Chapter 132: Gathering Clouds [Asking for a Monthly Pass]
The door of the office clicked shut, and Pan Disheng turned his head to look at Cheng Meirong and Feng Binzhong, "What do you two have to say, can you say it now?" ”
Cheng Meirong and Feng Binzhong quickly exchanged glances, and Cheng Meirong opened his mouth first, "I heard that Mr. Pan intends to rent the Shaw Brothers Cinema Line, but he was sabotaged halfway?" ”
Pan Disheng's face tightened suddenly, "Didn't you two come to see my jokes?" ”
Cheng Meirong saw Pan Disheng's angry expression when he heard these words, and knew that they had come to the right place this time.
Cheng Meirong didn't explain, and Feng Binzhong, who was sitting next to him, hurriedly waved his hand, "Mr. Pan, don't misunderstand, in fact, we are also victims." ”
Pan Disheng kept his face calm and did not speak, but he couldn't help but start to doubt the motives and intentions of these two people.
Cheng Meirong shook his head and sighed again, "Mr. Pan doesn't know, that Lin Youlun snatched the Shaw Brothers Cinema Line from you before, and now he is planning to annex the Golden Princess Cinema Line, Boss Lei is also dizzy, and he is actually willing to give up sixty percent of the shares to Lin Youlun." ”
Pan Disheng's face was gloomy as if he could wring out water, Lin Youlun took over the Shaw Brothers Cinema Line, and Debao was already at a disadvantage, if he was asked to swallow the Golden Princess again, it would be more difficult to check and balance.
"The two of them also have shares in Princess Jin, didn't they persuade Boss Lei?" Pan Disheng asked quietly.
Feng Binzhong sighed on the side and said, "Lei Juekun wants to promote the merger of the Golden Princess Cinema Line and the Shaw Brothers Cinema Line, and Mr. Pan thinks he doesn't have his own calculations? Lei Juekun has long seen that our two shareholders are not pleasing to the eye, if the new company is established. My shares with Boss Cheng will definitely be diluted, and it can basically be regarded as kicking Lei Juekun out. ”
Cheng Meirong also vomited bitterness: "When we were brought into the gang, we said it well, but now we have reversed our word and turned our faces and didn't recognize people." I can see the true face of Lei Juekun. ”
From the grievances of the two singing and harmonizing, Pan Disheng finally heard some flavor.
Lei Juekun advocated the merger of Princess Jin and Shaw Brothers Cinemas, but there was no position for Cheng Meirong and Feng Binzhong in the new company, of course Cheng Meirong and Feng Binzhong were unwilling, but Lei Juekun was the major shareholder, and he had the final say in everything in the company. Cheng Meirong and Feng Binzhong were cornered, so they hit Debao with their ideas.
"I don't have a relationship with Boss Lei, do you still expect me to convince him?"
Cheng Meirong shook her head. "Lei Juekun is bent on going his own way, he did the first year of junior high school, don't blame me for being fifteen!"
Pan Disheng raised his eyebrows, "So the two of you have other plans?" ”
Feng Binzhong said: "I just want to ask Mr. Pan. Do you want to forget about it? ”
Pan Disheng's eyebrows were twisted together, his face was as gloomy as dusk, and he said hatefully: "The Shaw Brothers Cinema has arrived in Lin Youlun's hands, and according to the two of them, Princess Jin is about to become his bag." Debao Company doesn't have a theater in hand, so what can I do to fight with him? ”
Cheng Meirong smiled mysteriously, "Mr. Pan is wrong to think so, Hong Kong is not only the Golden Princess and Shaw Brothers two theaters. ”
Pan Disheng sneered: "Jiahe and Lin Youlun have always worn a pair of pants. Expecting Zou Wenhuai to fight against Lin Youlun is tantamount to an idiot's dream. ”
"The Hong Kong film market is so busy. Does Mr. Pan think that only three major cinema chains can fully meet the market demand? Feng Binzhong interjected at the right time.
Pan Disheng's eyebrows tightened, and he seriously thought about the deep meaning of Feng Binzhong's words.
"The two of them are planning to be outside the three major theater chains. Starting a new cinema chain? ”
Cheng Meirong and Feng Binzhong glanced at each other, with a satisfied look in their eyes.
"Mr. Pan is really a smart person, so we won't hide it anymore." Cheng Meirong directly made it clear and said: "Boss Feng and I are going to set up a new cinema chain, and we want to invite Mr. Pan to join us and do a business together." ”
"You two are thinking too easily, right?" Pan Disheng frowned, and his two eyebrows were bent into a "figure eight".
Getting the Shaw Brothers Cinemas only made Lin Youlun feel like a tiger, but what he really is powerful about is not that he has a cinema in his hands, but that he has a keen sense of smell in the film market, and the film department in his hand is a blockbuster, which is why Princess Jin and Golden Harvest are doing everything possible to get closer to him. The establishment of a new cinema chain is a challenge to the existing pattern, and it will inevitably be strongly counterattacked by other cinema chains. At the beginning of the establishment of Princess Jin, she was sniped by the Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest, if it weren't for the sudden rise of the New Art City, the Golden Princess might have been killed by Golden Harvest and the Shaw Brothers.
…,
Now the pattern of the Hong Kong film industry is more encrypted and impermeable than when Princess Jin was founded, Lin Youlun and Zou Wenhuai joined forces, not to mention covering the sky in the Hong Kong film industry, but it was easy to overwhelm the new cinema line.
"Princess Jin can rely on Xinyi City to break the game, it is really more luck than strength. Although there are many talents in the Hong Kong film industry, they can't make movies that can surpass Lin Youlun's works, so what can they do to compete with Lin Youlun? ”
"Mr. Pan said this to increase his popularity and destroy his own prestige." Feng Binzhong disagreed: ""Legend of the Night" is nothing more than a big production and big investment, and there is no shortage of talents in Mr. Pan's Debao company, as for the problem of funds, we can help you solve it." ”
Seeing that Pan Disheng was not willing to believe it, Cheng Meirong added: "In fact, Boss Feng and I are just acting as an 'intermediary', and there are other people who provide investment. ”
The Hong Kong film market is booming, the box office in other cities far exceeds the local income of Hong Kong, and businessmen in Taiwan, Southeast Asia and other places are willing to invest in Hong Kong films to make greater profits, but because the three major cinema chains dominate the Hong Kong film industry, although foreign capital can occasionally invest in Hong Kong films, they cannot get the prime time of the cinema chain and the starring role of popular movie stars. Cheng Meirong and Feng Binzhong saw this point and wanted to set up a new cinema chain independent of the three major cinema chains, specifically acting as an "intermediary" between foreign capital and Hong Kong independent production companies.
As soon as they said this, Pan Disheng was also a little moved.
——
On the way to the Peninsula Hotel by car, Zou Wenhuai chatted with He Guanchang about the recent turmoil in the foreign exchange market.
"How much money did you say Lin Youlun made in the foreign exchange market?"
"Using the exchange rate leverage tool, it is possible to make a profit from several times to dozens of times, and I think he can at least double the money in his hand this time!" He Guanchang can only guess a rough idea, how much he earned, only Lin Youlun himself knows.
"Integrating the three major cinema chains in one fell swoop, if it weren't for making enough capital in the foreign exchange market, where do you say he got the confidence?" Zou Wenhuai's eyes were squeezed into a thin slit, and when he spoke, his face was slightly tilted upward, and his waist was very straight.
"It's really an unprecedented generosity, it's really made for him, but it's very good for Hong Kong movies!" He Guanchang's two eyebrows were dark and thick, but his tone was a little uncontrollable excited. Golden Harvest Films' well-made films, coupled with a flexible independent production system, will definitely make box office receipts even higher if they can be released in three theaters at the same time.
"But have you ever thought that after we lose absolute control over the cinema chain, those film companies that used to hang under the name of Golden Harvest will definitely have different ideas in their hearts, and when the time comes, they will bring in investment from other places, and the movies they make can be released in theaters, which is a serious challenge for us."
"After the unification of the theater chain, the independent film companies actually have no choice than before, unless they follow the path of Lin Youlun, but Lin Youlun will not be too interested in those films that are generally invested, so they can only come to Golden Harvest, Golden Princess or Shaw Brothers, the three of us have a stake in the United Cinema Line, and other companies want to arrange a good schedule, how can it be so easy?"
Golden Harvest has decided to shift the company's development focus to the shooting of large-scale films, aiming at overseas markets, the previous three cinema chains were full of contradictions, Golden Harvest's footsteps into the international arena have not been able to start, that is, in the Hong Kong market by competitors dragged back, Lin Youlun as a collaborator acceptable to the three cinema chains, by his control of Hong Kong cinemas, is equivalent to creating a solid rear for Golden Harvest. Golden Harvest has emerged from the fierce competition in the Hong Kong market and has been able to expand its strength in overseas markets.
Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang got out of the car at the door of the hotel, and as soon as the car that saw them off left, another car came immediately.
Lei Juekun poked his head out of the car window, and his eyes just collided with Zou Wenhuai.
…,
The car door opened, and Wu Rencheng, the manager of the Golden Princess Cinema Department, also followed Lei Juekun out of the car. Although Princess Jin and Jiahe have fought fiercely in the past two years, the two sides have not yet formed a deep grudge, and Lei Juekun and Zou Wenhuai will not fight like enemies when they meet.
Lei Juekun arched his hand with a smile, "Mr. Zou, is it so coincidental?" ”
Zou Wenhuai politely replied, "Boss Lei is also here, since we met, why don't we go in together?" ”
"Please!"
As soon as Lei Juekun raised his hand, Zou Wenhuai also made the same move, the two looked at each other and smiled, and then entered the hotel side by side.
Knowing that the two had something to say on the road, He Guanchang and Wu Rencheng both slowed down and followed not far away.
"I wonder what Boss Lei has plans for the theater union?" Zou Wenhuai was the first to ask.
"I also want to ask Mr. Zou, after the merger of the theater chain, how much does Golden Harvest plan to occupy in it?" Lei Juekun asked more directly.
"The number of Golden Harvest and Golden Princess Theaters is the same, Boss Lei wants a few percent, and Golden Harvest will follow." Zou Wenhuai kicked the ball back again.
"Three-three-three-one, what does Mr. Zou think?" Lei Juekun was no longer ambiguous, and directly pointed out the words.
Zou Wenhuai asked rhetorically: "The two of us hold more than half of the shares, do you think he will agree?" ”
Lei Juekun smiled bitterly, his ideal distribution plan, not to mention that Lin Youlun would not agree, even Shao Yifu might not agree. "Twenty percent is my bottom limit, if it's lower, don't talk about it!"
This remark is exactly what Zou Wenhuai meant, and he smiled slightly, "Then Jiahe will advance and retreat with Boss Lei this time!" ”
