    It seemed that Zhang Guozhong was really sincere when he came this time. Not only Lin Xiaozhi heard the overt and covert temptation in his words, but also Chen Qiang.  Lin Xiaozhi has always had thoughts about Zhang Guozhong's artistic abilities.  It's just that what he originally bought out was the entertainment shares held by famous brand king Pan Disheng. Although Pan Disheng held a large number of entertainment shares, Zhang Guozhong only sold the shares to him to invoke a boost, plus Pan Disheng.  Making movies is nothing more than advertising for its major brands, so the agreement signed by the two people was clearly written in black and white. Pan Disheng only has the authority to supervise the entertainment and share the company's growth dividends, while the management rights are  He held it firmly in his hand.  The contract also stipulates that Pan Disheng¡¯s sale of shares must obtain Zhang Guozhong¡¯s consent, and Zhang has the right of first refusal.  When Dickson Poon sold the shares privately to him without informing Leslie Cheung, it was unethical. The famous brand king did not intend to continue to stay in the film industry in the future, so naturally he patted his butt and took the money and left.  Afterwards, Zhang Guozhong also pretended not to remember this and brushed the matter over lightly. In other words, he owed the other party a favor.  In addition, Zhang Guozhong has a good reputation and connections in the industry, so in the past few years, although Lin Xiaozhi repeatedly wanted to completely take over his artistic skills, he could not find an opportunity to take action.  It¡¯s better now, Zhang Guozhong himself came to the door.  Naturally, he didn't want to miss such a good opportunity. He gave Chen Qiang a wink and Chen Qiang spoke first knowingly: "Media Asia and the entertainment industry are as close as one family. If Mr. Zhang really encounters difficulties, I believe the board of directors will  They will allow us to lend a helping hand. But I don¡¯t know what kind of help Media Asia needs.¡± Because Media Asia is a listed company, the shares held by Lin Xiaozhi were not transferred to Media Asia.  Although there have been many cooperations between Media Asia and Entertainment in the past few years, such as several movies starring Zhou Yunfa and Andy Lau invested by Entertainment, Media Asia also invested a sum of money in them. ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Because the shooting sites at Yi Neng are all with small and medium-sized costs and they don¡¯t make much money, although there is some profit.  But compared with the huge returns created by Media Asia¡¯s investment in films shot by directors such as Xu Ke and Liu Zhenwei, it is not worth mentioning at all.  It is also for this reason that directors from some organizations who are appointed to the board of directors of Media Asia have often openly and covertly accused Lin Xiaozhi of doing this for his own selfish reasons and using Media Asia's money to develop entertainment (he is the major shareholder of entertainment).  .  Zhang Guozhong must also know this, so Chen Qiang deliberately said this to follow his boss's thoughts and hint to him that although Lin Xiaozhi is the major shareholder of Entertainment, Media Asia has nothing to do with Entertainment, even if it is to  Help has to pass the board of directors level.  Zhang Guozhong obviously understood, but to the surprise of the two of them, his expression did not change at all. Instead, he seemed to be relieved. He loosened his tie, nodded and said: "Lin Sheng, Mr. Chen, are you willing?"  I can finally breathe a sigh of relief after reaching out for help. If possible, I hope to get a low-interest loan of at least 50 million from Media Asia as soon as possible to ease the company's current financial constraints. We also have a limited repayment period.  I hope it can be extended to 1994. The rapid development of Media Asia in the past few years has also brought a great impact to the entertainment industry. In the next two years, the entertainment industry will also try to take the blockbuster route and improve the plot and special effects.  Kung Fu. And Media Asia has the best special effects company in Hong Kong. I also hope that Media Asia can provide some technical support." Chen Qiang looked a little strange. Although the low-interest loan of HK$50 million is not very high, in the Hong Kong film industry  However, it is already considered a large-scale loan, not to mention that Zhang Guozhong has other demands.  He raised his head and glanced at his boss, but found that Lin Xiaozhi did not notice his eyes, but had a thoughtful expression on his face.  He thought for a while and was about to speak again, but Zhang Guozhong spoke again, "Of course, as a thank you and reward for Media Asia's aid to the entertainment industry, all the films produced by the entertainment industry in the future will be handed over to Media Asia for distribution. At the same time, I promise  Media Asia will only follow the lead and advance and retreat with Media Asia. As long as Media Asia ensures that it does not interfere too much in the management of Arts Network, I can also decide to sell another 10 Entertainment shares to Lin Sheng or Media Asia." The first half of his sentence.  When the words came out, Chen Qiang and Lin Xiaozhi didn't care much at all.  Compared with what ArtNet can get from Media Asia, it is not an exaggeration to hand over all film distribution to Media Asia in the future. Even because Media Asia's channels cover Southeast Asia and even Europe and the United States, it is not an exaggeration to say that he has made money.  But after hearing what Zhang Guozhong said, not only Chen Qiang was overjoyed, but even Lin Xiaozhi also had an overjoyed expression on his face.  "The people here are all idiots. Lin Xiaozhi originally held nearly half of the shares in Yineng and was already the largest shareholder in Yineng.  If Zhang Guozhong sells him another 10 shares, he will have completely obtained the controlling stake in Yi Neng.  Moreover, when Zhang Guozhong opened his mouth just now, he emphasized the idea of ??selling to Media Asia. The implication seems to be that as long as Media Asia is not too involved in entertainment and business operations, he is not averse to becoming a new member or even subsidiary of the Media Asia family.  This is something that he, who has been coveting artistic talent for a long time, cannot refuse.?, So Lin Xiaozhi didn't think much about it at all. Almost as soon as he finished speaking, he smiled and nodded in agreement.  Naturally, the signing of the specific agreement would not be done hastily. The two parties reached a verbal agreement and agreed to discuss it in detail after drafting the agreement the day after tomorrow. Zhang Guozhong settled his worries and did not stay long, and left soon.  But before leaving, he said something to Lin Xiaozhi alone, which made Lin Xiaozhi, who had been hesitant about bailing out the market for a while, finally make up his mind.  He said: "Sheng Lam, it has been a troubled time recently, and we should not speak secretly. It is an undisputed fact that the Hong Kong film industry has been invaded by the underworld in the past ten years, but as a result, many film companies and filmmakers at the bottom have received huge sums of money.  The funds for filming the film. Now that the Hong Kong government is cracking down on criminal gangs, I heard that the Organized Crime and Triad Investigation Bureau and the Commercial Crime Investigation Bureau have begun to investigate the gray capital flowing into the industry from several major organizations. In the past week, all  I know that there are no less than ten film company bosses and directors who have been invited to have tea. Now those Taiwanese guys have started to bully people together again. If no one stands up again, our Hong Kong film industry will really suffer.  "It's hurt." As he said, the decline of Hong Kong movies in history was due to the kick-off of Hong Kong's crackdown on gangs. A year later, the Hong Kong government completely abolished the entertainment tax and opened theaters and access thresholds to European and American capital.  American films, which have been invaded by abundant capital, relied on millions of dollars in advertising, and it only took a very short time to successfully reverse Hong Kong people's dislike of American films. Wait until "Jurassic Park"  "" and "Titanic" and other American blockbusters achieved sensational success in Hong Kong, which not only completely defeated the last stubborn resistance of Hong Kong local films, but also made the audience fully aware of the gap between Hong Kong films and American blockbusters.  In the end, he succeeded in kicking Hong Kong Film, an opponent he had fought with for half a century in Asia, into the dustbin of history, with no room for improvement.  Lin Xiaozhi didn't know much about the Taiwan Association of Small and Medium-sized Cinema Operators, a Taiwanese private organization that only appeared briefly in the early 1990s. In the previous life, he had only read about it in a few Hong Kong film histories and the autobiographies of some Hong Kong directors.  It's only been mentioned a few times.  He remembered that the well-known Hong Kong screenwriter Wen Jun once said, "in those few years, a group of returning immigrants with real materials left, leaving behind many short-sighted people who just followed whatever movie became popular. Later.  The capital chain was suddenly cut off again, and we still had to face competition from foreign films and the joint efforts of some small and medium-sized cinema operators in Taiwan to lower prices. After struggling for a long time, we were tossed by others again and again.  The capital-guaranteed Taiwan has been lost, and Hong Kong, my hometown, has been invaded. Even local theaters are unwilling to continue showing Hong Kong films. It is getting harder and harder to make money in movies. Everyone thinks that they are fools to continue this money-losing business, so the rest is left.  Those who left the film industry have all gone to retire, and the few who have entered the mainland have been doing well. When Hong Kong films are allowed to go north, those who want to come back and continue making movies will not only have to face barriers but also have no money.  Faced with competition from mainland counterparts and foreign films, everyone found that they would not be able to make films after a few years of drought, and Hong Kong films were over" Don't look at Lin Xiaozhi and Yongsheng's boss Xiang brothers, who have some personal relationships, but for the society's invasion of Hong Kong films  He was also afraid of and secretly hated his behavior, and he always regarded it as a cancer in his heart.  Media Asia is the largest and most powerful film group in Hong Kong, plus he controls many powerful media in Hong Kong, and he is also the chairman of the Hong Kong Film Association. Originally, he had the ability to influence this wave of British Hong Kong governments.  Leading the anti-black wave.  However, because the anti-gangster operation can indeed cut off the vicious hands of some associations in the Hong Kong film industry, he has never been sure when to intervene and tried his best to save some film companies.  Now that Zhang Guozhong woke him up, he also learned that there was a group of Taiwanese guys behind the scenes who were taking advantage of the situation and adding insult to injury. Lin Xiaozhi suddenly realized that if no one stepped forward, the Hong Kong film industry would not be able to change immediately even because of Media Asia's butterfly effect.  If it goes into decline like it did in history, I am afraid that it will also cause severe damage to the muscles and bones and vitality.  So, it¡¯s time for him to take action.
