Chapter 318 Golden Harvest, becomes history (7K chapter, please subscribe~)

   "It exploded, Brother Huan exploded!"

  Fang Jianhui's excited voice came from the phone. Originally, the success of a movie at the midnight show could no longer make Fang Jianhui too excited, but the movie "Ghost Horse Twin Stars" is different.

   The movie "Ghost Horse Twin Stars" is the last battle between black and white images and Golden Harvest.

   If he wins, Golden Harvest will become history in Xiangjiang, and the black and white video will become the number one in Xiangjiang film industry!

   With such a result, Fang Jianhui couldn't help being excited!

  Chu Huan held the phone with a smile on his face, as he thought, but this war was not only about "Ghost and Horse Twin Stars" but also "Double Dragon Going to Sea".

  If "Double Dragon Goes to Sea" is also a box office hit, Golden Harvest's fate is not over yet!

  So Chu Huan asked: "How was the midnight scene of "Double Dragon Going to Sea"?"

  The black-and-white video was naturally watched by the staff at the midnight scene of "Double Dragon Going to Sea".

  Fang Jianhui said embarrassingly: "I have been busy telling you the good news, but there is no news from over there!"

Chu Huan didn't blame Fang Jianhui, just laughed, and then Fang Jianhui said: "Since the midnight show is already sold out, the box office in the future should not be too bad. The company treats guests, and take Xu Guanwen and the others to hold a supper!" "

  Fang Jianhui said: "Okay!"

  After hanging up the phone, Chu Huan said to Miao Kexiu next to him, "You can sleep peacefully!"

   At least half the battle is done.

  The next day, Chu Huan woke up, and after doing a set of boxing in the yard, he returned to the restaurant. At this time, Miao Kexiu was also up. Seeing Chu Huan coming back, he handed the newspaper in his hand to Chu Huan.

   "Brother Huan, you read that the newspapers are talking about the movie "Double Dragon Going to Sea"!"

   "Really?" Chu Huan took the newspaper from Miao Kexiu's hand and read the content on it.

   "Double Dragons Going to Sea--Look at everything!"

Such an eye-catching title made Chu Huan frown slightly, especially when it reported the midnight scene of the movie "Double Dragon Going to Sea", the audience applauded and yelled several times. I also praised how successful the filming was.

  Miao Kexiu said to Chu Huan worriedly: "Brother Huan, it seems that the midnight show of the movie "Double Dragon Going to Sea" was also very successful!"

  The success of "Double Dragon Going to Sea" means that the possibility of Chu Huan wanting to buy Jiahe from Zou Wenhuai's hands is gone, so Miao Kexiu is worried that Chu Huan will be unhappy because of this.

  However, Chu Huan just put the newspaper aside casually, and said with a smile: "Sometimes, the louder you shout, the more confident you are, but it is just a manifestation of your lack of confidence."

This report reports that "Double Dragons to the Sea" is too successful. It is simply the most perfect movie that combines business and art since the opening of Hong Kong. Chu Huan thinks that "Double Dragons to the Seas" may be a good movie. But if the movie was as successful as the newspaper said, Chu Huan didn't think so.

  If something goes wrong, there must be a demon.

  The only possible explanation, of course, is that Golden Harvest paid for this report!

   In future generations, it will be the kind of spending money to buy popular searches.

   Miao Kexiu said in disbelief: "Jiahe probably wouldn't do this, would he?"

  People in this period still have to face.

  Chu Huan smiled: "It's about Jiahe's life and death, why can't they do this?"

  Miao Kexiu stopped talking. People in this era still can't accept this kind of behavior that is obviously bad but insists on bragging about it. Of course, Miao Kexiu's judgment is entirely based on her trust in Chu Huan.

  When Chu Huan came to the black and white video, he confirmed his previous speculation.

   "Double Dragon's midnight scene is not good, and it can be said to be very bad!"

  Fang Jianhui also held a newspaper in his hand, and the content published on it was similar to that of the newspaper that Chu Huan had read before.

   "Tell me about the specific situation!"

  Chu Huan sat there, smiling and preaching.

Fang Jianhui said to Chu Huan: "According to the situation reported by our people, the movie "Double Dragon Going to Sea" is actually a very screwy movie. Golden Harvest definitely wants to make this movie into a commercial blockbuster. So they called Long Gang, Xie Xian, and Deng Guangrong.

But the problem also happened to these three people. Although Longgang made many successful commercial films in the 1950s and 1960s, the fact that this person was able to make a movie like "Twenty Eight Hiroshima" has already shown that This person wants to add more private goods to his movies, and has more pursuits."

Generally speaking, in a commercial film, if too many private goods of the director are added, it means that the director of this film is not willing to be a director of a commercial film, but also wants to be a director of a literary film. To express more things!

  Of course, for a literary film, as a director, you have private goods, which is understandable, but if it is a commercial film, if you still want to contain private goods, then it can only be a four-dimensional movie.

Longgang is like this now. In fact, without the movie "Twenty-Eight Hiroshima", Longgang's director career would have been relatively successful. For example, Wu Baige's "The True Colors of a Hero" is an adaptation of Longgang's movie "Heroes true color".

   In 1972, "Fourteen Heroines" directed by him also won a box office of more than 2.5 million in Xiangjiang.

  But people are afraid of drifting away. If they drift away, they will easily reveal their nature.

   "The other thing is, there are two people, Xie Xian and Deng Guangrong. Xie Xian has already given up the commercial film market in the past few years and made some literary films. Deng Guangrong just came over from Taiwan, and he also made literary films before."

  Before listening to Fang Jianhui's words, Chu Huan knew the reason. A film director who wanted to carry private goods, and two male protagonists of literary films, shot a commercial film that wanted to be a big hit at the box office!

  The movie produced by such a combination is not screwy, what kind of movie is screwy!

Immediately afterwards, Chu Huan knew from Fang Jianhui's description that the situation in the midnight show of "Double Dragon Going to Sea" last night was not what the newspaper said at all. After the movie ended, angry audiences rushed onto the stage. It was a slap to Longgang.

   It can be seen how angry the audience is.

  After having this answer, Chu Huan knew that Jiahe's matter was settled.

  Fang Jianhui couldn't help but said to Chu Huan at this time: "Chairman, should we find a few newspapers to expose what happened in the evening show last night to Golden Harvest?"

  Chu Huan waved his hand and said with a smile: "No, Golden Harvest must have paid the public relations fee. Even if we want to expose, some newspapers can't accept this kind of report. Otherwise, wouldn't they be slapping themselves in the face?"

  Fang Jianhui said worriedly: "But looking at their promotional methods, it will definitely bring some help to the movie's box office. By then, won't it be difficult for us to win Golden Harvest?"

  Chu Huan smiled, "Haven't you heard that the higher you stand, the harder you fall?"

  Fang Jianhui didn't understand what Chu Huan meant, and then Chu Huan whispered a few words to Fang Jianhui. After Fang Jianhui listened, his eyes lit up completely.

  So

  In some newspapers that published afternoon papers, some reports about the movie "Double Dragon Go to Sea" suddenly appeared again. Do you know how those flattering ministers praised the emperor in ancient times?

  In these reports, it can be seen that in these reports, almost all the praises that can be given to the movie are given to the movie "Double Dragon".

  Director Longgang, the most powerful director in Hong Kong, the director's "Double Dragon Going to Sea" is the most successful film that combines business and art. This film will be one of the most successful films in Hong Kong's nearly 100-year film history!

  Actor Xie Xian, one of the best actors in Xiangjiang, has given an epic performance in the movie "Double Dragon Going to Sea". Even Marlon Brando in "The Godfather" would shy away from seeing him!

  Actor Deng Guangrong, the actor with the most successful transformation in Taiwan, even compared with the successful Xie Xian, he is not far behind. From now on, Xiangjiang's commercial film actor deserves to be the number one!

   Such vigorous praise immediately set off a movie-watching wave for this movie. In the afternoon, the movie theaters under Golden Harvest Cinemas flooded into many audiences.

   Golden Harvest!

  Zou Wenhuai, He Guanchang, Long Gang, Xie Xian, and Deng Guangrong sat in Zou Wenhuai's office.

  Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang had complicated expressions, while Long Gang, Xie Xian, and Deng Guangrong had similarly complicated expressions, but amidst the complex expressions were reserved and doubtful.

  If there is no midnight show, they will definitely be very happy with the content they saw today, but with the midnight show, they understand what this movie is like in the hearts of the audience.

  Now there is such a shameless bragging

"Mr. Zou, this incident is over. Although I think my film is actually a success, it's just that those moviegoers in the midnight show don't understand how to appreciate it, but this film is the most successful in Xiangjiang's 100-year film history. The movie is still a bit over!"

  Longgang preached somewhat reservedly.

  Looking at the content in the newspaper, Long Gang felt inexplicably ashamed.

  Zou Wenhuai restrained his emotions, and just glanced at Longgang indifferently. If killing people is not against the law, Zou Wenhuai can't wait to shoot Longgang down at this time.

  What was the midnight show yesterday like? Don't you have any clues in your heart?

   He also said that the audience didn't understand how to appreciate it. I invested nearly two million Hong Kong dollars, so you made me such a movie?

   Are you ashamed to say that the audience doesn't appreciate it?

  Zou Wenhuai became the first director in the history of Hong Kong film to be cheated by a director who burns the soul of a literary film in his heart!

The company spent money to buy reports, and they still received them, but it turned out that you were not ashamed to buy reports for yourself. You can buy them as soon as you buy them. Can you be careful and make sure that the content of each newspaper is different? Now all the newspapers are full of the same articles.

   Is this because the movie didn't die fast enough?

At this time, both Zou Wenhuai and Long Gang misunderstood. Zou Wenhuai believed that the articles in the newspaper at noon today were written by Long Gang himself, while Long Gang believed that these articles were written by Zou Wenhuai. written.

"Wait a moment!"

   He Guanchang was the first to react in Long Gang's words, looking at Long Gang worriedly, and asked.

   "Director Long, didn't you ask the newspaper to publish these articles at noon today?"

  Longgang was also stunned. Although he really hoped that this movie would be recognized by more people, he still needs face. He didn't think of such a bragging article!

   "Of course not, isn't it Mr. Zou and Mr. He who made it?"

  Zou Wenhuai was also stunned, my **** head was rusted, so I let the newspaper publish such an article, if possible, Zou Wenhuai didn't want to publish this morning's article, because it was too embarrassing.

  He has worked in the film industry for so many years, so he naturally understands what it means to be tired of fame!

   If a movie can still be watched, it is no problem to be boasted like this, but if a movie can’t even be watched, then there is only one result, and the previous reputation is tired!

  Now is Xiangjiang in the 1970s, not the internal entertainment of later generations. No matter how much the later generations quarrel, it is only limited to the Internet.

  Keyboard Man doesn't have the guts to show up, and sometimes he dare not use his screen name, so he can only post messages anonymously.

   But now it is Xiangjiang in the 1970s, if

  In Golden Harvest's movie theater.

Snapped!

   A crisp sound sounded, and everyone in the cinema looked towards the place where the sound came from.

  A young man stood up angrily, "What kind of **** movie, there is no plot for a long time?"

   While speaking, the other party directly picked up the Coke bottle in his hand and threw it at the big screen.

   "Is Jiahe deceiving people like this now? Don't you even want your face?"

  The security of the movie theater saw this situation and wanted to step forward to stop it.

As a result, at this moment, a young man also stood up in another position, and shouted out of righteous indignation: "That's right, now Jiahe doesn't even want his face to make money, such a bad film, dare to brag like that, A waste of my movie ticket money!"

   "Shameless, really shameless!"

   More and more voices sounded, which made the security of the movie theater have no courage to step forward to dissuade them.

  So from the beginning, there were only people swearing, and in the end, more and more people threw their Coke bottles at the big screen.

  The movie theater is in complete chaos!

   "Everyone come with me to Golden Harvest, I have to ask Zou Wenhuai what he thinks, he even came up with such a bad movie to fool everyone!"

  Someone raised their arms for a while, and followers immediately gathered, and then all kinds of people who eat melons responded one after another.

  So, a crowd came out of the movie theater in a mighty way, and flocked in the direction of Jiahe.

   This incident naturally alarmed the police and the media, and soon Zou Wenhuai and others also learned about the situation here.

  Zou Wenhuai let out a long sigh, the worrying thing still happened.

   "Who the **** is killing us?" Long Gang also reacted at this time.

  Zou Wenhuai glanced at Longgang blankly, and it turned out to be a **** with a crooked butt. Why did Jiahe put Bao on this person at the beginning?

never mind!

  Everything is a foregone conclusion!

   Xiangjiang Golden Harvest can’t keep it anymore, I can still use the money from selling Golden Harvest to go to Hollywood and continue to hug Li Xiaolong’s thigh, while Longgang

   I'm afraid I'm going to follow in Luo Wei's footsteps!

   "Let's go, let's go, if you are seen by those fans who come to the company, you may not be able to leave!" Zou Wenhuai waved his hands weakly.

   At this time, he no longer wants to say anything to these people.

  Long Gang couldn't help but said: "Mr. Zou, the movie is indeed a good movie, but it's just that these audiences don't understand how to appreciate it!"

"roll!"

  Zou Wenhuai finally got angry.

Longgang had no choice but to leave in despair. As for Xie Xian, Deng Guangrong and Deng Guangrong looked at each other and knew that Jiahe couldn't stay anymore, but they still politely said goodbye to Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang before leaving of.

   "Call Chu Huan!"

  Zou Wenhuai sat there dejectedly preaching.

  He Guanchang did not call Chu Huan immediately, but couldn't help but said: "Maybe there is a turning point?"

Zou Wenhuai smiled wryly, and said: "There is no turning point. If you lose, you will lose. Now it depends on how much Chu Huan can give us. Leonard, Xiangjiang has no market for us. Now we can only sell it. Golden Harvest's money has gone to Hollywood, where we still have Aaron. As long as Aaron's movies continue to be successful in Hollywood, we are not really finished.

   Maybe in a few years, we can come back again! "

  He Guanchang said worriedly: "But at this time, Chu Huan will definitely lower the price fiercely. Why don't we find more people, so that Chu Huan can also put some pressure on that side!"

  Zou Wenhuai waved his hands and said: "It's useless, in the Xiangjiang film industry, only Shao Yifu can compete with Chu Huan"

   "Then I'd rather sell it to Chu Huan!" He Guanchang said immediately.

   "That's it. None of the rich people in Xiangjiang is an idiot. The current situation is obvious that Chu Huan has already dominated the Xiangjiang film industry. They will not come out to make enemies with Chu Huan at this time."

  Shaw Brothers’ films are still strong in the Hong Kong film industry, but Shaw Brothers’ films have become their own country, and there is no satellite company system, so their influence is actually not as good as that of black and white images.

  He Guanchang could only let out a long sigh at this time, the matter was inevitable.

   Then he picked up the phone and dialed the black and white image.

  After He Guanchang put down the phone, he said to Zou Wenhuai: "We have already contacted, and Chu Huan is waiting for us in the black and white video!"

  Zou Wenhuai laughed and got up, and then calmly said: "The winner does have this right, let's go, go and see what price our old opponent will give us!"

  He Guanchang nodded, and followed Zou Wenhuai out of Jiahe's office.

  When they walked out of the office, they saw that all the employees of Golden Harvest had gathered at the door of Zou Wenhuai's office.

  Seeing these people, both Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang showed some painful expressions. These people are capable people, but they met even more capable people.

   "I'm sorry everyone, I'm afraid I won't be able to go on with everyone from now on!"

  Zou Wenhuai bowed deeply to everyone!

   Seeing Zou Wenhuai's behavior like this, everyone knew that Jiahe would not be able to keep it!

   All of a sudden, painful expressions appeared on everyone's faces.

"If there is no accident, perhaps Chu Huan will be the boss of Golden Harvest tomorrow. I think there is no one here who doesn't know Chu Huan? This person has acquired many companies before, but there has been no mass layoffs. So our Golden Harvest should be the same, and I will take this matter as a condition for me to sell Golden Harvest to Chu Huan.

  So you don’t have to worry about whether your work will be lost, but I can’t go on with you. I personally apologize! "

   After saying these words, Zou Wenhuai bowed to everyone again, then turned and left here resolutely.

  When he and He Guanchang came out of the underground parking lot in a car, they saw that the policemen had already arrived downstairs in the company, negotiating with the spectators who came to demonstrate.

   Neither of them spoke, they just looked back at Golden Harvest again, and asked the driver to drive to the Tseung Kwan O studio!

   This is the first time for the two to come to the Tseung Kwan O studio.

  Looking at the bustling project here, the crew coming and going, and the atmosphere of laughter.

   "We didn't lose this war, but we lost it before!" Zou Wenhuai preached to He Guanchang.

  He Guanchang didn't speak, just stared at everything here, maybe He Guanchang once had such a picture fantasy, but in the picture he imagined, the master should be their Jiahe instead of a black and white image.

   Soon the car came to the main building of the black and white image.

  Wu Xiaoshi is already waiting here.

   "Mr. Zou, Mr. He, welcome!"

  He didn't want to hear that at all if he could.

   But at this time. Losers also have the dignity of losers.

   "Thank you, Ms. Wu!"

  At this time, Wu Xiaoshi is no longer unknown in the Xiangjiang business circle. As the leader of the secretarial team of Jiaku Consulting Company, Wu Xiaoshi has gradually gained some fame in the business circle.

  Wu Xiaoshi smiled and nodded, and brought Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang to Chu Huan's office in Tseung Kwan O.

   After the two came in, they met Chu Huan and Fang Jianhui, the general manager of Black and White Video.

  Chu Huan stood up with a smile and said: "Mr. Zou, Mr. He has not seen for a long time!"

  Since he has already won, there is no need to put on a posture of being invincible.

  The two sides sat down, and Zou Wenhuai didn't talk nonsense, and said directly: "Mr. Chu, let's make a price!"

  Chu Huan laughed softly: "100 million Hong Kong dollars, I think this price should be very fair!"

Zou Wenhuai shook his head and said, "Mr. Chu, don't be joking. Although Golden Harvest was defeated, no one fell. Golden Harvest has its own actors, directors, screenwriters, its own theater chain, its own studio, and its own For distribution channels, the price of 100 million Hong Kong dollars is not fair at all.”

   Golden Harvest Cinemas is still the largest third theater company in Heung Kong. Cathay Pacific Studios was the second largest film studio in Heung Kong before the completion of the black and white Tseung Kwan O studio. Golden Harvest also controls the distribution channels in Southeast Asia, especially Japan.

   These are Zou Wenhuai's hole cards.

  Chu Huan signaled Fang Jianhui to hand over the stack of documents on the table to Zou Wenhuai.

  Zou Wenhuai took the information.

Chu Huan said with a smile: "At this time and at that time, how long has it been since Golden Harvest's actors, directors, and screenwriters have made a profitable movie? Your theaters, facilities and equipment have already lagged behind Shanhai theaters. Even if we take them over Needs to be refurbished, and as for Cathay Pacific Studios, to be honest, we don't need them at all!"

   "Distribution channels, I don't think we need to say that Mr. Zou should know that black and white images don't lack their own distribution channels now."

  Zou Wenhuai listened to Chu Huan's words, and looked at the information in his hand. The information inside was about Golden Harvest, including the valuation of Golden Harvest's current office building, the valuation of theater chains, the valuation of Cathay Pacific Studios, etc.

  For Chu Huan to be so familiar with Jiahe, both Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang showed surprised expressions. There were some contents in it that even they didn't know.

  But they definitely can't calculate according to Chu Huan's valuation.

"Mr. Chu, that's not how the account is calculated. The prices you give are actually the current prices of Xiangjiang properties. You own a real estate company, Mr. Chu. You should understand that the current land prices in Xiangjiang are wrong, and they will definitely rise in the future. What's more, Mr. Chu, if you win Golden Harvest, your Shanhai Cinemas will become the largest cinema company in Hong Kong in the future. Everyone knows what kind of convenience this will bring you.

Although the Cathay Pacific Studio is not as good as the Tseung Kwan O Studio, it will take at least a year for the Tseung Kwan O Studio to be completed. During this period of time, the Cathay Pacific Studio can perfectly take over the work of the Tseung Kwan O Studio. The land price of the studio will definitely rise, and whether Director Chu wants to use it for the real estate business or continue to do the studio, it will be higher than the current valuation! "

"The current account cannot be calculated with future data!" Naturally, Chu Huan could not follow Zou Wenhuai's footsteps, "Mr. Zou, you know better than me what is going on in Xiangjiang now, let alone in the entire Xiangjiang movie market. In the industry, besides our black and white video, is there anyone else who can take over Golden Harvest?"

  Zou Wenhuai pondered: "We can sell to Shaw Brothers, and we can also split Golden Harvest's business and sell it to different film companies!"

  Chu Huan chuckled and said, "Will Mr. Zou sell Golden Harvest to Shao?"

  Zou Wenhuai said: "If there is no other way, we can only sell it to Shaw Brothers!"

  Afterwards, Chu Huan and Zou Wenhuai engaged in an extreme tussle. Both sides made concessions and made progress until the evening.

  Chu Huan finally reached a consensus with Zou Wenhuai, and the black and white image bought the ownership of Golden Harvest at a price of 120 million Hong Kong dollars, but this did not include the cooperative relationship between Golden Harvest and Li Xiaolong.

  Before coming to see Chu Huan, Zou Wenhuai had already transferred the contract relationship between Golden Harvest and Li Xiaolong Xiehe Films to himself.

Regarding this point, Chu Huan has no opinion. Before purchasing Jiahe, Li Xiaolong had already called Chu Huan and talked about Jiahe's affairs. He was not pleading for Jiahe, but just told Chu Huan that Zou Wenhuai had already made a decision. Go to Hollywood for development, and they will continue to fulfill their previous contracts.

Chu Huan does not comment on Zou Wenhuai's development in Hollywood. If he thinks that with Li Xiaolong, he can gain a firm foothold in Hollywood, he can only say that Zou Wenhuai doesn't understand Hollywood too well. A more intriguing and xenophobic place.

  Even he has to have Vertex Pictures in front of him, it is very difficult for Zou Wenhuai to succeed!

   And he only got a shot at three movies!

  Because Li Xiaolong’s film contract with Golden Harvest was also full after his three movie contracts with Warner were full.

   At that time, whether Li Xiaolong could still play with Zou Wenhuai, that's not certain!

   Also, if I can get up smoothly at 8:00 am for the next chapter~~~
