But facing young people like Li Mingbao, the old chief had to say something. After all, people like Li Mingbao, although they appear outside the plan, still have a very important position in the country. If nothing else, just talking about Li Mingbao's ability to make money has attracted quite a few people in the country. In just two or three years, Li Mingbao earned hundreds of millions of dollars. There are basically few people who can achieve this kind of ability, even internationally. It is not yet more than ten years later. With the development of the Internet, a large number of high-tech talents have become rich in a short period of time. In this era when Uncle Bill is still obediently playing small software in Silicon Valley, he will become rich overnight. , it¡¯s really quite a myth. And the speed at which Li Mingbao makes money is basically similar to mythology for people today. If such a mythical figure had nothing to do with him, the old chief wouldn't bother to waste his saliva. But the problem is that such a young man has a good impression of the mainland. He not only invests but also makes donations. " Donations are not accepted once or twice in China, but donations like Li Mingbao's without any strings attached, and also personal donations, the amount is not small. Even if Li Mingbao is not ranked first, it is definitely at the forefront. A Hong Kong family that has a good impression of the mainland is of great value in the eyes of the mainland. In particular, the industry Li Mingbao operates is quite close to the media. He may even be able to influence the media in the future, and his importance will be even greater. To be honest, Li Mingbao has a very obvious support effect for the mainland. Even with local connections in Hong Kong and a certain social status in the United States, there are not many outsiders in the country who have such advantages as Li Mingbao. . Therefore, after the old leader heard Li Mingbao's remarks, he had to preach, fearing that Li Mingbao would get into the eyes of money and end up losing his position because of money issues. There are not many Hong Kong businessmen facing the mainland. If Hong Kong businessmen with advantages like Li Mingbao lose their current position, it will definitely be a big loss to the mainland. If you can pull it, pull it. If you lose it for no reason, then you will be in trouble. Li Mingbao could understand the old leader's preaching, and he understood the underlying meaning of the old leader better. Although he is not in politics, if he cannot understand such words, and he is deceived into a bachelor in business, it is no wonder that others are ruthless. "Although I am new to the industry, I understand these issues. The reason why I am so dedicated to making money is actually not entirely for my personal enjoyment. After all, with my current conditions, even if I don't do anything else in the future, It¡¯s enough for me for a lifetime. Don¡¯t say I have enough. Even our Li family has enough. The main reason why I am so persistent is that today¡¯s movies are becoming more and more capitalized and the future development of the film industry. , to a large extent, it does not rely on the novelty of the film¡¯s story content, but on the visual impact of the film. Maybe you don¡¯t have a special understanding of the film industry. Now, with the advancement of many new technologies in this industry. The cost of film investment is constantly rising. The current Hong Kong film industry is not particularly familiar with such things, although the place where I first made films was also in Hong Kong, and I am in Hong Kong now. It also has a certain status in the film market. But I have to say that after I went to Hollywood, I realized that no matter how big the Hong Kong film market is, it is just a small stone compared to Hollywood. If necessary, they can kick it away. In Hollywood, whether it is the scale of the industry, the employees, or the latest film technology, Hong Kong has no advantages. , the capital owned by Hollywood is simply not something that Hong Kong can resist. Although I say this, it seems that the future of the Hong Kong film industry is very pessimistic, but the actual situation is even more pessimistic than the reality I described. In order to change this. Phenomenon, or in other words, in order to find a way for the Hong Kong film industry to survive and prevent the whole army from being wiped out, I will work hard to make money, and I plan to use the advantages of Hollywood to assist the development of the Hong Kong film industry. As I said more than a hundred years ago, Learning skills from foreigners in order to conquer foreigners may be my current mentality. And with this mentality, I don¡¯t care about other things, everything is just about making money,¡± Li Mingbao said with a heavy heart. ¡°If there was an element of acting in the beginning, but the more Li Mingbao talked about it, the more he thought about the future decline of the Hong Kong film industry, and even the mainland film industry, which would become Hollywood¡¯s cash machine, Li Mingbao felt inexplicably sad. Seeing Li Mingbao's appearance, the old chief's brows furrowed even more. In the current opinion of the old chief, Hong Kong's film industry is definitely in a prosperous situation. The old chief also feels that Hong Kong's film industry can draw lessons from the mainland film industry. We called Li Mingbao here today. A large part of the reason is that Mr.The director wants to use Li Mingbao to improve the current situation of mainland movies. ¡°But I didn¡¯t expect that Li Mingbao would actually give himself such an answer now. A prosperous industry was actually said to be in danger by Li Mingbao, which made the old chief confused. "When you say this, it seems to boost other people's ambitions and destroy your own prestige. In my opinion, the Hong Kong film industry is still very dynamic. Even developed places like Japan have released many of your Hong Kong films. ? Under such circumstances, you actually said that the future of Hong Kong movies is in jeopardy, and the sense of worry is too serious? " "It's not serious, it's not serious at all. Maybe the concept is very vague, then I will Let me tell you something basic. Just in terms of personnel, the gap between Hong Kong and Hollywood is as obvious as that between adults and children. The number of actors in Hollywood is much higher than that in the Hong Kong film industry. There are even more practitioners in the entire industry, and this even includes Hong Kong¡¯s television industry. If this is just because of Hong Kong¡¯s industrial structure, I won¡¯t say anything. After all, the market capacity is limited and there is no way to make up for the inherent conditions. But the problem is that Hollywood has basically absorbed the essence of European and American movies, and has created countless sparks. In terms of consciousness, there is a big gap between Hollywood and Hong Kong. This is the most terrible thing. Regarding the box office, it just depends on the pace of development of the industry. No one can deny that Hollywood has a unique advantage in the entire industry, but this unique advantage has been used to the extreme by Hollywood, just like driving a sports car. , even if the film industry in other regions cannot compare with the advantages, it cannot actively widen the gap. But it is a pity that Hong Kong has such signs now, even if Hong Kong films can radiate in less areas than before. It's a long-term progress, but the road has gone astray. Even if there is a moment of glory, it is not surprising that it suddenly collapses. I don't want Hong Kong movies to be unable to fight back when they really face Hollywood, so. I just want to bring Hong Kong's movies back on track, and the most important thing about doing so is financial security. Under such circumstances, I naturally won't have much interest in artistic films. The ability to spread is because there is soil for ideas to exist. If there is no soil, no matter how advanced the ideas are, they will not be able to survive," Li Mingbao said. ¡°You said that Hong Kong¡¯s path is on the wrong track, can you be more specific?¡± At this time, the old chief¡¯s tone also became serious. If he still had the idea of ????letting Li Mingbao drive the Hong Kong film industry to contribute to the mainland film industry, then the question he is most concerned about now is where Hollywood is strong. Without solving this problem, his previous ideas will be completely meaningless. After all, the mainland occupies a different position from Hong Kong. The collapse of Hong Kong's market is the collapse of the market of a small island, which does not involve a large level. But if mainland films collapse inexplicably, it will not only be a market problem, but also a problem of public opinion and publicity. There is no comparison between financial losses and political losses. "Before me, investment in filmmaking in Hong Kong was compressed as much as possible. There was a problem with the return rate, and there was also the reason Uncle Six and the others were so frugal in making films. As long as the film could make money, they wouldn't care too much about some details. Everyone has seen the consequences of this. In the mid-to-late 1970s, there were basically few movies that could make money in Hong Kong, especially Shaw Brothers. It can be said that Shaw Brothers was beaten by itself. The bad films were destroyed. Other companies may be better than Shaw Brothers, but in fact they are not much better. Whether it is Zou Wenhuai or Lei Juekun, they all want to get the maximum benefit at the minimum cost. Although everyone enters this industry to make money, making money like this completely blocks their own avenues. So after I appeared and several movies were hits at the box office, they all realized it. This problem is slowly changing now, and it is much better than before. And the reward for this is that now Hong Kong movies, even the Japanese market, can be said to have huge returns. But just doing this is not enough for the rapid development of the film industry that is now passively driven by Hollywood. Because Hollywood is advanced, it has enough time to formulate rules and guide them for more than ten years, or even longer. The development path of the film industry in it can even regard the rules they set as standards. In this way, although there is no temporary harm, we will stumble on this in the future. What I lost during my time in Hollywood was the entire industry.??Although it's not long, you can somewhat see what the development direction Hollywood has set is. And I am also trying to use the rules set by Hollywood to make my own movies. Then I saw the effect of the movie, and I understood that if Hong Kong¡¯s film industry cannot keep up, let alone market problems, then local industry personnel in Hong Kong will Maybe you can¡¯t even keep your own job, let alone make money through the market.
