After listening to the second brother's words, Xu Guanwen also nodded in agreement.

Since the company was first established, it was decided not to accept Golden Harvest's shares. Then the release of the film should not be completely dependent on Golden Harvest.

"It's time to leave the shelter of Golden Harvest and let us stand up for ourselves." After Xu Guanwen put down the phone, he said to Xu Guanjie seriously.

……

"Fa Qian Han" was hurriedly painted thirteen days after its release, and the box office only sold 4 million Hong Kong dollars. But it was already the highest box office in Hong Kong in the first half of '74, and if it wasn't for the rush of painting, it might have sold for 5 million Hong Kong dollars.

Regarding the sudden painting of "Fa Qian Han", Golden Harvest's explanation is that the attendance rate is too low, and continuing to screen it means losing money.

But this explanation can't deceive the audience, obviously there are still a large number of people queuing up to buy tickets, how can the attendance rate be too low? And "The King of Seven Provinces", which was released at the same time as "Fa Qian Han", is still being released at the moment, and the box office has not exceeded one million.

The films that did not sell well continued to be released, but the films that sold well were drawn in a hurry, which naturally had other strange things.

"Sing Tao Daily" soon published an article, "The Xu brothers and Golden Harvest are at odds, and there is something strange about the rush of "Fa Qian Han"! ”

The article details the beginning and end of the Xu Brothers' company, and even the old news that Sir Shaw Yifu missed "Ghost Horse Double Star" because of his picking.

The article pointed out that at the beginning of the establishment of the Xu Brothers Company, Golden Harvest intended to invest millions of shares, but Xu Guanwen politely refused, which made Zou Wenhuai and tycoon dissatisfied.

After the big sale of "Ghost Horse Double Star", Zou Wenhuai once again proposed to buy shares, but was politely rejected by Xu Guanwen, which once again deepened the suspicion between the two.

What triggered the discord between the two was the distribution rights of "Serpentine Trickster" and "Fa Qian Han" in Taiwan.

As soon as the report was published, it caused an immediate sensation.

Although the Xu Brothers company has just been founded, and there are only three works of "Ghost Horse Double Star", "Snake Trickster" and "Fa Qian Han", these three movies have been box office hits and have repeatedly created blockbuster miracles.

The three brothers Xu Guanwen, Xu Guanjie, and Xu Guanying, as well as Hong Jingbao, Cheng Long and other seven little blessings, took advantage of Bruce Lee's death and the vacuum period when the stars were bleak.

In a short period of time, he has become a film and television star sought after by everyone, and the limelight has overshadowed all stars in the same period.

The so-called popular people have many rights and wrongs, good things don't go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles.

Suddenly, it seemed that the whole of Southeast Asia knew that the Xu Brothers company had fallen out with Golden Harvest Cinemas.

For a while, there are those who are curious, those who are surprised, those who sigh, and those who fall into the well......

When Zou Wenhuai saw the report published by "Sing Tao Daily", he smiled coldly, and talked eloquently in the face of the reporter's interview, stating that the hasty painting of "Fa Qian Han" was definitely not suppressed. The Hui Brothers Company is an independent production company, and it is his freedom to distribute the works he creates, and he will never turn his face for this reason.

When Sir Shaw Yifu saw this report, although his heart blossomed, he still put on a regretful face when he was interviewed by reporters.

"Xu Guanwen is a very talented actor, but his business vision is not high enough and he chose the wrong partner. Whether I can accept him back, this question, I appreciate Xu Guanwen's talent, if he wants to come back, I will naturally welcome him with both hands. But the Shaw also has the Shaw system, and I hope he will be able to abide by it. ”

The inside of the Xu Brothers company is shrouded in dark clouds, and the wind is loud.

Xu Guanwen and Xu Guanjie have been busy contacting the film distributors in Nanyang in recent days, and in the face of an interview with reporters, they also denied turning their faces with Golden Harvest, as for the hurried painting of "Fa Qian Han", they argued that the theater chain is controlled by Golden Harvest, and they have the right to make decisions on the release and painting of the film, and it is inconvenient for them to comment.

……

The statements given by Golden Harvest and Xu's Brothers are very conservative, and they try to take care of the face of both parties to maintain a relationship.

But reporters who don't get the breaking news naturally won't give up, and since neither of you will speak ill of the other, then I can only "uphold justice" for you.

As a result, all kinds of reports were derived.

For example, the boss of Golden Harvest sold the distribution rights privately, and the money had been collected but nothing was done, which made the Taiwanese film businessman angry and scolded his mother; The Hsu Brothers Company was unwilling to be restrained and bypassed Golden Harvest to contact Taiwanese gangs. The elite of the Bamboo Union gang smuggled into Hong Kong, and people were already lurking in the port and going ashore at any time; Jiahe Zou Wenhuai is old and into the flowers, and he is the chief female artist of the Xu Brothers Company. However, the artist Bing Qingyujie swore to die, which caused Zou Daheng's strong dissatisfaction......

Rumors are flying all over the sky, and those reporters are like chickens, and any little wind and grass can make them excited.

Just when the newspapers and media were scrambling to report that the Xu brothers were at odds with Golden Harvest, the Xu brothers, who were on one side, had already made contact with the Nanyang filmmakers.

Cathay branches in Malaysia, Thailand and Singapore have all agreed to release "Serpentine" and "Fat Money", but the price is very low, half cheaper than "Ghost Horse Double Star".

Although Xu Guanwen also knew that they were insatiable, he didn't expect to be so ruthless.

Although "Serpentine Trickster" and "Fat Cold" are not as popular as "Ghost Horse Double Star", the box office of the two films together has surpassed the box office of "Ghost Horse Double Star".

Now the copies of these two movies add up, but they are only half of "Ghost Horse Double Stars", which makes Xu Guanwen lose more than 2 million Hong Kong dollars.

"We are showing these two films of yours to offend Jiahe's side. So you have to compensate us. The manager of the Cathay Pacific branch said brazenly.

hated Xu Guanwen very much, and wanted to imprint his No. 38 leather shoes on his No. 48 face.

……

After the end of the talks, Xu Guanjie frowned and said: "Big brother, they have pressed the price too low, the two films only sell for two million Hong Kong dollars, and we can't make any money at all." ”

"Humph! I would never sell it for this price. Xu Guanwen also said angrily, "I promised them this time, and I will get it in the future?" ”

"It seems that we are in too much of a hurry, so they have no fear." Xu Guanjie said, "Why don't we go and ask the sixth uncle?" ”

"Uncle Six will not agree to let his theater release our movie." Xu Guanwen thought about it, shook his head again, and said, "What's more, the Shaw Brothers movie still has to be scheduled, how can it give us a chance?" ”

"If you don't give it a try, how do you know if it's going to work?" Xu Guanjie said, "Several of Shaw Brothers' movies this year are not very popular, but the self-produced and self-sold meat is rotten in the pot, so it is just maintained." Our two movies must make money, I don't think he will push the money out. ”

"Let's take a look first, in case Cathay's group of people cut the price." Xu Guanwen hesitated.

As a rebel general of the Shaw Brothers, after falling out with Jiahe, and then going back to see the Shaw Brothers' face, Xu Guanwen felt that his face was hot and uncomfortable.
