Before the 1970s, Hong Kong movies were mostly costume films, historical films, opera films, and martial arts films were popular. At that time, the film market was not big, and there were not many film companies. Basically, Shaw Brothers dominated the world.

Starting from the 1970s, Hong Kong movies began to mature, and martial arts films continued to flourish. The kung fu films brought by Li Xiaolong were unique. At the same time, Li Hanxiang's romantic films were also brilliant, attracting some people. In recent years, urban films, romantic art films, comedy films, and ghost films have emerged one after another, especially the ghost comedy films of the Xu brothers, Sammo Hung and Cheng Long's kung fu comedy films, which are the most popular.

The increase in the number of films and the increase in the type of films represent the maturity of the Hong Kong film market, so the producers, distributors, theaters, and other theaters are competing for Xiangjiang. Through mergers and acquisitions, the current Three Kingdoms are formed, namely Shaw Brothers, Jiahe, and Xinyi City.

This information is the general interpretation of the collected information through analysis and summary of the Hong Kong film market, which will help him not be too passive in the subsequent negotiations.

After reading two newspapers, Zhang Shaoping glanced at his watch. It was only a few minutes before two o'clock, and it was still early before the agreed time. Just as he was about to take another newspaper, he saw a man in his early thirties walking towards him. After seeing Zhang Shaoping's face clearly, the man asked hesitantly: "Is it Mr. Zhang Shaoping?"

"I am!" Zhang Shaoping immediately stood up and smiled, "You are Mr. Jiang Zhiqiang? Please sit down!"

The two shook hands, Jiang Zhiqiang pulled a chair opposite Zhang Shaoping, sat down, and said, "I never expected Zhang Sheng to be so young. I thought I had gone to the wrong place and recognized the wrong person."

Zhang Shaoping laughed at himself: "Fortunately you left without turning around, otherwise, I would probably doubt whether I was really hairless and couldn't do anything."

Jiang Zhiqiang heard Zhang Shaoping's funny words and couldn't help laughing: "Youdao is a young hero, I dare not underestimate the young man now. These are all handsome men for a while!"

Zhang Shaoping smiled and said, "When you talk about Junyan for a while, who can compare with you, Brother Jiang? You followed your father to Europe at the age of thirteen to find a stable source of films. This is the ability!"

A few words of flattery between each other immediately brought the relationship between the two closer, and the atmosphere was very relaxed.

Regarding Jiang Zhiqiang, Zhang Shaoping heard of such a person in his previous life. When reading entertainment online novels, he had read many introductions about him. I only remember that he has two very awesome titles, "Asian Hero" and "Asian Best Producer". Zhang Shaoping had no impression of "Asian Hero", but the title "Asian Best Producer" is too extraordinary, which shows that he has a very good grasp of the film industry and market trajectory.

Zhang Shaoping was interested in entering the film industry, so he asked someone to conduct a survey on all film companies and theaters, and found that the Hong Kong film industry is now in a situation where there are three big and two small ones and a bunch of fish.

What are the three majors? Of course, they refer to the leading elder brother Jiahe and its theater chains, the ex-bodied bigwig Shaw Brothers and its theater chains, as well as the new noble Princess and the New Art City that defected to it. These three monopolizes 60% of the theater chains in Hong Kong and 90% of the market, and are truly giants.

Speaking of the two little girls, when Zhang Shaoping heard their names for the first time, he was shocked and deeply shocked.

Shuangnan Theater, mainly Nanyang and Nanhua Theater, usually only screens mainland films and Hong Kong left-wing films, such as Great Wall, Phoenix and Xinlian, all of the films of the three left-wing film companies, were released in Shuangnan Theater. However, after Mrs. Thatcher fell in September this year, Shuangnan Theater, Great Wall, Phoenix, Xinlian and the newly established Zhongyuan Film Company merged into the Yindu Institution. That's right, it is the famous giant Yindu Institution in the future!

Yindu Institution is one small and one small, and later generations are also a giant, which is Anle Films. This company hardly produces films, only engages in film distribution and theater business, and most of them screen western films. Anle Films and theaters are nothing in Hong Kong today. If it weren’t for the high-profile boss Jiang Zuyi and a young genius young boss Jiang Zhiqiang, it would be negligible.

No one would have thought that these two small companies and small theaters would almost dominate the entire Hong Kong film industry in the future, and even connected the mainland and spread abroad to Europe and the United States.

Except for these three big and two small, the others are independent cinemas, scattered throughout Hong Kong. Some are in rural areas and islands, and some are in the alleys. There are also stages, such as luxury cinemas in bustling areas, with different sizes and different specifications.

Zhang Shaoping analyzed these theaters and knew that there was only one Anle theater that had the opportunity to acquire. In fact, Zhang Shaoping did not value the theaters, and at most he would acquire an independent cinema at that time. But what really made Zhang Shaoping moved was Jiang Zhiqiang, a real talent! He was the talent he needed the most!

Jiang Zhiqiang, who entered the industry at the age of 13, was well-known in the circle when talking about him, and it made people praise him: "If you have a child, you should be like Jiang Zhiqiang." Zhang Shaoping was eager to get into such a person. For the film and television industry, he could make arrangements and develop slowly, but he lacked a talent who was able to complete the layout and plan for future development. Jiang Zhiqiang was such a great person.

This is also the main reason why Zhang Shaoping asked Jiang Zhiqiang to come out.

After the two of them praised each other for a few words, Zhang Shaoping did not say much, but poured a cup of tea for each of them and made a false gesture of inviting each other. Taking advantage of the tea-tasting space, they looked at each other.

Jiang Zhiqiang was wearing a black suit, with a smile on his face and a gleam that flashed from time to time in his eyes, which showed that he was a smart and capable person. Such a person had ideas and opinions, and was not so easy to convince.

After drinking a pot of tea, Zhang Shaoping still didn't speak, so he brought another pot of tea. He drank very comfortably and looked leisurely. Jiang Zhiqiang didn't want to wait anymore and said straight to the point: "Zhang Sheng is young and very patient! When it comes to the skill of calming the mind, Jiang is not as good as him. But he doesn't know what Zhang Sheng will teach Jiang to come here specifically?"

"What is the skill of cultivating the mind and calming the energy? This is all empty!" Zhang Shaoping waved his hand and smiled, "Jiang Sheng can't calm down first. It's not that I have patience, but that Jiang Sheng does big things, and is bothering and unable to steal. Zhang, as he is stubborn, is full of nothing. This person is too idle, so he wants to move his muscles, loosen his hands and feet, and find something to do. Zhang looked at the entire Hong Kong film industry and found that there was endless business opportunities and had great potential, so he wanted to go in and show his skills, but he just lacked an entry ticket."

Jiang Zhiqiang looked clear and said, "This ticket should be about our Jiang family's Anle Pictures. However, I'm afraid that Zhang Sheng will be disappointed, Anle Pictures will not resell it."

Zhang Shaoping said: "Don't rush to make a decision first! With your perspective, you should also see that the Hong Kong film industry will definitely be very popular in the future, and local films will seriously squeeze the box office space of foreign western films. If Anle Film Company does not involve investment in film production, relying solely on western films, the outcome will definitely not be good. However, if you want to release other films, you lack film sources. Anle Film Company itself does not have strong funds, and independent production is too risky and cannot withstand several tosses. As for imagining like Princess Golden Cinemas, Anle Film Company has too few theaters and is not attractive. The dilemma that Anle Film Company is facing now is not too many!"

“So what?”

"This is why Jiang Sheng is willing to come out to meet me. I need an entrance ticket, Jiang needs my funds to inject, and we each get the needs, that's all."

Jiang Zhiqiang suddenly smiled and said, "Zhang Sheng is indeed a person with a lot of thought. The Jiang family does need funds to inject, but one thing is that Zhang Sheng was wrong."

"Oh, I hope to hear it carefully."

"Zhang Sheng only saw the maturity and popularity of the Hong Kong film market, but did not see the hidden dangers. First of all, the local market in Hong Kong is too small, and it mainly makes money by selling foreign lands. There is no deep market, just like duckweed without foundation, even if it is prosperous, it will not last long. I dare to say that once major foreign land countries such as Southeast Asia, Taiwan, Japan, and South Korea introduce their own cultural protection policies, the glory of Hong Kong films will immediately fall from the clouds and fall to pieces."

Zhang Shaoping really admired this person's vision, which hit the nail on the head.

"Secondly, the Hong Kong film market is mature, but the Hong Kong film industry is not yet mature. Most of the people who engage in movies come to make money, and no one regards it as a career. They are shoddy and follow the trend to shoot, and there is no rules or procedures. When they see profitability, they are rushing up and messy, and they don't even think about making this cake bigger. Last and most importantly, there is too much money injected from outside. Whether it is a local theater chain or a film company, their lifelines are all held in their hands. It is all in one thought for others to kill or cut."

Jiang Zhiqiang talked and analyzed it well, and all these fatal disadvantages were said to be well-known.

This person is really amazing. No wonder later generations can take advantage of the situation and divide the movie cakes in Greater China. But the more this happens, the more eager Zhang Shaoping is. If such a talent is taken into account, it will be of great help to establish an entertainment, culture and media comprehensive group company.

Zhang Shaoping originally wanted to go to the mainland to trade and make some money and live a beautiful life, but as his wealth became more and more abundant, this ambition was born and people had big dreams. Just like Li Jiacheng founded Changjiang Industrial, he also wanted to build his own group company. His ideal is a comprehensive group integrating entertainment, culture and media.

Zhang Shaoping pretended to frown and said, "According to what you said, Hong Kong's film industry will always decline, and we should enter and make money as soon as possible!"

Jiang Zhiqiang shook his head and said, "Hong Kong films will no longer be glorious, but the film market may not collapse. Based on my 20 years of industry experience, Hollywood in the United States will sweep the world with its strong funds and excellent production like assembly lines. Our Anle Film Company has begun to expand imports of Western films and enhance its film distribution and other businesses. The only difference is that the funds are insufficient to support us in many businesses."

"So, when you come to see me, you just want me to invest in supporting your movie distribution business?" Zhang Shaoping really frowned.

"That's right! Before I came, the father and son discussed it. We can divide the Anle issue business, inject capital into you, and jointly reorganize a new company. This is our final decision. If Zhang Sheng is really willing, we will cooperate happily!"

Zhang Shaoping closed his eyes and pondered, and gently patted his thighs rhythmically. Jiang Zhiqiang knew that he was thinking, so he didn't rush at the moment, so he poured a cup of tea and savored it slowly. After a long time, he saw Zhang Shaoping open his eyes and said, "Jiang Sheng, you convinced me, but I want to occupy 51% of the company jointly established, and you must take charge of the general manager! If you agree, I will inject 100 million yuan!"

"What? 100 million?!" Jiang Zhiqiang was shocked by Zhang Shaoping's big moves, but he was a little hesitant, "I am extremely happy to be the general manager of the United Company, but Zhang Sheng holds it, I'm afraid my father and brother will not agree!"

"I paid 100 million yuan. I'm afraid that even if you sell your Anle Pictures in a package, it will be worth the price! What I value is not your distribution channel, but you, I firmly believe in your ability! If you hadn't been the general manager, I wouldn't have talked with you." Zhang Shaoping said lightly.

Jiang Zhiqiang looked directly at Zhang Shaoping and said, "I am grateful for Zhang Sheng's respect for Jiang so much! Yes, Zhang Sheng's request is indeed not too much. I will tell Zhang Sheng's sincerity with my father and brother."

Zhang Shaoping smiled and said, "This is the best! Then I will wait for the good news!"

"It's easy to say!"
