MTL - Rebirth of the Great Entertainment Empire-v2 Chapter 848 The Savior of Hong Kong Films (End)

…

"Let's talk about the next question."

Hearing Xu Cun's words, Xi Xiangquan stood up and said, "Mr. Xu, as of April 24, they have a total of more than 250 Taiwan-funded Hong Kong films that have not been delivered as scheduled. We ask them to It should be completed as soon as possible.”

On this issue, a group of filmmakers in Xiangjiang also discussed in private, and finally reached a consensus - this is indeed their side of the problem.

therefore--

The people on the Hong Kong side looked at each other, and finally Xiang Huasheng stood up first and said: "Among the Taiwan-funded Hong Kong films that our Chinese stars participated in, there are still five films that have not been delivered on time, and I will urge these five films. It will be completed as soon as possible. As for the losses caused to the investors in Taiwan, I hope everyone can coordinate in private, and I promise to give some compensation."

Huang Baiming then got up and said: "We have seven Taiwan-funded Hong Kong films in Xinyi City that have not been delivered on time. We will also urge these seven films to be completed as soon as possible. As for the losses caused to Taiwanese investors, we will also give a certain amount. compensate."

Chen Rongmei also stood up and said: "There are four new treasures. I promise that these four will be delivered on time within two months, and I will also give you some compensation."

"..."

In the end, even Wang Jiawei stood up and said, "That... I will finish filming "Dong Xie Xi Po" as soon as possible. As for the loss caused to Mr. Cai, I am willing to give up two more points of Taiwanese box office to Mr. Cai. As compensation for Zedong's delay in submitting the film."

People on this side of Xiangjiang stood up and expressed their opinions, which undoubtedly eased the atmosphere on both sides!

Subsequently, a number of filmmakers in Taiwan also expressed their opinions:

Xu Anjin got up and said, "Since you all have sincerity to solve the problem, we are not ignorant people. I, Xu Anjin, said a word here, as long as your sincerity is true and reliable, I will never make it difficult for you!"

Qiu Fusheng then got up and said: "What Lao Xu said is that we are here to solve problems, not to cause trouble for no reason, so I also promise that I will only require reasonable compensation for the few films I invested in. The lion won't open its mouth!"

Cai Songlin got up, then looked at Wang Jiawei and said, "Just one point, you just need to finish filming "Dong Xie Xi Du" as soon as possible."

"..."

Seeing that both parties are doing well on this issue, Xu Cun said: "You can only make money if you are harmonious, okay... Then I will give you a week for this matter. Both of you will negotiate a time limit that you both agree with, and then form a written If anyone breaches the contract again, I will send my team of lawyers to help punish the breaching party unconditionally, and I will also completely ban those filmmakers who have no integrity and who only care about making money and cheating money.”

Xu Cun's words undoubtedly cut off the back road for the group of people who just patted their chests and promised, so that these people can't talk about one thing behind the other, and then comprehensively solve this problem.

Xu Cun added: "Let's talk about the last question, standardize the star's remuneration."

This time, Xu Guanwen was the first to stand up and said, "It is only natural for an artist to get paid for filming. The level of pay is determined by the market. No one has the right to lower the pay of an artist. Only the market has this right!"

Roger Cheng stood up and said, "It's not just you who want to lower the pay of stars, we also have the will, but you only recognize stars and not movies, if a star finds more people, the pay will naturally increase, and it will increase more and more. Gao, so this problem is on your side, not ours, as long as you recognize movies and not stars in the future, the star's salary will naturally drop."

Xiang Huaqiang stood up and said, "Lao Luo is right. If there weren't those big stars, you would also buy our films. Are we going to spend a lot of money to find those big stars for filming?"

A group of film dealers in Taiwan looked at each other, and finally Yang Dengkui stood up and said: "If there are no big names, they can't sell in Taiwan at all. Now everyone is playing the commission method. You are willing to take this risk. We have no opinion, anyway, we have to pay everyone a piece of the compensation."

As soon as Yang Dengkui's words came out, everyone was silent!

This is a dead end - you must know that dark horses rarely appear. Under normal circumstances, if there are no big directors and big names, there will be no box office appeal, and if you want to hire big directors and big names, you have to spend a lot of money. , As a result, the worth of big directors and big coffees will naturally skyrocket.

At this time, everyone looked at Xu Cun, hoping that Xu Cun would come forward to solve this problem.

After taking a look around, Xu Cun said: "The salary of a star can't be suppressed, so-and-so star, let's set him a salary of 2 million, will he be honest and obedient? You really follow the standard of 5 million. Go ask, but another company offers six million, who do you think he will promise to act for?"

After a pause, Xu Cun continued: "If you don't have 30 to 50 million, and you want to gather big names, you can only get a movie that can handle the problem. Therefore, if you want to play a big production, you need to invest more money, it's nothing. It's easy to say, if you don't want to invest more money, then you can honestly find one or two big names to support the facade, match more cheap newcomers, and then put more effort into the movie, you can also get good results, and once The more people who invest in this way, the fewer people are looking for big coffees. The value of many so-called big coffees will naturally drop. As for those big coffees whose value does not drop but rises and keeps making appointments, that is the ability of others. It's worth that price, and no one is qualified to suppress their worth."

Xu Cun's words made the film dealers in Taiwan speechless to refute.

In the end, they can only reluctantly accept this result that is not the result - after all, it is really unrealistic to forcibly reduce the star's salary, and it is meaningless to continue to struggle.

At the same time, there are also some people who are reflecting, "If you invest 20 million, you still have to make such a bad movie with big stars, and you have to lose money if you specify, why don't you try to invest in one or two that Xu Cun said. A movie with a big name supporting the facade may have unexpected gains..."

Ordinarily, things will come to an end here.

but--

Xu Cun took into account that the filmmakers in Xiangjiang suffered a big loss when they changed the way that Taiwan benders buy films by commission. They all respected their own practices at least on the surface, and Xu Cun added: "In view of changing the method of buying films to the commission method, we in Hong Kong may lack the necessary start-up funds, so I personally put out one billion Hong Kong dollars. A 'Film Exhibition Support Fund' will be established to provide financial support to film companies, directors and crews that cooperate with Taiwan."

The owner of this 'Film Exhibition Support Fund' is still Xu Cun. Xu Cun just took out some money and lent it to these Xiangjiang film companies as start-up capital, and he will also charge some fees appropriately. To put it bluntly, this is also an investment. - An investment with little return.

but--

Although this is also a business, it can solve the great difficulties of film companies, directors and crews who have no money to make films.

Therefore, seeing Xu Cun spending another billion to support them to cooperate with Taiwanese film benders, some people who had just slandered Xu Cun all stopped their slander, and instead believed that it was right for Xu Cun to seek justice from Xu Cun, and Xu Cun did have it. The responsibility of the first person in the film industry is the savior of Hong Kong films.
