"Of course we will consider pushing Mr. Ye to the international market." He Guanchang said with a smile, "But this is not a matter of one sentence. We need to consider many factors, such as cost, opportunity, return, risk, etc. We will consider the various aspects and strive to push Mr. Ye to the international stage as soon as possible."

Hearing that he said, everyone nodded.

Ye Jin also smiled.

Although He Guanchang couldn't explain clearly, he still heard the key point, which was nothing more than a cost and a return.

The cost of pushing Hong Kong stars into the international market is naturally very high. Bruce Lee's "The Dragon and the Tiger Fight" invested 850,000 US dollars in funds alone, which does not count the labor cost.

Ye Jin had just joined Jiahe, but he had not made any achievements and had not brought any profit. In terms of rewards, Jiahe would not send him to the international market immediately.

However, this was also expected by Ye Jin. He did not expect that he would go to the Hollywood exhibition immediately as soon as he joined Jiahe. Jackie Chan made two big movies for Jiahe, "Junior Brother Takes the Journey" and "Young Master Dragon", which made Jiahe firmly believe and sent him to Hollywood.

Even with Jiahe's promotion, Jackie Chan's Hollywood journey was not smooth. He himself mentioned in an interview program that although he had already become famous in Southeast Asia with "Drunk Fist", "Laughing Fist Strategy", "Junior Brother Takes Horse", etc., he was still an unknown person in Hollywood.

As soon as the Hollywood summoned him, he immediately took a twelve-hour plane to Hollywood for an audition. After taking a few minutes to try the camera, he flew back on a twelve-hour plane.

...

The press conference was held for a total of 45 minutes.

After the reception, everyone returned to Jiahe.

"Mr. Ye, I have read the script of "The God of Fighting" and it is really well written." Zou Wenhuai smiled at Ye Jin, "I hope the filming can start as soon as possible. I wonder what you think?"

"I also hope to start filming as soon as possible." Ye Jin nodded, "But there is a question now, who will direct this drama."

Previously, the director of "The Gods Fight" was decided to be Wu Siyuan, but now the drama is led by Jiahe, and Wu Siyuan is just an investor. In this way, Wu Siyuan probably wouldn't come to work for Jiahe for a mere tens of thousands of director fees.

If Wu Siyuan doesn't come, he will have to change the director again. Jiahe's director, Ye Jin, has never worked with him before, and he doesn't know whether their temper, character, and whether they can get along with each other. And he doesn't know whether their abilities can direct a good kung fu comedy.

"The best director in our Jiahe now is Luo Wei." Zou Wenhuai smiled, "We can match Mr. Ye to cooperate with him."

When Ye Jin heard this, he waved his hand.

Although he had never worked with Luo Wei, he had heard of some things. He knew that the director had a very strong temper and was arbitrary.

When he became popular with Bruce Lee, he regarded himself as Bruce Lee's mentor and thought that Bruce Lee could only become famous with himself.

This naturally made Bruce Lee very unhappy, and the two even used the knife. Luo Wei also called the police and claimed that Bruce Lee wanted to kill him. He also said that if something happened to him, Bruce Lee would succeed. The matter also made headlines in the newspaper, causing an uproar in public opinion.

Therefore, when Bruce Lee filmed his third film "The Raptor Crossing the River", he dumped Luo Wei and became the director himself. "The Raptor Crossing the River" caused a sensation after its release, not only breaking the box office record in all Southeast Asia, but also successfully attracted the attention of international public opinion.

The fight scene between him and Chuck Norris at the Colosseum was rated as the most exciting fight scene in film history by Black Belt magazine. It was precisely because of this that Hollywood noticed Bruce Lee, so it invested with Jiahe to shoot "The Dragon and the Tiger".

Bruce Lee also achieved amazing achievements after leaving Luo Wei. In comparison, after leaving Bruce Lee, his performance was much worse than before. Judging from the movies he helped Jackie Chan shoot, Luo Wei's directorial skills are not very good.

Ye Jin doesn't want to work with such a director with a bad temper, good fortune and poor strength.

...

"Mr. Zou, my "Divine Fight" is a kung fu comedy. I hope to work with a director who is good at comedy to ensure the fun of this movie." Ye Jin suggested to Zou Wenhuai, "and I would like to ask Yuan Heping to help me check the action scenes. In this way, both literary and martial arts can be perfect."

After hearing what Ye Jin said, Zou Wenhuai, He Guanchang, Cai Yongchang and others nodded.

However, before "Seventy-Two Tenants" became popular, few directors in Xiangjiang made comedy films.

Because in the 1960s, as "One-Armed Knife" directed by Zhang Che-da became the first movie in Hong Kong to exceed one million Hong Kong dollars, kung fu films became the mainstream of Hong Kong movies.

The comedy films at that time were divided into two categories. One category was Cantonese comedy films, mainly composed of Zheng Junmian, Liang Xingbo, Xinma Shixin, etc., and representative works such as "The Real Man", "The Jade Girl Adds a Clan", "Seven Captures and Seven Seven Picks of Seven Perfect Wolfs", etc., mainly funny.

One type is Mandarin comedy films, mainly including Dianmao and Phoenix Film. This type of comedy film is a social comedy, mainly reflecting reality. Representative works such as "The Joy of Moving House", "The Plan of the Year", "Water and Fire", "The Bus Adventures and Familiar Familiarity", etc.

Cantonese comedy films withered with the decline of Cantonese films, and Mandarin comedy films also declined with the graduation of Dianmao. There were no decent comedy films in the Xiangjiang film industry afterwards.

The later comedy film ZTE was created by the romantic and funny movie directed by Li Hanxiang.

Such as "Fraud of Money and Sex", "Sound and Sex", "One Joy", "The Warlord", "Scandal", etc., they are both exaggerated and satirical, and they are also erotic and charming, and they have won a lot of box offices at once.

Because comedy films have declined since the mid-1960s, it has been nearly ten years since now. Therefore, it is not easy to find a director who is good at making comedy films.

"Oh, by the way, Zhu Mu followed Li Hanxiang to film movies such as "The Great Warlord", "One Joy", "Ghosts and Snakes" before. How about he directing it?" Cai Yongchang suddenly suggested.

"Director Ding Shanxi has also filmed comedy films like "Million Brides" and "The Stubborn Fighting Wind", and I think he might as well give it a try." He Guanchang also suggested.

"Mr. Ye, what are your opinions?" Zou Wenhuai asked Ye Jin.

"Let me do this, take the works of the two directors and I'll take a look at them." Ye Jin thought for a while and said, "I'll make a decision again."

Just by listening alone, you can’t understand it. It’s better to see it at first sight than to hear it. Whether it’s okay or not, you can see it clearly after reading the work.

"Okay." Zou Wenhuai nodded, "We will arrange it for you right away."

"By the way, Mr. Ye, the heroine of "The God of Fighting", can you consider using our Jiahe people?" He Guanchang asked.

Ye Jin's movies are so popular that even the supporting roles in them have become popular, such as Yuan Xiaoshi and Ren Shiguan, who have now become popular stars and have constant film appointments.

Lin Qingxia also became famous for her brief appearance in "Drunk Fist". So He Guanchang hopes that Ye Jin's new film will use more people from Jiahe. In this way, Jiahe will have more stars.

"Sorry, Mr. He, the heroine of "The God of Fight", I want to use my girlfriend Lin Qingxia. This "The God of Fight" is written specifically for her." Ye Jin smiled slightly and said, "Let's do this. When filming in the future, I will try my best to consider using Jiahe's actors."

"Okay." Everyone nodded.
