Looking at the beads of sweat on the other person's fair skin, Wu Changyun couldn't help but sigh: "This kind of daily life is really comfortable."
He admires all kinds of exquisite figures every day, and does it openly. Many female fans who come to him for unknown reasons are eager to get Wu Changyun's guidance every day and take the opportunity to create some intimate physical contact.
After the gym had been open for almost a month, Wu Changyun felt that the purpose of fitness had changed a bit, and many fans came just to meet him.
At the same time, "The Sixth Sense" was a huge hit during this period. After all, looking at Hong Kong decades later, ghost movies still wouldn't give the audience any deeper thinking, let alone any plot twists and shocks.
Audiences have a demand for horror films, and this film happened to be unprecedented, so many viewers watched it again after seeing it.
A month later, "The Sixth Sense" was taken off the screen with a box office of HK$2.3 million. Others didn't know about it, but Wu Changyun was naturally very clear that this year's box office champion in Hong Kong was "Ghosts and Stars" which was released at the end of the year. "The Sixth Sense" only had about one-third of the box office of "Ghosts and Stars", but it still ranked second this year.
Like Wu Changyun's previous work "New Warrior", "The Sixth Sense" has achieved quite good results overseas. It has been translated into more than a dozen languages and released in various countries, with the best results in Europe and the United States.
This is probably the first time in the history of Hong Kong films that a non-kung fu film has achieved the best results overseas.
Although the film did not reach the height that Wu Changyun had imagined, it successfully attracted the attention of some film companies on the other side of the ocean.
After this film, the person who benefited the most was Hu Yinmeng. She already had the ability to become a top star, and with the help of this film, she is now flooded with invitations to various trade shows, advertisements, and movies, and has become the most sought-after actress at the beginning of this year.
Wu Changyun received dividends from the box office. With this money, Wu Changyun didn't have to worry about the business he already had.
The current funds are enough for him to make a good film in Hong Kong, but the current Hong Kong market has not reached the level he expects.
Hong Kong audiences like kung fu movies, especially those with a light-hearted and humorous pace and that incorporate local Hong Kong customs.
Starting from 1974, Xu Guanwen has been making great strides with his works such as "Ghost in the Shell", "Eight of Two", and "The Genius and the Idiot". As long as Bruce Lee is not around, his name will almost be tied to the Hong Kong box office.
Wu Changyun is not the kind of person who dwells on trivial matters. Movies are fundamentally a business. Even if what you sell is good, the buyers may not approve of it.
Fushun had noticed that Wu Changyun had been acting abnormally for the past two days. At first, he thought that fitness was a good thing, but later, every time Wu Changyun came home, he looked like a great sage, which made Fushun really curious.
"What have you been doing at the gym these days? You seem to be obsessed with burning incense and praying to Buddha, looking like you have no desires or requests."
"The Hong Kong box office is too complex for me to fathom."
Fushun was so angry when he heard what Wu Changyun said that he slammed the table and cursed without saying a word: "You bastard, you are just taking advantage of others and you are so idle."
"With your experience, your first film grossed tens of millions, and your latest film has already sold over two million Hong Kong dollars. Why are you still not satisfied? Believe it or not, I'll stab you to death. It makes me angry just watching it."
"In a few years, some individuals will participate in real estate development. When the time comes, you can come and fight for your buddy." Wu Changyun's words were not speculation.
"How do you know? Any gossip?"
Fushun didn't believe that Wu Changyun was so amazing, but he couldn't suppress the excitement on his face.
Thanks to continued profits and income from the security company, the number of properties under his control has increased by nearly seventy. If this trend continues, he will soon have a real thousand properties under his control.
Wu Changyun rolled his eyes at him and said, "The secret of heaven cannot be revealed."
In fact, Wu Changyun not only knew it, but he even knew the exact year, month and day. This was also the reason why he used the only funds he had to invest in real estate from the beginning.
"Okay, if that day really comes, I will definitely make us two brothers proud." Fushun said with a happy smile.
He had long had the idea of going further, to start a simple rental business and hang out with those nouveau riche all day long. He was tired of this meaningless life.
"I will be away from Hong Kong for a while in the near future. You stay at home and take care of our business. If there is any situation with Chang Sihu, please contact me in time." Wu Changyun said casually.
"Oh, huh?! Where are you going from Hong Kong?"
"Canada."
Wu Changyun put down the drawing board in his hand. There was a messy plot line written on it. At the top, there were several names written prominently, namely "Saw", "Hostel" and "Wrong Turn".
On this trip, Wu Changyun plans to bring a group of people from Hong Kong, and then hire some foreign prop masters and makeup artists to help him shoot the new film.
