Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 930 Showdown

"Does Mr. Lin have any other candidates?"

When He Guanchang said these words, even he himself felt that this was simply embarrassing Lin Daoqiu.

Actors who can rival Jackie Chan are not Chinese cabbages in the field, you can pick them up at will.

If it was so easy to find, he wouldn't have gone to Lin Daoqiu for help.

Lin Daoqiu just looked at He Guanchang with a smile, but he didn't say a word, and he knew that he didn't intend to answer He Guanchang's question just now.

And He Guanchang himself obviously realized that the question he just asked seemed a bit inappropriate.

"In that case, let Li Yuanba try it."

He Guanchang was already moved. After all, if he was asked to find an actor comparable to Jackie Chan, He Guanchang really couldn't think of anyone who could meet this requirement.

"He's already here, right next door."

After Lin Daoqiu finished speaking, he asked Sun Zhidong outside the door to call Li Yuanba in.

When Li Yuanba entered the door, he found that He Guanchang was also there. He seemed a little surprised.

However, after being stunned for a moment, Li Yuanba recovered immediately, and walked over honestly to say hello to the two of them.

"How old is Mr. Li this year?"

"It's almost 24."

He Guanchang didn't expect that Li Yuanba was so young. He thought that Li Yuanba was almost 30, but he was 5 years younger than Jackie Chan.

As a star that Golden Harvest intends to cultivate in the long run, Li Yuanba's age is definitely a big advantage.

"You must be curious why you were invited here."

Li Yuanba nodded. After being called here by Lin Daoqiu, he waited anxiously next door, not knowing why he was asked to come here.

"Mr. Lin thinks you are a good candidate. He hopes that Golden Harvest can sign you. Are you willing to come to Golden Harvest to develop?"

Li Yuanba originally thought that Lin Daoqiu had taken a fancy to him and wanted to sign him to New Oriental.

But he didn't expect that things were completely opposite to what he thought. For a moment, Li Yuanba's face was full of astonishment.

"Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan were developed in Golden Harvest before. If you go there now, Golden Harvest will definitely make you a new generation of Xiangjiang kung fu superstar."

For these two seniors, Li Yuanba still admires them very much, especially Bruce Lee, who is basically an international superstar, and his influence has not been weakened because of his death.

If Golden Harvest can really cultivate himself into a new generation of Xiangjiang kung fu superstar, Li Yuanba feels that he really has no reason to refuse.

And now he has no other choice except Jiahe, if he doesn't agree, he can only go back to the United States in desperation.

"If Golden Harvest thinks I can do it, of course I will."

Li Yuanba was no fool, he just nodded and agreed.

It seemed that He Guanchang was very satisfied with Li Yuanba's answer.

"You will go to Golden Harvest tomorrow to sign the contract. As for the matter between you and Wu Siyuan, we will help you settle it."

Li Yuanba knew that He Guanchang and Lin Daoqiu must have something to talk about, so he left the box sensibly.

Being able to join Jiahe is also a good ending for Li Yuanba.

Without Lin Daoqiu's intervention, he would have left Xiangjiang, wasting these very precious years in vain.

"Mr. Lin, although Li Yuanba's qualifications are good, if there is no good script, I'm afraid it will be very difficult to promote him."

After all, what He Guanchang wanted was for Lin Daoqiu to help Li Yuanba write a script so that he could become famous instantly.

Although it seems that He Guanchang's request is a bit overreaching, it is actually reasonable.

"Isn't Mr. He asking too much?"

Lin Daoqiu couldn't agree to what the other party said, otherwise, wouldn't he become Jiahe's cash machine.

"Mr. Lin, don't get me wrong. I just want to buy an insurance policy. When the time comes, Golden Harvest will be responsible for the production cost of this movie. Golden Harvest and New Oriental will split half of all proceeds."

He Guanchang would not let Lin Daoqiu be busy, he felt that Lin Daoqiu would not refuse such a condition.

"Then about the United Cinemas?"

Lin Daoqiu didn't rush to agree. The first thing he wanted to solve was the matter of the United Cinemas. After all, this was Lin Daoqiu's top priority now.

"Golden Harvest holds [-]% of the shares, the box office is split in half, and the boss of United Cinemas is Mr. Lin."

Lin Daoqiu was quite satisfied with this suggestion made by He Guanchang, after all, it was hardly different from his previous guess.

The most important thing now is to restrain Dibao Cinemas, so there is no way to let some profits go to Golden Harvest.

"In this case, I wish us a happy cooperation."

Lin Daoqiu directly agreed to He Guanchang's request, and the two stood up, then shook hands.

It seems that both He Guanchang and Lin Daoqiu have got what they want, but as for who earns more, only they know.

…………

"I didn't expect Jiahe to choose to cooperate with Lin Daoqiu. Are they crazy?"

Although Golden Harvest and New Oriental have formed a joint theater chain, no official announcement has been made yet.

However, Pan Disheng has already received news from Golden Harvest, and this matter is already a certainty, and it will not be changed.

"Who would have thought that Lin Daoqiu would find an actor comparable to Jackie Chan, and then give him to Golden Harvest."

Cen Jianxun shook his head while talking, it seemed that he also had a very helpless expression.

Originally, before this, they all agreed that the only partner that Golden Harvest could choose to cooperate with was Dibao.

But I didn't expect that Golden Harvest and New Oriental fought so fiercely before, and since they came together in a blink of an eye, it can be said that many people's glasses were broken.

"Golden Harvest probably thinks that Mr. Lin will win in the end, so they bet on New Oriental."

Sammo Hung sees things from a different angle than Disheng Pan and Jianxun Cen. If it weren't for his desire to be the boss, Sammo Hung would not have chosen to leave New Oriental and switch to Dibao.

"Mr. Zou's decision will definitely make him regret, because the final victory must be on Di Bao's side."

Pan Disheng naturally couldn't say anything that would affect morale at this time, and now they can be said to be strong and strong. As long as they maintain this momentum, they will still have a chance to pull Jiahe over.

So Pan Disheng didn't look very worried, and he even looked confident.

But in fact, Pan Disheng is also very clear in his heart that tomorrow's Spring Festival stall is not a small hurdle for them, but as long as they pass it, then Di Bao will be able to compete with New Oriental and Jiahe in the future.
