Tsang's mind was shaking, and he could not make a decision before staying or leaving. Finally, his car turned around and drove towards Sammo Hung's house.
Sammo Hung is famous for being loyal and reliable in the film industry. Even before he became popular, he wanted to form the Hong family class, and with just a greeting, countless people came to surrender.
Eric Tsang was the one who defected to Sammo Hung at that time. He was originally from the Liu family.
When Eric Tsang changed his career as a screenwriter, he received support from Sammo Hung. Later, when he chose between DreamWorks and New Art City, Sammo Hung helped him with advice.
Now that Zeng Zhiwei has something to do, he can't make any decisions, so he subconsciously wants to ask Sammo Hung to help solve his doubts.
Eric Tsang waited four or five hours at Sammo Hung's house before Sammo Hung came back from the set.As soon as he saw Zeng Zhiwei, he joked: Oh, what wind has blown Manager Zeng today?
The winds in the southeast, west and north are Ah, and my mind is now blown away.Eric Tsang sighed.
Sammo Hung said happily: DreamWorks is really amazing this summer. In June, a low-cost "Beautiful Girl" sold for tens of millions of yuan, and in July, the "Heroic Reality" was a tiger going down the mountain again.The audience's money has entered the pockets of DreamWorks. Why are you, the production manager, sighing?
Eric Tsang turned around and asked: Brother Sanmao, when will your "Fat Dragon Crossing the River" be released?
Sammo Hung said: In another week, once the box office of "Plan A" is weak, "Fat Dragon Crossing the River" will be up."The True Heroes" is too ruthless. I hope it will be relieved by then, otherwise I would not dare to compete with it for box office.
After Zeng Zhiwei greeted me, he suddenly said: Brother Sanmao, today Boss Lei said he would help me invest in opening a film company. Do you think I should agree?
Lei Juekun is looking for you?Sammo Hung asked in disbelief, Princess Jin and DreamWorks have a cooperative relationship, aren’t he afraid that Kang Jianfei will have a quarrel with him?
Zeng Zhiwei said: Of course he is not afraid, Princess Jin has been stable in the past two years.Even if the DreamWorks movie is not released in Princess Jin, Princess Jin only makes less money at most and does not lack the source of release.Moreover, in several consecutive box office battles, DreamWorks had a very stalemate with Jiahe, and it was basically impossible to cooperate with Jiahe, so it could only stay at Princess Jin to be released.
Just make less money?DreamWorks is now a money-making machine, and Princess Jin is guarding a treasure mountain.
Sammo Hung sighed, secretly dismantling his business partner's station. It seems that Boss Lei has been tolerating Kang Jianfei for a long time.
(Old Wang complains here: Some readers said why Kang Jianfei fights with Run Run Shaw and Zou Wenhuai, and also said that Run Run Shaw's connections can ban Kang Jianfei's company. This book is in Unlimited YY.
If Run Run Shaw is so powerful, Shaw Pictures will not stop production.Any industry must follow rules, such as setting fire, kidnapping, murder, etc., which are the last means to be forced to use.Otherwise, if you set fire, I will set fire too. Everyone’s film library companies have burned, that’s a big deal!)
Zeng Zhiwei said: It is inevitable that there will be friction, and both husband and wife will still have to quarrel.
Sammo Hung smiled and said: If Boss Lei only has Princess Golden Cinemas in his hands, his relationship with DreamWorks may be as sweet as honey now.Unfortunately, Boss Lei is also the largest shareholder of Xinyi City, so he and Kang Jianfei are both partners and competitive relationships.I guess Lei Juekun himself was very awkward. He didn't know whether to support DreamWorks or suppress DreamWorks, so he warned Kang Jianfei by poaching people.
Zeng Zhiwei asked in confusion: But this warning has no meaning?
Sammo Hung guessed: It is probably just the beginning. Princess Jin will probably compress the release time and time of DreamWorks films in the future, and then strive to support the films of New Art City.
Zeng Zhiwei's mind was even more confused and said: The movie box office of Kymn Factory is the biggest source of income for Princess Jin Cinemas. Isn't Lei Juekun doing this?
Sammo Hung was also a little confused and said: Who knows what the big bosses think? It is probably because DreamWorks performed too strongly and was a bit overwhelming.I have also worked with Lei Juekun. This person seems to be as generous as Mr. Zou, but in fact he is the same person as Daheng Shao in his bones.If you do business with such a person, he has to control everything. Look at Princess Jin, Xinyi City, my former Jinbao Film Company, and other film companies that Lei Juekun invests now, which one is not his absolute control?
Zeng Zhiwei asked: What should I do?
Sammo Hung analyzed for him: You and I don’t have the ability of Daheng Shao, Mr. Zou and Kang Jianfei. If we want to be in the Hong Kong film circle, we have to rely on people to support us.In addition to your own abilities, you can also be favored.
Zeng Zhiwei nodded. A small person like him who gets up from the bottom really depends on his own efforts and also on the support of big people.
Sammo Hung continued: So choosing which side is not the key. The key is not to break up with anyone, which can be regarded as leaving a way out for yourself.
Eric Tsang said: I didn’t want to have a quarrel with Mr. Kang either.
Sammo Hung smiled and said: If you leave DreamWorks this time to cooperate with Princess Jin, it would be fine if you leave alone. As long as you take your subordinates with you, Kang Jianfei will definitely treat you as an enemy.
Eric Tsang immediately understood what Sammo Hung wanted to say.
Sammo Hung took the Hong family to cooperate with Princess Jin, and now he can leave Princess Jin and return to Jiahe. The most important thing is that he did not take Jiahe alone.
If Zeng Zhiwei takes people out of DreamWorks now, those people are not trained by him. It would be a matter of whether to follow him or not. Even if he follows Ah, Kang Jianfei will hate him to the core.
Sammo Hung continued: When Zou Wenhuai left Shaw Brothers, he took away a group of backbones, and then Shaw Brothers and Jiahe remained unrest.Once you take people away, Kang Jianfei will definitely suppress you like Shaw Brothers suppressed Jiahe.
Zeng Zhiwei replied: Mr. Kang is very good at making movies. Even if Boss Lei helps me, he will definitely not be able to compete with him for the theater.At that time, Kang Jianfei doesn’t have to do anything else, he will only compete with you for the theater during a good schedule. What do you think you will do?
Zeng Zhiwei breathed, and he had basically made a choice in his heart.
He knew that Kang Jianfei was very good at making movies. Unless Lei Juekun and Kang Jianfei completely turned against each other, he would not help him too much regardless of Princess Jin's interests.
After leaving DreamWorks, it’s okay to start a company by yourself to make a small amount of money.Because Princess Jin's Cinema already has DreamWorks and New Art City, the company Zeng Zhiwei runs is in the middle and it is impossible to be too big.
Make a small amount of money, just stay at DreamWorks, why bother with Lei Juekun?
Thinking of this, Zeng Zhiwei's thoughts suddenly became clear, and he felt extremely relaxed all over his body. He smiled and said: Brother Sanmao can see clearly, I decided to stay at Dream Factory.
Sammo Hung said: Just think it through. Just think about it clearly. Just let this kind of thing go bad in your stomach. Don’t offend Boss Lei for this.
Sammo Hung’s suggestion is good, but Eric Tsang does not intend to conceal this matter. He wants to continue climbing up at DreamWorks, so he wants to express his sincerity.
The next morning, Zeng Zhiwei's secretary quietly ran into his office to report: Manager, Mr. Kang is here!
Zeng Zhiwei immediately put down his work, sorted out his clothes, and quickly walked to Kang Jianfei's office.
Kang Jianfei is in a good mood recently and asked with a smile: Is there anything wrong?
Eric Tsang said: Mr. Kang, "The Royal Sister 2" has been produced in the post-production, and Xu Anhua's "Traveling to the Rage Sea" is about to start filming next week.
You can report these to Pan Yingzi and Ma Qiao, without notifying me.Kang Jianfei asked, "Tell me, what else do you have?"
Zeng Zhiwei suddenly said in a low voice: Mr. Kang, yesterday Lei Juekun suddenly asked me out for dinner, saying that he wanted to invest in and open a company for me, and asked me to take people out from DreamWorks.
Kang Jianfei frowned and sneered: Is this old guy Alzheimer's disease?He didn't want to dig Jiahe, but saw that he was trying to make an idea on me. Who are you cheating?
Zeng Zhiwei stopped and said: Mr. Kang, then I'm out.
Well, Kang Jianfei nodded at him, you did a good job in this matter.If you do it well in the future, I will not treat you badly.
Zeng Zhiwei left the office with a smile, but the smile on Kang Jianfei's face suddenly disappeared, thinking: It seems that Lei Juekun has a big appetite!
Kang Jianfei did not look for the reason from him, nor did he think that it would be so unhappy that Lei Juekun would have been able to cut the bridge too quickly when he crossed the river.
In fact, his original behavior was not called "cutting the bridge across the river", but instead he fought for his due benefits, but these benefits were snatched from Lei Juekun's mouth, such as reclaiming overseas issuance rights from Princess Jin's distribution company, such as increasing the share of Hong Kong box office, etc.
Although Kang Jianfei likes Yin people, his true style of doing things is extremely tough, and he almost always pushes people step by step.
But he has always been paying attention to his qualities and will not force people to retreat until they have no way out. Otherwise, the rabbit will bite people even if it is anxious. Leave a way out for the enemy and leave a way out for himself.
But Lei Juekun is also a hardliner. Before he settled the score with Kang Jianfei, he was not stable yet. Now Princess Jin's theater has developed to the point where it can operate perfectly without DreamWorks.
Kang Jianfei's guess is similar to Sammo Hung. He believes that Princess Jin Cinema will definitely suppress DreamWorks step by step until DreamWorks can't stand begging for mercy.
Lei Juekun will not directly reject the film of Dream Factory. First, this violates the interests of other shareholders of Princess Jin, and second, it will force Kang Jianfei to Jiahe.
His steps should be to boil the frog in warm water, compressing the living space of DreamWorks little by little without leaving too much talk.
It’s time to have your own theater chain!
Kang Jianfei sighed in his heart, but unfortunately he had just bought a TV station and had no extra money to buy a theater.
How about making two low-cost movies in Hollywood to earn some US dollars?
