Chapter 1003: On Cooperation
Today's times are really different, entertainment stars will really become the belief of many young people, they are crazy about it, it seems that the other party is all they have, Liu Lang himself does not have any obsession with these singers, he always stands in the perspective of promoting human history, how many of these acting stars can promote the development of human culture? There are also such people, such as "Elvis", Michael Jackson, after all, this is only a very small minority, most people do not have this ability, no matter how many stars there are, the value to mankind is probably not as good as that of a scientist and an excellent engineer.
But this group of stars, they make money far faster than scientists, this is a very "weird" thing, but the market economy supply and demand can explain this phenomenon, and at the same time prove on the side that the more prosperous the market, the richer the country, 30 years later, China's performing arts star appearance fees are often millions, which shows that the country is indeed rich.
Liu Lang defended this star, but Mr. Shao was a little surprised, he felt that with Liu Lang's knowledge, he would have the same idea as himself.
"Old man, it's a new era now, everyone is equal, okay, let's talk about cooperation!"
Mr. Shao didn't just chat with him, both of them are bigwigs in the entertainment industry, Shaw Brothers Group is the most influential entertainment company on Hong Kong Island, but it is nothing internationally, Shengtang Company has become the third largest entertainment company in the United States in just a few years, second only to Sony and Fox, at least in terms of market capitalization.
At the pace of development, it is only a matter of time before it becomes the No. 1 entertainment company in the United States and even the No. 1 in the world, and it may be achieved within five years.
The biggest advantage of Shengtang Company is that it can become popular if you make a movie and release a song, and the success rate is 100%, which is so terrifying that it has aroused the jealousy of other companies, and for a period of time, many Western entertainment companies have joined forces to suppress each other, but fortunately, Lin Guodong and these high-level executives use their interests to win over other companies, and the latest movie "Forrest Gump" is jointly produced by many companies.
Shengtang Company is a big cake, everyone wants to cooperate with them, of course the same is true of the Shaw Group, and now of course we have to talk about meeting Liu Lang.
Liu Lang offered to make Mr. Shao feel very happy, this little guy is really human, and he can even grasp the psychology of the other party.
The two companies have begun to cooperate, Shaw Group is the distributor of Shengtang Company's Hong Kong Island Records, and this distribution share alone exceeded 100 million Hong Kong dollars last year, and the charm of Adeis and the "male god group" cannot be stopped all over the world.
At this time, it was lunch time, Mr. Shao set up a family banquet at home to entertain Liu Lang and a few people, usually the old man eats very casually, let the servants who specialize in cooking do it casually, this time of course not, he specially hired two five-star hotel chefs, early to start preparations, every dish is colorful, flavorful.
"Come, let's talk while eating!"
The old gentleman beckoned everyone to take their seats.
Liu Lang was not polite, picked up the knife, fork and chopsticks and ate it.
"Sir, I have a few good scripts in my hand now, we can shoot together, and I can also write two songs, in short, we are both entertainment companies, and there is no problem working together. ”
Entertainment company cooperation is to develop movies and songs, Liu Lang is the most indispensable is these two, the script and songs Liu Lang does not have to think at all, just take it out, such as "Chinese", "Forget Love Water" and so on, which is a famous song in Chinese music, as for the script, this is more difficult than the song.
It's not that it's hard to write, on the contrary, there were a lot of excellent movies on Hong Kong Island in the 90s, many of which had a huge impact on the mainland, especially Liu Lang's generation, when he was in junior high school in his previous life, he often went to the video hall to watch Hong Kong Island's videos, what "Smiling Proud Jianghu" series, "Huang Feihong" series, "Wei Xiaobao" series and so on, are all films with a reputation in this era, and even in the entire history of Hong Kong Island films, and the entire nineties have also become the golden age of Hong Kong Island films, but these movies are all series, and Liu Lang does not have so much time.
"By the way, why don't you write that movie!"
In a moment, Liu Lang had an idea, and for a person who had been reborn after thirty years, this matter was too simple.
Seeing Liu Lang's happy answer, Mr. Shao was very happy.
"Haha, good, good, I didn't expect you to be so cheerful, come, let's have a drink!"
The old gentleman picked up a glass of wine, and Liu Lang's wine glass was Jianlibao, which was Liu Lang's first choice for drinks in China.
The two drank it all, and the others followed suit.
This matter was settled, Liu Lang didn't talk nonsense, and directly set a time, two songs and a script would be written in March, and then he would go to Hong Kong Island to discuss specific matters.
During the banquet, many people came to toast with Liu Lang, including Mr. Shao's family, who had great respect for Liu Lang, especially the children of Mr. Shao, who treated Liu Lang as a junior, and Liu Lang was very embarrassed.
As for Liu Furong, Li Tianming and Wang Fei, the three stars are even more humble, to be honest, the stars of the nineties don't think they are very good, many people are engaged in this industry purely as a hobby, they continue to hone their acting skills and singing skills to gain the support of fans and fans, unlike those traffic stars many years later, who rely on marketing without much ability, and can't find any masterpieces in a few years, they are not actors or singers, and the only title may only be stars.
The meal was lively, at the beginning, Liu Lang and the old gentleman discussed cooperation, and then everyone talked about the return after seven years.
When it comes to returning, everyone is very excited, especially the old gentleman has been looking forward to that day for a long time, but he feels that he has some difficulty, after all, he is eighty-three years old this year, and he will be ninety years old in seven years, even if he is well maintained, he does not dare to say that he will live to ninety.
Of course, the old gentleman is very open-minded, he has experienced too many things in his life, and he has long been a little pessimistic about life and death.
However, when it comes to the cognition of life and death, no one in the world can compare to Liu Lang, he is a person who has died once.
"Old man, life and death have a life and wealth in the sky, this is an old saying, but it is quite reasonable, you have made so many contributions to the country, so you must live a long life, I think you can live at least one hundred and five years old. ”
It is taboo to talk about other people's life and death, but Liu Lang's words made Mr. Shao smile, how many people in the world can live to be more than 100 years old? In addition, these words came from the mouth of a genius, and I am afraid that it is impossible to say how much life he can really add.
The old gentleman's interest was even higher, and he picked up the wine glass and toasted frequently, so that the health care doctor on the side was full of black lines.
Soon, Huo Tianting and Shao Mingtao also joined the discussion, and everyone imagined that seven years later, they imagined what Hong Kong Island and the country would be like at that time, and the scene became very enthusiastic.
