Coming to Hong Kong to Build Momentum

Wei Jiahui, a gold medal producer in Hong Kong, couldn't help but snorted and ignored Zhou Shaoming's words and said: "You are just lucky! No matter what, I will not agree to your invitation!"

Zhou Shaoming could only frown at Wei Jiahui's frank words and had no choice. Although Wei Jiahui said it very straightforwardly, he could see that Wei Jiahui was an upright person, so he said helplessly: "Since you don't want to, I can't force you!

"

Zhou Shaoming slowly stood up as he spoke. Jackie Chan looked at Wei Jiahui's demeanor and gritted his teeth in anger. However, the cunning and cunning Jackie Chan did not lose his big brother style. He just smiled at Wei Jiahui and stood up to leave with Zhou Shaoming!

"Director Zhou, what are you going to do next?" Jackie Chan really wanted to promote this cooperation between Zhou Shaoming and Wei Jiahui, but faced with Wei Jiahui's stubborn character, Jackie Chan couldn't bring it together for a while!

Faced with Jackie Chan's inquiry, Zhou Shaoming sighed and hesitated. It was indeed a headache to find a suitable screenwriter for a while! He said: "I will stay in Hong Kong for a while. Anyway, I plan to come here to film, so I can familiarize myself with the environment first."

!But I have to worry about Jackie Chan later. It’s best to find an excellent screenwriter here in China!”

Jackie Chan patted his chest and said, "Don't worry about this, I'll take care of it!"

Faced with Jackie Chan's confident promise, Zhou Shaoming couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. When the two were about to leave, Wei Jiahui who was behind him couldn't help but hurriedly stepped forward and asked from behind: "Wait a minute, what did you just say? You want to come to Hong Kong to shoot.

?”

Zhou Shaoming and Jackie Chan couldn't help but turn around when they heard Wei Jiahui's inquiry. Looking at Wei Jiahui's expression, Zhou Shaoming narrowed his eyes and said lightly: "Our crew is free to decide where to shoot. You can't control this matter."

!”

At that time, Zhou Shaoming confirmed that Wei Jiahui was capable in film and television production, but for a person who did not like him, Zhou Shaoming did not need to smile at Wei Jiahui!

Wei Jiahui's expression became a little anxious. He hurriedly walked up to Zhou Shaoming and responded: "Director Smith Zhou, don't get me wrong, I didn't mean what you said. I'm just curious why you came to Hong Kong to shoot a movie instead of leaving the North American market.

?”

Zhou Shaoming and Jackie Chan couldn't help but look at each other. Looking at Wei Jiahui's expression at this time, they were completely different from before! Zhou Shaoming was stunned on the spot for a moment!

Wei Jiahui's attitude changed 360 degrees and he said to Zhou Shaoming: "I'm rude. Please sit down and explain it to me slowly! What do you think?"

Zhou Shaoming followed Wei Jiahui and did it again. Facing Wei Jiahui in front of him, Zhou Shaoming more or less felt the kindness from Wei Jiahui!

Zhou Shaoming pondered for a moment and said bluntly: "You are an upright person and speak very straightforwardly, so I won't forgive you for being crooked! When I made this movie "Detective", I had no intention of giving up the North American market! On the contrary, in the movie market I shot

Among them, the North American market is still the main market!”

Listening to Zhou Shaoming's words, Wei Jiahui's eyes couldn't help but flicker, and he nodded in agreement: "Yes, the North American film market is so profitable. How could a world-class director like you give up on the North American market! But, what you just said planned to come

What’s it like to shoot in Hong Kong?”

Zhou Shaoming narrowed his eyes and looked at Wei Jiahui, as if he was very concerned about this matter! At this time, Zhou Shaoming somewhat understood Wei Jiahui's mood! Compared with the North American market, the Hong Kong film market has been downturn in recent years, which has indeed made film and television workers

Even though there are movies in the Infernal Affairs series to save the Hong Kong movie market!

But it always seemed like a drop in the bucket. It couldn't achieve the expected results! After the police film I filmed was transformed into a police film with a Hong Kong background and released globally on a Hollywood scale, although it had a very poor reputation, its box office performance was on par with the Hong Kong classic Infernal Affairs series.

Compared with other police movies, they are like the stars in the sky, out of reach!

No wonder that as a gold medal producer in Hong Kong, he was so angry when he heard that he was filming a movie based on Hong Kong police and gangsters again! Zhou Shaoming, who finally figured out the situation, couldn't help but smile. Faced with people who were eager to know why he came to Hong Kong to shoot a movie

time!

Zhou Shaoming's eyes lit up and he said seriously: "Don't forget, although I have become famous in Hollywood and have climbed to the ranks of gold medal directors step by step, I am still a Chinese and I can't forget my roots. I happen to have an idea of ​​my own.

Once again, I want to shoot a Hong Kong-style police film. I hope this film can achieve good results, both in terms of box office and word-of-mouth! Shooting in Hong Kong is the most critical step for this filming! After all, there are some elements in the concept of this film.

If the plot about the existence of dirty things is forced to be shot in the West, I think the resulting film will look nondescript, what do you think?"

Zhou Shaoming told Wei Jiahui all his thoughts in one breath, and he was also grateful to Wei Jiahui for giving him the opportunity to say it! In fact, when Zhou Shaoming came to Wei Jiahui, he thought that if Wei Jiahui asked why he wanted to help him, he would tell him

When collaborating! So how should you answer this question?

However, to Zhou Shaoming's surprise, when Wei Jiahui heard that he was going to make a Hong Kong-style movie, he didn't even give himself a chance to express his reasons! He didn't even expect that his words to Jackie Chan would dramatize the situation again.

Wei Jiahui gave himself the opportunity to express his ideas!

Wei Jiahui nodded and said: "No wonder you gave up the resources of your Supernova Entertainment Film and Television Screenwriting Department and came to Hong Kong to cooperate with me?"

Zhou Shaoming did not say anything and waited for Wei Jiahui to continue! Wei Jiahui sat on the sofa and pondered. After turning his eyes, he asked Zhou Shaoming again: "I wonder if Director Zhou was looking for cooperation just now, are you still willing now?"

Zhou Shaoming's eyes lit up. Zhou Shaoming, who was sitting quietly on the sofa, waited for Wei Jiahui's words, smiled kindly and responded: "Of course I am willing! How could I have any reason to object!"

When Wei Jiahui heard Zhou Shaoming's words, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and said with some embarrassment: "After all, I just said something embarrassing to everyone, I thought you would take it to heart!"

Zhou Shaoming smiled and said lightly: "How could it be? I can understand your mood. As Chinese, we work together. For our Chinese film market and for the Hong Kong film market, we all need to do our part!

"

If you want to get something, you have to be willing to give. Zhou Shaoming admits that he is not a great fairy. He cannot control the fate of China and the film market. However, as a Chinese, within the scope of his own ability, as long as he can contribute a little, help China

The film market is booming, even if it is a drop in the ocean, it is worth it! I want to know. Besides Zhou Shaoming, there are more people who have the same idea. Although one person may seem very smiling, but thousands of Chinese people with ideals work together for

If you strive for this concept, then its power cannot be ignored!

After listening to Zhou Shaoming's words, Wei Jiahui couldn't help but pat his thigh and said, "Okay, since Director Zhou is so happy, I can't just sit back and ignore it. Just give your orders! I, Wei Jiahui, must be unambiguous in what I can do!"

Zhou Shaoming heard about Wei Jiahui's lofty ambitions and responded: "We are just making a movie, not going to the battlefield. It has created such a tense atmosphere that I can hardly adapt to it!"

Jackie Chan on the side saw that the two hit it off, and as the middleman who brokered the matter, Jackie Chan was of course overjoyed and said jokingly: "Wei Jiahui looks more comfortable now than those of us who practice martial arts. It really makes me feel a little ashamed of myself now."

Not as good as that!”

Wei Jiahui was a little excited. He quickly got up and personally poured tea for Zhou Shaoming and Jackie Chan. Looking at the excited Wei Jiahui, Zhou Shaoming couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Zhou Shaoming, who was still worrying about the screenwriter, finally felt relaxed and contented!

After getting Wei Jiahui to become the screenwriter of this "Detective", Zhou Shaoming began to prepare the crew members, including photographers, makeup artists, lighting technicians, etc. Especially the actors who will star in this work!

In mid-January, Zhou Shaoming came to Hong Kong again with a large number of crew members. After arriving in Hong Kong at the beginning of the month to reach a cooperation agreement with Wei Jiahui, Zhou Shaoming returned to Los Angeles to prepare everything. After more than ten days of preparation, Zhou Shaoming set foot on the film again.

The land of Hong Kong!

As soon as I got off the plane, I saw that the airport was already surrounded by reporters!

As soon as Zhou Shaoming and his team came out, reporters began to surround them. News media in Hong Kong and even China were paying attention to the filming of "Detective"!

The eyes of Hong Kong and even the world are staring at this matter! No one would have thought that as a gold medal director in Hollywood, he would choose Hong Kong as the background to shoot a movie about police and gangsters! Such a movie would be moved to the North American market.

Are they popular? If Hong Kong-themed films can really be favored in the North American market, then Hong Kong directors have long been favored by Hollywood and have left unforgettable memories in the hearts of audiences in the North American market. Why is there any need?

How about Zhou Shaoming who traveled across the ocean and came to Hong Kong to shoot a movie?

"Crazy? Or will he once again show his evil talent in front of the world? Director Smith Chow's incredible actions time and time again make it difficult to believe that he is still a normal person?" Los Angeles Daily News

Normal people, Zhou Shaoming couldn't help snorting when he saw this report. As an artist, who can be considered a normal person? When others are resting and relaxing, as a director, he sits in front of the camera again and again, all night long.

Dadan's cut and paste video!

Whenever a movie is finished shooting, it is the most painful time for directors. It is not an exaggeration to suffer from back pain and leg cramps. Frozen shoulder has long been an occupational disease for directors!

Of course, all this hard work is nothing! As a director, you are under undue pressure! This pressure comes from the box office performance and the reputation of the film! But these things are beyond the control of directors!

Some box office results may involve some luck, regardless of the time or location of the release, there is always an element of luck, but in the end it still depends on the quality of the movie!

However, in the film market, there are some classic films that had no influence at the time, but became very popular in the following years! However, such films do not bring any profit to the directors and film and television companies!

The huge expenses of the crew and the investment in the film cost are a project with huge risks. The pressure on the director is thousands of times higher than normal. Under such a life, Zhou Shaoming feels that as a director, he is not a person at all.

Normal people!

Even if the news media exaggerates himself in this way, Zhou Shaoming is not surprised at all! Have you ever seen an artist as a normal person?

However, unlike those in North America who booed everything in Hong Kong and even Asia, the media here showed more enthusiasm because of Zhou Shaoming's arrival!

Just think about the arrival of a Hollywood gold medal. It would be a sensation even in Asia, not to mention Hong Kong!

It is not yet known why Zhou Shaoming came to Hong Kong to shoot. Zhou Shaoming, who focuses on the North American market, chose to shoot in Hong Kong this time. Will he be a representative? In the future, the focus of filming movies will be on China. After all, Zhou Shaoming himself is

Chinese! After becoming famous, it is reasonable to return to China to develop!

Zhou Shaoming heard the onlookers reporters constantly asking about these topics. Zhou Shaoming just smiled faintly! He did not answer directly, because Zhou Shaoming knew that in two days, Supernova Entertainment Film and Television Company would hold a press conference here in Hong Kong. The main purpose was

The ceremony to start the filming of "Detective" has the effect of promoting the start of filming!

Regarding the questions raised by reporters at this time, Zhou Shaoming does not plan to respond for the time being!

The appearance of Avril Lavigne made the fans present scream loudly. The appearance of this popular musician in every corner of the world undoubtedly increased the atmosphere of the scene! However, Avril Lavigne, who was escorted by several bodyguards, seemed very calm in the crowd.

, listen to the song with headphones!

Under the protection of the security guards, Zhou Shaoming and his party walked out of the airport through the green channel. After hurriedly saying goodbye to the reporters at the airport, the front page of Hong Kong Entertainment the next day was basically about Zhou Shaoming and Avril Lavigne!

Of course, the main members who came to Hong Kong for filming this time also included the two actors Bell and Murphy! Although Bell is slightly popular in the North American market, after coming to China, it was obvious that no one knew this Hollywood movie star!

People's focus is all on Zhou Shaoming and Avril Lavigne!

"The arrival of Director Smith Chow is undoubtedly a grand event in the Hong Kong entertainment industry. According to reliable news, Director Smith Chow will bring his new work to Hong Kong for filming. A movie with Hong Kong as the background will be filmed in Hong Kong.

Released at the North American Film Market. This really feels like a dream!" Hong Kong Entertainment News

However, when Zhou Shaoming came to Hong Kong for filming this time, he was more thoughtful in publicity and publicity. Before the news was released, the cast and crew were kept confidential!

When the press conference was held, the reporters came to the scene early!

To everyone's surprise, in addition to Zhou Shaoming and Avril Bell, the two reporters have met Avril Lavigne and Bell! Avril is a familiar face to the world!

However, the faces of the two leading actors, Avril Lavigne and Bell, were not enough. When Jackie Chan politely asked Zhou Shaoming to sit down, the reporters took a deep breath and looked at each other!

At this time, sitting at the press conference, three superstars suddenly appeared, which really made the reporters' eyes light up. Not only Jackie Chan, but also the powerful superstar Wu Jing, who recently successfully entered the North American market as the villain of "The Fuse", was present!

What’s more, no one could have guessed that he is one of Hong Kong’s Four Heavenly Kings, Andy Lau!
