After Chen Baixiang had a rough idea of the suppression of the gambling saint, Wang Jing looked at Li Le and asked heavily: "Li Le, what should we do next." ”

Looking at the two of them with bad faces, Li Le smiled and said: "There is no need to be so sad, the gambling saint is a good movie, even if the sixth uncle has a heart, he has not been able to completely block it." I am very confident that the performance of the gambling saint will not disappoint. ”

Thinking of the excellence of the gambling saint, Wang Jing and Chen Baixiang also felt that Run Run Shaw's suppression was a very troublesome thing, but it could not hurt the root of the gambling saint. Wang Jing said: "This is not a solution, after all, the gambling saint is suppressed, and the box office will be greatly affected." ”

Chen Baixiang also nodded, he looked at Li Le and asked, "Li Le, have you talked to Sixth Uncle about Oriental Entertainment?" ”

Li Le did not hide this. "I made an appointment with Uncle Six this morning, and he offered to buy 70% of the shares, but I refused. I think that now Shaw Brothers Cinemas is suppressing gambling saints, mainly for us! In order to acquire Oriental Entertainment, the sixth uncle can be regarded as pulling down. ”

Wang Jing and Chen Baixiang were silent, and it was not easy for them to say anything to Li Le on the issue of whether Oriental Entertainment would be sold. After all, Oriental Entertainment can have such good results now, mainly because of Li Le. Both of them are very good at putting their positions right, just to follow Li Le to make money.

"You can also talk about what we want to deal with the suppression of Shaw Brothers Cinemas next." Li Le said calmly. Run Run Shaw's suppression, Li Le had long expected it. It's just that Li Le didn't expect Run Run Shaw's speed to be so fast. However, Li Le's heart was also a little comforted, because the Shaw Brothers Cinema Line did not go down directly.

In fact, in Run Run Shaw's heart, he did have the idea of completely banning the gambling saint in Shaw Brothers Cinemas. But it soon occurred to Shaw that this was the most inappropriate thing to do. Because in this way, the Shaw Brothers Cinemas defaulted, and Oriental Entertainment was able to contact other theaters to release the gambling saint. Adjust the release time period of the gambling saint to a deserted time period, and continue to leave the release of the gambling saint in the Shaw Brothers theater line, so as not to rob the gambling saint from other theater chains.

"We still have some small theater chains with release contracts, but this doesn't help much at the box office of the gambling saint. If the box office performance of the gambling saint is to be good, it must be supported by the theater chain. Chen Baixiang said quietly.

"Uncle Six is unkind. Don't blame us for being unrighteous. Either we will hand over the gambling saint to Golden Harvest or Golden Princess for release. Anyway, we don't have a contract with Shaw Brothers to say that it will only be released in their theaters in Hong Kong. Wang Jing was also ruthless, and came up with the most desperate way.

"That's not good." Before Li Le could speak, Chen Baixiang objected. Chen Baixiang looked at Li Le and said, "Ah Jing's idea is very good, but this violates the unspoken rules of the industry. Until that time. We're the first to go. Although Chen Baixiang just said it briefly. But Li Le also understood in his heart. Emerging birds are not so easy to do. In Li Le's heart, he will not violate the unspoken rules of the circle unless he is forced to do so.

"Al Latat is right. It's not a wise idea to find Golden Harvest and Princess Jin. ”

"So I just watched the gambling saint being suppressed?" Wang Jing was a little irritable in his heart. Before that, Wang Jing made a lot of movies. Although some movies hit the streets, he really hasn't been suppressed. The gambling saint was suppressed by Run Run Shaw, and Wang Jing was unspeakably uncomfortable.

The gambling saint was suppressed, and the fastest spread was in the circle. The star artists Li Le knew were very helpless when they first heard that Shaw Brothers Cinemas was suppressing gambling saints. Their reputation is good, but Run Run Shaw suppressed the gambling saint in the theater, and they couldn't help much. In their hearts, they didn't dare to openly stand up for Li Le and the gambling saint.

Shaw's suppression is a big deal. No one thought that the situation would take a turn for the worse before when it was fine, and many people couldn't turn around.

Jiahe, Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang sat together drinking tea. Zou Wenhuai said with a smile: "I have long thought that such a thing would happen. After fighting with Uncle Sixth for so many years, I knew that this time he would not be able to bear it. It's just that I didn't expect that Uncle Six's suppression was much faster than I expected. ”

The popularity of the gambling saint, Zou Wenhuai didn't expect that it would have an impact on Golden Harvest? No. If he couldn't see such a crisis, Jiahe would not have defeated many opponents and come to this point. Zou Wenhuai endured no movement, just waiting for Run Run Shaw to suppress the gambling saint. And Run Run Shaw's reaction did not disappoint Zou Wenhuai, and Run Run Shaw really suppressed the gambling saint.

"Wen Huai, do you think we're helping now?" He Guanchang asked with a smile.

Zou Wenhuai shook his head and said, "Don't worry, don't talk about the unspoken rules." Now is not the most critical time, wait for Li Le and they are forced to be in a hurry. Sending charcoal in the snow is better than any friendship. ”

Seeing the popularity of the gambling saint, Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang both wanted to recruit Li Le to Golden Harvest. It's just that all along, the two of them have not had a good chance to get along.

Zou Wenhuai smiled in his heart: "Sixth uncle, it seems that you are going to miss again this time." Zou Wenhuai was very proud in his heart, he was very happy to see Shaw's failure, and liked to snatch talents from Shaw's hands. It is as if Bruce Lee is based on the foundation of Golden Harvest, and it is also Run Run Shaw who entered Golden Harvest after missing out, and finally created the capital of Golden Harvest.

Many film companies have known about Shaw's crackdown on gambling saints, and they have all kept silent.

Xu's Films has a good relationship with Li Le, but they don't have an independent theater chain, and there are only a few of their own. They are willing to help, but they are also powerless.

Li Zifu of Yindu also contacted Li Le's office. Yindu movies are different, but they still have a lot of theaters that belong to them. On the phone, Li Zifu also put forward a suggestion to release the gambling saint in the Yindu Cinema. You must know that before the Dao, the gambling saint was popular, but the silver capital had no connection to say that the gambling saint was released.

Yindu unexpectedly helped, and Li Le was also very happy in his heart. Yindu Cinema Line is not as big as the three major cinema chains, but it is also the scale of a medium-sized cinema chain. Yindu's help has also made the situation of the gambling saint a lot better.

"Xie Lu Xie Manager Li, it is a very troublesome thing to know the problem of the gambling saint of Lu Dao. With the help of Yindu, it will be much easier for us. ”

"We are also mainlanders, and we should help each other. By the way, about the release of the gambling saint in the mainland, there is news from above. For the time being, the gambling saint still can't be released in the mainland, but the leaders also think that the gambling saint is a good film. Therefore, on the issue of gambling saints, outside the mainland, there is no restriction in the mainland that we cannot go to the theater. "Yindu didn't have the intention of releasing the gambling saint before, don't they want to take the opportunity to make money? No. The important thing is because of the mainland's opinion, before there is definite news, Li Zifu will not dare to release the movie in the theaters of Yindu casually.

The mainland can't release the gambling saint, and Li Le also has some regrets in his heart. However, the local silver capital outside the mainland can help the gambling saint, and Li Le is also sincerely grateful.

was thanked again by Li Le, Li Zifu said with a smile: "Do we also want to make money?" The gambling saint is so popular. In our theatrical release, we can also get a lot of money. ”

hung up Li Zifu's phone, Li Le smiled and said to Wang Jing and Chen Baixiang, who were still in the office: "Good news, Yindu Cinema is going to release a gambling saint." ”

"Great."

"In this way, the impact of the box office of the gambling saint is further reduced."

Wang Jing and Chen Baixiang both showed joy on their faces. Yindu Cinema Line is very clear that it is a medium-sized cinema chain. With the support of Yindu, the pressure on Shaw Brothers Cinemas to suppress has become much smaller.

"In this way, Ah Lak, you can contact Yindu and confirm that the gambling saint will be released in their theaters. Also, with the help of Yindu, we can't take too much advantage, in terms of sharing, let's follow the Shaw Brothers Cinemas! "The share of gambling saint cinemas was only as high as 4% of Shaw Brothers before, and the other cinemas were less than 4%. For Yindu, Li Le also made concessions.

Chen Baixiang nodded and said, "I know how to deal with this matter." ”

Li Le smiled and said to Wang Jing: "Wang Fatzi, the suppression of the gambling saint is not the most important thing for you, the most important thing you need to do now is to prepare the crew." We are going on as usual with the previous planning. ”

Wang Jing hesitated for a moment and asked, "Is it appropriate to make a new movie now?" ”

"Hong Kong is not the world of Uncle Six, and he can't ban us at all. Rest assured, when the movie is made, something like the gambling saint being suppressed will never happen. Li Le said proudly. Before, Li Le thought about delaying the problem of the cinema chain for two or three years, but now that he has been suppressed by Run Run Shaw, Li Le has changed his mind. In Li Le's heart, he has decided to do his best to set up the theater as soon as possible.

"Okay, listen to you." Wang Jing was also able to let it go, and quickly responded.

"The company has a problem, and we should set an example. Get busy! Let others see that we are not easy to be suppressed. Li Le encouraged.

In Ming Pao, of course, Jin Yong would not be unaware of the suppression of the gambling saint of Ludao. It was only from the people below that I heard that the gambling saint was suppressed by Run Run Shaw, and then Jin Yong soon ushered in a friend. Huang Zhan didn't think of himself as a guest, and when he entered the door, he asked Jin Yong with a smile: "Lao Cha, do you know what happened to Li Le's young man being suppressed by Run Run Shaw?" You have a good relationship with both of you, can you help you talk? ”

Jin Yong and Run Run Shaw have a good dead end, when the Five Tigers were promoted wirelessly, Run Run Shaw asked Jin Yong to give an inscription. It is also the personal relationship between Jin Yong and Run Run Shaw that wireless can hold the film and television copyright of Jin Yong's novels. Although the friendship with Li Le is not long, Jin Yong takes great care of Li Le. Seriously calculated, Jin Yong and Li Le's friendship is not shallow. (To be continued......)
