Hearing that the sixth uncle wanted benefits, Li Mingbao smiled, what he was most afraid of was not that the sixth uncle wanted benefits, but that the sixth uncle and a few of them would not be interested in Li Mingbao's idea at all, so it would be useless for him to make this matter bigger. www.biquge.info To put it bluntly, Li Mingbao doesn't have this ability yet. By the time Li Mingbao has the ability to do this, the situation will not be as good as it is now.

"If you want to say that the benefits are not small, they are definitely not small, and they are real benefits. The more shares there are, the greater the benefits. Even if you have a small stake, it is not completely without benefits. Seriously, I've been thinking about this circulation port for more than a day or two, and I've been thinking about it when I'm in the mainland. When I came back, I felt that this project was really interesting.

Don't look at the current Hong Kong movies in the sales port, it is very advantageous, no matter which region in East Asia, Hong Kong movies are a good signboard. But this situation can't be too long, because the film market in other places can't always be like the current one.

Especially in a developed region like Japan, in their film market, as long as one person can stand up and challenge, with their capital, it is really easy to make this industry bigger. The film market, to put it bluntly, is not much different from the capital market. Where capital is strong, they can do anything easily, and it doesn't matter if they lose a little. They can afford to lose, but like us in Hong Kong, if a company loses millions of dollars, except for the company in your hands, Uncle Six, most of the other film companies will have to go out of business.

But the film company in that place in Japan, even if it is a small company, losing millions of Hong Kong dollars is not a big deal, to put it bluntly, their capital makes them afford to lose. Under such circumstances, the future of Hong Kong films will not be too optimistic. It won't be too long to make money like now, as long as it touches the bottom line of their home market, it will not be easy for Hong Kong films to make money again.

In fact, a large market like Japan may have the highest tolerance for our Hong Kong films, because their total capital is very large, and the tolerance is very high. But in some less economically developed areas, their tolerance is very low, and maybe a few movies can make them vigilant. And among the largest markets for Hong Kong's films, there are few economic good places at all.

Especially in Southeast Asia, many countries have a very low tolerance, their total capital is not large, and if the box office of Hong Kong films is much higher than the local box office, and it is not for a short time, then their local companies will definitely take action. As long as there is an administrative restriction, Hong Kong's films are prone to problems, and at least there is one less box office. If it causes a chain reaction, how many more will there be in Hong Kong's external market?

Therefore, everyone should not look at the current Hong Kong films to cheer when they enter other markets, after all, this will not last long. Relying on the local market alone, it is difficult to develop Hong Kong films to a certain height. For the sake of the future, I came up with such a way to circulate the port. To be a circulation port is actually to let films from other places provide cover for our Hong Kong films, or to equalize interests, so that Hong Kong films can last for a long time. When Li Mingbao said this, his mouth was also a little dry, and he directly picked up the tea in front of him and poured it into his mouth.

Li Mingbao's words directly made the sixth uncle and their faces full of cold sweat. To be honest, if Li Mingbao hadn't talked about this matter, the sixth uncle and they wouldn't have thought of this worry at all. Because as far as the current Hong Kong movies are concerned, there is no need to consider these issues at all. It's only time now, eighty-three years. Hong Kong films have gone to the whole of East Asia, and the time for large-scale development has not yet begun. When a large amount of money really entered the Hong Kong film market, in history, it was after 85 years.

Even though Li Mingbao has made a few blockbuster films, in general, Hong Kong's film market is still in its infancy. Even the Xiang brothers, when they enter this industry, hobbies are more important than the idea of making money. So as for the issue that it may be boycotted by the external market in the future, they don't even think about it, even this idea has not yet arisen, even Zou Wenhuai is only happy about Hong Kong films opening up the external market at this time, as for the boycott, hehe, thinking too much.

But after Li Mingbao raised this issue, the sixth uncle and they really saw the hidden worries in this regard. Although it is a bit unfounded to discuss this issue now, I have to say that if Hong Kong's film market becomes more and more hot, it is natural that there will be a situation like that Li Mingbao said. This is like Hong Kong now, if there are foreign film companies that want to make money in Hong Kong, even if they haven't made it yet, Uncle Six will be vigilant.

Since the sixth uncle and they can all have such thoughts, whether local filmmakers in other places have such thoughts, it is simply a lice on the monk's head, an obvious thing. Maybe except for the current Hollywood, there is no other market that will let go of the view of the door, but even Hollywood is not as open as outsiders imagine. If Li Mingbao hadn't caught up with the 20th Century Fox Company, he would not have developed faster in Hollywood than other foreign companies.

"Although Li Sheng, you are a little too early to think about this issue now, I have to say that such a thing will definitely happen. If Hong Kong films are too strong, they will definitely crowd out the market for local films, and it is not surprising what kind of moves their local film bosses will make. Li Sheng is still thoughtful, if it weren't for Li Sheng, you mentioned this matter, we wouldn't have thought of the hidden dangers in this at all. Zou Wenhuai said with a heavy face.

"In the past, Hong Kong movies may not be too aggressive. But now with the ability of United Cinemas to automatically select films, the rise of Hong Kong films will be many times faster than before. So this problem will be faster than we think. Li Mingbao dropped another bomb.

In the era of the three major cinema chains, selling ports is basically solved by relationships, and it is not once or twice that there are good films like Lei Juekun's boss who can't sell them at a price. However, after the establishment of the United Cinema Line, it is equivalent to the external market of Hong Kong films, and the price has been unified. Because of the guarantee of the box office of United Cinemas, whether you are a Golden Harvest movie, a New Arts City movie, or a Shaw Brothers movie, if you can stand the test of United Cinemas, the quality of the movie will be good, and high-quality Hong Kong movies will also have a good market in the external market.

In this way, it is basically impossible for film buyers to reduce prices. For movies with the same box office, if you have a price for Golden Harvest and a price for Xinyi City, Lei Juekun will not pay attention to you at all, unless the same price, otherwise how far you will go. If in the past, Hong Kong high-quality films still needed to be seen by the buyers themselves, then the current United Cinema Line undoubtedly minimizes the risk of testing the vision, and the brainless selection of films is not terrifying, but the horror is that according to the system of the United Cinema Line, Hong Kong's good movies will not be released occasionally like before, but will appear like an assembly line.

One or two films can't cause much impact, and the impact of eight out of ten won't be too big, as long as the strength of the film buyer is strong, not many people will care. But the problem is that a batch of good films like United Cinemas, just like the assembly line work of Hollywood, good films will not be just a little, at least hundreds of good films a year, such a market, whoever doesn't pay attention to it is really a fool. The difference between the assembly line and the personal workshop, the sixth uncle will not not understand.

At this time, the sixth uncle also understood a little why Li Mingbao proposed the circulation of Hong Kong, because there are so many movies, the local market in Hong Kong is completely indigestible, and only by going out can they ensure profits. In the past, one or two movies were considered successful, but the problem is that now the movies that need to go out are not just one or two, but in batches. Even if the Japanese market is hit by so many good films, the local film company bosses will not be able to stand it, not to mention other vulnerable regions, either completely fall, or directly break the legs of Hong Kong films, and the local market completely bans Hong Kong films, except for these two methods, there is no third way to go.

Hong Kong movies are not Hollywood, and if you want to completely collapse the film market in those countries, movies are actually a secondary thing, and what really matters is political strength. But does Hong Kong have such political power? Obviously, it is impossible to have it, so the British will not use their connections to escort Hong Kong films, and the current situation in the mainland, it is also a delusion to want to guarantee Hong Kong, as for Wanwan, it will be more fun, he can't afford to provoke anything, diplomacy is supported by money, and he can at most open up Taiwan's local market, as for other markets, Wanwan's ability is far behind.

After understanding that Hong Kong films have completely different abilities because of the establishment of United Cinemas, Uncle Six and they also began to worry. With the manufacturing capacity of United Cinemas, the Hong Kong domestic market cannot provide such a large amount of nutrients at all. At that time, the system may be good, but whether it can really succeed is still two words, maybe the rapid development of the United Cinema Line will completely drag the local market to death, and it is not impossible.

At this time, the sixth uncle also wanted to know whether the circulation port plan proposed by Li Mingbao could completely solve the problem.

"Li Sheng, your brain is flexible, now that the United Cinema Line has been established, it has basically brought the Hong Kong film market to the crossroads, since you can see the problem and put forward your own ideas, I don't know if you, the so-called circulation port, can completely solve the problem of the market?" The sixth uncle asked Li Mingbao in an expectant tone.

If you want to talk about what kind of predicament the Hong Kong film market is facing after the establishment of United Cinemas, the sixth uncle has completely figured it out by now. One is the market problem, and the other is the production capacity problem.

To put it simply, the current United Cinema Line is a bit overcapacity for Hong Kong, and judging from the speed of the United Cinema Chain, it may not be long before the entire Hong Kong film industry will not be able to replenish so many new film sources. If there is a way out, there is only the idea of playing the outside card.

This is a problem of production capacity, as for the market problem, it is even more prominent, in terms of the current customer market in Hong Kong, it is completely insufficient for the joint cinema chain to digest, and the population problem is a hard injury.
