1993 Glamour at a Glance

Chapter 148 An Extremely Destructive Product (seeking a monthly pass)

The young man hissed, and then said excitedly, "Uncle Chen, ask big brother for a high price!"

A person who loses more than 400 million US dollars for two days without blinking an eye, so why not kill him hard?
Chen Qiang smiled silently, but didn't answer.

He curiously asked the front surname Le: "Amin, what kind of business do you want to discuss with your friend?"

"It's related to movies, TV dramas and music. It's a big tone. I know that I have a good relationship with each company. I want me to help him get in touch with him." Yue Huimin said after a pause, "I was asked to help He made a match, found Philips in Japan and a company in the United States, and imported a lot of parts, I don’t know what kind of business they are doing.”

Le Huimin is a "idleman" in Xiangdao.Although I don't have any actual business that I run, I have many friends and their levels are not low.

The young people he brought out were "commenting" there again: "These nouveau riche in the mainland seem to do something as soon as they hear what others say to make money. It is easy to deceive."

Le Huimin raised his face and gave him a sideways glance: "Stop the car."

The driver stopped the car on the side of the road, and Le Huimin said coldly, "Tai, get out of the car and go back by yourself."

"... Uncle Le, what's the matter?"

Le Huimin just stared at him coldly.

The young man felt cold all over, and dared not say another word, opened the car door from Cheng Long's side, and stood alone by the road in Guangdong Province, watching the car drive away without hesitation.

Which sentence is wrong?

In the car, Chen Qiang smoothed things over: "Amin, young man, what do you care about with him?"

"It's better for me to teach him than others to teach him in the future." Le Huimin laughed again, "Uncle Chen, thank you for taking Aaron for a trip this time."

"Where is it, thank you for your care."

One is about 40 years old, the other is over 40, and the atmosphere of each other is much more harmonious.

Cheng Long knew that there were many things before, and Chen Qiang advised him not to stand out, and then find someone to make peace with.This Uncle Le is someone who can help with peace in Xiangdao.

The nephew he wanted to take out to experience was kicked out of the car, which meant that the guy had narrowed his way in Xiangdao.

Although following Le Huimin he would not be hungry after all, but he was so irritable the first time he went out, so he probably won't be valued by Le Huimin again.

The three of them went all the way to the White Swan Hotel, and took a mobile phone to confirm where they were, and they saw four people waiting there as soon as they got out of the elevator.

A bald head, a 30-year-old man in a suit, a tall and handsome young man, and a...

Cheng Long's eyes lit up, but he only smiled.

"Mr. Li, long time no see! Haven't been to Xiangdao for a long time?" Le Huimin warmly greeted Li Ru, and then introduced Chen Qiang.

Cheng Long needs no introduction, since he entered the hotel just now, he has attracted a lot of attention.

A group of people went directly to the dining room and sat down on the sofa on one side of the room.

"Two things, which one to talk about first?" Li Ru turned his head and asked Song Yang, "You are here to host!"

This action made both Le Huimin and Chen Qiang a little puzzled.

Li Ru just introduced Song Yang and Sun Ruigen while walking. They knew that this young man was the boss of an advertising company.

Could it be that Sun Ruigen, the marketing manager of the company in Guangdong Province, came to talk about the spokesperson?

What is the background of this young man?
"I'm a guest from afar, let's have a cup of tea first." Song Yang looked at Cheng Long with a smile, "Mr. Cheng, I grew up watching your movies."

"...President Song is young and promising." Cheng Long was not sure how old he was, but he was indeed 40 years old.

How to say this makes people feel strange and uncomfortable, as if they are already very old.

"It's not young and promising, it's all luck." Song Yang smiled politely, "Chairman Chen, you came here in person, let us look forward to the smooth completion of this cooperation. The market in the mainland is huge, and Xiangdao is now In the current situation, Chairman Chen still has the heart to pave the way for Brother Cheng Long and other artists in the Mainland, I admire you very much!"

"...President Song is absurd. Cooperation, of course we have a chance to talk about it."

Yue Huimin glanced at Li Ru, and asked with a smile, "Mr. Song also understands the current situation in Xiangdao?"

"It's normal for some people to worry. The changes that may be brought about by major events that are difficult to control are not what most people like. Mr. Le, Brother Li said that this time he is looking for you to settle accounts. I will say things like foreign exchange speculation. No one can blame the problem."

"Hey kid, I just love my money!" Li Ru stared, "But Brother Le, if you help me earn my money back, you have a duty to do so!"

Yue Huimin shook his head helplessly and smiled: "I'm here, what do you think?"

He looked at Song Yang again.

Even if he is not a whole generation away from Li Ru, it's about the same, right?Brother Li, Brother Li, the name is very close.

During the process of exchanging pleasantries and getting closer, Sun Ruigen and Yao Peihua kept silent.

Song Yang chatted with them about Xiangdao's film and television dramas and music, also talked about Xiangdao's still rising property market, and even talked about Xiangdao's current reform of direct election of seats.

Le Huimin and Chen Qiang were puzzled, and even Li Ru looked at Song Yang in amazement.

How the hell do you know that?

Yue Huimin and Chen Qiang confirmed one thing: this young man really knows the situation in Xiangdao quite well.

And it's really talkative.

How can a young man of this age have such a wide range of knowledge?Could it be the children cultivated by some big families in the Mainland?
After talking for a long time, Song Yang finally got to the point: "Xiangdao's entertainment industry is now famous all over the world, but the money earned in the mainland is still very little. Movies, TV, albums, the people in the mainland don't have much money now , There is still too much demand for piracy. As for other commercial cooperation with artists, mainland companies are not familiar enough with this set. Mr. Le, Chairman Chen, and Brother Li said it is two things, but in my opinion it is actually one thing. "

"I would like to hear more about it." Le Huimin didn't change his expression, appearing very humble.

"I am an advertiser. If a company wants to develop, it cannot do without publicity. The cooperation between Xiangdao artists and mainland companies is a win-win situation. Artists come forward to help companies promote, but in fact they also promote the artists themselves. People who can buy genuine ones are now Not many, but this channel and rules still have to be established." Song Yang said some nonsense, and then said, "This time, I just want to establish a relationship with friends in Xiangdao, and do one thing: make a case, Let Hong Kong Island’s entertainment industry earn more money from the mainland, and mainland companies can develop better through Hong Kong Island’s entertainment industry.”

Both Yue Huimin and Chen Qiang just smiled and nodded.

The words are very empty, after all, we still have to listen to the specific content of the cooperation.

Song Yang said: "Brother Cheng Long's endorsement, Xiaobawang entrusted me with full authority. Regarding the first endorsement cooperation in the Mainland, what is the psychological expectation of President Chen for the price, just be blunt."

Chen Qiang smiled and said: "Aaron is going to make a film this year, and we have already discussed the distribution cooperation in the United States in advance. Mr. Song has chosen a good time. He cooperated with the first endorsement in the Mainland. With Aaron in Xiangdao's current net worth cannot be lower than 300 million yuan a year."

Listening to what he said was not Xiangdao coins, Song Yang knew that he intended to break into the mainland market.

He smiled and nodded first, and then said: "Mr. Le, there is another cooperation, which is related to the next generation of video tapes."

Hearing this, Yao Peihua took out the CD from his bag and handed it over, and Song Yang handed it over to them: "The mainland has produced the world's first VCD player, CD-ROM, and some people in the Xiangdao circle have already heard about it. Let's go. This kind of machine has too many advantages over VCRs. Now, Sony, Samsung, Philips...many companies are all preparing to produce this kind of machines to replace VCRs.”

For a moment, Le Huimin didn't understand what he was going to say.

Song Yang then said: "I estimate that within three years, this kind of machine will be popularized in the mainland and enter thousands of households. On the one hand, the cost of the machine is getting lower and lower, and the competition is fierce. On the other hand, the income of mainland families It is also getting higher and higher. Then a situation will soon be formed, and mainlanders will not go to movie theaters. Piracy of CDs is easier and cheaper. If the entertainment industry in Xiangdao does not prepare in advance in this field, then I am afraid that the money earned from the mainland will become less and less.”

He is telling the truth, VCD player is indeed such a destructive product.

It not only made the movie theater business in Huaguo slowly worsen in the 90s, but also made Xiangdao's originally thriving movie industry go downhill in a disguised way.

The cost of optical discs is too low, and pirated discs can be bought at almost the price of cabbage, and color TVs are getting bigger and bigger, so why go to the cinema?
Although the Xiangdao people are much richer than those in the mainland, they are still unavoidable.

Last year and the year before last should have been the pinnacle of Xiangdao's film and television industry.The box office of the movie exceeded 10 billion Hong Kong coins, and the video tape also brought in nearly 20 billion in revenue.

But only five or six years later, these two figures have dropped to only [-] to [-]% of the previous figures.

Chen Qiang examined this thing with a stern expression.

There are mainly several sources of income for artists: remuneration, sales share of works, and commercial cooperation.

The rampant pirated video tapes have caused incalculable losses to various film and television companies in Xiangdao.The business of these pirated videotapes is basically run by forces on the Taoist side in Xiangdao.

If there is a technology with lower cost and more convenient production, the damage will be even greater.

This kind of machine will really kill the video recorder?

"To tell you the truth, Brother Li, I, and another friend also jointly established a company that produces VCD players." Song Yang continued, "But unlike other companies that may be doing this, we also We have established a film and television production company and an audio-visual product distribution company. You are familiar with Xiangdao, and we have many friends in the mainland. We don’t want to do pirated copies. If we want to stabilize or even expand the market for audio-visual products sold by Xiangdao to the mainland, we should Considering a new model."

Le Huimin looked up at him with sharp eyes: "What new model?"
