Whether "God of Gamblers" can launch the banner of eternal victory is still unknown, but the broadcast of "Qin Qin Ji" has made ATV's Qiu Degen unable to sit still.
For a long time, ATV's ratings on TV stations have been suppressed by TVB, and now they have produced "The Story of Qin", which has directly pushed ATV's ratings into an abyss.
As the boss of ATV, Qiu Degen had to go to the big boss Wan for help. ATV also owned most of the shares of Wan Wenhuai. In addition to having a headache, Qiu Degen still had a headache.
When Wan Wenhuai suggested that Qiu Degen had better go and meet Li Mubai in person, the boss thought that Li Mubai was just lucky. Moreover, that guy was the screenwriter of the movie, not the TV series. Even though TVB had announced that "Xun Qin Ji"
" was adapted into a TV series by the author himself, and he did not take Li Mubai seriously. To him, Li Mubai was just a newcomer and could not be taken seriously.
However, when "Looking for Qin" was aired on TVB, in less than two days, the ratings had soared to nearly 30. Except for TVB's Miss Hong Kong and Happy Tonight, almost no TV series could achieve such ratings.
Rate.
Even when the most popular "Legend of the Condor Heroes" was aired, TVB's ratings were only in their early thirties.
But look now, "Looking for Qin" has not finished broadcasting, and the ratings have soared to 34. Such ratings can be described as unbelievable. If ATV cannot come up with TV series that can compete, over the years
The effort will turn into a joke.
Fortunately, Li Mubai was very considerate. In his home, Qiu Degen finally met the "Mubai" screenwriter who had never appeared in the media before.
"Mr. Mubai, on behalf of ATV, I sincerely hope you can join."
The two of them chatted for a while, but Li Mubai basically kept an attitude of pretending to be stupid and said nothing about the other party's purpose. In the end, Qiu Degen could no longer remain reserved and had to take the lead in raising his hopes.
Even he knows very well that whoever brings it up first at this time will be led away by the other party. But it is better to be led away than to be suppressed!
"Boss Qiu, thank you for your respect, but are you thinking too much?" Li Mubai was not anxious at all.
Before meeting Qiu Degen, he had already thought about how to face the two giants in Hong Kong.
"We can consider cooperation, but I'm afraid that Boss Qiu won't be able to accept the conditions I offer." Li Mubai lit a cigar.
Recently, Li Mubai found that his love for cigars is getting stronger and stronger. Although they are still tobacco, cigars taste much better than cigarettes, and they look very cool, so they are suitable for showing off.
"I'm willing to listen to Mr. Mubai's opinion." Qiu Degen gritted his teeth and asked for help, so he had to lower his attitude. Although he didn't quite believe that Li Mubai had any other means to allow ATV to defeat TVB,
But before coming, Wrinkle Wenhuai repeatedly told him not to underestimate this young man.
"It's too high to talk about." Li Mubai took a puff of his cigar and said calmly: "I can help ATV create a variety show. If the ratings are 20, I will charge 5% of the revenue. If it exceeds
If it’s thirty, I’ll take 15%. If it’s 40, then I’ll take 30%. If it’s more than 50, then it’ll be divided into 40% and 60%. I’ll take 6%!”
Over fifty?
Qiu Degen almost jumped up on his chair.
Are you kidding? Even the most popular program in Xiangjiang does not have a ratings of more than 40%. Even if you are young and frivolous, there must be a certain level. The Li Mubai in front of you can no longer be described as frivolous.
Qiu Degen felt that using the word arrogance to describe him was lacking. This guy simply didn't know where the sky was and how high he was, so he was so wildly imaginative.
"Don't worry, there is an additional condition." Li Mubai saw Qiu Degen's eyes flickering. He didn't care whether Qiu Degen believed it or not, and continued: "We at Oriental DreamWorks must have priority in signing the contract."
"Mr. Mubai, would it be convenient for you to reveal the content of the program?" Qiu Degen suppressed his dissatisfaction and asked patiently.
"Boss Qiu, you really think too much." Li Mubai stood up with a smile.
Although he didn't mind revealing a little, he also knew that the weight of what he said at this time was still lacking. Of course, if it weren't for this, Li Mubai wouldn't have made such a condition.
"Mr. Mubai, welcome to visit ATV when you have time." Qiu Degen saw that Li Mubai had already put on a show-off attitude, and there was no need for him to stay here any longer.
"What did Li Mubai say?" Wrinkle Wenhuai didn't expect Qiu Degen to come and go so quickly.
From his understanding, it seemed that Li Mubai did not reject ATV or Jiahe. However, Qiu Degen's face did not look good. Could it be that that boy deliberately embarrassed Qiu Degen?
"Arrogant! Whimsical!"
Qiu Degen first confirmed his impression of Li Mubai with two idioms, and then slowly recounted the conversation about Li Mubai's meeting. Although he did not add any fuel to the fire, when he thought of Li Mubai's attitude, he was still very angry.
.
"So, do you think Li Mubai is arrogant?" Wrinkle Wenhuai analyzed the meaning of Li Mubai's expression, and then recalled Wang Jingchuan's words.
"Of course." Qiu Degen angrily picked up the tea cup and took a sip of water. After talking for a long time, his mouth was already dry.
"Do you think it's necessary for him to do this?" Wrinkle Wenhuai didn't say much, and the rest of the meaning still needs to be understood by Qiu Degen himself. After all, he is also a boss, and some words may not have a good effect.
Fortunately, Qiu Degen's relationship with Li Mubai did not break down, which means there are still opportunities for cooperation.
He knew at the first time that "Baby" has earned nearly 20 million US dollars in box office in Hollywood. This achievement is rare even in Hong Kong. As a newcomer in the screenwriting industry, the first step
The film's ability to achieve such results cannot be explained by simple luck.
Just like "Baby", before "God of Gamblers" was officially released, TVB's trailer once again took Hong Kong by storm.
You know, before Zhou Yunfa returned, he was known as a box office poison. After "Shanghai Bund" was released, the films he starred in have never had better results. This also made him a box office poison for a time.
And Andy Lau is even more of a newcomer. Almost no one knows who this handsome guy is.
But Li Mubai chose the first male lead and the second male lead.
The trailer is very short, three minutes, which is Li Mubai's usual style.
Whether it's the hair style or Xiang Huaqiang's cool look, they all left a deep impression on people. Especially in the play, there is a tattooed woman from an island country who shakes dice, and she caught many people's attention almost instantly.
Male eyeball.
After three consecutive days of trailers, "God of Gamblers" was released simultaneously in Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest theaters.
This is Yongsheng, and the relationship with these two theaters is pretty good. This is also closely related to the background of Brother 10. No one wants to offend people in the society, so the two theaters are allowed to release it simultaneously.
The prime cinema chain is still in a wait-and-see stage and is not very optimistic about this movie. And they are also showing "Mr. Zombie" at this time.
The day before the premiere, Guo Danwei, the little girl of the Guo family, called her elder brother Li Mubai.
Now the Guo family knows why Li Mubai gave it to A Yin without even looking at the check. He is still considered a celebrity in Xiangjiang. But Li Mubai has never appeared in front of the media. Everyone knows about Mubai.
I only heard his name but never saw him.
When she found out that this newly released movie was written by Li Mubai, Ayin pulled Yuan Xi and said she wanted to watch Big Brother's movie.
Li Mubai readily agreed to this request, which was not even a request.
With Li Mubai's reputation, a few movie tickets are not a big deal at all.
On the day of the premiere, Yuan Xi, his husband Guo Tianyu, and Guo Danwei appeared at Li Mubai's home.
When A Yin's accident happened, Guo Tianyu was not in Xiangjiang, but ran to the United States. Later, he learned that his precious daughter was fine, and he came back after finishing things in the United States.
Guo Tianyu met Li Mubai for the first time today.
"A Yin, this is a gift from my brother."
Knowing that this girl was coming today, Li Mubai personally selected a Mickey Mouse yesterday. This stuffed Mickey Mouse is quite big, almost as tall as A Yin.
This girl has liked this kind of stuffed toy since she was a child. After seeing Mickey Mouse, she immediately jumped out of her mother's arms. She rushed to Mickey Mouse with her eyes shining brightly and reluctantly hugged him with one hand.
Mickey Mouse put his other hand around Li Mubai's neck and kissed him hard on the cheek.
"It's better to be my brother. I know A Yin likes Mickey." Holding Li Mubai's hand, A Yin was not ready to let go, even though her parents were right opposite.
"How are the generations discussed?" Guo Tianyu also knew that his daughter had always been called brother Li Mubai, but Li Mubai couldn't control himself and his wife by calling them uncle and aunt.
"Let's discuss our own affairs." Li Mubai also liked this cute little girl very much. He patted A Yin's head lovingly and said, "It's almost time, let's go together."
In addition to the director Wang Jing, Yongsheng's Xiang brothers and the crew were all present in the theater. When Xiang Huaqiang saw that it was the eldest young master of the Guo family who came hand in hand with Li Mubai, he secretly rejoiced.
After a while, fortunately, the relationship with Li Mubai did not become tense, and nothing unpleasant happened!
