Can you not be righteous? You can only stare blankly at the loss of tens of millions of production funds for TV series with prehistoric themes. If you fall into this pit, you will not be able to get up. If Li Mingbao hadn't been evil and had sold the copyright at a high price, regardless of whether these guys could make money, before telling the truth, then these guys would have definitely lost money. ¡°How popular Honghuang is now, you will understand if you look at what is being discussed in Hong Kong. Even if they haven't seen the content, most people are thinking about getting the copyright and making money. How do you know how deep the water is? Although the Hong Kong film industry has not yet developed to the point where you can get money from big bosses with the stars' film credits, Li Mingbao's quality assurance has made this possible, especially Yong Sheng, who has just entered the industry. If you need a movie that can create a brand, Honghuang is the most suitable one. If you buy this copyright, you will definitely be taken advantage of. As for whether Li Mingbao dares to cheat them, neither Xiang Huaqiang nor Xiang Huasheng thinks that Li Mingbao really wants to cheat them. After all, Li Mingbao is not a Sanzi, so even if he cheats Yongsheng, he won't cause too much trouble. So this time Li Mingbao told the truth and it was easy to win the favor of the Xiang brothers. When everyone arrived, Li Mingbao led these people into the conference room, and then took the main seat himself. "I won't say much else. We can't afford to waste the time now. United Cinemas has just been integrated, and there are a lot of things that need to be done. When I discussed it with Uncle Liu and the others before, I was the first one to take action. It¡¯s just a matter of decoration. We all know that the situation of these cinemas in Hong Kong is not very good. The screening facilities are old, the decoration is unreasonable, and the viewing comfort is very low. As for what caused these problems, we don¡¯t know now. Let¡¯s discuss it. But we cannot let the United Cinemas continue like this. A new era in the Hong Kong film industry is coming soon. If we are not fully prepared, it will not only affect the ability of the theaters to make money, but also the quality of Hong Kong films. In terms of promotion, we will encounter a lot of troubles. Nowadays, all theater chains in Hong Kong are basically in our hands. Everyone has a film company and they all have to do their job well. First, sharpen your tool. Cinema is a powerful tool for film dissemination. If a good movie wants to be as widely disseminated as possible, the cinema must play its role well. But it is obvious that most of them are in Hong Kong now. Cinemas cannot meet the requirements. Therefore, after establishing the joint cinema chain, the first thing we need to do is to improve the cinemas. This will not only allow the whole of Hong Kong to see the capabilities of our joint cinema chain, but also Let Hong Kong movies have a carrier that can fully exert its power. "So, Li Sheng is planning to renovate? Although you and Uncle Six had discussed it before, we brothers had not entered the industry at that time, so we brothers were responsible for the theater chain. We have paid 50 million, and now it¡¯s time to renovate. We need to discuss how to get the money, right? We can¡¯t treat our brothers and overseas friends as the boss, right?¡± Xiang Huasheng said slowly at this time. arrive. Although Cui Xiaoming on the side did not speak, the look in his eyes showed that he agreed with Xiang Huasheng's words. Li Mingbao had long known that this would happen. After all, decoration costs money. This is common sense. The Xiang brothers who had just been stabbed by Li Mingbao and others had no reason to be stabbed again because of the theater chain. ?????? Usually others pay their travel fees, but now that they have entered the film industry, they have been stabbed by Uncle Li Mingbao and the others, which is not very pleasant to begin with. Now it is even more impossible to pay the renovation fees honestly. They cannot throw away hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars before seeing actual benefits. No matter how strong the financial resources of Xin Ngee Ann are, they are not strong enough to be the leader. "In fact, our theater chain already has this money. Uncle Liu and I did not touch or share the money you invested in before. What is it for? It is for decoration. 100 million Hong Kong dollars, Renovate all the movie theaters in Hong Kong, even if it's a little bit different, it won't be much different, and everyone will share the remaining money equally, so you can't say that one is cheating on the other, right?" Li Mingbao said. "Now the price of decoration is not low. In addition, we need to replace new equipment. How much effect can 100 million Hong Kong dollars play in it? And in decoration, the equipment is the most important, and we in Hong Kong cannot get it ourselves. Good things are only imported. Although Japanese products are cheap, there are too many, and the total price is not too small. Isn¡¯t it wrong to pay so much when you first join the industry? The equipment in Hong Kong¡¯s current cinemas can only be used so so, why bother. Why not upgrade it so quickly? It's better to make money first and then talk about the equipment, so that we can have confidence." Xiang Huasheng said unmoved. "Mr. Xiang, it seems that the equipment of those cinemas in Hong Kong is nowIt seems that there is not much need to start upgrading. But if we don¡¯t upgrade the equipment, how can we increase the price? Maybe everyone thinks that theater chains are a loss-making thing, and they can use them as long as they can. But theater chains are really not profitable, do they have to lose money? I don¡¯t think so. Why don¡¯t Hong Kong cinema chains make money? In fact, the root cause is environmental issues. If the environment is bad, no matter how good the movie is, some people will not enter the cinema. But if the environment is good, it will naturally attract more people. In addition, after modern decoration, every cinema will have at least one more screen and a better environment. We will also make certain adjustments to movie ticket prices. You should know that movie ticket prices in Hong Kong are relatively low compared to many places. No matter how good a movie is, there is no chance of raising the price. In the future, investment in movies will become larger and larger. Although it can make money overseas, if the local box office in Hong Kong can be a little higher, it can also give the overseas market a certain degree of confidence. So don¡¯t think it¡¯s just about renovating theaters, but it¡¯s actually related to everyone¡¯s actual interests. If the theater box office is a hit, isn't it still everyone who makes the money in the end? It is much better to invest money now than to invest money later. The recent market situation of the Hong Kong dollar is not very good. Coupled with the problems of Sino-British negotiations, who knows when the Hong Kong dollars in hand will start to shrink? Rather than letting it depreciate in value, it is better to invest in the project. At least if you invest in this way, there will be actual benefits and you will earn money in the future. Instead of doing nothing in your hands and completely wasting money on the issue of currency value. "Li Mingbao said seriously. "I didn't expect you, Li Sheng, to do research on exchange rates? "Uncle Six, at this time, said haha. "Otherwise, Uncle Six, why do you think I would put the U.S. dollars into Standard Chartered? Instead of converting it directly into Hong Kong dollars? It¡¯s because I don¡¯t have enough confidence in the Hong Kong dollar, so as long as I have the Hong Kong dollars on hand, I will spend them and keep enough. Compared with the instability of the Hong Kong dollar, the US dollar is slightly better. At least it will not be affected by some minor problems. The market is large and the affordability is also large. I have earned my money through hard work, so I can¡¯t just disappear because of the exchange rate, right? Then I still don¡¯t know who got the advantage in the end? I don't like to take advantage of others, and I don't like others to take advantage of me. "Li Mingbao said naturally. After hearing Li Mingbao's explanation, Xiang Huasheng asked cautiously at this time: "Li Sheng, do you really think there will be problems with the Hong Kong dollar? "The Hong Kong dollars in Li Mingbao's hands are only a small part of his assets, so he can easily adjust which party has more funds. As a free port, Hong Kong's exchange rate is much higher than that of the mainland. It's like paradise here. As long as you have money, even a hundred Hong Kong dollars can be exchanged for US dollars by the bank. Unlike what is done in mainland China now, you can only use RMB. Even if you go to the bank, If you have US dollars, you have to apply for them, and you may not be able to get them in the end. Li Mingbao can easily turn around, but Xin Ngee Ann cannot. Xin Ngee Ann is rooted in Hong Kong, and their main source of income is Hong Kong dollars, so the Hong Kong dollar has changed. It may not affect Li Mingbao, but it will definitely affect Xin Ngee'an. Therefore, Xiang Huasheng does not dare to be sloppy at all, not to mention the sixth uncle Zou Wenhuai and others. Among the people sitting there, only Li Mingbao and Cui Xiaoming had the least sense of this matter. ¡°Will there be a problem? Mr. Xiang, are you kidding me? There have been problems for a long time. I don¡¯t believe you, Mr. Xiang, didn¡¯t see the fluctuations in the Hong Kong dollar exchange rate some time ago. Such big fluctuations may not be of much concern to the people below, but for people like you, a fluctuation of 0.1 is a lot of money. Who knows what the final discussion will look like? The Hong Kong dollar is called Hong Kong paper, and I am not the only one who said it. " "Well, it's hard to make money in this world. Hong Kong paper can¡¯t be used in Hong Kong, so how can we get by? If it's like what you said, I think it's better to invest money in theater decoration now. Hong Kong's real estate industry has been in a downturn recently, and workers have no work to do. If it's decoration, it's easy to have manpower. "Xiang Huasheng nodded and said. "I don't plan to use Hong Kong workers. They have a lot of money and are slow to do things. We want to build the reputation of United Cinemas quickly. The first point is to work quickly. , the second point is to save money and save face, then you can pass the test. ¡± ¡°If we don¡¯t use Hong Kong workers, where can we use them?¡± Vietnamese people don¡¯t know how to do this, and they can¡¯t do this either. "Xiang Huaqiang also spoke at this time. "I have already thought about where to use the people. Uncle Liu, you should know about the construction corps on the mainland, right? Their workmanship is good and fast. They usually do big events. Let them decorate the cinema for us, even if they knock down the house.Construction is faster than that of Hong Kong people, and it also saves money. As long as this relationship can be established, it can basically be a one-stop service there, and even the materials can be obtained directly from there, which is cheaper. "Li Mingbao said to Uncle Six at this time.
