    Chapter 187: Ideas but no efforts. "Face" was released in Hong Kong in the next month. It once again broke Hong Kong's box office record by a slight advantage and became the most grossing film in Hong Kong's history. It was also the second Hong Kong film to break the 50 million box office record.  Recorded movies (do not spray).  ??Wu Yusen¡¯s two consecutive films have achieved both box office and word-of-mouth success, and he has become a hot director in Hong Kong and even Southeast Asia. Even Hollywood film companies have shown great interest in him.  "Face" is still showing in Southeast Asia today, with box office and word-of-mouth success going hand in hand, sweeping almost all countries, and no one can compete with it.  Countless filmmakers in some areas even protested and wanted to boycott Hong Kong films.  However, it was overshadowed by the enthusiasm of movie fans.  The movie is about to be released in North America. Regardless of the box office, although the investment in this movie is huge, it has recovered its cost in Southeast Asia and even made a lot of money.  The Hong Kong blockbuster movies launched by Zhang Yi have been successful one after another, making countless film companies and investors bright-eyed and excited.  Although big investment risks are high, the rewards are extremely rich.  "Face" broke the box office record, and Tycoon Lei couldn't wait to hold a grand celebration party. Zhang Yi, as the screenwriter and investor of the film, naturally had to attend.  Of course, Tycoon Lei invested 40 million in this movie. Although Zhang Yi also invested, he only accounted for a small portion, and it was very small.  His gains from this movie, not to mention compared to "Resident Evil" and "Rescue", even "My Sassy Girl" brought Zhang Yi higher profits than him.  Even though "Face" surpassed "Resident Evil" at the North American box office.  "Mr. Zhang, why are you alone? Didn't Miss Zhou come with you?" Lei Daheng said to Zhang Yi with a smile.  "She was exhausted from filming recently, so I asked her to go back and rest." Zhang Yi smiled and said.  "Mr. Zhang is so kind to Miss Zhou." Tycoon Lei smiled and then said, "I wonder how the movie Mr. Zhang is filming now is going?" "The scenes in Hong Kong are almost done, and I will go to the mainland soon." Zhang  Yi said.  "Mainland? I heard that Mr. Zhang's "Ip Man" is extremely popular in the mainland. The box office has been close to that of "Shaolin Temple", and it is still being released today?" Lei Tycoon asked.  "Although the film market is still in its early stages of development, it has great potential. After all, the population is extremely large, and it is not something that can be compared to one city or one place in Hong Kong." Zhang Yi smiled and said.  Zhang Yi was a little surprised by the box office performance of "Ip Man" in mainland China. After all, not everyone can copy the miracle of "Shaolin Temple".  However, the ticket price of "Ip Man" is higher than that of "Shaolin Temple", and relatively speaking, the number of people watching the movie is much lower.     certainly.  The longevity of "Ip Man" is still amazing, at least it is still showing hot scenes.  "I heard that Mr. Zhang has invested hundreds of millions to build a movie theater in mainland China?" Tycoon Lei then asked, "It seems that Mr. Zhang is optimistic about the mainland market." "What? Boss Lei is also interested?" Zhang Yi smiled.  , then said.  ¡°Where are you planning to build on the mainland?¡± Boss Lei then asked again.  "Xi'an!" Zhang Yi said immediately.  After some investigation, Xi'an was finally chosen instead of Hengdian.  After all, Xi'an showed better conditions at this time, and the local government provided great support.  When Boss Lei heard this, he just nodded.  He didn't continue to talk about this aspect. It was obvious that he wasn't very interested in investing in a movie theater. He just asked casually.  "Mr. Zhang, are you interested in collaborating again? No matter how much you invest, it won't be a problem." Tycoon Lei said again.  Apparently he got a taste of it this time.  "Haha." Zhang Yi smiled and said, "Of course there is no problem in cooperating. But I'm afraid it will take a while. My current movie plans are all scheduled for the year after next." Upon hearing this, Tycoon Lei.  But he smiled and said without giving up: "Mr. Zhang is talking about his own shooting plan, right? There are many ways to cooperate. Just like this "Face". After all, it didn't waste much of Mr. Zhang's time, right? Moreover, Zhang  The husband writes the script, but he is famous for being a quick shooter. " Zhang Yi naturally understood the meaning of Lei Daheng's words, thought about it, and said: "The bigger the investment, the more things are considered, and the script costs more.  The more I think about it, how about you let me think about it?" Seeing that Zhang Yi didn't refuse, Lei Daheng smiled with satisfaction.  After Lei Daheng left, Fa Ge came over with a wine glass.  "It seems that Brother Fa is gaining weight again for the sequel of "God of Gamblers"?" Zhang Yi looked at Zhou Runfa and said with a smile, "Being an actor is not easy." Zhou Runfa gave a wry smile. He gained weight while filming "God of Gamblers".  Later, I lost weight while filming "A Better Tomorrow", and now I'm filming the sequel to "God of Gamblers".?Want to gain weight again.  He suffered a lot.  As Zhang Yi said: It¡¯s not easy to be an actor.  And being a good actor is even more difficult.  ¡°There is no way, I have to accept this film.¡± Zhou Runfa said.  "What, Yongsheng forced you?" Zhang Yi frowned and said immediately.  With Yongsheng's style, it is very possible to do such a thing.  However, compared to other club members, the Xiang brothers have many rules.  It is rare that actors are forced to film.  It¡¯s rare, it¡¯s not nothing!  "That's not true. And the remuneration they gave is not low. However, after all, I lost the word 'box office poison' because of "God of Gamblers". If I don't star in the sequel, it won't make sense." Zhou Runfa immediately said, "This is not  Although the movie is not the script you wrote, Director Wang and Yong Sheng have to repay the favor. " "That's good! Nowadays, many groups in Hong Kong invest in making movies, and I hear from time to time that actors are forced to take roles.  In the film and television industry, you should abide by the rules of the film and television industry." Zhang Yi nodded and said.  "Hey!" Zhou Runfa sighed and said, "There is no way around this." "Brother Fa, why don't you take the lead in forming an actors' association or something to protect the rights and interests of actors?" Zhang Yi thought for a while and then said.  "Actors Association?" Zhou Runfa looked at Zhang Yi in surprise when he heard this. "Gathering the power of the industry to protect the rights and interests of actors can also promote communication between actors." Zhang Yi said.  "Ayi, if you take the lead, I think the effect will be better." Zhou Runfa thought for a while and then said.  His influence is naturally impossible to compare with Zhang Yi.  "I'm not an actor." Zhang Yi said with a smile.  "Then form a Hong Kong Film Workers Association, Directors Association, Screenwriters Association, Actors Association, all of them. Ah Yi, now you have this appeal." Zhou Runfa seemed to be inspired by Zhang Yi and said immediately.  When Zhang Yi heard this, he looked at Zhou Runfa in surprise. He just said it casually, but he didn't expect that he would get into trouble.  "I don't have the time, nor the energy." Zhang Yi smiled and said, "Brother Fa, you can find some more popular actors, directors, screenwriters, etc. If you need any help, I will definitely not refuse.  "A Yi!" Zhou Runfa seemed to want to persuade, but Zhang Yi waved his hand to stop him.  "Brother Fa, it's not that I don't want to, it's just that I can't get out." Zhang Yi said.  Zhou Runfa sighed and said nothing more.  Zhang Yi is indeed very busy.  In addition to movies, he also has many industries.  However, he was obviously tempted by this matter.  Zhang Yi¡¯s movie making is just a hobby now.  It's okay to come up with ideas and money.  But when it comes to contributing and doing it personally, Zhang Yi doesn't have the interest.  After all, these things have no real meaning to him.  ¡° Nowadays, film workers will always protect their rights without having to do anything.  It's good enough that he doesn't infringe on other people's rights. Who would infringe on his rights?  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
