HKTV: How is the Great Owl made?

Lin Yao fell in love with the movie "The Fugitive", and Dongyang Company and Bona Pictures came to compete for it.

Both parties kept raising the price to a sky-high price of 15 million, and finally got it.

According to the information Lin Yao knows, this movie [The Fugitive] will eventually earn 30 million yuan at the box office.

30 million, of which 30% will be shared by the theater chain, and a tax of 3 million will be paid.

After excluding the buyout costs and publicity and distribution expenses, there are only hundreds of thousands of Hong Kong paper profits left.

These hundreds of thousands of Hong Kong papers are a bit small for Lin Yao.

But for a newly established company like Dongyang, the meaning is very extraordinary.

Lei Yaoyang is not only making a little money for himself, but also disrupting Lin Yao's plan to represent overseas movies.

Speaking more broadly, Lui Yaoyang will also disrupt the entire overseas agent distribution film market in Hong Kong.

In this way, those ghost film companies will set the buyout price of a movie higher and higher in the future.

It's just giving money to those ghost guys for free.

Lin Yao will never allow this situation to continue!

In the following days, Wang Jianguo found more and more information.

Lui Yaoyang is very willing to invest money in order to be able to run several movies at the same time.

The office buildings of Dongyang Film Company are all rented in prime locations in Tsim Sha Tsui, and a medium-sized film company has also been hired to enrich the company.

Lin Yao knew that Lei Yaoyang himself did not have such great financial resources, and the entire Dongxing was definitely behind him.

The most important thing is that Dongxing leader Weng Ben is behind the scenes.

After Lei Yaoyang thought about it, Lin Yao decided to teach Lei Yaoyang a good lesson!

…

Tsim Sha Tsui, Star Cinema!

This cinema is the largest on Hong Kong Island.

Lin Yao caused a commotion at the scene after he appeared.

Because his film company is a benchmark for representing overseas films.

What's more important is that his true identity is Hongxing Xinlongtou.

There were seven representatives from overseas film companies who came to the Starlight Cinema today.

Seeing Lin Yao appear in person today, everyone knows that today's competition is definitely different from before.

So they all called the boss on the satellite phone and asked if the reserve price should be increased?

The managers of the competing Hong Kong film companies were also calling their bosses to ask if they would fight to the end with Lin Yao.

Lin Yao held a Cuban cigar in his hand. Sit in seat C.

Yun Piaopiao sat next to Lin Yao, waiting for Lin Yao's instructions at any time.

Lin Yao was waiting for someone to appear.

Soon an artistic man in a suit and leather shoes appeared. He didn't say hello to anyone. He came directly to Lin Yao and sat down. He stretched out his hand and said to Lin Yao with a polite scum expression:

"Mr. Lin is indeed a young hero."

Lin Yao held his hand and said with a smile:

"Running Thunder Tiger, right? You've been dancing very happily recently."

"Mr. Lin, do you know what our Dongxing does? But now there is nothing we can do, and there is nothing we can do."

Lei Yaoyang said with a smile.

Lin Yao did not comment, but continued to smoke a Cuban cigar.

Lei Yaoyang didn't take it seriously and continued: "We can't wait for the situation in the Golden Triangle to make ends meet, so I decided to learn from you comprehensively."

"Learning from you to use formal means to make money. To a certain extent, you are my money-making mentor."

Lin Yao withdrew his hand and said with a smile: "You guys can make money very quickly by being a fan, but not so quickly by doing regular business."

Lei Yaoyang said with disdain: "Mr. Lin, why does this sound like a threat?"

"You won't let the whole Hongxing go to war with me, right?"

"Haha, why are you starting a war? It's business, let's compete fairly," Lin Yao said with a smile.

"Okay, how about I have a gentleman's battle with Mr. Lin?" Lei Yaoyang looked at Lin Yao and asked.

Just then, a promoter from a Hollywood film company called Galaxy Pictures arrived.

He is also a big horse, and his figure is also extremely strong. Lin Yao's visual measurement is at least 36f, which is the best among the big horses!

This is a major international company that has already released [Jaws] and [Jurassic Park], all produced by them.

There will be many classic movies coming out in the future.

It is precisely because of this that Lin Yao will be present in person today.

Soon, the 36F big Yangma briefly introduced his company, focusing on the movie, and then went directly to the test screening.

Her name is Zeta Jones, and today's movie is called "The Dragon Is Born" starring Stallone.

After the movie was shown, there was warm applause in the theater.

Because Stallone is now at his peak and is a top Hollywood star.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is a new film presented to you by our company. We noticed that Mr. Lin from Bona Film Company is also here today."

"Mr. Lin, your arrival is a great honor for us, thank you."

36f Ocean Horse is quite capable of doing things.

As soon as I finished speaking, I wanted to go there. A heartless round of applause.

The reason for being heartless is partly jealousy and partly fear.

Lin Yao smiled slightly, stood up and waved.

Then it’s time to spend money.

The film's base price is HK$5 million.

Lin Yao remembers that three months ago, the highest base price for overseas films released on Hong Kong Island was only 1 million.

Even large-scale productions produced by top Hollywood film companies only dare to ask for around two million.

"5.2 million!"

"5.5 million!"

"6000000!"

"800w!"

"10 million!"

After only five calls, the reserve price for the film's distribution rights exceeded 10 million.

Lin Yao was not in a hurry at all, but put on a posture of "you come first, I will take action last."

Dongxing Lei Yaoyang didn't call out the price either, as if he was waiting for Lin Yao.

A few minutes later, the price had reached 13 million.

"13 million, is there anything higher than 13 million?"

The big Yangma with 36F asked loudly with a somewhat excited voice.

Her voice had to be excited because the base price was only 5 million.

According to their estimates, 8 million is already very good, and 10 million is almost a dream.

But now, it has reached 13 million.

When this 36f Yangma was asking questions, he looked at Lin Yao intentionally or unintentionally.

Because any movie Lin Yao likes will definitely be a hit, and he is a benchmark in the industry.

Just when Lin Yao was about to bid, Lei Yaoyang raised his hand and shouted loudly: "I will offer 15 million."

Lin Yao didn't look at it, he directly raised his hand and said: "16 million!"

"17 million!" Lei Yaoyang immediately followed.

"18 million!" Lin Yao said tit for tat.

"19 million!" At this time, another disruptor came to the scene.

"19.5 million!" Lin Yao then shouted.

"Twenty million!" Lei Yaoyang followed immediately and refused to give an inch.

At the price of 20 million, most film company managers have given up on it.

At this price. To recover the cost, the box office needs to be at least 50 million.

In fact, 50 million is still a bit of a loss. If you want to make money, you should start with at least 60 million.

But this means breaking the box office record.

Currently, the one with the highest box office in Hong Kong is "That Killer Is a Little Cold", represented by Lin Yao, and the final box office was only 36 million.

So those who were there are no longer involved.

The smoker smoked, drank tea, coughed, and then looked at Lin Yao and Lei Yaoyang together.

Lin Yao did not continue to bid, but leisurely smoked his cigar, while Yun Piaopiao rubbed Lin Yao's shoulders and beat his legs.

After seeing this move, almost everyone at the scene knew that Lin Yao was giving up.

Then, they all looked at Lei Yaoyang, their expressions a little surprised.

This Dongyang company has been very popular recently. Counting this step, it has already won four movies and released two.

It is said that this gentle young man is from Dongxing.

Hong Hing and East Star, two major Hong Kong groups, have actually entered the film market.

"20 million Hong Kong dollars. Is there anything more than 20 million Hong Kong dollars?"

36f Dayang Mazetta Jones's face was already flushed with excitement at this moment, and he asked loudly:

"Twenty million Hong Kong dollars for the first time, 20 million Hong Kong dollars for the second time, 20 million Hong Kong dollars for the third time, deal done!"

Lei Yaoyang turned to look at Lin Yao and said with a smile:

"Mr. Lin, you admitted it today."

Lin Yao nodded and smiled very gracefully: "Congratulations!"

"Mr. Lin, I know you have a unique vision and don't care about making small money."

"But I'm different. As long as it's not a loss, I'll do it, just to get a good reputation." Lei Yaoyang said with a smile.

Then he added: "Mr. Lin, I really have no intention of going against you."

"It doesn't matter, as long as everyone is happy." Lin Yao said with a smile.

Lin Yao's answer made Ben Leihu look a little confused, and his face slowly darkened?

Then he said: "Mr. Lin, you really have the demeanor of a young hero! Lei Mou admires you!"

On the way back, the water blower said to Lin Yao:

"Mr. Lin, Dongyang Company has snatched four Hollywood movies this month."

"And these four movies are all favored by our company."

"Where? Only one of the four movies is what I want, and the other three are not."

Lin Yao flicked the ashes from his cigarette and said with a smile.

"Then Mr. Lin, why did you come in person today?"

The blowjob girl asked with a confused look on her face.

"Today, of course I'm here to raise the price. If I don't raise the price, how could some people lose money?"

Lin Yao said with a smile.

Hearing what Lin Yao said, the water blower became even more confused.

"Mr. Lin, do you think this movie will not make money today?"

"I think it's very good, everyone thinks it's good, and having Stallone as the starring role is a guarantee of box office.

Lin Yao rolled down the window, blew out a smoke ring, and said:

"Ah Jing, let me tell you this, Lei Yaoyang will definitely lose money on this movie!"

"Uh, no, right? Stallone has been very popular in recent years, and not one of his movies has made a loss."

"Besides, the production level of this movie is world-class." Shuijing reminded.

"Ah Jing, the box office of this movie is actually his buyout price. I will put my words here today, and you will verify it later." Lin Yao said with a smile.

Hearing what Lin Yao said, the water blower was so shocked that he was speechless!

If the box office is only 20 million, then the theater chain will have to take 6 million of it and pay 2 million in taxes.

The cost of publicity and distribution based on Dongyang Company’s high-profile style. It will also be very high.

If this is the case, at least 15 million Hong Kong paper will be compensated.

This is just a loss to the movie.

If all the operating costs of Dongyang Company are included, how long can this film company last?

You must know that the office building rented by this film company costs HK$500,000 a month.

Lin Yao smiled when he saw the water blower still counting his fingers and calculating how much money he would lose from this movie.

Then he admired the night view of Hong Kong Island and said no more.

He came out today just to dig a big hole for Lei Yaoyang.

Stallone is really popular.

It can also be called box office guarantee.

But Lin Yao knew that this movie was his Waterloo.

Since then, these three words Stallone have become box office poison.

Because the production cost of this movie was as high as 100 million U.S. dollars, it only achieved a box office of 30 million U.S. dollars in North America.

Although the box office on Hong Kong Island entered the top 20 of the annual rankings, it ranked 19th at the bottom.

There is only a box office of more than 20 million.

It was not until the release of The Expendables series more than ten years later that Stallone ended his reputation as a box office poison.

What Tianyao wants now is to watch more of Lei Yaoyang's movies, and at the same time, give Hong Kong Island's overseas film distribution agent the buyout price to return to its original shape.

The current market is too excited, there are too many bubbles, and it is irrational exuberance.

Of course, what caused Lei Yaoyang's film company to lose money was bankruptcy, and it was just a small goal. The big goal was to hollow out Dongxing!

Otherwise, Dongxing would come south one after another to cause trouble, and they would only target Hongxing.

It doesn't matter that Hongxing has strong troops and horses now, but it will still be disturbed.

Now that other big clubs in Hong Kong see Dongxing Hongxing rising up again, they will definitely hold back their laughter and watch the fire from the other side.

Even based on some limited intelligence, Lin Yao suspected that Dongxing's large-scale move south this time might very well have allies behind the scenes.

Moreover, the man behind the scenes has been targeting himself a long time ago.

Otherwise, why would Dong Xing only target Hung Hing, and specifically target Hung Hing's Tuen Mun.

Because the situation in the Golden Triangle is turbulent. It directly affects the ecology of Hong Kong Island’s rivers and lakes.

Except for Hongxing, most of the many clubs in Hong Kong are fans.

In a short period of time, the supply of white flour in the Golden Triangle was limited, and many associations were forced to engage in formal industries.

Although it is also available in Thailand, it is not impressive compared to the shipment volume of the Golden Triangle.

Moreover, Hong Kong Island not only has a large local market, but more importantly, Hong Kong Island is the largest transshipment center for No. 4 Aberdeen in the world.

Lin Yao could also guess a little bit about the man behind the scenes, but he couldn't be sure yet.

………

On this day, Hongxing officially moved into its new headquarters.

On that day, Han Bin arranged for fireworks to be set off for a full hour.

The sky in Yau Ma Tei lights up like multiple rainbows gathered in half.

This was followed by dragon and lion dance.

Both sides of the street are all dressed in black suits, Hong Xing brothers.

There were a full 200 people standing on both sides, and more than 100 luxury cars were parked. The sign was definitely in place.

For those who don’t know, I thought it was some international water monkey traveling.

In the past, the old headquarters of Hongxing was too cramped, the space was too small, and it did not have the grandeur of a large community on Hong Kong Island.

So this time when the new headquarters is completed, Lin Yao will of course have to do something grand and grand.

The entire Hong Kong community knew about this. Although Lin Yao did not send an invitation, the leaders of the big societies in the community either came in person or sent representatives to congratulate him.

No matter you know each other or not, come and see the excitement, or just come and get familiar with each other.

What's more, Lin Yao is a celebrity in the world and has become a legend on Hong Kong Island.

Outside the new headquarters, there were four to five hundred people in Hongxing Mazai alone.

The headquarters was already crowded with people.

Congratulations of all kinds were heard.

The various flower baskets and gifts sent were piled up like a hill.

At the entrance of the new headquarters. Han Bin and Brother Ji wore red flowers on their chests and greeted guests at the door happily.

But Hongxing Dragon Head has not yet appeared today.

Han Bin, Ji Ge and other leaders were a little anxious.

"Boom boom boom..."

When they wondered if Lin Yao was in a traffic jam or had other troubles on the road, a low roar of sound suddenly came from 100 meters away.

That's the sound of the latest limited-edition Lamborghini.

Lin Yao was wearing a blue Armani suit, with a straight figure and graceful movements as he stepped out of the latest Lamborghini.

All the Hongxing Mazai stood aside and respectfully shouted to Lin Yao in unison.

"Mr. Lin!"

Unknowingly, except for a few of his closest friends, he called himself Brother Yao.

Most people within Hongxing, including the elders, call themselves Mr. Lin.

Just like calling Jiang Tiansheng Mr. Jiang before.

Lin Yao waved to everyone and then threw away the car keys.

A boy from Hongxing immediately caught it with great skill and went to park Lin Yao's car.

Brother Ji and Han Bin came over together.

"Brother Yao, today all the big clubs, all the medium-sized clubs and some small clubs in Hong Kong came to wish us a happy move. It's a great honor for us!" Brother Ji said with a smile.

"Yes, Brother Yao, our new headquarters is really exciting today!" Han Bin also said with a smile.

Lin Yao nodded slightly, and then called the various guests to greet him. A cordial handshake.

After the arrival of Hongxing Longtou, the ribbon-cutting ceremony officially began.

Lin Yao stood in position C, and as he slowly cut the red ribbon with the golden scissors in his hand, the new era of Hongxing officially arrived!

Lin Yao expressed his gratitude to everyone who came to congratulate him:

"Thank you all for coming to support us. Hongxing will always value harmony!"

Although the words were spoken peacefully, to the ears of the community members present, it felt like a slap in the face.

Lin Yao left the matter of greeting the guests to Han Bin and Brother Ji, and went to the headquarters office himself.

Today's banquet was held at Hongxing's new headquarters, not in the hotel.

Because Hongxing’s new headquarters is large enough, with 9 floors and a total area of ​​10,000 square meters.

There is also a table in Lin Yao's office, which is Hongxing's internal seat.

Today, all the chief ministers in Hongxing brought their horses and gave them valuable gifts.

When Da Fei walked in with his sister KK, holding a box.

Jiu Wenlong smiled and said: Da Fei, see for yourself if you are missing something? "

Da Fei stood on the spot and looked around. When he saw that all the men present were wearing horses, he immediately smiled and said:

"The horses that I, Da Fei, usually pick up are either girls from the stables or little girls. How could I bring such a woman here?

As soon as he finished speaking, KK, who was standing next to him, raised the bag in his hand and hit Da Fei on the head.

"KK, you have become a good person and are no longer a little girl."

Da Fei was so frightened that he ran away and shouted loudly.

Airplane touched his head and joked:

"Da Fei, stop running away. What is that thing you are holding in your hand? It must be something worth less than 100 yuan."

"Damn plane, please don't embarrass me, okay?" Da Fei chuckled.

"Although I, Da Fei, am crazy, can I be so unreliable in a situation like today?"

"Today is the completion of our new headquarters in Hongxing. How can it be so shabby? Although the church where I live is poor, I still have to sell iron to make money..."

"Okay, okay, stop bragging, open it and see what it is." Thirteenth sister interrupted and heckled.

At this time, Han Bin, who was already a little drunk, walked in from outside.

He walked to Lin Yao and reported: "Brother Yao, I've been drinking for a while. I'll let Brother Ji and the elders deal with it now."

Lin Yao smiled and did not answer. Da Fei, who was standing nearby, saw Han Bin and joked:

"Brother Bing, where is your horse?"

Han Bin turned his head and looked. A glance at Thirteenth Sister not far away.

"I'm going to attack your mother, what the hell are you looking at me for? I like girls, but I don't like men with dicks." Thirteenth sister laughed and scolded.

Han Bin didn't speak, just grinning on the spot.

"Open it quickly, everyone is waiting to see it."

"Didn't you notice that Brother Yao didn't say anything, just waiting to see what gift you brought today?" Jiu Wenlong joked.

Lin Yao did not defend himself and said with a smile:

"Open it. If the gift is really less than 100 yuan, I will give you little shoes every day from now on."

At this time, the women brought by the leaders also gathered around.

I want to see what good things Da Fei will send today.
