In addition to the cynicism of some media and the shock of insiders, there is another view on Kang Jianfei's upcoming collaboration with Cameron to make a sci-fi blockbuster.

Countless fans of "Tomb Notes" and movie fans had only one thought when they learned about the new film "Jurassic Park": What a fool! It was agreed that "The Tomb Raiders" was going to be a sequel. After more than a year, where is the sequel? It's enough to shoot a "World of Truman" without doing business, but now there is a million sci-fi blockbuster. Is there such a pit that can be dug and buried?

For these people, they don't care how many women they see, or how many billion yuan Kang Jianfei's new film budget is, they just want to see the sequel to "The Tomb Raiders".

In just one week, Kang Jianfei received hundreds of letters from fans, hoping that he would abandon the shooting plan of "Jurassic Park" and switch to the long-awaited "Tomb Notes 2".

Not only that, the fan meeting of "Notes on Tomb Raiders" also organized and ran to the gate of Tseung Kwan O Film and Television City to sit in and petition. Knowing the news, Kang Jianfei was dumbfounded, so he could only persuade the fans to go back in person, and said that he had been planning a sequel to "The Tomb Raiders", and filming would start in the second half of the year at most. Although he was not the director of the sequel, he would serve as a producer to ensure the sequel. quality.

The "Tomb Notes" fan club was originally just a book fan club, and when "Tomb Notes" was made into a movie, many fans also joined in and became a large fan group with more than 2,000 members.

Tseung Kwan O Film and Television City has entertainment reporters squatting all day long. The scene that happened at the gate was naturally filmed by reporters and reported on the entertainment page as a rare event.

I've never heard of a movie company making a big-ticket sequel just to make a lot of money, attracting a lot of scolding from the audience. But it was the first time I met the audience crying and shouting. Organizing a petition to ask studios to make a sequel is the exact opposite.

The editor of "Xin Pao" commented: "Kang Jianfei is a person who likes freshness, just like he keeps dating new beauties. Director Kang Da's attitude towards movies is the same. No matter how popular the first movie is, he has never personally Filmed sequels. "Happy Ghost", "Mr. Zombie", "Royal Senior Sister", "Once Upon a Time" and other movies are nothing but the same. "Home Alone", he directly sold the sequel rights to 20th Century Fox.

Kang Jianfei's liking for the new and disliking the old is a major factor in his success. He will not be immersed in past achievements, but will keep trying new things. Now Hong Kong shoots more and more films every year, but less and less new ideas, constantly repeating the bridges that have become routines..."

Well, I was originally commenting on the "Tomb Notes" fan group petition. However, it was abruptly brought up by the "New News" to the shoddy production of Hong Kong films. It seems that there have been more and more bad movies produced in Hong Kong in the past two years, and people have accumulated deep resentment, and they will complain when they get the chance.

However, Kang Jianfei is having a headache. In the end, he should let him direct "Notes of the Tomb Raiders 2".

Throughout Hong Kong, there are many people who have the ability to take over the filming of "Tomb Notes 2". These people's directing skills are absolutely passable. Although it is possible that they have never made a fantasy adventure film, as long as they are provided with sufficient funds and manpower. It's sure to be a top-notch movie.

First of all, you must choose among the contract directors of the Oriental Entertainment Agency, so Wu Yusen, Du Qifeng and others were eliminated directly. In the end, Kang Jianfei focused his attention on Xu Ke and Li An.

Xu Ke has other shooting tasks in the second half of the year. Then only Li An was left.

However, in view of Ang Lee's bad deeds in shooting superhero films in a literary style, Kang Jianfei felt that he must exercise the power of supervision. As long as he controls the rhythm of the whole film, perhaps Ang Lee's literary style will bring unexpected surprises to "Tomb Raiders 2".

"Dong Dong Dong!"

"Come in."

Kang Jianfei looked down at the photos on the table. There were more than 100 photos, all of which were the beauty of the island.

After being adapted by Kang Jianfei, the first story of "Jurassic Park" took place on an island in Asia. Kang Jianfei took a team of 10 people to go to the East Indies to select the scene. After more than half a month of hard work, all the island photos that were finally screened were placed here.

Kang Jianfei picked out the photos of the small islands he liked. Record them one by one in the notebook, and in a few days he will go to the field to observe. The final decision is which island to choose for shooting.

Hearing footsteps approaching, Kang Jianfei put down the photo and raised his head. He smiled and said, "Please sit down."

The person who came was Jiang Zhiqiang, the general manager of the Oriental Cinema Company. After he sat down, he directly talked about the business: "I just talked to Pan Disheng, and he still intends to sell the Debao Cinema, but the asking price is too high, and the price is too high. There's a side request to sell the Dickon records to us. I can't make the decision, only you can decide."

Kang Jianfei asked, "How much is he asking for?"

Jiang Zhiqiang said: "He asked for 500 million yuan. I can't talk about 450 million yuan. I have to put Dickon records over it as an extra."

"As far as Dison Records is, it's too expensive to sell it to me for 1 million yuan." Kang Jianfei couldn't help laughing.

Like Debao Films, Dickson Records is Pan Disheng's play. Its most famous singer is Chen Baiqiang, but Chen Baiqiang has already signed to other companies. Now the only singer under Dickson Records is Kwong Meiyun. If Kwong Meiyun is not so famous, then breaking the company is worth up to 100,000 yuan.

As for Debao Cinemas, Pan Disheng invested nearly 300 million in it, and has 15 self-built and franchised cinemas.

Debao Cinemas were originally converted into theaters from rented facades, and the rest of the leases have different lengths. Nearly half of them are advanced multiplex cinemas.

Kang Jianfei only planned to buy 7 of them with the best locations, but Pan Disheng wanted the entire theater chain to be sold together, and the asking price was ridiculously high.

"400 million is my bottom line. If Mr. Pan still refuses to let go, then there is no need to waste words. We will immediately choose a site to build our own cinema." Kang Jianfei said very simply, he is not obliged to buy Debao Cinemas. .

On the contrary, Debao Cinemas, because Pan Disheng no longer wants to be in the film industry, wants to sell the film, the cinema chain and the record company, but now it is difficult to find someone to take over.

Although Hong Kong films are prosperous, and there are more and more wealthy businessmen investing in films, this does not mean that it is necessary to have film and theater companies. Most of the investors who invest in Hong Kong films are just to make money. They directly invest in specific directors or companies and are not interested in starting their own companies.

Jiang Zhiqiang took the coffee brewed by Li Meifeng, took a slow sip, and said, "I also tend not to buy Debao Cinemas, because our Oriental Cinemas are already well-established in Hong Kong, the only thing missing is Shao. The few points that the theater took back."

Kang Jianfei nodded and said, "Then build it yourself."

Jiang Zhiqiang suddenly said: "My eldest brother was diagnosed with a chronic disease in the hospital. He can't be too tired at ordinary times. He wants to hand over the management of the Anle Cinema Line to me."

"You're not going to resign to me, are you?" Kang Jianfei asked.

"I want Anle Cinema to join the Oriental Cinema~lightnovelpub.net~" said Jiang Zhiqiang. He is used to being the general manager of a large cinema chain like the Oriental Cinema, how could he be willing to go back to run a small company with only 4 cinemas Cinema.

"I welcome you with both hands!" Kang Jianfei said with a smile, if Jiang Zhiqiang left, he would not be able to find a suitable general manager of the theater chain for a while.

Shaw Brothers is ready to return, Debao plans to close down, and change the manager of Anle Films, which monopolizes the western distribution business in Hong Kong in the future. This Hong Kong film industry is also an eventful time.

After Jiang Zhiqiang left, Li Meifeng walked into the office again and said, "Brother Fei, the director of the Hong Kong branch of Xinhua News Agency called you just now."

"What's the matter?" Kang Jianfei asked.

Li Meifeng said: "A major flood occurred in East China."

Kang Jianfei sighed speechlessly: Sure enough, it was an eventful time. (To be continued) r655
