Reborn Hong Kong's Hidden Behind the Scenes

Chapter 21 Great harvest!
The next day.

Accompanied by Wang Jing, Su Cheng went to TVB and met Run Run Shaw and Fang Yat Hua.

"Mr. Shao, Miss Fang!"

"Mr. Su!"

After greeting, Run Run Shaw said with emotion: "Mr. Su is really young and promising!"

Hearing this, Su Cheng smiled lightly: "If you say young and promising, I'm afraid I can't compare with Mr. Shao!"

When Run Run Shaw was 17 years old, he followed his elder brother to develop overseas distribution in Tianyi Film Company.A year later, I became a photographer.Two years later, it even created the "send film to door" in the history of film, and implemented mobile screening.Subsequently, speed up the acquisition and establishment of theaters.

The current Shaw Cinemas can develop to the present point, most of the credit is related to Run Run Shaw.

If it weren't for his vision of future generations and his understanding of celebrities, Su Cheng would be completely incomparable with him.

Hearing this, Run Run Shaw also sighed secretly, and said with a sigh: "It's all old things."

After that, he gave Fang Yihua a wink, and the other party said, "Mr. Su, I invited you to Wireless TV today to discuss the release of the film. What do you think?"

"With Shaw Brothers here, I am of course very happy." Su Cheng said, "However, I want to sign a one-year contract with Shaw Brothers. Is it possible?"

"A one-year contract?" Not only Fang Yat Hua was stunned, but Run Run Shaw was also puzzled.

Regarding this, Su Cheng said: "Currently, our Tengyue Entertainment Company has invested in three films. Within a year, there are at least a dozen films. Since we want to cooperate, I mean it will be in place at one time. Come one year first. If The cooperation with each other is quite satisfactory, and it will not be too late to renew the contract.”

Fang Yihua was stunned for a moment, glanced at Run Run Shaw who remained calm, and said softly: "Dare to ask Mr. Su, how is the cooperation method?"

Su Cheng said: "As long as any film produced by our Tengyue Entertainment Company in the next year is released in Shaw Theaters, at least half of the theaters must be released simultaneously. The time limit must not be less than 25 days." After a while, Su Cheng said: " Once these conditions are fulfilled, you can handle all overseas affairs of films released by Shaw Brothers."

"Waibu?" Originally he was a little hesitant about the conditions proposed by Su Cheng, but when he heard this, it was Run Run Shaw who first reacted.Not to mention other films, "Modern Bodyguard" with the participation of the three Xu brothers is probably not bad at the box office.In addition to Hong Kong, Bay Island, and Southeast Asia, if the distribution is handed over to Shaw Brothers, I'm afraid it will make a lot of money!
After thinking about it, Run Run Shaw said, "For other cities, does Mr. Su want to share or buy out?"

His eyes narrowed slightly.Su Cheng didn't expect that Run Run Shaw was so courageous that he agreed to his request without thinking.With a smile on his face, he said softly: "Tengyue Entertainment is a newborn, so naturally I hope for a faster way to get the money back. I just hope that Mr. Shao will be merciful when the time comes!"

At present, Tengyue Entertainment Company cannot intervene in the distribution outside the city for a while.Rather than being caught between Shaw Brothers and Jiahe to offend people, it is better to release this bait in advance.

Run Run Shaw praised: "Thank you Mr. Su for your generosity!"

The matter was basically settled. While waiting for Wu Zheng from outside to come over to review the contract, Su Cheng asked abruptly: "Miss Fang, I wonder if I can ask Wireless to have two people fill in our Tengyue Entertainment Company? You should also know that my The new company is in dire need of staffing.”

"This..." Fang Yihua's face instantly became ugly.On the other hand, Run Run Shaw asked curiously, "I wonder which two people Mr. Su wants?"

"One is Guan Jinpeng, who is an assistant director. The other is Chen Jiashang, who does special effects for movies." Su Cheng said.

"Ah? This..." Hearing this, Fang Yihua was surprised.Two insignificant characters!
Run Run Shaw didn't think so, he quickly asked Fang Yat Hua to inquire about these two people, and the result was self-evident.Just a small character, nothing special.

Su Cheng was very calm about this.The rise of these two great directors is still a few years away.No matter how powerful Run Run Shaw is, he doesn't have the ability to predict!
In the end, they agreed and handed over the contract between the two to Su Cheng.

Of course, for this, Su Cheng also paid a symbolic price of 10 Hong Kong dollars.

Now that he came to TVB, Su Cheng naturally wanted to maximize his profits, and asked, "Miss Fang, can I transfer Chow Yun-fat's movie contract to our Tengyue Entertainment Company?"

"Huh? This..." Fang Yathua was very annoyed by Su Cheng's ability to make progress, but due to Run Run Shaw's warning before, he dared not take any action.

Seeing her like this, Su Cheng said flickeringly: "Miss Fang, as far as I know, the movies that Chow Yun-fat participated in, such as "Entering the Book", "O Girl", "Love and Desire", etc., have no reputation or box office. Very bad. On the contrary, the TV series "People in the Net" performed very well. In my opinion, there is no actor with poor acting skills who cannot be popular. Maybe you know that I am a screenwriter myself. I write scripts for a certain person. It's not too difficult. If he can become famous in one fell swoop in the movies, he will be even more popular if he is afraid of making TV dramas again. It's a win-win situation, what do you think?"

Originally, Su Cheng didn't have the idea of ​​signing Chow Yun-fat to their Tengyue Entertainment Company so early on.The film "The True Colors of a Hero" that can be rewarded by the system and the script "The Story of Hu Yue" that Zhang Jianting perfected required Chow Yun-fat to participate.

In addition, Su Cheng knew that in a year or two, Brother Fa would commit suicide because of a broken relationship.Although it was heard that it was because he couldn't think about it, but according to his understanding, he was afraid that the reason for being so impulsive was largely due to his unsatisfactory career, which was called "box office poison".Even if it explodes in the TV circle, so what?Comparable to Zheng Shaoqiu, Zhao Yazhi, Liu Songren, Wang Mingquan, Zheng Yuling, Mi Xue and others who are better than Evergreen?
Those people are the real pillars!Instead of Chow Yun-fat's occasional outbreak.

In addition, Fa Ge's upcoming TV series "Family Love" and "Shanghai Beach" can make him very popular.If after that, a movie starring him is made, I am afraid that the box office will increase a lot.

why not?

Before Fang Yihua nodded, Run Run Shaw directly said: "Then it's Mr. Yisu's! I hope we can cooperate more."

It's not that Run Run Shaw's foresight is lacking, but in his eyes, Chow Yun-fat's TV contract is still in their TVB, so there will be no disadvantages.Furthermore, in the past few years, the films produced by Shaw Brothers have not had a high box office.Instead of letting talents be buried, it's better to let Tengyue Entertainment help them!
No matter how high the box office is, how popular can it be?Once the TV viewing rate is high, then Run Run Shaw will be more cautious when he becomes the major shareholder of TVB.

No matter what Boss Shao thought, Su Cheng was ecstatic to see that he was able to win Chow Yun-fat's movie contract so easily!He smiled and said, "Then thank you Mr. Shao!"
