Regarding Uncle Liu's and the others' annoyance, Li Mingbao felt that this thing was actually a knowledge barrier. From the very beginning, Uncle Liu and the others believed that the Hong Kong plan was originally supported by the Hong Kong side, so all the hard work should actually be done by the Hong Kong side, which would be in line with everyone's benefits. The so-called "more work, more reward" is actually the truth. But the problem is that the Circulation Port is fundamentally different from the plans that Uncle Liu and the others have contacted before. If there is something similar, Li Mingbao may be able to attribute the Circulation Port plan to the type of investment promotion. Foreigners came to China to build factories and then produced various types of products. If these products were sold, they would indeed increase local tax revenue. And at the beginning, the government was also responsible for solving problems in the market. The current situation in Hong Kong is similar. The distribution port is equivalent to a distribution center for exchanging what is needed. However, due to the strength of Hong Kong films, the private goods are relatively heavy. There are fewer films sold from other places and more of our own films. To put it simply, our own interests take up the majority, so Hong Kong is also very active in exploring the market. But the Hong Kong Distribution Plan is, after all, a distribution center plan. Although there are many private goods in Hong Kong, in essence, there is no difference between Hong Kong movies and those from other countries. The market is not just about Hong Kong movies. Yes, movies from other places also need such a market. In essence, Hong Kong movies and other local movies are on the same starting line. But since Hong Kong movies accounted for the majority, Uncle Liu and the others unknowingly ignored this essence and thought of Hong Kong movies opening up other people's markets. Hong Kong made a lot of money, but they didn't expect that the market would really open up. , Hong Kong movies are indeed eating meat, don¡¯t film companies in other places eat soup? Because they ignored the essence, Uncle Liu and the others did not think of this fact. As a result, the only way to open the market now is to rely on Hong Kong to do it alone and let others take advantage. Uncle Liu and the others are all smart people, so after Li Mingbao showed this essential thing, everyone finally understood it, so Zou Wenhuai said helplessly at this time: "Li Sheng still understands it, if not for Li Sheng Putting this issue forward, we have not thought about this problem. It is really embarrassing to work for others for nothing. The plan we made before was fundamentally wrong. We had known it would be like this. The port has been officially completed in East Asia a long time ago, so why wait until now? " "It is not too late to understand that as long as this problem is solved, our circulation port can be regarded as a real success. All the details can be slowly adjusted. Now as long as we can capture the entire East Asian market, we will be considered complete. Unfortunately, the mainland market is not complete yet. If we can bring the mainland market over, we will make a lot of money. , even more." Li Mingbao said with some regret at this time. "Mainland market? Li Sheng, you are really free. How much money can you make on the mainland? Regardless of the large number of people in the mainland, the income from movies there is not even that of Taiwan, let alone the market in Japan. There were so many people at that time, and there was no money to be made." Lei Juekun interrupted at this time. "There is no money in the mainland market? Are you kidding me? Does Boss Lei know about the movie Shaolin Temple? Do you know how much box office this movie has in the mainland?" Hearing Lei Juekun's words, Li Mingbao was not happy. Hong Kong There has always been a prejudice against the mainland here, but Li Mingbao thought it was the group of people below, and these people should have good vision, but he didn't expect that Lei Juekun actually had the same idea, so Li Mingbao couldn't help but beat him . Hearing Li Mingbao¡¯s words, Lei Juekun was stunned. He really didn¡¯t know how much box office the Shaolin Temple movie had in mainland China. In recent years, not many people in Hong Kong know about the affairs on the mainland. Even big bosses like Lei Juekun don't know much about the situation on the mainland. Although Hong Kong also has newspapers from the mainland, most of those newspapers are about propaganda policies and the like. There is not much specific data like this. There is no Internet in these days, so even some popular knowledge, like People like Lei Juekun don't know much about it, so even for movies like Shaolin Temple that have achieved good box office in Hong Kong, Lei Juekun still doesn't know the market in mainland China. "I really don't know about this. Do you, Li Sheng, know?" In front of Li Mingbao, Lei Juekun's posture was very low, so his tone was relatively modest. "I really know this. The box office of the movie Shaolin Temple in mainland China was more than 160 million yuan, and such a box office was created with a ticket price of 10 cents. And this 100 million yuan The box office of more than 60 million yuan is not all. You also know that there areMovie box office statistics are relatively backward, and after a movie is released, it is not only played in cinemas, but also includes the income in some rural areas, and those income are not included in the box office. So I don¡¯t know what the real box office of this movie will be, but the box office in the cinema alone can have so much, let alone the countryside where there are more people. How much profit can it create? Astronomical figures. So Boss Lei, you must not look down on the mainland¡¯s box office. Their movie revenue is even more exaggerated than ours in Hong Kong and Taiwan. It's just that this type of news has not been reported to the outside world in mainland China, so it is normal for people not to know about it. But the lack of reports does not mean that it does not exist. We are all smart people. To put it bluntly, movies rely on the population base to support the box office. There are one billion people in mainland China. Even if only 100 million people go to the movies, the ticket price of each movie is only 10 cents, and the revenue of that movie is at least tens of millions of yuan. What's more, there are not many entertainment options in the mainland, so a truly good movie will definitely not only have a market of 100 million people. Even a 10-cent ticket can be sold for a lot. Filming in the mainland, At this stage, it can only be a matter of making more or less, without worrying about losing money. Do you believe that even those movies made by Shaw Brothers that lost money in Hong Kong will make a lot of money when released in mainland China? "Li Mingbao squinted his eyes and explained. "No one knows better than Li Mingbao how good the box office in mainland China is. There can be a place where a movie can sell one billion yuan, let alone Hong Kong and Taiwan. Even if it is a single country in Europe, It is impossible to have such income. If not calculated according to the exchange rate, the mainland film market will be even more impressive than the United States. Even with exchange rate losses, the mainland will become the second largest film market in the world in the future, and even Americans will tolerate it. How can Hong Kong despise a place that can¡¯t stop drooling? Hearing Li Mingbao¡¯s words, not only Boss Lei was surprised, but even Zou Wenhuai was surprised. Only Uncle Liu, who had his own channels in the media, was so surprised. It seems to be a matter of course that no matter how strange things appear on the mainland, they are not unusual for media people like Uncle Liu. ¡°There are really so many? "Zou Wenhuai's breathing was a little rapid at this time. "If you don't believe me, ask Uncle Six. Uncle Six must have his own channels in this regard. Uncle Six should know the data I mentioned. Even if he doesn't know, he should understand it. You can know it at once. "Li Mingbao answered naturally. "At this time, Uncle Six nodded and said: "The market in the mainland cannot be judged by common sense. It is not unusual to have so many box office. It's just that the mainland's movie market, especially In terms of rules, there is a big gap with us in Hong Kong, so no matter how high the box office there is, we can only watch it now, and maybe there will be a chance in the future. As for now, there is no way, even Li Sheng People like this have never put forward their own opinions on this matter in mainland China, let alone people like us. Rather than envying the mainland market, it is better to improve the current circulation port. That is the actual benefit. Things on the mainland will be discussed later when we have the opportunity. Anyway, we are not in a hurry. With the entire East Asian market, the strength of our Hong Kong film industry will also increase rapidly. At a certain stage, there will always be opportunities. " Uncle Liu's words make it clear that the matter is on the mainland and needs to be discussed in the long term. "Then let's talk about the film companies in those regions now. Now that Li Sheng has a better idea, we will wait. Go talk to those companies and take advantage of us Hong Kong people. It is not that easy. "Now that Uncle Six has said this, Zou Wenhuai also put aside some thoughts at this time and talked about practical problems. "Actually, we have a better solution to this problem. Since our current strength cannot be resisted by the film companies in those areas, we might as well raise our conditions. This can also be regarded as a punishment for those ignorant film companies, with rewards and penalties, so that the Hong Kong plan can be implemented. , made more perfect. "Li Mingbao also said at this time. "Punishment? Wouldn't this make them more resistant? I think as long as they agree to the previous conditions, we will have achieved our goal, so why bother spending more time? Besides, other companies may not follow our baton. If we want to punish them, we, the Hong Kong people, have to do our part. That would be a troublesome thing. "Zou Wenhuai didn't quite agree with Li Mingbao's opinion at this time. "Resist? They don't have the capital to resist now. If they really want to destroy everything, I think it would be better. The local interests of those film companies are not arousing jealousy. In the past, it was not so easy for everyone to deal with local snakes like them alone. , but now we have united most of the entire East AsiaThe power of the film industry, wouldn¡¯t it be easy to deal with them? When the time comes, using the local film market in those areas as bait, I don¡¯t believe that the film companies in the distribution port will not be jealous. No one will not be tempted by the benefits of expanding the territory. You know, what we in Hong Kong want is the market, not the film companies. Without those film companies, would there be no market? Choosing more obedient companies will also be of great benefit to us. "Li Mingbao said coldly.
