Chapter 19: Sammo Hung Makes a Decision
Lin Xiaotian invited Hong Jinbao to drink tea, "Brother Hong, try this tea, this is what I gave me from Minister Liang Qiren of HSBC, and I can't buy it outside", Lin Xiaotian said while giving Hong Jinbao a cup of tea.
Hong Jinbao is also a person who loves tea, and when he heard Lin Xiaotian say this, he picked up the tea, did not drink it immediately, but smelled it first, and a fragrance was straight into his nose, and he involuntarily sneezed, and shouted before he drank it: "Good tea", and then the small cup was drunk all in one go.
The two drank some tea, their spirits improved a lot, and the wine went down a lot, Lin Xiaotian looked at Hong Jinbao's appearance, decided to strike while the iron was hot, and said: "Brother Hong, I just proposed that I want to partner with you to open a film company, not on a whim, but after careful consideration."
Hong Jinbao also let go at this time, and said: "Brother Lin, have you considered that not every film company makes money, and there are a lot of people who lose money, and in addition, have you considered the problem of theaters, and now theaters are controlled by large companies." After speaking, he was silent, waiting for Lin Xiaotian's answer.
Lin Xiaotian smiled slightly after listening to Hong Jinbao's words, poured tea for Hong Jinbao, and said: "Big brother, the film company lost money because it did not find the right market demand, and at the same time, in order to save costs, it was filmed indiscriminately, and another reason for the bad box office was that it pursued artistry too much and was detached from the needs of the public, and then there was a lack of leadership from insiders, I say so, you agree."
Hong Jinbao nodded, which was regarded as approving Lin Xiaotian's words, and Lin Xiaotian then said, "I want to make a film with Brother Hong's vision and ability, even if it doesn't make money, it won't lose much, not to mention that these are not so important in my plan."
Then he looked at Hong Jinbao and said: "As for the problem of the cinema chain, this is also very easy to solve, I can complete our own cinema chain within three years, of course, we have to rely on other cinema companies in the early stage, but you can rest assured that we have the funds for filming, as long as you promise to do it with me, I guarantee that you will have no less than 10 million shooting funds every year."
Looking at Hong Jinbao's shocked look, Lin Xiaotian smiled and continued: "In my planning, the investment amount of this film company is not less than 100 million", when he heard Lin Xiaotian say 100 million, Hong Jinbao was really surprised, how much is Jiahe in this era, the average number of films is only hundreds of thousands or more than one million, and his three million films are considered blockbusters, and this brother dares to say that the investment is not less than 100 million.
Hong Jinbao said suspiciously: "You're not kidding, Brother Lin, invest 100 million, give 10 million a year to let me make a movie, such a good thing."
"Of course, not everyone can do such a good thing, that is, Brother Hong, you don't even know what my name is, you are afraid that something will happen to me and carry me home, enlighten me, invite me to dinner, take care of me, this is the fate of the two of us, I don't look at other people." Hong Jinbao was thinking seriously there.
Lin Xiaotian said there again: "Big brother, you don't have to invest a penny, I'll give you 5% of the shares, according to my estimates, it will take at least hundreds of millions of funds to complete my blueprint, but it is not invested all at once, 20 million funds are the funds for me to keep you filming for the past two years, I will not withdraw money from the company within three years, and if the company does not have more than 1100 million assets after three years, you can withdraw at any time, you see how Brother Hong, what I said can be written into the legal contract."
Hong Jinbao doesn't know what to say now, he believes that what Lin Xiaotian said is true, and dares to let it be written into the legal contract, which is a completely serious performance.
"Why me," Hong Jinbao asked. Lin Xiaotian looked at Hong Jinbao's appearance and knew that he had succeeded in the eighth layer.
"Because you are my eldest brother, I believe that we are fateful, when the two of us don't know each other, you can carry me back This is fate", this is Lin Xiaotian's answer, Hong Jinbao was stunned. At the same time, I also feel that Lin Xiaotian really values himself and is sincere to himself, this is to pull himself.
Sitting there, his face changed for a while, and he didn't know what he was thinking, and finally Hong Jinbao slapped his thigh and said: "Brother Lin, you have said it like this, what I'm talking about is a little unreasonable, I know that my brother is pulling me, I thank you, brother."
"Big brother, what are you talking about, everyone makes money, and besides, without your help, I can't make money, right", Lin Xiaotian said modestly.
After the two of them spoke, they both let go, and then said something else, and finally started talking about women, Lin Xiaotian was depressed, "Big brother, it's not that I can't find a woman now, but it's not good that a man breaks down too early, it will affect the future, and I have to endure it for two years."
Hong Jinbao laughed out loud, the atmosphere was very harmonious, Lin Xiaotian continued: "Big brother, you are a few days late for the movie now, we will first select the address of the company, and then go through all the procedures that should be done, and then big brother, you concentrate on making movies."
Hong Jinbao nodded, agreeing with Lin Xiaotian's statement, today I originally wanted to pull a film investment, but I didn't expect to pull out a film company, I really didn't expect that Hong Jinbao and Yuan Biao had dinner at Lin Xiaotian's, they didn't drink at dinner, and after dinner, Lin Xiaotian let Sammo Hung and them go back.
Early the next morning, Hong Jinbao's phone call came, "Xiaotian, what a big house are you looking for", Lin Xiaotian pondered for a while, and said: "Brother Hong's place can't be small, it's either an office building or a small courtyard, you see, if the place is suitable, we will buy it directly with the land."
Hearing Lin Xiaotian's confident voice on the phone, Hong Jinbao's dry experience was also full, and after exchanging opinions with Lin Xiaotian, he ran out, looked for a place, and agreed to contact and communicate at night.
After taking a bath and lying on the bed, Lin Xiaotian's heart was happy, he picked up Hong Jinbao when he drank too much, it can be said that God loves him, Lin Xiaotian slept beautifully.
Lin Xiaotian was not idle, let the army drive and take himself to find Kwong Jiaxian, Kwong Jiaxian can now be said to be a very famous figure in the legal industry, basically rarely goes to court, busy participating in the election of parliamentarians, and the law firm is also on the right track, and now Kwong Jiaxian's law firm has more than 30 lawyers, which can be said to be strong.
When Lin Xiaotian arrived, Kuang Jiaxian had just sent off a few guests and was resting in the office, and the secretary outside knew Lin Xiaotian, so he led Lin Xiaotian directly, of course, this was also explained by Kuang Jiaxian.
