Which is more important, whether it is Shao Yifu or Fang Yihua, they have a clear measure in their hearts.

"Mr. Qiao, you may have forgotten, in addition to leasing and selling, we also have a third option, the Shaw Brothers Company is the family property of the Shaw family, and some of our family members can inherit the cinema chain. Fang Yihua said with a smile.

Fool you!

Qiao Feng didn't say it, but he sneered in his heart.Fang Yihua is indeed right about one thing, if it is simply a Shaw Brothers Cinema Line, it is definitely a sure way to make a profit, or at this time, the Hong Kong cinema line has not lost money, that is, Jiang Zhiqiang and his family's Anle Cinema Line just bought Western films and put Western films to make money, and they made a lot of war movies back then, and they edited it casually and made a miserable war together, and they could sell tens of millions of box office, and the top few who got the annual box office of the year knew how to make money by opening a theater.

However, although the cinema line makes money, it also needs someone to inherit it, Fang Yihua said that some people in the Shaw family inherit the cinema line, it's okay to deceive others, but it's also a dream to deceive Qiao Feng.

The Shao family does not seem to have the habit of inheriting their father's business, starting from the Shao Yifu brothers.Their father Shao Yuxuan was the owner of the famous Jintaichang Pigment Company in old Shanghai, operating a variety of businesses such as dyeing and finance.

When Shao Yifu was still in middle school, the owner of the Shanghai Theater's "Laughing Stage" was unable to repay his debts, so he "cut off" the "Laughing Stage", so Shao Yuxuan sent his eldest son, Shao Zuyweng, who was a lawyer, to take over the theater.

Later, the Shao family fell into the middle of the road, and there was only one house and a theater in the "Laughing Stage" in all the family businesses. The Shaw brothers resolutely sold their house, moved their family into the "Laughing Stage", and all gave up their father's paint business to devote themselves to the entertainment industry.

Shao Zuiweng himself is a producer and director, his wife Chen Yumei starring, the second Shao Chuen is the screenwriter, the third Shao Shanke is in charge of distribution, and Shao Yifu, who has just graduated from middle school, is looking for a "buddy" position on the set. The eldest brother Shao drunken Weng went from buying and selling movies to showing movies, and later became unique and established "Tianyi Film Company" and began to make movies by himself. The Shaw brothers decided to buy a movie camera, and in 1924 they produced the first feature film in Chinese history, "Standing on the Ground to Become a Buddha", which was originally a drama written and directed by Shao Zuiweng.

The Shaw Brothers are all super powerful characters, and the development of films from Shanghai was surrounded and suppressed by peers, and several brothers went to Singapore to develop, and then after developing a world in Singapore, they expanded to the entire South Seas.

Before winning the No. 1 giant in Hong Kong, Shaw Brothers was already the largest film manufacturer and cinema distributor in Nanyang.

Shaw Brothers films are almost a brief history of the development of Chinese films, and at the beginning, the so-called Oriental Hollywood did not refer to Hong Kong films, but only to Shaw Brothers Film Company.

But it is such the largest film kingdom in Southeast Asia, but no one in the Shao family wants to inherit it.

In particular, Hong Kong Shaw Brothers Company, this company is the industry of Shaw Yifu, and originally also had shares of the third Shaw Renmei, because the Hong Kong Shaw Brothers Company was originally the third Shaw Renmei, the sixth Shaw Yifu partnership, and the Shaw Brothers in Singapore, Shaw Brothers and Sons Company is not the same thing.

At that time, because he was dissatisfied with the second brother's actions, Shao Yifu wanted to take over the production business to stabilize the film source, and the brothers finally decided to part ways in business. In 1958, Shaw Yifu and Shaw Renmei established "Shaw Brothers (Hong Kong) Limited", which was different from the elder brother's "Shaw Brothers and Sons". Since then, "Shaw Brothers and Sons" have only operated cinemas and film distribution, while "Hong Kong Shaw Brothers" has been in charge of production.

Then the third Shao Renmei is not as energetic as Shao Yifu, and when he gets older, he will delegate power, basically not much in charge, and most of the shares will be transferred to Shao Yifu, until now Shao Renmei has been sick for a long time, and time is running out, and Shaw Company is Shao Yifu alone.

Therefore, when it comes to inheritance, it can only be inherited by Shao Yifu's children, but Shao Yifu's children have a bad relationship with Shao Yifu, and they have no intention of inheriting entertainment careers such as movies and television.

As I said before, the people of the Shao family don't seem to have the habit of inheriting their father's business.

Shaw Yifu and his first wife have two sons and two daughters, and the children have been raised by his brother in Singapore since they were young, and the relationship is not very close, and later the two sons joined the board of directors of the Shaw Brothers to help their father with his career. It was not until 1981 that the eldest son, Shao Weiming, was dissatisfied with Fong Yihua's entry into Shaw Brothers to take power, so he and his second son withdrew from the board of directors and moved to Singapore, and the father and son broke off relations for 20 years. The Cold War lasted until 2006, when Shao Yifu won the "Lifetime Achievement Award" at the Asia-Pacific Film Festival.

Shao Yifu, Fang Yihua naturally didn't know that the relationship between father and son would be severed for so long, but they knew very well in their hearts that no one would inherit Shao Yifu's son and daughter, whether it was Shaw Brothers or wireless.

Of course, Fang Yihua must not want them to inherit it, if they inherit, how can Fang Yihua still be her wireless Miss Fang.

For the Shaw Brothers company, Fang Yihua wanted to give up for the film for a long time, otherwise he would not have persuaded Shao Yifu to participate in the establishment of wireless, and in 80 years, after the Li family's accident, he directly moved into wireless and became a big boss.

Qiao Feng knows all about these things, so he naturally understands that what Fang Yihua said about the Shao family having children and grandchildren can inherit the theater or something is nonsense.

Another reason for selling and leasing the cinema chain is that if the cinema line is still there, Shaw Brothers will inevitably invest in filming, otherwise the cinema will lose money and make money if it is placed there, and then because it is going to make a film, the Shaw Brothers film production business will not be able to stop, so that many old people will not be able to cut it, and then they will have to maintain a large investment.

And once the theater is shot, then the matter is simple, without the theater, the film is not easy to be released, it is not easy to make money, naturally there is a buffer period of one or two years, when those employees who have not been laid off find that there is no future in Shaw Brothers, there is no drama to film, different Shaw Brothers will rush out of the house, so that Shaw Brothers Film Company basically does not have to pay too much price to achieve the purpose of closing down.

"Mr. Shao, the cinema chain is handed over to me, I think this deal is the best choice for me, for you, and for us."
