Chapter 1757 Continue to Support Helpers
Yin Jun knows how to read people.
For example, these two people in front of me.
Lei Juekun was desperate, so he wanted to buy the script from Yin Jun.
Zou Wenhuai, on the other hand, has the mentality of buying the best he can and accepting it even if he doesn’t buy it.
After all, in Jiahe, Cheng Long, Lin Zhengying, Hong Jinbao and Yuan Biao have all grown up. Every year Jiahe only needs to participate in the production of the three of them's movies, and can get a large amount of dividends.
Even though the three people behind are all from Jiabao Company, Jiabao is also affiliated with Jiahe. Jiahe has made great efforts in production, promotion and distribution.
Unless Hong Jinbao and the others defect to Yin Jun, they will definitely not be able to leave Jiahe.
But joining Qilin Movies is actually about the same as being in Jiahe, and maybe it won't be taken as seriously as in Jiahe.
There are countless superstars in Qilin movies, and even if Hung Jin-bao and the others go there, they still can’t be said to have secured their position as the number one brother.
Jiahe didn't have to go out of his way to ask Yin Jun for the script.
According to the relationship between Yin Jun and Cheng Long, Lin Zhengying, Hong Jinbao and Yuan Biao, the script will naturally be given to them.
Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang have already seen that Yin Jun is focusing on cultivating the global reputation of Xiangjiang stars and letting them make a name for themselves with kung fu movies, so there is no need to worry about their development.
Let’s not talk about Hong Jinbao and others, just talk about Cheng Long.
Do you see how much Cheng Long is taken seriously?
Not only were they given the script for "Red Zone" two years ago, but last year they also directly wrote the script for "Die Hard" to Cheng Long and asked "Terminator" director James Cameron to direct it. Whether the film will be released or not, It was a huge success, and it was with this film that Cheng Long defeated Yuan Biao, who was rising very strongly!
Just this month, "Die Hard 2" also started production in Canada, and Cheng Long had already rushed there in August.
"Die Hard 2" is still directed by James Cameron and is still written by Yin Jun. It is conceivable that it will definitely achieve greater success.
There are three producers of this film. Cheng Long's Weihe Company invested in the starring role's salary. The second company is naturally United Artists Film Company, but the third company Jiahe Company that invested in it belongs to Zou Wenhuai and others. connections.
They forced themselves to get a quota from Yin Jun, turning the two shares into three shares, and Jiahe's investment ratio was not large, much more than Cheng Long's investment with the male lead's salary.
This made Hollywood very dissatisfied, but they didn't dare to tamper with the box office accounts - United Artists Film Company also knew about Zou Wenhuai's relationship with their boss, and if they were sued, they would definitely get away with it.
There once was a deputy director of distribution at United Artists Film Company. When discussing with New Arts City to buy out the copyright, he said a few insulting words to them. Yin Jun personally ordered him to be fired the next day, and announced it to all of Hollywood. After receiving the banning order, the guy had no choice but to change his career sadly.
Zou Wenhuai, He Guanchang and Cai Yongchang have already seen clearly that Yin Jun is desperately trying to make Xiangjiang's movies go out, especially Jiahe, with such outstanding abilities and stars, it is natural that Yin Jun is the one to support.
So Yin Jun doesn't care about this little money at all, and he doesn't think about getting any benefits for himself.
It is also because of Yin Jun's mentality that Lin Zhengying, Hong Jinbao, Cheng Long and Yuan Biao worked so seriously to make the movie so good.
If they were just a part-time worker responsible for one protagonist, they definitely wouldn't have worked so hard.
This is true even for Jiahe.
If you only gave Jiahe a little money and didn't allow Jiahe to participate, do you think Jiahe would be so active in making movies and be so bold in spending a lot of money for distribution and promotion?
Yin Jun grew up watching Xiangjiang movies.
He had no impression of Shaw Brothers.
But he is very affectionate towards the three major companies: Jiahe, Xinyi City and Yongsheng.
Even though the Xiang brothers were from Xin'an Company, Yin Jun couldn't dislike them.
Believe this, many Xiangjiang movie fans think so.
Therefore, Yin Juncai spared no effort to support these three companies.
Now, a few years later, their development situations are different.
Golden Harvest is of course the most developed, with annual profits of at least HK$2.5 billion including theaters and distribution.
Xinyi City is second, with a yearly profit of about 500 million to 600 million yuan. If the Golden Princess theater chain is added together, it is about 890 million yuan.
Yongsheng has just opened its doors two or three years ago, and they currently don’t have many stars. They basically only find stars to start work when they have a script, and they don’t have much of their own team.
If they make fewer movies, their profits will naturally be lower. This year will be almost the same as last year, with around 300 million.
Basically, it relies on the "Royal Senior Sister" series.
The remaining seven or eight movies didn't make much money.
Therefore, the current scale of Yongsheng is not even comparable to Hong Jinbao's Baohe.
This kind of development speed is naturally a bit slow.
But it's understandable.
The ace generals they had in their previous life - Zhou Xingchi, Wang Jing, Li Lianjie and others - are now all under Yin Jun's banner.
If we follow the trajectory of his previous life, Yongshengdu has not actually been born yet, and will have to wait a few more years before he emerges.
If there is a chance, it seems that giving them one or two more series of movies is the best way to support them?
His thoughts slowly came back.
Yin Jun looked up at Zou Wenhuai and Lei Juekun.
"Uncle Huai, Mr. Lei..."
The young man hesitated, but finally said it, "I do have the script, but I can't change the way of cooperation, and I can't give you many... You guys, how about we each collaborate on a movie first?"
"OK!"
Zou Wenhuai perked up and nodded quickly.
He was just making up the numbers casually, but he didn't expect to get his own share of the rice. Of course that's great, what an unexpected surprise!
Lei Juekun was not satisfied.
In his opinion, if Zou Wenhuai hadn't interrupted here, maybe both of them would have been his!
But before he could speak, a slightly clear voice came from the side, "That's not right, Mr. Jun, why do they have benefits but we Yongsheng don't? We Yongsheng are also eager to develop!"
The three of them looked towards the speaker, only to find a tall man standing behind the pillar next to the dining table.
Who else could this be, Xiang Huasheng, the thirteenth young master of the Xiang family?
Really talking about Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here!
Yin Jun was thinking about them just now, but he didn't expect Xiang Huasheng to be listening in the corner and couldn't help but stand up.
It’s not surprising that Xiang Hua wins.
He is the only one who can be so shameless and listen to the wall. If it were the old-fashioned and reserved Xiang Huaqiang, he would definitely not be able to do this.
Lei Juekun became anxious upon hearing this, "Hey, Boss Xiang, Young Master Xiang! Today I am asking Young Master Jun for help. Why are you here to join in the fun? You can talk to Young Master Jun yourself tomorrow, okay?"
"No, no, no." Xiang Huasheng sat down directly on the table, "I just happened to pass by and found you talking about something... Fortunately, I heard it! Otherwise, wouldn't such a good thing be without us Yongsheng? "
Yin Jun smiled and looked at the eager Xiang Huasheng, "Okay, since we are all together, let's talk about it together!"
Lei Juekun and Xiang Huasheng stopped talking immediately, and stared at Yin Jun with Zou Wenhuai to see what he was going to say.
"You are all leaders in the Hong Kong film industry, and you are all people who really like and love movies, so I have always admired you. You also know this, otherwise I will definitely not give you the movie script, and you are still in the theater Online distribution will take good care of you." Yin Jun said eloquently, "So I also hope that you will become stronger! Whether you rely on yourself or because of my guidance, you suddenly become enlightened, it doesn't matter!
On this point, whether it is Jiahe, Xinyi City or Yongsheng, they all have good strategies. I have watched almost all the movies you have made. Although many of them have many shortcomings and shortcomings, as long as you are willing to do it, continue to come up with your own ideas and make them into movies seriously, then you will be successful. very good! "
Hearing Yin Jun praise himself so much, the three of them suddenly felt a sense of pride in their hearts.
Over the years, more and more newcomers have entered the Hong Kong film industry. There are many people who make one or two movies, make a fortune and run away.
These people have brought chaos to the market. If Yin Jun's theater alliance hadn't stopped them and blocked bad movies from entering the market, I'm afraid the situation would have been much worse.
In fact, if you want to make money when making movies, it is really easy with these three major companies.
They casually produce a few movies, put together some plots, and get big stars to play, then they can release the movies and make money, and they can also sell them overseas to earn US dollars.
But none of them did this.
Under Yin Jun's leadership and guidance, the three companies' outstanding works, that is, carefully produced films, accounted for at least 80% of their total films.
I dare not say everything, even Qilin Movie has a lot of bad movies.
But having this kind of mentality is considered good.
In order to maintain these pious production attitudes, they also gave up many immediate benefits.
Now that they heard Yin Jun's praise and the affirmation from the world's richest man and the biggest boss in the film industry, they were of course very happy and proud.
"So, since you feel that your development is not enough and you need to further strengthen your strength, I am also willing to help." Yin Jun continued, "As long as you cherish the script I gave you and create it well, then our Xiangjiang movie , will definitely be on par with Hollywood in the future, or even surpass them!"
"Don't worry, Mr. Jun, we must cherish him the most!" Xiang Huasheng expressed his stance first.
"Jiahe doesn't have any other abilities, but he still has the ability to make movies seriously. This is the biggest difference between us and Shaw Brothers before." Zou Wenhuai said proudly.
"Xinyi City was originally created to make good movies. I, Lao Lei, also want to rely on my true skills to let the gringos see our movies! After taking your script, Mr. Jun, you can see what we do Make it your best!" Lei Juokun promised.
"good!"
Yin Jun nodded and said, "In a week, I will select a movie suitable for your production and hand it over to you. I hope the three of you will keep your word and make some achievements so that foreigners can see it. Not only Only Hollywood can conquer the global audience!”
No matter what the three people were thinking, they all nodded solemnly in response when they heard this.
After all, Xiang Huasheng was younger. He couldn't help but ask, "Master Jun, I heard that you have hundreds of scripts in your safe. Is it true?"
"Of course it's impossible." Yin Jun smiled brightly, "I have written hundreds of stories over the years, but there are still comic contents in them! There are also some that are not suitable for filming now, and they need to be well-written. Special effects technology only works, so there are not many to choose from now. There are also some literary and artistic films, which are definitely not suitable for you, such as "Carmen in Mong Kok" some time ago. Such a script is not what you need, right? "
Zou Wenhuai originally wanted to climb up the pole again, but suddenly he heard ""Carmen in Mong Kok"" and immediately shut up.
It still needs a commercial blockbuster, which is suitable for today’s film companies!
