You don't understand the happiness of the director
Chapter 159: I’m asking you to step into two different boats, it’s a waste of time (3, monthly ticke
Cheng Long's driver took Wang Quan to Kowloon and said, "Director Wang, it's just ahead. The car can't get in."
"Okay, master, just wait for me outside."
Although Wang Quan had learned the truth from the Tao family and his son, it was his first time to come to Tao's Medical Clinic, and even to Xiangjiang.
This street is full of life, crowded and lively. When you walk to the end of the alley, it is much deserted, and you feel like you are looking for a quiet place in a busy city. Wang Quan saw the sign of Tao's Medical Center, and when he entered, he saw a doctor who was less than three years old. Ten years old, a young man who looks somewhat similar to Tao Weilong.
"Are you Tao Liman? I have seen your photo."
"Yes, I also know that you are a director, King David." Tao Liman put down the medicine jar in his hand.
Tao Liman, Dorothy's brother and half-mother, yes, Tao Weilong had a previous marriage in Xiangjiang.
Since we know each other, it's easy to say, "I'm looking for Grandpa Da Qi, where are the others?"
"I just came back from the United States and am resting at home."
Wang Quan asked again, "Actually, I want to find Boss Zou. He usually does conditioning on this day, right?"
Tao Liman said, "It won't be until evening, and the old man will come by then."
Wang Quan, "Then let me wait here. I won't delay your business, right?"
Tao Liman thought for a while, "It's going to be a long time. There's a movie theater in front. Why don't you go there and watch a movie? Just come back at five o'clock."
This guy is quite considerate, so that's fine.
Wang Quan stood up to say goodbye. He first told Cheng Long's driver to go back first as he would have to wait until very late. Then he found a nearby movie, and by coincidence, it was Jiahe Cinema.
Xiangjiang has a population of less than 7 million, less than half that of Beijing, but its box office output is extremely high, with more than one billion every year. Even in the global box office market, this city alone can occupy about 20 places in the world, surpassing most countries.
In addition, Hong Kong's foreign-language film box office share far exceeds the Mainland's 13%, almost three times as much, so Hollywood now pays more attention to Hong Kong than the Mainland.
The annual box office of more than 1 billion is generated by more than 40 cinemas.
At this time, the theater structure in Xiangjiang has long been different from the golden age. Today, the leading eldest brother is the Broadway theater chain operated by Anle Film Company, which is Jiang Zhiqiang's company.
Secondly, there are Yinghuang Cinemas, Jiahe’s Jiahe Cinemas, Xinbao Cinemas inherited from Golden Princess, and AMC, the cinema giant from North America.
Wang Quan walked into this Jiahe Cinema, looking here and there as if inspecting his own property. The various facilities were not as new as the newly opened cinemas in the mainland, and there were not too many people. First of all, it was not the peak movie season, and secondly, it was daytime.
Judging from the film schedule, the most popular movies right now are the new film "Juno", the two-week-old film "Night at the Museum" and the three-week-old film "The Disciple".
"Juno" and Throne's performance at the Oscars have attracted a lot of viewers to the film.
Wang Quan chose "The Disciple" which he had never seen. Azu and Zhang Jingchu are both old friends.
There were no more than 10 people in the theater. Wang Quan noticed that there were two young, beautiful and fashionable girls in front of him. It was quite interesting to listen to their conversation.
"I told you to watch Juno, but you insist on watching this."
"Okay, baby, this kind of movie is exciting. I really look forward to Tim Lok playing a drug addict. The worse he is, the more I love him!"
"Shanshan, you are such a nympho."
"Don't you like Andy Lau?"
"That's true, as long as I see him, I will probably burst into tears."
Then the two little sisters got up hugging each other, and Wang Quan behind him held his forehead, hoping that they wouldn't be so noisy when watching the movie, otherwise they would have to watch it in the "movie library".
Fortunately, after the screening started, the place became quiet.
Wang Quan took Wang Quan very seriously. This is Er Dongsheng's another peak masterpiece after "New Love", and whether it is Hua Tsai, Zhang Jingchu, or Koo Tim Lok, they all acted so well, making A Zu There is nothing to compare with, especially Zhang Jingchu. The mice crawling on her in the end should be real, and there is no trace of editing or special effects.
Those are not pet rats, they are dirty market rats, and they are very tough.
After leaving the theater, Wang Quan was about to watch other movies when the phone rang. It was Hideo Umekawa from Neon.
"Squad leader, I have a report!" Umekawa said nervously, "Ms. Dorothy is coming to Tokyo!"
King Quan, "Oh?"
It turns out that she didn't go back to Los Angeles, but that's normal. A Dragon Head branch was opened in Tokyo, and it wasn't appropriate for her to have even been there.
"Have you picked her up?"
"No, she asked me to give her the company address and she took a taxi here. But now that she's here, what should I say? Do I need to hold back?"
Royal power, "She is the big boss and does not need to be reserved."
"In my heart, the squad leader will always be the big boss."
"Stop flattering her. You'd better hold her back. I'll go to Tokyo later."
"Okay, okay."
Wang Quan was on the phone, while the two women behind him were staring at him and muttering.
"Shanshan, do you think that man looks like King David?"
"Who is a big eater? What is he good at eating?"
"Don't always think about eating. It's the director who won the Oscar, the director of "Juno", King Power!"
"Ah!" Shanshan was surprised, "It really looks like they are both so handsome, even more handsome than Louis Koo!"
"Should we go over and ask?" the mixed-race girl asked.
Shanshan hesitated, "Will the great director pay attention to us?"
"Let's try it."
After Wang Quan put away his cell phone, they immediately approached him, "Hello, are you the director King David?"
Along the way, he was finally recognized by fans. Wang Quan nodded, "It's me."
The two women hugged each other excitedly, their excitement beyond words.
"Can you sign your autograph for us? We are your fans!"
"Yes, we really like "Juno"!"
King Power, fart, you have never seen "Juno"! Pretend I didn’t hear it!
However, Wang Quan did not show off to his fake fans, "Okay, paper and pen."
The two of them looked at each other, but they didn't bring any paper or pen.
Wang Quan, "I did bring a pen, but no paper."
The big-eyed girl named Baby immediately said, "You can sign it on the clothes!"
The white navel-baring vest she wore made another girl named Shanshan angry. Please, your clothes cost more than a hundred, but mine costs more than a thousand! You don’t feel bad, I feel bad!
But now Wang Quan has started to sign the baby's clothes, just on the flat area under the chest.
Wang Quan's face didn't turn red, he didn't pant, his hands didn't shake, and he finished in one breath.
The other girl finally made a decision. She turned her back to Wang Quan and gently lifted her clothes, "Director Wang, please sign it on me. I think it makes more sense!"
The big-eyed girl named baby's eyes widened, "Oh, Shanshan, you still know how to flirt, why didn't I think of that!"
Later, at the strong request of the two girls, Wang Quan took a group photo with them again. He was sandwiched between the two little girls, and one of them had an arm.
After watching them leave, Wang Quan lamented that future female stars are now so humble. Wang Quan has seen them in many movies in the future.
After that, Wang Quan went into the "Juno" hall again and watched other movies in the film and television library with his eyes closed. At the same time, he observed the situation in the theater. There were more than 20 people during the day, and the attendance rate was quite acceptable.
The time was almost up, Wang Quan returned to Tao Medical Clinic, and there was a legend in the Xiangjiang film industry with him.
Uncle Shao Liu!
I saw him, accompanied by Ms. Fang, walking slowly to the door of the medical center without using a wheelchair or crutches.
Who would have thought that this thin old man is already a hundred years old!
Wang Quan felt amazing. At such an old age, could he still come to Grandpa Tao to seek medical advice?
He quietly followed in and heard Ms. Fang say, "Xiao Tao, Uncle Six and I were shopping nearby. We passed by and came over to see Mr. Tao. Where are the others?"
Tao Liman was sweating now. He usually drove his grandfather to Shao Mansion to check Uncle Liu's pulse and get medicine. This was the first time he saw Uncle Liu come to visit. The key was to come today!
Hearing Ms. Fang's voice, Tao Daqi hurried out of the room inside. Like a sixty-year-old young man, he seemed a little panicked, "Ah, Uncle Six, why are you here in person? It's really, really... …”
Before he finished speaking, another old man walked out of the room inside. He had not yet put on his clothes and was buttoning them. He could vaguely see two needles stuck in his head. There was only a ring of hair left on the top of his head. He was wearing glasses. The painting style is somewhat similar to that of Shao Liushu.
Wang Quan recognized this person, it was Boss Zou!
The two enemies, the eighty-year-old Boss Zou and the one-hundred-year-old Uncle Shao, looked at each other, then both looked at Tao Daqi, and said in unison, "So you're still treating him."
In this scene, Wang Quan felt that he had a strong sense of déjà vu. Why did he suddenly feel that Grandpa Daqi was such a scumbag?
Even Tao Daqi, who has seen strong winds and waves, is a little at a loss at this time. He feels guilty. Damn, let you step on both sides.
Fortunately, he saw Wang Quan and immediately changed the subject, "Since the two big guys are here, I would like to introduce you to the super rookie in the film industry today, the super great director Wang Quan who will be unlimited in the future!"
He hurriedly pulled Wang Quan to his side, "This kid is very good."
Uncle Shao Liu, "You are King Quan. I watched it on Oscar night and I also watched the movie. It's pretty good."
"Thank you Uncle Liu for your praise."
Zou Wenhuai, "There is indeed a bright future. I heard you were looking for me."
"Yes, Boss Zou."
Wang Quan felt like he was blocking the bullet for the scumbag Tao Daqi, and hurriedly said, "Grandpa Tao, why don't you consult the two old gentlemen first? My matter is not urgent, who should you consult first?"
Then Shao Liushu and Zou Wenhuai once again set their sights on Tao Daqi.
Tao Daqi glared at Wang Quan fiercely, "Haha, Uncle Liu doesn't need to ask a doctor. He can tell by just looking at his complexion that he can live another five hundred years."
Then he pulled out the two needles on Boss Zou's head and said, "Boss Zou has also taken care of it. There is no problem."
The scene froze again, and it was Uncle Shao who spoke first, "Doctor Tao comes to our house if he has time. Director Wang also welcomes you. Ah Hua, let's continue shopping."
Tao Daqi personally sent it out and said with a smile, "Uncle Liu is so lucky to be able to go shopping with his friends at the age of 100."
Uncle Shao smiled and waved his hand.
After handling a boat, Tao Daqi breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time Wang Quan and Zou Wenhuai had already sat down face to face.
"Mr. Zou, it is a bit presumptuous to pay you a visit today."
Zou Wenhuai, "So you're looking for me?"
Wang Quan, "You may also know that I am not only a director and screenwriter, but I also run my own film company and opened a Dragon Head Shop in the United States with Grandpa Tao's granddaughter Dorothy."
"Yeah, I understand." Zou Wenhuai nodded.
Wang Quan added, "I also opened a film company in the mainland called Wangdao. I am here to represent Wangdao. I would like to ask Mr. Zou, Jiahe, do you have any plans to take action?"
Jiahe is his life's work. Hearing someone ask him if he wants to sell it, Zou Wenhuai feels a little sentimental. However, selling Jiahe is his true idea. It is mainly the idea of his family. It would be worse if Jiahe is left there and depreciates year by year. Sell it before it's too late and they can do what they want.
He no longer evaded, "I did have this plan. I am getting older and the children at home are not interested in the film industry, so I have to find a good home for Jiahe. But I want to ask, why is it the king's way and not The dragon raises its head.”
Nowadays, there are definitely many more people who know Long Toutitou than Wang Dao. Who knows what Wang Dao will develop into in the future.
Wang Quan said, "Longtou is a Hollywood company. If Jiahe sells itself to Longtou, it will only be responsible for the distribution work in Asia in the future and will hardly be involved in the production business. But if it is sold to the mainland Wangdao, Jiahe will still be the same Jiahe. It will be me." The Jiahe that I have watched since I was a child, even relying on the mainland market, has hope of regaining its vitality."
This sentence touched Zou Wenhuai very much. He still longed to see the title of Four Gold Bricks appear in theaters one day. However, after "Lucky Man" in 2003, Golden Harvest no longer produces movies.
Boss Zou looked at the young and shameless Wang Quan, "Excuse me, I want to ask, are you sure you have the strength to take over?"
A Jiahe is worth at least seven to eight hundred million.
"Whether it's financial strength or mental preparation, I have already prepared it." Wang Quan took out a folder from his bag, "This is the plan I made."
Wang Quan is good at writing scripts, but this was his first time writing a plan, but this time he couldn't fake Dorothy and had to do it himself. What he used most was his own sincerity.
In this plan, Wang Quan did not shy away from the idea of using Golden Harvest as a springboard and transit to promote Chinese-language films. In his opinion, this is also one of the values of Golden Harvest.
In this process, King Quan will first expand the scale of Jiahe's theater chain to become the largest in Southeast Asia. It will also divide the river with Dawang Theater in the mainland, with one dominating the north and the other deeply cultivating the south.
Secondly, King Quan will use the latest American technology to restore Golden Harvest's rich film library and convert it into high-definition, giving these old films a new lease of life.
In the future, there will be co-production projects with the mainland, from small to large, from small to large, returning Golden Harvest to the top studios in Hong Kong.
Boss Zou watched very carefully, and an hour passed quickly.
After closing the plan, Boss Zou asked, "According to what you said, you will have to invest a lot of money in the future. You have so much money."
Wang Quan said frankly, "Not yet, but I have a strong ability to make money. I can make hundreds of millions from one movie, "Escape Room" or "Juno."
"Don't worry, I don't want to talk too much about you, Leo. I'm just worried that your financial resources can't keep up with your ideas." He asked again, "Then do you only want the part of the shares that I hold, or do you want others as well?"
Wang Quan's eyes were bright, "I want them all!"
