Li Guoxing may come to the celebration party, or Lin Xiaozhi personally sent out the invitation, for something, not to sell "Color is Empty" at a good price.

Seeing that Zheng Zeshi was not far away, Lin Xiaozhi called him first, whispered a few words to him, and told him that he would like him to watch the time and give it away, and he wanted to talk to Li Guoxing about the overseas distribution of "Color is Empty".

Zheng Zeshi is also an old filmmaker, and it is not clear the importance of overseas distribution. As soon as Lin Xiaozhi said that, he understood, patted his chest and took over the job, so that he could negotiate the price with Li Guoxing with peace of mind.

"Li Sheng, sit over there for a while......"

With Zheng Zeshi taking over the hard work of entertaining the guests, the relieved Lin Xiaozhi sent him away, pointed to a few sofas in the corner where no one was sitting, and motioned to Li Guoxing to go there and sit down.

Li Guoxing has nothing to do, he doesn't like this kind of lively occasion, and it's not bad to sit quietly in the corner to talk about things.

The two of them walked a few times and sat down on the sofa in the corner. Li Guoxing looked at the young man in front of him, his eyes flickering.

He is more than ten years older than Lin Xiaozhi, and since he was fifteen or sixteen years old and sold Hong Kong film tapes to Southeast Asia with his uncle to earn the first pot of gold, he has formed an indissoluble bond with movies. Over the years, Li Guoxing has been dealing with films, and has successfully operated one Hong Kong film after another to be distributed and released in Southeast Asia, making a lot of money

Basically, he has dealt with most film companies in Hong Kong except for a few giants, and Li Guoxing has also seen the rise and fall of too many film companies. Not to mention far away, Xu's Pictures, which was more popular in the late seventies and early eighties, Baohe and Baoxiang, which were bullish in the past few years, and so on. After watching too much about the rise and fall of film companies, Li Guoxing has gained a lot of experience, and he already has a set of discerning skills in his heart.

Last year, Yineng, Xu Ke Studio, Yingzhijie, Yongsheng and Xinya were the five film companies whose performance was second only to the traditional Big Three, contributing a total of 200 million yuan to the box office, which has exceeded more than a quarter of the total box office in Hong Kong last year, and was recognized by the outside world as the 'five small powerhouses,'. Among the five small powerhouses, Yineng has its own distribution network, and Xu Ke's studio handed over the overseas distribution to Xinyicheng to do, but the rest of the film overseas distribution rights of Yingzhijie, Yongsheng, and Xinya were sold to Meiya. has a lot of dealings, and among these five film companies that are recognized by the industry as likely to give birth to new giants, Li Guoxing has a good eye for people and takes a fancy to New Asia and Yongsheng.

Artistic ability seems amazing, but the disadvantages are obvious. There are many signed artists under the name but the strength is too scattered, and there are a lot of potential artists signed under the name of the artist, once it encounters poaching or a department has a problem, it must be transferred from other departments to the past, and nothing is strong enough to refer to it.

Xu Ke Studio is a subsidiary of Xinyicheng, and the three giants of Xinyicheng are now in trouble, not only their potential has declined in the hearts of many people in Hong Kong, but also the life of the following subsidiaries is not easy. Li Guoxing has dealt with Xu Ke, this person is too weird, and his strength is not good, and after the conflict with his general Wu Yusen, there is no room for blind suppression, which makes Wu Yusen already have the heart to run away. Others Li Guoxing don't know, but Wu Yusen has already contacted him, and also hinted that there is a big star in his film company. What big star? There is no need to guess at all, it must be his good friend Zhou Yanfa. As soon as Wu Yusen and Zhou Runfa left, what was left in Xu Ke's studio, and he and Cheng Xiaodong lost half of their potential.

Ying Zhijie is optimistic about Li Guoxing but not optimistic, Deng Guangrong relies too much on the Taiwanese capital behind him, but he doesn't have much money. And most of the movies shot by Ying Zhijie are follow-up films, once the Taiwanese capital behind him is withdrawn, the seemingly glamorous Ying Zhijie will collapse, and there are too many bubbles.

Yongsheng naturally doesn't need to say much, the Wan'an background of the Xiang brothers is there, no matter what kind of effort the three brothers put into investing in making movies, with the strength and strength of the Xiang brothers, it is very easy to make Yongsheng bigger.

Among the five Xiaoqiang film companies, Li Guoxing is the most curious and interested, and it is undoubtedly New Asia.

"Mr. Lin, I'm very interested in you now"

The two of them had just sat down, and Li Guoxing suddenly said a word, which made Lin Xiaozhi stunned for a while.

"I talked to Boss Qiu just now and wanted to take a stake in your Xinya, do you know what Boss Qiu told me?"

What the?

Li Guoxing wants to take a stake in New Asia

Lin Xiaozhi was shocked in his heart, although his face was silent, his hands trembled slightly. The outside valuation of Meiya is about 450 million Hong Kong dollars, because it is not a listed company, and no one can say how much it is worth. But one thing is certain, Meiya is definitely a predator for the current New Asia, the kind that eats people and does not spit out bones. He didn't want Xinya, which he had worked hard to prepare for a year, to be targeted by a predator, so he asked quietly: "Oh? I'm curious, too

Li Guoxing saw all his performance, if it weren't for Qiu Degen's words just now, I was afraid that he would have deceived the young man in front of him. I secretly felt in my heart, "Young Junjie, then I frowned and said: "Boss Qiu told me that you want to take a stake in New Asia, and you also have to mention this matter to the real boss, and tell me what's the use." I asked him who he was going to talk to about this, who do you think Boss Qiu asked me to come to? ”

After that, his eyes stared at Lin Xiaozhi directly, and he saw that the bitterness in his heart was flooding wave after wave, and he sighed and said, "Li Sheng, let's talk about cooperation." Xinya has cooperated with Meiya several times, and now it can be regarded as a tacit understanding. So the movie "Color is Empty", we are also going to give you Meiya to do"

Meiya's shareholding is actually not a bad thing, Lin Xiaozhi's head turned for a while, and he quickly sorted out the importance of this. Meiya has a channel network covering Southeast Asia, and Meiya does not have a film company that can provide stable film sources for itself, what Meiya lacks most is that there is a film company like Xinya, which can provide him with high-quality film sources that are not bad in quality.

As a distributor, Meiya's earnings are volatile, and she makes a lot of money by releasing a good movie. If Huayan buys a movie that can't be sold, it will definitely lose money. Therefore, once Meiya takes a stake in New Asia, it will undoubtedly be able to provide a large amount of funds for New Asia to make films and grow New Asia rapidly, and at the same time, Meiya's distribution channels throughout Southeast Asia will also lead New Asia and his foreign circle money plan to be finally realized. Take a look at Xinyicheng and Jiahe to know the importance of the foreign market. Every year, foreign ports can bring hundreds of millions of profits to the two film companies, almost catching up with or even surpassing Hong Kong's own port

This temptation sparked a fire in Xiaoxiao's head, and it was quickly extinguished by Lin Xiaozhi.

It can't be so smooth, if Meiya just wants to invest a small amount of shares, he can still accept it. But looking at Li Guoxing's meaning, I am afraid that he wants to swallow Xinya, and no matter how bad it is, he will have a controlling stake like he is now.

Just kidding, how much effort did Lin Xiaozhi put in to bring down Xinya, how could he give it to others.

Thinking of this, he could only make a look of his eyes and nose, and made it clear that he didn't want to talk about buying shares.

Li Guoxing frowned slightly, how could he, an old Jianghu, not understand Lin Xiaozhi's meaning, and wanted to talk about buying shares again, but he recalled that Lin Xiaozhi didn't respond at all before, and he was a little annoyed in his heart, so he suppressed his thoughts for the time being, and replied lightly: "I haven't congratulated Mr. Lin yet, you Xinya have made a good movie again." "Color is Empty" is really good, and many young people like it. In this way, the price of the last time will be added to the price of 2 million, and Meiya will buy out the distribution rights and videotape publishing rights of "Color is Empty" in all foreign markets......"

This price is too good to be a good price in normal times, although it can't catch up with Fa Ge's movies, the distribution rights in Southeast Asia alone are as high as tens of millions, not counting video tape publishing. But for a new company like New Asia, Meiya's sincerity is enough.

However, Lin Xiaozhi is still a little dissatisfied.

"Video publishing can be given to you, as can the distribution rights in Southeast Asia. Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan are not good, and "Color is Empty" has a box office of nearly 30 million in Hong Kong, and I think our strength has been proven......"

Li Guoxing was unhappy, lit a cigarette for himself, and stared at Lin Xiaozhi, he admitted that he admired this young man more and more, and he was decisive in negotiations, he was still a friend one moment, and he could wield a butcher's knife the next moment. But appreciate it alike, and now they are adversaries at the negotiating table.

"Mr. Lin, you are too greedy"

Li Guoxing was dissatisfied: "UU Wan, how much can we make in Meiya?" Japan and South Korea, you have to go and want to broaden the channels yourself, you can. Don't blame me for not reminding you, Japan's channels don't work at all, the three major theaters and the five major film companies now only recognize the films of Golden Harvest, New Art City and Debao, especially Golden Harvest, you may not be able to deal with it when you go to the door yourself. Not to mention South Korea, Koreans have been disgusted with Hong Kong films for a long time, except for Cheng Long and Hong Jinbao, there can be some market for kung fu films, who goes and who dies, Zhou Yanfa's several movies are tired of selling in Southeast Asia, who do you contact to release them when you go to South Korea? Except for Thailand and Singapore, which are interested in this kind of student film in Southeast Asia, other markets cannot sell at all. You took Taiwan away, Meiya can't make a dime, what should I do with this business? ”

Lin Xiaozhi was happy in his heart, Japan and South Korea are short-footed in the United States and Asia, and if they don't want it, it means that their goals have been achieved. Lin Xiaozhi doesn't care too much about whether he makes money or not, what he cares about now is when the company will be able to open up the country, and Japan, one of the two largest markets in Asia.

"Li Sheng, it's not authentic for you to say that. The "Can't Help It" videotape, I inquired. More than 90,000 copies have been sold in Hong Kong alone, and you Meiya started as a videotape distributor, and Meiya has earned at least more than 4 million yuan in this piece alone. "Color is Empty" I said that its videotape publishing is higher than "Can't Help It", many young people who can't enter the theater to watch the movie due to the restrictions of tertiary films, and those who haven't had time to watch it, want to buy the videotape collection, the whole of Hong Kong is overseas, it's not impossible to sell 100,000 copies, it's the same as the previous movie, it's still 10 million, Southeast Asia distribution is all to the United States, and the videotape distribution is also to you. Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, we New Asia do it ourselves, what do you think? ”

Li Guoxing thought for a while before reluctantly nodding.
