Chapter 367

As a reborn, Wang Xiaohu himself has caused damage to the current structure of Hong Kong movies. Fortunately, this damage is benign. It breaks the darkest and most confusing voyage of Hong Kong movies, and re-examines it with a vision that is nearly 40 years ahead of this era. this problem.

It will take four or five years for those actors, those directors, and those familiar faces to appear on stage. In these four or five years, it will be the golden time for Wang Xiaohu to unify Hong Kong movies.So after weighing it over and over again, he decided to attack Jiahe!

Wang Xiaohu spoke very directly and clearly, and did not conceal his intention to poach Jiahe's corner in his words.Golden Harvest spent 1000 million to poach Jackie Chan, and Wang Xiaohu also upholds the principle of reciprocity, loosening Golden Harvest's most basic industry - theaters.

It’s not that Wang Xiaohu has no money to build a new theater. In fact, Concorde is currently working on this work. Two luxury theaters that can accommodate 3000 people have started construction at the same time on Nathan Road and Kimberley Road in Tsim Sha Tsui. It is expected to be completed by the end of the year. When the two luxury theaters will be officially opened.

As one of the three main elements for the healthy development of Hong Kong films, theaters occupy a considerable amount of weight. Controlling the theaters is equivalent to controlling one-third of the Hong Kong film industry. Wang Xiaohu's film dynasty blueprint can also span a large step.

As far as Xiehe Company is currently showing strong strength, it is reasonable and reasonable for Wang Xiaohu to offer such a condition. Several bosses glanced at each other and did not give an immediate answer. Let them have a look at the sharing contract.

"The box office is divided into six and four points, six for me and four for you." Wang Xiaohu said lightly: "You can ask the bosses of the previous companies who came to sign the contract, they are all at this price."

In fact, these bosses had already inquired about the negotiating weights before they came. Sixty-four dividends are relatively fair. Even if Wang Xiaohu proposed seven-thirds dividends at this time, they had to sign it in order to maintain the normal development of the theater. It can be said that Wang Xiaohu thought very well and did not mean to kill them all.

The bosses nodded, signed it happily, and paid the deposit. Then Wang Xiaohu gave them the copy of "Ahu".

These newly added theaters did not have much impact on the box office. As of the beginning of August, when the first round of "A Hu" was closed, the box office in Hong Kong reached 8 million, breaking the local box office record. , The box office in Southeast Asia has also accumulated to 600 million, and the first round of release in North America is one month longer than Hong Kong, but the current statistics are also 320 million, and it is in US dollars.

Others envied and envied Wang Xiaohu, but Wang Xiaohu didn't show much excitement. When Run Run Shaw came to congratulate him, Wang Xiaohu curled his lips and said, "It's nothing."

The calmness and disapproval when he spoke almost made Run Run Shaw scold his mother. He pointed at Wang Xiaohu and said angrily: "Don't you think there are not enough? Think about it, who can let movies be released in the whole Southeast Asia and North America at the same time, who can get you in the past?" Abnormal box office, do you feel that this temple in Hong Kong is too small to accommodate your Oscar Buddha?"

Wang Xiaohu shook his head bitterly, and finally corrected his demeanor, "Uncle Six, it's not that I'm dissatisfied, nor that I'm proud of my current achievements. In fact, our Hong Kong films have only taken the first step. There is a limit to the influence that comes from it. If you are shooting alone in Hollywood, you will find that this achievement is really nothing, just like you used to get a monthly salary of [-] Hong Kong dollars, but this month you Even if you get [-] Hong Kong dollars, you won't be so excited."

"What if it's [-]?" Run Run Shaw asked, narrowing his eyes and staring at Wang Xiaohu.

"Not enough!" Wang Xiaohu chuckled, with greater ambition in his eyes: "If it's 200 million or 2000 million, I'll be a little bit more satisfied."

The concept of 2000 and [-] million, anyone can understand the difference. In the eyes of Run Run Shaw, what Wang Xiaohu said just now is like a dream. According to him, he is now dissatisfied with the development in Hong Kong. To be precise, this kid is in Hollywood. After more than two years of tossing, not only has my vision broadened, my thinking has matured, and my courage has also grown fat, to the point where I want to dominate the world's movies.

After a long time, Run Run Shaw woke up from the shock, gritted his teeth and said, "Boy, you're ruthless! Your appetite must be too big, be careful if you can't eat it in one bite, the fat man will choke to death."

"So I want to eat one bite at a time." Wang Xiaohu shook his head with a wry smile. In fact, he has only now realized that instead of silently waiting for the arrival of the glorious era of Hong Kong movies, it is better to take advantage of the market before it is formed. The main reason for thinking is: the Hong Kong movies in his previous life were colorful, and he couldn't bear to affect some people and some things because of his behavior.

Run Run Shaw couldn't do anything about it. Wang Xiaohu was Sina, he was Lao Lang, and the Yangtze River was behind the waves. He couldn't understand Wang Xiaohu's ambitions and ideas, so he asked with a sigh, "How do you want to go next?"

"Work together to completely suppress Jiahe!" Wang Xiaohu narrowed his eyes and said in a cold voice: "I used to expect them to make some waves, but now it seems hopeless!"

Run Run Shaw stared at Wang Xiaohu for a long time, then smiled mysteriously: "Jiahe's current situation of immortality, I know a little bit of the inside story!"

"Oh?" Wang Xiaohu became interested, pulled Run Run Shaw to sit on the sofa, and asked curiously: "Sixth Uncle, tell me, what happened to Jiahe?"

"It's very simple. At the beginning, Long Tiantian was against you just to help Long Wu girl vent her anger. You wanted to kill Jiahe, so he just saved Jiahe." Run Run Shaw said with emotion: "But when Long Tiantian took over Jiahe, It was a tragedy to find out that he doesn't know much about movies, and it's somewhat difficult for a layman to lead an expert, especially two ambitious guys, Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang."

Wang Xiaohu nodded. What Run Run Shaw said was not unreasonable. Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang were definitely not cheap lamps. If they had no ambitions, they would not have left Shaw Brothers with 40 Hong Kong dollars in their pockets to start anew.Although the Long family is rich, they do not have professionals who are familiar with the film industry.

"Actually, the Long family didn't clean up all of Golden Harvest's mess." Run Run Shaw said something that surprised Wang Xiaohu. "I complained to Old Man Long many times, and made Old Man Long fully realize that the twists and turns in the film industry are not something anyone can handle, and Long Girl was also there that day."

Run Run Shaw said that he stopped on purpose here, looked at Wang Xiaohu with a smile and said, "Actually, Miss Long has quarreled with her brother several times over this matter, which shows that she has a crush on you!"

"Uncle Six, get to the point!" Wang Xiaohu coughed twice and urged embarrassingly, he didn't want to continue entanglement on this issue.

Run Run Shaw sighed, as if he felt sorry for Wang Xiaohu's indifference, and he said after a long time: "Anyway, the old man of the Long family talked to Long Tiantian several times. He's not an idiot, he just entered Golden Harvest with a high profile at the beginning, and then invested little by little in Golden Harvest."

"That's not right! I remember that Jiahe paid compensation very quickly after losing the lawsuit. If Long Tiantian didn't take out the money, how could they pay it back!" Wang Xiaohu frowned, puzzled.

"Yes, at the beginning I also thought that Long Tiantian took out the money from the profit from the stock market disaster, but old man Long told me that the money was mainly taken out by Zou Wenhuai." Run Run Shaw's voice dragged on for a long time, as if he was thinking for himself at the time. Embarrassed by giving Wang Xiaohu wrong information. "Jackie Chan's 1000 million yuan has never been cashed in. In fact, Jackie Chan only got less than 50 yuan. Then the Long family began to watch Zou Wenhuai and found that Zou Wenhuai kept proposing some big productions that cost millions of Hong Kong dollars, but Zou Wenhuai couldn't get it. I sold the shooting plan that Long Tiantian thought was feasible, so I kept holding on to it, and you will never imagine what happened in the end!"

"What happened?" Wang Xiaohu scratched his head, "Uncle Six, you are not a good storyteller, why don't you just tell me all the results."

"Hey, young people are just impatient, it's boring, okay?"

It turned out that Long Tiantian also had great ambitions at the beginning of taking over Golden Harvest, and wanted to make a big splash in the film industry, so he couldn't wait to ask Zou Wenhuai to submit a shooting plan, but Zou Wenhuai did not come up with a good script after two months of writing. The script provided by Gu Long was strongly opposed by Jackie Chan, and the three parties broke up unhappy.

Just at this time, the news that Wang Xiaohu had won four Oscars reached Hong Kong, and Run Run Shaw once again visited Long's house, making old man Long feel that it would be even more difficult for Jiahe to turn around. Run Run Shaw, Golden Harvest did not have a director, but Jackie Chan did have an actor, but the best script in Hong Kong can only be provided by Xiehe Wang Xiaohu.

Seeing this, Long Tiantian wanted to quit. Zou Wenhuai and others could not persuade him, and finally persisted, wanting to follow Jackie Chan to continue to stand up. In fact, after Jiahe pretended to be around for half a year, he was directly abducted by Wu Siyuan and Chen Ziqiang.

"Wu Siyuan? Chen Ziqiang! Damn it, they hooked up after all!" Wang Xiaohu was taken aback for a moment, then immediately came to his senses and asked, "Then Jiahe is not a lost dog?"

"Exactly!"

"Damn, what are we waiting for, Sixth Uncle, let's join forces to annex this girl, this time no one can stop me from taking revenge!" Wang Xiaohu exclaimed excitedly.

"Hehe, that's exactly what I mean, otherwise I wouldn't be visiting today!" Run Run Shaw laughed out loud.
