Chapter 606 Investing in Chen Peisi
After singing, it does not mean that the rehearsal is over.
Han Jin again reflected on Huang Yihe that the sound effect just now was somewhat insufficient.
Huang Yihe couldn't help but feel a little confused after hearing Han Jin's reaction. To him, Han Jin had actually sang very well. Just by looking at the reactions of the audience, he knew that it was definitely very outstanding.
But since he said that, Huang Yihe had to take it seriously and quickly asked the staff to debug again.
After that, Han Jin sang it twice before nodding with satisfaction.
Huang Yihe and others debugged for the second time, and when they listened to Han Jin's singing, they felt that it seemed to be a little better than before, and they were surprised by his professionalism.
Generally speaking, mainland singers do not have such awareness. As long as the sound is not too bad, they will generally not make any requests.
"Mr. Han, it's really amazing. You can tell such a small difference." Huang Yihe said with a smile, as if he couldn't tell the difference at all.
"It's just that you have specialized in your skills, and practice makes perfect." Han Jin waved his hand, "I hope it won't waste too much time for everyone."
"No, no." Huang Yihe smiled and said, "Mr. Han's meticulous attitude towards art is what we admire."
Han Jin also smiled. Just as he was about to say something to him, a staff member came over and wanted to report to Huang Yihe.
【◎,w≈ww.
"Director Huang, you are busy, I won't disturb you anymore." Han Jin waved his hand.
"Well, sorry, Mr. Han, it's too busy. Then please do whatever you want." Huang Yihe said apologetically.
Han Jin nodded and did not go back to the hotel immediately, but chose to sit down and enjoy the show.
"Mr. Han, we are your fans. Can you sign us a name?" As soon as he sat down, several little girls came over and said. Seeing the costumes, they should be dancers in the Spring Festival Gala program team.
"Okay." Han Jin nodded, and then signed his name on their book.
"Thank you!" the girls smiled sweetly, and then left like a group of birds.
"Wow, you look so handsome!" "You are so well written!" "You are so good at the attitude!"
Han Jin overheard their voices and couldn't help but smile.
After the group of dancers left, many people came to Han Jin to ask for autographs.
In the 1980s, Hong Kong and Taiwan artists appeared in the mainland, and the so-called things are vaguely expensive! In addition, Hong Kong and Taiwan are originally more developed than the mainland, so in the eyes of mainlanders, Hong Kong and Taiwan artists are more delicate. Not to mention that Han Jin is so handsome and his songs are so good.
Originally, after he was recognized, many people wanted to sign him. However, because everyone has fewer contacts with Hong Kong and Taiwan artists, they don’t know what their temperament is. I am willing to pay attention to them.
Now that they saw those dance girls asking for autographs but were not rejected by Han Jin, someone immediately moved, and in a moment, there were 30 or 40 people surrounding Han Jin.
The chirping, the swallows dance and the orioles are singing, very lively!
"Go back to me, how is it like a quarrel?!" At this moment, a cadre in the Taiwan area saw that they were really unreasonable. He was ashamed of being home as if he had never seen any world. He couldn't help but come over and scold him.
Only then did these fans stick out their tongues and Yiyi was reluctant to leave.
Han Jin then breathed a sigh of relief. Unexpectedly, he still couldn't be purified when he hid in the mainland.
"Are you going to Antarctica or North Pole next time?" Han Jin couldn't help but think.
After he finished his rehearsal, the next rehearsal was Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao's sketch "Selling Mutton Skewers", which satirizes the story of illegal vendors using inferior products as good ones and cutting corners.
Han Jin had watched this sketch before, but it was watched on TV. Now, the first time I watched it from the scene, I was amused by the two of them.
Especially when Chen Peisi learned about the Uyghur Alibaba, it was a masterpiece, and it was hard to see how he had such inspiration. However, Han Jin did not expect that the mutton skewers in 1985 were so expensive. One skewers cost 20 cents. Based on the monthly salary of ordinary employees for 40 yuan, eating six skewers is a day's salary, which is really not something that ordinary people can afford.
No wonder it was popular at that time, and there was also the saying that it was better to sell eggs than to build an atomic bomb.
After the rehearsal of the two, they won applause from the audience. As expected, they are the most popular sketch king in China now.
Han Jin also applauded enthusiastically and greeted him with a smile, "The performances of both of you are really wonderful!"
Chen Peisi smiled. He really didn't expect that Han Jin, a Hong Konger, also knew how to appreciate sketches from the mainland, which really surprised him.
"Thank you, the song you sang just now is also very nice." Chen Peisi smiled.
"Thank you." Han Jin nodded, "You two can speak with one step, okay?"
Chen Peisi smiled and glanced at Zhu Shimao.
Zhu Shimao never thought about what to talk to Han Jin, but since he had already invited him, he nodded.
Han Jin then took Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao to sit down.
"I admire the performances of you two very much, they are very distinctive and funny." Han Jin smiled, "Have you ever thought about making a comedy movie?"
Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao looked at each other, "The company needs to approve the movies. Even if we want to shoot them, we can't do it."
Han Jin smiled and knew that there was no precedent for private investment in movies in the mainland, and the country had not opened up this field. It was not until the 1990s that state-owned enterprises were reorganized and their own profits and losses could private film companies appear and there would be room for development.
"Don't worry, as long as you two are willing to take pictures," Han Jin said with a smile.
It is not easy for mainland private capital to enter the film and television industry, but foreign capital like Han Jin is much simpler. In order to promote the development of the domestic film industry, the mainland has the conditions to introduce funds, actors, technicians, etc. from Hong Kong and Taiwan.
Like the Blue Bird Film Company founded by Ms. Xia Qi invested in filming many movies such as "Fighting to the Sea of Anger", "Heroes Becoming a Boy since Ancient Times", and "Like the Years Flowing" in the Mainland.
Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao nodded with a smile. Who doesn’t like making movies if you are an actor? Now that there is a wealthy man from Hong Kong who wants to invest in making movies, that’s the best.
"But, you made a movie, but there were no theaters." Chen Peisi said worriedly. "If you can't make money, can you lose money?"
"It's okay, I have my own theater chain in Hong Kong." Han Jin waved his hand and said.
One sentence scared Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao to death.
Neither of them could imagine what it means to own a theater chain in private. In their minds, cinemas are all state-owned. And it’s too expensive, and if you own a theater chain in private, how much money will he have to have?!
"Do you really have your own theater?" Chen Peisi asked in surprise.
Han Jin smiled, "Have you heard of Shaw Brothers in Hong Kong?"
Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao nodded. They were at least people within the system and could always get in touch with some information that ordinary people could not access. Naturally, they knew that there was a Shaw Brothers in Hong Kong.
"Then it closed last year, do you know?" Han Jin asked with a smile again.
Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao showed surprise expressions, as if they heard that the earth was about to be destroyed. In their impression, Shaw Brothers is the largest film company in Hong Kong, so how could it be closed if it was closed?
Han Jin smiled and knew that their information was out of date. "Shaw Brothers closed down last summer vacation, so I bought its theater chain."
"Really?!" Zhu Shimao asked in surprise, feeling that Han Jin's words were too unreliable.
He couldn't even think about how much a theater chain would cost.
Han Jin actually said that he bought the theater. Is this possible?
"How much did it cost?" Chen Peisi asked curiously.
Han Jin smiled, "I didn't spend a penny."
"..." Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao were both stunned. They felt that Han Jin was looking for happiness with their brothers.
I just said that I bought Shaw Brothers theater chain, but now I have said that I haven’t spent a dime. Is that true?
"Shaw Brothers asked me to spend for a year for free, and I only paid for this summer vacation." Han Jin explained with a smile again.
Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao looked at each other, and both thought Han Jin's statement was a bit ridiculous.
You are not someone else's son, so why do they let you take advantage of it in vain? This is too unreasonable to say.
"If you don't believe it, I will take you to Hong Kong and let you see it with your own eyes." Han Jin smiled.
Chen Peisi also smiled, "No, no. We don't believe it, we just can't come back for the time being. But Mr. Han, can Hong Kong people understand the movies of our brothers?"
"It's a bit difficult." Han Jin smiled.
Chen Peisi's movies are typical mainland comedy movies, and comedy movies have always had their limitations. Just like Xu Guanwen, his comedy movies are very popular in Hong Kong, but in Taiwan, Nanyang is not very popular.
Due to the different cultural environment, many jokes in the movie are difficult to resonate in other places. Even Zhou Xingchi was very popular in the 1990s, but his movies were still not sold in South Korea. It was not until "Shaolin Football" that he began to become popular in South Korea.
"Then are you still investing?" Chen Peisi asked in surprise.
Even though he knows that movies cannot be popular in Hong Kong, he is still willing to invest. Isn’t this a careless person?!
Han Jin smiled, "Because I like you, I am willing to invest, and I am happy even if I lose money."
He still remembers watching Chen Peisi's sketches when he was a child. What a happy thing it was to watch movies. But one year, they suddenly did not appear on the stage again.
Later, Han Jin realized that they were banned by CCTV. Chen Peisi failed to invest in a movie and planted pomegranates in the mountains. Zhu Shimao went abroad to study and was depressed for four or five years before making a comeback. The experiences of these two were all difficult!
Han Jin didn't want them to be so bumpy in this life, so he wanted to help them.
Moreover, Han Jin still remembers how happy he was when he was a child, how happy he was when he was a child, how he watched "The Queen Mother's Auspiciousness".
In his eyes, Chen Peisi is the Chinese Charlie Chaplin, a comedy master, a person who truly understands comedy, and is much stronger than Feng Xiaogang and others. He is not vulgar, not vulgar, not vulgar, not vulgar, and is completely confident. It’s just a pity that he was born at the wrong time and was suppressed by others.
Otherwise, if he kept filming the movies and performed the sketches, perhaps the mainland movies would not be like the ones in his previous life. They were simply a collection of bad movies, you were even worse, they were rotten until the end of the world, and they were rotten until the end of the world. And the sketches would not always make fun of the disabled and mentally retarded people, nor would they sing praises all over the world, empty and boring, full of lies and clichés, and extremely disgusting.
Therefore, in order to protect them or to leave a fire for mainland movies, Han Jin is willing to invest in the filming of the two of them. Even if they lose millions or tens of millions for this, it will be fine.
With his current net worth, he will be playing even if he loses 200 million a month.
Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao looked at each other, but they both felt that they had either met a lunatic or a liar.
Otherwise, how could you say such stupid words!
When I met on the first day, I said I liked them and was willing to invest in making movies for them. I even said that I was willing to lose money. This is either a fool or a liar. Who are you trying to fool!
"Oh, Lao Maoer, the director is calling us." Chen Peisi suddenly said.
"Where?" Zhu Shimao hadn't reacted yet.
Chen Peisi quickly kicked him.
Zhu Shimao immediately realized, "Yes, yes, that's not right. Then Mr. Han, we have a step ahead."
As they said that, they stood up and left in a hurry.
Han Jin smiled, knowing that they didn't believe in their strength.
"Forget it, it's useless to say more, let's see the truth after looking back." Han Jin smiled.
Chapter completed!
