Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978
Chapter 31 Overseas Agency Right
A month ago, Feilong could not have imagined that one day he would become Jiahe's guest.
Seeing He Guanchang smiling in front of him, Feilong felt a little uncomfortable, because when he met He Guanchang before, the other person's airs had always been very high, which made him very annoying.
"Feilong, Jiahe has decided to fully support your play. From now on, all theaters under Jiahe will show it."
He Guanchang was not like this before. He felt that the eight theaters were giving too much, and even thought about reducing it by half.
If it weren't for his status as the boss of Feilong Zhongyi Hall, He Guanchang would really be able to do such a thing.
"Thank you, Mr. He." Even after hearing that He Guanchang wanted "Master Qian" to be shown in all theaters in Jiahe, Feilong did not show any expression of gratitude or excitement, but acted as if it was a matter of course.
He is not worried that He Guanchang will push "Master Qian" out because of his attitude, because if he dares to do so at this time, it will only be an advantage to Shaw Brothers.
And even if He Guanchang really had trouble with money, Jiahe's boss Zou Wenhuai would not agree.
Although he had a smile on his face, He Guanchang was very angry in his heart. He had looked down on people like Feilong from the beginning, and now that the other party looked like he didn't take him seriously, He Guanchang felt even more angry.
However, the current situation is stronger than others. You don’t have to watch this movie to know that it will only be a matter of time before it breaks 3 million in a dual-screening situation. It just depends on what kind of box office it can achieve in the end.
But just getting a good box office in Hong Kong is not enough for He Guanchang to lower his profile like this. What he is interested in is the overseas agency rights of this drama.
In this era, as long as a Hong Kong movie can get a good box office locally, it will definitely make more money when it is sold out of the country, and it can even be sold abroad to earn Japanese yen and US dollars.
If we talk about its ability to export overseas, Shaw Brothers is definitely the top production company in Hong Kong at this time, while Golden Harvest can only be ranked second.
As far as he knew, the agency rights for "Master Qian" were still in his hands and had not been handed over. He Guanchang was so low-key because he wanted to get the overseas agency rights.
"Feilong, this movie looks like it should do well at the box office. If it is released in Taiwan or Southeast Asia, it will definitely have a higher box office than in Xiangjiang. It is not impossible to even get it released by RB in the United States."
Now He Guanchang had to give Feilong some crazy soup first. He was sure that the other party didn't understand the inside story at all, so he wanted to take advantage of this moment to sign the agency contract with Feilong first.
Once the contract is signed, it will be useless for Feilong to cheat. If he regrets it, he will have to pay an astronomical amount of liquidated damages.
"I don't know what I can do to get it to be released there?" Upon hearing this, Feilong immediately showed a very interested look on his face.
He Guanchang patted his chest and said: "It's actually very simple. You just need to hand over the agency rights of "Master Qian" to us, and then you just wait to collect the money."
"I wonder how much overseas box office share Mr. He plans to give us?" At this time, Lin Daoqiu suddenly walked in from the door.
When He Guanchang met Lin Daoqiu again, he no longer despised him as before, because he had sent people to carefully investigate Lin Daoqiu before, and got an incredible investigation result.
An eighteen-year-old young man who had just come from the mainland made a movie with the support of Feilong. The movie had only been released for less than half a day and had already earned more than half a million yuan at the box office.
According to people who are familiar with Shaw Brothers, Guo Youhua joined "Master Qian" for free. It is said that this has something to do with the people around Fang Yihua.
Although everyone is rumoring that Lin Daoqiu is related to Fang Yihua or Liu Shu, He Guanchang is sure that Lin Daoqiu must not be familiar with them, otherwise Feilong will never be able to invest in this drama.
As for why Guo Youhua joined for free in the first place, there must be a reason, but He Guanchang has not been able to investigate it yet.
But these were no longer important to He Guanchang, because he had realized that the smiling and harmless young man in front of him was definitely not as innocent as he looked.
"Mr. Lin, it's been a long time." He Guanchang put away his smile, stood up solemnly, then walked up to Lin Daoqiu and stretched out his hand to him.
If he had not heard what He Guanchang said from Lin Zhengying before, Lin Daoqiu might still have great respect for the old man, but now he just looked at the other person's hand and did not reach out to shake it.
Feilong on the side couldn't stand it anymore. He Guanchang was a big boss of Jiahe Company after all. It was not good for Lin Daoqiu to refuse to give him face. He quickly coughed twice to remind Lin Daoqiu.
"This junior has something I don't know whether to say or not." Lin Daoqiu raised his head and looked at He Guanchang and asked.
He Guanchang nodded and said, "Mr. Lin, please feel free to say it."
"I heard someone from Jiaheli say before that a big boss is not optimistic about our drama, and even said that our drama will definitely fail at the box office. I wonder if Mr. He has ever heard of such a thing?"
He Guanchang said these words. Of course he knew it very well, but in front of Lin Daoqiu he could only pretend to be confused.
"Is there such a thing? If there is such a person, please ask Mr. Lin to point it out, and I will ask him to apologize to you immediately." He Guanchang was very skilled in telling lies, and could not even see any flaws.
If Lin Daoqiu had not known the result before, just looking at He Guanchang's expression, he would have thought that he had wrongly blamed him.
"It's just a rumor I heard. Since Mr. He said it's not true, it should be just a rumor spread by others." Lin Daoqiu smiled and did not pursue the matter further.
Although Lin Daoqiu did not say anything further, He Guanchang did not think that Lin Daoqiu just mentioned this matter casually. I am afraid that he said this to beat himself up, or even with a hint of warning in it.
Is the other party really only eighteen years old? He Guanchang really can't believe that an eighteen-year-old can have such a palace? It's simply unbelievable.
"All matters related to "Master Qian" will be left to Ah Qiu, and what he said is what I said." Feilong left after leaving these words, leaving only the Southeast brothers to Lin Daoqiu.
If his opponent was Feilong, He Guanchang was confident that he could confuse the opponent, but now that he was Lin Daoqiu with a smile on his face, he suddenly felt a little lacking in confidence.
"Mr. Lin, since Feilong has entrusted you with full authority to handle "Master Qian", I would like to talk to you about the overseas agency rights." Even if it is Lin Daoqiu, we have to talk, otherwise what can we do?
"In terms of the ability to operate the sales port in Xiangjiang, Shaw Brothers is undoubtedly the first, and Jiahe can only be ranked second. If I want to cooperate, Shaw Brothers is my first choice, followed by Cai Jiahe."
Lin Daoqiu directly defeated He Guanchang's army as soon as he came up, but what the other party said was absolutely correct. He Guanchang was so angry that he couldn't hold back his anger, but he couldn't get angry on the spot.
"Mr. Lin is right. Although our ability to sell ports is not as good as Shaw Brothers, our sincerity is definitely higher than Shaw Brothers." Since our ability is insufficient, we can only make up for it with sincerity.
At the beginning, Shaw Brothers missed out on Bruce Lee and the Hui brothers because of their arrogance, but Golden Harvest recruited them all with sincerity. As soon as they came in and out, Golden Harvest slowly rose in Hong Kong, thus threatening Shaw Brothers' status.
.
"I wonder how much sincerity Jiahe can give?" Lin Daoqiu asked very directly. He seemed not to know what tact meant.
"Five percent of the total overseas box office, or 10 percent of the total overseas box office profit."
Less than two seconds after He Guanchang finished placing the price, he heard Lin Daoqiu suddenly burst into laughter.
