Back in Hong Kong, Cheng Xiaodong started the production without stopping, Qiao Feng contacted Huang Zhan, and Gu Jiahui, the two Hui Huang Ersheng, who had cooperated for more than 20 years, worked on the arrangement and soundtrack of the theme song of the War against the Qin Warriors.

"Sing this song, you can still get a gold medal this year." Qiao Feng said to Ye Qianwen, so Ye Qianwen only spent a day lingering with Qiao Feng and then went into the intense recording. Then Ye Qianwen’s manager and the person in charge of China Star Records immediately began to collect songs for Ye Qianwen, preparing to add a few songs that already existed to release an album.

"Flying Dragon Warriors got 35.6 million box office, Eight Star Annunciation got 39 million box office, Gambler broke the local box office created by Dragon Brother and Tiger with 47 million box office last year. Record. "On this day, Qiao Feng went to the theater to see the recent film arrangement. Li Zhi sorted out the box office sales of the Spring Festival stalls and reported in detail.

These box office situations have been reported by Li Zhi, but they are all reported separately. Although Qiao Feng remembers it clearly, the summary report of Li Zhi still allows Qiao Feng to understand the box office situation of the Spring Festival more intuitively. Qiao Feng is very I am satisfied with the work ability and attitude of Lizhi, an assistant and cinema manager.

"What's the main show recently?" Qiao Feng asked after hearing the report.

"It is produced by Jiahe, the monogamous and married couple starring Miss Zhong, the Overlord Flower produced by Weihe of Jiahe and Cheng Long, and the Tiger Produced by Xinyicheng. These three are the three highest-ranked movies in our theater recently. Movie. "Lizhi answered directly without thinking about it. I already remembered these in my head.

"Oh." Qiao Feng nodded. Except for the three films, Qiao Feng has not watched the other two films. I know that these two films are quite good, especially the tigers are out at the box office. The results should be very good. Qiao Feng is very satisfied with this, which shows that the theater has a steady stream of good movies, and the theater will naturally make more money.

"Have you made any new progress on Huang Yulang?" Qiao Feng asked again.

"No, Zheng Jinghan and Sing Tao Group Hu Xian were both rejected by him, and ours is the same." Li Zhi shook his head and said.

"Well, it seems this guy is really going to hold on." Qiao Feng shook his head noncommittal and chuckled.

Zheng Jinghan, the owner of Paramount Group, also took the lead in introducing the Chinese version of Playboy (), making it a high-end magazine in the Chinese publishing industry. He also founded "New Modern Pictorial", the earliest comprehensive fashion magazine in China It is also the first high-end "Made in China" magazine to enter China International Airport and five-star hotels. Since its creation, "New Modern Pictorial" has always been a focus of social elites. In the publishing industry, Zheng Jinghan is a capable Danah.

Not to mention Sing Tao Daily. One of the three largest newspapers in Hong Kong, Hu Xian, the owner of the newspaper, has been called the "Queen of the Newspaper Industry".

Zheng Jinghan, Hu Xian, count Qiao Feng's side, the three listed companies Yulang International, which bid for Huang Yulang together, compete with each other, and the price will never lose Huang Yulang, but Huang Yulang is still unwilling to sell, which shows that this person is Dedicated to his comics.

Persistence is a good thing, but in order to persevere and desperate, then some of the brain is sick.

Qiao Feng knew that Huang Yulang was such a person.

Huang Yulang’s life can be said to be a legend. He went to Hong Kong at the age of 7, and dropped out of school at the age of 13, helped people draw cartoons, and published a comic called "Son of Superman" under the pen name of "Huang Yulang", which initially showed his talents. , A monthly salary of 140 to 200 Hong Kong dollars, but the good times did not last long, and soon became unemployed due to the depression of the comics industry.

In 1964, when Qiao Feng was just a two-year-old child, Huang Yulang, who was unemployed, had already started his business for the first time. He borrowed 1,000 yuan from his father as capital to start a comics club and started his own "publishing business" ", published a weekly magazine called "Joke World".He draws, edits and prints himself, and his collaborator is his brother.Without a publishing house willing to publish, he and his brother rode bicycles around the streets and alleys,

Huang Yulang was not discouraged when his first venture failed.On the contrary, Huang Yulang believes, "The biggest gain from "Jokes World" makes me familiar with the streets of Hong Kong and Kowloon, because I deliver the goods myself." It seems that this is beneficial to him. One year Rear.He was eager to try again, and co-published "Entertainment Comics Daily" with others. He prepared for three months. Unfortunately, the lifespan of this newspaper is only three months.Due to poor sales and making ends meet, the publication was suspended after 3 months.

Huang Yulang failed his second business venture again. As his savings were exhausted, he had to work for others.At that time, Cui Wei from the Hong Kong comics industry was eager to recruit comic talents, so he took the exam.In Cui Wei Group, he creates 40 to 50 stories every month, 210 paintings for each story, salary plus manuscript fees, and his income is good.However, Huang Yulang was not satisfied with the status quo, and was stable for more than a year. He cooperated with the artist He Ke to publish his own comic daily newspaper.Started the third venture.

This time he succeeded, but the success was short-lived. Because of the lack of raw manuscripts and political reasons, everyone in Hong Kong was in turmoil and consumption power was diminishing. They caught up with the start of TVB, and people’s attention was focused on TV and comic books. The newspaper caused a big impact, and Huang Yulang failed again.

In 1969, Hong Kong's economy began to take off, the consumption power of the citizens increased, and the comics market also showed vitality. The hard-hit Huang Yulang gave up the idea of ​​changing careers and decided to stick to it.

At the end of 1971, an elderly friend who was in a bookstore liked Huang Yulang’s focus on comics and his perseverance and co-founded Yulang Book Company, which specialized in publishing various comic publications. After three years of hard work, The sales volume of Yulang's publications ranks first in the Hong Kong market, overwhelming Japanese books that were "dominant" for a while.

After that, Huang Yulang, who made a lot of money with the little gangster, that is, Dragon Tiger Gate, started the expansion of the comics business. On June 27, 1979, Yulang International Co., Ltd. was formally established and began to recruit troops and wanted to break the entire Hong Kong comics market. In 1981, he reached an agreement with Shangguan Xiaobao to classify his "Bruce Lee" as "Yu Lang". Since then, the country has officially unified, and all comics are produced by Yu Lang comics.

Throughout the 1980s, Hong Kong’s comics industry was basically Huang Yulang’s world, and almost all good comics authors were compiled by him. Huang Yulang was the overlord of Hong Kong’s comics industry.
