Chapter 130: The Shaw Clan's Dilemma

"Mr. Qiao, can you ask why you want to show this film at our Shaw Brothers?"

Qiao Feng went to the Shaw Brothers to find Shao Yifu, and got the exact opposite treatment to Jiahe, as soon as he said it, Shao Yifu didn't stumble and agreed directly, and only after agreeing did Shao Yifu smile and ask the question in his heart.

"According to Mr. Qiao's habit, he always cooperates with our Shaw Brothers and then with Golden Harvest, and then cooperates with our Shaw Brothers, why did you make an exception this time, Mr. Zombie won't say it, you have already cooperated with our Shaw Brothers before you go to the mainland, and you are still filming it, why is the film shot in the mainland also being released in our Shaw Brothers?"

"Hehe, it's nothing, like Mr. Zombie, Golden Harvest doesn't give schedules, so I can only find Mr. Shao to cooperate with you." Qiao Feng is not afraid to explain to Shao Yifu.

He couldn't hide the fact that he was rejected by Jiahe, and he could know it with a little inquiry, and he was not afraid of what would happen to Shao Yifu if he found out.

When will the movie be released? Or take advantage of the fire to rob and sit on the ground to negotiate the conditions?

This should be put in Jiahe Qiao Feng may be worried, because Jiahe does not worry about the source of the film, and does not worry about the lack of a good source, just like He Guanchang said, the family is big, and there are so many satellite companies below, so the soup is always drunk.

If Golden Harvest encounters this situation, maybe, or will definitely take advantage of the fire to rob, take the opportunity to get a better share ratio, etc., otherwise they will card you on the film schedule.

But Shaw Brothers doesn't have this confidence, if there is no Qiao Feng's film in the past two years, Shaw Brothers, the first giant in the Hong Kong film industry in the 60s and early 70s, doesn't even have a minimum fig leaf.

Shaw Brothers now except for Qiao Feng's films, as well as a few one or two films, other films produced by Shaw Brothers are all filmed and lost one, and it is not okay not to shoot, because the theater is empty there, you don't make films, you are self-sufficient and have no other film source, that is, waiting for the theater to die and lose money.

Therefore, the situation of Shaw Brothers is that it loses money when making films, but it can lose a little less.

Gou Yan is talking about the current Shaw Brothers.

Such a Shaw Brothers is not qualified to refuse Qiao Feng's film at all, unless Shao Yifu said that I just don't make money and don't want to schedule films for you, then Qiao Feng has nothing to say.

But Shao Yifu will not do things that harm others and himself.

Fast pistol, fast gunner, Shao Yifu didn't invest a penny in this film, but the share ratio he gave was calculated according to the share ratio of Shaw Brothers Investment, that is, five to five, half of the box office of the theater chain, and Qiao Feng, the investor, shared the other half.

didn't ask for any distribution share, and didn't even ask for publicity costs, but it was just to broadcast a preview on the TV station, and it didn't cost much, much less than making money from it, so it was rare for Shao Yifu to be generous.

"The fast pistols and fast gunners were released on July 1st, a week earlier than Golden Harvest's clever trick Five Lucky Stars, and then the true colors of the heroes were released on August 1st, so that they could be caught back and forth, and Jiahe would be kept planting a big heel." Qiao Feng told Shao Yifu about his plan.

"In this way, Mr. Qiao's film will occupy our entire summer vacation file of Shaw Brothers." Shao Yifu hesitated.

The schedule of one film and the schedule of two films are not the same concept at all, there are only a few best schedules in a year, the best Spring Festival schedule at the beginning of the year is Qiao Feng's, and now even the summer schedule is given to Qiao Feng, so that the directors of Shaw Brothers will make trouble if they can't arrange a good schedule.

"Mr. Shao, with all due respect, in terms of the quality of the movies you Shaw Brothers are producing now, arranging summer files for them is completely your Shaw Brothers giving money to Jiahe and Princess Jin.

Qiao Feng felt that what he said was too straightforward and hurt Shao Yifu's face too much, so he paused and said: " Mr. Shao, if there were any other films, I wouldn't compete for the second half of the summer schedule, but this film is a hero, so I have to fight. You must know that the box office expectation for this film is much higher than the fast pistol fast gunner in my hand.

"Really?" Shao Yifu's eyes lit up.

The true character of the hero Qiao Feng even invested 1 million Hong Kong dollars in the script, accounting for 20% of the total box office, and Qiao Feng originally wanted 20% of the total box office for a script, but Fang Yihua did not agree to invest another 1 million.

At that time, it was strange why Qiao Feng dared to ask for such a high share ratio, although he said that the box office would be very high, and he might get a new box office record.

It wasn't until now that he heard from Qiao Feng's mouth his box office expectations of the hero's true colors, and Shao Yifu knew why.

And Qiao Feng thought that the box office of his own films was predicted to be lower, according to this law, that is to say, the local box office of the hero's true colors is likely to be more than 30 million.

"Really." Qiao Feng nodded affirmatively.

"Alright then, let's set the time Mr. Qiao said." Shao Yifu no longer hesitated, agreed, paused and said with a smile: "When the old man wants to see the miserable beating of the film that he pushed away, Zou Wenhuai, what kind of face will He Guanchang have?"

Shao Yifu was full of resentment when he said this, Qiao Feng thought to himself, Shao Yifu must have remembered Li Xiaolong and Xu Guanwen, two people who were not valued by him, when they arrived at Jiahe, and beat his Shaw family very badly.

"I want to see it too." Qiao Feng smiled and agreed.

"By the way, I haven't congratulated Mr. Qiao on the box office success of the movie invested in the United States.After investing seven or eight million dollars and getting more than $40 million at the box office, Mr. Qiao has made a lot of money.Oh, it hasn't been released overseas, and after the overseas release, you can make a lot of money.If there is such a good opportunity in the future, Mr. Qiao, don't forget to bring us Shaw Brothers."

"Definitely, definitely." Qiao Feng nodded with a smile.

...............

This time I came to Shao Yifu, Qiao Feng not only negotiated the release of the film, but also took away his share of the profits from Mr. Zombie's release in Nanyang and other places.
