Chapter 87: Justice Bao The two children were whispering to each other and soon became familiar with each other. They had no idea that their every move was being watched by the four adults. "I told you! They're just kids! They develop feelings for each other as they fight." Liu Hongmin smiled. He was like this when he was a child. The saying "No fight, no acquaintance" is more suitable for describing children. "Brother Xiaoming, has Justice Bao been aired?" "It's broadcast!" When talking about Justice Bao, Xu Xiaoming smiled from ear to ear, "The ratings are very good, better than Justice Bao." He Jiajin also said: "Before a single episode was aired, Brother Chao Qun had already become a star, and many viewers liked him very much. These days, many viewers blocked the entrance of RTV, wanting to ask Brother Chao Qun for an autograph, but Brother Chao Qun walked right past them, and they didn't even recognize him." Wu Bin asked curiously, "Why is that?" He Jiajin explained with a smile: "Brother Chaoqun plays the villain in the play, but plays the white face outside the play. The contrast is huge. The audience has only seen him with the villain face, but never with the white face."
Xu Xiaoming took out a book from his briefcase and placed it on the table. He pointed at Jin Chaoqun and the character Bao Gong he played on the cover and asked, "Can you tell they are the same person?" Wu Bin leaned over to take a look. "It's still visible, but if you don't look carefully, it's hard to recognize." "You can't recognize it, and the audience can't recognize it either." Liu Hongmin smiled and changed the subject. This was an anecdote for Jin Chaoqun, but for Wu Bin, it was not even gossip. "How are the results at Sanlian and Ming Pao?" "Not bad!" Xu Xiaoming handed the book to Liu Hongmin, "Sanlian asked me to bring this to you. Take a look at it." Liu Hongmin flipped through it and asked, "Is this the only version?" "There is only this one version. Sanlian didn't publish the regular version because they were afraid that the results would not be good, so they only printed the illustrated version." "This is also a trick." Liu Hongmin put the book down. "With the broadcast of Justice Bao, the sales of this book are very good. So far, it is better than that of Justice Bao." Liu Hongmin became interested. "Really? I didn't expect there would be such a pleasant surprise." "It is indeed a pleasant surprise!" Xu Xiaoming explained: "It can only be said that the TV series "Justice Bao" is very popular, and many people regard this book as a peripheral of the TV series. Anyone who has some money will buy a copy as a souvenir." "I see!" Liu Hongmin suddenly realized that it was easier to make money from fan circles, and that it was more profitable to sell peripheral products than to sell content. He Jiajin: "I also bought a copy and kept it at home." Wu Bin was a little confused. This book was so fancy, what was there to collect? Liu Hongmin: "How are the sales of Ming Pao?" "It's better to give less." Xu Xiaoming said, "This cooperation will benefit both us and Sanlian. If Justice Bao can be broadcast and sold on Green Island, we can make at least tens of millions this time." Wu Bin was stunned. Tens of millions? That much? "It shouldn't be a big problem!" He Jiajin said, "Brother Chaoqun said that Brother Qiang has already negotiated with Green Island, but the broadcast time has not been decided yet." Liu Hongmin nodded, "That's good. Green Island's market is so big, if we can conquer it, it will be very beneficial to our cooperation."
Xu Xiaoming also said: "Yes, if our movie can also be shown in Green Island, the box office can at least increase by several million." Liu Hongmin spread his hands and said, "This is a bit embarrassing. Green Island will not let me make this money." Xu Xiaoming was helpless, "It's a pity to give up the Green Island market." "It's not that we gave up, but they refused to open up to us!" Liu Hongmin corrected Xu Xiaoming. "We don't have the final say on this matter. Let's wait a few more years! When cross-strait relations ease, both movies and TV series should be able to be released." "How long do we have to wait?" Liu Hongmin didn't want to talk about Green Island. He couldn't defect to the enemy just to get his movie shown on Green Island, could he? Xu Xiaoming was just grumbling. He just felt that it was a pity to give up the Green Island market. As he owned shares in Tomorrow Films, he already considered himself the owner, so he wanted to make more money. Wu Bin didn't understand what they were talking about, so he turned around and looked at the two kids who were still chatting. The two kids were already discussing martial arts, gesticulating and showing off, and there was no trace of the tension they had before. Fan Shaohuang is asking Wu Jing for advice. Although he is not satisfied with Wu Jing's comment that he is an amateur, he still admires Wu Jing. He is one year older than Wu Jing, but his skills are not as good as Wu Jing's, which makes Fan Shaohuang feel ashamed. Knowing the shame, Fan Shaohuang decides to practice martial arts diligently to catch up with Wu Jing and surpass him. Although Wu Jing taught him everything he knew, he was showing off. His smug look made Wu Bin feel annoyed. At night, Wu Bin left Wu Jing in the courtyard. Liu Hongmin asked him to live with Fan Shaohuang to increase their relationship. But when he heard the noise in their room in the middle of the night, Liu Hongmin regretted it. The next day, Wu Jing's father came to the courtyard. He would join the crew as a martial arts instructor and take care of Wu Jing. Beijing Film Studio dispatched several vehicles and took the entire crew to Jingtai Temple in the west of Beijing. Jingtai Temple is a cultural relic protection unit. Since last year, it has been undergoing a large-scale renovation, and more than half of the renovation has been completed. The renovated scenery is very suitable for filming. They think that filming can attract tourists from Hong Kong, so they approved the filming permit. The filming of "The Young Master" in Beijing was not very extensive, as the main focus was on training the twin stars and getting them familiar with the camera. This was Wu Jing's first time shooting a movie, and Fan Shaohuang's second time, but he still couldn't remember the first time he shot a movie. On the contrary, Wu Jing performed the important martial arts scenes very beautifully, even when he was hanging on wires, he performed very well. It was the first time for the Beijing Film Studio to see how Hong Kong films were shot, and it was an eye-opener. They learned a lot of new techniques, including wire-aerial techniques. But the people in Hong Kong didn't want to teach them, so they only learned the basics. "This is really eye-opening!" Lin Yong exclaimed, "It is said that Hong Kong's entertainment industry is well developed, but I didn't expect it to be so well developed. Not to mention the filming techniques, their filming technology is enough for us to learn for a long time." Liu Hongmin smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. We will cooperate often in the future. You can just learn and catch up." “I’m just afraid they won’t teach me!” "Then find a few smart people, learn from them first, and then study them." Lin Yong nodded, kept this in mind, and decided to look for candidates after returning. Beijing Film Studio doesn't have much else, but it has a lot of talent. (End of this chapter)
