Huayu special effects started in 97

Chapter 492 Global Promotion

The first installment of "The King's Avatar" was released in 08. Fast forward a few years and it's already 2014!
Movie fans lamented that it was really not easy to wait for Director Jiang’s sequel, and they must support him!

As a result, many fans of the movie "The King's Avatar" and the game "League of Legends" forwarded the news of the release of "The King's Avatar" on personal social media platforms such as WeChat Moments and Weibo, and spontaneously promoted the film.

The issuer, Bonna Company, is only conducting a regular roadshow promotion.

As for Jiang Heng, after attending a preview event in Shanghai, he flew directly to Hong Kong.

In the restaurant, dozens of well-known figures and bigwigs from the Hong Kong entertainment industry, including Jiang Heng, Cheng Long, Sammo Hung, Chow Yun-fat, Stephen Chow, Leung Chiu-wai, Zhang Xueyou, Gu Tianle, Ng Yu-sen, Xu Ke, Liu Weiqiang, and Lam Chiu-yin, gathered together.

Cheng Long stood on the stage, holding the microphone and talking about the purpose of today's gathering.

"Well, these years, for reasons that are well known to all, our Hong Kong films have not been very prosperous. Many of our colleagues who were once active on the screen have left the industry. Some of them are doing well. But some people's lives are in trouble...!"

Cheng Long cited several examples, such as Liu Jiahui, who had his house and money taken away by his ex-wife after he became paralyzed by a stroke.

Cheng Long comes from a martial arts background and has been on guard against his wife all his life because he is used to seeing his brothers’ women running away with the money after they get hurt.

He felt somewhat touched when he heard about Liu Jiahui's story.

Everyone else at the scene also had a solemn expression.

For example, Stephen Chow, who had worked with Liu Chia-hui in "A Chinese Odyssey: Part One", had also visited him many times.

There is also Andy Lau, who is said to have burst into tears when he saw how emaciated Liu Chia-hui was.

"Then, we once worked together in the Hong Kong entertainment industry and created the glorious era of Hong Kong films together. This is a kind of fate. The glory we have achieved today is also due to their efforts... Although Director Jiang went north to the mainland to develop after his debut, he still has deep feelings for our colleagues in the Hong Kong entertainment industry. Over the years, he has helped many people, fulfilled many people, and taken care of many people. Here, let us applaud and express our gratitude!"

After Cheng Long finished speaking, he looked at Jiang Heng, smiled and led the applause, and naturally there was applause in the audience.

In fact, the original plan was to choose another host for this event, but Cheng Long loves to be lively.

Why are you looking for a host? I can do it. I volunteered to take the job.

After thanking Jiang Heng, he said that the purpose of calling everyone here today was to set up a fund to help those Hong Kong artists who were in trouble.

He then announced the amount of Jiang Heng's donation, which was 10 million yuan.

Everyone in the venue was a little surprised when they heard this.

After all, this donation was not due to any major disaster, and the number of Hong Kong artists in trouble is still a minority after all.

To be honest, this 10 million yuan can help many people.

But for Jiang Heng's sake, everyone donated one or two million each, and I donated a few hundred thousand, raising the amount of donation to more than 60 million yuan.

Jiang Heng immediately went on stage and said some words of thanks for the support!

As for the subsequent establishment and operation of the foundation, it is naturally handed over to professional financial talents. In Hong Kong, such people are relatively easy to find.

After having dinner together, Jiang Heng, Cheng Long, Sammo Hung and Stephen Chow had a small gathering.

Although Hong and Zhou had some unpleasant experiences due to their cooperation, they were both good at dealing with people. With Jiang Heng as the peacemaker, they could still sit together, drink, chat and laugh.

Cheng Long was a little annoyed. His carefully crafted "Police Story 2013" only earned more than 5 million yuan at the Lunar New Year holiday. Some netizens said that it was because of Jiang Heng's cameo appearance that such results were achieved.

Otherwise, there wouldn’t even be 500 million!
Cheng Long was naturally very unhappy. He felt that it was not his problem but because of the subject matter and the script.

He used to fight all over the world, such as "Around the World in 80 Days", "Rush Hour", "New Police Story", "Baby Project", etc. But in this play, he just fights in a bar in Beijing, the scale is really too small.

"This time, I'm going to fight in a vast area, for a more grand theme. What do you think?"

Jiang Heng took a sip of wine and said with a smile: "Not bad, where are you going this time?"

"The Western Regions, the ancient Western Regions!"

"oh oh!"

When Jiang Heng heard him say that, he remembered that this was going to be "Dragon Blade", and it had to be said that it was a really bad movie.

The film's director, Li Rengang, is particularly fond of UFO hats.

Cheng Long asked: "Are you interested?"

Jiang Heng shook his head. "Forget it. I only like movies with special effects!"

Cheng Long shook his head slightly, "You are so good at martial arts, it's a pity not to make a kung fu movie!"

Jiang Heng said: "For a Kung Fu movie, you guys are enough, why do you need me?

Besides, things are different now. The younger generation doesn’t love kung fu movies as much as they used to!”

Zhou Xingxing said: "I agree with this. If you ask me, it's because of the special effects movies. Look at the movie 'Heroes Serial' that he's going to be in. When a sword is swung out, a ditch several thousand meters long and dozens of meters deep is dug. Compared with the punching and kicking scenes, it's not that exciting!"

Cheng Long also knew this, so he put his arm around Jiang Heng's neck and said, "So, if I lose my job one day, it's all your fault. Drink!"

Jiang Heng laughed, "Okay, let's drink!"

The promotional activities of "Heroes Serial" in Hong Kong are very hot. In the eyes of the audience here, Jiang Heng is from Hong Kong, and many staff members in the crew are also from Hong Kong, so Jiang Heng's films can be regarded as Hong Kong films.

In this era of recession for Hong Kong films, we must support it.

As for the publicity in Japan, South Korea, Southeast Asia and other places, it was completely left to Du Huan to arrange.

After the incident in Hong Kong was over, Jiang Heng called several main creators of the crew and flew to the United States together.

The North American film market is so large that we should pay more attention to it.

Furthermore, the game "League of Legends" is very popular here. A joint promotion can not only get good box office, but also make more money through the game.

Compared with the more conservative people in China, the fans here are more free and unrestrained.

On the day of the premiere, a large number of game fans dressed up as characters from the game, gathered at the scene and shouted various slogans.

Of course, they are all in English. You won’t hear anything like “Cunning villains, justice will prevail”.

Jiang Heng’s hairstyling partner in Hollywood is still Columbia, but the president is no longer Amy, but a man named Sanford Panitch.

He is a game fan and a fan of special effects blockbusters. He believes that movies, as a visual art, should use the most advanced technology to achieve the ultimate visual scenes.

He believes that the digital virtual technology used to create Queen Kesha, Angel Yan and others in the film is the greatest innovation in film history and will subvert the industry. (End of this chapter)
