Chapter 377 Chapter 0376 [Me! The Great Liberator of Hong Kong Cinema! 】

This move of Lei Juekun startled both Cao Dahua and Chen Baozhu.

"What happened?"

They looked at Shi Zhijian together again, with a look of suspicion: "What did he show Boss Lei?"

Slap!

Lei Juekun closed the document in his hand, then looked up at Shi Zhijian.

Shi Zhijian's waist was straight, his eyes were full of energy, and he looked at him at the same level, with a calm and composed expression on his face, as if everything was in his calculations.

This made Lei Juekun couldn't help but nodded, this young man is not simple.

Cao Dahua has a different opinion. Shi Zhijian's posture seems a little too arrogant to him. Young people should look like young people, be respectful and humble.

Chen Baozhu had a different view. In her eyes, Shi Zhijian was more like an outstanding swordsman, not as timid as the young people today, but unstoppable.

After all, Lei Juekun is a businessman who has experienced turbulence. When he saw Shi Zhijian's attitude, he knew that it would be impossible for him to use his aura to crush the opponent. negotiate with.

Lei Juekun also encountered this kind of situation in the past, but he laughed it off. He has no money, confidence, and qualifications. What qualifications do you have to negotiate with me on an equal footing? But now he had to treat it seriously, because the qualification Shi Zhijian relied on was the proposal he had read just now.

The content in the planning book was simply shocking, which directly made Lei Juekun turn pale with shock.

In addition, Lei Juekun found that many contents in this plan were reserved, and some key points were also vague. Obviously, this was intentionally made by Shi Zhijian and left behind.

It can be said that the proposal that Shi Zhijian handed over was like the "Nine Yin Manual" in martial arts novels. It was not only difficult to understand, but also worth tens of thousands of gold, which made Lei Juekun feel uncomfortable like a cat scratching his heart.

Lei Juekun sorted out his emotions, then reached out and pressed the internal phone on the desk, and called the secretary at the front desk: "Miss Feng, come in for a cup of coffee!"

After a while, crunch.

The office door opened.

Miss Feng didn't come in, but the hunk Chen Huimin came in, holding a cup of milk tea in his hand, and said in a firm tone, "I don't have coffee, do you want milk tea?"

"Uh, who are you?" Lei Juekun wondered.

"I'm sorry, Boss Lei, he's my bodyguard, a rough man who doesn't know how to be polite!" Shi Zhijian smiled, and pointed to the tea table in front of him, "Put the milk tea here!"

Chen Huimin nodded, put down the milk tea, and bowed to leave.

Lei Juekun was still pointing at Chen Huimin and opened his mouth wide: "This, what's going on?"

Shi Zhijian said: "Miss Feng is tired, let him take over temporarily."

No matter how stupid Lei Juekun was, he could hear that something happened outside, but when he thought about Shi Zhijian's identity, he knew that there should be no big problem, so he sighed and said: "Mr. !"

Cao Dahua and Chen Baozhu were confused, looked at Shi Zhijian, and wondered what he did to Miss Feng?

Shi Zhijian was unwilling to waste time, "Boss Lei, you have read my proposal, what do you think?"

For the first time, Lei Juekun felt a little bit of relief. The young man really couldn't hold his breath.

But he forgot how uncomfortable he was like a cat scratching his heart just now.

"Ahem, I read your proposal, and my first impression is——your handwriting sucks."

"Pfft!" Chen Baozhu couldn't help laughing again, and glanced at Shi Zhijian with her beautiful eyes, wondering how bad Shi Zhijian's pen writing could be.

Shi Zhijian was a little embarrassed, he didn't expect Boss Lei to be so unscrupulous, but it was clear that Lei Juekun did it on purpose, wanting to hit his morale with a slanted sword.

"Your handwriting is so bad that I have to read and read it hard, and finally I can see a little way. What do you mean by breaking the system of endowment?"

When Lei Juekun asked such a question, not only Cao Dahua became curious, but even Chen Baozhu, a beautiful woman, became curious and looked at Shi Zhijian together.

You must know that the "movie subsidy system" has been implemented in the Hong Kong film industry for a long time. In order to make money, many movie theaters have devised such a trick to squeeze wool.

To put it bluntly, as a producer, if you shoot a movie and want it to be shown in a movie theater, you have to pay a monthly subscription according to the rules of the movie theater.

No matter how much your movie attendance rate is this month, whether you make money or not, or even lose your underwear, you must pay the theater a certain amount of cover fee on time.

In this way, regardless of whether the movie is good or bad, no one who operates a movie theater can lose money. On the contrary, the producers who make movies are likely to lose money and jump off the building.

Especially after Shaw Brothers dominated Xiangjiang, in order to protect Shaw Brothers' dominance in the film industry, the "subsidy system" became even more popular.

Because the "subsidy system" is like a chain, strung around the necks of those small and medium-sized film companies.

For a giant company like Shaw Brothers, the guarantee system is nothing, not to mention that Shaw Brothers has its own theater chain, so no matter how bad the movie is, they can't pay much.

But those small and medium-sized film companies are miserable. It costs a lot of money to make a film, and then pay a certain amount of cover fee after the release. If the film does not sell well, their only way out is to jump into the sea.

In the previous life, this torturous subsidy system severely restricted the development of Hong Kong films. Many independent filmmakers could not release their films, and many small and medium-sized film companies closed down without development prospects. It was not until 1980 that Lei Juekun established Jin After the princess, she took the lead in breaking this old system, which opened the shackles and saved Hong Kong filmmakers.

In a sense, Lei Juekun is the great liberator of Hong Kong movies.

It's just that now Shi Zhijian has shamelessly copied Boss Lei's great career, and is shamelessly selling it in front of him!

Lei Juekun narrowed his eyes, once again pondering whether Shi Zhijian's breaking the endowment system is good or bad.

For some reason, there was an inexplicable impulse deep in his heart, as if he should be the one who smashed the door with a sledgehammer!

"Ahem, I'm sorry, Mr. Shi, let me, an outsider, say something, I have also worked in theaters. If you break the bottom line like this, how will the theater business do in the future? What if the quality of the released movies is too poor, no From the looks of it, wouldn’t the cinema pay for death?”

Cao Dahua couldn't hold back anymore, he had never heard of such a ground-breaking plan of "breaking the endowment system".

Lei Juekun felt that Cao Dahua asked a very good question, so he didn't need to open his mouth, so he looked at Shi Zhijian to see what he had to say.

"That's simple," Shi Zhijian said with a smile, "If the movie is not good, then it can be withdrawn directly, or it can be arranged according to the attendance rate!"

"Uh, films are scheduled according to attendance?" It was the first time Lei Juekun and others heard such a new vocabulary.

Next, Shi Zhijian talked to them about how to break the package system, and how to use the attendance rate to arrange films. If the attendance rate is high, the films will be arranged in more locations, and if the attendance rate is poor, they will be screened for a few days and then withdrawn.

In order to maintain the operating costs of theaters, how to negotiate with those producers to increase the share ratio.

Replace the bottom cover fee with an increase in the share ratio, so that the two parties can interact more actively and effectively.

In addition, why sell soda, instant noodles, and popcorn when selling movie tickets, and divide the large movie theater into small units, so that multiple movies can be shown, and the movies are classified into categories, comedy movies, action movies, and A room can be used by itself for side-balling salty wet movies and more.

Shi Zhijian talked eloquently, these were common tricks in the movie theater in the previous life, but to Lei Juekun and others' ears, they were shocking and fresh.

I just feel that every word that comes out of Shi Zhijian's mouth is so incredible and so intriguing.

Chen Baozhu is a filmmaker and has never done a theater business. Even so, she can tell that if all the things Shi Zhijian mentioned are realized, then the entire Hong Kong movie will undergo earth-shaking changes!

One person can change a film world!

terrible!
