Rebirth Enchanted Xiangjiang

"Then Mr. Qiao admitted that our Shaw Brothers Spring Festival stalls would fail miserably, and would be inferior to Jiahe, so he came to us after Jiahe refused?" Shao Yifu still asked calmly. Not at all like Fang Yihua's round eyes Looking at Qiao Feng fiercely.

Qiao Feng smiled at Fang Yihua: "Miss Fang, don't be angry, the facts will prove that I am right. Of course, I am not belittling you, and I am also not optimistic about Jiahe. It's just that their new Shushan swordsman investment is better than yours. There are many Shaw Brothers, so no matter how bad the box office is, no matter how bad the word-of-mouth is, they have to bite the bullet and put it down. So after Jiahe refused, I knew that I would not be able to add their Spring Festival stalls, so I can only find you Shao S."

"Mr. Joe is really honest." Shao Yifu laughed.

"What frankness, I don't think it is right to put us in the eye at all." Fang Yihua looked at Qiao Feng coldly: "Even if our film is poor, but our screening time is long enough to be able to recover the cost, why Co-release your film?"

"Miss Fang, you also said that I am working with you, and the movies are selling big. Not only do you make money in the cinema, but also the money you invest can have a generous return. I think this is far lower than your vacant seats. It’s much more cost-effective to make a return to the investment of the star's poor attendance." Qiao Feng raised his eyebrows.

"It’s still unknown whether the interstellar blunt tire is good or not. It’s just Mr. Qiao’s own words to say that it’s not good. We can’t give up the Spring Festival stall because of this. I think Mr. Qiao also said the same thing to Zou Wenhuai. They also rejected the same consideration as the old man, right?" Shao Yifu said.

"Mr. Shao is right." Qiao Feng smiled helplessly.

In Jiahe, he also expressed his disapproval of the new Shushan swordsman, but Zou Wenhuai and Shao Yifu Fang Yihua are as confident in their movies as they do, and they don’t think it will be a disastrous box office failure as Qiao Feng said. There is no interest in the file release.

He Guanchang even teased him and said that Mr. Qiao, if you invest 30 million Hong Kong dollars in the United States, you dare to expect 70 million dollars in the global box office, which is nearly 300 million Hong Kong dollars. Our Jiahe dare not compare with you, but we invested more than 20 million to get the cost back. We still have confidence in making a small profit.

Having said that, Qiao Feng doesn't have to talk any more, and Jiahe will definitely not give up the Spring Festival stalls.

"Jiahe has confidence in investing so much. We have invested nearly 10 million less than them, and there is no reason for lack of confidence. So, Mr. Qiao is embarrassed, we can cooperate, but let’s not forget the Spring Festival file." Shao Yifu smiled. Said.

Hearing this, Qiao Feng smiled bitterly, and he knew it would be like this. As a tycoon Shao who stood side by side with Jiahe duo in the 60s and 70s, how could he be more confident than Zou Wenhuai.

If it weren't for people to be too picky and forced Li Xiaolong and Xu Guanwen to Jiahe, Jiahe would not have survived until now.

However, Qiao Feng, who was rejected again, was not discouraged because the situation of Shaw Brothers and Jiahe are different.

Jiahe Investment is too high, more than 20 million. If you want to recover the investment, you can only show it for a long time. However, the Shaw investment is only more than 10 million. The investment pressure is not that big. If the attendance rate is too low, it will inevitably be drawn. Otherwise, don't I watched the daily screenings, but the money is not as good as the maintenance of the theater and the labor expenses.

In fact, in addition to the few films that have sold out in the past few years, Shaw Brothers can barely maintain a balance of payments most of the time, and often loses money. The films are often released for four, five days, five or six days, taking advantage of the initial The audience earns a bit of enthusiasm, and then once the attendance drops, they will immediately download the new film and release it. Then the next film will be shown in Nanyang.

Self-sufficiency seems good, but the Shaw’s wages under the large-scale studio system are too heavy, and because of low wages, capable young people ran out, leaving behind old people who could not keep up with the times. , The film made is not what the audience likes to watch,

In short, Shaw Brothers can't stop walking on the path of a vicious circle. If it weren't for a big family, he would have gone bankrupt.

Knowing the situation of Shaw Brothers, as well as the memory that the original space-time interstellar blunt tire was only hurriedly released for three days with the initial popularity of more than six million at the box office, it had to be drawn, so Qiao Feng confidently made a bet with Shao Yifu.

"Bet?" Shao Yifu asked in surprise.

"Yes, bet. I bet that the reputation of the interstellar blunt tire audience will be very poor, and the attendance rate will drop rapidly. If I am wrong, then I will give you a script for free. If it is exactly what I said, then the interstellar blunt tire After the painting, we will show the film we cooperated with.'' Qiao Feng said.

"Mr. Qiao, forgive me, it seems that this bet is beneficial to our Shaw Brothers no matter how you look at it, but for Mr. Qiao, you may lose a script worth millions and tens of millions. The old man is very curious, Mr. Qiao, please What? Why must it be released on the Spring Festival file? "Although Shao Yifu's old but always savvy eyes were full of confusion when he asked this.

"I said it's because I don't like to let Xinyicheng come out, do you believe it?" Qiao Feng asked with a smile.

"I believe it." Shao Yifu nodded clearly. He thought it was the best partner to release at the beginning of the year. Mecca, Lei Juekun and they brazenly said that they would step on the gods of gamblers to create a new record. It's Qiao Feng, that's why Qiao Feng is like that.

Qiao Feng didn't know what Shao Yifu was thinking, of course he knew he would not explain much.

"Then Mr. Shao agreed to this bet?" Qiao Feng asked with a smile.

"Mr. Joe's conditions are so good. The old man can't agree or not. Now, can you talk about what type of film you are going to shoot? It is not easy to overwhelm the best partner sequel. Does Mr. Joe want to make a sequel to God of Gamblers? "Shao Yifu said with a smile.

"Not a sequel to God of Gamblers, but a zombie comedy." Qiao Feng said.

"What, zombie film, what are you kidding?" Fang Yihua, who was silent for a while, was annoyed again.

Shao Yifu's expression turned bad, and the inquiring question asked: "Why does Mr. Qiao think of shooting a zombie movie? The audience doesn't like this subject very much. In the past two years, one or two of Hong Jinbao's box office is not bad. This kind of film and the sequel to the best partner with a large audience base are in the ring, Mr. Joe, are you sure you can do it?"

It’s no wonder that Shao Yifu is so unconfident and lacking confidence. It is really unbearable to look back on the past. When it comes to zombie movies, Shaw is the ancestor.

In 1974, Shaw invested a huge amount of money and cooperated with the British company Hammer to film a zombie film that combined Western vampires and the Chinese legend of "Destroying the corpse in Xiangxi".

The director of this film is British, the screenwriter is British, and the co-operating company has filmed many vampire movies, such as The Devil’s Ceremony, Dracula, etc. Hammer, which is known as the "vampire base".

The combination of local and foreign in this film, Shaw's big publicity back then, was quite valued, and the reality gave Shao Yifu a sap. Because there were too many mixed things in the film, the audience could not accept it, resulting in a disastrous loss at the box office.

Since then, let alone Shaw Brothers, other companies, the entire Hong Kong film industry dare not touch zombie themes for the next ten years.

Now Qiao Feng said that he would shoot a zombie movie that will leave a shadow on Shao Yifu against Best Partner 2. Shao Yifu is not surprised if he is confident.
