Chapter 391: Catch You by Surprise

readx;

After the news that United Cinemas announced the circulation port plan and officially screened the first foreign film in half a month, the large companies that were still proud were depressed, especially after hearing that the foreign film actually had a box office of 1 million Hong Kong dollars in one day, those proud companies are really not proud. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

This kind of thing also reflects the good prospects of the Hong Kong film market from the side, and the Hong Kong filmmakers also gave them a clear signal when they screened this foreign film, that is, even if there is no participation of your companies, our Hong Kong film industry can also run the circulation port. This kind of information is obviously a seller's market in Hong Kong, which is completely under the control of the Hong Kong people, and if you don't come, some people will come, and if you want to negotiate conditions, it is impossible at all.

Either you will cooperate obediently, or you will wait for others to cooperate with us, catch up with you from behind, and then snatch all your resources. In this way, those large companies have become in a dilemma, either continue to be proud, and in a short period of time may be able to maintain an advantage over other companies, and then those companies rely on the existence of circulation ports, and the momentum is rapidly surpassing their own companies. Either we should put aside our current attitude and cooperate with Hong Kong in a restrained way for the sake of interests, so as to make up for this mistake.

Emotionally, companies that can be proud of Hong Kong, they can't let go of their figure at all, and if they want to let go, they will already let go, so why wait until now to be ridiculed? But intellectually, from a businessman's point of view, working against the circulation port plan is actually getting along with his own banknotes, and now who doesn't know that the circulation port of the United Cinema Line has a great future? The box office of one million Hong Kong dollars is a real achievement, and it can't be hidden from anyone.

That is to say, as the Hong Kong film industry expressed, if you don't join, it doesn't matter to us, as long as there are foreign films screened in our Hong Kong, those who cooperate with you will surpass you sooner or later, and when the time comes, the rest will only perish, and there is no second way to go. After all, one can only play in the local market, and the other can not only play in the local market, but also go to other countries and regions to play, just in terms of business, there is a big gap, even if it is a giant company on the Hollywood side, relying on the North American market, they don't pay attention to the European market? The more interests, the more development.

Those companies in North America still know how to open up the market, and if they think that it is good to rely on the local market alone, then even if they become the first in the country, it will not be a big deal. In this regard, the Hong Kong side can afford to wait, but they can't afford to wait, but they can't afford to wait, they already know that the circulation port is also responsible for the function of matchmaking film sales ports, if such a piece of income is missing, no matter which single large film company, it will be a disaster.

Therefore, those film companies that do not cooperate, although they are cursed by the high-level jumpers, but after venting, they all unanimously announced that some executives of their own companies have made serious and irreparable mistakes in the management of the company, so they are directly sent away. Even if these guys actually didn't make any mistakes at all, but they can't avoid the result of becoming scapegoats, the bosses naturally can't make mistakes, and the only ones who can make mistakes can only be the company's senior managers. They all got on a flight to Hong Kong.

"It's not easy, Li Sheng, your move is too dangerous, if anything goes wrong in any of these places, there will be big problems with the benchmark erected by our joint cinema line. Especially this box office is still a real data, it's really difficult. In the headquarters of Uncle Six's wireless TV station, in Uncle Six's office, Uncle Six said heavily to Li Mingbao and the shareholders.

"It's a little bit risky, isn't the effect not bad? If you look at last night's news, there were no less than thirty or forty film companies in the beginning, right? But how many companies announced this morning that they were firing their own top executives? With the exception of a limited number of companies that continued to be unable to distinguish the situation, the others capitulated, which proved my strategy to be correct, to catch them off guard at once, and then they collapsed in an instant.

It's not a very close alliance in the first place, and it would be really strange for a team like ours to win. We'll have to announce later, and since most of them are compliant, we don't need to give the remaining diehards another chance. From the establishment of United Cinemas to the present, the circulation port has officially entered the right track, and we have not released any ruthless means, which is really not conducive to managing those companies and making them listen to us.

This time, there happened to be a company insisting, so take advantage of the good time now to block them in one fell swoop, which can be regarded as seeing the blood of those with bad intentions, so that they can understand that our joint cinema is not a soft persimmon. Li Mingbao said firmly.

At the beginning, Li Mingbao even wanted to use his own personal grudges to take the entire Taiwan region to sacrifice the flag, although it is impossible to permanently block it, but as long as it is blocked for a year or two, let those leaders in Taiwan see the benefits and disadvantages, and the propaganda of the circulation port does not need to spend their own money, and people in the industry will understand how capable the United Cinema Line is as long as they see the fate of Taiwan.

If you want to talk about this trick, Li Mingbao still learned it from the Taiwan authorities, after the actor of the 3rd Academy Awards was blocked by Taiwan on the pretext, so that the dignified actor could only go to set up a stall, this effect is really good, so that the artists in Hong Kong behind him are quite respectful to the Taiwan side, isn't this the thing? There is a lesson learned. To tell the truth, the Taiwan side was also very clever at that time, and it was a question of whether the Taiwan side still had such a big courage to change an actor, such as Zhou Runfa and Chen Long. Only the lesson of blood can make the restless person completely settled.

However, this plan has not yet been implemented, and before the plan for the circulation port of the United Cinema Line has been thoroughly announced, the Taiwan authorities have already given Li Mingbao an explanation, and they are going to beat their own officials, and all of them are not bad, and the Taiwan authorities have also given Li Mingbao an official letter, saying that the previous incident was a pure misunderstanding, that is, the tricks of the people below themselves, and did not represent the position of the Taiwan authorities, and then they also welcomed Li Mingbao to invest in Taiwan, which can be regarded as giving Li Mingbao a considerable face.

In such a situation, Li Mingbao is not easy to attack Taiwan, and Taiwan's market is not so easy to give up for the current Hong Kong films, since Taiwan is so sincere, coupled with actual interests, Li Mingbao's idea has faded.

After all, that strength is not weak, although it can be completely blocked by gritting his teeth, but the cost of doing so is too great, and it is easy to cause more contradictions, so it is not easy to do that, but now there are only four companies left in those large companies that are still insisting, fat and thin, and if you don't go under the knife, there will really be no such a good opportunity, so Li Mingbao immediately proposed to block this big knife.

Hearing Li Mingbao's words, whether it was the sixth uncle, Zou Wenhuai, or Lei Juekun, they all supported Li Mingbao's idea. Everyone is an old fox, and naturally knows the rules of blood, so there will be no random challenge from idiots, and it will be more prosperous.

So, the proposal to block four large foreign film companies was passed, these four companies are actually not companies from a single country, one of them is Japan, South Korea also has one, the remaining one is a Thai company, and the other is Indonesia, Li Mingbao doesn't understand what they insist on at this time, but since they want to go to hell, Li Mingbao will not stop it.

Seeing that everyone agreed, Li Mingbao continued: "Actually, I really don't worry about the box office problems of the movie released this time, after all, our previous publicity efforts are quite large. That is, this movie is a foreign movie, and Hong Kong people don't buy it very much, maybe it's too fresh, and many people are reluctant to try it.

If it is replaced by our Hong Kong film, the box office will exceed 2 million a day, it is not a problem, after all, this movie was screened a total of three times yesterday, and the ticket price of 30 yuan is really normal. Maybe today's attendance will be higher, after all, the quality of this movie is still quite good. And for us in Hong Kong, it is very exotic, and the box office of this movie has exceeded 10 million, and there is no problem at all.

If it weren't for so much preparation, Sixth Uncle, do you think I would put the really dangerous thing on such an important matter? We now have more than 300 screening halls, plus the advertisements of the wireless station for several days, as well as the company's newspaper advertisements and outdoor advertisements, so much investment, if the box office on the first day is not 1 million Hong Kong dollars, then I am really sorry for so much publicity expenses, and I am sorry for the appreciation level of our people.

So this time it looks very dangerous, but in fact it is basically foolproof. If it's a foolproof thing, why don't we gamble on it? Directly killing those companies in tandem can also create an illusion of the invincibility of our United Cinema Line to those foreign companies, so I don't think too many people will take risks. And our business can also be completely opened, after all, the pilot we did this time, the experimental effect is so beautiful, we don't need to open our mouths more, outsiders can help us to thoroughly praise it. Li Mingbao said with a smile.

"Indeed, such a large advertising effort is really the first time for us in Hong Kong, and it is still a foreign film, and their company is willing to do it, and they have a lot of money, if it were me, I would be reluctant to invest like this." Xiang Huasheng said to a few other people with palpitations.
