Chapter 185: Impact

After Jiang Ran talked to Liu Liwei about the tip of his tongue, he went on to mention to him that he would set up a film and television company in the United States and collaborate with Harvey Weinstein on the sequel to "Chainsaw". After finally sending Liu Liwei away, Jiang Ran finally cleared up and had time to deal with the official duties accumulated during this period of time.

In the afternoon, after Jiang Ran had almost processed the documents that should be processed, he came to Jiang Jianguo again, "Jianguo, Director Le told you about the video distribution and leasing business in the United States, right?"

Jiang Jianguo always looked so silent and serious, "Director Le told me about this in the morning, and I plan to communicate with Ah Chang tonight, actively cooperate with his work there, and establish the business there as soon as possible." ”

Jiang Ran was very satisfied with Jiang Jianguo's attitude towards things, nodded, and said, "Well, it's good that you are prepared here." In the future, when the business comes in, we must do a good job of mutual assistance between the two sides, and organically connect the businesses on both sides under the group's grand strategy, so as to form a joint force. ”

Jiang Ran called Jiang Jianguo mainly to tell him to establish a sound supervision and contact system at the beginning of the establishment of the American company, and not to make the American company free from the Ranfeng Group system because of the distance.

Next, Jiang Ran talked with Jiang Jianguo about the specific construction measures and ideas of the American company before sending him out.

On the first day Jiang Ran returned to Hong Kong for work, things kept happening. Before getting off work in the afternoon, Zhao Hongjun also found him every day.

"Mr. Jiang, I'm going to discuss something with you. Zhao Hongjun walked into Jiang Ran's office and greeted with a smile.

Jiang Ran waved his hand and asked him to sit down with a smile, "Mr. Zhao, what's the matter?"

Zhao Hongjun smiled a little flatteringly, rubbed his hands, and looked at Jiang Ran, "Mr. Jiang, I heard that the box office performance of "Chainsaw" in the United States is very gratifying, do you see if we can report it in "Tiantian Daily". ”

When Jiang Ran heard this, he glanced at Zhao Hongjun curiously, "It's good for you to make your own decisions about this matter." How did you find me here?"

Zhao Hongjun smiled bitterly and replied: "Isn't it that Jiang Wei and Director Gui, who are in charge of the distribution department, are not here now? I don't know if we report this now, will it affect the overall distribution of the film." I heard that the film hasn't been released in other parts of Asia, and it wouldn't be good if our coverage disrupted Mr. Jiang's distribution schedule. ”

Zhao Hongjun's Tiantian has had several media reports in the past that conflicted with the overall operation of Ranfeng Group, and now he has paid a lot of attention to this aspect.

After Jiang Ran listened to Zhao Hongjun's words, he remembered that the distribution department is not in charge now, isn't there no one in charge?

After thinking about it, Jiang Ran raised his head and said: "The results of "Chainsaw" in North America should exceed 10 million US dollars today and tomorrow, you can contact Jiang Wei, and wait for the box office to break 10 million, and then focus on reporting, so that the effect should be even more." ”

"That's okay, since Mr. Jiang thinks there is no problem, I will arrange someone to prepare it immediately. Another newsworthy scoop was in hand, and Zhao Hongjun was naturally happy.

Jiang Ran interrupted Zhao Hongjun's joy with a smile, "Mr. Zhao, what I told you some time ago about setting up a magazine under Tiantian, how are you preparing?"

After Zhao Hongjun listened to Jiang Ran's words, he felt a little apprehensive. Jiang Ran has been talking to him about this matter for a few months, although there are some actions on his side, but because of the benefits of the whole day and some other reasons, this matter is not progressing too fast in general.

Jiang Ran naturally knew Zhao Hongjun's progress in this matter, but the demand in front was not too urgent, so Jiang Ran followed Zhao Hongjun's steady rhythm and did not urge him. But now because of the project "Zombie Dao Chief", Jiang Ran has to speed up the development of magazine comics.

"Mr. Jiang, because we are not very well prepared in terms of manuscripts, we have not created a magazine for the time being, but we have now begun to open a special literary section for serialization, poetry and other literary topics. ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Hongjun said to Jiang Ran: "We are now receiving more and more manuscripts, and there are more and more authors, I believe that in the near future, we can support the operation of a professional magazine." ”

Jiang Ran was noncommittal when he heard this, and then asked, "What about comics? ”

"Mr. Jiang, now the whole Hong Kong comics are under the jurisdiction of the Yulang Group, and almost all of the comic talents are working for Huang Yulang, I have contacted some cartoonists of the Yulang Group, but they are not very confident in our new comic publications, and have not given me a clear answer. ”

Now Hong Kong's comics are completely Huang Yulang's world, he has almost no opponents in Hong Kong, and in the face of Tiantian's poaching, most people are not optimistic about Tiantian out of long-term interests.

Jiang Ran lowered his head and thought about it carefully, and said: "You can tell them that in the future film and television production of our Ranfeng Group, comics will be a very important library of film and television creation materials, and on our side, their works will have more opportunities to be developed in an all-round way." ”

"Although there is a certain risk, as one of the important film and television themes of Ranfeng Group in the future, comic adaptation plays an indispensable role in the entire group, and will be strongly supported by the group, and we are not afraid of pressure from Yulang Group. ”

Jiang Ran said this and glanced at Zhao Hongjun, "With such resources and a generous salary, I think there will always be people who are not willing to be lonely." It is also impossible for the Gyolang Group to give everyone a chance. ”

Zhao Hongjun knew that Jiang Ran was not satisfied with his work intensity, so he deliberately pointed out Ran Feng's advantages.

"Mr. Jiang, I know how to do it. ”

"Speed up! I have a project waiting to be fully developed. Liu Liwei should contact you later. Jiang Ran glanced at Zhao Hongjun lightly.

A day passed, and on the thirteenth, the release of "Saw Horror" in North America was published in the "Daily Daily".

"From the 28th of last month, as of the 12th of this month, the movie "Chainsaw" was released in North America for half a month, and the total box office exceeded 10 million US dollars. opened a new chapter in Hong Kong cinema. ”

"Daily Daily" used a lot of space in the entertainment section to report in detail on the release process of "Chainsaw" in North America, and also excerpted a large number of North American filmmakers' comments on this movie, which can be regarded as a slight justification of Jiang Ran's name in front of the public.

"Mr. Jiang, may I ask if the report on the success of "Chainsaw" in North America in the "Daily Daily" today is true?" Jiang Ran was at work in the morning when he was blocked by a reporter at the door of the company and asked.

Jiang Ran's footsteps stopped slightly, and then under the escort of his bodyguards, he said with a slow smile: "It's not a big hit, is it? Movies worth tens of millions of dollars abound in North America, and even many movies will surpass this achievement in the first weekend." ”

Facing reporters, Jiang Ran pretended to be a big 13.

After entering the company, Jiang Ran picked up the newspaper on the table and glanced at it slightly, then put down the newspaper and began to think about how to use the success of this movie in North America to distribute it abroad.

"Bell-bell"

Just as he was thinking about it, the phone on the table suddenly rang, "Hello! I'm Jiang Ran!"

"Ah Ran, I saw a report every day today, your "Chainsaw" won tens of millions of dollars at the box office in North America?"

"Sixth Uncle, why do you care about such a trivial matter?" Jiang Ran's words could not hide his smugness.

"Good boy, it seems that the report is true. I said how I didn't see you some time ago, it turned out that I went to the United States to make a lot of money. Although Shaw's words were hearty, the envy in his words could still be heard.

"What does the sixth uncle say, just to earn some hard-earned money. Jiang Ran said modestly.

"You kid got cheap and behaved. When do you have time to have afternoon tea together?" Run Run Shaw rarely took the initiative to invite Jiang Ran.

"Sixth Uncle summoned, I am free at any time. ”

When Jiang Ran Ran was on the phone with Run Run Shaw, the news of "Daily Daily" was still fermenting in the Hong Kong film industry. From this news, a few people saw the determination and potential of Ranfeng to develop the North American market.

There are more people who have opened up to Ran Feng's money power from the box office of tens of millions of dollars, and some people have seen the commercial ability of Jiang Ran, a young director.

……

The success of the low-budget film "Chainsaw" in North America has brought a great shock to Hong Kong filmmakers, and at the same time, it has also made many people intuitively feel the huge benefits of developing the North American market.
