Rise of the Richest Man Reborn

This time, Selinda brought her youngest daughter, Joniana, to fly to Xiangjiang suddenly. On the one hand, she wanted to experience the movie "Shaolin Temple" on the spot. After all, it took so long to get the North American screening , made her feel a little self-blaming, it was rare that Lu Yixuan could ask her for help with one thing, and she was still unable to figure it out, so it was very embarrassing to be a 'mother-in-law'.

On the other hand, it is precisely because Lu Yixuan co-authored the book with his youngest daughter that Joanianna has achieved extraordinary achievements.

Now in China, Joanna has become the representative of the most cutting-edge young writers. While her novels are selling well, her youngest daughter's influence among the younger generation is also increasing day by day.

Joniana heard that "Shaolin Temple" could not be released in North America for a long time, and almost used her influence to mobilize fans to create momentum for "Shaolin Temple". She wanted to use this method to help Brother Lu's film Landed in North America.

Accompanied by the mother and daughter Hua, they went to the Bellagio Cinema to experience the movie "Shaolin Temple" on the spot.

After watching the movie and coming out of the Bellagio Cinema, that guy, the mother and daughter Hua looked at Lu Yixuan again, the eagerness in his eyes really raised another level of enthusiasm immediately, and he really wanted to use his eyes to make Lu Yixuan It was like being swallowed alive.

"Brother Lu, you are such a genius!

It's really unexpected that the kung fu movie you made is so memorable. This "Shaolin Temple" is really much better than those Hollywood blockbusters. It's so exciting and beautiful! "

Joniana was full of praise, looking at Lu Yixuan, she was full of adoring little stars.

A look of nympho and drunkenness.

Serinda also praised: "Lu, "Shaolin Temple" has raised Chinese kung fu movies to a new level.

After returning to North America, it seems that no matter what, I have to convince those diehards that you must keep the agency rights of "Shaolin Temple" in North America..."

Reception of Selinda mother and daughter stayed in Xiangjiang for two days.

I had an in-depth exchange with Joniana about the outline structure of the follow-up plot of "The Legend of Potter Harlear", and the development trend of the story. So far, this series of legendary masterpieces after the magic reform has begun to use Gradually began to reveal some sporadic elements of oriental magic in the way of grass snake and gray line.

Joniana would like to stay in Hong Kong for a long time to carry out later creation.

What to say, I want to experience more, the concept of oriental humanistic legend, to better integrate oriental elements into the story.

What Xiao Nizi's real thoughts are, she can figure it out with her toes, she clearly knows that Lu Yixuan is currently stationed in Xiangjiang, and wants to stay in Xiangjiang to meet her lover.

This temptation is too great!

Naturally, Lu Yixuan is also looking forward to the leisurely little days with Xiao Nizi every day.

But he knew very well that he really didn't dare to open this hole. If he really wanted to live a life of a young couple with Joniana in advance, his will would probably be exhausted soon, and there was no shortage of money left and right. With less wealth and beautiful women to accompany her, what kind of struggle will she have to do in the future?

So after much deliberation, I still gritted my teeth and stuck to the bottom line, and didn't really break through the final relationship with this grinding little goblin.

After staying for two days, the mother and daughter of Selinda took the opportunity to return to North America.

When she went back, Selinda took a copy of the movie "Shaolin Temple", Joniana's little head was once again filled with all kinds of bizarre and interesting stories by her brother Lu, full of motivation, Motivated to write at least ten more sequels to The Harry Potter Saga.

Another half a month passed in a blink of an eye, and we saw the end of the year.

The box office revenue of "Shaolin Temple" has reached a high of 9450 million Hong Kong dollars after nearly one and a half months of release.

Excluding the various investments of more than 1000 million during the filming period of the crew, more than 1000 million in advertising costs, and more than 2000 million in box office sharing with various theaters.

In the end, the net profit at the box office was more than 5000 million.

Based on this calculation, the profit level of "Shaolin Temple" is far, far worse than that of "20 Years of Xiangjiang".

Of course, accounting cannot be so simple and straightforward.

You know, after "Shaolin Temple" was released, Huanyu Video has now become the third force in the Xiangjiang film and television industry from an unknown small company started a year ago, and it is implicitly catching up with the old Shaw Films , Golden Harvest Film Industry and up...

Only this item, only this intangible wealth value, is the result that many companies in the same industry dream of.

Chapter 292 The Standard of a Good Movie

Chapter 292 The Standard of a Good Movie

On this day, "Shaolin Temple" basically ended its screening in major theaters in Xiangjiang, completely freeing up the schedules of each theater.

The film "Shaolin Temple" was a big success, and Huanyu Video held a huge celebration banquet. Zhang Xinyan, the crew members in Xiangjiang, all wore red and colorful clothes, and made their debut on the stage. Reward these meritorious ministers.

On the day of the celebration banquet, someone directly withdrew 100 million Hong Kong dollars in cash from the bank, and rewarded all the ministers for their merits.

This kind of inhumane energy is really gone, and immediately there was a "wrong trend" in the Xiangjiang entertainment circle. After being known by other film and television company bosses, they drew small circles behind their backs one by one. Zha Xiaoren misses Lu Yixuan terribly.

No way, rich and willful.

The celebration banquet held by Huanyu Audio-Visual Company has made many celebrities in the Hong Kong industry envious. They all feel that other people's bosses are so kind, but at the same time, they also openly or secretly throw an olive branch to Huanyu Audio-Visual Company. .

They all expressed that they must not forget to take care of any new films that will be filmed in the future.

In a word, after a series of turmoil, the golden signboard of Huanyu Video and Video Company, with the endorsement of the phenomenon-level and super-popular movie "Shaolin Temple", has become the most dynamic and cutting-edge film and television company in Hong Kong, with a resounding reputation. Compared with the old brands of Shaw Brothers and Jiahe, it is not much better.

Not to mention, Lu Yixuan, a young and promising boss, whether it is film and television directing, music production, or promotion of film and television works, the company's contracted artists are really all top-notch in all aspects. cattle.

Who wouldn't like to work hard in the world with such a great man!

Take a look at the current Dawan Film Industry. It used to be some crooked things. Now look at them, everyone has changed from the original gangsters to rising stars in the film and television industry.

Take a look at the two contracted singers that Huanyu Video and Video strongly recommend. What level is Zhang Mingmin now? More than a year ago, who knew who Zhang Mingmin was?

Then look at Li Zhongsheng, the luckiest guy, just because he would flatter him at the award show, he sang two songs with Lu Yixuan, and he became famous all at once.

What kind of bird was this guy originally?

A graduate of a technical secondary school in Wandao, who didn't even have a decent job, but now, with the most rapid speed, he directly debuted with a tailor-made album for his young boss. A golden voice in the Chinese music scene...

Regardless of these.

Look at the movie "Shaolin Temple" again, this guy, those actors in it, who knew who they were before?

But now?

Li Jueyuan, who played the leading role of Shaolin monk Jueyuan, is now not only a household name in Hong Kong, but also in the Chinese circle in Southeast Asia, who doesn't know Li Jueyuan's name!

Some people even directly mentioned that Li Jueyuan is the reincarnation of the international kung fu superstar Bruce Lee, and his future achievements will definitely surpass Bruce Lee...

In this movie, there are still many classic images, all of which are impressive.

For example, the big villain, the eyebrowless vulture, is portrayed so vividly that he looks like a heinous villain no matter how you look at it.

Some fans who were fascinated by the film even took to the streets to protest with slogans, demanding that the mainland police arrest the eyebrowless vulture, so that such a villain should not be allowed to harm the society.

The celebration banquet held by Universal Video Company was extremely successful, even attracting nearly a hundred media reporters to follow and report on the grand occasion of the celebration banquet.

The only pity is that most of the crew members are in the mainland, so they couldn't participate in this grand celebration banquet.

At the climax of the celebration banquet, Lu Yixuan was invited to the stage to give a final concluding speech. He expressed his emotions and publicly stated that he would lead Universal Audio and Video in the future to produce more and better music and make more and better good movies to give back to the society , to repay everyone who loves and supports Universal Video.

The leader gave a speech and won thunderous applause.

Media reporters took the opportunity to rush into the scene, turning the celebration banquet into a press conference.

"Director Lu, "Shaolin Temple" is such a big success. The two "20 Years of Xiangjiang" directed by you before also had a good box office. Director Lu, do you have the secret to make a good movie? Can you share your successful experience with those in the industry.”

"Lu Dao, remember that when you clarified for yourself the press conference of Er Lu Guiyi incident, you mentioned the criteria for judging a movie.

You said at the beginning that the standard of a good movie does not only refer to the box office revenue.

Since "Shaolin Temple" was released, word-of-mouth box office has been overwhelming. "Shaolin Temple" must now be a well-deserved good movie!

Director Lu, can you sum up what the box office and word-of-mouth standards must meet in order to be considered a good movie..."

"Director Lu, please tell me the specific criteria for judging this good movie..."

Lu Yixuan said with a smile: "There is actually only one standard for a good movie, as long as it can be met, it can definitely be called a good movie! I bet, after I said this standard, every friend here will send a I agree in my heart, is there anyone who refuses to accept it and is willing to make this bet with me?"

The appetites of the people at the scene were immediately whetted, and many were eager to try, but none of them had the guts to bet with Lu Yixuan.

There is no way, this is Lu Yixuan's great reputation in Xiangjiang entertainment circle.

There are too many halos on his head. He once expressed doubts about him, thinking that he spent more than 1000 million advertising "Shaolin Temple" as a prodigal act, and now all of them are slapped in the face.

Seeing that there was no stalker coming out to fight, Lu Yixuan felt quite unfulfilled, and laughed loudly:

"Remember from now on, the ultimate criterion for judging a movie is good or bad, that is, there are no urine spots throughout the whole process. The more urine spots, the worse the film will make the audience desperately hold back the urge to watch the movie from beginning to end. It's a really good movie!"

Fuck~~~

No one in the group could have imagined that Boss Lu would suddenly utter such vulgar words.

I just thought about it calmly, and all of them secretly praised this guy for summarizing it brilliantly, and it's a good movie if there is no peeing in the whole process, so it makes sense...

After the celebration banquet, another good news came.

He Hongliang, who works with amazing efficiency, has brought the film "Shaolin Temple" to Malaysia, Xinjiapo, Ma'ao, Wandao, Dongsang, Bangli... all the countries and regions around the Xiangjiang River after half a month of preparation. They all landed on the screen strongly in the form of Lunar New Year's offerings.

In these places, although the film is not as well-known as in Xiangjiang, there was a strong advertising campaign that lasted for three months, but the word-of-mouth of "Shaolin Temple" itself has already spread in Southeast Asia.

That's why the film was first released and received numerous positive reviews, and the box office is also rising steadily...

Chapter 293 Prepare to go home for the new year

Chapter 293 Prepare to go home for the new year

He Hongliang's way of life is really extraordinary. Since "Shaolin Temple" was released in various parts of Southeast Asia, the box office has become more and more popular. There are real-time box office statistics every day, and it is only the first week of the overseas box office. Cumulatively, as much as 5000 million Hong Kong dollars (converted) has been realized.

Realizing the goal of guaranteeing a minimum of [-] million is becoming more and more within reach.

At the same time, in the mainland market, under the strong intervention of the cultural department, "Shaolin Temple" was the first to be screened in movie theaters in major provincial capitals and major cities.

The nationwide unified ticket price was set at five cents per ticket under Lu Yixuan's suggestion.

This ticket price is directly cut in half compared to the dime a ticket in the previous life, but for Lu Yixuan, it doesn't matter how much the final box office revenue is, and at the beginning of 1980, the consumption level of the people in the mainland was really Five cents is already counted as a luxury consumption.

Buying tickets to watch a movie, at a time when food and clothing are still a problem, spiritual and material enjoyment is really a bit highbrow, too bland.

In a few days it will be New Years Eve!

Last year, due to some special circumstances, Lu Yixuan stayed in Xiangjiang to spend a lively and lonely New Year.

Now that the release of "Shaolin Temple" has come to an end, Lu Yixuan felt a little homesick, so he settled down to work, and was busy shopping for a lot of New Year's goods, so he planned to fly back to the mainland for the New Year.

However, there are no direct flights to the mainland these days. If you want to take a flight, you have to go back to Guangdong Province by car first, and then transfer to Tang'an from Guangdong Province.

Anyway, this flight back is enough to toss people.

Traditionally, Chinese people have to celebrate the reunion year, so no matter how hard it is, no matter how far away from home it is, no matter how inconvenient it is, it has not dispelled the urgent heart of homesickness.

Everything was ready, and the company's affairs were arranged for Xiang Shiqiang to take care of him.

On this day, Xiang Shiqiang drove to pick him up early, and was going to send Lu Yixuan to Luohu Port, and transfer back to Baiyun Airport in Guangdong Province.

Lu Yixuan prepared a big suitcase,

There are still many gifts that I planned to take home.

Later, considering that it was really inconvenient for the journey and the traffic was underdeveloped, he had to carry it on his own shoulders on the way back and forth, so he was determined to reduce some of it.

In this way, I finally saved a large suitcase with a height of half a person.

Looking at such a large luggage is worrying.

At my age, I have traveled thousands of miles, and I still need to bring these things...

Hey, hello, I guess it will be used as a smuggling inspection after passing the customs...

Xiang Shiqiang eagerly said: "Lu Sheng, is it not convenient to travel alone, or I will find two more brothers, Miss Yanling and I, let's go back to the mainland together. It's really meaningless to stay in Xiangjiang for the New Year , I really want to go back to the mainland with you to see..."

Lu Yixuan's eyes lit up: "Old Xiang, are you really interested in going back to the Mainland?"

Xiang Shiqiang nodded hurriedly: "We really want to visit your hometown, Lu Sheng, and want to know what kind of outstanding people are there to give birth to someone like you, Lu Sheng!"

Lu Yixuan had other thoughts.

It's not easy to go back to the mainland, but the mainland is currently the hottest year to start attracting investment. If we can take this opportunity to attract a group of Xiangjiang bosses to go to the mainland, even if they don't go too far to the inland area, To recruit more people to come to Nanzhen is a good circle, let them know the current trend of opening in the mainland, and if it can really lead to a few investments, this is definitely a good thing...

"Lu Sheng?"

"Uh, I lost my mind just now, Lao Xiang, let me ask you a question, besides getting involved in the film and television industry, if there are other better business investment opportunities, would you be willing to get involved?"

"Huh? Lu Sheng, do you have any good projects to take care of your brother? There is no reason to be unwilling, there is a business investment opportunity, of course you have to go all out to get it~~~"

Xiang Shiqiang's eyes were piercing, and he didn't doubt Lu Yixuan's investment vision at all.

Lu Yixuan pointed to the north direction: "Lao Xiang, what are your thoughts on the mainland's establishment of a special zone in the north, and the investment promotion policy called by the mainland?"

Xiang Shiqiang scratched his head: "Lu Sheng, you know that I'm a rough person, I don't know much about these things, but Lu Sheng, you mean that investing and cooperating with the mainland can make a lot of money?"

"It's not just about earning money!"

Lu Yixuan said with pride, "To tell you the truth, if I really want to make a big difference in business, I will always focus on the mainland in the future. Not to mention other places, just the newly established special zone on the north side of the Xiangjiang River. After 20 years , it will become a city of miracles..."
