The struggles of a failed college entrance exam candidate in Hong Kong entertainment

Chapter 068 Rumors about starting a printing business spread throughout Hong Kong and Macau.

Along with Lao Cheng's words, Brigitte Lin also remarked, "Director Su, Skyworth's (Eavesdropping on Women's Hearts) brought me a second spring in my career."

"I am very grateful for this support, but I can't help you in Cannes."

"But this year we can try to help (Eavesdropping on Women) win the Golden Horse Award for Best Film."

Sister Qingxia is now 38 years old. Her appearance has become more androgynous, but she won the Golden Horse Award for Best Actress in 90.

She has a decent network of connections over there.

Of course, Brigitte Lin was even more moved by the film "Wu Shuang" in Chow Sang Sang!

This is truly attractive to both on-screen and off-screen professionals in Hong Kong's film industry; it's a golden brand.

This year, Zhang Manyu's first nomination for Best Actress at the Berlin International Film Festival was a near-deification.

Su Nan smiled and shook his head, "Forget about the (Women's Heart) project, it's not worth investing too much in."

"This time, the US version (Dynasty Warriors) will most likely be a project to produce an Oscar winner or a Palme d'Or winner, and I'm too lazy to join in the fun."

To date, Nan-ge Shixia has only directed one film, (Kung Fu).

But (Kung Fu Hustle) was nominated for Best Director and Best Film at last year's Golden Horse Awards, and actually won the Best Original Screenplay award.

It also won the Best Film and Best Screenplay awards at the Hong Kong Film Awards last month.

This is a huge steal from (Crippled Ho), and the Best Director award goes to Xu Ke (Once Upon a Time in China 1).

Su Nan still received a nomination, and with the five or six million US dollars in revenue from (Kung Fu), he has earned quite a lot.

If the Chinese version of (Dynasty Warriors) is shortlisted for the main competition, he will lead the team there.

There's no need for the US version, and besides, they haven't even started working on the Chinese version!

If you don't go all out to bribe the judges and introduce them to pretty girls or handsome young men when it comes to winning awards, who will vote for you?

Skyworth did not promote the awards in Hong Kong's Harbour Bay, but instead continued to secure a series of nominations and trophies.

It was Brother Nan's influence that got Hong Jinbao and his associates to help push things along.

This includes Wanwan Lao Yang, Yong Sheng, Liang Jia Hui, and others.

By May 1992, the hand-cranked emergency radio factory, a joint venture between southern Jiangsu and mainland China, was in stable production, selling its products to South Korea, Europe, and the United States.

Each machine can reliably provide a net profit of $10 to Sunan. Old Yang has made a lot of money since he bet on Oracle.

In addition, Rosamund Kwan's follow-up investment in Microsoft exceeded 0.03%.

Guan Dajie (God of Gamblers 2) started with a million-dollar salary, while Huang Feihong 1 didn't have that much. It was Lao Xu who strongly recommended her for the role.

(Once Upon a Time in China II) also earned millions of Hong Kong dollars, plus a large amount of GG income.

She's getting richer and richer.

Throughout 1992, Microsoft went from less than $10 billion to a peak of $20 billion.

If we rush up to the south of Jiangsu, one-thousandth (1.5%) equals 3000 million US dollars, and Sister Guan's is 600 million dollars.

Old Yang from Taiwan didn't leave the stage as early as Su Nan and Sister Guan, but he made more and more money from Oracle.

They are also happy to help with film projects in southern Jiangsu to win awards.

After starring in "The Fortune Teller" last year and taking on several other projects, Ah Hong was in the early part of this year when the Shanghai Stock Exchange launched stock subscription certificates.

They bought a huge amount and are hoarding it to make a fortune.

Of course, you can snag a bargain in the first batch when no one else is interested, but that won't work later.

After exchanging pleasantries and jokes for a while, (Dongfang Bubai) resumed filming.

Today's main scene is a group of Huashan disciples discovering imperial troops in a deserted inn in the wilderness, and their subsequent evacuation from the inn.

Then there's the scene where Linghu Chong encounters Dongfang Bubai practicing martial arts and bathing by the lake, and there are also night scenes.

Standing outside the filming area of ​​the deserted shop in the woods.

Su Nan couldn't help but laugh when she saw Li Jiaxin's costume and makeup. "Her hairstyle looks like Mickey Mouse's."

Rosamund Kwan was stunned, blinking in confusion. "Ah Yan's hairstyle?"

This is the large round cake on top of Mickey Mouse's head that occasionally looks like it from some rear angles.

With a muttered word, Sister Guan chuckled again, "I've been brainwashing Amin quite a bit over the past six months. That girl doesn't mind being your fourth mistress anymore."

"Her idea was that since one-on-one relationships can also fail, she should end a long-term relationship."

"I won't let you be my mistress forever. It'll be good for you to experience it for a few years. You're such a delicate flower without an owner."

More than just a delicate flower without an owner, Vivian Chow's film contracts are still with Skyworth.

We met up frequently and hung out together while filming a Chinese version of "Dynasty Warriors" which took three or four months.

Vivian Chow is currently filming "The Greed of Man," a TVB anniversary drama that garnered huge ratings upon its release, propelling her to the top of the "Jade Girl" title.

Su Nan coughed and said, "Then I really thank you."

"Filming officially starts in August (Jurassic Park 1), and I'm going to go there to take a look."

At his current rate of wealth growth, he could start filming (The Matrix 1) by the end of 92 or 93.

They create all sorts of realistic scenes and physical models, and build spectacular human farm architecture.

They need to find computer experts to develop software that allows computers to control hundreds of cameras to take pictures in succession, and so on.

They staged bullet time shots, then went to Hollywood and had a long chat with special effects studios about CGI rendering.

"Aren't special effects technology enough now?" Su Nan thought of the 300 "smart pills" again.

Could he take some kind of "smart drug" and develop it himself? Theoretically, even if you spend twice as much money, you still couldn't replicate the original special effects.

Even with inadequate technology, 300 smart pills can give you a competitive edge!

Rosamund Kwan shrugged. "It's up to you. By the way, you've accumulated so much RMB since last October."

"Sanmao said he wants to buy several more houses in Shanghai, what do you think?"

His and Hong Jinbao's net profit from their Moscow trade, accumulated from October last year to the present in southern Jiangsu, plus the tribute from Sanmao, is more than 40 million RMB.

Old Hong has over ten million RMB in savings, but he can't bring it to Hong Kong. Instead, he'll buy a house in Shanghai.

Skyworth's Blue Screen Studio in Shanghai can now begin construction.

Su Nan smiled and nodded, "Buying a few more is fine, including buying in Shenzhen or building a villa myself."

"With the future development of Hong Kong Island's real estate market, living space is getting smaller and smaller, so it's not unreasonable for his family to buy a few more properties."

Ms. Guan laughed, "Then even if I make more money, I won't rush to invest heavily in Microsoft. I'll buy a big house or build a villa in Shenzhen."

"By the way, I almost went crazy from all the gossip. Jet Li's girlfriend is investing heavily in mainland real estate. She's really daring."

"It's not for personal use, it's for speculation. It's a shame that Ah Jie just breathed a sigh of relief after escaping from the jaws of death, only to encounter another surprise. I wonder if it will turn into a shock in the future."

In this dimension, Jet Li and Golden Harvest didn't escalate to the point of no return.

Last year, when Su Nan went to the (Once Upon a Time in China 2) film crew, Zou Wenhuai stepped in to pay him his salary.

Later, an older man named Cai wanted to sign Ah Jie to a long-term exclusive contract, but Li Lianjie hesitated and dared not sign.

When the situation changes, many things change!

Golden Harvest pays wages and remuneration without delay, but they still can't reach an agreement on long-term contracts.

Old Cai is a drug lord who pays money readily; who would dare to easily entrust their long-term contract to a drug lord?

He's still signing contracts to act, and then there's Ah-Jie's Li-Zhi?

Li Zhi saw that real estate prices in some places were skyrocketing, but as an entertainment star, she didn't have the resources to participate in those transactions.

They went to other places to speculate on real estate.

Su Nan lit a cigarette. "Short-term speculation is too rampant. If you can't be a player, you're just a sucker."

"Buying a home in Beijing, Shanghai, Yanghe, or Shenzhen for long-term self-occupation is a good option, with a long-term appreciation potential of 20 years."

He seemed to remember that Liz lost nearly ten million dollars in this real estate speculation.

Li Lianjie signed a short-term contract with Win's Entertainment to pay off his debts.

Rosamund Kwan nodded, "That's good. Building a villa for one's own residence definitely provides a more spacious environment."

"By the way, is our version (Dynasty Warriors) only using the Mi version's results for promotion? Or are there other strategies involved?"

Su Nan couldn't help but laugh, "This alone is definitely not enough. I've arranged to talk to Lame Ma and Old Yang."

"I'm planning to create a series of rumors about a film crew who, after working behind the scenes for a few months, learned how to print their own US dollars and then ran away to start a printing factory."

"Rumors are flying all over Hong Kong, the bigger the sensationalism, the better!"

Rosamund Kwan was instantly flustered, "..."

Who doesn't know how to do viral marketing? Ten times the power of (The Blair Witch Project).
