Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978

Chapter 1009 The New Oriental Act

Not only Pan Disheng, but also Zou Wenhuai didn't understand what Run Run Shaw meant.

After selling Dibao to Lin Daoqiu, he will control the largest theater chain in Hong Kong. Together with New Oriental and Magic Studio, who else in Hong Kong can compete with him?

At this time, Zou Wenhuai and Pan Disheng both decided one thing in their minds, that is, Lin Daoqiu must have given uncle Liu a lot of benefits during this meeting, so he came to help Lin Daoqiu say this.

"Uncle Six, I don't know what benefits Lin Daoqiu has given you. If you can help him tell this, the price he offers must not be low, right?"

Pan Disheng obviously didn't believe what Run Run Shaw said just now, because he simply regarded himself as mentally retarded.

"Lin Daoqiu did not give me any benefits. What I told is the truth. I hope Mr. Pan will not doubt this."

If it were someone else who said this, Pan Disheng would definitely not believe it at all, but it was Run Run Shaw who said this, which made it difficult for him to judge.

"It's impossible for me to sell Di Bao. Uncle Six should not waste any more words."

Regardless of whether Run Run Shaw accepts Lin Daoqiu's request, Pan Disheng will never sell Dibao to him under any circumstances.

As for Pan Disheng's answer, Run Run Shaw had already guessed it before he came, so he was not surprised at all.

"Mr. Pan, you are in the same profession as a mountain. You are not in the movie business to begin with. There is no need to fight here. Dibao will only lose money if you continue to do it. You should know it very well."

Fang Yihua began to persuade Pan Disheng.

But Pan Disheng couldn't listen to what Fang Yihua said. Now he only wants to defeat Lin Daoqiu and let Michelle Yeoh see who is the real man.

"Mr. Pan, if you are really unwilling to accept our suggestion, you may regret it later."

"What does Miss Fang mean by this? Why do I hear something wrong?"

Pan Di looked at the other party and sneered.

Because Fang Yihua's words sounded like a hint of threat.

"It's nothing. It's just that Wireless Future's advertising space is in short supply. I'm afraid we won't be able to take on Dibao's business. Also, Dibao and Dickson may encounter a lot of trouble in the future."

If soft is not enough, hard will come. Although Fang Yihua did not say it clearly, with Shaw's influence in Hong Kong, it is easy to create some difficulties for Pan Disheng's company.

Moreover, Run Run Shaw's connections in Xiangjiang are far stronger than those of Pan DiSheng and his family. This is far beyond what Pan DiSheng can compete with.

"It seems that Uncle Six and Miss Fang are threatening me. If I don't sell Dibao to Lin Daoqiu, then you want me to attack you?"

Pan Disheng was very angry. The reason for his anger was that he had no way to deal with Shao Yifu and Fang Yihua.

Run Run Shaw didn't say anything, he just sat there with his eyes closed and meditated.

"Okay... okay... in that case, let's wait and see. I, Pan Di, will not compromise."

After Pan Di finished speaking, he stood up and walked out quickly.

It seems that today's negotiation did not yield a result that satisfied Shaw.

However, Run Run Shaw was not worried at all. Even though Pan Disheng acted so tough, in the end, he had no choice but to bow his head under the general trend.

"Uncle Six, do you also want me to sell Jiahe Cinema to Mr. Lin?"

After Pan Disheng left, only Zou Wenhuai was left at the scene.

According to the logic just mentioned, Run Run Shaw might really persuade himself to sell Jiahe Cinema to Lin Daoqiu.

However, compared with Pan Disheng, he is obviously more difficult to deal with. If Uncle Six wants to use his tricks on him, I am afraid he will have to think a lot more.

"I didn't mean that, Wen Huai. I asked you out today because I wanted to talk to you about cooperation."

"What about cooperation? Is there anything that Uncle Six and I can do together?"

Zou Wenhuai didn't understand what Run Run Shaw meant. He currently has neither a film company nor a theater chain.

And just now, Run Run Shaw asked Pan Disheng to sell Dibao to Lin Daoqiu, which proved that he had no intention of acquiring theater chains. If this is the case, then what good cooperation could he and Run Run Shaw have?

"Lin Daoqiu now controls Xiangjiang Cinemas, and Jiahe will be annexed by him sooner or later. Don't you want to change this situation?"

Zou Wenhuai didn't want to change, but the problem now was that Lin Daoqiu had a strong army, money and skills, and Jiahe simply couldn't be his opponent.

If Jiahe had even the slightest possibility at that time, it would not have formed the Xiangjiang Cinema Line with Lin Daoqiu, and then let Lin Daoqiu become the major shareholder.

"Wen Huai is stupid and really can't think of any good ideas, but it sounds like Uncle Six has some clever ideas, right?"

Zou Wenhuai suddenly felt that if Run Run Shaw asked them out this time, it might not necessarily be a bad result for him in the end.

"Lin Daoqiu is very strong, almost to the point of dominating the Hong Kong film industry, but it is very simple to deal with him. You should have heard of the "Paramount Act"."

As soon as Run Run Shaw said these words, Zou Wenhuai stood up from his chair in shock.

The reason why the "Paramount Act" was originally established was to curb the vertical monopoly behavior of major studios. Major Hollywood studios were forced to separate the business of film distribution and cinema exhibition.

Lin Daoqiu now owns theater chains and film companies. If Hong Kong comes out with a "New Oriental Act", then Lin Daoqiu will have to give up the theater chain business.

"I wonder how sure Uncle Six is?"

Although Zou Wenhuai asked this question, with Uncle Liu's influence in Xiangjiang and his relationship with England, it would not be too difficult to accomplish this matter.

"As long as you stand up and support it, there will be at least 70% chance."

Run Run Shaw continued: "Let Lin Daoqiu be responsible for production and distribution, and we control the theaters. It is better for everyone to strike a balance than to let him monopolize everything."

The method proposed by Run Run Shaw is indeed very damaging, but it has to be said that as long as those guys in England are dealt with, it will indeed be a major blow to Lin Daoqiu.

"Wen Huai, you don't have many stars left in your hands now. Even if Xu Guanwen returns to Jiahe, how can he help you? I hope you can seriously consider my suggestion."

It has to be said that Run Run Shaw's method is indeed the only way to deal with Lin Daoqiu now, so that he will not become a giant in the Hong Kong film industry.

Once he refuses, there will be no possibility for Jiahe to turn around from now on.

"I need some time to think about it..."

Zou Wenhuai was obviously moved, but this decision was too important. He needed to go back and discuss it with He Guanchang before making a decision.
