    Sure enough, the next day, many newspapers in Hong Kong put on their front pages photos of Boss Lei walking out of a celebration reception at Xinyi City in black face.  Regarding such a thing, Boss Lei not only got furious, but also gave Mecca and the others a fatal mission. They must shoot a movie as soon as possible that surpasses the box office record of "Happy Ghost".  Such a task allowed Cai to build the new art city, a mecca where all kinds of problems have not yet been resolved, and the bald head shines brighter.  Because this task is difficult, very difficult, and even he, a veteran, doesn't have much confidence.  After all, in the Hong Kong film industry, after so many years, there are only two movies with a box office of more than 10 million yuan, "Junior Brother" and "Happy Ghost", and only "Happy Ghost" with a box office of 20 million yuan.  ¡·Part 1.  It can even be said that this movie has a great luck in getting more than 24 million yuan at the box office.  If it hadn't happened to be summer vacation, or if there hadn't been a movie with a box office of over 10 million, and "Happy Ghost" performed better than "Junior Brother", it attracted media enthusiasm to see if it could break the record, plus this movie  The film was shown in forty theaters.  Except for left-wing cinemas, they basically account for more than half of Hong Kong cinemas.  High-density media bombardment, coupled with the excellent quality of the film itself, the market has been fully developed. There are many reasons. As long as one is missing, "Happy Ghost" will not be able to reach such box office heights.  Now Boss Lei, regardless of other objective reasons, must ask them to make a movie that exceeds the box office of "Happy Ghost". This is really embarrassing.  Mecca's analysis is quite accurate. You must know that even the box office of the original movie "Happy Ghost" was only over 17 million due to the increase in ticket prices.  Even Li Mingbao initially only estimated that the box office of his movie would be around 12 to 3 million. Even if it was higher than the box office of "Junior Brother", it would not be much higher.  But the reality is that Li Mingbao¡¯s pirated movie actually sold more at the box office than the original. This was not only beyond the expectations of others, but also Li Mingbao himself.  I think when the box office came out, Uncle Six was there in person to celebrate, but Li Mingbao himself was stupid and kept asking if the box office was true.  "Happy Ghost" has become popular, not only the producer Li Mingbao has become popular, but also the new director Li Minghui is very prestigious now on the Shaw Brothers studio.  Chu Yuan, an old man who is known as a million-dollar director, does not have much confidence in front of Li Minghui, a new and talented director with twenty million dollars.  He was originally on the set just because Uncle Tim Lin valued him and gave him a little bit of status, but he became someone who was better than his peers. Even Uncle Tim Lin would often praise Li Minghui when he saw him, saying how good Li Minghui was.  If Li Minghui has benefited indirectly, then Chen Yulian, Zhong Chuhong, and Li Saifeng, who starred in "Happy Ghost", have become very popular in TVB.  Whether it's a TV series or a movie, I want to get these three people together. Even if the three can't get together, it's good to get one.  Because Li Saifeng was still studying, he had to reject many of his roles. Chen Yulian was originally playing a role in a TV series, but now she directly asked the director to change her role to an important supporting role. If it weren't for the fact that the lead role was not easy to change, the director would have hated it.  Change Chen Yulian to the female lead.  Of course, this is only a TV series that is already being filmed and is still being broadcast that has such troubles.  As for those TV series and movies that are still preparing for casting, there is no such trouble. Chen Yulian will be directly asked to play the leading role, the female lead.  With so many film appointments, Chen Yulian, who had been tepid in TVB for several years, immediately became a first-line star.  But when it comes to the cast of "Happy Ghost", the most popular one is not Li Saifeng or Chen Yulian, but Zhong Chuhong.  Because Zhong Chuhong's performance in the film has both sexy charm and girlish innocence. The two temperaments combined together give people a strong impact. Many teenagers even go to see "Happy Ghost" for no other reason than to  For every shot of Zhong Chuhong.  Under such circumstances, although she is also the heroine of Happy Ghost, Zhong Chuhong is definitely the most popular one.  Aunt Six even said good things about Li Mingbao in front of Uncle Six because of the signings of Zhong Chuhong and Li Sifeng.  The popularity of "Happy Ghost" not only directly ignited the box office market of the Hong Kong film industry, but also made follow-up works become popular. The movie was quickly released before "Happy Ghost" was even finished.  , and those who moved slowly followed the trend before it subsided.  So the summer vacation is not completely over yet, and many movie theaters have launched various ghosts.  Although the quality of these ghost contents cannot be guaranteed at all due to rush to shoot.  But in terms of box office response, it was actually very good. Although none of them could reach a box office of five million, there were still many follow-up films that could reach a box office of one or two million. ???????? Originally, follow-up films are just crudely made stuff, and the cost is very high.If you are frugal, with a box office of one to two million, anyone will make a lot of money.  Even Shaw Brothers followed suit and released the follow-up film "Martial Arts and Ghost Fighting". They also found a few young actresses, but they wore ancient martial arts costumes. According to Li Hanxiang's style, the filming was particularly salty. This is the content and "  A movie that has absolutely nothing to do with "Happy Ghost" actually earned more than 3 million Hong Kong dollars at the box office, which is something that even director Li Hanxiang never expected.  Everyone else became popular because of "Happy Ghost", but Li Mingbao, who was at the center of the storm, was originally even more popular.  But this guy is not as public as others, and there is no new topic to hype. After reporters broke all the topics that could be revealed about Li Mingbao, there was finally less news about Li Mingbao.  Among those who broke the news, there were some who sang the praises, and naturally there were also those who sang the bad news.  The one who became famous naturally said that Li Mingbao went from a boy who only knew how to fight to the producer of the most popular movie in Hong Kong. Such a legendary struggle experience makes people admire him, and Mingpao is also quite unkind, although Mr. Jin Yong has always explained  News does not survive by breaking news.  But in the case of Li Mingbao, Mingpao did not play a glorious role, and directly and inadvertently revealed that Li Mingbao was the author of "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty".  If this was just the beginning of being unkind, then Ming Pao even released Li Mingbao's "The Iron-Blooded Prodigy" while it was still hot, letting everyone know that Li Mingbao can not only film modern dramas, but also write historical articles, and even more  Martial arts novels also use topics such as Zhou Chu's elimination of three evils, and King Chuzhuang's three-year silence and blockbuster success to describe Li Mingbao's changes.  This directly made Li Mingbao's previous pen name Jianjia useless. On the new Mingpao page, it was changed to three characters Li Mingbao.  Ming Pao is using the topic of Li Mingbao as a scholar to attract people, while Oriental Daily is using the relationship between Li Mingbao and TVB to attract people. Originally, if "Happy Ghost" had not become a hit, the relationship between Li Mingbao and TVB would not be very attractive.  , but now "Happy Ghost" is a hit, and the relationship between Li Mingbao and TVB executives has been put in front of everyone, letting everyone know that Li Mingbao has such achievements and has a lot to do with TVB. If Shaw Brothers and TVB had not given Li Mingbao  With so much help, Li Mingbao would not be able to become the producer of this movie at all, and it would be impossible to set a box office record.  Ming Pao and Oriental Daily have both said that Sing Tao Daily has no close relationship with Li Mingbao because of its previous refusal to publish advertisements.  But Sing Tao Daily is not without topics to talk about. Li Mingbao¡¯s past dark experiences were dug up by Sing Tao Daily.  Of the three major daily newspapers in Hong Kong, two are popular and one is negative. They are all quite popular.  If Li Mingbao hadn't appeared outside since "Happy Ghost" was released, these newspapers could continue to sing.  So what has Li Mingbao been doing these days?  He is busy, very busy.  Since he knew that the movie would be successful, he temporarily put aside the problems with the movie and spent most of his energy on writing new scripts and updating "Kunlun".  It¡¯s not that Li Mingbao doesn¡¯t want to accept interviews from the outside world, it¡¯s just that those interviews are not of much benefit to him now.  Those newspapers already knew everything that should be known to the newspapers, so the interview was nothing more than nonsense.  He doesn¡¯t have much time, so where can he find the time to talk nonsense?  Besides, he is not a star, so he doesn't need exposure. As long as others know his name, there is no need for the outside world to care much about what he looks like.  In this day and age, coding is both a technical job and a hard job.  Not everyone can write by hand like Ni Kuang, who can write 4,500 words in an hour, and that's in traditional Chinese.  Li Mingbao couldn't do this kind of hand speed.  In the days before computers and typing, it was quite painful to write by hand. When Li Mingbao wrote "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" before, because he didn't have to rush to work, it didn't matter if he wrote slowly.  But now, whether it is "Kunlun" or a new script, it has to be written in a very short time, because there is not much time for him. The new movie needs to be released at Christmas time, and this time has already  It¡¯s early September, and Christmas is less than three months away.  If Li Mingbao doesn't hurry up, the book "Kunlun" will have to wait until next year to be written.  Li Mingbao himself doesn't care. It's no big deal to write "Kunlun" next year, but Mingpao is not so easy to explain. After "Iron-Blooded Prodigy" was published, the response was quite good. Mingpao needs the manuscript of "Kunlun" even more.  Under the premise that Ming Pao is planning to publish "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" by Li Mingbao, even if Li Mingbao is a little tired, he still has to finish "Kunlun", otherwise, he will not be able to make new movies with peace of mind.  Although because of the box office success of "Happy Ghost", Li Mingbao is not short of money. With a box office of 24 million, Li Mingbao can get more than 13 million yuan in share, and there is also overseas box office share to enjoy.  If the overseas box office sells well, the income will be more than the Hong Kong box office. It is initially estimated that it will not be less than twoTen million.  But for the time being, Li Mingbao cannot get this money, including Hong Kong's box office, because "Happy Ghost" has just been released, and the box office has been calculated, but he still has to pay taxes and other things. Once he gets the real money, he still can't get it.  Have to wait half a month.  During this period, Ming Pao's publishing fees became the bulk of the bill. Naturally, Li Mingbao couldn't offend Ming Pao at this time.  Originally, he wanted to sit at home peacefully and not go out until the filming of the new movie started. However, when someone called, Li Mingbao knew that he could not sit at home any longer.  Because the person who made this call was Zhao Yazhi.
