Chapter 453: The Heroes Rise Together (Part II)
…
Knowing that Zeng Zhiwei had released his suspicions with Xu Cunbing, Huang Yuwolf immediately decided to invest money in Zeng Zhiwei and Zeng Zhiwei to form a film company. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Two days later, Zeng Zhiwei found Tan Yonglin and Teddy Robin again and established the 'Good Friends Film Company'.
In addition, Good Friends Film Company has also become a strategic partner with scholars from Taiwan and Debao Cinemas, which is suffering from no films to be released.
Zeng Zhiwei, Tan Yonglin, Teddy Robin, and the topaz wolf behind him have all hesitated to become a strategic partner with Debao Cinema Line - after all, the blocking order issued by Xu Cun is still in effect.
Later, after repeated discussions with several leaders of Good Friends Film Company, they finally decided to temporarily form a strategic partnership with Debao Cinemas.
There are several reasons why Good Friends Films made this decision:
First, the conditions given by Debao, who is in short supply, are so superior that it is difficult for several masters of the Good Friends Film Company to refuse.
Second, the blocking order issued by Xu Cun was aimed at Cen Jianxun and Zhang Jianyan, not against Debao, and several leaders of the Good Friends Film Company believed that as long as they did not have anything to do with Cen Jianxun and Zhang Jianyan, it would not be considered a violation of Xu Cun's blocking order.
Third, several leaders of Good Friends Film Company have also formulated a backup strategy - once there is a storm, Good Friends Film Company will immediately abandon Debao Cinemas and cooperate with Liberty Cinemas.
Fourth, the film company that cooperates with Debao Cinema is not only their good friend film company, but also the Yongsheng film company of the Xiang brothers.
……
Yongsheng Film Company.
Xiang Huasheng looked at Wang Yingxiang, the boss of Longxiang Film Company, and said gloomily: "Lao Wang, you are a senior on the road, don't you know that stepping on the line will not end well?" ”
Whether it is in the film industry or on the Taiwan bend, Wang Yingxiang is a big man second to none. Therefore, no one in Taiwan dared to call Wang Yingxiang 'Lao Wang', and no one dared to talk to Wang Yingxiang like this.
It's a pity -
This place is Xiangjiang, not Taiwan, and Xiang Huasheng thinks that he has a reason -- some time ago, Wang Yingxiang registered a film production company called "Longtai Film Company" in Xiangjiang, and produced a movie "Love Meets Rivals" to test the waters, but Longtai's "Love Rivals" collided with Yongsheng's "Big and Small Bad", and "Love and Opponents" and "Big and Small Bad" grabbed the DreamWorks theaters. The matter was quite big at the time, and later Xu Cun personally came forward to divide the DreamWorks cinema line into two and lend half of each of Yongsheng and Longtai cinema lines, which can be regarded as calming the matter. However, the incident was calmed down, but the Xiang brothers did not forget Wang Yingxiang's enmity with them for robbing the theater.
Wang Yingxiang said with a smile: "Eating alone is called 'stepping on the line', and making money together is called 'win-win'." ”
Xiang Huasheng pressed his glasses and said, "Lao Wang, you have something to say, hurry up, let's talk if we can, if we can't talk, let's go to the side!" ”
Wang Yingxiang is not the kind of person who likes to beat around the bush, so he said directly: "Relying on Xu Cun to help you Yongsheng direct "God of Gamblers", you Yongsheng can also be regarded as establishing an overseas distribution channel, but your Yongsheng's distribution channel can only be regarded as a second-rate distribution channel, and you can't sell the movies you worked hard to make at a good price, why don't we cooperate, I will invest and be responsible for the distribution in Taiwan and Nanyang, you only need to pay money and people, as for the distribution in Xiangjiang, Golden Princess Cinemas and Debao Cinemas are willing to screen all the films we cooperate. ”
After listening to Wang Yingxiang's proposal, Xiang Huasheng's eyes narrowed slightly, and said, "Longxiang and Xinyicheng and Debao are also strategic partners?" ”
Wang Yingxiang said very shamefully: "Don't you know that the movies of Xinyicheng have always been distributed by Long Xiang in Taiwan? ”
Xiang Huasheng asked again: "What about Debao?" ”
Wang Yingxiang continued to reply very honorably: "I just signed an agency contract with Pan Disheng, and in the future, Debao's overseas distribution rights will also belong to Longxiang. ”
Xiang Huasheng said noncommittally: "Long Xiang's appetite is not small, he has acted as an agent for the movies of Xinyicheng and Debao, and he has to fight our Yongsheng idea!" ”
Wang Yingxiang said with a smile: "Acting separately can always be a rabble, and only by working together to form an alliance can we carry out online screenings, jointly control ticket prices, and make more money." ”
Xiang Huasheng said meaningfully: "The alliance has to have a leader, right?" ”
Wang Yingxiang retreated and said: "How about Yongsheng as the leader?" ”
As soon as Wang Yingxiang said this, Xiang Huasheng was suddenly speechless - whether it is Xinyicheng and Debao, or Yongsheng, they all have to rely on Long Xiang, who can eat both black and white dishes in Taiwan and holds the seventh cinema line in Taiwan, so Yongsheng cannot replace Long Xiang as the leader of this alliance anyway.
In addition to talking about interests, people on the road are talking about face, how can Wang Yingxiang, who also wants to cooperate with Xiang Huasheng, not come to the stage?
Wang Yingxiang said again: "I heard that Yongsheng is going to open a cult movie called "Magic Jade"? Let's start with it, how about it? The so-called cult movies refer to films with unique shooting techniques, strange themes, biased swords, abnormal styles, strong personal opinions, and controversial films.
Just like Wang Yingxiang said, Yongsheng also has overseas distribution channels, but Yongsheng's overseas distribution channels can only be regarded as second-rate or even third-rate distribution channels, and they have to be peeled layer by layer in the middle, and most importantly, they can't release the box office potential of Yongsheng's films, so that Yongsheng can't make the money it should make. Therefore, deep down in his heart, Xiang Huasheng is inclined to cooperate with Wang Yingxiang.
Therefore, after thinking about it for a while, Xiang Huasheng said: "Who to cooperate with is not cooperation?" As long as we can make Yongsheng money, we Yongsheng must be the most determined member of this alliance! ”
……
Leaving Yongsheng Film Company, Wang Yingxiang looked back at Yongsheng's sign and sighed: "Hey! If Xu Cun can enter the Taiwan Film Market, I will work hard to cooperate with you rabble? Damn politics! ”
……
At the same time as good friends and Yongsheng arose:
McDonald's film studio, McDonald's Bear, ushered in a powerful partner, Xiao Ruoyuan, known as "Xiao Caizi". Since then, the McDonald Bear Film Studio, which has been silent for a long time under Golden Harvest, is finally about to embark on the road of rapid development.
Youhe Film Company - Different from the previous life, because Zhang Jianyan was banned by Xu Cun, Chen You did not form Eryou Film Company with Zhang Jianyan in this life, but founded Youhe Film Company alone, becoming one of Golden Harvest's satellite companies.
Li Xiuxian's Universal Pictures Co., Ltd. -- Li Xiuxian, who had been tepid under DreamWorks Pictures for many years, established Universal Pictures Co., Ltd. with the support of Lei Juekun and embarked on a road of self-financing.
Choreographer & Directing & Production Agency - Just by listening to the name, you know that Choreographer & Directing & Production Agency is not aimed at mass market filming, in fact, Shum Jianxun's original intention is to be an independent production company specializing in making writers' films. Of course, the reason why Cen Jianxun is like this is also a helpless move, he has helped Pan Disheng to take charge of Debao for more than two years, and made Pan Disheng lose one or two hundred million Hong Kong dollars, how can he be embarrassed to harm Pan Disheng again? In addition, Shum Jianxun, who has always regarded himself as an artist, also wants to make some literary films, so Shum Jianxun teamed up with his close friend Chen Guanzhong to form a choreographer and director production company, which is under the name of Debao and is responsible for his own profits and losses.
All in all, since mid-1986, a large number of film companies have emerged in Hong Kong, and most of these film companies have the support of the Taiwan consortium.
