As a reborn, Wang Xiaohu himself has already caused damage to the current structure of Hong Kong films, but fortunately, this destruction is good, it is to break the darkest and most confusing voyage of Hong Kong films, and re-examine this issue with a perspective that is nearly 40 years ahead of this era. 【】

It will take four or five years for those actors, directors, and familiar faces to appear on the stage, and in these four or five years, it will be the golden season for Wang Xiaohu to unify Hong Kong films. So after weighing it again, he decided to do it to Golden Harvest!

Wang Xiaohu said it very directly and clearly, and he did not hide his intention to dig the corner of Jiahe in his words. Jiahe used 10 million to poach Jackie Chan, and Wang Xiaohu also adhered to the purpose of the surname Lishang, the most fundamental industry of Songsong Jiahe - the cinema line.

It's not that Wang Xiaohu doesn't have the money to build a new cinema, in fact, Concord is currently working on this work, and two luxury cinemas with a capacity of 3,000 people have started construction at Nathan Road and Campari Road in Tsim Sha Tsui at the same time, and it is expected that the two luxury cinemas will be officially opened by the end of the year.

As one of the three main elements of the development of Hong Kong films, the cinema chain occupies a considerable weight, and controlling the cinema chain is equivalent to controlling one-third of the Hong Kong film industry, and Wang Xiaohu's film dynasty blueprint can also take a big leap.

As far as the strong strength of Concord Company is currently shown, it is reasonable for Wang Xiaohu to offer such conditions, several bosses glanced at each other and did not give an immediate reply, Wang Xiaohu was not in a hurry, and took out a few bosses who had been favoring the box office sharing contract for a long time for them to see.

"The box office is divided into six or four points, six for me and four for you." Wang Xiaohu said lightly: "You can ask the bosses who came to sign the contract in the previous few places, they are all at this price." ”

In fact, these bosses have already inquired about the negotiation weight before they came, and the 64 dividend is relatively fair, even if Wang Xiaohu proposed the 73 dividend at this time, they also had to sign it in order to maintain the normal development of the theater, it can be said that Wang Xiaohu thought about it perfectly, and did not mean to kill everything.

Several bosses nodded, signed it very happily, paid the deposit, and Wang Xiaohu gave them a copy of "Ah Hu".

As of early August, when the first round of "A Tiger" was drawn, the box office in Hong Kong reached 16 million, breaking the box office record in Hong Kong, and the box office in Southeast Asia has also accumulated to 43.21 million, and the first round of release in North America is one month longer than that in Hong Kong, but the current statistics are also 36 million, and it is US dollars.

Others were envious and jealous of Wang Xiaohu, but Wang Xiaohu did not show much excitement, when Run Run Shaw came to congratulate him, Wang Xiaohu pouted and said, "This is nothing." ”

The calm and disapproving look when he spoke almost made Run Shaw scold his mother, he pointed at Wang Xiaohu and said angrily: "Aren't you too much? Think about it, who can make the movie be released at the same time in Southeast Asia and North America, who can get a perverted box office like you before, do you feel that the temple in Hong Kong is too small to accommodate you, the Oscar Buddha? ”

Wang Xiaohu shook his head bitterly, and his demeanor finally corrected a little, "Uncle Six, it's not that I'm not satisfied, it's not that I'm proud of my current achievements, in fact, our Hong Kong film has only taken the first step, and the influence brought by this step is limited." If you produce and shoot in Hollywood alone, you will find that this achievement is really nothing, just like in the past you received a salary of 10,000 Hong Kong dollars a month, and even if you get 11,000 Hong Kong dollars a month, you will not be very excited. ”

"What if it's 20,000?" Run Run Shaw narrowed his eyes and stared at Wang Xiaohu and asked.

"Not enough!" Wang Xiaohu smiled, his eyes flashing with greater ambition: "If it is two million or twenty million, I will be a little satisfied." ”

The concept of 20,000 and 20 million, anyone can understand the gap, in the eyes of Run Run Shaw, Wang Xiaohu's words just now are simply a fool's dream, according to him, he is now dissatisfied with the development of Hong Kong, to be precise, this kid has been tossing in Hollywood for more than two years, not only has his horizons broadened, his thinking has matured, and his courage has also become fat, fat to the point of wanting to dominate the world's movies.

After a long time, Run Run Shaw came to his senses from the shock and gritted his teeth and said, "Boy, you are ruthless!" Your appetite must be too big, be careful that you can't eat a fat man and choke to death. ”

"So I'm going to take one bite at a time." Wang Xiaohu smiled bitterly and shook his head, in fact, he only now understands that instead of silently waiting for the arrival of the glorious period of Hong Kong films, it is better to take advantage of the market before it is formed.

Run Run Shaw has no way to do this, Wang Xiaohu is Sina, he is the old wave, the Yangtze River is pushed by the back waves, Wang Xiaohu's ambitions and ideas he can't understand, so he sighed and asked: "How do you want to go next?" ”

"Working together will completely suppress Golden Harvest!" Wang Xiaohu narrowed his eyes and said coldly: "I used to expect them to set off some waves, but now it seems hopeless!" ”

Run Run Shaw stared at Wang Xiaohu for a long time before he smiled mysteriously: "Jiahe is currently in a situation where he is not dead or alive, I know a little bit of the inside story!" ”

"Oh?" Wang Xiaohu became interested, pulled Run Run Shaw to sit on the sofa, and asked curiously: "Sixth uncle, tell me, what's wrong with Jiahe?" ”

"It's very simple, Long Tiantian was just to help Long Wuya vent his evil anger, so he did it against you, and if you wanted to kill Jiahe, he just saved Jiahe." Run Run Shaw said with emotion: "But when Long Tiantian took over Golden Harvest, he tragically found that he didn't know much about movies, and a layman who wanted to lead an insider, especially Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang, two ambitious guys, was somewhat difficult." ”

Wang Xiaohu nodded, what Run Run Shaw said is not unreasonable, Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang are definitely not fuel-efficient lamps, if the two had no ambitions, they would not have left Shaw Brothers with 400,000 Hong Kong dollars and started anew. Although the Long family is rich, they do not have professionals who are familiar with the film industry, which is the main reason for the current situation of Golden Harvest.

"In fact, the Long family has not swept away all the messes of Golden Harvest." Run Run Shaw said another sentence that surprised Wang Xiaohu. "I complained to Old Man Long many times, so that Old Man Long completely realized that the twists and turns in the movie industry are not something that anyone can play, and the Dragon girl was also present that day"

Run Run Shaw said that he deliberately stopped here, looked at Wang Xiaohu with a smile and said: "Actually, the dragon girl has made trouble with her brother several times over this matter, which shows that she is very fond of you!" ”

"Sixth uncle, let's talk about the point!" Wang Xiaohu coughed twice and urged awkwardly, he didn't want to continue to dwell on this issue.

Run Run Shaw sighed, as if he was sorry for Wang Xiaohu's indifference, and said after a long time: "In short, the old man of the Long family talked to Long Tiantian several times, although Long Tiantian didn't listen to it on the surface, but Long Tiantian, this young man, is not a fool, he just made a high profile to enter Golden Harvest, and then invested the funds in Golden Harvest little by little. ”

"That's not right! I remember that Jiahe was very happy to compensate after losing the lawsuit, if it wasn't for Long Tiantian to take out the money, how could they pay it back! Wang Xiaohu frowned, puzzled.

"Yes, at first, I also thought that Long Tiantian took out the money from the profit part of the stock market crash, but Old Man Long told me that the money was mainly taken out by Zou Wenhuai" Run Run Shaw's voice dragged on for a long time, as if he was embarrassed that he had given Wang Xiaohu the wrong information in the first place. "Jackie Chan's 10 million has never been cashed in, in fact, Jackie Chan only got less than 500,000 yuan, and then the Long family began to look at and observe Zou Wenhuai, and found that Zou Wenhuai kept proposing some big productions that cost millions of Hong Kong dollars, but Zou Wenhuai couldn't come up with a shooting plan that Long Sky thought was feasible, so he kept holding it, what happened in the end, you will never think of it!"

"What happened?" Wang Xiaohu scratched his head, "Sixth uncle, you are not a good storyteller, it is better to tell me all the results directly." ”

"Hey, the young man is just anxious, it's boring, okay"

It turned out that Long Sky also had great ambitions at the beginning of taking over Golden Harvest and wanted to make a big splash in the film industry, so he couldn't wait for Zou Wenhuai to submit a shooting plan, but Zou Wenhuai didn't come up with a good script for two months.

It was at this time that the news that Wang Xiaohu won four little gold statuettes at the Oscars reached Hong Kong, and Run Run Shaw once again went to Long's house as a guest, and the side knock made Old Man Long feel that it was difficult to turn over Golden Harvest.

So Long Sky saw this and retreated, Zou Wenhuai and others couldn't persuade him, and finally held on, wanting to continue Jackie Chan to turn over, but at this time, Jackie Chan did not arrive because of the remaining 9.5 million yuan, and his promise to his shareholders and directors was not implemented.

"Wu Siyuan? Chen Ziqiang! I'm rubbing, they still hooked up after all! Wang Xiaohu was stunned for a moment, and then immediately came to his senses and hurriedly asked: "Isn't the current Jiahe a lost dog?" ”

"Exactly!"

"Damn, then what are we waiting for, Uncle Six, let's join forces to annex Ya, this time no one will want to stop Lao Tzu from taking revenge!" Wang Xiaohu shouted excitedly.

"Hehe, that's what I mean, otherwise I wouldn't have visited today!" Run Run Shaw laughed.
