    Yu Yunhang is not tall, wears a pair of black-rimmed glasses, and looks carefree. If he were thrown on the street, no one would recognize him as a director.  \.\ Of course, this director who has occupied a place in the new wave film movement in Hong Kong has not achieved much fame. Although his two works Mountain Dog and Fierce List both did well at the box office, in Hong Kong,  It is said that cult films have never been accepted by the mainstream. They are comparable to pornographic films. They are just selling meat and blood, and they are not something that is on the market.  ¡°However, Li Xuechu doesn¡¯t want to let go of the horror film genre. This type of film with small profits and big profits is the favorite of small companies. There may not be a big market in Hong Kong, but it will be very different in Japan, Europe and the United States.  Compared with mainstream movies with more cultural differences, this type of film is easier to enter the European and American markets, and in Japan, this type of subject matter is also easier to be accepted by the market.  I don¡¯t know if it¡¯s a cultural factor or something else, but Japanese movies like to go to two extremes. The foreign movies that are popular in Japan are not only action-themed, but also pure love-type movies that make you blush even after being kissed. The male and female protagonists  They are all as pure as a blank sheet of paper, or they are heavy-duty, and they are shot with live ammunition. Even the third-level movies that take the pornographic route do not have a big market, and the standard of today's industrial-grade movies has already been  It¡¯s quite a big game, and it¡¯s not much different from later generations.  Yu Yunhang is now sitting in front of Li Xuechu, flipping through the script in front of him.  However, unlike Xu Anhua, he had already agreed to direct the film before reading the script. Yu Yunhang, who was currently idle and panicking, did not have much bargaining power.  But looking at the script, the fire in Yu Yunhang's eyes grew stronger and stronger. This was undoubtedly a good script.  "I plan to make him into a series. At least three of them are required. The investment for this kind of script is very small, and the shooting period is not long. I think it won't be much trouble to shoot." Li Xuechu said with a smile.  Yu Yunhang hesitated for a moment, then shut up and gave up the idea of ??bargaining.  Maybe it's a series. At least I won't have to worry about food for a few years. Moreover, this is indeed a low-cost movie. The main scenes can be done in a secret room. There is no need to hire any big names. If the filming goes smoothly, it will be very good.  It can be done in a few days, and the post-production soundtrack and so on are not difficult to do.  ¡°Excuse me, what is the investment amount?¡± Yu Yunhang asked in a low voice.  "One and a half million." This is the smallest investment amount of Oriental DreamWorks except for its first work. However, if Li Xuechu was not afraid that the filming would be too bad and affect the box office in other places, one million would be enough.  "Use good film. Don't use the one commonly used in Hong Kong now, use the one commonly used in European and American movies." "This will cost hundreds of thousands more." "But it's still enough, isn't it?" Yu Yunhang thought for a while  , nodded in agreement.  Seeing that things were settled, Li Xuechu smiled and extended his hand: "It's a pleasure to cooperate. If the movie can be a hit, the company will consider giving you a share of the box office that is no less than the director's salary." Yu Yunhang reached out and shook his hand.  ¡°I don¡¯t know how to calculate the share ratio?¡± He makes movies more for fun, but that doesn¡¯t mean he can treat money like dirt.  "This city uses five million as the basis. If it does not exceed one million, the company will give you fifty thousand as a bonus. And so on. If it is from another city, it will be calculated based on the box office share, but it will be lower, one million divided into twenty thousand  ." Yu Yunhang's heart dropped.  His first two works were relatively popular, but neither of them exceeded 5 million.  Li Xuechu was secretly amused.  "Don't underestimate this share. Now the ticket prices of local movies have been rising year after year. I believe that the top 20 movies in the box office list this year will have a box office of more than 5 million. And I remember that your first two works were both ranked in the top 20  "Right?" Li Xuechu continued, "And our company plans to release this movie in Europe and the United States. I'm afraid the box office profit will be far beyond your imagination. The acceptance of this type of movie is still very high in Europe and the United States.  "Hearing that it would be released in Europe and the United States, Yu Yunhang became even more excited.  Of course, the box office share is a complete surprise, and it would be difficult to refuse even if you don't have one.  "I think I won't let you down, Mr. Li. This movie will definitely be a hit." Yu Yunhang said with a smile.  "I think so too." Of course Li Xuechu also has this confidence. Horror is one of the film themes that is least limited by time and space. As long as the film is scary enough, there is no need to worry about the market.  Moreover, this script does not involve any high technology or big scenes. A TV and a tape recorder are already available.  " Chainsaw, there are eight movies of this type in the later generations, which is enough for me to operate for ten years. There are far fewer places to modify. It is much easier to work on than The Notebook.  The two of them signedContract, this matter is settled.  The investment in these two movies is not large, and the cost of each movie together is less than half of the cost of Crisis, which was just completed before.  Compared to big-budget movies, such movies are undoubtedly more popular with film companies.  There is no way, the money is going to be needed soon, so it is better to save some money now.  No matter what, the business has finally come to an end, and the next step is to wait.   On August 24, 1982, news came out from No. 10 Downing Street that the Iron Lady was about to embark on a trip to the Far East. The first stop would be Japan, the second stop would be China, and the third stop would be Xiangjiang.  Visited Asan Kingdom on the way back home.  At this time, the Iron Lady was in full glory. The South American countries' tough moves against Britain were directly eliminated by her tougher tactics. The previously tough opponents were forced to sign contracts, and a colony was directly designated as territory.  Domestic support has reached an all-time high.  In the past few months, the UK has undoubtedly been the focus of global attention, and in this world-famous territorial dispute, the UK has also flexed its muscles in front of the world.  The former empire seems to have regained some of its former glory.  Although we are visiting four countries this time, everyone knows what the Iron Lady¡¯s goal is this time.  If another colony is taken over, the Iron Lady will undoubtedly be like her predecessor Churchill, and her reputation will reach a peak that is difficult to reach in future generations.  On September 22, 1982, the Iron Lady visited China.  The whole of Hong Kong is paying close attention to this important matter concerning the future of Hong Kong, and Li Xuechu is no exception.  However, unlike others who just watched the situation develop, Li Xuechu, who already knew the outcome of the negotiation, only cared about trivial matters that others considered boring.  "This day has finally come." Li Xuechu took a long breath.  Li Xuechu was restless while waiting for this matter. Every day when he got up, he wanted to look at the calendar a few times, as if this way time would pass faster.  Of course, he himself knew that he was doing useless things, he just couldn't help himself.  Li Xuechu himself was like this, and even Lin Yucheng became a little uneasy.  "Three billion in capital investment, that's a lot of money. Apart from the acquisition, Chu Tsai has created the biggest speculative move in Hong Kong so far." Lin Yucheng specially emphasized the word 'speculation'.  "Chu Zai, have you thought clearly? This is all your assets now, are you sure you want to invest it when the time comes?" "If you don't see the rabbit, don't spread the eagle. If things don't go as I expected, the worst is to get out of here."  Li Xuechu smiled.  "You're afraid that I'll throw my own money into the water." "It's so easy to get out of it. Someone will definitely notice this much money. If someone catches it, it will be a loss of at least 100 million.  Ah, others won't let you get rid of it so easily. " "What's this risk compared to the possible benefits?" Lin Yucheng looked at him silently for a while, and finally nodded.  Negotiations are coming soon. Will this famous fall happen again?  This Li Xuechu had no idea. It was inevitable that something had happened, but before it happened, it was a very small probability event.  To the British, this was just a small loss of face, and to the Chinese, it was just an interesting story that they could enjoy chatting with after dinner.  But it¡¯s different for Xiangjiang.  How can a small thing trigger such a powerful effect?  I am afraid that even the parties involved could not think of this, and experts and professors could not give any convincing answers.  But you don¡¯t have to worry about why things turned out like this, as long as you know the huge opportunities this thing brings to you.  When things come to a close, don¡¯t let any ¡®accidents¡¯ happen!  Li Xuechu pretended to be calm, but in fact he was inevitably nervous.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
