I am the fifth king

Originally, according to the plan, the promotion of the movie "Fang Shiyu" depended on Jet Li.

After all, he is the main box office bearer.

However, Jet Li has recently encountered troubles and plans have changed.

Therefore, He Jin had to be asked to undertake the promotional task of the film.

Speaking of Jet Li's troubles, this matter is really painful.

At the Top Ten Golden Melody Awards Ceremony in January, Anita Mui, Chen Baixiang and others were still envious of Jet Li's girlfriend Li Zhi who went to the mall and transformed from a star to a strong business woman.

result.

As a result, within two months, Li Zhi rushed.

She spent tens of millions investing in real estate in Shandong.

As a result, the house price plummeted, and the partner ran away with money, which made her go directly from a strong business woman to a bankrupt with negative assets.

According to Jet Li, she now owes nearly 7000 million yuan in total, and she can't pay it back at all.

Then, Jet Li took on the responsibility of being a man at this time.

He intends to repay the debt for Li Zhi.

However, he himself does not have much assets.

Although he made many box office hits for Golden Harvest before, he only spent two to three million yuan per movie.

Therefore, although he can get some money out now, the distance from 7000 million is not too far away.

So, he began to find people in the circle to borrow money.

Others He Jin didn't know, anyway, Jet Li borrowed 1000 million from him.

Later, Jet Li and Xiang Huaqiang signed a film contract for six films, in exchange for 7200 million.

It was also because he had signed a contract with Xiang Huaqiang. In a few days, he would start to appear in "Once Upon a Time: Iron Chicken Fighting Centipede" produced by China Star, so he could not attend the next "Fang Shiyu" promotion.

Incidentally, here.

In the middle of last month, Yongsheng's Xiang family brothers separated.

Xiang Huasheng continued to run Yongsheng Company, while Xiang Huaqiang founded China Star Film Company.

Therefore, Jet Li's contract is not Yongsheng, but China Star.

"To the boss! Welcome, inside please!"

Said that Cao Cao Cao Cao arrived, He Jin and others just arrived at the entrance of the theater to welcome the guests, when they saw Boss Xiang and his wife Xiang Tai walking over calmly in the reporter's photo.

"Haha! The King of Variety Songs and the Emperor of Kung Fu join forces, this movie will definitely be a hit!"

Xiang Huaqiang was smiling all over his face.

Can you not laugh!

Counting the people who can resist the box office in Xiangjiang in the past few years, they are Jackie Chan, Yuen Biao, Lin Zhengying, Stephen Chow, Chow Yun-fat, Jet Li, and the five heavenly kings.

And now, apart from Jackie Chan, Yuen Biao, and Lam Ching Ying.

Others, including the five heavenly kings, actually signed contracts with their company.

He can imagine that in the next two years, they will definitely have the final say on the Xiangjiang film industry.

It's no wonder he doesn't laugh at this kind of joy!

"I'll go in first, the two of you will chat later!"

Xiang Huaqiang said with a smile.

"can!"

He Jin and Jet Li nodded.

"This year and next, the focus of my work should shift to films made by Chinese stars.

Our company's follow-up films may depend on you to take on the big responsibility! "

While welcoming the guests who came, Jet Li said.

Hearing this, He Jin couldn't help but smile wryly.

"Brother, I still have a play appointment with them now! How can I have time!"

"Squeeze some time to come out! Look at me, I will join the crew of "Once Upon a Time: Iron Chicken Fighting Centipede" tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, and if "Fang Shiyu" has a good box office, I will definitely start preparing for the second film immediately."

Jet Li said.

"My specific time may depend on the arrangement. Next month, I will start a concert tour. In May, the new album will be launched, and I will definitely have to promote it again.

In addition, my Japanese and Korean singles have to be produced as soon as possible, and then, the Mandarin album..."

He Jin talked about his plans for this year with a face full of headaches.

"It's a headache!"

Listening to He Jin talking about his plan for this year, Jet Li was helpless.

Originally, according to the plan, this year's Zhengdong Film and Television is to create a movie around Jet Li.

But now that Jet Li has signed a film contract with China Star, this plan will inevitably conflict. .

"Forget it, don't think about it so much, whether our company can continue to make films in the future depends on whether "Fang Shiyu" can be a hit!

If we rush, it's no use thinking too much now! "

He Jin said.

What he said didn't make sense.

If "Fang Shiyu" fails, then Zhengdong's follow-up films will definitely have to turn to small-production films.

Whether Jet Li is busy in the follow-up depends on the box office of "Fang Shiyu".

If the box office is good, then he is busy.

If the box office is poor, it is naturally not busy.

……

Early 1993.

There are five heavenly kings in the music world who are popular all over the country.

He Jin's song "Can't Say Goodbye" became popular in Hong Kong and Macau, making him the most popular man in Hong Kong for the first time in the votes of various magazines in Hong Kong, overpowering Andy Lau and Li Ming for the first time.

Andy Lau's "True Style" album made him completely get rid of the standard of not being able to sing, and became a crossover actor who can sing.

Jacky Cheung has become the hottest singer currently with his album "Kiss Goodbye" released in March.

In the entire Asian Chinese region, he once set off a frenzy of singing "I kiss you goodbye, in that empty street."

Liming and Guo Fucheng are slightly inferior, but with the title of Five Heavenly Kings, fans will follow wherever they go.

In addition to the five heavenly kings, Zhou Huimin has become the hottest female singer in Hong Kong with "The Next Stop" and "My Pride".

In addition, with the help of "The Most Vulnerable Woman", Wang Jingwen released the album "Persisted Without Regrets" in February, making her famous once again.

Then, Ye Qianwen's partner Lin Zixiang, a veteran in the music industry, also stepped in, with an album "Lin Zixiang, Ye Qianwen's Warm Collection", directly declaring that the two became a couple in a high-profile manner.

At the beginning of the year, the Hong Kong music scene has already been surging.

Of course, apart from local singers from Xiangjiang, the four most famous Taiwanese singers are also willing to be alone.

Lin Zhiying's song "Dream of Drama" directly wrote the words he once released in the media, "You are the king this year, and I will be the supreme next year" into the song, as if I was dissatisfied with the five kings.

Wu Qilong's words are much more low-key. In last year's "Bon voyage", this year he turned into a dream-chasing boy and started "Dream Chasing".

Well, the Four Little Heavenly Kings, apart from these two, the other two are in the music world... I won't mention it.

The music world is surging, and the film world is also fiercely fighting.

Jackie Chan's "City Hunter" hit the opening shot, it was released in January, and by the time it was released, it had a box office hit of 3076 million.

Subsequently, Stephen Chow, last year's biggest winner, was not to be outdone, and a "Fight Back To School Part 2577" sold [-] million at the box office.

At the same time, "Huang Feihong Three Lions Fighting for Hegemony" produced by Golden Harvest and starring Jet Li also hit the box office of 2743 million.

In addition, "Happy Events in the Flower Field" played by Xu Guanjie and Leslie Cheung was released in January, and it directly hit the box office of 3548 million.

In the Lunar New Year period from January to March alone, there are four movies with a box office of more than 2000 million.

This shows how hot the film market is this year.
