Chapter 534: Collective Breakthrough of Defense


    "This is ready!"


    "I signed a total of 100 pieces. How many did you sign?"


    "I have 100, too!"


    A van was driving on the way to ATV for an interview about "Happy Ghost". Liang Jiahui closed his eyes and fell asleep. Li Saifeng and Qiu Shuzhen were in high spirits, each holding a large stack of signed photos.


    "Master, how many members do I have?"


    "92!"


    "What about me?"


    "95!"


    "So few? I thought there were at least a few hundred."


    Chen Qi yawned and said: "It''s a beautiful idea. You can walk away with hundreds of members. Most of them are fans. Only those who really like you will join the club. There are active and not-so-active members in the club. Yes, those positive ones are the crystallized powder after purification.”


    "I know!"


    Qiu Shuzhen raised her hand: "Purification produces crystals, so it is called crystal powder!"


    "Wow, you are so awesome, this is physics."


    "It''s called biology!"


    “Alas, Hong Kong still has a long way to go to eliminate illiteracy.”


    Chen Qi shook his head.


    There is a difference between die-hard fans and casual fans. In later generations, celebrities with tens or hundreds of millions of followers on Weibo are all robots. Only a few thousand die-hard followers are enough, and tens of thousands can roam the Internet.


    As the saying goes, "If you don''t have ten thousand loyal fans, you will be invincible!"


    The vehicle continued to move forward, and Chen Qi asked: "Jiahui, what has your master been busy with recently?"


    "He is preparing for the release of "The Burning of the Old Summer Palace" and "Behind the Curtain". He is extremely nervous every day." Liang Jiahui opened his eyes.


    "Do you have any plans for a new movie?"


    "No, Master said you draw cakes for him, waiting for your forbidden love script."


    What about this?


    Chen Qi scratched his head. He had already forgotten about the time he fooled Li Hanxiang into saying he wanted to make a movie about Lily''s Love. He said, "We''ll wait until his movie is released. Don''t worry."


    Qiu Shuzhen was curious: "Master, what is forbidden love?"


    "It''s just two beautiful girls falling in love, making love to each other."


    "You won''t let us act, will you?"


    Li Saifeng held Qiu Shuzhen and shivered.


    "What are your age, acting skills, and figure enough?"


    Chen Qi was too lazy to pay attention, thinking in his mind, and soon arrived at the ATV building. Happy Ghost and his party went to the interview show by themselves, while he ran to Li Zhuanglie and sneaked into the editing room of "The Voice".


    "Huh? Why did you come here suddenly?"


    "Send someone to do a show, drop by and have a look."


    "You are a boss after all. This is what an agent does."


    "Where can we find agents from our company? There are too few that meet my requirements."


    Chen Qi looked at the material being edited and the post-processing staff with dark circles under their eyes and dizziness, and smiled: "Do you feel that post-processing is more tiring than working on a program?"


    "We want to die if we do it!"


    "60% of the effect of this kind of program depends on editing. Please work hard and wait until the program is broadcast. Director Li will treat you to a feast."


    "You''re in for a treat too, don''t think you can escape."


    Li Zhuanglie glanced at him, suddenly remembered something, pulled him aside, and whispered: "The advertising time of "The Voice" was sold out, more than 7 million in 2 months!"


    "More than I thought!"


    "You''re kidding, TV station, do you know what its power is?"


    In the 1980s, the average cost of TV series produced by ATV and TVB was HK$120,000 per episode. A 20-episode drama would cost more than HK$2 million. Five episodes would be broadcast per week, and the show would be completed in one month. In other words, if the advertising fee is lower than the cost, it is a loss.


    "Didn''t you sell the naming rights?"


    "The bid is too low and we are unwilling to give it up. We will wait and see when the episode airs."


    "Yes, we can sell it at a higher price in the second quarter."


    The original version of "The Voice" had 14 issues. Chen Qi made this a shortened version. The plan is to have 8 issues, which will be broadcast in two months. This is a singing program. In the past, only the finals could be shown on TV, and that was it. …


    “Let’s take a picture!”


    "Can it really be filmed?"


    "Of course, you have great conditions. Give me your contact information and I will find you for a trial."


    At the entrance of a fans club, Lin Lingdong pulled Li Jiaxin and asked the staff to help take a photo. There were many spectators who had just left the show standing around. There were also a few students who looked eagerly, hoping that Lin Lingdong would take a look at them.


    They are the parties.


    Just ten minutes ago, they were filling out forms in the club with this person named Li Jiaxin. They were strangers to each other. It happened that Lin Lingdong came over to take a look after finishing the promotion. He fell in love with Li Jiaxin at first sight and invited her to participate in the third episode of "Happy Ghost". ! two! department!


    I''m so **** off, why didn''t I fall in love?


    "I''ll contact you as soon as possible!"


    "Thank you very much!"


    Lin Lingdong deliberately spoke loudly so that everyone could hear, while Li Jiaxin bowed repeatedly.


    "I envy her so much. Can I meet her like this?"


    "I''m so lucky! Why don''t you go pay homage to Wong Tai Sin?"


    "Obviously she has a good appearance, but she looks like a mixed race. Can you do that?"


    "Ahhhh, I really want to tear her face apart!"


    Li Jiaxin listened to these words nonchalantly, but she was also very nervous. She pretended to be calm and left the theater, got on her bicycle and slipped away quickly. She found it extremely exciting because it was performed for others to see.


    Under the eyes of everyone, what I saw with my own eyes and heard with my own ears, how can it be false?


    "Hoo! Hoo!"


    She pedaled the car and took deep breaths, but she was very excited. This is how it is in the entertainment industry!


    "Yesterday, a female student named Li Jiaxin was discovered by Lin Lingdong at the club. Director Lin had just finished his promotional work and saw that this student girl was young, beautiful and had excellent conditions, and he was interested in inviting her to participate in "Happy Ghost 2"!"


    "This female student is an avid fan of "Happy Ghost" and has watched it three times. She is of mixed race and has an outstanding appearance. She is very happy about Director Lin''s invitation and is willing to participate..."


    There is also a large photo of Lin Lingdong and Li Jiaxin together.


    Chen Qi wants to give everyone the impression that "Happy Ghost" is auditioning, so that the students will go even crazier.


    Soon, a week later, "Happy Ghost" became the biggest surprise of the summer, with a mere cost of 2 million and a box office of 10 million. This result made many people break their defenses.


    Xu Guanwen is awesome because he is a genius.


    Cheng Long became famous because he created a genre of action movies.


    Hong Jinbao can carry the box office because he can fight, act, be funny, creative, and find a group of stars to feast the audience''s eyes.


    Even when "Tai Chi" and "The Love of Ghosts" reached the top, they didn''t break the defense. The former has great skills, and the latter is really touching. The investment is not small, and it can be seen that it has scale.


    What''s in "Happy Ghost"?


    Three schoolgirls laughed, cried, and got 10 million?


    The Hong Kong film industry couldn''t figure it out, and Cheng Long couldn''t figure it out either. He took a break from his busy schedule and came to watch one. He thought it was okay. Some of the jokes were great, but he didn''t like movies with little girls chattering.


    "Can this also win box office?"


    "If my "Plan A" can''t even compare to "Happy Ghost", wouldn''t it be ridiculous?"


    "Plan A" took more than a year and is finally ready to be released at the end of this year. If it really can''t defeat Happy Ghost, then Cheng Long will have to break his guard. Of course he knows that he has overseas markets, but the local market in Hong Kong is also very important.


    …


    "Is there any mistake? It broke 10 million in the first week?"


    Hong Jinbao was also chattering while holding the newspaper.


    He put a lot of effort into "Five Lucky Stars" and earned 23 million, still ranking first in the year. If it is surpassed by Happy Ghost, it will be even more embarrassing for him.


    …


    Golden Princess.


    Feng Bingzhong looked gloomy and didn''t know what to say.


    The left is very powerful now, everyone admits it, but it would be too much to just make such a film casually. Speaking of which, New Art City has been declining rapidly, but the momentum of the leftists is like New Art City in history, which can hit the box office with any effort.


    Feng Bingzhong flipped through Princess Jin''s next film, and there were two or three kittens, and sighed: "How can this be stable?"


    (besides…)
