"Yongsheng Entertainment?"

Wu Xiaozu folded his legs, put a cigarette in his hand, stared at Xiang Shi and Xiang Tai, and motioned for them to continue talking.

Meng Jiahui struck a long-handled match heartily, squatted down, and lit the cigarette without asking, lightly shook her wrist, extinguished the half-burned matchstick, and finally put the metal ashtray on the boss's most comfortable place to play the ash place.

Sure enough, after taking a puff of the cigarette, Wu Xiaozu played it without even looking at it.

It's exactly where Meng Jiahui puts the ashtray, it's not bad.

"Our Yongsheng Entertainment is different from Yongsheng, basically it will focus on investment and production, and will not participate in or interfere with the director's creation.

The development of the film industry now is different from that in the 80s. We need to give creators greater creative freedom.

Before this, I have also discussed with Wang Jing and Hua Tsai, and I am ready to cooperate with each other to carry out in-depth cooperation. "Xiang Shi's old-fashioned explanation, obviously, his own understanding of the film industry is no less than that of any senior practitioner in the industry.

"This is very good. As long as you control the project well, manage your finances well, and do a good job of issuing, then you will gain more."

Wu Xiaozu nodded slightly, unlike Xiang Sheng who participated in every aspect of the movie, and even had to find the name of the movie from a feng shui master himself.

Xiang Yu doesn't like interfering with directors' creations very much. This is also the reason why 'China☆' can grow bigger and bigger after the couple acquired 'Starlight Entertainment' in later generations, and it is also the fundamental reason why so many directors cooperate with them.

Du Dapao, Luo Shouyao, Lin Lingdong, Tsui Hark, Chen Jiaxuan and others were recruited.He even became a tycoon in the Hong Kong film market to help many practitioners make a living.

Actually...

In terms of word-of-mouth, Xiang Yu and his wife have a good reputation in the circle, and Master Xing is not that noble when he gets along with them. There is no right or wrong in this matter, it is nothing more than the uneven distribution of benefits.

The Xiang couple looked at each other, but Mrs. Xiang chose to speak.

"Brother Zu, we have heard that directors or actors under your company can open their own studios or be in charge of independent companies as long as they reach the level? So we also want to see if we can work together..."

The couple look forward to Wu Xiaozu with a look of hope.

If they can hug the thigh of the locomotive, then they really won half the battle at the beginning.

"I can't answer you about the specific cooperation matters. Sir Jiang has been managing the locomotive since it went public, and I rarely intervene in specific management matters. I hope you can understand.

But I understand what you said.

At present, several film companies under Locomotive Entertainment and Culture Company include New Art City, Jianghu Emergency Film Industry, Ace of Spades Distribution, Bad Monkey Film, Universal Image, Zhengdong Film Industry, and a soon-to-be-established project incubation project for new filmmakers. Brand 'Let the bullets fly for a while production company'.

There are people in charge of these companies. If, Brother Ten, you can negotiate cooperation with them, I will definitely give the green light. "

Wu Xiaozu flicked the cigarette ash, stretched his hand to the side, there was already a tea cup with a suitable temperature, he picked it up, took a sip, and said with a smile: "I think if there is such a good investment and production company as Brother Ten, they should Will not refuse."

"What I want is your words." Xiang Yan raised his teacup boldly, "Azu, you are loyal, and I am not lying. If you need me in the future, I will definitely help you. You also need to help the film company. Don't worry, I will follow the rules."

"Harmony makes money." Wu Xiaozu smiled and accompanied him for a glass.

Wu Xiaozu didn't mind Xiang Shi wanting to invest in or produce films produced by his subsidiaries.

With the expansion of the company's scale, neither Wu Xiaozu nor Jiang Zhiqiang can cover everything, and even the quality of the movies may not be guaranteed as before.

This requires someone to take the risk together.

Film investment, several producers are also normal.

After the listing of Locomotive Entertainment, in order to actively create value for shareholders, they also cut leeks to raise the stock price and expanded their territory.

Just like when Li Lianjie went out to work alone, although he died worse than Zhao Si's father in the end, it also sounded the alarm for Jiang Zhiqiang and others.

Blocking is worse than sparse.

There is no reason to stop others from making money, right?
Jiahe has such courage, let alone them?Even Locomotive is more open than Golden Harvest.

Whether it is a director, actor or other filmmakers, they all have the opportunity to go out alone to start a studio or even start a company.

The distribution here doesn't even need a locomotive to make a big head!
Of course, there are many specific requirements and rules, and they can all be communicated.

During this period, Luodong's "Gangcheng Culture" stage play agency was also preparing to formally establish a company and change its name to: Gangcheng Culture Communication Co., Ltd.

As for Zhou Xingxing, the KPI winner, if Li Lianjie hadn't killed the chicken too hard, he would have secretly gone out to pick up private work a long time ago...

Now, he also intends to go out independently and start his own company and be the boss of the company himself. Regarding this point, the company has not suppressed it.

The film and television industry is capitalized, and talents cannot be suppressed.

Besides, it’s not necessary, money can’t be earned, let’s take a long-term view...Jiang sir is also studying the ‘VAM agreement’ with these companies recently, and will tie them up with the VAM agreement in the future, making them work hard , Isn't it fragrant?
Look at the celebrities who participated in the gambling agreement in later generations, they are all model workers.

In this way, everyone has something to earn.

Of course, the company is also making arrangements for Wu Xiaozu to handle his personal brand film production company: Causeway Bay is a big film company.

Now the first floor of this tea room is the office of this company, and it is so extravagant in such a prosperous area.

No way, if you have money, the property is owned by your own boss... Uh, the office rent on this floor has to be paid normally - the locomotive needs to bear it.

In fact, the main reason for setting up a separate company is for director Wu to facilitate filming, and the ultimate goal is to increase dividends and remuneration.According to his current position, the director's salary may not be lower than that of a first-line star, and even the dividend of a project is considerable enough.

As for why you want to do this?
Nonsense, is the locomotive a listed company?Does Wu Xiaozu not earn money?

Besides, Xiao Ye, the most frugal and rich man on Hong Kong Island with an annual salary of 1 mosquito, also needs money for milk powder!

Who is not a self-improvement man who always wants to make money and not go whoring for nothing?

"I hope to have the opportunity to cooperate with you, Brother Zu." Mrs. Xiang said with a smile when she came back.

Her EQ and standard of handling are also very high. Xiang Yan can call Azu because of many factors, but she always talks about 'Brother Zu'.

One bite at a time, the ancestors shouted very sincerely.Where else is there a strong and domineering image of later generations?

"It's ok, if there is an opportunity, it's fine for us to cooperate together." Wu Xiaozu responded unexpectedly.

This surprised Xiang Yu and his wife, and then they were overjoyed!

The reason Wu Xiaozu accepted is because there may indeed be some Hollywood films that may need financing.If they are willing to participate, why not?
After the decline of Hong Kong movies, these hot money and investments will not disappear for no reason. If there is an opportunity to introduce Hollywood, Wu Xiaozu will naturally be happy to see it.At least in this way, it will be of great benefit to the development of him and subsequent Chinese filmmakers in Hollywood.

"Boss, Boss Qi has been waiting outside for a long time." Meng Jiahui covered the microphone and said, "Xiangji's steak room is also ready."

"It just so happens that everyone eats and talks together at night." Wu Xiaozu stood up with a smile, and Secretary Meng offered to help put on his coat.

Everyone knows the air-conditioning in public places and shopping malls on Hong Kong Island. Even in summer, you may need to wear long sleeves indoors.

Meng Jiahui took the cigar humidor and took the initiative to lead the way with a smile.

"Please... Meng Secretary."

Xiang Tai smiled and glanced at Meng Jiahui, even if it was really a vase by Wu Xiaozu's side, it was enough for most people to take it seriously.Maybe in two years, I will be the manager of a certain department.

Passing through the office area, there are few workstations, but it is covered by green plants, with many oil paintings hanging, many antiques and artworks, and even the whole design seems to be in an art exhibition and gallery. The whole place is more like a private office. Clubhouse rather than a soon-to-be-established production company.

As if seeing Mrs. Xiang's doubts, Meng Jiahui explained with a smile: "Wu Sheng doesn't like that kind of rigid working environment, but because in a big company, this kind of small atmosphere doesn't apply, so it hasn't become popular. This The next time the company set up a personal production team for him, he chose this place according to his hobbies.

The rear is currently being renovated, and the glass roof is also planned to become a public area, as well as a library, video and reference room, where everyone can bask in the sun or watch the stars, and then write scripts or create.There are also billiard rooms, cigar bars and the like.

By the way, these places are also open to the public, except for the office area, these are also open to members. "

That's right.

That big film company in Causeway Bay occupies one floor, but in fact not all the office areas are there. Many places are open to the public, but they are only open to members.

The entire construction style is actually in accordance with the design of private exhibitions and clubs.

"Member orders?" Xiang Tai asked proactively.

"The membership fee is divided into three types: 2.8, 5.8 and 28.8. The first two are individual members, and the latter are corporate members." Meng Jiahui replied truthfully: "But it has not been officially opened yet."

In fact, the membership fee is not high, and Wu Xiaozu didn't think about making money from it.

This money can be used for basic maintenance costs, but most importantly for forming a social circle.Of course, Wu Xiaozu has another purpose, which is not to break away from life.

HK$2.8 and HK$5.8 are definitely not high.

Therefore, this can be regarded as a semi-open clubhouse.

"If it is open, Secretary Meng will definitely notify me." Mrs. Xiang reciprocated and said with a smile.

"Good item."

Meng Jiahui smiled slightly, although she was young, she really grew up very fast by Wu Xiaozu's side.

"What are you talking about?" Xiang Yu approached with a smile.

"I'm talking about the great office environment here." Xiang Tai joked with a smile, "I can't wait to work here."

"Then I definitely welcome it." Wu Xiaozu also joked with a smile.

While talking and laughing, I saw Qi Tongwei who had been waiting for a long time.

A suit jacket, a very high-quality shirt with the first button unbuttoned, and a branch of hair pulled in the middle. The whole person is very stylish, and he is completely a rising business tycoon.

The two parties met, and all kinds of business flattery.

Mrs. Xiang also laughed and actively socialized.

Suddenly, she glanced at a person from the corner of her eye, and she was stunned for a moment, but because of the entertainment that she had to pay attention to in front of her, she didn't have time to explore, so she could only keep her doubts in her heart.

The graceful Zhang Min followed a staff member, turned around and entered the next room.

"Miss Zhang, Mr. Wu is having a business dinner, it may be much later..." the staff tried.

"It's okay. I have an appointment with Secretary Meng and Sir Wu. I'll just wait for him here." Zhang Min smiled slightly.

"Would you like coffee, tea, sparkling water and juice, please?"

"Pure water is fine, thank you."

"You're welcome, then feel free to call me if you need anything." The staff member smiled and exited, leaving only Zhang Min in the room.

This room is not open to the public and belongs to the appreciation room of Wu Xiaozu's personal collection.

Her pair of apricot eyes looked up and down the furnishings in this art space, and stood up curiously to observe them back and forth.

Several copper animal heads made her a little curious.

There are five bronze statues in the glass window, namely: bronze statue of horse head, bronze statue of cow head, bronze statue of tiger head, bronze statue of sheep head and bronze statue of dragon head.

Just weird.

The appearance is actually not delicate, on the contrary, it is ugly and cute...

She bent down and saw a few lines of small characters under these bronze statues. After reading it, she suddenly understood.

These bronze statues were all bought by Wu Xiaozu in second-hand stores and auction houses in the United States. The most expensive one is only 10,000+ US dollars, and the cheapest is only [-] US dollars.

After understanding, I lost interest.

In the 90s, Chinese people hadn't become rich yet, so international speculators haven't targeted these things yet.

Wu Xiaozu was quite at a loss when he bought it... he was afraid that he bought a fake one.

Too cheap!

He is going to find an opportunity to communicate with the relevant departments in the Mainland, and then first confirm the authenticity, and then make a donation.

Although it is true that no one imitates these things, it is indeed not very good-looking, and it is not worth money, artistic value... the benevolent sees the benevolent and the wise sees the wisdom.

——What is valuable is the national dignity and emotion represented by these things.

Wu Xiaozu also hopes to recover some national treasures with his own ability. Of course, he will not spend too much money.

It's not because it's not worth it, but because it's hard to get over it!
There are also some bottles and cans of celebrity calligraphy and paintings beside them, some of which Wu Xiaozu collected in the capital.

Especially the bottles and cans of the Yongzheng period really grew out of Wu Xiaozu's own aesthetics.

Zhang Min stared at these exquisite porcelains and couldn't help admiring them.

Pretty is true.

Then she was a little dazed when she saw a bowl with pink and green material lip and a plate of chrysanthemum petals with lemon yellow glaze.

If she remembered correctly, the last time Wang Xianxian invited her to eat pastries, she was looking for a good-looking container for her afternoon tea. After searching for a long time, it was these pastries that she found, right? ? ?
Feelings are antiques~~~
But think about it, her operation of using Romanee-Conti to roast beef is also clear.

82 Lafite red wine and Sprite were always mixed drinks in the recording studio when she recorded her album.

"Miss Zhang, just now I was informed by the secretary to take you to eat something first, Mr. Wu may have to delay for a while." At this time, a staff member also came in, "Then let you go to the office and wait."

Zhang Min thought for a while and nodded slightly.
