Through the wealth life

Chapter 1125 The Swordsman: Undefeated East

In the afternoon of the same day, Li Guangyu and Gan Qin went to Jiayi Building. As time passed, Jiayi Cinema Company has completed the decoration of ten movie theaters in Pengcheng and Shanghai. If the movies can pass the review, they can open their doors.

In the past few months, more than a dozen Xiangjiang films have entered the mainland, but the box office is not very good, but it is already a huge improvement for the Xiangjiang film industry, they have at least entered the mainland market.

As for why the box office is so low, firstly, the ticket price is low. Nowadays, depending on the movie theaters in the mainland, the ticket price is the same. The low one is only 3.72 cents a piece, and the high one is 3.72 cents a piece. One US dollar can be exchanged for [-] RMB.

Based on this conversion, the current RMB 1 is equivalent to about 2.43 Hong Kong dollars. Of course, this refers to the official exchange rate in the Mainland. Now the exchange rate in the Mainland is more responsible. Li Guangyu is too lazy to delve into it. All the RMB he earns in the Mainland is used for the expansion of the Mainland industry and employee wages , had no intention of exchanging foreign currency at all.

Now Xiangjiang tickets cost more than ten Hong Kong dollars a piece, while the mainland is only a few cents RMB, which is dozens of times worse. In addition, it is difficult for Xiangjiang Film Company to check internal statistics, so the box office is relatively low.

In the meeting room of Jiayi Group, Tang Zaichuan, the president of the group, and the senior management of the group were already seated inside, waiting for the arrival of Li Guangyu and Gan Qin.

Promoted from the vice president of Xiangjiang Communications Group to the president of Jiayi Group, Tang Zaichuan is now familiar with the group's affairs. As the world's top media group, the internal situation of Jiayi is more complicated than he imagined.

There is Liu Tianci, who used to be the president of the group and was reduced to vice president to be in charge of the group's American affairs; Ye Jiexin, the executive vice president who has been developing from the TV station; Veteran, Xu Yali, the current vice president of the group.

This person has a very good relationship with senior officials such as Gan Qin, Qin Jiao, Guo Qingya, Bai Jiangting, He Mengting, and Zhao Xiaoyan.

Yan Qiuling, the general manager of the group's administration department, came from the assistant office, and her background is also not shallow.

He came from the communication group by himself, and he didn't have any team in Jiayi group. Fortunately, the senior management of the group cooperated with his work, so that the group could develop steadily and well. If he wanted to completely control Jiayi group, it would not take a while. did it.

After sitting down, Li Guangyu said: "Although the current box office in the mainland market is not very satisfactory, we can't ignore it. At present, our own 10 theaters have completed renovations and will officially open next month. With the support of our theaters, our box office in the mainland will get better and better."

Tang Zaichuan responded: "Li Sheng, we will increase the release of our films in the Mainland, expand the influence of our Jiayi Film Company in the Mainland, and at the same time promote our artists to the Mainland and expand their influence in the Mainland. With the rapid economic development in the mainland, we will continue to create new records in the box office in the mainland."

Tang Zaichuan was very clear about the problem of the poor box office in the mainland. The low box office there was not because the ticket price was low, but it was not easy to say on their side. He also understood why Li Guangyu insisted on building his own theater even though the theater would To pay a 25% tax on the ticket price, you also need to own the cinema yourself.

Even if they only occupy the markets of Pengcheng and Shanghai, he believes that the future market of these two cities will be larger than that of Xiangjiang.

And they are still working hard. As long as the operation of the theater has a good driving effect on the local economy, they will be able to enter more areas.

In particular, cities with a good relationship between Li's consortium and the local area, such as Ludao, Shuangqing, and Qindao, have great opportunities.

They have already passed the most difficult step, and the future expansion will be relatively easy.

Li Guangyu asked: "How is the movie you prepared, can it be released on August 8st as scheduled?"

This time, the movie was carefully produced by Jiayi Film Company and adapted from Jin Yong's novel Swordsman. The movie is called Swordsman: The Undefeated East.

Li Guangyu had seen the movie of the same name in his previous life, and he only remembered Lin Qingxia's Dongfang Bubai, but he didn't remember the rest.

This time, Jiayi still let Lin Qingxia play Dongfang Bubai, group artist Qiu Shuzhen played the junior sister, Wen Bixia played Ren Yingying, and Yuan Jieying played Lan Fenghuang. For the mainland market, Jiayi Film Company specially invited Jet Li who has a great influence in the mainland Starred in the hero Linghu Chong.

Its director is led by the well-known Xiangjiang director Zhang Che, general manager of Changhe Film Company, and it is co-adapted by many well-known screenwriters of Jiayi Group.

Xu Yali, vice president of the group, responded: "Li Sheng, the mainland is still reviewing the film, and it is expected to pass next week. On August 8, our film will be available in Xiangjiang, Baodao, mainland China, Southeast Asia and other countries. South Korea is released as scheduled, and we are still stepping up public relations efforts in Japan to try our best to make the movie release simultaneously in Japan."

At present, Japan has a limit of 10 Hongkong films, so it is relatively difficult to enter the Japanese release, and Jiayi Group still needs to communicate with the Japanese Ministry of Culture.

For the Japanese market, Li Guangyu doesn't have much to do now. Now he only hopes to accelerate the development of the mainland market. With the support of the huge mainland market, Hong Kong Films will not decline.

Li Guangyu said: "Japan tries to find a way. For the mainland, we also have to find a way to expand our influence, such as holding concerts in the mainland. We don't care about whether we can make profits. Now we mainly focus on the fame of our artists. Entering the mainland, as long as you gain fame, you will naturally make profits in the future. You must make plans for this, such as Huacheng, Shanghai Stock Market, Qindao, Jiangcheng, Rongcheng, Shuangqing, Yongcheng, Ludao and other places. "

Holding large-scale concerts in mainland China can't make much money now, but Li Guangyu is planning for the future, as long as he becomes famous, he will earn money from a few endorsements in the future.

Xu Yali responded: "Li Sheng, I will make plans in this regard after the meeting, and communicate with the mainland to try to hold the Jiayi Group Stars Concert in Huacheng next month, so that some of our artists can accumulate popularity in Huacheng."

Li Guangyu thought for a while and said, "I'll change it this time. I will hold the Jiayi Group Stars Charity Concert in Huacheng. All ticket sales will be donated to the Guangdong Provincial Government, mainly used to support poor students."

Anyway, there were not many tickets, so Li Guangyu decided to do it to the end. Not only would Jiayi Group have a good reputation, but these artists would also have a good impression.

As for these artists, since it is a charity concert, it is naturally voluntary. The group will only cover their living, transportation, and accommodation expenses, and there is no appearance fee.

However, every time Jiayi Group holds such activities, most of the artists will apply, because Jiayi Group has a preference in this aspect when choosing the main and supporting roles in film and television. In addition, those who voluntarily participate will not suffer. The group's endorsement contract will make up for them.

Xu Yali naturally has no objection to this. Anyway, it is very difficult to make a profit in the mainland at present. After these people become famous, the album can still sell well in the mainland.
