Rebirth of the Great Entertainment Empire

…

"The legendary director Xu Cun will spend at least 100 million Hong Kong dollars to go to Hollywood to make the movie "ET"."

When "Movie Biweekly" and "Oriental Daily" jointly published the news, it was as if an atomic bomb had been dropped on Xiangjiang—the entire Xiangjiang was blown up!

All of a sudden, people in Xiangjiang speculated whether the news was true or not, and people who knew Xu Cun even asked Xu Cun whether the news was true or not.

Among them, Xu Cun's women are most concerned about whether the news is true or not. Even Michiko Saixie, who Xu Cun just got started with, found Xu Cun under the leadership of her manager He Qiao, and then asked Xu Cun in unproficient Mandarin: " Brother Cun...do you really want...to spend more than three billion yen...to make a movie?"

Xu Cun asked He Qiao to go out, then put Michiko Xixie on his lap, and said, "What? I'm afraid I'll lose all our family's money and have no money to support you?"

"I... can support you." Said Michiko Nishiwaki.

No matter what Michiko Saixie said was true or not, Xu Cun was very happy to hear it! Therefore, Xu Cun softly said to Michiko Xixie: "I heard that you still have an older brother?"

"Well, my brother... he was very kind to me," said Michiko Nishiwaki.

"Well, then, does your brother want to come to Xiangjiang to develop?" Xu Cun asked Michiko Xixie.

"He never left...Chiba County...should...wouldn't come here." Michiko Nishika replied.

"Then how about I invest some money in him to start a business?" Xu Cun asked Michiko Nishika.

Michiko Nishika did not expect Xu Cun to offer to invest money in his brother's business! While this surprised Michiko Nishika, it also made her feel a little sweet in her heart.

Seeing that Michiko Saikye didn't speak, Xu Cun made the decision for Michiko Saikye: "Give him 20 million yen first, and if it's not enough, you can ask me to ask for it. Go to Zhong Chuhong and ask her to take you to the Finance Department Withdraw money."

After hearing what Xu Cun said, Michiko Nishika pecked Xu Cun's face lightly, then leaned into Xu Cun's ear and said, "Brother Cun, from now on... I will keep myself safe...as a woman .”

Even if Xixie Michiko could think of keeping herself safe, she would definitely not be able to say such words. He Qiao taught her to say these words.

He Qiao told Michiko Xixie that Xu Cun must like a woman who keeps her own life, and as long as she can do it, Xu Cun will treat her kindly.

Sure enough, Xu Cun was in a good mood when he heard Michiko Saikie say the words "be safe and secure", and he went to Michiko Saikie on the spot regardless of the sound insulation effect of the office.

...

Although the big words have been uttered, in fact, Xu Cun does not have 100 million Hong Kong dollars in cash.

"Happy Ghost" earned Xu Cun eighteen million Hong Kong dollars.

"Mr. Zombie" earned Xu Cun 26 million Hong Kong dollars.

"Hit the Wrong Car" earned Xu Cun eleven million Hong Kong dollars.

"Royal Senior Sister" earned Xu Cun 48 million Hong Kong dollars.

Total: The four films earned Xu Cun a total of 103 million Hong Kong dollars.

But Xu Cun earned a lot, and spent a lot. Only Xiangjiang DreamWorks Records and Taiwan DreamWorks Records cost Xu Cun more than 15 million Hong Kong dollars.

In addition, raising ten women, raising a large number of filmmakers, investing in film production and other expenses, Xu Cun only has a total of more than 80 million Hong Kong dollars left in his hands.

In addition, it is impossible for Xu Cun to withdraw all the money from DreamWorks—if he is not afraid of 10,000 yuan, he is afraid of what happens. What if "ET" really makes Xu Cun lose everything? So, no matter what, Xu Cun had to leave eighteen million to Dreamworks for himself.

In this way, the cash that Xu Cun can mobilize is only 70 million Hong Kong dollars.

Is 70 million Hong Kong dollars enough to shoot "ET"?

In the last life, Spielberg was already a well-known director in Hollywood when he filmed "ET", but even so, he spent 12 million US dollars (equivalent to 90 million Hong Kong dollars) to shoot "ET". ET".

Xu Cun is not well-known in Hollywood, and he is also a Chinese director. If he wants to make "ET", he will probably spend more money than Spielberg-even though Xu Cun is very familiar with the movie "ET".

Therefore, 70 million Hong Kong dollars was not enough for Xu Cun to shoot "ET".

Fortunately, there is still "Fuxing Gaozhao", and Xu Cun estimates that "Fuxing Gaozhao" should be able to make up for the money he lacks.

Because of the high expectations for "Fu Xing Gao Zhao", Xu Cun actively participated in the promotion of "Fu Xing Gao Zhao".

To be honest, "Fuxing Gaozhao" does not need to be too much publicity, as long as the list of the main creators and actors of "Fuxing Gaozhao" is reported, the audience will naturally flock to the cinema.

However, having said that, Boss Zou, who was waiting to get "Fuxing Gaozhao" as his grade, still asked He Yuchang to discuss with Xu Cun, saying that the two companies would each spend 500,000 Hong Kong dollars for advertising.

Naturally, Xu Cun couldn't spoil Boss Zou's interest just because of 500,000 Hong Kong dollars, so he agreed to promote "Fu Xing Gao Zhao" in this way.

In addition, Zou Wenhuai also imitated Xu Cun and held a premiere of "Fu Xing Gao Zhao".

In this regard, Xu Cun is also actively cooperating, and he even recommended Anita Mui and Chen Baiqiang to He Yuchang under the guise of selfishness.

He Yuchang also imitated Xu Cun's style of play, selling invitation tickets for the premiere, and he was several times more expensive than Xu Cunhei, selling 888 tickets.

In this regard, Xu Cun can't stop it, anyway, he earns half of what he earns.

Of course, He Yuchang couldn't smash Golden Harvest's brand—in addition to inviting Anita Mui and Chen Baiqiang, He Yuchang also invited Xu Guanjie, Luo Wen, and Zhen Ni to sing. In addition, He Yuchang also asked Hong Jinbao (Yuan Long), Cheng Long (Yuan Lou), Yuan Kui, Yuan Biao, Yuan Hua, Yuan Wu, and Yuan Tai to reorganize the Seven Little Fortunes to perform "Havoc in Heaven". Mr. Yu Zhanyuan, master of Hong Jinbao and others, and Mr. Yu Zhanyuan's son-in-law, Han Yingjie, invited them here.

After all, Mr. Yu is an old man in his seventies, and it is impossible to play Sun Dasheng on stage again. He can only pull the strings for his apprentices and ask his son-in-law Han Yingjie to play Sun Dasheng for him.

Not to mention other things, the Seven Little Fortunes from the original cast alone are worth the 888 tickets. If he hadn't gotten 200 invitation tickets to the premiere of "Fuxing Gaozhao" in advance, Xu Cun would have spent 888 out of his own pocket to buy the invitation tickets to the premiere of "Fuxing Gaozhao".

There are not a few people who have the same idea as Xu Cun. Excluding the 400 premiere invitation tickets from Golden Harvest and DreamWorks, the remaining 1,600 tickets were all sold out in just half a day.

The 1,600 invitation tickets for the premiere were sold for a total of more than 1.4 million Hong Kong dollars. Excluding expenses, Golden Harvest and DreamWorks each earned more than 500,000 Hong Kong dollars.

Although this amount of money is not too much for Golden Harvest and DreamWorks, it is a good omen.

On August 26, the premiere of "Lucky Stars" was held at the Golden Harvest Theater as scheduled.

Xu Cun originally wanted to use the old method—to give each of his women ten invitation tickets to the premiere of "Fuxing Gaozhao", and let them bring relatives and friends to watch the movie.

However, this tried-and-true method didn’t work this time—Hu Huizhong’s home is in Taiwan, and Nishika Michiko’s home is in Japan, and they have no relatives or friends in Xiangjiang. It was these two women who caught Xu Cun off guard the most. They actually teamed up, and just as Xu Cun sat down, they sat next to Xu Cun, one on the left and one on the right. Lin Zhengying and Chen Xunqi, who were originally planning to sit next to Xu Cun, had to change places when they saw this.

Except for Lin Qingxia who is far away in Taiwan, everyone knows Xu Cun's nonsense. So, as long as Xu Cun doesn't let them get caught, they will just turn a blind eye and pretend they don't know.

But what Hu Huizhong and Michiko Nishika did was obviously provoking the other girls! Therefore, as soon as they sat down, Xu Cun felt countless swords, lights and swords.

This situation is so similar to what happened at the premiere of "The Royal Senior Sister"!

Immediately, Xu Cun remembered how he had worked so hard to coax several girls after the premiere of "The Royal Senior Sister". Then, Xu Cun couldn't help thinking: "Everyone in the world has seen the beauty of the philandering man, but who can know the suffering behind the philandering man?"
