui have been put in place, small hot money raised in batches. For the single item of "Liquor Powder Duo", Taiwan's capital loaned 5.12 million Hong Kong dollars, which can get 5.5 million Hong Kong dollars back in less than a month, which is equivalent to a 7.5% interest in one month.

Baoxiang Pictures also handed over the distribution rights of "Pink Duo" to the foreign market to Snow Knight for distribution.

There is no box office grading discount in other markets, and 15% of the box office share is charged as the distribution fee, but the box office share can also be paid to the producer within 3 days.

Yang Dengkui is responsible for distribution in Taiwan, Japan and South Korea, and Hu Xin is responsible for distribution in Southeast Asia, Europe and the United States.

Of course, "Pink Duo" will only be released in Taiwan and Southeast Asia. Sammo Hung and Alan Tam are still very popular in Taiwan and Southeast Asia, but they are much worse in Japan and South Korea, and they are basically unknown in Europe and the United States.

The next film for "The Two Heroes" is "Ambition" produced by independent producer Yingfeng Film Company. It is directed by Chen Huimin and starred by Andy Lau and Wan Ziliang. The cast is good.

In view of the suspension of production of New Art City, Golden Princess Cinemas agreed to double-screen the film with Snow Country Cinemas this time. In fact, it was deliberately releasing the water to allow Snow White to release more films and occupy more funds.

One-third of the theaters of the Snow Country Cinemas line are still used to show "Sacred Gambling", and two-thirds of the theaters are used to show "Fighting and Ambition." "Sacred Gambler" and "Random Ambition" were drawn on September 26, and they were taken over by Luo Junyan's "Ransom Storm".

After "Ransom Storm" was drawn, the Snow Country Cinemas was considered to have ended its trial operation. After the official opening, the theater will be adjusted to the normal operating status of filming. At that time, there should be 10 own theaters on the Snow Country Theater.

"Sacred Gambling" currently has a box office of more than 35 million Hong Kong dollars, Snow Country Cinemas temporarily received 15.9 million, and Debao Cinemas temporarily received 19.3 million.

It should be known that the number of theaters in the Snow Country Cinema Line is nearly double that of the Debao Cinema Line, and the location of the franchised theaters is even more incomparable. This time the cinema chains began to become tense, and they were hurriedly planning how to stifle the momentum of the Xue Guo cinema line.

As a result, without waiting for other cinemas to start activities to attract audiences, Snow Country Cinemas has another wave of activities to give away freshly squeezed juices. The army sister is going to push the box office of "Sacred Gambling" to the 40 million Hong Kong dollar mark.

Moreover, the Snow White Knight Distribution Company only arranged for Zhou Xingchi, Zhang Min, Wu Junru, Wu Mengda and other major actors of "The Gambler" to debut at this time. With the popularity of the film, the popular leading actors walked around in various theaters of the Snow Country Cinema Line for social networking and brought a wave of movie viewing climaxes.

Luo Junyan is now completely ignoring nosy, concentrates on training boxing and footwork during the day, and goes home to accompany his wife at night.

On September 26, "Sacred Gambling" and "Yi Courage and Ambition" were drawn at the same time.

"Sacred Gambling" was shown on the Snow Country Cinemas for a week longer than the Debao Cinemas, and it was the attendance brought by the actors' live events. The final box office of "The Gambler" was 43.32 million Hong Kong dollars, breaking the Hong Kong box office record of "This Killer Is Not So Cold".

The Snow Country Cinemas line won 21.26 million of the box office and the screening revenue was 12.75 million Hong Kong dollars; Debao Cinemas won the box office of 22.06 million, and the revenue was 13.24 million. The box office and revenue sold by the two cinema lines were almost evenly divided.

Snow Knight is issued according to the minimum box office share ratio of 6%, with pre-tax income of 2.6 million Hong Kong dollars and publicity service fee income of 55,000.

On September 29, the producer, Snowman Century Entertainment, received a box office share of 14.73 million Hong Kong dollars for "The Holy Gambling". Luo Junyan became a director on a whim. Not only did he break the box office record of Xiangjiang, but his company also made a huge profit this time.

Taiwan capital lent the 14.73 million Hong Kong dollars, the return was 15.51 million Hong Kong dollars, and the monthly interest rate was 5.3%.

Supporting the production and release of high-quality films from Xiangjiang is a strategy determined by Luo Junyan. The higher the box office, the lower the release yield, and the producer's income is much higher.

Taiwan's capital is only jealous. Since it requires capital and returns, it has no right to make irresponsible remarks. If there is any problem with the box office payment, it is Luo Junyan who fights it himself, and the loss is often tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars.

The final box office of "Yi Dan Ambition" was more than 7.38 million Hong Kong dollars. The Snow Country Cinemas line won 3.16 million, with revenue of 1.9 million; the Golden Princess Cinemas line won 4.22 million, with an income of 2.53 million, and the gap in box office revenue is not very obvious.

The Snow Knight issuance is charged at a 10% box office share, with revenue of 740,000 Hong Kong dollars, and the publicity service fee has received 20,000 yuan.

Also on September 29, Yingfeng Film Company received a box office share of 2.21 million Hong Kong dollars.

The box office of "Yi Dan Ambitious" is not very satisfactory, it can be regarded as maintaining a situation of no loss or no profit. But being able to get back the box office share in advance has too much effect on the company's capital turnover, and new films can be launched immediately.

Taiwan Capital loaned 2.21 million Hong Kong dollars this time, and it was able to get back 2.44 million Hong Kong dollars within one month, and the monthly interest rate exceeded 10%.

There are always many inexplicable coincidences in the world, and certain fate is destined in the dark.

On September 27th, "Ransom Storm" was premiered on both the Snow Country Cinemas and Xinbao Cinemas. In the previous half month, Snow Knight Publishing has begun to hype the kidnapping case of the ten billionaire Wang Dehui in the newspapers. The police still cannot find the slightest clue to the kidnapping case, and all kinds of speculations are flying in the sky.

Luo Junyan did not attend the premiere of "Ransom Storm". Because sister army is going to give birth today, she has been pregnant for 40 weeks, which is already beyond the normal pregnancy cycle.

Luo Junyan was nervous, he was fidgeting in the corridor. If sister army is in danger, he would rather not have a child. Only Luo Shaotang and Luo Meizi, as well as sister army's three female guards, accompanied Luo Junyan in the hospital. These people were also very nervous by Luo Junyan.

At noon, what Luo Junyan worried about finally did not happen. Sister Army gave birth to twin sisters by caesarean section, and the mother and daughter were safe.

Luo Junyan didn't care about the child, holding sister army's hand, his eyes were red.

Sister Army smiled at Luo Junyan, with mixed feelings in her heart. Before she was 30, she had never thought that she would have two daughters. The man in front of her had brought too many changes to her life. She had been confused and hesitated about this change before, but at this moment she was only satisfied. .

The two little guys are not big, Luo Junyan hugged him, feeling as if he was holding two pieces of dough, soft and comfortable.

The names of the two daughters were discussed at home a long time ago. My sister is Luo Zhiqing and my sister is Luo Zhiyuan, fresh and sunny, and bright and beautiful Shuyuan.

Although Luo Junyan is still fighting fiercely with the entire entertainment industry, he cannot generalize in terms of personal relationships. Many friends such as Anita Mui, Luo Meiwei, Kwong Meiyun, Bai Anni, Sammo Hung, Jackie Chan, Chow Yun-fat, Stephen Chow, Leslie Cheung, Wang Jing, and many others still went to the hospital in person to congratulate Luo Junyan and his wife on having a sister flower.

In any case, with this opportunity, Luo Junyan's relationship with the celebrities in the circle has recovered a bit, at least he will not be out of touch with each other.

And some big executives of entertainment companies who have had intersections also sent people to send gifts. The distinction between public and private is clearly a must-have for businessmen. Fang Yihua also came to visit the army in person. After all, the personal relationship between two people is different from that of others.

What made people unexpected is that this time stars and entertainment industry bigwigs came to congratulate Luo Junyan and his wife for their happiness, which was reported by Dongfang Daily.

Immediately, news about Luo Junyan and sister army Xidehua appeared in major newspapers. The appearance of twin sisters directly drove the popularity and enthusiasm of Luo Junyan and his wife, and the attendance rate of "Ransom Storm" rose instantly.

Even if it was only an unexpected short-term effect, Luo Junyan said with a smile that the fortune of these two daughters did not lose to him, and it was probably his own fortune that was inexplicably rich.

Sister Army stayed in the hospital for a week before returning to her home for confinement. It was already October 6th, and "Sin City One: Champion of Ghosts and Ghosts" could not be dragged on any longer, otherwise Wang Xiaopang could fight him desperately.

In 1990, on the last day of September, Xinyicheng Pictures withdrew from the stage of the Xiangjiang Film Circle and officially ceased production.

This legendary film production company, born out of nowhere, has created many brilliant achievements in 10 years. Luo Junyan asked himself that Snowman Century Entertainment could never reach the height of the new art city, so he could only look up.

But as bright as fireworks, it is prosperous and decayed, and everything does not break or stand. The end of a domineering age may indicate that the Xiangjiang film market will enter the crowds and compete in the era of the film industry.

On October 10, Luo Junyan’s 27th birthday, the crew of "Sin City One: Fighter of Ghosts" officially started worshipping God.

The total budget for the production and promotion of this film is 5 million Hong Kong dollars. The best partner film company invested 1.5 million yuan, accounting for 30% of the investment, and Snowman Century Entertainment invested 3.5 million yuan, accounting for 70% of the investment.

Wang Jing will be the chief director, Luo Junyan will be the executive director, and Zou Zhaolong will be the action director. Wen Jun was appointed as the on-site producer, and Bian Sicong was still assisting Luo Meizi to grab the construction schedule for the four new theaters.

Wang Xiaopang usually takes a lot of diapers, but it does not mean that he is not good at taking positive films. It depends entirely on the needs of the market.

This "Sin City One: Champion of Gods and Ghosts" is a standard feature film with a complete plot and full characters. The deeper the connotation of the film, the better the results will be. Of course, Wang Xiaopang will not come up with a set of messy things.

It is a big problem to enter the Kowloon Walled City to shoot, and the underworld forces here have not been completely removed. In fact, the underground boxing rings are all ready-made. Although the government is now starting to demolish and relocate the boxing ring, the ring has been abandoned, but if you refurbish it, the effect is absolutely unstoppable.

Luo Junyan was asked to come forward with 14K, which also paid 200,000 Hong Kong dollars for protection. In short, the crew has to strengthen management after entering, and it really wants to cause some trouble, the delay in the shooting progress is small, and the casualties are large.

Luo Junyan has 7 fights in this film, and one of his opponents is a female. It is Oshima Yukari, a cold-blooded character wearing a half-mask.

The so-called underground boxing match is actually free fighting, which can also be called irregular fighting. The movements designed by Zou Zhaolong are simple and powerful, without fancy parts, which are closer to **** actual combat.

This film caused Luo Junyan to suffer. In actual shooting, it is impossible to control so accurately, and injuries are inevitable. All the actors who acted in the opposite scene with him had martial arts skills. An accidental collision might make him black and blue. This time Luo Junyan really fought his life.

This film is also the first film shot after the establishment of the best partner company. Wang Jing is extremely dedicated in the process of directing. He strives to show the real **** effect. Under Luo Junyan's suggestion, he minimizes the switching of the lens, but uses the camera angle to capture the battle scene, and presents the audience with a sense of sight throughout the process.

On October 24, "Ransom Storm" was drawn offline, and the final box office score was 30.52 million Hong Kong dollars.

The film’s box office score exceeded 30 million, thanks to Wang Dehui’s wife, Gong Xinru, who took the media to court. And after she watched "Ransom Storm", she suddenly wanted to investigate the relevant police officers, and she found out that a retired police chief, Zhong Weizheng, was one of the plotters behind the kidnapping case.

Although the meat ticket was still not recovered, and the participants in the kidnapping case all said that Wang Dehui was pushed into the high seas on the day of the kidnapping. However, the follow-up matters Snow Knight Publishing Company does not care. These are enough to stir up "Ransom Storm", and the attendance rate has increased significantly due to this wave of media heated discussions.

This time, Snow Country Cinemas pushed and screened the film with all its strength, and won a box office of more than 17.5 million Hong Kong dollars. However, Xinbao Cinemas blundered and only won a box office of 13 million Hong Kong dollars, not even the guaranteed box office of 15 million Hong Kong dollars.

Snowman Century Entertainment had to make up for the 1.2 million box office difference of Xinbao Cinemas. As a result, Snowman Century Entertainment could only recover HK$3.22 million from Xinbao Cinemas.

The distribution of Snow White Knight is not affected. The box office is more than 30 million, calculated at 6%, the issuance income is 1.83 million, and the publicity service fee is only 30,000.

On October 27th, Snowman Century Entertainment received a box office share of 9.17 million Hong Kong dollars. Even if it is its own production company, the issuing company must also advance the funds within 3 days.

At present, the production company has a total of 32 million Hong Kong dollars in its account, which is the most profitable production business.

The theaters seem to have high revenues, but in fact, maintaining theater operations and taxes have deducted most of them. If the actual net profit can be controlled at about 35% of the box office revenue, the management is already quite successful.

The franchised independent theaters will be drawn from the theaters, and the net profit is only a little more than 20% of the box office revenue. If you don’t join, you can’t get a good source of film, and the effect of independent promotion is not strong. If the film market is good, you can only recognize it.

After "Ransom Storm" was drawn, the Snow Country Cinema was temporarily closed to adjust internal equipment and improve staff training.

By November 4th, all four new theaters were completed, and the number of self-built theaters reached 10. Own theaters basically cover all the prosperous areas of Xiangjiang. At the same time, 3 independent theaters with good locations have been dug from Debao and Golden Princess Cinemas. The Snow Country Cinemas has taken shape under the circumstances of heavy investment and hot start.

On November 8, 1990, sister army returned to normal health and regained power in Xueguo Film Investment Company. With a scale of 17 theaters, the Snow Country Cinema Line officially went online on this day, achieving the goal of independent movie screening in the theaters ahead of schedule and becoming one of the giants in the Hong Kong cinema line market.
