Hong Kong Entertainment’s Life Simulator

When Zhao Donghuai finished talking about slowly and stably acquiring Hong Kong Electric's shares and arranged the follow-up matters, as soon as he returned to Zhao's Pictures, the phone rang.

When he grabbed it, he heard Lin Zhengying's excited words, "Sheng Zhao, it's explosive. Yesterday Hurricane Rescue 1 landed on a thousand screens at A Mei's house. The box office on the first day was more than 2.6 million U.S. dollars. The word-of-mouth exploded and it was everywhere. Good reviews.”

"Although it has only been released for one day, this result...this result..."

With A Ying's excitement, Zhao Donghuai was speechless.

It’s just over 2.6 million dollars a day, what’s there to be excited about? Well, it’s worth getting excited. The Hong Kong dollar has almost lost 20 million on the first day.

To the end of its consecutive screenings in Hong Kong, Rescue 1 only accumulated HK$31 million at the box office. A-Mei broke the prefix 2 in one day.

After waiting for a while to communicate with Lin Zhengying, he received another call from Zhang Guorong. The purpose of the call was simple. Warner urged him to fly to his sister's house quickly. This didn't matter. Ah Rong's scene in "The Flying Tiger" had already been filmed. It's over.

In Flying Tiger, Ah Wing is just a supporting character.

He was currently singing and recording the As Long As single record with Wa Jai. He asked Ah Wing to go to Ah Mei and exchanged some information.

He began to think about the overall trend of this news. It made more than 2.6 million dollars on the first day. It was Warner who used the I Want singer and the Asian mysterious singer to star in the action movie as a gimmick, and also boasted that this was Asia's second Bruce Lee action movie. Released on a large scale.

They don't take long to operate either.

There were a few days of advertising bombing before the release. After all, the end of March is the off-season for movies.

On various box office rankings in the Amei area, very few films released in March rank at the top, so Warner is taking a gamble.

Now it seems that the result of the bet is not bad. Ah Rong, a new singer who has sold more than 1 million single albums, still has a certain market appeal.

Showing on a thousand screens, what’s the concept? Currently, the average ticket price of A-Mei is only $3.5 a ticket, which is even cheaper in the off-season. With a one-day run, the film has a box office of more than 2.6 million, and more than 700,000 people spent the whole day to buy tickets to watch Hurricane Rescue.

Asian superstars, popular singers, hit singles, and Bruce Lee's second gimmick, they win by tricking the audience into entering the cinema. After all, just listening to the songs, you can't tell whether they are sung by Chinese or white people.

As for the word-of-mouth explosion? That's totally what it should be. Amei is still stuck in the turn-based era where you hit me and I'll hit you back. It would be strange if Hurricane Rescue, an epoch-making new genre more than 20 years later, fails to shock the audience.

Hurricane Rescue is originally a Hollywood industry. It absorbs the essence of action scenes from all over the world, including Hong Kong Island, and innovates the results...

As for the opening scene, which is rather slow and full of text, on the contrary, the pair of sisters may not be a big selling point. They pay great attention to the feeling of being tired from logging.

"Today and Saturday, the word-of-mouth explosion can continue to spread through the announcement. It will not be difficult to exceed yesterday's 2.6 million dollars. Tomorrow weekend...if the box office reaches 10 million in the first weekend, it will really take off."

Based on the $10 million opening weekend, its final box office may exceed $50 million.

Don't think this number is small. In the whole year of 1984, only four of Amei's domestic box office hits exceeded 100 million U.S. dollars. With a box office of 70 million U.S. dollars, Amei ranked 10th in the box office among all girls.

Last year in 1983, there were only two A-Mei movies that broke the $100 million mark.

Once you do the calculation, you will know how powerful it is!

Cannonball Racer, starring Cheng Long, grossed 72 million U.S. dollars at the local box office, already ranking sixth on the 1981 A-Mei box office list!

Cannonball Run ranked sixth in the annual vote, why do you still say that it was Cheng Long's failure in Hollywood? He is a supporting role in it, with no personal performance characteristics, and a one-man role. He has no position and commercial value to carry the box office.

As long as "The Rescue" grosses Ah Mei's total box office of 50 million dollars, it will definitely mean that Ah Ying has successfully landed in Hollywood. This whole film is performed by him alone. He is so cool that he has no friends, and it is an action movie that is amazing.

As long as the box office exceeds 50 million, Warner will make a lot of money. Even if it has to pay taxes and distribute it to the theaters, at least 20 million will fall into Warner's pocket.

They only bought it out for five million dollars.

If hurricane rescue performs a small miracle and can hit 60 million dollars,...

It's not uncommon for Hollywood to offer millions of dollars to hire A-ying to film movies. He will suddenly overtake in a corner and suppress Aaron's limelight.

Fortunately, Mr. Zhao has A Ying's 4 film contracts in hand, and the remuneration was agreed upon at the beginning, so he can do whatever he wants. No, Debao is already a subsidiary of Zhao Donghuai, and he is one of his own.

"A $5 million sale is a loss, but is there any hope of selling the video for $10 million?"

………………

On Sunday, Guan Jiahui suddenly opened up.

Zhao Donghuai answered the new call as if he was doing handheld photography, and got the latest news. Yesterday and Saturday, Hurricane Rescue 1 sold 4.7 million U.S. dollars, jumping from 260 to 470... which means that more than one million people went to the cinema on Saturday.

It's really going to explode!

On Sunday, it once again made 4.8 million U.S. dollars at the box office, with a total box office of 12.17 million U.S. dollars in the first weekend. This week's A-Mei is the weekly box office champion!

$12 million is the highest of the week, but it’s normal, in the off-season!

This era is not yet the era where A-mei is popular all over the world with her special effects. It was really in the 1990s that Hollywood was considered unrivaled in the world and was killing Hong Kong movies.

By the 1990s, A-Mei would not be able to make it into the box office charts unless she earned $100 million locally.

………………

Deborah Films.

Lin Zhengying had just driven to the parking lot under the office building. What he saw was that the people on the left and right in the parking lot were all envious and shocked, waving to him or bending down to call Uncle Ying... A Ying was still rubbing her head when she saw Yuan Biao came running over and said excitedly, "Uncle Ying, I heard from Brother Sanmao that Warner Bros. wants one million dollars to film a movie with you."

"Fuck, Brother Long is not worth so much. The first weekend sales were more than 12 million dollars, which is equivalent to a box office of more than 90 million Hong Kong dollars!"

"You're crazy, you really want to continue Brother Xiao Long's glory! Do we, Mr. Zombie, still shoot? We have just set up the stage and are ready to start shooting."

A Ying also blushed with excitement, 1 million knives, 7.8 million Hong Kong dollars in salary? This is truly invincible.

The last film, Zhao Sheng, asked for 100,000 Hong Kong dollars, which was considered a premium, not only for the lead actor's salary, but also for every finger.

After getting excited, he smiled and shook his head, "Everything about the pay is fictitious. Zhao Sheng is the only one in the world who can make good handheld action movies."

"Even if you listen to the conditions in Hollywood, I may not be the protagonist if I go there. But when the news comes back, I feel that my personal brand of beer will be able to sell a lot."

"Perhaps I can learn from Afa and easily pick up one or two hundred thousand."

In this era, Cheng Long has failed in trying to enter Hollywood. If he suddenly emerges, it will really... greatly stimulate the vanity of Hong Kong Islanders? Then, follow the trend of Ah Fa and others and sell beer to make money, which is much more than the salary.

He was also someone who followed Brother Xiao Long to see the peak back then, so he still had a good eye for things.

This is indeed the case.

Today, when the Kowloon Daily News, more than a dozen junior newspapers, ATV, etc. began to promote the news of hurricane rescue in North America...

The whole Hong Kong people seemed to be stimulated. In the past two days, Mr. Zhao specially asked for urgent processing of Lam Zhengying's strong beer, which was sold out, with more than 3 million cans sold a day.

Director Zhao Bai picked up more than 3 million Hong Kong dollars, A Ying got more than 300,000, and the mainland settled another one million Hong Kong dollars. Pengcheng's strong beer branch is under construction at a rapid pace in Pengcheng.

Jianlib Baopengcheng branch factory, and even the black tea and green tea in preparation, are also planning to settle in Pengcheng. This is still an era when Pengcheng's second-line defense is under construction... Outsiders do not need to check the border security permit when going to Pengcheng.

………………

Time entered April 1984. On the 2nd, when the last scene of Lonely Tiger was finished, Zhao Donghuai grabbed the loudspeaker and said, "We're done, let's wrap up the banquet in the evening. Everyone is welcome, and we'll have enough food and wine!"

There were all kinds of cheers and excitement inside and outside the crew.

Zhao Donghuai wiped his sweat. It was not easy. He signed Hua Zai on January 16 and gave him the script, so that Hua Zai could start preparing for the drama. The filming started on February 17. Hua had been preparing for a month.

It's a very simple action movie, and the action and fighting scenes were shot very quickly. As for Ah Hua and Zhou Huimin's literary scenes, it took an extra ten or twenty days to finish the work.

A film takes more than 40 days to shoot, which is definitely much faster than in Hollywood, but for the Hong Kong crew, it is definitely not fast.

The new drama has finished filming and is entering the post-production process? The Jianlibao products that have been stocked with 10 million cans can also be advertised. Advertising Jianlibao is also a two-way boost.

When he ordered the crew to collect things in an orderly manner, Hua Zai came over excitedly, "Boss, Uncle Ying's drama has been too popular recently."

"Our new play..."

Hua Zai was a little unsteady and walked a little unsteadily, mainly because he didn't dare to think too much, for fear that he would think too much. Who let Lin Zhengying's hurricane rescue and Amei's explosive effect be too wild?

It's Li Guoxing, who has been working on Hurricane Landing Bend, but got stuck and is still researching it. As soon as the news of A Mei's explosion in this drama came out, things went smoothly over there because many ghost guys in Bendwan complained and protested. , what if I can’t watch A-mei’s explosive movie?

Calculating it this way, Director Zhao lost money when he sold it out for 20 million Hong Kong dollars.

But if you lose money last time, you can make it back on Lonely Flying Tiger.

A-ying is so wild, and A-hua also knows how to be a lonely tiger. The fighting scenes, action combat and even the editing mode with him as the absolute protagonist are all in the same vein as Hurricane Rescue.

Zhao Donghuai smiled and patted Hua Zai on the shoulder, "If you want to follow Ah Ying's path of becoming popular, you need to support her new songs. The hurricane can explode in Ah Mei, and Ah Rong is indispensable."

If Zhang Guorong's single suddenly became a big hit and landed on the Billboard charts, I Want was so wild and brainwashing that it attracted a large number of fans. Warner's green-haired Rose would never buy him out.

There are more than one million people who spend money to buy singles. How many free fans do you think are brainwashed by listening to the songs?

In the early days, fans went to see it, and the word-of-mouth exploded and the feeling of shock was unparalleled, so they took advantage of the trend to promote it more... Hua Zai wanted to imitate this way, and the song must be powerful, but As Long As itself is powerful enough.

Until now, Hua Zai has not finished recording, and he is helpless. He is far inferior to Ah Rong's English skills! The two are too far apart at this stage.

Liu Dehua nodded hurriedly, "I won't eat or sleep, and I will try to practice well as soon as possible."

Zhao Donghuai smiled and said a few words before letting him go. Given the current situation, there is no need to rely on new songs to brainwash the release of "The Flying Tiger". As long as Zhang Guorong stands up, he is really a good match in it this time.

Ah Wing's current status in the music industry has overshadowed Tan Wing Lin and Xu Guanjie's limelight. If Lin Zhengying can attract box office, there will be no need to worry about no one watching the new drama.

The new song is mainly for the promotion of Amei’s family.

As soon as Hua Zai left, Qiu Shuzhen came over with a towel and water, "Boss, you've been working so hard so far. I've learned a few massage techniques. Do you want me to massage it for you in the car later?"

Director Zhao was speechless. No wonder Jia Hui kept complaining in private that she was too foxy.

But A-Zhen is not old enough to drive yet, so massages and the like can't stop her enthusiasm for learning skills.

Let’s train first.

………………

On the 3rd, in a tenement building on Hong Kong Island, when the song of people gradually waking up from a century-old sleep sounded, Li Zhi, who was busy on the balcony, ran to the living room. The TV station replayed the classic old movie.

Li Zhi's favorite is the hero Fearless.

Li Zhi, who is already 23 years old, immigrated to Hong Kong Island in 1981. He worked as a salesperson and had dreams of becoming a star. He went to Xinyi City for an interview and was rejected because his dress and temperament were too tacky.

In anger, she ran back to Shanghai to study English and take the TOEFL exam. Last year, she went to college in Amei. She is still in Hong Kong Island in early April because the song "I Want" became a hit. At first, many fans only knew that she was an Asian singer and a white man. I'm not sure if he's a yellow man.

Until Warner Bros. promoted it and announced that I Want, an action movie starring the original singer and Asian superstar, would take over from Bruce Lee's action movie and be released on a large scale.

It attracted many fans to watch the movie, and they were shocked!

Shocked to the point of being stunned!

Whether it's action routines or gunfight routines, they are all Hollywood's masterpieces that have been summarized for 10 or 20 years and continuously absorbed the best from all over the world. Suddenly Director Zhao copied them and released them 20 years ahead of schedule?

The sensational shock effect is really strong.

If you had released Hurricane Rescue in the 1990s, the action and gunfight scenes would not have been that shocking. In this era, they have been making progress and evolving.

It wasn't enough in 1984, it was far from enough.

A new wave of fans appeared spontaneously. Many fans appeared in the university where Li Zhi studied. When they learned that this was a Hong Kong star or singer, they collected air tickets and holidays to get her to come back and get autographs...

She wasn't sure and didn't know where to go, but if someone offered free air tickets, she would give it a try. She wouldn't be in a hurry to do anything when she came back, and would rest first and overcome the jet lag.

After An Xin sat down in front of the TV and listened to the opening song, the ATV screen suddenly switched. It was Kwan Ka-wai, Ho Qing, and Wu Huizhong, who were all dressed beautifully and were already leading the fashion style of women in Hong Kong. They walked out in the same uniform, one can per person. Jianlibao.

“No gifts will be accepted during the holidays this year, only Jianlibao!”

cut……

Zhang Guorong also appeared together with Andy Lau, and the advertisement slogan added Jianlibao.

Li Zhi was speechless.

Even though she thought Zhang Guorong and Andy Lau were really handsome, she had already listened to such advertisements many times before she woke up from her sleep today.

I heard it a few times while I was busy washing.

Is ATV bought by Jianlibao? ? Holding back her complaints, she finished watching an episode of Heroes Fearless before tidying up and going out. Then she saw a newspaper stall not far away.

Many people are queuing up to buy Jianlibao.

The best-selling ones are those of Zhang Guorong and Lin Zhengying. Now those two are superstars who have entered the white world and gained a certain degree of fame! This is a great thing that will boost the aspirations of the Chinese people.

The queue gradually dwindled, and many boxes of Jianlibao were quite empty. Li Zhicai walked over and said with a smile, "Uncle He, give me a can of Jianlibao."

There used to be a lot of beer ads on newsstands, but at this stage Li Zhi generally doesn't drink, so Jianlibao doesn't matter, it's just a carbonated drink.

The price tag was RMB 18, the same price as Coca-Cola. When Li Zhi took it over, opened the can and took a sip, he was surprised and said, "It tastes pretty good."

Uncle He smiled all over his face, "That's not true. I've drank a few cans myself. It's another big-selling product. That Mr. Zhao is really talented..."

You still earn 10 cents from selling a can, but small profits but quick turnover. In the past, they sold cigarettes, water, lighters, etc., and the number of people who bought from them was just average. The transaction volume in a day was not much. After all, although Hong Kong Island Popular newsstand culture.

But more and more young people still like to go to clean stores like Parknshop, Wellcome Supermarket, and 711 convenience stores to buy these.

It’s different now. When buying beer and buying Jianlibao, many people often buy a box and earn more than 2 yuan per box. Selling ten boxes a day is more than 20 yuan, which adds up to 600 to 700 yuan in a month.

A newsstand that only sells 10 boxes a day is a sign of poor sales. Buy beer and Jianlibao, a newspaper, a lighter and so on...

In his emotion, Li Zhi's heart moved, Zhao Sheng? Mr. Zhao has a lot of gossip and tidbits, but I heard that there was once a girl who pretended to be a waiter and sneaked into the hurricane rescue celebration banquet and recommended herself, but she was rejected? ?

I don’t know if this news is true or false.

……………………

At Debao Film Company, Lin Zhengying had prepared everything, planning to gather the crew to film in Wanwan, and officially opened the curtain of Mr. Zombie, when she saw Hong Yinbao walking in a hurry from outside, followed by Wan's Brother Wu from the Bamboo Society.

Before Hong Qinbao could say anything, Brother Wu came over with a big smile, "Uncle Ying, it's been a while since we last saw each other. The situation is very different!"

"I didn't expect you to become popular even in Amei."

Lin Zhengying felt sad when she thought about the past. After a few simple words of courtesy, Brother Wu revealed his intention, "This time you go to Wanwan to film, everything is easy to talk about, I will take care of it. By the way, your strong beer and Jianlibao are also selling well." fire."

"Want to go over to Wanwan?"

"If I can buy it, I will first ask for 10 million cans of each kind, yours will be 10 million cans, and Leslie's 10 million cans."

Lin Zhengying, "Ah..."

Hong Yinbao was shocked, "A Ying's 10 million cans?"

Grass is a kind of plant. The original contract was that no matter in Hong Kong or Ben, for every can sold, one cent would be paid. When the 20 million cans were sold, Lin Zhengying and Zhang Guorong would share half of it, and each would receive HK$1 million. , lost, what kind of filming is this?

No, it’s not filming. Even if it’s a good show, Brother Wu won’t come all the way to Hong Kong Island to find Ah Ying.

Brother Wu puffed away the smoke, "You don't know. Originally, Li Guoxing's second-generation operation Hurricane was released and was made difficult for a long time. The movie also hacked us. Now that Amei has exploded, the situation is completely different."

"Since it hit theaters, this drama has been on its way to catching up and surpassing various records."

"Uncle Ying in the movie is really..."

For a moment, other than being stunned, he didn't know how to describe A Ying in the hurricane, the strongest dad on the face of the earth? There is no problem with this title at this stage.

At this point, Brother Wu complained, "Uncle Ying, what other zombie dramas are you filming during the Republic of China? Just continue filming the second one."

A Ying laughed awkwardly, "I can't even make it even if I want to. Who else besides Zhao Sheng has the ability to make a second part of this kind of movie?"

"By the way, let me help you ask, make an appointment with Zhao Sheng? Strong beer and Jianlibao are Zhao Sheng's factories."

Brother Wu nodded. Of course he came here for money, and it was clean money. This was the most endearing thing. If this works well and everyone gets rich together, and can pick up money from two drinks, it will be a joy.

Who would think about making things difficult for Zhao Shengzhao in the future? Their Bamboo Society is not just a decoration.

Brother Wu once again complained, "Fuck, that guy named Li from the Tianhe Gang has been chasing me for months and has been biting him to no end. Do you really think he can be lawless just because he has connections?"

"I really want to kill him with one shot!"

"It would have been nice if Zhao Sheng had taken a picture of him running away at the terminal. When the time comes, he can mix it into the behind-the-scenes footage and make a sensation all over the world. He should run to Africa to escape the limelight."

Aying, "..."

A Ying knew that there really was that scene and she kept it.

After a while, when Hong Qianbao watched Lin Zhengying and Brother Wu disappear together to visit Zhao Sheng, his heart became hot.

Ah Ying's drama was a big hit, and it was so exciting to pick up money. You can pocket 1 million Hong Kong dollars in one transaction. This is still a single transaction, Haojiang, and the island country.

Originally, Hurricane Rescue was also launched in theaters in the island country under the operation of Li Guoxing. In the early stage, the box office was not bad. Without Cheng Long to join, the Hong Kong male star really... relied on Zhang Guorong's fan appeal to develop well.

It's not that the action scenes of "Hurricane" can't satisfy the movie-watching appetite of the islanders, but when everyone hears about Lin Zhengying, Zhang Guorong, etc. and is not a fan of them, they don't bother to watch it.

It is a group of pure fans.

Amei's box office exploded, and the island country also exploded immediately. Massive passers-by went to watch the movie, and the box office directly increased by several levels.

In this era, Amei's family is the banner and leader in the capital world. Also, the Cantonese albums composed by Guan Jiahui, He Qing, and Hu Huizhong have begun to sell well. If you don't understand Cantonese, you can listen to the melody.

"After filming Owl and Dumbo, I'm helping Aaron with the Spanish drama, and I have to get the second part of the Five Lucky Stars out right away!"

Lao Hong found that although he was famous, the speed of making money was really unmatched by Zhang Guorong and A Ying. Both of them currently surpassed Cheng Long in income.

Bringing goods, it’s so profitable!

Beer and Jianlibao are both fast-selling products. If one person drinks one can a day, it is like lying on a mountain of gold.

………………

Zhao Films.

When Zhao Donghuai met Zhushe Lao Wu, he was quite happy after hearing the other party's request for 20 million cans of goods, so he took the money.

Of course, if he sends this thing to Wanwan, he won't be able to earn one Hong Kong dollar per can. That's really unrealistic. The taxation and retail sales system are all in the hands of others. He can earn at most 50 cents per can.

The cut in half is not bad, 20 million cans at a time, which adds up to 10 million Hong Kong dollars, and the mainland also earns 6 million Hong Kong dollars.

After the negotiation with Brother Wu was completed, he was also very happy. He left a 30% deposit and walked away. He also generously said that as long as it was not a movie like Ajie who did not give up his mainland identity and starred in other movies, Zhushe could help more.

Zhao Donghuai didn't care about this. As soon as it was clear, almost all the people in Lao Wu's group went to Green Island to repair the earth.

After seeing off Lao Wu, A Ying and others, he received a report from part-time secretary Qiu Shuzhen, saying that Li Guoxing of Meiya Entertainment was here.

Entering the office, Li Sheng bowed decisively and laughed, "Sheng Zhao, I'm here to give you money. I won 20 million for the hurricane rescue. I've made a lot of money."

"I want 100 million cans of strong beer and Jianlibao. How about it? A-ying and Leslie will take half, and A-fa and Miss Guan will take the rest."

Zhao Donghuai, "..."

Li Guoxing simply said, "Selling this at the entrance of theater chains such as Star, Matai and South Korea is a routine operation. Which theater doesn't sell Coke? Follow the east wind of hurricane rescue and bring in a wave of goods."

"Even if it doesn't sell out right away, isn't there still Zhao Sheng, your next play?"

100 million cans, Zhao Donghuai received 50 million.

Factories in the Mainland have received HKD 30 million!

Li Guoxing was originally cooperating with theaters from various countries to sell Hong Kong films, but now it's better. After negotiating the blockbuster, he can sell some drinks and beer, and he can make a lot of money.

When it comes to advertising, hasn’t Zhao Donghuai been pushing it? The advertising piles of Kowloon Daily and ATV advertisements cannot be sold in other areas, but commercials and posters of Lam Ching-ying, Cheung Kok-wing, Kwan, Ho, Wu and other women are available.

Just take advantage of the trend and spread it in various countries and regions, and just send some money to the TV stations.

Then put up more advertising posters in theaters, and slowly sell them while taking advantage of the movie boom. In those places, strong beer and Jianlibao drinks cannot be as brilliant and domineering as in Hong Kong Island, but you can just accumulate small brands and make your way.

There are so many theaters in Xingma, Taiwan, and South Korea. Li Guoxing, who is crooked, no longer asks for help. He heard the news before coming and Zhushe came to steal money, but he couldn't do anything.

Zhao Donghuai laughed, "If you want to talk about this, I won't argue with you about trivial matters."

………………

Sanshui.

Strong Beer and Jianlibao are operating at full capacity these days, with three shifts running 24 hours a day to produce and stock up on supplies. However, they are still a bit stretched.

When the new order of 120 million cans came in, not to mention the big bosses from Foshan, there were also big bosses from the provincial level.

"Beautiful, so beautiful!"

"We coordinated breweries, beverage factories, and this can production line across the province to provide me with strong beer and Jianlibao."

In an era when the foreign exchange that a province in eastern Guangdong can control in a year is only one to two hundred million dollars, Strong Beer and Jianlibao have really become monkeys in the sky.

……………

Opposite the ATV building, Hong Qinbao, Cheng Long, Lin Zhengying, Yuan Biao and others were sitting like students. Zhao Donghuai opened Jianlibao, took a sip, and said with a smile, "Sanmao, you actually took the initiative to let Aying out..."

Hong Qinbao had a complicated expression, "A-ying is going to become an international superstar, so it would be better to adopt a cooperation model. For example, Zhao Sheng, if you invest 51%, and A-ying gets 49%, then you don't have to be beaten by me in Debao."

"After ten or twenty years of friendship, I don't want A Ying to have trouble with me in the future."

Li Guoxing ordered 100 million cans of strong beer and Jianlibao, including 25 million cans of Lin Zhengying's version.

After Lao Wu from Wanwan Bamboo Society, A Ying once again picked up 2.5 million.

As soon as the news came out, Hong Qinbao was stimulated and came to talk about the matter. Originally, Aying had been eating with him and was a member of the Hong family class. Now it is better to switch to a cooperative company model.

He has cooperated with Jiahe for so many years, and now he comes out to play with Zhao Sheng. Isn't it because the money is not shared equally.

Ah Ying's income from selling beer and Jianlibao has nothing to do with Hong Yinbao. However, as in Mr. Zombie, there are plans for Ah Ying to film other movies, and she will only get paid. The other sales bonuses have nothing to do with Ah Ying.

This is not bad.

It’s not that Hong Qinbao doesn’t want to earn more, but Lin Zhengying has become so popular that strictly speaking, he can’t afford the salary...

Hollywood is paying 1 million for razor blades, but this is 7.8 million Hong Kong dollars, what is Lao Hong going to do? This movie, Mr. Zombie, is okay, as the friendship of ten or twenty years is there.

Lin Zhengying didn't mention the remuneration, and she still charged according to the previous standards.

What about the lower part? What about the lower part?

He had just had a conflict with Jiahe over this, and he really didn't want to have a feud with Aying, who had been friends for ten or twenty years, over money.

Moreover, after being stimulated, Hong Yinbao's ambitions also skyrocketed, and he was confident that he would make a lot of money with his next Lucky Star drama.

Zhao Donghuai nodded, "The joint venture is easy to talk about and can be established at any time. Do you, Mr. Zombie, still film?"

Lin Zhengying nodded hurriedly, "Pai, I'm going to go to Wanwan after we've discussed these things."

Zhao Donghuai said, "Let's talk about it after we finish filming. You can just make a phone call for something like this. As for running over together?"

Several celebrities looked at Cheng Long together. Cheng Long touched the back of his head and said, "Sheng Zhao, I also want to join the endorsement series for beer and Jianlibao."

Zhao Donghuai, "..."

For a moment, he thought of the countless achievements of Aaron's endorsements... one by one died.

Bring him in. It would be great to bring him in to sell goods in the island country. I guess after Li Guoxing heard this, he would come over and ask for tens of millions of cans of Aaron beer and Jianlibao.

"No problem, you are welcome to join."

After agreeing with a smile, Cheng Long was overjoyed. He smiled beamingly and thanked him repeatedly, while Hong Yinbao hesitated for a few seconds and then asked, "Sheng Zhao, we brothers have also saved some money over the years, and we don't need it for filming..." "

"What do you think we should do if we want to preserve value? We don't have much knowledge, and we had no clue before. I hope Zhao Sheng can give me some advice."

Director Zhao's ability to make money and the level of making money can really make many tycoons look at him. He is now a partner and spokesperson of Zhao's subsidiary. Last time, he helped Director Zhao cooperate with Huang Langwei in acting.

Only then did he have the guts to ask for advice.

Zhao Donghuai was stunned for a moment and thought, "There are many ways to preserve the value of money, such as buying a house."

Thinking of this, his eyes lit up again, and he thought of a show-off operation, "However, if you are ambitious, you can try to partner with me to build a large-scale comprehensive supermarket."

Supermarket chains are certainly a good business.

Carrefour, Wal-Mart, Metro, etc., which one is not a prominent chain group in the world? It is not easy for ordinary people to break into this market.

But Zhao Donghuai can teach these guys a show routine.

If they do it, it will be absolutely popular and can squeeze all their peers to death, that is the Fat Donglai model.

Even in the 2020s, Fat Donglai from Henan Province was invincible against all his peers in Xushi and Xinxiang. Then he couldn't get out and would be squeezed to death in supermarkets wherever he went, regardless of foreign brands such as Carrefour and Wal-Mart. , or other mainland supermarket brands.

If he dares to start a fight with Fat Donglai, he will almost be beaten to death easily.

All the guys banded together and trapped him to death in Xu City and Xinxiang.

If this group of big stars use their wealth to build a comprehensive supermarket and adopt the Fat Dong model, they will definitely do it. On Hong Kong Island, with their influence, once they have conquered the supermarket industry... Then Zhao Donghuai will not be able to sell goods in the future. I can only choose the newspaper guy.

If anyone is willing, Director Zhao can pay for the shares. He just made another 60 million Hong Kong dollars by relying on Power Beer and Jianlibao.

Hong Yinbao was astonished, "Opening a supermarket? It's a good business, but we can't beat PARKnSHOP Wellcome, right?"

Director Zhao smiled meaningfully, "As long as you follow the ideas I provided, you will definitely be able to do it."

Hong Qinbao was overjoyed and said, "Okay, Zhao Sheng is willing to support me, and I will directly take out all my capital."

Cheng Longdu said excitedly, "Me too, me too."

Everyone is in high spirits. Who doesn’t like getting rich?

At this moment, Lin Zhengying suddenly touched her head, "Wait a minute, Mr. Zhao, Watsons and PARKnSHOP are the properties of Mr. Li, Mr. Li's cash cows, and Wellcome is owned by Jardine Matheson. We are really going against him." ?”

Hong Qinbao and Cheng Long were stunned for a moment, and Zhao Donghuai was stunned, and then he was overjoyed, "Then it's more serious. If you are afraid, you can withdraw."

He was already buying HK Electric, and he would definitely compete with Ka Shing. Wouldn't it be reasonable to paralyze the opponent's cash cow?

It's just a serious business war and legal competition.

If it wasn't for Ah Ying to remind him, he would have forgotten that Watsons and Parknshop, which account for nearly half of Hong Kong's retail market, are properties of Ka Shing, a subsidiary of Hutchison Whampoa and the Watsons Group. But don't think subsidiaries sound bad, they are really cash cows.

The second largest Wellcome is an old foreign company, Jardine's!

Putting aside everything else, if Jianlibao and Strong Beer want to enter the market, they have to pay at least 30 cents in profits. Then you know how much money PARKnSHOP has taken from the retail side of various industries by opening stores all over Hong Kong and supplying goods to millions of people. .

No wonder Mr. Li will be able to spend about 3 billion Hong Kong dollars next year to acquire more than 30% of HK Electric's shares. However, if he makes more money, there will be more places for Jiacheng to spend money. Although he can join forces with Jardine Matheson to dominate the world in the supermarket industry, Wal-Mart and Carrefour cannot stand up, and other brands that come in will die one by one.

They all rely on the advantages of local snakes.

But Zhao Donghuai is now one of the local snakes in Hong Kong. He just does it. Who is afraid of whom? Even if a fight breaks out, Li will impose pressure on people to block the channel card policy. Do you think the media group in the hands of Director Zhao is just a decoration?

Channel providers and suppliers, at worst, spend money to buy from the mainland, won’t they be able to buy people’s livelihood resources?

A comprehensive supermarket, with fruits, fresh vegetables and daily necessities on the first and second floors, as well as some clothing, shoes, hats, electrical appliances, watches and other brand stores, and some hotels and restaurants on the fourth and fifth floors. In later generations, it was almost everywhere at the county level. This kind of large comprehensive supermarket.

Lin Zhengying then smiled and said, "Since the boss is confident, I will definitely follow."

Only then did Hong Qinbao express his stance, "Follow!"

Cheng Long hesitated, but looked around and followed. Aaron felt that Director Zhao dared to lead them to fight Superman, which was a bit too high-end and classy. They were just actors and actresses... How could they be on the show?

But thinking about Director Zhao's brilliant record since he started his career, he was so fierce in taking the lead as the boss, so he gritted his teeth and followed suit.

Fighting with Li Chao Ren, it scares me just thinking about it!

But why do I still feel a little excited and agitated when I think about it again? If nothing else, Zou Sheng and He Sheng wouldn't dare to have such courage, right?

If this thing is done, then Aaron will no longer be just an actor. On the other hand, Hong Qianbao and Lin Zhengying didn't think about it that much. It wasn't that they didn't think that far ahead, but that their style of doing things was somewhat different from Aaron's.

Zhao Donghuai was not afraid that these guys would spend too much money and not be able to divide the shares. If they had less money, they would rent a store, and if they had more money, they would buy a store... In April 1984, he bought real estate and it was definitely not a loss.

You can try one first.

Fat Donglai’s model is amazing. The only time he left Xu City was to open a branch in Xinxiang. The store opened among three big brands: Dennis, Wal-Mart, and Century Lianhua. In just a few years, all three big brands died.

Why is he so stupid? The boss is a cruel person.

In the 2020s, there were two leading supermarket chains in prefecture-level cities, with more than 30 chain stores. Which boss was not making a lot of money? He couldn't. The profit chain was worth billions a year, but he only had 3 million in annual income. , the rest... are all divided among employees, management and customers!

This is a ruthless person who betrays his own class!

The salary of Fat Dong Lai's supermarket employees is basically twice the standard of other peers and even many outside industries. Holiday benefits are comparable to civil servants. It is stipulated that all middle and high-level employees can only work 40 hours a week and are not allowed to work overtime after 6 p.m. If caught, they will be punished once money.

Others are fined for being late for work and fined for getting off work on time, but he is fined for working overtime.

After get off work, the mobile phone number you use when you are on duty must be deactivated, and you will be fined if you can get through it. This is to allow employees to really rest and relax after get off work, and not be used by the boss or middle and senior management for additional instructions.

I have to take my family on a trip every month, and each person takes an average of more than 100 days off per year.

wait wait wait.

This is the rule that happens in private companies, can you believe it? ? The Internet is full of demons, 996 overwork deaths are common, and hot searches are made from time to time. Many employees in Pangdonglai are more comfortable than civil servants.

When he recruits workers, it's easy. When he hires a hundred people, one or two thousand applicants come, all of whom are basic.

A lot of the money earned by the boss is distributed to the middle and lower levels, and there are many other requirements for employees. Let me just talk about one, the Haidilao service model that has swept the whole of China. It was copied from Pangdong, or it is a incomplete version, full version. Don't dare to copy.

You buy home appliances and mobile phones there, and if they break after using them for a while, you can call the supermarket directly, and the supermarket will help you with after-sales repairs, from home appliances to clothing to department stores. As long as you buy it, if it breaks, it will be repaired, exchanged, etc. can be achieved relatively easily.

You can try lipsticks and cosmetics on site.

What other purchasing agents are there... If you go to the supermarket and find that you don't have the product you want, leave a phone number and write it down in the register, and Fat Donglai will help you purchase it separately, basically without any purchasing agency fees.

If you are not satisfied, you can return the product and get your money back. Basically, there is no difficulty, and they provide serious service.

Some people buy gold jewelry when the price of gold is high. After a few days, the price of gold drops. If they feel unhappy, they can still run to get back the price difference.

90% of the goods in it are priced the same as other supermarkets, but the service bunker does not charge a premium. This is why Haidilao dare not copy the full version.

It can be said that various employee benefits are exploding, customers’ shopping experience is exploding, and prices are affordable while ensuring quality and quantity.

Fat Donglai's businessmen from all over China who were able to show off his model pinned him to death in Xu City and were the only ones to share the helm in Xinxiang.

Wherever he goes, his colleagues will die!

This group of big stars did not make money by opening supermarkets, but they were able to seize sales channels and pave the way for bringing goods.

With this kind of homework to copy, Mr. Zhao is really confident that he can defeat the likes of PARKnSHOP and show off the retail industry in Hong Kong. 711 cannot do it. 711 is open 24 hours a day, and serious supermarkets are not that late.

Even Li Chaoren can't stop him! Do you think Lao Li is willing to share all the money earned from cash cows in supermarkets to employees and ordinary shopping people? If he couldn't do it, he was dead.

As for some people taking advantage of policies such as maintenance reimbursement and compensation... I'm sorry, Director Zhao's Pan-Asia Group and temporary workers are not decorations.

The media group is not just a decoration. He just borrowed the influence of Hong Yanbao, Cheng Long and Lam Zhengying in this city to create a gimmick that has long been famous and has given back to the society and the people of Hong Kong to engage in charity operations. There is no such thing as this group of guys Influence, if you want to open such a comprehensive supermarket, you will have a lot of trouble!

But there is no problem in giving back to society and doing charity business.
