Chapter 104: Dark Horse Cinema (3/4 update)
Anle Cinema Line specializes in showing Western films, and Jiang Zhiqiang has been busy selecting films in the United States recently, preparing for the upcoming Christmas and Chinese New Year files. These two schedules are very close to each other, and they are the golden period for theaters to make money, so they must be taken seriously.
Like "Christmas Story", which was released during last year's Christmas schedule, it was carefully selected by him, and the box office results were not bad. Of course, this is only good for Western films released in Hong Kong.
The publicity of "The Love of People and Ghosts" in the United States attracted his attention. Today's Western films have a general response in Hong Kong, with a small audience and a fixed population, and more Hong Kong citizens are seeking Hong Kong films, the so-called Hollywood blockbusters...... It's far worse than Hong Kong films!
But this movie is different.
The heroine Zhong Chuhong is a popular actress in Hong Kong, and this selling point alone determines that this movie will be more popular in Hong Kong than Western films released in the past. And Twentieth Century Fox has put such a lot of effort into publicity, obviously very optimistic about this movie. If this film can be introduced to Hong Kong and released simultaneously with the United States this Christmas, Anle Cinemas will have the best Christmas possible.
The second selling point of this movie is Chen Ping'an. Although Fox did not say that the director was Chen Ping'an in the promotion, he could figure it out with his toes, inviting Zhong Chuhong to come to the United States to make a movie, who else could there be besides Chen Ping'an? The "Jianghu Fundraising Order" two months ago is still vivid!
He keenly grasped this business opportunity and found the distribution manager of Twentieth Century Fox, only to learn that they only acted as an agent for the European and American distribution of "The Ghost Is Not Over", and the distribution rights in Asia were still in the hands of Chen Ping'an.
After talking to his father and brother on the phone, he learned that Chen Ping'an had not yet returned to Hong Kong, so he asked an acquaintance of Guò Fox to find out that Chen Ping'an was staying at the hotel, and immediately came to the door to ask for a meeting. It's a pity that Chen Ping'an is not in the hotel during the day, and he and Zhong Chuhong are enjoying the two-person world outside, and he has been here several times but has not been able to find anyone.
Since he was going to return to Hong Kong the day after tomorrow, even though it was already more than nine o'clock in the evening, he still came to the hotel for the eighth time and knocked on Chen Ping'an's door.
This time Chen Ping'an was in the hotel, but his attitude made him dissatisfied. However, seeing that there was still Zhong Chuhong in the room, the coats, shoes, and daily necessities of the two were mixed together, and the two of them were wearing casual home clothes, and they immediately understood why Chen Ping'an would have that attitude when he opened the door.
This guy, it seems that the scandal between him and Honggu was not made up by the media!
Knowing that he was presumptuous, Jiang Zhiqiang immediately got up and said goodbye, now is obviously not a good time to talk about things, but he didn't want to be blocked by Chen Ping'an.
"Since Brother Jiang is here, why should he leave in a hurry?"
"Hehe, it was me who was abrupt and disturbed Brother Chen's rest. Tomorrow, do you have time for Brother Chen tomorrow, I have something I want to discuss with Brother Chen. ”
"It's too late tomorrow, so let's say it now. To tell you the truth, I have always wanted to get to know Brother Jiang, but I don't have the opportunity, so I will see you today, and I will definitely talk about it at night. Brother Jiang, please take a seat. ”
Chen Ping'an's enthusiasm made Jiang Zhiqiang quite incomprehensible. Anle Film Company is an alternative to the Hong Kong film industry, with few productions, mainly showing Western films, and only five cinemas under its umbrella, and there is not much intersection with other film companies in Hong Kong.
Looking at Zhong Chuhong, and then at Chen Ping'an, Jiang Zhiqiang smiled and sat on the sofa: "Then it's bothering." ”
Zhong Chuhong knew that Chen Ping'an had something to talk to Jiang Zhiqiang, so when he got two cups of tea, he put them in front of the two of them, and planned to go out under the pretext that he forgot to buy something.
"It's okay Ah Hong." Chen Ping'an stretched out his hand and hugged Zhong Chuhong on his lap. Zhong Chuhong's face was flushed, and Jiang Zhiqiang was dumbfounded: "Brother Chen, you are ......"
"Ah Hong is my woman, Brother Jiang is his own person, I'm not afraid that Brother Jiang will know."
"Who's your woman!" Zhong Chuhong broke free in embarrassment, put on a coat and changed into shoes, and hurriedly ran out of the room.
Zhong Chuhong sat in the lobby to rest, absentmindedly flipping through the magazines. I kept complaining that Jiang Zhiqiang came to visit so late, and even complained that Chen Ping'an didn't understand the amorous feelings, and he actually chatted with Jiang Zhiqiang for so long.
Tasting the taste of being a woman for the first time, she is very nostalgic for the happiness that Chen Ping'an brought her. Chen Ping'an changed her from a girl to a woman, and also let her taste the wonderfulness of it. The two have been alone for more than ten days, without worrying about being discovered by the media, just like ordinary lovers, enjoying the good times in love.
The two of them were warm in the room tonight, she was already emotionally touched by Chen Ping'an's kiss and caresse, but she was interrupted by Jiang Zhiqiang's visit. It's been more than an hour, and the two of them are still chatting in the room, which makes her so bothered.
At about eleven o'clock in the evening, Jiang Zhiqiang came down. Seeing him walk out of the hotel, Zhong Chuhong immediately ran back to the room and saw Chen Ping'an looking at the cigar proudly, and the room was filled with a strong cigar smell.
"I said I wasn't allowed to smoke in my room!" snatched the cigar and extinguished it in the ashtray, Zhong Chuhong ran to the window and opened the window, and then lay on the bed with his clothes, "I'm going to sleep, don't touch me tonight." ”
"Alright then, I'll take a shower."
Chen Ping'an walked to the bathroom, and after a while, there was a sound of running water. Zhong Chuhong pouted, tossed and turned on the bed, and finally pulled the quilt over his body, deciding that he really wouldn't let Chen Ping'an touch him tonight.
A few minutes later, the quilt was pulled open.
"I said you weren't to touch me tonight...... Ah, you scoundrel! ”
Chen Ping'an stood naked by the bed, the words under her crotch dangled in front of her eyes, and she was so shocked that she covered her eyes with a scream, her face flushed.
"What's there to be shy about, what's on me that you haven't seen?" Chen Ping'an got into bed with a smile and unbuttoned her clothes, "Go take a bath, take a bath and go to bed after taking a bath." ”
Zhong Chuhong was stripped naked by Chen Ping'an after half pushing and refusing, and was picked up by Chen Ping'an and walked to the bathroom. "What are you doing? I'll just wash it myself, and you can sleep. ”
"I didn't wash it either, let's take another mandarin duck bath."
The bubble bath in the bathroom bathtub was ready, Chen Ping'an sat in it with Zhong Chuhong in his arms, and massaged his hands back and forth on his body. At first, Zhong Chuhong deliberately refused, Chen Ping'an stroked the sensitive areas of her body a few times, and after a while, she was flushed and began to gasp.
I don't know why, in the bubble bath and Zhong Chuhong, Chen Ping'an suddenly thought of a similar scene in "Fire Dance...... I don't know where Zhang Min is now.
When the two came out of the bathroom, there were bubbles all over the bathroom. The "stormy waves" set off by the two passions splashed bubbles and water everywhere in the bathtub. Zhong Chuhong was held in Chen Ping'an's arms, and she hooked the latter's neck with a flushed face, and buried her face in the other party's shoulder, which was greatly satisfied.
Lying on the bed, she whispered and chatted with Chen Ping'an, and suddenly found that Chen Ping'an's hands began to be dishonest again, rubbing back and forth in her private places and sensitive areas. "I hate it, I just took a shower, don't mess around again."
This kind of resistance was powerless, Chen Ping'an hugged her, let her lie on top of him, and then ......
Zhong Chuhong, who had been in the rain for three times, was already sour and weak, snuggled in Chen Ping'an's arms, and murmured: "You seem to be very excited today." ”
She wasn't wrong, Chen Ping'an was very excited tonight because of Jiang Zhiqiang.
After nearly two hours of chatting, Jiang Zhiqiang was moved by his grand blueprint and finally agreed to join his Dark Horse International. In Chen Ping'an's huge entertainment empire, film distribution and theater management are important links. In later generations, Jiang Zhiqiang, who was named "Asia's Best Producer", was the best choice.
In the past, he had to keep a low profile and make false promises with the Shaw Brothers, but he did not have enough strength to convince Jiang Zhiqiang, the second son of Anle Film Company. But now it is different, he has signed a theater sales contract with Shaw Brothers, and he will be able to win the eight theaters with better locations under Shaw Brothers just by waiting for the funds to arrive. When the time comes, after the acquisition of a few independent theaters, the dark horse cinema chain of more than a dozen theaters will be freshly baked.
So this time, he showed his existing strength and vision for the future in front of Jiang Zhiqiang, outlining a huge blueprint for him. Then throw an olive branch, with a sincere attitude, generous conditions, sincerely invite the other party to create a better future with yourself.
The words were full of emotion, and Jiang Zhiqiang's heart was surging and excited.
Jiang Zhiqiang is not a hairy boy, at the age of 32, he began to help his family manage Anle Pictures this year, and has his own opinions on the entertainment industry. The dark horse international in his impression is just a very good film company, and several movies shot after its establishment are well received, but the scale is not large, and there are few employees and artists, at most, it is to take out spare money to establish a joint venture with Luo Dayou to establish a record company.
But tonight, when he heard that Anne Hurd, Cameron, Zhang Guozhong, Li Xiaolin, Luo Dayou, Li Zongsheng, Ye Zhiming and other professionals in different aspects, they quietly gathered around Chen Ping'an. Record companies, agent companies, investment companies, American film companies, etc. have either begun to operate, or are on the agenda and are in preparation, this time I really feel Chen Ping'an's ambition and domineering.
What shocked him even more was Chen Ping'an's vision of the future, and he heard the term "cultural invasion" for the first time. Chen Ping'an told him that in the future, Dark Horse International will send outstanding Hong Kong filmmakers to the United States, open up the American market with oriental film culture, and then cultivate new outstanding film talents from Hong Kong, forming a good cycle, and finally realizing cultural invasion, making Chinese films stand at the top of the world, and making Hong Kong and Hollywood compete and become a global film mecca!
In the end, Jiang Zhiqiang agreed, invested 2.5 million yuan, and Chen Ping'an established Dark Horse International Film Distribution Company, and got 25% of the shares. Chen Ping'an invested 7.5 million yuan and owned 75% of the company's shares. At the same time, Chen Ping'an manages the upcoming dark horse cinema line for Chen Ping'an, and in return, Chen Ping'an will issue 5% of the company's shares and distribute them to him as dry shares, so that he can enjoy 30% dividends every year.
Although Jiang Zhiqiang said before leaving, he said that he would discuss with his father and brother before he could give Chen Ping'an a final answer, but both of them were like mirrors in their hearts, and the two had reached an agreement, and discussing with their father and brother was just an attitude.
Next year, Chen Ping'an's dark horse empire will really anchor!
Chen Ping'an played with Zhong Chuhong's plump breasts and said with a smile: "Ah Hong, did anyone tell you that you have a prosperous husband?" ”
"Really? Will you marry me? ”
