Chapter 514: Circle Money and Cooperation

PS: Ask for a recommendation ticket, ask for a monthly pass!

1024 Viewing Room.

There is a screen hanging in the dark, and it is the new play "Little Man Weekly" that has just been completed in the later stage.

This drama is a collaboration between Qiu Litao and Chen Jiazhu, and it is also a low-budget comedy.

"Not bad. ”

Wu Xiaozu crossed his legs, leaned on the independent sofa in the camel-colored leather airplane cabin, held a glass of American craft beer in his hand, took a sip, and felt the bitterness and mellowness of malt in his mouth. glanced at Qiu Litao and Chen Jiazhu, who were restless behind them, and took the cigar handed by Jiang Ershao, tore off the wrapper, and baked it with a cigarette gun.

"Has the schedule been decided?"

"It's settled. ”

Qiu Litao grinned, "It's set for May 28." ”

Wu Xiaozu nodded, and turned his gaze to Zhang Jiazhen, who was holding a pipe to add tobacco to the side, "Brother Zhen, is there no problem with publicity, right?

"The day before yesterday, Hollywood's sci-fi film "Zero Degree Space" was released in the Golden Princess Theater, and the effect was not very good, but the biggest competition was Debao's "Double Fat Arrival" and Golden Harvest's "Three Pairs of Mandarin Ducks and One Bed" released at the same time!

The previous part has the original cast of "Rich and Powerful", and its strength should not be underestimated. Zhang Manyu and Zeng Zhiwei also made cameo appearances, which can be regarded as starry. The latter part is Zhang Xueyan and Honggu, and the theme slightly overlaps with the audience positioning of "Little Man Weekly". ”

Zhang Jiazhen lit his pipe, swallowed a puff, and continued, "But our film has a certain foundation, and our publicity has always started from this aspect. Many of the listeners are potential viewers, so it shouldn't be too bad"

Zhang Jiazhen is very familiar with the schedule, whether it is Debao or Golden Harvest, he is very well-connected, and it is easy to collect information about opponents. At the same time, he is indeed very methodical in the construction of distribution channels.

Jiang Ershao took a sip of his cigar with a little worry, took two puffs hard, and said, "The pressure is a bit high, is it inconvenient to adjust the schedule?"

"I'm afraid not. In late June and early July, companies began to prepare for the summer vacation. The cost of publicity and distribution has begun to soar, at least twice as expensive as it is now, which is really not worth it for a low-cost life comedy.

And this period of time is also the date of the release of each singer, and the entire entertainment market will be affected......"

Zhang Jiazhen vetoed Jiang Zhiqiang's proposal, and analyzed with a serious expression, "If this movie is delayed, if it affects the resource investment of "Double Heroes: Start War Now". The gains outweigh the losses! It will affect our layout in the stock market. ”

Hearing Zhang Jiazhen mention the stock market, Jiang Zhiqiang couldn't say anything.

With the development of the company, the grouping of One Zero Two Locomotive Entertainment Company is also slowly proceeding, and the structure is being optimized.

In terms of film production, it is also divided into 1024 locomotive (Hong Kong Island/Seoul/Jakarta/Bangkok/Taipei/Tokyo/Singapore) film companies. Although the rest of the company, except for the island company, are leather bag companies, or the office is more suitable, the framework has been completed anyway.

Next, it is estimated that there will be offices or studios in the mainland, and the plates are made, waiting for the stock market to use the leeks to buy these companies after the money is circled.

These companies are independent subsidiaries and are perfectly fine with acquisitions.

Southeast Asian film distribution is handled by E7 Culture, while European film distribution is handled by Woodpecker Films and Dutch Windmill Films. At the same time, it also includes buying films for distribution.

The videotape market was completed by Huanyu International Laser Tape Company, and it was distributed with Woodpecker videotape.

At the same time, One Zero Two Locomotive Entertainment Company will also include the subsidiary of Tianxia Company.

These concerns and considerations are being carried out in an orderly manner.

"Actually, we have a precise judgment about the audience. ”

Yu Weiguo also agreed, "Although the box office of the film will be affected, the audience has grasped it relatively steadily. Compared with the summer file, this movie is more suitable at this time. ”

"In that case, it will be released as scheduled. Wu Xiaozu bowed his head and didn't say much.

1988 was definitely the year when the box office on Hong Kong Island began to soar collectively, and since the beginning of the year, the entire box office market has continued to rise. At the same time, comedy is also beginning to usher in spring.

The history of reincarnation is very similar to the box office development curve of later generations.

The Spring Festival stalls of "Eight Star Annunciation" and "Rich and Powerful" all exploded at the box office. The former has a box office of 38 million and now occupies the first place in the box office list in 1988, and "Suspect" has 32 million, which is only second.

This year is a comedy movie and a LLL movie!

The big-breasted brother is also stepping up the production of "Dream Back to the Tang Dynasty 2", and the heroines of this drama will be Ye Yuqing and Ye Zimei.

"We must pay enough attention to the summer file. ”

Wu Xiaozu said uneasily, "The feature film of "God of Gamblers" has been filmed, and the editing and post-production will not be until mid to late July at the earliest.

I've asked the staff to cut out some tidbits and makeup posters and send them to the company to announce the door, and try to warm up in advance!"

The movie "God of Gamblers" is not only to compete for the summer file, but also Wu Xiaozu wants to use it to leverage the stock price of the entire E7 culture.

And then... Ahem, use the money of the leeks to acquire the leather bag offices opened by themselves in Southeast Asia, complete the grouping, and officially develop towards the Golden Princess Entertainment Company and Golden Harvest Entertainment Group.

Therefore, as Zhang Jiazhen said, there is no room for error.

Of course, on the successful carriage behind the play "God of Gamble", in addition to Wu Xiaozu, there are Cai Songlin, He Chaoqiong and even Liu Luanxiong.

Cai Songlin said that he invested in this drama, and He Chaoqiong because this drama was an opportunity for her to pry open the family's main business.

As for Liu Luanxiong~

I don't think that people helped Wu Xiaozu meet 'Uncle Xiang' for no reason and invited him to join the Big D Club, right?

In fact, E7 Culture, which is responsible for the guaranteed issuance of "God of Gamblers", has also been operating slowly in the stock market, and Liu Luanxiong will naturally have to eat a lot at that time.

In the previous life, why did "Monster Hunt" do box office so obviously? Even if it was tens of millions of extra taxes, it would spare no effort?

The tax is only a few dollars?

The real giants stand behind, they only need to move their fingers, and in the stock market, they really earn back ten times or even dozens of times casually!

This is also the main reason why film and television stocks in later generations frequently want to be listed. It is also the most important reason for the state to strengthen control.

People in the entertainment industry play with people in the capital circle, that's really a big deal!

Many fans think that Wu Jing has made a lot of money, and his little money is really not much compared to the stock of Imperial Capital Culture...... As for the money of Imperial Capital Culture, there is a huge gap between it and the real giants who play capital.

The outbreak of things such as the doctor's fraud and the uncle's chanting is just the aftermath of several capitals fighting each other.

When a TV series is produced, the 10-figure bright side generates income, and there is tens of billions of capital participation behind it, Uncle Wu is not because the chanting is cold, but the result of the collision of capitals. (You can check the things here, it's quite interesting, it's a typical case of capital tearing face.) οΌ‰

Director Wu is not talented, he is not greedy and black-hearted, self-aware and flattering, ruthless and shameless, the most important thing is that while he plans to cut leeks, he can also let others make leek egg dumplings together.

Heaven does not give birth to me Wu Xiaozu, film and television stocks are as long as a long night...

"Wu Shengβ€”" The secretary pushed the door and walked in, whispering a few words in his ear.

Wu Xiaozu listened to the secretary's words, nodded, got up and smiled at everyone, "Since this is the case, everyone will go back and get ready." ”

"Something?" Jiang Zhiqiang asked curiously.

Wu Xiaozu bowed slightly, and said to him, "Jiang Shao, you help me deal with the interviews of several media, saying that there is a delay on my side, and I apologize to these uncrowned kings." Give them a little more money for the carriage and horses. ”

"No problem. ”

…………

"Miss Fang, your coffee-"

Jiang Jiahua calmly and gracefully entertained the legendary strong woman in front of him with two cups of coffee.

The name and identity of the other party are really true, even Jiang Jiahua has to greet him with a smile in person.

"I've heard Jiahua for a long time, you're doing a good job here, we haven't seen each other for a long time, right?"

Fang Yihua was wearing a black women's suit, with a small silk scarf around her neck, and her eyes under the gold wire glasses were slightly curved to reveal a smile, but she could not hide the decisive sharp aura between her eyebrows.

"It's been two years, and the last time it was TVB was celebrated, and I happened to go to interview with my radio colleagues. Jiang Jiahua smiled and responded, "Miss Fang, you are still so resolute." I guess you can just make a phone call......"

"That's right, Miss Fang, it's good if you have something to call me, why bother to run by yourself......" Wu Xiaozu just pushed the door and walked in, and said with a smile, "This makes me honestly afraid." Anyway, you're all my elders. ”

"It's just a stop-by, just come to your company to have a look. ”

Fang Yihua chuckled, "I just heard Hu Jinquan say that you want to remake "Dragon Gate Inn", and I also have something to discuss with you, so I came over." Why? It's not welcome, is it?"

"How could you, Miss Fang, your arrival is really brilliant......

Wu Xiaozu smiled and flattered, and then said to the other party, "I do plan to remake "Dragon Gate Inn", but the background of the story will change to the Ming Yingzong period, I want to discuss with Miss Fang to see if I can buy the copyright~"

"The copyright was first owned by the Wanwan company, and then the Shaw Brothers bought it. But Azu, if you're filming, why don't you count me in?" Fang Yihua stared at Wu Xiaozu with a smile, "Don't worry, I will operate in accordance with the rules of the industry and will not interfere with your shooting." ”

Hehe~

You invest~

Wu Xiaozu smiled. Fang Yihua is notoriously frugal.

Xiao Ruoyuan said that if there is a director filming and says that he wants to take money to hire a hundred tricks, it is best to have a scene that really shoots 100 people, because Miss Fang will really count your number in the camera.

Also, when she first entered Shaw Brothers, a director wanted to make an appointment with a tightrope to shoot a light work scene, and asked her to pay after filming, but she said that she couldn't pay, because she couldn't see the "tightrope" in the movie.

Wu Xiaozu is really afraid that this Miss Fang will count her tightropes!

In later generations, many people mentioned Fang Yihua because they squeezed Zou Wenhuai and He Guanzhi away.

In fact, she was wronged.

She was really ordered to be in danger at that time, even if she had the support of her sixth uncle, it was difficult.

At that time, in fact, the power of the Shaw Brothers was concentrated in the hands of veterans such as Zou Wenhuai, Cai Yongchang, and He Guanchang, and a group of people controlled the propaganda and production departments of the Shaw Brothers.

The process and reason why she joined Shaw Brothers to learn to be a producer was actually because the "corruption" within Shaw Brothers was very serious at that time, and she had to reorganize the structure. Later, Zou Wenhuai ran away, in fact, there were various reasons.

If you want to say that Boss Zou was not corrupt in office, I'm afraid no one will believe it.

It's just that Lao Zou sang bitter dramas well at that time, and Fang Yihua was indeed too ruthless.

In short, it is impossible to distinguish between right and wrong.

However, I don't know why, Fang Yihua has become the not very likable person in Hong Kong entertainment.

As for layoffs...... TVB has a board of directors! In the final analysis, she is also responsible to shareholders.

"I'm going to make a co-production for this film. Wu Xiaozu said with a smile.

"Co-production?"

Fang Yihua stared at Wu Xiaozu and smiled, "You should consider the matter of investment." I think it's good for both of us. TVB can also carry out publicity here, right? I think the cooperation between us and the two sides should be a matter of mutual benefit, right? You can rest assured, Shaw Brothers has no intention of starting movies again, and Metropolitan Films is just catering to the market. ”

"I understand. ”

Wu Xiaozu naturally knew that the other party did not have the intention of restarting the Shaw Brothers, and after thinking about it, in addition to being frugal at work, the other party did not have too many problems in life.

"You can talk about investment cooperation, but you can't interfere with how to spend this money, Miss Fang. Of course, financially, you can send someone to check the accounts, which 1024 Locomotive has always been very professional. ”

"Okay, I'll send someone to your side to deal with copyright contracts and investment matters. Fang Yihua took a sip of coffee with a slight smile, very professional, "I won't interfere in the shooting."

By the way, which dynasty are you photographing? Which one is it and which one is the Song and Qing dynasties?"

"Ahem~"

Looking at Fang Yihua's serious appearance, Wu Xiaozu almost choked on a sip of coffee and squirted out of his nostrils. Apparently the other party really doesn't know!

Only then did he understand that Li Heizi was chatting with him and saying that Miss Fang was illiterate, which was really not bragging.

He always thought that Li Heizi was black for the sake of black!

Li Hanxiang and a group of people talked about Xu Zhimo's later wife Lu Xiaoman, and then Fang Yihua, who was sitting next to him, asked very seriously, 'Who is Lu Xiaoman?', and everyone present at that time was very surprised that Miss Fang didn't know her.

She's had even more bizarre things. Chu Yuan wanted to shoot "Zhu Men's Resentment", Chu Yuan could still make money at that time, Fang Yihua said very interestingly: Director, you said you can shoot anything, but why Zhu Men?

Chu Yuan didn't know how to answer these words for a long time, so he could only explain to her the allusion of "Zhumen's wine and meat stinks".

"Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, the Ming Dynasty was in front of the Qing Dynasty. Wu Xiaozu had no choice but to explain.

"Oh. ”

Fang Yihua nodded, didn't pay much attention to this question, changed the topic, and asked, "Miss Hong Kong Island, do you have any good suggestions?" I watched your previous interview on TVB, and you mentioned the awakening of women's self-consciousness, I want to start from this aspect, what do you think?"

"My IΒ· Company T sponsored Miss Hong Kong Island clothing this time, which involved many relatively new costumes. On the basis of the swimwear section, I hope to show more of each individual's personality.

Qingxia also personally communicated with internationally renowned designers to design a lot of underwear. I added some decorative wings behind these underwear to symbolize the wings of dreams, which I thought would better reflect the spirit of Miss Hong Kong Island.

At the same time, I also invited some celebrities to record VCRs to cheer on some of the players. I want to be able to attract a larger audience. ”

Wu Xiaozu tried many sets of artworks with Aunt Lin at night, and he proposed some concepts at the beginning, or simply asked Shen Jiawei to imitate internationally renowned brands, and then combined with some of his later research, to improve the Victoria's Secret.

"It's a great idea. Fang Yihua became interested, "It's just that the cost is ......."

"These are all provided by us for free, and we will also give a sponsorship fee!" Wu Xiaozu didn't know what this "sixth aunt" thought, and sure enough, with Wu Xiaozu's words, Fang Yihua showed a satisfied smile.

The two communicated some cooperation matters again, and Fang Yihua left satisfied.
