Chapter 426: Tokyo Night Talk

Uei took off his leather shoes and put them at the door, walked into the room and sat cross-legged on the tatami mat, bowed slightly and whispered: "Sun San, your TV program production center, if there are financial and technical difficulties, we Toho Co., Ltd. are willing to provide any help." ”

That's a bit interesting, but what does Uei mean by that? Sun Ziming took out a cigarette, went to the well and quickly found an old-fashioned ashtray, added some water to it, and put it on the small coffee table in front of him.

Through the smoke of the cigarette, Sun Ziming stared at Uei for a long time, and suddenly laughed, "You guys are in our mainland, have you touched a nose of ash?" ”

Uei nodded awkwardly, the mainland opened up the film market to Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, and Dongbao took the opportunity to send people to Beiping, wanting to cooperate with Beiping Film Studio and CCTV. As Sun Ziming said, he touched the ashes of his nose.

"You still want to partner with me to make TV programs and follow my footsteps and enter the mainland TV market, am I right?"

"Hehe, Sun Sang Yingming."

These Japanese people take advantage of loopholes when they see them, and they really think that everything is as simple as they imagined. Even if he really made the center of the TV program system, it would still be difficult for the program to enter the mainland in the future, not to mention their Japanese program.

It may be that the success of "Manhunt", "Blood Aggregation", etc., has given them great confidence. Don't they know that on the other side of the sea, the quality of film and television works is not the key, and the government's approval is the passport to enter the market?

Seeing Uei's sly smile, Sun Ziming's heart suddenly moved, this dog thing was cheating Lao Tzu again. Uncle Zeng is still better at these things.

"Uewell, let's give a final bottom line. Didn't you people in Hong Kong tell you that there is a big difference in our company about this? ”

Uejing laughed, and Sun Ziming pursed the corners of his mouth, this dog thing has to be knocked down often to know who brought him wealth.

"Uejing, don't forget one thing, our interests are the same!"

The laughter made Sun Ziming pinch his throat, according to the current cooperative relationship between Light and Shadow and Dongbao, Uei's help is already dispensable.

Uei bowed deeply and said apologetically: "Sun Sang, I'm rude!" ”

"It doesn't matter, just know who your real friends are."

Dongbao took a fancy to the distribution ability of the mainland Light Film Company, and the successful release of several films of the Light and Shadow Company, as well as the success of films such as "Pursuit" and "Wangxiang", made them also ambitious. TV shows are just a bargaining chip for them, and if Sun Ziming really lacks funds and technical personnel, they can really help. If there is no shortage, they hope to indirectly hold a part of the shares of the mainland light film company and share their distribution channels.

"This matter can be discussed, but we can't guarantee whether it can help the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television to review it. Uei, can we distribute the film of our North American company through you? ”

Sun Ziming stretched out a finger to indicate that the conditions remained the same, and he was still given 1% of the box office share as compensation.

Uei showed a sincere smile, stretched out his hand and shook Sun Ziming, and said with a smile: "Sun Sang, you are polite, our Great Japanese Empire and the United States are firm allies. ”

After discussing the matter, the two looked at the exterior again, especially the Hongkou Dojo built by Dongbao Company. The scenes in the original are too restrained, crude and not refined enough, and do not conform to the national characteristics of the Japanese.

The Yamato nation has a characteristic, that is, it can do everything to the extreme, and strive for perfection. As a long-established base of the Japanese Black Dragon Society in Shanghai, how can Hongkou Dojo not try its best to show their delicacy?

After returning to the hotel arranged by Dongbao Co., Ltd. and attending the host's welcome reception, the first thing Sun Ziming did was to call back to Hong Kong and ask Uncle Zeng to send someone to Beiping to find Sister Hong. Dongbao Co., Ltd. must have contacted Qiao Daosheng and the others privately, but for what reason they refused to cooperate, Sun Ziming did not believe in the so-called loyalty of the two senior officials.

……

The next filming is Chen Zhen's study life in Japan, the fights and duels in the Hongkou Dojo, which can be regarded as the most exciting part of this movie, and the crew cannot be sloppy at all.

"It's over, call it a day!"

As soon as Sun Ziming's words fell, the voice of Wu Mengt, the assistant assistant director, sounded, "Starting tomorrow, we will have four days off, and we will start work at eight o'clock on January 3." If you go back to Hong Kong, go to Xing Tsai to register and book air tickets, and if you spend New Year's Day in Tokyo, come to me to register, and advance 10,000 yuan for the holiday subsidy. ”

"Yay!"

A young man from Toho Co., Ltd., who was waiting next to him, hurriedly came over, "Sun San, Mr. Izui of the Shrine, I want to invite you to his house for a while, and our section leader, Mr. Uei, will send you over." ”

"Thank you"

The crew members laughed for a while, packed up their things and went back to the hotel, ready to experience the nightlife of Tokyo after attending the New Year's Day reception at Toho Co., Ltd. Back at the hotel, Sun Ziming confessed a few words to Wu Mengt, changed into formal clothes and followed Uei to visit Mr. Nobuyuki Idei.

Nobuyuki Idei invited Sun Ziming to his private garden, and dinner was arranged in a pavilion. It is quiet and tranquil, concise and elegant, giving people a sense of silence and ethereal. It's cold and windy outside, but inside the pavilion it's warm like spring, which is not like eating, but like appreciating the beauty of a Japanese garden.

"Idei-kun, your place is so beautiful."

Sun Tzuming tasted Japanese sake while admiring the tranquil garden, and couldn't help but admire.

"Sun Sang has a good reputation, this is handed down by the contemptible ancestors, and if he can escape the bombardment of that year, he is already the protection of Amaterasu."

A clear water, a few stones express the realm of deep mountains and valleys, under the last trace of sunset, more elegant.

There was no one else here, only Sun Ziming and the others, and Mr. Idei filled him with sake and said earnestly: "Sun San, I have already agreed to Sony's invitation and am going to work in the United States." You've worked with Warner, can you teach you a lesson or two? ”

Finally came, the great god still went to North America, where he ascended the altar, and Toho was still too small. However, this great god is also an old fox, I'm afraid that the target of this belated acquisition is not Warner but Columbia, right?

"The background is good, after all, it is a large company with a long history."

Sun Ziming raised his glass and signaled, and the two touched the glass and drained the sake in the glass. Mr. Idei helped Sun Ziming fill his wine glass again, and said slowly: "Sun San, do you know why, I know that Uei has a private deal with you, but I still have been promoting the cooperation between Toho and Light and Shadow?" ”

Izui is an old fox, and Sun Ziming is also a little fox, and his hand holding the wine glass does not move at all. Uei dug up the diamond in the American Diamond Park, and in the eyes of others, he was lucky, but in the eyes of a discerning person like Idei, it was just a trick.

"Mr. Idei, this is not a joke. Although your company has helped the company open up the Japanese market, the company has also made hundreds of millions of dollars in profits for your company. ”

Izui waved his hand and said with a smile: "Sun Sang was too worried, he didn't harm the interests of the company, he did his partner a big favor, and charged a small commission, although it is not legal, but it is also human nature." There is an old saying in your country, when the water is clear, there are no fish."

Sun Ziming smiled slightly and stopped talking, letting the old fox sing a one-man show, just like the dead ghost David said, the law is just a net, and the small fish can't catch the great white shark. As long as the light and shadow can bring huge profits to Dongbao, it doesn't matter whether the commission is collected or not. Everyone knows this.

"Sun San, Sony holds 11% of our shares, and we also hold 1% of their shares. If possible, we hope that we can have a pleasant cooperation in North America. ”

Well? It's no wonder that this old fox was able to go from the vice president of Toho to Sony to be the president of the North American branch, it turns out that the two of them are also cross-shareholding. After pondering for a while, Sun Ziming finally spoke, "Mr. Idei, although the North American Light and Shadow Company is wholly owned by me, it should be regarded as an American-funded company. There should be no obstacle for American films to enter the Japanese market, right? ”

"Theoretically, that's true."

Sun Ziming was silent again, this old fox wanted to copy the cooperation model between Dongbao and Light and Shadow, and take a stake in a company in North America. , the reputation of making your own movies without losing money is too big, and even alternative movies like "Gunfire" can be a box office hit, no wonder this dog thing wants another piece of the pie!

Looking at this confident old fox, Sun Ziming felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart, absolute strength does not need to play tricks at all, unless the North American Light and Shadow Company gives up the Japanese box office. The Japanese don't have a fucking personality that Americans can't help it.

"Idei-kun, I need to think about it, don't you have yet to take office in the United States."

"Sun San, some things are mutually beneficial, but when it comes to the United States, the meaning is different. In their white eyes, we are all yellow-skinned monkeys. Sun Sang, we put aside the relationship of interests, we still have the same skin, hair, and eyes. ”

Sun Ziming smiled slightly, in addition to interests, there is also national hatred between China and Japan, everyone will come together out of interests, but it is impossible to be careless. If everyone falls into a situation, I'm afraid he will be the same as himself.

Izumi is worthy of being an old man, seeing that his grandson is not open, he knows what he is thinking after a little thought, but he knows that this is an unavoidable knot.

"Sun Sang, I believe that we will cooperate happily after a long time."

"I hope so"

The two wine glasses touched, and the two began to drink and chat.

……

Bidding farewell to the well, it was already more than nine o'clock in the evening, and Sun Ziming got into the well car and left. A few hundred meters away from the garden of Idei's house, Sun Tzu Ming asked about the details of Idei, how this great god was different from 'history'.

"Sun San, vice president of Idei is also the head of Sony's market development department, and we asked him to develop the market for us. His cousin, Mr. Takayuki Idei, is the president of Sony Corporation. ”

I understand, I took Ghost Li as Li Kui, but this Ghost Li is also difficult to deal with. Not long after, Uei sent Sun Ziming outside a quiet alley and laughed in a low voice: "Sun San, Miss Fujiwara is here to pick you up." ”
