Chapter 610 Sky-high Ransom
Chapter 610 Sky-high Ransom
The next day, "Sing Ma Daily" and "Ming Pao" published the news about Xu Guanwu practicing "Sage of Calligraphy Qigong". Since "Ming Pao" started out as a martial arts novel, it even perfunctoryly used a set of "scholarly energy skills" moves, such as "air transport to the dantian", "boosting strength with both hands", etc., with a serious look, which Xu Guanwu saw I fell down laughing.
Lin Qingxia had already listened to Xu Guanwu's account of the incident yesterday, and seeing the two newspapers published the news today, she couldn't help laughing. "Sing Tao Daily and Ming Pao are currently the paid newspapers with the largest circulation in Hong Kong. I thought their news would be true, objective, and fair. Unexpectedly, I was deceiving myself and others, and even published such fake news. .”
Xu Guanwu smiled, "If you want to run a newspaper in Hong Kong, if you want to be fair, just, and true, then don't want to make money. Just like "Ta Kung Pao" and "Wen Wei Po", they are really miserable now. And if you want to make money , don’t talk about principles. The most sensational news should be reported, and the most popular news should be hyped. Not to mention, the “Oriental Daily” a few years ago, did not rely on the hype of the black X gang vendetta to become popular Is it? The Ma brothers are the big brothers of the underworld, they often receive rumors in advance, and then send their reporters to ambush them, and sure enough there are inside stories every time, which naturally attracts a group of citizens who like to watch the excitement rush to buy."
"Oh, it turns out that the crows in the world are all black," Lin Qingxia couldn't help sighing when she heard what Xu Guanwu said, "I just hope that other readers will not be misled into believing it is true, thinking that you really have some bookishness." Gong', when the time comes, you will be blown away by the phone."
Lin Qingxia's words became a prophecy, and in the next few days, the phone numbers of Xu Guanwu's family were indeed ringing, and they didn't know where they got the phone number from. Dreams can prolong life, invigorate the kidneys and strengthen the body, keep youth forever and so on.
Xu Guanwu was not ambiguous, so he told them several points that must be paid attention to when practicing calligraphy, and told them to practice calligraphy for an hour every day.
"Awu, is the method you told them effective? What if something goes wrong?" Zhao Yazhi asked suspiciously.
Xu Guanwu smiled, "Practicing calligraphy can indeed cultivate sentiment. Over time, one's temperament will be sublimated. Moreover, practicing calligraphy is a good exercise. Although the range of movements is not large, it requires the strength of the whole body. For the bosses who often sit in the office, what else is healthier than regular exercise? Besides, practicing calligraphy is a very healthy activity. Practice calligraphy at home behind closed doors for an hour, is it better than going out to spend time and drink? Less so No matter how bad the living habits are, people’s health, life expectancy, and spirit will improve a lot. Strengthening the body and prolonging life will not be empty words.”
"You, you always have so many goofs." Zhao Yazhi couldn't help laughing after hearing Xu Guanwu's analysis.
……
The two newspapers, "Sing Tao Daily" and "Ming Pao", in addition to publishing news about Xu Guanwu's handwriting practice, also published several manuscripts praising "Hell Without Doors".Although the authors of these articles try their best to cover up their flattery and pretend to be a fair judge, they still have a lot of praise for this movie between the lines. It can be seen that Wu Siyuan spent money.The newspaper also specifically mentioned Xu Guanwu's praise of "Hell Without Doors" and director Xu Ke.
However, although Xu Guanwu helped to promote it, and Wu Siyuan invited many media to help promote it, the box office of "Hell Without Doors" still did not improve much.The main reason is that the subject matter is too dark. Although the sword may win by surprise, it also takes a considerable risk.And this time Xu Ke obviously left to recite the words. "Hell Without Doors" invested 80 Hong Kong dollars, but the final box office was less than 20. Wu Siyuan really lost to his grandma's house this time.
The key point is that Hong Kong is not a blockbuster, and Nanyang, Taiwan and other major Hong Kong box-office locations are also unable to raise the selling price. Maybe people look at Wu Siyuan's face and pay 10,000+ to buy the movie. At most, they can only let Wu Siyuan Recover the cost, go hands-free if you want to make money.
This means that the hard work of the employees of Siyuan Film Company for nearly a year has been wasted. The so-called sailing against the current is not going back. .
Although Xu Ke didn't hit the blockbusters for two of his films, he was surprised that some film companies were willing to invite him to make films, but they were scared away by Wu Siyuan's high price.
Wu Siyuan doesn't know what to do with Xu Ke now, if he continues to invest in his filming, if he doesn't sell well, he will have to jump into the sea with a stone in his arms.If he is no longer allowed to make movies, it would be a waste of rice to raise an idler, and besides, he couldn't bear to watch Xu Ke's youth go to waste.
As for other film companies inviting Xu Ke to direct new films, Wu Siyuan also welcomes them. He just proposed that the pay should be higher, or that the films should be distributed by Siyuan Film Company after filming... After all, he has already lost money on two films. It's the movie, and now the eyes of the loser are starting to glow green. If the robbery is not illegal, Wu Siyuan would have the heart to grab a gun and rob HSBC.
However, no company was willing to agree to these two requests he made. The main reason is that Wu Siyuan asked for a price too hard. If Xu Ke was asked to make a movie, besides Xu Ke's [-] Hong Kong dollars, he had to give it to Siyuan Film Company. Fifty thousand, together it is a huge sum of [-] Hong Kong dollars. For some small film companies, this is almost all their belongings.If this little money is given to Wu Siyuan, then the new film will have no funds to start filming, and naturally Xu Ke will not be needed.
Xu Ke was also a little dissatisfied with Wu Siyuan's actions, and refused to invest in filming for him, and did not allow him to film for other companies.To be honest, not being able to make money is still a trivial matter, the key is that he can't get exercise when he is idle, and wasting his youth in vain is a major matter.But after all, this matter was caused by him, so although Xu Ke complained, he still didn't say anything, just wanted to conceive another movie to impress Wu Siyuan.
……
The contact between Teddy Robin and Shaw Brothers has also made progress in the past few days. Shaw Brothers proposed a sky-high termination fee in order to scare Teddy Robin away. It was absolutely affordable at the time.To be honest, even if it is Zhang Guorong, Alan Tam and other first-line singers of the Xu family, the termination fee is only two to three million.And Cheng Long, Hong Jingbao, Yuan Biao and other first-line movie stars' termination fees are only 1000 million.
Although Zhong Chuhong's reputation has skyrocketed now, her popularity is still quite inferior compared to their predecessors.The termination fee of 1000 or [-] million is way too much beyond her current worth.
In the previous life in 200, Xu Guanjie acted in "Best Partner", and the asking price of 1000 million yuan had already scared Huang Baiming into a cold sweat.Now Shaw Brothers actually called out a high price of [-] to [-] million. To be honest, even if Zhong Chuhong was made of gold, she couldn't sell it at such a high price.
Shaw's move was mainly to avoid being poached, and to raise a sky-high price to scare away those who wanted to poach, so as to ensure that their artists would not be abducted.
Teddy Robin was taken aback when he heard Shaw Brothers call out a price of 1000 to 1000 million. 200 two million, he was born as a child actor since he was a child, he has worked hard in the entertainment industry for so many years, he is also a band and a producer, and he only saved 1000 million.Now that Shaw Brothers dared to bid [-] or [-] million for a newcomer, his first feeling was that Shao Brothers was poor and crazy.
But after all, he was only helping Xu Guanwu with questions, so he didn't show dissatisfaction, but smiled and said that he would go back and think about it, and then told Xu Guanwu the conditions offered by Shao's.
When Zhao Yazhi heard that Shaw had set a sky-high price of 1000 to 500 million for Zhong Chuhong, she couldn't help being taken aback.A few years ago, Deng Lijun, the first day of Xu's signing of the Chinese music scene, only spent [-] million Hong Kong dollars.Although she and Zhong Chuhong were good friends, to put it bluntly, she didn't think Zhong Chuhong's worth was that high, which was a bit too exaggerated.
Xu Guanwu didn't hesitate too much. To be honest, Honggu is still worth the price of 1000 to 1000 million.Among other things, the box office of the many movies starring her has at least exceeded [-] million Hong Kong dollars.What's more, there are advertising endorsements, attending events and other income, the money is much more than making movies.Moreover, with Zhong Chuhong's high quality, it is easiest to endorse high-end products such as jewelry, designer clothes, luxury cars and houses, and the endorsement fees for these products are astonishingly high.So from a long-term perspective, buying Honggu for [-] to [-] million is definitely worth the money.
Therefore, after Xu Guanwu received the news from Teddy Robin, he immediately raised a huge sum of 1000 to [-] million Hong Kong dollars to buy Honggu's contract.
Seeing that Xu Guanwu didn't hesitate at all, Teddy Robin immediately agreed, was taken aback, and almost fainted on the spot.Unexpectedly, after all these years of hard work, I am not worth as much as a beauty pageant lady who just debuted. It is really infuriating.
Zhao Yazhi was also full of doubts about Xu Guanwu's boldness. To be honest, it was 1000 or two million Hong Kong dollars. At that time, he could buy a building in Kowloon, but now he just paid the ransom for Zhong Chuhong.
"Husband won't have anything to do with Chu Hong, right?" Zhao Yazhi became more and more skeptical as she thought about it.
"Stanley, you have to think about it carefully. Shaw Brothers is obviously ripping off this time. You can't afford to be slaughtered by it." Teddy Robin said to Xu Guanwu, "1000 and two million is really not a small amount. You have to think about the amount before it is too late. Besides, Miss Zhong is on your side again. Fortunately, she hid and spent a while with him to see who can spend more than whom in the end? Didn’t Xu Shaoqiang just accept Shaw Brothers at the beginning? That's why I hid from Li's face, but in the end, Li's couldn't make it through, so why didn't he obediently let him go?"
"That's right, Ah Wu, as long as Chu Hong doesn't show up now, Shaw Brothers can't do anything. One thousand and two million is not a small amount, we shouldn't set this precedent. Otherwise, there are so many talents in Hong Kong, if we Xu Brothers want to dig Man, if they offer such a high price, we will be very passive and suffer a lot." Zhao Yazhi also persuaded.
Xu Guanwu saw that both of them objected, and after hearing what they said, he couldn't help but feel that there was some truth.Indeed, there are still many, many talents in Hong Kong who are not in the Xu family, such as the famous Mr. Xu, such as Wu Yusen, such as Yuan Heping, such as Ti Lung, Jiang Dawei, etc., each of them is not inferior to Zhong Chuhong.
If he is willing to pay a sky-high ransom of 1000 or 1000 million yuan for Zhong Chuhong this time, then if he wants to poach people from other companies in the future, the price may rise even higher.He is not Li Zekai, the Little Superman, and Zhong Chuhong is not Isabella Liang Luoshi. The sky-high price of [-] to [-] million really needs to be considered at this moment.
"In this case, let's wait for a while." Xu Guanwu thought for a while and said, "I will arrange for Zhong Chuhong to go out and study in the United States for the first half of the year. If Shaw has further actions, such as filing a lawsuit, or If we make concessions, we will make plans for the next step.”
