When there were still more than 20 minutes before the end of the film, Mecca and Huang Baiming left the scene early.

He Guanchang and Xu Guanwen waited for five or six more minutes, then got up and quietly left the screening hall.

"Mr. He, now that the situation is very clear, Mr. Zou will bother you to explain, I'll go first." came out of the theater, Xu Guanwen directly said goodbye to He Guanchang.

He Guanchang wanted to stop Xu Guanwen, but he felt that there was no reason to do so, so he sighed secretly in his heart and let Xu Guanwen leave on his own.

hurried back to Jiahe Company, and before he could see Zou Wenhuai, He Guanchang heard another bad news first.

At the preview screening of "Baby Plan", a person that Golden Harvest was most reluctant to see appeared there.

"Lin, I heard that you recently challenged Golden Harvest's supremacy in the Hong Kong film market, and I have to say that this is a very brave decision, just like Don Quixote brandishing a spear and crashing into a windmill!"

Lin Xi waved his hand through the car window at Cheng Long and Hong Jinbao, who came to see them off, and then turned to look at Jonathan, who had come from the United States.

"So Mr. Jonathan doesn't like my actions?"

Jonathan shook his head and explained, "No, I just want to say that I was surprised by your decision. ”

Lin Xi pouted, "Actually, I didn't expect things to develop so quickly, when the opportunity to control a cinema chain is placed in front of me, I can't refuse such an opportunity." ”

"Then have you considered that you will face a counterattack from Golden Harvest?"

Jonathan asked worriedly.

"In fact, they've already started to do it, but that's okay, I'm sure Mr. Jonathan should have faith in our common cause after watching Project Baby."

Lin Xi shrugged indifferently.

Jonathan nodded, he could refute Lin Xi in other aspects, but on this point, he was willing to raise his hands in agreement.

Because of the excellent performance of "Back to the Future" in the North American market, Jonathan has full expectations for Lin Xi's new film, but after watching "Baby Plan" today, he realized that he still underestimated Lin Xi's strength.

Jonathan's feeling for the movie "Baby Project" can be described as a surprise, with bright and interesting story lines, thrilling action scenes, coupled with the tacit cooperation of the two leading actors Cheng Long and Hong Jinbao and the praise of death, which makes this film present a completely different texture from previous action movies.

It is no exaggeration to say that the action scenes in this film can be regarded as the pinnacle of this era, even compared to the kung fu movies pioneered by Bruce Lee.

At least in the United States, Jonathan will definitely not be able to make such a thrilling action movie, and no action actor will dare to work as hard as Cheng Long.

"You once said that you wanted to challenge Bruce Lee, and to be honest, I didn't think it was a smart decision before, but now that I take it back, and after watching JACK Chen, and that Mr. Hong's appearance in this movie, I finally believe that you are not talking big, and you are more smart and pragmatic than other people who want to challenge Bruce Lee!"

For Jonathan's compliment, Lin Xi just smiled faintly.

"So Mr. Jonathan has promised to bring the film to the United States?"

"Why not? As a movie lover, I owe it to the American audience that there are other options for action movies besides Bruce Lee. Jonathan replied sternly.

Lin Xi stretched out his hand, "Then I wish us a happy cooperation!" ”

Jonathan didn't hesitate to shake his hand, "Happy cooperation!" ”

――

As soon as Jonathan returned to the hotel, he called Zou Wenhuai's phone.

"Mr. Jonathan, I hope you can give us an explanation, why you are at the preview screening of Oriental Film and Television Company's new film today?"

"They offered me an invitation, and I said yes, and it's as simple as that." Jonathan had an indifferent tone, but he made Zou Wenhuai angry.

"Mr. Jonathan, as a partner, you should notify us in advance before participating in this kind of event, otherwise it is easy to cause some unnecessary misunderstandings."

Zou Wenhuai's tone on the phone became tougher, which made Jonathan frown.

"Mr. Zou, please make one thing clear, I am not your subordinate, there is no need to report to you what I do."

"Mr. Jonathan, if you continue to have this attitude, I don't think there is any need for our cooperation to continue!"

Zou Wenhuai coldly threw out such a sentence, but unfortunately what he got was Jonathan's disdainful nasal voice.

"Mr. Zou, are you sure you are responsible for what you just said? That's right, you used to have Bruce Lee, he is irreplaceable in the American market, which is also the basis of our cooperation, but now the situation is different, except for Bruce Lee, I have seen other Hong Kong films still succeed in the North American market, then the cooperation between us has become dispensable, if you insist on doing this, I have no opinion! ”

After saying that, Jonathan snapped and hung up the phone.

Zou Wenhuai was so angry that he smashed the microphone directly on the desk, making a lot of noise.

The secretary pushed open the door and infiltrated to see what was going on, and after being glared at viciously by Zou Wenhuai, he quickly retracted his head and closed the door and didn't dare to come over to disturb again.

"Secretary Chen, is Mr. Zou in the office?"

He Guanchang rushed to the scene immediately after receiving the news and happened to see this scene.

Zou Wenhuai's assistant smiled bitterly and talked about what happened just now, and He Guanchang's face became worse and worse after listening to it.

"Okay, you go get busy first, I'll go in and persuade."

He Guanchang waved his hand to send Zou Wenhuai's assistant away, and then reached out and pushed open the door of Zou Wenhuai's office.

"Don't bother me!"

Zou Wenhuai was sitting behind the desk sulking, and suddenly heard the door ring, and he drove people away without seeing who it was.

"It's me!"

He Guanchang's voice sounded.

Zou Wenhuai raised his head suddenly, and when he saw He Guanchang coming in alone, his face became more and more gloomy.

"Xu Guanwen didn't go to the preview screening of "Crayon Little Student" with you?"

He Guanchang closed the door, turned around and shrugged helplessly at Zou Wenhuai.

"I'm going, but after reading it, he's going to leave first!"

Zou Wenhuai held back the anger in his heart, and stared at He Guanchang with dead eyes.

"What does he mean?"

"Two meanings." He Guanchang sighed helplessly, "One means that the effect of "Crayon Little Student" is above the standard, and if nothing else, the box office will definitely be a big hit, so he feels that there is nothing to say when he comes; On the other hand, he may have been influenced by this movie and began to reconsider his relationship with us. ”

"You mean, Xu Guanwen is also going to Lin Xi's side?"

Zou Wenhuai's mood suddenly fell to the bottom, and his tone was no longer as strong as just now, but it was a little more depressed.

He Guanchang was also a little sad when he heard this, and he also noticed that Zou Wenhuai had just used the word "again", which was not a good sign.

"It's Jonathan, this damn Yankee, I knew I shouldn't have chosen to work with him in the first place!"

Zou Wen replied with hatred.

As soon as he heard this, He Guanchang's heart suddenly cooled in half.

Jonathan appeared at the preview screening of "Baby Project", and now Zou Wenhuai has said such a thing, doesn't that mean that Jonathan has reached a cooperation intention with Lin Xi and will take "Baby Plan" to the United States for release?

This is really bad news for Golden Harvest.

"So what are we going to do now?" The successive bad news made He Guanchang completely out of idea for a while.

Zou Wenhuai had already calmed down at this time, knowing that the shape had begun to develop in a direction that was not favorable to their side, and if it was allowed to spread, it would have a disastrous impact on the entire company.

"Jonathan's side can ignore it for now, "Back to the Future" has an advantage in the subject matter, so it can be a big hit in the United States, no matter how well "Baby Project" is filmed, without this advantage, it is uncertain whether the American audience will buy it. Now the top priority is to stabilize Xu Guanwen, no matter what Lin Xi does, we can't mess up ourselves first. ”

The hearts of the people on Jiahe's side are about to disperse, and it will be difficult to bring the team in the future.

He Guanchang knew this truth well, so he nodded.

"Okay, I'll talk to Xu Guanwen!"

"By the way, you tell him, since Lin Xi can make a movie that you can all agree with in half a month, it shows that he is not short of people in his hands now, plus the newly established Debao Company, Oriental Cinema will definitely give priority to these two companies. Let him take refuge in the past at this time, he may not be valued by the other side, and as long as he is willing to continue to cooperate with us, the schedule of Golden Harvest Cinema is as he chooses, and what movie he wants to make, as long as the theme and script are suitable, we will spare no effort to support it! ”

Zou Wenhuai was determined to keep Xu Guanwen, so he did not hesitate to offer generous conditions to win over the other party.

He Guanchang thought that their side was temporarily stable, so he didn't know if there would be any new changes on the side of Xinyi City because of this incident.

Zou Wenhuai shook his head and said his judgment.

"It shouldn't be for the time being, Mecca was just forced by Lei Juekun to quit the "Baby Project", and in the new art city, he and Hong Jinbao on Lin Xi's side have the best personal relationship, and I don't think anyone else will change camps lightly, after all, the development momentum of the new art city is good now, these people are arrogant and arrogant, how can they be convincing others?"

I always thought that this time the two theaters turned against Lin Xi at the same time, Lei Juekun's Golden Princess suffered more losses than herself, and she lost face more ruthlessly than herself, Zou Wenhuai suddenly felt a lot better. R1152
