Chapter 370 Debao Yuan's New Art City Appears

But heartbeat does not mean action. The film industry still pays more attention to seniority. Among the people present, it seems that there are only two teams capable of shooting alone, that is, the combination of Sammo Hung and Yuen Biao, and the other is Yuan Heping and his son. Although Jackie Chan's job-hopping has affected the strength of Yuan Heping and his son, the prestige of their three fathers and sons is resounding in the whole circle.

So as soon as Wang Xiaohu's words fell, everyone's eyes focused on Sammo Hung and Yuan Heping.Since Wang Xiaohu had discussed this matter with the two of them half a year ago, they were not nervous at all, and happily signed under the envious eyes of everyone.

"Very good, does anyone else want to set up a satellite company?" Wang Xiaohu rubbed his hands and looked at the others with an encouraging smile on his face.

As mentioned earlier, Xiehe Company has always been a relatively young team. The core members of the company are all under 30 years old, and Yuen Biao is even younger, less than 18 years old.In this group of people, except Sammo Hung and Yuan Heping, although the others have worked hard with Wang Xiaohu for more than two years, they have never delved into this aspect of knowledge.At the same time, they have no experience in setting up a branch in their hearts, so they dare not stand up.

Wang Xiaohu's eyes wandered over the crowd. He saw Zhang Aijia at the end looking down at the contract seriously, and smiled knowingly in his heart. At this time, Zhang Aijia hadn't thought of becoming a female director. To be precise, she is currently working in the circle. Although the actor's time is longer than Zhao Yazhi, he is not as talented in acting as Zhao Yazhi.

It’s not that Wang Xiaohu flaunted his wife on purpose. It should be said that since rebirth and Zhao Yazhi met, he has been tailoring the role for Zhao Yazhi, making the role more in line with Zhao Yazhi’s true performance. Through three films and one TV series, Zhao Yazhi tried She has played female roles of various professions and age groups, and is a very popular female artist in the industry. If she is not Wang Xiaohu's woman, she may have been signed by other companies.

Zhang Aijia has to wait a few years to become a director, but Wang Xiaohu knows that in history, Zhang Aijia entered Xinyi City as a director in 83. This woman is definitely not a simple person.Thinking of New Art City, Wang Xiaohu shifted his gaze to Huang Baiming, Mai Jia, and Shi Tian. The three giants of the future New Art City were staring at the people in the meeting room.

It has become the favorite thing of the Big Three to observe the expressions of people around them when encountering different situations, because Wang Xiaohu said that characters come from life, and you can form them in your brain only through continuous observation and accumulation. The character of the character, when creating the script, the storyline will also be extended according to the character of the character.

The three found that the master was looking at them, and immediately looked at each other, you look at me, I look at you, Huang Baiming said: "What does the master's eyes mean?"

Mai Jia stroked her bald head and said, "It seems, it seems to encourage us to sign the contract."

Shi Tian frowned and said: "But, but the three of us have only learned to write scripts from Master in the past two years, and have no experience in managing companies. If the satellite company is lost by us, wouldn't it be embarrassing for Master? ?”

Huang Baiming shook his head and said: "I can't say that, do you still remember what Master said, as long as you have a good script, you are not afraid that no one will invest in it. Master has trained us for the past two years. If he thinks we can do it, We should be able to."

What Huang Baiming said is correct. Wang Xiaohu really meant it. The Big Three had been with him for more than two years. During these two years, the three of them were often tortured by Wang Xiaohu's thoughts and wrote many absurd scripts. , The three of them went into battle together, and they came up with two scripts in one day. Although absurd, their vision was broadened, and their passion for script creation was always full.

In the past two years, they have been screenwriters in Hong Kong's top ten blockbuster films such as "Ghost and Horse Twin Stars", "Half Weight", "Drunken Master", and "Prodigal Boy". This guy can be regarded as one of the few talented young screenwriters in the circle.In today's satellite company plan, Wang Xiaohu reserved a place for them.

Seeing that the three of them were still discussing in whispers, Wang Xiaohu was a little anxious, coughed twice and said: "Have you three discussed it yet?"

"We've discussed it!" The three replied in unison.

"After discussing it, sign on it!" Wang Xiaohu laughed and scolded: "What are you doing, it's not about having a baby!"

That being said, starting a company is a lot more complicated than having a baby.The reorganization meeting went on for a whole morning, and there were no accidents during the process. Xiehe Company produced three satellite companies through this reorganization meeting, namely Sammo Hung's Debao Company, Yuan Heping's Yuan's Company, Huang Baiming, Mai Jia, Shi When the three satellite companies of Tianxin Art City Company were established, Wang Xiaohu gave them a start-up capital of 500 million Hong Kong dollars respectively, and at the same time occupied 50% of the shares in the three satellite companies.This was clearly stipulated in the contract, and it was also the result of mutual agreement between Wang Xiaohu, Sammo Hung, and Yuan Heping.

In fact, when discussing the distribution of shares, Wang Xiaohu, Sammo Hung, and Yuan Heping had a big dispute. According to Wang Xiaohu's suggestion, after the establishment of the satellite company, the head office will provide comprehensive technical services, and at the same time invest and shoot according to effective scripts. The shares account for 30% %, so that only relying on box office dividends and various technical director fees, Xiehe Company can maintain basic survival and development.

But Sammo Hung and Yuan Heping refused to agree.

"Ahu, it has to be 50%, otherwise Dayan and I won't agree!" Sammo Hung said in an unusually firm tone, and Yuan Heping also nodded vigorously: "Yes, Ahu, we won't lose money at 50%!"

"Hehe, you don't need this kind of thing, so you earn less and you don't have the passion for creation, what do you do?"

"Ahu, you have helped us a lot in the past two years. It can be said that without you, Sanmao and I would not have achieved what we are today. Maybe we are still teaching martial arts for Jiahe or Shaw Brothers." Yuan Heping's tone was also very sincere: "We It’s not the ungrateful guy Aaron, so if you don’t agree to the 50% stake, we will continue to work for you, and we would rather get a monthly salary of [-] Hong Kong dollars!”

Seeing their firm eyes, Wang Xiaohu knew what they were thinking, so he sighed and agreed.

In fact, if Jackie Chan didn't leave, there would be a place for him in today's reorganization meeting. However, everyone has their own ambitions. Jackie Chan's departure from Golden Harvest did not realize his dream, and he got mixed up with Wu Siyuan and Chen Ziqiang.

Wu Siyuan is the president of Hong Kong Siyuan Film Company, a small company that has just been established, but Wang Xiaohu knows that if he does not show up, Wu Siyuan will be a group of dark horses in the Hong Kong film industry. He was frustrated at Luo Wei's company, and it was Wu Siyuan who poached him from Luo Wei, and collaborated with Chen Ziqiang and Yuan Heping to create classic films such as "Serpentine Hand" and "Drunken Master".

To be honest, Wang Xiaohu actually robbed Wu Siyuan of his business, and now that Jackie Chan has returned to Wu Siyuan's side several times, it must be said that it was an arrangement of fate.

As for Chen Chi Keung, he had just come to Hong Kong from Singapore and was working as an assistant manager in Cathay Films.He had a close relationship with Qin Xianglin, the pillar of Cathay Pacific, and often communicated with each other, so he also formed a group of people known as the "Silver Rats" (members include Qin Xianglin, Deng Guangrong, Xie Xian, Zhang Sen, Zhang Chong, etc.) Get married, cooperate with each other.Jackie Chan and Chen Chi Keung are inseparable business partners. It is said in the industry that Chan Chi Keung has been Jackie Chan's manager for many years.The two know each other very well, and they know each other's strengths and weaknesses well.

Wang Xiaohu also knew that after Jackie Chan took the 1000 million check, he immediately consulted with Chen Ziqiang, and then he switched to Golden Harvest under the persuasion of Qin Xianglin and others.

After the reorganization meeting, Wang Xiaohu led the company's employees to have dinner at Bruce Lee's restaurant. With the busy work, everyone ate together less and less frequently, so that the restaurant owner's wife, Yuanmei, complained non-stop when she saw Wang Xiaohu: "Look! You have all become big bosses, and you are so busy that you don't even have time to eat."

Wang Xiaohu hurriedly yelled, "Sister Mei, from now on I will bring everyone here once a week. If there is one less time, you can ask Master to treat me to rattan noodles."

"Ah Hu, you are more and more capable of fooling people now!" Yuan Mei sighed and said, "Who doesn't know that you are now the master's heart, and it's too late for the master to love you, so why is he willing to beat you!"

More than 30 people were divided into four tables. Wang Xiaohu's table was mainly occupied by the heads of three satellite companies. After the food and wine were served, Wang Xiaohu tapped the wine glass with chopsticks and said, "You are all bosses today. I wish you all the best. Make a lot of money in the future."

"Ahu (Master), what are you talking about, we are still a family!"

After drinking a glass of wine, Wang Xiaohu continued: "The company has just been established, and the most important thing is to come up with your own entrepreneurial work. In view of the close cooperation between everyone in the past, it may be difficult to start a business alone, so let's report the script as soon as possible." Come up, actors and actresses can share resources, as long as you guys arrange the schedule reasonably, it shouldn't be difficult."

Sammo Hung and Yuan Heping naturally had no problems, but Huang Baiming, Mai Jia, and Shi Tian were frowning. Huang Baiming asked cautiously: "Master, you see we don't have any good books at hand."

"If you don't, write it! You are all bosses, you must learn to be independent." Wang Xiaohu glared, and Huang Baiming shrank his neck in fright. Knowing that this made the master angry, it's not that they couldn't write the script, but Studying with Wang Xiaohu for a long time has created a kind of dependence. Usually, Wang Xiaohu gives the outline of the script, and they perfect it. Now that they are going to start their own business, it is inevitable that they are a little nervous.

They are very different from Sammo Hung and Yuan Heping. Hong and Yuan came out of the film set. They took the route of Kung Fu movies. Although the three of them have also written Kung Fu movie scripts, what Wang Xiaohu taught is For comedies and spoofs, the master is a screenwriter with a box office of tens of millions, and the three apprentices immediately felt that starting a business was very stressful!
