Chapter 177: Resource Replacement
Orange Sky Entertainment is definitely one of the largest companies in China Entertainment now, they not only have film productions, but also music companies, as well as cinema chains on Hong Kong Island and Po Village.
The company's top management has a very clear vision of the future strategy.
Although the mainland co-production system on Hong Kong Island has not yet come out, they have begun to invest in mainland films, TV dramas, and artists.
After Mei Ting was abandoned by Ye Dashao, they quickly contacted and incorporated him into the company.
Li Shengyao found someone to pass the word and expressed his cooperation, and Orange Sky quickly replied.
On the third day after he arrived at Hengdian, Zhu Hong, the artist supervisor of Orange Sky Entertainment Yanjing Branch, led Meiting to Hengdian in person.
Zhu Hong is in his thirties, wears a pair of glasses, looks quite gentle, speaks clearly, and looks like a person who has seen a big scene.
Mei Ting is Li Shengyao's impression, with big eyes, dark circles, and he is stunned when he doesn't speak.
She is really suitable for the heroine of "The Sun of the Lord".
But in reality, she is more beautiful than in the camera, and her face is smaller.
Li Shengyao invited the two of them to sit down, and after a few words of greeting, he directly said his previous cooperation.
"The drama cooperated by Fenghua Film and Television Company and TVB, I think Mei Ting is very suitable, I hope she can act."
At this time, the actors are still very happy to go to Hong Kong Island for development.
Especially the gorgeous dramas, maybe they can be sold in Southeast Asia.
Mei Ting was naturally more willing, which was why she came here in person.
Zhu Hong knew that Li Shengyao still had something to say, it was just "hope", not "certainty", that is, he wanted Orange Sky to give some sincerity.
After all, people don't owe you anything, so why should they give you resources?
Li Shengyao let out his words, whether it is to give money or people, there must be many actresses who are willing.
"Director Li, thank you for your attention, we are very willing to cooperate with you."
He paused, "Our best thing is the film production industry, and there is also our Orange Sky film shooting base on Hong Kong Island......"
Li Shengyao listened with a smile and did not answer.
Orange Sky's so-called film production is actually Golden Harvest's film shooting base, and Orange Sky is now the second largest shareholder of Golden Harvest and has certain rights, but it cannot be regarded as their industry.
And after Cheng Long left Hollywood, Golden Harvest film production gradually failed.
Orange Sky's current film business on Hong Kong Island is mainly investment-based, and there are very few self-productions.
Li Shengyao didn't have any ideas about Orange Sky's film and television base, and he didn't want to get involved in Orange Sky's poor movies.
Now there are very few Hong Kong Island movies that can make money, and he can even recite the top ten movies at the box office on Hong Kong Island in 02, and he is sure that there are no movies shot by Orange Sky.
It's not the right time to enter the film industry.
Zhu Hong saw that Li Shengyao was not interested in the Hong Kong Island film production he said, and knew that Li Shengyao could not watch Hong Kong Island movies.
He continued: "We are not only quite successful in film production, but also have some connections in the music market. ”
Li Shengyao smiled and nodded, "Okay." ”
"Dashang Palace" really needs a theme song, an ending song, an interlude, and some beautiful and uplifting pure music.
Li Shengyao remembered the theme tune of "Da Chang Jin" in his previous life, and he could hum it.
However, after careful consideration, he felt that the peninsular style of this song was more obvious, and obviously it could not be used.
Since we want to promote Chinese culture, we should use songs with ancient Chinese rhyme or Chinese bearing.
Orange Sky not only has Golden Harvest shares, but they also have a lot of Ai Hui shares, so many artists in Orange Sky have signed record contracts in Ai Hui.
If you go through Orange Sky and ask people in the music circle to write songs for "Dashang Palace", it is indeed a way.
But it's not enough, he gave a heroine to Mei Ting.
If "The Sun of the Lord" becomes popular, Mei Ting can make seven or eight endorsements no matter what he says, and it is no problem to earn two or three million.
And a few songs are only a lot of money.
Zhu Hong saw that Li Shengyao only said one word, so he kept silent, knowing Li Shengyao's attitude, he still needed them to continue to come up with equal resources.
"We will invest in "Fengyun 2" next, does Director Li want to enter the game?"
"Fengyun 2" invited more stars, but the shooting was not good, mainly because the story was too chaotic and used a lot of special effects, so it's really hard to say whether it can get back to its roots.
Li Shengyao didn't expect this drama to be prepared so quickly.
It seems that investors have a lot of confidence in "Fengyun 1".
If it is changed to "Fengyun 1", he may vote, and "Fengyun 2" will be forgotten.
"No, "Fengyun 1" will only be broadcast in the summer, and it is too early to discuss "Fengyun 2" now."
"Director Li, we watched the finished film, "Fengyun 1" was filmed very well, you relax, "Fengyun 2" will not be bad."
Li Shengyao shook his head and insisted on his opinion.
Zhu Hong saw that Li Shengyao was not optimistic about "Fengyun 2", and felt that Li Shengyao was too cautious.
He thought for a while, and then said: "What about "Flying Knives and See Flying Knives", Director Li, this is a TV series adapted from Gu Long, the male protagonist is Zhang Zhilin, and the female protagonist is Lin Xinru, which is very eye-catching. ”
It's another messy drama, and after a rotation, the TV station is basically reluctant to play an extra second.
Li Shengyao glanced at Zhu Hong.
I have to say that Orange is really rich, and he can still maintain a huge volume by fooling around like this, and he can still hold a circle of artists brought by Wang Jinghua in the back.
They have enough money, and if the investment goes wrong, it will not affect the subsequent development at all.
"What about "Supreme Red Face"? Director Li, are you interested in investing in Supreme Hongyan? ”
Wu Zetian in this drama is the same as the White Lotus, but this drama was quite popular back then.
It should be able to make money.
But he didn't do it for this little money, he followed the TV series, and it would be good to get 500,000 dividends, which didn't mean much to him.
"Mr. Zhu, let me talk about my thoughts, I hope to get a promise from Orange Sky that my first movie will be released in four years at the latest, and all the theaters of the Golden Harvest Cinema Line in the Hong Kong Island area will arrange more than 30% of the films in ten days at least ten days at the popular time."
Zhu Hong was stunned, he didn't expect Li Shengyao to want this.
Although he had watched some of Li Shengyao's interviews and knew that Li Shengyao wanted to enter the film industry, he thought that Li Shengyao was not telling the truth, that is, some scenes.
Now it seems that people are really going to enter the film industry.
The Hong Kong Island film market is not very large, but if the quality of the film is excellent, it is not impossible to make a total box office of one or two million.
Thinking about it three or four years later so early, Zhu Hong admired it a little, but Orange Sky was not the only boss of Golden Harvest.
"Director Li, you wait for me, and in five minutes, I'll give you an answer."
Zhu Hong then took out the phone and left.
Mei Ting's eyes widened, looking at Li Shengyao with puzzlement.
This is the first person in the TV industry in internal entertainment, and he is going to make movies in the future, is he drinking too much?
Mei Ting and Zhang Guorong have acted in movies, and the box office is average.
Her agent often complained to her that Orange Sky's movies on Hong Kong Island were terrible and unproductive, and asked her not to take them.
She felt that making movies was not interesting, and she didn't understand why Li Shengyao insisted on going to the film industry.
At this time, Zhu Hong came back, "Director Li, no problem, within four years, your movie will be released on Hong Kong Island, and we will give you more than 30% of the films in the popular time period in Golden Harvest Cinemas, and only need a minimum of 8% of the distribution fee." ”
"Okay, nice to work with."
Li Shengyao laughed, he got the Shaw Brothers' cinema line in Pocun Malai, and got the cinema chain of Golden Harvest on Hong Kong Island.
When his film is released, he will be able to harvest in two important markets outside the mainland.
It's time to see if you can fight.
These two markets have a good effect, not only to make money, but also to feed back to the mainland and enhance the momentum of the film.
