Chapter 124 Hero Released (Part 2)

When it comes to Hong Kong movies, we have to mention "A Better Tomorrow", which set off the "hero movie craze". It played an important role in the development of Hong Kong movies.

The film fully brings together the conflicts between the brotherhood of Jianghu (Song Zihao and Xiao Ma) and the brotherhood of biological brothers (Song Zihao and Song Zijie), reflecting their different setbacks, failures, repentance and revenge. These interpersonal conflicts make the film more interesting.

Sensational techniques are more entertaining.

"You look nervous?" Zhang Yi glanced at Wu Yusen, who was sitting on his left, smiled and said, "This film will definitely be a success. Believe me, it will definitely become popular throughout Southeast Asia!"

"Thank you!" Wu Yusen smiled at Zhang Yi and said. However, he still looked a little nervous.

This movie is his turnaround. If even the movie written by Zhang Yi fails to succeed, then his career as a director will probably be over.

Although "A Better Tomorrow" was written by Zhang Yi, it was still not favored by the media. Some media even said that this movie would be Zhang Yi's "Waterloo." Of course, the media's words were not as direct as before.

After all, Zhang Yi's "Waterloo" has been fired by them many times. And slapped in the face again and again, those media are much more cautious about such words.

This film is directed by a dissatisfied director, a has-been star, an idol singer who has just become popular, and an actor who has just bid farewell to the "box office poison". Of course, what makes the media criticize Zhang Yi the most is simply handing over this movie to

Wu Yusen. Therefore, Wu Yusen is undoubtedly the one with the greatest pressure.

The movie has begun, and as the plot unfolds, the audience is all caught up in it and unable to extricate themselves.

There is certainly no shortage of wonderful dialogue in the movie.

"I haven't been a big brother for many years."

"I swear I will never let anyone put a gun to my head again."

"**If you get stuck with this thing, you'll be in trouble for the rest of your life."

"I have been waiting for three years, just for an opportunity. I want to take a breath. Many people want to prove that I am great. I just want to tell everyone that I must get back what I lost."

"Ayi, why do I think I've heard this line somewhere before?" Zhou Huimin, who was on Zhang Yi's right, frowned and asked immediately.

"Haha." Zhang Yi smiled and said, "Fa Ge said almost the same thing in "Nightclub"."

"Aren't you afraid that the media will catch your line and say that you have exhausted your talents?" Fatty Wang, who was sitting behind Zhang Yi, immediately said with an excuse.

"If the movie fails, maybe it will happen again. Unfortunately, they don't have a chance. After the movie is successful, they use this line to make a fuss, which is obviously not worth the loss." Zhang Yi smiled and said.

"This movie is really good. I didn't expect Ayi to write comedy movies, kung fu movies, or gangster shootout movies. I didn't expect him to be great at writing gangster shootout movies!" Wang Jing said with a smile.

"Let's watch your movie!" Zhang Yi rolled his eyes and said.

"Bang!"

When Xiao Ma, played by Zhou Runfa, turned around and fell down after being hit by a gunshot, the whole theater suddenly became silent, and countless people opened their mouths and were stunned.

In "A Better Tomorrow", Zhou Runfa does not actually have the most roles, but he is undoubtedly the most outstanding one. People have already fallen in love with this handsome and uninhibited little brother who wears a windbreaker and sunglasses, holds a toothpick, and lights a cigarette with banknotes.

.

I don't know how many people couldn't accept his death.

"With this death, the character Xiao Ma suddenly became a classic, and the whole movie instantly rose to a higher level. A classic, it is another classic movie. And it is also a blockbuster movie." Xu Ke said to Shi Nansheng next to him.

, then looked at Zhang Yi next to Wu Yusen.

"Shaw Brothers is so cheap again!" Zou Wenhuai said with some sigh.

Although this movie was written by Zhang Yi, directed by Wu Yusen, and personally invested by Zhang Yi, it was produced by Shaw Brothers. After all, Zhang Yi did not open a film company or even a film studio. Moreover, this film was also produced in

Screened by Shaw Brothers Cinemas.

"Shaw Brothers is declining and is about to cease production. Shaw Tycoon focuses on the television industry, and as he gets older, he will most likely give up on movies. Zhang Yi cannot support Shaw Brothers!" He Guanchang said, suddenly thinking of something, and then said,

"You said, why are all Zhang Yi's movies released in Shaw Brothers theaters? Is he trying to get into Shaw Brothers theaters?"

"It's very possible!" Zou Wenhuai frowned and said immediately, "Zhang Yi has countless industries, but he only does not have a film company that he is good at. This is probably because he does not have a theater chain. If he has one,

For theater chains, it is estimated that it will be a matter of time to open a film company."

"At this time, his climate has become so bad that he can no longer suppress him. If he were to suppress him forcefully, he would counterattack and the loss would outweigh the gain." He Guanchang shook his head and said, seeming to regret his mistake.

"Cooperate as much as possible! He seems to have a natural acumen in grasping the market." Zou Wenhuai said with a sigh. It was inevitable that he felt a little bitter. After leaving Shaw Brothers and starting Golden Harvest, now he sees that Shaw Brothers is about to withdraw from the film industry and end its three-legged relationship.

In this situation, I did not expect that Zhang Yi would rise like a comet.

Now that Zhang Yi has not opened a movie company, he is already unstoppable. If he opened a movie company, no one in Xiangjiang would still be his rival.

He is just a monster.

If Zhang Yi was just a screenwriter and a director, no matter how good his movies were, no matter how good his connections were, Zou Wenhuai would not be so scrupulous about Zhang Yi. But in addition to these, Zhang Yi also has a lot of money. Think about it.

Whatever movie you want to make, you can do it yourself, you don’t have to rely on any movie company at all.

Of course, Zhang Yi's biggest weakness now is that he does not have a theater chain. But once Shaw Brothers' theater chain falls into his hands, at that time, in Zou Wenhuai's view, Zhang Yi is more threatening than Xinyi City

Many. After all, he naturally saw the potential crisis within Xinyi City.

"I heard that after Zhang Yi finished filming "Resident Evil", he will co-produce a blockbuster with New Art City. The investment will be much larger than that of "Resident Evil". Then Lei Juekun invested 40 million. With Zhang Yi's character, his investment is also

There must be a lot." Ho Kwan-chang continued, "After the two blockbusters, the tastes of Hong Kong audiences will probably be spoiled, and an era of blockbusters may emerge in Hong Kong. Should we make early plans?"

"The Hong Kong market is too small and the investment is too large. If we want to recover costs, we have to rely on foreign markets. Let's wait and see the market reaction first," Zou Wenhuai thought for a while and then said.

He Guanchang hesitated to speak, and finally sighed and said nothing more. At this time, the movie ended, and there was overwhelming applause in the theater.

"Congratulations, you succeeded." Zhang Yi stretched out his hand and said to Wu Yusen with a smile.

"Thank you! Thank you!" Wu Yusen was so excited that he couldn't help but shed tears. He held Zhang Yi's hand and became a little lost.

"Go up and say a few words. Everyone is waiting. I won't go up." Zhang Yi smiled and said immediately.

Seeing Wu Yusen take the stage, Zhang Yi pulled Zhou Huimin and walked out. Unexpectedly, just a few steps away, a voice stopped him.

"Mr. Zhang!"

Zhang Yi looked back, a little surprised, and said: "It turns out to be Mr. Xu. Director Wu mentioned your matter to me. How about we find a place to discuss it?"
