Age of Dreams

We can be together when eating and playing, but when watching the game, the two wives and two daughters will not be together.

One of them wants to cheer for the Japanese team, while the other is a fan of the Korean team, so they can only separate.

No matter how much we disdain South Korea and how much we hate Japan, you can't stop the people of these two countries from supporting their own country, and they are also famously patriotic.

Xiao Qi is not interested in the Olympic games at all, but it doesn't matter to watch with him.

So this afternoon he appeared in the diving arena and the judo arena respectively.

Then, the boy was called away by Qiao Guoer.

Last night, Xiao Qi also saw the queen sister who sang "Blue and White Porcelain" at the opening ceremony. It was Jiang Dahai who worked hard for Qiao Guoer before going to Jiangnan.

This is the case in Huaguo, no matter how famous you are, how good your reputation is, if you don't make connections, you will still gradually decline.

Of course, Qiao Guoer didn't make it to that point, but for such a big event as the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games, if someone didn't take care of it, it would be impossible for others to take the initiative to invite her to sing - you think China has a population of 1.5 billion, is it a lie? There are so many celebrities, crying and shouting, trying to get into the opening ceremony by various means, and there are more than tens of thousands?

Of course, apart from singing a song, Qiao Guoer did not participate in the Olympics too much.

The queen sister has recently reduced the number of TV dramas and movies she starred in, and gradually put half of her energy on managing the company.

But there are too many things about Kiwi Film and Television Company and Kiwi Theater. So often she is busy at full capacity.

Fortunately, Zhu Hong and Xiao Jiawei knew how much Xiao Qi attached importance to Qiao Guoer, otherwise she would not even have much time to sleep if she really got busy.

Even when Xiao Qi saw Qiao Guoer at night, she was still working and eating the food brought by the female bodyguard from home.

This is also Xiao Qi's special request, no matter when and where. Don't eat bento from outside, not to mention the bad taste, the key is that it doesn't have much nutrition.

Therefore, even if it is a little troublesome, as long as Qiao Guoer is in the company every day, the noon and evening meals are prepared and delivered by the nanny at home.

Thanks to Qiao Guoer, sometimes Zhu Hong can eat steaming food with him. Like today.

Kiwi Film and Television Production Company and Kiwi Cinema Line. They all formed the Kiwi Film and Television Group in the mansion built on the piece of land that Xiao Qi gave to Qiao Guoer.

The less than 100 mu of land was fully utilized by Zhu Hong and other figures, and several buildings were built. The LOGO of Kiwi Film and Television Group flashed neon lights and could be seen from far away.

The current Kiwi Film and Television Group is no longer just three or two kittens when it first opened.

Relying on the ideas of several TV series and movies given by Xiao Qi. Relying on a more powerful Kiwi movie theater chain, it has already become a first-class big company in the film and television industry.

In terms of film production ability, number of stars under its umbrella, connections in the circle, etc., Kiwi Film and Television Group can only be regarded as second-rate in fact.

But with an extremely powerful movie theater chain, then everything is not a problem.

This market is, after all, the market for big-screen movies!

In the past year or so, the Kiwi Cinema Line has completed the initial layout that Xiao Qi expected.

There are more than 200 movie theaters and more than 1,800 screens in 67 first- and second-tier cities. Such a huge scale has already surpassed the sum of the second and third theaters in Huaguo!

But it's not over yet, Xiaoyao Mansion is almost finished. At that time, there will be a separate floor there, which will be used as a dedicated venue for the IMAX hall and IMAX 3D hall of the Kiwi Cinema Line.

When watching blockbuster movies, the shocking power of IMAX is absolutely amazing.

Since the privatization of IMAX Corporation ended in February this year, Xiao Jiawei has invited experts from IMAX Corporation to work in the four major cities of Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen. It spent huge sums of money to set up several IMAX guest trial viewing platforms, and screened several popular blockbusters in the United States on IMAX screens.

Whether it is a professional or an ordinary audience, they are all stunned and full of aftertaste.

The free trial viewing event that lasted for several months has indeed cultivated hundreds of thousands of loyal fans, and there are even other places that go to Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen to apply to watch IMAX movies.

Because of this, the outside world has a lot of calls for when the Kiwi Cinemas will officially build an IMAX hall and show the latest movies in time.

Even if Xiao Jiawei released the news, the price may be two or three times that of ordinary movies, but it still can't stop everyone's enthusiasm.

As for the further IMAX 3D hall, it will have to wait until the end of next year, when Cameron's epic masterpiece "Avatar" is released, and more people will buy it. After all, the 3D version must use 3D shooting technology to be better. show charm.

And "Avatar", which has the most sensational effect and beautiful effects, is undoubtedly the best publicity for 3D movies.

I forgot to say that Cameron has a lot of shares in the company that holds the core 3D technology!

Having established more than 200 theaters, the Kiwi Movie Theater Chain with such a great influence not only immediately made up for its own disadvantages in other aspects, but also surrounded all the big movie companies all at once, begging to give them Movies arrange better release dates and more screenings.

Whether in the past or in the future, the best release date and the best schedule are still one of the most important factors for a movie's box office.

For example, "Lost in Thailand", "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" and so on, it is for this reason that they can have super high box office.

Even the best films, such as "Avatar" and "Titanic", if you give them a midnight show, and then release them in a month, do you think they can be so brilliant?

In the future, cinema chains will be even more important than many film companies.

The seven giants of Hollywood, the ones that have closed down and declined, didn't they end up closing down or being acquired because they didn't have a movie theater line in their hands?

Therefore, Xiao Qi asked Qiao Guoer to set up a movie theater chain, which was a very important move for Kiwi Film and Television Group. It doesn’t matter whether the movie is good or bad, as long as it is released, there will be a share of the income, and the stronger the movie theater chain, the more money it will receive .

The growth of the Kiwi Cinema Line has also directly driven other departments.

For example, the films and TV series produced by Kiwi Film and Television Production Company have benefited a lot from the exchange of benefits.

The "Battle of Marriage" filmed by Qiao Guoer and Feng Kexin is the top three works of this year's ratings, and "The Legend of Zhen Huan", which is about to be filmed in September, sold the first and second broadcast rights early, and It has once again set a new record for the selling price of TV series held by Kiwi Video Production Company.

This is why rich people can make money faster and better.

Once the resource allocation keeps up, the speed of making money from money will be significantly accelerated.

And self-made people, naturally have to work harder.

Leaving this matter aside for the time being, seeing Qiao Guoer and Zhu Hong having dinner in the office, Xiao Qi hadn't eaten at all, and happened to eat together.

"The focus of August is the Olympic Games, so whether it is a domestic film or a foreign blockbuster, the attendance rate is not very good. On average, it is 20%, and it does not exceed 40% on weekends." Zhu Hong is also a busy person. Report to Qiao Guoer, "This month's loss will reach at least 6 million, do I need to get it from the company's reserve funds?"

"Well, let them write a report, and you can allocate funds from your finances." Qiao Guo'er felt a little headache, "After a few months of hard work, I made a profit, and then lost money again. The box office in Huaguo is really hard to say. !"

"That's just now." Xiao Qi said from the side: "With more and more foreign blockbusters, and as our domestic filmmakers produce more and more excellent films, the movie theaters will definitely make a lot of money in the future. There will be no time for filming, and you will definitely have troubles of happiness when the time comes."

"hehe!"

Qiao Guoer smiled, but gave Xiao Qi a blank look.

Xiao Qi has now invested 26 billion yuan in the opening of the Kiwi Cinema Line. If this part of the investment is excluded, then in general, the Kiwi Cinema Line has been making money from the very beginning, and this year’s profit is expected to reach around 80 million. .

With such a result, Xiao Qi is already very satisfied. After all, he has set aside 2 billion in funds to deal with the loss of the Kiwi movie theater chain.

But Qiao Guoer is not the kind of heartless person. The 26 billion is still an investment. The profit of 80 million is only a three-thousandth rate of return. The rate of return in a deposit bank is better than this. it is good?

That's why she has a lot of pressure.

"I agree with what Qi Shao said." Zhu Hong smiled, "The box office of "If You Are the One 2" proves everything! In the future, there will definitely be more than one such movie, such as directed by Feng Baoya, co-produced by Hong Kong and the mainland, etc. There is hope to hit 200 to 300 million. This is especially true for Hollywood movies. The cartoons we watched when we were young have cultivated a large audience. Once the voices of these familiar friends appear on the big screen, the high box office will definitely follow. came after."

"Look, Sister Hong is more imposing than you." Xiao Qi patted the shoulders of the queen sister, "Whether the children eat soup or meat in the future depends entirely on you, children's mother!"

Qiao Guoer wanted to retaliate with him, but Zhu Hong was still by her side, so she could only stare at her lover, leaving a look of "I'll take care of you when I get back", and then ate her dinner quickly.

Seeing Qiao Guoer's little girlish appearance, Zhu Hong smiled slightly: Guo'er can only show her cuteness and innocence unscrupulously in front of Qi Shao! (to be continued ~^~)
