Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978

The Tseung Kwan O studio covers an area of ​​more than 90,000 square meters, twice the size of Shaw Brothers' Clear Water Bay studio.

However, since the surrounding area is still a wasteland, Lin Daoqiu can still buy the surrounding land in the future to expand the Tseung Kwan O studio.

Lin Daoqiu spent 150 million to buy this piece of land. It will definitely make a lot of money in future generations. Even now, the price can only be considered moderate.

After finding several construction teams, Lin Daoqiu planned to get the prototype of the new studio up as soon as possible.

The antique streets and houses will be built later, but the most important thing now is to create the prototype of the studio.

After Lin Daoqiu bought the Tseung Kwan O studio, many people praised his generosity.

After all, the economic situation in Xiangjiang was not very good at this time, land prices had been falling, and the land transaction situation was very unsatisfactory.

Many people are not optimistic about the future of Xiangjiang, and some people have sold their properties and chosen to immigrate.

Therefore, Lin Daoqiu made such a large investment in Xiangjiang at this time, which makes people feel that he is full of confidence in the future of Xiangjiang, otherwise he would not spend a lot of money to build a new studio.

For Jiahe, Lin Daoqiu's move left them without any means to suppress New Oriental.

The negotiation with Dibao was not going smoothly because Pan Disheng kept delaying, which made people feel that he had no intention of cooperating with Jiahe.

"What the hell is Pan Di Sheng doing?"

Zou Wenhuai was very angry and did not understand Pan Disheng's delay.

Lin Daoqiu has already bought the land and is building a studio in Tseung Kwan O. Pan Disheng actually has the idea of ​​playing both ways.

Did he think that Lin Daoqiu would let Di Bao go by then? This was almost impossible even if he thought about it.

When Pan Di-sheng bought the Kowloon Cinema Chain and poached Sammo Hung and Yuen Biao, he had already forged a deep hatred with Lin Daoqiu.

What he should do now is join forces with Jiahe to see if he can resist Lin Daoqiu, instead of having unrealistic dreams there.

"I have to say that Dibao's current strength is much stronger than Jiahe. We proposed a 50-50 idea, but it is normal for him to disagree."

Jiahe has four people from Xinyi City in his hands, plus Sammo Hung and Yuan Biao, no wonder he is so confident.

Looking at it now, Jiahe's biggest help to Dibao is to provide a certain number of theaters. Other than that, it seems to have no effect on them.

"Does he want to be like Lin Daoqiu and be at odds with us?"

If Pan Disheng really had such an idea, Zou Wenhuai would definitely go and cooperate with Lin Daoqiu without even thinking about it.

No matter how you look at it, there is absolutely no way that Pan Disheng can be Lin Daoqiu's opponent. Anyway, he has to swallow his anger. Of course, he has to find the final winner.

"Mr. Zou, Pan Disheng wants to play both sides, so how about we help him?"

"Do you have any good ideas?"

Zou Wenhuai didn't understand the meaning of He Guanchang's words, but it sounded like he had some way to make Pan Di feel embarrassed.

"Jiahe stood up to support the Academy Awards. When we did this, whether Pan Disheng agreed or refused, Di Bao would definitely be the one hurt the most."

He Guanchang's method is indeed very good. Anyway, Jiahe doesn't have any well-known stars now.

Once Golden Harvest stands up to support the Academy Awards hosted by New Oriental, Pan Disheng will be forced to make a choice.

If he supports it, it will only boost New Oriental's reputation in Hong Kong and help Lin Daoqiu gain fame through the Academy Awards.

If he refuses, it will be tantamount to officially breaking up with Lin Daoqiu, and Pan Disheng will naturally no longer have to have that sweet dream of having both sides.

"Okay, just do as you say..."

That afternoon, Jiahe suddenly held an emergency press conference.

Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang attended together.

"I would like to clarify a rumor from all walks of life. Some people said before that Mr. Lin held the Hong Kong Film Awards and Golden Harvest would boycott it. This is a false rumor and I hereby firmly condemn it."

Zou Wenhuai actually wanted to support the Academy Awards. This was big news, and there was an uproar at the scene.

"If the Academy Awards can be successfully held, it will be of great benefit to the promotion of Hong Kong films. Moreover, Mr. Lin also said at the time that the Academy Awards was held to commend film workers for their hard work during the year.

, of course I will support it.”

This press conference was not long and said very little.

However, Golden Harvest has already stated their attitude, which is to fully support this year's Hong Kong Film Awards.

When the news reached Di Bao, Pan DiSheng immediately called Shun Jianxun and Sammo Hung to his office.

"Zou Wenhuai wants to unite our army."

When Cen Jianxun heard the news, he immediately guessed Zou Wenhuai's intention.

This time, the negotiations with Jiahe had been conducted between him and He Guanchang, with Pan Disheng only showing up occasionally.

"What do you think we should do next? Should we support the Academy Awards or continue to boycott them?"

Although he talks about boycotting, Pan Disheng will not let Di Bao make it too obvious. He just asks his artists not to participate.

At least in newspaper news, there won't be that kind of sensational headlines.

"Mr. Pan, if you plan to formally declare war with New Oriental, then of course we don't need to participate, but personally, I prefer to participate in this grand event together."

Sammo Hung was full of guilt for Lin Daoqiu, and he also knew very well that if the Hong Kong Film Awards could be held, it would definitely be a good thing for Hong Kong movies.

If he were given a choice, Sammo Hung would definitely choose to participate rather than boycott the Academy Awards.

"It's obvious that Jiahe can't reach an agreement with us, so he plans to let us be the spearheads and fight Lin Daoqiu to the death."

I have to say that Jiahe's trick is indeed very vicious and very effective.

No matter what Dibao chooses, there will be no benefits for them, but a lot of disadvantages.

For Pan Disheng, it seems that it is not a good thing whether he supports or not.

"Forget it, Jiahe has already come out to support us. Let's support them too."

Even if he wanted to boycott, he had to work with Jiahe. Pan Disheng felt that he had pushed Jiahe too hard before, causing a rift in their relationship. This was indeed a very inappropriate thing.

"Next time He Guanchang comes over, tell him our bottom line directly."

Pan Disheng actually didn't think about splitting up with the opponent. His appetite wasn't that big yet.

What he was thinking was that Dibao would take the majority of the new theater chain, taking 60% of the shares, while Golden Harvest would take 40%.

As long as it can obtain the position of major shareholder, Dibao can take the initiative.
