Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 1757 What to fight with?

After watching the "1992" trailer, the reporters at the scene felt that there were too many news materials today.

Whether it is the establishment of New Oriental Pictures, the establishment of Asian theaters, or the question of "1992", they really don't know which one to ask first.

However, Lin Daoqiu seemed unwilling to give them a chance to breathe, and then played several trailers of similar concept movies one after another.

Although these trailers are only at the concept stage, the effect that comes out makes people very excited after watching it.

It is even agreed that these will be the next films that New Oriental Pictures will produce.

"Thank you everyone. Most of these films are concept films launched by New Oriental Pictures. If there is a chance, I hope that these films will be able to meet with you at that time. Now we will start the questioning session."

Finally, it was time to ask questions, which overwhelmed the reporters on the scene.

After Lin Daoqiu said this, the reporters at the scene began to raise their hands enthusiastically, and everyone wanted to be the first to ask questions.

After all, no matter which one of these news is considered exclusive news, as long as it is the first to be reported, it will definitely cause a huge sensation at that time.

Because of this, there was some commotion at the scene.

For such a situation, Lin Daoqiu had expected it a long time ago, so dozens of security guards were arranged at the scene to maintain order.

It is precisely because of this that the press conference can go on smoothly.

On the night when the press conference ended, many stories made headlines in the South China Evening Post that night.

It describes in detail what Lin Daoqiu announced at the press conference, as well as some introductions to "1992" and those concept films.

Even on the second day, the special effects blockbuster battle between the two Hong Kong local giants, "The Return of the Great Sage" and "Mad Man", kicked off.

However, the news of the establishment of New Oriental Films and the news revealed by Lin Daoqiu at the press conference became mainstream news in the entertainment news newspapers that day.

But on this day, the main task of New Oriental and United Cinemas is to hold a grand premiere for their own films.

For United Cinemas, the premiere of "Mad Man" was held at Haiyun Cinema.

Zou Wenhuai, Pan Disheng, Lin Jianyue and others are already waiting to appear in a nearby hotel, and they will also accept a brief interview with reporters later.

However, compared to before, the confidence of Zou Wenhuai and Pan Disheng seems to be a little different, all because of Lin Daoqiu's press conference yesterday.

Although he already knew that Lin Daoqiu had those companies in his hands, if he really opened the New Oriental Cinemas to the major film markets in Asia, what would the United Cinemas have to fight him by then?

"I don't think Lin Daoqiu's plan for the Asian theater network may be really successful in the end."

Lin Jianyue felt that the people around him were a little depressed because of yesterday's news, people like Pan Disheng and Zou Wenhuai also felt somewhat unconcealable worries.

At this time, he must find a way to stabilize their confidence. If possible, it is best to improve the morale within the United Theater.

"Why did Mr. Lin say such a thing?"

Zou Wenhuai didn't understand why Lin Jianyue said that?With Lin Daoqiu's strength, opening Asian theaters within five years is really not bragging, but it is very likely to be realized.

Lin Jianyue answered Zou Wenhuai's question with a smile.

"It's actually very simple. In the major film markets in Asia, the situation of Neon and Hanguo is quite special. It is not so difficult for Lin Daoqiu to open theaters in these two places."

Neon has established film companies such as Dongbao. Lin Jianyue believes that with the conservative thinking of Neon people, it is unlikely that they will allow external funds to open up their territory.

As for Han Country, let alone, the situation over there is more complicated than that of Neon.

If you analyze it carefully, Lin Daoqiu may have a higher chance of success in Neon than opening theaters in Han Country.

If Lin Daoqiu's Asian theater chain does not have the two markets of Neon and Hanguo by then, even if it is integrated into other regions by him, it will not threaten the joint theater chain too much.

"Mr. Lin is right, and I heard that Dongbao has withdrawn its capital from "1992" recently. It seems that the relationship between Lin Daoqiu and Dongbao has cracked."

Pan Disheng only knew that Dongbao withdrew its capital from "1992", but he didn't know the specific situation inside.

But even so, according to this analysis, there must be a big problem between Dongbao and Lin Daoqiu, otherwise, how could they suddenly withdraw their capital?
"Looking at it this way, Lin Daoqiu's Asian theater chain plan is far less threatening than we imagined, which is a good thing."

Cen Jianxun quickly echoed what Pan Disheng said. As the general manager of the United Cinemas, he naturally did not want the United Cinemas to suffer too much pressure.

Regarding what Lin Jianyue and Pan Disheng said just now, Zou Wenhuai listened and nodded, but in his heart, he was a little disapproving of what these two people said just now.

On the way to the premiere, Zou Wenhuai chatted with He Guanchang in the car about the conversation just now.

"It's not a big problem if it's just the Asian theater chain. Lin Daoqiu's most powerful weapon is the movies. If he can't surpass him in movies, the rest can only be empty talk."

Zou Wenhuai saw the core of the problem at a glance.

Whether it's New Oriental Pictures or Asian theaters, Lin Daoqiu's most reliable weapon is the movies he produces.

If they can defeat Lin Daoqiu in the movie, then they will have a chance to continue fighting each other.

But if there is no way to beat Lin Daoqiu in the film, then with the pressure of the Asian theaters, everyone in the Xiangjiang Film Market will definitely vote under Lin Daoqiu's command. At that time, their joint theater chain will definitely be doomed.

"By the way, how did you think about the matter Lin Jianyue proposed?"

What He Guanchang was talking about was Lin Jianyue's proposal to let actors choose sides, so that they could only choose one side between New Oriental and United Cinemas.

Regarding this question, Zou Wenhuai shook his head directly.

If he had thought about doing it according to Lin Jianyue's words, after all, this would put some pressure on Lin Daoqiu.

But now that Lin Daoqiu has suddenly launched the strategy of the Asian theater chain, and at this time exerts extreme pressure on the opponent, Zou Wenhuai is worried that they will be the ones who will be pressured by then.

"We don't have the capital to exert extreme pressure on Lin Daoqiu now, so let's let this matter go, otherwise we may be forced to die."
