9days ago Celebrity fiction 8
Mr. Zhang, are you here too?

Ah, it's Boss Lu, long time no see.

Old Chen, do you think Kang Jianfei and Lei Juekun have a complete fall in love this time?

There are so many people coming today, I think it’s better to set up a theater chain.

……

There were beating and chatting in the living room, and guests gathered together in groups of three or three, chatting loudly or whispering.

Today is Kang Jianfei's 21st birthday. He invited very few guests at this birthday party, and the location was in Pan Yingzi's small villa, which made it difficult for entertainment reporters to find.

Among the guests in the living room today, more than 20 are the owners or managers of the theaters contacted by Maqiao, and the brothers Jiang Zhiwen and Jiang Zhiqiang from Anle Cinema are also here.

The owner Kang Jianfei was still greeting guests there, but the Jiang brothers hid in the corner and whispered.

Jiang Zhiwen held a wine glass and looked at the people around him and said: Brother, Kang Jianfei invited so many owners of cinemas today. Can't he really want to set up a theater chain, right?

Jiang Zhiqiang shook his head and said: Probably not.

Now Anle Cinema is still under the control of his elder brother Jiang Zhiwen. He said: It is OK to cooperate with Oriental Dream Factory to screen films, but you must not start cinemas with him.

Jiang Zhiqiang said seriously: If we can really cooperate with Kang Jianfei stably, I think it would be good to form a theater.

Jiang Zhiwen was much more conservative and shook his head and said: We have been doing Western films for decades, and the source of films cannot be guaranteed. It is too risky to be a theater chain.

Jiang Zhiqiang felt that this was a good opportunity, but unfortunately, Anle Pictures was his elder brother who was the decision, so he couldn't persuade him at all.

Why does Jiang Zhiwen strongly oppose the establishment of a large theater chain?

That's because among the hospitals and businesses that were present today, there are the four theaters in Anle Cinema, and the others are all small characters.

Even Anle Theater, as long as it screens Western films, Chinese-language film sources are very scarce.

The other dozen small theaters used to be screened in second and third rounds, and the remaining films of others were released.This way, copying rent is much lower, which can reduce costs and ensure profits.

If Anle Cinema and these small theaters combine fixed theaters, then the source of films will be a big problem.

It’s okay to say that there are films from Oriental DreamWorks when they are released, but it is difficult to maintain theater operations at other times.

At that time, the four Anle's cinemas will inevitably be dragged down by other cinemas. Not only will it be difficult to make more money, but it is likely to lose money due to insufficient film sources.

Under the introduction of Ma Qiao and Pan Yingzi, Kang Jianfei met those hospital merchants one by one. After chatting for a few words, he immediately changed his next target.

After a long time, Kang Jianfei walked to the Jiang brothers and stretched out his hand to Jiang Zhiwen and said: Hello, Mr. Jiang.

Hello, Mr. Kang.Jiang Zhiwen shook hands with Kang Jianfei with a smile.

Kang Jianfei smiled at Jiang Zhiqiang again and said: Brother Jiang, long time no see.

It's Ah, long time no see.Jiang Zhiqiang shook hands with him and said.

The dance music has begun to play in the living room and the lights have dimmed.Kang Jianfei said: Why don’t we go upstairs to chat?

Jiang Zhiwen smiled and said: Guests follow the host’s will.

The three of them went upstairs to a room. After a while of gossip, Kang Jianfei said: Did Ma Qiao reveal my intention?

Jiang Zhiwen nodded and said: Mr. Ma mentioned that I am very interested in the idea of ​​temporary theaters.But when will the temporary theater chain be organized, and when will each operate their own business? How to determine this?

Kang Jianfei said: Whenever a new film with Oriental Dream Factory is released, everyone will sit down and watch the film together. As long as most people agree, they will form a temporary theater chain.After the movie falls into pieces, the theaters will automatically disband.

Jiang Zhiqiang asked again: What method should temporary theaters take?Should we rent a theater directly like we did in the United States last time, or did we use the way we combined our shares?

Kang Jianfei said: This depends on what you mean. Which choice do you think is more suitable?

The Jiang brothers looked at each other, and Jiang Zhiwen said: Joining stocks, getting together and breaking up.

Kang Jianfei smiled and said: Of course, I can, and I can not participate in the temporary theater.

When Jiang Zhiwen heard that Kang Jianfei was not involved in the theater, he was immediately delighted.

Because Anle's four theaters are the largest, as long as Kang Jianfei does not participate, the temporary theater chain will definitely be controlled by their brothers.

There are two types of theater businessmen. The Jiang family has always been a theater businessman before, and their main focus is on operating theaters.If the temporary theater plan goes well, then the Jiang family will be considered half a theater business.

Building a theater chain is more profitable than operating a theater, but the risks are also greater.However, Kang Jianfei's temporary theater plan avoids a lot of risks, which makes Jiang Zhiwen, who is more conservative, quite moved.

The Jiang brothers were satisfied, and Kang Jianfei was also very happy. He didn't need to grab the profits of theaters, otherwise it would be better if he had conflicts with the Jiang family.

Anle Cinema is the core of the future temporary theaters. Without the four large theaters under Anle, the so-called temporary theaters are just a joke.

In fact, Kang Jianfei had an idea in his mind, which was to pull out two shareholders of Princess Jin Cinema and Feng Bingzhong to form another theater. This would not only disgust Lei Juekun, but also kill two birds with his own theater.

However, it is too early to implement this plan now, and all conditions are not ripe. Chen and Feng will not easily disband with Lei Juekun.

Even if they agree to set up a new theater, it must be Chen and Feng who control the new theater. They will not be so stupid that they are the gunmen of Kang Jianfei.

After a while of conversation, Kang Jianfei and the other two returned to the banquet hall. He happily danced with Guan Zhilin, while the Jiang brothers held wine glasses and started to deal with other hospital merchants.

Two days later, nearly 20 hospital merchants, including the Jiang brothers, initially reached a cooperation agreement for temporary theaters.

The agreement stipulates: When a new film in Oriental Dream Factory is released, then after the test film, all members vote to decide whether to form a temporary theater.

Once the theater chain is formed, Jiang Zhiqiang will be responsible for the operation of the theater chain, and other hospital merchants will take turns to supervise the financial and business conditions.

When there was no new DreamWorks film released, temporary theaters automatically disbanded, Anle theaters continued to go back to screen Western films, and other theaters still showed their low-priced old films.

Of course, the agreement also has additional provisions: that is, when encountering good movies from other companies or Western movies with potential, everyone may be convened to discuss whether it is necessary to form a temporary theater.

……

Oriental Dream Factory, in the chairman's office.

Kang Jianfei hung up the phone call from Jiang Zhiqiang, called his secretary Chen Shuli in, and ordered: Notify the Market and Issuing Department to completely stop contacting Princess Jin, and contact Jiang Zhiqiang directly in the future.

Chen Shuli was not clear about the temporary theater plan and was surprised by Kang Jianfei's instructions. She asked: "The True Heroes" is still being released. Will it take a few more days to wait?

Kang Jianfei sneered: No need, just leave someone to wait and collect the money.There is an agreement between us and Princess Jin. If they dare to force the drawing when the attendance rate of "The True Heroes" is pretty good, they will send them a lawyer's letter directly.

Chen Shuli didn't ask any more questions and immediately went out to notify the marketing department.

Kang Jianfei leaned on the leather chair, and his mood that had been suppressed for many days finally felt relieved.

Lei Juekun wanted to break his canvas and force him to stop. When the temporary theaters were released in a few days, the old guy would probably be so shocked that his eyes fell off.

Temporary theaters were the method of the remaining theater merchants being forced out in the last few years of the 20th century when the Hong Kong film industry was generally declining.

It was not until the 21st century that Hong Kong's temporary theater operations matured.

In this era, there is no saying in the world about temporary theaters except for the last time Kang Jianfei and Jiang Zhiqiang were in the United States.

It can be said that the emergence of temporary theaters is just like Kang Jianfei's suggestion that Princess Jin cancel the theater guarantee fee, which is of epoch-making significance to the Hong Kong film industry.

Especially those small film companies or independent producers who produce good films have a new film channel and will not be restricted by large companies and theaters as before.

Dingling...

As soon as Chen Shuli went out, the phone from Kang Jianfei's office rang.

Kang Jianfei picked it up and heard it, but the call was from Mei Xinlin, his secretary of Feng Huáng TV.

Mei Xinlin is an old woman in her forties, but her voice is quite soft and nice. She said: Boss, TVB's "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" has started filming, and I have got a list of the main cast of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

Come here by fax.Kang Jianfei hung up the phone after saying that.

In fact, Kang Jianfei doesn't need to deal with such trivial matters, but Kang Jianfei is the producer of Feng Huáng's TV series, so it's not bad to know it in advance.

In parallel space, the first part of "Senior Sister Tuo Gun" has only 20 episodes.

However, since Kang Jianfei expected that the ratings of this TV series would be very good, he naturally had to greatly extend its life span.

At the beginning, McDonald was preparing to film 40 episodes, but after its ratings exceeded 70%, he immediately found Xiao Ruoyuan to modify the script and increase the length of the episode to 60 episodes.

Kang Jianfei is not in a hurry to film "The Legend of Qin" now, because it is still early before "Senior Sister Tuo Gun" has been broadcast.

With a strong curiosity, Kang Jianfei really wanted to see what TVB's starring roles will be in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

Because in the original time and space, Huang Rong and Weng Meiling from the 1983 version of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" have already won the contract secretly with Kang Jianfei and can only sign a contract after a while.

The actors with several roles such as Huang Yaoshi, Temujin, Lu Guanying are now employees of Feng Huáng TV.

Kang Jianfei originally thought that he would start filming "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" after Weng Meiling signed the contract, but he didn't expect that TVB would actually film it in advance.

Kang Jianfei picked up the "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" cast list that was faxed and saw that he almost spit out at the beginning.The actor who plays Huang Rong is actually He Chaoqiong...

Is TVB going to use the gambling king's daughter as a publicity stunt?

What Kang Jianfei didn't know was that Ho Chaoqiong and his half-brother Ho Chaoxiong are now on TVB, so they are half-study and half-working.

Ho Chaoqiong also starred in a TVB TV series last year, but most people don’t know that she is the daughter of the gambling king.
