Chapter 149: Is Shaw Brothers Cinemas Selling?

Listening to Li Le's words, Wang Li was a little dazed, she shook her head and said, "I don't understand." ”

Li Le smiled, she rubbed Wang Li's hair, and said with a smile: "You don't understand it now, but if you see more in the future, you will know the Tao." Li Lezhi said that Wang Li doesn't have much social experience now, and her heart is still very simple, and it is normal for her to not understand some things.

"Lily, no matter what, I'll take good care of you. Soon, I will have the strength that others dare not offend. In Wang Li, who was a little confused, in his arms, Li Le also said to himself in his heart. Because of his weakness, Run Run Shaw had the matter of forcibly acquiring Oriental Entertainment, and Li Le also became very eager for strength in his heart. Because Li Le didn't know what to say, if he didn't have the strength to make people fear, would anyone hit Wang Li with his idea in the future.

On the issue of Oriental entertainment, Li Le was able to avoid talking to Run Run Shaw. But Li Le knew very well in his heart that escaping was not the solution to the problem. If you can avoid it for a while, you can't avoid it for a while, so it's better to take out the problem and solve it at that time.

Run Run Shaw was very anxious about the problem of Oriental Entertainment, and early on, Run Run Shaw contacted Li Le.

"Uncle Xing, I'll be there on time." Knowing the time and place of the meeting from Run Run Shaw's mouth, Li Le responded in one bite.

"Well, we'll talk about it then."

Putting down the phone, Li Le said with a smile: "Sixth uncle, you are really ambitious for movies!" From memory, Li Le also saw some information. After the collapse of Shaw Brothers, Shaw has always wanted to build another film empire. It's a pity that Shaw's ideas are good, but he can't keep up with the times. Coupled with the fact that others do not want to see Shaw make a comeback in the film industry, and he collapsed at Shaw Brothers in his previous life, Shaw has not been able to realize his desire to rebuild the film kingdom. As time passed, Run Run Shaw finally regretfully let go of his dream of a film kingdom.

Li Le shook his head with a smile and walked into the kitchen alone. Seeing Run Run Shaw is important, but in Li Le's view, it is not more important than Wang Li. In the kitchen, Li Le was busy preparing breakfast. The agreed time with Run Run Shaw was 10 o'clock in the morning, and by that time, there were still more than 3 hours!

"Hutchison Tea Restaurant". It was the place where Run Run Shaw made an appointment with Li Le. On the phone. Run Run Shaw said that they had a morning tea together, but in fact, the intention of acquiring Oriental Entertainment was the most real. Li Le entered the dining and tea hall alone, and a waiter stepped forward and asked enthusiastically, "Sir, how many?" We have some of the best specialties here. ”

Li Le smiled. He said, "Someone asked me to come." ”

The waiter's expression remained unchanged. He smiled and asked, "Is there anything else that can help you?" ”

Li Le shook his head. said: "No need, I'll go up by myself." As he spoke, Li Le glanced at the passage upstairs.

Seeing Li Le's insistence. The waiter didn't push too hard. The job is to be enthusiastic, but they don't turn the guests off by being too enthusiastic.

After sending the waiter away, Li Le smiled on his face. There were many people in the tea restaurant, but they couldn't recognize Li Le. It just so happens that Li Le, who has been covered up with subtle makeup, makes people unable to see for a while that he is the Li Le who is now reported in the news outside.

Of course, a character like Run Run Shaw didn't mix with everyone, but Li Le also found his place very easily. Because Li Le rushed to the tea restaurant at the time point, as soon as he went upstairs, he saw Fang Yihua who went out to see. This time, Li Le didn't need to bother to find Run Run Shaw in that private room.

Sitting in the private room by the window, you can see the people coming and going from the top of the second floor. After taking a sip of tea, Li Le said with a smile: "Sixth Uncle is really good at finding a place, and sitting here makes people feel more relaxed." ”

Fang Yihua listened to Li Le's words and said with a smile: "Hutchison has a history of many years, and this place used to be visited by the sixth uncle in the past. It's just that now that I'm older, I rarely go out and come less. ”

Li Le listened and nodded, this Hutchison tea restaurant is not far from the wireless headquarters. What Fang Yihua said may be true.

Run Run Shaw followed Fang Yihua's words and said, "Do you want something?" The stuff here tastes pretty good. He was not angry at Fang Yihua for speaking in front of him, listening to Fang Yihua's words, he had a faint smile on his face, and a trace of remembrance.

Looking at Run Run Shaw, Li Le smiled and said, "No need, I've already eaten with Lily before." ”

Run Run Shaw nodded, and for a moment there was silence in the private room. Li Le is not in a hurry, Run Run Shaw and the two don't speak, and he is too lazy to open the topic now. At this time, Li Le still had an idea in his heart, that is, Run Run Shaw would retreat from the difficulty. can not have a bad relationship with Run Run Shaw, Li Le also tries his best.

Li Le underestimated Shaw's determination, although Li Le was silent, Shaw still chose to speak, and the first sentence was to the topic. "Regarding the matter of Oriental Entertainment, maybe you can also see my determination. This time, I am here to talk to you with sincerity. ”

"Li Le, Sixth Uncle really wants to get back on his feet in the movie. For Oriental Entertainment, Uncle Six also has great hopes. I hope you can think about it and fulfill the wish of the sixth uncle. After Run Run Shaw spoke, although Fang Yihua did not approve of Run Run Shaw's idea, he finally chose to stand on Run Run Shaw's side.

After listening to the words of the two, Li Le nodded and picked up the teacup without hurrying.

"Uncle Six's ambition for the movie should be seen by many people. But I want to ask here, does anyone want Uncle Six to get back involved in the film industry now? ”

Li Le's words directly hit Run Run Shaw's heart, and Run Run Shaw also paused. Run Run Shaw also thought about the problems he would face if he wanted to return to employment, and Run Run Shaw knew very well that if he wanted to enter the film industry, the first person to stand up and resist would definitely be Golden Harvest. In Hong Kong, Golden Harvest is the most reluctant to see Run Run Shaw in the film industry.

"I've thought about all of this, and many people are afraid of me, worried that I will rob them of their jobs. Even if they unite against me. I'm not afraid. We have abundant talent resources, and we have Shaw Brothers Cinemas under us, and others can't block my development in movies at all. Run Run Shaw said proudly.

What Shaw has mastered can indeed support his development in the film industry. But is that really the case? If this is the case, Run Run Shaw in his previous life will not have a chance to come back after the collapse of Shaw Brothers Films. From the memory of his previous life, Li Le can understand how difficult it is for Run Run Shaw to reorganize his film career.

Run Run Shaw then changed the conversation and said: "I know that Oriental Entertainment invested 5.5 million Hong Kong dollars at the beginning, plus Chen Baixiang's, less than 7 million. Right now. I am willing to buy 70% of the shares of Oriental Entertainment with 20 million. I believe. With my support, the development of Oriental Entertainment will be very rapid. And I'm here to assure you that you have a veto on the affairs of the film company. "20 million, Oriental Entertainment has increased Li Le's previous investment five times in less than half a month. You know, if you sell 70% of the shares. He still has a 24% stake.

Don't think that Run Run Shaw's price is too high. With such a high price, Run Run Shaw wanted to tie up Li Le. There is also a value to the existing fame of DreamWorks (Oriental) Entertainment.

Li Lezhi said that as long as he is there, Oriental Entertainment has strong financial support. The pace of development is bound to be fast. But in Li Le's heart, he didn't want to hand over his company's voice to others at all. What Run Run Shaw said was very beautiful, and it was not that Run Run Shaw wanted to tie Li Le to Oriental Entertainment. At some point, Li Le won't be kicked away.

Li Le, who has been rolling in the mall for many years, knows a truth very well, that is, he can't easily believe the words of his peers.

"Sixth uncle, Oriental Entertainment very much welcomes big money owners like you to participate in the shares. But from the very beginning, I didn't think about calling Oriental Entertainment into anyone's hands. I think Uncle Sixth can understand what I mean. ”

Run Run Shaw looked at Li Le seriously, and after a while, he spoke: "Young man, it's a good thing that you want to take your company into your own hands. But sometimes it's not a good thing, and sometimes you can't keep your things if you don't have the ability. ”

Li Le smiled and said, "I know this myself, and it is not so easy to take my things from me. ”

For a while, the atmosphere between Li Le and Run Run Shaw became a little tense. Fang Yihua was silent on the side and didn't say anything. At this time, she didn't know what to say. One of the two people wanted to buy it, and the other didn't want to sell it, and both of them Fang Yihua couldn't persuade them.

After a long while, Li Le suddenly grinned and asked, "Sixth Uncle, does Shaw Brothers Cinema Line sell it?" ”

Shaw listened to Li Le's words, and his eyes couldn't help but stare at him. Even Fang Yihua listened to it, and his body shook slightly.

Shaw Brothers Cinemas can be said to be Shaw's heart, second only to the booming wireless. In order to stop production and close down of Shaw Brothers, Shaw Brothers Cinema Shaw is still holding on to his hands. That's all because Run Run Shaw hopes to have a chance to come back, and the cinema chain is an important guarantee for the development of films.

Run Run Shaw suddenly retracted his eyes and said calmly: "Shaw Brothers Cinemas is one of the three major cinema chains in Hong Kong, and to put it mildly, Shaw Brothers Cinemas is the largest cinema chain in Hong Kong. The two major cinema chains of Golden Harvest and Golden Princess are far less than the number of theaters in the Shaw Brothers Cinema Line, and the location is also inferior. Do you think you can afford to buy Shaw Brothers now? was beaten by Li Le, and Run Run Shaw fought back without hesitation.

Li Le's face did not change, and he still had a faint smile on his face, and he said with a smile: "The current valuation of Shaw Brothers Cinemas is around 3200000, right?" ”

"A very accurate number, young man, you are far from the ability to receive Shaw Cinemas under your command right now." After a pause, Run Run Shaw smiled: "It's good for young people to be ambitious, but they also have to see their own strength. Walking in big strides is easy to get into trouble. ”

"Who can say the things of the world!"

Run Run Shaw looked at Li Le seriously, and when he saw that Li Le still hadn't dispelled the idea of Shaw Brothers Cinemas, he was also a little unsettled in his heart. "Where does your faith come from?" Run Run Shaw also asked with a deep groan in his heart. (To be continued......)
