Chapter 568: Rescue the City (I)

Zhang Guozhong seems to be really sincere and inclined to come over this time, not only Lin Xiaozhi can hear the explicit and secret temptation in his words, but even Chen Qiang can hear it.

Regarding Zhang Guozhong's artistic ability, Lin Xiaozhi has always had ideas. It's just that he bought out the entertainment shares held by the famous brand king Pan Disheng, although Pan Disheng held a large number of entertainment shares, but when Zhang Guozhong sold the shares to him, it was just to invoke a help, and Pan Dickson's movies were just advertising for his major brands, so the agreement signed by the two was clearly written in black and white, and Pan Disheng only had the authority to supervise and share the company's growth dividends, and the management rights were firmly held by him.

The contract also stipulated that the sale of the shares by Pan Disheng was subject to the consent of Zhang Guozhong, and that Zhang had the right of first refusal. When Pan Disheng sold his shares to him privately, he didn't inform Zhang Guozhong that it was not authentic, and this famous brand king was not ready to continue to stay in the film industry in the future, so he naturally patted his ass and took the money and walked away in style. And afterwards, Zhang Guozhong pretended not to remember this article, and turned the matter over lightly, saying that he owed the other party a favor. In addition, Zhang Guozhong's reputation and connections in the circle are very good, so in the past few years, although Lin Xiaozhi has repeatedly wanted to completely bring Yineng under his command, he can't find a chance to make a move.

It's good now, he Zhang Guozhong sent it to the door himself.

He naturally didn't want to miss such a good opportunity, so he gave Chen Qiang a look at him at the moment, and Chen Qiang said knowingly: "The relationship between Media Asia and Yineng is like a family, if Mr. Zhang really encounters difficulties, I believe that the board of directors will approve us to lend a hand." I just don't know what kind of help is needed for the arts? ”

Because Media Asia is a listed company, the shares of Arts Energy held by Lin Xiaozhi have not been transferred to the name of Media Asia. In the past few years, although there has been a lot of cooperation between Media Asia and Entertainment, such as several movies starring Zhou Yan and Liu Dehua that Entertainment Energy has invested, Media Asia has also invested a sum of money.

However, because the land auctions over there are small and medium-sized costs, they don't make a lot of money, although there are benefits. But compared with the rich returns of the films made by directors such as Xu Ke and Liu Zhenwei, it is not worth mentioning at all. It is also for this reason that the directors of some institutions stationed on the board of directors of Media Asia have openly and secretly accused Lin Xiaozhi of hiding his selfish motives and using Media Asia's money to show his arts (he is a major shareholder of Arts Energy).

Zhang Guozhong must also know this, so Chen Qiang deliberately said this, just following his boss's mind to imply that although Lin Xiaozhi is the major shareholder of Yineng, Huanya has nothing to do with Yineng, even if he wants to help, he has to pass the board of directors.

Zhang Guozhong obviously understood, but to the surprise of the two, his face did not change at all, but seemed to be relieved, he loosened his tie and nodded: "Lin Sheng, Mr. Chen, you are willing to lend a hand, and I can finally breathe a sigh of relief." If I can, I hope to get a low-interest loan of at least 50 million from Media Asia to ease the company's current financial constraints, and we hope to extend the repayment period to 94 years. In the past few years, the leapfrog exhibition of Media Asia has also brought a great touch to me, and in the next two years, the entertainment will also try to take the blockbuster route, and work the plot and special effects. And you have the best special effects company in Hong Kong, and I hope that Media Asia can give you some technical support in this regard."

Chen Qiang's face was a little strange, although the low-interest loan of 50 million Hong Kong dollars is not very high, it can be regarded as a large-scale loan in the Hong Kong film industry, not to mention that Zhang Guozhong has other requirements. He glanced up at his boss, but now Lin Xiaozhi didn't notice his eyes, but instead had a thoughtful expression on his face.

He thought about it for a while and was about to speak again, but he didn't expect Zhang Guozhong to speak again, "Of course, as a thank you and reward for Media Asia's assistance to Performing Arts, all the movies made by Performing Arts will be handed over to Media Asia in the future, and at the same time, I guarantee that Entertainment Energy will only look forward to Nova's future and advance and retreat with Nova." In addition, as long as Media Asia guarantees not to interfere too much in the operation of the arts, I can also make the decision to sell another 1O Arts shares to Lin Sheng or Media Asia."

When the first half of his sentence came out, Chen Qiang and Lin Xiaozhi didn't care too much. Compared with what the arts can get from Media Asia, it is not too much to hand over all the film lines to Media Asia in the future, and even because Media Asia's channels cover Southeast Asia and even Europe and the United States, it is not an exaggeration to say that he has made money. But when he listened to Zhang Guozhong's later words, not only Chen Qiangqiang was overjoyed, but even Lin Xiaozhi had a happy expression.

Several people here are stupid, Lin Xiaozhi originally held nearly half of the shares of Performing Arts, and he was already the largest shareholder of Performing Arts. If Zhang Guozhong sells him another 1O shares, he has completely obtained a controlling stake in Yineng under the advantage of the other. Moreover, when Zhang Guozhong opened his mouth just now, he was especially selling to 'Media Asia', which aggravated his tone, and the implication seemed that as long as Media Asia was not too involved in the arts and energy management, he would not be disgusted to become a new member or even a subsidiary of the Media Asia department.

This is also something he can't refuse after being coveted for a long time, so Lin Xiaozhi didn't think much about it at all, and almost soon after his words fell, he smiled and nodded in agreement.

The two sides reached a verbal agreement, and the day after tomorrow the agreement was drafted and then discussed in detail, Zhang Guozhong did not stay for a long time, and soon left.

However, before leaving, he said a word to Lin Xiaozhi alone, so that Lin Xiaozhi, who had been hesitant to save the city for a while, finally made up his mind.

He said: "Lin Sheng, it has been an eventful time recently, and we don't talk darkly. It is an indisputable fact that the Hong Kong film industry has been invaded by the triad in the past decade, but it has also caused many film companies and filmmakers at the bottom to get a large amount of money for filmmaking. Now that the Hong Kong government is cracking down, I heard that Kee (Organized Crime and Triad Bureau) and Kee (Commercial Crime Bureau) have begun to investigate the gray capital flowing into the industry by several major associations, and in the past week, I know that there are no less than a dozen film company owners and directors who have been invited to tea. Now that those Taiwanese guys have started to bully people again, if no one stands up, I'm afraid our Hong Kong movies will really be hurt by the tossing vitality"

As he said, the decline of Hong Kong films in the original history was because of the prelude to Hong Kong's crackdown, and after the Hong Kong government completely banned the entertainment tax a year later and opened theaters and entry barriers to European and American capital, American films that relied on strong capital to invade on a large scale relied on millions of large-scale advertising at every turn, and it only took a very short time to successfully reverse the dislike of Hong Kong people towards American movies, and then wait until "Jurassic Park" and "Titanic" A series of American blockbusters have achieved sensational success in Hong Kong, which not only completely defeated the last stubborn resistance of Hong Kong local films, but also made the audience fully realize the gap between Hong Kong films and American blockbusters.

Lin Hsiao-chi doesn't know much about the 'Taiwan Small and Medium-sized Courtyard Business Alliance, a Taiwanese non-governmental organization that was only a flash in the pan in the early nineties, and he only mentioned it a few times in a few Hong Kong film histories and autobiographies of some Hong Kong directors in his previous life.

He remembered that the well-known Hong Kong screenwriter Wen Jun once said, "...... In those years, I caught up with the returning immigrants and walked a group of real materials, leaving a lot of short-sighted and short-sighted movies, and what type of movie is popular. Later, the capital chain was suddenly broken again, and he had to face competition from foreign films and the joint price reduction of some small and medium-sized theaters in Taiwan. After tossing by himself, he was tossed by others again, tossed and tossed, the foreign markets were all gone, and in the end, even Taiwan, which barely kept his capital, was lost, and his hometown Hong Kong was also beaten in, and even local theaters were unwilling to continue to show Hong Kong films. It's getting harder and harder to make money making movies, and everyone thinks it's a fool to continue this money-losing business, so the rest of them are all going to support the elderly, and the few who enter the big 6 are not bad. When Hong Kong films are allowed to go north, those who have run out of money and want to come back to make movies to make money will not only face the threshold, but also face the competition between the big 6 peers and foreign films, and then everyone will not make movies for a few years now, and Hong Kong movies will be over......"

Don't look at Lin Xiaozhi and Yongsheng's boss Xiang brothers have some personal relationships, but he is also jealous and secretly hated the club's invasion of Hong Kong films, and has always regarded it as a cancer in his heart.

As the largest and most powerful film group in Hong Kong, plus the many powerful media in Hong Kong, and the fact that he is the chairman of the Hong Kong Film Society, he has the ability to influence this wave of anti-black led by the British government in Hong Kong. But because the anti-black action can indeed cut off the poisonous hands of some associations to the Hong Kong film industry, he has not been sure when to intervene and do his best to save some film companies.

Now that he was woken up by Zhang Guozhong, and learned that there were still a group of Taiwanese behind the scenes at this time, Lin Xiaozhi suddenly realized that if no one stood up, the Hong Kong film industry would not immediately decline as in the original history because of the butterfly effect of Media Asia, I am afraid that it will be damaged and greatly damaged.

So, it's time for him to make a move.
