"Let the Bullets Fly" was released for half a month, and the cumulative box office has exceeded 40.34 million, setting off an uproar in the entire film circle, some small and medium-sized cinemas took advantage of this to make a fortune.

Golden Harvest, the whole company is filled with a sense of melancholy, "Rich Train" has been released for half a month, with a cumulative box office of 18 million, far lower than "Let the Bullets Fly", both the attendance rate and the word of mouth have been thrown out of a few streets by "Let the Bullets Fly".

In the conference room, Zou Wenhuai was smoking a cigar, staring blankly at the fluorescent lamp overhead, He Guanchang lowered his head and counted the number jù, Cai Yongchang and Liang Feng whispered, and Liu Lianghua whispered to Zou Wenhuai to report the financial situation.

"The biggest winner of this year's New Year's stall is Tengfei Entertainment! According to this posture, the final box office of "Let the Bullets Fly" is likely to exceed 70 million, hum! When will Hong Kong also have a box office of 70 million? ”

Zou Wenhuai is very unwilling, the film "Rich Train" has invested a lot of money, which is not less than "Let the Bullets Fly", and the film lineup is not inferior, Cheng Long, Lin Qingxia, Zhong Zhentao, Zhang Manyu, Xu Guanwen, Qin Xianglin, Wu Yaohan, etc., the salary alone has cost tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars, why is the box office so unsatisfactory, just lose to "Let the Bullets Fly", the gap is still twice as big!

He Guanchang said: "Ah Huai, I just calculated the number announced by Tengfei Entertainment, half of the people in Hong Kong go to the Oriental Cinema Line, the box office can exceed 70 million Hong Kong dollars, and the number of moviegoers will reach 2.5 million, which is incredible." In the past two years, we have also counted that the highest number of moviegoers is "Best Partner" in Xinyi City, accounting for a quarter of the total population, and it has only been a long time since the number of moviegoers has doubled! ”

Liang Feng lifted his glasses and reminded: "I think Tengfei Entertainment's publicity is in place, which we Golden Harvest think is not as good as it, "Let the Bullets Fly" has not yet been released, and it will broadcast short films on TVB and Asia TV in an all-round way, especially Asia TV. Every two hours, it is played, and it is played without gaps during the early hours of the morning, such a bombardment of propaganda, it is strange not to go to the cinema to see it! ”

Liu Lianghua added: "Another reason is that Ascendas Entertainment has increased the box office price, with a single box office of HK$25, an increase of 30% compared to last year. The corresponding box office is also up 30%, if "Let the Bullets Fly" was released last year, the box office would be about 27 million, hehe...... It's not very high either. ”

Cai Yongchang said: "You haven't mentioned the theater yet. This is the main reason, the scale of the Oriental Cinema Line under the command of Tengfei Entertainment exceeds that of Golden Harvest, and the distribution of major cinemas is also very reasonable, and there are Tengfei Entertainment's cinemas in various villages in the New Territories, Wong Tai Sin, Kwun Tong and other places. There are also some theaters that are open 24 hours a day, and their potential has been tapped to the maximum, which we Golden Harvest is not good enough. I plan to follow the Oriental Cinema Line to formulate the release rules...... By the way, Ah Huai has one more thing, I think it's very abnormal, in the Golden Princess Cinema in recent days, several theaters have painted "Best Partner" and released "Let the Bullets Fly", such a strange move, Lei Juekun didn't interfere and let it go! ”

Zou Wenhuai was surprised: "There is still such a thing? This is not Lei Juekun's temperament! ”

Liu Lianghua pondered for a while, and first guessed: "I heard that in addition to the problem of Xinyicheng Pictures, is it that Mr. Lei's attention is focused on Xinyicheng and ignoring Princess Jin, which made Wang Zichuan take advantage of the loophole." ”

Cai Yongchang argued: "I also thought about this possibility, but the incident has happened for three days, and Lei Juekun should have reacted no matter how slow he was!" ”

"Could it be that the contracts of these theaters expire, and Wang Zichuan pulled them over!"

He Guanchang thinks that it may be the most reliable, Lei Juekun is not a fuel-efficient lamp, when the Golden Princess Cinema was established, the profit was second only to the Golden Harvest Cinema, the popular schedule, and the box office was even better, how could he tolerate his subordinates defecting to the hostile camp.

Zou Wenhuai instructed: "Don't guess, call Liu Minghui of Xinyicheng and ask him what happened?" ”

Liu Lianghua said: "I'll do it immediately!" ”

Zou Wenhuai nodded and continued: "This time we will summarize, wait for the internal backbone staff to be notified, and hold a special meeting, since the establishment of Tengfei Entertainment, we Jiahe has been difficult to turn over, if you don't ask, in the long run, everyone has no sense of identity with Jiahe, and they all go to Tengfei Entertainment!" ”

Liang Feng praised: "This is very necessary, last year, our Golden Harvest screenwriters lost a lot of talents, all of whom were attracted by the new welfare policy of Tengfei Entertainment, and at the meeting, we also promised to change the welfare policy to compete with Tengfei Entertainment." ”

He Guanchang shook his head slightly, and sighed: "What kind of means are Wang Zichuan engaged in, after the establishment of Tengfei Entertainment, the Hong Kong film industry has changed greatly, the box office is getting higher and higher, and it is scary, at that time, the box office exceeded 20 million was enough for us to brag about it, and now it is good, the box office is less than 30 million, no one cares, the box office exceeds 40 million, the audience takes it for granted, the box office exceeds 60 million, and then they will be surprised and sigh, and now "Let the Bullets Fly" has broken the box office record, and it is very likely to exceed 70 million Hong Kong dollars, In the future, our Golden Harvest will not blow it. ”

Zou Wenhuai's face is gloomy, this is also the problem he is worried about, Tengfei Entertainment has become a representative of the Hong Kong film industry, everyone mentions Hong Kong movies, they will think of Tengfei Entertainment, which has been accustomed to Hong Kong, if it spreads to the United States and Japan, it will be a fatal blow to Golden Harvest's overseas influence, calculating that Tengfei Entertainment will not produce a Hollywood blockbuster, Hollywood will also make a special trip to Hong Kong to find Tengfei Entertainment to cooperate, and businessmen come for profit.

"Ah Huai has a big incident!"

Liu Lianghua ignored his image and trotted in all the way, and his discolored expression startled everyone.

"What's going on, is there something wrong with Xinyi City?"

"Something must have happened to Xinyicheng!"

"Speak slowly, drink saliva first!"

Zou Wenhuai hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Let Ah Hua rest, you all sit down!" ”

Liu Lianghua calmed down and said slowly: "The new art city is on the verge of disintegration, and the Golden Princess Cinema is also in danger, Lei Juekun decided to stop, Mecca and Lei Juekun have frequently met with Wang Zichuan in the past few days!" ”

"Such important news, we were actually kept in the dark!"

Zou Wenhuai smiled, and then smiled, and his bitter smile made people feel intimidating and pitiful.

Liu Lianghua said: "Ah Huai, what do you say we should do?" The new art city collapsed, just an hour ago, Huang Baiming announced that he would join Debao Company, Mecca announced that he would join Tengfei Entertainment, and the new art city was officially dissolved! ”

Zou Wenhuai smiled bitterly: "It's really a coincidence, if we hadn't taken the initiative to ask, we would have seen this news in the newspaper tomorrow!" ”

Liang Feng also felt very humiliated, and said angrily: "Hong Kong is a big place, such a big thing has been hidden from us for so long, looking at this situation, Wang Zichuan must have known the news a long time ago, what is the ending of the Golden Princess Cinema, there is no part of our Golden Harvest!" ”

He Guanchang said: "Let's talk to Lei Juekun about leasing Lisheng Cinemas, before the establishment of the Golden Princess, Lisheng Cinemas joined Jiahe Cinemas, and the cooperation between the two sides is very pleasant, the current situation is that Oriental Cinemas are specialized in the past, Golden Princess Cinemas is about to be disbanded, we Jiahe Cinemas are facing Oriental Cinemas alone, basically there is no chance of winning, leasing Lisheng Cinemas can relieve pressure and further narrow the box office gap with Tengfei Entertainment." ”

Liu Lianghua continued: "After the release of "Nirvana Train", the finance department has sufficient funds, and I think I can give it a try. ”

Zou Wenhuai said: "Try your best, Wang Zichuan is so keen on expanding the cinema chain, our chance is very small." ”

He Guanchang was puzzled: "Ah Huai, I have never understood why Wang Zichuan is keen on merging cinemas, Tengfei Entertainment has been established for more than two years, and we are very clear about the strength of gold absorption, counting the surrounding interests, at least four hundred million a year, at least half of the money is used in the merger of cinemas, how can Wang Zichuan be willing to do it!" ”

"There is a give-and-take!" Zou Wenhuai recalled the conversation he had with Wang Zichuan last time, and said in an astonishing tone: "He wants to merge all the theater chains in Hong Kong, and the rules of the game are set by him!" Let him succeed, and then we will have to compromise! ”

Liu Lianghua was surprised: "This merger of the Golden Princess Cinema Line is his last step?" ”

Zou Wenhuai shook his head slightly, and sneered: "Our Jiahe Cinema Line is the last step in his plan!" ”

"What a big appetite!" Liang Feng showed a look of ridicule, no matter what, Golden Harvest Cinema Line would not leave Golden Harvest and sell it to Tengfei Entertainment.

He Guanchang was silent, he felt that Wang Zichuan was very likely to do this step and merge the Golden Princess Cinema Line, the scale of the Oriental Cinema Line was three times that of the Golden Harvest Cinema Line, what would they use to resist, at most it would take a few years at most.

Zou Wenhuai extinguished his cigar and reminded: "We are already one step behind, we can't let Wang Zichuan be beautiful anymore, Ah Hua, you help me make an appointment with Lei Juekun, I will personally negotiate with him, Lisheng Cinema is our best chance to turn over." ”

Liu Lianghua said: "Well, I understand. ”

Liang Feng volunteered: "Ah Huai, I'll go find out the actual situation, a good Golden Princess Cinema, how can it be like this, even Lei Juekun can't control the situation!" There must be something greasy among them, and if we find the crux of the problem correctly, our chances will be bigger! ”

"Not bad!" Zou Wenhuai nodded and ordered: "Ah Chang, you and Manager Liang will go to check together, one will start with Xinyi City, and the other will start with Tengfei Entertainment, and it is best to check Wang Zichuan's recent movements." ”

"Leave it to me!"

He Guanchang smiled, he has a godson and a goddaughter, and it is easy to inquire about these things.

Zou Wenhuai announced: "This afternoon's internal meeting will be postponed to tomorrow afternoon, everyone should go and get busy!" (To be continued......)

PS: Today's No. 1, I originally wanted to rush to the monthly ticket list, classified, and I didn't dare to think about the total list.

At the beginning, I was in eighth place, and after 20 minutes, I fell down, and now I have fallen to more than 100, hey, I feel like I was slapped in the face.

New Year's Day holiday......
