Rebirth: I Want to Surf

"The boss bought Golden Harvest, bought theaters, established an online platform, and now he owns a bi-weekly magazine. I heard that he is flirting with ATV.

Not to mention that she is from the Mainland, even Hong Kong people cannot do this.

Does she want to be in control of production, distribution, screening, online platforms, critics, and TV stations? "

"But she has indeed helped Hong Kong films a lot over the years."

"Yes, we admit it, but that doesn't mean we want another Lafayette on our heads, right? Besides, don't say whether to help or not, it's all for making money, and now she has crossed the line!"

Zhang Jiazhen knocked on the table and repeated: "She crossed the line!"

"..."

Zhang Jiazhen is like negotiating with the underworld, Jiang Zhiqiang is helpless, but he has long been used to this kind of atmosphere, he cannot and dare not deny this "leader" position.

Because the Hong Kong circle is a gang in nature, there are different leaders in different periods, if you dare to refuse, you will not be able to get along.

He sighed and asked, "What do you want to do?"

"We don't know how to do it, so I come to ask you, now is not the era of fighting..."

Zhang Jiazhen also sighed, with a hint of nostalgia in his disgust.

The Hong Kong circle is inseparable from the triad society. While being oppressed by the society, these people have also enjoyed the so-called "happy grievances". Whoever has a conflict with whom can be killed with a single shot.

Companies like Meiya and Media Asia are not in the mood to make movies anymore, only Emperor and Anle are still active.

"..."

Jiang Zhiqiang was silent for a long time.

In the past, Hong Kong seemed to be very big, but now, Hong Kong is slowly returning to its original position. This kind of contrast makes everyone look like the old and young of the Qing Dynasty, talking about the glory of the yellow belt all day long.

But everyone knows that going north is the way out, and Hong Kong movies are useless.

Intellectually, Jiang Zhiqiang is unwilling to go to war, but the pressure brought by the boss is too great. What if she is still not satisfied and wants to buy the theater?

That would really touch your own interests.

There are 11 theaters on Broadway, the largest in Hong Kong, and 8 in Golden Harvest, the second largest—maybe in the blink of an eye.

After a long while, he slowly said: "We have cooperated with her too much these years, we have been tied up invisibly, and it should be untied. Huayi, Bona, and Xingmei in the mainland are all pro-Hong Kong, and they are willing to work with her." We cooperate, although the quality of their films is uneven, and now is not the time to think about these.

In addition, there is China Film Group, whose policies are beneficial to us, and we are more close to China Film Group, and gradually decoupled from 99 Entertainment in terms of production, distribution, and screening. "

"Yes, that's the truth!"

Zhang Jiazhen nodded quickly.

"Secondly are directors and stars. We must keep our top names at all costs. Tsui Hark, Lau Wai Keung, Wong Jing, Chen Jiashang, Andy Lau, Louis Koo, Aaron Kwok...as long as they remain active, we will have market share."

"Finally, run a company in the mainland, support mainland directors and stars, and let them be our spokespersons."

"How to do?"

"Give resources, advertisements, and awards. The Academy Awards still have influence. It's not difficult to get a few newcomers out. The older generation and the Mesozoic generation have masters. If you want to find those young ones, first get a queen.

We don't have enough money, so we can find the Li family (Li Zekai), Mr. Li has always been interested in the entertainment industry. Or look for Macau, a bunch of people in Macau are in need. "

What does Macau need?

Use the film to scrub it!

In short, this set of things is exactly what the Hong Kong circle of later generations did. Multi-party cooperation, efforts to protect the head, support newcomers from the mainland, and seek external funds.

It was the last thing that happened. The Macau boss "Xi Mihua" who provided the funds was arrested, and a vice president of Bona who jumped off the building was also hired.

It's very messy here, and it's useless to explain it in detail. If you are interested, go and search for yourself.

"..."

Zhang Jiazhen was convinced when he heard it, and said: "This is the idea of ​​long-term stability, and it will take a few years to lay the groundwork."

"Well, no matter what, we have to admit that the era of Hong Kong films has passed, and we must keep a low profile and hide behind the scenes. In fact, it is all about making money. As long as it can make money, it doesn't matter what way..."

Just as he was talking, Zhang Jiazhen's phone rang.

After listening to a few words, he hung up the phone and said with a smile: "It seems that someone is more anxious than us!"

"What's up?"

"ATV viewers have assembled and demonstrated!"

"Um?"

Jiang Zhiqiang was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head: Well, that's right, before, they were fighting and killing, but now they all talk about the rule of law.

…………

"Cow!"

In the hotel, Yu Jiajia watched the news on TV and wondered: "I didn't have anyone to protest in Hollywood, but I ran into it in Hong Kong, it's amazing!"

I saw the news broadcast, outside the ATV building, more than a dozen people held signs and shouted unevenly: "I love ATV!"

"Against ATV sale!"

"Against ATV becoming a personal item!"

"Stop the civil war, move forward together!"

It's still hard work, I didn't find young people, who would watch ATV? They were looking for elderly grandpas and aunts, who held signs and shouted slogans professionally, and they were very experienced at first glance.

"Pooh!"

Yu Jiajia spat, the little demon in the temple is very windy, and Chi Qian is more than a king!

Don't ask, it must be TVB who is testing, because the news is vague, TVB wants to confirm whether it is true.

The battle between ATV and TVB can't be finished for three days and three nights. The more famous ones are "The Change of the Silkworm", starring Xu Shaoqiang, who dominated the screen back then, and TVB was losing ground.

Just when it was in full swing, the leading actor Xu Shaoqiang suddenly disappeared from the play-it is said that TVB did it.

But ATV was even more amazing, directly changed an actor, and added a setting: It is said that practicing the magic of silkworms can change the muscles, bones, skin and flesh, and Yun Feiyang practiced in seclusion, and when he came out, he had already changed his appearance...

Awesome!

"When I look at people all over the world, I still have to fight with them. It's boring!"

Yu Jiajia turned off the TV, not wanting to waste time on this kind of crap, so she called Ye Jiabao directly: "Come forward and clarify, I'm not interested in ATV, I'm just talking about copyright."

"Why am I here to clarify?"

"You clarified the credibility!"

"But……"

"40 million!"

"Boss Yu!"

"30 million!"

"I'll come out! I'll come out! I'll find a reporter right away!"

Ye Jiabao is in a hurry, the 30 million will be gone any more, even though Yu Jiajia doesn't want to invest, the money to buy the copyright can also solve the urgent need.

The next day, Ye Jiabao's statement came out.

He said Golden Harvest had no intention of becoming the owner, but was just talking about the copyright business. ATV is working hard to coordinate internal conflicts, and will restore order as soon as possible, so as to bring more good dramas to the audience.

After the statement was made, the people who gathered and demonstrated disappeared.

TVB is really worried about Golden Harvest's acquisition of ATV. Golden Harvest is rich and powerful, and it is a rival, so it can't control it legally. Because there is no anti-monopoly law in Hong Kong now, a "Competition Ordinance" will not be implemented until 2015.

Yu Jiajia has been in Hong Kong for many days, and a lot of things have happened.

She just wanted to leave after participating in the Academy Awards.

(besides……)
