Chapter 645: Cooperation
Under the leadership of He Jiong, the group took a car to a private club. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
In order to avoid being discovered by reporters, they changed into civilian clothes and kept a low profile.
Because of the greeting in advance and the service staff greet you at the door, this kind of private clubhouse is available in every big city, also called clubs, and generally has a membership system.
The clubhouse has a variety of functions, such as dining and entertainment, as well as business activities and networking.
In Beijing, there are more than 1,000 private clubs, large and small.
At first, it was formed by Hong Kong and foreign investors to provide a place for members to have fun and entertainment, and later the wealthy people in China also formed various clubs.
The interior of the club is luxurious, the consumption is high, the privacy is emphasized, and the requirements for members are strict.
For example, the Chang'an Club, which was established by Hong Kong businessmen in '93, requires members to be between 45 and 55 years old, to be the number one leader of the enterprise, and to have assets of more than 50 million yuan.
The mid-to-late nineties was a period of rapid development of the clubhouse.
With the formation of the wealthy class in China, ordinary entertainment activities can not meet their needs, and clubs have come into being, and there are more and more clubs, which will inevitably be uneven, and all kinds of chaos will breed.
Lin Zixuan has received many invitations from clubs, and he is not very interested.
When it comes to privacy, it's best to have your own place.
He and Feng Xiaogang and others partnered to open a restaurant, the first floor is open, and the second floor is where they often meet, drink tea and chat, and build various entertainment facilities.
This restaurant is quite famous in the entertainment industry, and Lin Zixuan sometimes uses it to entertain guests.
As for business communication and expanding contacts, he doesn't care too much.
The showbiz is a relatively closed circle, and Lin Zixuan is wary of foreign capital.
This is the reason why Good Dream Company does not accept capital injection from outsiders.
Lin Zixuan needs to ensure that the company's operation is not disturbed, otherwise with the excellent performance of Haomeng Company, a large number of investors want to invest in it.
It was close to eleven o'clock at night, and there were not many people in the clubhouse, so the group found a spacious room.
Drinks, beverages and snacks were brought in by the service staff, and everyone raised their glasses to congratulate those who won the awards.
After a while, everyone is free to move, you can eat, you can go out, or sit down to chat.
After a while, Liu Dehua and his assistant rushed over.
Although the Golden Oriole Festival has ended, there are still many reporters, and Liu Dehua is the focus of reporters.
In terms of how to get rid of reporters, Liu Dehua has rich experience, and the paparazzi in Xiangjiang are even crazier than the entertainment reporters in the mainland, and the stars in Xiangjiang are used to it.
Feng Xiaogang introduced the personnel of Haomeng Company to Liu Dehua one by one.
There are many actors from the company gathered here.
There are not only internationally renowned actors like Yu Feihong and Xu Jinglei, but also famous TV drama actors like Zhang Jiayi, as well as newcomer actors like Liu Tao and Huang Xiaoming.
Coupled with Zhang Guoli and Xu Fan, even in the Beijing entertainment industry, it is quite weighty.
Liu Dehua didn't expect Feng Xiaogang to invite him, there is a circle culture in various places, and this introduction is equivalent to integrating into Lin Zixuan's circle.
Although his fame does not necessarily have to be good friends with Lin Zixuan's gang, there is no harm in it.
Liu Dehua is not only an actor, but also the owner of a film company, and has plans to develop in the mainland.
He set up a film and television company in 91 and invested in many films, but he was unlucky, and by 95 years, the company lost more than 40 million Hong Kong dollars.
He lacked experience in investing in the early days, thinking that big directors and big stars could make money by big productions.
It turns out that the bigger the investment, the greater the risk.
The films he invested in were not like Cheng Long's films that could enter the American market and be released in the mainland, and it was difficult to recover the funds by relying on the box office of Xiangjiang alone, which was the main reason for the loss of money.
In recent years, Liu Dehua has received a large number of film contracts to make up for the company's losses.
It can be seen that the life of the king of heaven is not easy either.
However, the tuition fee was not paid in vain, which made Liu Dehua realize that it is not a blockbuster that can make a lot of money, but also to consider the market, and the market is the decisive factor in whether a drama can make money.
After the Asian financial crisis in '97, the film market in Hong Kong shrank, and the mainland market became a new choice.
If they want to enter the mainland, they need a partner, and Good Dream Company has entered the attention of Xiangjiang filmmakers in this way, but it has only been taken seriously after the success of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon".
It is not difficult to find that the return on the films invested by the company is high, and the types of films produced are wide.
There are not only Feng Xiaogang's New Year comedies, but also main theme movies and literary films, as well as a number of hit TV series.
is also the owner of a film company, and he lost money by investing himself, but the good dream company has been making money.
The gap is a bit big.
After Feng Xiaogang finished the introduction, everyone sat down to drink and chat.
"It's good that we met earlier, I'm working on a martial arts movie, and the main actors have been decided, it's a pity, or we can work together." Feng Xiaogang said regretfully.
"It would be nice to have the opportunity to work together next time. Liu Dehua responded.
"That's okay, that's it, I'll find a good book when I go back, and we'll study it. Feng Xiaogang said simply.
It's a scene, and there are various factors to consider when making a movie.
Whether the role is suitable for Liu Dehua to play, whether the salary can be negotiated, whether there is a schedule, etc.
This is more about deepening the relationship, and the cooperation will be talked about later when the right opportunity arises.
"The current market situation is not good, the boss is unwilling to invest money, he can't start work, and the box office is supported by a few stars. When it comes to the film industry in Xiangjiang, Liu Dehua sighed.
Liu Dehua just won the Academy Award for Best Actor, and his salary in Xiangjiang is seven or eight million Hong Kong dollars, so he doesn't have to worry about no movies.
He was worried about the future of Hong Kong films.
"There is still a lot of room for Hong Kong films, and the combination of novel ideas and sophisticated production, as well as the superb performances of the actors, should be able to attract audiences to the theater. Lin Zixuan said.
Xiangjiang movies are shoddy and follow the trend seriously, which is one of the reasons for its decline.
"What does Mr. Lin think?" Liu Dehua said curiously.
Lin Zixuan is not only the owner of the film company, but also a writer and screenwriter, and won the Best Screenplay Award at the Golden Horse Awards.
"I'll just talk about it casually, for example, police and gang films, you can combine the two, the police put undercover agents in the gang, and the gang planted undercover agents in the police, and the two undercover agents are like chess pieces, involuntarily, living in dual identities. Lin Zixuan recounted, "They fought wits and courage in order to find each other, and this kind of story will feel interesting." ”
"It's a little, it's different from the general gang films, and it's not a police movie, this is the rivalry and inner drama of two people. Feng Xiaogang pondered.
"If Boss Liu thinks it's good, let's work together and get a script out, I'm willing to invest, and Boss Liu will pave the way in Xiangjiang." Lin Zixuan proposed.
