Hong Kong Variety Show: I choose Liang Kun, he has a big temper

Chapter 268: An unknown director? What they value is the IP

After settling the matter of the Haojiang Casino, Chen Wen immediately called Qiu Gangao.

The news that Zhang Shihao had been rescued had already reached his ears.

The operating rights of the Macau Casino were also finalized.

And now, there is only Mr. Huo who has not been dealt with.

But you have to know that from the time this incident happened until now, Qiu Gangao was only responsible for the previous kidnapping link.

The rest of the time I took Mr. Huo swimming in the high seas.

Is that the way it's done?

This was really beyond his expectations!

"No way, Brother Wen!"

"We haven't made any moves here yet, why are you talking about the Haojiang incident?"

"So what are we going to do next?"

Qiu Gangao asked Chen Wen on the other end of the phone with a puzzled look on his face.

That’s right! After dealing with the issue of the Macau Casino, the only thing left is the dispute with the Hong Kong police.

"Your former boss has now become a favorite of the Deputy Commissioner of Police."

"After all, it happened in Hong Kong Island before, and even the Huo family is in Hong Kong Island, so of course we have to go back to Hong Kong Island to deal with it."

"For the rest, I will find someone to cooperate with your actions."

Chen Wen made arrangements in an orderly manner directly with Qiu Gangao on the other end of the phone.

Originally, Qiu Gangao was still dejected because he had not contributed to this operation, but when he heard the detailed information of this key figure, Qiu Gangao immediately became energetic.

That's right! The information Chen Wen just found out was from the commander who led their operation back then.

Today, this commander is a favorite of Deputy Commissioner of Police Li Wenbin.

However, he still retains his previous case handling model, violent law enforcement, and he does it personally.

The most important thing is that he is now the head of the department, so Chen Wen chose to kidnap Mr. Huo in Haojing.

This is done in order to truly confuse the public. Ultimately, it is also aimed at the minister.

Ten minutes later.

Chen Wen’s office finally returned to peace.

Wu Baige and Zhou Runfa then walked in with a worried look on their faces.

"Mr. Chen, we would like to talk to you about the situation of Cinema City."

"In fact, Mr. Zhou and I both believe that "Best Partner" is a good work, and the person who can create this work must be right."

"But now they have all moved to Golden Harvest, so Cinema City..."

Wu Baige spoke to Chen Wen in front of him in a somewhat tentative tone.

There is no doubt that the tone of the speech is one of sympathy for filmmakers.

Although the filming styles of both parties are different, it is undeniable that "Best Partner" is an excellent work.

It was this work that made Hong Kong's films enter the ranks of films with a box office of tens of millions.

Obviously, Wu Baige does not want the New Hongxing Cinema Chain to lose such a driving force.

“‘Best Partner’ is indeed a good work.”

"Otherwise, how could Golden Harvest possibly be interested in these three unknown directors?"

In front of Wu Baige and Zhou Runfa, Chen Wen directly admitted without hesitation that "Best Partner" was a good work.

It can be said that there is a reason why Cinema City was able to survive under the pressure of Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest and still create such high box office.

However, it is Cinema City that has the ability after all, not just a few individuals.

Obviously, Zhou Runfa also understood the profound meaning of these words.

"Mr. Chen, do you mean that Golden Harvest would negotiate with them because of "Best Partner"?"

"Doesn't that mean that Golden Harvest came here just for 'Best Partner'?"

Zhou Runfa said subconsciously.

There is no doubt that while Wu Baige was still confused and couldn't figure it out, Zhou Runfa had already hit the nail on the head.

Golden Harvest was not interested in these talented directors at all.

But it is the IP of the movie "Best Partner".

有了第1部，就可以有第2部、第3部，而且这第2部、第3部绝对会在最大程度上规避风险。

In short, Golden Harvest poached three directors just to have "Best Partner 2" and "Best Partner 3" released at Golden Harvest.

After Zhou Runfa's advice, Wu Baige seemed to understand something.

He suddenly realized, "So, we are going to compete with the second and third parts of "Best Partner"?"

That’s right! At that time, the film market was still dominated by several theater chains competing against each other.

As a rising star, New Hung Hing naturally became the target of the joint confrontation between Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest.

And now, Wong Pak-ming and others have been poached to Golden Harvest.

This means that from now on, the one competing with New Hongxing will be Princess Jin’s previous blockbuster work “Best Partner”.

Moreover, the other party not only controls the Golden Harvest cinema chain, but also has the cooperation of Shaw Brothers.

After hearing Chen Wen's analysis, Wu Baige and Zhou Runfa realized that Chen Wen had already anticipated this.

But in this situation, why did Chen Wen let the three people leave?

Could it be that Chen Wen really wants to compete with "Best Partner 2" produced by Shaw Brothers Golden Harvest?

Thinking of this, even Wu Baige swallowed subconsciously.

That’s right! The movie “A Better Tomorrow” was a big hit at the box office, but he still didn’t have a clear understanding of his own abilities.

To him, it was just luck.

How can you compete with "Best Partner 2" with just this luck?

Not to mention, Golden Harvest and Shaw Brothers already have certain advantages in the theater chain.

All these have added invisible difficulty to this competition.

"Why are you so nervous?"

"I, the one at the helm, am not in a hurry, so why should you two be?"

"Besides, if they can make "Best Partner 2", we can also make "A Better Tomorrow 2". When we compete together, they may not be our opponents."

Chen Wen spoke directly to Zhou Runfa and Wu Baige in front of him with a hint of sarcasm.

Obviously, facing Chen Wen's answer, the expressions on their faces were extremely complicated.
