really!

Just as Chen Xunqi expected—after hearing from Xu Cun that he wanted to take a stake in "Interstellar Blunt", Shao Yifu immediately agreed, and did not object to Xu Cun's condition that Chen Xunqi be the director and producer concurrently.

Hanging up on Shao Yifu's call, Xu Cun sat on the sofa without saying a word for a long time——Xu Cun knew in his heart that even though he invested 20 to 30 million Hong Kong dollars to help Chen Xunqi realize his dream of filming "Interstellar Blur", But with Chen Xunqi's character of wanting to try everything, eight or nine times out of ten, he still can't resist the temptation of being his own boss.

So what is the purpose of investing two or thirty million Hong Kong dollars?

"Maybe it's just for peace of mind." Xu Cun thought after a long time - at the beginning of the filming of "ET", the US G actors and US G co-stars often made trouble for Xu Cun. Whenever conflicts occurred, Chen Xunqi took the lead in defending Xu Cun. When the beautiful G youth molested He Chaoqiong with words, it was Chen Xunqi who took the lead in beating the beautiful G youth to half-mutilation, so Chen Xunqi almost entered the beauty G prison. These... are all favors.

Entering February, it is the end of the lunar calendar.

After several months of operation, Xu Cun's 500 million Hong Kong dollars (after receiving the deposit for the sale of the two buildings of the Federal and International Buildings, Xu Cun invested another 300 million Hong Kong dollars.) has become more than 800 million Hong Kong dollars in stocks.

During the Chinese New Year, when the stock market was closed, Xu Cun gave Yuan Tianfan a red envelope of 500,000 Hong Kong dollars, and other members of the team also wrapped red envelopes ranging from 50,000 to 100,000 yuan, and then sent them to Hawaii for vacation— — This is to prevent them from leaking information.

Although the filming of "Dao Ma Dan" is coming to an end, it hasn't finished yet. In addition, Nortel is now in the winter vacation period. Therefore, all the teachers and students of Nortel did not return to the mainland.

Xu Cun asked Cui Baozhu to buy a large number of New Year's goods and send them to Xujiaban's residence-this year, all the teachers and students of Nortel celebrated the New Year there.

The filming of "Zombie Family" is only halfway through. According to Lin Zhengying's character of striving for perfection, it is impossible for "Zombie Family" to be released before May next year.

Fortunately!

The filming of Zhong Zhiwen and Yuan Kui's "The Male and Female Thief" is over-otherwise, this year's DreamWorks is too disappointing.

This year, DreamWorks only screened four films in total: Zeng Zhiwei's "The Steal", Xu Cun's "ET", Yu Yunkang's "Mountain Dog", and Yu Rentai's "The Salvator". Even if Zhong Zhiwen and Yuan Kui's "The Male and Female Thief" is added, it is still two short of the at least seven films that Xu Cun promised Lei Juekun last year.

In this regard, Xu Cun was helpless except to say sorry to Lei Juekun. Originally, what Xu Cun thought was that both "Dao Ma Dan" and "Zombie Family" could be filmed years ago, but Xu Cun never thought of it. What I thought of was that if I was slow, Lin Zhengying was even slower! Fortunately, it was only a verbal promise at the beginning, otherwise Lei Juekun might sue Xu Cun for breach of contract.

If it's just a small number, it's fine, and the quality of KemengWorks' movies this year is not enough.

The box office of "Stolen Thieves" in Hong Kong is only over two million Hong Kong dollars, and its reputation is mediocre. Fortunately, "Thief" did well at the box office in Taiwan and Nanyang. Let DreamWorks earn several million Hong Kong dollars.

The box office of "Mountain Dog" and "Savior" in Hong Kong is also a little over two million. The reputation of the two films among film critics is not bad, but the audience does not approve of them very much, which makes them not even qualified to be sold in Nanyang. They were released, but their box office was mediocre. At the end of the day, the combination of "Mountain Dog" and "Savior" made DreamWorks more than one million Hong Kong dollars.

For a small film company, a profit of more than one million Hong Kong dollars is not bad! But for a big film company like DreamWorks, "Mountain Dog" and "Savior" can only be regarded as hit movies.

Objectively speaking, if it weren't for the support of "ET", this year's DreamWorks would have already appeared to be in decline.

Therefore, "The Male and Female Thief" is very critical.

Based on this, Dreamworks has attached great importance to "The Heroine" since Xu Cun - DreamWorks decided to advertise "The Heroine" and arranged for "The Heroine" to be screened in the entire Golden Princess theater.

But Dreamworks’ plan is good, but the plan is far behind the rapid changes—Dreamworks’ performance this year is so mediocre that Dreamworks’ partner Golden Princess Cinemas didn’t make much money from Dreamworks this year. This led to an accident when arranging the theaters for the release of "The Male and Female Thief".

After the establishment of New Art City, two films were made - "Funny Times" and "Happy Fairy's Nest".

After its release, "Funny Times" was a surprise hit with a box office of more than five million Hong Kong dollars, becoming the fifth highest-grossing film in Hong Kong this year after "ET", "Junior and Brother", "A Painful War", and "The Killer".

Lei Juekun was naturally very happy about this!

Therefore, Lei Juekun arranged for "Happy Fairy's Nest" to be released on the Lunar New Year file - he wanted "Happy Fairy's Nest" to achieve more brilliant results.

In this way, "The Heroic Thief" naturally collided with "Happy Fairy's Nest".

This year, among DreamWorks' films, "ET" made the Golden Princess Cinemas a fortune, and the other three movies were almost equal to the Golden Princess Cinemas for nothing.

Although the box office of "Funny Times" is far less terrible than that of "ET", Lei Juekun, who owns half of the shares in New Art City, made no less money from "Funny Times" than from "ET". If you count the overseas box office share, Lei Juekun made at least twice as much money on "Funny Times" as he did on "ET".

Lei Juekun, who has tasted the sweetness, actually has a heart for "Happy Fairy's Nest".

However, Lei Juekun also knows that the sequel "The Male and Female Thieves" of the international hit "Royal Senior Sister" is unusual.

After thinking about it, Lei Juekun came up with a very stupid move-he divided the Golden Princess Cinema Line into two, twelve were given to "The Male and Female Thieves", and twelve were given to "Happy God". nest".

After learning of Lei Juekun's decision, Xu Cun didn't say anything on the surface, but secretly he called Shao Yifu and Zou Wenhuai respectively—borrowing theaters from them.

If someone else borrowed theaters from Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest during the Lunar New Year, Shao Yifu and Zou Wenhuai would definitely ignore that person, but Xu Cun is different—as long as they still want the overseas distribution rights of DreamWorks movies, they will do so. Xu Cun cannot be offended.

In addition, both Shao Yifu and Zou Wenhuai are willing to see a gap between Xu Cun and Lei Juekun.

In addition, the abolition of the subsidy system by the Golden Princess Cinemas and the change of the sharing system had a huge impact on Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest, which aroused Shao Yifu and Zou Wenhuai's hatred for Lei Juekun.

Therefore, even though it was the Lunar New Year holiday, Shao Yifu and Zou Wenhuai still lent eight theaters to Xu Cun respectively.

After borrowing the theater, Xu Cun asked Shi Nansheng to advertise—the wealthy Xu Cun even spent 2.7 million Hong Kong dollars to promote "The Male and Female Thief".

What's even more damning is that Xu Cun actually let "The Male and Female Thief" and "Happy Fairy's Nest" be released on the same day - anyone with a discerning eye can see that Xu Cun wants to use "The Male and Female Thief" to attack "Happy Fairy's Nest".

Knowing that Xu Cun let "The Male and Female Thief" and "Happy Fairy's Nest" be released on the same day, Lei Juekun guessed Xu Cun's intention.

For this, Lei Juekun scolded Xu Cun for being petty and domineering on the one hand, and on the other hand made a big publicity for "Happy Fairy's Nest" - Lei Juekun also wanted to see if "Happy Fairy's Nest" could stand up to "The Male and Female Thief" Snipe, and then decide whether to continue to cooperate with Xu Cun or part ways?
