Chapter 1104 The Movie of Three Brothers
Coming out of the screening room, Yin Jun, accompanied by Cai Yongchang, walked outside.
Zou Wenhuai, He Guanchang and Cheng Long were discussing promotional matters inside, and they were preparing to release the film in February.
Now I have a few days to prepare, and I will start running around for promotion in early February. It will definitely be a hard physical job, but you can't just run around randomly. You must allocate your time and energy well to achieve the best publicity effect.
The two of them were walking while talking about something. When they turned a corner, a big fat man suddenly came out and almost bumped into Yin Jun.
"Hey, Brother Sanmao, why are you in such a hurry?" Yin Jun took a step back and looked at Hong Jinbao, who was sweating profusely.
"Master Jun?"
Hong Jinbao's eyes lit up, "Just in time, I have something to ask you... How about you wait for me?"
"good!"
Yin Jun nodded.
Then he saw Hong Jinbao pulling Cai Yongchang aside. The two murmured for a while before Hong Jinbao came back with a smile.
"Master Jun, there is a restaurant on the street opposite the company that makes good milk tea and pineapple buns. How about we go sit and talk and have afternoon tea by the way?" Hong Jinbao asked expectantly.
"Okay!" Yin Jun said with a smile, "I just happened to be tired after watching the movie, so I might as well take a rest."
"Okay, please come this way!" Hong Jinbao quickly ran to the front, like a waiter, and said while leading the way: "Master Jun, have you seen Aaron's new movie? How was it? It's pretty good, right? ?..."
Cheng Long's name in Seven Little Fortunes is Yuan Lou, but now that he has become famous, even Hong Jinbao has changed his name to Aaron. This is the change brought about by status.
Yin Jun briefly expressed his opinions, and Hong Jinbao only said "oh" a few times and did not continue to talk.
In fact, Hong Jinbao didn't really want to talk to Yin Jun about "Police Story". Although in this movie, his Hong family is still the martial arts instructor, and Cheng Long's people can only learn. Among them, there is no foundation for forming a family class.
Although Hong Jinbao is praised as the "most flexible" fat man, a fat man is still a fat man, and there is no way to change his body shape. Therefore, in terms of acting, he has great image constraints and cannot fight as coolly as Cheng Long.
This is also where he has always been a little troubled.
But for now, Hong Jinbao is still much more successful than Cheng Long.
Cheng Long just made a movie called "Red Zone". Although it was popular for a while, it was only a salary of 8 million plus dividends at best.
Where is Hong Jinbao?
I have taken several books from Yin Jun. Which one has not earned seven or eight million?
Especially the latest book, "Mr. Zombie" made Hung Kam-po a huge profit of 20 million yuan. He is so proud of his success!
Moreover, "Mr. Zombie" also promoted Lin Zhengying, adding another general to the Hong family.
Now that Lin Zhengying has polished the script and completed the preliminary preparations, he will start filming "Mr. Zombie 2" after the Lantern Festival. I think based on last year's popularity, it will definitely trigger a movie-watching craze again.
So Hong Jinbao is not very envious of Cheng Long now. On the contrary, he is thinking about bigger business.
He felt that he could be a boss and actively mobilize his employees so that they could create profits for themselves.
Lin Zhengying is one, and Yuan Kui can be counted as one. At least for now, the two of them will not leave immediately, because Hong Jinbao treats them well.
Then junior brother Yuan Biao is a big money tree. If he is trained well, he may not be worse than Cheng Long.
He won't be like Luo Wei, who lost Cheng Long in vain. On Yuan Biao's side, in addition to feelings, interests must also keep up, so that he can make a fortune in the long run.
Hong Jinbao came to Yin Jun today because he wanted to talk about Yuan Biao.
"Master Jun." After ordering something, and finally waiting for Yin Jun to eat and drink a little, Hong Jinbao couldn't bear it any longer. He smiled shyly and said: "I have to say that you are really good to my three treasures. You have always been kind to me along the way. Give me the script and help support my small company..."
"Brother Sanmao, you don't have to be so polite." Yin Jun interrupted him with a smile after hearing a few polite words, "You are a talented person and an ambitious person. I like people like you the most. People cooperate with each other, so if you want to talk about the movie today, you can just say it, there is nothing you can’t say.”
"Eh!"
Hong Jinbao's fat face had a smile as big as a chrysanthemum, and he actually looked very honest.
Hearing these words, he suddenly felt at ease.
Sure enough, because of the relationship between Lin Zhengying, Meng Hai, and Dong Wei, Jun Shao and I are still very close.
This is what Hong Jinbao thought, but he was completely wrong.
The reason why Yin Jun treats him differently is because Hong Jinbao, like Cheng Long, is a typical example of still struggling even in old age.
Moreover, Hong Jinbao, like Cheng Long, basically never makes bad movies. Even if the box office is not very good, the storyline and fighting scenes are still above the standard, and they are absolutely conscience.
Of course, Hong Jinbao also has some minor problems with his character, but Yin Jun is not a member of Hong Jinbao's family, so how can he control his private life?
As long as he makes movies seriously and takes his work seriously, such a person deserves Yin Jun's strong support.
There are not many people like this in Xiangjiang.
Cheng Long counts as one, Hong Jinbao counts as one, and Zhou Runfa can also count as one.
Other than that, basically nothing.
You can also say that Andy Lau, Liu Qingyun, Wu Zhenyu... and even Wang Jing have been insisting, but what kind of bad movies have they made? A movie that has no quality at all, in Yin Jun's opinion, is unnecessary and can be done without even making it.
It is precisely because Hong Jinbao can stand up on his own, this small film company has a complete system and a complete staff, and is full of enthusiasm for continuous filming, so Yin Jun will repeatedly give him scripts and let him develop on his own.
Otherwise, the way Yin Jun treated Hong Jinbao was to break up his company, recruit Hong Jinbao, Yuan Biao, and Lin Zhengying under his command, and let them make movies for him.
"It's like this." Jinbao Hung started to talk about the business, "My junior brother, Yuen Biao, has not had any good works since he made "The Prodigal Son". Although he has made a lot of money in the past two years, But he also hopes that he can improve. So I was thinking, Mr. Jun, can you create another movie for him, so that all our brothers can stand out, and I also inherit your kindness, Mr. Jun! "
Hong Jinbao said this somewhat politely.
Cheng Long's "Red Zone" can barely be said to be Yin Jun's promotion to the world, but Hung Kam-bao himself relied solely on his own efforts in the past few years to become the kung fu star he is today.
As for Yuan Biao, he is also very good at fighting and has great kung fu. Whether in "Plan A" or "Food Truck", he can fight heartily, no worse than his two senior brothers.
But the key is that Yuan Biao is too short and too thin.
This kind of figure is okay in Asia, but in Europe and America, it looks too petite. He has no innate conditions for being famous. At most, he can only be regarded as a special actor, which seems very embarrassing.
In his previous life, it was precisely because of Yuan Biao's position that he was in a very awkward position, so in the 1980s he suffered a sharp decline in filming. Then he gradually turned to directing behind-the-scenes action design, and occasionally came out to film some scenes, that's all. .
In fact, Yin Jun quite likes Yuan Biao. Although being short is a disadvantage, in a certain aspect, it is also an advantage.
We Chinese, Japanese, Koreans, and even people from Southeast Asia are not very tall. If Yuan Biao concentrates on playing in this market, he will definitely gain something.
Didn't Yuan Biao in his previous life become famous in Japan with the movie "Asura" and the petite and exquisite Ye Yunyi?
That is to say, Yuan Biao did not seize the opportunity to make a few more movies to consolidate his position. Otherwise, he would have been able to survive for ten years just relying on the Japanese market.
Now that Hong Jinbao came to the door, Yin Jun felt that he could make plans for Yuan Biao earlier.
His thoughts turned around, Yin Jun nodded, and looked Hong Jinbao up and down again, "Brother Sanmao, are you interested in taking Yuan Biao with you?"
"I?"
Hong Jinbao was overjoyed, "You want to tailor a movie for our two brothers?"
"It's not the two of you, it's the three of you." Yin Jun smiled slightly, "Call Brother Long, and the three of you brothers will make a movie together... This time we will start to attack overseas again!"
"Hey, okay!!"
Hong Jinbao suddenly became excited.
Can it be simple to assemble his, Cheng Long and Yuan Biao's movies at once?
Especially the script written by Yin Jun himself, it is definitely a classic!
"I will polish the script carefully and give it to you in about May." Yin Jun said thoughtfully, "In the three months of May, June, and July, you should not arrange scenes. If there are no accidents, you will have to do it by then." Went abroad for filming.”
"No problem! I will make the schedule available."
Hong Jinbao patted his chest and promised.
He thought simply. There were three protagonists in this drama, so wouldn't he be able to promote it to the outside world?
If all three brothers become famous, that will definitely be a good thing!
As the first star to become famous among the Seven Little Fortunes, although he has been chased by Cheng Long recently, deep down in his heart, Hong Jinbao also has a heart that refuses to admit defeat!
Hung Kam-bao, Cheng Long and Yuen Biao have collaborated in many movies together, but the most famous and exciting ones are the two episodes of "Plan A" and "Food Truck".
Of course, what Yin Jun said about overseas sales was "Food Truck".
In the past, when Yin Jundan watched it, he just thought it was very exciting. In fact, after learning more about it, he realized that Jiahe was really sincere in making movies.
Not only is the beautiful heroine a Spanish lady, but in the exciting fight in the castle in the last scene, several villains are all famous European boxing and fighting champions, which is why the fight is so exciting.
When Hong Jinbao mentioned Yuan Biao just now, Yin Jun immediately remembered this play and felt that he could make it.
Didn't Cheng Long regret that "Police Story" couldn't hit Europe and the United States?
This time it was just right for him to come on board, and with his already established reputation in Europe and the United States, he would add a heavier bargaining chip to the overseas distribution of "Food Truck".
As for the heroine, Yin Jun also has a plan in mind.
Isn’t that pretty and very individual French Rose the right age for a delicate young lady?
Moreover, Sophie Marceau likes challenging roles, and she doesn’t really like the good girl role set for her by the company. She should not refuse this role that is a bit rebellious and full of rebellious energy.
As long as Sophie Marceau is there, the movie's box office in France will be guaranteed.
After all, Sophie Marceau is a super idol that has been loved by the French for decades!
This is the same reason that in the future, if Hollywood wants to gain more box office from the mainland, it will often look for big stars such as Da Bingbing, Fan Ye, and Zhang Ziyi to make movies!
