325 Arrogant Taiwanese film dealers

Xiahou Mo did not disappoint Wang Xiaohu, this girl who was recommended by Linda to come to the company and was hidden in the snow for a year used three days to complete the catalog of "Drunken Fist" according to Wang Xiaohu's requirements, Wang Xiaohu felt good after listening carefully a few times, and finally confirmed Xiahou Mo's talent in music. [No pop-up novel network] and called Linda to thank you: "Hey, Linda, thank you for the music talent you recommended for the company back then, the music made by Xiaoxia meets my requirements very well." ”

"Yes, congratulations to Tiger Tiger, you are finally willing to use Xia as your music creator, you don't know that Xia has borne a lot of psychological burden for more than a year, she thinks she is a redundant member of the company, and even has the idea of changing jobs, thank God, you discovered her talent in time, so as not to lose a talent." After Linda heard the good news, her mood was rarely much better, and she said a lot about Xiahou Mo's situation on the phone.

Until today, Wang Xiaohu knew that he had made a mistake, Linda's recommendation of Xiahou Mo was not simple, she had received a good music study in the United States since she was a child, had a natural superiority to music, and very much wanted to enter a film company to practice her talent, this wish was soon realized, she was recommended by Linda to enter the Concord Company, but there was no sign of reuse for more than a year, which made her very distressed, thank God finally gave her a chance to make a splash.

"Yes Linda, I almost let go of the musical genius." Wang Xiaohu also said luckily: "Are you okay in Seattle?" ”

"Tiger, thank you for the money you transfer every month, I want to say that the current money is enough for our mother and son to live for more than a year, I heard that the company fell into a trough some time ago, you should put the money into the construction of the company, then Bruce will also be pleased."

"Linda, you don't have to worry about the company's affairs, as long as I am here, there will be no crisis in Concord, I can assure you! As for the monthly living expenses, you still have to transfer money, and I don't want to see you encounter any material difficulties. Wang Xiaohu sighed and said, "I believe that with the passage of time, you will be able to cheer up soon." ”

"Thank you Tiger, oh, Brandon is clamoring to talk to you on the phone." Linda shouted.

I haven't seen Li Guohao for most of the year, and I really miss it, so Wang Xiaohu said: "Let him answer the phone." A moment later, Li Guohao's immature voice came from the phone: "Hey, Daddy Tiger, are you okay in Hong Kong now?" ”

"Haha, of course I'm fine! But I'm worried if you're naughty. ”

"No, I'm very well-behaved now!" Li Guohao said: "Not only that, but I now insist on exercising every day. ”

"Okay, I'll go to Seattle next month to get you back to Hong Kong, and then I'll train you in hell."

"Yes! Daddy Tiger, this is definitely a great idea! Li Guohao said excitedly.

It seems that life in Seattle doesn't appeal to Lee Kwok Ho, so much so that he can't wait to return to Hong Kong and return to his former Uncle Tiger, now Tiger's father.

Things seem to have some way out as Wang Xiaohu expected, the information about Li Guohao that I saw in my previous life was all negative, he was withdrawn, negative, easily angered, and even liked to defend his dignity with his fists, is he mature in this life?

Wang Xiaohu didn't have time to think about this issue, because soon he had to prepare for the release of "Drunken Fist".

Yuan Heping seemed to be a little enthusiastic about the way to increase the box office by lottery, and waited passionately for Wang Xiaohu to give orders, and then he personally looked for Yang Shenghua and Zhang Luo. "Ah Hu, are we still holding a lottery this time?"

Wang Xiaohu's answer made him a little disappointed. "No, I've said it many times, the lottery is a method of last resort, the focus still depends on the quality of the film, Brother Ping, don't you have any confidence in "Drunken Fist"?"

This question choked Yuan Heping a lot, so he didn't know how to answer for a while, and he hesitated for a long time before he said: "I just feel that there are 30 TVs left in our warehouse."

"You're afraid that someone will steal it in the warehouse, right?" Wang Xiaohu smiled, how could he not know Yuan Heping's psychology, but he learned from Gu Jiahui a few days ago about Long Zichen's help behind his back, and it was also a good idea to think about Long Yatou these days, but this kind of kindness was too damaging to a man's self-esteem. So this time for the release of "Drunken Fist", he refused to use this method to promote it, lest some people make irresponsible remarks, as if without the help of others, the Concord Company would collapse! "Since you are afraid of others stealing, it is very simple, the company's employees carry one home, and I will send you the benefits this month!"

"Really?" Not only was Yuan Heping happy at this time, but others also asked loudly.

Wang Xiaohu nodded with a smile and said: "Naturally, it's true,Go back and report a list,According to how much the individual has contributed to the company,As long as you have one qualified person,Don't be discouraged if you are not qualified,There will be opportunities in the future,Anyway, sooner or later, TV appliances will be popularized。 Oh, by the way, don't forget to send it to Xiahou Mo of our company's sound effects department, as well as Weng Meiling, Xingzai, etc., the goods are not enough to continue to buy, until supplies last. ”

"Thank you, Brother Tiger!"

"Brother Tiger is wise!"

Who made Wang Xiaohu show so generous and generous, just this system of seeking benefits for employees everywhere is unique in the Hong Kong film industry, even if it is a big business across the film and television Shaw Group, it may not be able to treat a small employee of Concord.

The publicity work of "Drunken Fist" was soon launched, Yang Shenghua personally led the team to put up posters on the streets and alleys of Hong Kong, and at the same time released the trailer of "Drunken Fist" in 70 theaters and 20 small cinemas, and the song "Drunken Fist" was also sung during the prime time advertisement of TVB TV, Jackie Chan has become a new generation of kung fu idols, and its popularity index has risen one after another.

Hong Kong's publicity work has done well, which naturally attracted the attention of film companies from Taiwan, Macao, and Southeast Asian countries, so five days before the release of "Drunken Fist", Concord Company ushered in filmmakers from six places in Southeast Asia.

In the half year that Wang Xiaohu worked hard for Golden Harvest, these film companies have always had a direct dialogue with Zou Wenhuai, and the films shot by Golden Harvest at that time were the stop to maintain the survival of the film companies and the source of interests. Later, Wang Xiaohu jumped out of Golden Harvest, these filmmakers felt that Wang Xiaohu would not have much achievement, and secondly, they were afraid that the relationship with Golden Harvest would be stiff, and there would be no better film agents in the future, so they never dared to talk to Wang Xiaohu directly, especially after Bruce Lee's death, Golden Harvest immediately took a series of suppressions against Concord, and this group of filmmakers was even more disappointed in Concord.

Originally, they thought that Golden Harvest would continue to have good films to come up with, who knew that a "New Jingwumen" would make them lose their money, and now Golden Harvest is cooperating with Warner to seek the battlefield of Hollywood, but Concord has made a gorgeous turnaround with "The Loser", and the mercenary filmmakers finally made a mistake until they were wrong, and the mistake was too outrageous! So the people who made up for the loss came over one by one to show their goodwill, and fought to get the distribution rights of "Drunken Fist" from Wang Xiaohu.

There are two ways for filmmakers in Southeast Asia to buy film copyrights, one is to directly buy the local copyright of a certain film at a fixed price, which is suitable for the kind of small and medium-sized films, which are easy to make money in the short term. The second is to divide, which is suitable for large-scale productions and blockbuster films. This is what Xu Junlong, the publicity manager who has not yet reported to the company, secretly told Wang Xiaohu, although Xu Junlong's experience in this area is not as rich as Winterdur, but he is very familiar with the Hong Kong film industry, and after he told Wang Xiaohu the way of negotiation, Wang Xiaohu seemed extremely calm.

Once upon a time, Concord did not have its own foreign distribution channels, relying on Golden Harvest's connections when he was in Golden Harvest, and using Shaw Brothers' connections in Southeast Asia after jumping out of Golden Harvest, although it seems that Wang Xiaohu does not need to worry about it, but those commissions are sometimes amazing, so Wang Xiaohu must now establish his own Southeast Asian distribution channels, and cannot let this money flow into other people's pockets in vain.

Wang Xiaohu took Yuan Heping, Sammo Hung and others into the conference room, almost choked by the thick air in the room, frowned and looked, and saw six people smoking cigarettes while talking about meat jokes, and the air that choked people was made by the six people.

Wang Xiaohu asked Yuan Biao to open the window, and it took a long time for the air in the room to barely get used to it, so he sat down with a frown and looked at the six people of different figures who were dressed like bosses.

The six filmmakers were also looking at him, especially a big fat man sitting opposite Wang Xiaohu, staring at Wang Xiaohu with squinting eyes, and said obediently, this baby is less than 20 years old, and he has reached the boss level, and he was a little unconvinced at the moment to snuff out the cigarette in his hand, and took out a cigar from his pocket and smoked it.

The smoke filled the conference room again, and after Wang Xiaohu looked at them one by one, his eyes locked on the person at the back, and he always felt that the other party was a little familiar, so he opened his mouth and said to him: "I don't know what to call it?" ”

"Oh, Mr. Wang, my name is Wang Jiaxing, let's still have a bit of a relationship, my cousin's name is "The filmmaker named Wang Jiaxing didn't finish speaking, but he was interrupted by the big fat man who smoked cigars: "Boss Wang, it's hard to call Tian Jianren, it's a pleasure to meet you, hahaha!" ”

A choking smoke of cigars rushed to Wang Xiaohu's face, making Wang Xiaohu's eyes suddenly feel hot, and he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Tian slut?" ”

"Yes, is Boss Wang familiar with my name?" Tian Jianren smoked his cigar vigorously and said proudly: "In the past, your films were all represented by me in Taiwan. ”

"Well, slut is a good name!"
