MTL - Centennial Family, Rising From Hong Kong Island-Chapter 40

"Okay, I have nothing to do with you today, let Du Qifeng go ahead with us." Adao. "Don't worry, it's a good thing!"

Wang Jing and others were helpless, and Du Qifeng could only resign and follow Ah Tian and others.

As soon as they left, Wang Jing and others quickly ran back to the studio, calling for people, moving soldiers for help, and then looking for someone to pass the relationship, trying to find a way to bring Du Qifeng back!

Su Shaoze was speechless!

He asked Ah Tian to find a director named Du Qifeng, but he didn't expect that Ah Tian finally took out a gun and tied the man back!

Su Shaoze thought about the next ten years, the golden age of Hong Kong Island movies in the 1980s and 1990s, when many societies entered the film industry one after another.

Putting guns on actors' heads and forcing them to film is not uncommon, and actors suffer from it.

Su Shaoze did not expect that he would be the villain this time too!

I'm afraid his reputation in the film circle will not be very good in the future, but Su Shaoze doesn't care, anyway, he doesn't plan to become friends with those actors, except his own women of course!

It's not a good thing to blindly make people respect you, but also make people fear you.

Su Shaoze just let them help him make money and launder money!

In the bar, looking at Du Qifeng who was sitting on the sofa opposite him, looking very nervous, Su Shaoze handed him a cigarette and poured him a glass of wine himself.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Du, my subordinates are ignorant and offended, I apologize to you for them!" Su Shaoze said with an apologetic smile.

"It's okay, it's okay!" Du Qifeng quickly got up and waved his hands and said, terrified.

The young man on the other side looked a few years younger than him, and a little more handsome than the current popular star, but Du Qifeng didn't dare to care about it at all.

Even cautiously, frightened!

"Introduce myself, my name is Su Shaoze!" Su Shaoze introduced himself.

"Young Master Su, hello!" Du Qifeng said hurriedly.

Su Shaoze smiled lightly and didn't care about these titles, but said, "I take the liberty to invite Director Du to come here today because there is a movie that wants Director Du to be the director." "Of course, I will pay a lot of money. , I, Su Shaoze, won't be as stingy as Sir Shao."

After Su Shaoze finished speaking, Du Qifeng was stunned.

He didn't expect that these members of the community had "tied up" themselves, so they wanted to make a movie!

"This, is what you said true? Let me make a movie?" Du Qifeng said in disbelief.

He is a newcomer and has only made one movie. He doesn't understand why Su Shaoze chose him.

But now Shaw Brothers is about to stop work, and his next movie is still a long way off. If he can continue to be a director and make movies, of course Du Qifeng is very willing.

The only thing to worry about is the identity of the investor, the underworld!

But if Su Shaoze knew about his worries, he would only laugh at him for being stupid!

You must know that in Hong Kong Island in the 1980s and 1990s, more than half of the investment in filming came from associations, which were not very clean.

I haven't seen any of those directors with backbone!

Seeing that Du Qifeng was still a little hesitant, Su Shaoze continued: "] This time I plan to invest 5 million to make the most realistic and exciting sci-fi movie."

"If the social director is willing to direct, you will receive a salary of 200,000 yuan!"

After Su Shaoze finished speaking, Du Qifeng opened his eyes wide, and kept recalling a few key words in his mind.

"Sci-fi, five million, two hundred thousand~"

Five million Hong Kong dollars to make a movie is definitely a big investment in this era. To be a director of such a big production is simply too attractive to Du Qifeng.

Moreover, sci-fi films are also the type that all directors dare not touch, because if the funds are not enough, there is no sense of sci-fi at all.

This time, someone had paid 5 million to make a sci-fi film, and Du Qifeng's heartbeat began to speed up.

What's more important is the salary of 200,000 yuan!

You must know that Du Qifeng has only just made a movie, so he is a newcomer.

For the first movie, he didn't get paid at all, and he only got a basic salary of a few thousand yuan, and 200,000 Hong Kong dollars was a sky-high price for him!

And Du Qifeng also has no choice.

Opposite him is an underworld boss, and the conditions are so good. If you don't agree, will you look down on him?

Du Qifeng was worried that he would not be able to get out of this bar!

"Okay, I've accepted this movie. Since Young Master Su looks down on me, Du Qifeng, then I must work hard to make the movie well." Du Qifeng said firmly.

"Okay, I believe in Director Du's strength!" Su Shaoze laughed and raised his glass.

Du Qifeng also hurriedly got up and touched Su Shaoze and drank it!

Then Su Shaoze began to arrange: "You first set up the crew, the funds will be in place soon, and I will arrange the heroine's candidate!"

Du Qifeng nodded quickly, but secretly said in his heart: "This heroine must have a very close relationship with Young Master Su, so be careful in the future!"

The two roles of investor and heroine are simply scandal makers.

Du Qifeng is not a messenger either, he must understand that Su Shaoze is a woman who wants to throw money at him!

The beacon fire show princes, just to make a beautiful smile, this kind of thing is too normal now!

I thought to myself, even if the aunt had a particularly bad temper and was particularly difficult to serve, he would have to endure it!

But on the surface, he said: "Young Master Su, don't worry, Shaw is about to stop now. Many people don't have jobs. If you bring some people over, you can build the crew. If you want to rent the filming equipment, you can also rent the Bu's."

"Well, the crew will hand it over to you. This is the script. Take it back and take a good look at it." Su Shaoze took out a stack of printing paper.

On the top cover are three large characters.

Terminator! ,

Chapter 60 The Terminator

In the evening, Su Shaoze returned to Qingshanwan Villa and opened the door with the key.

I happened to see Zhao Yazhi wearing home clothes and working in the kitchen with an apron. When Su Shaoze came back, he came over happily and gave him a hug.

Then he turned his head and hurried back to the kitchen, saying, "I'm still cooking porridge in the kitchen! Watch it, don't get burnt!"

"You wash your hands first, and dinner will be ready in a while!"

Looking at Zhao Yazhi, who was a little bit in a hurry, Su Shaoze's eyes were gentle and he smiled softly.

Now Zhao Yazhi has lost his youthful aloofness, and instead looks a little cute, more like a good wife and mother.

He took off his coat and hung it on the hanger, then rolled up his sleeves and walked into the kitchen to fight Zhao Yazhi.

"Why did you come back so early today?" Zhao Ya asked.

"The business negotiation went well, so I'll come back sooner and tell you sooner!" Su Shaoze said with a slight smile.

Zhao Yazhi was instantly interested, and said with bright eyes, "Is the movie going to be filmed?"

Su Shaoze smiled and nodded: "The director is confirmed, the crew will be built soon, and the funds will be 783. The movie project is about to start, and you are the heroine!"

"Ahhh~ Great, I'm going to be the heroine!"

Zhao Yayi jumped up happily and ran onto Su Shaoze, venting his excitement, but how could Su Shaoze hold back!

"Ah - I'm still cooking porridge!"

"Don't mind it~"

A good pre-dinner exercise, a not-so-delicious dinner.

The food was a little cold, and the porridge was scorched. After Zhao Yazhi took a few bites, he pestered Su Shaoze to tell her the plot of the movie.

"After a nuclear war in the 21st century, the earth was ruled by robots, and the surviving humans gathered together to resist the brutal rule of robots. And you will play a strong female warrior and the mother of the future leader of the human resistance army."

"In order to win the war in the future, the robot sent the terminator robot T800 to travel through time and space from forty years later to the present. The mission is to kill you and make the future leader of the resistance army disappear."

"Sounds cool!" Zhao Yazhi heard the brilliance in her beautiful eyes.

In the movies on Hong Kong Island at this time, the female protagonist is completely a vase, and the characters that appear as embellishments are all in the style of the male protagonist.

But this movie is different. The heroine's role is very heavy, and the role is completely revolving around the heroine.

In the original movie, if it wasn't for the governor's terrific Terminator, otherwise this could be called a big heroine movie.

As for the male protagonist originally set in this film, the lucky boy who came from the future to rescue the heroine and became the father of the leader of the resistance army, was completely suppressed by the governor and lost his sense of existence.

Become a supporting role!

Therefore, there are only two protagonists in this play, the terminator robot T800, and the heroine Zhao Shasha, who will be played by Zhao Yazhi!

In addition to deciding Zhao Yazhi's heroine, Su Shaoze also considers the actors of T800. This role is very important and it can be said that it is related to the success or failure of this movie.

"Although the total investment of this play is 5 million, most of the funds will be used for filming, and the proportion of actors' remuneration will be very low!"

"It's your first time acting in a movie. Even though you're the heroine, the salary won't be very high, only 100,000!" Su Shaoze said.

Zhao Yazhi has no opinion, anyway, after becoming Su Shaoze's woman, she will not be short of money, and 100,000 yuan is a lot.

But she was still worried and said, "Will this drama invest 5 million, will it lose money? Can the market on Hong Kong Island support such a large investment?"

"The Shaw Brothers lost a lot of money when they heard it!"

Zhao Yazhi thinks that five million is too much to invest in a movie, but Su Shaoze feels that this may just be enough.

You must know that the director of the big ship, four years later, spent 6 million yuan in making this film, but achieved a north gate box office of 36 million US dollars and a global box office of 78 million US dollars.

The same movie costs 6 million US dollars in Hollywood, but it is completely useless on Hong Kong Island.

Because apart from inflation in the next few years, at least the labor on Hong Kong Island is much cheaper than that in the United States. There are also time costs, material costs, and the shooting efficiency of the staff in the two places.

Under the same standard, the shooting cost of Hong Kong Island is much lower than that of the United States, which is why Su Shaoze dared to shoot with 5 million Hong Kong dollars.

As for whether it can be the same as Hollywood, Su Shaozei is not too worried, because this film basically uses physical special effects.

In this respect, Hong Kong Island is no worse than Hollywood!

In fact, in the 1970s and 1980s, Hong Kong Island films could completely compete with Hollywood, and even sometimes had an advantage.

It was only because of the rise of computer special effects and market share that Hollywood gradually crushed global films.

This movie, as long as the rhythm is arranged well and the feeling of tension and excitement, will not be worse than Hollywood.

So in the face of Zhao Yazhi's worries, Su Shaoze smiled confidently and said, "Don't worry, in short, I won't lose money!"

He patted this beauty's **** and hugged her in exclamation, Su Shaoze just wasn't full!

In fact, there were some things he didn't need to tell Zhao Yazhi at all.

This movie can make money best, and Su Shaoze doesn't care if it doesn't make money, because his real purpose is to prepare for the next action.

Before long, he will have a large amount of black funds in his hands, and he has to find a way to launder the money.

Movies are the best way to go!

As long as it doesn't lose money, the movie is a success!

With an investment of 5 million, Su Shaoze can make an account of 10 million!

Then negotiate with the movie theater, and the box office of the movie can be doubled on the basis of the real box office number.

Money laundering is troublesome, but if you don't wash it, it's even more troublesome for the police to come to your door.

Thinking of this, Su Shaoze felt more and more the importance of having his own cinema.

Not only to save money laundering costs, but also because of confidentiality issues, the fewer people know about this, the better.

It only takes four or five months for filming to take place, during which time you can investigate!

Su Shaoze wants to buy a theater chain!

Of course, before that, Su Shaoze has more important things to do!

Make money!

PS: Are you interested in guessing who will play the T800? If you can't think of it, you can take a look at the truant Veyron 2, it's too awesome! ,

Chapter 61 What's the use of envy others? Take action and make money!

"Boss, it has been investigated clearly, that kid has a lover who was hidden by his golden house in Shenshui Shehuangting villa area!"

"Come here once in three days, and today it's time to see my lover again!"

In the deep water, there was a black ordinary car parked next to a highway, and Su Shaoze was sitting in the co-pilot position.
