Movie tycoon

Chapter 689 Chinese Hurricane
No one would have imagined that the big star Chen Xiaotang would directly beat "Tiger" Richard to the ground in a thunderstorm-like way, and then Fox's internal transfer was almost effortless.

Chen Xiaotang's resolute behavior made those ghosts who originally ridiculed him as an actor and despised him as a Chinese start to get scared. This new boss is definitely not easy!
Fox is called a subsidiary of Hong Kong Phantom Shadow. Although the name remains the same, the people in power have undergone earth-shaking changes.

Chen Xiaotang himself has a lot of things to do, so after drastically reforming Fox, he handed over the power to Big Fat Henry and Explosive Jim.

Today's Jim has almost become Chen Xiaotang's right-hand man, and he admires Chen Xiaotang even more.

Of course, Chen Xiaotang had other intentions, which was to slowly insert some of his own people from Hong Kong into Fox, a huge company.Chen Xiaotang's directing is too obvious or too hasty, which will cause Fox to rebound, so it must be done slowly, such as asking directors Du Qifeng and Er Dongsheng to shoot a new script written by themselves, so as to break into Fox.In just two years, Chen Xiaotang believes that Fox will undergo a big change inside and out, at least he can firmly control it in his own hands, and its original pure Hollywood blood will be immersed in the blood of the dragon by himself.

Fox's big change directly shocked the whole world.

The world's major media reported that the boss behind Fox turned out to be Lafite Chen, a world-class star who had just become popular.

In particular, an authoritative newspaper and magazine exaggeratedly described the big news of the day with a portrait of a person with a mouth.

"Oh God, this is definitely more shocking than the Hiroshima atomic bombing, except that what we bombed was Japan, but this time our entertainment circle was bombed by someone else. Yes, this person is Rafi Chen, a Let us have to re-examine the Asian star."

"When we were still immersed in the charm of oriental films brought to us by Lafite Chen, he taught us a vivid lesson. It turns out that our old American film companies can also be played by others! Yes, today's super The star Lafite Chen is the new boss of Fox Corporation after the reorganization as we all know. Although he publicly declared that he would not manage the internal affairs of the company too much, according to reliable sources, he has already cut Fox drastically, which is hard for us to imagine. , a big star who dominates on the screen, but in the private Hollywood film world, he is so capable and powerful."

"God likes to favor someone, regardless of race or color, and now we have reason to say that Rafi Chen, a Chinese from the far east, is being favored by God, whether it is his movies, his songs, or his The increasing status in the world film industry tells us that he may be the "Son of God" of tomorrow. You may think I am talking nonsense, but who told us that the Son of God must be a blond American?!"

There are many other reports like this.

The United States is also a place where gossip emerges endlessly. Americans are even better at mining gossip. We can see this in many American blockbusters. The plane broadcast live the bank robbery....
This time the American paparazzi also showed their power and began to dig out the eight generations of the mysterious Lafite Chen's ancestors.

Some American journalists even flew directly to Hong Kong to find Chen Xiaotang's ancestral home and neighbors, and to do incomparably similar "research" on him.

"He used to be a speedster, but the prodigal son turned around and joined the entertainment circle..."

"He used to be a dead man, but he became a popular niche by virtue of his diligence and perseverance..."

"He used to be a dragon and tiger martial artist, but he defeated the Soviet boxing champion with his real kung fu..."

"His movies are more popular than the next one, and his songs are more beautiful than the last one. He writes scripts and creates songs. He is a genius and an entertainment tycoon. He is sitting on billions of dollars of wealth, but he is obsessed with the film business...he It is the newcomer to Hollywood, obviously Lafite Chen, a mysterious man full of legends!"

The media reports on Chen Xiaotang from all over the world have set off a new round of storm.

In this violent storm, the biggest profit is Chen Xiaotang's new film "New World" filmed in Hong Kong.

When this movie was released in Hong Kong, the screening rate remained high. Many audiences from home and abroad traveled across the ocean to Hong Kong to watch the premiere of Chen Xiaotang’s movie. As a result, the major movie theaters in Hong Kong were overcrowded. , New Art City and other big companies had to allocate some theaters to stage Chen Xiaotang's play.How to say that everyone is now their own people, and if they can help, they must not stand idly by.

Even so, the film schedule of this film still cannot meet the needs of those fans. For this reason, Hong Kong Governor Sir Youde had to sign a special order to contact overseas businessmen in the name of the government, so that the film "New World" will be fully released in the Gulf .

Just when everyone breathed a sigh of relief and thought they had overcome the difficulties, a bigger storm came, and Chen Xiaotang was once again popular in Hollywood.The last time it was an international star, this time it was an international movie tycoon...

The giant wave rises again!

The entire entertainment industry in the world has become uneasy, and even more uneasy are those movie theaters.

At the beginning, many foreign movie theaters were not optimistic about the Hong Kong movie "New World", but it hindered Chen Xiaotang's reputation, so they introduced it and showed it for a try.

But who would have thought that Chen Xiaotang suddenly became the big boss of Fox, and this alone scratched the itch of many movie fans and music fans.Everyone is curious, how mysterious is this Lafite Chen?

Curiosity is the most consuming thing in the world.

Once people become curious, they will do many extraordinary things.

For example, people who have never watched movies have begun to pay attention to Chen Xiaotang's new movie.

American Chinatown.

A Chinese restaurant.

"Hey man, we're closing!"

"Ah, why is it closed so early today?"

"We're going to the movies, today is Lafite Chen's new movie!"

"Rafi Chen? Wow, I remembered, I'm going to buy tickets!"

……

A black community in America.

A group of black guys who were performing on the street and learning to dance hip-hop suddenly took away their tools.

"Come on guys, let's pool our change and go to the movies today!"

"Watching a movie? God, we managed to make such a little money, we might as well go eat hamburgers!"

"You know what, today is the release of our 'Father of Street Dance' Lafite Chen's new movie!"

"Really? God, then we're going to cheer anyway!"

.......
A certain university in the United States.

Just after school, the crowd is surging.

"Hi, Isa, are you free tonight?" Johnson, a young boy, looked at the girl he had a crush on, and boldly sent out an invitation.

Before Isa could speak, a handsome guy in a sports car came over and pushed Johnson away, "Go away, you idiot, Isa is going to a party with me tonight!"

"Yeah, Johnson, I promised Mike to go to the banquet, I'm really... sorry." Isa apologized.

"Oh, no, it's okay." Johnson glanced at Mike, who was handsomer and richer than himself, and shrugged, "I just bought two movie tickets and wanted to invite you to see Lafite Chen's movie..."

"What did you say?" Yisha's eyes lit up suddenly, "Do you have Lafite Chen's movie ticket?"

Johnson was taken aback, "Yeah, what's the matter?"

"Why didn't you say it earlier!" Isa turned around and said to Mike: "I'm sorry Mike, I can't accompany you to the PARTY, I want to go to the movies!" Then she took Johnson's hand, "Let's go!"

Johnson was dragged away as if in a dream.

Behind Mike spread his hands like an idiot: "Oh God, what's going on? What the hell is going on? I hate damn Rafi Chen!"

……

Who would have thought that a purely Hong Kong film that was not accepted by Hollywood, because of the mystery of the starring role of this film, and because he has too many stories to tell, so that the whole Hollywood has become his topic, and his movies are even more so. It has become a favorite of major theaters, and many people want to see how exciting this original Hong Kong star will be in the original Hong Kong film.

Of course, for other big Hollywood film companies, they sneered at this Hong Kong movie that got lucky.In their thinking, although Hong Kong movies are not dross, they are also shoddy things. What the Hollywood mainstream can accept is definitely not something that a star can improve.They believe that with the release of the movie "New World", those crazy movie fans will be disappointed after watching the movie starring their idols. It's cold.

Freeze him!
Block him!
Let him be arrogant!

Let him go wild!

Let him know that Hollywood is not something he, a Chinese, can afford!
It's fine if you wander here and don't visit the pier. You are quite ambitious, take Fox away, if you don't boycott you, who will you boycott? !

What kind of shit son of God, God is not cheap enough to recognize a Chinese as his son.The sovereignty of Hollywood will always only belong to us Americans. Even if the Chinese didn’t know what despicable means they used to acquire the established Fox company, but the heads of major film companies like MGM, Columbia, Warner, and Universal Everyone believes that this Chinese star's journey to stardom is like a rabbit's tail...can't grow!

Of course, there are exceptions to everything. Although the major Hollywood film companies are not optimistic about Chen Xiaotang and his film, but Paramount, which had contact with Chen Xiaotang before and bought the copyright of the remake of "New World" for the first time, did not Contrary to most people.

In particular, Nick, the boss of Paramount, spared no effort to promote and publicize Chen Xiaotang's play. In his opinion, this play is definitely worthy of praise. Without it, Nick has seen Chen Xiaotang's "touching stone into gold" before. ability.

Outside Paramount's largest cinema line.

Nick, the president with smooth hair and a protruding chest, bit a big cigar and directed the people around him, "Go, hang that big poster of Lafite Chen higher, yes, buddy, ten meters higher, I want Let the whole of Los Angeles see his smiling face... Oh God, look at this smiling face, this is a check that can be exchanged for a lot of dollars!"

"What? Damn it, didn't I tell you that we're going to transfer the prime time slots in all of our Paramount theaters to this "New World" tonight! Our goal is to make money, understand? As for the shit Only American sci-fi films are popular, and only American movies are good-looking, so get the hell out of here!"

Seeing that his president was so optimistic about this movie, the manager of the theater, a bald and fat man wiped the sweat from his face, and said worriedly: "Boss, are we being too ostentatious by doing this? I guess many people are waiting to watch it now." Our joke."

"Oh man, look at the way you're sweating... I know you're worried, the guys you're talking about are MGM, and Warner, Universal, and the Columbia guys... just let them laugh, I'm Nick Always have a sense of proportion, hehe!"

"But, boss, do you trust Lafite Chen that much?" the bald fat man said boldly.

"No, I trust myself!" Nick said something very philosophical, "I trust myself, and I trust our dear Washington!" As he spoke, he raised the coin with Washington's face on it.

"Remember, those who can bring you wealth are all your friends... Americans don't believe in themselves, but they always like to believe in miracles, but they don't know that miracles are often by your side!" Nick showed a hint of depth Unfathomable smile.

……

Yes, miracles are around!
No one would have expected that the pure Hong Kong film "New World", which was looked down upon by many Hollywood film companies, would have such a good box office and such a hot release.

Whether black, white, or yellow, they were all shocked by the bizarre story of this drama and the final reversal of the plot.

In particular, being an undercover policeman turned away good and promoted evil in the end, and became the ultimate boss. This is a great stimulus to the United States, which upholds the vanguard of justice.

Therefore, the comments on this play are not to mention how wonderful it is.

"God, I have to say, this "New World" has completely subverted the boundary between justice and evil, and I am a little confused, people, why are you alive?!" —————————————————————————————————————————————————Hollywood .

"Undercover has always been the most mysterious topic in Hollywood movies. We have seen Al Pacino's undercover, Robert De Niro's undercover, and John Quinn's undercover, but we have never seen anything like "New World" Such a heaven-defying undercover agent! Especially when he wiped out all those who hindered him in one fell swoop in the end, he is ruthless and chilling! Rafi Chen, he did it, and this will become a classic!" --- A famous Hollywood film critic.

"We have always questioned the creative ability of oriental films, and we are proud of Hollywood, but today, we have seen the birth of an oriental masterpiece, which is "New World" starring Rafi Chen. This This drama completely destroyed the values ​​we have always been proud of, and let us know that a person can do anything in order to survive. Rafi Chen used his superb acting skills to interpret an oriental version of the godfather! The future , he may be the Al Pacino of Asia!"

If the above comments are focused on Chen Xiaotang's wonderful acting skills and the abrupt content of this drama, those super fans who are Chen Xiaotang are concerned about other things.

"Wow, Lafite and Shuai Chen in this movie are stunned! Especially his every gesture, he is like a walking sculpture!"

"Lafi Chen's handsome appearance is not concealed by his acting skills. On the contrary, his handsomeness has added infinite points to this character. May I ask, has anyone seen such a handsome hero?!"

"As a white man, I'm absolutely fascinated by Rafi Chen's footage on the big screen, and I'd even be gay if I could! Oh god, please forgive my impulse!"

……

All kinds of comments have sprung up like mushrooms after rain. Although there are mixed reviews, most of them are positive. Occasionally some bad reviews are because this drama is too subversive. How can an undercover police officer kill a policeman? Be a bad guy? !

These bad critics believe that this drama has a very bad social impact, it will make many undercover police officers follow suit, and it will teach the next generation badly.

America is a free country, but freedom has its limits.

And those praise comments collectively praised, this drama highlights a theme, that is human nature!The dog will jump over the wall when he is in a hurry, let alone an undercover agent living on the edge of gray and white? !
No matter what, the drama "New World" is on fire!And the more the debate gets hotter.No one would have imagined that a purely imported Hong Kong film would have such a great charm, attracting countless Hollywood heroes to chase after it.

One week after the film "New World" was released, the total box office has already collected 500 million US dollars, which is equivalent to more than 4000 million Hong Kong dollars, and the investment cost of this film is only 1000 million Hong Kong dollars.

With the passage of time, the box office of this drama began to show an intriguing "blowout".Especially in the North American market, it successfully exceeded [-] million after one month of release!
A purely Hong Kong film, in August in Hollywood, the box office exceeded [-] million!What kind of concept is this?Everyone can't help but ask themselves, is it possible that the era of Chinese-language movies has really come? !
In fact, these worries of Yankees are a bit superfluous. The Hong Kong film "New World" was so popular in North America for the first time, and the box office can reach [-] million US dollars, all because of three factors: the right time, the right place, and the harmony of people.

Timing: July and August are the prime time for summer vacation in Hollywood, and it just so happens that Chen Xiaotang, who is called the new president of Fox, is getting a lot of hype. He can be said to be promoting his new movie for free.

Geographical advantage: The movie "New World" first became popular in Asia, and then began to sweep across North America and Europe like a tornado. In the North American market, which dominates the world box office, Chen Xiaotang used the Fox company he just acquired to vigorously promote himself. This play can be said to have taken advantage of the geographical advantage.

Renhe: I would like to thank those black, white, and yellow fans and movie fans who supported Chen Xiaotang.They are the promoters of this storm and the creators of this miracle of Hong Kong movies.Of course, there are also those excellent commentators, and their word-of-mouth publicity also helped Chen Xiaotang a lot.As the saying goes, gold cups and silver cups are not as good as people's reputation, and this law applies everywhere.

It is precisely because of the above three reasons that Chen Xiaotang's "New World" is like a dark horse, which unexpectedly broke out and became a golden horse during the summer vacation in North America.
