"Fortunately, Ah Xiong has Jingdan! Ming. () If it hadn't been for many applications to build a small studio. The land is not enough, it is really lively here. Wu Yusen looked around at the guests who came to attend the wedding. . said with emotion.
Mak Sing-hsiung¡¯s wedding was really lively. It is estimated that no one in Hong Kong can surpass him. Elites from all walks of life in Hong Kong came to congratulate him. Celebrities from the entertainment industry were all present, and companies came to congratulate him one after another. Even Hung Kam-po, a Debao company with whom Mak Cheng-hsiung had a bad relationship, came to congratulate him in person.
Hong Jinbao was holding a wine glass and chatting happily with everyone. Chen Xunqi, Cheng Long and others were surrounding him. They were talking and laughing. The media reporters immediately captured this scene. Can Hong Jinbao attend Mak Chengxiong¡¯s wedding? Say, the relationship between them has improved? They must have settled their differences, otherwise Hong Jinbao would not have come with his temper.
"Ah Xiong, look who is over there. Hong Jinbao is actually here to attend your wedding. At this time, you can make peace. In this way, our Hong Kong film industry will be a whole." Bu Wenhuai At this time, he said to Mai Chengxiong with a smile.
There are so many guests and friends today, not only from Hong Kong but also from other countries, especially exhibitors from several countries in Southeast Asia. They are all here. It just so happens that we take this opportunity to discuss future plans with other film sources in Hong Kong. Mak Seng-hsiung hasn't seen Hung Kam-bo yet.
DreamWorks lost Debao's face because of a trivial matter. Hong Jinbao is a person who takes face very seriously, so the relationship between the two people has always been tense. It can be relieved. Mak Chengxiong is naturally very happy. , leaving Weng Meiling alone here at this time, he walked over happily.
"Third brother is here too. It's a great honor for me. You must have a great time today. I will have a drink with you later." Mai Chengxiong had already started shouting before he even got here.
After Hong Jinbao heard what Mai Chengxiong said. The smile on his face was still a little stiff. At this time, Chen Xun, Qi Chenglong and others were trying their best to bring the two people together. After all, everyone is friends, because the conflict between the two people has never been resolved. It¡¯s hard for them even if they are in the middle.
How is Hong Jinbao doing? At that time, he was still a little unconvinced and said: "Today, I came here because of Weng Meitun's face. Don't think too much about it."
Everyone laughed, because Hong Jinbao¡¯s statement was indeed not poisonous. Weng Meixiandu and Mak Chengxiong are the same family.
"Okay, you came here because of Meiling's reputation. But I, the groom, also want to have a drink with you." Mai Chengxiong was determined to resolve the conflict, and he greeted her with a smile.
Hong Jinbao started talking to everyone at this time. After all, everyone is involved in movies. The topic was always about the industry. Movies soon came up. Debao Company is one of the fastest growing companies in Hong Kong. Their company also expanded rapidly in times of crisis. Everyone was impressed by his work. The courage is very promising, and it is the same as the DreamWorks model. Recently, they have begun to expand internationally. Their films are still mainly urban comedy and action films, but now they pay more attention to international elements.
After attending the special effects exhibition held by the American Motion Picture Association last time, Hung Kam-bo and Mak Sung-hsiung were very impressed. The digital field has only been established for a few years, but it has developed very quickly. It's an old special effects company. Industrial Light and Magic is also very wary of it. Last time, it earned a lot of face for the Hong Kong film industry, so this time he came to attend Mak Cheng-hsiung's wedding. "You have recently angered several big companies in Hollywood. I heard recently that people at Universal have become nervous. Spielberg is taking action again. He is planning to cooperate with Universal and Paramount to shoot new films. Several big companies have also come up with their own new films. Their approach should be aimed at us, right?" Although Hong Jinbao was a little reluctant, he still greeted Mak Chengxiong.
Huamei Cinemas is the only major Chinese theater chain in North America, and it is still in the hands of Mak Cheng-hsiung. Although he was very interested in Mak Cheng-hsiung, it was for the development prospects of Hong Kong films at this time. He still informed Mai Chengxiong.
This is certain. Although Mak Cheng-hsiung did not participate in the last special effects exhibition, he also learned a lot about the situation through reports in the digital field. The digital realm has come a long way in special effects and has become a leader. Naturally, it will become a thorn in the eyes of others. Even DreamWorks is opposed by everyone in Hong Kong. Not to mention in Hollywood.
Mai Chengxiong didn¡¯t take this matter to heart at all. After all, today was his big day. These headaches will be left for the future, and with the current technology in the digital field, even if they want to challenge, except for Industrial Light and Magic, other special effects companies will not pay attention to it.
"As a result, our situation will become difficult, noBut it has made movie fans around the world excited. If this time is correct, it is estimated that there will be a large number of new movies, and it will definitely become a festival for movie fans around the world, by the way. Third brother. Your special effects company has also been established for a while. I wonder if you have any plans for a new film? "Mai Chengxiong asked Hong Jinbao at this time.
The Hollywood film companies closest to Hong Kong films are Columbia and Warner Bros., but Columbia is no longer what it used to be and is recently in the hands of the Japanese. Birang was reorganized. Therefore, Jiahe Company, Mai Debao Company, and Warner Bros. are all cold servants. The difference is that Jiahe Company chooses suitable ones for Warner to cooperate with, and then they will screen them, while Debao Company still shoots locally, and finally hands over the prints to them for screening. , Jiahe Company also cooperates with Mak Chengxiong's Huamei Cinemas. For example, Cheng Long's "Eagle Project" was released at Mak Chengxiong's Huamei Cinemas.
"We have been discussing this matter recently. We have not yet reached a final conclusion and it is obvious that Hong Jinbao does not want to cooperate with Mak Chengxiong, so he just brushes it off in an understatement, and Mak Chengxiong will not delve into it further.
There are two pairs of protagonists in this wedding. Mak Sing-hsiung is just one. Brother's place is also very lively. In comparison, there are almost all actors there. Of course, there are also people from his old employer TVB, TVB. Manager Fang Yihua came to attend their wedding in person this time. After all, Zhou Run was their original actor, and the bride, Chen Yulian, was also a golden flower of their TVB TV station.
Chen Yulian is still a little uncomfortable with such lively occasions. When there are too many people, she hides behind her tall figure, but when facing Manager Fang. She was much calmer, after all, these people were her colleagues.
"Ah Xiong, come here quickly. Manager Fang has been waiting for you for a long time. Zhou Run shouted at Mai Chengxiong at this time. After Mai Chengxiong nodded and apologized to others, he also came over.
¡°Manager Fang, we are really honored to be able to attend our wedding.
The DreamWorks here has the largest number of employees, because most of the DreamWorks employees came from Shaw Brothers or TVB, and naturally regard Fang Yihua as their old employer. The largest number of people gathered here.
"Brother Xiong, our manager Fang has a lot of objections to you. You have to be careful. At this time, the young new director Liu Weiqiang made a face at Mai Chengxiong and warned him at the same time.
Fang Yihua looked at Mai Chengxiong, and then at the surrounding DreamWorks employees. It can be said that Mai Chengxiong developed on their basis. Just look at the lineup here. Directors include Wu Yusen, Liu Weiqiang and others, which are the pillars of DreamWorks. Actors include Andy Lau, Stephen Chow, Zhou Run and Huang Rong. These are the foundation of DreamWorks. Unexpectedly "Bottoms" are all old people of Wireless, and even Fang Yihua, who has experienced too many ups and downs, is now jealous of the junior Mak Chengxiong.
Mai Chengxiong is so lucky. In the eyes of everyone, this Mai Chengxiong is simply a lucky man favored by God. Those things that others cannot do or dare not do are also lucky enough to succeed. He has tried them all, such as Using Zhou Run to make films was something that almost many companies had tried before him. But this "box office poison" has always been with Zhou Run, but after working with Mak Sing-hsiung once, "A Better Tomorrow" became a hit. Then it was out of control, Zhou Run became the number one box office star in Hong Kong, and those Mak Sung-hsiung dared to hire celebrities who were in a very low state in the entertainment industry, and actors who had just debuted. This courage was something that even the bosses of big companies couldn't do. That's why DreamWorks was able to achieve today's success and become a global leader in one fell swoop. The most famous company in Hong Kong.
"Ah Xiong, you came just in time. I just discovered that your DreamWorks is almost all people from the original Shaw Brothers. Fang Yihua said with emotion at this time, Shaw Brothers and DreamWorks are two extremes. Shaw Brothers had no choice but to transform, and DreamWorks is in full swing.
Mak Chengxiong couldn't guess what Manager Fang said, so what? Shi Shi laughed and said: "This means that our DreamWorks and Shaw Brothers are also connected to Wireless. For example, today's wedding, Meiling is a Wireless Not to mention the actress Xiao, brother and sister Lian, you can all represent your mother's family today."
Mai Chengxiong's words immediately aroused everyone's laughter. What he said was absolutely correct, and other people agreed with it very much after hearing what he said. They quickly changed the situation, so that even if Fang Yihua had complaints at this time, he had no choice but to In the stomach.
"Well, you are absolutely right. Meiling and A-Lian are both members of our wireless network. In this way, we can be considered family members. However, it is not that simple for you to marry one of us, especially It¡¯s Ah-Lian, she¡¯s the star we¡¯ve been advocating for recently, and I¡¯ve also heard that this Ah-Lian will fade out of the entertainment industry after she gets married. This will make us very embarrassed. Fang Yihua happened to be using Mak Cheng-hsiung at this time. ???, directly stated a difficult problem. Fang Yihua suddenly said this, and everyone felt a little uneasy. It seemed that Wireless was not here to attend the wedding today, and there was something in their words.
But DreamWorks also has many people who came from Wireless or Shaw Brothers. They don¡¯t want the two owners to fall out. Wu Yusen, Liu Weiqiang, Zhou Run, Zhou Xingchi, Chen Yulian and Weng Meiling are all nervous at this time. Looking at the two people, especially Mak Chengxiong, I don't know how he should break Fang Yihua's hidden needle this time.
Of course, Mak Cheng-hsiung still laughed. He couldn't take this kind of thing seriously. He smiled and said to Fang Yihua: "Oh, listen to Manager Fang, do you TVB have the idea of ??making a movie again? I guess Hong Kong movie fans will definitely be excited when they hear this news. Beat gongs and drums to celebrate.¡±
When Mak Sing-hsiung said this, people here pricked up their ears. Shaw Brothers was originally the largest film company in Hong Kong, and after being at the leading position for decades, they never thought that Run Run Shaw and Fong Yat-wa would be so straightforward.
After Fang Yihua listened to Mai Chengxiong¡¯s words. He smiled softly, with a slight smile, "The competition among TV stations is also very fierce now. In order to compete for ratings, various TV stations are doing all kinds of tricks. Just these things have already made us very anxious. Other things , naturally I have not had this experience, but I admire you very much. You poached three promising people from our wireless company. I think you should also compensate our wireless company for its losses."
Judging from Fang Yihua's expression, what she said was half true, but Mak Chengxiong also poached three promising people from them. Of course, these three people were Zhou Run, Weng Meiling and Chen Yulian. Wu Yusen and Liu Weiqiang also Zhou Xingchi is naturally not included. After all, they only discovered their talents after coming to DreamWorks. But the three people mentioned above have already become stars when they were at TVB. "Of course it is. Moreover, DreamWorks and TVB have cooperated many times and are close partners of Feizhuo. After this wedding, we have a special relationship. TVB has the most qualifications in the entertainment industry. Old man, being able to maintain a cooperative relationship with you is also our biggest blessing at DreamWorks."
Although Mai Chengxiong¡¯s words were not directly stated, everyone had already heard what he meant. At this time. The smile on Mai Chengxiong's face is still on his face. Several people who are familiar with Mai Chengxiong are speculating on Mai Chengxiong's thoughts. It seems that this Mai Chengxiong does not engage in loss-making business. This time, when he said that he would compensate Wireless, there must be other things. abacus.
However, these are all swirling in the hearts of both parties, and no one has spoken out. However, in the eyes of outsiders, this matter is very sensational. Mak Chengxiong actually compensated TVB. I don¡¯t know what method he will use, and Mak Chengxiong also He was famous for his clever ideas, and naturally no one could guess what he was thinking. The less they could guess, the more curious everyone became, and soon even those on the periphery joined in at this time.
Fang Yihua's eyes suddenly lit up. Mak Sing-hsiung actually agreed to her request. Needless to say, Mak Sing-hsiung's name is well known in Hong Kong. Even if it doesn't work out, if he can be invited to appear on the TV station, the ratings will be high. It would soar. Of course, if Mai Chengxiong had made other decisions, the effect would have been better. At this time, she suddenly felt anxious and wanted to know what kind of medicine Mai Chengxiong was selling in his gourd.
Even Fang Yihua is like this, so it goes without saying what other people think.
Mai Chengxiong really has his own ideas this time. After all, we have been cooperating with TVB for so long. The other party has always taken care of DreamWorks, especially since many people in DreamWorks came from Wireless or Shaw Brothers. By doing this, Mak Cheng-hsiung is also trying to convince people with his virtue.
Of course, Mak Cheng-hsiung would not express his thoughts in public. Soon the two newlyweds and related people from DreamWorks and Woolen TV all walked into the inner hall. They were specifically discussing this matter.
Zhou Run was probably dragging his feet. When Mai Chengxiong came to him, he suddenly whispered: "Ah Xiong, this matter all happened because of me. I don't think you should suffer because of us. After all, it is wireless If there is compensation for the matter with us, it should be compensation from us. It is best not to contact DreamWorks about this matter."
Although Zhou Run has very deep feelings for Wireless. But his feelings for DreamWorks are even greater. And since this incident started with him, he naturally couldn't implicate DreamWorks. At this time, he still stood up.
Mai Chengxiong nodded, smiled and said to Zhou Run: "Brother, don't worry, I will not harm the interests of DreamWorks, but this is also my big day. Weng Meiling was also a member of Wireless , Manager Fang is right, I have taken advantage of them a lot, leave this matter to me, believe me.
??Mai Chengxiong isThe mastermind of DreamWorks, his words had an immediate effect. After hearing his words, Zhou Run, who was originally worried, became more confident and calmer. He looked at Mai Chengxiong with deep eyes. He believed in Mai Chengxiong very much.
"What?.
"What!"
Mai Chengxiong's words are not shocking and he will die. This sentence actually shocked everyone present. Everyone was staring at Mai Chengxiong. Could it be that Mai Chengxiong was so happy that he got carried away?
Even Manager Fang himself did not expect that Mai Chengxiong actually found this method. After everyone entered the room, Mai Chengxiong expressed his idea of ??filming a TV series.
Everyone's brains were in a panic. Although filming movies and filming TV series are both in the category of filming, and there is not much difference, they are essentially different. Because the length of time is different, the rhythms cannot be the same, so Good directors are all good in a certain aspect. Because he is better at this rhythm, which means that a good film director is not necessarily a good TV series director. This is something everyone knows. I didn't expect that Mai Chengxiong would make such a ridiculous and surprising decision.
