Chapter 171: The Man Who Pulls the Wind

"Eight billion yen is actually not expensive, Japan's economic bubble burst, Takeo Kanno failed to invest in real estate, and there is still no hope of recovery for four years, and he was forced to agree to sell. ”

Listening to Harumi Harumi's tone, it seems that she has picked up a big bargain.

There is little hope that Japan will recover from the economic bubble, and Su Changqing has not seen it after 30 years, so it would be good to keep it like this.

Since the end of the 70s, film and drama have been greatly affected by the popularity of television, and various entertainment clubs and offices have changed their business types.

I finally survived until the nineties, I thought that the light was in sight, but I didn't expect the economic bubble to follow, and Takeo Kanno was hit hard for four years, and he was also a little discouraged.

However, a film and television company like Kanno Performing Arts, which is not big or small but has 8 billion yen, is also very difficult to sell in such a downturn, and several major Japanese television stations have monopolized the production of all kinds of TV programs, and the film industry, like Hong Kong, is facing a big market decline.

On March 6 this year, Su Changqing's birthday, "Moving Labyrinth" started filming, and it was very coincidental that Wu Whale's "Kung Fu Kid Breaking Love" was also released on the same day, and the final box office was 740,000, which once hit Master Wu's enthusiasm.

In fact, the box office of Hong Kong movies has been miserable in recent years, and newcomers like Wu Jing have passed by wiping their faces, and some popular movie stars are really ugly.

For example, Wu Qianlian, who became popular in one fell swoop with "Heavenly Love", and Andy Lau drove a motorcycle at midnight almost became one of the classic pictures of Hong Kong films, and has been cooperating with big names in the past few years, playing the little dragon girl, and even starring in Ang Lee's "Eating Men and Women", and now that the market is sluggish, she has actually started filming a drama called "Horror Chicken", playing a pheasant who wandered from the mainland to Hong Kong and sold himself to kill people, which is really terrifying.

The box office is even more terrifying, only 400,000.

The sense of smell of capital is the most sensitive, and investors are reluctant to take over the market at this time.

However, a man like Su Changqing is as bright and outstanding as a firefly in the dark, no matter where he is, and when others fall or quit one after another, it is a good time for him to open up.

The box office income of "Taiping" is very high, with more than 11 million US dollars in North America, and more than 70 million yuan in China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Japan and South Korea combined.

Harumi Harumi Hawata said that Kanno Performing Arts had a full set of film and television production equipment, most of which were updated around '92, and all assets, including a small four-story building, were traded, and the fixed assets alone amounted to nearly 4 billion yen.

In addition, the Arts Club has been operating normally, and there are still some current accounts, and the follow-up liquidity will not be deliberately withdrawn.

In short, it will be sold as it is, and it will not be sold as an empty shell.

With Su Changqing's ambition, it is a matter of time before he goes out, and it may not be possible to save much money by rebuilding a similar entertainment club, so there is no need to hesitate.

"Then please further negotiate with Kanno to make a register of fixed and liquid assets, and at the same time, you have to investigate whether there are any unresolved legal issues in the past. ”

Harumi Harumi Harumi Hachiman felt a sense of accomplishment: "No problem, I'll take care of it." ”

It's a lot of work, and two of SiD's employees are also working in Japan with the release of "Moving Labyrinth", so they can also go over to help Harumi when they are about the same.

Some professional issues still have to be handled by a law firm, and their own investigation is usually superficial, especially the hidden debts, and professional issues must be handled professionally.

In addition, Harumi Yawata went to Ken Takakura's office, only to learn that he had gone to Brazil and would not be back until two days, and had already made an appointment to meet.

"I spoke to my senior on the phone, and I could tell that he was still interested in your invitation, but I had to read the story outline to make a decision. ”

It's good to be interested, if you are not satisfied with this story, you can change it, and you can tailor it according to the requirements, anyway, Su Changqing has a story.

"I have left your phone number to my seniors, maybe I don't know if I will contact you in a few days, but when the time comes, we must remember to thank him for the gifts, and we must thank you for the first two or three calls or meetings, this is our habit. ”

This is no problem, Su Changqing really likes this watch and has already put it on.

"In addition, try to eat as little kimchi as possible, because it has a high nitrite content, and it is said that Korea has the highest incidence of stomach cancer in the world, but they don't seem to have anything else to eat except miso soup and kimchi. ”

"Okay, I'll pay attention, a Korean friend told me that I had never heard that eating kimchi can cause stomach cancer, and that was someone who made up lies to maliciously attack traditional Korean culture. ”

"Don't listen to them, people who open their eyes and speak nonsense. ”

However, the box office will not open its eyes and tell nonsense, "Moving Labyrinth" sold more than 800 million won on the premiere day, equivalent to more than 4 million yuan, which is slightly inferior to "Taiping", but it is better than expected.

The theme of "Taiping" is more likely to resonate with national pathos, while the anti-war ideology revealed in "Moving Labyrinth" is more special here than in Japan.

Japan is a defeated country, its armed forces have been castrated, and it is a bit of a vain attempt to be independent in secretly rubbing against the United States.

South Korea is a country with complete armed forces, but it took the initiative to hand over the command to the US military, and paid a high amount of garrison fees every year to beg people not to withdraw.

Ximen Xiong also said that the publisher's enthusiasm for "Moving Labyrinth" this time is far less than that of "Taiping": "These guys are quite unproductive in their bones, and they want to make money but are afraid of getting into trouble." ”

The weaker you are, the better at tough posture, I'm afraid that the strength of the stick is practiced in this way, and if you are anxious, you will chop off your fingers, and ask if you are afraid?

South Korea's distribution level is still not comparable with Japan, the media is not so developed, after all, it is only an Asian dragon, and the publicity is very limited, which is about the same level as the immature domestic theaters.

Because there was nothing to do, after the premiere publicity, Su Changqing took Wu Jing and Wang Baoqiang to visit Seoul, he has a business with South Korea and is very familiar with this place.

However, there is really nothing to see, Seoul Tower is worse than Tokyo Tower, Gyeongbokgung Palace is too small, Caoxi Temple claims to be the center of Zen Buddhism, and Wang Baoqiang is provoked: "Our Shaolin is the ancestral court of Zen Buddhism, why do you dare to use the four words of Zen center?!"

It is said that the prince of Silla, Kim Joo Jue, went to Jiuhua Mountain during the Tang Dynasty and made a grand wish that "all living beings will be exhausted, the proof of Bodhi, the hell will not be empty, and the vow will not become a Buddha", and finally became the king of Jizo Bodhisattva.

This is a bit ruthless, the eight great bodhisattvas of Buddhism, none of them have been topped by the Chinese until now.

After the release of the film, South Korea's reports were tepid and restrained, praising the shooting level, but basically avoiding mentioning the ideological connotation.

However, the box office results have been rising, and on the third day of Sunday, it has reached more than 5 million yuan.

If the back-end force can be maintained, then the Korean box office may also surpass "Taiping".

Su Changqing didn't go to the theater, the reaction of ordinary audiences should be similar, it is unlikely to be very different from the Japanese, and the results have already explained the problem, the audience likes it.

According to a television news report, someone spray-painted a pattern on the exterior wall of the US military garrison in South Korea, much like a moving maze floor plan, with the words "Fuck off!" written in Korean on the side: "Fuck off!"

Without authorization, T-shirts with the theme of "Moving Maze" have appeared on the market.

The moving maze was quickly symbolized, and the illustration resonated strongly with the audience.

Someone recreated it, integrating the labyrinth plane with the big Korean flag, and the Tai Chi gossip yin and yang fish actually fit tightly and printed on the pullover, and Su Changqing bought one as a souvenir.

On the third day after arriving in South Korea, Harumi Harumi Hachiman called again, and she met with Ken Takakura: "My predecessor likes this role very much, and I have agreed to play it!"
