The day after Li Mubai held a press conference, Wang Jing rushed to his office early in the morning. Because of the popularity of "God of Gamblers", Yongsheng was ready to pursue the victory and shoot several series of films.
.
As the creator of the original script, Li Mubai had the right to speak on this. Wang Jing also had such a plan. This fat man showed up at Oriental DreamWorks early in the morning.
"Two news, one is good, the other is better, which one should I listen to first?" Fatty's face had been a little stiff when he smiled recently, but he knew very well who brought him all this.
"Come here, tell me what you have to say." Li Mubai leaned on the boss's chair and stretched lazily. Although there have been scandals about him flying all over the sky these days, this guy is not worried at all. He was still there last night.
After spending a good night with Huo Wenxi, this guy didn't get home until around four o'clock in the morning. He didn't sleep well that night. He met the fat man so early in the morning and was still a little sleepy.
"Okay, I won't be too pretentious. Let me tell you something that you should be interested in." The fat man also came and got straight to the point.
Just after Li Mubai issued a statement yesterday, in addition to Yongsheng's support, Xiang Huaqiang almost set a newspaper that reported Li Mubai's scandal on fire. And he got a piece of news from the boss, that is
The photo was not taken by their newspaper reporter. Instead, a mysterious guy mailed the photo to the newspaper. As for who the mysterious guy is, we still don’t know. But with the participation of the society, I believe it is only a matter of time to find out.
This was really good news for Li Mubai. He smiled and asked the fat man to convey his gratitude. But he also understood that people must ask for something if they are polite. If there is no relationship of interest, he would
Hua Qiang would definitely not do such a thing.
As expected, the fat man then conveyed Xiang Huaqiang's thoughts.
Li Mubai was not surprised by this, but he did not provide Fatty with a script this time. Instead, he briefly talked about the story outline of "The Gambler". There were many ideas in it that were similar to Wang Jing's. It's just that Li Mubai
The story told is more full.
Although he didn't get the script, Wang Jing still gained a lot. Before leaving, Li Mubai gave Wang Jing another arduous task.
Among the corners he wanted to poach, there were several who were from wireless training classes. Although Huo Wenxi had already contacted them, Huo Wenxi's face alone was obviously not enough in Wireless. Although Li Mubai was well-known,
But Shao Daheng's status in Xiangjiang is far beyond what Li Mubai can compare with.
"Young Master Li, Brother Li, are you asking me to help you?" After listening to Li Mubai's request, Wang Jing's face turned ugly. He said in a pleading tone: "Uncle Li, are you asking me to help myself?"
Dig a grave and then jump in. If my father knew that I helped you dig people, do you think he would beat me to death?"
"Fat man, I didn't ask you to poach big-name wireless stars. Is it as serious as you said?" Li Mubai laughed angrily at this guy's expression. The fat man's words were probably a bit too exaggerated.
"Don't tell me you don't know. Now, as long as the actor you choose is from TVB or any other company, he will treat it as a treasure." Wang Jing said in embarrassment: "I suggest you better find a film and television company.
Well, it will be easier to poach people this way. Otherwise, the resistance you will encounter will be even greater."
"It's not that I haven't thought about what you said, but I still say that, I will never open a film and television company." Li Mubai's attitude is very determined. If he really opens a film and television company, then he will face a lot of pressure.
It will be even bigger. By then he will definitely have to choose between Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest, and there is also a Golden Princess Cinema in Xiangjiang. This situation of three parts of the world will only have greater benefits for Li Mubai, and there will be more
Lots of choices.
"I'll try my best." Although Wang Jing was a little embarrassed, there was nothing he could do.
Although Shaw Brothers is still famous, it has declined in terms of movies. In the past two years, Shaw Brothers has basically not produced any decent movies. It is said that Shaw Brothers has already had the idea of renting out theaters.
.
Although it has not been confirmed yet, there is no smoke without fire. There are many people who are eyeing the Shaw Brothers Cinema chain. For Li Mubai, this partnership is a good opportunity.
Before leaving, Wang Jing regarded the news as a gift and quietly told Li Mubai his analysis. He hoped that Li Mubai could take over the Shaw Brothers theater chain so that he would not be restrained by the theater chain. In addition,
His films were very popular, so it was only a matter of time before he rose to prominence.
Li Mubai thanked Wang Jing for the news he brought to him, and after sending the fat man away, he really started to calculate the theater chain of Shaw Brothers.
But at this moment, a call came from He Guanchang, inviting Li Mubai to Jiahe, saying that they had something important to discuss.
After hanging up the phone, Li Mubai took the script of "Rush Hour" and the four new bodyguards to the downstairs of Jiahe.
It has to be said that Li Mubai still has a lot of face. In addition to He Guanchang personally welcoming Li Mubai's arrival outside, Qiu Degen also appeared in the welcoming procession.
It seems like it’s not a thing!
When he saw Qiu Degen, Li Mubai guessed something like 70 to 80. However, he didn't know it clearly. After a few brief greetings outside, he came to Qiu Degen's office.
In addition to these two big guys, Cheng Long was also sitting nervously in the office at this time.
"Uncle He, I have brought the script." After Li Mubai sat down, he took out the script that he had already written in his bag. This time the script was more detailed than the previous one. In addition to the script, there were
A shot-by-shot script.
In other words, as long as the director is not too stupid and shoots according to Li Mubai's abbreviations, then nothing will happen.
He Guanchang did not expect that Li Mubai would be so meticulous in his work, nor did he expect that he would send the book over without even discussing how to cooperate.
This is not only a kind of trust, but also Li Mubai's courage. Not everyone has this kind of self-confidence. In addition to talent, it also requires a kind of magnanimity.
"I won't say anything pretentious. Let's talk about our cooperation." He Guanchang put away the script. He had to admire Li Mubai's methods and put him on a completely equal footing with himself.
"As for the actors, I believe that Jiahe can choose the right one." Li Mubai also said directly without being pretentious: "I have chosen the director of this drama, Wu Yusen. I already explained this at the press conference. The rest
The next issue is investment.”
After talking about investment, Li Mubai stopped talking. He had already given Jiahe a choice before, and today he just wanted to hear the final result of Jiahe's negotiation. No matter which one it was, it would not exceed Li Mubai's expectations.
"The investment in Wumen is half, and we will share the final box office according to this, with each accounting for 50%. This includes Southeast Asia and Europe and the United States. I wonder if Mr. Mubai can accept it?" He Guanchang threw away the final result of the discussion directly.
This is their limit. As for what Li Mubai originally said was that the overseas box office would open at 40% or 60%, this feasibility basically does not exist. After all, Jiahe still needs to open up some relationships in the early stage.
All the expenses have been accounted for by Jiahe. After calculation, this is not a small amount.
Although it is not a big problem for Golden Harvest to come up with 50 million on their own, after Hollywood's failure, their plans to invest in blockbusters and enter Hollywood have been cast a shadow.
Li Mubai seemed to see Jiahe's worries and did not dwell too much on this issue. And He Guanchang now had to accept a special situation, that is, as long as it is Li Mubai's script, the director or actors must follow Li Mubai's arrangements
.There is no way, who let his script have great appeal, and He Guanchang found that as long as it was mentioned that the script was written by Li Mubai, no matter the director or the actor, there was no hesitation at all.
The movie matter has basically been settled, and the remaining details will naturally be discussed by the vice president of Oriental DreamWorks. This vice president is also a character that Li Mubai dug out from the vast crowd, but no one has ever heard of it.
He despised this person because Li Mubai had always had a piercing eye. Some even said that Li Mubai had a pair of eyes of God.
When he saw that Jiahe's problem was almost solved, Qiu Degen said with a smile: "Mr. Li can't favor one over the other."
Last time Li Mubai mentioned a variety show to Qiu Degen, but at that time Qiu Degen felt that no matter how evil Li Mubai was, he would not be able to have more awesome ideas in TV production. The most important thing is that Li Mubai was still
It is proposed that Oriental DreamWorks should have the first right to sign contracts in the end. This is not good news for ATV.
Now it seems that TVB has left ATV with no more choices. Shaw Brothers has completely reduced its film production, and even the news has spread that theaters will be rented out. If there are no more programs that can compete with TVB,
I'm afraid ATV's ratings will drop to a freezing point.
"Mr. Qiu, this is the program planning." Li Mubai came prepared.
When he held a press conference, ATV also showed a lot of support. Li Mubai is not a person who doesn't appreciate gratitude. Although he is returning a favor, Li Mubai has not forgotten that he is a businessman, and feelings belong to feelings, and money belongs to them.
Return the money.
"Mr. Li, thank you, I really appreciate it." As a senior TV person, after reading Li Mubai's detailed plan, with his most professional judgment, he seemed to have seen the outcome of ATV's complete defeat of TVB in the ratings.
.
However, he was relatively calm. He did not believe that Li Mubai would provide such a perfect idea to ATV for free. Then he generously expressed what kind of price he had to pay to obtain this variety show.
