Five days later, Shinjuku, Japan.

As soon as Chen Chong walked into the gate of the Hilton Hotel, Zeng Lizhen quickly came up to him. Seeing her appearance, she had been waiting in the hall for a while.

"What's wrong?"

"Mr. Chen, your method won't work." She said with a bitter face: "I asked Zhu Jiading to find more than ten companies, but no one is willing to sponsor it."

"A new business model is definitely not that easy to do." Chen Chong said while walking towards the elevator: "It's really not a family?"

"I am willing to write Xiao Xiami, and Binbing Fashion Company plans to sponsor 100,000 Hong Kong dollars." Zeng Lizhen said: "It's better not to have such a little money."

Binbing Fashion Company is Ye Zhiming's company, which mainly engages in trendy fashion and jeans businesses. He also runs a film company of the same name, which has a lot of connections with Hong Kong Film New Wave.

New Wave movies such as Xiao Fangfang's "Jumping Ash", Yan Hao's "Jia Lifei", Chen Xinjian's "Inside and Outside the Wall" are all released by Binbing Film Company. Ye Zhiming has a sister named Ye Yuqing, who will be a famous Hong Kong porn star in the future, but at this time, she should still be a little loli.

"Ye Zhiming is worthy of being a moviemaker. He has vision and wants to make a big difference with a small fortune." Chen Chong stood in front of the elevator, pressed the upward button, and said, "He is in a difficult situation now. He can take out 100,000 yuan, which is very sincere. His film company is about to go bankrupt, right?"

"I'm still struggling. I heard that I'm looking for someone to raise funds everywhere." Zeng Lizhen said: "It's too difficult to offend Taiwan, offend Jiahe and Lisheng in succession, and want to do a movie business in Hong Kong."

Ye Zhiming initially established a film company just to advertise his fashions. He cooperated with Lisheng Theater and Jiahe Theater to release several dramas, selling them all, and earning a lot. After tasting the sweetness, he spent a lot of money and bought the copyrights of many movies from Taiwan at once, preparing to be greater than one.

It’s okay to just play around, but if you really want to do something big and become a competitor, how could Jiahe continue to cooperate with him? Naturally, he would exclude him. So the two sides disbanded, and Ye Zhiming had too much appetite and had a falling out with Lisheng Cinemas. Lisheng Cinemas, the predecessor of the famous Princess Jin Cinemas, is the third largest theater outside Jiahe and Shaw Brothers.

Like Jiahe, Shaw Brothers is OK to show one or two movies, but don’t even think about it…

Ye Zhiming had no choice but to gamble, rented the "Shuangnan" theater chain of the left-wing film company and screened more than 20 movies. As you can imagine, the Taiwanese side was immediately furious - you, take our movies and go to the left-wing theater chain to release the money from the right, so that the left-wingers can earn money from the right. This is a blatant "investment enemy" behavior and must be banned.

Without the Taiwan market, it is naturally terrible. Not only is the film company going to close, but the parent company Binbian Fashion has also been dragged down. Ye Zhiming is now on the verge of bankruptcy, so it is very rare for Chen Chong to say that he can get 100,000 yuan out.

Ye Zhiming is quite capable. Although this incident eventually broke, he made a comeback later and founded Feitu Records in the 1990s. Those who have experienced the VCD era should still remember that this company produced a large number of NVs and Cara CDs. Later, the company was acquired by Emperor, and Nicholas Tse, Luo Wen and others became Emperor artists because of this.

"There is no other company except Binbian?"

"Coca-Cola Company said that if Mr. Chen, you will play the leading role in person." Zeng Lizhen followed him, walked into the elevator, helped press the number on the top floor, and then said: "They not only provided full sponsorship, but also gave Mr. Chen an additional $5 million in global advertising endorsement fee."

"I didn't expect that I, who is average, is worth so much money." Chen Chong laughed twice in self-deprecatingly and said, "Didn't you go to find a Japanese company?"

"I found it, but the management of Japanese companies is very strict. The branch in Hong Kong does not have the authority to make a decision. I need to apply to the head office. It will take more than a month to go back and forth." Zeng Lizhen was a little anxious and said, "The crew has been on the filming for four or five days, and the heroine has not been completed yet. How can I wait for that long?"

"Isn't the place where you are standing now Japan?" Chen Chong walked out of the elevator, took out the door card, and said, "Go directly to the interested headquarters."

"But I don't know Japanese, I don't know anyone in Tokyo, and I have never advertised..."

"If you don't know, go and know. If you don't know, go and do it." Chen Chong said without saying: "Sister Zhen, you are too brave. You should go to the market more. This is a shopping mall, not a battlefield, and you can't die."

While he was talking, he opened the door of the presidential suite and walked a few steps. He felt something was wrong. When he looked back, he saw Zeng Lizhen standing in the corridor with red eyes and crying loudly.

"Oh, don't cry, don't cry." This is the first time I encountered this kind of thing. Chen Chong was a little at a loss and was stunned for a moment. He had to wave his hand and said, "If you have something to come in, don't stand there. It's so bad that people can see it. I didn't blame you."

When Zeng Lizhen walked into the room, Chen Chong closed the door, asked her to sit down, took a box of tissues for her, and said, "Why are you crying? Don't cry, don't cry, I'm most afraid of women crying."

Fortunately, Zeng Lizhen quickly controlled her emotions. She wiped her tears with a tissue and said, "Mr. Chen, sorry, I'm out of control."

"It's okay, everyone has difficult times." Chen Chong sat opposite her and said, "Looking at how you are, you have suffered a lot of grievances?"

"Little Japan is so hateful." Zeng Lizhen sniffed and said gritting her teeth: "I have bought more than ten air tickets this month, flying around and giving her full sincerity. They bite and didn't let go. Yesterday, they added new conditions and said that they would add Tomokazu Miura to the crew and design a role for him specifically, and would cost $500,000 in filming. At the beginning, I really shouldn't have proposed to come to find Japanese people to act. This is not just spending money to invite people to film. I am fucking trouble for myself and begging my grandparents everywhere..."

After venting for a while, she calmed down and said, "Yamaguchi Momoe doesn't want to go to Hong Kong to film. Her salary for filming in Japan is at most 500,000 US dollars, and she will give us 3 million. This and that conditions are provided. Mr. Chen, why don't we change to film? It's not just her who is famous in Japan."

"No, the more she doesn't want to take pictures, the more she wants her to take pictures." Chen Chong smiled and said, "You tell the agency that you can agree to any conditions, but we also have one."

"What?"

"After filming this drama, Yamaguchi Momoe can't take on any new movies." Shen Chong said: "We want to make sure "Die Hard" is her retirement work."

"Mr. Chen, this..." Zeng Lizhen said with some uncertainty: "You want to buy out Yamaguchi Momoe's acting career?"

"Even if I am rich, I can't beat Japan. How can I buy out her?" Chen Chong laughed. He stood up, walked to the mini bar, picked up a glass, poured a glass of water, handed it to her, and said, "I heard that Yamaguchi Momoe agreed to Miura Tomokazu's proposal. According to the Japanese tradition, if she got married, she would quit the entertainment industry. Since she spent 3 million, she naturally had to make the best use. Her fans were crazy. It was very beneficial to the box office to give "Die Hard" a gimmick of retirement."

"What about Miura Tomokazu?"

"Promise them too." Chen Chong poured himself a glass of water, took a sip, and said indifferently: "Give him a small character, the kind that dies miserable."

"But he wants a pay of 500,000 yuan, which is too high." Zeng Lizhen said holding the cup, "If this happens, the budget will be overspent, and I am unwilling to let him take so much money for no reason."

"It's okay, for your crying, I'll help you once and let the Japanese pay for it themselves." Chen Chong laughed twice, and he took out a business card from his pocket, then picked up the phone next to the sofa, and said, "I'll make a call."

After the phone was connected, Chen Chong first spoke a few words of Japanese and then changed to English. After chatting for a few minutes, he put down the phone and said to Zeng Lizhen: "Okay, tomorrow you take my business card, bring the movie planner, and go to Sony's advertising department."

Zeng Lizhen repeatedly hit a wall in Japan, and her confidence fell to the bottom. Seeing that he was talking casually and contacting a world-class electrical appliance company, he was a little unbelievable and said hesitantly: "Will Sony agree to sponsorship?"

Chen Chong flipped over the business card on his hand, stood it up to show it to her, and said, "Do you know who this person is?

"Akio Morita, Ak-It" Zeng Lizhen had a little difficulty reading the English name on his business card, and then asked: "Who is he?"

"Sister Zhen, you usually have to know more about business information. Those who make movies may not understand movies, but they must not understand business." Shen Chong took back his business card and said, "Akio Morita is the chairman of Sony.

Zeng Lizhen widened her eyes.

"Don't be so surprised." Chen Chong smiled stinkyly, pointed at himself, and said, "I'm honored to notify you that the person sitting in front of you is Sony's largest individual shareholding holder and strategic partner."

That's right, the biggest purpose of Shen Chong's visit to Japan this time is to Sony.

The speculation in gold futures is coming to an end, and it has fallen into more than 300 million US dollars. At this time, the exchange rate of the US dollar against the Japanese yen is l:0. The stock price of Sony's company is only RU0 and the price of yen is above RU0. It can be said that the price is bargain, and it is a good time to rush to buy.

Chen Chong is preparing to build its "Movie Power" laboratory, specializing in the development of new film technologies. Sony has deep technical accumulation and strong R&D capabilities in video and audio. It used to have tam video tape technology, now there is aIkmau, and in the future there will be digital audio-visual products such as CDs, high-definition cameras, etc. These things are all things he dreams of.

In the early RU era, the scientific research capabilities of digital products in the mainland were basically blank. Hong Kong and Taiwan have never made any achievements in scientific research. In the United States, Texas Instruments, which has key digital film technology, is a semi-military company. Shen Chong cannot start, so establishing a cooperative relationship with Sony, which has low stock prices, is the best choice.

It is obviously unlikely to acquire Sony, but if you can own enough shares and become a member of the board of directors, you can easily grasp the R&D trends and certain key technical information. Only by relying on the big tree can your own laboratory develop rapidly.
