Chapter 190: Talking about cooperation
The Peninsula Hotel's tea restaurant is a gathering place for celebrities in Hong Kong. The main reason is that Mr. Shao likes to come here to drink tea, which attracts some celebrities to come here to talk about opportunities.
Chu Qing, who had just come downstairs, saw many famous Hong Kong stars in the hall. It seems that all the people I saw at the banquet last night were there, but now they all have their own goals.
Ordered a morning tea at random, Chu Qing found a position inside, trying not to be photographed by the paparazzi squatting outside.
After last night's fermentation, the matter of his coming to Xiangjiang has been known by those paparazzi with great powers.
If it weren't for the Peninsula's security efforts, he might not have been able to get out this morning.
But even so, those paparazzi outside also posted some lace news through various channels.
what
"Last night, Li Jiaxin stayed overnight in the boudoir of a wealthy businessman in the mainland and lingered for two hours." And also
"Li Zhi is coming back and wants to marry a new wealthy family in the mainland." Regarding the ability of the Xiangjiang tabloid to catch the wind and catch the shadows, Chu Qing has to say that they have to be professional in terms of professionalism.
It's just lingering for two hours, and it seems that he looks down on him a little too much. I really want to go in, let alone two hours.
"Chu Shengzao!" As soon as Chu Qing ate an egg tart, Zou Wenhuai, who was refreshed, walked over with Yuan Yongyi on his shoulder.
Looking at the appearance of his face full of spring breeze, he knew that he was very comfortable being served last night.
"Boss Zou, this is a happy event, and you are in good spirits." Regarding Xiangjiang's extravagance, Chu Qing could only sigh. After all, people's pursuits are different.
They only care if there is wine today and drunk tomorrow, and they will not care about the flood tomorrow.
"At the opening of today's market, Golden Harvest rose slightly." Zou Wenhuai did not hide it, he just released the release time of "Red Fan District" yesterday, and this morning it was reported by the gossip media, releasing the news that wealthy businessmen in the mainland want to invest.
The stock market only opened in the morning, and it ushered in a wave of rally. It seems that for Xiangjiang Films, many shareholders are still very optimistic about finding a new big water pipe.
"Or will you do business, the specific details have not been discussed, so you will make money first." Chu Qing took a sip of green tea and understood after a little thought.
Xiangjiang people can play finance very clearly. Presumably, last night's lace news was also deliberately released by them.
It is estimated that before I get out of this tea restaurant, the next report will already be written. Think about Yuan Yongyi brought by Zou Wenhuai, it seems that the heroine of "Thunderbolt" is her.
Even if he didn't reach a cooperation with Chu Qing now, he could still create some scandals. Maybe the stock price can still rise a little, and this wave of operations can kill two birds with one stone.
This practice of never suffering a loss has really been used to the extreme by them.
"Where, where! Chu Sheng wants to cooperate, of course, the higher the box office of "Red Fan District", the better. Zou Wenhuai smiled happily, and didn't mind Chu Qing easily seeing through his thoughts.
Businessmen put interests first, and these innocuous small means are inconspicuous in the face of interests.
"Mr. Zou, I said it clearly, I think you also know that BBK and Toshiba have launched a new DVD standard." Chu Qing put away his jokes, his face straightened, and he began to become serious.
To be honest, Chu Qing was not interested in these small actions of the Xiangjiang people at all.
"BBK hopes to further cooperate with the film and television industry in Hong Kong. This kind of cooperation is all-round, as long as you use our DVD standards, not to mention the red fan area, we can invest in the film and television industry of the whole Xiangjiang. Chu Qing's sudden formality made Zou Wenhuai pay attention to it.
"I wonder if Chu Sheng's DVD is the same as VCD?" After more than two years of promotion and application by BBK, VCD now has a trend of replacing video tapes in Xiangjiang.
Yesterday, when BBK and Toshiba jointly released the DVD disc standard, they thought it was just a simple VCD upgrade product.
Therefore, even industry veterans like Zou Wenhuai have not attracted much attention. Now seeing that Chu Qing is so cautious, he also finds that he seems to have been ignored by them.
"You can understand that DVD is an upgraded product of VCD, but its specifications and data are better than VCD. If Mr. Zou has time, he can go to my room later, and we'll see the samples together. "In the battle for DVD standards, in addition to who will launch the standard first to occupy the right to speak, the more important thing is the application of the market.
Although Sony launched the DVD standard a few months in advance, strictly speaking, it is not as good as Toshiba's DVD data.
In the end, it was dominated by Sony, in addition to Sony taking the lead in releasing standards, and more importantly, Sony owns Sony Columbia, one of the six largest in the United States.
It is the first step to obtain the application resources of film and television. Once you get the application resources and put them into the market first, you can take more opportunities.
Chu Qing has no film and television resources in his own hands, and everything depends on buying, which can only have a temporary effect, and cannot determine the outcome of the game.
If you can reach cooperation with these film and television companies in Xiangjiang, you can enter the market one step ahead of Sony, so as to occupy more right to speak.
Especially at this time, Xiangjiang's movies still have a big market in the United States. Jackie Chan's "Red Fan Zone" will earn more than 30 million at the box office in North America next year.
With this opportunity, Chu Qing can let BBK's DVD be the first to enter the North American market. Then when you go to conquer the city, even if Sony's DVD standard comes out, you will lag behind in time.
The battle for DVD standards ultimately depends on who can grasp more of the market. It's the same as Betamax vs. VHS.
Whoever gets the recognition of more content manufacturers will be able to dominate the market.
"The past is just a life experience, not a burden. Junbao, you must cheer up! In the presidential suite, Chu Qing accompanied Zou Wenhuai, watching "Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng" that had just been transcribed into DVD format.
After the format was determined, DVD players were quickly produced. This time, Chu Qing came to Xiangjiang and brought a set with him.
"This clarity is indeed a level higher than that of VCD and videotapes." Looking at the 35-inch TV, Brother Jie's clear face, Zou Wenhuai also had to sigh at the progress of technology.
"Going with fate and riding the wind is my mind" When Hu Weili's soundtrack "Fate" sounded on TV, Zou Wenhuai suddenly felt a shock.
"This sound! How do you do that? With Brother Jie's movements in the picture, the majestic soundtrack rushed towards several people.
In the past, whether it was a VCD or a videotape, even if the best sound was used, the sound effect was somewhat distorted.
Compared to the theater viewing experience, it is much worse. "Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng" Zou Wenhuai has also watched it several times on many occasions.
It was the first time he had heard it on TV, and it was a sound that rivaled that of a theater.
"This is our latest DTS5.1 surround sound. In the hands of good equipment, it is possible to perfectly present the original sound effects of the movie. ”
"It's basically cinematic, and if you're recording with our DTS equipment during the shoot, you can get more results when you convert it to DVD format. I don't know if you've seen Jurassic Park, so they added our DTS sound effects, and the renovated theater can achieve a surround stereoscopic effect, making people sound immersive. ”
