Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

Li Mingbao used to wear the same pants with Shaw Brothers, so even if Zou Wenhuai had any ideas, it was just an idea. But now it's different, although Li Mingbao still has some relationship with Shaw Brothers, and even Li Mingbao's brother Li Minghui is still working as a director on wireless, but the crack between Li Mingbao and the sixth uncle is already very deep.

The deepening of the rift made it difficult for Li Mingbao to obtain the same benefits as he did on the Shaw Brothers' side. In this way, Shaw Brothers not only abandoned themselves, but also pushed out the genius of Li Mingbao. So far, Zou Wenhuai's idea has been proven, so how can Zou Wenhuai not pay attention to Li Mingbao and the first opportunity to cooperate with Li Mingbao?

Li Mingbao is not Zou Wenhuai, so now he is still a lonely man in Hong Kong, although he makes a lot of money, but there are still not many people who can use it, Jiang Zhiqiang is in the United States, the eldest brother not only manages the family's catering industry, but also has to do work for Li Mingbao's acquisition of Hong Kong's free theater, and he can't spare manpower at all.

And Li Mingbao's second brother is a relatively pure person, and he may have some ideas about TV dramas and movies, but when dealing with external affairs, the second brother Li Minghui does not have this ability, at least not now. And the third brother and the fourth brother have the ability to return to the ability, but the industry they did before is completely out of line with what Li Mingbao is doing now, so even if Li Mingbao wants to find his brother for help, he can't do it for the time being.

It is not so easy to cultivate a qualified assistant, and the relationship between Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang is also an old friendship for decades, so that there can be a tacit understanding now, but the time of Li Mingbao's family is too short, and it is really difficult to get such a tacit understanding and assistant.

So this time I went to Jiahe, Li Mingbao still drove the car by himself and went to Jiahe alone. When he arrived at Jiahe, Zou Wenhuai personally came forward to welcome Li Mingbao to his office, and then made tea and poured water, which was very courteous.

"Li Sheng, this is the end of the New Year, you have arrived at our Golden Harvest, it seems that Li Sheng, you are preparing to set off another storm in Hong Kong. I don't know what Li Sheng is going to do with this cooperation? ”

Seeing that Zou Wenhuai was so polite, Li Mingbao didn't take it seriously. Others can give themselves such treatment because they have to give themselves face, and if they want to take it back, they will lose their face. After all, Zou Wenhuai is also a powerful figure in the Hong Kong film industry, and it is not easy to do this as Corporal Lixian, if he is not satisfied, he will slap himself in the face.

"Zou Tycoon, don't say that I'm making any waves, it's just a mess, it seems that I'm in a good situation now, but compared to you guys, I'm actually just a little shrimp. You don't need to be so polite, I'm also an easily satisfied person, if it wasn't for the sixth uncle who did too much, I wouldn't have come out of the Shaw Brothers. You know that, too. Li Mingbao's posture was very low.

Hearing Li Mingbao's evaluation of the sixth uncle, Zou Wenhuai sneered and said: "Sixth uncle, I know him better than you, and I haven't dealt with him once or twice." When I first worked under him, I knew what kind of person he was. At the beginning, he was really optimistic about the movie and made a lot of achievements, which no one can deny.

But with the wireless business later, Uncle Six's heart began to change, and Shaw Brothers became dispensable. He wanted to show it on TV, and his strength later proved that his vision was indeed correct, and now Hong Kong movies are in a recession, but TV is very prosperous.

But for me, film is not just a career, it's an achievement. I'm not the sixth uncle, I can't be as decisive as him, even if there is no money to be made in the movie, I won't let go of this industry, because of my love for this industry.

This love must have been had by the sixth uncle at the beginning, otherwise there would not be the glory of the Shaw Brothers. But now whether the sixth uncle still has it, only he knows. As a tycoon, money becomes the only thing, and as for career and love, it is superfluous for him. Sixth Uncle...... Sixth uncle, now sixth uncle, so strange!! ”

In the end, Zou Wenhuai was very emotional. The grievances between him and the sixth uncle cannot be explained clearly in one or two sentences, and Zou Wenhuai still has a reputation as a betrayer. But if Zou Wenhuai didn't come out of Shaw Brothers at the beginning, maybe the current Hong Kong film industry will be even more declining, and Zou Wenhuai may have a loyal evaluation in Shaw Brothers, but that's not what he Zou Wenhuai wants.

Zou Wenhuai's words also made Li Mingbao very emotional. Speaking of the sixth uncle and Zou Wenhuai, Li Mingbao may be able to comment on it from the perspective of later generations. Uncle Sixth does have a lot of feelings for the film and television industry, but if this feeling is in front of money, it is not so weighty, to put it bluntly, Uncle Sixth likes money more than his career, and he likes the feeling of control more.

In other words, Uncle Sixth is more flexible in his thinking, and when he saw that the movie was not profitable, he went directly to the TV industry for his desire for control, and achieved success. In the eyes of the sixth uncle, the desire for control brought by money is what he cares about the most, and even because of this desire for control, the sixth uncle has not retired until he is more than 100 years old, which is simply a model of workaholism.

As for Zou Wenhuai, for movies, he is more emotionally pure, and even reaches the standard of stubbornness, no matter what the outside world is, he is loyal to the movie, and he will not have any thoughts about other industries, even if other industries are more profitable.

Whether it is Uncle Shao Liu, or Zou Wenhuai, Li Mingbao still has a deep respect, even if Uncle Liu's relationship with him is not so good now, but as two people in the Hong Kong film industry who can't get around, no matter what, these two people are successful.

"Zou Tycoon, the grievances between you and the sixth uncle, as a descendant, I also know a little bit. In fact, between you, to be honest, what led you to become the current situation is a matter of philosophy.

Zou Daheng, you are very specialized in movies, no matter whether the industry is good or bad, you will not give up this industry. Shao Tycoon's brain is more active, he is more concerned about the issue of influence, although Shaw Brothers looked strong at the beginning, but the problem is that the film industry at that time was not so optimistic, so he left himself a way back. And the back road behind him is broader than his front road, so he doesn't care about this front road.

In fact, there is nothing wrong with the two of you, it's just a matter of thinking. If the prospects of the movie were very good at the beginning, maybe Zou Daheng and you and Uncle Shao Liushu would still be working together happily now. This external problem cannot be solved by manpower. Li Mingbao said very sincerely.

"In this Hong Kong, there are very few people in Hong Kong who you can see so thoroughly. The grievances between me and the sixth uncle are actually ideological grievances, and there is nothing right or wrong. And now, Uncle Sixth is his TV tycoon, and I, Zou Wenhuai, am still thriving in the film industry.

Li Sheng, although you are young, you have a very detailed understanding of the things in the circle of Hong Kong, it seems that Li Sheng, you have put a lot of effort into it, and with such thoughts, Li Sheng, you will get ahead sooner or later in this area. Regarding Li Mingbao's words as an outsider, Zou Wenhuai listened to what he wanted to be.

Zou Wenhuai didn't understand this kind of truth, but in Jiahe, or outside, he couldn't hear such words, in Jiahe, even He Guanchang, it was not easy to mention the matter of the sixth uncle and Zou Wenhuai, after all, He Guanchang also came out of the Shaw Brothers at the beginning, and he was not confident enough.

And the outside press or in the eyes of ordinary people rarely talk about such arguments, because such a truthful thing cannot attract the eyes of those who are psychologically dirty. So now, the public case between Uncle Six and Zou Wenhuai was originally clear, but under the interference of countless outside news, it has changed its appearance, and even Zou Wenhuai and Sixth Uncle Shao themselves are sometimes affected by some news from the outside world, and the person who can say such things close to the truth is now Li Mingbao alone.

After this conversation, Zou Wenhuai felt that the relationship between himself and Li Mingbao had become much closer. Li Mingbao is a person who understands himself, and there are not many such people in Hong Kong, Uncle Shao Liushu is one, He Guanchang is one, but Uncle Shao Liushu is now his opponent, and although He Guanchang is close to him, after all, he can only be regarded as Zou Wenhuai's assistant, and even if He Guanchang understands a lot of words, he will not say it to Zou Wenhuai.

And Li Mingbao has now become a new person who appears in front of Zou Wenhuai, although Li Mingbao is still very young, but Li Mingbao's strength can also make Zou Wenhuai look at him squarely, such a person that Zou Wenhuai originally wanted to win over, and now he has become a person who understands him. For Zou Wenhuai, it is really a happy thing.

With the previous in-depth conversation, the mood of both parties has become very relaxed, Li Mingbao is relaxed because Zou Wenhuai now really regards himself as a friend, not just a cooperative partner, and Zou Wenhuai also has such thoughts.

"Li Sheng, this time you came to cooperate with our Golden Harvest, and you are going to make something? Is it like cooperating with Uncle Six, we Jiahe contributed people, and then you cast the script, invested money, and finally opened four or six? Zou Wenhuai began to get involved in the topic.

"In this cooperation, I have a lot of sincerity, and I also need your Jiahe help with something, so this time I will only publish the script, and then I won't care about other things, and the rest of the work will be handed over to you Jiahe to do, and I will just collect some money." Li Mingbao said very frankly.

Hearing Li Mingbao say this, Zou Wenhuai frowned and said, "Only a script? Then Li Sheng, you will be the shopkeeper? Li Sheng, you're not kind, this is not what a friend does. When you were working at Shaw Brothers, weren't you like that? ”
