Chapter 243: Brokerage Company
But fortunately, Uncle Sixth is also an old fox, although he heard some of Li Mingbao's solutions, and it seems to be so effective. But as soon as his mind turned, he understood that although Li Mingbao released a little dry goods, if he wanted to make Shaw Brothers rise again, relying on such a little dry goods did not seem to be enough.
If Li Mingbao only had such a few means, he would certainly be able to maintain the work of some people, and the Shaw Brothers would not lose so much. But the problem is that for Shaw Brothers, they can only mix food and clothing, and occasionally bleed, and it is not easy to make a big profit. And this profit actually does not come out of the Shaw Brothers movie, but on the people in the Shaw Brothers movie.
It sounds like there is no difference between these two kinds of profits, the people in the Shaw Brothers movie are profitable, aren't they also the Shaw Brothers movies making profits? In fact, the difference is huge. First of all, the profits of these people did not rely on the signboard of Shaw Brothers movies.
If you really make money like this, the credit is not for the Shaw Brothers movies, but for those people. Shaw Brothers Films really wants to regroup, in fact, there is only one way to go, that is, to shoot movies, if you don't make profitable movies, Shaw Brothers Movies will never be able to say that he is up, even if he relies on the people under Shaw Brothers Films to mix well, but that is not the success of Shaw Brothers Films, without the signboard of Shaw Brothers Films, they can also succeed. That's the biggest difference between the two methods.
Although Uncle Sixth doesn't have obsessive-compulsive disorder, it's good for him to be able to make money. But the problem is that what Uncle Six wants Li Mingbao to do now is to bring Shaw Brothers Film Company back to life and regroup, if the people below can make money without relying on the signboard of Shaw Brothers Films, then what is the point of this signboard? If you really want to make money simply, doesn't wireless also have a platform for people to show?
So after hearing Li Mingbao's method, the sixth uncle was shaken for a moment, and then immediately raised the questions in his heart, and by the way, he also wanted to see Li Mingbao's reaction, to see if Li Mingbao had other ideas besides these things.
If Li Mingbao really thinks like this, then the sixth uncle will definitely not give Li Mingbao too many benefits, because Li Mingbao is not qualified to use these things as bargaining chips for negotiations.
Hearing the words of the sixth uncle, Li Mingbao still said with a smile: "I believe that the sixth uncle, you will definitely not be so short-sighted, although this can indeed solve some troubles, but in essence, it does not completely save the Shaw family." So I believe that Uncle Six will not do that. ”
Li Mingbao's words immediately let the sixth uncle know that Li Mingbao had other dry goods, and these dry goods were the most important things, so the sixth uncle stopped being verbose and said directly: "You say, the conditions for solving the trouble of the Shaw family." ”
"This ...... Since the sixth uncle has said it, if I don't put forward the conditions, it will not give you face to the sixth uncle. Actually, my conditions are not very high, there is only one, I want a contract. ”
"Contract? What kind of contract? Hearing that Li Mingbao didn't want money, but asked for a contract, the sixth uncle's heart raised his vigilance, as the saying goes, the trouble that can be solved with money can't be considered trouble at all. Although this is too high-end for silk, this sentence is too high-end and high-grade, because silk doesn't even have money, and trouble can only be trouble, and it can't be solved.
But for a handsome and rich man like Uncle Six, of course, he is an old handsome man. The trouble that can be solved with money is really not a trouble, what he hopes most is that Li Mingbao wants money, not something else, because in addition to money, the conditions he can offer are all an industry, and money can be earned with industry, but the industry is gone, and the way to make money is blocked, and long-term meal tickets are always more important to Uncle Six than one-time investment.
"The contract I want is the contract of those actors under Uncle Six." Li Mingbao put forward his request with a smile.
Hearing Li Mingbao's words, the sixth uncle's face changed on the spot: "Actor contract? Li Sheng, don't you think your appetite is too big? Although I want Shaw Brothers to regroup, it doesn't mean that I can agree to any conditions. The importance of the actor's contract, don't you understand Li Sheng? I'd rather sell Shaw Brothers than let the actor contract be lost, because such conditions are completely unequal. ”
"Sixth uncle, of course I know that such conditions are not equal, but since I have proposed it, I have my reasons. In fact, there are many kinds of actors' contracts. I only need a few of these contracts, not all of them. Are you so nervous? Li Mingbao saw the appearance of the sixth uncle, and continued happily.
"Not several, not even a door. The actor contract, it's also up to you Li Sheng to think of it, can the value of this thing be compared to the Shaw Brothers movie? Even if it is a few, it is far more than the value of Shaw Brothers, and it is absolutely not negotiable. The sixth uncle said with a vigilant face, he now regrets letting Li Mingbao solve the trouble, otherwise he would not have let Li Mingbao have the opportunity to open his mouth.
"Why bother? Why bother? Sixth uncle, it's not me saying you, the actor's contract is put to you, and the value of the actor is not waved at all, rather than wasting it on you, it is better to leave it to me to take care of it, so that it can generate more benefits, and it is still good for you Sixth Uncle. ”
"Good fart, the actor contract is in your hands, what other good can I have? When the time comes, I will still have to ask you for a TV series and a movie, Uncle Six, do you want my wireless and Shaw Brothers? The benefits, it's also up to you Li Sheng to think about it, and I can see it, Li Sheng, you have been blushing at those actors of our wireless for a long time, right? Otherwise, I wouldn't have mentioned this matter at this time.
I sue you, even if Shaw Brothers goes out of business, the actor contract in my hand will not be caught, this is my old bottom, even Zou Wenhuai has no ability to poach in my hands, and you Li Sheng is even worse. Okay, today, if I haven't said anything about Shaw Brothers, don't talk about the actor contract in front of me in the future, as long as I don't die, you don't want me to take out the contract. The sixth uncle said angrily.
Compared with the sixth uncle's anger, Li Mingbao seemed much calmer, no, Zhong Chuhong next to him pulled the corner of Li Mingbao's clothes under the table, signaling Li Mingbao not to be so reckless, Li Mingbao was also in the mood to touch Zhong Chuhong's little hand, all of which was teasing.
"Sixth uncle, will you listen to me first? I want the contract of your actors, not all of them, but to share the contract with Uncle Six. After sharing their contracts, I will set up a new agency to plan the future path of those actors, open up new sources of income for them, and package them in an all-round way, so that their true value will completely bloom.
In this way, Sixth Uncle, you have not completely lost control over them, and you can earn more benefits, and it is not too much for me to extract a profit from them, right? With my strength to implement new measures, and it does not prevent Uncle Sixth from employing people, in the end, Uncle Six, you can still share a profit, and you can also revitalize a Shaw Brothers Film Company, this deal, Uncle Six, do you still feel that you are losing money?
If that's the case, I'll just need to train a group of suitable actors myself. Isn't the reason why there are so many actors in wireless because you have cultivated them yourself? And with my current ability, I am afraid that it is not difficult to replicate the wireless mode. And Uncle Six, you have made so many actors, and the only place that can make them wield room is the TV series.
But I'm different, I can make them stand out in the movies, and I have the opportunity to let them go to Hollywood, I not only have partners like Twentieth Century Fox there, but I also have my own film company over there, and when it comes to the future, I'm afraid my side is better than the future of wireless, right?
One of the reasons I didn't do that was because it was too slow for me to waste. Another reason is that Uncle Six, you already have a certain foundation here, and if I start anew, it is actually a kind of damage to the Hong Kong film and television industry, after all, Hong Kong is only that big. Anything that maximizes the benefits can only be a union, if I start over, it will inevitably make the actor part become fragmented, and in the end, it will damage the interests of the industry.
The cooperation between us can be regarded as a win-win situation. Sixth uncle, why do you hold on to the actor's contract? You and Zou Wenhuai can't cooperate, that's because he and you are in the same direction, there is no basis for cooperation, his strength expands, and your strength will inevitably shrink. But I am different from him, the things I want to open are all new things in Hong Kong, and they can be regarded as a new market, a new cake.
The main business of the brokerage company I want to get is not to squeeze out the existing Hong Kong market, but to open up new sources of money, such as professional actor prospect planning, new advertising projects, and even cross-industry all-round exhibitions. Since I haven't done it, there won't be many entanglements of interests, so it's better to let me do it, do it well, everyone makes money, and if you don't do it well, there is no loss for you, Uncle Six. In that case, why not? Li Mingbao patiently explained to Uncle Sixth why he wanted an actor contract.
Hearing Li Mingbao's words, although the sixth uncle was still very angry, it was not that he didn't listen to Li Mingbao's words, if things were really like what Li Mingbao said, it didn't seem to be too much damage to the sixth uncle, and there would even be new income points.
But the red line of the actor contract is not something that Li Mingbao can cross in a few words. If it's really that easy, the wireless actors will not be forced to the new century, and there are no too big changes.
At that time, Uncle Six did not weaken the actor's ability to control the zhì, and it can be seen from this point that Uncle Six is quite cautious about this aspect of things, and would rather be scolded by others than let go of the control of zhì with all his might, because he regards this thing as his hole card.
