Rebirth of the Great Entertainment Empire

…

In Xu Cun's office.

Seeing Xu Cun whose appearance had hardly changed from five years ago, Wu Yusen was filled with emotion!

Five years ago, it was when Wu Yusen was at his most high-spirited - that year, Fat Qian Han he directed won the second place in the annual box office of Hong Kong Films with a box office of 5 million Hong Kong dollars, so he became the most famous newcomer in Hong Kong that year director. What makes him most proud is that Xu Cun, who is now the number one person in Xiangjiang film and television industry, was his assistant director at that time!

In the following years, he directed Hello, Come Back at Night, The Great Evil Star and the Little Sister, Heroes, and Funny Times all achieved good box office, and he also relied on his These films became Hong Kong's first-rate directors.

However--

Flowers do not have a hundred days of redness, and people do not have a thousand days of happiness.

In 1982, he was ordered to compete for Golden Harvest's Lin Yazhen of Eight Colors and New Art City's Little Fear, but he lost nearly nine million Hong Kong dollars at the box office.

When filming Heroes Have No Tears the following year, he caused an actor to be shot by using live ammunition.

In addition, Golden Harvest found out that he directed the first work Funny Times after the establishment of New Art City under the name of Wu Shangfei.

These caused his Heroes Without Tears and him to be hidden by Jiahe.

Later, that is, at the beginning of this year, he joined New Art City - he thought that there would be a film to be filmed in New Art City, but he did not expect that he would be exiled to Taiwan area by New Art City, and spent all day in Two Tigers , The Laughing Craftsman and other far-fetched market comedies.

In this way, he has become a well-known poison at the box office, and some people even persuade him to retire, and some even ask him to go home and watch the video tape to see how other people make movies.

In this situation, desperate, he finally lowered his proud head and begged on the head of Xu Cun, who used to hang out with him.

Honestly--

If he hadn't been desperate, Wu Yusen would never have come to beg Xu Cun - as long as he thought of the scene when he nodded and bowed to Xu Cun who had bowed to him before, he couldn't help but retreat.

But nodding and bowing to Xu Cun is much better than just sinking in it, right?

So Wu Yusen came to Xu Cun.

...

He poured a glass of water for Wu Yusen himself, then Xu Cun looked at Wu Yusen and said, Director Wu, do you know how long I've been waiting for you?

Hearing Xu Cun's inexplicable words, Wu Yusen was taken aback! Immediately, Wu Yusen looked at Xu Cun with some puzzlement!

Xu Cun stretched out a finger and said: One year, a whole year, when I directed The True Colors of Heroes at the end of last year, I was thinking, if Director Wu was in DreamWorks, I wouldn't have to direct The True Colors of Heroes myself.

Xu Cun's words warmed Wu Yusen's heart - The True Colors of a Hero is the only movie in Hong Kong with a box office of over 40 million Hong Kong dollars so far, and it is also the highest-grossing movie in Hong Kong so far, and it is also known as the best. Xiangjiang Movies. Xu Cun said, ‘If Director Wu was in DreamWorks, I wouldn’t have to direct “The True Colors of Heroes” myself. ’, obviously saying that he, Wu Yusen, can also direct the movie The True Colors of a Hero. This is definitely a very high praise for a Xiangjiang director! In addition, Xu Cun said these words at this time, which also showed that Xu Cun meant to accept Wu Yusen. How can this not make Wu Yusen, who has already been dubbed a box office poison, feel hot?

Therefore, Wu Yusen, who took the water from Xu Cun, hesitated for a moment, then stood up from his seat, bowed to Xu Cun and said, Mr. Xu, please give me a bowl of rice!

Seeing Wu Yusen like this, Xu Cun hurried to Wu Yusen and pushed Wu Yusen back to his seat, and said at the same time: If Director Wu didn't give Xu Cun a chance back then, I might not be where I am today. If you do this, Zhe Sha Me!

After Wu Yusen sat down, Xu Cun sat back where he was, and said: I won't talk nonsense, director Wu, come over, DreamWorks will open the sequel of The True Colors of Heroes, and you will be the sequel of The True Colors of Heroes The director of True Tomorrow sequel is also co-created by you and the screenwriter of DreamWorks, and the behind-the-scenes personnel and cast are all selected by you. All in all, the sequel to True Tomorrow is entirely your responsibility.

As soon as Xu Cun's words came out of his mouth, Wu Yusen subconsciously said, I will be in charge of the sequel of The True Colors of Heroes?

Xu Cun looked at Wu Yusen and said, Did I not speak clearly enough?

Wu Yusen quickly shook his head and said, No! No! It's just that The True Colors of a Hero is a movie directed by you, Mr. Xu...

Xu Cun interrupted Wu Yusen with a smile: I have a very bad habit, I don't like directing the same type of movies, and I have a lot of things to do, it's getting harder and harder to direct movies with peace of mind, so I still put my The limited time should be spent on discovering new types of movies.

After hearing what Xu Cun said, Wu Yusen was overjoyed, but at the same time, he couldn't help but have infinite admiration for Xu Cun, who is committed to innovation-now, Wu Yusen finally knows why Xu Cun was able to direct Happy Ghost and Zombie Mr, The Royal Sister, ET, Home Alone, Ghost Love, God of Gamblers, The True Colors of Heroes, Back to the Future and other excellent movies.

...

DreamWorks Cinemas and Shuangnan Cinemas are each other’s back-up cinemas, which has both advantages and disadvantages for DreamWorks.

Take the release of Back to the Future this time as an example: Without the support of Shuangnan Cinemas, Back to the Future would not have achieved a box office of more than 36 million Hong Kong dollars in Hong Kong, nor would Owl and Little Fei Elephant and Merry Christmas are firmly under their feet.

but--

DreamWorks can't use Shuangnan Cinemas in vain-during Christmas, Shuangnan Cinemas screened Back to the Future without reservation. In return, during the Lunar New Year holiday, DreamWorks Cinemas had to show Yindu's Shaolin Boy. In other words, Dreamworks had to withdraw from this year's Lunar New Year war, and stand in the auditorium to watch Golden Harvest, New Art City, and Yindu Three Kingdoms contend for hegemony.

For DreamWorks, this will definitely bring a certain loss-DreamWorks is not without good movies. Mr. Zombie 3 produced by Lin Zhengying at a cost of 40 million Hong Kong dollars is fully qualified to compete with Best Partner Queen's Secret Order, Shaolin Boy and Teppanyaki are a showdown, and they are also qualified to gain a matching reputation in the Lunar New Year file, and then go overseas to attract money, but because there are no theaters, Mr. Zombie 3 cannot be shown in this prime time. field.

This is also one of the reasons why Xu Cun wants to buy Shaw Cinemas—even if DreamWorks Cinemas has half of Shaw Cinemas, Xu Cun does not need to borrow theaters from Shuangnan Cinemas, and he does not need to stop at the Lunar New Year stall. I watched the fun from the sidelines.

but--

It is not to say that DreamWorks really has nothing to do during the Lunar New Year festival—with the full cooperation of local governments, DreamWorks’ 25 movie theaters in the Mainland are ready for use. In other words, during the Spring Festival, Dao Ma Dan and ET can be screened in the mainland.
