The year 1982 passed in a gloomy and gloomy situation in Hong Kong, and the year 1983 has arrived. The immigration wave reached a small peak during this period, but the real peak will not be until next year. The main force of immigrants is the middle and upper-income class, the class most afraid of being "communized". Although grassroots citizens are also afraid of having their rice cookers and black-and-white TVs confiscated, they have neither the capital nor the courage to go out, so they can only stay in their hometown and wait anxiously. with subsequent development. Under this environment, Li Xuechu and others¡¯ real estate operation plan went very smoothly. Li Xuechu¡¯s remarks on the future situation really did not have any impact. On the one hand, I am not an official from the north, so people may not believe what I say; on the other hand, the people who listen to my words are financial and real estate giants, and even if they believe them, they will only intensify their efforts to scare others into packing up and leaving, so that they can use more favorable prices. The price accepts real estate that cannot be taken away. No one is a saint who cares about the country and the people. The consciousness of businessmen makes several people unanimously choose the direction that is most beneficial to them. And to reach this position, a few people can only do 'better' than others in this regard. Li Xuechu has no objection, everyone¡¯s interests are the same. "Take it, take it. I'll see if you still have life flowers in more than ten years." The immigrants gnashed their teeth and cursed these vampires in their hearts. The assets they originally bought at the price of gold will now be sold at the price of scrap copper. It would be impossible to replace anyone else. But that's what they really thought, why not run away? Li Xuechu all smiled and accepted that the question of whether there was a flower of life or not did not put any pressure on him. At the same time, he did not forget to continue to lower the price: "I took a huge risk in accepting these assets. Like you said, who knows whether I will spend my life more than ten years later? Your price is too unkind, like the person next door to you But it's not like you have so many demands. It's not easy for us either" "That's not necessarily the case. Didn't you say we want 'one country * two systems'?" This was said with a guilty conscience. Why are you running away if you really believe it? "Do you believe this?" Li Xuechu asked back. Well, I definitely believe it. But doing business "" I was speechless. After grinding for a few minutes, Li Xuechu became impatient. "Since you haven't thought about it yet, Mr. Lu, let's think about it for a few more days. I have other business to discuss, so I'll excuse you first." Li Xuechu stood up to leave. "Ali, how many properties are there for sale?" "There are many properties for sale in Central, Yuen Long, Repulse BayBoss, we don't have enough money." Ali made a timely assist. ¡°Ahem, there¡¯s nothing we can do about it, life is hard for everyone.¡± Li Xuechu sighed. Lu Sheng was dumbfounded. "Hey, hey, don't leave in such a hurry." He quickly grabbed him and said, "Li Sheng. Haha, I didn't say no to what you said. It's easy to negotiate, easy to negotiate!" "Don't worry, Mr. Lu, as long as you pay back I will come back to discuss with you if I have the remaining funds. After all, your location is quite good, and the price as you said is not non-negotiable. Let's talk about it in a few days," Li Xuechu said comfortingly. "You can rest assured that there are ghosts. After passing this village, I don't know if there is a shop like this." After all, the political situation is not very good Mr. Lu lowered his head and thought for a while, then gritted his teeth and lowered the price, which was less than one-third of the original price, and looked over with expectation. "This price is still a bit uneconomical." Li Xuechu seemed to be a little dissatisfied and looked at the nervous and anxious face opposite. "Forget it. That's it. Who said we are friends?" Li Xuechu stretched out his hand: "Is this settled?" "It's settled." Mr. Lu breathed a secret sigh of relief and squeezed out some comparisons. A smile that looks ugly even when you cry. Once the agreement is signed. Li Xuechu got into the car and left with a happy look on his face. Not all people in Xiangjiang are so determined to escape, and more people cannot bear the 'exploitation' of such black-hearted businessmen. I chose to hand over the property to a real estate company for operation and quoted a reserve price. If you can sell it at a higher price, the real estate company will get a commission, so you don't have to worry about the company not being interested. Of course, the price is actually very favorable, but of course they have to wait a little longer, as real estate will still be in a downturn due to the immigration wave for two years. After killing the big ones, you can then look for the small ones. This time, the order cannot be messed up. During this period of time, Li Xuechu has been addicted to the joy of real estate acquisitions. This kind of money is so unskilled. Thinking about my working life in my previous life, comparing the two makes me shed tears. But this period of time is not all good, such as today. "Mr. Li, this is the box office data of the two movies during this period." This is Tang Jingnian, the company's 'old man' who has just taken over the position of Ye Zhiming. The filming speed of commercially oriented films in Xiangjiang is much faster than that in China, even in later generations. However, there are exceptions in the three movies that Oriental DreamWorks invested in some time ago. Postponed oneThe animated films "Spring of the Cowherd" and "You Look Delicious" produced by Yue were produced faster than King Hu's martial arts masterpiece Swordsman, and have been screened some time ago. "Why is the box office so low?" Li Xuechu looked at this box office data and was really speechless. Animated movies do quite well at the box office. During the New Year period, movies that are suitable for all ages will always do well as long as they are not shoddy. Cartoons, a new genre in Hong Kong, have shown considerable acceptance in the market, and film critics have also shown sufficient enthusiasm. "It is a family animation worth watching. I recommend all movie fans to watch it. It is not only for young children, but also for adults. It is highly recommended." Sing Tao Daily commented. "I never thought that as an adult, I would be moved to tears by a cartoon. I almost missed it because of this bad name, but luckily I didn't I plan to watch it again with my wife and children." Ming Pao. "If the story had happened to an Ankylosaurus father and son, we might not have been so moved, because it was a natural love for licking a calf. But this story happened to a cruel and cold-blooded Tyrannosaurus rex, so we saw the most incredible thing. The most touching scene. It turns out that carnivores can also have love! "Oriental Daily. "Generating grace and nurturing grace, the family affection that occurs between different species that are originally hostile I was really moved. Parents with children should really take their children to watch Oriental DreamWorks' first animated film. I guarantee that you will not You will regret it." It has a good reputation and the box office is not low. Indeed, many parents followed the advice and took their children into the theater. After watching it, it was also well received. This dinosaur-themed movie became a star of its time. It quickly exceeded 10 million in box office and has great stamina. There is no problem making money. Many film producers from other places have already taken the initiative to request the introduction of this novel film. What dissatisfied Li Xuechu was another movie. The spring of the cattle herding class has arrived. Well, that's to be expected. Literary films have never done well at the box office in Hong Kong. Movies that have caused a sensation in China, such as Wrong Ride and Mom Love Me Again, have all failed to hit the streets in Hong Kong. This movie had no performance here back then, not to mention there wasn¡¯t even a ¡®familiar face¡¯ in the movie. "Mr. Li, this type of movie never performs well in the market." Manager Tang replied cautiously. As Mr. Ye's successor, he and Li Xuechu did not have such a good personal relationship. They were purely subordinates versus superiors. ¡°In fact, it would be more advantageous to make a co-production with similar themes in the future, which would be more convenient for publicity and have a chance to win awards.¡± Manager Tang suggested. Li Xuechu curled his lips. He was talking about the Academy Awards, which had its first edition last year. As a regional film award, the Academy Awards had a prosperous period. But in later generations, with the decline of Xiangjiang Cinema, it had no sense of existence. It was not as good as the Golden Rooster, which was full of official power, and the Golden Horse, which was more chaotic than the House of Representatives. Although the latter two seem worse than the other two, this is a regional award, and its influence is inherently disadvantageous. "Let's talk about this later, Manager Tang. You can work it out and see if this film can be exhibited at the Cannes Film Festival. Then we will consider showing it in other places. All requests for overseas distribution before participating in the exhibition will be rejected." One of the requirements for participating in the Cannes Film Festival is Having never conducted commercial operations outside the mainland, this spring that requires cattle herding classes has crossed the line. After all, domestic and Xiangjiang are two different markets. But fortunately, people outside the country don¡¯t know the situation inside the country. Maybe you can fish in troubled waters and get through it. ¡°There¡¯s no way anyone would be interested in this kind of movie, right?¡± Tang Jingnian muttered and agreed. This film is not eligible to participate in the three Chinese film festivals of the Golden Horse, Golden Rooster and Golden Statue. The possibility of winning is in Europe. Of course, there are other film festivals. But the influence is too small, so it¡¯s better to wait patiently and wait for the results of Cannes to come out. But can Europe please you? After all, it is not the ¡®dark¡¯ theme favored by foreigners. After all, most of the films that will win awards in Europe in later generations are about the lack of humanity in China. Although the director's original intention may not be this, the award-winning situation has intentionally or unintentionally guided domestic filmmakers in this direction, and they don't care whether it can be released in China. Winning awards is great. It¡¯s sad to think about a good movie, but it¡¯s all gone. "How is the situation of the movie in China?" "The feedback is quite good. Both movies have caused a sensation in the mainland." Manager Tang said quickly: "But the box office cannot be calculated yet." "That's good, this is You should pay more attention to this matter and establish the company's brand name in the country as soon as possible. "At this time, it is impossible to calculate the real box office. Let alone outsiders, the country itself does not know how much the box office of its own movies is. "Okay, here's the thingI will definitely do it. " "That's good. " Tang Jingnian couldn't understand why the boss was so enthusiastic about China. In the eyes of Hong Kong people, the ticket price of domestic movies was so cheap that it was almost free, and there was no market at all. What's more, the boss gave away the movie for free, and he couldn't give back even a dime. No way. Tang Jingnian couldn't understand, and Li Xuechu could guess what he was thinking, but he didn't want to explain more. Taking advantage of the current cultural hunger in the country, the reputation bonus of exporting movies is comparable to the effect of tens of millions of publicity in later generations. Fortunately, this benefit will not be available in future generations. Although I can¡¯t make two cents now, I can¡¯t spend much money. There are a few Xiangjiang companies that have established brands in China, such as Jiahe. The kung fu comedy series and Chen Long are very popular in the country, and Jiahe's signature is also deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. It is a pity that although Jiahe's boss Zou has the courage, he does not show a higher vision than others, and he joined the film industry. He was directly killed by the authorities for being a member of the team that vilified and vilified the North. Later, he made various attempts to show favor in private, and finally pushed Chen Long into the domestic mainstream circle, but the treatment he received in the end was far less good than that of the major Hollywood film companies. . Hollywood¡¯s marketing methods are far beyond those of the grassroots-based Xiangjiang film industry. When Xiangjiang Company was waiting for the North to bow its head, Time Warner, who heard the news, eagerly took the initiative to establish relations with the country and offered close discounts. The free box office share made him the first film company to enter mainstream theaters in the mainland. Schwarzenegger became the first non-local movie star to take the initiative. By the time Hong Kong Company could not afford it, Hollywood had already controlled most of the market. Half of it had to be left to its own people. At this time, Xiangjiang Company had experienced all the ups and downs of dealing with a semi-bureaucratic organization, and finally squeezed in half of it through co-productions. But at this time, Xiangjiang Film was already in decline. After the new millennium, Xiangjiang Film seems to be competing with several major domestic directors. Each of the films they produce is more unbearable than the last, but it has shared the infamy for several famous fifth-generation directors, and their brand names have also been completely destroyed. But you have a backstage and the media won't publicize it too much, but you don't have that good luck (To be continued) PS: I'm back home, I've been off a little for the past two days, but I'll be fine in the future
