The Wealth Empire Crossing the Hong Kong

Chapter 233 Head Monopoly
Zeng Zhiwei, general manager of Jiayi Film Company, made a brief speech at the screening ceremony, giving a brief introduction to the film.

In addition to Miao Qiaowei, the leading role this time is Japanese actor Yasuaki Aoda as the male lead, Brigitte Brigitte as the female lead, and American actress Catherine Bach as the second female lead.

The character actors in it are also quite gorgeous, Hua Tsai, Wang Jie, Ye Qianwen, Zhong Chuhong are all included in it, Jing Daiyin, Chen Miner, Tang Zhenye, Liu Rensong also make cameo appearances in it.

It is Jiayi Group's wealth and wealth, coupled with its many artists, that can make so many elites appear in a movie.

Especially Jing Daiyin and the others, in the past two years, they have already become well-known stars in Xiangjiang.

The reason why Yasuaki Aota and Catherine Bach play the second male and female second in the film is mainly for the Japanese market and the American market. With these two actors, they will be more popular in these two markets than all Chinese actors.

As the lights of the Lisheng Theater went out, the movie officially started. As the name suggests, although it couldn't fly, it was far faster than ordinary old drivers.

The main line of this movie is similar to the movie in the previous life. Li Jianhui watched it because of the game, but it was called Need for Speed ​​in the previous life. In this life, it has been changed to highlight the speed.

Although this movie is far from being comparable to Fast and Furious, it is not twenty or thirty years later, Fast and Furious has not yet come out, and a movie like this now has a high probability that it will not hit the street.

After all, the current audience has not seen too many movies with similar plots, and such a large investment as Li Jianhui is rare, and the scene is enough to attract many audiences to watch.

Especially now that it is the student party's summer vacation, I believe these people will give Jiayi a huge surprise.

Because the main story line was given by Li Jianhui, and he had seen it in his previous life, this movie didn't appeal much to him.

The 100-minute movie is a bit long for Li Jianhui and Guan Jiahui, after all, their minds are not on the movie.

But for most people, time passes too quickly, and it is over before they know it.

The biggest feeling that the movie gave them was the roar of the car engine, and the almost extreme speed.

The plot of Jiayi’s screenwriting team is also remarkable. Judging from the faces of these people present, Li Jianhui feels that this movie will most likely become Jiayi’s first film to enter the European and American markets. The total box office may also break through the highest record in the history of Xiangjiang movies, and it will greatly increase this record.

Lei Juekun sighed at the side: "Jianhui, it seems that Jiayi Film Company is the box office champion of Xiangjiang this year. Although Xinyi City also spent nearly ten million Hong Kong dollars to shoot a movie, it also Only in the Asian market."

After watching this movie, Lei Juekun knew that Li Jianhui was going for the European and American markets. This can be seen from the subject matter of the movie. It is definitely different from the current era of Kung Fu movies and comedy movies in Xiangjiang.

Moreover, this type of film is more acceptable to the European and American markets, and it is easier to enter the European and American markets than Kung Fu films and Hong Kong-style comedies.

Li Jianhui said with a smile: "The result is still hard to say, whether it will be recognized by audiences from all over the world is still unknown.

Moreover, it is rumored that Golden Harvest will also feature Jackie Chan as the main character, investing in a movie suitable for the American market, it may not be easy to win the box office championship of Xiangjiang Movies. "

Although he has confidence in this movie, he is not overwhelmed by his confidence. After all, Golden Harvest has the trump card of Jackie Chan in his hands. This past life is definitely the best Chinese movie star in Hollywood.

If Golden Harvest is willing to spend a lot of money to make a movie suitable for him, it is really possible to suppress Jiayi's Need for Speed.

"The era of Kung Fu dramas in Xiangjiang is over, and there will be no next Bruce Lee in Xiangjiang. It is just Zou Wenhuai's wishful thinking to try to create another Bruce Lee.

There are so many Xiangjiang film companies now, and the capital is quite strong. If you want to win the first place, I think you still have to learn from your Jiayi Film Company, increase the cost investment, carry out large-scale production, and study the preferences of various markets at the same time, so that the film can go out of Xiangjiang. . "

Because of Li Jianhui, the prosperous age of Xiangjiang film industry came earlier, and because of the involvement of several major consortiums, its strength became stronger.

This has also led to a very high production volume of Xiangjiang movies. In more than a month, nearly [-] movies are released, which is quite scary.

You must know that in the [-]s, Golden Harvest and Shaw Brothers' Battle for the Front, only about five movies were released in a month.

In the past, a movie of Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest was screened in theaters for more than [-] days, and the longest was more than [-] days.

But now the pressure of competition is quite high, and many movies may begin to reduce the number of screenings within five days of their release.

At present, the Xiangjiang film industry is similar to the retail supermarkets in the past. The top films are backed by consortia and families, and they don't care about losses at all.

But this is a pain for those small and medium-sized film companies in the past. Facing Jiayi, Xinyicheng, Yongsheng, Shaw Brothers, Golden Harvest, Xinhui, Sanhe, Asia, Yongxin, Far East, Kowloon, etc., there is no capital at all. compete.

Behind these are either consortiums or associations. If you want money and people, you need people. The theaters belong to several major consortiums, and the external distribution channels are also in the hands of several leading companies.

It is impossible for these small and medium-sized film companies to get blood from overseas markets, and their films basically have no chance of being released overseas.

Over time, they either choose to leave the industry or fall under the umbrella of these leading studios.

Now Xiangjiang movie fans have grown their appetite for movies produced by major film and television companies, and they don't want to watch some small-scale movies that don't have much new ideas.

In order to cope with this change, Jiayi Group newly established a special effects company, and at the same time reduced the number of products produced and worked hard on the quality.

However, the competition among the major film and television companies is competition, and they are more restrained in terms of star box office. Although it has increased a little this year, the increase is not very large.

Everyone increased production costs, mainly because they used the funds for the quality of the film, instead of accumulating stars and using [-] cents for special effects.

In this regard, all parties have reached a consensus. Everyone is unwilling to dig holes for others and bury themselves at the same time.

It has also led to the fact that the artists of the major groups are mainly cultivated by themselves, and generally do not poach each other with high salaries.

Of course, this is the tacit understanding between the leading companies. For those small and medium-sized film companies, these companies are not polite at all. From the director to the behind-the-scenes production, as long as they have good strength, they will be poached by all parties.

While increasing its own strength, it also hit these small and medium-sized film companies and forced them to withdraw from this industry, so as to achieve the goal of leading companies to monopolize the Hong Kong film market.
