    And with an income of HK$5 million, it has to be a blockbuster, a very memorable movie. Such movies are not common in the history of Hong Kong movies, and there are usually only a few movies.  Under normal circumstances, the money Hong Kong filmmakers can earn in the Taiwan market is only one to two million Hong Kong dollars, but even so, they will be very happy. After all, they cannot compare with Li Mingbao.  Therefore, for Li Mingbao, Taiwan¡¯s ban will not have much impact on him at all.  If Taiwan was really so determined, there wouldn't be so many people from Hong Kong investing in the mainland.  To put it bluntly, Taiwan¡¯s ban on artists must be based on individual decisions.  A new actor like Tony Leung needs connections but no connections, and money but no money, so he only has a name. In fact, during the third Academy Awards, the gold content of this award was really not that important.  When the Academy Awards really started to take off, it was only after TVB funded the event.  The previous three awards didn't have much influence at all, otherwise the first Academy Awards wouldn't have had all the best actors and actresses beating girls and boys.  Afterwards, the gold content of the Academy Awards became higher, which is why there was such a craze. Anyway, not many people cared about the first three Academy Awards, which meant that they became popular later on, so it seemed quite serious.  Liang Jiahui is also unlucky, but the matter is really not that serious. Otherwise, if Liang Jiahui appears on the screen again, Zhou Runfa and others will not be able to clear things up.  For Liang Jiahui, Taiwan's intention of killing chickens to scare monkeys is quite serious, but if they really want to attack powerful people, they have to consider whether it is worth it.  ¡° If Li Mingbao is really made anxious, and Li Mingbao makes a special trip to Taiwan to apply eye drops, they will be sick to death.  As long as Li Mingbao goes to Taiwan to screen movies in the name of Hollywood in the United States, do you think Taiwan will release them?  Or let it go?  So, Li Mingbao really doesn¡¯t care what happens to Taiwan.  If they really want Li Mingbao to make a choice, Li Mingbao will give a very clear answer. Therefore, as long as Taiwan has a brain, they will not force people like Li Mingbao to cheat, because the consequences of that will not be very beneficial to Taiwan.  After hearing Li Mingbao¡¯s rebuttal, several other people stopped talking on this topic.  To be honest, among the few people present, no one really valued what was happening in Taiwan.  Although Uncle Liu continues to make movies, his main interests are in television stations. Unless Taiwan opens up the interests of television stations now, then Uncle Liu may be quite determined to draw a clear line with the mainland.  But the problem is that for Taiwan, this thing cannot be opened up just because it is opened up, so Uncle Liu¡¯s interests are not big in Taiwan.  For Zou Wenhuai, the threat from Taiwan may have some weight, but if it rises to the level of life and death, it does not matter.  It is true that Taiwan can make Jiahe quite disgusting, but when it comes to deciding Jiahe's life or death, Taiwan is not that capable yet.  Besides, it's not like Jiahe has nothing to do with it in Taiwan. The word "block" is really unreasonable when applied to Jiahe.  As for the Xiang brothers, let alone that. Their counterparts in Taiwan are still in the same industry. Who cares about the situation there? Even if they sell movies, they will not be able to meet them.  When trouble comes, don't forget that the relationship between the Xiang brothers and Taiwan is not simple.  Therefore, this threat does not pose much threat to them.  As for Cui Xiaoming, he has no right to speak.  Although there are Taiwanese bosses behind him, Taiwanese bosses are in the minority after all. If you don't do your job well, does it have to do with other shareholders?  No one really cares about the threats over there, so the original meaning of this topic is to remind you.  Now that Li Mingbao doesn't care so much, the other people won't waste time on this matter.  "Now the drying work of all cinemas has been basically completed. Except for the last batch of cinemas that will need to wait for a while to open, other places can meet the needs of screening. It can be said that after this renovation,  In the next ten years, Hong Kong will no longer need to invest in cinemas. This is good news. The total number of screens in our cinemas is only about 120 yuan.  After this renovation, the number of movie screens we have has increased from 120 yuan to about 300 yuan. The total number of movie screens in Hong Kong is now 326 yuan.  , except for the 300 screens we have, the total of other cinemas is only 26 yuan. Of course, not counting those wild screens, which do not create much revenue. Our theater chain has an absolute advantage in Hong Kong.  Yes, I believe that other cinemas will have immediate feedback from the market after our cinema chain is completely completed. Except for leftist cinemas, other cinemas will not make any profit at all unless they screen salty and wet films around the clock.  salty wet slices, they can't last long.  "Uncle Liu said this, and he was very excited. "Although the United Cinema Line cannot be regarded as his full credit, he has a share in such a theater chain that has far-reaching significance to Hong Kong. In fact, Uncle Six is ??already satisfied. Once the theater chain  The simplest thing to form a monopoly is that the profit of the movie can immediately increase by a large amount. Even if it doubles at once, it is still acceptable to Hong Kong people.  The effects are two completely different concepts from before. Even if the current ticket price is doubled, it is still profitable for those who watch movies. Compared with the old shabby chairs and benches, and unknown liquids appeared from time to time, now this  Doubling the price of a brand new facility is definitely not too much. This is also a comment based on market research. After all, the cinemas that were first renovated are now in use, and even after doubling the movie ticket price, demand still exceeds supply.  It¡¯s not that there are many good movies in the recent movie market, the movies are still the same, but the consumption environment has substantially improved, and the box office revenue of unsightly movies is still quite optimistic, at least higher than before.  Thirty percent, the worse the film, the higher the price increase, some even two or three times higher. Even recently, Uncle Liu organized a small batch of bad films to be put in the bottom of the box, and the cost was recovered.  Uncle Liu did this, and Zou Wenhuai did the same. For the two film libraries with a large backlog of unreleased movies, these previously disgusting things can now recover some of the cost, which is an accident of theater renovation.  Harvest. Of course, Uncle Liu and the others have discussed this matter with Li Mingbao. After all, Li Mingbao is the big boss of United Cinemas, and showing bad movies will damage the reputation of United Cinemas. If the bad movies become large-scale,  At that time, many potential consumers will be scared away. It is not impossible to say that the cost of these bad movies will not be too high, unless it is like "Interstellar Blunt" made by Uncle Liu.  Damn it, the average cost of a bad movie is no more than 50,000 Hong Kong dollars, or 100,000 Hong Kong dollars. This kind of movie is indeed bad enough, beyond the level and realm of the original movie theaters owned by Uncle Liu and others.  Disdainful of screening, even people like Uncle Liu who usually don¡¯t care about reputation have to consider reputation. These things have no value for secondary use, but if they are put in the warehouse to be ballasted, it will always make a difference.  Trouble. Now that the theater chain is not occupied by Uncle Liu and others, they naturally want to make more profits and completely repay the capital. They don't have this idea, but it is not impossible to pay for an extra cup of coffee.  Li Mingbao didn't want to pay attention to the movies because he was also afraid that the brand of United Cinemas would be damaged by these movies, but if he thought about it later, such movies might be able to create more value.  The number of good movies in Hong Kong is not a small number, and the number of bad movies in Hong Kong is not a small number. If all the bad movies are stored in the warehouse and cannot create any value, some small film companies will be completely destroyed.  It's over, maybe there will be growth in the future.  And it is completely impossible to put an end to bad movies.  For example, now that United Cinemas is the only one company in Hong Kong, if they don't give bad movies a chance, there will be a lot of internal pressure. Therefore, it is not okay to let bad movies run rampant, but it is also not okay to make these bad movies completely useless.  No matter how bad a movie is, it can't be completely useless.  After accepting good resources, we cannot throw away bad resources.  Li Mingbao considered that if bad movies could not be circulated at all in the future, there might be some competitors in Hong Kong. Although the Hong Kong film market is now fully supported by United Cinemas, if it cannot satisfy the interests of others, it is natural to  Will be made nauseous by small actions.  Movie theaters have an obligation to digest bad movies.  Rather than pushing out a bad movie completely and making people dissatisfied, it is better to digest it internally and calm down the grievances of a certain group of people.  Thinking about the all-night system in later Internet cafes, Li Mingbao felt that this system could also be extended to the film industry.  The current United Cinemas is the big market for Hong Kong movies.  For a movie that is easy to sell, it is natural to give it a good time slot to earn the maximum profit.  But theater time slots are not good all the time. For example, in the morning and early morning hours from Monday to Friday, usually not many people come to watch movies.  Although Hong Kong has the habit of showing movies at midnight, the midnight shows are only available until about two o'clock in the morning at most. Movies after that usually show some popular things. ???????????????? In the past, during the Shaw Brothers Golden Harvest Golden Princess period, it would have been okay to do this, but now after the merger into United Cinemas, although one company is the only one, it also attracts attention.  Before there was no chutai in the rating system, if the United Cinemas did not scruple about such a movie, who knows when?This leads to the conclusion that when the time comes, the Electrical and Electronics Inspection Bureau will be concerned about it, and the facilitation fee is not a small amount.  (PS: There are a lot of pinyin recently. I am not just trying to make up the number of words. There are really too many keywords. I can¡¯t help it. I hope everyone will understand.)
