Chapter 077: Rich and Capricious

Everyone entered the reception room and sat down one by one, and the front desk lady served tea and reluctantly opened the door and left.

"Please!"

Manager Zhao Zhao picked up the teacup and saluted, then took a sip first, waited for a while, and then looked at the three of them: "Director Yang, in fact, I'm curious, why did you find us Guangyi first......?"

After thinking about it twice, Zhao Ruihua put down the cup and continued: "After all, Shaw Brothers don't talk about it, as far as Cathay Pacific is concerned, it is stronger than ours. ”

When Yang Qiu heard this, he couldn't help but glance at Zhou Song, and explained with a wry smile: "Manager Zhao, I'm not afraid of your jokes, our Taishan was once miserable by Cathay Pacific." ”

"Oh?"

Zhao Ruihua frowned, suddenly sat up straight, and said, "I don't know if Director Yang would mind saying it, the contemptible people would like to hear about it." ”

"Uh...... OK. ”

After hesitating, Yang Qiu carefully explained the film "Women and Tigers", how to contact Cathay Pacific, how to sign a contract with Cathay Pacific, and how Cathay Pacific tricked people, from beginning to end to Zhao Ruihua.

Zhao Ruihua sometimes frowned, sometimes nodded, but listened very seriously.

After a long time, after Yang Qiu finished speaking slowly, Zhao Ruihua shook his head and thought about it carefully, then looked up at them and sighed: "Boss Lu of Cathay Pacific, since he was a child, he was born in art, and it is not surprising that His Majesty is not strict. ”

"What does Manager Zhao mean that the people below did this behind the back of the big boss of Cathay Pacific?"

"However, Lu Yuntao is still very bookish. Zhao Ruihua leaned back on the sofa and said happily: "But the book is a lot angry, and it is also a bad thing to be unable to suppress the people below." ”

"Those people are not afraid that this matter will reach Lu Yuntao's ears if they do this?"

"What are you afraid of, the whole Cathay Pacific, since Old Man Lu left, either Lu Yuntao's cousin or cousin, not brother-in-law or sister-in-law, what are they afraid of?"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"Hahaha, Director Yang don't look at me with this look. Zhao Ruihua saw Yang Qiu looking at him with a strange look, but suddenly remembered that Guangyi is also a family-owned business, and couldn't help explaining: "Our Guangyi, although there are many princes, but the big boss is still alive, but he still speaks his word." ”

Zhao Ruihua raised his head, tapped the armrest with his right hand, and continued to talk: "Our boss He often says that doing business, paying attention to the long stream, and talking about integrity. Integrity is lost, but it can no longer be picked up. ”

"For this reason, I am afraid that the people below us will deceive him, and he also comes from Singapore every year to check the accounts. When Zhao Ruihua said this, he suddenly deflated and asked: "Do you know when the last time Boss Lu came to Xiangjiang?"

"When?"

"It was two years ago, when Cathay Pacific's Heung Kong Distribution Company was established. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

After Zhao Ruihua's introduction, Yang Qiu slowly deepened his image of Cathay Pacific boss Lu Yuntao.

Cathay Pacific Group was originally a large family business operating banks, hotels, real estate, mining and orchards in Singapore and Malaysia.

Then, Lu Yuntao was born.

A young man who grew up in fine clothes and fine food, collected thousands of pets, and later went abroad to study in Cambridge, cultivating a body of artistic cells silently formed.

In the early forties, Mr. Lu died, and Lu Yuntao returned to Singapore and Malaysia to take over Cathay Pacific.

Because he loved art, he fell in love with movies, and Lu Yuntao resolutely stepped into the film industry.

Before 1946, Cathay Pacific only had two theaters in Singapore and Malaysia, and then Lu Yuntao bought and bought, built and built all the way, and two years later, in 48 years, the number of theaters soared to more than 40.

Among the more than 40 theaters, most of them are new theaters, introducing American wide screens, new projectors, new audio, new air conditioners, and new ......

Even the slogan is 'there is a cinema in every region, and every Southeast Asian can enjoy noble entertainment'.

At this time, Cathay Cinema not only jumped to the second largest cinema line in Singapore and Malaysia, second only to Shaw Brothers, but also pulled down the second Guangyi.

Speaking of which, Yang Qiu really wanted to look up to the sky and sigh, and come to a sentence - what a rich and capricious!

And the consequences of this strong expansion are first of all a large number of vacancies in management, and then naturally there is a wide range of cronyism, after all, relatives are more reliable than strangers.

It's just that I didn't expect Lu Yuntao to be a scholar, and he couldn't subdue this group of relatives who had made money.

In the end, the result is that someone is in it and takes advantage of the opportunity.

Tarzan is one of the victims of this black hand.

Yang Qiu felt that people like Lu Yuntao would still meet him if he had the opportunity in the future, after all, he would come to Xiangjiang in the future to establish Dianmao Pictures Company and fight with the Shaw Brothers in the ring.

It's just that you must not fly with Lu Yuntao!

After all, when Shao Yifu died, in those documentaries of Shao Yifu's life, it was clearly said that Lu Yuntao, Shao Yifu's biggest competitor in the sixties, took the company's senior management to a plane and unfortunately crashed.

Not a single person in the plane was spared!

It was the saddest and funniest moment in Yang Qiu's memory......

It's like a guy who has an enemy who is a peerless master, but when this guy practices hard and cultivates to make great progress, he can finally compete with the enemy, but the enemy chokes to death because of drinking water.

This is the sorrow of the bitter scholars, the sorrow of the enemy, but the comical ......

After Lu Yuntao's crash, the electricity also disappeared, and the last bit of inheritance cheapened Golden Harvest, opening a more magnificent 80s.

Of course, we still talk about going back to the 50s, in the reception room of Guangyizhuang.

"Director Yang's "Secret Love in Peach Blossom Spring" is really well written. Zhao Ruihua praised Yang Qiu, but he didn't have the cheekiness to say that the shooting was really good, leaned down and continued to ask: "It's our honor that this film can be released to us, but I don't know what kind of distribution method you want for the movie?"

This is the movie, we have taken a fancy to it, and asked whether you want to act as an agent or buy it outright.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

The three of Taishan were speechless, all of them were entangled, or Zhou Song looked at the other two without speaking, and said hesitantly: "We want to ask you Guangyi to send ...... on your behalf."

"No!"

Yang Qiu suddenly interrupted Zhou Song's words, closed his eyes and let out a sigh, looked at several people who were looking at him curiously, and said, "If you can buy it out directly, I think it's better to buy it out directly." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Zhou Song and Zha Liangjian stared at each other, their brains were confused, this was not the result of yesterday's discussion? After all, this film is so easy to sell, it would be a bit too much of a loss to buy it directly.

They were still thinking about gambling on Guangyi's character yesterday.

What kind of medicine is sold in Yang Qiu's brain?

Unless...... Guangyi is also a virtue with Cathay!

Could it be that Yang Qiu saw that this light art was also wrong? Out of trust in Yang Qiu, neither of them made a sound, but buried their doubts deep in their hearts.

Zhao Ruihua glanced at the three of them and said with a smile: "If you buy out, the price may be a little out of line with your expectations, after all, we still have to take a lot of risks." ”

"It's okay, we know that. Yang Qiu replied quietly.

"Well, okay......" Zhao Ruihua was a little surprised by Yang Qiu, frowned and pondered for half a minute, and slowly replied: "If you buy out the price, with my rights, Director Yang, I can give you up to 70,000." ”

"Seventy thousand!"

"Yang Qiu, this price is ......"

Zhou Song and Zha Liangjian whispered for a while, overjoyed, but Yang Qiu still looked at Zhao Ruihua quietly, with a calm face: "Manager Zhao, the buyout I am talking about is not only the buyout in Singapore and Malaysia, but also includes Singapore, Indonesia, Thailand, Europe and the United States...... and even all the foreign ports in the mainland and so on. ”

"What?!"

"What's going on?"

At this time, not only Zhao Ruihua was dumbfounded, but even Zha Liangjian and Zhou Song opened their mouths wide and looked at him in surprise.

What's going on, aren't you here to sell the copyrights of Singapore and Malaysia today?

"I'll tell you more about it later. Yang Qiu turned his head sideways and whispered, then turned his head to look at Zhao Ruihua, who was stunned, and said, "Manager Zhao, what do you think of this proposal?"

"Wait, are you serious?" Zhao Ruihua wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Yang Qiu nodded and replied seriously, "Two hundred percent serious." ”

"Uh...... Wait, I can't do this, I'll call the head office. Zhao Ruihua stood up and staggered out of the reception room.

"Manager Zhao, I'll wait for you. ”

Seeing Zhao Ruihua walk out of the reception room, and looking at the puzzled glances cast by Zha Liangjian and Zhou Song, Yang Qiu sighed, took out a crumpled newspaper from his arms and handed it over.

"What?"

"Didn't you just buy it in the morning?"

"Landing exercises?"

"What's that?"

"What does it matter to us to fight on the other side of the peninsula?"

"That's a Korean thing. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"Hehβ€”β€”" Yang Qiu sneered, looked out the window with blank eyes and said, "I'm afraid that the days of Chinese films will not be good in the future." ”
