Dreams of the Fragrant River

~: Five hundred and forty-five [true anti-s

When the pace of time entered 1986, the administrative building of Tseung Kwan O Film and Television City had increased to six buildings, which housed Phoenix TV, Oriental DreamWorks Pictures, Oriental Entertainment Agency, Oriental Entertainment Distribution Company, Popular Records, Oriental Film and television production company, Qimeng film and television special effects company, dark horse comic company, and dark horse animation company that has no official works. 【First Release】

Among them, the Oriental Film and Television Production Company, the TV production department of the former Oriental DreamWorks, was officially independent at the end of 1985, providing film programs for Phoenix TV and Macau Satellite TV, and selling TV dramas and variety shows to East Asia through the Oriental Entertainment Distribution Company area.

After careful consideration by the Portuguese and Macau government, Macau TV finally publicly stated that it would accept private capital as a shareholding, but apart from Kang Jianfei, no fool would go and throw money at it.

On New Year's Day, the Portuguese-Macao government and Macao TV Station issued an announcement, announcing that Macao TV Station would be renamed Macao Satellite TV on January 25, 1986, and announced the shareholding structure of the TV station. Among them, the Portuguese and Macao government holds 35% of the shares, Macau Gaming Corporation holds 10%, and the remaining 55% of the TV station shares are owned by Kang Jianfei.

Even if Kang Jianfei has made a plan for the development of the TV station, both the Portuguese and Macao government and the gambling king He Hongsen have no hope for the profitability of the Macao TV station. Since Kang Jianfei is willing to take over, the Portuguese-Macao government and the Macau gaming company are willing to give up their shares.

...

18 Park Road, Jardine's Valley, one of the gambling king's many properties in Hong Kong, where He Chaoqiong, who was six months pregnant, was placed under "house arrest".

He Hongsen intends to match his daughter to marry Kang Jianfei, especially after He Chaoqiong is pregnant. Whether it is traditional concepts or religious reasons, he will not allow his daughter to have an abortion. But about this, He Hongsen has some regrets recently. Kang Jianfei has let go of marriage, but He Chaoqiong, who is pregnant, will not marry.

Pregnancy out of wedlock is not a glorious thing after all. But He Chaoqiong has been pregnant for six months now. Even if He Hongsen agrees to her aborting the child, the best period has passed.

Fortunately, He Chaoqiong has calmed down and didn't cry and cry like when she was just pregnant. Now she is very cooperative with family care and insists on doing some pregnancy exercises every day. There is a great trend of preparing to be a single mother.

In the current situation, He Hongsen has a rather complicated impression of Kang Jianfei. He not only admires Kang Jianfei's talent, but also complains that Kang Jianfei has enlarged his daughter's belly.

As for Kang Jianfei, since the birth of his daughter Kang Zhenqi, he has attached great importance to the child in He Chaoqiong's womb, and he always comes to visit No. 18, Gubai Road once or twice a month.

This time, it was He Hongsen who returned to live in Hong Kong (the gambling king spent two-thirds of his time in Hong Kong, and the luxury houses he bought for his wives are also in Hong Kong). He invited Kang Jianfei to his house for dinner. He planned to return to Macau after the Spring Festival to take care of the business.

After Kang Jianfei entered the door, he took off his coat and handed it to the servant. He took out a small box and said, "Uncle, this is a small gift from me to Arjun. She has never been willing to see me. Please pass it on."

"Arqiong is also really ignorant at all." He Hongsen shook his head and sighed.

Kang Jianfei pretended to be an honest child, and took the initiative to admit his mistake: "It's all my fault, I shouldn't have **** after drinking."

"Oh, let's not talk about it," He Hongsen waved his hand and let Kang Jianfei sit casually. "Your company's "Shushan" sold very well. During the time I went back to Hong Kong, I could see the news of "Shushan" in the newspapers every day."

Kang Jianfei smiled and said, "Just luck."

He Hongsen, like an elder who cares about the career of the younger generation, asked: "I heard that "Shushan" invested 80 million Hong Kong dollars. How much is the global box office now, can you recover the investment?"

Kang Jianfei is still very concerned about the release of "Shushan" during this time. Its box-office data comes as soon as it opens its mouth: "Now "Shushan" has been released in 17 countries and regions around the world, including France, West Germany, Italy, Greece, Belgium, Iceland, the Netherlands, Spain, Portugal, Canada, the United States, and Japan, three days ago. The global box office statistics are 98.73 million."

He Hongsen only knew that "Shushan" sold very well, but he never paid attention to how much box office it took. When he heard 95.73 million, he subconsciously thought that the unit was Hong Kong dollars. He comforted: "The box office of nearly 100 million is already quite a lot, and there are still many areas that have not been released. It should still be able to recover the cost."

Kang Jianfei had to add: "I'm talking about US dollars."

"What?" Yi He Hongsen's net worth was also shocked and asked, "You mean the box office of "Shushan" is more than 90 million US dollars and more than 700 million Hong Kong dollars?"

"Yes," Kang Jianfei nodded. "Nearly half of the $90 million box office came from Japan. You know, the yen has appreciated rapidly in the last year."

Perhaps because the competition in North America's Christmas stalls is too fierce, "Shushan" only received a box office of 12.94 million US dollars in North America, which is not even as good as the previous "Royal Sister" series. (Of course, from another point of view, the North American box office of $12.94 million is actually not bad, and it has been ranked in the top 30 of last year's North American box office list.)

On the contrary, the performance of "Shushan" in Europe is extremely eye-catching. When it is released in various European countries, it can be ranked in the top three of the weekly box office list, as if a Chinese whirlwind has been blowing in Europe.

In Asia, the performance of "Shushan" is simply eye-popping. It sold $1.87 million at the box office in Singapore alone, successfully breaking the record set by "Shaolin Temple" in Singapore.

Especially in Japan, because there is no cultural barrier between the East and the West, the Japanese like "Shushan" far more than Europeans and Americans. This oriental blockbuster caused a sensation in Japan as soon as it was released.

As the world's second largest film market, Japan has been in Japan since 1980 when Kang Jianfei crossed over. For more than 30 years, only 10 of the top 50 Japanese films were Japanese films, and among them Hayao Miyazaki's films There are as many as 4 cartoons. In addition to a few Chinese-language films and 10 Japanese films in the Japanese box office list, the rest are all Hollywood blockbusters.

As a rare Hong Kong blockbuster, "Shushan" not only contains oriental aesthetic taste, but also has Hollywood special effects and heroic adventures. It is simply a magical film tailored for Japanese who like to watch Hollywood blockbusters. In addition, "Shushan" just won the award at the Tokyo Film Festival, which makes it more convenient for the promotion and distribution of this film in Japan.

From Christmas to the first half of spring, "Shushan" smashed 8.8 billion yen at the box office in Japan. Although there is still a big gap from the 15 billion yen box office record set by "et Alien" a few years ago, but It successfully became the second highest-grossing film of all time in Japan.

As for last year's blockbuster "Ran" by Japanese film master Akira Kurosawa, it only received a box office of 1.6 billion yen in Japan, only one-sixth of that of "Shushan".

"Shushan" can be regarded as a lot of money in Japan, because the yen has appreciated rapidly in recent years. In the past 1985, the exchange rate of the yen against the dollar at the beginning of the year was still 255 to 1, and by the end of the year it had risen to 200 to 1. When "Shushan" was painted in Japan, the exchange rate of the yen had soared to 180 to 1.

The box office of 8.8 billion yen is equivalent to 48.78 million in US dollars, which is more than 390 million in Hong Kong dollars.

It can be said that ~lightnovelpub.net~ just talking about the box office in Japan is enough for "Shushan" to recover the cost and make a lot of money.

Generally speaking, it is already very rare for a blockbuster Hong Kong film to exceed 100 million Hong Kong dollars at the global box office. However, "Shushan" has not yet been released in some countries, and the box office has approached more than 100 million US dollars, which is simply outrageous and staggering.

"The next generation is terrifying, the latter is terrifying." He Hongsen couldn't help but sigh, he and Shao Yifu are good friends, so he naturally knows how bad the box office is for Hong Kong films.

The news has not yet been known to the Hong Kong media. Once it is revealed, it is conceivable what kind of sensation it will cause.

After chatting about movies for a while, the topic turned to Macau TV station. He Hongsen asked, "A Fei, are you sure about Macau TV station?"

"Do you know if you try it?" Kang Jianfei laughed.

In another week, Macau Satellite TV will be officially reorganized and broadcast. At this time, the studios and studios of Tseung Kwan O Film and Television City are busy producing TV programs.
