Chapter 189: Looks like a god

At the summary meeting of the new art city, the struggle of the seven-person group sat down below, and Lei Juekun talked eloquently, the goal is also the Oriental Cinema under the name of Tengfei Entertainment, compared to Jiahe, he is more hostile to the Oriental Cinema, a theater joined by the Golden Princess, was fooled into joining the Oriental Cinema, which caused an uproar in the theater, and some shareholders who were dissatisfied with Lei Juekun's dictatorship took the opportunity to connect in series, and there was a faint trend of independence.

"I don't care what method you use, you must suppress the Oriental Cinema Line, Wang Zichuan's kid is a big ghost, and he can quietly win the Shan Cinema Line, he must have prepared a few film sources, Princess Jin is responsible for blocking the distribution channels of the Oriental Cinema Line, and Xinyicheng is responsible for suppressing the box office of Tengfei Entertainment!"

"I have discussed it on the Golden Harvest side, and I will block the Oriental Cinema Line throughout the summer, that is to say, Tengfei Entertainment can only produce its own films and distribute them by itself, and within three months, there will definitely be problems with the capital chain."

Zeng Zhiwei whispered: "Boss Lei, as far as I know, "Nightclub" has been sold at a sky-high price of 50 million in other cities, and the newspapers have reported it for several days in a row, and there are few people in Hong Kong who don't know, and I'm afraid that Tengfei Entertainment's funds will not be so easy to dry up." ”

Lei Juekun retorted: "Where did he get the money to rent the theater line, this is a business of tens of millions, you can rest assured, Tengfei Entertainment does not have much money left, in the case of the theater attendance rate is not high, the franchise theater business will not make money, and the contract will definitely be broken, and the strength of the Oriental Cinema Line will be greatly reduced at that time, and it will no longer be a threat." ”

Mecca rolled her eyes and continued smoking her cigar, he had no ill will towards Oriental Cinema. It's not like Lei Juekun hates it, it's not just him. The same is true of the other six monsters in Xinyi City, and the Golden Princess Cinema Line has no interests for them. The theater is placed there, who is in charge is different? Maybe at any time, they will ask for Wang Zichuan.

Lei Juekun was too stingy, not only controlling the film output of Xinyicheng, but also cutting the cost of film production, which made many of their high-level executives very dissatisfied, he just used Xinyicheng as a money-absorbing tool, and he shared more than half of the money earned by the company. Only a small half is left as working capital, and in the long run, which one is still interested in continuing to play.

Xu Ke was also very distressed, the company had Mecca and others to suppress and force him to shoot comedies, and Lei Juekun also jumped out from time to time to talk about the production method of commercial films, as if the whole company was full of copper smell, which was very different from his own film concept.

Zeng Zhiwei and Teddy Robin didn't think like Xu Ke, there was only one place where they were dissatisfied with the company. Lei Juekun doesn't give them shares, they are just workers, Lei Juekun hates them that day, and he can kick them away.

Lei Juekun was very satisfied with the reaction below. Xinyicheng is an old hen that lays golden eggs, and can earn hundreds of millions of profits for him every year, although Hong Kong's dividends are only about 100 million. But the cinema chain plus the release of other cities is the big one.

"Of course, we can't just hit Takeoff Entertainment. It is a potential enemy, as opposed to Takeoff Entertainment. Golden Harvest is the main enemy, the summer file must not lose, I know you have opinions on reducing the cost of film production, but I hope you think about the company! ”

Mecca has smoked three cigars, but Lei Juekun still talks endlessly, which makes him very unaccustomed, most of the time, he is the one who sits on it, and he is the one who talks endlessly, but Lei Juekun, a layman, actually taught them a lesson, and the money that was invested in the new art city does not know how many times it has earned, and it should be content.

Huang Baiming is even more angry, to say that he is more bored with Lei Juekun's perception than Mecca, he and Mecca and Shi Tian set up a new art city together, slightly his shares are the least, and the few are outrageous, every time he sees a movie made by himself is a big hit, he has an impulse, he wants to run away and set up his own company, why does he have less than one-tenth of the movie dividends.

Lei Juekun looked at Shi Tian with an expressionless face, "Ah Tian, "Family Portrait" is a film directed by you, when can you tell me when it will be released?" ”

Shi Tian cleared his throat first and replied: "Mr. Lei, don't worry, "Family Portrait" is a comedy, starring Xu Guanjie, if the filming is smooth, the schedule should be July." ”

In a word, it is concise and to the point, Shi Tian has long been aware of the defects of the new art city, once he redistributed shares to Lei Juekun Jianyì, or allowed the company to struggle for the seven-person group to buy back shares, but unfortunately Lei Juekun refused, and taught him a lesson, then Shi Tian understood that the new art city will be dissolved sooner or later, recently he put his energy on real estate, Hong Kong housing prices have been falling, he shot a few times, lost millions, the loss of money instead stimulated his interest, he mobilized all the funds, and the house price changed, He's always ready to buy the bottom.

Lei Juekun looked at Mecca, this bald guy is the nominal manager, but his style is a little more domineering.

"Mecca, what do you think?"

Mecca came back to her senses and nodded, "Makes sense, I have no opinion?" ”

Who asked your opinion? Lei Juekun had a black line, and he could see that Mecca didn't hear the speech at all, this bald guy was getting more and more presumptuous, and he didn't dare to breathe in front of him at the beginning.

Xu Ke glanced at Shi Nansheng, he wanted to say a few words, but he couldn't figure out what the consequences would be.

Shi Nansheng shook his head gently, she knows Xu Ke best, her husband likes to be maverick, and he doesn't like others to point fingers the most, but Mecca and Huang Baiming are all strong figures, only Shi Tian is a little better, and he doesn't interfere much with Xu Ke.

Xu Ke plans to leave the new art city! This is something he discussed with Shi Nansheng, he feels that Xinyicheng is no longer suitable for him, since last year's "The Legend of the Swordsman of Xinshu Mountain", he has had the idea of leaving.

"The Legend of the Swordsman of Xinshu Mountain" is a work directed by Xu Ke, who was a native of Xinyi City at that time, but cooperated with Golden Harvest, and was the first sci-fi martial arts film in Hong Kong to hire the American "Star Wars" stunt team to support the stunt shots, which is of epoch-making significance. The cast is very prosperous, including Zheng Shaoqiu, Lin Qingxia, Hong Jinbao, Yuan Di, Xu Shaoqiang, Liu Songren, Li Saifeng, Meng Hi, etc., Hong Kong's top superstars gather in one place, but unfortunately the box office is not satisfactory, making Zou Wenhuai think that Xu Ke is not authentic and has no intention of poaching people.

The reason why Shi Nansheng didn't let Xu Ke bring it up now was because he was afraid that he would anger Lei Juekun, and without the support of Golden Harvest, how could he get mixed up in the Hong Kong film industry if he offended Lei Juekun again.

Lei Juekun didn't know what the seven people below were thinking, if he knew that the seven people were going to go their separate ways, I'm afraid he wouldn't be so proud!

"In the future, Xinyicheng can only produce one big cast every year, I don't interfere with the specific content, it's up to you to decide, other films must be small costs, the budget is less than four million, and whoever wants to exceed the budget will be responsible for making up for it."

Mecca took a cigar in her mouth, disapproving, he is not the only one in Xinyicheng who likes big casts, Huang Baiming, Xu Ke, Shi Tian, Zeng Zhiwei all like it, there is only one quota, who will shoot it? None of the others are convinced, the "Best Partner" series, he has taken advantage of it for three years, Shi Tian has long been resentful, and the next big production will definitely not be "Best Partner".

Xu Ke looked at Shi Nansheng with disappointment, one big cast a year, even if it is a turn, it will take four or five years, how can he waste so much time in Xinyicheng, and he is not in charge of Xinyicheng, there are three on it: Mecca, Huang Baiming, and Shi Tian.

No one objected, Lei Juekun secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he is a businessman, a qiΔ“ looking at interests, a 10 million film and a 3 million film, the former must be twice as much as the latter to make as much money, but 10 million costs can make three small-cost films, the box office adds up, it definitely exceeds 10 million big casts, or even several times, for what box office champion, this kind of unprofitable honor, he doesn't care at all.

"Okay, that's all for today's meeting, you guys think about how to not only hit Tengfei Entertainment, but also beat Golden Harvest Pictures."

Lei Juekun left the conference room, Princess Jin still has something to deal with on his side, the two major shareholders under his command want to set up a film company and make money by themselves, he must prevent them from leaving the Golden Princess Cinema, otherwise the entertainment empire he has worked hard to build will collapse immediately, this is what he is most afraid of, without the Golden Princess Cinema, he has no qualifications to fight against Tengfei Entertainment and Golden Harvest Pictures.

Xu Ke glanced at Shi Nansheng, stood up and said, "I still have some things to deal with, so I'll go back first." ”

Shi Nansheng also found a reason to leave with her husband, she had to persuade Xu Ke well, and she was not in a hurry to leave, she had to think of a way back.

Zeng Zhiwei glanced at Teddy Robin and said with a smile: "What do you guess the two of them do?" ”

Teddy Robin deliberately glanced at Mecca and replied loudly, "What else can I do, people want to do it alone." ”

Mecca extinguished the cigar and said sternly: "There is no basis, don't talk nonsense, let's discuss a film." ”

Huang Baiming said tentatively: "Tell me, do we really want to ban Tengfei Entertainment?" ”

"Blockade fart!" Mecca burst into a foul language, film companies are in competition with each other, blocking this and that, and making everyone the most beautiful, don't they have to rely on Lei Juekun?

Zeng Zhiwei said with a smile: "That's right, we didn't have a holiday with Wang Zichuan, and blocking him can only cheapen Jiahe and ...... Other theaters have nothing to do with us, so why bother with them. ”

Shi Tian also nodded, the largest shareholder of Xinyicheng is Princess Jin, and the largest shareholder of Jinzhuan is Lei Juekun, which means that the most profitable person in Xinyicheng is not their three giants, but Lei Juekun, a person who doesn't understand movies.

Zeng Zhiwei said: "Yongsheng Company asked me to direct a work for them, and I promised them, so there is no schedule recently. ”

Mecca frowned, the new art city is now also starting to take private work, and they all use the new art city as a springboard, it seems that I don't have to take it too seriously. (To be continued......)
