Xiangjiang old events [entertainment circle]

No matter how much Ovitz tried to persuade, Su Yun still invested 30 US dollars in the company called "Microsoft" in exchange for 35% of the original shares.

It stands to reason that with the current status of the two giants in the future, in fact, if she works harder, she may be able to receive more than 50% or even more than 67% of the shares.

But the problem is that although Su Yun is rich, her social status caused by race and age is her most fatal disadvantage.

If she dares to extend her hands to occupy too many shares, then the two golden eggs, which have a high proportion of "foreign capital" shares, are likely to be influenced by her, and thus be suppressed to develop and expand in their homeland.

Su Yun also didn't plan to spend her whole life holding these two golden eggs. After all, America, which claims to be free, would not let a high-tech enterprise of this level be occupied by outsiders. The right to speak about things like science and technology must also be in the hands of their own people in their own country.

Therefore, with the growth and development of the two golden eggs, Su Yun's shares will inevitably be diluted due to various reasons, and thus replaced with a large amount of funds to return to the country.

Yes, that's right, domestic.

Su Yun didn't expect to be tossing around in Hollywood forever, she worked so hard like a squirrel, relying on future knowledge to find leaks, in order to wait for a suitable time to return to Xiangjiang to develop.

When the Zhao Film Company began to decline in the 80s, it was a very suitable and good time.

At that time, it was also the heyday of Xiangjiang's entertainment industry. She should be fifteen or sixteen years old at that time, and she could definitely try to challenge for the top position instead of relying on various bigwigs to survive.

Jiahe allows its artists to set up satellite companies affiliated with them, and there is no need to worry about directly opposing Jiahe because of seeking independence. Instead, she can rely on Jiahe's shadow and gradually develop her own film company.

The most glorious period of Hong Kong films is the ten years when the time and place are so favorable. When her company is fully grown, it is estimated that it will be able to almost outperform its peers.

Of course, the fate of the Hong Kong film market is almost the same during this period-after all, the root cause of the decline of Hong Kong films is the game of world capital.

Hong Kong's present is actually very similar to Hollywood's past: due to war and other reasons, a large number of talents from all over the world gathered in one place, thus cultivating the first batch of filmmakers.

Relying on the same skin color and ethnicity as Japan, South Korea, Southeast Asia and other regions and stories that are closer to Eastern thinking, Hong Kong films have gained a place in Asia where Hollywood movies are rampant, but sooner or later they will lose to such a situation where the times make heroes.

Therefore, the success of Hong Kong films is due to the current situation, and the failure is also due to the current situation. When the demand for good films in Asia is in short supply, they take advantage of the east wind to rise, so it is very likely that they will not only have a weak successor, but also attract resistance from many parties.

From the restrictions on Taiwan Island to the gradual strengthening of the market protection systems in Japan, South Korea, and Southeast Asia, and the delay in handing over to the mainland, a vicious circle will appear, leading to an ending of helpless decline.

As long as the main key point of the market can be solved, everything else is still a secondary issue.

Su Yun has focused on developing overseas in recent years, and she doesn't want to knock down other film companies in Xiangjiang before the market declines, and consume the strength of her own people in advance - the prosperity of the market depends on the prosperity of the industry after all. If the company is trash and hot chicken, it won't make much money.

In Su Yun's view, the most fundamental key to revitalizing Xiangjiang Films and building an oriental Hollywood is to try their best to unite Xiangjiang's film companies, starting from the integration of Xiangjiang's entire region, gradually spreading to the mainland and other regions, and then to gain a firm foothold Asia, a market with huge development potential, has formed an oriental film system that is opposite to but dependent on the western film system.

Things like box office and recognition will inevitably increase with the increase of the country's strength.Correspondingly, only by relying on such a strong cultural market can we start the entertainment industry.

But the premise of this route is that you need to have a certain status. Unless you are born to become a super powerful descendant, otherwise you don’t need to predict this point to deploy the original capital accumulated over the years, and you will not be able to resist the suppression of Hong Kong films by the capital market. ——This is not a question of winning if the quality of the film is good, but the market boycott and political and business collusion factors of multiple capitals jointly boycotting Hong Kong films and then vigorously promoting self-made films.

Faced with such an almost unsolvable dilemma, they can only use enough capital as a stepping stone to survive together.

After the market is stabilized, the entire region of Xiangjiang will be transformed.

The power of an international film award with sufficient weight is enough to drive the film-related industries of Xiangjiang to take off in an all-round way, so that Xiangjiang, a "small place" with insufficient resources and area, relies on the film industry and film-related industries The linkage of these entertainment industries has made it a new economic and industrial pillar in the Xiangjiang area, feeding millions of people in the entire area.

In this way, at the time of return, the people above do not need to choose the best position for Xiangjiang, the external window, but can only choose to suppress the development of other regions that are starting to take off, which is a win-win outcome.

The only thing to be solved is the problem of integration - another reason for the decline of Hong Kong movies is that the rise of the real estate industry after the 90s has attracted the attention of most entertainment bigwigs, making them turn their minds to making movies to real estate In this lucrative horror industry.

Making movies to make money?

Earning is relative. It is undeniable that the value of global film production is increasing year by year. However, after deducting various dividends, Su Yun will be able to handle multiple roles from early stage investment to mid-stage director, actor, and post-production. , earning hundreds of millions of dollars a year can be regarded as the top of the sky.

This is not counting the super super long profit statistics distribution period.

On the contrary, if you are engaged in IT and industry, billions or tens of billions a year will not be a problem, and the return of funds will be quicker.

Even after the emergence of the real estate industry from the "off-plan flats" that people love and hate, it is already possible to start at a time when there is almost no profit.

However, unlike stock trading, there are big fish and small shrimps. The high-rise buildings in the real estate industry have always been built on the flesh and blood of countless ordinary people.

As a social animal whose face was full of blood and tears by real estate, Su Yun chooses to join the IT industry again and give up the safer real estate industry. The reason is that IT dogs always prefer technological development, and the second is that they cannot step on countless people's feet. Flesh and blood dominates this point.

Driven by her background in a public housing estate and the future of future generations, she will of course spend some of her funds to buy buildings and land when she has the spare time—even if she can’t beat the ocean of real estate, at least she may build some small boats , catch those who are forced to jump into the sea by high housing prices, so that they can breathe a sigh of relief.

So at the end of the day, her ultimate theme from the start has been all about making money!

Capital is not only the cornerstone of the entertainment business, but also the key foundation for all the careers she wants to do in the future!

This is also the fundamental reason why the system that focuses on entertainment does not interfere with her "side business" - Su Yun's side business is all to pave the way for her future entertainment career.

Ever since, the ambitious Su Yun held two document bags containing contracts, and locked them in the safe with great care.

"Did you know that over the past few days, including the budget that will be invested in the new film project in the future, one-third of your total assets have been lost." Seeing her cautious look, Ovitz got the statistics Afterwards, he opened his mouth and said something.

The total assets of the Su family are more than 1000 million when converted into US dollars. An ordinary person will naturally live without worrying about a few lifetimes, but Su Yun, a child, happens to be in Hollywood, which can sell the most money.

Moreover, the amount of the total assets is calculated by combining Su Yun's current share of future film profits—that is to say, at least half of this figure is still counting the follow-up sales of the film, and it has not been truly calculated. Arrive at Su's account.

The summary is just one sentence: Su Yun has basically arranged for all the activity funds that she can use in the past few months.

"If you lose money, you can earn it again. If you lose the opportunity, it will be difficult to get it back." Su Yun held the pen and gesticulated on the manuscript paper, "Don't worry, Dongying will start selling two versions of Game & Watch soon. , the funds are coming in one after another.”

"Please, don't mention it, I get a headache when I think of that gadget." Ovitz remembered that he took Su Yun's Game&Watch to play when he was bored, but he didn't expect to play like this for a full three hours At that time, I felt lingering fear: this gadget is too addictive!

He absolutely can't touch this thing again, once he touches it, he will easily forget his time and work, which is simply terrifying.

Ovitz has no doubt that Game&Watch can make money. After all, game consoles are all over the world, and not only children but also adults love to play.However, the current game consoles are all big and have a variety of built-in games for playing. It is difficult to estimate how much a small entertainment gadget like Game&Watch can earn.

Just like most people are not optimistic about personal computers nowadays, who obviously already has a mainframe with many functions, who would pay a high price to buy a minicomputer with relatively reduced functions for the sake of size?

Su Yun smiled: "We need to take a long-term view - when many things are first born, people often don't like that they can replace the things they used to, but in the end, they will always unknowingly and gradually overflow. They have completely replaced the old ones."

"Like a telephone?" Ovitz seemed to have realized something, and looked up at the landline next to him.

"Yes, just like a telephone." Su Yun nodded.

"Okay, I won't talk to you about this anymore. A new round of Oscar nominations has come out." Ovitz pinched the new news and analyzed with Su Yun, "Because "The Sixth Sense" was too late in the year The reason why it was released at the end was not able to catch up with this year's Golden Globes, but this year's Oscars are still very face-saving."

"Three nominations—in fact, it might have been four, but it's a pity that Al Pacino has already nominated the best actor for "The Godfather II". Fight for a male lead nomination."

"Oh, then which three nominations did we get?" Su Yun asked curiously.

"Best Original Screenplay, Best Supporting Actress, and Best Editing." Ovitz glanced at the message on the telegram and shook his head, "You're basically out of action."

"There are nominations, it's already very face-saving." Su Yun is the best original screenplay co-signed by Spielberg, and she is considering taking advantage of Spielberg's "insider" to get a nomination-the 75th in 47 This year's Oscars was the year when "The Godfather II" swept the awards circle. In addition, Su Yun already won the female supporting role last year, so it is basically impossible to win the award this year.

However, the script of "The Sixth Sense of Spirituality" is too good in this era, and it is very possible to be nominated after the joint name.

"If I had known that the Oscars were saving face, I wouldn't have pushed you so hard to negotiate a contract for a new movie." Now that there are a few more nominations in hand, with Ovitz's shrewd character and sensitive touch, he immediately thought of Negotiations for new films.

"Don't worry, Alain Delon may be more anxious than us." Su Yun smiled.

I don't know if Alain Delon, who is still in the United States, is in a hurry, but Zhao Rifu from Xiangjiang is not in a hurry at the charity gala where the heroes gather.

Although the box office failure of the horror film "Seven Golden Corpses", which was co-operated with the British Hammer company last year, directly caused other film companies in Hong Kong to dare not get involved in zombie horror themes, but a giant like Zhao's is obviously not affected by this little bit. Fail down.

This year, the movie version of the best-selling novel "The Big Class" that Zhao bought earlier is already preparing to shoot. For this reason, Zhao Rifu directly invested 6000 million Hong Kong dollars.

While the outside business is developing smoothly, Xiangjiang's business is also relatively smooth: Although the box office of a single film is still not as good as Jiahe's "Ghost and Horse Twin Stars", the overall box office is still the annual champion, and many handsome and talented people have been discovered. The agile male star came to shoot Gu Long's martial arts movie.

Zhao's previous masculine martial arts movies are no longer suitable for the current popularity, and Jiahe's kung fu movies have no one to take over for the time being. This gap period just gives Zhao's new Gulong martial arts movie an opportunity to take off!

"I heard that you guys also want to form a new team for kung fu and martial arts movies?" Zhao Rifu said slowly when he saw Zou Yunhua sitting not far from his friends.

Zou Yunhua choked when he heard the words: Jiahe's kung fu movies are not yet comparable to Lu Shaolong, so it's okay if they can't reproduce the glory. Hong Ganbao is already looking for a new way to play, it's only a matter of time.

However, when his friend Luo Wei wanted to help Chen Xuanlong negotiate authorization with Gu Daxia, Gu Daxia mercilessly despised his appearance and said bluntly that his novels were for Di Long, Jiang Dawei, Zheng Zhaoqiu and other handsome actors acted, not for someone like him...

"Yeah, although they are all 'dragons', Dillon and the others are indeed more talented and beautiful." Although they have cooperated seamlessly in the past, they are now facing each other, and Zou Yunhua naturally will not show weakness.

The implication of these words is to allude to the box office reputation that Zhao earns by selling the actor's looks.

Zhao Rifu smiled lightly: "It is indeed rare to have an actor with talent and good looks. Dillon's quality is not so easy to meet."

Hearing Zhao Rifu's thorny reply, Zou Yunhua felt stunned for a while, then suddenly thought of something, and followed his words: "Being worthy of this name, you must have talent and good looks—we Mary is in a foreign country recently, so she plans to cooperate with him..."

"Don't look at me like that, it's either your guy who eats two families, or the guy from France—oh yes, I remember when you signed Dillon's young boy, he didn't call him that name, it was Mr. Zhao From director Zhang's point of view, he looks a bit like Alan Dillon from France, and I hope he will be as popular as Alan Dillon in the future, so that's why he was given this stage name?"

In Hong Kong and Taiwan, Alan Delon is generally translated as Alan Dillon.

Seeing Zhao Rifu's silent response as he sat a little farther away, Zou Yunhua would have almost burst out laughing if the camera hadn't been filming the benevolent people in the front row of them preparing to donate.
