Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978

Unlike others, Pan Disheng went to meet Lin Daoqiu after carefully investigating him.

Although it cannot be said that he knows Lin Daoqiu well, from the analysis of the information found, Pan Disheng can still guess part of Lin Daoqiu's personality.

If he really did what Sammo Hung said and formed a new theater chain with Golden Harvest.

Then the situation will return to the confrontation mode between Baojia Cinemas and New Oriental a year ago. This is not what Pan Disheng wants to see.

"Mr. Pan, if we don't form a new theater chain with Jiahe, our film sources will not be guaranteed."

This is what Sammo Hung is most worried about now.

Despite the fact that there are a lot of theaters in Dibao, they keep showing old movies and they can't attract the audience at all.

Moreover, the quality of the films produced by independent producers varies greatly. If things go on like this, they will have a great impact on Dibao Cinemas.

"Mr. Hong doesn't need to worry about this at all."

Pan Disheng was not worried about this matter. It seemed that he had already thought of a solution to the problem.

Sammo Hung was very puzzled by this. He couldn't understand where Pan Disheng could find so many new films to show?

"Although it may seem inappropriate that we do not form a theater chain with Golden Harvest, at the same time, we can bring in movies from Golden Harvest and New Oriental at the same time."

Pan Disheng's idea was very wonderful. He felt that if he did not form a theater chain with Jiahe, he would be forgiven by Lin Daoqiu.

At that time, not only can we cooperate with Jiahe, but we can also cooperate with New Oriental to create a win-win situation.

But unfortunately, after Pan Disheng finished speaking, Sammo Hung couldn't help but shook his head.

He felt that Pan Disheng was a little too naive, and transferred his idea of ​​​​in the mall to the film industry, and also applied it to Lin Daoqiu.

"What's wrong? Does Mr. Hong think my proposal is bad?"

Pan Disheng felt very strange. He didn't understand why Sammo Hung didn't seem to agree with his ideas.

"Do you think Mr. Lin will agree to show their new film in Di Bao Cinema?"

In response to Sammo Hung's doubts, Pan Disheng nodded directly, looking very confident.

At this time, Sammo Hung suddenly felt a sense of regret. He felt that he should not have left New Oriental and chosen to cooperate with Pan Disheng.

This guy is simply an idealist and believes that everything is natural as long as it is logical.

I just had a bad experience at Lin Daoqiu's place, and I didn't expect that he didn't have a long memory.

Sammo Hung couldn't help but said.

"Mr. Lin will not agree to show New Oriental's movies in Dibao Cinemas."

Pan Disheng looked at Sammo Hung with a puzzled face. He didn't understand why Sammo Hung said this.

"Mr. Pan, do you think that if Lin Daoqiu takes New Oriental's movies to Dibao Cinemas, there will be no harm to them at all, and they can also get a lot of income?"

Sammo Hung has already figured out Pan Di Sheng’s thoughts.

And Pan Di Sheng did think so.

"Is there anything wrong with this? I don't think Mr. Lin will refuse this proposal, which is of no harm to him."

It seems that Pan Disheng is still too young, or that he knows too little about the film industry.

"Mr. Pan, do you think Mr. Lin will help Dibao Cinema Chain develop and grow?"

Pan Disheng was stunned for a moment, and then he seemed to slowly begin to understand what Sammo Hung wanted to express.

"Bringing New Oriental's new films to Di Bao will indeed bring a lot of revenue to New Oriental, but at the same time, it will also help Di Bao become famous. If I were Mr. Lin, I would never agree to this request."

After Sammo Hung finished speaking, Pan Disheng slowly realized that he seemed to have taken it a little too naturally.

In the eyes of businessmen, making money is their first priority, and there will never be anyone who has trouble with money.

But in the film industry, at least Lin Daoqiu, helping Dibao develop is tantamount to digging a hole for himself.

Lin Daoqiu had no reason or need to create a powerful enemy for himself for a little money.

"Can we now only form a new theater chain with Golden Harvest?"

This was one of the last options in Pan Disheng's previous plan, and it was also the worst option.

Sammo Hung nodded.

"Other than that, I really can't think of any other way."

Before coming to see Lin Daoqiu, Pan Disheng thought that everything was under his control.

It shouldn't be difficult to convince Lin Daoqiu to buy enough Xiangjiang theaters.

However, from the time Lin Daoqiu issued the expulsion order until the conversation with Sammo Hung, Pan Disheng began to realize that he seemed to have oversimplified things.

"Does Mr. Lin really not care about the money? What if I charge 73%?"

Pan Disheng was still unwilling to give up just like that. He could even increase the share for Lin Daoqiu.

Sammo Hung did not expect that Pan Disheng was quite generous and was willing to give New Oriental 70% of the share.

But even so, Sammo Hung did not think that Lin Daoqiu would agree to show New Oriental's new film to Dibao Cinemas.

"Mr. Lin can probably earn between 100 and 200 million U.S. dollars by filming a movie in Hollywood. Does Mr. Pan think he will care about these profits?"

This incident is almost universally known in the film industry. When Pandey heard this, the expression on his face became very embarrassed.

…………

"Boss, you rejected Pan Disheng. I guess he might go to find Golden Harvest to form a new theater chain."

After Pan Disheng left, Fang Jinsheng and Lin Daoqiu chatted about the matter.

"If he didn't know my attitude, he might not do this for a while."

Lin Daoqiu didn't think Pan Disheng would be impatient. He would probably come to him again to try a few more times.

It wasn't until he was rejected a lot by himself and realized that there was nothing he could do that he would form a new theater chain with Jiahe.

"Pandey Pan is too idealistic. Unfortunately, this is the film industry, and his previous experience is of no use here."

If it was business, Pan Disheng can be said to be a very successful businessman, otherwise he would not be called the brand king.

But now that Pan Disheng has turned to invest in the theater business, the rules and regulations here are much more complicated than those businesses he did before.

"By the way, you fly to Treasure Island tomorrow to meet Jackie Chan and have a chat with him."

Kowloon Cinema Line was sold to Pan Disheng, and Sammo Hung was poached by the other party. If Lin Daoqiu did nothing, it would be a bit inconsistent with his character.

Originally, he didn't plan to go to Jackie Chan, but now it seems that if he doesn't do it, Jiahe will be a little too cheap.

Moreover, poaching Jackie Chan is equivalent to weakening Jiahe's strength in disguise.

From time to time, Lin Daoqiu can gain a lot of benefits from Jackie Chan.
