The richest man

Chapter 20 Akihabara

"Are you really going to RB?"

"Well, I want to sell "The Serpentine Hand" to RB as soon as possible."

Zhang Jun is short of money. If "The Serpentine Hand" was released in RB earlier, the box office would be divided and converted into Hong Kong dollars, there might be several million.

Moreover, "Drunken Master" is also being filmed. After the movie was released in RB in the previous life, it raked in 19 billion yen. Naturally, Zhang Jun had to find ways to get through the RB movie market distribution channel in advance.

And "The Serpentine Hand" can be regarded as a stepping stone, allowing Cheng Long to make a name for himself in RB.

Kai Tak Airport.

After Zhang Jun waved goodbye to Zhang Zhenghao and Yang Qiu, he boarded the plane and went to RB alone.

Zhang Jun only knows a little bit of Japanese, and he learned it from watching RB's short movies, so he won't understand any more, but this does not affect his communication with RB people.None of the business elites understand English.

On the plane, Zhang Jun picked up a stack of documents and browsed carefully.

"Rb's five major film companies, who should I turn to first?"

Zhang Jun thought about it for a while, and decided to find Dongbao Co., Ltd. first. This film company has a lot of movie theaters and strong distribution capabilities. Many American film companies have chosen to cooperate with it.

In the evening, the plane arrived at RB Tokyo.

Zhang Jun first found a hotel to rest for one night, and then went to Dongbao Co., Ltd. the next morning.

After arriving at the place, I explained my purpose to the receptionist. The receptionist learned that Zhang Jun is the highest-grossing film director in Hong Kong, so she didn't dare to neglect her immediately. She quickly called the distribution manager and led Zhang Jun to wait in the living room.

After a while, Zhang Jun saw a 35-year-old, slightly bald, middle-aged man in a black suit walking over.

"Hello, Mr. Zhang, I'm Watanabe Nomura, manager of the distribution department of Toho Co., Ltd."

"Hello, Mr. Watanabe, I came here to seek cooperation with Toho Co., Ltd. to jointly release the movie "Serpentine Hands"! This movie, like Li Xiaolong's movie, is also a kung fu movie, and it even broke broke the box office record of a Hong Kong movie, and broke 600 million Hong Kong dollars for the first time. I believe that this movie will achieve very impressive results even if it is released in RB!"

Li Xiaolong is really the pioneer of kung fu movies. Zhang Jun feels that every time he promotes kung fu movies, he can save a lot of words.

Nomura Watanabe nodded and said, "I've heard of this movie too. It's really popular in Hong Kong, and our company is also interested."

Zhang Jun knew that they would be interested, so he said again: "Mr. Watanabe, I have brought the movie film, let's show it first."

"All right!"

Immediately, Zhang Jun, Watanabe Nomura and the others came to a small screening room and started watching the movie.

The dubbing has not been changed to Japanese, but Zhang Jun has had subtitles made so that these RB people can't understand.

After a while, laughter resounded in the auditorium.

The witty and humorous fighting is really popular with RB people.

After watching a movie, Zhang Jun feels that this cooperation should not be a big problem.

"Mr. Zhang, "The Serpentine Hand" was shot very well, it is very humorous and funny, I decided to buy this movie!" Watanabe Nomura praised.

"Thank you Mr. Watanabe for your compliment, but how do you plan to cooperate?"

"Of course it's a buyout!"

Watanabe Nomura paused, and then said, "Toho Co., Ltd. can offer 6000 million yen!"

Hearing this, Zhang Jun immediately calculated in his heart.

In 1973, US$1 = HK$5.

And 1 US dollar is equal to 260 yen, and 6000 million yen is almost 500 million Hong Kong dollars.

Of course, the yen is not worth much now, and the yen will not appreciate rapidly until after the Plaza Accord in 1985. In April 1995, 4 US dollar = 1 yen, setting a record high exchange rate between the yen and the US dollar.

Zhang Jun is already very satisfied with this number, the most important thing is to establish a cooperative relationship and look forward to the cooperation in the next film.Furthermore, now that a little profit is given up, the other party will have the motivation to promote "The Snake-shaped Hand" and see the value of Cheng Long.It will be easier to cooperate with the movie "Drunken Master" next time
Therefore, Zhang Jun did not counter-offer, and agreed very decisively: "Okay!"

Watanabe Nomura was overjoyed when he heard the news, and immediately discussed with Zhang Jun about the release of "Serpentine Hands" in RB.

An hour later, the two ended their conversation.

Watanabe Nomura then ordered the secretary to draw up the contract.

During this conversation, Watanabe Nomura had already asked someone to investigate Zhang Jun's identity, and also contacted Zhang's Film Company by phone to confirm Zhang Jun's authenticity
After a while, the contract was drawn up.

After signing the contract, Watanabe Nomura invited: "Tomorrow and tonight, our Dongbao Co., Ltd. will hold a party. I hope you can come to participate."

"Okay, no problem, thank you for the invitation, I feel very honored to be able to participate in this party!"

After exchanging pleasantries, Zhang Jun left. He didn't expect his trip to RB to go so smoothly.

Sure enough, you need to be hardworking yourself to forge the iron. If the work is better, others are willing to cooperate.

With nothing to do, Zhang Jun went shopping in Tokyo and took a taxi to Akihabara.As a super nerd, Zhang Jun is no stranger to Akihabara, but he has never been here.

At this time, Akihabara is not as lively as in the previous life, and has become a holy place for nerds, but there are also many electronic stores, game and comic libraries.

Zhang Jun walked into a comic shop, was disappointed not long after, shook his head and walked out.The classic comics he has read have not yet been born.

"The children nowadays are so pitiful that they don't even have a good manga. Do you want me to make some manga? "Dragon Ball", "One Piece", "Oolong Police Station", "Naruto", "Slam Dunk" ","grim Reaper"……"

For those classic comics, Zhang Jun is like a treasure, and he remembers them very clearly. Back then, he often stayed up all night to read comics. Even now, thinking about it, he still feels excited.

"For the happiness of comic fans and compatriots, I decided to work tirelessly to create a comic magazine for the benefit of everyone!" Seeing the business opportunity to make money, Zhang Jun's eyes lit up, and the idea of ​​starting a comic magazine naturally came to him.

Do it in Hong Kong first, monopolize the Hong Kong comics market, and then look for opportunities to enter the RB market, and then the Southeast Asian market. Thinking about it, I think it is beautiful~
For the huge profits of comics, no one knows better than Zhang Jun. The various methods of making money in later generations, have you never eaten pork or seen pigs running?

Zhang Jun left the comic shop full of excitement.

Akihabara is simply his blessed land, and he discovered a huge business opportunity.

Of course, if you make a fortune by yourself, then RB cartoonists, and even the entire industry, will be unlucky. People rush to see their own works, so there is no chance for them to have a good meal...

No, Zhang Jun felt that he still needed someone from RB to draw manga for him, otherwise he wouldn't have time to draw.At the same time, RB cartoonists can also be used to cultivate a group of cartoon talents for Hong Kong.

To be honest, Zhang Jun doesn't really like the style of Hong Kong comics, it's too violent and bloody, and there are no two-dimensional cute girls.
