Chapter two hundred and thirty sixth which pot is not opened
"Mr. Qiao..." Shao Yifu looked at Qiao Feng with complicated eyes. He didn't expect that things would reverse so quickly. Brother Long and Rat, who were still half dead in the first three days, actually started to rise from the fourth day, and the increase rate rose sharply.
He also called Yuhan to complain, but now he thinks it's really funny. Who wrote the script by Brother Long and Brother Rat? It's Qiao Feng, has Qiao Feng failed? No.
Why did I think Qiao Feng might fail this time before?
Shao Yifu was full of thoughts, both self-deprecating and happy. After all, Brother Long and Rat had a high box office, and he still had half of the money he earned.
Although his family is big and his business is big, he can't just take it lightly if he wants to have a profit return of tens of millions of dollars or even higher.
To be honest, he has only opened a film company for so many years and has been in charge of wireless for so many years, but his net worth is only a few billion.
If Brother Long and Brother Rat could sell over 100 million US dollars like Qiao Feng's previous movies in the United States, plus the global box office, he would be almost one-tenth of his total net worth.
However, thinking about the previous agreement with Qiao Feng, after Brother Long and Brother Rat sold their own Shaw Brothers, their Shaw Brothers will change hands and take charge of Qiao Feng.
This made Shao Yifu, who had dominated the film industry for decades, feel very uncomfortable. Looking at Qiao Feng in front of him, his eyes were a little sour.
It seems like something particularly important in life has been snatched away.
"Mr. Shao, look at when will Wang Yuxian's artist contract be transferred to my company?" Qiao Feng didn't know how unpleasant Shao Yifu felt. His purpose was to come today for the goddess Xian.
Shao Yifu said before that if Qiao Feng could make Wang Yuxian famous, then let Wang Yuxian pass the opportunity to Qiao Feng’s agency. Qiao Feng is here to find Shao Yifu to fulfill the agreement.
"At any time." Shao Yifu thought that Qiao Feng came for Shaw Brothers Cinema, but he didn't expect that what Qiao Feng said was about Wang Yuxian. Shao Yifu was stunned for a moment and nodded and said.
"Okay, I'll have someone come to change the contract later." Qiao Feng nodded with satisfaction, and then turned to ask: "Mr. Shao, don't know what director Li Hanxiang is busy with recently?"
After hearing Qiao Feng’s question, Shao Yifu’s face turned a little dark and said unhappily: “Mr. Qiao is going to ask Li Hanxiang himself.”
Looking at Shao Yifu's dark face, Qiao Feng was shocked and cursed himself, "It's really a pot that doesn't open to any pot."
Li Hanxiang is almost a taboo now with Shao Yifu.
As a great director of Shaw Brothers, Li Hanxiang is considered a famous brand of Shaw Brothers, just like Hu Jinquan and Zhang Che.
But what is different from Li Hanxiang and Zhang Che and Hu Jinquan is that this person is more capable of making trouble.
From joining Shaw Brothers in 506 to 606 years to 606 years, Li Hanxiang established himself as a super leader at that time.
However, after his success and fame, Li Hanxiang abandoned Shaw Brothers and ran away from Taiwan. With the support of Cathay Pacific and Federal Company, he formed his own Guolian Film Company.
At that time, the establishment of the League of Nations had a huge impact. Films such as Liang Zhu and the Seven Fairies received huge responses and success after they were released at that time.
But the good times did not last long. In 1964, Cathay Pacific's high-level aircraft crashed, which shocked the Asian film industry. The League of Nations also fell into a financial crisis due to conflicts with Cathay Pacific and federal companies.
After a few years of hardships, Li Hanxiang finally returned to Hong Kong in 1971 and then found his old boss Shaw Brothers.
However, Shao Yifu, who has always been stingy and revenge, unexpectedly, did not care about Li Hanxiang's previous betrayal and accepted the great director again.
After returning to Shaw Brothers, Li Hanxiang quickly made a big warlord with high box office and high reputation. Later, because the film market was not good, Li Hanxiang began to get involved in Fengyue films and make money for Shaw Brothers to make salty and wet films.
In 1975, he returned to the classical epic drama route, planned the collection of Queen Mother's film "The Conquering the Country", "The Blood in Yingtai", and the masterpiece "The Golden Powder of the Southern Dynasty" that describes the misty rain and the sad songs of the businesswomen in Jiangnan in the Qinhuai River.
In 1976, he completed "Yingtai Crying Blood" and was not as good as pornographic films in Taiwan, so he continued to shoot the collection of romantic sketches.
Later, due to physical reasons, Li Hanxiang went to the United States for heart disease surgery, and then went north to visit relatives and friends in the mainland, which touched his opportunity to go to the mainland for filming.
Later, he renewed his contract with Shaw Brothers, but Li Hanxiang renewed his contract with Shaw Brothers to film works such as "Xu Laohu and White Widow" and "Wu Song", and also established the New Kunlun Film Company in the mainland, filming two magnificent historical dramas: The Burning of the Old Summer Palace and the Down-Screen Rule, and also allowed Liang Jiahui to win the Best Actor Award for the Academy Award.
Then the contract between Li Hanxiang and Shaw Brothers was considered dead in name only. This person would die in the mainland and not come out. Even if he returned to Hong Kong, he would prepare for the next historical drama in the "Tongzhi Restoration", "Reform and Reform", and "Eight-Nation Alliance".
It would be strange if Shao Yifu was not angry if he signed a contract with Shaw Brothers, but ran back to the mainland to open a company to do his own business.
Not to mention, this is because Shao Yifu, who has always been stingy, has forgiven Li Hanxiang for once.
Maybe, when Shao Yifu thought of Li Hanxiang, he secretly scolded himself for being blind.
Qiao Feng asked Shao Yifu and asked Li Hanxiang what he really was about which pot he didn't open.
Qiao Feng had already caused trouble to Shao Yifu when Li Hanxiang's affairs, but Qiao Feng did not forget to cause trouble to Shao Yifu again when he left.
He stood up and said goodbye. When he walked to the door, he suddenly turned around and looked at Shao Yifu, and said with a smile: 'By the way, Mr. Shao, Brother Long and Brother Rat's box office trend is good. Look, when will we sign this theater transfer contract?"
................
Just in Hong Kong, his colleagues in Southeast Asia's film industry were shocked by Qiao Feng's two movies were released in North America at the same time, and the box office was very good. The box office of Fengyue Pretty Beauty is approaching $100 million. Brothers and Brothers of Dragons won nearly $20 million in the first week of release, and after three days of release in the second week, another even more amazing news shocked Hong Kong and Southeast Asian films.
Shaw Brothers Cinema has changed hands.
New owner Qiao Feng.
For a moment, everyone's eyes turned to Hong Kong, and to the building located in the old Taoist Wodao that had only returned to Qiao Feng two years ago.
In that building is Qiao Feng’s agency Oriental DreamWorks.
Countless media reporters were blocking downstairs of Oriental Dream Works to interview Qiao Feng, and many media reporters ran to Shaw Brothers and went to wireless to interview Shao Yifu and Fang Yihua.
But without exception, both Qiao Feng and Shao Yifu and Fang Yihua refused any interviews.
