Chapter 207 Vision of film and television base
Lived up to Boss Chen’s expectation, Boss Qiu came to him this time, really came to talk about cooperation, and it was just a cooperation project, which surprised and surprised us, Boss Chen.
To his surprise, he was very interested in the other party's cooperation, but to his surprise, he didn't expect that Boss Qiu would find him, and the time was so fast.
Song City, an ancient building modeled after the ancient Song Dynasty, is in Xiangjiang, which is changing rapidly and the economy is becoming more and more developed. Qiu Degen wants to let people experience and understand the life of the ancients.
In other words, another form of playground.
In the early years, Boss Qiu had to give up his dream in the film industry for career development, and he gave up. But Boss Qiu did not leave the entertainment industry. On the contrary, he has increased his investment in the entertainment industry over the years.
Taking Liyuan Amusement Park as an example, Qiu’s entertainment company, driven by the Xiangjiang economy, has also increased its revenue year by year, and compared with other industries, the entertainment industry often returns faster.
The investment is small and the effect is quick. An amusement park has just been put into construction in the first half of the year, and it will be profitable in the second half of the year, and the profit is extremely high, and the return of funds is also very fast.
So, with the continuous development of Xiangjiang's economy and people getting more and more money, Boss Qiu believes that the entertainment industry will have more room for development in the future, so he naturally stepped up investment in the entertainment industry.
Qiu Degen approached Boss Chen today and offered to cooperate. Apart from Chen Yi being rich, Qiu Degen, like everyone else, was very optimistic about Chen Yi's future development.
If it was a year ago, Boss Qiu’s move can be described as supporting, supporting the younger generation, which is something that many bigwigs like to do very much.
Now, it is purely for the beginning of cooperation with Boss Chen, and to establish a foundation for the future cooperation between the two parties.
Like the Liyuan Amusement Park, although it has a lot of profit, but based on the value of the two of them, this profit is obviously a bit insignificant.
Even if Songcheng can make money in the future, the money is not worth the two people's attention. If it can be used to create a basis for cooperation, let alone one Songcheng, even ten Songcheng Qiu bosses are willing to spend it.
Chen Yi is very interested in building Song City, and is willing to cooperate with the boss Qiu in front of him, but after Boss Qiu explained the scale of Song City and the investment funds, he couldn't help shaking his head in disappointment Come.
It's not that Song Cheng's investment is too large, and he can't afford it.
On the contrary, the Song City mentioned by Boss Qiu, not to mention the investment amount, made Chen Yi very dissatisfied with the land area alone.
The scale is too small, so small that he has no desire to participate at all.
Seeing Boss Chen shaking his head, Boss Qiu frowned slightly. He didn't understand why Chen Yi, who was so excited just now, suddenly shook his head in disappointment.
After thinking about it, Boss Qiu thought that Song Cheng had invested too much money, and Chen Yi couldn't come up with so much money, so he said, "Xiao Yi, do you think the investment is too much? If so, then no Relationship, I can take the lead here."
It’s no wonder that Qiu Degen came up with such an idea. Although the newspaper said that Chen Yi had made billions in the oil market, Chen Yi’s previous big bargain hunting had involved more than three or four billion Hong Kong dollars.
Those who are interested will naturally think that the money that Boss Chen made in the oil market has almost been exhausted.
However, Chen Yi didn't let Boss Qiu's thoughts continue to spread, but shook his head again and said, "Uncle Qiu, I shook my head not because I thought Song Cheng invested too much, but because I felt that the investment was too small."
"Too small?" Qiu Degen was taken aback when he heard this.
You must know that the Song City in Boss Qiu’s plan is all imitating the buildings of the Song Dynasty. There are shops, banks, theaters, temples, gardens, etc., and the starting point is to create an ancient society.
Moreover, the most important thing is that the investment amount of the entire Song City has initially reached 15 million Hong Kong dollars. You must know that this is the beginning of the 1970s, and spending more than 10 million to build an ancient building is not courageous for most people.
However, at this moment, she was dismissed as too young.
It's all over his head to show off his wealth
That's right, in Boss Qiu's view, Chen Yi's reaction was to show off his wealth to him nakedly, which made the old man feel a little unhappy.
Seeing Boss Qiu's face was dark and silent, Chen Yi knew that the other party must have misunderstood him, so he quickly explained: "Uncle Qiu, don't get me wrong, I didn't mean that."
Boss Qiu said in a blunt tone: "Then explain to me carefully, what does your boy mean by that? Is he looking down on you, Uncle Qiu, or thinking that you are rich now and despise this little investment."
Chen Yi saw that he left without shaking his sleeves, and was willing to listen to his explanation, so he was not in a hurry, "Uncle Qiu, you must have seen the purpose of building Song City. In recent years, Xiangjiang's economic development has affected the entertainment industry. Drive it?"
"Xiangjiang's entertainment industry, taking the playground as an example, Uncle Qiu's Liyuan is currently the largest playground in Xiangjiang, but for the entire entertainment industry, the playground can only be regarded as a small part.
The main profits of the entertainment industry are still concentrated in film and television. For example, movies, TV dramas, and theaters are the major players in the entertainment industry. "
"The profits that the playground can bring are actually very limited. Even if Songcheng is built, it is just another form of playground. Xiangjiang has a population of several million, so it is not a lot, not a lot.
According to what you said, Uncle Qiu, in my opinion, Songcheng, in addition to bringing you a sense of novelty and joy for a while at the beginning, once the novelty passes, people's enthusiasm will definitely decrease. "
"Of course, even if Song City only leaves everyone with a temporary novelty, I believe that Uncle Qiu's investment will not lose money, and if he is lucky, he will make a lot of money."
Hearing this, Qiu Degen's face gradually improved, but his mind became more and more confused. He just wanted to say something, but he heard Chen Yi's voice continued, so he listened seriously,
"According to Uncle Qiu's positioning of Song City, this can only make money for a while, but it is somewhat difficult to make a steady stream of money."
"I heard people say, Uncle Qiu, you used to have the title of movie king in the New Territories. You must be very interested in movies. Since you want to build a Song City, why didn't Uncle Qiu consider expanding the size of Song City? , directly build a film and television base.”
"Xiangjiang Films, from the 1950s to 1960s, has now completely formed a sunrise industry. Now Xiangjiang Films has learned from Hollywood and from the island countries. Whether it is technology, talents, or even channels, it has already been equipped. Potential to become the Hollywood of the East."
"However, technology and talents can only be regarded as soft power. The real hardware depends on the film and television base. How big is the film and television base in Hollywood, how big is the film and television base of Xiangjiang Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest..."
