Ye Shuning said this out of a desire to help mainland China. Importing many products into mainland China is difficult. Many people overseas are hesitant to do business with mainland China because they don't understand the situation there.
Ling Xuan said, "That's right. In fact, the mainland lacks everything. Their technology is too backward, and their equipment is outdated. The Ling family has always had business dealings with the mainland. The mainland needs so many things, but there are restrictions on the mainland in many aspects. In particular, Nangang used to restrict businesses from doing business with the mainland, so we don't do it on a large scale and don't dare to go too far.
The items we sell to the mainland aren't anything sensitive; they're mostly daily necessities. Like the fabric you mentioned, we also sell a batch to the mainland every year. In the past, regulations on both sides were very strict, but they've gotten much better in recent years. However, most people in Nangang still don't dare to do business with the mainland.
Ye Shuning said: "The mainland market will open up sooner or later, and it will probably be a few years away. Before that, we must be well prepared and accumulate our strength.
The future development of the garment industry in Nangang will definitely be restricted, so we must be prepared.
When the mainland opens up, I will definitely go back and invest and build a factory. Firstly, the mainland has cheap labor and a vast market. Secondly, it will create jobs for the local area and boost the local economy. It's a win-win situation.
But now is not the time to think about that; we should first consider building a weaving factory."
Qin Zongye asked, "Where are you going to buy the equipment for the factory?"
Ye Shuning said: "Currently, Country M has the most advanced technology. Let's go to Country M to investigate and purchase equipment from there if it's suitable.
At present, some weaving equipment in Nangang is outdated and will be eliminated sooner or later. We must stay ahead.
But I don’t have much money at the moment, so it all depends on how the new movie does at the box office.”
Qin Zongye said, "The premiere is the day after tomorrow. I've brought you the tickets, so don't forget to go and see it. I have a feeling this new movie will create new history for Nangang."
The three of them talked freely until very late.
The new movie was finally released, with its first preview at a cinema owned by Wanhua Film Company. Qin Zongye invited some media reporters to the preview, hoping that they would help promote the movie after watching it.
Because of the previous promotional video of the new movie on TV, many reporters were very interested in this movie, so there were quite a few reporters coming.
Qin Zongye also invited some bosses from other film companies. Because of the Qin family's influence, some bosses from other film companies came.
The screening room of this cinema has more than 300 seats, which is considered a relatively large cinema in Nangang. At this time, the seats are almost full.
Seeing this scene, Ye Shuning was quite satisfied, at least there was no empty space.
Director Wu and other main creative staff sat in the first row, Ye Shuning, Ling Xuan and Qin Zongye sat in the second row. Soon the lights went out and the movie began.
The film opens with a bloody and suspenseful massacre, where the protagonist's sect is wiped out overnight. Only the protagonist survives, and then begins his journey to track down the murderer and seek revenge.
The story is very attractive, and the martial arts moves in the film are all carefully designed. Many forms of fighting have never appeared in other films. It is very enjoyable to watch and immediately attracts people's attention.
This movie has no stars, nor the hard-core kung fu of previous movies, but the story is full of twists and turns, and the ending is also very satisfying. The large number of wonderful martial arts moves are dazzling and the scenes are thrilling.
The costumes and appearances are also eye-catching, the music fits the plot perfectly, the interludes are beautiful and melodious, and the scenes are more realistic than previous movies, all of which make people marvel at this movie.
This film also opened the door to a new world of Nangang films. Many new elements in the film are praised by people.
The new movie "The Gallant and Righteous" became a hit. At first, it was only shown in the cinemas that Qin Zongye found. Later, more and more people began to line up to buy movie tickets, and more and more cinemas took the initiative to contact Qin Zongye and Wanhua Film Company, requesting more copies to show the movie.
All the cinemas are racing against time, it all costs money.
Qin Zongye took Ye Shuning with him and drove around the various cinemas in Nangang. There were long queues in almost every cinema to buy movie tickets, and all the tickets were for their movies.
Every cinema has a high film screening rate, and every show is full. Now there are reports of requests for additional prints every day, and the box office is rising steadily.
Sitting in the car, Qin Zongye said excitedly: "Xiao Ning, we succeeded. We made a lot of money this time. The latest statistics have reached 10 million box office. It's only been a few days. Many people have just heard about this movie and are ready to go see it. I estimate the box office will continue to grow.
Our new film has undoubtedly made history in Nangang cinema. Director Wu has become famous, the actors have become famous, and you, the screenwriter, have become famous too. The costumes and the martial arts moves you designed are unprecedented. You have opened the door to a new world for people."
Ye Shuning felt a little embarrassed by Qin Zongye's praise, "It's not as great as you say, I just expressed my thoughts.
But making movies is so easy to make money. How much do you have to sell to make 10 million yuan in business? No wonder so many people in Nangang are investing in movies now."
Qin Zongye sighed, "Yes, this is still the local box office. All revenue from overseas is net profit. Southeast Asia and other countries are also the main markets for our Nangang films. Making a hit movie is like having a money-printing machine. Otherwise, why would so many people in Nangang work so hard to make movies?"
How about it, are there any new scripts? We can continue to make movies and make money.
Ye Shuning smiled and said, "Yes, I have a lot of stories here. I have any subject you want. I'm just worried that you don't have the energy to make them all into movies."
Qin Zongye's eyes sparkled with surprise. "Of course not. I can hire one or two more directors and make movies at the same time. Then we can release them at different times. That way, we can have several high-quality movies released each year. The box office revenue that year will be much faster than running a factory."
Ye Shuning said with a smile, "It's nothing here. A single movie in Country M can rake in hundreds of millions at the box office. They say movies are a smokeless industry. But what I'm most interested in is doing business. That's more practical than making movies."
It’s more reassuring to stick to your own profession.
