July in Hong Kong can be described as a scorching summer. The weather in this place has never been very cold. Even in winter, a person with physical fitness like Li Mingbao can spend the winter wearing a shirt. All the buildings have their air conditioners turned on at full power to try to lower the temperature in the room. A trace. But even if the air conditioner is turned on at full power, in the TVB building, the hustle and bustle inside still lets the outside temperature in, and it has no cooling effect at all. Recently, film companies throughout East Asia have become very restless. This restlessness all comes from a new celebrity plan proposed by Hong Kong, and the benefits this plan has brought to everyone have made everyone restless. Come down. As the instigator, Li Mingbao has recently not only had to work hard for his own financing in mainland China, but also worked hard for the new film system in East Asia. It can be said to be extremely tiring. The novelty of Li Mingbao's star project is undeniable, and the profit gains are also something that all large film companies in East Asia cannot ignore. Therefore, after such a plan was proposed, it immediately attracted the attention of many film companies. Even in areas like Wanwan where local film companies are not very strong, they paid enough attention to Li Mingbao's proposal. No one in the world can give up this interest, let alone other regions. For example, in Japan, they can be said to be the most receptive region to plans for celebrities like Li Mingbao. For Japan, which has long been influenced by things like famous brands, it is clear how tempting the benefits would be if famous stars also developed using the same development ideas as famous brands. So the time jumped to July, after Uncle Liu and others worked together with Li Mingbao, Hong Kong, like all the high-end film companies in East Asia, sent out their own invitations. Even those film companies that were not sent invitations were unwilling to give up this opportunity and sent out teams they believed to be capable to participate in this plan. Their appetites were not very big and they had not thought about it. To swallow up the share of first-rate or above celebrities, their greatest wish is only to own the share of some third-rate celebrities or local second-rate celebrities. But even such a small wish may not be able to be realized. After all, the benefits here are amazing. Although generally speaking, whether they are third-rate celebrities or first-rate celebrities, their actual influence is only maintained at It is not that easy to expand your influence locally. But even if it is the local market share, the large local film companies may not be willing to let it go. They know very well that if this plan succeeds, then in the future, to the outside world, things that affect the strength of a film company will no longer matter. It's not the movie itself, but the movie stars who are being hyped up. It is because of this that those large film companies do not want to let go of even third-rate celebrities. Only when they have them all can they be considered successful. As for the small and medium-sized film companies below, their interests are Why do the major film companies care? Although third-rate celebrities are not a profitable business according to actual rules, and sometimes even part of the funds are repaid, the film companies are not willing to let it go. No matter how uneconomical a third-rate celebrity is, isn't he still a celebrity? Compared with those who are not even qualified to be selected as celebrities, third-rate celebrities are still talents. What's more, the celebrity quotas above are actually selected from third-rate celebrities. The more third-rate celebrities there are, the greater the chance that your company will produce higher-level celebrities. In such a highly competitive industry, even if it is useless, there is still an opportunity to create value. If it weren't for the fact that the small and medium-sized film companies have too many people and their overall strength is relatively good, then those small and medium-sized film companies would not have such an opportunity even if they wanted to send representatives. Although such an opportunity is not official, it is more or less acquiesced. In the industry, only those who are completely unmotivated will not plan to send someone over, otherwise they will not let go of such an opportunity. Thanks to Li Mingbao's appeal, film industry personnel from many countries have come to Hong Kong. This has allowed other industries in Hong Kong to benefit during this period, especially industries such as hotels, which have received even more benefits. . In return, the hotel operators also began to receive these outsiders. "Uncle Six, are there too many people? I originally thought that Uncle Six would have enough reception space, but I didn't expect that everyone would be so enthusiastic about this matter. Now even Uncle Six, It can't accommodate so many people, and it even affects the normal operation of the wireless. It seems that our preparations are not sufficient. Also, I think we may need to invest in a special reception hotel orTherefore, otherwise, if we continue to rush like this in the future, it will appear that our hardware equipment is very backward. "Li Mingbao said with some worry in Uncle Six's office. "I didn't expect everyone's enthusiasm would be so great. I originally said that we would invite film companies with capital of more than 10 million Hong Kong dollars to come over. Even if it is almost the same, . But I didn't expect that small and medium-sized film companies would also be so interested in this plan. As a result, this number of people is far beyond the limit. We can't drive these people away, so we can only make do with it for now. Anyway, everyone is not here for enjoyment. Real benefits are fundamental. Otherwise, these people will not be so enthusiastic. It's a bit wasteful to build something like a hotel. The land price in Hong Kong is not what it was a few years ago. The land price in Hong Kong has increased a lot recently. To invest in such a place, the cost is relatively high. It's better to just do it this way. Just save some money, it's not a big deal. "On this issue, Uncle Six began to be stingy again. "Uncle Six, this is not possible. We must have office spaces such as industry conferences in Hong Kong. After all, this thing is related to the celebrity system. The selection of famous stars is not an issue that can be concluded in one selection. To ensure the fairness of this system, it must be both up and down, and there must be a need for mobility. Otherwise, such a system will That is to say, it is relatively accurate in the first one or two years, but then it becomes unfair. In this way, it will also become confusing when others bid. Therefore, this kind of selection work must be a long-term effective system, which requires professional personnel to work for a long time, rather than being able to decide at once. Have a fixed office space. This is completely different from the selection of awards such as the Hong Kong Film Awards. If we save money on this, then maybe others will see the opportunity in this and create an office space elsewhere. In that case, we in Hong Kong Isn¡¯t it true that the name here is not correct and the words are not consistent? "Li Mingbao was really speechless about Uncle Six's stinginess. Uncle Six actually didn't have a clear idea of ??what should be saved and what should not be saved. It would be a bad thing if this office space was saved. Famous Star The system is originally a money-making project, and it is a long-term and large-scale money-making project. Such a project cannot be overemphasized. Building an office building is what the question should do. Now Uncle Liu. But trying to save capital on this is just nonsense. In fact, it is also a troublesome thing for Li Mingbao to get this celebrity system, and there are still some technical flaws. In the Internet age, the fairness of this system will receive the strongest support. In the Internet age, information is the most complete. By then, let alone evaluation once a year or half a year, evaluation at any time will be nothing to the Internet age. It¡¯s a fantasy story. At that time, a celebrity¡¯s rating might be affected by a single word or a wrong trip. But now it is possible for a small number of staff to do a good job. Without such technical conditions, it would be impossible for Li Mingbao to evaluate this system from time to time. In other words, he could only conduct evaluations every six months or once a year to do a good job. There are also a lot of people needed, and there is no way to save manpower. Under such circumstances, saving an external agency is definitely the stupidest decision. "Li Sheng, you are right, but it costs money. Recently, our profits from Wireless and Shaw Brothers have not been much. Zou Wenhuai's Jiahe, there are still many shareholders behind it who need dividends. As for Xinyi City, Lei Juekun and his team have not been getting along well recently. If they want to spend money, they are not like Li Sheng. Easy. "Uncle Six also understands that this is something that must be done, but the real problem is not so easy to get rid of. Li Mingbao's ideas and creativity are first-rate in Hong Kong. Even internationally, Li Mingbao's ability is It can be considered outstanding. But ability and ideas and creativity are one thing, and practical problems are another matter. In reality, no matter how big and ambitious you are, it doesn't make any sense. Li Mingbao¡¯s proposal hits exactly this weakness. Li Mingbao also knows that Uncle Liu¡¯s words are not lies. After all, Uncle Liu¡¯s profitability is not at the same level as his own. There is no comparison between Li Mingbao and Li Mingbao who have income in many areas. Even if Li Mingbao does not make a penny in Hong Kong and loses 100 million Hong Kong dollars every year, it is still not a problem for Li Mingbao. But six. But uncle and the others can't do it. Let alone a loss of 100 million, even if their income and expenses are equal in any year, for six years??For a boss like them, this is still an uncomfortable outcome.
