In the afternoon of the same day, Li Guangyu and Gan Qin went to the Jiayi Building, and as time passed, the decoration of a total of 10 movie theaters in Pengcheng and Shanghai had been completed.

In the past few months, more than a dozen Xiangjiang films have been released in the mainland, but the box office is really not very good, but it is a huge progress for the Xiangjiang film industry, and they have at least entered the mainland market.

As for why the box office is so low, one is the low ticket price, now the mainland according to the different theaters, the ticket price is the same, the low one is only one dime, the high is only five cents, the current mainland RMB exchange rate to the US dollar is about 3.72, that is, one US dollar can be exchanged for 3.72 yuan.

In this conversion, the current 1 RMB is equivalent to about 2.43 Hong Kong dollars, of course, this refers to the official exchange rate of the mainland, and now the mainland exchange rate is more responsible, Li Guangyu is too lazy to delve into it, all the RMB he earns in the mainland is used for the expansion of industries in the mainland and the wages of employees, and he has no intention of exchanging foreign exchange at all.

Now the ticket price of Xiangjiang is more than ten Hong Kong dollars, while the mainland is only a few cents, which is dozens of times worse, and the internal statistics of Xiangjiang Film Company are also difficult to query, so the box office is relatively low.

In the conference room of Jiayi Group, Tang Zaichuan, president of the group, and the senior management of the group were already sitting inside, waiting for the arrival of Li Guangyu and Gan Qin.

From vice president of Heung Kong Communications Group to president of Jiayi Group, Tang Zaiyu is already familiar with the affairs of the group, as the world's top media group, the situation within Jiayi is more complicated than he imagined.

Among them are Liu Tianci, the former president of the group and demoted to vice president in charge of the group's American affairs, Ye Jiexin, the executive vice president who has been developing from the TV station, and Zhou Yuanyuan, the current vice president of the group, who has worked in the administrative department of the factory since Li Guangyu just took over the garment factory.

This has a very good relationship with Gan Qin, Qin Jiao, Guo Qingya, Bai Jiangting, He Mengting, Zhao Xiaoyan and other high-level officials.

Yan Qiuling, general manager of the group's administration department, came out of the assistant office, and her background is also not shallow.

He himself came from the communication group, and he did not have any team in the Jiayi Group, but fortunately, the senior management of the group cooperated with his work, so that the group could develop steadily and well, and he wanted to fully control the Jiayi Group It was not possible to do it for a while.

Li Guangyu said after taking his seat: "Although the current box office in the mainland market is not very ideal, but we can't ignore that side, at present, our own 10 theaters have been renovated, and they will be officially opened next month, I believe that with the support of our own theater chain, we will get better and better at the box office in the mainland." ”

Tang Zaichuan responded: "Li Sheng, we will increase the number of our films in the mainland, expand the influence of our Jiayi Film Company in the mainland, and at the same time promote our artists to the mainland and expand their influence in the mainland. ”

Tang Zaichuan knows very well what the problem of the poor box office in the mainland is, the low box office over there is not a low ticket price, but it is not easy to say on their side, and he also understands why Li Guangyu insists on building his own theater, even if the theater will pay 25% of the tax on the ticket price, he must own the theater chain himself.

Even if they only occupy the markets of Pengcheng and Shanghai, he believes that the market of these two cities will be larger than Xiangjiang in the future, even if the ticket price is not as high as Xiangjiang, the number of moviegoers in the two places together will definitely be more than Xiangjiang.

And they are still working hard, as long as the theater is put into use this time to have a good effect on the local economy, they will be able to enter more areas.

In particular, the Li consortium has a good relationship with the local cities, such as Ludao, Shuangqing, Qindao, etc., these are all great opportunities.

They have already crossed the most difficult step, and it will be relatively easy to expand in the future.

Li Guangyu asked: "How is the movie you are preparing, can it be released on August 1 as scheduled?"

This time, this movie was carefully created by Jiayi Film Company, adapted from Jin Yong's Xiaoao Jianghu, and the movie was called Xiaoao Jianghu's Undefeated East.

Li Guangyu watched the movie of the same name in his previous life, and he only remembered Lin Qingxia's Undefeated East, and he didn't remember the rest.

This time, Jiayi still let Lin Qingxia play the undefeated Dongfang, with group artist Qiu Shuzhen as the little junior sister, Wen Bixia as Ren Yingying, and Yuan Jieying as the blue phoenix.

Its director is led by Zhang Che, the general manager of Changhe Film Company, and the well-known director of Xiangjiang, and is co-adapted by many well-known screenwriters of Jiayi Group.

Zhou Yuanyuan, vice president of the group, responded: "Li Sheng, the mainland is still reviewing the film, and it is expected to be passed next week, and on August 1, our film can be released in Xiangjiang, Baodao, the mainland, Southeast Asia and South Korea as scheduled, and we are still increasing public relations efforts in Japan to make this film be released simultaneously in Japan as much as possible." ”

At present, Japan has a limit on the number of 10 Xiangjiang films, so if it is difficult to enter the Japanese theater, Jiayi Group also needs to communicate with the Japanese Ministry of Culture.

For the Japanese market, Li Guangyu does not have much to do now, and now he only hopes to accelerate the development of the mainland market, and with the support of the huge mainland market, Xiangjiang Films will not decline.

Li Guangyu said: "Japan try to find a way, for the mainland, we also have to find a way to expand their own influence, such as holding concerts in the mainland, we don't care about whether we can make a profit now, now we mainly put the fame of our artists into the mainland, as long as there is fame, there will naturally be profits in the future, you have to do a good job in this area of planning, such as Huacheng, Shanghai, Qindao, Jiangcheng, Rongcheng, Shuangqing, Yongcheng, Ludao and other places." ”

Now it is impossible to make much money by holding large-scale concerts in the mainland, but Li Guangyu is planning for the future, and only with fame will he earn back a few endorsements in the future.

Zhou Yuanyuan responded: "Li Sheng, I will make plans in this regard in the future, communicate with the mainland, and strive to hold a star concert of Jiayi Group in Huacheng next month, so that some of our artists can accumulate popularity in Huacheng." ”

Li Guangyu thought for a while and said: "This time, let's change it, go to Huacheng to hold the Jiayi Group Stars Charity Concert, and all the ticket proceeds will be donated to the Guangdong Provincial Government, which is mainly used to fund poor students." ”

Anyway, there are not many tickets, Li Guangyu simply does it to the end, so that not only Jiayi Group has a good reputation, but these artists will also have a good impression.

As for these artists, since it is a charity concert, it is naturally voluntary, and the group will only give them living, transportation, and accommodation expenses, and there is no appearance fee to take.

However, every time there is such an event on the side of Jiayi Group, the vast majority of artists will apply, because Jiayi Group has a preference in this regard when choosing the main and supporting roles in film and television, and those who voluntarily participate will not suffer, and the endorsement contracts of other groups will make up for them.

Zhou Yuanyuan naturally has no opinion on this, anyway, it is very difficult to make a profit in the mainland at present, so after these people make a name for themselves, the album can still sell well in the mainland.
