Chapter 33 The opening of Jiayi Cinema Line
Then the Xu brothers, Sammo Hung brothers arrived one after another, and Zheng Yuling, Ouyang Peishan, and other stars on Jiayi's side also came.
The senior executives of Li Guangyu's various companies came to the Lisheng Cinema to support the opening of the theater chain.
At half past seven, Li Guangyu's motorcade came to the outside of the Lisheng Theater, and as soon as Li Guangyu's car stopped, reporters from all walks of life surrounded him. After Li Guangyu's bodyguards got out of the car and separated the reporters with their bodies, Li Guangyu got out of the car to be interviewed by reporters.
Xiangyu Daily, as Li Guangyu's own industry, naturally became the first reporter to ask questions.
"Li Sheng, what are your expectations for the first work of Jiayi Film Company?"
Li Guangyu thinks that his company is friendly, and it depends on how good this question is. Li Guangyu returned with a smile: "I am very optimistic about Wang Jing's ability, I like his first work written and directed very much, and I also think that this work can bring a good start to the company." ”
A reporter from the Oriental Daily asked Li Guangyu: "Li Sheng, according to the well-known artists of Wireless, you have reached an agreement with Mr. Run Run Shaw of Wireless, and the two companies have formed an alliance, is this the joint action of Wireless, Shaw Brothers and Jiayi Group against Lidi and Golden Harvest?"
Li Guangyu now feels more and more friendly to the people of his own company, and replied to a question from a reporter from Oriental Daily: "Due to the rapid expansion of our Jiayi Group in the past few months, there is a shortage of employees. We all know that Wireless is known as the Whampoa Military Academy for our Xiangjiang entertainers. Uncle Shao Liu saw that our company was in difficulty in development, so he was willing to help me, so that our company could borrow personnel from Shaw Brothers and Wireless to use the company's development. ”
Li Guangyu paused and continued: "Here, I would like to thank Uncle Shao Liu for his selfless help to me, and in return, our company's artists can also be lent to Shaw Brothers and Wireless. As for what you said about Li's and Wireless, it's all nonsense. Our cooperation with Shore Brothers is only to promote the development of both companies, and we will not target any company or individual. ”
The reporter below listened to Li Guangyu's words, this is talking nonsense with his eyes open, you and Shaw Brothers are like this, if it is not for other companies, who will believe it.
......
After answering some reporters' questions, Li Guangyu walked into the Lisheng Theater.
With the arrival of a group of small company owners in Xiangjiang such as Wu Siyuan of Siyuan Pictures, Wrinkle Huai and He Guanchang came to Lisheng Cinema together.
The reporters immediately asked Wrinkle Huai: "Wrinkle Sheng, what do you think about Li Sheng's Jiayi Group?"
Wrinkle Huai was obviously not very happy, and he was about to crush the Shaw Brothers, and Golden Harvest ascended to the hegemony of the Xiangjiang film industry. As a result, Li Guangyu suddenly came out and didn't say anything, but also joined forces with Shaw Brothers to target Jiahe.
"We Golden Harvest welcome both Li Sheng's Jiayi Group and other companies in Xiangjiang that have entered the film industry, and only when there are more companies engaged in the film industry, our films in Xiangjiang will be more competitive. ”
Seeing that the reporter didn't show his wrinkled words, he immediately asked: "We got the news that Shaw Brothers and Jiayi Group have formed a strategic alliance, will this have an adverse impact on Golden Harvest?"
"We are not afraid of any challenges, and I have the ability to lead Golden Harvest to develop better. As for the cooperation between Li Sheng's Jiayi Group and Shaw Brothers, it is a matter for their two companies, and it will not have any impact on our Golden Harvest. ”
......
Shaw was accompanied by Fang Yihua to the Lisheng Cinema, and the reporters interviewed Shao Daheng again.
At eight o'clock in the evening, Li Guangyu made an opening speech for the cinema company.
"Thank you all for coming to the opening of our cinema company under Jiayi Group on the first day of the new year. At the same time, thank you for the arrival of all the senior personnel of our group, because your hard holiday is gone because of the opening of Jiayi Cinema. Here, I would like to give special thanks to Mr. Lei Juekun and Uncle Shao. Without their help, we might not be able to open our doors today. ”
After thanking the guests, Li Guangyu continued: "Our Jiayi Cinema Line has changed the previous model of one theater and one film, and our theater implements a multi-hall model, which can play multiple films at the same time. At the same time, in order to better serve the film companies in Hong Kong, our cinema chain has changed the previous large-scale charter system. Our cinema chain can rent a theater or release movies in the form of a share. ”
When Li Guangyu said this, the owners of the small and medium-sized film companies below instantly became lively. At present, most of the cinemas in Xiangjiang are chartered, and Li Guangyu is the first to open the Xiangjiang cinema system.
After Li Guangyu's speech, the movie "Thousand Kings Fighting Thousand Tyrants" was officially released.
The film written by Wang Jing is more comic than the 1981 film made by Shaw Brothers, the previous life of Li Guangyu.
Li Guangyu and the company's senior management did not finish watching the movie, because the Tin Shui Wai Industrial Park will be officially completed tomorrow. Therefore, the senior management has been very busy in the past few days, and the group left Li Dehua, the general manager of the film company, to accompany him, and Qin Jiao, the manager of the group's administrative department.
Li Guangyu left the Lai Sing Theatre after confessing to Lei Juekun, Run Run Shaw and Wrinkle Huai respectively.
Li Guangyu sat in the study, quietly thinking about the company's development in the past year. Sometimes when I think of something, I make a few notes in my notebook. As he was reborn for a long time, Li Guangyu found that many things in his memories of his previous life were slowly forgotten. Therefore, Li Guangyu always quietly recalls the past by himself every night, and writes down what he thinks of when he has the opportunity. Otherwise, there will be no place to cry when the opportunity has passed.
In 1979, the special economic zone in the north will be established, which is the prelude to foreign economic reform, and who would have thought that the small county town of Bao'an in the north would develop into a world-class big city.
During the year, the Sino-British dispute over the Xiangjiang issue began to become fierce, and Governor MacLehose will travel north this year to meet with the mainland rulers.
In '79, a new round of oil crisis is coming, well, this is definitely an opportunity to make money. It's a pity that there doesn't seem to be an exchange on crude oil at present, and Li Guangyu can only give up.
The seventy-nine years of Xiangjiang were also turbulent, in this year, Li Ka-shing did a big job, and Cheung Kong ate Hutchison Whampoa in the form of a snake swallowing an elephant. Lee plans to privately absorb a portion of Hutchison Whampoa's shares in the market in order to increase his stake in the Hutchison Whampoa Group at that time.
At the same time, the protagonist of the Jianing fraud case that caused a sensation in Hong Kong in 1982, Jianing Club was listed this year, which opened the myth of continuous stock growth for three consecutive years.
Li Guangyu kept thinking about the information that had been beneficial to him this year, and wrote down what he thought of.
