Clearwater Bay.

Shaw Building, President's Office.

"Mr. Zhang is really an honored guest. He has time to come and sit with us at Shaw Brothers Pictures. It's rare, it's really rare." Chow Run-fa moved a chair and sat next to him. Zhang Guobin and Zhu Baoyi sat on the guest sofa together. Shao Yifu put down his pen.

, walked around the desk, came to the main table to make tea, raised his head and played with the tea set, and spoke slowly and politely.

"Uncle Six is ​​too praised. You are a senior in the film industry. Compared with you, I am just a junior." However, Zhang Guobin's face did not change, and he allowed Shao Yifu to use both guns and sticks in his words, and said humbly.

"Haha, as soon as "A Better Tomorrow" debuts, you are no longer a junior in the film industry, but a big shot in the film industry!" Shao Yifu was arrogant, and his words were still aggressive: "I don't know, Mr. Zhang

You came to chat with me today. Is there anything you want to advise me on?"

Zhang Guobin can understand Shao Yifu's attitude. If someone invites his own popular actors to film a movie without saying hello to him, and they also compete in the same schedule, it will affect the box office.

The most important thing is that this affects the company's actor signing strategy, and he will definitely be angrier than Shao Yifu.

But, it doesn't matter.

Let’s chat and discuss business...

If things go well, everyone becomes a family.

If we can't reach an agreement, it's not too late to fall out!

Zhang Guobin took a cup of Pu'er tea from Shao Yifu, lowered his head to take a sip, and exclaimed: "Mr. Shao, good tea!"

"You are my senior. If I have anything to say, I will tell you directly and don't make some twists and turns to make people laugh."

"My Oriental DreamWorks' new film wants to be released in Shaw Brothers Cinemas."

"You are so talented. You hired me to act in a movie. After filming, you came to ask me for a canvas. You hired people from Jiahe to film. After filming, you dared to have tea with me at Shaw Brothers."

"Jiahe, Shaw Brothers dance on both sides, do you think you are the winner? I think everyone admires you and sees that you are a great dancer every day!" Shao Yifu suddenly raised his eyebrows, put down the teacup heavily, and shouted sternly: "Young people don't know how high the sky is! Part 1

If the film is successful, consider yourself a big shot in the film industry!"

At this time, Mr. Shao was not a pure and good man who cultivated his character and built buildings for the university every day. Any business tycoon who was powerful in his youth was full of personality. If he disagreed with him, he might be able to tear his face and curse. In private, he was insidious.

Whether he is magnanimous or a villain, he has a different face when facing each person, which is almost difficult to figure out.

What's more, Mr. Shao is from a Nanyang Chinese family. He went south to Xiangjiang to work hard for his career. He has a profound background and has never been subordinated to others in his life.

Zhou Runfa saw that Mr. Shao, who rarely got angry with his subordinates, suddenly became angry. A rare hint of panic appeared on the face of a popular actor. He hurriedly put down his tea cup and explained to Zhang Guobin: "Uncle Liu, Mr. Zhang has no such intention."

"Shut up!" Shao Yifu said.

Zhou Runfa immediately stopped talking.

Zhu Baoyi held Zhang Guobin's arm tightly, but Zhang Guobin chuckled, drank the tea confidently, crossed his legs, put his wrists on his knees, played with the tea cup, and said firmly: "The film industry is not a big shot.

!The film emperor is really interested!"

"Young boy, arrogant!" Mr. Shao said contemptuously.

Don't look at Zhang Guobin's company's film "A Better Tomorrow", which seems to be a hit in Hong Kong and has great prospects. However, Shao Yifu owns the Shaw Brothers Cinema chain. Even if the film company is out of date, what is the point? He also controls many film companies.

Lifeline, it should be fished out and it will be prosperous.

What's more, Shaw Brothers Film Studio has been dominant in Hong Kong since the 1970s. It has created Chinese Kung Fu films with overseas titles, and has also produced many superstars such as Li Xiaolong. It is the dominant player in the Chinese film industry. It is really not afraid of a small company.

In one sentence, how many celebrities in Hong Kong dare to film with Zhang Guobin?

There are still three pounds of nails in the rotten ship. The ship has not sunk today, so the owner of the ship is certainly talking loudly!

However, Zhang Guobin also had his own confidence and was not afraid of Shao Yifu at all. He put down the tea cup and said: "I call you uncle Liu because I respect you, and I ask you to meet because I want to have money together. If uncle Liu refuses to agree,

Abao, let’s get out of the way.”

Zhang Guobin held Zhu Baoyi's hand and planned to get up.

"Seven percent of the box office share, just like Zou Huaiwen, the painting will be done at night! No problem!" Shao Yifu blurted out.

As soon as Zhang Guobin's buttocks left the sofa, he leaned down again to sit down. He smiled and said, "Thank you, Uncle Six."

When two smart people talked, they were arrogant when they should be direct. Zhang Guobin knew that Shao Yifu should be a little unhappy with him, but being unhappy didn't mean that they couldn't make money together. Shao Yifu agreed to work with Zhang Guobin

After the cooperation, another condition was put forward, that is, Zhou Runfa must renew his contract with Shaw Brothers.

With the current situation of Chow Run-fa's "Shanghai Bund" and "A Better Tomorrow", it would be very expensive for Shaw Brothers to sign Chow Run-fa. Almost all film companies including Golden Harvest and New Art City want to cooperate with Chow Run-fa, but Shaw Brothers

He has the most initiative, because his contract with Zhou Runfa still has one year left. If Zhou Runfa is hidden within one year, Ah Fa will also suffer huge losses.

This is not so much about taking advantage of the situation as it is about taking advantage of the opportunity and hitting the snake three inches. Neither Zhou Runfa nor Zhang Guobin can refuse Shao Yifu. Fortunately, the renewal conditions offered by Shao Yifu are much higher than the others.

Although the time period lasts for five years, the terms of starring in two major productions a year are enough to satisfy Zhou Runfa.

Shaw Brothers also showed their support.

However, Chow Run-fa asked Shaw Brothers to add an additional condition that he could star in movies produced by "Global DreamWorks".

When this request was made, Shao Yifu's expression became even more dissatisfied. Zhang Guobin, who was sitting next to him, felt deeply and directly put his arm around Zhou Runfa's shoulders. If Shaw Brothers wanted to fall out, he would definitely call him Ah Fa to the end.

"Mr. Zhang, I don't know what means you used to invite Fa Zai to act, but your method of winning over people's hearts is really good." Shao Yifu reluctantly agreed to increase the terms. After Zhou Runfa signed the contract, he looked at Zhang Guobin.

Zhang Guobin shook his head: "You don't understand."

Shao Yifu really doesn’t understand!

He never expected that Zhang Guobin was the one hired by his younger brother to write the script.

Zhang Guobin could not only cover the gun with the script, but also invite the brothers to go upstairs and sit down and chat with Shao Yifu. Although he did not do this, and although Shao Yifu had a deep background, the young man could not do anything except risking his life.

For ruthless people, you must shock them!

In the evening of that day, "A Better Tomorrow" was screened in 97 Shaw Brothers theaters in Hong Kong. Late at night, "A Better Tomorrow" was screened at the Golden Princess Cinema. The three major theaters in Hong Kong screened "A Better Tomorrow" at the same time, except for the Shuangnan Cinemas, which specializes in showing leftist movies.

Apart from the lack of pictures, the Shanghai version of "A Better Tomorrow" can be seen at the entrance of almost all theaters in Hong Kong.

Zhang Guobin has a patriotic heart, but with his social background, he is too shameless to ask Shuangnan Cinema to screen DreamWorks movies.

Now, Shuangnan Cinema Line will not show "crime films" like "A Better Tomorrow" at all, and domestic film censorship is extremely strict, and the import system has not yet been opened. As the mainland's propaganda station in Hong Kong, Shuangnan Cinema Line's red background
Chapter completed!
