The Hong Kong media's evaluation of Kang Jianfei has become more and more polarized.

Because of his stance towards the mainland government and his hobby of flirting, some people think that Kang Jianfei is a shameless **** with sores on his head and pus on the bottom of his feet; some people regard Kang Jianfei as a genius because of his outstanding achievements in music, movies, and even He also became the richest man in Hong Kong.

When the news that "The Truman World" won the Grand Jury Prize at Cannes came back to Hong Kong, many newspapers reported and reprinted it one after another, saying it was another progress for Hong Kong films to go global. However, some newspapers scoffed at this and took the news of the award in a sour tone, clinging to Kang Jianfei, Zhong Chuhong and Lan Jieying's "disrespectful" behavior in Cannes, believing that they had lost the face of Hong Kong filmmakers.

And the public opinion on the Taiwan side has also been agitated. Dozens of Taiwanese reporters flew to Hong Kong and wanted to interview Lin Qingxia and Lin Fengjiao.

Xu Ke's "Swordsman: The Undefeated in the East" was being filmed at a critical time, when those Taiwanese reporters heard about the location of the film crew and rushed over, making Xu Ke tireless.

The news that Kang Jianfei and James Cameron are about to co-produce a new film, I don't know where it came from. This time, it's not really Kang Jianfei's intention to hype. Cameron just returned to the United States and invited several paleontologists and botanists, and then pulled people from Digital Domain to design dinosaur images. And Kang Jianfei is still considering the casting issue. The production cycle of this film is at least one year, and the publicity work is not in a hurry.

However, the reporters with great abilities still got the news. The entertainment page of "Sing Pao" took the lead in breaking the news: "James Cameron, the international director who directed the "Terminator" series, arrived in Hong Kong recently. It is reported that the purpose of Cameron's trip was It is to discuss the new film shooting plan with Kang Jianfei, and the two may cooperate to shoot a special effects blockbuster."

Originally, Kang Jianfei was concerned by the Hong Kong media because of the news that he won the award in Cannes. Another group of Taiwanese reporters followed him all day to interview him. Now it is suddenly revealed that he is going to collaborate with Cameron on a new film, and Kang Jianfei has once again become the headlines of the entertainment pages of major newspapers.

Not only the reporters, but also inside the Oriental Entertainment Brokerage Company, many brokers have inquired through various channels, hoping that the actors in their hands can play a role in Kang Jianfei's new film.

Until Kang Jianfei stayed at Zhou Huimin's place for the night, Zhou Huimin also asked about the new film, and it turned out that someone was betraying her relationship with her. Kang Jianfei was finally overwhelmed. Begin to launch the early publicity plan of "Jurassic Park", and gradually reveal the exact information through "Daily Daily".

"Exclusive news from this newspaper, Mr. Kang Jianfei confirmed the rumors of cooperation with Cameron. He claimed that the new film is a sci-fi blockbuster."

"Kang Jianfei and Cameron's new film is called "Jurassic Park", the script is from Hollywood screenwriter Michael Clayton, DreamWorks beat 6 Hollywood film companies, from Clayton at a price of 3.6 million US dollars Purchased the rights to this film."

"Jurassic Park had a budget of HK$400 million (US$50 million). A new record for a Hong Kong-made blockbuster."

"..."

A piece of news was announced by "Daily Daily" one after another. It instantly caught the attention of countless people. Even the reporters who came to Hong Kong to interview Lin Qingxia and Lin Fengjiao turned their attention to Kang Jianfei's new film, trying to find out what kind of film could be made with a astronomical budget of 400 million Hong Kong dollars.

Last year, the combined total box office of the two film companies Vientiane and Debao was less than 400 million Hong Kong dollars (including overseas box office). Kang Jianfei now spends 400 million to make a film!

Kang Jianfei is crazy!

This is the first reaction of industry insiders in Hong Kong.

"Next Magazine" sarcastically said in the new issue of the magazine: "When you win a jury award in Cannes, someone is so arrogant that you don't know what to do. Once the special effects blockbuster with an investment of 400 million yuan hits the street, the film company will face devastating consequences. Strike. God wants it to perish. It must first make it mad. International Kang is currently in a state of madness. It is not far from extinction."

"Next" suffered a lot after the reporters resigned, and Kang Jianfei didn't continue to bite. But Li Zhiying did not mean to repent at all. The words of "Next" are still extremely sharp, and even in order to make up for the lack of paparazzi, the editor wrote the article more vicious to attract readers.

In response to the provocation of "One Weekly" again, Kang Jianfei was too lazy to bother with him, and directly announced the ban on "One Weekly": ""One Weekly" is listed as an unpopular media, and its reporters are prohibited from entering Tseung Kwan O Film and Television City for interviews. Oriental Culture and Entertainment Group and its artists and activities also do not accept interviews with Next Magazine."

In another time and space, Li Zhiying is also regarded as a mad dog by many people. After Shao Yifu's TVB TV station was smeared many times, he couldn't bear it and issued a ban on Next Media.

"Next Magazine" is worried about not finding hot news, Kang Jianfei's ban order is in Li Zhiying's favor, and a special issue is published to oppose Kang Jianfei's ban order: "A certain Mr. Kang is worthy of growing up in a dictatorial country, he is just a film company. The boss is just the boss, and he can't tolerate any dissident voices and wants to block a legal media. It is conceivable that if such people are allowed to manage Hong Kong, what a terrible society Hong Kong will become... 97 Return The future is bleak.”

Well, it's just an entertainment ban, but it was turned into the wind by "Next Weekly" and involved in the return of 1997 and the future of Hong Kong. The surnamed Lai is indeed a lot of talented people.

Kang Jianfei found that he had nothing to do with this mad dog. Whether he could win the lawsuit is another matter. Next Magazine will definitely use this lawsuit to hype it up. Any means of assassination and intimidation will not work, because Lai Zhiying is a famous and wealthy businessman, and he also has friendship with some officials of the British Hong Kong government. If he has an accident, Kang Jianfei will also cause a show.

It was only at this moment that Kang Jianfei discovered that the cultural hooligan like Ni Jiao was actually very cute, but the real abomination was the money hooligan like Li Zhiying.

...

"For 400 million Hong Kong dollars to make only one movie, I don't even know the Hong Kong film industry anymore," Shao Yifu put down the newspaper and asked, "Tianlin, is it a mistake to reopen Shaw Brothers? This is not our time."

Wang Tianlin moved his fat body with difficulty, leaned on the armrest of the sofa and said, "Sixth brother, your heart is getting old."

"Yeah, my heart is getting old." Shao Yifu said with a wry smile.

The Shao family's film industry was completely destroyed by the Japanese army. Shao Yifu was 51 years old when he rebuilt the Shaw Brothers Company in Hong Kong.

But now, Shao Yifu is really old, his heart is old, and he can no longer see the world of young people.

In recent years, Shaw Brothers has not produced any works, and occasionally invests in one or two low-budget films. From producers, directors, screenwriters to actors, they are all employees of TVB. These are all petty troubles, and throwing them into the film market will not make waves at all. If you can make a small profit, you have already achieved the expected goal.

Several large-scale leading theaters under the Shaw Brothers Cinema Line were originally leased to Kang Jianfei. Now that the 8-year lease is about to expire, Shao Daheng finally has the idea of ​​revival of Shaw Brothers.

In other words, Shao Yifu has never let go of his obsession with movies, and the prosperity of Hong Kong films in recent years has tempted him to return to the film industry. Seeing that the lease period of the Shaw Brothers Cinema was approaching, Shao Yifu finally couldn't help being lonely, and asked his old friend Wang Tianlin to discuss the reopening of Shaw Brothers.

Wang Tianlin used to have great power in TVB, but in the past few years, Fang Yihua has overseen him, and he occasionally shoots one or two TV dramas to eat.

The reason why Shao Yifu approached Wang Tianlin to discuss reopening the Shaw Brothers was not only because of his ability, but also because Wang Tianlin had a son named Wang Jing.

Wang Jing has long been ranked among the top-grossing directors in Hong Kong. What is even more commendable is that he can use a small amount of money to make a bad film that can make money in a very short time. Shao Yifu just fell in love with Wang Jing's special ability, and wanted to use Wang Tianlin's relationship to bring Wang Jing back to Shaw Brothers to make a film.

Wang Tianlin wasted several years on TVB, and his friendship with Shao Yifu was running out. At this time, he smiled and said, "Ah Xiang said that."

Shao Yifu nodded slightly, he could naturally hear what Wang Tianlin meant, and said, "Shaw Brothers definitely can't use the previous set. I'll pay him the director's remuneration according to the market price, and promise not to let Ah Xiang suffer."

"Sixth brother has always been fair, and I will tell him about this when Axiang returns home." Wang Tianlin said with a smile.

Wang Jing soon learned of the incident on the phone. He heard that Shaw Brothers wanted to invite him back to film. Wang Jing thought that his ears were wrong. After realizing what was going on, he immediately called Kang Jianfei to report.

"Shao Daheng is going to make a comeback?" Kang Jianfei laughed when he heard this~lightnovelpub.net~ He didn't take this matter to heart at all.

The lion is old, and its claws are no longer sharp, and now it is the world of young male lions.

Compared with the signal of Shaw Brothers returning to the film industry, Kang Jianfei is more concerned about the expiring contracts of several large theaters leased to him by Shaw Brothers, and the Oriental Cinema Line must invest in building new theaters to replace them.

However, this is also easy to solve. Anyway, Kang Jianfei is not short of money now.

And the few Shaw Brothers theaters rented are outdated, and the future trend is modern multiplex cinemas. Even if Shaw Brothers does not take back the cinemas, Kang Jianfei will renovate all the cinemas under the Oriental Cinema Line in the next few years.

"Brother Fei, Director Cameron sent a fax just now, I hope you can take a look." Li Meifeng came in holding the folder.

Kang Jianfei opened the folder and saw that James Cameron had sent more than ten designs of dinosaurs, which was his biggest achievement in recent times. (To be continued..)u
