Wang Jing promised to join LL Film Company after the expiration of the contract with Wireless and Shaw Brothers, which made Chen Lang very happy, the biggest goal tonight was achieved, and the rest was to continue to win people's hearts and strive to have his own team as soon as possible.

Soon, the members of the crew of "Happy Ghost" all came to the hotel, except for a few members who couldn't go to the appointment, everyone else sat at the wine table before eight o'clock.

"I believe you already know that our movie "Happy Ghost" has achieved a total of 17.15 million Hong Kong dollars at the box office in four weeks after its release, and today is a celebration banquet, first of all, a toast to us to be able to achieve the fourth place in the annual box office rankings, I can't drink, so I will toast everyone with tea instead of wine, dry!" Chen Lang stood up and said to everyone.

"Okay, cheers!" Everyone was also very happy when they heard that "Happy Ghost" was a big hit, which can be regarded as a solid qualification in future work.

At the same time, everyone has long heard that in addition to drinking and eating tonight, the little boss will also distribute red envelopes, and everyone is naturally very happy.

"The success of "Happy Ghost" is inseparable from everyone's unremitting efforts and sincere cooperation, and my LL Film Company will also start filming the company's second film in the near future, I still hope to be able to work with everyone, after all, we have a tacit understanding together, and the shooting is easier and smoother, and it would be better if we could continue to cooperate in the future." Chen Lang continued.

Everyone was moved when they heard this, and everyone understood what Chen Lang meant, this is to recruit everyone to join LL Film Company.

Everyone here is inevitably moved, because of the loss-making operation of Shaw Brothers for several years, coupled with the repeated impact of Golden Harvest and New Art City, it has long ceased to be the courage of the film kingdom.

After Fang Yihua became the director of Shaw Brothers Film Company, it was even more difficult to make films, not only was the film investment repeatedly compressed, but also the funds often did not arrive on time.

As for the treatment of the staff, food, etc., it has dropped again and again, and the shooting ideas and techniques of Shaw Brothers movies have really lagged behind a lot, so the films invested in are basically losing money.

Now Shaw Brothers has fallen into a vicious circle.

The film lost money, which led Fang Yihua to repeatedly reduce the investment cost, and the reduction of the investment cost made the film shoddy, which was too different from other film companies, so the box office was dismal, so a vicious circle was formed.

In addition to the deterioration of personal treatment, the company is also constantly reducing production, and many people have not started work for some time.

If you don't start work, you can't make money, and now even supporting your family has become a problem, and some people go out to take on private jobs in order to earn extra money, and it's okay not to be discovered, but if you find out, you won't even have a meager salary.

Therefore, the people of Shaw Brothers Film Company are now miserable and excited.

Now hearing Chen Lang's obvious intention to solicit, everyone naturally moved their minds.

Lang Lang's ability to write scripts has been affirmed by everyone, and Wang Jing, who has made few films but has almost no losses, should be a good combination to ensure that the film can at least make money.

And if the movie makes money, the company will definitely continue to make new movies, so everyone will have a job to do and get more wages.

What's more, Lang Lang is a very generous boss, as can be seen by watching the food of the crew of "Happy Ghost", and Lang Lang wrapping red envelopes for everyone before the movie starts.

Last year, when Chen Lang held the company's annual meeting, he spent a huge amount of 2 million Hong Kong dollars, which caused everyone to exclaim at that time, and everyone knew that the little genius was a generous master.

"It would be great to be able to work together again."

"We are also looking forward to working with LL Films."

"Is there a new movie? Count me in. ”

……

The members of the crew shouted one after another, after all, being able to start work means having money to get, of course, these are the marginal characters of the crew.

And things like cinematographers, producers, assistant directors, etc., did not speak, after all, their status is higher, but obviously they are also thinking about it, after all, everyone knows the situation of Shaw Brothers.

The Shaw Brothers films, which are constantly reducing production, obviously can't support so many people in the company, and everyone has to find a way back for themselves, and Chen Lang, who is generous, has a lot of financial resources and also belongs to the Shaw Brothers Group, is undoubtedly a good choice.

Chen Lang didn't expect him to be able to attract everyone at a celebration banquet, as long as a seed was planted, as the Shaw Brothers Film Company continued to decline, these people naturally had to find another way out for their own future.

The most important thing for Chen Lang now is to put on a polite and virtuous corporal posture, and at the same time give everyone enough benefits, I believe that he will definitely be able to attract enough personnel.

"Okay, if you are interested, you had better vacate the schedule after the New Year, the director is still our director Wang, I hope you can work together happily again, but before everyone eats, there is one more thing for you, that is, the red envelope I promised before the filming of "Happy Ghost" started."

After Chen Lang finished speaking, he motioned to his assistant Xu Fang to hand out the red envelope to everyone.

"Thank you, Lang Lang!"

"Lang Lang is the atmosphere!"

"It's so good, it's cool!"

……

The people who got the red envelope are naturally very happy, and the New Year is coming soon, and the salary and treatment of the Shaw Brothers are declining, and there are some IOUs in the days, and now it is undoubtedly a lot better to have this red envelope.

Chen Lang took out 1.5 million of the money earned from "Happy Ghost" this time, in addition to Wang Jing's 500,000 yuan, Chen Baixiang, Li Lizhen and other leading actors also gave 100,000 to 150,000 respectively.

As for the photography, producer, and assistant director, they are all between 50,000 and 100,000 yuan, and the others are relatively few, but at least 5,000 Hong Kong dollars, which is definitely comparable to everyone's salary for two or three months.

After everyone got the red envelope, they had to sigh that the little talent was really generous.

Tonight, there was not only a banquet to eat, but also a red envelope to take, and everyone was very happy, and it took more than two hours to eat.

When many people left, they assured Chen Lang that they would definitely join the crew when the new drama of LL Film Company started filming, and Chen Lang naturally agreed with a smile.

After the banquet ended, it was already half past ten in the evening, and Wang Jing came over at this time, "Did all the money earned from "Happy Ghost" spill out?" ”

"Well, I earned a total of 2.23 million Hong Kong dollars, basically even if it's gone, it's a loss to have my own theater, so I must have my own theater." Chen Lang shook his head and sighed.

Wang Jing's heart moved when she heard Chen Lang's words, but in the end she didn't say anything and left.

Early the next morning, Chen Lang received a call from Manager Liu after returning from workout.

"Lang Lang, "Ghost Blowing the Lantern 2" is almost over, do you still have a new novel? The Oriental Daily is in a hurry to get a new novel. Manager Liu asked with a smile.

Chen Lang has been busy with records and movies, and he has to go to school in the seventh year of secondary school, so he has no time to write new novels.

In the end, after the end of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", I had to take out "Ghost Blowing the Lantern 2", although the quality has decreased compared to "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", but with the super popularity of the first part, the sales of "Oriental Daily" have not declined.

But now that even "Ghost Blows the Lantern 2" is almost over, Chen Lang seems to have to open a new book.

"I've been busy in the last few months, and I don't have time to write a new novel, but I have a few good ideas in my head, and I'll start writing when I have nothing to do lately, and I'll hand over the first volume of the new novel to Oriental Daily as soon as possible."

Chen Lang frowned, movies and records occupy most of his time, and he has to enroll again in September this year, and I am afraid that there will be no more time at that time.

"What type of new novel? Can you tell us about it first? Manager Liu asked excitedly when he heard this.

"I haven't figured out what to write yet, but it will be after the Chinese New Year at the earliest." Chen Lang really didn't think about the new novel, so he could only prevaricate first.

"That's it, then I'll tell you about it, and I'm looking forward to your latest masterpiece." Manager Liu said.

"Rest assured, you will be the first reader of the new novel." Chen Lang hung up the phone after speaking.

Chen Lang had just hung up the phone and was about to eat, when the phone rang again.

"Hey, I'm Chen Lang."

"Lang Lang, I'm your Sister Chen, the preparations for the LL record company have almost been carried out, what I want to ask now is where is our office location?"

"That's the case, Sister Chen, because I will continue to use money next year, I temporarily rented an office building for LL Records." Chen Lang said with some embarrassment.

"Need money urgently next year?" Chen Shufen was puzzled when she heard this.

As Chen Lang's agent, Chen Shufen still knows Chen Lang's general financial situation, although she doesn't know it in detail, but Chen Shufen knows that Chen Lang's net worth is definitely over 100 million.

Chen Lang didn't buy a building for LL Records as an office location now because he was in urgent need of money, and Chen Shufen, who roughly knew Chen Lang's net worth, was shocked when she thought of this, 100 million is not enough?

"I want to buy a cinema chain." Chen Lang didn't hide it, but he didn't say which theater it was.

"Buying a theater chain?" Chen Shufen was really shocked this time.

Although he had long known that Chen Lang opened a film company not for fun, but really wanted to make a career, but he didn't expect LL Films to shoot a movie, and Chen Lang thought about buying a theater chain.

And this cinema chain is definitely not a small cinema chain, it must be one of the four major cinema chains in Hong Kong.

Chen Shufen used her brain to think about it a little to know which theater it was, and if she wanted to complete the acquisition, she really needed more than 100 million funds.

"Yes, it's not a small fight for me to open a film company, and I think music and film can be combined together, and I believe that each other can play a role in promoting each other." Chen Lang said.

"If both have a certain influence, the combination of the two can indeed produce the effect of 1+1 greater than 2." Chen Shufen nodded.

"That's what I want."

"Okay, as long as there's an office location." Chen Shufen secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "By the way, Huaxing seems to have contacted Luo Wen, and Luo Wen will join Hua Xing soon, it seems that he has not been able to renew his contract with you, and Hua Xing is also making preparations." ”

"Rowan joins Huaxing?" Chen Lang was stunned when he heard this.

In the end, Huaxing, backed by wireless, also has the hematopoietic machine of the rookie singing contest, and does have the ability to attract big-name singers, and also has the confidence to dominate the music scene.

After ending the phone call with Chen Shufen, Chen Lang began to think about what to write about his latest novel.

And after a few days of rest, it was soon January 28th.

The much-anticipated first Top Ten Golden Melody Awards Ceremony is also officially coming.
