Chapter 464: Essential Change
readx;
When everyone arrives, there will inevitably be some nagging. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info say hello or something, and after Li Mingbao spoke, the Xiang brothers and Lei Juekun were very respectful, but when the sixth uncle and Zou Wenhuai faced Li Mingbao, they were indispensable to have some yin and yang weirdness.
"Li Sheng, you have been eating and drinking spicy food in the United States in recent months, so unhappy, but we old guys have been tired of running around for the matter of circulating in Hong Kong recently, not to mention exhausting and tired work, and we have not achieved much results. This gap is very different, Li Sheng, you are also the initiator of the circulation port, so it is a little unpleasant to watch the excitement in the United States, right? The sixth uncle looked at Li Mingbao and said slowly.
It is not a matter of a day or two that the sixth uncle is dissatisfied with himself, how could Li Mingbao not know. And now in front of so many people, he has said such words, making it clear that the purpose is not so simple to complain, but with some deep thoughts.
If it had been before, Li Mingbao might have felt a little embarrassed, and he would have to take into account the feelings of the sixth uncle. But now, Uncle Six's words are not much trouble for Li Mingbao, although Li Mingbao will definitely not abandon the foundation of Hong Kong, but he will no longer take into account Uncle Six's senses all the time as before, and feed Uncle Six with some of his own interests.
So after the sixth uncle said this, Li Mingbao replied with a smile: "Sixth uncle, I have no choice, who told me that there are so many things in the United States that I need to deal with personally?" Whether it is the Twentieth Century Fox company or some other affiliated companies, it is inevitable that some people will move. The things over there in the United States, Uncle Six, you also know, if I don't sit over there and something goes wrong, it will be a loss of hundreds of millions of dollars, not to mention a loss of hundreds of millions of dollars, such a big loss, I can't afford it, take that millionaire show as an example, just the profits in North America, if you operate well, you can have at least a billion dollars a year, although it is impossible for me to take it all, but the share I occupy in it is not a small amount.
Coupled with some licensing interests in other regions, this amount of money is not a small amount of money, plus my TV production company in the United States is not only a millionaire program, but also other similar programs, how can I let go of such benefits? So there's no way around staying over there.
Besides, although I mentioned the circulation port plan, I am not the only one who really takes advantage of this plan, no matter how I say it, there is no film company in hand, how many movies can be released in a year? Although United Cinemas can reap a profit, I don't take the lion's share of the movie's gains. Whoever has more interests will contribute more, this is a very fair thing, and if the sixth uncle has to talk about this matter, it won't make much sense.
Indeed, the Circulation Port Project is of great interest to all of us here, and in such a situation, we should all work together. I've been a little slacking off on this issue lately, but that's not to say that I haven't made an effort, and I'm not falling behind when it comes to planning. As for the specific work, I do contribute a little, but this is also a helpless thing, who called me in Hong Kong's foundation, and the sixth uncle you are not comparable at all, you want me to do things, then the delay is everyone's time, investment and return is not proportional.
In that case, why should I compete for work with you big people like Sixth Uncle? Besides, if I really contribute too much, then Mr. Zou, Sixth Uncle, you may not like me to do this, maintaining the current situation is a good thing, anyway, there is no delay in work, why bother so much? ”
The sixth uncle has always liked to talk about Li Mingbao's lack of work, and Li Mingbao may have to take into account some influences in the past, so he acquiesced to the sixth uncle's actions, and also gave some benefits from time to time. But now, if the sixth uncle talks about this matter again, Li Mingbao will not have such good elegance.
Li Mingbao is indeed not good enough on this issue, but as Li Mingbao said, even if Li Mingbao wants to do things in a real way, the sixth uncle may not be willing to let Li Mingbao do things, after all, although doing things will be tiring, but it has immeasurable benefits for expanding his network. Li Mingbao originally occupied the majority part of the United Cinema Line, and he was also a major shareholder, if such a person wholeheartedly worked for the circulation port plan, it was definitely not a good thing for people with greater ambitions like Sixth Uncle and Zou Wenhuai, if Li Mingbao really unified the right to speak within the United Cinema Line, and even the matter of the circulation port was handled by Li Mingbao, then the value of Sixth Uncle and Zou Wenhuai in this alliance would be much smaller.
Originally, they didn't have a lot of advantages in front of Li Mingbao, and even most of the advantages for Li Mingbao could not be surpassed, such as the right to speak in movies, as long as Li Mingbao had two more movies, and then they were all successful, then in the future, Li Mingbao will definitely have more power to speak about movies in the circle than Sixth Uncle and Zou Wenhuai. There are also those industry personnel below, if Li Mingbao makes great efforts to win over, it will not be difficult to cut off the tentacles of the sixth uncle and Zou Wenhuai with Li Mingbao's capital advantage.
And the only advantage they have in front of Li Mingbao, which is difficult to surpass, is only a matter of connections, after all, this thing does not rely on one or two transactions to be able to take care of the connections, which requires a long period of operation, unless there are irresistible reasons, otherwise it is difficult for Li Mingbao to compete with the sixth uncle and Zou Wenhuai on the Hong Kong side. If Li Mingbao is surpassed in all aspects, the sixth uncle and Zou Wenhuai will not be able to do it at all. Therefore, if Li Mingbao really starts to do things seriously, the sixth uncle will definitely not support or even instigate them like now, but secretly sabotage Li Mingbao's business.
Originally, with the ideas of the sixth uncle and Zou Wenhuai, Li Mingbao would definitely not turn his face with them on this issue, and they could also rely on such a mouthful to get some profits from Li Mingbao without too much effort, just like before, they could get a little benefit from Li Mingbao.
But the sixth uncle didn't expect this gathering, but Li Mingbao didn't get used to them, but directly explained some words that were not on the table. This made the sixth uncle a little embarrassed. And embarrassment is something that doesn't have any effect on an old fox like Uncle Six, after all, he can reconcile with his old opponent Zou Wenhuai, not to mention some small embarrassment, which has no effect at all.
But an old fox like Uncle Sixth also has a very keen sense of smell for some subtle changes, just like this time Li Mingbao brought the secret problem to the surface, although it seemed that it was just Li Mingbao's counterattack, which embarrassed him. But the deep meaning of this is not simple. In the past, Li Mingbao would be used to them, because the sixth uncle had sufficient confidence in this regard, and this confidence was something that Li Mingbao did not have, what kind of confidence? It's about connections and the confidence of strength. It is precisely because of the sixth uncle that they have such confidence, so even if Li Mingbao is the major shareholder of United Cinemas, the sixth uncle can fight in court and get a good profit. So they can just find an excuse to cut the meat here at Li Mingbao, and Li Mingbao can't complain yet. Because Li Mingbao wants to gain a firm foothold in Hong Kong, he must cooperate with these old foxes, otherwise, everything will be a mirror and will not be able to withstand the wind and waves.
But now, Li Mingbao began to be less cooperative with the sixth uncle, but brought a trace of embarrassment to the sixth uncle, this situation is a bit unexpected by the sixth uncle, relying on his connections and strength, he can't cut the meat on Li Mingbao's side, and the sixth uncle's means for Li Mingbao have become completely useless invisibly.
And the meaning of Li Mingbao's words also made the sixth uncle understand that the reason why Li Mingbao did this was because Li Mingbao already had the confidence to not bird his sixth uncle. Naturally, there is no such confidence in Hong Kong, but on the United States side, Li Mingbao's strength is growing rapidly, and this growth process is visible to everyone. Especially Li Mingbao is now wearing a pair of pants with Twentieth Century Fox, which is no stranger to everyone, Li Mingbao is now on the TV show, if it weren't for the good relationship with Twentieth Century Fox, where could there be such a good thing?
And Li Mingbao's profits on the US side are not something that Hong Kong can give. Li Mingbao himself said that the profit of a single TV program can bring him hundreds of millions of dollars in the North American market, which is still every year, not counting the profits of other regions and countries, such a big profit, even compared to the profits of the entire circulation port plan, is a lot more. Since the profits of things like the circulation port do not occupy a major position in Li Mingbao's career, and even the interests of the whole of Hong Kong do not occupy a major position for Li Mingbao, then some of the previous methods of the sixth uncle and Zou Wenhuai can be regarded as what can be regarded as things for Li Mingbao?
With such confidence, Li Mingbao is not a bird to his sixth uncle, in fact, it is not a matter at all, let alone Li Mingbao, even if the sixth uncle is transferred to Li Mingbao's position, the sixth uncle will only do more than Li Mingbao, instead of just saying a few words like this. So for Li Mingbao's choice, the sixth uncle has no good tricks to deal with at all.
After all, the United States is not Hong Kong, and the sixth uncle may be able to cover the sky with one hand in Hong Kong, but for the United States on the other side of the ocean, he is really beyond the reach of the whip. Not to mention the sixth uncle, even Zou Wenhuai, who has a career in the United States, does not have many means when facing Li Mingbao, although he has been struggling in the United States for a lot longer than Li Mingbao, but his strength, compared to the current Li Mingbao, is not at the same level at all.
