The world begins with Hong Kong movies

Chapter 203 Unexpected Changes! (Subscribe)

Wu Feng had no idea how confused and depressed Guan Zaisen was after hearing what he had said.

It's not easy to make friends with a bunch of rich and arrogant young men.

Fortunately, judging from the current situation, he is doing quite well.

At least, when Young Master Lin left the nightclub, he looked quite satisfied.

He also said that he would come over to play if he had free time.

For Guan Zaisen, this was enough.

Wu Feng, on his side, received a call from Chen Yao, asking him to go to the headquarters for an emergency meeting.

Society, is there something wrong?
As soon as he hung up the phone, he realized something was wrong.

Ever since Jiang Tiansheng implemented the regional leader system in Hung Hing, he would basically only get together with the regional leaders to exchange ideas at the end of the month when the accounts were due.

At other times, unless it is a major matter involving the community, we basically won’t call anyone.

I heard that this guy has been having a hot affair with the top management of the Football Association recently. How could he have the time to care about the affairs of the association?
Wu Feng guessed that Jiang Tiansheng was showing signs of entering the football circle directly.

He is quite supportive of this.

How to say it, if Jiang Tiansheng has the identity of a sports tycoon, it will be a good thing for the entire Hongxing, and it will naturally be a good thing for Wu Feng as well.

Instead of calling anyone to ask what happened, he drove directly to the headquarters.

"Hey, where has Fengzai been playing lately? Why hasn't he shown up in such a long time?"

I happened to meet this guy, Liang Kun, in the parking lot of the Hung Hing Headquarters.

"There's a lot going on at the TV station!"

Wu Feng said with a smile: "Brother Kun, you have been very proud and successful recently!"

This guy, Liang Kun, is hooking up with Fatty Lai and has been traveling around Southeast Asia recently.

He had heard that this guy was very popular among local tyrants in Southeast Asia.

"Hey, just going out on business!"

Liang Kun looked very proud and chuckled, "Fatty Li's film company has started producing films, so naturally I have to show him the way and pay him a visit. Otherwise, how can I sell the videotapes?"

"Oh, how's the effect?"

Wu Feng asked curiously, "What's the quality of the film shot by Fatty Li?"

"How could I, Liang Kun, not be able to get things done?"

Liang Kun boasted about himself first, then said proudly: "Fatty Li's taste can only be considered average. It's no problem to make a little money, but if you want to make a lot of money, the movies he shoots over there won't do!"

"Brother Kun, you are floating!"

Wu Feng said with a grin, "If we can sell the film to Southeast Asia, we'll earn at least hundreds of thousands. For Fatty Li, that's not a small amount of money!"

"Hey, with his small business, how can he make a lot of money?"

Liang Kun curled his lips and said, "He publishes a pornographic magazine and yet he's still scamming pretty girls all over the street!"

"If he really gets lucky and makes some lucky pretty girl famous, then he won't be able to control her with his methods, so he'll only make a little money!"

“It’s already pretty good!”

Wu Feng laughed and said, "If Fatty Lai opened a chain of video theaters in North Point, even if he produced and sold all the tapes himself, his monthly income would be quite high!"

"The situation over there is very suitable for doing this!"

"You kid, if you have such a good idea, just keep it!"

Liang Kun's eyes lit up, and he said unhappily, "Don't let Fatty Li listen so easily. If this guy doesn't pay a sufficient price, don't let him go!"

"Why, Brother Kun, aren't you helping Fatty Li make a fortune?"

Wu Feng understood and said with a smile: "This way, there are some traces of ruthlessness!"

"You're still too young!"

Liang Kun said with a smile: "What is Fatty Li? He is just an old gangster!"

"I'm willing to help him get rich because I think highly of him and want to help him!"

"From now on, Fatty Li, you have to follow my lead in the underworld. Otherwise, you'll be an ungrateful bastard. How can you survive in the underworld in the future?"

"The suggestion you just made is definitely a stable way to make money for Fatty Li!"

"For an idea like this, we must get enough benefits from Fatty Li, otherwise it would be a waste of money for him. Be more careful, kid!"

"Haha, Brother Kun is still so righteous!"

Wu Feng laughed heartily, feeling quite cheerful, and jokingly said, "You're acting like a gangster!"

"What's the relationship between us brothers?"

Liang Kun chuckled evilly, "Although I've given up the idea of ​​making further progress in the society, my influence and strength can't be weakened, right? I still need some followers and supporters!"

Looking at Liang Kun who was talking so eloquently, Wu Feng felt very impressed.

The difference between the Liang Kun at this time and the one in the movie is getting bigger and bigger.

This guy was doing quite well in the Hong Kong underworld.

Now that he has the added identity of a movie tycoon, his mentality and momentum are different!

Judging from what he just said, he could easily control his fellow Hongxing members like Fatty Lai.

In the movie, even Kun at his peak couldn't do this.

After chatting and laughing, the two arrived at the conference hall.

At this time, several regional leaders had arrived.

When they saw the two of them, they all greeted them warmly, even Uncle Xing, the leader of the Tuen Mun area, was no exception.

There is no way. Wu Feng is the real God of Wealth of Hongxing, so he has to be polite.

Recently, not only has Wu Feng's TV station become very popular, but he himself has also become a frequent visitor to financial newspapers.

There's no way around it, the first version of the arcade game "Ong-Bak" was simply too popular.

Even Mr. Lin, an arcade machine trader, can earn hundreds of millions of wealth, not to mention Wu Feng, the big boss behind the scenes.

Just by relying on the research and development and sales of arcade machines, Wu Feng became a famous new rich man in Hong Kong Island.

What is this? It’s definitely a legend of wealth.

Furthermore, unlike those established tycoons, Wu Feng's recent rise to fame was entirely due to new technologies and new sectors, unlike the established tycoons' favorite pursuits of real estate and finance. Currently, with Hong Kong's manufacturing industry in decline, Wu Feng's rapid rise and the means by which he accumulated astonishing wealth in such a short period of time are truly remarkable.

Even financial newspapers are more willing to report it.

After all, the track on which Wu Feng accumulated his wealth is indeed attractive when reported.

Not only that, several new game production companies have emerged in Hong Kong Island as a result of the impact.

It just so happens that Hong Kong Island has a sufficient library of kung fu films, which is even unique in the world.

There is no shortage of story material for arcade games. As long as you have sufficient technology and are willing to invest money, it is not difficult to develop new arcade games.

I heard that even those old wealthy families were secretly involved.

Arcade game development is definitely a new way to make money!
For college students majoring in related fields, this is definitely a great benefit!
In fact, there are many universities in Hong Kong Island itself, but the number of college graduates each year does not match the demand at all.

Not every university graduate can become a white-collar worker in Central.

Besides, many university graduates with technical majors may not be able to adapt to white-collar jobs.

The emergence of a new field can benefit a wide range of aspects.

For example, the film and television industry is a direct beneficiary!
I heard that the number of kung fu movies launched recently has shown a surge in popularity.

With the capabilities of Hong Kong's film industry at the moment, they might be able to produce several high-quality kung fu films that have never appeared in the past.

As long as the box office performance is good, if an arcade game is made based on the story prototype, it will be a huge profit.

Golden Harvest and New Princess successively launched arcade machines of the same name, "Dragon Brothers" and "Dragon Tiger Wars". Although the sales were not very hot, there was still a shortage of thousands of units.

Thousands of arcade machines mean tens of millions in profits.

Even if the profits are shared with the R&D company, there will still be tens of millions in profits in the hands of Golden Harvest and Golden Princess.

What is this? A newly excavated gold mine.

If they also had the channels to sell the two arcade machines to Europe and the United States, the revenue might exceed 100 million.

What is this concept?
How many hit movies do they have to make to earn such astonishing profits?
It is said that Bai Ge Wu has become the most awesome director in Cinema City.

Who can make a gun battle movie, and do it quite well?

At this time, Baige Wu was directly connected to Boss Lei of Princess Jin.

In addition, directors who have the ability to shoot high-quality action movies have suddenly become popular.

For example, the value of those martial arts teams has skyrocketed recently and they have been receiving many film offers.

Even the movies shot by Cheng Shilon were affected and interfered with!

That's at least tens of millions of profits. Who wouldn't be jealous when seeing that?

I heard that even Uncle Shaw, who had already closed the Shaw Brothers Studio, wanted to get involved.

The Shaw Brothers film library is so vast, there must be movies suitable for adaptation into arcade games!

It can be said that Wu Feng's efforts have directly made the Hong Kong film industry more prosperous.

With astonishing profits in the tens of millions involved, even those old wealthy families who have always been high and mighty have to look up to the action stars in the film and television industry.

As long as it helps them make money, they will naturally curb their pride.

Not to mention, Hong Kong action stars like Cheng Shilong and Hong Xinbao now have ways to monetize their huge fame.

As long as you own enough copyrights of works, you can easily join the ranks of billionaires.

With such wealth, one's status and position will naturally rise in a place like Hong Kong Island.

Wu Feng has rarely heard names like "actor" and "lowest class" recently.

Even female celebrities have benefited greatly from this!
For example, this year, Debao launched the first season of the very famous "Royal Sister"!
The box office results were quite good, which directly promoted Yang Ziqiong to the ranks of first-line female stars.

Originally, Mr. Pan just wanted to promote his girlfriend and his company's luxury goods at the same time. However, "Royal Sister" became too successful, so he immediately started spending money to create an arcade game with the same name.

The one that made the biggest move was naturally Golden Harvest, which saw the opportunity.

In the entire Hong Kong film and television industry, apart from the now-defunct Shaw Brothers, the most successful company in producing kung fu films, which also owns the copyrights to many excellent kung fu films, is Golden Harvest.

D&B has "Sisters in Royal Court" and Golden Harvest has "Police Story"!
Cinema City has "A Better Tomorrow" and Golden Harvest has the "God's Arms Series"!
Judging from the situation, Time and Space originally only filmed two parts of the "God's Armor Series", and it is estimated that it will be filmed as a long-term series, otherwise wouldn't it be a waste of the big brand of "Asian Eagle"?

The explosive popularity of "Ong-Bak" made the two bosses of Golden Harvest restless.

Cheng Shilong and his fellow brothers shot Kung Fu films from the Republic of China. If they were integrated together, they could really create a fighting game similar to Ong-Bak.

Hong Xinbao, whose career had begun to decline due to the filming of "Eastern Condors", now focused on the development of games with copyrighted works.

In short, the Hong Kong film industry is quite turbulent at the moment.

This situation has left the Taiwanese film producers, who have just been relaxed, quite confused.

In fact, Hong Kong Island’s real golden age of film began with the influx of Taiwanese film producers into Hong Kong. Those who understand will understand.

But the situation is very different now. Although the abundant funds brought by Taiwanese film producers are very attractive, they are not as crazy as in the original history.

At least, big companies like Golden Harvest, Golden Princess and D&B are simply not able to distribute profits from their key projects.

In fact, the representatives of the golden age of Hong Kong movies are the leading film companies and films.

As long as they don't have any problems and have sufficient sources of profit, the golden age of Hong Kong films will not fluctuate drastically due to the large amount of funds flowing in and out of Taiwan.

Are you kidding me?
Even if you help wash the rice, how much can you make from a movie?

But if a high-quality movie is made, not to mention the box office revenue itself, the revenue from just successfully adapting the arcade game will be quite astonishing.

At that time, will the money be shared with the Taiwanese film producers who have investment shares?
Don’t even think about such a good thing!

Maybe, relevant professionals from Taiwan might be hired with high salaries and come to work in Hong Kong. It is not impossible for such a thing to happen.

The greater possibility is that the relevant practitioners in Taiwan have become arcade R&D outsourcing companies for many film and television companies in Hong Kong, which would be very interesting.

Not only was the film and television industry greatly affected, but the leaders of the Hongxing Gang also gained obvious benefits.

How should I put it, their game hall business is quite booming.

Even Hong Kong Island has become the arcade game center of East Asia.

Not an exaggeration at all!
Hong Kong Island's economic scale is there, and there are indeed too many clubs. The density of arcade game halls is exaggerated. In addition, the frequent appearance of new arcade games has attracted many fans from Macau, Taiwan, and even Japan and South Korea.

The regional leaders of Hung Hing had long witnessed Wu Feng's methods of making money.

Therefore, they were also the first to follow the trend. The arcade game halls in their territory are all cash cows in their hands. How could they not pay attention to them?
Wu Feng, the instigator, is naturally highly respected.

　I was speechless. I went for a physical examination and everything was fine. But my nephew who followed me got a cold and fever in the hospital, and then quickly developed early pneumonia.
