Chapter 465: Tianbao
When Chen Hao came to Xiangjiang, it was already evening, and Jiang Zhiqiang and Zhou Runfa came to pick up the plane together.
This Martian is the first cooperation between Chen Hao and Jiang Zhiqiang, and as the head of Haotian Holdings, the overlord of mainland entertainment, Chen Hao is also worthy of Jiang Zhiqiang.
As for Fargo, as the leading actor and host, and looking forward to the North American release of The Martian, he will naturally come.
"Mr. Chen, I've finally waited for you. Jiang Zhiqiang said with a smile.
"Trouble Mr. Jiang came in person. Chen Hao said with a smile.
"Yes, I'm looking forward to working together. Jiang Zhiqiang said with a smile.
"Director Chen, I'm waiting for you, let's go to dinner first and wash the dust for you. Zhou Runfa said with a smile.
"Well, I happened to be a little hungry too. Chen Hao nodded with a smile.
Chen Hao only brought Xiaoying and two bodyguards to Xiangjiang this time, here in Xiangjiang, there are bodyguards, be safe!
Soon, Chen Hao and his entourage came to the Four Seasons Hotel.
After Chen Hao entered the private room, he found that there were other people inside, and he also knew him, Xu Ke.
In addition, Zou Wenhuai is actually there! How could this Xiangjiang entertainment tycoon who single-handedly founded Jiahe be here?
What makes Chen Hao even more strange is that there is another person, who is actually Tianbao!
How did she get in?
"Please sit down first, Director Chen, Secretary Zhao. Zhou Yunfa greeted.
Chen Hao sat down with a smile, but he was arranged to sit between Zou Wenhuai and Tianbao!
"Mr. Chen is good!" Tianbao saw Chen Hao sitting beside him, and said hello a little nervously.
Chen Hao nodded with a smile when he heard this, and then looked at Zou Wenhuai, "Hello Mr. Zou, I didn't expect to see you today." ”
"Mr. Chen is a talent, I have heard of the name a long time ago. Zou Wenhuai said with a smile.
It seems that Chen has always known Mr. Zou. Jiang Zhiqiang said with a smile.
"Do you know it, Jiahe is a good memory for countless young people in the mainland!" Chen Hao said with a smile.
"Hahaha......"
Everyone laughed when they heard this, although Zou Wenhuai also laughed, but there was no doubt that there was more silence.
Chen Hao can understand after thinking about it, now that the decline of the Xiangjiang film market is getting faster and faster, many filmmakers from Xiangjiang Treasure Island have gone north, and it is an unstoppable fact that the center of gravity of the film industry has shifted northward.
Because of the financial turmoil in 97, Xiangjiang Films continued to be in a downturn, coupled with the impact of emerging companies such as Yinghuang, Jiahe's days were quite passive.
With the death of the second leader He Guanchang and the loss of many backbones, Jiahe has been unsustainable, so as early as 2002, Jiahe announced that it would stop production.
In the past two years, although I have also financed and invested in films such as Initial D and New Police Story, I have borrowed chickens and eggs, and I no longer make films by myself, but more to participate in investment and theater management and operation!
In addition, Zou Wenhuai is old, and he no longer has the vigorous energy and ambition of his youth, and more importantly, there is no successor.
Although her daughter is majoring in film, under her leadership, Jiahe's market value has shrunk faster, and the two sons have their own careers, and they are not optimistic about the film industry, Zou Wenhuai really has no successor!
And Jiahe almost went bankrupt in 2004, if it weren't for Zou Wenhuai's old friend Li Jiacheng to support him, it would be difficult to say whether Jiahe still exists now.
"The Martian has been released in Xiangjiang, Baodao and even Southeast Asia, and Mr. Zou has made great efforts. Jiang Zhiqiang said.
Chen Hao smiled when he heard this, "That's really thanks to Mr. Zou." ”
Although Jiahe is no longer good at production, it still has 140 films in its library and has a film distribution network throughout East and Southeast Asia.
Just this year, the first flagship cinema in the mainland of Jiahe was officially unveiled in Pengcheng, and it also acquired Warner Weixiu, the largest cinema company in Baodao.
"Alas, the film is so good, we are mutually beneficial, and we should cooperate more in the future. Wrinkle smiled and waved his hand.
"Director Xu, Chen always knows each other. Zhou Runfa said with a smile.
Because Xu Ke still went to the mainland premiere of The Martian, he must have known Chen Hao.
"Director Xu, I've admired the name for a long time, hahaha......" Chen Hao said with a smile.
"Director Chen, this is a loss to me, my seven swords were suppressed too badly by your Martian. Xu Ke shook his head.
"Hahaha......"
In fact, Seven Swords is not so miserable, 4 weeks after its release, the box office has broken 74 million yuan, and it is currently only ranked third in the annual box office list in the mainland after The Martian and Star Wars Prequel 3!
"There is also this, Yang Tianbao, is a female artist of the new generation in Xiangjiang. Zhou Yunfa said.
"Mr. Chen is good!" Yang Tianbao saw Chen Hao coming over, and hurriedly greeted with a smile.
Chen Hao looked at the green and tender Tianbao in front of him, remembered the dewy relationship between the two in their previous life and smiled slightly, he didn't expect to meet earlier in this life, "Hello!"
Xiao Ying, who had been sitting on the side pretending to be an ostrich, looked at this beautiful girl named Tianbao with fierce eyes, and couldn't help muttering, "The rotten capitalist world!"
"Okay, let's toast Mr. Chen first, and wish the movie a big hit at the box office!" Zhou Yunfa raised his glass.
"A box office hit!"
The dishes have gone through three rounds, and the wine has passed five flavors!
Everyone has been respecting Chen Hao, and Chen Hao is not easy to refuse, but he has drunk a lot.
Zou Wenhuai suddenly approached Chen Hao and said, "I don't know what Mr. Chen thinks of Jiahe?"
Chen Hao raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and paused, "Jiahe is an old film company, and it is famous in the mainland. ”
Zou Wenhuai sighed when he heard this, shook his head and said, "That was before, and the current Jiahe is no longer good." ”
Chen Hao just nodded when he heard this, but did not speak.
Zou Wenhuai said again, "Actually, I have been semi-retired in recent years, and now I am really old and want to retire, but I don't want to watch Jiahe follow me into the grave." ”
Chen Hao's heart moved when he heard this, is this to be a pick-up man himself?
"I wonder if Mr. Chen is interested in Jiahe?" Zou Wenhuai looked at Chen Hao and asked.
Zou Wenhuai's retirement in the past few years is not big news in Xiangjiang, and it is well known that Jiahe is living in embarrassment, so when Chengtian acquires Jiahe later.
Although the mainland was shocked, Xiangjiang was relatively much calmer, because everyone knew the future of Jiahe for a long time.
Now in Xiangjiang, everyone's life is not good, and Jiahe is now unpopular if he wants to sell, so I don't know what the reason is, I aim at Chen Hao!
Chen Hao heard this, but his mind changed sharply, Jiahe's production ability has disappeared, and the middle power is almost gone, and the only thing that is really valuable is the theater chain, and there is a shell of a listed company!
As for the fame that Jiahe has accumulated for decades, there is no substantial benefit!
The incident happened suddenly, Chen Hao really didn't think about it, so he had to shirk it and said, "It's not a trivial matter, I have to think about it." ”
"Of course, you can contact me if you are interested. Zou Wenhuai said with a smile.
Subsequently, everyone began to pour wine on Chen Hao again, and only after Chen Hao was drunk did Zou Wenhuai smile and said to Tianbao, "Mr. Chen is drunk, help him go to the room to rest, Tianbao, you have to take care of Mr. Chen!"
"I, I understand!" Tianbao hurriedly picked up Chen Hao and walked out.
Xiao Ying on the side wanted to come over to help, Zou Wenhuai said with a smile, "Secretary Zhao, we also arranged a room for you, right next door to Mr. Chen." ”
Xiao Ying smiled, and then insisted on coming over to help Chen Hao, but she didn't want to be pushed away by Chen Hao, and even Xiao Ying saw Chen Hao glaring at her.
Then Xiao Ying stood stupidly and watched Chen Hao being helped away by Tianbao, and finally stomped her little foot, "This bastard will die on a woman's belly sooner or later!"
