Hong Kong Stubborn

"The Next Stop, Queen of the Day" has been screened here, and many viewers in the cinema already think this is a wonderful ending.

But before they could breathe a sigh of relief, when the picture changed, Teresa Teng announced that he would bid farewell to the fans of Xiangjiang and would go to Japan to continue development soon. Three days later, the last press conference before the farewell will be held.

After hearing the news, A Fei stayed at home alone. Le Shao came to look for him, and gave him a word of encouragement.

Brother Cai arrived, threw out a reporter's listing card, and the camera took a photo. It turned out to be Huang Jiadong's interview card.

The two raised their heads to look at him, and Brother Cai said solemnly: "That kid collects money to do errands, so it's easy to deal with."

The audience in the theater laughed again.

The scene goes to the scene of Teresa Teng's press conference.

Teresa Teng and Sister Mary sat on the stage to answer reporters' questions. Teresa Teng always kept a smile, but was obviously absent-minded. She glanced at the reporter below who raised her hand to ask for a question, and suddenly her eyes lit up and pointed to A Fei, who was sitting on the far side, wearing a baseball cap and black-rimmed glasses.

On the screen, A Fei slowly stood up, standing very well, but his body was tight and his eyes were a little flustered. He did not raise any questions for a long time, which caused dissatisfaction from other reporters, and there was a lot of noise.

Sister Mary slapped the table and shouted, "Shut up."

The reporter below was stunned.

A Fei's Adam's apple squirmed back and forth, cleared his throat, and stubbornly asked: "Excuse me, are you still looking for new people recently?"

The other reporters laughed, what kind of **** question was this.

Teresa Teng waited for everyone to laugh before saying solemnly: "I haven't met a very good person for the time being, but the one who appeared at my concert is not bad."

A Fei's hands trembled a little, his eyes only dared to stare in front of him, because of nervousness, he stammered even more. Asked: "Then you sign him, can this work?"

The reporters all looked at him like a lunatic, and said to their hearts: How old are you? A Fei's head is lower.

Teresa Teng was silent for a moment and said softly: "I won't sign a contract that is too short. I only sign a long contract."

This time the reporters felt something was wrong, and all of them looked at A Fei stupidly.

A Fei slowly raised his head and said, "Then, is it a long appointment for a lifetime?"

Teresa Teng first pursed her lips and laughed, then grinned, but slowly turned into crying, and then turned into a tearful smile, and finally she covered her mouth and nodded.

In this close-up shot, Teresa Teng acted wonderfully, and her expression changes naturally and smoothly, which made people experience the emotional release after happiness.

In the end, the camera freezes on A Fei's completely raised face, with a slight smile, and his eyes are crystal clear.

The ending song "Blessing" followed.

There was no applause in the auditorium, and no one left, there was a choking and weeping sound.

The next day, the entertainment front pages of major newspapers all published articles about "The Next Stop, Queen of Heaven."

Yi Shu wrote in the Ming Pao column: My eyes are now red and swollen, and I don't want to write one more word today. I just want to lie in the warm and welcoming sunshine, thinking about the wonderful life of A Fei and Lijun after their marriage.

This is probably Ms. Yi Shu’s commentary with the fewest words, but one sentence is enough. This is endless.

Other newspapers praised the wonderful performances of Teresa Teng and Luo Junyan, and rated "The Next Stop, Queen" as the most lingering love story in the history of Hong Kong movies. The almost fairy-tale plot made people want to stop, and left infinite reveries for the audience.

Soon, the first week of the box office of "The Next Stop, Queen of Heaven" came out with 6.6 million. Insiders feel that this year's movie market is really shocking. There is no need to question it. This film will definitely surpass the box office score of "Senior Brother". As for the final geometry, it is really hard to predict.

The situation in Southeast Asia is even crazier than Xiangjiang, with box offices everywhere, almost full of venues, and rave reviews. Won a box office of 7.5 million Hong Kong dollars in the first week.

Teresa Teng's first Cantonese album "Different Teresa Teng" was launched in Hong Kong, and it sold platinum in less than a week. The included "Blessing" was sung by Luo Junyan. But Luo Junyan can't get the benefit of a penny anymore, he will think about it when he is okay, really feel that it is a cocoon.

The Taiwanese screening rights of "The Next Stop, Diablo" was bought out by Taiwan Central Pictures for 6 million Hong Kong dollars, which means that at least the box office must reach 30 million Taiwan dollars to be considered guaranteed. The screening rights of Japan and South Korea were bought out at a total price of 4 million Hong Kong dollars. It is not easy for these two places to enter and stutter, and both are relatively large. In addition, Japan and South Korea do not have a professional vernacular translation department, and they need to transfer to Taiwan for the later stage. Anyway, the Japanese and Korean markets are a surprise, so it's a bit of a bit.

"The Next Stop, Queen of the Day" was screened for 19 days before it was finally released. The box office of Xiangjiang was 16.55 million, which was the proper annual box office champion. A reporter from Hong Kong has tracked the movie watching situation and interviewed audiences who had just left the theater in the evening for 5 consecutive days. They unexpectedly met many people who had watched it for 5 consecutive days and were interviewed every day.

When Xiangjiang was released, Southeast Asia still hadn't been fully released, but the box office had exceeded 20 million Hong Kong dollars.

What is surprising is that only a week after the release in Taiwan, the box office has been close to TWD 30 million. The theater companies in Hong Kong and Taiwan are blaming God for injustice. The Central Film Industry originally only introduced the film with political missions in order to promote the influence of the light of Taiwan Teresa Teng. As a result, I accidentally took the **** luck, this time it is a big profit. Taiwanese films generally have a long release period, and "The Next Stop, Queen of the Day" is very appetizing for Taiwanese audiences. It doesn't matter if it continues to be shown for a month or two.

The Peninsula Hotel, in the lobby cafe, Shaw and Fang Yihua rarely have morning tea with sister army.

The three of them had eaten quietly. Uncle Six wiped his mouth and asked: "Army, the two small shareholders in the aggregation have been making a lot of trouble recently, and the newspapers have added to the flames and caught the people's appetite. What do you think now?"

Sister Army lowered her head and said for a long time, "Uncle Six, I plan to quit my job at TVB."

Fang Yihua raised his head and said, "Army, are you going to concentrate on making movies?"

Sister Army shook her head, sighed, and said: "Aunt Lan, I feel a little tired and want to rest for a while. The aggregate shares are also going to be transferred out."

The sixth uncle was expressionless, and said: "Army, you are a person who is very affectionate. Ye Gucheng and Luo Junyan are not kind to you, but you don't want to be unrighteous to them. I don't want to intervene in your decision for aggregation entertainment. But leaving TVB is definitely not a sensible choice. I will give you a holiday, and you need to think carefully."

Fang Yihua continued: "Army, how many shares Ye Gucheng and Luo Junyan are asking for this time?"

Sister Army said: "They want to obtain a controlling stake, but it is just unreasonable to make trouble. However, Aggregate signed a contract with Ms. Teresa Teng to reach two cooperations within three years. The premise of the contract taking effect is that Luo Junyan must be obtained in the cooperation. The status and position equivalent to Miss Teresa Teng. That's why the two of them will feel confident."

Liu Shu and Fang Yihua both raised their heads because the value of this contract was too great. Not to mention anything else, just shoot another sequel to "The Next Stop, Queen of Heaven". If Shaw operates independently, it may be tens of millions of profits.

Uncle Six did not speak, Fang Yihua glanced at him and said, "Army, can you show me this contract?"

Sister Army nodded and said: "I also learned afterwards that they had signed this contract, or I didn't care enough about aggregation. Aunt Lan, I will give you the photocopy tomorrow."

Two days later, Taiwan’s China Times made an interview with Teresa Teng. During the visit, Teresa Teng said that she was very happy to cooperate with Luo Junyan and looked forward to the next cooperation between the two sides.

In the eyes of Liu Shu and Fang Yihua, this is tantamount to acknowledging the existence of the ministerial contract.

Therefore, at the end of August, Shaw had advanced the box office share of Xiangjiang and Nanyang in advance. At this time, the box office share of Nanyang had not been recovered.

According to the contract, Xiangjiang's final box office was 16.55 million Hong Kong dollars, and Aggregate Entertainment received 9.93 million Hong Kong dollars at a 60% share. Nanyang's final box office was 30.8 million Hong Kong dollars, and Aggregate Entertainment received 7.7 million Hong Kong dollars at a 25% share. With the addition of 10 million Hong Kong dollars for the screening rights of Taiwan, Japan, and South Korea, Synergy Entertainment has earned a huge profit of up to 27.63 million Hong Kong dollars from one movie.

The three shareholders of Gathering Entertainment moved quickly, and they were all divided up on the day the funds arrived.

Sister Army gets 70% of the investment income of 19.35 million Hong Kong dollars, and Aggregate Entertainment gets 30% of the investment income of 8.28 million Hong Kong dollars. So far, Aggregate Entertainment has deducted staff salaries and other company operating expenses, and the book balance has more than 8.5 million Hong Kong dollars in cash, of which 8 million Hong Kong dollars have been used for this shareholder dividend. Sister Army received a dividend of 7.2 million Hong Kong dollars, and Cheng Ge and Luo Junyan received 400,000 Hong Kong dollars in dividends.

So why does Jackie Chan have such strong dissatisfaction? A comparison will make it clear that the strength is greater, the responsibilities are much greater, and the income is not worth the fraction of others. That's 26.55 million Hong Kong dollars. Brother Cheng and Luo Junyan are holding their 400,000 Hong Kong dollars and staring at this astronomical figure, not to be jealous, that's a fake.

Just as people accumulate blessings in the previous life, do good in this life, and in the next life do not ask for the blessing of the blessings of walking upright. Regardless of how viciously resentful Cheng Ge and Luo Junyan were in their hearts, Sister Army has become a wealthy generation with a net worth of more than 37 million.

Shaw did not reveal how much Sister Army earned, but all kinds of speculations have become a big talk in the Xiangjiang entertainment circle and various gatherings in the business circle. Based on Shaw's consistent impression of being domineering and stingy, no one guessed that the income of sister army was more than 10 million, but they would all lament that it was too easy to make money.

In exchange for clearing the box office share in advance, Shaw invested 3.6 million Hong Kong dollars and 200,000 Hong Kong dollars respectively to acquire all the shares of Army sister and Cheng Ge in Gathering Entertainment, which is equivalent to determining the value of Gathering Entertainment at 4 million.

At the same time, Luo Junyan re-signed a contract with Synergy Entertainment. The liquidated damages used to be only 500,000 Hong Kong dollars, which could not restrain the current Luo Junyan at all. Luo Junyan insisted on signing only the Ministry contract with Aggregate Entertainment. Shaw is actually not optimistic about his development prospects, but he still insists on signing the long-term contract for in-service artistes, which is actually a contract of selling.

Finally, under the intimidation of the army sister set by Brother Cheng, Luo Junyan transferred the aggregate shares he held to Shaw Brothers at a discount of 100,000 Hong Kong dollars, and made huge concessions to the pay, and Shaw agreed. Sign the head contract. The contract stipulates that Luo Junyan must shoot three movies for Synergy Entertainment within two years, with each film being paid only 300,000 Hong Kong dollars, but the penalty is as high as 5 million Hong Kong dollars.

At this point, Juxue Entertainment, an independent production company, has become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Shaw Brothers.

Brother Cheng actively asked to quit and resigned as the general manager. This is in line with Shaw Brothers' wishes. Once Teresa Teng's new film is launched, 5% of shareholder returns will also make people feel distressed. If Teresa Teng's contract can skip aggregate entertainment and directly transfer it to the Shaw Brothers name, that would be the best result. However, the conditions set in the contract are very demanding and can only be auctioned in the name of aggregate entertainment.

In fact, Sister Army strongly opposed the practice of Brother Cheng and Luo Junyan, which is tantamount to betraying Luo Junyan to Shaw, and Luo Junyan will face Shaw's unpredictable means of revenge. However, Luo Junyan's attitude was extremely firm, and even said the big words about breaking his leg and arm. In fact, he was betting that Shaw would not make a public statement, and his family could not afford to lose this person.

Sister Army has a net worth of more than 40 million yuan, and all of it is cash. In Hong Kong in 1980, the HSBC executives would treat her as a distinguished guest and come out to meet in person. Sister Army's ambitions to start a career and grab wealth no longer need to be dormant, but she feels very worried at this time. Luo Junyan's decision without hesitation made her deeply feel a sense of alienation of not owing each other.

Sister Army still submitted her resignation to TVB, but she was not approved for the time being, so she took a long vacation to travel abroad.

On the fourth day of Shaw’s acceptance of Synergy Entertainment, Liang Weixiang, the company’s new general manager, inexplicably received a notice of Luo Junyan’s shooting schedule. The shooting time within the schedule was only 3 days. Liang Weixiang is busy organizing the script creation for the next episode of "The Next Stop, Queen of Heaven" and contacting the American film distribution company. He put this silly notice aside and ignored it.

As a result, a week later, the new print ads of Xiangjiang Crocodile T-shirt were overwhelmingly released. The protagonists in the screen are actually Luo Junyan and Teresa Teng. At the same time, the account of Juxue Entertainment actually received 500,000 yuan for no reason. Liang Weixiang hurriedly learned that the 500,000 Hong Kong dollars was the advertising cooperation commission settled by the Alligator T-shirt.

Later, when Liang Weixiang found the contract at the bottom of the dilapidated filing cabinet, he figured out the whole situation. This is a three-party contract. The signing parties are Aggregate Entertainment, Crocodile Shirt and Teresa Teng, to the effect that Crocodile Shirt hires Aggregate Entertainment contracted artist Luo Junyan and Aggregate Entertainment partner Teresa Teng to shoot print advertisements and authorize the use of their advertising portrait rights. . Teresa Teng’s employment fee of 1 million has been paid directly by the crocodile shirt to the third party, who is Teresa Teng.

There is also a contract below, signed earlier, and also a three-party contract. The signatories are Synergy Entertainment, Xiangjiang Polyking and Teresa Teng. The main idea is to cooperate with the record "Different Teresa Teng", which involves the copyright of the song and the hiring of Luo Junyan to cooperate, etc. In short, for this cooperation between Luo Junyan and Teresa Teng, PolyGram gave 200,000 Hong Kong dollars to the partner. Aggregate entertainment.

Liang Weixiang hurriedly asked the accountant to check the accounts. As a result, there was a 200,000 Hong Kong dollar transferred from PolyGram more than a month ago, and according to the original brokerage contract, Luo Junyan had already withdrawn 40% of the due income. He helped to record a song "Blessing" equal to 80,000 yuan.

Liang Weixiang suddenly realized a problem. Teresa Teng and Convergence Entertainment agreed to cooperate twice, and this was completed. Yes, Luo Junyan asked Teresa Teng for a small favor, but it was counted as two help, Teresa reluctantly let go, and only one favor was left for selling the copyright of the song.
