"You have some plans for me to be here, don't you?"
Yuan Aijia stood at the door of the cinema, which was a very impressive achievement since she took over the company.
Even the two giants, Golden Harvest and Shaw Brothers, did not have a high-end cinema chain like the Pearl River Cinema back then.
"Well, day by day, the company is about to be acquired by me, so what's yours and mine?"
Wu Changyun held two movie tickets. To be honest, he had no interest in Zhengke Film Company. Zhou Runfa was his top talent, followed by Wu Changyun himself.
The main reason is that Wu Changyun has not had any works released abroad in the past two years.
In 1976, Wu Changyun set his sights on Xian Jinxi. When Xian Jinxi terminated his contract with Changgong Film Company, he poached him to his own company, along with Xu Shaoqiang who took the initiative to invest in him.
With Wu Changyun's current accumulation, he doesn't even look down on the little things left by Zhengke. The three princesses in the family are all actors from Great Wall, not Zhengke.
Therefore, the only condition is that Wu Changyun must take over the Pearl River Cinema Line and the three cinema chains along the line to truly expand the company's cinema chain.
This is the real reason why Wu Changyun invited Yuan Aijia to come.
Of course, if it were that easy, we could just make it clear over the phone.
The two entered the cinema. It is worth mentioning that even the theater staff did not recognize Yuan Aijia, but they were well aware of the recent acquisition of Zhengke Company.
There are even rumors that not only Zhengke, but also Great Wall is likely to be acquired again.
This is of course nonsense. Yuan Aijia seemed unhappy. Zhengke was the first company she ran, and now it has to be sold, which has a big impact on her personally.
"Really? People nowadays only care about the little money in their pockets and their companies, and they want to attract attention."
"Okay."
Wu Changyun helped Yuan Aijia, and it was obvious that Yuan Aijia was a little annoyed by these rumors.
Although the lack of information flow has its advantages, it is not entirely true for Yuan Aijia. For more than two years, she thought she had firmly established herself as the number one leader in Great Wall, but in fact, this was not the case.
The company's business was divided into several parts, and Yuan Aijia had never taken these matters into consideration before.
Until one day, the company's customer service did not recognize her, but instead only talked to her second brother who had stronger business capabilities.
"In our company, all departments are now very united." Yuan Aijia said with a long tail tone.
“It’s just that all the people in charge are not very united with me.”
"Then you are not doing a good job. It will cause disunity." Wu Changyun naturally had no scruples with her.
"What did you say? Give it a try?"
"Give it to me? I don't want it." Wu Changyun said with a smile.
"Mandarin films have been booming in recent years, and you're making Mandarin films, but the box office results aren't great. Haven't you reflected on the problem?"
"Reflection? If you lend me your company's director, I can also have box office success." Yuan Aijia was still a little unconvinced. Although she was in charge of the company's works, there were only so many proposals, and she could only compare them among the many proposals.
Moreover, Yuan Aijia cannot veto, and she is also afraid that the company's director will jump ship.
"I'm talking about the direction of the film industry. You always make art films. You used to target Lu Xun's novels and Dream of the Red Chamber, which was understandable, given that it was during that era. But now you're making things like The Legend of the White-Haired Witch. Isn't that too much of a homogenization?"
Wu Changyun was not actually asking a question. If Yuan Aijia could listen to his advice and completely reshuffle and reorganize the company, perhaps it could still be maintained for a while.
Of course it only lasted for a while because the man came back.
And it was at Wu Siyuan's Siyuan Film Company. Not long ago, Wu Siyuan found me and planned to borrow Huang Zhengli.
Wu Siyuan said to Wu Changyun: "Lend me Huang Zhengli, or you can lend me Xu Shaoqiang. What a coincidence, they are both in your company."
This is not a coincidence, it is a man-made disaster.
When Wu Siyuan was deciding on the candidates, he didn't know that both of them had been accepted by Wu Changyun.
Yuan Aijia listened to Wu Changyun's advice. It's not that she didn't understand the truth, but she just couldn't do it.
First of all, she is not the only one who has the final say in the Great Wall. Forced changes will lead to many people being laid off. She does not have the support of the majority. By then, she will probably be fired before the company's transformation is completed.
"Forget it, I won't try to persuade you anymore. There are always more solutions than problems."
"By the way, how much are you going to pay to buy back my hard work?" Yuan Aijia asked with a well-behaved look.
"Three million."
Wu Changyun replied.
"Okay, okay, let's go and sign the contract."
When Yuan Aijia heard this, she smiled happily and didn't even plan to watch the movie. She wanted to drag Wu Changyun to sign the contract.
“There are also three theater chains on the Pearl River Line here.”
"Are you crazy? Just forget it, Mingqiang."
Yuan Aijia's face darkened and he made a 180-degree turn.
"You and I both know that Zheng Ke is worthless. I still want to help you take over those actors and staff. If it can really create benefits for you, will you agree to my request?"
"Oh, am I so unbearable in your eyes?" Yuan Aijia asked in a somewhat unhappy tone.
"Okay, stop playing the emotional card. Why are you pretending like that?" Wu Changyun grabbed Yuan Aijia's delicate facial features and rubbed them hard.
"Okay, okay, I know I was wrong."
"But you are too stingy. You want to swallow up my Pearl River Line, but I'm afraid you don't have the generosity." Yuan Aijia looked Wu Changyun up and down. Although he made some money in the past two years, it was not enough to compete with the real first-line film production companies.
Shaw Brothers' annual dividend from TVB's shares can crush Wu Changyun. Although Great Wall is not as prosperous as Shaw Brothers, it is also of epoch-making significance and has no worries about investors and funding sources.
"I'll give you another 1.7 million, or I'll give you 3% of Qiji Film Company."
“Three percentage points?”
Yuan Aijia fiddled with her fingers and stretched out three of them. She knew that Wu Changyun would not say anything childish.
Three percentage points for 1.7 million. Yuan Aijia knew that making movies could make money, but she still underestimated Wu Changyun.
As long as Wu Changyun wants, he can achieve a box office of 10 million yuan a year, and even more in the future.
"Well? Have you thought it through?"
"Let me think about it again. This is not a small matter."
"Okay, take your time to think about it."
Wu Changyun was still unaware of Yuan Aijia's little thoughts. He knew that the Great Wall business could not continue. If the price was right, the other party would have sold it long ago.
Yuan Aijia is not stupid. Although their movies did not do well at the box office, Wu Changyun's did well.
The cinema chain doesn't care which movie performs well at the box office, as long as it is released, they will make money. If they give Wu Changyun an opportunity, the cinema chain's business will probably become more difficult in the future, which is undoubtedly destroying their own rice bowl.
This is Wu Changyun's biggest difficulty right now. Although he owns four cinema chains, only one of them is truly up to standard.
You know, building a cinema requires more than just money.
