My Hong Kong Island Filmmaker

Chapter 1494 The Era of VCD to Be Unveiled

PS: Ask for a recommendation ticket!Ask for a monthly pass!
In the luxurious private room, there is a silver-gray TV set with a large back, and a black Yaoxing brand VCD player is placed below it.

The power light of the machine is on, the disc is spinning, and the movie is playing on the TV. The picture quality is relatively not very good, but it is enough to meet the demand for TV viewing.

On the round table in front of the circular leather sofa, there is an ice bucket, a few bottles of foreign wine and champagne, and a few plates of marinated dipping water, grilled skewers and roast goose and char siew.

Boss Wu, the tens of billions of water hose in the C position, was holding a rooster bowl and licking the Chezai noodles baldly, looking a bit vulgar.

Everyone around him started with a net worth of 10 billion, and the water pipes in their cars were not Rolls, Bentleys or Ferraris, and they all ate the same vulgar way, including Su Liyao, a lawyer-turned-sophisticated intellectual.

Everyone does not have the attitude of a rich man.

Oh, I recently bought the Mazda RX-7 sports car, one of the four kings of Dongying sports car, which is slow and elegant.

"If you eat noodles without garlic, the flavor will be reduced by half."

Fei Cheng picked up a clove of garlic and gnawed half of it. He quickly paired it with a curry fish ball, suppressed the spiciness in his mouth, and let out a moan of great satisfaction, "Sure enough, only carbohydrates can make people happy!"

"It can also make people grow flesh." Qiong Gu picked up the noodles and added.

Compared with the few bosses who are used to eating raw seafood, this time I like to eat this market snack.

Gu Zai, a believer of the Poor God, eats Che Zai noodles the most on weekdays. No matter how he likes it, he will never eat like this...

"People who drive Mazdas are annoying."

Fei Cheng teased in dissatisfaction, "Throwing the remaining half of the garlic into his mouth, he continued to mutter:

"Recently, the movie industry is really exaggerating. All kinds of movies have been approved, and the investment of tens of millions is open and shut. These guys don't even bat an eye. It's more open than the club..."

During this period of time, Tianmu, Hengshi, Media Asia, the three major injustices... the three major new film power companies, were hailed as the "New Three Musketeers" by people inside and outside the circle.

They frantically recruited troops and started various projects.

At the same time, using these projects to go to the market to coax those leeks to invest, the momentum is so great that Li Licheng is a little tongue-tied.

I feel like this group of people are crazy!
From project approval to filming and production, this is a process. Even if Hong Kong films are known as fast shooters, they must abide by energy conservation and quantum mechanics, right?Can't change the staff, change the shooting progress, change the production team out of thin air, right?

"Boss, now our DVD players are being sold sporadically on the market, but they are still presented in the form of a fashion item, and most of the people who buy them are young people. This is far from enough..."

Su Liyao took out a few paper towels and wiped the residue from the corners of his mouth, and said with a smile: "Video players should change the lives of adults, not just a behavior pursued by young people.

The company expects the first publicity and distribution expenses to exceed 2000 million Hong Kong dollars, and will carry out TV, radio and hard advertising promotions in Hong Kong Island, Korea, Dongying, Bay Bay, Southeast Asia and the mainland.

The second publicity fee depends on the situation, not less than 3000 million Hong Kong dollars.Our integrated channels of Huanyu International have the ability to sell simultaneously, and put the sales terminal into the target customer group.

Now the most important thing is movie transcoding, and the company has already finished it. Basically, the movies and TV series that we have obtained copyright over the years will release genuine CDs as soon as possible. "

"Actually, there are already pirated discs on the market." Luo Dong said.

The crowd was silent.

Qi Qi glanced at the big breasted brother.

"Hey, you also see that I put me under a lot of pressure."

Fei Cheng held the bowl and shrugged his shoulders, "I didn't expect that I let Chengren Technology transcode those Hong Kong Island Fengyue III movies, Japanese and Korean movies, European and American movies, self-portrait candid shots, One Hot, Woodpecker, San Fernando's boutique recommendation So popular!

A few days ago, Andy Tsai told me that in just over two months, my Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing collection sets sold a total of hundreds of thousands of sets including the VIP exclusive version, director's cut version, celebrity signature version, and regular version. This is something I never thought of... As for pirated copies, I don't know how many sets.

The problem is that the Honor Ⅰ VCD player we just shipped has only sold tens of thousands of sets, I don’t understand how these people who don’t have a DVD player have such purchasing power…”

"The most expensive diamond cards for the 'character model cards' in the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing series of movies hyped on the market are already thousands of Hong Kong dollars per piece." Gu Zai added, knowing the market very well.

uh~~
For making money~~
"Chengren Technology", a subsidiary of Feicheng, launched a series of character model cards. At first, it was a three-shot game to test the waters—after all, the "Gangster" series, "God of Gamblers" series and many comic series all released cards. It's not too bad...

The popularity of the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing series is also very high, so try it...

It's sold out!
It even revitalized the entire card market, which Li Licheng did not expect... Especially in the Hong Kong Island and Dongying area, these cards even appeared to be 'hot', which directly led Chengren Technology to establish a new company overnight, and put The copyright of many cards is in hand.

At this time, the CD of this series is the first to be released, do you think it will be popular?
At the same time, this series is also the most pirated.

Of course, the genuine parties disdain and stare at this kind of behavior... But the pirated version is really cheap. The genuine version may cost several hundred yuan, and the pirated series only adds up to 90 yuan. How can this not make people tempted? ?
Understand
In recent years, ticket prices have risen comparable to oil prices in later generations.

In 1993, the price of a movie ticket on Hong Kong Island had already exceeded 30 Hong Kong dollars, and the ticket price of a prime movie theater was even close to 40 yuan. For a movie ticket that cost more than a dozen yuan a few years ago, it is really terrifying.

The skyrocketing ticket prices at this time are due to the rapid economic development of Hong Kong Island on the one hand, which has led to a rise in the housing market, property rents, and personnel expenses, forcing theaters to raise prices. On the other hand, the increase in film investment, plus The frenzy of the stock market requires good feedback from the market.

At this time, the cheap way of watching movies will naturally let the audience choose.

This is why Su Liyao thinks the time has come.

"Can the logistics keep up?" Wu Xiaozu ate a piece of radish, staring at "Evil, West Poison" playing on the TV.

That's right—

The movie hasn't been released yet, they already have a copy.

When the big breasted brother brought over the copied CD, Wu Xiaozu was startled.

I feel that the VCD interview is really a double-edged sword!

"Kyushu Trading and Shunfeng Logistics are all fine. I have greeted several associations, and they will fully cooperate with us." Fei Cheng patted his chest and assured.

The two commercial and logistics companies are now the best logistics in Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan and Guangdong Province.

This is due to the establishment of social relations and the participation of associations.

In this day and age, transportation is inseparable from associations.

"After we have integrated the channels in Southeast Asia, Eastern Europe and South America will become the targets of the next stage."

Su Liyao said slowly: "Our previous investment in Eastern Europe allowed us to get to know many local officials and businessmen, and the local people are very rich, and they have not experienced too many eras of home video recorders. Compared to North America, VCD discs have better access to the market.

We are also negotiating with Sony and Panasonic to formally determine the format after transcoding.However, according to the prediction of Yaoxing Company, it will become our competitor.However, the VCD of the Honor II model is already in the testing stage, which is enough for us to have enough competitiveness and market buffer. "

"On the basis of the Honor Ⅰ model, some appearance differences can be added, and then sold as the Honor Ⅰ Plus." Wu Xiaozu opened the Pandora's Box with considerable experience, and this move is no less than Li Chaoren's promotion of sharing.

All of them are so unscrupulous.

"Is the CD of this movie out?" Fei Cheng suddenly pointed at the TV with his chopsticks.

Luo Dong frowned.

Su Liyao smiled.

Gu Zai was dumbfounded.

"Not for now, let's talk about it after it's released for a week." Wu Xiaozu still felt that there must be a bottom line, and at the same time protect the legs of his beloved disciple.

"If you don't do this business of piracy, there are others. But you'd better make a rule, at least give the film a week to release, otherwise bad money will drive out good money, and no one will really care about filming." Wu Xiaozu is a little Hypocritical sigh.

Hard!

But let's leave a sigh of relief for Hong Kong movies.

If that counts...

"Okay boss." Fei Cheng nodded in response, "Piracy business is very profitable. Although we prevent piracy, it is difficult to control it, especially the copies from various companies...I am not sure how long this rule can last."

"Do your best to obey the destiny."

"I heard that "The Great Times" will be rebroadcasted on TVB in December." Luo Dong said suddenly.

"Ding Xie is coming?" Su Liyao had a smile on his face.

"Hollywood dinosaurs, the stock market, VCD, plus Mecca...the power is not inferior to Ms. Qiu!" Wu Xiaozu couldn't help but let out a sigh.

"What happened to Doudou?" Fei Cheng was puzzled.

"The boss is talking about Ms. Qiu who wanted to visit Dongying in the 60s. I want you to read more military reports." Luo Dong said indignantly.

Gu Zai murmured silently beside him, and couldn't help but shudder at the calculations of this group of old silver coins.There is even a feeling of Hong Kong movies taking pills at any time.

　I was uncomfortable with the coding yesterday, so I deleted it all.I feel a little confused lately.Organize the outline.Going to try acupuncture tomorrow...
