1905 movie network news Recently, according to Hong Kong media reports, Louis Koo, as the president of the Artists Association, will jointly invest HK$ 3 million in 10 film and television companies including Emperor, Shaw and Universal Asia, and also grant another HK$ 9 million to the Film Development Fund, totaling HK$ 39 million (about RMB 36 million). The money will be used to start anti-epidemic films and raise money for grassroots film workers.
According to the report, the film will be directed by Gu Dezhao, who once wrote the film and co-produced it with Stephen Chow. In addition, director Guo Zijian and director Hing-Ka Chan will also join the co-director.
The film will be filmed in a short time, and all the actors participating in it will be benefit performances. At present, Chilam and Zhang Jicong have confirmed their performances, and the remuneration of the actors will also be donated to the grassroots, with a maximum of HK$ 9,000 per person.
Huang Baiming, the owner of Oriental Film, confirmed this when interviewed by the media. He said: "Our 10 companies are jointly shooting, and the money is donated to the Artists Association, which will handle it and send it to the grassroots film workers. Louis Koo will be responsible for the donation, and the list of actors will be announced soon."
In this regard, Louis Koo also said: "Thanks to the kind-hearted people who have donated money in this support program, and everyone who has contributed. Through this action, the whole industry in Qi Xin will work together to support each other, hoping that donations can help those in need in the industry to solve their urgent needs. In the next days, everyone should continue to support each other, persist together, and spend this adversity together. "
It is reported that Louis Koo has been engaged in low-key charity for many years, which has been unanimously recognized by both inside and outside the industry. Its "Louis Koo Foundation" is committed to funding the construction of Hope Primary School. By 2019, 104 schools have been built.
In February this year, Louis Koo also donated 1.3 million masks through the Foundation to help people tide over the epidemic smoothly. Being called a "low-key philanthropist" by fans deserves it.
