Although the acquisition of Hong Kong Land is very smooth, Rome was not built in a day, it is easy for Keswick to sell Hongkong Land, but it is a little difficult for Wang Zifan to take over, even if it is 8 yuan per share to acquire 25% of the equity, it will also require nearly 3 billion funds, most of his money is used to pay the bills of the Richfamily family, and he can't take out so much money for a while.

DreamWorks

Wang Zifan checked the company's finances, there are not a lot of incomes recently, the box office in the United States has exceeded 200 million, but the dividends are far away, and the dividends of Hong Kong's "Home Alone" have already arrived, the net profit of the theater is 12.1 million, and the profit of the production department is only 11.03 million, that is to say, this movie has brought him 23.13 million profits, which is a huge profit in other companies, but in DreamWorks, it can only be regarded as upper-middle.

"Boss!" Li Zhi, who was wearing a secretary's uniform, was holding a folder, very secretarial.

"What's the matter?"

""Shaolin Temple" and "Young Master Dragon" have sent invitations to the midnight premiere!" Li Zhi put two invitations on the table, the date on which was midnight on January 18th!

"Premiere tonight?" Wang Zifan was a little surprised, "Best Partner" and "Young Master Long" also premiered tonight, Zou Wenhuai did not change the schedule, "Young Master Long" was his last straw.

"Yes!" Li Zhi nodded to confirm, the difference is that now Hong Kong filmmakers see Golden Harvest on the one hand, and laugh at the leftist film company for not doing its own thing, and even use a low-budget kung fu film to compete with Golden Harvest's tens of millions of productions.

Wang Zifan thought about it and ordered: "Notify me to go down, at 8 o'clock in the morning on the 21st, the manager level and above will come for a meeting."

Li Zhi said: "Okay!"

On occasions like movie premieres, Wang Zifan has not participated in it for a long time, and naturally he will not make an exception for "Young Master Long" and "Shaolin Temple", he is now focusing on his own movie "Best Partner", if he can stand out in "Young Master Long" and "Shaolin Temple"!

On January 18, DreamWorks held the premiere of "Best Partner: The Great Miracle" in one of the most upscale theaters in Kowloon.

On January 19th, the premiere held by the three companies was very successful, and the Prince Cinemas screened "The Best Partner's Magical Powers" in a row, as if it was a clarion call for declaring war, and Golden Harvest Cinemas immediately released "Young Master Long", only the Central Plains Company played a trick, claiming that the movie was still flawed, and it was necessary to make up a few shots, and the release date of the movie was postponed by half a month.

Hong Kong film critics have focused on "Best Partner" and "Master Long", the two films were full of gunpowder before they were released, and now they are finally released in theaters.

"This leftist is quite cunning!" Wang Zifan was very disdainful when he heard the news, before the movie was released, Zhongyuan Company put on a look of wanting to fight with Jiahe "Young Master Long", and now he is slipping away, which is clearly a plan to compete with the snipe and the clam for the fisherman's profit!

Not long after the film was released, the data was counted, the attendance rate of "Young Master Dragon" of Golden Harvest Cinema was a little higher than that of "The Best Partner", most fans went to Cheng Long, and the reputation of the film was also very good, which formed a chain effect, and there was an endless stream of fans watching "Young Master Dragon", with a box office of 1 million on the first day and a box office of more than 1.2 million on the second day, which was full in just two days.

Two days before the release, compared with the attendance rate of "Young Master Dragon", "Best Partner: The Great Miracle Show" is obviously inferior, and the comedy "Little Ghost Plus Family" has reduced the popularity of "Best Partner" to a certain extent, if it weren't for Mecca, Xu Guanjie, and the man's wife have become famous, the attendance rate may be even lower, but the scale of the Prince Cinema is there, and there is unconditional support from Friends of DreamWorks, the box office of "The Best Partner: The Great Miracle Show" is 1.8 million on the first day and 1.85 million on the second day, and the reputation is not lost to "Master Dragon" at all , many fans immediately bought tickets to watch it again after watching it.

Looking at the box office data of "The Best Partner: The Great Miracle", DreamWorks breathed a sigh of relief, even with surprise and joy, although the attendance rate of "The Best Partner: The Great Miracle" is not as good as "Young Master Dragon", but the box office is not inferior to Golden Harvest, "The Best Partner: The Great Magical Power" has the support of the Prince Cinema, and it is not so easy for "Young Master Dragon" to win the championship.

Only Wang Zifan is not satisfied with the box office on the first day, Hong Kong's first cinema is not called in vain, the prince cinema is full, and it can win 2.2 million box office in a single day, and now the box office on the first day is only 1.8 million, there is still a lot of room for growth, and the Propaganda Department must work harder.

Wang Zifan's words can make DreamWorks in charge of the Propaganda Department He Guanchang sad, He Guanchang is an old courtier of Golden Harvest, Wang Zifan acquired Golden Harvest, although the management has not been officially handed over, but Golden Harvest He Guanchang, Liang Feng and other real power factions have been part-time in DreamWorks, Liang Feng was assigned to administrative management, although He Guanchang served as the deputy general manager, but only responsible for the Propaganda Department, because he knew that Wang Zifan attached great importance to publicity, so he mostly imitated Hollywood for propaganda methods, but this time the release of "The Best Partner: The Great Miracle" , The means that can be used have been used, the new boss is still not satisfied, he racked his brains and couldn't think of any other way, just joined the company, he was a little uneasy, and now he is in trouble, only to ask Wang Zifan for advice.

"Mr. Wang, I really can't think of any other way, there are several ways in Hollywood, but the cost is very large, and I don't think it is suitable for Hong Kong. ”

Li Zhi He Guanchang added a cup of tea, the other party is the oldest person in DreamWorks, she once thought that He Guanchang joined DreamWorks with bad intentions, familiar with it for a while, only to know that she made a fuss, people really came to DreamWorks, and it was an inexhaustible effort to complete the publicity work.

Wang Zifan was not angry, but smiled comfortingly for a while. Only then did he explain: "Do you want to say that Hong Kong is such a big place, no matter how well it is promoted, the number of moviegoers will not increase much." ”

"Yes, yes! That's it!" He Guanchang stood up excitedly, Wang Zifan could understand his hardship, this feeling was too amazing, when he was in Jiahe before, how could he not feel that Wang Zifan was so understanding.

Wang Zifan said bluntly: "The main purpose of asking you to plan a publicity plan is not to increase the number of viewers of "The Best Partner: The Great Miracle". ”

"Mr. Wang, I don't understand what you said!" He Guanchang was completely confused, which film company planned publicity not to increase the box office?

Wang Zifan covered his forehead, the old-school filmmaker just didn't open his mind, he had to let him say such embarrassing things to understand?

Li Zhi quickly figured out the trick, seeing that He Guanchang was still ignorant, he couldn't help but be very proud, a well-known producer of Hong Kong films, might as well be a secretary who was a halfway monk, and couldn't help but want to show off, and reminded him in a ghostly manner: "Mr. He, the boss means to pull the fans of Golden Harvest Cinemas to Prince Cinemas." ”

"Huh?" He Guanchang didn't expect it to be this purpose, could it be kidnapped by the underworld.

Wang Zifan added: "It's not specifically for Golden Harvest Cinemas, there are leftist cinemas, and Anle Cinemas that screen Western films, of course, including other small cinemas, although the number of moviegoers in Hong Kong is not much, it is enough to fill the Prince Cinema Line." ”

He Guanchang thought for a while and reminded: "Is this a lose-lose situation, the cost of investment and publicity is not a small amount." ”

Wang Zifan said: "How to save money can be done, the promotional video can be broadcast on Asia TV and TVB at the same time, of course, there is also our Jiashi, in addition to TV stations, such as "Apple Daily", which is also our own newspaper, how to attract attention, you should know very well." ”

He Guanchang pondered and confirmed: "Wang always wants to use up his strength in the past few days, and give up the long-term propaganda plan!"

"That's what I mean!" Wang Zifan nodded approvingly, as long as fans can watch "The Best Partner's Magical Powers", that is to achieve the goal, there is a first time and a second time, and it is recommended by fans to friends, which is more effective than any publicity.

"After you go back, you will do it according to this idea, you must make results in the first week, the minimum requirements, the attendance rate of "The Best Partner: The Great Miracle" cannot be lower than that of "Young Master Long". ”

He Guanchang thought to himself that it was the same as the rumors, Wang Zifan was willing to spend money on publicity, and they all knew these tricks, but they had never done it, and said with a smile: "I understand, I haven't been idle in the past two days, and I have watched "The Best Partner's Great Magic" and "Young Master Long" several times, our company's "Best Partner's Great Magical Power" still has great potential, and I am confident that I will complete the minimum requirements of Mr. Wang." ”

After Li Zhi waited for He Guanchang to leave, she cleaned up the coffee table.

'Bang', the buttocks were attacked, Li Zhiqiao's face was red and dripping blood, she was ashamed and scared, she was too excited just now, and she couldn't help but ridicule the high-level He Guanchang, and now she has to pay the price.

Wang Zifan put his hand on it for a few seconds, enjoying the soft touch, and didn't forget to ask, "Do you know what you did wrong?"

"En......" Lizhi replied shyly, her body straightened, according to her previous experience, she would have to be lightened for a while, and she might even experience a.

……

Time passed day by day, as time went by, "The Best Partner: The Great Miracle Show" finally began to exert its power, and the attendance rate on the sixth day began to be full, with a single-day box office of 2.23 million, and a box office of 12.32 million in the first week, a number that made Golden Harvest desperate, the box office of "Young Master Dragon" was 9.87 million in the first week, and the box office of "Best Partner: The Great Magical Power" was far ahead of "Young Master Long" when the attendance rate was lower than that of "Young Master Long".

Wang Zifan pays attention to the attendance rate of the theater line, but others don't see it that way, especially Hong Kong fans, the easiest way for them to judge the quality of a film is to see which side has the highest box office, "The Best Partner: The Great Miracle" box office is much higher than "Young Master Long", so they chose to enter the Prince Cinema to watch "The Best Partner: The Great Magic".

Looking at the statistical report of Jiahe Cinema Line, compared with Jiahe Cinema Line, the daily box office of DreamWorks above is very dazzling, Zou Wenhuai's eyes are scattered, even though there are thousands of words, but he can't say a word, he held back for a long time, and only said three words.

"Why?"

One sentence asked everyone's heart, Liu Lianghua also wanted to know why, "Best Partner: Showing Magical Powers" is a fashion comedy, except for Xu Guanjie, the leading actors used in it are all newcomers, especially the heroine Zhang Aijia, who took the lead in the development of Hong Kong for the first time, this is the second film she played, and "Young Master Long" is a big production of more than 10 million, starring Hong Kong's top superstar Cheng Long, this role can be thrown out of "The Best Partner: The Great Miracle" A few streets, why is it the ending?

"Why?" Zou Wenhuai lost his mind and asked again.

"Ah Huai!" Liu Lianghua was worried, she was also unexpected, compared to the failure of "Young Master Long", he was more worried about Zou Wenhuai's physical condition, the two have hooked up for more than ten years, and now it is time to break up, and he feels very uncomfortable.

After He Guanchang and Liang Feng switched to DreamWorks, Cai Yongchang was still hesitating, staying at Golden Harvest for the time being, thinking about it for a long time, and said with a wry smile: "It's not the problem of "Young Master Long", it's that Prince Fan is too demonic, any film can make such a high box office, we lost, not the film." ”

Zou Wenhuai laughed at himself: "We lost? After planning for so long, we lost to the rebel generals." ”

Liu Lianghua knew that he was referring to Xu Guanjie, Xu Guanjie was the ace of Jiahe at the beginning, and now it was he who gave Jiahe the final blow.

Manager Liu of the Propaganda Department of Jiahe said: "The most troublesome thing is that we have gone too far in publicity, and now we can't take it back, and many people are waiting to see the joke." ”

Zou Wenhuai restrained himself and asked Cai Yongchang, "How is the theater over there?"

Cai Yongchang sighed, and even felt some pity for Zou Wenhuai, and said in a low voice: "The attendance rate is declining, the scale of our theater chain is too small, and the single-day box office has been pulled down by 500,000, and if this continues, the final box office of "Young Master Long" will lose to "The Best Partner: The Great Miracle Show" by about 15 million." ”

"It's too much!" Zou Wenhuai was depressed in his heart, with a gap of fifteen million, who would say that "Young Master Long" is better than "The Best Partner's Great Miracle", there is no doubt that he is out.

Cai Yongchang complained: "I have long mentioned that I want to expand the theater chain, and DreamWorks is constantly moving, and we can't do it even if we want to do it in two years." ”

Liu Lianghua reminded: "We are renting even the studio now, what ability do we have to expand the theater line." ”

Cai Yongchang said dejectedly: "It's useless to talk about this now!"

Liu Lianghua has been studying the success of DreamWorks recently, she thinks that Zou Wenhuai is no worse than Wang Zifan, and the people in the conference room are more capable than Xiao Ruoyuan and Mai Dangxiong, why can DreamWorks be controlled by Wang Zifan and engage in Yiyantang, but they Jiahe can only develop step by step, and now they can't even keep their family business!

"Maybe we were too impatient at the beginning, but Wang Zifan is the right way. ”

Zou Wenhuai's eyes flashed, witnessing the success of DreamWorks, he sometimes thinks so, and his heart is unwilling, if he is not in a hurry to expand the Hollywood market, but concentrates funds to consolidate the Hong Kong market, Golden Harvest would have dominated the Hong Kong film industry a long time ago.

There is no hope!

Liu Lianghua, Cai Yongchang and others looked at each other a few times, and their mood was very depressed, "Young Master Long" was defeated, and finding someone to take over has become a joke, and it won't be long before Wang Zifan can take over Jiahe with the aftermath of the big victory, and they have helped Zou Wenhuai resist until now, and they are also benevolent and righteous, and they have to think about themselves next.
