Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 1123 Competition for Overseas Agency Rights

For these filmmakers here, it is only a dream to sell their films to Hollywood and earn US dollars like Lin Daoqiu.

The most practical situation for them is to target the Asian market, especially the Taiwan and Southeast Asian markets are their big ticket warehouses.

There is another advantage of cooperating with Xiangjiang Cinemas before, that is, you don’t have to worry about channel problems in the Asian market, and Lin Daoqiu will help you solve these problems.

Now Liao Junhao suddenly appeared and said that he wanted to cooperate with everyone, it depends on how much sincerity he can show.

If they have enough sincerity and strength, maybe they will consider transferring from New Oriental to cooperate with Liao Junhao.

"I believe everyone already knows that my father is Liao Kuncheng, who runs the film and television industry in Baodao. He is more or less well-known. Knowing that Junhao is going to meet the elders today, my father specially asked me to bring a word."

Everyone looked at Liao Junhao without saying a word, and everyone wanted to know what kind of "benefits" he had brought.

"In the future, as long as it is the overseas distribution rights represented by Chenggong Film Company, after deducting all expenses, we will get [-]%, and the remaining [-]% will go to the film producer."

A [-]-[-] split was almost impossible before this. When Xiangjiang Cinemas was acting as an agent, they could only get [-]% of the split. Even if it was New Art City, they could only get [-]% of the split.

Now Liao Junhao just added [-]% to them with one word, this temptation is really big enough.

It's no wonder that many people have moved to cooperate with Liao Junhao after listening to it.

"I believe everyone has heard Mr. Liao's words. The income is [-]% more than before. Where can I find such a good thing? Do you want to get [-]% as before?"

It has to be said that Liao Junhao's [-]-[-] split really moved many people.

After all, some of the directors and actors present had never thought of selling the film to Hollywood, and it was enough for them to enjoy it if it could be shown in Asia.

And so far, only Lin Daoqiu's films produced by New Oriental can be released in Hollywood, and other films are only in Asia.

If this is the case, it is better to cooperate with Liao Junhao to get more share, and now the theater is not surnamed Lin, so there is no need to worry that there will be no place for the film to be released after the film is finished.

"We still need to think about this matter..."

"That's right, Mr. Liao's suggestion is very good, but it may not be practical for us to settle on it for a while."

Liao Junhao still kept smiling, because he believed that the sharing plan he proposed would definitely be better than other film companies.

But as for whether the money they will get is really [-]% by then, I am afraid that only Liao Junhao and the others will know.

…………

"Liao Kuncheng and the others are quite good at finding time to trouble me."

After Maijia and the others attended Sammo Hung's dinner, they came to Lin Daoqiu the next day and told him everything about the dinner.

Lin Daoqiu didn't expect Liao Kuncheng and the others to be so generous, giving up [-]% of the profits.

But on the other hand, he is also speculating that Liao Junhao may not be telling the truth, but just picking up nice things to say.

After all, his sentence removes all expenses, and there can be a big fuss here.

But what is certain is that at the very beginning, Liao Junhao and the others would definitely give some sweetness, otherwise how would they attract more people to cooperate with them.

"Liao Junhao's trick is to monopolize the overseas agency and distribution rights of Xiangjiang Films. If he really wants to do it, I am worried that it will affect New Oriental at that time."

As the general manager of New Oriental, Li Maowen has to worry about this.

After all, the overseas agency rights can bring New Oriental a lot of benefits every year.

If it is really taken away by Liao Junhao at that time, it will be more or less a big blow to New Oriental.

"It doesn't matter, anyway, we don't have any theaters in our hands now, so if they want to cooperate with Liao Junhao, they will be left to them."

Now that he no longer has a theater chain in his hand, Lin Daoqiu can't support so many people. He plans to let out some of the original New Oriental actors, leaving only the most core people.

The first thing Lin Daoqiu needs to solve now is New Oriental's next schedule. This matter needs to be discussed with Uncle Six.

If the sixth uncle wants to deal with him exclusively during the theater schedule, then Lin Daoqiu doesn't mind letting Wireless have a good taste of his power.

"Everyone, don't worry, everything is business as usual. I will have a good discussion with Uncle Liu about the theater schedule. Even if New Oriental loses its theater chain, it will not let mermaid go."

For this, Lin Daoqiu is very confident, unless the sixth uncle wants to fight him to the death, then Lin Daoqiu doesn't mind fighting with him.

For Lin Daoqiu's words, Mai Jia and others are still very convinced. After all, from before to now, Lin Daoqiu really has not lost to others.

This time, if Uncle Six hadn't come up with such a trick, now Xiangjiang's film market has been unified by Lin Daoqiu.

After Mai Jia and others left, Lin Daoqiu left Li Maowen alone.

"New Oriental has no theaters, and it is impossible for the Shaw Brothers actors to stay. You go and have a chat with them. If you want to stay in New Oriental, you can, but there will definitely not be as many plays as before. If you go out to receive For a play, you have to draw [-]%."

Lin Daoqiu said this as if he was chasing others in disguise, but the problem now is that he has to do so.

Without the theater chain, Lin Daoqiu couldn't keep spending money to make those movies, so he could only let these actors go out to find jobs by themselves, either staying in Xiangjiang or going to Baodao.

"I understand Mr. Lin. I will communicate with them about this matter. I believe they should also understand Mr. Lin's situation."

At this moment, Lin Daoqiu suddenly remembered something. This should be the second time that Li Maowen was kicked out from the position of general manager of Xiangjiang Cinemas.

"Maowen, I have really wronged you. This is the second time you have been kicked out of the position of general manager of Xiangjiang Cinemas."

"Mr. Lin was joking. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have the opportunity to take this position. I'm already very satisfied to hold the position of general manager of New Oriental. As for the position of Xiangjiang Cinemas, let whoever likes it sit, and... …I am sure I will go back in the future.”

When Li Maowen said this, his eyes were unusually firm. It seemed that he felt that New Oriental's loss was only a temporary thing. In a few years, Lin Daoqiu would definitely take Xiangjiang Cinemas back again.

Lin Daoqiu nodded with a smile. Although he didn't say anything, Li Maowen could tell from Lin Daoqiu's expression that he agreed with what he said.
