Chapter 2184 want to go for a break

"Morning, brother, come out for morning tea. Congratulations, the box office of "Ghost Blowing Out the Lamp" reached 17 million in two days. It's really amazing."

Sammo Hung took Yuan Biao and other brothers from the Hong family class out to have morning tea. When he entered the teahouse, many people took the initiative to say hello to him.

The box office performance of "Ghost Blowing Out the Lantern" can be said to be outstanding among the four movies released during the Spring Festival. It took in a box office of 17 million in two days, which is really enviable to others.

And because the box office performance in Xiangjiang is booming, when it is sold out, the revenue will naturally be much higher than that of ordinary movies.

However, Sammo Hung, Yuen Biao and others only received salary from the film and did not share in the box office revenue, so the subsequent income of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" has nothing to do with them.

"This is also a thank you to everyone for supporting me. I wish you all good luck."

Sammo Hung clasped his fists while greeting the people around him, and then a group of people went up to the box on the second floor.

It stands to reason that Sammo Hung should be very happy that "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" has such outstanding results, but in fact Sammo Hung is not happy at all.

Because in his opinion, even if the box office of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" exceeds 100 million, it is only over 10 million US dollars.

But the box office results of a film shot in Hollywood are dozens of times higher than those in Hong Kong.

Even if it is just an ordinary movie, as long as it takes 20 to 30 million at the box office, it will be many times more than what it is here in Hong Kong.

So he has always thought about working hard in Hollywood with Yuan Biao, and it is unlikely that he will achieve much development if he continues to stay in Hong Kong.

"Senior Brother, even if Mr. Lin lets us go to Hollywood, if he doesn't give us a script, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to perform well there."

Yuan Biao has figured it out over the past few years. Even if Lin Daoqiu really agrees to let them develop in Hollywood, without the script written by Lin Daoqiu, it is basically impossible to get ahead there.

Not to mention that the two of them haven't even learned English yet. What kind of drama can they play there? At most, they can only be supporting roles or villains, which Yuan Biao doesn't want to do.

"Then what do you think we should do? Do we just want to stay here in Hong Kong for the rest of our lives? Aaron can make a name for himself in Hollywood, but can't we?"

The biggest incentive for Sammo Hung is that Jackie Chan has already established a firm foothold in Hollywood.

Although he is not yet a huge star, outsiders have now added an international superstar to his title.

Sammo Hung believed that he and Yuen Biao were no worse than Jackie Chan, so he also wanted to give it a try. As long as he could ask Lin Daoqiu to write a script for them, Sammo Hung believed that they could establish a foothold in Hollywood like Jackie Chan.

"Brother, you have to speak English when filming in Hollywood. How old are you and me? It's probably too late to learn it now. Aaron also worked hard to be where he is now.

I think it might be difficult for us..."

Although Yuan Biao is not the kind of person who likes to give up on himself, he feels that people should face reality.

Moreover, he is already married and has children. Yuan Biao does not want to be too far away from his wife and children. He just wants to spend time with his family now.

For Yuen Biao, staying in Hong Kong and filming movies can not only make money, but also take care of his family, so the idea of ​​​​developing in Hollywood has weakened a lot compared to before.

"Forget it, I know you are a family-oriented person, let me think about it."

Sammo Hung shook his head. He knew Yuan Biao, his junior brother who grew up with him, very well.

If it was before Yuan Biao got married and had children, he would still have a lot of thoughts about Hollywood, but times have changed and he has married a wife and had children, and he is no longer the young junior who could do whatever he wanted.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door suddenly.

When the door opened, Sammo Hung, Yuan Biao and others discovered that it was Fang Jinsheng who came.

When they saw Fang Jinsheng, Sammo Hung and the others thought that Lin Daoqiu had also come to drink tea.

"Assistant Fang, congratulations on getting rich. Is Mr. Lin here too? We'll go over and say hello to him."

Just when Sammo Hung and Yuan Biao were about to pay New Year greetings to Lin Daoqiu, Fang Jinsheng quickly explained to them.

"No, no, I just finished drinking tea with my family, and I heard that Brother Hong and Brother Biao were also drinking tea here, so I came here to wish you a happy New Year."

I heard that Fang Jinsheng came with his family, which meant that Lin Daoqiu was not here.

"Assistant Fang, if you have nothing to do, why don't we have a cup of tea together? It's been a long time since we all got together."

Speaking of which, Sammo Hung, Yuen Biao and Fang Jinsheng have known each other for a long time, but they usually don't have the opportunity to get together.

After all, Fang Jinsheng has always been by Lin Daoqiu's side and has almost no holidays of his own. Even if he wanted to meet with him, it would be difficult to find a chance.

Fang Jinsheng didn't think much about it. Since Sammo Hung and Yuan Biao invited him to have a cup of tea together, he naturally wouldn't refuse.

After inviting Fang Jinsheng to sit down, Sammo Hung suddenly had an idea.

He did not dare to ask Lin Daoqiu directly, but he could test Lin Daoqiu's attitude through Fang Jinsheng to see whether he supported or did not support his development in Hollywood.

"Speaking of which, I really want to congratulate you. The movie "Ghost Blows Out the Lamp" took in a box office of 17 million in just two days. If the trend continues like this, I believe the box office will exceed 80 million.

Not a problem.”

There are only two movies in Hong Kong that have exceeded 100 million yuan, "Godzilla" and "1992". Apart from these two movies, no other single movie has achieved box office results of more than 100 million yuan. "Havoc in Heaven"

Although it has exceeded 100 million, it has been divided into several parts.

"Assistant Fang, we have known each other for such a long time. I have something to ask you here. I hope Assistant Fang can give me some advice."

Sammo Hung finally found this opportunity. If he didn't take this opportunity to test it out, he might not even be able to sleep well when he goes back tonight.

Although Fang Jinsheng didn't know what Sammo Hung wanted to ask him, he still smiled and nodded and agreed.

If it involves some secrets related to Lin Daoqiu, then Fang Jinsheng will naturally not reveal even a word.

"Actually, it's like this. A Biao and I have been developing in Xiangjiang for so many years. We both feel that after so many years of filming, we have already achieved all the results we can get. We want to try another runway. Assistant Fang thinks it is feasible.

?”

After hearing Sammo Hung's question, Fang Jinsheng immediately realized that the other party might want to bring up old matters again.

He knew that Sammo Hung had always wanted to try his luck in Hollywood.

However, in Fang Jinsheng's impression, Lin Daoqiu did not seem to want Sammo Hung and Yuen Biao to develop in Hollywood, but rather wanted them to stay in Hong Kong.
