No one knows what they talked about that day.

In short, Mayfly Pictures' movies can be screened on the Lianhua Line under Yindu in the future, and it is not exclusive, the Yindu Line was originally ranked last among the four major cinema chains on Hong Kong Island, all of which are showing Zuopai films and small-budget independent films, the latter just for just a meal.

Anyway, after Princess Jin was opened to foreign dramas, isn't it common for them to learn from small-scale theaters like this? Mayfly Pictures' standard independent film company, and the movie is a low-budget horror film, what's so strange about being on the theater over there?

……

Lao Gui basically did a good job in the editing of "Eight Immortals Restaurant", Li Lecheng added a soundtrack to the movie, and made a few reasonable suggestions, Xu Ke basically didn't change much after reading it, and everyone unanimously passed it with satisfaction!

"I think...... The box office will not be low! Xu Ke himself was very optimistic, and then he thought of Li Lecheng's script of "The True Color of Heroes", which had changed almost half of the time after the second processing, and his mood began to be depressed: "Oh, you already knew that this version of the script was made like this, so I was reluctant to let Lao Wu be the director!" ”

"There is no turning back from the start of work, I signed the contract with him!" Li Lecheng comforted: "You delete women's plays, he is good at men's plays, and everyone shoots their own good." ”

Because the effect was so good, Li Lecheng decided to try to expand the scope of the screening, and this time he found Fang Yihua:

"Sixth aunt, you see, I didn't tell Princess Jin about the special screening of this drama at the beginning, and now I can't go to Jiahe's theater except for Jiahe, can Shaw Brothers also ......" Li Lecheng asked.

"Pan Di has rented our best 4 theaters, and the remaining 12 are also open to outside theaters. But attendance has been sluggish. Fang Yihua is in a complicated mood when he sees him now, "What kind of low-cost perverted horror movie of yours is really ruining the image, and you are not short of money, so don't show it at all." ”

Li Lecheng hurriedly said: "No, I've worked so hard." ”

He has put himself in shock, wouldn't it be in vain if he didn't release it?! Until now, he can't eat meat and buns.

Fang Yihua sighed and nodded, if you have a business, you can't make money if you don't make money:

"One is four or six open, these theaters are older and smaller, and the location is not so good, I will give you the internal price, which is equivalent to the movie invested by Shaw Brothers, only 40% is charged, but we don't care about all the publicity. The condition is that your movie must be shown after our TV series airs, I'm afraid that you will play a pervert and no one will watch the episode! The second is to divide the accounts according to the time ladder. ”

Li Lecheng didn't hesitate: "Four or six open." "Princess Jin is closed over there, he is tantamount to rubbing here, and the more the theater talks, the more capable he is.

Fang Yihua nodded, didn't stay on this topic for long, but chatted about something else: "Alas! Your sixth uncle said that he knew that you were suddenly so popular, and he regretted cutting the film business...... Alas! ”

Wow –

Aunt Six's tone is so soft!

I've never heard her speak to him so well.

Fang Yihua's secretary refilled the coffee for them and accosted: "You can also recover in the future!" ”

"But the directors... Screenwriter...... Actors...... Those who are capable and famous are gone! We knew we were going to stop production before, and we didn't renew the contract when the contract expired......" Fang Yihua looked depressed.

Right! That's right! Just pick the famous and capable ones to kick away! Because they have a high salary scale!

The four major directors of the Shaw Brothers, there is only one Chu Yuan left who has two or three years of birth contracts, and the former big stars have all been blown out when the contract is full! Like the three brothers of Er Dongsheng who mix up outside, it's okay, but Di Long is miserable!

His contract expired at the beginning of this year, and just as his last Shaw Brothers movie hit the street, he didn't get a contract renewal, and was fired by his old club, and he has been unemployed since then. At that time, there was no rumor that Shaw Brothers was really going to stop production, so he thought that he couldn't do it, and he was fired for squid, and he was extremely depressed for a while, and he suddenly got older, his face collapsed, and his hair fell out.

Li Lecheng asked him the day before yesterday to talk about the drama appointment of "The True Color of Heroes", and he almost cried with joy!

Fang Yihua saw that Li Lecheng didn't react, and immediately asked: "You said that I hired a few promising new directors to Shaw Brothers to make movies for you?" ”

The kind of people who have qualifications, fame, and can make money will naturally not want to come! Even when Shaw Brothers is profitable, it is still the old and rigid Shaw Brothers.

"Aunt Six, why bother...... Now, except for those who make literary films, few people are willing to come. No matter how good your vision is, you can't gamble with me or a few new directors, the audience for literary and artistic films is so much, and the literary and artistic films that sell well every year are just that, and a few films raise more than 2,000 people, and the loss is more than the profit. ”

Fang Yihua has actually spent a few years proving this, not that making literary films does not make money, but making a small amount of money but making such a big machine to move and burn more oil, Shaw Brothers has always been reluctant to make high-cost movies, and can only rely on production and low cost and high rate of return to make money, but why should people who have the ability to make small and broad abilities stay in Shaw Brothers?

What kind of ecology is Shaw Brothers?

Stingy. But anyone who can make a living in the circle is not willing to come to Shaw Brothers to work, Jiahe makes people greedy for a dime but can earn back a dollar, and Shaw Brothers is to let the company keep this dime, but lose a dollar. In Shaw Brothers, all the reported expenses will be cut in half by Fang Yihua's people.

Rigidity. Because it is huge, it is very rigid and outdated in management, and it is extremely difficult to make changes. Everything must be strictly approved by the process, and no one dares to advance money to do anything related to the movie, otherwise it will be treated as greedy ink and kickbacks. For example, even if only one light bulb is broken, it is better to let the entire crew stop work for three hours, go through the approval process, and then go to the public account to buy the light bulb back, and no one dares to buy a light bulb out of their own pocket, even if everyone knows that the loss caused by the three-hour shutdown is enough to buy 300 light bulbs.

Why are other big film companies on Hong Kong Island opening independent subsidiaries or studios for their talents? It is to circumvent the problems encountered by Shaw Brothers and at the same time protect the respective interests of both parties.

Fang Yihua choked, but Li Lecheng was so popular, she couldn't use it by herself to guard Baoshan, she felt very at a loss, and now the outside price of 2 million is asking Li Lecheng to film a film! But she doesn't have a job here, what can she do?!

But since she put it forward today, she must have some ideas, she expressed her unrelenting thoughts about the movie, and the bitter meat plan was sold out, she opened a folder: "This is our roster of creative staff that has not yet been filled, you pick people, let's try again...... I personally recommend him! ”

Li Lecheng took a closer look:

Wang Jin?!

"Wang Tianlin's boy! Young people, the mind is very lively. He made a lot of money by making two low-budget films for Shaw Brothers before, and in terms of rate of return, he was the highest in the whole Shaw Brothers since the 80s, and he didn't know how much better than those outdated old things. ”

"Aunt Six, what do you mean?"

"If Shaw Brothers doesn't fall, he will not be able to have a free body for three years, all the companies outside want him, and let him lend it to others, I am afraid of raising tigers and helping others. But if he doesn't need to refrigerate, his contract expires after three years, and if Shaw Brothers hasn't resumed production, he will have to let him go, and there is no filming, he himself is more afraid than anyone else. So, I signed a supplementary contract with him, and every time he filmed a film outside, he would have to make up for Shaw Brothers in the future, and the contract would be automatically extended for four months. I'll lend him to you, but the movie is going to be on the Shaw Brothers Cinemas, as soon as you use him, he owes me a drama contract, and I can extend his contract, what? ”

"Sixth aunt, I said it earlier, I will definitely cooperate with you." When Li Lecheng heard this, there was such a good thing, "Where is he now?" ”

Fang Yihua said proudly: "When I decided to stop production before, he shouted that he would starve to death if he didn't work, I couldn't be annoyed, but I definitely couldn't let him direct to outsiders, so let him pack up with Wang Zuxian and lend it to Jiahe as an actor and act."

Jiahe really wanted him to let him play the leading role, and in order to befriend him, they let him play the leading role. Now that this drama has just entered the Shaw Brothers studio, do you want to see it? ”

It sounds like Lao Wang's way of dealing with the contract.

"......" Li Lecheng was speechless by Fang Yihua's operation. And he didn't have to think about it to know that Wang Jin must be one of the people who hate him the most in the Shaw Brothers now. Fang Yihua was not afraid of abducting him by himself.

Li Lecheng vaguely remembered that Lao Wang's mother had mentioned that Fang Yihua's inventory resources that fed Lao Wang before seemed to have such a part, Wang Jin, the little chubby dun and Lao Wang, played a couple, playing contrast and cute. When I think about it, I think the picture will be interesting. Since he came back from overseas, Lao Wang has also stopped picking his feet and entered the group, and he hasn't met him for a long time, so it's better to go and see what is going on.

Li Lecheng went to their crew's studio with the mentality of watching the excitement, who knows, he just saw Wu Qihua in ancient costumes standing on the periphery of the crew and talking to Lao Wang.

That look is even more stupid than when he played the dragon knight.

"Wow! Let's just say it! Back then, he should have been asked to play the dragon knight, obviously I defeated him on the Fengyue front, why do you say that he is more popular than me and can't play the dragon knight, this expression is not in place than me?! ”

Li Lecheng sighed in his mouth!
