Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978

Chapter 184 The New Film Tycoon

The people who are most opposed here are probably Mai Jia and Shi Tian.

When Lei Juekun found them, he promised them a lot of things, so Mai Jia and Shi Tian Tian were desperate to come over.

But now that Lin Daoqiu has bought Princess Jin, he naturally does not need to abide by the agreement between Lei Juekun and them.

It's okay if Mai Jia and Shi Tian want to leave now, but where can they go?

Switching to Jiahe? It is estimated that Zou Wenhuai will not accept them, because he had already issued a banning order on the people of Endeavor Company.

It is even more impossible to switch to Shaw Brothers. With Shaw's character, it is simply a fantasy to want to establish an independent production company to join him and then share the profits equally with Shaw.

But in the final analysis, this is all because Mai Jia and Shi Tian have not made any high-grossing movies yet, so they are in such a dilemma.

If they, like Lin Daoqiu, make one or two movies that win the box office, then they don't need to look at Lin Daoqiu's face and act like this.

"The former Endeavor Company will be renamed New Art City, and its members are the seven people sitting here. As for the shares you hold, I have already distributed them for you. The future box office share will also be distributed according to this ratio."

Lin Daoqiu directly decided on the name of Xinyi City and their shareholding ratio without even discussing it.

First of all, Lin Daoqiu is the major shareholder, so he gets 30%, Mai Jia and Shi Tian each get 15%, and everyone else gets 10%.

Because Tsui Hark had just joined, he and Shi Nansheng each got half of it.

It seems that Lin Daoqiu's distribution is fair. Mai Jia and Shi Tian get the most, and everyone else can get it.

But for Mai Jia and Shi Tian, ​​this allocation is very unfavorable to them.

Previously, Shi Tian accounted for 20%, Huang Baiming accounted for 10%, and the remaining 70% was divided equally between Princess Jin and Mai Jia. The others were basically wage earners and had no shares.

But now that Lin Daoqiu has such a distribution, although everyone has meat to eat, it can be said that Maijia suffers the most.

Based on the previous income, he could get 35%, but now only 15% is left, which can be said to be a full 20% less. How could he bear it?

"Mr. Lin, I feel that the distribution of this is not appropriate."

Mai Jia just held back his anger for the time being, but Lin Daoqiu was simply too bullying. He lost a full 20% of his income in one fell swoop. Anyone would think so.

In fact, Lin Daoqiu had already thought about this matter before he came, and he also knew that Mai Jia would definitely express his dissatisfaction on the spot, so he was not surprised at all.

"I know that Mr. Mai used to receive 35% of his income, and now he will be unhappy if it is suddenly reduced by 20%."

I believe that if such a thing happened to anyone present, no one would be happy. It is no wonder that Maijia expressed his dissatisfaction in public.

"But you should think this way, although your shares are reduced by 20%, you will get more money in the future than before."

Lin Daoqiu's words made Mai Jia a little confused. He had already lost 20% of his share. How could he get more money than before?

What he said was an insult to his own intelligence. Did Lin Daoqiu think he was a three-year-old child?

But Lin Daoqiu didn't seem to see Mai Jia frowning, so he continued.

"The box office of the movies you made before was between one and two million. Even the current box office of "Ghost Riders" was only about five million at most. According to the previous share, you can get almost one hundred

Around 10,000, right?”

What Lin Daoqiu said was all true, so Mai Jia didn't think about refuting what the other party said, so he nodded.

But Mai Jia couldn't understand why Lin Daoqiu said these words.

"I can assure you that your income in the future will only be more than before. If you fail to do what I said, you can leave at any time and I will never stop you."

Except for Mai Jia and Shi Tian, ​​everyone present was very satisfied with the share they received, so naturally they had no intention of leaving.

The current problem is between Mai Jia and Shi Tian. Shi Tian is okay. After all, compared with Mai Jia, the number of shares he lost is still within an acceptable range.

So the biggest problem lies with Mai Jia. If he doesn't accept it, he can only choose to leave.

But since there is no good place to go now, Maijia can only agree to it for the time being.

"Okay, since Mr. Lin said this, I will stay temporarily. If Mr. Lin cannot fulfill what he said by then, then I will have to find another way."

Maijia's decision can be said to have saved his film career. If he chose to leave at this time, it would not be long before he would have no place to show the film even if he made it.

"By the way, Mr. Lin, what is the name of the new theater chain?"

At this time, Zeng Zhiwei changed the topic to another place in order to ease the atmosphere.

In fact, Lin Daoqiu thought about the name of the new theater chain for a long time and couldn't decide. In the end, he simply chose a very old-fashioned name.

"In the future, Princess Golden will be renamed New Oriental Cinemas."

Everyone applauded when they heard this name, but in fact they didn't know why Lin Daoqiu chose this name.

However, they are all guessing that Lin Daoqiu may have chosen this name because he wanted to dominate the entire Asian film market based on New Oriental Cinemas.

After all, he is less than twenty years old now, and he is still so capable. I believe it is not impossible for this idea to be realized.

…………

The change of ownership of Princess Jin has not been announced yet, so most people don't know about it.

However, when Princess Golden was officially renamed New Oriental Cinemas, everyone realized that Lin Daoqiu had bought Princess Golden without any notice.

Almost at the same time, this news appeared on the front pages of all newspapers.

And these newspapers and magazines gave Lin Daoqiu a new name, calling him Hong Kong's new movie tycoon.

A young man who has only been swimming in Hong Kong for a year and a half and is less than twenty years old has actually acquired an entire theater chain.

What Lin Daoqiu did cannot be overstated as a miracle.

And his legendary experience has become the envy of many people.

Many young people have even begun to follow Lin Daoqiu as a role model, thinking that one day they can stand out and make a lot of money like him.

However, it can be said that Lin Daoqiu turned a deaf ear to outside voices. Even newspapers like Ming Pao were blocked from interviewing him.

But the more Lin Daoqiu behaves like this, the more people become interested in him. After all, everyone is curious about mysterious things and wants to find out.
