Chapter 35 Cannes

Run Run Shaw works at H every morning and returns to Shaw Cinema in Qingshui Bay in the afternoon. After Chen Chong came back from Guangzhou, he copied the rules and found a room on the top floor of Jiayi TV Building and arranged it into a temporary office. Before the TV station on U-day was launched, he came here to work every morning to show his importance.

After filming the advertisement, Chong Chong went straight to the top floor. At the door of the office, he happened to meet Zhou Liang Shuyi. After saying hello, she said: "According to the latest survey statistics, Bruce Lee's "Jingwumen" is slightly ahead of "Star Wars" and has become the most popular video for viewers after the TV station started broadcasting."

"This is good news. If it is Jingwumen, I can save some money." Chen Chong pushed open the office door and asked her to go ahead, saying: "The TV broadcasting rights of Star Wars are not cheap."

"I've seen the quotes. Americans are too greedy. The TV broadcasting rights of "Star Wars" in Hong Kong actually cost $500,000, and they can only be played once."

"This is still the price of friendship after discount." Chen Chong signaled her to sit casually, and then said: "Do you know how much it costs to broadcast "Gone with the Wind" on American TV? $100,000 is an old movie in 1939. MGM can't bear it with these old movies. It's been a huge profit for a movie for more than 40 years."

"Yes." Zhou Liangshuyi sat elegantly on the single sofa, holding the handrail with her left arm, and said, "I had this kind of thought at the beginning. I thought filming was better than stock trading, so I set up a film company with IvIa. However, before I could invest in filming, I encountered the bankruptcy of Jiayi TV and then it was left alone. Now I think about it, it's a pity."

"It may not be a pity." Chen Chong also smiled and said, "The risk of making movies is no lower than buying stocks. It closed down several film companies last year, and SvIvIa's investment vision seems to be unreliable.

"Mr. Chen, aren't you afraid that I will tell her this?" Zhou Liangshuyi smiled and said, "The box office of the two movies she invested in last year was pretty good."

"It's okay to tell her, she is not a businessman." Chen Chong closed the document and looked up and said, "If Mrs. Zhou did it, I think it would be much better than what she did. By the way, has the Hong Kong Governor's Office replied?"

"not yet."

"We are not very good enough, and the Governor of Hong Kong probably won't come." Chen Chong smiled indifferently and said, "Anyway, we send an invitation letter, and it's okay if we don't come. I just watched the program schedule and it started at six o'clock. First, there were congratulations from stars, and then the classic movie was played. After the classic movie, there was a star interview. The first episode was an exclusive interview with the crew of "Die Hard". Is this program ready now?"

"It's done, the lineup of "Die Hard" is luxurious and has a lot of selling points," Zhou Liang Shuyi introduced. "So I divided the interview into two episodes, one is an interview with the director and the starring actor, and the other is an interview with the behind-the-scenes staff. Many people are very interested in the production process of various explosion scenes in the movie. There are also rumors that Yamaguchi Momoe is about to retire, so we specially gave her an interview. She has many movie fans in Hong Kong, and after the show is done, we can sell copyright to Japan's TV stations."

"Your idea is very good." Chen Chong praised and said: "Full interaction between film companies and TV stations and maximize the utilization of resources. Yamaguchi Momoe is very famous and has high pay, so it is necessary to make more use of it."

"Mr. Chen, is she really going to retire?"

"It's true. Japanese women have a tradition of taking care of their husbands and children. She plans to get married, so it's normal for them to retire.

"What a pity. She is so popular now. She retired just 1 year old. It's too early."

"Everyone has their own ambitions." Chen Chong also felt a pity and said, "After the celebrity interview, have you decided to play any movie?"

"We are going to play a family movie, because at nine o'clock, H just finished the TV series and could grab some viewers." Zhou Liangshuyi opened the documents in front of her and looked at them, saying, "Editor Luo suggested that we play "Seventy-Two Tenants" or "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai."

"Lao Luo is not at ease." Chen Chong laughed and said, "He can think of it when using the movie produced by Shaw Brothers to grab HR audiences."

"But I think Editor-in-Chief Luo's opinions are worth referring to." Zhou Liang Shuyi also laughed and said: "The Seventy-Two Tenants" is a classic Cantonese movie. It has been 7 years since 1973. Many viewers have only heard of the name but have not seen it. According to data provided by Galaxy Entertainment, the video tape of "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai" is the most rented 60s film in the past few months."

Chen Chong smiled with satisfaction. The media group he built after working hard for more than a year finally saw the ability to cooperate with each other and support each other.

He first opened a movie station. In addition to having a sufficient film library, the mature editing and editing system and rich text content of "Movie Age" and "First Movie Review" can provide TV station with qualified behind-the-scenes talents and video programs with slight conversion. In addition, the data support of the survey company and videotape rental company, there are no obstacles to the launch of the movie station.

After the movie station was launched, the films produced by Oriental Charm had a promotional window. Not only did they not have to buy advertisements at high prices at H, but they could also use various homemade programs to do free publicity, killing two birds with one stone.

After talking about the TV station with Zhou Liang Shuyi, Chen Chong looked at the time. It was almost noon. So he went home, had lunch at home, and then went to the Oriental Charming Building in Wan Chai.

"It's still comfortable here." Chen Chong leaned on the office chair leisurely and half-satisfied, saying: "Jiayi TV Building is a bit old. After a while, I'll find a good land and rebuild a building, and build a bigger than Shaw Cinema."

"I don't know how many people in Hong Kong are working hard for a 50-square-meter house. If you say you want to build a new building, you will build a new building." Luo Weiming teased him and said, "The God of Wealth is the God of Wealth."

"Who can't let go of the mouth?" Chen Chong laughed at himself and said, "I, the God of Wealth, will soon be in debt. Other God of Wealth carry gold ingots on my back, and I am full of debt."

"That's what you asked for." Luo Weiming said with a smile: "If you have money, don't save it in the bank, buy stocks everywhere to invest. It's unreasonable to lose money."

"Is money spent? It's uncomfortable to spend it in the bank for others to think about it." Chen Chong talked to him for a while to manage his finances and asked, "I have read the latest episode of "The Movie Age". In that article interview with Run Run Shaw, the lines seem to imply that he opposes the hierarchy system?"

"I visited the Sixth Uncle in person." Luo Weiming said with a cigarette in his arms: "Of course he opposes grading. Shaw Brothers now has two magic weapons, one is a romantic film and the other is a kung fu film. If the Legislative Council refers to the standards for the grading system in the United States, Shaw Brothers' two magic weapons are almost all above p13, which will lose a lot of audiences."

After chatting with Luo Weiming for a while, the phone rang, Qiu Siyuhui reported: "Mr. Chen, Manager Jiang is here."

"Please come in."

As soon as Jiang Zhiqiang entered the door, he apologized and said, "Mr. Chen, I'm sorry, there's something going on at home, I've been delayed.

"It's okay." Chen Chong motioned for him to sit down and asked, "It doesn't matter, right?"

"It doesn't matter, a private matter."

Chen Chong said oh, stopped asking, and said, "That's it
