Chapter 41 Failed Talks
"hiss!"
At this moment, all eyes are on him, and the thoughts in his heart are similar.Secretly thought that this kid didn't care what kind of fresh radish skin he was, so he really dared to say anything.
Fortunately, Ye Jingcheng kept a smiling face when he entered the door. If he hadn't reached out and refused to hit the smiling face, he would have been kicked out with a stick.
Why is he here to discuss cooperation now? He simply wants the theater to treat you like a God of Wealth. The most important thing is do you have the capital?Who wouldn't say just big words?
Lei Juekun snorted coldly after hearing this, and questioned: "I'm a straightforward person, since you can say this, do you really have this ability?"
Ye Jingcheng pointed to Maijia and the others, then pointed to himself, and said without hesitation: "What the seven of them can do, I can handle alone."
"What a big tone." At this moment, Shi Tian, who had been silent all this time, spoke.
Although the other people didn't say anything, they looked at Ye Jingcheng with unkind eyes.Including Zeng Zhiwei, who was smiling all the time just now, his face also turned cold following his words.
"First of all, let me declare that what I'm going to say next is not to be inferior to other people, but to let you, Lei Sheng, understand my ability." After speaking, Ye Jingcheng gave Maijia and the others an intriguing look.
"It is true that my company has been established for less than a month, and there is not enough time to accumulate experience. The company has only produced one movie so far, which is "Human Meat Roasted Meat Shop", which was released at the beginning of the month."
"The production cost of this drama is 17, and the local box office is... [-]... [-]... [-]."
Hearing this, Mecca finally realized that what Ye Jingcheng said just now was obviously humiliating him.Saying that there is not enough time to accumulate experience is actually an insinuation that his ability is not as good as his own.
In other words, he was already so good at the beginning of his business, instead of standing up after falling several times like Mecca.Mecca believes that failure is the mother of success in starting a business, but behind his success is strategizing.
"Go ahead." Lei Juekun's eyes flashed imperceptibly. He never thought that the film "Human Meat Roasting Meat Shop" that made him worry was actually produced by this little-known kid in front of him.
Shaw Brothers has actually made quite a few blockbuster films this year, but unfortunately most of them are romantic films that cannot be seen on the stage.If these romantic films lacked those meat-selling scenes, the box office results might not be one in ten.
There are only two films that have achieved box office results of 300 million based on the film's own exquisite plot.
One is "Peerless Twins" with a box office of 400 million, ranking fourth in the annual box office.The other is "Lin Yazhen Tiger Fish Shrimp Crab" with a box office of 310 million, ranking seventh in the annual box office.
In addition, films such as "The Merry Broken Sword and Little Knife", "Full Moon Scimitar", "The Desperate Detective" and "Mad Monkey" all scored more than 200 million, so although Shaw Brothers showed signs of decline on the surface, Jiahe did not. Has been unable to shake its leading throne.
Especially for the movie "Desperate and More", it can already be seen that Shao Daheng has begun to transform, trying to shoot genre films in modern cities. If this movie with a box office of more than 200 million is just a test of the water.
Then with the appearance of "Human Flesh Roast Meat Shop", it can be said that Shaw Brothers has begun to exert its strength.According to this situation, Shaw Brothers will complete its transformation in the near future, and will no longer release martial arts films that make audiences sick.
Seeing Lei Juekun's thoughtfulness, Ye Jingcheng continued: "The company has started filming the second work, and it is expected to be completed in early December. I think the local box office of this film can reach one, one thousand, ten thousand."
"Young man, did you say the wrong thing quickly, did you want to say 100 million?" Huang Baiming said with some sarcasm.
"100 million?" Ye Jingcheng raised the corner of his mouth helplessly, and said, "The cost of this drama alone has already exceeded this amount."
……
……
……
For a while, the conference room was extremely quiet.
Everyone was suspicious of Ye Jingcheng's words, but they couldn't find any reason to refute them.
Mecca also has a movie with an investment of over one million, but it is "The One-Armed Swordsman vs. the Blind Man", which caused him, who had just stood up from failure, to fall into the bottomless mud pit again, and lost nearly 30 capital.
100 million investment is so easy to return?Obviously not.At least 300 million box office is required to be profitable. 300 million more or less?From the fact that there are only seven films that can break through this number this year, it is enough to prove that the difficulty is not a star.
In the eyes of those present, "Human Meat Roast Meat Shop" broke through 300 million box office, Ye Jingcheng should have gone to the temple to burn incense and worship Buddha.It is an extravagant hope to produce another work like this, not to mention that he is trying to break through the 500 million box office barrier before he even hits the 1000 million mark.
Sometimes self-confidence is a good thing, but there is a difference between self-confidence and arrogance.Self-confidence is confidence in the future, conceit is paranoia about mistakes.
Why did Ye Jingcheng have such confidence? Either he was extremely stupid, or he was insane. There was absolutely no third possibility.You say 1000 million is 1000 million. Why don't you say that you are the governor of Hong Kong, or that you can predict the future?
"Young boy's eloquence is really top-notch."
Lei Juekun couldn't help but gave a thumbs up to express his appreciation, and continued: "However, you have said so much. If there is something true, Daheng Shao should support you with all his strength. Why do you come to talk to me about it?" cooperate?"
"Sixth Uncle's heart is old and he can't keep up with the aesthetics of the times. Moreover, it is a fatal mistake to entrust his career to an incomparable woman." Ye Jingcheng shook his head, his eyes full of disappointment.
"I'll take it as if what you said is true."
Lei Juekun knocked out the ash from the pipe, then added shredded tobacco and lit it.Said: "But you want to cooperate with me in a simple sentence. For this reason, I have to advance the construction period of the theater line at least half a year earlier, and in addition, I have several times the labor cost before."
In fact, it does not mean that films cannot be released during the reorganization period. On the contrary, several films have already been screened in the Golden Princess, and the decoration of the theater can be said to be only part of the entire reorganization plan.
In addition, a suitable timing is needed, and a good timing can more or less reduce the obstacles brought about by Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest.The golden princess in the original time and space took advantage of the fierce battle between Jiahe and Shaw, joined the battlefield as a third party and successfully gained a foothold.
In addition to these two conditions, Princess Jin also needs a brand name that can bear a big banner, such as Bruce Lee and Chenglong in Jiahe's hands.Now the movies shown on the Golden Princess are either behind the leather bag material company, or just following the trend, which cannot meet this condition at all.
That's why Lei Juekun needed to win over everyone in New Art City, and the time, place and people were in harmony, so that the risk could be minimized, and the opponent could be caught off guard.
"Lei Sheng..."
Before Ye Jingcheng could continue to persuade, Lei Juekun had already reached out his hand to stop him, and said, "Okay, I will consider your suggestion, if you have nothing to do, go out first."
"In this case, I will take my leave first."
Since Ye Jingcheng came to Hong Kong illegally, it can be said that this is the first time he has been rejected.Although he was mentally prepared before coming, he even expected that he would not even see Lei Juekun.But getting this answer disappointed him even more than not seeing anyone.
Perhaps Lei Juekun didn't take him seriously, or the other party was playing hard to get, but these were not the most important.The important thing is that he has a feeling of being manipulated.
"Humph."
Seeing Ye Jingcheng leaving, everyone in the conference room looked at each other coldly.A few people were even more contemptuous in their hearts. Just now this person stepped on them a lot, in order to improve Lei Juekun's impression of him.
After nearly half an hour of the meeting, today's topic finally came to an end.
At this time, Lei Juekun, who sent everyone away, called his secretary and said, "Xiao Ling, call Li Ji for me and ask him to follow this young man."
"Also help me find out the person in charge of the theater chain's reorganization project and tell him to come see me right away." Before the secretary left, Lei Juekun added another order.
"Got it, Lei Sheng." Xiao Ling nodded and left the meeting room.Back in her seat, Guo Xiaoling took out a phone book from the drawer, and dialed a number on it.
"Hey."
"Hello, Almighty Detective Agency, I'm Li Zhiqun." The other end of the phone responded.
(For the book friends who rewarded, voted, and supported these days, the little thief will not name them one by one here. Anyway, thank you, thank you, and thank you again.)

Hearing this, Mecca finally realized that what Ye Jingcheng said just now was obviously humiliating him.Saying that there is not enough time to accumulate experience is actually an insinuation that his ability is not as good as his own.
