Chapter 1092 Preparation for the Second Tour

When it comes to Kylin TV's biggest discovery in the past two years, most people will definitely vote for Tony Leung.

It's not just that Tony Leung Chiu-wai became famous in one fell swoop after starring in "Brother Xin Zha".

It would be strange to star in Yin Jun's TV series and not become famous.

The reason why he is said to be the biggest discovery is that in addition to "Brother Xin Zha" and "Beidou Two Heroes" written by Yin Jun, Tony Leung starred in three more TV series last year that were not written by Yin Jun, and the ratings were still at the top. More than 50%, becoming the undisputed popular fried chicken.

Tony Leung's popularity is not only due to his performance in TV series, but also his off-screen life.

In the past, the paparazzi in Hong Kong were very happy to have Leslie Cheung's scandals to chase every day. Now that Tony Leung Chiu-wai has emerged who is not inferior to him, the paparazzi are simply too busy all day long.

One of them is a superstar in the music industry, and he can easily sell five or six million copies of a record.

The other is a TV star who is popular all over Asia. When he goes out to perform or attend events in Hong Kong, he can only get out of the way and be blocked.

It is no exaggeration to say that Tony Leung's speed in changing girlfriends is not inferior to Leslie Cheung's.

It's just that their preferences are different.

Leslie Cheung's favorite is female models, while Tony Leung prefers actresses.

Moreover, both of them are not only targeting local girls in Xiangjiang, but also girls from Japan, South Korea, and Singapore will all fall into their clutches.

No, during the second "Kylin TV Thanksgiving Concert Tour", two people who participated were photographed bringing local female stars, female singers, and female models into the room, and the next morning they were Come out with photos.

The strange thing is that no matter whether it is Japan, South Korea, Singapore, Malaysia or other countries, their newspapers are not ashamed, but are very happy, thinking that this is an attractive performance on behalf of the beauties of their countries.

Oh, by the way, this time the concert tour also went to Baodao. If the Baodao government dared to stop this kind of tour across Asia, it would cause another turmoil, so they could only stare at it. Dare to take action.

However, the application for the release of "Shaolin Temple" was cleanly rejected.

Even though "Shaolin Temple" was almost entirely invested by Qilin Culture and could be considered a co-production between the Mainland and Hong Kong, the Baodao government firmly refused on the grounds that relations between the two places had not yet been normalized.

Even if Cai Songlin has all kinds of skills, he can't use them here.

Yin Jun couldn't help but sigh.

Baodao’s cultural industry has always been so exclusive.

Not to mention now, but also in the future, they would rather be occupied by Hollywood movies, and would rather let Sunset Xiangjiang movies come in, than let in those excellent movies from mainland China, and the annual quota is only ten.

The most exaggerated thing is that the number of theaters given to these ten movies is very small. Unless it is a movie with incredible reputation, it is rare that the box office exceeds 10 million new moss coins - that is, 2 million yuan!

Comparing this point, what the mainland will do in 20 years will be much more ambitious.

Whether your film is from Baodao or Xiangjiang, as long as it complies with the rules, it can be released.

The Asian concert tour is a very important showcase for Qilin Culture, a good opportunity to connect emotionally, and also a good opportunity to make money.

During the first concert tour last year, Qilin Culture made a huge profit of HK$70 million. Excluding the bonus bonus for the cast and crew, it pocketed a net profit of HK$40 million.

This amount of money is not that much for the entire Kirin Group, but if you consider that in more than a month, you can easily settle the account just by walking around, singing, and participating in various activities. 40 million Hong Kong dollars is indeed a lot.

This year is different.

With last year's warm-up and strong response, as early as August this year, Chen Shufen, the performance director of Qilin Culture, received calls from dozens of TV stations, performers, and brands across Asia to discuss with her the second season of this year. Regarding the concert tour.

Chen Shufen was extremely tired from talking about it. By the end of November, she had lost 10 pounds.

But her results are also very amazing. She negotiated a total of 280 million performance contracts for Kirin Culture. After excluding all taxes and fees, the net profit was 210 million Hong Kong dollars.

Even if the dividends to the cast and crew are doubled compared to last year, it will still bring in a net revenue of 150 million, which is more than three times that of last year!

However, there are many conditions for negotiating such a large contract. The tasks of this group of cast and crew have more than doubled compared to last year.

The most important ones are that Zhou Runfa must participate in 12 performances and meeting events in 5 countries, plus the recording of 5 programs; Asia's number one action star Fei Xiang is even more tired, he needs to attend 22 performances and meeting events Yes, the number of program recordings is 9.

"Prison" starring Zhou Runfa was the first film from Hong Kong to win the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival, and Zhou Runfa's performance in it was amazing, so his reputation in Asia has further expanded.

As for Fei Xiang...

"Speed" swept the box office across Asia, which is one of his successes.

But more importantly, people now understand what "appearance is justice". Fei Xiang's height of almost 1.9 meters, the handsome face of a typical mixed-race person, and the affectionate eyes... have impressed countless people. A woman will fall in love with it just by looking at it.

It is precisely with the support of this group of crazy female fans that advertisers and performers are negotiating with Fei Xiang the most, but Fei Xiang is busy working on his second music album, and he is also preparing to go to the United States. If you want to participate in several Broadway opera auditions, how can you have time to travel around for more than a month?

But a young man like Fei Xiang is no match for Chen Shufen.

Chen Shufen tortured him for a month, until Fei Xiang almost collapsed, and finally had to agree to Chen Shufen's request.

As the deputy general manager and performance director of Kirin Culture, Chen Shufen did not need to be so polite, but who said Fei Xiang is the number one brand of Kirin Film Company?

And Chen Shufen also understands that these young people are not pursuing money and honor, but a kind of self-expression.

If he were as mature as Zhou Runfa, everyone would be happy and there would be no need to worry at all.

Although Zhou Runfa will go to the United States with Yin Jun after the Chinese New Year to film "The Shawshank Redemption", he still found time to participate in the tour organized by Kylin TV.

The only thing that dissatisfied Chen Shufen was the lack of a significant first sister in the hands of Qilin Culture.

There is a brother.

Zhou Runfa is the first brother, and the following ones, Fei Xiang, Wu Weiguo, and Liang Chaowei, are all chosen by everyone, and they can be said to be shining stars.

But the first sister is different.

Although Qilin Culture has stars such as Fei Xue and Zhong Chuhong, in terms of box office appeal and the popularity of their works, they are not as good as TVB's Wang Minquan, and they are not as good as ATV's Zhao Yazhi.

When Chen Shufen mentioned this, Yin Jun was really a little funny.

It's okay to say that Peixue can't be a sister, because her personality is best suited for quiet acting and is not suitable for competition.

But my Chu Chu family is different.

In another seven years or so, there will be a saying in Hong Kong: "No one is more popular than Zhong Chuhong." During the three to five years between the late 1980s and the early 1990s, there was no actress in Hong Kong who could cover up the brilliance of Zhong Chuhong.

Now you actually think she is not famous enough?

Well……

If you think about it carefully, that seems to be the case.

Since her debut, Zhong Chuhong has only appeared in a few movies, two literary films by Xu Anhua, and then "Speed ​​of Life and Death" filmed by Yin Jun.

Even though "Speed" made Zhong Chuhong famous and popular, the most popular actor in it was Fei Xiang. Although the heroine had a lot of roles, she always felt that she was a little bit inferior.

This is normal. In ordinary movies, the most memorable person is definitely the male protagonist.

Unless it is a film that specifically emphasizes the heroine, or is simply a film with a heroine as the main character.

But Yin Jun didn't panic at all, because he had laid the groundwork a few years ago - Alice in "Resident Evil" was prepared for Zhong Chuhong.

Now if Zhong Chuhong goes abroad, especially Europe and the United States, people will recognize her and shout her name "Alice".

It's just that the current computer special effects are not enough to produce the shocking effect of "Resident Evil", so Yin Juncai did not let Zhong Chuhong film "Resident Evil".

When "Resident Evil" comes out, Zhong Chuhong will quickly become famous all over the world like the original protagonist.

Of course, with Chen Shufen's reminder, Yin Jun would not let Zhong Chuhong wait another seven or eight years.

The movie that made Zhong Chuhong the eternal red bean sister in people's hearts in her previous life will be started filming next year at the latest.

its name is

"once a Thief"!

This can basically be regarded as Zhong Chuhong's last film before retiring from acting. It is the pinnacle of Zhong Chuhong's acting skills, basically not inferior to veteran actor Zeng Chiu, actor Zhou Runfa and powerful Zhang Guorong.

Although if the filming started in 1983, Zhong Chuhong's appearance and acting skills would still look a little immature, but if Yin Jun personally serves as the director, there should be no big problem.

At that time, it will not only be Zhong Chuhong's problem, Leslie Cheung's acting skills are also completely inadequate.

At this time in his previous life, Leslie Cheung was still in a low ebb and had no chance to act at all.

Then after he became famous, he started to be busy again, filming and singing together, and participating in various programs. Where did he have the time to hone himself?

He had to wait until he was rubbed by Xu Ke for a while in "A Chinese Ghost Story", coupled with the precipitation of his previous withdrawal from the music scene, before he could have the chic and gentle Azhan in "Across the World".

Even though his destiny has changed a lot in this life, everyone knows that he has no interest in acting. It is really difficult for him and the director to let such a person star in a movie that relies on acting skills. Got it!
