Chapter 1922 1924 [Old Movie]
Xiang Nan then went to see Wang Jing again.
In the new year, Real Kung Fu Films is still making considerable profits.
Moreover, because it is responsible for contacting Universal Pictures, using Universal Pictures' distribution network to distribute Xiangjiang films to all over the world. As a middleman, it naturally has oil and water to fish for.
Moreover, all the film companies in Hong Kong also hope that their films can go out of Hong Kong and go to more markets to make money. Therefore, Real Kung Fu Films has actually become a big player in the Hong Kong film field.
The strength is stronger than Golden Harvest, Yongsheng Entertainment which took over from Debao, Metropolis after the Shaw Brothers restart, and Oriental Entertainment after the disintegration of New Art City.
In 1991, the three big bosses of New Art City, Mai Jia, Ishida, and Huang Baiming, were disbanded due to the uneven distribution of benefits. Mai Jia and Ishida devoted themselves to the stock market and real estate market, while Huang Baiming established Oriental Entertainment to continue his film career.
At this time, Lei Juekun, the old proprietor of New Art City, had also passed away, and his son had no interest in the film industry, so he sublet the theater in his hand to Huang Baiming, which made him a big name in the Hong Kong film industry.
In 1992, Debao Film Company also announced its closure. The reason is that Pan Dickson took a stake in Debao Company mainly to pursue Yang Ziqiong, and secondly to advertise the luxury goods he represented.
Now he and Yang Ziqiong have divorced, and his Dickson Department Store is already the largest and most profitable luxury goods agency in Xiangjiang.
The so-called musk fragrance, naturally there is no need to use movies to promote it. So in 1992, he also announced his graduation. The Xiang Brothers' Yongsheng Entertainment took over Debao Cinemas. However, the Xiang Brothers don't have that much money, so they share the same theater with the Metropolis.
Shaw Brothers closed its doors in 1985, and made a comeback in the next year under the name of Metropolis Pictures, and released some blockbuster films, such as "The Judge", "Brothers Collide", "Ji Gong", "Mr. Crashing Evil" etc.
…
"Director Wang, I suggest that you can buy more copies and films of Xiangjiang's old movies in the future, and they can be restored and reissued as high-definition movies in the future." Xiang Nan reminded Wang Jingdao, "In this way, the scale of our film library will be increased, and those Old movies can also be reused, and the value can be further explored.”
The history of Xiangjiang movies has been decades. From the 1950s to the 1990s, countless wonderful and beautiful movies were born. Although some of the so-called "Seven Days Fresh" are undoubtedly bad movies, a large part of them are classics.
For example, in the past, many films from MP & GI, Lingguang, Xingfa Films, etc. had caused a sensation. In addition, in the 1970s and 1980s, Xiangjiang also had many film companies, and produced many influential works.
For example, "Dancing Ashes" co-directed by Xiao Fangfang and Liang Puzhi, which pioneered the Hong Kong movie groom trend; "Mad Robbery" directed by Xu Anhua and starring Zhao Yazhi;
These movies were once a sensation, but because of the poor management of the boss, the company went bankrupt early. Now I don't know if those films are still there, or if they can be rescued and brought back.
You must know that in the United States, old movies have long been a profitable business. Those film companies can make hundreds of millions of dollars a year by relying on old movies.
However, in Xiangjiang, the value of old movies has not been valued, so that many movies later can only find some fragments, which is a pity.
Wang Jing nodded upon hearing this.
He is also a loyal fan of old movies, and once made a film "Hardcover Brothers" to commemorate the Xiangjiang filmmakers in the 1960s.
On the one hand, his father, Wang Tianlin, was a director and made many old films in the 50s and 60s. Their family also has an indissoluble bond with movies;
On the one hand, he has also absorbed a lot of nutrition from old movies. Many stories and many funny plots are all absorbed by him from old movies.
Therefore, he respects the value of Xiangjiang's old films.
…
Xiang Nan then asked Wu Yongwei to cruise the river together.
Wu Yongwei participated in the Asian sister election in **, and although she didn’t make it to the top three, she still won the Best Photogenic Miss Award, and then signed with ATV to make her official debut. The first episode was "The Driver" in cooperation with Wu Yaohan.
In 1990, she married Weng Jiangpei, a partner of a well-known accounting firm in Xiangjiang. Weng Jiangpei was 50 years old at the time, 30 years older than Wu Yongwei, so this marriage caused a lot of criticism after it was announced.
Many citizens ridiculed Wu Yongwei for being blind to money and marrying for money with impure purposes, but the two still resisted the pressure and came together.
Unexpectedly, after the two got married, within half a month, Weng Jiangpei died suddenly of a myocardial infarction. Wu Yongwei was stigmatized as "Kefu", and the Weng family also kicked her out of the Weng Mansion, not letting her take away any of the family property.
So these years, Wu Yongwei has been fighting a property lawsuit with the Weng family. The lawsuit has been fought for several years, and it has not yet been resolved. However, all kinds of gossip news surrounding the lawsuit has become a hot topic in the city.
The reason why Xiang Nan fell in love with Wu Yongwei was mainly because he had seen "Silver Fox" in which she participated in that year.
She played Yan Ruyu in it, enchanting and enchanting, with ulterior motives, but with a trace of conscience. She is really charming and left a deep impression on Xiang Nan, so I just asked her to meet today.
…
"Miss Wu, nice to meet you~" Xiang Nan smiled and stretched out his hand.
"Mr. Ning, it's a pleasure to meet you." Wu Yongwei shook hands with him and said with a smile, "I never thought that a boss as big as you would actually ask me out."
"No matter how big the boss is, he is also a human being, and he has emotions and desires." Xiang Nan laughed.
"You are right." Wu Yongwei nodded, "Then you feel lonely these days, so you want me to accompany you?"
"I have this idea." Xiang Nan nodded, "Of course, if you don't want to, I won't force you. You can get off the boat now."
"If I don't want to, then I won't come." Wu Yongwei waved her hand and smiled.
The so-called Alluring Smile, Bai Meisheng, Liugong Fendai colorless.
This smiling face made Xiang Nan feel dazed.
Actually, in terms of appearance, Wu Yongwei is not considered a peerless beauty. Compared with Li Jiaxin, Guan Zhilin, Zheng Wenya, etc., they are all inferior.
But the charm of a beautiful woman is not only in appearance, but more importantly, style. If there is no style, no matter how beautiful a woman is, she is just a puppet. On the contrary, if you are good at style, ordinary little beauties can also have the charm of big beauties.
For example, Zhou Xun, who is not handsome, has a thin and dry body, and does not see much charm. But in "Painted Skin", he insisted on acting like a peerless beauty.
This is the style. And Wu Yongwei is undoubtedly a person in this way.
