Director’s Legend

From the golden age of Hong Kong movies, Golden Harvest has witnessed an era, and Zou Wenhuai led an era, which is an indelible legend of Chinese films. From the first Chinese superstar Bruce Lee to the current Chinese superstar Cheng Long, Golden Harvest has a very high status in the history of Chinese films.

Unfortunately, due to the financial crisis in 1997, Hong Kong Island's economy has never recovered to its peak. The film industry is declining day by day. Zou Daheng is over seventy years old and is no longer able to make waves. He sold the company's shares three times, and his intention to retire is clear.

"Xiao Shao, I thought many people would come to take over Jiahe, but I didn't expect you to be so earnest. Can you tell me why you want Jiahe?" Daheng Zou leaned on the sofa like a kind old man, Casual chat.

Li Xiuxiu had already explained the purpose before, and also gave a plan for Jiahe's future, so Daheng Zou's questioning seemed unnecessary. But Shao Shuaijun didn't think that this was a question that didn't need to be answered.

After thinking for a while, Shao Shuaijun said: "I have an indescribable love for movies. Fortunately, I have had many opportunities this year and have made several favorite movies. There have been moments of high spirits and shocks. , To tell you the truth, I was on the set of "Painted Skin" before, and I was involved in a fight, and my head was smashed."

Having said that, Shao Shuaijun laughed at himself.

Daheng Zou said cheerfully: "I've heard that when the crew grows, it's inevitable that there will be some problems. When we were young, on the set, there were people who beat the director with knives. Even now, fights in the entertainment circle are inevitable. Some people Where there are rivers and lakes."

"Yeah, I was pretty useless when I thought about it at the time. Later, I used the excuse to fire a few leaders, and Gao Linbao was also fired by Media Asia. But I didn't vent my anger. Instead, I felt that I was too small. After all, I was still young. It’s a little bit, firstly, I have no experience, and secondly, I can’t control the scene.”

Shao Shuaijun took a sip of tea: "Everyone says that directors are boiled. I feel it now. Many problems will come one after another. A good director can make a pot of delicious soup out of these problems, and a bad director can make a pot of delicious soup." It can only be boiled into a pot of poison. I used to walk with my head down and could not see the obstacles around me. Now I have finally learned to look up and see the road. I know that if I want to run fast, I need a sharp knife to cut through thorns. Therefore, a A real director needs to have a beautiful spatula to make soup, which is internal skill, and a close-fitting saber to open the way, which is external skill.”

"This metaphor of internal strength and external strength is very appropriate."

"I have experienced some things now. I can hold the spatula firmly, but the knife is not fast enough."

Zou Daheng smiled at his daughter and said, "Xiao Shao is here to sharpen his knife."

Turning his head again, he said to Shao Shuaijun, "Tell me specifically how to sharpen the knife?"

"The idea is not very mature, please judge Mr. Zou. I have such a long-term plan to build a one-stop film industry chain in China with film as the core, and reduce the constraints of upstream and downstream.

The upstream plan is to focus on the Ascendant Commander as the main body. In the future, it may be planned separately and focus on film investment. Taking Shao Shuaijun's studio as the shell, it goes deep into film production and extends to the artist's agency contract. The peripheral partners will exchange shares with each other and kidnap interests. The current partners include Dengtian Entertainment and Huayi Brothers.

The downstream planning is to participate in the development of theaters and the distribution of movies. At present, domestic theaters are basically in the hands of state-owned enterprises, and private capital is weak. However, we currently have plans to cooperate with Wanda Group to develop Wanda Cinemas. This is the first step, and the second step is to acquire shares of Golden Harvest, and use Golden Harvest's overseas market influence to develop our film distribution qualifications.

In fact, my layout of domestic movies is far more than that. I also have a company in the United States, and I am running a novel, a best-selling novel in North America. At present, relying on this novel, I have successfully raised 100 million US dollars to feed back the layout of mainland movies. In the future, once Golden Harvest is acquired, films will be produced in North America. I am confident that my future films will be sold well in North America. For example, this "Twilight" novel is adapted into a film. We have done a survey, and American teenagers 90 % have chosen that once the filming starts, they will go to the cinema to watch it.

What I am most looking forward to is to undertake the shift of the focus of Hollywood film production.

Hollywood is prosperous on the surface, but in fact the cost of making a movie is also exaggerated. It is inevitable to transfer more film industries to emerging countries. And I am willing to serve as a bridge for transfer and guide them in the direction of transfer! "

Shao Shuaijun smiled confidently. In the past, he naively wanted to be a pure director, but the reality slapped him.

It is purely based on capital.

Before rebirth, Galloping Horse acquired the digital field, allowing him to see the way of capital rise. Affected by changes in the global economic situation, Hollywood has also had to reduce costs. At this time, it is the opportunity for the rise of Chinese films. More film companies have come to China, and more special effects companies have moved to China. Whoever can catch this trend will be the big winner in the future.

In front of Zou Daheng, a film legend, Shao Shuaijun poured out his heart with confidence.

Zou Daheng is old and no longer has the heart to strive for success, but he is still a shaky existence in the stomping movie circle.

To impress him, only sincerity.

Shao Shuaijun expressed his heartfelt sincerity.

"Young people are terrifying."

Daheng Zou stood up, and staggered off the sofa: "I'm old, I'm old, Chong Heng, you and Xiao Shao and Li can talk about the price of shares, and I'll go upstairs to rest for a while."

Zou Daheng agreed to sell the shares, and everything was easy. In the afternoon of the same day, the anti-dumping and anti-dumping companies reached a preliminary agreement. Zou Daheng and Zou Chongheng were willing to sell all the shares of Golden Harvest Company at the market price, 24.78% of the shares. According to the market price, it was about 200 million Hong Kong dollars.

For the specific share transfer, there are still many details to be discussed, and it will not be resolved in a short time. After all, Golden Harvest is a listed company, and the equity is very complicated. The transfer needs the support of more people. Daheng Zou made a promise on this point, as long as he wanted to sell, no one would dare to stop him.

And Shao Shuaijun also has to decide how the capital will acquire Golden Harvest shares. It may be as a Twilight company, or it may register an offshore company to make the acquisition.

Before the matter is completed, both parties must keep it secret.

After declining the banquet, Shao Shuaijun and Li Xiuxiu returned to the hotel where they were staying.

Yang Ying was already waiting in the hotel lobby, accompanied by her grandmother and grandfather. After confirming the true identities of Shao Shuaijun and Li Xiuxiu, the elderly, on behalf of Yang Ying's parents, agreed to sign with Shao Shuaijun's studio. However, now Yang Ying is a model of talent-bang, and she is still hosting Jade Channel's "Disneyland viva!" club-disney! "programme.

Shao Shuaijun contacted Lin Feizhong from Media Asia, told him that he had a crush on a little girl, and asked him to help with the contract termination procedures. As the local snake in Hong Kong, Lin Feizhong readily agreed. Although he had a rough time, Shao Shuaijun had to admit that if he made good use of Media Asia, he had a huge network of contacts and relationships.

However, when Media Asia learned that Shao Shuaijun intercepted Hu and bought Jiahe, he would probably jump out of anger.

You can still use it while riding, just take advantage of it. Shao Shuaijun hung up the phone in a good mood.
