Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 557
Although Lin Daoqiu was very happy when he said it, it was not a simple matter to implement it.

If I want to add another shareholder, Jiahe and Bao Shaogang will definitely not agree.

But the good news is that Lin Daoqiu is the major shareholder of Xiangjiang Cinemas, and already owns more than half of the shares.

Even if Golden Harvest and Bao Shaogang united, their shares would only be [-]% of the shares, so it would be useless for them to object.

When Xiangjiang Cinemas was formed, it relied on Lin Daoqiu's profit sharing. Although he has the most shares, he can only get 3% of the share.

Now Lin Daoqiu no longer intends to give up profits to Jiahe and Bao Shaogang, so he wants to increase capital to dilute their shares.

But as a result of doing so, it is very likely that Golden Harvest and Bao Shaogang will withdraw from Xiangjiang Cinemas, and they may even form a new cinema.

According to the normal business model, the result of doing so must be very unfavorable to Lin Daoqiu, but he is not worried about it.

If a theater does not have enough high-quality movies, even if they form a joint theater, they will definitely not be able to beat themselves.

And with a magic studio in his hand, and Hollywood giving him a blood transfusion, Lin Daoqiu can be said to be invincible.

Although it will be a bit uncomfortable at the beginning, even if it is done like this, it will lead to a decline in the box office trend of Xiangjiang movies that has been growing.

But for the sake of the future, Lin Daoqiu did not intend to give in this time, so as not to be taken advantage of by them all the time.

Gossip outside has been flying all over the sky, and everyone is waiting for Lin Daoqiu to see when he plans to hold a board meeting.

Before that, Fang Jinsheng had inquired that Zou Wenhuai had met with Bao Shaogang several times, and it seemed that they had already agreed that this time they would advance and retreat together.

Regarding Jiahe's choice, Lin Daoqiu had already guessed it, so he didn't react when he heard it.

…………

The filming of "Best Partner" is in full swing, although the departure of Shi Tian and Zeng Zhiwei has had some adverse effects on this film.

However, the original team of New Art City is still there, and Zhang Aijia joined, so those influences did not cause much trouble to them.

Originally Shi Tian played the role, but now it is played by Tsui Hark.

The two people are fairly similar in terms of body shape and appearance, and this role is not important, it is just a person who promotes the plot, so there will be absolutely no problem in letting Tsui Hark play the role.

On this day, Lin Daoqiu suddenly came to the crew to visit the set. Everyone stopped their work and came to say hello to Lin Daoqiu.

"Everyone has worked hard during this time, I bought some snacks to reward everyone."

During this period of time, the story of Lin Daoqiu and Bao Shaogang can be said to have spread to various crews.

As long as they are free, people will definitely talk about this matter, and some people even fight because of arguing over who will win in the end, Lin Daoqiu or Bao Shaogang.

At this time, it was the time when this matter was the most popular, because everyone wanted to know what Lin Daoqiu was going to do.

"Mr. Lin, nice to meet you."

Xu Guanjie happened to be filming in the crew today, this is the first time he met Lin Daoqiu.

After the two shook hands, Lin Daoqiu suddenly extended an invitation to him.

"Mr. Xu, if you don't mind, I have a few words I want to chat with you."

Xu Guanjie originally wanted to say hello to Lin Daoqiu, but he didn't expect that the other party wanted to have a private chat with him.

After thinking for less than two seconds, Xu Guanjie immediately smiled and nodded in agreement.

"No problem at all."

Seeing Xu Guanjie and Lin Daoqiu leave the scene, Mai Jia, Huang Baiming and others gathered together.

"What is Mr. Lin going to talk to Ah Sam all of a sudden?"

Touching his chin, Mai Jia shook his head, he couldn't guess the intention of Lin Daoqiu's move at all.

Huang Baiming thought for a while, his eyes suddenly widened, as if he had thought of something.

"Do you think Mr. Lin wants to lure Ah Sam to New Oriental?"

After Huang Baiming finished speaking, Mai Jia, Tsui Hark and the others turned their heads to him almost at the same time.

You must know that Xu Guanjie is now a member of Jiahe. If Lin Daoqiu really wanted to dig him out, wouldn't he be fighting with Jiahe.

"Probably not. Golden Harvest is a shareholder of Xiangjiang Cinemas. If Mr. Lin does this, how will he explain to Golden Harvest?"

Tsui Hark felt that this should be impossible. After all, since Lin Daoqiu founded Xiangjiang Cinemas, Xiangjiang's box office has been rising steadily, and it seems that it will hit the 4000 million mark.

If he had a falling out with Golden Harvest at this time, then Xiangjiang Cinemas would probably disintegrate because of this, which is something that all filmmakers do not want to see.

"Mr. Lin and Bao Shaogang have had such a quarrel recently. I think Xiangjiang Cinemas will find it difficult to maintain it. I hope there will be a proper result by then."

Maijia is already planning for the worst, but the good news is that New Oriental Cinemas has 22 theaters. Even if Xiangjiang Cinemas disintegrates, they don’t have to worry about having no place to show their movies.

He found a quieter place and asked Fang Jinsheng to guard it. Xu Guanjie knew at a glance that Lin Daoqiu wanted to talk to him, and he probably didn't want others to hear it.

"Mr. Xu, in fact, I have admired your name for a long time, and I am still your fan."

Lin Daoqiu first started by complimenting Xu Guanjie.

"Mr. Lin is too polite, just call me Ah Sam from now on."

Xu Guanjie had already gotten used to Lin Daoqiu's compliments just now, so he didn't show any excitement.

Among the Xu Brothers, Xu Guanwen has achieved the greatest achievement in the film industry.

That guy is an all-rounder at all. For the films he made before, from the director to the screenwriter, all of them were solved by him alone.

But it is a pity that although Xu Guanwen is the guarantee of the box office, it is also the result of his continuous improvement, so it takes several years to shoot a movie.

So even though Xu Guanwen is very good, Lin Daoqiu doesn't want to poach him, so it's better to leave him to Jiahe.

And if Lin Daoqiu remembers correctly, it will take at least 3 years before Xu Guanwen's next movie will be born.

At that time, the taste and format of movies had already undergone earth-shaking changes.

"Sam, to tell you the truth, I actually came to the set today to find you."

Hearing what Lin Daoqiu said, Xu Guanjie still kept a smile on his face. It seemed that he was not frightened by Lin Daoqiu's words.

"I hope you can transfer to New Oriental. From now on, I promise to open at least one movie for you every year, and your singing career will not be affected by filming."

Before Lin Daoqiu opened his mouth, Xu Guanjie more or less guessed that he came this time to poach himself.

In his last life in 1982, Xu Guanjie left Golden Harvest and moved to New Art City.

If it weren't for this, Lin Daoqiu would never have come to talk to Xu Guanjie about this in person.
