Chapter 91 Speed ??up your dream
After using the bathroom, return to the reception room.
Xu Ke stood up and handed over the contract: "Xu Sheng, I have thought about it carefully and I am willing to sign the contract."
He is in such a miserable state now that even Wu Siyuan has a headache, fearing that he will trick him into going to his grandma's house.
And Xu Luo is much more generous than Jiahe.
Xu Luo took the contract, glanced at the signature, and said: "I wish you a happy cooperation. Next we will shoot a new work, and the script will be sent to you in a few days."
"I will also clearly write down the actors, and I will also help you find a team to work with. You can start working after you get used to it."
"Okay Xu Sheng." Xu Ke nodded and responded.
A few days later, the script of "Ghost Horses and Stars" was released after revisions by the screenwriters.
As for how to modify it, it is Xuke's business.
What we have to do now is to connect this project together and then package it to Lei Juekun.
Zhou Jiahui just needs to take action on this kind of thing.
He went straight to Mai Jia's company. After a brief introduction, he took out the project and said, "Mai Sheng, our company has a film that already has investment, director, and script. Now it just needs some actors and producers. Are you interested?"
Producers are called producers in the Mainland and are the top managers of movies or TV series. They are fully responsible for "selecting scripts, finding funds, forming teams, and selling movies" and other overall tasks.
The reason why we let the producers out is that, on the one hand, they are professional, and on the other hand, it reduces the other party’s vigilance.
Xu Luo is just the investor.
Mai Jia was confused. It felt like someone said that there is a project that only needs your 500 yuan start-up capital.
But he was still patient, "What kind of script? Can you show it to me?"
Although I met Zhou Jiahui for the first time, I can find out things in the film and television industry by just asking casually.
This company is a little-known company. The only thing that attracts attention is that Zhao Yazhi signed a contract with this company, and I heard that there are also crews from this company filming movies at the Shaw Brothers studio. Other than that, there is nothing worth paying attention to.<
/p>
After receiving the general outline of "Ghost Horses and Many Stars", read it carefully.
Then asked: "Who is the director you are looking for?"
"Xuke." Zhou Jiahui said.
Mai Jia was slightly interested, "I've heard about it. Someone told me a long time ago that this person is very talented, but what I want to know is, when you prepare such a script, do you want me to play a role in it or to produce it?" <
/p>
"Play the role of Capone and serve as the producer." Zhou Jiahui said, "This film is a joint venture between our two companies. If you have spare money, you can each invest 50%."
Maijia became energized after hearing this, and of course he wanted to use the name of the company to produce this work.
And he holds 49% of the shares, so he can get a lot of money.
But after thinking carefully, he said: "Where are the theaters?"
"Princess Jin." Zhou Jiahui said, "Now that you have no movie to release, Princess Jin will not refuse this work, and it can also bring you profits."
Mai Jia was not someone like Fatty Wang who was in urgent need of money. He frowned slightly and asked, "How will the final share be calculated?"
Zhou Jiahui said: "If we each invest 50%, then after deducting taxes and theater chain shares, we will invest 55%. If you have other ideas, we can also talk about it."
The conditions are very relaxed and not so harsh.
First, lose money to earn shouting, and break into the enemy. When you are among me, and I am among you, I am afraid that the giants of Xinyi City will not be able to support them.
Maijia thought seriously: "I need to think about it, and the company is not mine alone. I need to talk to other people."
"Waiting for the good news from Maisheng." Zhou Jiahui left the contract, "This is the contract issued by our company. Whether you are interested in it or not, Maisheng, please give me a call."
After Zhou Jiahui left, Mai Jia called Shi Tian and Huang Baiming to discuss.
Huang Baiming suddenly felt that this idea was a bit familiar. He seemed to have conceived it someday but did not write it out. Now it has been written into a script, as if his luck has been taken away.
After some discussion, the three of them felt that they could cooperate.
Although I dare not say that this work will make money, and the funds they used to make the film were invested by Princess Jin, the current situation is a win-win situation.
Even if it is a loss, Princess Jin only loses a small part of it, not to mention that they can also give Princess Jin one more film and become a stable film source for Princess Jin.
They are all relationships of mutual utilization, and we can cooperate as long as it is beneficial.
After the negotiation was approved, the two parties signed the contract.
"Gui Ma Zhi Duo Xing" is jointly produced by Fendou and Unicorn, each investing 50%. Unicorn provides the script director and some actors, and Fendou provides the remaining actors and producers. The final share is after deducting taxes and theaters.
55 open for both sides.
Actors include Mai Jia, Lin Zixiang, etc. Xu Ke invited Teddy Robin from Zhucheng Film and Television to play the role at Xu Luo's insistence.
Previously, Mai Jia and Shi Tian asked Teddy Robin to join the company, but the latter did not agree. He felt that they were gangsters, or the kind of Chinatown gangsters who wore minks, carried guns, and were foul-mouthed and bad-tongued.
p>
But Xu Ke has some friendship with Teddy Robin, so he came over to take a look.
Now that the entire project was complete, Mai Jia took the project to Lei Juekun.
Lei Juekun was also at a loss. How could anyone come to discuss cooperation before the movie is even finished?
However, since there is a film, and it is still a joint production, in line with the principle of making money and not being a bastard, Lei Juekun immediately agreed to make it and release it.
Because the other company didn't negotiate any conditions, they asked Mai Jia to come and say hello in advance, saying that they had a film to shoot and they just wanted to keep a schedule.
……
It’s early August.
In a room with an area of less than 1,000 square feet in the old unit of Lei's Company, Xinyi City was officially opened.
Mai Jia, Shi Tian and Huang Baiming also officially invested in New Art City Film Company.
On the second day after the opening of New Art City, the filming of "Gui Ma Zhi Duo Xing" was announced.
As the producer, Zhou Jiahui replaced Xu Luo to attend the opening ceremony.
Time management master Xu Luo took turns to accompany Zhao Yazhi, Guan Zhilin, and Michelle. A few days later, they were going to the UK to publish the revised version of "Harry Potter". By the way, they met with Lishi's major shareholders and asked about the shares.
In addition to the major shareholders, Lishi's shareholders also include small shareholders such as Jardine Matheson, Standard Chartered, and the Kadoorie family.
But these are nothing to worry about. If you want to purchase the remaining shares and take full control of Lishi, you don’t need to spend too much thought.
As soon as the negotiations began, countless people wanted to flee.
Although Lishi currently has huge development potential and the price is quite high, once the Australian consortium takes over and starts messing around, Lishi will be broken.
Now Xu Luo has only 100 million Hong Kong dollars in funds available, and the company has only 30 million Hong Kong dollars left in its books, because other funds have been used to purchase Jianing shares and Jardine shares.
"Fashion" and "FHM" can earn about 1.5 million per month. The money burned by "People's Livelihood" was wiped out by Ship Wang's boldness. Coupled with the advertising fees of Ship Wang and several advertisers at this time, it was at a level of
The state of breaking even.
After handing over Hong Kong affairs to Chen Shurong, Xu Luo embarked on a journey to England again.
There are two things in this trip. The first one is that in addition to publishing "Harry Potter", I also want to acquire a publishing house.
Another thing is that he is worried that Lishi's parent company has already entrusted British banks such as HSBC and Standard Chartered to carry out business matching, and by then the hot companies will not be able to catch up.
Still walking alone.
Brown Hotel.
Xu Luo is reading the newspaper in the room.
Now when you first arrive in a certain place, relying on newspapers is the most effective way to understand current affairs, because you can see a lot of information in newspapers.
There is information on recruitment, marriage, divorce, obituaries, missing person notices, missing property notices, store transfers, etc.
The front page of the Guardian in your hand contains big news.
"Due to labor disputes, Thomson Group announced that it would auction all of The Times, The Sunday Times and its supplements. If a suitable buyer cannot be found before May 1981, the newspaper will be completely closed."
This labor dispute started last year and is mainly a political struggle between management and the labor union.
Among the British trade unions, the printing union has greater power than other unions and can basically control the entire process of printing production.
So Thomson wanted to take back his rights, which triggered this fight.
Although the company is expected to have a loss of 15 million pounds so far, there is no shortage of buyers. Unfortunately, Xu Luo has no money, otherwise he plans to steal Murdoch's luck.
Let that Australian guy go back and raise kangaroos.
Xu Luo scanned the newspapers one by one.
I was quickly attracted by a piece of news.
Chapter completed!
