Chapter 206 Can I still get scalper tickets for watching a movie?

Night gradually fell.

Near a Wanjia supermarket in Beijing, a large group of children were still playing like crazy, running and playing inside and outside the supermarket.

When some people saw a large number of staff coming out of the supermarket and hanging some font banners, they gradually gathered around to watch the excitement.

Gao Yuanyuan still followed her brother, reading and asking, "What does it say? What does it say?"

Brother Gao looked impatient, "You can't read it yourself? You don't know how to read?"

After complaining, he explained, "Hey, the theater on the fourth floor of Wanjia has been renovated? It will open at eight o'clock tomorrow morning. Wow, we can watch movies in it. A ticket costs 30 cents, which is not expensive. !”

"Today is Monday, but it will be National Day soon..."

After pumping his fists a few times in excitement, Mr. Gao decisively called on some of the younger ones to run towards the fourth floor. The anxious eight-year-old beauty also raised her short legs and chased after them.

When a group of children rushed up to the fourth floor, they found that the fourth floor was already crowded with people. Not only were people wearing Wanjia security uniforms patrolling, there were also police officers in police uniforms maintaining order.

There are really too many people!

Over at the ticket counter, someone grabbed the loudspeaker and shouted more than once, "Calm down, everyone, the showing of Jurassic Park won't start until tomorrow, not tonight."

In response to such words, many people also responded.

"Before you show it for a fee, don't you need to find some people to try it out? Try the machine or something? We can help for free."

"That's right. There are six screening halls that can accommodate more than a thousand people. You have to at least show a few shows in advance to test the equipment. You can't go to the charging section and watch something go wrong, which will delay everyone's movie viewing, right?"

"I've heard that there are enough air conditioning and heating pipes inside. Let us experience it first."

…………

At the end of September 1987, the autumn tiger was still raging.

Although Wanjia has halls on the first, second and third floors, the air-conditioning blown by the central air conditioner is not weak, but... there are so many people coming and going, so many people gathering, and the presence of more people makes the atmosphere messy. There is always a tendency for the temperature to continue to rise.

Everyone feels that it is better and more comfortable to go into separate screening rooms and enjoy the air conditioning.

The projection manager who grabbed the microphone laughed angrily, "Thank you for your kindness, we have already conducted internal previews many times in advance!"

"There are so many people and chaos, not to mention petty theft, it can also easily cause a safety stampede. Unrelated people should leave as soon as possible. It's eight o'clock tomorrow..."

Just persuading and arguing.

After 8 o'clock in the evening, all other floors were closed for rest. The fourth floor was still brightly lit and air-conditioned, and a large number of people gathered.

Because the branch also has an evening policy, the six screening rooms collectively play a few rounds of movies until tomorrow (Jurassic Park), which is considered the official evening screening.

Wanjia’s internal employees, including family members, can watch movies for free.

Scheduling films? Of course it's not Jurassic, but old movies that have been released in mainland China before, such as (Super Body), (A Chinese Ghost Story Series), (The Love Between Ghosts and Humans), (The King of Flowers) and so on.

Many of these old films are circulating in the video tape market, and many people have watched them more than once.

As soon as this information came out, naturally many people from the Wan family circle came to try out the screening and watch the movie. Although there were signs prohibiting smoking during the screening at the entrance to the cinema on the fourth floor and in the passage between the screening rooms to avoid contaminating the internal air circulation. signboard.

However, in the Wanjia employee system, you can still bring melon seeds, popcorn, drinks, etc. from the employee home on the fourth floor to watch and eat at the same time.

It was under such circumstances that Brother Gao sneaked in with his younger sister... He had already started school and had evening self-study, but the situation in college was different. After chatting with the teacher in the new semester, he refused to go to morning and evening self-study. It's enough to study by yourself and take care of your sister.

After experiencing a super comfortable and superior movie-watching experience, after watching a re-release of a big movie (super body), Brother Gao was shocked, "Cool, it's really cool, even though I saw it on the video tape , watching it again, I still feel..."

"Super Body" was released in 1985, when he was only 12 years old. Although he had seen it, he felt that "Super Body" was super refreshing at the time, but when he rewatched it when he was 14, his personal feeling seemed to be different.

Gao Yuanyuan was also stunned and didn't blink the whole time. Looking at the people in the screening room who were getting up and walking out one after another, or walking in from outside, she whispered, "It's almost ten o'clock. Is it time to go home?"

In their family, both parents are highly educated and talented. They are usually busy with work and their time at home is unstable. On a daily basis, the senior brother takes care of the younger sister, and the junior high school student takes care of the elementary school student.

Brother Gao said decisively, "Why go back? If you are sleepy, sleeping here is more comfortable than at home. Let's go for a walk and watch a Chinese Ghost Story. Watching movies on the big screen and small screen, the experience is really different."

“It’s free, no money required, and it’s such a comfortable way to watch movies. It’s so cool!”

Before Wanjia Cinema came out, watching movies in the hot summer meant five, six, seven, eight, or thousands of people crowded into a large screening room. Some smoked, drank, ate stinky tofu, and took off their shoes to show their athlete's foot. Body odor...

It’s a chaotic mess, and when the weather is in the 30s or 40s, the most you can do is bring a paper fan to fan yourself with some hot air.

There are two to three hundred people sitting in a screening room, sitting on comfortable sofas, enjoying the abundant air conditioning and ventilation ventilation ducts, watching movies. Occasionally, patrolmen will come in. If they find someone smoking, they will go up and persuade them to put it out. Lose.

This is for kids...and not just kids!

But many adults have brought epoch-making movie-watching experiences.

Then, Brother Gao and Gao Yuanyuan quickly discovered that when they ran to the A Chinese Ghost Story 1 hall to watch the movie, the place was full of people.

The screening room where I diverted to watch the second film was also full. Not only were the seats full, but there were also people standing in the aisle to watch.

As the time got later and later, many people heard the news and knew that Wanjia's screening room would not be closed tonight. More and more people came to kill them. Even the sofa area in the ticket hall where the audience rested, there were people sitting there. Read books, chat, etc. there.

This is the capital city. Even though it is still a suburb at present and belongs to the concept of urban-rural fringe, it is still a place where talents from all over the country gather together.

Most of them live in Datongpu Hotel and Guest House. Living in those places is really not as comfortable as Wanjia.

Let’s just say that the Datongpu Hotel has squat toilets and even dry toilets. There are even dilapidated wash basins that require you to fetch water yourself. On the fourth floor of Wanjia, there are ample public toilets. Although they are not toilets, they are flush and have single rooms. The partitions are much cleaner than many hotels.

It has its own tap water hand wash basin, free hand sanitizer, etc., and there is also a free boiling water room with unlimited self-service...

Wait a minute, you bring a mat and lie down on the ground. In addition to making a little noise, you also have to wash and tidy up after sleeping. It's much more enjoyable than most hotels.

The most important thing is that you are always in the lobby or other areas, there is no charge!

More and more people are coming here, and knowing the movies shown in the six screening rooms, they can go in and watch them casually. There is no charge on the night of the trial screening, just to check and test the quality of the stable screening.

Of course, more and more people will watch movies for free.

It was under such circumstances that Gao Xiaoge and Gao Yuanyuan could no longer find seats after coming out of the Super Body Screening Hall.

He couldn't find it, and after being depressed for a while, Brother Gao finally found a few boys from the same compound and went home together.

About the same time.

On the fifth floor, as soon as Manager Du put down the phone, he saw the secretary knocking on the door and walking in, "Boss, I don't know who has opened the door leading to the third floor through the walking stairs. Now there are many people running in on the third floor..."

Manager Du directly slapped the table and cursed, "Fuck, let the police and security go arrest the person immediately, and pay attention to see if anything is lost."

At night, Wanjia is in a closed rest area. Those who go to and from the theater are of course the elevators that go straight up and down. Other elevators that go up and down, as well as the walking stairs, are closed and locked.

Various stores, electrical appliance shops, etc. on the second and third floors are also closed, but when they are closed... there is no one inside, and there are still a lot of products!

It is of course illegal for talents to directly unlock the door and go down to the third floor.

The secretary smiled bitterly and ran to do things, and the theater department manager also came in, "Mr. Du, such a big public waiting area can hardly accommodate people... The aisles of the screening hall are also full of people, should we come up with a rule? ?”

"For example, non-movie-watching groups can't enter the theater area? There are too many people who use the air conditioning or even plan to rest inside. When there are more people, it's easy to get confused."

"There were still 30 security guards and more than a dozen police patrolling the venue, so there was no big trouble. If this continues, the police force and security guards will not be enough."

"There are six elevators that go directly to the fourth and first floors. They go up and down without stopping."

Manager Du scratched his hair worriedly, "I know that too many people can cause trouble, but the headquarters issued an order not to forcefully stop people who come to use the air conditioning and heating in the hot summer and cold winter. For this reason, each branch has recruited 50 extra security guards. "

"Let's watch it first. Let's run it for a while and then check the situation. If we really can't bear it anymore, we can only ask the police for help."

"I heard that many branches in Haowan, Hong Kong are opened directly near the police station and police station. We should also find an opportunity to try to ask for help from the police station."

"The current situation is still good. In autumn, and indeed in winter, not to mention people using the heater outside, the family circle within our group will overcrowd the employee home area."

"At that time, we can only ask the police for help, or let some internal employees who use heating and air conditioning, energetic guest security guards maintain order, and pay a wave of overtime pay."

This is also an expense that Mainland CEO Yu Qinghai has long proposed and has been approved by Zhao Donghuai. Even if each new store recruits 50 additional security guards and gives three shifts a rest, each shift will only have a dozen more people.

The benefits of heating and air conditioning during the hot summer and cold winter are still far from enough to cope with the situation. Internal employees, including family members, who come to use heating and air conditioning and are willing to wear security uniforms and work must have corresponding fees.

When he mentioned this, the theater department manager was pleasantly surprised, "You're also here to get the heating and air conditioning, but also overtime pay?"

This is so exciting! At this stage in the Mainland, even the big bosses at the city and county level, how many people can't afford air conditioning and heating when working? ?

Manager Du nodded, "Not only will there be overtime pay, but there will also be extra meals. Those who work the night shift will definitely get free meals. Now we are still studying whether to use the Huazhi Hotel buffet model or open a large canteen."

Although no Huazhi Hotel has been officially built in the mainland, it has been built on Hong Kong Island. Every guest who stays can enjoy a free breakfast in the morning by showing their room card.

The buffet is unlimited, with steamed buns, fried dough sticks, xiaolongbao, various rice soups, and seasonal vegetables and side dishes, including Western-style bread, butter, dipping sauces, etc. This is the model that has been opened in Tung Chung.

Of course, guests can also order individually from the menu in the hotel room at lunch or dinner. The ordering that requires payment is the same as in an ordinary hotel.

The large canteen and the small canteen are all basic configurations.

The variety of breakfast buffets here in the capital is quite good, but the buffet catering for extra meals in the evening is more ordinary... People from all over the world gather in the capital, and the taste preferences of different places are different.

The theater department manager was even more surprised, "How much does a night shift cost?"

Mr. Du took a cigarette and lit it, "We are studying whether it is 1.5 times or twice the shift salary. Also, this requires a temporary worker system..."

The theater department manager was trembling with excitement, "Double the class salary? Damn it, Lao Du, what you said makes my boss come here to work as a temporary worker."

The monthly salary of a first-level official employee in Beijing is 200 yuan. How much does it cost to work a day's work? 7 yuan? No, take the upcoming October as an example. The three major festivals of National Day, Mid-Autumn Festival and Double Ninth Festival theoretically have holidays ranging from four to five days, and then four weekends have eight days off.

In total, in October, every Wanjia employee has more than ten days of holidays!

It's just that on the day of the holiday, there will be a systematic adjustment of days off. You go to work today and take a day off to relax after the holiday.

In theory, Wanjia employees only have 17 or 18 working days in October. They work eight hours a day and earn a monthly salary of 200 yuan... The average daily salary for a single working day is more than 10 yuan.

So if the relatives of Wanjia employees who come to take advantage of the heating and air-conditioning benefits at night can serve as temporary security guards to maintain order, it will cost 15 yuan or 20 yuan for a single shift? And free meal subsidies?

If you work ten night shifts, you can earn more than if you work one month's shift in many large factories.

A night shift costs 15 or 20 yuan, which is 150 or 200 yuan for ten days, which is far greater than the monthly salary of many large companies.

The theater department manager originally gave up his position as a cadre with salary from a public theater and took a leave of absence without pay to change jobs. He also belongs to the leadership and started as a third-level worker.

But of his three children, the eldest and second child all graduated or dropped out of school and are currently unemployed!

Manager Du smiled bitterly, "The treatment is so good. You are not the only one who wants to be a temporary security guard. I have been pestered by a group of relatives recently..."

The theater department manager was excited, "Yeah, such great benefits?" More than just the closest blood relative who can take care of a family? ?

Manager Du took a puff of cigarette again and sighed, "Don't worry, when the plan is officially finalized and ready, temporary security guards will be needed for both the morning and middle shifts during the day. Without a circle of relatives with a good job, as long as there are good guys, we should be able to Arrange a lot of people.”

"Our family circle of thousands of families, including Boss Tie's family circle at this stage, can't compare to our welfare."

The closer it is to holidays, weekends, etc., the more people are taking a break. At this time, it is only 1987, and there is a lack of entertainment projects for the masses. Watching movies on the fourth floor of Wanjia is the most fashionable project.

Come across a good movie that the whole family can watch together...

Of course it will explode.

This is why a complex with a straight-up, straight-down elevator that only connects to the cinema on the fourth floor has six large elevators.

For example, branches in the bustling areas of Beijing, Shanghai, and Yangcheng usually have eight straight-up and straight-down elevators working together.

As soon as the theater chain opened, more than 300,000 branches would be able to double the number of security staff.

In the past, a store had two to three hundred direct employees, and the number of security guards in each store has been expanded to 50. In order to cope with the need for air conditioning and heating, and to further contribute to the welfare of citizens, I am afraid that each store will have to recruit dozens or hundreds of temporary security guards.

………………

A new day has arrived.

In the theater area on the fourth floor, Manager Du and the theater department manager looked at the large number of people leaving one after another. They were a little bit dumbfounded because many people were leaving with their luggage.

They even saw people working in the public rest area at four or five in the morning, sitting on the ground spreading documents and other things on the floor, and cups of free boiled water and strong tea were constantly being refilled.

When daybreak comes, I clean up, go wash up, go up to the fifth floor to have breakfast, or eat snacks outside, and that's it.

This is the first night of the trial operation of the theater, and that's it. It's conceivable that as the trend sweeps across, more and more people will use this place as a free hotel.

Manager Du sighed again, "I've seen too many people laying floors in big hospitals. I never dreamed that supermarkets could do this..."

"Let's go down to the first floor and have some food. The war officially begins today!!"

…………

At around 6 p.m. on the 29th, Brother Gao, his short-legged Gao Yuanyuan, and a group of young people from the family home ran to Wanjia to watch a movie.

After a hard day, school is finally over.

After rushing to the fourth floor and queuing up to buy tickets among a large number of people... finally buying their own movie tickets, Brother Gao looked devastated, "How can we not sell standing tickets?"

"How can we not sell standing tickets? I can watch it standing or sitting in the aisle."

Gao Yuanyuan said excitedly, "What time is it, what time is it?"

Brother Gao even collapsed, "What time is it? Tickets are for 9 a.m. on October 1st!"

Xiao Yuanyuan was dumbfounded, "The day after tomorrow?? This is also..."

The officially opened Wanjia Cinema Line does not allow people to stand and sit in the aisles and corridors to watch, and only sells a few tickets for how many seats there are. It is really true. When you come to buy tickets on the spot, in just one day, Jurassic Movie Movie tickets in the park were sold out for a few days.

The reason for this is because today is a working day!

If it’s a big holiday, you’ll probably be scheduled four or five days later.

"Let's go downstairs and play. When you've had enough, go home and finish your homework and wait for the holidays. I bought six tickets in one go and the whole family can watch it together."

The Gao family's father and mother who carry the flag are also people with a monthly salary of one to two hundred or more in key units. Six movie tickets only cost one yuan and eighty cents, which is easily affordable.

Then, a group of friends were walking, and people on all floors could be heard cheering and commenting on the (Jurassic Park) movie.

"It's so shocking!"

"After watching the movie, I was dumbfounded. I was dumbfounded throughout the entire movie."

"It's unbelievable. Those dinosaurs were so real, I was so scared that I thought there were real prehistoric monsters resurrected."

"I watched the first show at 8 o'clock in the morning. After watching it, I wanted to buy a ticket to watch it again, but the ticket I bought was already for 10 o'clock tonight. Damn it, it sold out too fast!"

"Hey, you have a 10 o'clock movie ticket in your hand? Brother, I'll pay fifty cents, how about selling it to me?"

"Man, I'll give you sixty cents! I can't wait to see this movie!"

………………

Along the way, Brother Gao was shocked again, "Damn it, can I still get scalper tickets for watching a movie?"

He suddenly discovered that the six tickets he bought were sold in the morning on the National Day holiday, and the time around 9 o'clock was the right time...

It is estimated that when the tickets are sold, they may cost more than just a few cents per ticket.

………………

The sun shines on a new day.

When Azhen left with Tao Guo in her mouth and full of knowledge, Zhang Min came over in confusion and said, "Boss, the data feels a little wrong. Jurassic Park was released in the mainland yesterday, and the box office for the whole day was more than one million yuan?"

Zhao Donghuai laughed, "It's normal, there's nothing wrong with it, because our theater chain hasn't been fully rolled out yet."

Kung Fu Panda was released in public theaters and made a box office of 120 million yuan in one or two months. Although there are no accurate and detailed statistics and endorsements, it still represents hundreds of millions of moviegoers.

But the biggest source of this data is the screening model of public theater chains moving to rural areas!

Not to mention that almost every county has public theaters where people can watch movies. Even in towns and villages, there are projectionists riding bicycles to show movies.

What about Wanjia? Speaking of, there are more than 300 branches and 2,000 big screens. The first show started at 8 o'clock yesterday morning, and the venues were full. It is said that the movie tickets were sold until the National Day holiday.

Scalpers have appeared.

But this means that cities such as Jingshangyang, the mountain city of Jinmen, the provincial capitals of Jiabianliang, and Luoyi, as well as urban areas or urban-rural fringe areas, contribute four to five million movie-going purchasing power a day.

Four to five million people a day, equivalent to 90% of Hong Kong's total population, went to see it.

If you calculate based on the ticket price of a movie in Hong Kong, the box office on the first day is HKD 60 million to HKD 75 million, but a movie ticket in the Mainland is only 30 cents, which is more than 1 million yuan.

In the mainland, this is... Take Henan Province as an example. Among the more than ten prefecture-level cities, only the provincial capital and Bianliang and Luoyi have thousands of branches. The total number of branches is only a dozen.

Those three cities also contributed hundreds of thousands of box office tickets in one day, but the number of hundreds of thousands was just a drizzle compared to the huge base in Henan Province. Too many people didn't want to watch it, but they had no place to watch it.

"Don't overestimate the initial data, but look at the long-term. It was more than one million yesterday, and it will definitely still be more than one million today. Maybe one month later, it will still contribute more than one million box office every day. After two months, the official data will be There is hope that it will exceed 100 million.”

Yesterday, there were more than one million, four to five million people watching the movie. It opened at 8 o'clock and there were only 7 shows in the whole day.

Starting from today, the 30th, there will be 11 screenings in 24 hours a day. You said in the middle of the night... In the second half of the night, there are so many people going to Beijing from Tiannanhai to the north, using Wanjia Cinemas as a free hotel. .

Those people will be the main moviegoers between 0:00 and 8:00 am.

Zhang Min suddenly realized, "So that's it. I understand. The initial data is a bit low and not as good as expected. It will be easier to shock people's hearts by showing the data in the newspaper after a month of screening."

In the past, the box office of mainland theaters lacked detailed and authoritative statistics, so the performance was not very good. The Hong Kong film industry did not pay enough attention and care to the mainland market.

But as soon as the official and accurate statistics of Wanjia Cinemas came out, Zhao Films was really able to bring back the box office money after paying taxes.

Those who aim at the big mainland market in the future will definitely have countless followers.

They can't keep up with epoch-making big productions like (Jurassic Park), but ordinary comedy kung fu movies can also make money, and that's enough.

………………

the capital.

Jiang Wen, Shi Ke, Ji Chunhua and others walked out of a Wanjia Cinema. Jiang Wen looked at the watch and it was almost 12 o'clock. He suddenly smiled and said, "Teacher Ji, let's go. I'll treat you to a meal?"

"Damn, it's so shocking!"

"Although I have already experienced that kind of shock in the (super body) movie, (Jurassic Park) has increased the shock several times."

"That's it. Countless media said it is a big movie comparable to Hollywood's Star Wars series, an epoch-making masterpiece. It's not an exaggeration."

Many academics who are interested in art look down on commercial films.

Jurassic Park is a solid commercial popcorn blockbuster, but at this stage, there are still few art masters or critics who dare to openly criticize or discriminate against this commercial film.

If you dare to complain, be careful if someone throws a brick at your window in the middle of the night.

While walking on the road, I was put in a sack and repaired.

Following Jiang Wen's words, Ji Chunhua smiled brightly, "Brother Wen, it's my honor to treat you."

Jiang Wen smiled apologetically, "No, no, Brother Ji, you are a world-class star now. You could be so low-key filming in our Red Sorghum crew before, and you are already taking the lead to help us."

At the end of March, Zhang Yimou went to Hollywood once to accept awards and other routines. When he came back in April, he started filming a movie (Red Sorghum), starring Jiang Wen, Shi Ke and Ji Chunhua.

At that time, Jiang Wen, Shi Ke, etc. were not considered big stars.

The biggest names in the crew are Zhang Yimou, the best director at the Cannes International Film Festival, and Ji Chunhua, the villain in the (super-body) movie. You mean villain? What happened to the villain?

Al Pacino also relied on his villains and club bosses to be nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actor.

It's just that Super Body didn't win many awards and honors that year. At that time, Zhao Donghuai's Zhao had relatively few friends in the award circle and didn't exert much effort. However, Super Body was indeed a big bomb with a global box office of nearly 400 million U.S. dollars.

In the past two years, Teacher Ji was a more popular villain star than Hong Qinbao, Jet Li, etc. in Europe, the United States and even the island nation of South Korea.

The boss of the Shanhui Group he played in Super Body earned more than 5 million Hong Kong dollars. His salary was only tens of thousands of dollars, which is not much. However, during the filming, the Sony Walkman placed on his waist exploded, and his waist was slightly bruised. Trauma...recuperation is nothing.

The medical expenses are a small sum, and Sony covers them all.

The key is how much market damage will the explosion of the Walkman cause to the Sony Walkman brand?

A sealed red envelope is worth HKD 5 million!

Later, he was lucky enough to ride on the Zhao family's chariot of making money by speculating on Japanese yen and foreign exchange. He invested several million, but it was settled long ago and turned into thirty or forty million.

In the current Mainland film and television industry, Ji Chunhua is not only famous and well-known, but also has first-class wealth and net worth, second only to the group that shot Journey to the West.

Even Lu Shuming, whose sales exploded with the hit "Romance of the Three Kingdoms"... Mr. Lu didn't have a Japanese yen chariot to ride on.

It's the end of September now, and Red Sorghum has already been filmed. In the post-production period, waiting for the film to be released, Jiang Wen is eyeing Teacher Ji's wallet.

He also wants to try being a director and making blockbusters! The kind of shooting that can win big prizes, make a lot of money, and make money while standing.

When they arrived at a nice restaurant, Jiang Wen drank three glasses of wine in honor of Teacher Ji, and then smiled and said, "Brother Ji, the film and television industry has been booming recently. It's so popular that we didn't even dare to imagine it a few years ago."

"A few years ago, Xiaoqing was paid one yuan a day for filming the Burning of the Old Summer Palace. You and Jet Li were also paid one yuan a day for filming the Shaolin Temple??"

"But now, if we work together to make a good movie and earn dividends, or if we can sell goods, the money we make will be more than we can spend in a few lifetimes."

Ji Chunhua was also drinking, with a smile on his face, "You are right, Brother Wen. Although you are not well-known in the world and you haven't started making much money yet, you are definitely one of the people I admire."

"Dare you argue with Director Zhang from beginning to end on the set? Go crazy!"

Forget it in the original track, Zhang Yimou's "Red Sorghum" was his first time working on a crew as a director. Before that, he was a photographer, actor, and best actor.

In this dimension, Amou is the kind of person (Shark Beach) whose global box office has exceeded US$100 million, and (Juno) who not only has a box office of more than US$200 million, but also won the Best Director trophy at the Cannes International Film Festival!

Director Zhang like this will switch to shooting mainland movies again? In the entire crew, except for Jiang Wen, no one dared to disobey Director Zhang's arrangements.

Even though he was famous and made a lot of money, Ji Chunhua still admired Jiang Wen. The other party was not unreasonable and messing around, but he really gave Director Zhang a lot of positive reinforcement in the quarrel and in expressing his opinions.

On the contrary, Teacher Ji took a look at himself. In the past few years, although by chance, he was able to get involved in the villains of Zhao Films' blockbusters, and he became popular and made a lot of money... But in whichever crew he was on, he acted in whatever way the director arranged, almost An honest person who has never expressed his personal opinions.

He looks very fierce and scary, but with a good conscience, Teacher Ji has always thought that he is an honest and good man, and he is not very courageous.

Jiang Wen hurriedly smiled modestly, drank a few more glasses of wine, and asked curiously, "If I can recruit a good crew and start a project, Brother Ji, would you consider investing in it?"

The original trajectory was not until 1991, when he, an actor, best actor, etc., directed a film for the first time (Sunshine Days), and his first film was nominated for Best Director at the Venice Film Festival, which was tied with the Cannes Film Festival.

Golden Horse Award for Best Director trophy.

Now? Jiang Wen is still the Best Actor. Last year he won the Hundred Flowers Award for Best Actor for his movie (Furong Town).

Having worked with so many film crews, I am no stranger to the director's position and the shooting process. Look at Zhang Yimou, a photographer who directly jumped into directing and became so successful. He is super successful and has achieved both world-wide fame and fortune.

He couldn't bear his ambition anymore.

Ji Chunhua was stunned, and then nodded after dozens of seconds, "As long as you have a good book, can shoot well, and have a profitable project, of course I will consider investing in it."

After working together for several months, he knew that the Xiao Jiang in front of him was talented.

Jiang Wen was overjoyed and fucked him three times again. He smiled and said, "Brother Ji, you have made a movie with Zhao Sheng from Hong Kong Island. If we form a team, maybe it will be released in theaters and we will have to rely on your efforts."

Ji Chunhua laughed, "This shouldn't be a big problem. Zhao Sheng is a great philanthropist. He wants good things for tens of thousands of families. He won't make things difficult for anyone. He speaks based on his strength."

"As long as you can come up with a good project and follow the procedures according to the rules, there is hope for it to be released in Europe, America and island countries."

Of course Zhao Sheng is a great philanthropist. He earned 5 million Hong Kong dollars in red envelopes from Super Body. Isn't it because Zhao Donghuai took care of him? ?
