Seeing that Wang Tianlin couldn't ask anything here, Yang Qiu also closed his mouth with grace.

The release task of "Funny Times" is now the top priority of Golden Harvest, and it is good to have a little hope of good.

I just don't know what the hell is Jin Guo doing for letting them spend so long here?

"Hahaha, which of you is Mr. Yang Qiuyang? I'm sorry, I'm slacking!"

When the three of them were stunned, they saw two men, one old and one young, suddenly walking from upstairs, among them, the old one, laughed loudly when he saw the three people at the door, and then walked straight towards Yang Qiu.

Thinking that Guy was the only one of the three of them Yang Qiu who was the most photogenic.

"Hello, the contemptible person is Yang Qiu. Yang Qiu frowned suspiciously, but still greeted him and said, "I don't know who you are?"

The young man next to the old man hurriedly said, "This is Mr. Guan Jiabai, the boss of the Jin Kingdom. ”

Yang Qiu suddenly realized, stretched out his hand and said with a smile: "Boss Guan, look up for a long time." ”

"Eh, Mr. Yang, it should be that I have admired you for a long time. Guan Jiabai held Yang Qiu's hand and patted it with a smile.

"Don't dare to be a ......"

"Director Yang, hello, I am Guan Zhicheng, the manager of Dacheng Pictures. The young man saw that his father had already met Yang Qiu, so he turned his head and introduced himself.

"Hello Manager Guan...... Forehead...... I don't know what the relationship between you and Manager Guan Zhigang is......"

"That's my second brother. ”

"Oh——!" Yang Qiu sighed and complimented: "It turned out to be the boss of Xiaoguan, disrespectful and disrespectful." ”

"How dare you. ”

Looking at Yang Qiu and his son greeting, Guan Jiabai said on the side: "Boss Yang, just now we have some internal matters to deal with in Jinguo, and we have been careless in hospitality, please forgive me." ”

"Out of the way, out of the way. ”

"That's right, Boss Yang. Guan Jiabai suddenly paused, looked at Yang Qiu and said: "I heard my second son say that you made a "Funny Times" is very interesting, can I take a look?"

“……”

What the hell is this Guan Zhigang doing?

Yang Qiu is now full of doubts, this guy called them over, but he disappeared, and now he has thrown his father over to watch the movie.

Tricks......

However, obviously Guan Jiabai didn't have the intention of teasing people, seeing that the big guy asked seriously, Yang Qiu had to nod and say, "Yes, yes." ”

Guan Jiabai was overjoyed when he heard this, and while waving his finger to the test room, he laughed and said: "Haha, then let's go in first, and talk while watching, please!"

"Please!"

Although he was a little puzzled by Guan Jiabai, a big boss in charge of the company, who came over to personally review the movie, Yang Qiu still accompanied them to watch this movie again.

Although it was released thirty years in advance, it was still very successful in this era as a classic comedy imitating Chaplin.

From the beginning of the film, Mr. Guan's non-stop laughter can prove it.

"Hahaha-"

Looking at the screen, the detective played by Cao Dahua and a mute prisoner for a long time, Guan Jiabai couldn't help but laugh again, and said: "I didn't expect this Cao Dahua to have a bit of comedy talent." ”

Speaking of which, Inspector Cao's acting ability is still very good. Yang Qiu said beside him.

"Inspector Cao?"

"Well, that's the nickname we gave him when we made the movie. ”

"That's a good nickname. Guan Jiabai nodded casually, and said: "Boss Yang, your movie is really good, it is our honor to be released in our country." ”

"Forehead ......"

Yang Qiu hesitated a little and continued: "I also hope that this film can be released in Jinguo, but your bottom fee is too high, and we really can't afford to pay it." ”

"High?" Guan Jiabai was stunned for a moment, and said suspiciously: "The bottom fee of our Jin Kingdom is among the four major theater chains, which can be regarded as the bottom, how can you say that it is high?"

Guan Zhicheng just said on the side: "By the way, Director Yang, do you have any misunderstanding?"

"Misunderstanding?!" Yang Qiu smiled bitterly: "I really can't afford the 600 base fee for this theater a day." ”

"Six hundred?!"

Guan Jiabai's expression was stunned, and he asked in amazement: "Even if we have the best Jinguo theater in Jinguo, it only costs four hundred a day, how did it come to six hundred?"

Yang Qiu was also at a loss at this time, and couldn't guess what the old and young man on the other side were selling, and explained: "Four hundred? Yesterday, the manager of the theater said six hundred. ”

"Manager Guan?" Guan Jiabai's head was a little confused for a while.

Guan Zhicheng, who was still young, had a quick brain, and whispered in his father's ear: "Dad, it's the second brother." ”

“……”

Guan Jiabai suddenly felt a surge of hot blood surging up his throat, patted the armrest of the seat and scolded: "That idiot who doesn't learn and doesn't know how to learn!

Yang Qiu was taken aback by this, but he also vaguely guessed a cause and effect, but this was obviously someone else's family matter, so it was not easy to intervene.

Guan Zhicheng, who was sitting next to his father, immediately patted his father's back, gave him relief, and gave Yang Qiu an apologetic smile by the way.

"Dad, you take your breath. ”

"This stinky boy, the reputation of the Jin Kingdom was ruined by him like this. ”

"Dad, I think the second brother may have some unavoidable reasons. ”

"What other reason can there be!" Guan Jiabai's eyes widened, and he said angrily: "I really can't think of any other reason besides eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling." ”

“……”

"That idiot, no, sooner or later something will happen to Jin Guo if he is so troubled. Guan Jiabai waved his hand, suddenly looked at Guan Zhicheng and said: "From today on, the theater line is under your control, you take good care of me, don't let your second brother do it again." ”

"This ......" Guan Zhicheng had a trace of doubt, and hesitated: "Do it like this, second brother, I'm afraid it won't be easy to explain." ”

Guan Jiabai's face turned red, and he said angrily: "Explain what! My words are to explain, if he is not satisfied, let him get out of the Guan family!"

“……”

Seeing that a scene of grievances from a wealthy family was being staged in front of him, although Yang Qiu had already seen it, he was still a little embarrassed and uncomfortable.

After Guan Jiabai's anger dissipated, he calmed down, and then turned his head to look at Yang Qiu and said: "The unfilial son in the family is doing evil, but it is difficult for Boss Yang, so you can laugh." ”

“……”

It was not easy to accept this, and Yang Qiu had to chuckle in embarrassment.

Guan Jiabai obviously didn't care, thought for a while and paused: "As an apology, let's do it, Boss Yang, as long as your drama is released in our theaters, the bottom fee will be 300." ”

"This ......"

Yang Qiu was overjoyed, this is great news, the six theaters are three hundred a day, and the seven-day package fee is only less than 13,000.

It's a lot cheaper than expected.

Seeing that Yang Qiu was so surprised that he forgot to reply, Guan Jiabai frowned slightly and said, "If Boss Yang is not satisfied, we can still discuss." ”

"No, no, no, it's okay. Yang Qiu came back to his senses and hurriedly said: "Satisfied, satisfied, I am very satisfied with the discount given by Boss Guan." ”

"Dad, I have another suggestion. At this time, Guan Zhicheng, who was next to him, suddenly interjected.

Guan Jiabai's mind turned away, looked at his son and asked, "What suggestions?"

Guan Zhicheng didn't look at his father, but looked at Yang Qiu and said, "Director Yang, do you know about selling films?"

Yang Qiu was a little puzzled, but still nodded.

Selling flowers is a common routine in making movies, and it was also particularly popular in the golden 80s of Hong Kong.

To put it simply, before the film starts shooting, when there is only a script and an actor contract, the crew begins to sell the distribution rights of the film to various distributors, collects a certain amount of money, and then turns around and goes back to start filming the film again.

After the film is filmed and released, this part of the funds will be deducted from the income of the film.

This method works well, especially for the kind of poor crew who have no money to make films.

However, this routine obviously has one condition, that is, there is no famous actor in the actor's contract, who will buy your film first?

Obviously, the publisher's money is not blown by the wind, at least he has to give him a little bottom.

Guan Zhicheng is talking about selling film flowers here, obviously after two movies, he has seen a little bit of Yang Qiu's ability.

I saw him continue: "Our Jin Country, although it is not as good as the Shaw Brothers to buy out all of them directly, but the money spent on buying a piece is still affordable, and to be honest, it is not the first time we have bought a piece." ”

Guan Zhicheng continued with a smile: "In the past, Zhili and Dalian, who made Cantonese films, we also bought films, and the two sides also cooperated very well, so now, I wonder if we can deepen our cooperation a little." ”

Yang Qiu's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "I don't know what kind of cooperation method Boss Guan wants?"
