The company established by Hong Jinbao before, although it made three blockbuster movies "Ghost Fights Ghosts", "People Are Scary", and "People Are Scary Ghosts", which became a sensation and became famous, but in terms of strength, it can only be regarded as a third-rate small company.

But this time after Pan Disheng's capital injection, it was different, not only the company's assets skyrocketed, but even its influence in the film industry rose sharply.

Although Pan Disheng rented it to Lin Xi after buying the Shaw Brothers Cinema Line, and would buy the entire Shaw Brothers Cinema Line to Lin Xi three years later, at least for these three years, he was still the nominal boss of the Shaw Brothers Cinema Line.

Based on this alone, Debao Company's future movies don't have to worry about not being scheduled for a good schedule, and in today's Hong Kong, as long as the theater chain is willing to support, no matter how bad the movie is, it can sell millions of box office.

As a result, Hong Jinbao's status in the industry has also risen.

The brothers who also set up a company with Hong Jinbao were naturally happy to see this situation, and everyone at the reception hugged Hong Jinbao and accepted the congratulations of the guests from all sides, but Cheng Long stood aside alone, looking a little out of place.

Lin Xi walked over with a wine glass and patted Cheng Long on the shoulder from behind.

"Why is it that you are drinking here alone?"

"No, it's too noisy over there, I'll hide and be quiet."

Cheng Long lied, for fear of being seen by Lin Xi, so he quickly picked up the wine glass and used the wine to cover up.

Lin Xi knew what Cheng Long was thinking, and he didn't expose it.

"By the way, did you tell Sanmao about Huang Zhan replacing Mecca?"

"Anyway, I told Senior Brother about it before the reception began. He said that since it was a matter set by Mr. Lin, of course it was OK on his side. No problem. ”

Cheng Long secretly said in his heart that it was a fluke, if Lin Xi continued to ask him about standing here alone. He didn't even know how to answer.

Lin Xi patted Cheng Long on the shoulder, and said meaningfully: "Actually, you don't have to envy Sanmao so much." ”

Cheng Long's expression froze suddenly.

Lin Xi didn't look at him, and continued: "Although you are senior brothers, his achievements on the big screen are destined not to be as high as yours, don't look at him now running his own company, majestic, but unless he reaches the level of Jiahe and Shaw Brothers, otherwise it is destined to be only a few years of scenery, and you are different." Your goal is to catch up with Bruce Lee! When you reach that level later, when you look back and look back, you will find that many people have been left far behind by you. ”

Cheng Long heard that Lin Xi meant to enlighten himself, and nodded appreciatively.

"Okay, don't stand here alone, walk around, get to know more people, it's good for you in the future." Lin Xi patted Cheng Long on the shoulder, and went in the other direction with the wine glass.

Cheng Long carefully reflected on what Lin Xi had just said. The mood was a lot brighter, and he was about to follow Lin Xi's Jian yì to meet more friends, but he didn't think that he would bump into someone head-on as soon as he turned around.

The wine glass in Cheng Long's hand was almost angry by this person. was blocked by the other party's repeated apologies.

"You are Mr. Cheng Long of Oriental Film and Television Company, right? Contemptible Mai Danxiong, this is my business card"

Looking at the business card handed over by the person in front of him, Cheng Long hesitated. That's when I took it.

"Mai Danxiong Production Company?"

The company on the business card sounds a little familiar, and Cheng Long always feels that he has heard it somewhere. But I couldn't remember it for a while.

""Pretty Girl", which was released some time ago, was supervised by Contemptible people." Mai Danxiong took the initiative to remind.

"Oh, it turns out that the movie was made by your company. Fortunately, I will be glad to meet you! Cheng Long's attitude immediately became much better, and he took the initiative to shake hands with Mai Danxiong.

"Mr. Cheng Long may not know, in fact, there is still some relationship between us, your famous work "Huo Yuanjia" is directed by Xu Xiaoming, and Xu Xiaoming and I are also old acquaintances, and we have worked together."

Mai Danxiong's words aroused Cheng Long's interest.

"Mr. Mai and Director Xu are colleagues?"

"I used to be the producer of Li's TV, and I participated in the production of "Ten Strange Cases", "Big Husband", and "Silkworm Transformation".

Talking about this past, Mai Danxiong is also quite proud. At that time, he produced a number of popular TV series, successfully sniped wireless, and became famous for a while, becoming a man of the year in the era of the "Wutai Mountain War".

If Mai Danxiong still stays in Lidi, his status in ATV will definitely be higher than Xu Xiaoming.

Cheng Long doesn't know much about this history, but he can also see from his words and deeds that Mai Danxiong is indeed a character, and he has a desire to make friends.

Mai Danxiong also had the same idea, and the two hit it off and soon chatted.

During this period, Cheng Long suddenly asked: "By the way, Mr. Mai, why did you come to today's cocktail party?" ”

Mai Danxiong sighed softly, "Actually, I came here uninvited today. ”

"What? Are you ......" Cheng Long suddenly felt that his brain was a little insufficient.

"Mr. Cheng Long didn't know, at the beginning of my establishment of the production company, Zhucheng Pictures, which was established by Mr. Li Shaoxia, a clothing businessman, provided financial support, which was "Pretty Girl" released some time ago, and my company has now made three movies, all because they did not get the support of the theater chain and achieved the best release schedule, so the box office revenue was greatly discounted, and now that the Shaw Brothers Cinema Line has changed hands, of course I want to take care of the relationship and see if I can get more support from here."

Mai Danxiong only told Cheng Long about the current difficulties encountered by his production company, but did not say that he actually made two preparations this time.

If there is still no drama on the theater side, then he is ready to specialize in foreign markets, shoot in Hong Kong, and then take it to the United States for processing and packaging into Western films to hit the market.

Of course, this is just a way to do it, if possible, of course, Mai Danxiong still hopes to be able to go through the cinema line, after all, the Hong Kong film market is booming now, and there are good sales in Taiwan, Japan, and Southeast Asia, and even some movies can already enter the American market.

Cheng Long chatted with Mai Danxiong quite well just now, and when he heard that he encountered such difficulties, he immediately agreed to help him introduce him to Lin Xi.

Mai Danxiong approached Cheng Long just to wait for him to say this, and when he heard it, he was naturally overjoyed and said a lot of words of thanks.

Cheng Long took a look at the reception with a wine glass, and soon found Lin Xi's figure in the crowd.

"Mr. Lin is over there, let's go over!"

Mai Danxiong looked in the direction of Cheng Long's finger and found that Lin Xi was standing with Zhao Yazhi, who was wearing a black backless dress.

Opposite the two is a couple in their thirties, the woman looks average, but the clothes are outstanding, and the whole thing is very temperamental, and the man standing next to her is a little miserable, although the clothes look very exquisite, but the dignity is really flattering - the back of the head is bald, the hair on both sides and back is obviously groomed, but it still looks messy bulging, and it looks like a lion's head from a distance.

"The two people standing opposite Mr. Lin, do Mr. Cheng Long know each other?"

Mai Danxiong asked hesitantly.

Cheng Long looked at it carefully, then shook his head.

"Then let's get closer first, and then we'll go over when we're done talking?"

Cheng Long was worried that going directly like this would disturb Lin Xi, and when he heard Mai Danxiong's construction, he immediately nodded in agreement.

The two of them walked to a place three or four meters away from Lin Xi and stopped, turned their backs to prevent being discovered early by that side.

Lin Xi and the couple's conversation did not deliberately lower their voices, and the content of the conversation between the two sides fell into the ears of Mai Danxiong and Cheng Long.

"I didn't expect Mr. Shum and Mrs. Shum to hold important positions in the magazine "Outside", which I often read, and a lot of the content in it inspired me to make movies."

"Mr. Lin has won the award, we are just a little fight in the magazine, where can it compare to the career you are doing now?" It was the man's voice.

Then the woman also said: "Yes, Mr. Lin's experience is legendary in the industry, writing books, advertising, making TV series, and making movies, he is proficient in everything, and others can't envy him." ”

Mai Danxiong listened carefully to the conversation over there, and his eyes suddenly stopped on the newspaper shelf at the entrance of the rest area at the entrance of the cocktail party, where there happened to be a copy of the "Extra" magazine that Lin Xi had just mentioned.

Mai Danxiong walked briskly, turned the title page of the magazine, and soon found what he was looking for next to the catalog.

In the list of the main personnel of the magazine, Mak Danxiong found another name named Shum Jianxun, and the title was the editor-in-chief of the magazine.

This should be the name of the man who talked to Lin Xi, and as for the woman next to him, it should be his wife, but she doesn't know her surname, so there is no way to determine her identity.

Determining the identities of these two people, Mai Danxiong was even more puzzled in his heart.

"Outside" is just a slightly famous fashion magazine, but looking at Lin Xi's attitude towards this surnamed Cen, it is clear that he has a great interest in this person, what is going on?

Could it be that this surnamed Cen has any special skills that Lin Xi values?

Or do you think it's bad, these two people are just close to Lin Xi on behalf of the magazine?

Mai Danxiong was in a lot of confusion for a while, and he couldn't find an accurate direction at all.

At this time, Cheng Long, who was waiting in place, began to be anxious, he had already heard that Lin Xi and the two were about to finish talking, so he hurriedly gestured to Mai Danxiong, telling him not to patronize and read magazines, and to come back quickly to do business.

Seeing this, Mai Danxiong hurriedly put down the magazine and walked over, just in time to hear the most critical sentence.

"If Mr. Cen does not give up, there is a vacant position of theater manager on my side, and the salary is definitely higher than Mr. Cen current work, and I think this stage is more suitable for Mr. Cen to display his talents!"
