Chapter 805 Cannes preheating The statement of the Four Heavenly Kings began in 1992. It was first measured by music performance, not including movies. Because in the early 1990s, Alan Tam and Leslie Cheung faded out of the music scene and a vacuum appeared in the area of ​​popular male singers. Liming is very popular with two albums: "Is Love and Fate" and "Will You Come Tonight", Liu Dehua has "Can You Are You" and "The Next Life", etc., Zhang Xueyou has "Love You More Every Day" and "Breakup Always Being In Rainy Day, etc. These three were the best at that time. Aaron Kwok's route is quite strange. He first became popular from Taiwan. "I Can't End to Love You" sold more than 1 million copies, and then returned to Hong Kong to develop. At that time, radio, television, newspapers and record companies worked together to hype the concept of the "Four Heavenly Kings". Because they want to save the market, and then stir up the music scene after Alan Tam and Leslie Cheung, they must launch a new generation of idol representatives. So the four great kings were born naturally. This is the most successful hype for Hong Kong Entertainment, with influence covering all of Asia and continuing for decades. Later, they all used "the queen of the heavens" and "the queen of the little kings" to describe someone, including the "four little actresses" in the mainland. But in terms of film achievements, Liu Dehua was the best at that time, including "Carmen, Mong Kok", "If Heaven Is Love", "God of Gambling", "Gambling Man", "Supreme", etc.

Now, Chen Qi has collected three. He has no interest in Aaron Kwok. For some reason, he always feels that this person is very awesome. Liming and Zhang Min signed a contract with the company and became a rookie. Chen Qi would indicate a general development direction, such as Liming is a dual development in the music industry and film, and Zhang Min is just making movies... It is specifically operated by the company personnel. Left-style movies have been in a row for more than HK$100 million for several consecutive years, and they are operating well. With Jiahe, it accounts for two-thirds of the market, leaving the remaining share to other companies. The Hong Kong market is actually so big, with super high box offices such as "Titanic" and "Avatar", which is the exception. ……… "Wow!" "Wow!" At the 39th Cannes Film Festival, in a cinema where the films were screened, the audience greeted "Black Man" with the simplest greeting, which was to applaud and applaud desperately. When the main creators such as Tsui Hark and Li Lianjie came on stage, the applause immediately raised a decibel. Many people have a misunderstanding of European audiences, and they like to watch art films. Actually, there is no. The public never likes to watch art films, they all like to watch it! European films respect art, which is a stereotype brought by those directors and does not represent the audience's opinions. They are separated from the principle of "serving the people". "JetLi!" "JetLi!" Everyone shouted Li Lianjie's English name, and he bowed on the stage. With many overseas kung fu films, he has accumulated a lot of fans. The hard thing is that only at this time does he feel like a superstar, not someone's younger brother. "Black Man" is an exhibition at his own expense, and will sell copyrights to preheat for the release of North America. Chen Qi and Columbia President Price sat down below. Price was very satisfied with the audience's reaction and smiled: "This has increased my confidence more and more. I believe "Black Man" can also achieve good results in North America." "Confirmed August?"

"Confirm! There is no blockbuster competition in August. Americans love this kind of superhero movie. Unfortunately, there are no good examples except "Superman". I didn't expect it to be presented in your hands..." Prestones, describing it, “Silky like an ice cream.” "Haha! Then I hope I can make more and more ice cream to bring popular movies to the American people." "Your description is always so interesting. By the way, we chose the male lead in "The Prison in the Sky." "Who?" "Bruce Willis!" Chen Qi's expression is subtle. This guy hasn't played in "Die Hard" yet, and he is still a small role. He asked, "How could you choose him? He has no box office appeal." "Hollywood tough guys have been occupied by Schwarzenegger and Stallone. We want to make something new. Bruce Willis has a tough appearance and good acting skills. We asked him to put on military uniform and try it out. Wow, he is so suitable for playing in the United States. The soldier is here.” "It seems that "Air Prison" will be launched before "Life and Death Hour". When will my action team pass by?" "Contact then, you can do some training for Bruce first." "Okay!" According to the agreement, all the action scenes of the film, including the preliminary actor training, are also contracted by Chen Qi's team. He had already planned a team, led by Yuan Heping and Yuan Kui, plus Yuan Hua, Dong Wei, Mars, Zou Zhaolong, Qian Jiale, Ji Chunhua, Xiong Xinxin and others, and was extremely strong. The reward is US$400,000, about HK$3 million, he doesn't want a penny. "Wow!" There was another round of applause, but the Q&A session was over. Chen Qi and Price then came on stage and took a photo with everyone. … There are no Chinese-language films participating in this Cannes. All of them are art directors from all countries, and Chen Qi doesn't recognize any of them except Martin Scorsese. "Black Man" is an exhibition film, and the attention is not as high as that of the participating film, but it still attracted a lot of media comments. Everyone doesn’t like to always swim in the ocean of art, so they have to allow a common man to exist. “A wonderful modern action movie!” "It applies the concept of American comics superhero, but it presents so wonderful!" "Hollywood's industrial films are the first to none, but they lost to Hong Kong in action movies! Including last year's "The Deadly Express" and this year's "The Black Man", those refreshing action designs make Hollywood machoes look like gorillas! ” No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading! Such praise has caused overseas film merchants to come. The North American market was handed over to Colombia agents, and the others were snatching Europe, Australia, South America, Southeast Asia, and even Africa. A few years ago, Chen Qi was still a small party guy, and he took "Tai Chi" to Berlin with bitterness and did everything himself. Now there is no need, the company staff will deal with it. Sometimes, he doesn’t have to take the initiative in person. He just wants to take the opportunity to go abroad and travel for public expenses. "Black Man" was well warmed up in Cannes, which made everyone feel confident and they are looking forward to being released in the United States. ...

Chen Qi stayed for a few days and left before the closing ceremony. He returned to Hong Kong without stopping and went to Guangzhou immediately. Ling Mei sent a car to pick him up and deliberately circled around the doors of several cinemas. The posters of "The Rich Train" and "The Story of the Rose" were posted outside, which made Sammo Hung and Maggie Cheung particularly conspicuous. After the White Swan settled down, he bought another ticket and went to the cinema to take a look. The one that was played is "The Rich Train", which has been released for more than a week and is still on 70% or 80%. Chen Qi took Xiao Mo and sat quietly in a corner, listening to everyone's talk: "Who is better than Cheng Long? I heard that he is Cheng Long's senior brother." "What's wrong with Senior Brother? Cheng Long's number one in the world!" "Not necessarily! I've seen Sammo Hung's videotape, I'm good at it. I've never seen such a flexible fat man!" When Chen Qi heard this, he couldn't help asking: "Hey, handsome guy! Has Hong Jinbao come to Guangzhou to promote it?" "Of course, the scene is so big. Unfortunately, I didn't get the ticket. I heard that there is a beauty named Guan Zhilin, who is so beautiful..." As the man said, he also looked at Chen Qi and said, "Look at your handsome talent, you are also a rare handsome guy. Could it be an actor?" "I dare not do some small business!" He bowed his hand, stopped talking, waited for two more minutes, and said, "Why is Xiao Yang so slow to buy a drink?" "Here's here!" Xiao Yang hurried back with a few bottles of drinks and snacks, handed him a bottle, and said, "Many people have to line up, and drink this very famous one." "Jianlibao?" When Chen Qi saw that it was the famous Oriental Magic Water, or it was in bottle. He has seen Jianlibao in cans for many times. The first time he saw it in bottles, it was orange and yellow, like orange soda, and it may only be available locally. He opened it and took a sip, and tasted it. It seemed to be the same, but it was a little unfamiliar. At this time, the lights dim and the screen lights up. "The Rich Train" has begun. The audience cheered and cheered from time to time to time with the rhythm of the film, laughing and immersed in it, and obviously liked the film very much. Just like it. There are more than a dozen movies that have not been selected. Chen Qi was drinking Jianlibao and watching Hong Jinbao in the Guangzhou Cinema. Suddenly, he felt a sense of wonder in the chaos of time and space, and a sense of accomplishment. These were all careers he had created. (End of this chapter)
