Island Tycoon

Chapter 171 Invitation Letter
noon.

Li Ying, who was doing errands outside in the morning, returned to the company, panting, poured himself a glass of water, and then sat in his seat to rest.When Ye Jingcheng came out of the office, he quickly stood up to say hello.

Ye Jingcheng motioned him to sit down, and then asked, "Have you finished the invitation?"

"It's done." Li Ying picked up the red plastic bag at his feet, which was full of invitation letters.

"Well, you don't need to do this. I will go to the people in the Ye family class for help in the afternoon, and send a copy to everyone who should send it. Whether the other party comes or not is one thing. We have to do enough superficial work. "

The content of this invitation letter is naturally the opening ceremony of Nanguo Cinema.Therefore, those who are related to the film industry include well-known actors, senior directors, film critics, and media reporters.

Even Shao Yifu and Zou Wenhuai, the two big bosses, also had an invitation letter from them, and Ye Jingcheng's last sentence was aimed at them.

"Understood." Li Ying nodded, it would be best to have someone do it for him, and he wished he had time to rest.

"By the way, you should fill out the invitation letters for Princess Jin and bring them to me. I'll drop by later."

Not long after, Ye Jingcheng left the company with several invitation letters.This time he went to Princess Jin, sending invitation letters to several representatives was second, mainly to discuss with Lei Juekun about Huang Baiming's whereabouts.

That's right, after a few days of consideration, Huang Baiming's answer to Ye Jingcheng was that he agreed to pass the green lantern entertainment.

Because the current him has not created relative benefits for New Art City, Lei Jue Kun is more likely to let people go, and moreover, he also wants a better development platform.

Although Huang Baiming joined as a director, his status seems to be worse than that of New Art City.But Ye Jingcheng gave him a promise that he could sponsor him to start his own company after one year.

Moreover, it is still six or four open shares, Ye Jingcheng will not intervene in the company's affairs.Regardless of power or benefits, it is much better than him staying in New Art City.

First of all, if the company has any choice, he can make up his mind alone, without having to wait for the other two bosses to nod for everything like he did in New Art City.

Furthermore, box office revenue.In New Art City, he only has 9% of the shares.That is to say, for a movie with a box office of 100 million, he only got 9 yuan, which may not be enough after deducting the cost.

But when it comes to Qingdeng Entertainment, for the same movie with a box office of 100 million, he can get a dividend of 40. Even after deducting all costs, there will always be 30 or [-], right?This number is at least three times that of the former.

"Uncle Kun, Nanguo Cinemas will open this Saturday, and I hope you can come over and visit the show." Ye Jingcheng handed over the invitation letter.

"You don't have to send an invitation letter yourself, do you?" After receiving the invitation letter, Lei Juekun didn't open it to read it, but put it on a corner of the table.

Ye Jingcheng finished and laughed, "Uncle Kun, I haven't seen you for a while, you've become so strange."

"It's too late for no profit, pretty boy, if you have anything to say, just say it."

"Uncle Kun, you really are an old traitor... No, it's wise to be scheming." Ye Jingcheng quickly changed his subject and said, "Actually, what I'm going to talk about is good for both you and me."

Hearing this, Lei Juekun didn't talk to Ye Jingcheng, and looked at Ye Jingcheng, as if he wanted to see some clues.Then, motioned him to continue talking.

"When New Art City was established, Uncle Kun, do you think it would be too hasty? The other shareholders' shareholding is still very unreasonable. If you say that the distribution is based on ability, everyone may have no objection at the beginning. But Uncle Kun, have you ever thought about the future?"

Therefore, a person's ability is not limited, he has room for improvement and retrogression.Take Mecca and Shi Tian as examples, the box office data of the latter is much higher than that of the former, but his shareholding in New Art City is only 19%, while Mecca’s shareholding is almost double his.

Shi Tian may not have said anything on the surface, but who can guess what thoughts are in his heart?Maybe he didn't say it out loud, but he definitely had an opinion in private.

It is very likely that he thinks that his ability is no less than that of Mecca. Since the company is distributed based on ability, why does Mecca take so many shares?Should his stake be increased?

Although the mainstream movies now have a box office of around 100 million.But in another one or two years, the box office figures will increase exponentially, and even because of Ye Jingcheng, a little butterfly, it may not take so long.

At that time, a movie with a box office of tens of millions, plus an overseas box office of 3000 to 1 million.Not to mention that the shares of Shi Tian and Mecca are twice as different, even if it is [-]% of the shares, the dividends received are not small amounts.

"Then how do you think I should solve it?" Lei Juekun still said the same thing, it would be too early if there was no benefit.Not to mention Ye Jingcheng, even he would not do things that are not beneficial.

"It can only be solved at the root." Ye Jingcheng gave a few suggestions, first of all, try to balance the holdings of several shareholders, so that even if there are grievances between shareholders, they don't have to hold them in their hearts.

Secondly, they can fight for opportunities by themselves, instead of as it is now, no matter what the outcome of the discussion is, in the end it is Mecca who decides alone.

"This matter is difficult." Lei Juekun shook his head, let alone whether this is really effective, first of all, Mecca will definitely not give up the shares, let alone him, anyone who eats it Will things still come out?
In that case, the only shares available for distribution are the ones in Lei Juekun's hands. Is it possible that he should take them out and pass them on to others?

"That's the key, I can help Uncle Kun change your shares." Ye Jingcheng smiled mysteriously.

Lei Juekun put down the pipe in his hand with great interest, and asked, "Oh! How did it change?"

"Huang Baiming can be asked to withdraw from New Art City, and then his 9% can be transferred to Shi Tian. Even if the balance cannot be achieved, Shi Tian will strive for greater benefits, and his tolerance will increase accordingly." After a period of After a while, Ye Jingcheng finally showed his fox tail.

"You son of a bitch, dig someone on Uncle's head!"

If Lei Juekun still can't react, then all these years of his life will be in vain.If Huang Baiming didn't have a good way out, how could he give up his shares?Needless to say, he must have been bought by Ye Jingcheng.

In fact, he had already received relevant news about the contact between the two, but it had not been confirmed yet.Right now Ye Jingcheng not only doesn't restrain himself, but puts the matter on the bright side.

"Ahem, in order to help Uncle Kun solve your problems, I've been thinking about this method for a long time." Ye Jingcheng coughed twice in embarrassment, and then continued to be thick-skinned.

"What you said is not unreasonable, but even if Shi Tian has 9% more shares. He still can't compete with Mecca, unless he has my support. But I can't judge whether they are right or wrong when it comes to movies." Lei Jue Kun gave him an angry look.

What Ye Jingcheng said was not unreasonable.There is a common saying that literati look down on each other. In fact, it is not only literati who look down on each other. This situation occurs in all walks of life.If the two people have the same meaning, it's okay to say, if there is a disagreement, then the two people must be stubborn.

"Actually, it's not difficult, but Uncle Kun, you have to invest an extra sum of money." Ye Jingcheng spread his hands and said, "Since the two of them are not compatible, they can be divided into two companies for their own administration, and the conflict of rights will be easily resolved. "

In the past, Lei Jue wouldn't even think about it, because he had drawn these three people to form New Art City because of the idea that one person counts the short and the other counts the long.If New Art City really wants to split, and everyone no longer advises each other, will the few shareholders turn back into cobblers?

However, Lei Juekun's thinking is quite different now. Even though he is not familiar with the movie industry, he seems to see the glory of movies in the next few years from Ye Jingcheng.

Instead of thinking about it, it is better to try it according to the other party's suggestion.If Mecca and Shi Tianzhen can manage the affairs of a company independently, then his personal income is likely to be doubled.

Moreover, splitting into two companies is also beneficial. First of all, he doesn't have to be tied to a tree to death. In fact, he already thought so when he wooed Chen Xunqi.

Secondly, Mecca and Shi Tian can be used, and the ability needs to be practiced.Even if they can handle the company's affairs well, they will definitely feel their own shortcomings in the process, and then they won't have so many unnecessary thoughts.Maybe the two companies still have the opportunity to co-produce, reduce their rights disputes, and the tacit understanding will naturally be greatly improved.

"Your approach is not bad. I think you might as well open up three companies and let Huang Baiming manage one of them." Lei Juekun seemed to be serious, but at the same time seemed to be joking.

"Uncle Kun, you don't need to play me as a spring. Even if Huang Baiming doesn't come with me, you might not dare to reuse him. Although he has some abilities, he is not ready to support a company. I think He is now in New Art City, he is mostly doing some errand work, right?"

In Lei Juekun's eyes, Huang Baiming is really hardworking. As for his aptitude and potential, with his current performance, he really can't see anything.

What's more, Ye Jingcheng came here, this matter has become a certainty.Lei Juekun wanted to keep Huang Baiming, unless he asked him to open a film company as he said.

"This time, I'll treat it cheaply, you brat, and exchange two scripts for the contract later." Lei Juekun accepted the matter.It's just that he doesn't intend to let Ye Jingcheng take this advantage for nothing.

Compared with Huang Baiming's talent, the two scripts are really nothing.In addition, Lei Juekun did not clearly limit the box office, so a random script of three to five million yuan was enough to cope.

It may be difficult for others, but for Ye Jingcheng, he doesn't even want to waste his energy to shoot a movie of this level.

……

At the same time that the invitation letter was sent out, Golden Harvest and Shaw Brothers, who were most concerned about the movements of the Nanguo Cinemas, responded to the invitation letter sent.

Jiahe.

"Wen Huai, what do you think of this matter?" He Guanchang asked.

Five minutes ago, the secretary at the front desk received two invitation letters, from him and Zou Wenhuai.

"How can I see it?" Zou Wenhuai shook his head helplessly and asked, "Of course I will go."

"Are you going?" Out of understanding of Zou Wenhuai, He Guanchang couldn't believe it.

"Go, why don't you go, and see what tricks that bad boy is up to." He was angry at Ye Jingcheng for pulling up a theater line without a word at first.

But now, having come all the way through the predicament, he firmly believes that the operation of theater chains is not easy.It took him 30 years to accumulate experience, and it took him ten years to let Golden Harvest gain a firm foothold.

And Ye Jingcheng?In less than a year of working in the industry, there are only ten theaters hastily pulled up.A lot of work has not been done beforehand, and the existence of these problems may not even be realized.

Therefore, Zou Wenhuai is not optimistic about Ye Jingcheng's prospects, thinking that this young man is at best young and energetic. Not to mention whether his theater line can affect Jiahe's status, it is still a question of whether he can gain a firm foothold in the future.

Since this was the case, why did he have to argue with Ye Jingcheng?

……

Shaw.

Fang Yihua was standing next to Shao Yifu, looking at the invitation letter in his hand, his eyes could not help showing a bit of disdain.

"Meng Lan, you should have received the invitation letter, right?" Shao Yifu asked after putting down the invitation letter in his hand.

"Yeah, but I don't want to go." Fang Yihua said disgustedly: "This guy surnamed Ye is obviously a villain."

"Hehe, then let's not go. Anyway, Ye Jingcheng is looking for someone to fill the scene, and it is enough for Huang Jing's juniors to be there." For Shao Yifu, it really doesn't matter whether he goes or not.

One is that Shao Yifu is more open-minded, or in other words, his desire to fight for hegemony also fades when he gets old.

Second, he has no interest relationship with the other party.Even if Ye Jingcheng doesn't pull up this theater chain, the partners he cooperates with are Golden Harvest or Princess Jin, which will still have an impact on Shaw Brothers' box office.

"Do you want me to ask someone to tell them not to go?" Fang Yihua looked down on Ye Jingcheng, but others didn't necessarily.Especially Huang Jing who is his friend.If they were allowed to pass by, wouldn't Ye Jingcheng have a chance to poach corners?

"No need, except for Huang Jing and Zhang Jianting, it doesn't matter if the others go or not." Shao Yifu is still more optimistic about these two potential stocks, after all, they are the younger generation, compared to those old antiques who only know how to make martial arts movies, Not only did I think about diversification, but I also had a good understanding of the market.

As for these two people, Huang Jing was surrounded by his old bean Huang Tianlin, unless Huang Tianlin left Shaw Brothers first, it would be impossible for him to leave.

As for Zhang Jianting, when he left Qingdeng Entertainment, Ye Jingcheng was furious at him because of this incident. Now he just wants to go back.

And other people, such as those few old antiques who only know how to make martial arts movies, and those employees who didn't make much contribution to Shaw Brothers.Shao Yifu still wished that they would disappear automatically. The Shao Group is not as big as before, and the scale of production is also large.

On the contrary, the benefits of the two are getting lower and lower, and it is necessary to reduce expenses.

Fang Yihua, who had always been hostile to Ye Jingcheng, said with flickering eyes, "It's better to remind you."
