Chapter 164: "It's not about heart."
……
Zou Wenhuai is different from Yang Shoucheng, Huang Baiming, To Qifeng, etc., Zou Wenhuai is a pure owner of a film company, not an actor or a director.
His Golden Harvest has produced various types of films, and his management style is also in line with the general trend of industry development.
He is a veritable management master, but his luck is not good, and he happened to coincide with the period of reform and opening up and global integration on the mainland!
The scale of Golden Harvest is not small in Asia, but compared with those behemoths in Hollywood, it is not enough to see.
Hollywood makes blockbusters, often hundreds of millions of dollars, what should I do if this is called Golden Harvest? You can't take the risk of pledging your entire company to make a movie, right?
Even if Zou Wenhuai dares to do this, the other directors don't dare, you know, although Zou Wenhuai is the largest shareholder of Golden Harvest, he is not an absolute controlling shareholder and has no absolute right to speak.
As for the other actors, scripts, directors, etc., these are not the main reasons for the loneliness of Port X movies, because in fact, these Port X are not lagging behind.
Westerners like to write books, and this set of theories, that set of principles, is very profound, and it seems to be lofty;
This is not the case in the Chinese civilization circle, and the technical flow likes to engage in housekeeping skills, so they will not leak this set; Of course, there are also non-technical cultural people who like to be different, they like to write books, because they want to be famous in the world.
Hollywood blockbusters have a lot of special effects, and in terms of special effects - your sister, it all depends on the pile of bills!
This is the weakness of the X-port film industry!
The film companies in Port X rely on too small a market plate, and their capital is far less deep than that of Hollywood companies, and they are almost completely uncompetitive in blockbusters.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
"Old Zou, you are Taishan Beidou of the X-port film industry, are you willing to join us?" Lin Ze admired Zou Wenhuai very much, and asked with some humility.
Zou Wenhuai is already an old man over seventy years old, his hair is gray, and he is so weak and cold that he is crushed by Lin Ze's capital mountain, he twisted his brows, looked at Lin Ze, and replied: "Lin Gongzi, if I don't join, how are you going to deal with Jiahe?" ”
Lin Ze paused for a moment and blurted out directly: "Dig people, so that no one can use them, the stock price will inevitably plummet, and then buy tradable shares and shares of other shareholders until they have absolute control." ”
Simple and crude, but with the support of capital, it is also the most direct means!
"Alas~" Zou Wenhuai seemed to have aged a lot all of a sudden, sighed, but was still a little surprised in his heart, "You won't let him go bankrupt?" ”
He originally thought that Lin Ze would ruthlessly destroy the film company that did not obey him.
"Hehe~" Lin Ze smiled, shook his head slightly, and said: "Zou Lao thought about it a lot, Lin said that he just wanted to integrate the X-port film industry, the purpose was to fight against the impact of Hollywood blockbusters, Golden Harvest is a monument in the X-port film industry, how could I destroy it?" ”
Zou Wenhuai was skeptical, nodded, and said, "Lin Gongzi is so open-minded." ”
Yang Shoucheng, Huang Baiming and others were very surprised when they heard this, they thought that Lin Ze would kill the chickens and make an example of the monkey's Liwei!
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Lin Ze smiled: "This has nothing to do with open-mindedness. His tone changed slightly, and his expression was a little proud, "If Jiahe doesn't obey me, I will suppress him until he becomes my hand, and how can I destroy my own things?" ”
Zou Wenhuai was stunned when he heard this, and his heart was shocked, and Yang Shoucheng, Huang Baiming and others were also stunned, and they were stunned and lived there.
Some people with more extensive knowledge suddenly remembered something in their minds.
Back then, when Hitler's army besieged France, Hitler said that we should be careful not to damage cultural relics when bombing France, because those cultural relics will be our property in the future......
What a resemblance to what Lin Ze said to Hitler!
Yang Shoucheng's mouth pursed, thinking in his mind: Playing with such a person, in the end, he won't play himself, right?
But there are also people with bright eyes, such as Huang Baiming of Oriental Entertainment, To Qifeng of Galaxy Imaging, etc., as well as personnel from Media Asia Film and other companies.
Back then, Shaw Brothers dominated the sixties; In the 70s, Golden Harvest rose to compete with the Shaw Brothers, and the two powerhouses competed; In such an environment, in the 90s, Xinyicheng broke out in a daze, creating a three-legged pattern with Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest.
The new art city was made by Huang Baiming and some friends, and later the new art city was reluctantly disintegrated because of the withdrawal of major shareholders, and Huang Baiming formed Oriental Entertainment.
It can be seen that Huang Baiming has a great spirit of challenge.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
As for Galaxy Imaging and Media Asia Films at this stage, they are not so much film companies as studios where like-minded directors and filmmakers gather together to seek common development.
They have a good impression of Lin Ze and are ambitious? No, that can also be understood as aggressiveness!
Making movies, especially good movies and blockbusters, which one doesn't need big capital as a backing?
And Junlei has nearly 8 billion Hong Kong dollars, it has money!
As a result, Galaxy Reflection instinctively wants to combine with Junlei.
However, Galaxy Imaging was only established in 96, which is not as good as the qualifications of Golden Harvest and Oriental Entertainment (formerly known as New Art City), and it is also stronger than the foundation of Yang Shoucheng, the boss behind Emperor Entertainment.
Compared to them, it was a newborn calf, and he wanted to say that he was willing to merge with Junlei, but how could he be qualified to sit in one of the five chairs on the board?
To Qifeng is very talented, in fact, there are many talented people who attended this banquet today.
However, Lin Ze's attention at this time was still on Zou Wenhuai.
He needs helpers who can manage a large group, and Zou Wenhuai is the perfect candidate.
In the original time and space, Zou Wenhuai had been struggling to support Jiahe until 07, when he was eighty, and his energy was low.
At that time, Golden Harvest was also under the double pressure of the West and the mainland companies that had grown up, and it had to announce its retirement after selling all its shares.
After retiring, in an interview with reporters, he bluntly said: "My biggest wish is to hope that Chinese films can compete with Hollywood!" I hope that Chinese films can soar! ”
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
"Old Zou, as long as you are willing to join us, I can promise you that the new group can be run by you!" Lin Ze looked at Zou Wenhuai, and said with a little respect in humility again.
Kroman sat beside him, and when he had said this, he reached out and patted him on the shoulder, as if to apologize to him.
Kroman served as the executive president of Junlei, and it stands to reason that after the merger of the new group, he was the chief executive of course, but at this time, Lin Ze's meaning, he had to give way.
Kroman's face changed slightly, but then he seemed to have received Lin Ze's apology, shook his head slightly, hinted that he didn't care, and said to Zou Wenhuai with a smile: "Mr. Zou, if you are in charge of the new group, I believe it will be expected by all." ”
After hearing this, Yang Shoucheng, Huang Baiming, Du Qifeng and others nodded silently, Zou Wenhuai is undoubtedly convincing regardless of qualifications and ability.
Zou Wenhuai saw that Lin Ze made such a promise to him in front of everyone, as if he was riding a roller coaster, and his heart couldn't help but be hot, and he was a little eager.
In charge of the new group, it is a group with a capital of nearly 8 billion!
8 billion Hong Kong dollars, which can do too many things, such as...... Shoot movies that rival Hollywood blockbusters!
Like what...... Uh, dig up the talents of Shao Yifu wireless TVB, so that he has no talent available!
Like what...... Well, last year, a piece of land that Golden Harvest had planned to build a cinema was robbed by Shaw Brothers for 78 million Hong Kong dollars (this incident is not fictional), hum, with nearly 8 billion Hong Kong dollars, I can build a bigger cinema and kill Shao Lao Liu!!
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Zou Wenhuai and Shao Yifu have been fighting for a lifetime, and they instantly thought of using the power of the new group to settle the old feud between the two.
Originally, in the field of film, he pressed Shaw Brothers to close down and stop production, which was very fulfilling, but Shaw Yifu still has TVB!
TVB is in the TV industry, but it is a Beidou-like existence of Mount Tai.
In the face of TVB, Zou Wenhuai had no way to speak.
A film industry and a television industry, although there is also a certain intersection, but after all, they are two industries.
Besides, the scale of TVB is much larger than that of Golden Harvest, Golden Harvest and him fight for capital, and they will only find their own death!
However, as long as TVB is still there, Shao Yifu can actually set up a film company at any time: screenwriters, directors, shooting venues, actors, etc., are all ready-made.
Zou Wenhuai knows Shao Yifu.
As long as Jiahe encounters an accident, Shao Yifu will definitely seize the opportunity without hesitation and give him a fatal blow!
This is what Zou Wenhuai has always feared the most.
