Not only Taiwan, but also the general distribution agents of the Philippines, Malaysia and Singapore were all taken over by Fang Ruohai. Fang Ruohai firmly believed that Xiao Ran would soon learn this. However, he did not think that Xiao Ran could be knocked down by this blow.
.
In fact, Fang Ruohai didn't know much about the film industry. Apart from appreciating it, he was simply a film illiteracy. Therefore, in the early days, he didn't realize the importance of distribution at all, and he didn't even know that a hasty release might lead to the failure of the film industry.
The company fights back.
However, he soon realized the power that might come from the film industry, so when Xiao Ran went to Macau to shoot "Dark Flower", he quietly acquired New Art City and two major studios, as well as a newspaper and
A television station.
At that time, he realized that every industry has a small circle. In the circle, outsiders are allowed to pick flowers and pass them in, but they are not allowed to go in to pick flowers. So, he very cleverly made up a lie-Haisen Company
About to acquire MGM.
This is of course a lie. The US$300 million invested in the movie is already a limit. Fang Ruohai believed that if Xiao Ran learned the news, he would definitely understand this. So, he chose a time when Xiao Ran was not around to do this.
thing.
Fortunately, Jiahe and the others believed the big lie that Fang Ruohai boasted. Fang Ruohai had already figured it out, using Haisen Company's billions of dollars in assets, plus some little tricks, to provoke Jiahe and Debao to fight against each other.
The Phantom was dissatisfied with its rapid expansion. As a result, an alliance was reached without difficulty.
Golden Harvest clearly understands the concept of being able to acquire a Hollywood film company, which means they have a strong distribution network. At that time, their films can be successfully distributed around the world through this line to make huge profits. It is indeed
If Violence could really be distributed globally, with the low cost of Hong Kong films, it would be able to make at least twenty times the profit.
Of course, Fang Ruohai thought he could hold his own in the past, but after two or three months, Haile Entertainment Group's films did produce several hits. However, Fang Ruohai gradually realized that something was wrong, even though Xinyi City itself
They have their own sales channels, but they are limited to a few small areas. In South Korea and Japan, they are all sold through Jiahe.
After he thought about it carefully, he soon realized that the release would be an extremely important thing. He thought it was not too late for him to think of this, because he found that Xiao Ran was extremely unusual and did not do anything to Haile.
Although this had caused Fang Ruohai to live through some days where he couldn't eat well or sleep well, Xiao Ran's reaction finally told him that everything he had done before had no impact on Phantom, and he was just a villain in vain.
However, thinking of this, Fang Ruohai smiled. Although he was an enemy, he admired Xiao Ran more and more now. He tried his best to prevent the news of poaching from being revealed, and even delayed the poaching plan for this reason.
, resulting in a significant reduction in power.
But he had to admit that Phantom was indeed not affected at all. It was just a bit of administrative chaos in the first few days, but it was quickly managed in an orderly manner by the general manager Wei Dongling. And the few guys recruited by Fang Ruohai are now all
I have held important positions in Haile Entertainment and have done very well.
What makes Fang Ruohai depressed is that the corner was poached, but Xiao Ran soon promoted other newcomers. Those newcomers quickly got started with the business and did a great job. I have to admit that in terms of talent reserve and vision, Fang Ruohai is very good.
Ruohai considers himself inferior to Xiao Ran.
He was indeed responsible for the underworld problem this time, but it was not him who planned it, but Fang Poli. It was Fang Poli who found Wang Yang in the United States and said something to him. Then Fang Ruohai began to implement the plan.
Not only must we seize the opportunity to win the Taiwan agency rights that Xiao Ran has been unable to negotiate, but we must also win over Japan and South Korea.
Although distribution rights are one of them, Fang Ruohai really wanted people from the three major groups to work in the film industry. Because Fang Ruohai realized that except for the company's own films, he had no way to get films from other production companies.
to release. So, this can be said to be killing two birds with one stone.
Of course, if Xiao Ran can be killed by the killer hired by Wang Yang, the whole plan will be more perfect. At that time, with the power of the underworld, he can embezzle the production company controlled by Phantom in one fell swoop and win the distribution rights.
Become a large company that can compete with Jiahe.
Although Fang Ruohai didn't like this method, very much, he had to admit that his father's method seemed to be very effective. What made Fang Poli regretful, and made Fang Ruohai resentful but also admired was that Xiao Ran was not only fine, but also
As if he had expected this day, he took care of three major societies in one night and severely shaved the heads of those who disobeyed.
It's even better now. He has obtained the distribution rights of one more place with Xiao Ran. Let's see how Xiao Ran copes with the fight. Now he is quietly drinking red wine, enjoying the best caviar and looking forward to Xiao Ran's counterattack...
What counterattack can Xiao Ran have? In fact, there is nothing to counterattack. There is not only one theater chain in Taiwan, but of course there can be more than two agents: him and Golden Harvest. For Xiao Ran, this is really not a loss. The only problem is
The thing is, since Haile has obtained the distribution rights, it means that it has the ability to compete with Phantom.
When Haile Entertainment was still distributing films according to the original traditional distribution model, Xiao Ran didn't take it seriously at all. Because he knew very well that if Haile continued to work like that, he would eventually be squeezed out by the company that controlled the distribution rights.
.But the situation is different now, Xiao Ran must pay attention to this issue.
After explaining some post-production concepts, Xiao Ran hurried back to the company. Wei Dongling looked very serious now, because he also knew very well what level Haile would rise to after he had grasped the release: "What do you think we should do now?
?”
Xiao Ran calmly remembered the method he had thought of a few days ago to deal with Haile Group. In fact, the method was very simple, but it was by no means simple. That was to unite the four major companies to suppress the distribution of Haile. Now that Haile has taken
Once the distribution rights are reached, this method must change.
"What will happen if all the production companies in Hong Kong don't provide films to Haile?" Xiao Ran stared at Wei Dongling and smiled faintly: "I think that within half a year at most, the theater chain will have to cancel its contract with the company due to shortage of supplies.
Haile’s contract!”
"This method is good..." Wei Dongling shouted, but soon lowered his head: "However, we only control one-third of the production companies now, and it is difficult to control all the films in Hong Kong and exclude Haile."
Xiao Ran rubbed his nose. What Wei Dongling mentioned was indeed on point. How could he get all the production companies in Hong Kong to unite? Wei Dongling shook his head and said, "Originally, the Japanese and Koreans were just waiting and watching in order to take advantage of the situation."
The strongest one is probably leaning towards Haile now!"
Xiao Ran continued to rub his nose, and now he suddenly felt as if his nose was leaking. The question raised by Wei Dongling was indeed on point. Koreans and Japanese were just waiting to see their four major companies in Hong Kong (Tianluo's strength was only recognized by Xiao Ran
) in order to achieve greater benefits. Now if Phantom loses, then I'm afraid the Japanese and Koreans will make a choice they don't want to see.
Before Phantom officially got involved in distribution, the distribution situation in Hong Kong was very bleak, and it mainly relied on film studios to come to the door. Only Golden Harvest controlled a small amount of the market, and when Phantom began to make efforts to get involved in distribution, only in the first two
In the first quarter, a total of nine films from other production companies were released. They were only distributed in a few small countries and regions and made a profit of 80 million.
Such a number is undoubtedly very surprising. If it can win Taiwan, Japan and South Korea, this number may be doubled. And even if Phantom does not invest at all in the production and just relies on such distribution,
It made a profit of 80 million. If you include some films invested by Phantom, this number can only be bigger.
Therefore, companies with financial resources and connections have begun to engage in distribution. Unfortunately, this job is obviously not something ordinary companies can do. Therefore, now basically Golden Harvest, Phantom and some scattered film companies control the entire
Issuance market.
"Leave it to him. I believe Jiahe's patience is almost over. Now that he wins the distribution rights, Jiahe may not look down upon him!" After thinking about it for a long time, Xiao Ran didn't have an effective way to deal with this matter.
You can blame him for not being prepared enough.
"Are you sure?" Wei Dongling stared at Xiao Ran with wide eyes in disbelief. Last time Xiao Ran didn't react to poaching, which made him feel very strange. But this time he still endured it. That was simply a miracle: "
You know the result of such laissez-faire is that Haile can expand rapidly as long as it obtains the agency rights of a local production company!"
Xiao Ran figured it out. There was no need for him to continue to be entangled with the Fang family like this. Otherwise, as long as both parties were alive, they would be entangled for a lifetime. He had never thought about forcing Fang Ruohai to death, nor did he want to fight Fang Ruohai during the company's expansion.
That will only hold the company back.
Just like what he said at the beginning, as long as he expands overseas and domestic markets, it doesn't matter if the Hong Kong local market is just a ball. The most important thing is that he remembered that his original intention was not to drive away Jue.
Fang Ruohai deliberately let him enter the market to expand the market.
However, he still admired Fang Ruohai. It was amazing that a guy who didn't understand movies could figure out the key to this industry in such a short time. Glancing at Wei Dongling, Xiao Ran said calmly and confidently: "I'm sure.
Don’t forget, the reason we let him in is to help expand the market for Hong Kong films, and if we were able to let him in in the first place, we will definitely be able to force him out.”
"As for Taiwan, I'll go and talk in person tomorrow!" Xiao Ran's tone was unusually understated: "Japan and South Korea are easy to solve. As long as we can ensure excellent supply of goods, they will definitely come to us. The key depends on the summer vacation!
"
Under Wei Dongling's thoughtful expression, Xiao Ran smiled mysteriously and said slowly: "What's more, it's not like we can't do anything."
Pan Disheng was very confused as to what Xiao Ran wanted to do with him. Moreover, Xiao Ran did it so secretly that he was afraid that others would find out. Just out of curiosity, he was willing to meet Xiao Ran.
Xiao Ran personally went to Pan DiSheng's home to visit him. When he saw Pan DiSheng, Xiao Ran laughed and shook hands with him and said, "I'm so sorry, I don't have time to rush there in person on your wedding day!"
Pan Disheng and Yang Ziqiong had already gotten married in February this year. Xiao Ran had not passed by at that time. Of course, it was impossible for them to pass. At that time, Pan Disheng had just betrayed the agreement with Xiao Ran two months ago. Thinking of this, Xiao Ran couldn't help but sigh.
There are quite a few combinations.
In January this year, Zhong Zhentao and Zhang Xiaohui got married, and Master Liu Jialiang also married the actor Weng Jingjing in the industry. Liu Jialing also broke up with Xu Dashao. By October, Mao Mao is likely to get married. Historically, Huang Rihua also
Getting married at the end of this year.
Pan Disheng was as cool and cold as ever. He asked Xiao Ran to sit down and then forced a smile: "Mr. Xiao, you are so busy, of course you are not free."
"Stop talking nonsense!" Xiao Ran knew very well that Pan Disheng didn't like to talk about things too far, so he said straight to the point: "Ah Sheng, what promise did Fang Ruohai make in the first place that made you allow him to enter the scene, and
Are you coming together to deal with the Phantom?"
Pan Di was stunned. Xiao Ran's words were too direct. Suddenly, a trace of embarrassment was squeezed out of his indifferent expression. He hesitated before saying: "A Ran, I'm afraid you have misunderstood..."
Xiao Ran showed a rare expression of impatience and stared at Pan Di with a really interesting look: "Fang Ruohai said he wanted to acquire a Hollywood film company and then distribute it for you, right?"
His tone was more affirmative than asking. Even though Pan Di was a calm-minded businessman, he couldn't help being surprised at this moment: "Aran, please don't misunderstand..."
"Originally I came here to talk with good intentions, but now that you are not even willing to tell the truth, it is pointless to continue talking!" Xiao Ran looked at Pan Disheng with great regret. If Pan Disheng was only of this level, then there is no point in talking about it anymore!
He is no longer worthy of being his competitor.
Seeing Xiao Ran stand up and walk towards the door, Pan Disheng had countless thoughts running through his mind. He was deeply afraid that Phantom could develop to where it is today in just one year. He was not the only one.
, he, Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang from Jiahe mentioned Phantom and Xiao Ran with deep fear.
In their view, this is simply a miracle. They are not afraid of talents, but they are afraid of miracles, because miracles are irresistible. However, Pan Disheng knows better that he has been losing for a while in the alliance of the three major companies, and he has lost to himself.
human.
