Chapter 438: The Two Powers Compete for Hegemony
"No less than four screens?" Du Qifeng was taken aback: "Mr. Chen is not joking? ”
"I'm not one to joke about that." Chen Qiming glanced at him.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Du Qifeng smiled.
Just now, he subconsciously ignored Chen Qiming's identity and questioned it.
After thinking about it carefully, others may not be able to raise the screen of the theater to no less than four, but Chen Qiming can do it.
As the only Hong Kong film and television company in 1996 to make a profit, and up to hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars of the Big Mac, coupled with the rapid occupation of the Southeast Asian market in the past two years, becoming the leading clothing brand of Peacebird, Chen Qiming definitely has the strength to expand his cinema chain and build it into the top in the industry.
After learning from Chen Qiming that Pacific Cinema was going to increase the screen, Du Qifeng no longer had any worries, glanced at Wei Jiahui, he stood up and said:
"If it is really as you said, Mr. Chen, then we have no worries, and we are very willing to join the big family of Qiming Film and Television."
"I look forward to working with you, and I am confident that your participation will empower us to bring more, better and highest-grossing films to the film and television industry."
Chen Qiming got up to shake hands with him.
After a pause, Chen Qiming said: "I decided to merge Pacific Cinemas, Qiming Film and Television, Qiqi Records and other companies into a group company starting next month.
The company officially changed its name to Pacific Entertainment Group.
When the time comes, your Galaxy Image will be directly under this group of companies.
In addition, regarding the films produced by Galaxy Imaging, several of you founders will have a share of the profits of Galaxy Imaging's films, and each person will have five percent.
These revenue shares, I promise, as long as you are in Galactic Imaging for a day, share the achievements for a day. ”
The establishment of a group company is something that Chen Qiming has been thinking about for a long time.
Although it seems that splitting up all the companies will be more conducive to reducing taxes, and it may even be easier to operate reasonable tax avoidance.
However, the company is scattered, which is very difficult to control.
In particular, Chen Qiming is busy with various things every day.
It doesn't matter if this situation is short-term, but after a long time, it is inevitable that there will be a situation of deception.
In order to avoid this situation, and in order to better control all the companies under him, Chen Qiming decided to merge them all into one company.
And there is another benefit to merging all of these companies.
That is, all the money before the company can be circulated.
The money from the record company can go through the head office and then be invested in film and television, and the money on film and television can also be invested in records.
As for the benefits to To Qifeng and others, it seems to be a lot, but in fact it is not much.
Because after Galaxy Image was acquired, Chen Qiming did not plan to meddle in the internal affairs of this company, he was only responsible for making the head office allocate funds for investment.
In this way, the galaxy image is very independent.
Since they are independent, if they want to make money, Du Qifeng and others naturally have to work hard.
For Chen Qiming, the harder they work, the more value they can create for themselves.
Since you want to make people tired and tired, you can't give up any money!
If you want the horse to run, you have to feed the horse grass, Chen Qiming still understands this truth very well.
"Thank you! Thank you, Mr. Chen, please rest assured, Galaxy Image will not let you down. ”
Chen Qiming made the decision to give each of them a 5% share of the film revenue, which made To Qifeng very happy.
Don't look at a bunch of people in the film and television industry, who claim to be literary and artistic people.
But if they don't have money, they're a fart.
All literature and art are based on the condition that there is no worry about food and clothing, and the waist is sufficient.
As long as it's human, there's no one who doesn't like money.
Of course, the level of the two horses is different, what they pursue is fame and the process of success.
And Du Qifeng is obviously not a person of this level.
For To Qifeng now, money is obviously still very important.
Therefore, he was very excited and directly held Chen Qiming's hand and did not let go.
Not only him, but Wei Jiahui, who rarely spoke next to him, also seemed very excited.
A pair of eyes kept scanning Chen Qiming's body, obviously very satisfied with Chen Qiming's new boss.
"You're welcome, everyone will be in the same boat from now on.
I am not a stingy person, I have always believed in the principle of having money to earn and meat to eat together.
If the Galactic Image can create benefits for me, then I naturally can't treat you badly. ”
Chen Qiming smiled.
Who wouldn't buy people's hearts.
He just wants to let Du Qifeng and others concentrate on doing things for themselves and creating benefits for themselves.
Judging from the situation in the dream, Galaxy Imaging doesn't seem to have too many big hit movies.
But there are not many movies with medium quality, or even hot in the disc market.
"Dark Flower", "Dark War", "Gunfire", "Banishment", "Underworld", "Detective" and other works have become classics of gangster films in the future.
These works can fill the small and medium-cost investment market of Qiming Film and Television.
After negotiating business matters, the next thing is purely a private chat.
Chen Qiming and Johnny To chatted about the future of Hong Kong films.
I also talked about Hollywood, but also about the very sluggish economic trend recently.
At half past seven in the evening, Chen Qiming and his party walked out of the Fulin Building.
Originally, Du Qifeng and his plan were to go to a nightclub to have a show.
But because Chen Qiming took Li Ruotong with him.
The smart Du Qifeng and others understand that Chen Qiming may have a big battle tonight.
Therefore, after it was proposed, Chen Qiming resigned once and did not mention it again.
However, although Chen Qiming did not go by himself.
But he still asked Han Cheng to entertain Du Qifeng and them.
"Manager Han, you can accompany Director Du and them to have a good time tonight! Reimbursement by all consumer companies. ”
"Mr. Chen is relieved."
"Mr. Chen, then we'll go first."
"Goodbye, Mr. Chen."
After Du Qifeng and the others said goodbye to Chen Qiming and Li Ruotong, they were taken by Han Cheng to go in style.
Chen Qiming and Li Ruotong were left in place.
"Actually, you can go too, I can go home by myself."
Li Ruotong looks very caring.
"No, let's go, let's go and walk elsewhere by ourselves."
Chen Qiming got in the car first, and waited for Li Ruotong to come up before asking, "Do you want to buy anything, take advantage of my time today." ”
After dealing with more women, slowly, Chen Qiming has some understanding of women.
If you want to talk to them, you might as well buy them a bag or gold and silver jewelry.
Although it seems to be vulgar, it is the case, it is much more convenient to use money to smash than to fall in love.
It was also in the past two years that Chen Qiming gradually realized Da Liu's pickling skills.
It's not a stunt, horizontal and vertical three-plate axes, sending bags and gold and silver jewelry to villas and houses.
This set of three-plate axes goes down, as long as you are not that kind of, you are guaranteed to hold the beauty.
Of course, Chen Qiming is not as proud as Da Liu.
It's not that he doesn't have money.
It's not necessary.
Compared with Da Liu, Chen Qiming has two advantages in addition to gold and silver.
One is that he is outstanding in appearance.
In this era where appearance is the most important, even if he has no money, he is not very short of women.
Another is that he is very powerful in the entertainment industry and can help beautiful women satisfy their career.
has several advantages, so that Chen Qiming does not have to smash several villas for a woman like Da Liu to hug the beauty.
To tell the truth, I have to admire Da Liu, he is not good-looking, and he smashed a bunch of women to bed with money.
can only envy others.
"Forget about shopping! You accompany me to the night market. Li Ruotong said.
Chen Qiming glanced at her, compared to Li Jiaxin's bags and jewelry, Li Ruotong is simply not too well-behaved.
"Let's go shopping first." Chen Qiming started the car.
For Chen Qiming, there is an advantage to shopping at night.
That is, in the dim night, he didn't have to worry too much about being discovered by passers-by.
This allows him to walk on the street without a hat or mask like a normal person.
Because he hadn't been out for a long time, he finally came out once, and Chen Qiming actually felt fresh.
They were visiting Victoria Harbour.
When Chen Qiming visited here the year before last, he still came with Li Jiaxin and Zhou Huimin.
At that time, it was a bustling place, but the buildings on both sides of the street were a bit old.
This time, however, the buildings on both sides of the street have taken on a new look.
The only pity is that there are very few people in Victoria Harbour tonight.
On the entire street, only a few people can be seen scattered, almost less than half of the year before.
This is not the result of the economic crisis.
In general, although the current Southeast Asian brokerage is somewhat depressed, the real economic crisis has not fully erupted.
According to the information that Chen Qiming got from the dream.
The real outbreak of the economic crisis in Southeast Asia will not be until July.
First from Thailand, and then quickly across Southeast Asia.
The main reason why there are few people on the streets tonight is actually martial law.
It is not martial law, mainly as July 1 is getting closer and closer, and in order to avoid major accidents, there are patrol police everywhere throughout Hong Kong.
Don't talk about one step at a time.
But patrols can be seen everywhere.
In addition, the people of Xiangjiang are now very worried about the future, which has caused a very depression on the streets.
Chen Qiming and Li Ruotong walked around for more than an hour.
After encountering a few checks, the two of them were not in the mood to continue shopping, Chen Qiming bought a few pieces of jewelry for Li Ruotong in the nearby Liuliufu, and then went back.
did not go back to Li Ruotong's house.
Chen Qiming opened a presidential suite at the Shangri-La Hotel.
Back at the hotel, after watching TV for a while, the two of them went straight to the point and started playing with adults riding ponies.
Early the next morning, after saying goodbye to Li Ruotong, Chen Qiming continued to rush to the rehearsal room.
97 return rehearsals are in batches.
Not all participating singers and artists rehearsed together, but in different batches.
Chen Qiming's rehearsal time is two weeks.
He's been rehearsing for a week now, and in another week, he's going to give up the rehearsal room for others to rehearse.
When Chen Qiming came to the rehearsal room, Andy Lau, who had just flown back from Treasure Island last night, had already arrived here.
For the next two days, he will rehearse with Chen Qiming.
Chen Qiming's "Chinese" is very suitable for the theme of the occasion, so this evening, Andy Lau will continue to sing this song with him.
"Your company is getting bigger and bigger! I heard that you bought Galaxy Images. ”
As soon as they met, Andy Lau said with a jealous face.
He was really jealous.
thinks he has been in the industry for more than ten years, and he still hasn't gotten rid of his identity as an artist.
Chen Qiming has only been in the entertainment industry for five or six years, and he has actually become a giant in the Hong Kong film and television industry.
The more I think about it, the more annoying it gets.
"Talent and luck, two things are indispensable, you may almost have talent, and you may lose your luck."
Chen Qiming gestured a finger.
"Fart......" Hearing Chen Qiming's words, Andy Lau couldn't help but scold: "You guy, don't you know how to take care of your seniors?" It's still showing off. ”
"Then I won't talk about it." Chen Qiming obediently shut his mouth.
He was afraid of further stimulation, and Andy Lau would be annoyed and angry.
The pain of this guy's life is Tianmu Company.
Chen Qiming mentioned talent and luck, which was like pouring salt into his wounds.
"What are your plans for the next step, can you give me a ride?"
Seeing that Chen Qiming stopped talking, Andy Lau glared at him speechlessly and asked.
"Why, decided to do something big? Aren't you worried about the canopy continuing to happen? Chen Qiming continued to speak venomously.
This time, Andy Lau rarely refuted, but said: "I can't always be an artist." ”
As he spoke, he glanced at Chen Qiming, and his heart was extremely complicated.
Sometimes, it's nice to have a great friend.
But again, it's also very devastating.
Chen Qiming's repeated successes are really not light.
At times, he felt like a supporting character in the biographies of those legends.
However, although often hit.
But Chen Qiming's deeds also inspired him.
He had already decided that he was going to be his own boss.
As the boss, Chen Qiming, a legendary figure who turned into a serf and sang in the entertainment industry, is naturally the best leader.
Chen Qiming stared at Andy Lau's face for a long time: "If you really have this idea, then you can prepare a little more funds this year, and next year at the latest, there will be a big move on my side." ”
"What's the big move?" Andy Lau wanted to ask clearly.
"Just get ready, I'll let you know when the time comes." Chen Qiming did not reveal the secret, and walked directly into the rehearsal stage, "Let's start rehearsal." ”
In the next few days, Chen Qiming kept going back and forth between his home and the rehearsal room.
However, although he is not outside, there is a lot of news about him from the outside world.
First of all, the news of his acquisition of Galaxy Images, as well as the merger of several of his companies into Pacific Entertainment Group Co., Ltd., were exposed, which caused an uproar in the circle.
Several of Chen Qiming's companies are already strong, and there are a large number of partners, and now they have acquired Galaxy Imaging.
In the eyes of people in the circle, I have seen that a film and television giant belonging to Hong Kong is rising.
Stimulated by Chen Qiming's side, on June 10, Golden Harvest and Oriental Film Company (Huang Baiming Company) announced that they would reach a strategic partnership, and the films produced by the two companies will be screened together in the two theaters.
There is no doubt that anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is the warmth of Golden Harvest and Oriental Film Company after they felt the threat of Pacific Entertainment.
"Hong Kong Film Industry Officially Enters the Two-Way Battle"
Oriental Daily, which is not a big deal of excitement, directly gave such a headline in the latest issue of the newspaper.
This officially marks that Hong Kong films have officially entered the era of alliance formed by Golden Harvest and Oriental Film Company, and jointly dominated by Chen Qiming's Pacific Entertainment.
