Chapter 53: The integrity is broken, the bottom line reaches the trench

"When will Jiahui return to Hong Kong?" Jiang Zhiqiang asked curiously.

"We should come back together with the queen." Wu Xiaozu pointed to the man outside the window who was hanging the Union Jack flag on the street, and glanced at Jiang Zhiqiang, "What do you think? If you have anything to do with him?"

"It's nothing, it's just that a few companies want to have fun with him." Jiang Zhiqiang glanced at the workers outside with lights and colors and hung the Union Jack flag with interest, and sneered with a sneer, "Talking about what the mainland is like, how good is the ghost guy?

Where are you going? You don’t recognize your own mother, and you cry while holding your enemies in your arms. You forget your ancestors by counting the scriptures..."

"Chiang, please be careful if there are ears on the wall, it will be detrimental to President Chiang." Wu Xiaozu advised him. He was not afraid of having ears, but he was worried that the Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching and the river crabs would be too fat.

"I'll come back and inform Brother Jiahui." Speaking of this, Wu Xiaozu looked helpless. "After the parents-in-law left, I sent countless telegrams to urge them. The company's affairs were in chaos..."

As soon as Jiang Jiahua walked away, the progress of the filming preparations was pretty good, with the help of Li Zhaoji, Liu Weiyi and others. However, various procedures and accounting relations really made Wu Xiaozu very troubled. He sent telegrams continuously to the crew of Li Hanxiang's "Fire Dragon", urging Liang Gaohui and

Jiang Jiahua, come back quickly.

Fortunately, this was Li Hanxiang, otherwise it would have been difficult to send a telegram.

Director Li Hanxiang is one of the very few major directors who has traveled across the Taiwan Strait and three places to make films, and he has indeed played a great role in promoting exchanges in the Chinese film industry.

As one of the first batch of great directors to go to the mainland for filming, Li Hanxiang was known to high-level executives in the mainland. Wu Xiaozu could only "save the country" by having someone send a telegram to this great director.

Leung Gai-fai's parents-in-law were not in Hong Kong. Wu Xiaozu found that life seemed to lack a lot of flavor and he was not used to it. Even eating was not as good as before at Leung Gai-fai's house. This is true.

"I'll send the company's accountant to help you with the financial matters. Then you go to a law firm to file the tax return and verify it." Jiang Zhiqiang smiled bitterly.

The financial connection between the two companies gave Jiang Zhiqiang a big headache. Wu Xiaozu was in a mess and had no idea what to ask. He had no choice but to ask Antai to prepare the financial statements of 1024 Locomotive.

"You'd better find (Wen: find) a law firm and an accounting firm. It's okay now, but in the future, the box office in other places may..." Jiang Zhiqiang pointed out.

The video tape market and the out-of-town box office market are naturally within their grasp.

Don't talk about guarantees, and don't talk about the demise of the film! People like businessmen have never been shameless.

Besides, the promise issued at that time was that "the local big screen will disappear forever", which did not include video tapes and foreign markets.

In 1986, video tapes had become a part of the post-production revenue of Hollywood movies, and they were becoming more and more important. Although this market share has not surpassed box office revenue, it was extremely profitable. In two years, the video tape market will dominate Hollywood movies in one fell swoop.

Half of the country, Hollywood is making a lot of money from the rental business.

The video tape market potential in Japan, South Korea and Hong Kong Island is also huge. This year, many video tape stores and screening rooms have popped up on Hong Kong Island.

Thinking about the "video parlors" that blossomed all over the mainland in later generations and the booming development of video tapes, it seems that moral integrity can be thrown aside and the bottom line can be lowered a little lower.

Anyway, apart from caring about a woman's chastity, Wu Xiaozu didn't care much about his own moral integrity.

Antai does not have the strength to distribute movies in other markets, and the video tape market does not have the ability to pry this piece of cake apart. It can only try to do it slowly.

At the very least, Wu Xiaozu knew that Jiang Zhiqiang was contacting Southeast Asian film companies and was planning to sell the overseas distribution of "The Butcher on a Rainy Night". As for the video market... we have to wait and see.

Hong Kong's film and video tape sharing mechanism has not yet been perfected, the piracy problem cannot be solved, and the video tape copyright cannot be sold for much money.

unless--

Wu Xiaozu felt that his integrity could be loosened a little more, and the bottom line should be ignored. The bottom line should always be left to others to see, otherwise how could he maintain his integrity?

Of course, all of these can only be continued if you have a certain level of strength. Otherwise, even if Wu Xiaozu puts the bottom line in the Mariana Trench, it will still be useless. Because the bottom line is too thin and can easily be penetrated!



"Azu, after all, you are also the boss of a film company sitting here with me, talking about millions of dollars in business..."

Jiang Zhiqiang dusted off the cigarette ashes and looked around with a look of disdain on his face, "How about being so frugal when you use your bedroom as an office? There isn't even an employee who can make tea or pour water. You have to ask A Tao to act as a tea waiter..."

Qiu Litao was smiling and helping to make tea and pour water.

"Also, can you please buy a mobile phone? Every time I look for you, the two waiters below you think I am a diner who is ordering food, and the voices are so messed up that I can't hear clearly!

Can you imagine how embarrassing it would be for me to stand on the street with my mobile phone and yell? Come on, I am the boss who manages dozens of people. I, Second Young Master Jiang, don’t want to face me? Street boy..."

Qiu Litao laughed at the side.

Looking around at the simple environment in front of him, he felt the same. 1024 Locomotive Studio must be the simplest film company he had ever seen.

Especially when "The Butcher on a Rainy Night" was a hit at the box office. No matter how you look at it, Wu Xiaozu can be regarded as a new multi-millionaire director. He has made millions, but the office does not know how to improve.

Speaking well means being frugal. Telling the truth... But in a money-based society like Hong Kong Island, frugality has never been a concern.

"Oh, I think everything is pretty good. Take a look at it. The company's sign is shining with golden light. How dazzling it is? There is also a sofa in the living room, a desk, a dining table next to it, a bedroom, and a bathroom. You can play mahjong here if you want.

There are mahjong tiles for you to play. You have everything you need to eat, drink, have sex, and sleep. What's wrong with that?" Wu Xiaozu pointed around and didn't take it seriously. "No one in Lisboa is so careful..."

"Pick! Do you know that the movie companies run by the young and Dangerous guys in Temple Street are more formal than yours? Playing cards? I might as well take a speedboat to Macau. At least I don't have to wait for someone to play in the middle of the game.

Make room and let people walk over to use the toilet! You really want to play cards, why don't I treat you?"

Jiang Zhiqiang shook his head speechlessly, threw his mobile phone to Wu Xiaozu, and said loudly, "I am going to buy a new mobile phone recently, and I will give you this one. I will refund the phone card, and you can buy a new one."

Okay. It saves me every time I call you and order an extra portion of tomato scrambled eggs. I don’t know if I should top it up?"

"Twenty-five and a half yuan without adding base."

"Where's Kadi?"

"Thirty-six dollars and eight."

"Where's the morning?"

"Twelve dollars and two!" Wu Xiaozu smiled and extended his hand, "I didn't add the base in the morning. Why don't you order food in the morning next time, Jiang Sheng? You can save a lot of money in the long run..."

"..."

Jiang Zhiqiang was speechless, "I really don't know whether you are a director or a cook."

"You can be my cook." Wu Xiaozu smiled and raised the big brother in his hand. He felt like this thing could kill someone. "In short, I like things that cost nothing."

"I'll beat your lungs out." Jiang Zhiqiang, who doesn't like to use swear words, couldn't help but cursed, "What the hell are you doing? Are women too lazy to spend money?"

"Then Mr. Jiang, do you have any women who don't need money to introduce to me?" Wu Xiaozu joked.

Jiang Zhiqiang laughed, nodded to Wu Xiaozu, and said jokingly, "You guys like second-hand goods so much, be careful that women are second-hand goods too."

Wu Xiaozu shook his finger with a serious look on his face, "If it is a second-hand product, it must be a second-hand product that I bought. In this case, I will definitely collect it. Otherwise, it will be someone else's product that I borrow and use. In that case,

It doesn’t matter if it’s not second-hand goods.”

Jiang Zhiqiang was very happy when he heard this.

In fact, Wu Xiaozu really wasn't pretending to be poor, he was really poor.

The total box office share is 1.5 million, and the initial share is about 500,000. The remaining 1 million has not even been seen. It was originally a month, but depending on the situation, it will be settled in 1986.

Of course, Wu Xiaozu did not suspect that Jiang Zhiqiang was greedy for the money. If Jiang Zhiqiang was so short-sighted, he could only blame Wu Xiaozu for being short-sighted, and no one else could blame him.

Do you really think Director Wu doesn’t want to stand in front of the large floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking the whole Hong Kong, with a cigar in his mouth on one side and a hookah on the bottom of the leather chair? The desk is wider than the double bed...

Unfortunately, this is just a thought.

When the first 500,000 yuan was received, Wu Xiaozu wanted to give 100,000 yuan to Qiu Litao as a film investment, and also used 200,000 yuan to fund the filming of his own film. Only 200,000 yuan was left, and he had to keep it for emergency use. How could he still have money?

Come to buy a company?

Wu Xiaozu originally received 200,000 yuan in red envelopes, but this was private income and was not included in the company's accounts. This was also the case with Feicheng, Luo Dong, and Su Liyao. At the very least, personal income and company profits must be clearly distinguished, right?

Many people run companies and cannot even separate personal interests from company interests. Let me ask you, do you think your family has a tax system? Even if personal interests and company interests belong to the same person, the distinction must be made clearly.

After all, Wu Xiaozu opened a serious film company, not a farmhouse.

Little did he know that the scale and structure of his serious film company were not as big as a farmhouse!

Moreover, for Wu Xiaozu, the office and the company are all side effects. If a director or a filmmaker wants to be truly respected by the industry and investors, the biggest capital is good works and good results.

This industry is the most realistic. If you can make money, people will praise you. If you can't make money, people will step on you.

Works are the greatest confidence!

Cheng Long, today's film superstar, also went through the stage of being despised by Gu Long. No matter whether he is lustful or not, no one can deny his efforts and achievements.

Having said that, is there a problem with the character of a few female stars in the entertainment industry?

Does it count?

Does it count?

Qi!

No matter what others think, Wu Xiaozu felt righteously and awe-inspiring.

How can a seductress talk about playing? It’s better to drip wax oil on the pointer tart! A green pond like the fort needs to be opened and maintained frequently.

Regarding this, Wu Xiaozu belatedly (gan) doubtfully (cui) rejected Jiang Zhiqiang's suggestion to go to SH Road to have a party, and drove to attend the movie screening of Gao Lihong and Wang Zuran.

"Jiang Sheng, I know SH Street well..." Looking at the red chicken leaving, Feicheng moved closer to Jiang Zhiqiang to flatter him.

"You drive and lead the way." After Jiang Zhiqiang said this, he threw the MR2 key to Feicheng.

A group of people set off towards SH Street in a mighty manner. They turned their grief and anger into hardness!
