Chapter 87 Pan Disheng
Taking out one million Hong Kong dollars to do charity is just right for Pan Disheng and others who are currently starting their career.
What's more, for everyone here, the focus is not on one million, but on establishing charitable funds, which can gain a good reputation and as a link to enclose everyone.
No matter how deep this relationship is, if you move less, your interests are weaker, and your friendship will become weaker.
As soon as he finished talking about the charity fund, Huo Zhenting smiled at Zhang Shaoping and scolded: "You guy is unreliable in doing things. He is imaginative. No one knows what you think and do next! A few months ago, you told me what you wanted to build a high-end private club and asked me to recruit people. Many people would be interested in what they said. As a result, I ran a round and got tired of talking. Guo Kongcheng and Zhao Shiguang clearly stated that they would participate in a copy."
Zhang Shaoping asked angrily: "What are your Huo family busy doing now?"
Huo Zhenting glanced at him strangely and said, "Invest in the mainland! Why are you asking about this?"
“What industry do you invest in?”
"Don't you all know, hotels, infrastructure, housing market......"
Zhang Shaoping clapped his hands and said, "Yes! Your Huo family is engaged in infrastructure and housing market. Others are also doing this. Everyone is busy buying at the bottom. It would be strange if you can find someone."
It is no exaggeration to say that it is a bottom-up.
Li Jiacheng's Cheung Industry, Li Zhaoji's Sun Hung Kai, Hu Yingxiang's Hehe Industry, Zheng Yutong's New World, and Henderson's Shimao, Chinachem, Nanfeng, Xinhe, and Junying.

This is the most emerging leader in the real estate industry. Taking advantage of the stock market crash and the collapse of the real estate bubble, many of the old real estate companies have repeatedly attacked old real estate companies. Many of the old real estate companies have failed investments and poor capital turnover due to the bursting of the real estate bubble. Now they are all busy putting out fires, selling their properties at a low price, tearing down the western wall and repairing the east wall, or simply liquidating them.
Whether it is politics or business, if emerging forces arise, they will inevitably challenge the existing interests of the old forces. A great representative of the old forces is the British-funded and pro-Hong Kong-British government Chinese consortium, while the emerging forces are the Chinese consortium. From finance, real estate, logistics, transportation, department stores, all to catering, media and other industries, there is only one situation, that is, the Chinese consortium is gradually controlling the economic lifeline of Hong Kong.
This is why, in the later years, the British government made more and more concessions in several rounds of negotiations between China and Britain, because those who had withdrawn British capital were withdrawn, and those who had not withdrawn were acquired by the Chinese consortium. None of them had any benefits, so they simply gave up and it didn't matter.
"No matter how much you earn, it is from the family. Except for getting millions of dollars a year, I can't get a penny for normal!" Huo Zhenting called out "Qu", and then said half-truely, "I am neither like Ade who can inherit the family's Pangma family's property nor like Liu and Disheng who have the ability to break into another sky. Of course, it's even worse than you. I dare not think about starting from scratch. I just hope you can take a few things."
Zhang Shaoping said: "I only have one project in my hand now, which is to build a big movie theater. Do you want to join?"
Huo Zhenting was stunned and asked, "No, are you here? You have set up two theaters and have a subsidy of 300,000 to 400,000 yuan every month. Do you think you are not losing enough?"
Zhang Shaoping wiped the tip of his nose and said dryly: "I haven't made a movie before. I have to pay the tuition for the money I lose, but this time I am well prepared and can definitely do it."
"You guys swear last time that you will never have to worry about having a theater without a source of films. What's the result? Except for some movies that are not available in theaters, there is no more formal film company willing to be affiliated with your theater. It would be strange if you don't lose your fault." Huo Zhenting suddenly exposed Zhang Shaoping's scars.
"I learned from the lessons I learned last time. This time I plan to start with a film company and produce self-sufficiently, which is definitely enough for the film source." Zhang Shaoping swears to the sky.
"Then it will be quicker!" Huo Zhenting blurted out, "Look at Uncle Shao Liu, he is self-sufficient, and now he is desperate to death!"
Shaw Brothers Pictures has always been the main studio system, with rigid systems and poor creativity. It is either old-fashioned martial arts movies or followers of the trend. In the past few years, Shaw Brothers produced thirty or forty movies every year to fill the theater schedule with quantity. Because Shaw Brothers movies are so fucked, basically one week after the attendance rate dropped to less than 30%, then the painting was drawn, and then the second one was released.
Last year, Shaw Brothers and his arch-rivaled rival Jiahe joined forces to fight Xinyi City. In addition to killing the strong enemy at the Chinese germination, there is another very important reason, that is, Shaw Brothers' movies are so painful that they can't even last for a week's release. In order to reduce losses, Shaw Brothers had to shook hands with his arch-rivaled enemy and talked about peace for now, "borrowing" Zou's movies to support the store.
When Jiahe and Princess Jin saw this situation, they were really worried. The more they felt that the large studio system was not feasible, and they became more and more acknowledged the superiority of the satellite system. However, this extremely worrying satellite system will soon become a time bomb in the future, so I won't mention it here.
When Zhang Shaoping heard Huo Zhenting's words, he was speechless. Damn, you are a friend like this. Before he started, he sang my play.
In fact, it is no wonder that Huo Zhenting has no sense of investment in movies. People who don’t know how to go in and lose a lot of people. Just thinking about the number of famous film institutions in Hong Kong once reached about 400, but now only 50 are famous, you know that playing this is a scam. In summary, Huo Zhenting has no confidence in Zhang Shaoping’s movies.
Just when Zhang Shaoping was not interested and didn't want to say anything, Pan Disheng said in a flash: "I think Hong Kong movies have great potential. In the next few years, the film market will definitely ascend like a rocket."
Zhang Shaoping glanced at him in surprise and asked, "Is it possible that Brother Pan also intends to enter the film industry?"
In the original time and space, Pan Disheng acquired the Debao Company, which was established by Sammo Hung and Cen Jianxun two years later, and then took advantage of the decline of Shaw Brothers, and rented the entire Shaw Brothers theater. With this as the foundation, Debao completely replaced Shaw Brothers and became one of the three giants that stood with Jiahe and Xinyi City. However, Debao's lifespan was also very short and he graduated in 1988. The big reason was that this guy was just to pick up girls - to please the Malaysian lady Yang Ziqiong. When he was able to hold the beauty, the film company immediately closed.
Before the media and newspapers could hear that Yang Ziqiong was elected as a Miss Malaysia, and before the girl appeared, this guy was about to interfere in the film industry. What did he like? Thinking of this, Zhang Shaoping was confused. Could it be that the "net army" in later generations were spraying the wrong saliva? He was also really making movies!
"Hehehe, Brother Shaoping, let me be honest with you. I never thought about this before you talked to Brother Zhenting about the movie, but now I really want to do it." Pan Disheng said with a smile, generously admitting that he was moved.
Yang Minde gave him a blank look and said angrily: "Do you think making movies is a brand, it's a waste of time."
Pan Disheng was told by his wife that his face could not be kept in his face and said unconvincedly: "You can't say that, isn't this movie just a brand? The production company is like a manufacturer, the distribution company is like a wholesaler, the theater chain is a shopping mall, and the movie is a product. If the movie is good, it is famous brands, and if it is bad, it is a miscellaneous brand. To make a famous brand, it is necessary to take the route of high-quality products. It is also simple to make a high-quality script. First of all, the script must be first-class, creative, and gimmicks, and then find a good director and hire some good actors. The funds are in place, and everything is OK."
Mr. Pan said as he splashed, pointed out the country and slapped the world. Liu Luanxiong expressed doubts after hearing this and said, "No, it should be that there are good actors to make good movies, right? Look, Xinyi City filmed "Best Partner", but it took 2 million yuan in the film and 3% of the Japanese box office share to poach Xu Guanjie from Jiahe. Also, a few years ago, Jiahe and Luo Wei Pictures fought hard for Cheng Long, and even used despicable means of kidnapping and intimidation. Not to mention that when Li Xiaolong was alive, he led the whole Hong Kong movie alone. Do you think a movie is the most important thing? "
Huo Zhenting shook his head and said, "Although Liu is right, it is not entirely true. The most important thing for a drama is the director. Not to mention anything else, just Cheng Long. In the past, Luo Wei helped him film filming films, making one movie but one movie was a hit, but after he switched to Jiahe, the film "Junior Brother Takes the Horse" immediately exceeded 10 million box office for the first time. Then the Hollywood director helped him film "Killer Trench", and it was so disappointing that he couldn't. The same actor, different directors, the film had different ends. Isn't this a problem?"
Zhu Lingling was just listening very ladylikely, but at this time she couldn't help but say, "I also agree with Zhenting's statement. Each director has different temperatures and styles of filming are even more bizarre and imaginative. The actors are like dough, and the director can pinch them at will. Whatever they want is in the hands of the director."
Zhu Lingling didn't talk much, but she said it incisively, which was very appropriate. No matter how good the actor is, he could only follow the director's command, otherwise he would just wait to be rolled into a strange shape.
Liu Luanxiong refused to admit defeat and argued: "If such a director meets Li Xiaolong and Cheng Long, just wait and get out. These two people, whether they are filming, whether they are directors or screenwriters, all the crew will follow their wishes."
Huo Zhenting said: "This is an exception for both of them. How many such actors are there in Hong Kong?"
"How could it be that there is no? Mecca......"
Zhang Shaoping was speechless. As he spoke, these two very laymen were fighting first. Seeing that they were fighting seriously, Zhang Shaoping quickly smoothed out and said, "In my opinion, a movie is like a building. The script is a design drawing, the director is a worker, and the actor is a material, everything is important."
As soon as he said this, Huo Zhenting and Liu Luanxiong were displeased and said, "These are two different things, what's the same?"
"Uh, let's continue, pretend I didn't say anything." Zhang Shao was convinced and retreated directly.
Pan Disheng glanced at the two laymen who were fighting with "contempt" eyes and smiled at Zhang Shaoping: "Brother Zhang, your analogy is so good! What is the most precious thing in the world? It is design innovation. There is no three-legged toad, and people with two legs grab a lot of people, and they have money and drawings. Are you afraid that you can't find skilled workers and buy high-quality materials?"
Zhang Shaoping was speechless and said for a while: "Brother, do you really think that Hong Kong is Hollywood? Most of the directors here have become monks halfway through, oh, and there are almost few screenwriters, and almost few of them are experts. Industrial assembly lines, professional styles, will not work in Hong Kong."
"So this is what I'm confused about. Judging from my investment perspective of making famous brand products, Hong Kong's movies are very strong, but the internal is messy and there is no integration, so the momentum is weak. Therefore, it can be seen that Hong Kong movies will be prosperous, but they will not last long!"
As soon as he said this, Zhang Shaoping's eyes changed when he saw Pan Disheng. This guy's eyes were too vicious, and he could see through the weakness and background of Hong Kong movies at a glance. Thinking about it carefully, this guy invested in movies was the most popular years of Hong Kong Film. After that, he saw a decline and eventually declined. From this point of view, his investment vision was really great.
"If you were making a movie, what would you plan to do it?" Zhang Shaoping asked seriously.
"Me?" Pan Disheng thought about it seriously for a long time, and said with a depressed smile, "There is no medicine to save me! I can only go in and make money and leave."
"No, I haven't tried it, how can you know it won't work?" Zhang Shaoping said in a tempting tone, "Think about it, if a movie can be sold for hundreds of millions or even billions of dollars in the future, will you be willing to try to make a good movie?"
"What did you say? I heard it right? Selling hundreds of millions, and selling more than one billion US dollars in box office? Robbery?" Huo Zhenting exclaimed, looking at Zhang Shaoping as if he was a ghost.
Others also think that Zhang Shaoping is too whimsical. You should know that although the Huo family is now known as a wealthy person in Hong Kong, their assets are only more than 2 billion Hong Kong dollars, which is only about 300 million US dollars. If the movie is really profitable, I'm afraid everyone will invest in it.
"What's impossible? The mainland is so poor, a movie ticket can sell 100 million yuan in box office for a penny, let alone the United States, Japan, Europe and other ticket stores! If a movie can be very popular all over the world, will it be a lot of box office for a few hundred million US dollars?" Zhang Shaoping curled his lips and asked disapprovingly.
