Chapter 713 Founding Hong Kong Island Film and Television University (Part 1)

"I admit that the high-tech star system is correct, but the focus of what I am talking about is not this!" Lao Huang grabbed his scalp and smiled bitterly. "Adu should have told you about this problem, but since I started, I will make it clearer and clearer."

"Damn, what is the sniper belt slid?" Lin Yu said unhappily, "I have said it long ago. It is absolutely impossible for Hong Kong Island movies to rely on me alone. You know this... Oh, okay, okay, just say whatever you have, it makes me angry."

"Haha, your high-paying star system has indeed left behind some filmmakers with good acting skills and great reputations, but you don't know. After you do this, the two-level differentiation in Hong Kong movies is very serious!" Lao Huang pointed to the car behind and said, "Look, even if you won the Oscar this time and Zhang Suping, his value for joining a movie is only less than 500,000. And female stars like Gong Li, who are between first-class and second-class, are worth around 800,000. Tell me, is it fair to continue like this?"

"Oh? Then what about the director's most valuable value?" Lin Yu frowned tightly and thought, "The most outstanding part of the movie is the actors and directors. Others include makeup artists and sound engineers are all unrespected staff members. It is normal for the price to be low, but it is really weird to have such a low price! A logistics worker who won an international award can't even match the value of a local second-rate actor. Wouldn't that force them to go outside?"

"The director is a little better. Generally speaking, as long as the famous director is worth more than 1 million yuan, international directors like Wang Jing and Johnnie To Wu will have a high net worth!" Old Huang said with a smile, "Jiahe has been asking Wang Jing to shoot a movie called "Extreme Bullet" these days. The price is 4.5 million yuan. Now this kid is considering it!"

"Haha. It is absolutely necessary for filmmakers to make a lot of money." Lin Yu first affirmed this, and then said, "As for other logistics personnel, I have no way to increase their prices yet. What are your best solutions?"

"Oh, it's really hard to deal with!" Old Huang didn't know how much of his hair had been caught for this matter. He shook his head and said, "Now, there are filming films in Hong Kong every day, but he has to worry about whether he can invite the right photographer and makeup artist in his heart to the next movie. There is nothing he can do about it. Everyone is not happy! The slogans people shouted are why actors are so much higher than ours? Why are our top workers not as popular as a third-rate actor?... Alas, I have wanted to tell you about these things for a long time, but I am afraid of disturbing you, so I waited until now to say them."

"Well, this matter seems to be time to be resolved!" Lin Yu said, "I actually thought of this day long ago. Haha... Oh. By the way, how are the revenues of several film companies in Hong Kong this year?"

"This is very good." Old Huang was also happy to talk about this, with a red light on his face. "So far, there are 24 movies released in Hong Kong, and there are also some flops, but overall, each company has made a lot of money. For example, Jiahe's "New Police Story" has a box office of nearly 100 million in Asia, and their investment is only 8 million. And their "Flying Dragon" also made about 85 million. In short, whether it is Xinyi City, Jiahe or our Interstellar Hong Kong Branch, everyone has made much more money than in previous years. Haha, don't worry, their two companies basically no longer have loans. Of course, they can't get a loan if they have money."

"Okay, just make money!" Lin Yu clapped his hands and smiled, "Then I'm going to have a meeting with Zou Wenhuai and Mai Jia!"

"What are you doing for a meeting?" Old Huang said inexplicably, "They are very busy now. The heads of both families have basically been dispatched, and there is basically no time for a day."

"How can I solve the problem if I don't have a meeting?" Lin Yu pondered. "For the development of Hong Kong Island movies, the production fee of at least 10 million Hong Kong dollars I set last year is obviously not good. I have to raise the price, and I also have to explain to them my intention to do this. I want them to willingly agree to increase the salary of logistics workers."

"I'm afraid this is not good, right?" Lao Huang said worriedly. "Although the mainland film administration promised to open up the market, we have a natural safe haven, but because of the mainland's economic backwardness, many of our movies cannot be released. They can only be released in coastal cities and some major cities. They are now thinking about how to raise money to buy dilapidated cinemas in the mainland and then repair them for screenings! If you ask them to bleed now, it will be difficult. I'm afraid that even if you issue a notice with a tough stubbornness, they will hold a grudge."

"It's okay, haha, if I don't do this, it's impossible to solve some things well." Lin Yu clenched his fists and said firmly, "I can call the mainland to talk about this matter. If they allow it, I will spend money to set up a theater company in the mainland to acquire those dilapidated cinemas. At the same time, while renovating, it also vigorously builds thousands of theaters, striving to achieve the grand goal of holding 50,000 theaters around the world."

"5...50,000?" Old Huang was almost frightened and had a heart attack. He coughed a few times, and said with a flushed face, "We have about 8,000 now, right? Including those that originally belonged to the world!"

"It seems to be!" Lin Yu recalled and said, "I hold 60% of the theaters in Hong Kong Island. I have dozens of cinemas in Asia, South Korea, Japan, Treasure Island, and Singapore. If I add up, I basically control 8,000. After all, there are 500 in the world!"

"Then you still build so many things? A movie theater will cost at least 3.4 million, right? Besides, can you manage it?" Old Huang was not worried that he was wasting money, but was afraid that he would not manage it well.

"I specially hire someone to manage it. At worst, I can spend 1.8 million yuan a month specifically to pay people from its cinemas!" Lin Yu said this very simple.

"Where is the account?" Lao Huang said worriedly. "The account is the key point. Can you know that they are not corrupt?"

"This..." Lin Yu scratched his head and thought for a while, "What do you think you should do?"

"Use the joint ticket sales method." After all, Lao Huang had to have more experience. After thinking about it, he had a solution and said, "Movie tickets are printed by a printing factory, and then the ticket office is placed at the entrance of the cinema. Two cameras are installed at the entrance, one is located at the ticket office, and the other is looking at the main entrance. In this way, if anyone is tied up for money, we will know at most one week."

"Why are you going to find a group of people to watch these video tapes?" Lin Yu suddenly felt his head abrupt and calculated with his fingers, "How many people do you have to invite?"

"There is no way, who is unpredictable?" Old Huang said helplessly.

"Well, let's just do it for now!" Lin Yu had no choice but to do this now, but he thought to himself, "When the computer era comes, there is no need to watch video tapes. As long as you sit in the monitoring room of Zhongyang, you will see everything."

"Well, this problem has been solved. I have the most important problem to discuss with you." Lao Huang changed his face again this time.

"Tell me, tell me, I'll listen!" Lin Yu seemed to listen with a tilted ear.

"I think it is necessary to spend money to build a film and television university that serves entirely for films!" Lao Huang said his thoughts almost word by word.

"Why?" Lin Yu's heart moved, but there was no expression on his face.

"Just to cultivate some truly high-quality film talents, and to cultivate some latecomers who can succeed." Lao Huang still had a stern face, as if Lin Yu owed him money.

"Haha, let's talk about this later. We're at the company." Lin Yu looked out the window and then opened the car door.

"Boss, I won't go up." Eddie got out of the car and said, "In addition to reporting some work to you, I came to Hong Kong Island, Baodao, Japan, South Korea and other regions and countries to find branches. Now our Hong Kong Island branch is located in the HSBC Building, a big sign that you can see from a distance. Now I will go back and prepare to go to Baodao."

There are now more than a dozen banks in Lin Yuguang, including banks in Asian countries such as Hong Kong Island, Japan, Baodao, mainland China, South Korea, and Europe and the United States. However, Hong Kong Island Standard Chartered Bank is the base camp of Lin Yu Bank. HSBC is the second bank among Lin Yu Bank.

"Well, be careful and don't make yourself too tired." Lin Yu said to the driver, "Take Mr. Eddie to HSBC!"

"This Eddie is really a talent for doing practical things. Boss, I don't know how you found him!" Old Huang looked at Eddie walking away in the car and couldn't help but smile.

"Haha, this is called personal charm!" Lin Yu patted him, then turned around and said to other people who got out of the car one after another, "Let's go up and have a good chat! I haven't held a meeting for a long time."

...

The Star Building is still similar to before, and has not changed much. At most, it is more busy. There are more cars parked in the yard and more money.

Everyone came outside Lin Yu's office, and Lao Huang opened the door first, and a refreshing fragrance suddenly came to his face, not the musty smell that had not been inhabited for several months.

"It's not bad, I know how to clean the room for my boss." Lin Yu walked in with a smile, and Stephen Chow and Andy Lau had naturally gone back to work on their own affairs, so there were only six people left in the office, including Lin Yu, Run Run Shaw, Zou Wenhuai, Wong Bai-ming, Johnnie To and Lao Gu who had just arrived.
