    Therefore, this on-site signing ceremony has multiple functions for Li Mingbao.  First of all, the first role is to let the outside world see the strength of the brokerage company. What is strength?  In Hong Kong, you are very powerful unless you say you are powerful.  Strength is something that needs to be recognized by everyone before it can be regarded as your true strength. Otherwise, others will never care about your own strength.  The best way for a brokerage company to show its strength is to let others see the famous artists under its company.  There is absolutely no way to fake something like this.  After all, it is clear to others who your company is signing. If you insist on signing a third-rate actor as a first-rate actor, then you are slapping yourself in the face, and you will not need to mix in this industry in the future.  .  Li Mingbao naturally has no such worries. With the support of the three companies of Shaw Brothers Golden Harvest and Princess, Li Mingbao really doesn¡¯t have too many characters that he can handle.  If it weren't for the fact that there shouldn't be too many kings and queens, which would affect the price, the number of actors signed on-site would definitely not be a small number.  ??And in this signing ceremony, the people who are marked will become benchmarks, and Li Mingbao will have to praise them for at least several years, so this person needs to be carefully selected.  But there are a few people that Li Mingbao will never let go.  ¡° Take the Xu brothers for example. Maybe many people born in the 1990s in mainland China don¡¯t know them very well, but in fact, these brothers are quite awesome now.  Except for Xu Guanwu, who is behind the scenes, the other three are in front of the stage.  Speaking of glory, they are the most prosperous at this time. Xu Guanwen was the most famous comedy star in Hong Kong before Zhou Xingchi. The title of the cold-faced comedian is definitely not for nothing.  From 1974 to 1981, his films won the annual box office championship five times.  When filming comedies these days, the first person who comes to mind is Xu Guanwen.  He has won a Hong Kong Film Award for Best Actor, six Academy Awards for Best Actor, two nominations for Best Screenplay, a Golden Horse Award for Best Director, and an Italian Lifetime Achievement Award.  Looking at this award-winning experience, you will know that Xu Guanwen is definitely not an idol, but a real and capable person.  If only Xu Guanwen is famous among the brothers, then forget it, but as long as they are in front of the stage, they are basically doing pretty well.  Xu Guanwen is awesome enough, but his younger brother Xu Guanjie is even better.  In the long history of Hong Kong, there are actually only two singers who are truly recognized by the public. One is Zhang Suet-you and the other is Xu Guanjie.  Even Tan Yonglin has never received such a title, and his brother Zhang Guorong has also not received such a title. He uses other titles.  Although it cannot be said that the popularity of these two big guys cannot be compared to Xu Guanjie and Zhang Xueyou, but judging from the titles, they all know that there is a gap between them. Otherwise, Hong Kong would not only have two famous singers.  Not one, but four.  Compared with his elder brother Xu Guanwen, who has made a name for himself on TV, as the fourth brother Xu Guanjie, his focus is on the music scene. He started winning awards in 1975 and it was not completed until 2005. In the whole thirty years, he won  won twenty-seven individual awards.  This is still an award received after gradually retiring from the 1990s, which is basically equivalent to one award per year.  The title of God of Song is definitely worthy of its name.  At least if he were at this age, or even three or four years later, if he and Leslie Cheung competed on the same stage, then he would definitely get more flowers than his brother Leslie Cheung.  Xu Guanwen and Xu Guanjie are the best two of the four brothers, but the other two brothers are not too bad. Xu Guanying can be regarded as the gold medal supporting actor in Hong Kong supernatural movies, as long as there are movies of this type in which he is acting  , the box office is quite good.  This started in the 1980s, and in the 1970s, Xu Guanying was a great actor who had acted in movies and released records.  In the end, except for Xu Guanwu who was behind the scenes, the other three brothers did pretty well.  These brothers can definitely represent some of the actors in Hong Kong¡¯s top film and television circles.  So except for Xu Guanwu who was behind the scenes, Li Mingbao and Li Mingbao all signed contracts.  Of course, only two of the four brothers, Xu Guanwen and Xu Guanjie, could enjoy the on-site signing. As for Xu Guanying, he was still a little behind. Although he was a gold medal supporting actor, he was not a golden partner like Zhou Xingchi and Wu Mengda, so  There is no such treatment, but because they are brothers, although they cannot appear on stage at the same time, Li Mingbao also gave them great preferential treatment in terms of the contract.  ¡° It¡¯s not enough without preferential treatment. The contracts of these brothers these years are all in their own hands, and there is no exploitation by the company. Li Mingbao doesn¡¯t mind being more generous.  In addition to the Xu brothers, actors who can sign contracts at the scene include Chen Long, Hong Jinbao, and Yuan Biao (Yuan Biao's box office in Japan at this time is higher than Chen Long's)?even higher).  As for the actress, there is no one.  The people who can sign contracts on the Shaw Brothers side include Zhou Runfa (although Zhou Runfa¡¯s film contract is actually in his own hands, except for some troubles in the TV series, Zhou Runfa is now considered a free man), Zhao Yazi and Zhong Chuhong.  As for the other actors, Li Mingbao really doesn¡¯t know who he can sign.  Although Li Mingbao covets the resources of Shaw Brothers the most, the problem is that there are really not many actors that Shaw Brothers can use at this time. It happens to be in a situation where there is no talent, so even if Li Mingbao wants to sign people, Shaw Brothers  There are not two people here who are qualified to sign the contract.  Although among the male actors at this time, Zhou Xingchi, Andy Lau, Liu Qingyun, Huang Qiusheng and so on.  Among actresses, beauties such as Liu Jialing, Zhang Manyu, Zeng Huaqian and so on are now studying in TVB.  But the problem is that these people have not yet come out. Although the above people will be all-powerful in the industry in the future, their current status is actually not much better than Curry Coffee. Even if Li Mingbao wants to praise others, he will not  Maybe you can lift someone who has no status to the sky?  For these actors, it is completely flattering, with no benefits at all and a lot of disadvantages.  Therefore, the number of people who can sign contracts on Wireless's side is quite embarrassing. It seems that their number of signees is about the same as that of Jiahe, which is also three. But how many talents are available on Wireless's side, and how many people can be used on Jiahe's side?  ?  Anyone who understands will know what such a signing rate means to Wireless.  Even when Li Mingbao sent this contracted person to Uncle Six, Uncle Six still complained about why Li Mingbao didn¡¯t get two more?  Wireless TVB has so many talents, but Li Mingbao chose three people who have a close relationship with him. Isn't this bias?  Li Mingbao originally didn¡¯t want to be partial, but after seeing the people recommended by his sixth uncle, Li Mingbao felt that if he wasn¡¯t partial, he would really be digging a hole for himself.  Among the actors that Uncle Six mentioned who could sign contracts on the spot, the only ones Li Mingbao was most familiar with were Jiang Dawei and Di Long. Uncle Six even pulled out Li Xiuxian in order to make up the number. God knows whether Li Xiuxian is more interested in making movies.  , or make more TV shows, and if you bring people like this over, Uncle Six doesn¡¯t think he¡¯s not famous enough?  As for Jiang Dawei and Di Long, Li Mingbao was sweating when he thought about these two people.  These two people are indeed very popular, even so popular that they are purple, but that is the old history. At least in the past two years, there are very few people who like to watch them make old martial arts movies.  In addition, these two buddies who used to be good enough to wear a pair of pants have now parted ways for a long time. Even if Li Mingbao forms a team, these two people may not buy it.  Di Long is still a little better. Recently, he has made a comeback with "A Better Tomorrow", and he has not lost any of his prestige. Being a protagonist means being a protagonist.  But because Di Long's potential is not great, he is already an old actor, and it is difficult to sign a direction if he wants to tap his potential. Unlike Zhou Runfa, his career is on the rise. Although he is also an old actor, the older he gets, the more valuable he becomes.  As for Jiang Dawei, it is completely a tragedy now. If he could be considered a popular niche two years ago, then in the past two years, even if he is an uncle, he has not been able to do so. It is basically equivalent to quitting the movie.  In the 1980s, he made several movies, but as soon as the 1980s passed, there were no scenes of him for several years, which was even worse than Di Long.  ¡°At least Di Long can still be regarded as a salty fish, but now he is completely salty fish. His previous popularity has been completely lost, and there are no new movies to build the character.  In another two years, perhaps only people in the industry will know that such a person exists.  With such a person, how could Li Mingbao be willing to give Uncle Liu face and let them sign a contract on the spot.  That's just making yourself uncomfortable.  Li Mingbao doesn¡¯t even know how much effort it takes to build these people with a lot of money, because they don¡¯t have many appearances in history. It is too difficult to praise these people. Even if they are praised, the ones who make the biggest profit in the end will still be  Uncle Six, Li Mingbao doesn't make much money at all.  So no matter how hard Uncle Liu tried to coerce him, Li Mingbao still only allowed three people to come out.  Because Li Mingbao feels that there are really no one else who is qualified to sign contracts with Wireless TV now except these three. The others are either old or young, and they are completely out of touch with this level.  Although Li Mingbao always felt that with more contracted actors, it seemed that the company was stronger, but after a lot of selection, Golden Harvest chose three people, Shaw Brothers also chose three people, and in the end, New Art City seemed to be no exception.  , otherwise some people will say that they favor one over the other.  So in New Art City, Li Mingbao also chose three people to sign contracts. Originally, Zeng Chiwei had a chance to come to power, and Li Mingbao was also optimistic about him. However, since there are already three giants in New Art City, adding Zeng Zhiwei would be more difficult.  It¡¯s difficult to handle, and Zeng Zhiwei has also been??Director transformation, so in the end Eric Tsang had no choice but to give up.  The three major companies have three people in each company, which is quite balanced. Plus some singers, Anita Mui, Chen Baiqiang, and Lin Tse-hsiang, there are fifteen people, and basically half of them have sung, and they all seem to be taking the spotlight.  .
