318 [Careful Thoughts]
Mid-levels villas.
Huo Yaowen has always been very greedy for this place, a few years ago because he had no money, and now there is no one to sell it.
followed the maid into the house, and saw Huo Guantai and Huo Zhenting sitting there.
Seeing the person coming, Huo Guantai got up with a smile and said, "Yaowen is here, sit." ”
Nodding and sitting down with a smile, Huo Yaowen curiously glanced at Huo Zhenting, who was sitting next to him, looked at Huo Guantai suspiciously, and asked, "Uncle Huo is in such a hurry to find me?"
Huo Guantai asked, "Have you read the Gazette recently?"
Huo Yaowen nodded: "Well, for the sake of the change of governor?"
"That's right, this time Governor Dai resigned, and the business community is going to hold a farewell party, and the Guangdong Chamber of Commerce originally wanted me to go as a representative, but you should know my situation, so I won't go in, you can go with Zhenting." ”
There are many chambers of commerce in Hong Kong, among which the most influential are the four "Chinese Manufacturers' Association", "Hong Kong General Chamber of Commerce", "Federation of Hong Kong Industries" and "Chinese Importers' and Exporters' Association".
However, in addition to these four major chambers of commerce, there are countless regional chambers of commerce, including "Chaozhou Chamber of Commerce", "Guangdong Chamber of Commerce", "Fujian Chamber of Commerce" and so on.
Although Huo Yaowen hardly manages the company's affairs, Yaowen Book Publishing Company was affiliated with the name of the "Guangdong Chamber of Commerce" last year, and in the past two years, it has also cooperated with the rest of the businessmen of the Chamber of Commerce, and is one of the members of the Chamber of Commerce.
It's just that he didn't expect Huo Guantai to ask him and Huo Zhenting to attend the farewell party on behalf of the Guangdong Chamber of Commerce.
"Just me and Brother Huo?" Huo Yaowen asked suspiciously.
Without waiting for Huo Guantai to answer, Huo Zhenting on the side smiled and said: "Of course it's not Yaowen, in addition to the two of us, President Li Wenzheng will also bring a lot of directors over, and there will definitely be a lot of people at that time, just our Guangdong Chamber of Commerce has at least twenty or thirty people, and there are even more in other chambers of commerce." And at the farewell party, the person sent by the new governor of Hong Kong will also be there. ”
Huo Yaowen was still strange, there was originally a public farewell ceremony on October 16th, how could a good business community also hold a private farewell party, as soon as he heard this, he understood, once a son of heaven and a courtier, it turned out to be to inquire about the news in advance!
"Okay, when is the farewell?"
Although Huo Yaowen's current business is not very large, and it is only in the field of publishing, but now that he has entered the furniture industry, he can hardly guarantee that he will not be involved in so many ways to make a fortune in the future.
Huo Zhenting said: "On the evening of October 14th. ”
Number 14?
That's only about ten days.
I guess Anna should have arrived at that time, right?
……
After more than a month of release, "Tangshan Big Brother" broke the box office of one million, broke the box office of two million, and finally broke through the unprecedented box office of three million on October 6th!
not only broke the 1.28 million box office of Shaw Brothers' "One-Armed Knife King" last year, but also more than doubled this record, with a box office of 3 million!
Now, "Big Brother Tangshan" is still being screened, although the attendance rate is very small, almost less than 50%, excluding the theater's share, the profit is not very high, but Zou Wenhuai thinks that the higher the box office, the better, he is reluctant to release it so early, and he is ready to try to see if it can break through 4 million!
Of course, this is impossible, in this year, when the ticket price has not risen, a movie ticket depends on the number of seats and time to calculate the price, the front seat is 1.5 yuan, the middle seat is 1.8 yuan, the back seat is 2.4 yuan, the special seat is 3 yuan, and the balcony seat is 3.5 yuan.
So on average, the price of each movie ticket is almost three yuan smaller, and if calculated from the total box office, at least more than one million people walked into the cinema to watch this "Tangshan Big Brother".
For Hong Kong, which currently has a population of just over 4 million, a quarter of the people who watched this movie are unimaginably sensational and well-known.
Bruce Lee is still in the eyes of the public at the moment, and he has still become the "Dillon" and "Wang Yu" who have been famous for a long time.
You must know that these two have been making movies for many years, and Bruce Lee surpassed these people in just one movie and became a superstar of Hong Kong film martial arts films, which can be said to be soaring.
Even with the heroine Yiyi and the supporting actress Miao Kexiu, they all followed suit and became a hot and popular actress.
At this time, Zou Wenhuai, who had a crooked mouth, even spent a lot of money to hold a celebration party at the Mandarin Hotel, in addition to inviting all the crew members, Huo Yaowen naturally can't forget the hero, who still owes the other party 500,000!
At the celebration banquet, Bruce Lee was grateful to Huo Yaowen, and the success of this movie was due to his script and the help he gave when troubles arose.
Huo Yaowen deserved the script, after all, the original history was written by Bruce Lee himself, but he gladly accepted the help later.
When the celebration banquet was about to be held, Zou Wenhuai asked Huo Yaowen to talk about it alone.
Inside the hotel room.
Zou Wenhuai warmly invited him to sit down, and then said, "Mr. Huo, I don't know if you have any ideas for investing in a film company?"
"Invest in a film company?" Huo Yaowen raised his eyebrows, he knew very well how prosperous Hong Kong films would be in the next 20 years, looking at Zou Wenhuai's meaning, did he want to let himself invest in Golden Harvest?
"Yes, invest in Golden Harvest!"
Zou Wenhuai is a person with a strong desire to control, and he is naturally unwilling to go out with shares, so it is a helpless move for Huo Yaowen to invest in Golden Harvest, a few days ago, some managers and bosses of the United Cinema Line held a meeting, in addition to discussing the box office sharing of Tangshan Big Brother, more of a proposal to increase the price of movie tickets next year.
As soon as he saw that there were benefits, he immediately raised the ticket price, which is not business material at all, but Zou Wenhuai was not a later movie tycoon at this time, and the established Golden Harvest was only a small company, and there were only two small theaters under his name.
After a few days of thinking, he thought about finding someone to invest in Golden Harvest, using the invested money to expand the cinema line, and develop the cinema line that belongs to Golden Harvest, no longer relying on the scattered joint cinema lines outside, so that he would not be restrained by others.
Zou Wenhuai knows a lot of rich people, but many of them are people with a strong desire for power, on the other hand, Huo Yaowen is different, his main job is not a businessman but a writer, and he will not interfere too much in the company's affairs.
So after thinking about it, I think the most suitable person is none other than Huo Yaowen!
That's why on the eve of today's celebration banquet, I pulled him to the room to talk about it.
"Mr. Zou, I don't know much about the film company, I'll think about it and give you an answer in two days. ”
Seeing Zou Wenhuai's real appearance, Huo Yaowen's hesitant appearance on his face, this can be said to be happy in his heart.
He knows very well how much influence Golden Harvest Films will have in Hong Kong, even Southeast Asia, and even the entire Chinese world in the future, and now Zou Wenhuai is begging for his own investment, although the shares may not take much advantage, but it can be regarded as a profitable investment.
"This is natural, when Mr. Huo thinks about it, he will talk about this matter!"
Zou Wenhuai saw Huo Yaowen's hesitation, but he was happy in his heart, because the hesitation showed that he didn't want to get involved in the film industry, so he would definitely not participate in the management of the company in the future, which was in line with his mind.
……
"Big Brother Tangshan broke the box office record of Hong Kong movies!"
"Bruce Lee, the new Hong Kong movie superstar!"
"The director who created the box office myth, Luo Wei, a generation of famous directors!"
"The biggest rival of Shaw Brothers movies is born!"
"After running away, Zou Wenhuai not only did not fall down, but soared into the sky!"
With "Big Brother Tangshan" breaking the macabre box office of 3 million and holding a grand celebration banquet, the following week, Hong Kong's entertainment newspapers and weekly magazines began to carnival, jumping up and down like boiling frogs.
