Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
With such an idea, Li Mingbao's first idea hit the head of the sixth uncle and six aunts. If you want to come to the whole line, the most difficult bone to gnaw on is actually Li Mingbao's old club Shaw Brothers.
The previous two movies, with the support of Shaw Brothers, earned Li Mingbao's first pot of gold. And now that I have fallen out with Shaw Brothers, and if I want to come to the full line again, the joint to be opened is the old club of Shaw Brothers.
If the person in charge of the Shaw Brothers is a high-spirited person, Li Mingbao can't use more effort, but the problem is that the helmsman of the Shaw Brothers is the sixth uncle, and the sixth uncle is a smart person, and he knows how to make trade-offs, so if Li Mingbao really wants to talk, he may not be able to talk about a good result. In addition, among the actors used by Li Mingbao this time, they are basically Shaw Brothers actors.
Even in order to make these actors appreciate, Uncle Six has to seriously consider this issue, whether it is worth continuing to cooperate. As long as the sixth uncle has such an idea, Li Mingbao will let the sixth uncle speak sooner or later. As long as the matter on the sixth uncle's side is done, it will be much easier to deal with Boss Lei on the side of Princess Jin.
After all, Boss Lei said that he wanted to cooperate before, and now releasing a movie by Li Mingbao is not the beginning of cooperation. As long as you use this to top him, there is basically no problem, plus Li Mingbao's movie has a strong ability to make money, for Boss Lei, who lacks funds, this movie is also fat, and he can't give it up.
Having made up his mind to let the sixth uncle compromise, Li Mingbao naturally couldn't continue to hang out with Wu Yusen and them. Besides, although the crew is now established, some people only have the director and some leading actors, and Wu Yusen himself needs to be responsible for other behind-the-scenes things.
Li Mingbao wants to be here, then Wu Yusen will definitely throw a lot of trouble to Li Mingbao, who called Li Mingbao rich and powerful, compared to Wu Yusen, who only has a name, Li Mingbao's advantage is too obvious.
But Li Mingbao can't let everything be on his own, it's not that Li Mingbao is afraid of trouble, it's really the person Li Mingbao finds when the time comes, and it may not be suitable for Wu Yusen. Only the people Wu Yusen found himself will meet his own requirements, a movie, especially a director like Wu Yusen, what they need is a challenge.
Wu Yusen has been idle in Jiahe for nine years, and if he doesn't move again, he will be moldy. Li Mingbao also believes that Wu Yusen can solve those troubles himself, and since he can solve the troubles, Li Mingbao can't go beyond the line and limit Wu Yusen's strength.
It's better to solve some problems that Wu Yusen can't solve, so that the time of the entire crew can be used faster. Wu Yusen is inside, and Li Mingbao is outside. If the division of labor is clear first, then the run-in time will be much less.
After Li Mingbao told Wu Yusen his thoughts, Wu Yusen also felt that Li Mingbao's idea was very good, although there would be a lot of troubles in the crew, but these troubles Wu Yusen himself could overcome, but it took time. And such a big problem as an external business is indeed not something that a person like Wu Yusen can handle. Let Li Mingbao do it, not only quickly, but also let Wu Yusen leave some burdens that he can't afford at all.
Now that he and Wu Yusen have agreed, Li Mingbao began to prepare for the negotiations. In the U.S., a lawyer is required for any negotiation. But in Hong Kong, although the lawyer industry is also good, such a thing is not within the scope of the lawyer's service, coupled with the embarrassing problem between Li Mingbao and the sixth uncle, no matter how good the lawyer is, if the two parties are not present, even if they wear out their mouths, it is useless.
If Li Mingbao wanted to see Uncle Sixth before, he could go directly to Uncle Six's office, but now, if Li Mingbao wants to see Uncle Six, it will be a lot of trouble, and he needs to call Uncle Six first, greet him, and then talk about business.
Fortunately, the communication with Uncle Six this time was quite smooth, and Uncle Six also agreed to meet Li Mingbao in his office the next day. The next day, Li Mingbao came to the sixth uncle's office with some gifts.
Although the things to be talked about are all serious things, the previous things have left some incense, the sixth uncle is older, and Li Mingbao also needs to be a junior. In a humane society, we can't be like the West, where talking about the right thing is talking about the right thing. Although there are favors in the West, it is not as subtle as in the East.
At least in the East, you can't argue to the point of using a knife over a contract one minute, and the next minute because the matter is over, you immediately drink to celebrate. Easterners are not as off-line as Westerners.
Sixth Uncle here, although Li Mingbao is not a frequent visitor, he has been here a few times, so he is quite familiar. When I entered the sixth uncle's office, as usual, the sixth uncle and the sixth aunt were both there. So Li Mingbao put down the gift and greeted the sixth uncle and six aunts.
The sixth uncle was calm, and he smiled when he saw Li Mingbao greeting him, but the sixth aunt didn't have such a good temperament, and when she saw Li Mingbao, she pretended to be unintentional and said: "Boss Li has been prosperous recently, and this is going to make a blockbuster again, which makes our Shaw Brothers so envious, Shaw Brothers can't open the pot recently, so I don't know if Boss Li has anything to take care of?" ”
Hearing Aunt Liu's slightly sarcastic words, how could Li Mingbao not know Aunt Liu's resentment? But in business, it is naturally impossible to stiffen as soon as you open your mouth. So Li Mingbao replied with a smile: "Aunt Sixth said that I was joking, I am just a little person, I have no money to spend recently, so I can only make a movie and mix some pocket money, where can it be compared to the great business of the Shaw family?" If you want to take care of it, only the sixth uncle can take care of our juniors, where is there room for our juniors to intervene! ”
Li Mingbao's words are also hidden needles, and he can be regarded as returning to the sixth aunt once.
At this time, the sixth uncle finally spoke: "Li Sheng, I also know that you have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, this time you came to me, there must be something going on." It's better to talk about it and let's look into it. If Uncle Six can help, then there will definitely be no ambiguity, but if I can't help, Uncle Six and I can't do anything.
You also know that when a person reaches a certain age, like the sixth uncle, his energy will inevitably be a little lacking, so please Li Sheng, you can make a long story short. ”
Hearing the words of the sixth uncle, Li Mingbao was really powerless to complain. As far as he knows, the most energetic is probably the only sixth uncle in front of him who says that he is not energetic. There is no second person in the world who can still be a CEO at the age of 100, saying that he is not energetic, that is, he is lying to ghosts, and ghosts will not believe it.
But since the sixth uncle said that he was not energetic and wanted Li Mingbao to still wander around on this issue, the sixth uncle would definitely sweep Li Mingbao out of the house. So Li Mingbao said straight to the point: "This time I came to Uncle Six, in fact, I wanted to talk to Uncle Six about a money-making deal. ”
Li Mingbao knew that in front of Uncle Shao, it was absolutely difficult to say other things, only when it came to the issue of making money, Uncle Sixth would have the spirit, so Li Mingbao also did what he liked and said to make money.
If there is another person who likes to achieve, then Li Mingbao will say that there is an opportunity to open a new era to share with others. Anyway, when dealing with others, the most important thing is to do what they like. If you like money, then talk to him about money, and if you like fame, talk to him.
"Profitable trading? Li Sheng, you really have a heart, this lucrative business is willing to share with me, an old man. Run Run Shaw said quietly.
But although Run Run Shaw was quiet, Li Mingbao understood that Run Run Shaw was really motivated. Otherwise, Run Run Shaw would not have said such nonsense, which is definitely good news for Li Mingbao.
"Of course, in my current achievements, there is the sixth uncle to take care of you, and there are profitable transactions, so naturally you can't get around the sixth uncle. About my new movie, I think Uncle Six, you also know, what I want to talk about is my new movie. Li Mingbao said.
"New movie, don't mention your new movie, I'm angry when I talk about it. You kid is here to take advantage of our Shaw Brothers, look at the people you invited, the actors are basically our Shaw Brothers, and the venue is also our Shaw Brothers, even if those are behind the scenes, you will probably use our Shaw Brothers.
You're completely taking advantage of our Shaw Brothers, and you haven't even settled accounts with you, so you bring up this matter. I'm going to see what you're trying to say. Without waiting for the sixth uncle to speak, the sixth aunt said with an angry look at this time.
It's not the first time I've dealt with Li Mingbao with the sixth uncle and sixth aunt, why don't I understand that the sixth uncle and the sixth aunt are singing in the old drama again? He used to be squeezed by the drama of the sixth uncle singing red face and the sixth aunt singing white face. And now it is obvious that the sixth uncle is singing red-faced again, and the sixth aunt is naturally singing white-faced, such a match has basically penetrated into their bones, and they are a perfect match.
If you haven't befriended the sixth uncle and six aunts, if you are scolded by the sixth aunt like this, you will definitely mess up. But it is not the first time that Li Mingbao and the sixth uncle and six aunts have dealt with each other, so they did not look at the sixth aunt's scolding behavior. But after all, the sixth aunt has spoken, and Li Mingbao has to explain it somewhat, otherwise she really doesn't give the sixth aunt face, and the sixth aunt likes to do the slapping of her face, but Li Mingbao assured Marx that the sixth aunt will never like others to slap her in the face.
"Sixth aunt, you can't say that, I use the people of the Shaw Brothers, and it's not that I don't give money. And the price is also given high, and they are not disadvantaged. Besides, Aunt Six, you also know that I still have some ability to film. When this drama is released, those people will not only get money, but also profit. is completely training actors for the Shaw Brothers, so how can I be regarded as taking advantage of the Shaw Brothers? Li Mingbao pretended to be aggrieved and said.
