Did Uncle Six say this well? Of course it's good, so good that even Li Mingbao didn't believe that such words came out of the mouth of the sixth uncle. If it were a different person, Li Mingbao would definitely think that he was talking to him from the bottom of his heart, so he would burn yellow paper and worship the head of the chicken.
But the problem is that this was said by the sixth uncle, so Li Mingbao felt weird and felt very unreal. Can this be true? Cinema is this thing, although everyone is talking about it, and they all know the importance of this thing to movies. Li Mingbao also drooled over Hong Kong's cinema chains.
But are Hong Kong's cinemas so easy to win? The three bosses directly controlled the vast majority of the money-making cinemas in Hong Kong, and the remaining cinemas were either not large-scale or too large, and they were old cinemas in the past, and it was difficult to change them now.
The four or five movie theaters in Li Mingbao's hands are such things. In addition to these cinemas, there is another outlier in Hong Kong, that is, leftist cinemas. Hong Kong's cinema chains can actually be divided into four major cinema chains, the other three are Shaw Brothers, Golden Harvest, Golden Princess, and the rest are leftist cinemas.
One of the reasons why many times people don't put leftist cinemas in Hong Kong as a whole is that leftist cinemas have a very heavy political meaning, and you don't want to go to Taiwan to make money for the movies released here. At the beginning, Uncle Six's Shaw Brothers movies encountered such troubles, and in the end, Uncle Six came forward to communicate, not to mention other Hong Kong filmmakers whose foundation was far worse than Uncle Six.
Taiwan in these days and months is a big box office in Hong Kong, and even the current Li Mingbao doesn't want his movies to be released in Taiwan in trouble. Although Taiwan's box office is not at the same level as Li Mingbao's money in the American circle, at least it can't be regarded as a mosquito leg, and it has the treatment of chicken legs.
In addition, the leftist cinema release film review is strict, which is a hundred times more exaggerated than the bare game of later generations, and the scenes connecting the kiss have to be cut, with the style of Hong Kong movies, if you want to go to the leftist cinema to be released, then don't think about screening it at all if it is not cut messily.
In this way, leftist cinemas have not shown all types of movies, at least the current Hong Kong movies, they have to get stuck in more than half of the themes. Such a theater is completely entertaining itself, if it weren't for the financial support of Big 6, it would have been impossible to open a long time ago.
There is a lot of trouble, but the box office is pitiful, and it is worse than chicken ribs. Therefore, most of the time, Hong Kong people count Hong Kong's cinema chains, but they don't count leftist cinema chains at all, and treat them as a transparent storage zĂ i, with no intersection with the mainland.
In general, the only theaters that can really speak in Hong Kong are Shaw Brothers, Golden Harvest, and Golden Princess. As long as Hong Kong filmmakers reach a certain status, no one will fail to see that Hong Kong films are in the hands of theaters.
This is the strange thing about Li Mingbao. As a person who does not have a cinema chain, if he wants to make a difference in the Hong Kong film industry, then getting the cinema chain is a step that must be taken. Li Mingbao didn't think it was strange for others to say these things to Li Mingbao, but the sixth uncle, a person with vested interests, considered Li Mingbao like this, which was a joke. Don't forget, what Uncle Six is holding in his hand now is the current leader of the Hong Kong film industry, Shaw Brothers Cinemas.
Such a person, if he is strictly guarded and does not discuss any cinema matters with Li Mingbao at all, that is what Uncle Six should do. But like now, it seems that he is completely thinking about Li Mingbao, which is really weird.
Doesn't Uncle Six know? Don't look at the current Shaw Brothers Cinema Line is still the leading boss of the Hong Kong film industry, but when it comes to potential, even a half-baked cinema like Princess Jin has more potential than Shaw Brothers. The current situation of Shaw Brothers Cinemas can be summed up in an old saying, that is, the gold and jade are outside, and they are ruined. As long as there is an external force, the first of the three major cinema chains to fall is definitely the Shaw Brothers Cinema Line.
With the shrewdness of the sixth uncle, it is impossible not to think of this, so talking about catching the cinema in front of Li Mingbao, a fierce dragon who crosses the river, is like happily putting himself in the pot of the gray wolf, and he doesn't take the kind of escape.
Li Mingbao, who couldn't figure out the situation at all, really didn't know how to answer in the face of such straightforward words from the sixth uncle? Say you don't have any idea about theaters at all? Don't say that others don't believe it, Li Mingbao himself doesn't believe it.
If he really has no idea, he will put the money back to Hong Kong for Mao? This is the lice on the monk's head, an obvious thing, if you can't fool a child, let alone say it in front of an old fox like Uncle Six?
But if Li Mingbao wants to be as honest as Sixth Uncle, it is not a good idea. The best cinema line to make an idea is the Shaw Brothers Cinema Line, and now facing the boss of the Shaw Brothers Cinema Line planning the Shaw Brothers Cinema Line, doesn't this make it clear that the sixth uncle is given eye medicine? The sixth uncle has never been a generous person, especially when someone is planning his own industry, so he is not a good person.
At the beginning, Zou Wenhuai took away the people and creativity of "One-Armed Knife", and the sixth uncle also fought a lawsuit with Zou Wenhuai for so many years knowing that there would be no result, and in the end, the sixth uncle and Zou Wenhuai did not take any advantage, but fattened those lawyers who fought the lawsuit. In this way, the sixth uncle has not given up.
At the beginning, Zou Wenhuai only got some resources in the hands of the sixth uncle, but now Li Mingbao is planning the industry of the sixth uncle's family, and he really wants to find out the matter, even if the sixth uncle is well-cultivated now, and Li Mingbao has been in a lawsuit for ten years, the sixth uncle is not unable to do it.
The most important thing is that the sixth uncle is a rare longevity, and he is still in charge of the company for two thousand years. Fighting a lawsuit with such a person, even Li Mingbao feels that his head is big, although he will definitely be able to survive the sixth uncle, but Nima's thirty years of suffering, who would be happy to enjoy such a situation? Anyway, Li Mingbao didn't want to gamble his youth on the sixth uncle's tomorrow, it would be too torturous.
After Li Mingbao opened his mouth, he thought of countless possibilities in his mind, but the problem is that in the current situation, Li Mingbao couldn't think of it before, and suddenly wanted to find a suitable way, Li Mingbao really couldn't do it.
Especially when the sixth uncle did not express his attitude, no matter how Li Mingbao answered, there would be no good results. The most important thing is that Li Mingbao can't say anything to Uncle Six yet, because when Uncle Six said this, he was completely thinking about Li Mingbao, what else could Li Mingbao say? It's not the same thing to say right or wrong, how does this answer Li Mingbao?
"Hehe, Uncle Six's words really opened my eyes. How can you say this kind of thing in theaters...... "Nima, Lao Tzu really doesn't know how to say it, Li Mingbao thought viciously in his heart.
When Li Mingbao said this, he didn't know how to continue. Uncle Six's words were so desperate that Li Mingbao couldn't find any good excuse to talk about other topics.
Seeing Li Mingbao's embarrassed face, the sixth uncle still had a kind face.
"Li Sheng, speak freely. Some details, don't think too much. If you really want to enter this industry, cinemas are indeed indispensable. And the cinema chain is limited to the topography and population of Hong Kong, and there is a fixed number.
And now our Shaw Brothers, plus Golden Harvest and Golden Princess, have basically drawn Hong Kong's cinema chains into the group. Li Sheng: If you want to start a business and lay a solid foundation, you must start with these three theaters. Although I am the boss of the Shaw Brothers Cinema Line, now that I am thinking about you Li Sheng, then I have to consider the problem from your standpoint, just talk, and you don't have to worry too much. â
Hearing the words of the sixth uncle, Li Mingbao's whole person was completely bad, not too careful, Lao Tzu is not too careful, but Lao Tzu is not too careful, will your sixth uncle not be careful? You said that you are the boss of the Shaw Brothers Cinema Line, but now I want to talk to you about the Cinema Line with a frank and announced face, isn't this a weasel giving a New Year's greeting to a chicken?
The dog weather, especially in Hong Kong, is always hot, even if there is air conditioning in Uncle Six's office, and the temperature is very suitable for an old man like Uncle Six, but for Li Mingbao, the temperature is still a little high. In addition, the things we are talking about now are really not good topics, and after a while, beads of sweat on Li Mingbao's head flowed.
Li Mingbao wiped the paper towel on the coffee table on his face, and the paper towel was completely soaked with sweat, looking at the wet paper towel on his hand, Li Mingbao couldn't help but laugh and said: "This weather is really hot, even if there is air conditioning, I can't stand it." â
Seeing Li Mingbao's appearance, the sixth uncle pretended to be concerned and said: "Li Sheng is young and a little angry, unlike us old guys, who are afraid of cold and not afraid of heat. In fact, the heart is calm and naturally cool, Li Sheng, your heart is upset.
As I said before, I'm thinking about Li Sheng now, and some of my other identities basically don't have much meaning at this time. I know that the topic of cinemas is a little sensitive, especially when it comes to theaters from my mouth, which is not a good thing for you Li Sheng.
But since Li Sheng opened your mouth before and asked the sixth uncle to help you, the sixth uncle can't be ambiguous, and naturally wants to give you a good explanation. Playing movies in Hong Kong, cinemas are definitely not a topic that can be bypassed, so I still have to say what I should say, as for Li Sheng, what do you think, I don't need to worry about it. â
Li Mingbao now really feels that it was a huge mistake to let the sixth uncle come to the staff officer. The fox was in front of the hen discussing how to steal the hen's eggs, which was not a good thing in the first place. Even with Li Mingbao's thick skin, discussing this topic in front of the sixth uncle still felt embarrassed.
But Uncle Sixth has repeatedly said that he is discussing this issue in the words of outsiders, which shows that Uncle Six's words today are very problematic. As I said before, the sixth uncle and the sixth aunt are actually the same virtue, that is, stinginess.
It's not unusual for a stingy person to repeatedly talk about his own fat problem in front of a guy who is watching his family business. If the sixth uncle only said it once, it would have been forgotten, and now that the sixth uncle is still talking about this matter. It can be regarded as provoking Li Mingbao's anger, don't you want to say it, sixth uncle? It doesn't matter if you're courting or something else, since you're going to say it, I'll follow suit. Anyway, I'm afraid of it, and when it comes to this topic, Li Mingbao won't suffer.
