The next day, Xiangjiang media reported on this year's Academy Awards in a large amount.

Lin Zixuan roughly flipped through the newspaper while having breakfast, but didn't care much.

Everyone has different positions, with praise and criticism, and it is always the case. It is difficult to adjust everyone and no one can achieve perfection.

If it were the past, he might have looked at it carefully and found novel views, such as the balance between business and art, the contradiction between capital and film, etc.

Lin Zixuan doesn't do that now. It's not that he understands everything, but that he realizes that many things are uncontrollable in themselves, and it's good to be so contradictory.

This world is not black or white, but is constantly changing and moving. The views I insist on today may be overturned in a few years, so we must keep pace with the times.

He will have an important event and gather with the bigwigs of the Xiangjiang Film Company.

The boss of Xiangjiang usually talks about things, including a tea restaurant and a golf course. The grades of these two are different, and the guests are also different.

People in Xiangjiang like to drink morning tea, and those who are often entertaining familiar guests in tea restaurants.

Lin Zixuan does not belong to this category. He made an appointment with these people on a golf course located in Deep Water Bay.

Jiang Zhiqiang drove to the hotel to pick up Lin Zixuan, who was the introducer.

"Mr. Lin, Warner people are interested in purchasing the remake rights of the "Infernal Affairs" series of movies in North America. Their bid is about one million US dollars. What do you think?" Jiang Zhiqiang asked in the car.

Major Hollywood film companies have offices in Xiangjiang, and Jiang Zhiqiang's theaters mainly release Hollywood films, and they are very familiar with those people.

Due to internal strife in Tianmu Company, Lin Zixuan handed over the last part of "Infernal Affairs" to Jiang Zhiqiang's company for the production and distribution in Xiangjiang. Jiang Zhiqiang paid attention to the Hollywood company's reaction.

The influence of "Infernal Affairs" in Asia has gradually emerged, and this type of undercover film of police and gangsters has attracted the attention of many international movie buyers.

Although it is an Eastern story, it can happen in any country.

Police, gang, good people, bad people...

A popular subject has no cultural barrier. Westerners may not understand the emotional expression and inner struggle of Easterners, but I believe they can understand this story.

Especially when shooting, I borrowed from Hollywood gang movies.

"They just want to buy the right to remake? Do they have no plans to co-production?" Lin Zixuan asked.

"It shouldn't be. They will find directors and actors themselves, and the script will definitely be modified. The Hollywood set, you know, is different from the situation here." Jiang Zhiqiang responded.

Jiang Zhiqiang is familiar with the operating model of Hollywood, and it is precisely because of his familiarity that he said so.

Hollywood film companies will not cooperate with the original producer just because of the remake of this film.

Taking "Infernal Affairs" as an example, Haomeng Company invested less than five million US dollars.

If it is a remake of Hollywood film companies, the investment should be more than 50 million US dollars, and Hollywood big stars are invited to join and create a Hollywood-style commercial action blockbuster.

From the perspective of investment and returns, they would rather pay a high price to buy the remake rights.

"Wait, let's talk about it after the second part is released." Lin Zixuan said.

Lin Zixuan wants to invest in Hollywood movies in this way. But think about it, even if the cooperation is reached, Haomeng Company may not have much say.

He should put it aside first. If it really doesn't work, he will sell the remake right, so he is not in a hurry.

The car came to the golf course club in Deep Water Bay, which is surrounded by the settlement of wealthy people in Hong Kong. It is far from the downtown area of ​​Hong Kong Island. The scenery is beautiful and there is less noise.

Jiang Zhiqiang parked the car, took out the golf club he brought, and walked in with Lin Zixuan.

The court is fully equipped with a restaurant, locker room, reading room and tarmac.

Lin Zixuan learned to play golf, but he didn't spend much energy and was not proficient. This time he came here to meet, exchange and discuss specific matters later.

The people of Xiangjiang are used to Western life, and the British have left a deep mark here.

They believed that Western life represented civilization, and playing golf was an aristocratic sport. This phenomenon also occurred in the mainland, and Westernization became a trend.

After playing golf, several people sat together and chatted.

Jiang Zhiqiang controlled the rhythm of the topic in a timely manner and would not neglect Lin Zixuan.

Everyone talked about "The Great Adventure of Xiaoxue" from "Infernal Affairs". Lin Zixuan heard that they not only wanted to invest in "The Great Adventure of Infernal Affairs", but also had the idea of ​​investing in "The Great Adventure of Xiaoxue".

"Xiaoxue's Big Adventure" has a box office of over 700 million US dollars worldwide, which is jealous.

Not much money really comes to Haomeng Company. It removes the theater's account sharing and other investors' share, as well as various promotional issuance fees and repays bank loans.

Good Dream Company can only get about 40 million US dollars, equivalent to 350 million RMB.

For the film companies in Xiangjiang, this kind of return on investment is already very high, not to mention that this is a series of movies, and investment will definitely not lose money.

They just want to make money, and the name of their company appears at the end of the movie.

In their opinion, it is a kind of honor to be able to leave the company's mark on such a popular movie.

Lin Zixuan thought about it a little and agreed. Anyway, he added a few more lines of words to the subtitles, which would have no impact. As for the investment amount and subsequent contracts, he could discuss it slowly.

With the joining of these people, Haomeng Company's business in Xiangjiang can be successfully launched.

The release of "Xiaoxue's Big Adventure" in Xiangjiang will be more convenient, which is a kind of exchange of interests.

Lin Zixuan proposed to buy the online broadcast rights of Xiangjiang's old movies in the mainland, and these bigwigs in the Xiangjiang film industry agreed happily.

They feel that the online broadcasting rights in the mainland have little to do with them, and they cannot develop in the mainland, let alone what is broadcast on the Internet.

Everyone reached an agreement and the atmosphere was harmonious.

Through this contact, Lin Zixuan found that the Xiangjiang filmmakers had lost their enterprising spirit and only wanted to be the king of their own territory and no longer had the awareness of pioneering.

Thinking back then, in the 1980s, Xiangjiang Film dominated Southeast Asia.

The bigwigs of that generation of Xiangjiang Film Company even planned to enter the United States and compete with Hollywood movies. Now they are worse than each generation.

Apart from pretending and maintaining the current situation, they have no long-term plans.

At this point, the mainland's film industry is different. The mainland is on the road of commercialization, cooperating with Xiangjiang, Europe, and Hollywood.

Dare to try, dare to take risks, and not be afraid of failure. Perhaps it is not mature enough, but it has vigorous vitality.

Back at the hotel, Lin Zixuan was about to leave Xiangjiang and go to Huacheng. He wanted to meet Chen Changle.r
