Rebirth of the Tech Madman

Chapter 418: Plan to monopolize the Hong Kong Cinema Line

On the stage, Tang Huan said softly, "Don't completely lose your gentle oriental style", and got an impatient reply from Deng Lijun, "In my old profession, I am definitely better than you. Professional" and was beaten.

Smiling and shook his head, Tang Huan went straight back to the stage, said hello to the others, and then walked to the VIP passage.

Suddenly, a voice came from behind, "Mr. Tang, it is not easy to see you alone now."

Tang Huan turned his head and saw that it was Fang Yihua who came over quickly. He stopped and waited while saying, "It may be because of the busyness recently. However, if Ms. Fang has something to do, she should be able to be at DreamWorks. Solve it."

Fang Yihua, who murmured "Do you know how difficult Hu Yinmeng is", knowing that Tang Huan's time is precious, so he opened the door to explain his intentions, "For some things, it is more convenient to talk to Mr. Tang directly. Shaw Cinemas is willing to cooperate in all aspects of the DreamWorks Cinemas."

"Ms. Fang, let's go to the lounge over there to talk." Tang Huan walked in front again, thinking in his heart, "It seems that Run Run Run, who is in his 70s, is indeed old and lacking energy. He is a TVB. It’s enough for him to be busy, and to compete with the possible future of the DreamWorks Cinemas line, he has more than enough heart but not enough energy, and this is the kind of favor that is sent to the door."

After sitting down, Tang Huan asked musingly, "Apart from self-operated theaters, the relationship between DreamWorks cinemas is alliance and franchise. Which way of cooperation does Ms. Fang choose?"

"Of course it is the same as the Anle Theater, united, otherwise there will be no chance for the first-round movie to be released." Fang Yihua laughed.

The DreamWorks Cinema is operated as a subsidiary of DreamWorks, which is relatively strong.

With Jiang Zhiqiang's integration into the DreamWorks power system, the previous guard in the hearts of the Jiang brothers has been completely eliminated, and the Anle Theater, which belongs to the Jiang family, has sincerely joined the DreamWorks Theater. And to maintain its brand and characteristics, focusing on the operation of literary and western films.

Even Jiang Zhiwen was entrusted with an important task to be responsible for the operation of the DreamWorks cinema circuit.

Actually. This change can be regarded as the best choice under the pressure of the market situation.

The Xiangjiang First Consortium's involvement in the theater chain must be completely crushed in terms of capital. Many cinemas with average strength are almost foreseeable. This is the cruelty of competition in shopping malls.

Jiang Zhiqiang knew that the only thing missing in the DreamWorks Cinemas line might be the ready-made industry experience, so he urged his brother Zhiwen Changjiang to seize this opportunity quickly so that he could enjoy the cool under the big tree.

As Jiang Zhiqiang expected, Tang Huan was very grand. Not only did he double the preferential treatment for the first Anle Cinema, he also included Jiang Zhiwen into the ranks of DreamWorks executives.

It has to be said that Tang Huan's courage not only stems from his own strong capital, but also benefits from his age of less than 30 years old.

As for Shaw, who is well versed in the rules of the game in shopping malls, he decisively pursued advantages and avoided disadvantages and adopted a cooperative attitude. It may not be so "weak".

"I feel your sincerity, what do you hope to get from me?" As Tang Huan is now, speaking so bluntly. Not only is there no sense of condescending disobedience, on the contrary, it reveals honesty to business partners.

"Fang Shiyu has been released so hot in Xiangjiang. With the channels controlled by Mr. Tang, it will definitely advance to Hollywood." Fang Yihua smiled and said more implicitly.

Tang Huan pondered for a moment, and said that as expected, this piece of fat in Hollywood is too tempting. Not only Zou Wenhuai has been trying all kinds of things, but Shaw also never forgets, perhaps this is also the two worthy of being called It's the movie tycoon's sake.

"If Mr. Tang is willing, Shaw Cinemas will be happy to be acquired by DreamWorks Cinemas." Fang Yihua continued to add bargaining chips, and then added: "But it must be acquired as a whole. And DreamWorks Cinemas cannot be used to screen Shaw's movies. There is any discrimination."

"I intend to buy, but I am worried that Uncle Liu will take a break. I will completely let go of the theater stalls." Tang Huan slapped haha.

Of course, he can buy Shaw Cinemas just like Pan Disheng in the original time and space. But Run Run Shaw can really worry about it.

But the problem is that in Tang Huan's eyes, Shaw's influence in the film industry is still quite useful. If he were to retreat so simply, it would be a waste of resources.

Fang Yihua did not try to figure out the meaning of Tang Huan’s words, so he did not rush to speak up, but listened to the other party continuing to say: "It is a good thing for Chinese-language movies to enter Hollywood. It's not that foolish."

Tang Huan looked at Fang Yihua with a smile, "Have Ms. Fang ever counted. In the past two years, how many Shaw Brothers movies have sold over 5 million at the box office in Hong Kong? And the newly established New Art City, this year? The two films "Best Partner" and "Brothers Difficult" have exceeded 10 million, especially the former, which is more than 26 million. Even DreamWorks’ satellite company Yongjia Pictures has a "Beware" with a box office of over 10 million. tiny hand"."

Fang Yihua was quite embarrassed and speechless when Tang Huan relentlessly pointed out the decline of Shaw Brothers' film production level.

Run Run Shaw may not have much preference for film art. He operates completely in accordance with the thinking of a businessman, as long as he makes money.

In the original time and space, the TV series "Shanghai Beach" was even edited into the upper and lower movies to be shown on the Shaw Theater. As a result, the first one flicked away more than 1 million box office from the audience, while the second one fell directly to 40. More than ten thousand box office.

It can be said that Run Run Shaw hardly gave up any opportunity to extract surplus value. However, in this way, it also invisibly made my path in the field of film narrower and narrower.

The box office of the current movie is about explosive power. A crit, with a box office of more than 10 million, is more cost-effective than having to work **** a few movies, but this requires a keen grasp of the market, and the old Shaw Brothers can’t keep up with the situation. .

"It is estimated that it is difficult for Americans to pay to watch Chinese-language movies. It is difficult to follow the literary route. After all, people are in a culturally strong side, so they can only rely on novelty to win their attention. Special kung fu movies like "Fang Shiyu" are based on this. As the starting point."

Tang Huan said leisurely: "I am optimistic that the two will cooperate. But there are still many necessary preparations. Ms. Fang might as well go back and consider it carefully."

Fang Yihua, who was fired by Tang Huan, had just walked out of the lounge. He saw He Guanchang standing outside. After a moment of flickering in her heart, she greeted faintly. Then he left.

From the struggle for power within the Shaw Brothers to the tit-for-tat confrontation between Jiahe and Shaw Brothers, the grievances between the two sides have been over ten years.

Therefore, He Guanchang didn't care about Fang Yihua's indifference, just glanced at the back of the other side thoughtfully, but it was too late to deliberate. Hurry up and walked into the lounge.

"It's such a coincidence, Mr. He arrived just as soon as Ms. Fang left forefoot." Tang Huan joked without hesitation.

"It's a coincidence." He Guanchang laughed dryly, "Maybe, our purpose of looking for Mr. Tang is similar."

"I would like to hear the details." Tang Huan nodded slightly.

"Jiahe has been developing in Hollywood for some years. To be honest, there are gains and losses, mixed good and bad, but Mr. Tang is majestic and heroic. It is really admirable to run a world in Hollywood while talking and laughing. However, the Chinese are in Hollywood after all. Being alone and lonely, Jiahe intends to join hands with Mr. Tang. I don’t know what Mr. Tang wants?"

Compared to Fang Yihua's before, it was almost flattering. He Guanchang showed more confidence, which is not a true contrast of the current development prospects of Shaw Brothers and Jiahe.

However, Tang Huan must suppress Jiahe's self-righteousness. Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang, who are in their 50s, are in the golden stage of their career development. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are ambitious and rebellious.

"My Lianmei and MGM are local residents in Hollywood. They can develop smoothly without assistance from outsiders. I don't know if Mr. He has ever asked if the summer box office performance in the United States this year, but my two companies are the best and far ahead. "Tang Huan said lightly.

Upon hearing this. He Guanchang immediately understood that Tang Huan didn't like Jiahe who wanted to ask for help. And holding a shelf to do pie.

The same is true of the facts, as He Guanchang said "hand in hand". Based on the premise of taking advantage of Tang Huan first and using his Hollywood resources, how can there be equal capital?

After murmured "What a bully" in his heart, He Guanchang immediately laughed and said: "Of course I have heard of it, so in Hollywood, Jiahe willingly looks at Mr. Tang as the leader. Mr. Tang is always more caring than the previous Warner 20th Century Fox. No."

Seeing that He Guanchang showed the consciousness of being a younger brother, Tang Huan nodded slightly in satisfaction, and at the same time secretly laughed. It seems that Jiahe has suffered a lot in the process of cooperating with the old Hollywood dough sticks, otherwise He Guanchang will not speak. There was a sense of helplessness and complaints.

"In business, I can share Hollywood resources with Jiahe, but what about the corresponding remuneration?" Tang Huan and Yan Yue asked.

"DreamWorks has always been striving for the human resources of Shaw Brothers and tvb. In fact, Jiahe is not bad in this regard." He Guanchang, who had been prepared for a long time, offered an exchange.

"Not bad, but not enough." Tang Huan said unceremoniously.

He Guanchang, who was unsure of Tang Huan's plan, dared to make an offer, so he asked with a wry smile, "Then what does Mr. Tang want Jiahe to do?"

"Mr. He doesn't know what the DreamWorks Cinemas line is being formed? Do you hope that in the future, the opponents of the Golden Princess Cinemas of the Jiahe Cinemas will add a DreamWorks Cinemas line in addition to the Golden Princess Cinemas of the Shaw Cinemas? "Tang Huan laughed loudly.

"Is Fang Yihua also talking to Mr. Tang about the theater cooperation?" He Guanchang tentatively asked.

"Yes." Tang Huan said frankly, "The atmosphere of our discussions is very harmonious."

He Guanchang said in a joking tone: "If this is the case, if Jiahe also joins the cooperative circle, then the theaters of Xiangjiang will almost be unified."

"What's wrong with this?" Tang Huan's eyes sharpened suddenly. "Take the Lunar New Year archives at the beginning of this year, if the theater can arrange the schedules of "Best Partner" and "Long Master" Be clever, it may not be impossible to make this cake bigger."

The smile on He Guanchang's face froze. He suddenly remembered the tacit understanding between tvb and Media Asia on the prime time. See what Tang Huan meant, he wanted to carry forward this method to the film field.

If you have to say anything different, it is that the former's actions cover up, while the latter directly assumes a monopoly posture.

But to reach such a level, strong leadership is inevitably required. In other words, it is necessary to rank the eldest brother and the second younger brother.

Jiahe has already chosen to be Tang Huan's attendant in Hollywood, so he can't end up in such a field in the base camp of Xiangjiang. How can Jiahe in the midst of the day compare to the Shaw Brothers in the west.

He Guanchang's thoughts turned sharply, and he couldn't help but feel big for a while.

"Presumably Mr. He already understands what I mean, so it's better to go back and discuss with Mr. Zou." Tang Huan stood up first, "Today is the Dragon Boat Festival, so don't worry about these mundane things."

He Guanchang agreed with a smile, hurriedly left, and hurriedly went to Zou Wenhuai, he did not have the capital to enjoy leisurely leisure like Tang Huan.

...

After hearing the content of the talks by He Guanchang, Zou Wenhuai couldn't help taking a breath, "Tang Huan's ambition is so big, Xiangjiang's movie history is not short, but no one has ever been able to unify the local theater. "

"It may not be that no one can do this step. It's just that the benefits of the previous piece are not worthy of the big consortium. You must know that the current Hollywood companies have basically not started in the 1950s and 1960s. He fell into the hands of a consortium of large enterprises? And Tang Huan, a billionaire, obviously wants to bring this model into Xiangjiang, but the capacity here is limited and only enough for a predator to cruise." I have already thought about it on the road. He Guanchang, who was a while ago, sighed.

"Tang Huan is now in high spirits~www.wuxiahere.com~ Let's observe for a while before we talk about it, otherwise it's too passive." Zou Wenhuai, who was unwilling to be a younger brother in Xiangjiang, finally decided to say.

...

Compared with He Guanchang's Yiye Zhiqiu, Fang Yihua, who is also the spokesperson, has no such vision.

After reporting to Run Run Shaw, she asked suspiciously: "Tang Huan said, "I'm afraid you will take your time off and let go of the theater stall. What do you mean?"

"Tang Huan, this young man wants to monopolize the Xiangjiang Cinemas, and plans to take me into the water." Run Run Shaw laughed, "It seems that I am still very useful in his eyes."

After Fang Yihua was surprised for a while, he then thought, Tang Huan is so wealthy and powerful, and it is normal to have such ambitions, "Then what shall we do?"

"It's okay to have this cooperation tone. Now you can concentrate on Miss Xiangjiang's campaign." Run Run Run took a picture of the roster of the beauties. To be continued
