"No, no, no, you are wrong!" Xiao Ran sat opposite Lucas, chuckled and shook his fingers: "If I want to buy it, the target will not be the earth, but the moon. This will be the first one to enter space.
Steps, what do you think?"
Lucas was speechless, thinking that this guy really wanted to buy a planet! Thinking of this, he suddenly realized that Xiao Ran was not talking about a planet, but a metaphor that people dare not do things, think about people, and the goal is to
Take a longer view.
His eyes suddenly lit up, and he stared at Xiao Ran hard, trying to find some clues on his face. Unfortunately, Xiao Ran was already an expert at controlling his expression and eyes, and he couldn't see any difference at all.
something comes out.
"Okay, Mr. Xiao, I think you can tell me why you asked me to come to Hong Kong!" Lucas spread his hands, thinking that Xiao Ran is really a cunning businessman: "I don't want to play charades with you!"
"Of course, I don't like playing charades either!" As soon as these words came out, Xiao Ran burst into laughter. He must have played a lot of charades: "What do you think is the most profitable thing to do in the world? Tell me!"
This answer is really not easy to answer. Is it arms trafficking or drug trafficking? Lucas thought for a while before answering: "Arms trafficking is the most profitable in the world, I think it should be like this!"
Xiao Ran chuckled and shook his finger gently: "No, the most profitable thing in the world is monopoly! Only monopoly can control everything in your hands and convert the goods in your hands into maximum benefits. You understand what I mean.
"
I do understand, but what does this mean? Student Lu had a headache. He picked up the wine glass and took a sip. Then he stared at Xiao Ran in confusion and said, "Mr. Xiao, you'd better tell the truth. You know I don't like to hide my head and show my tail!"
Xiao Ran couldn't help laughing. This guy is really interesting. I really don't know how he pulled the light and magic to such glory in the future. He nodded to Lucas, walked to the window together, stared out of the window and said: "George
, I can see what is on the other side of the edge of the sea, and you can also see it. Why should we kill each other instead of cooperating and monopolizing it?"
Lucas suddenly realized that after having been arguing for a long time, it turned out that Xiao Ran wanted to cooperate with him in computer special effects and play an industry monopoly. Thinking of Xiao Ran's words just now, he couldn't help but feel excited. Monopoly is indeed the most profitable in the world.
He thought about it in his mind and concluded that this deal would do no harm to him. First, not everyone at Light and Magic planned to resign and follow him. Many people were willing to stay because the working conditions there were very good. No.
I don’t admit it, but in terms of working environment and treatment, Xiao Ran is the best for these technical people.
Second, Xiao Ran's financial resources are definitely a big help, and playing with technology is inherently a bottomless pit, so financial resources are undoubtedly a great support. If Xiao Ran had directly proposed cooperation or increased capital, Lucas would never have objected.
However, this also increased his confusion. In fact, Xiao Ran could have directly negotiated cooperation with him at the beginning. It was not difficult to obtain the absolute controlling rights of Light Magic and Skywalker. Why did he need to fully acquire them?
He couldn't help but shook his head, thinking that maybe this Eastern Devil had too much money to spend. After thinking about it for a moment, he nodded and agreed with Xiao Ran's proposal: "I agree with you, but do you think we can
How long will the monopoly last?”
"George, not everyone in this world can have a transcendent vision like us!" Xiao Ran smiled softly, turned to stare at Lucas and said: "As long as we can keep walking in front of others, we can always maintain it.
Our monopoly!”
"Do you think there is anyone who can surpass the combination of light magic and vision?" Xiao Ran's question is remarkable. After the merger of light magic and vision, the technical strength may not increase much, but with Luca
With Si's leadership, history can return to its original track.
What is worthy of appreciation is that Xiao Ran did not mention the special effects team at all. Don't underestimate the Phantom special effects team. In terms of financial resources, there is only one with stronger financial resources than Light and Magic. In terms of manpower, the special effects team is the place where talents are at their peak. Now they have won over some
With the arrival of the original light demon and Xiao Ran's strategic goal guidance, future achievements will definitely not be due to the so-called alliance.
In this way, Xiao Ran has truly controlled the world's special effects production for at least ten years. This is a real monopoly. For Lucas, this is really not a monopoly, or it can be considered a monopoly in Hollywood.
The matter was settled in this way. Lucas Vision was completely integrated into Light and Magic, and Phantom took 60% of the controlling interest. Of course, this company is also managed by Mr. Lu, and he can do whatever he likes.
Xiao Ran will never interfere with specific matters.
When Lucas left happily, he asked Xiao Ran a question: "Why didn't you give me the same conditions as them? I would definitely agree to it then!"
This sentence made the smile in Xiao Ran's eyes grow stronger and stronger, but in the end, Student Lu still couldn't get the answer, because he found that Xiao Ran's eyes were too similar to last time. Seeing Lucas leaving, Xiao Ran couldn't help but
He laughed, he finally won a battle. He had been working so hard these past few days, and now he felt relieved.
For Xiao Ran, the acquisition of Light and Magic is not over until now. Why not directly discuss the equity allocation with Lucas? Xiao Ran smiled lightly. If his future strategic focus is in North America, then he will definitely not acquire a full share of the company at that time.
However, Xiao Ran's strategic focus is on Hong Kong and the Mainland. If Light and Magic is placed in North America, and he does not have such a competitive special effects company in his own territory, it will definitely be fatal. The last time he acquired Light and Magic and Tianjin
The purpose of Monkey is to get some talents. There are people who can do anything in Light and Magic, as well as people who make models and do other things. This is exactly what he wants.
In terms of special effects, the special effects team is already leading the world, but in terms of models and other aspects, it is definitely more than one beat behind Light and Magic. Now that he has got talents who are willing to come over, Xiao Ran has obtained a special effects company that can compete with Light and Magic in the future.
This is what he wants. He knows that Lucas will definitely do special effects again, and he also knows that he can poach quite a few people. Therefore, he has been waiting for Mr. Lu to make a comeback before discussing the merger. In this way, he got what he wanted
He needed the talents and technology, and Lucas also got the financial resources he wanted. It can be said that everyone is happy.
Hong Kong is huge in Hong Kong, but in Southeast Asia, it is definitely just a dead fish. The four major companies control 99% of the distribution of Hong Kong films, and the remaining 1% is due to the unwillingness of the four major companies
Phantom alone controls more than 50% of the films distributed, and the distribution network has reached every corner of Southeast Asia. Of course, this is limited to the places it can reach. We cannot let the movie theaters build cinemas in North Korea.
Bar!
For Xiao Ran, the only thing left is how to crush Hongguo, and then fully enter the mainland and European markets at the same time. The final step is to target Hollywood, although he hopes that he can complete all this as soon as possible so that he can have time to retire with his wife.
But this obviously cannot be rushed.
Hongguo caused quite a stir when it was founded. Just when everyone was wondering how Xiao Ran would deal with Hongguo, everything gradually calmed down. Neither Phantom nor the three major companies had anything against Hongguo, and even not long after,
Shaw Brothers was reborn in Metropolis, but the four giants were indifferent, which was extremely confusing.
However, precisely because Shaw Brothers was reborn through the Metropolis, the theater chain rented by Debao had to be shared with Hong Kong and the Metropolis, causing a film to be released within 20 days of its release. This forced Pan Disheng to put many
The film was released in Lui Kaitai's Taihang Cinemas, but because the Metropolitan, Hong Kong and Taihang Cinemas had no films for the time being, there was a rare calm in the Hong Kong film industry.
Mo Huaien is confused, very confused. A month has passed, and Xiao Ran still has no counterattack, and is still producing and releasing films smoothly. It doesn't matter that there are no big stars, because there are many artists under the stars who can't get ahead. In short films
In just two months, Phantom released eight films, turning six otherwise unknown actors into regulars in newspapers.
Mo Huaien now couldn't understand what Xiao Ran was playing. He had always been afraid of Xiao Ran, not only because of Xiao Ran's financial resources, but also because of his scheming and methods. Before Mo Huaien entered the scene, the relationship between Xiao Ran and Lin Qingxia was exposed.
From that day on, I started investigating Xiao Ran.
According to the investigation report, Xiao Ran suddenly emerged in 1985 and had never shown any talent before. Then he cooperated with the Fang family, but unexpectedly ended up splitting up. The subsequent history of his fortune is extremely legendary.
, broke with the Fang family, and settled the underworld overnight, forcing Haisen Group, which had tens of billions of assets, to sell Haile at a very low price.
There were only three points in Mo Huaien's eyes: Xiao Ran's scheming when fighting against the Fang family, his cunning when dealing with the Japanese and Jiahe, and his thunderous means of driving away Huang Yinglong. He thought that these three points were enough to make him win.
Xiao Ran became a successful businessman.
He felt that the most terrifying thing was not the thunderous method when dealing with Huang Yinglong, but Xiao Ran's scheming. Xiao Ran, who had always been sure of victory, delayed it for half a year, leaving the sharp-edged Haile to bear most of the external focus, while Phantom
Consolidate and develop silently in the dark.
He often had a feeling that he was Fang Ruohai now, a Fang Ruohai waiting to be slaughtered. Although he didn't know where this feeling came from, he was still nervous for a while. He checked again and again, but there was still no movement from Xiao Ran. Only then did he feel that he was Fang Ruohai.
It made his rabbit courage relax a little, but this feeling still bothered him.
He hated this feeling very much, but he had to admit that it made him more vigilant and was an excellent weapon. Moreover, he had been tracing the reason for this feeling. Was it because of Xiao Ran's indifferent attitude?
It is said that when the artists rebelled that day, Xiao Ran almost fainted.
He didn't believe in premonitions, but he believed that enough measures could be taken to make up for any mistakes. Most importantly, he firmly believed that Xiao Ran would definitely choose the time for the decisive battle during the summer vacation. This was the best time for the decisive battle, just like the last time he met Haile.
Same. What made him panic was that there must be a conspiracy behind the filmmaker's betrayal, but he still couldn't figure out what trick Xiao Ran was playing.
I have to admit that although Mo Huaien is somewhat realist, sometimes he is still very romantic. He often fantasizes that he is a knight or knight, and after being sympathetic to the enemy, he finally defeats the enemy.
Every time he fights in the shopping mall, he is used to imagining his opponent as such an enemy. Unfortunately, his opponent never cooperates with him. Xiao Ran is undoubtedly an excellent opponent. First, Mo Huaien thinks that his
The princess was snatched away by the wizard Xiao Ran. Secondly, Xiao Ran was already very powerful and could act as his enemy.
However, sometimes he always habitually forgets one thing. The current Phantom is not something that anyone can easily attack, especially when he has no debt and a huge cash reserve. In addition, the Phantom is simply
He did not seek opportunities to go public. As a result, not to mention him now, even the world's richest man would not be able to defeat the Phantom easily.
For Tie Long, his ambitions had rapidly expanded the moment his "Home Alone" box office exceeded 20 million. In front of his eyes, there was already a model - Xiao Ran. Xiao Ran also made
He started his career as a screenwriter and later became a director. However, Tie Long lacked a little popularity.
But he thinks he can do it, and he can even do it better than Xiao Ran. In Golden Harvest, he also asked to be a director, and directed "Home Alone 2", which was the only film to beat Phantom at the prime time box office last year. He
It was true that he became famous all of a sudden, but it was not enough.
So, when there was an opportunity, just like Xiao Ran chose to use Fang Ruohai's funds to start the legend, he chose to go with Mo Huaien and the others. Xiao Ran can do it, and he can do it, at least he can do it.
I think so firmly.
Hong Guo's first venture is a comedy film directed by him. It will be released in June and will compete with the Phantom. In July, the real decisive battle with the Phantom will be Wu Yusen's "Blood on the Street". This film will go to
The actual shooting in Vietnam required an extremely large amount of manpower and materials.
Now Tielong is looking forward to fighting against the Phantom, or rather Xiao Ran. The only thing that makes Tielong regretful is that Xiao Ran has no works coming out this year, otherwise, if he fights against the opponent, that is what he longs for.
And Mo Huaien now feels like a hero who is about to save the princess from the claws of the dragon. He not only wants to make money, but also needs to take advantage of this opportunity, just like when The Phantom Rise used to win the box office battle to get
It was the same today. However, he believed that he had one more task, which was to defeat the evil dragon Xiao Ran and save the princess Lin Qingxia.
The summer vacation is coming soon, and they have to decide a winner. Maybe there is no need to decide...
