Reborn Hong Kong's Hidden Behind the Scenes

Chapter 69 Matchmaking
When Sammo Hung left, Su Chengcheng was looking at the document Wu Zheng gave him.

Originally, his idea was to follow the method of buying theaters in Hong Kong, slowly buy shops in Hollywood, and then decorate them as theaters.But through Jiang Zhiqiang's narration, he realized that if he did that, even if he had enough money, it would take at least 500 years of deliberation until the hair channel was perfected and the scale of 2 theaters exceeded.

Furthermore, unlike Xiangjiang, the base salary of the employees there is also high, and if the film is not released, the loss will be too great.

After some discussion, Su Cheng asked Wu Zheng to find someone to go there to investigate.

Needless to say, I found out that there are two companies that have the intention to sell.A United Artists film company founded by comedy master Chaplin.One is the well-known [-]th Century Fox Film Company.

The current operation of Luenmei is facing bankruptcy and urgently needs capital injection.As for Twentieth Century Fox Films, although it has filmed "Alien" in the past few years, it has insufficient liquidity and is heavily in debt.

In contrast, the United Artists Film Company is not that big, and if they want to acquire all of them, it will be less than 1 million US dollars, and Su Cheng doesn't plan to want their company's directors, actors, and part of the film library.In this way, the estimated price is only within 5000 million US dollars.

Twentieth Century Fox is different, asking for nearly 6 million US dollars.As long as the theater and distribution, it also needs 1.5 million US dollars.

A total of 2 million US dollars, more than 10 billion Hong Kong dollars, is really unaffordable for the current Tengyue Entertainment Company!
However, 300th Century Fox is staring at too many people, Su Cheng's idea is to win United Artists first.At least, there are more than [-] theaters under it.Not too little.

Thinking of this, he called Wu Zheng directly and said, "Angkor, start contacting United Artists, and buy it as soon as possible!"

Hearing this, Wu Zheng was stunned and said, "Ah Cheng, do you have that much money?"

Su Cheng said with a smile: "I don't want anything else, I just need their theaters and distribution. It won't exceed 5000 million US dollars. If you don't have enough money, you can use Tengyue TV Station and Tengyue Cinemas as a mortgage. The speed must be fast!"

"I see, I'll go there in person tomorrow!" Wu Zheng said solemnly.

"Then trouble Angkor!"

Hanging up the phone, Su Cheng smiled.The reason why he didn't go in person was because he wanted to put the theater under Wu Zheng's name. After all, Hollywood has strict "anti-monopoly laws".The theater chain and the film production company cannot be linked together.

This is also a good thing, to facilitate negotiations.

After all, buying it is just for distribution!

Now that there are theaters, the film company can't be late.Su Cheng called Liang Shuyi and Shi Nansheng again.

After a while, the two arrived.

Looking at them, Su Cheng said bluntly: "I have already sent people to Hollywood to buy theaters. This is the second contact. If there is no accident, the delivery will be completed within three months. I need you to do it. , is to start preparing for our branch over there. As for where to locate, you two should discuss. Especially Shi Nansheng, you will be the general manager of the branch over there for at least two years. I hope you can find someone It's a good location, but buy it, renovate it, and wait for the crew to arrive later."

Hearing this, Liang Shuyi was not surprised at all, but Shi Nansheng was quite happy. She didn't expect the boss to move so fast?Feeling a little overwhelmed.Immediately promised: "Yes, boss! I will choose the place carefully!"

After she left, Su Cheng said to Liang Shuyi: "Do you think Wang Jing can take on the heavy responsibility?"

Liang Shuyi said with a serious tone: "Boss, no matter whether he can do it or not, this time, the director must be his. Otherwise, there will be problems within the company."

This is also where Su Cheng is most helpless.Speaking of which, Du Qifeng's ability is even higher than that of Wang Jing, what a pity!This fat man doesn't make much progress. It's been so long, and he still can't reach his satisfaction level. He can really be anxious to death!
Shaking his head, Su Cheng said: "Let's wait and see! It will take a month for the branch to be completed. Take advantage of this time and let him study hard. Otherwise, he will only be responsible for going to Hollywood. It's a play."

……

"Five Lucky Stars" was released, and the box office reached 68 Hong Kong dollars on the first day.However, on the second day, the box office soared to 93 Hong Kong dollars.

At this time, "The Prodigal Boy" has already broken the box office of 500 million Hong Kong dollars, and it is hoped that the box office will eventually break through [-] million Hong Kong dollars.

Yuen Biao was featured in both films, which suddenly made his reputation soar.

At this time, "Double Dragons Going to Sea" and "The Brave Double Cannon" directed by Feng Suifan had just finished filming, and "The Young Master Hollow" directed by Liu Jiarong had completed the post-production, waiting to arrange the release issue.As for "The Royal Sister", the filming has not yet been completed. Xu Anhua's "The Story of Hu Yue" is not known where it is going.

The reason why these works were prepared almost at the same time, but because many actors took turns filming in the major crews, some were fast and some were slow.This point was Su Cheng's negligence.

However, since the Tengyue TV station was acquired, they can find more and more actors, and they are not afraid that they cannot find suitable actors to participate in the performance.

On this day, Su Cheng finally finished the novel "Myth". Instead of handing it over to Hu Tianlun for serialization immediately, he found Chow Yun-fat and Chen Yulian.

After asking them to sit down, Su Cheng said frankly: "Brother Fa, our company has already set up in Hollywood, and in about two or three months, you will join the team to shoot the second blockbuster we are planning."

After a pause, he continued, "I wonder what plans you and Sister Lian have for the future?"

"Ah! Boss..." In an instant, Chow Yun-fat and Chen Yulian's expressions became quite ugly, thinking that the company wanted to prevent them from dating.

After waving his hand, Su Cheng smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm not trying to break you up, but I want you two to get married as soon as possible. Once I have a family, I can safely send Brother Fa to Hollywood to make a movie. Otherwise, Seriously, I dare not!"

Long-distance relationships are scary things.Not to mention how deep the relationship is, with the geographical issue, they will gradually become "strangers".This is what Su Cheng didn't want.Furthermore, he has very good feelings for Chen Yulian, and hopes that the two of them can "cherish each other" instead of throwing her away halfway.

As soon as the word "marriage" came out, Chen Yulian was nervous at first, and then very excited.On the contrary, Chow Yun-fat was a little at a loss.

Seeing his appearance, Su Cheng smiled and said, "What? Brother Fa, you are the famous Xu Wenqiang! Can't you hold back this idea?"

Chow Yun Fat was even more embarrassed.

Instead of joking, Su Cheng asked, "Are you willing to get married?"

Chen Yulian glanced at Su Cheng, then at Chow Yun-fat, and said softly, "I am willing!"

Chow Yun-fat also nodded and said, "Me too!"

Satisfied, Su Cheng let them go out, sat quietly for a while, and then took Liu Qing to Chow Yun-fat's house.

Su Cheng felt very sorry for the ending of the two people in the previous life.Now that there is this opportunity, he should also facilitate it!First of all, Chen Yulian is really kind.Secondly, he didn't want Chow Yun-fat to commit suicide again.

Su Chengcheng had already inquired about Chow Yun-fat's home a long time ago.When Liu Qing called the door open, he took out a photo with Chow Yun-fat, and said with a smile, "Hello, Aunt Chen, I'm Brother Fa's friend, you can call me Ah Cheng."

"Aunt Chen, can I go in and talk?"

"Ah! Come, come in and sit!"

After putting down the things he bought, Liu Qing went out. Besides Chen Lifang, there was one of his daughters, Zhou Congling, in the house.She is Chow Yun Fat's older sister.

"Ah Cheng, what is this?" Chen Lifang asked suspiciously.

Looking at the 58-year-old woman in front of him, Su Chengzhi said, "Aunt Chen, do you know that Brother Fa has a girlfriend?"

"I know! That child has come to the house several times!" Chen Lifang said.

Hearing this, Su Cheng continued: "Then what do you think of her? Is it suitable to be with Brother Fa?"

Before Chen Lifang could speak, Zhou Congling who was on the side interrupted, "I don't know what this gentleman means?"

Su Cheng then officially introduced: "Aunt Chen, big sister, hello, besides being a friend of Brother Fa, I am also the boss of Tengyue Entertainment Company, Su Cheng!"

After they digested the information, Su Chengyan said: "That's right, our company is going to open a branch in Hollywood. Brother Fa is currently our main male artist. Once we go there, it will take two or three months to get there Returning to Hong Kong once. Most of the time, I was afraid for about half a year. And you all know that he and Chen Yulian are boyfriend and girlfriend. After our discussion, we hope that they can get married as soon as possible under the condition that their relationship is strong and the family does not object. When a man has a family, he can devote more attention to his career. It is good for him and for us. What do you think?"

Hearing this, Zhou Congling was a little surprised. Does the current company boss still care about the marriage of employees?On the contrary, Chen Lifang said with some hesitation: "Is this really necessary?"

Nodding his head, Su Cheng said with a smile: "Aunt Chen, I actually know a little about your family's situation. Over the years, neither you, Brother Fa, nor eldest sister have had a good life. Brother Fa himself From wanting to make money at the beginning, to now liking to be an actor, and has good qualifications. The future is unpredictable. I hope he can become more and more famous. Relatively, I also hope that the relationship can be complete and happy. Of course, The support of the family is indispensable, especially you, Aunt Chen. Brother Fa respects you, loves you, and is even more obedient."

"Ah Fa asked you to come?" Chen Lifang asked.

"What do you think?" Su Cheng smiled.

Zhou Congling on the side said: "This is definitely not Ah Fa's intention. If he wants to say it, he will go home and say it himself."

These words immediately dispelled Chen Lifang's worries.

However, regarding the matter of her son's marriage, she hesitated after looking at the home in front of her.

Glancing at Chen Lifang, Su Cheng smiled and said, "If Aunt Chen thinks she wants to give Fa Ge's family a good wedding house, don't worry."

As he said that, he handed her the title certificate of a luxury house that had already been transferred, and said, "This is the sincerity of our company."

Chen Lifang's mother and daughter were very surprised after watching it.Not only is the house big, but the owner of the property still has Chen Lifang's name written on it, not Chow Yun-fat.

At this time, Su Cheng said: "Our company has a specific plan for Fa Ge's future development. Once it is completed, the bonus alone will buy this house in about a year. Of course, this belongs to our respect for their newlyweds. Gift."

By the way, he also took out a passbook and said, "There is this one, which can change the life of the Zhou family a little bit."

Inside is an account opened in the name of Chen Lifang, not many, with 500 million Hong Kong dollars.

The string of numbers almost dazzled their eyes.Chen Lifang declined, "We don't need this!"

Su Cheng said with a smile: "Aunt Chen, this is opened in your name and can only be handed over to you. Besides, my eldest sister must have heard of a celebrity named Jackie Chan! When Golden Harvest signed him, the signing fee was 400 yuan. How much. I think Fa Ge has more potential and is worth the price. What do you think?"

"I can't accept it!" Chen Lifang was still refusing, but Zhou Congling said, "Mom, if you don't want it, it proves that Ah Fa is inferior!"

The boss personally went out and sent it out, can you not pick it up?As for those who still haven't paid it back, that boy Chow Yun-fat will take care of it when the time comes. Zhou Congling is very thoughtful.

After finishing this matter, Su Cheng asked: "Aunt Chen, eldest sister, then the matter is settled, and we will start preparing for their marriage."

"Then I will trouble you!" Chen Lifang said.

"It's what we should do!"

After finishing speaking, he stopped staying and turned around. Su Chengcheng left Zhou's house.After he left, Zhou's mother and daughter looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

On the way back, Su Cheng kept thinking about Zhou's mother, Chen Lifang.Judging from the current situation, her impression of Chen Yulian is neither too good nor too bad.The reason for the turbulent situation in the previous life is that there may be conflicts in the next year or two, because Chen Yulian sincerely believes that in Chow Yun-fat's eyes, career is more important than her.

In order not to delay his future, he could only leave sadly.

As for the current situation, first of all, Tengyue Entertainment will support Chow Yun-fat well without any worries.Furthermore, their relationship is very good, and no major conflicts have emerged yet.

Very fulfilling!

And this timing is well grasped!
Seeing Su Cheng's smile, Liu Qing asked curiously, "Is it a good feeling to make a marriage happen?"

"Well, very good! What? You want it too?"

"No, no, no, I don't have anyone I like yet!" Liu Qing quickly waved his hand.

Smiling and ignoring him no more, Su Cheng narrowed his eyes slightly and fell asleep.
