Through the wealth life

Chapter 544 Artist Association
With the arrival of [-] o'clock, Alien ET officially began to be screened in Xiangjiang. At the same time, it also began to be screened in Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, and Southeast Asia.

Li Guangyu watched the whole movie with Lei Juekun, Run Run Shaw, Wrinkle Huai and Xiang Huaqiang in the front row.

This is a comedy movie, a simple and cute little alien has a short, warm, sincere and touching friendship with an innocent earth child.

After the movie ended, Wrinkle Huai said: "Li Sheng, congratulations, your Jiayi investment this time will bring you rich returns."

As a wrinkle pregnant who has been in the film industry for decades, he naturally knows which movies can be sold well.This is not a movie that even I think is good after watching it, let alone children, and this is often the largest group. They will be accompanied by their families when they watch it, so it is very suitable for the whole family to watch.

And from the time they chose to release it, it can be seen that this is the summer vacation, and this movie will definitely sell well.

Li Guangyu said politely: "It's also my luck. I originally asked Jiayi Film Company to invest in a film there to test the waters. I didn't expect them to be able to contact Mr. Spielberg. That's why we became a shareholder." The situation with this movie."

Wrinkle Huai obviously didn't believe Li Guangyu's words. Without the help of the senior management of the Li family consortium, Jiayi Film Company would be able to contact Steve Spielberg.I have worked in the United States for many years, and I know how difficult it is to cooperate with these famous directors.

After the movie ended, Li Guangyu, Lei Juekun and others did not leave separately, but went to the Peninsula Hotel. Run Run Shaw needed to discuss something with them.

Run Run Shaw has been making a lot of moves recently. His TVB and Qiu Degen's ATV have long since become satellite TV.This didn't seem to satisfy Run Run Shaw. Although he quit the Hong Kong film industry, he still couldn't let go of his film career.

It is not enough to get a Golden Award, and some time ago, they bought the film biweekly. Today, I don't know what to discuss when Run Run Shaw invites these film bosses to come over.

In a box at the Peninsula Hotel, Run Run Shaw said, "Thank you for giving me face and being able to come here. I invite you to come here today because I want to discuss something with you. I hope you can support my proposal."

Then Run Run Shaw expressed his thoughts, this time he was planning to set up an artist association to protect the rights of Hong Kong artists.

Li Guangyu, Qiu Degen, Wrinkle Huai and the others were very puzzled by this. When did Run Run Shaw care about the interests of artists? This is a big joke.

After seeing the expressions of Li Guangyu and others, Lei Juekun said to those present: "Run Run Shaw discussed with me about Guangyu's establishment of the Artists Association, and I support it. You also know that with the prosperity of Hong Kong's film industry, some Some people on the road also intervened, but these people didn’t follow the rules very much, and used coercion and threats against some actors, threatening them to take films, which seriously disrupted the Xiangjiang film market.”

Xiang Huaqiang didn't say anything about it. His own company's ability to abide by the rules does not mean that other associations will also abide by them. Many associations just want to take advantage of the current good market to make a fortune, so they don't care about other things.

Wrinkle Huai said: "Sixth brother, Juekun, since this is the case, it will be useless for us to establish this artist association. This situation cannot be resolved by us."

As bosses, they don't like those associations and trade unions, which are of no benefit to them. Many times these are established to restrict them, and Wrinkle Huai naturally has no interest in it.

Run Run Shaw said: "The next thing is the important point. The three of you are the masters of the Xiangjiang theater chain. Even if there are some sporadic theaters, it will not be a good climate. After the establishment of the Artists Association, if these artists are coerced and threatened by some companies , as long as it is held with our association, as long as it is a fact, we will jointly block this film company, so that this film company has no foothold in Hong Kong. This is also good for the development of your film company. After all, they disrupt the market and are beneficial to everyone. Fighting hurts."

Li Guangyu didn't care about this, no association in Xiangjiang dared to force his staff from Jiayi Artists Company to film.

Li Guangyu said: "Uncle Six, Uncle Lei, who do you plan to host the artist association? We are not suitable to manage this association. We are all the bosses of artists, but we cannot represent their interests."

The reason why Run Run Shaw and Lei Juekun proposed to establish an artist association is mainly to expand their own influence. With the development of several years, the advantages of radio stations are gradually disappearing. In many cases, even ATV cannot be suppressed. .

The reason lies in the artists. Li Guangyu and Qiu Degen are really not afraid of spending money. They used to have artist classes in TVB, but now they have three, and Jiayi and ATV are paid better than TVB, which makes TVB in recent years. There is a gap in talent cultivation.

And New Art City is now bundled with Wireless, the cooperation between the two is very close, and the disconnection of wireless personnel has a great impact on New Art City.

They hope that the establishment of the artist association this time will firstly give them a good reputation, and secondly attract a group of artists to promote the development of Wireless and New Art City.

As for the Artists Association coming to cause inconvenience to them, that is simply impossible, they just need obedient personnel to go up and take the helm.As for those who have ideas, it is impossible to become the management of the association.

Run Run Shaw said: "Guangyu, what do you think of Guan Shan being the president of the Artists Association?"

I still know Li Guangyu, who was a smash hit in the 60s, and his daughter will be more famous than him in the future. Jiahui Guan is Rosamund Kwan, and now she is also an artist of TVB.

Li Guangyu himself doesn't care, anyway, these artists under his banner are currently being paid well, so they won't come to cause any trouble for him.Since Run Run Shaw and Lei Juekun wanted to set up an artist association, they could do whatever they wanted, without any influence on Jiayi Group or him.

Li Guangyu expressed his support here, and Wrinkle Huai himself has no objection. Wrinkle Huai is the worst for some associations to disrupt the Xiangjiang film market. He hopes that the development of Xiangjiang film industry will be better and better, and these film companies are obviously Xiangjiang. The moths of the movie world.Their long-term existence has caused considerable damage to the Hong Kong film industry.

Although after the Artists Association is established, there may be some restrictions on their film company in the future, but this is also inevitable.There are some associations in all walks of life. Xiangjiang is not a precedent in this regard. Some other regions have already existed. Even if they are not established now, there will be ones sooner or later in the future.

Run Run Shaw was obviously very happy to see that everyone here agreed to his proposal. This would greatly increase his influence in Hong Kong's film and television industry.

He knew that he was unlikely to be able to control the association, but wireless was very useful to him. When he needed talents, he could also check to see if there were any fish in the association that slipped through the net.

Run Run Shaw said with a smile: "Don't worry, the establishment of this association will definitely not hinder the development of your company."
