Hong Kong's new giants

Chapter 108 [Film Company Arrangements] (Ask for a monthly ticket!)

DreamWorks Movies is located in an office building in Kowloon Bay, which is where Lin Zuhui lived when he first crossed.

On Thursday, Lin Zuhui came to the 'DreamWorks' film office.

Although he doesn't pay much attention to DreamWorks, it doesn't mean he has completely forgotten about the company. After all, without Lin Zuhui's guidance, the word "DreamWorks" would be in vain.

On that day, Lin Zuhui needed to meet many people. The former secretary and current lover Cai Ning arranged the time in an orderly manner; let Lin Zuhui try to use one day as much as possible to convey the development plan of DreamWorks Films for the next year.

At [-]:[-] in the morning, Lin Zuhui received Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang from Golden Harvest.

Zou Wenhuai is eager to buy the overseas distribution of "The True Colors of Heroes". In addition to the fact that "The True Colors of Heroes" has achieved a box office of 25 million in 3300 days in Hong Kong, he also believes that Lin Zuhui said at the beginning that "The True Colors of Heroes" is popular in Japan, Southeast Asia, and South Korea. It will definitely be a big hit', after all, Lin Zuhui's legendary experience shows that he has a good vision, and of course he also has his own vision.

In the office, Pan Cheng and Cai Ning were companions, and Golden Harvest's Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang were guests.

"Boss Lin, according to the original agreement, I brought a check of 1000 million!" Zou Wenhuai would not regard Lin Zuhui as the owner of a small film company, but treat him as a "well-known business figure in Xiangjiang".

In terms of net worth, Lin Zuhui has surpassed Zou Wenhuai; in terms of fame, Lin Zuhui is in full swing.

Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "Don't worry, Boss Zou! I value integrity most in business, and we have clearly rejected Shaw Films' approach!"

Although Shaw Brothers leased Xiangjiang's theaters to Debao at an annual cost of 4000 million, others still have many theaters in Southeast Asia, and their strength exceeds that of Golden Harvest's ally Cathay Pacific.

However, in recent years, Golden Harvest has released a large number of films overseas, and its distribution advantages are no longer comparable; after all, the films of Cheng Long and Hong Fatty can achieve high box office every time in Japan and South Korea. Publishing capacity also matters.

Looking at Lin Zuhui's confident appearance, Zou Wenhuai seemed to see the glory he had when he had Li Xiaolong.

However, Zou Wenhuai felt sorry for Lin Zuhui, because Chow Yun Wah, who became popular in "A True Color of Heroes", did not sign a "binding contract" with DreamWorks.

Chow Run Wah has recently been called the favorite of the Hong Kong film industry, and his net worth has tripled, with a salary of more than 60 per film, and he still has to wait for Chow Run Wah's schedule.Even Golden Harvest is no exception, planning to find Zhou Runhua to shoot a movie, and is currently studying the script.

After chatting for a while, Lin Zuhui said again: "Boss Zou, we have a movie, and we also hope to release it in your theaters. Please arrange a date."

"A Chinese Ghost Story?"

"Not bad! This time we still choose two theaters to cooperate with, Golden Harvest and Debao. And this movie is also very suitable for overseas distribution. If the cooperation is happy, we will still choose to buy out the overseas film to you!"

"Boss Lin, you also know that our Golden Harvest theaters are actually very busy! However, we will try our best to arrange the theaters for you."

Lin Zuhui actually doesn't care, Debao's theater chain is looking for cooperation, but it would be more beneficial if Golden Harvest also agrees to arrange the theater chain; it's also because of Lin Zuhui's strong financial situation, plus Golden Harvest has to pay attention to 'DreamWorks', so he did it The two theaters are showing at the same time.

If you encounter other small film companies, you will have to be manipulated by these giants just in theaters.

As for the Golden Princess, it is going downhill, New Art City has begun to "exist in name only", and it will be disbanded directly in a few years.And Lin Zuhui swung a hoe to win over Xu Ke's studio and offended Princess Jin, so he didn't consider showing it in their theaters.

After sending Zou Wenhuai and others away, Lin Zuhui took a short rest in the office, and Pan Cheng sensiblely withdrew temporarily, leaving Cai Ning behind.

Lin Zuhui closed his eyes, only feeling a gust of fragrant wind, and then a pair of warm hands helped him massage.

"Boss, since you know that "The True Colors of Heroes" will be a hit, why don't you sign a long-term contract with Zhou Runhua?"

"No, as long as you pay, he will come to film for you! Why do we need to save the hundreds of thousands of salary!"

Actresses nowadays are actually unwilling to sign long-term contracts, that is, one filming and one settlement, unless they are newcomers who are debuting.Even if he is a director, he would not sign that kind of contract. The main reasons why Wu Yusen is willing to sign the contract for 5 films are: first, there is profit sharing; second, he is not restricted from making films of other companies; third, He is at the point where he has no drama director, much worse than Chow Yun-fat.

"Go to my place at night, boss?" Cai Ning put his head on Lin Zuhui's shoulder, and looked at Lin Zuhui with a blue breath.

Lin Zuhui opened his eyes and asked playfully, "You little secretary, you still want to arrange for me to choose the brand?"

Cai Ning boldly came from the back to the front, sat in Lin Zuhui's arms, and put his hands around Lin Zuhui's arms presumptuously.

At this time, Lin Zuhui's face was getting closer to Cai Ning's big lantern. The woman stood upright on purpose, and the white shirt seemed to be falling apart. Through the gap, one could even see the black lace inside.

"Pay attention to the influence!" Lin Zuhui swallowed his saliva, and severely reprimanded Cai Ning for his next move.

"Hee hee!" Cai Ning smiled and moved his body outward.

Then, Cai Ning said coquettishly: "I dare to arrange for you to choose the brand, but, I have one night a week!"

This woman is outstanding in knowledge, appearance, and career. There is absolutely no need to be wronged to be the third wife and fourth wife of a rich man. No matter how bad she is, she can be a good seed for a second wife, and then take the opportunity to replace her original wife.

However, knowing that Lin Zuhui has many women, she still flies to the fire, which makes Lin Zuhui suspect that she has "scheming".

Doubts are doubts, but Lin Zuhui thinks he is not Zhou Youwang, and as a woman, he can "beacon fire and play princes".His attitude towards women is very simple, it doesn't hurt to ask for a small amount of money, if you want your own career and family property, go ahead and dream!

"Okay, I'll take care of you, little fairy tonight!"

"Thank you Lord Ron!"

Soon, the two separated, and Cai Ning still knew how to measure.

After a while, Lin Zuhui met Wu Yusen and Zhou Runfa.

"Director Wu, Brother Fa, sit down!" Lin Zuhui got up and came to the sofa, inviting him warmly.

After everyone sat down, Cai Ning took out a document and handed it to the two of them.

Lin Zuhui said: "I'm calling you this time, and it's like this: the company plans not to shoot "The True Colors of Heroes 2" for now, and wait until the second half of next year to shoot; here's a script outline, shoot first."

Wu Yusen and Zhou Runhua picked up the script and looked at it. This is the outline of the script of "Prison Storm". Lin Zuhui felt that next year DreamWorks should at least cooperate with Zhou Runhua twice, so as to make more profits.

Lin Zuhui remembers that in his previous life, Chow Yun-wah became popular with "Little Ma" (1986), and then his career exploded in 1987. It seems that five of the top ten films in Hong Kong's box office are Zhou Runhua's movies, and "Prison Storm" is even more ranked. The second movie, the first seems to be Cheng Long's movie.

In this way, Dreamworks' two Chow Yun-wah films "The True Colors of Heroes 2" and "Prison in Prison" next year's total box office can be as high as 6000 million at least.

Zhou Runhua glanced at it for a while, and then said seriously: "I have no problem. Although many filmmakers have asked me to cooperate recently, I will definitely complete the filming invited by DreamWorks."

Lin Zuhui said happily: "Brother Fa is loyal! In this way, we will pay 150 million for the remuneration of the two films next year."

Zhou Runhua declined and said: "Now my salary level is only about 60 yuan, isn't DreamWorks giving too much! Moreover, the script of "Prison Storm" is very good, it is a movie with a very good theme, and I also very much like it." I like it."

He felt that it was DreamWorks who made him stand up, so he was very grateful!
"It's okay, just treat it as a box office reward for "True Tomorrow"!"

Wu Yusen naturally has nothing to do with it, he has a salary of 20 yuan for each film, plus 3% profit sharing; based on the current box office of "A Hero's True Colors", he can get a salary of 50 yuan; not only that, DreamWorks He also gave him a lot of benefits, including cars and assistants.

"Boss, this "Prison Storm" script is still the outline, could it be your friend's masterpiece again?" Wu Yusen asked suspiciously.

This bitch, whether he can speak or not, just pretend he doesn't know about this kind of thing!

Of course, he wouldn't want to understand - if Lin Zuhui came up with the outline of the script, then there's no need to hide anything.

"Well, that friend of mine is not a professional. Sometimes when his brain gets hot, he would come up with a script for me! He has a stubborn personality. I told him to complete it, but he ignored me and asked whether he wanted it or not! Of course Well, he's mainly doing academic research, and I don't want to bother him with such trivial matters!"

"That's it! Then he really has a lot of ideas!"

Lin Zuhui nodded and said, "Well, I heard that Nan Yan, the screenwriter of New Art City, is very strong. You can ask him to cooperate and let him work with you to complete the script. In short, everyone will not be troubled by money."

The original director was Lin Lingdong, and the screenwriter was Nan Yan (Lin Lingnan). The two were brothers; Lin Lingdong couldn't be hired anymore. He was a new director newly trained by New Art City, and he was also a director of profiteering aesthetics.

It just so happened that Wu Yusen has five film appointments, so let's invite him!
Although Lin Zuhui was very polite to the director and the leading actors, he actually didn't have much contact with them, let alone friendship, so after the two talked about things, Pan Cheng sent them away for him.

After finishing the two films for next year, Lin Zuhui will naturally not be satisfied with that achievement, so he decided to get the "Rich and Rich" series to be shot by DreamWorks Films.

There are four films in the "Rich and Rich" series, with an average box office of 2000 million Hong Kong dollars. The important thing is only small investment movies.

Lin Zuhui called Pan Cheng and Cai Ning, and the three sat on the sofa.

He took out the outline of "Wealth is Impressive". This movie is really just an outline. Lin Zuhui has only seen it once or twice, and he can barely remember the content; but it happens that the director and screenwriter is Gao Zhisen, and the leading actors are Dong Biao, Shen Dianxia, ​​Zeng Zhiwei People like Li Lizhen and Li Lizhen do remember.

"Here is the outline of the movie script, which is also the filming plan for next year! Manager Pan, you should first contact the director Gao Zhisen to see if he is interested in transferring to our company! The salary is not a problem, you can agree to him no matter what you ask, as long as you don't It's outrageous!"

Originally, in history, Gao Zhisen transferred from New Art City to Debao Films in 1986, which shows that he has a schedule; And other comedies are all directed by him.

Moreover, he is a screenwriter, actor, and host. As long as he is recruited, there is no need to worry about the "Rich and Rich" series of films; as for actors such as Dong Biao, Lydia Lydia, and Zeng Zhiwei, as long as they are paid, they can do whatever they want.

"Okay, I know!"

"Remember, this "Wealth is Overpowering" is one of our main shooting plans for next year, and we must pay enough attention to it."

"Yes, boss!"

Next year's three films can barely support the word "DreamWorks", and the scripts of DreamWorks are all provided by Lin Zuhui, and they will not accept external scripts for shooting, so they will take the "quality line".

The "True Colors of Heroes" series, "A Chinese Ghost Story" series, and the "Rich and Rich" series can all be filmed into a series of movies.
