Li Shiqi has already gone to school.
She attended a Hong Kong aristocratic girls' school, a typical British-style education school with boarding students.
I only go home on weekends.
The secretary sent by Li Guanhua was named Chen. In the following days, he diligently helped collect information about the films currently being prepared for filming in Hong Kong.
Because Li Shiqi went to school, all the information is now handed over to Xu Nanxing.
Li's reputation was quite impressive, and all the film materials were complete, and even some scripts were brought over.
Xu Nanxing read through them all. There were so many scripts that she felt a little dizzy. In the end, she only looked at the scripts for ancient costume kung fu films.
Well, because kung fu movies of this era were still in their golden age, it was reflected in the box office.
Among the top ten movies at the Hong Kong box office in recent years, at least four are kung fu films.
Therefore, in recent years, kung fu films have been filmed and released in large numbers.
The main thing about kung fu movies is that the leading actor fights with other people. There is no need for expensive costumes and props, and there is no need to build expensive buildings.
Saving money is the key!
The main reason is that the cost of movies in this era is still very low, and basically a movie can be made with just hundreds of thousands of dollars.
After all, the Hong Kong market is too small, and if the investment cost is too high, it may be difficult to recover the cost.
At that time, European and American films were still the dominant force. Hong Kong films had not yet gone international. Without the support of overseas box office, they could only reduce costs as much as possible.
So kung fu movies are really the first choice for investors.
The reason why this seemingly good kung fu film is still lacking investment is mainly because the male lead accidentally broke his leg while filming a fight scene not long ago, and the subsequent scenes cannot be filmed for the time being.
Now the creative team of the film faces two choices: either wait for a while until the male lead recovers from his injury before continuing filming.
However, it takes a hundred days to heal a broken bone, so every day of delay costs money, let alone 100 days.
Moreover, seeing that the Chinese New Year period was about to be missed, investors were getting a little anxious.
The second way is to change the male lead.
However, the scenes that have already been filmed will have to be re-shot with different actors, which will obviously increase the budget.
The investors obviously don't want to increase their investment. If the film hadn't already started shooting, they might have withdrawn their investment directly.
That's why Secretary Chen collected information about this movie, which has already started filming but is still seeking investment.
Many people think that this kind of film project, which obviously has big flaws, is unlucky and are unwilling to get involved.
Hong Kong is a very feudal and superstitious place. People don't want to get involved in any project that looks unlucky.
Anyway, there are so many movies being filmed in Hong Kong every year, so why not invest in any of them?
However, after reading the script of this movie, Xu Nanxing became interested. Anyway, she didn't expect to make money from the movie.
After all, she made a huge fortune a few days ago!
Even if I lose, it’s not a big deal!
Now making money is a small matter for her.
Her goal is to gain a firm foothold in the film industry and lay a solid foundation for becoming a leader in the entertainment and film and television industry in the future.
That’s right, Xu Nanxing wants to become a giant in the film and television industry!
Just like the current Shaw Brothers, and the future giants like Warner and Huayi!
Who made Xu Nanxing like watching movies and TV series since his previous life?
At that time, the film and television industry had been monopolized by several giant companies. Other new entrants were either acquired or on the margins, and it was extremely difficult to grab a seat!
Like many other industries, the upward channels are locked, and those below can only keep rolling inward to gain a chance of survival.
And now, Xu Nanxing has the opportunity to seize the initiative, how can she let it go?
The film and television industry mainly depends on talent!
Xu Nanxing’s first step was to go to the filming site to see the filming conditions of that era, especially the situation of the staff such as directors, screenwriters, cameramen, and lighting technicians.
That’s right, she just wants to poach people!
The filming location of the movie was in a park.
The park is designed in the style of a Chinese garden, with pavilions and wooden corridors.
The crew was filming inside the pavilion.
Secretary Chen, who had brought Xu Nanxing here, pointed to the crew filming an empty shot and said, "That's the film crew over there."
When Xu Nanxing arrived at the place, his first impression was that the place was shabby.
Looking at the simple interior settings and rough costumes in the studio, Xu Nanxing was speechless.
After watching so many costume dramas, fairy tales and fantasy dramas with exquisite costumes and props, this now looks like a scene of beggars. The contrast is too great.
Xu Nanxing now knows the existence of Hengdian Film and Television City in Hengdian. It will make filming costume TV dramas much easier!
Unfortunately, there is no trace of Hengdian Film and Television City now.
In a small place like Hong Kong, it is difficult to build a decent ancient building complex!
Secretary Chen came forward and contacted the director and his team. They had already contacted the director team before they came. When the other party heard that a boss wanted to come and take a look and was willing to invest, they warmly invited them on the spot.
When the director saw Secretary Chen, he thought she was the boss. Later he found out that the skinny girl was the investor.
The director was surprised for a moment, thinking that the other party was a young lady from a certain family who came to invest and practice, so he didn't think much about it.
The director enthusiastically introduced the film to Xu Nanxing.
