Chapter 277 HK Film Circle

Shen Lang walked up and hugged the three of them: "Brother Jiahui, Brother Xueyou, and Boss Yang."

Yang Shoucheng looked at Shen Lang with a smile: "The hotel is ready. I have reserved long private rooms and presidential suites for you in my private hotel. I have arranged your accommodation, food and accommodation during your stay in Hong Kong."

Shen Lang raised his lips slightly: "Boss Yang, this money is not included in the investment, right?"

Yang Shoucheng laughed: "No, I arranged it specially."

Shen Lang gave a thumbs up: "Great atmosphere."

"Then let's go to the hotel to put our luggage and rest for a while. I've prepared a reception banquet and will give you a reception later."

Shen Lang nodded, and the others got on Yang Shoucheng's extended Lincoln.

Shen Lang entered Yang Shoucheng's Rolls-Royce.

"Boss Yang, is there something wrong?"

Shen Lang took Yang Shoucheng's cigar and looked at the smiling Yang Shoucheng and asked.

"Brother Shen, have you invested in Jiang Wen's new play?"

Shen Lang nodded: "Yes, I invested 25 million. Is it because of this cake, Boss Yang?"

Yang Shoucheng waved his hand quickly: "I don't mean that, Brother Shen, I admire him very much, and he is indeed a very talented director, but his movies are indeed not easy to make money. If you invest in it, you can help me share the pressure. "

Shen Lang smiled and said nothing, and looked at Yang Shoucheng with interest: "Brother Yang, are you telling the truth? I have read the script of Jiang Wen who sharpened his sword for five years and let the bullets fly. It is definitely a masterpiece. As long as it is filmed, Okay, this is a project that wins both plums and face. Tens of millions, I believe this is not a number for Boss Yang. "

Yang Shoucheng laughed: "Okay, my brother has said this, so I will open the sky and speak clearly. Emperor is ready to turn to the domestic market."

Shen Lang raised his eyebrows when he heard this: "Are you planning to pierce deeply?"

Yang Shoucheng nodded: "Yes, but I also know that to grab food from other people's land, you need to worship the mountain. I know that brother, you are quite prestigious in Beijing now."

"Uh, that's what you said, Brother Yang, I'm not a piece of biscuit, the leader in Beijing now is Chinese."

Yang Shoucheng smiled: "I have worshiped the Chinese people a long time ago, and I have also met the one from China Film Group. How can I put it, one is domineering, and the other is mature with age. It is not interesting to play with them. I want to cooperate with my brother."

Shen Lang laughed out loud when he heard this: "No way, Wang Zhongjun dares to show off his wealth in front of you? I don't know about others, but I don't know about you. When Emperor's market value was at its highest, your net worth alone was more than 30 billion. This is not old. Brother, your other business.”

"That's all in the past tense. To be honest, I don't really care about money. What do I care about? What I care about is the future of HK Movies. How can HK Movies prosper again after it has declined over the years? If you want to prosper, you must cooperate closely with the mainland market. You cannot stay here and be arrogant..."

Shen Lang looked at Yang Shoucheng very differently. It was really hard for him to imagine that Yang Shoucheng had such a high level.

"Brother, do you think what I said is wrong?" Yang Shoucheng looked at Shen Lang with doubts in his eyes.

Shen Lang shook his head: "No, no, I'm just surprised that Brother Yang is so organized."

Yang Shoucheng burst out laughing and put his arm around Shen Lang's shoulders: "I, Mr. Yang, came from a rough and tumble world to where I am today because of my structure."

"Brother Yang, to be honest, it is really difficult for HK movies to flourish again. First of all, the limitations are too small. In the past, those Jianghu movies, gang movies, and martial arts movies did have a lot of viewers, and everyone liked to watch them. , but that was before the millennium, and it might have been okay. Now, the mainland market is getting better and better, filmmakers are becoming more and more professional, and they are shooting more and more plots.

The Mainland film market has been slowly improving, and what has the Hong Kong market become in the past two years, especially the directors who went north to make money and directly feed the audience's brains, destroying the quality and reputation of Hong Kong movies? , it’s all gone. "

"And in the past two years, the HK film industry has become a disconnected stage with no successors. There are no newcomers, no good directors, no good scripts, no good actors. How do you want to prosper? "

(Originally, there are, Mr. Chen and the King of Forces. They are actually the new generation of successors being trained. One of them ruined his future just because of his hobbies, while the other thought that he was possessed by the God of Cooking.)

"Let me say one more thing, HK's comedies, HK's comedies are becoming less and less innovative. HK comedies can be said to be the hallmark of HK movies. In the past two years, I have no interest in watching the comedies they have produced. I just laugh out loud. Not coming out.”

Yang Shoucheng nodded: "I know this too, and I also know that in the past two years, the HK film industry has been either doing nothing or making bad movies, so I have been thinking of ways."

"Brother Yang, I think there is no hope at all. If you want to develop in the mainland market, I think there is no problem at all, but your direction must be towards high-quality products and large-scale productions, and you need to rely on the mainland film market instead of the HK film market. As the main line, the most important thing when you make a movie is actually the box office. Let’s not talk about the issue of money. When you make a movie, you just want more audiences to see it and recognize you. What you make needs everyone’s support. It takes recognition.”

Yang Shoucheng nodded: "Brother Shen, you are a person worthy of friendship. I have listened to everything you said. From now on, we will work together forever."

Shen Lang smiled: "If there is an opportunity to cooperate, of course there is no problem. In fact, I have always wanted to cooperate with Brother Long."

"Aaron?"

Shen Lang nodded: "Yes, after I finish filming this scene, I will prepare to cooperate with Brother Long."

"Big production?"

Shen Lang nodded: "Of course."

"What type?"

"Action movie."

"Action comedy? Still?"

"A pure action movie, different from the previous dragon-style comedy action movies."

Yang Shoucheng rubbed his hands: "Let's talk?"

Shen Lang laughed: "Boss Yang, you are so anxious."

"Aaron has been resting for a while. You should know that, just..."

"You know, Brother Long has been unsuccessful in Hollywood in the past two years...it's just superficial glory..."

Yang Shoucheng nodded: "You may not know that now Aaron has lowered his salary to 5 million US dollars, and no one has invited him. At his peak, he received 25 million US dollars in salary."

Shen Lang sighed, Uncle Long, he is not very lucky. The agent next door and the King of Kung Fu have suffered successive defeats. Originally a rising international superstar, the light of the Chinese people, he said no, he will no longer be able to do it.

Hollywood is such a reality, no one can be exempted. Will Nicolas Cage fall into such a downturn?
