Chapter 804: Creating a New Category of Movies!
"Jun Shao! In the United States, you are becoming more and more handsome and beautiful!"
After entering the door, Hong Jinbao first said Happy New Year to Yin Jun, and immediately came to a sycophant.
As a result, he saw Yin Jun shaking his head at him with a sigh on his face.
Hong Jinbao was stunned for a moment, looked himself up and down, and didn't find anything strange.
But he was also nervous: "Junshao, I, what's wrong with me?"
"Brother Sanbao, you have gained weight again. Yin Jun sighed: "If you have always been like this, then do you know that your acting path will become narrower and narrower!"
In the past and present life, you don't say that the protagonist has to be a handsome guy, in fact, Huang Bo can come out like that, and his appearance is really not too important.
But you have to at least look like an actor and maintain a good figure in order to adapt to more roles.
If "Wrestling, Dad" is given to Hong Jinbao to play, he can only play the protagonist after the age of 40, and he can't play the young protagonist full of muscles at all.
Therefore, only people like Aamir Khan, who are cruel to themselves, are suitable for playing various leading roles.
After Hong Jinbao was 40 years old, because of various restrictions on his image, he couldn't get more good roles, coupled with the weakness of Xiangjiang Movie itself, so he was silent for more than ten years, and finally even if he became popular again by relying on the outbreak of the mainland box office, it was only No. 2 at most.
If he can control his body and kung fu during the period of "Lucky Star Series" and "The Owl and Dumbo", he dare not say that he will surpass Cheng Long in the world, and he will definitely be one of the best in Asia.
Hearing Yin Jun say this, Hong Jinbao was a little embarrassed.
His self-control is not very strong, and after he became famous, his figure became fat when he looked at it.
It's okay now, but going to see him in five or ten years will really scare people to death.
He has not yet become one of the best action superstars in Xiangjiang, and he is only in the enlightenment stage when he gets fat, so he was said by Yin Jun, he was a little depressed, but he began to be vigilant instead.
Who is Yin Jun?
The richest man in the entertainment industry in Hong Kong!
If Shao Liuye used to have assets in Xiangjiang, Singapore, and Malaysia, and could stabilize Yin Jun, now Yin Jun has spent three billion US dollars in Hollywood to buy three companies!
With such a pattern, such a grade, and such power, who else can compare?
Since Yin Jun said so, if he doesn't make changes, I'm afraid that the good role in the future will not be his turn.
Although his junior brother Yuan Biao is very obedient, if he plays more good roles, he will definitely be poached by other film companies, and if he can't stand up at that time, Garbo will be finished!
Hung Jinbao still loves money very much, and there are almost no people in Xiangjiang who don't love money.
Therefore, opening a film company to make money is far more profitable than being an actor, and Hung Jinbao has tasted the sweetness and is unwilling to give up again.
But if Yin Jun gave up on him, basically his film company would come to an end - busy all year round, having to manage so many people, driving so many labors, and only earning one or two million in the end, it would be better to shoot a few movies by himself!
Thinking of this, Hong Jinbao hurriedly promised: "Jun Shao, don't worry, I have a weight loss plan recently, and I believe that by May, I will be able to lose less than 160 pounds." ”
Hong Jinbao is not tall, about 173 centimeters, and now he already has more than 180 pounds, and he can lose more than 20 pounds in three months, and his determination is enough, after all, he can't do nothing but go to the gym.
"Brother Sanmao, you came to me today, there should be something, right?" Yin Jun smiled noncommittally, "If you have something to say, just say it." ”
"Eh!" Hong Jinbao coughed lightly, "Jun Shao, you see that everyone has been very busy recently, but I am a little dumb here, I really don't know what to do! A few days ago, I heard that Lao Wu asked you for a set of books." It is said that our relationship is also very good, Brother Fan and I only drank a few days ago, and mentioned that we were not famous before. He said, Jun Shao, you are the most righteous person!"
Yin Jun sounded a little funny, he said for a long time, but he didn't get to the point.
If it weren't for Yin Jun's decision to make Xiangjiang Movies start to make a big effort this year, he would definitely still watch how Hong Jinbao acted aggrievedly.
Hong Jinbao is a very smart person, at the beginning of last year, he heard from others, Yin Jun was very dissatisfied with his slamming, he immediately increased the labor for Yuan Biao, Qi Xiaofu, Lin Zhengying, these friends, and the bonuses were also a lot more, and suddenly in the eyes of people, he became righteous and thin.
is like this kind of person who is measured and knows how to make corrections, Yin Jun appreciates it.
"Alright. Yin Jun raised his hand with a smile, "Brother Sanmao, what do you think of the "Ghost Fighting Ghost" that I wrote for Jiahe at the beginning and starred in you?"
"It's good!" Hong Jinbao said without thinking.
"Then do you think if we make a series of supernatural aspects, will it be a bit marketable?" Yin Jun asked.
Only then did Hong Jinbao begin to recall the plot of "Ghost Fighting", which involved Maoshan ghost catching technique, and the plot was quite terrifying.
"Jun Shao, if it's a ghost movie, will it affect many people's enthusiasm for watching movies?" Hong Jinbao said hesitantly, "After all, there are many people who can't accept ghosts." ”
"That's why I said it's a supernatural series. Yin Jun said: "It's a bit scary for the Taoist priest to catch ghosts, so let's change the way and make zombie movies!"
"Zombie movie?" Hong Jinbao hurriedly shook his hand: "Jun Shao, this can't be done! This genre has been filmed badly, whoever does it will die!"
Hung Jinbao is so panicked and resistant, which is very well-founded.
Many people don't know about old Xiangjiang movies, they only know that they watch Lin Zhengying's "Mr. Zombie", and they think that it is the beginning of Xiangjiang zombie movies.
Actually, this thinking is wrong.
Xiangjiang began to make zombie films as early as the 70s.
Shaw Brothers' "Zombie Revenge", "Maoshan Zombie Fist", and "Seven Golden Corpses" are all representatives.
But these movies were a little fresh at the beginning, and then they all hit the streets.
Especially in 74, "Seven Golden Corpses", which was co-produced with Shaw Brothers and British Film Company, cost millions of dollars, but in the end, it almost didn't make Shao Liuye vomit out a mouthful of old blood.
Since then, no one has dared to make zombie movies again.
It wasn't until the end of 1985 that Lin Zhengying's "Mr. Zombie" came out, which really changed people's views on zombie films.
Therefore, Yin Jun was not surprised by Hung Jinbao's reaction, "The zombie film I want to shoot is something they have never made before, and it is also what you are good at, mainly expressed in the form of kung fu comedy supernatural films." In this way, the effect will be completely different. ”
"But ......" Hong Jinbao is still a little unconfident.
"Okay, if you don't want to do it, then this film is mine, you just need to lend it to me, in addition to the salary I pay, I will give you another 1 million, how about it?" Yin Jun said directly.
Borrow someone!?
Hong Jinbao was stunned, "Jun Shao, didn't I star?"
"You're not fit for this movie. Yin Jun shook his head, "What I want is the protagonist of a middle-aged person." I think Brother Ying's image is okay, just put on a little makeup to make him look older. ”
"Brother Ying, Lin Zhengying?" Hong Jinbao's eyes widened, "With his ugly and rigid face, can he still be the protagonist?"
He also blurted it out, but he was telling the truth.
Lin Zhengying looks a little like a gangster, coupled with the muscles all over his body, it is proper to be a villain, how can he be the hero?
But no one could have imagined that as long as Lin Zhengying's appearance was made older, and his fierce eyebrows were covered, a classic image of a cool but humorous Maoshan Taoist priest was born.
Since then, in the Xiangjiang film industry, no one can surpass Lin Zhengying in terms of zombie films and zombie Taoists.
The fact of the previous life is that the zombie film was reborn because of Lin Zhengying, but died because of Lin Zhengying's departure.
When Yin Jun watched zombie movies when he was a child, he also didn't watch Lin Zhengying, and many profiteers used Lin Zhengying's avatar on the disc, but there was no Lin Zhengying in it, so he deceived many loyal fans, including Yin Jun, of course.
Such a classic childhood memory, it is naturally impossible for teenagers to let it dissipate.
The protagonist of "Mr. Zombie" can only be Lin Zhengying.
"You don't care about this, how about it, which one do you choose?" Yin Jun said: "I give you 1 million for one movie, or you give me 20 million, and I will give you the scripts for four zombie movies." ”
"20 million!?"
Hong Jinbao swallowed hard, "Jun Shao, you better kill me, where do I have so much money?"
He has earned a lot of money over the years, but he has used a lot of food, drink and entertainment, and some time ago, he listened to the persuasion of others and bought a few houses, and at most he still has two or three million in his hand, where is it enough?
"I owe it first, and give it to me one by one. Yin Jun said seriously, "If you dare not pay back the debt you owe me, I will ask the people of the Qilin security team to visit you one by one." ”
"Don't, don't, where do I dare?" Hong Jinbao's scalp was numb.
From time to time, Kylin TV will shoot some highlights of the training status of the Kylin security team, as well as the frequent running patrols in the New Territories to help the people do things.
Their intention is not to deter anyone, but to show the outside world that the development of the New Territories is closely related to the Kirin Group.
But a lot of people don't think so.
Nima, it's simply a posture opened by the army, who is not afraid?
There was a fire, a building, more than a dozen floors, there were no tools, more than a dozen people from the Kirin security team climbed up in three minutes, and finally successfully rescued the people in the house...... is so strong, the club bosses suddenly feel that they don't seem to be very safe wherever they live.
Hong Jinbao calmed down, thought for a moment, and finally made a decision: "Okay! Junshao! I'll let it go! I bought these four scripts!!"
Yin Jun's book has never failed.
If he dares to say that he wants 5 million to get a script, he must be absolutely sure that he can earn more than 5 million!
Thinking about how much money "Best Partner" has made, Hung Jinbao has enough confidence.
"Wait. Yin Jun said calmly: "It's not enough to have money, I have a few conditions, you have to agree." ”
"You say!" The big head has already entered, and Hong Jinbao is not bad at this.
"First, you're going to lend me someone, and I'm going to use him for my films. The boy said.
"Your movie?" Hong Jinbao suddenly said with a shy face: "Do you think I can do it?"
"There's no drama in this, it's just an executive assistant director. Yin Jun smiled, "I want Yuan Kui, you can send him over!"
Hung Jinbao hesitated.
Although he is only an assistant director, this is the first movie Yin Jun made by himself!
If you mix up a position in it, and the movie will be a big hit in the future, this is a good qualification!
But then I think about it, no matter how good other people's movies are, they are also someone else's, and they still have to do their own work and do their own film company, which is the most important thing.
Thinking about this, Hong Jinbao bowed his head and said, "I'll talk to him when I go back." ”
Most of the people in Qixiaofu are now working with Hong Jinbao.
Cheng Long's side has not yet completely gotten up, and secondly, he also has a group of people who follow him, and those people are not so harmonious with Qi Xiaofu.
Yuan Kui has been working with Hong Jinbao as an action director and a dragon and tiger martial artist, and has also been an assistant director several times, so he can be regarded as experienced.
"Brother Ying is not only the starring role, I am interested in letting him direct it himself, you just do a good job of supervising and dispatching auxiliary work. Yin Jun said, "Brother Ying is the only male lead, I want a place for a supporting actress for Jiahui." I also chose his two apprentices in the film, and you can decide the rest of the roles yourself. ”
"No problem. ”
Hong Jinbao patted his chest and said.
If someone else wants to insert people and point fingers in his movies, Hong Jinbao will definitely not be happy.
But it was Yin Jun who spoke, so that's another matter.
Who doesn't know that Yin Jun's vision of people is first-class and good, and it is the guarantee of the box office?
Yin Jun is doing this to add a big selling foundation to Hung Jinbao's play!
Hung Jinbao really guessed right.
Yin Jun is indeed the best actor to introduce him.
The ninth uncle is Lin Zhengying, which naturally goes without saying.
Miss Ren is naturally Guan Zhilin, originally Yin Jun wanted to use Wen Bixia, but she is a little younger, and Yin Jun is optimistic about her development into an acting school, so this role is still for Guan Zhilin.
The honest literary talent, that is, the one played by Xu Guanying, Yin Jun decided to use Wu Mengda.
Qiusheng played by Qian Xiaohao, who is agile and clever, and this role Yin Jun was directly handed over to Liang Chaowei.
Liu Dehua's face looks like a decent character, and Liang Chaowei is now a funny character, so it's better to ask him to adapt to comedy first.
With so many popular actors and stars joining, compared to the previous version, it has increased a lot of power!
