Finally, Zhao Hong left with Qiu Degen's thanks. Of course, the theater situation was also stable. These four theaters were originally leased to Shaw Brothers, but they were withdrawn from the Shaw Theater chain two days ago because Shaw Brothers can no longer use them.

There are so many theaters. Although they film more and more movies, the screening cycle has become shorter. Many movies are only for a few days. There are too many shoddy films and there is nothing new. So Run Run Shaw returned the theaters to Yau Degen.

, the Shaw Theater chain originally had 21 theaters. If these four were returned, there would only be 17 theaters. But compared to their current situation, it is enough, and any more would be wasted.

Qiu Degen didn't know what to do with the returned theaters! These were his four best theaters, and he had been reluctant to buy them, so he thought of one person, that is Run Run Shaw, both of whom were originally from China.

Ningbo, so the two have a very close relationship. Shaw Brothers needs theaters to make movies, so he rented them to Shaw more than ten years ago. Now these theaters are sold to Zhao Hong easily. Anyway, he doesn't know how to do it.

Those who are into movies don’t feel bad after selling it.

In the afternoon, Zhao Hong continued to be with Zhao Yazhi. The two had just entered the couple mode. It was like three autumns since they had not seen each other for one day. In the evening, Zhao Hong sent her home early, and Zhao Hong himself went home afterwards. Today

The two of them didn't do anything. They just chatted about love together. The main reason was that Zhao Yazhi was still in poor health. As for why, you know.

In the evening, Zhao Hong talked about the theater with her sister Zhao Yingying, and told her to ask people from DreamWorks Cinemas to acquire Qiu Degen's four theaters. He also called Run Run Shaw's landline, and Zhao Hong communicated with him for a while.

After that, he said that he was going to invite him to have afternoon tea at the Peninsula Hotel at noon tomorrow. I wonder if he had time, so Run Run Shaw readily agreed.

Now Zhao Hong is not in a hurry to make a movie. He plans to wait for the Iron Lady to visit China before starting to shoot his debut film. Mainly during this period, other things consume his energy. If he shoots forcibly, he will not be able to surpass the original work. This is right.

These works are disrespectful.

But it's not that he didn't make any preparations. He had already thought about filming that movie, which was "Hachi", which tells the story: Waiting for ten years for a love is a lifetime for a dog.

This is a very touching true story about a university professor who adopted a little Akita dog and named him "Hachiko". Every day after that, Hachiko would take the professor to the station in the morning and wait for the professor to go home with him in the evening. Unfortunately

Unfortunately, the professor died of illness and never returned to the station. However, Hachiko still waited at the station on time for the next 10 years until he finally died.

After Hachiko's death, later generations erected a statue of him beside the flower pond where he sat every day, and he still sits there waiting for his master to come back.

Zhao Hong originally planned to write a novel after a while, mainly because he had not recovered from the last one, but due to this situation, he had no choice but to write a novel first. Only the novel has gained a certain reputation. As a new director, he

Only works can attract attention.

This is a novel of about 100,000 words. Zhao Hong wants to express the emotions between the dog and the professor in delicate language through text description. This is Zhao Hong's strength. After he finishes writing, he plans to serialize it when he starts filming the movie.

, it can not only promote the movie but also increase the sales of Meng Jiaren magazine, which really kills two birds with one stone. He must have written more than 100,000 words, and he should be able to write more than 200,000 words.

Zhao Hong went to work early the next day and drove towards the Peninsula Hotel at ten o'clock.

Zhao Hong had booked a private room early. He entered the hotel and walked directly to the private room. It was only eleven o'clock now, and there was still an hour before the appointed time. Since he met Qiu Degen yesterday, everyone was already here when he came.

, although he was not late, he still came from behind. He was the elder, so this was always not good, so today he was an hour early because he didn't believe that he could still arrive after Run Run Shaw.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Hong arrived later. When he entered the room, he saw Run Run Shao in the private room. Zhao Hong quickly stepped forward to say hello, "Uncle Six, I'm sorry to keep you waiting for so long." Zhao Hong was now facing this group of people.

The old guy was almost speechless. He was not on time at all! Is it so difficult to surpass him even once?

"Hong Zai, just sit across from me. This is the first time we have met! I have heard your name countless times. I really want to meet this young talent like you, so I came in advance.

It's time!" He was very happy with Zhao Hong's invitation. Originally, he wanted to take some time to meet Zhao Hong. Now that Zhao Hong is working in the same industry as him, everyone still needs to have a certain degree of respect.

In contact, it is very necessary for both parties to reach a certain tacit understanding in order to achieve healthy competition. If there is no tacit understanding, they will inevitably become incompatible and poach each other, and it will be bad for both parties in the end.

"Uncle Six, you are the famous one! You have grown up listening to your legendary stories since I was a child. Even my old man rarely convinces others, but he admires you from the bottom of his heart." Zhao Hong also expressed his admiration for you.

Run Run Shao praised him a lot. As for whether the old man admired him, Zhao Hong didn't know, but he probably admired him a little.

"I can't compare to you young people. You have become richer than me in just a few years. You can't compare!" Although Run Run Shaw heard Zhao Hong say that Mr. Zhao admired him, he was very happy, but he didn't feel anything at all.

When it was revealed, everyone praised Zhao Hong.

The two of them flattered each other for more than ten minutes when they met. They both felt that the other was difficult to deal with. They were both foxes who had been pretending to be idle for thousands of years. Therefore, they became more frank with each other after that, knowing that flattery and clichés were meaningless. Run Run Shaw talked about his past.

After some things, Zhao Hong discovered that his life was really exciting. Shao Yuxuan, Shao Yifu's father, was the owner of the famous Jintaichang Pigment Company in old Shanghai. He was engaged in various businesses such as dyeing and finance. In 1910, he established a large-scale "

"Jintaichang" Pigment Company was not only well-managed and prosperous in business, but also sympathized with and supported Sun Yat-sen's revolutionary activities, and was quite active in Shanghai's industrial and commercial circles at that time.

When Run Run Shao was still in middle school, the owner of the Shanghai Theater "Laughing Stage" was unable to repay his debts, so he "sold off" the "Laughing Stage". Shao Yuxuan sent his eldest son Shao Zuiweng, a lawyer, to take over the theater.

In 1923, the Shaw family was in decline, with only one house and the "Laughing Stage" theater remaining among all the family properties. The Shaw brothers resolutely sold the house and moved their family into the "Laughing Stage".

In the following days, Run Run Shaw kept in contact with film editors. It can be said that he spent the first half of his life traveling around for movies. In 1931, Run Run Shaw went to the United States to buy audio film equipment. On the way, the ship hit a reef and sank. Fortunately, he died.

, Run Run Shaw who fell into the water held a small piece of wooden sampan and drifted on the sea for a night before he was finally rescued and returned. He bought the "talking machine" he needed from Hollywood in the United States. Zhao Hong felt that he was born for movies.

I have been engaged in film-related things my whole life.

It can be said that Run Run Shaw's love for movies is as much as anyone else's. It's just that people get old one day, and there are times when their thoughts can't keep up with the trend. Sometimes stubbornness can make people succeed, but it can also make people fail, just like him.

It’s the same as not wanting to change the current shooting system.

In this way, the two of them chatted until the food they ordered was on the table. They continued to chat while eating. Zhao Hong was surprised that Mr. Shao's life was so rich, and it was richer than Grandpa Zhao Hong's experience. Zhao Hong gained a lot of life from it.

Experience, no wonder there is a saying that an elder in a family is like a treasure. Run Run Shaw also lamented that Zhao Hong had quite a wealth of knowledge. No matter what he said, Zhao Hong knew everything, even the big and small things during the Republic of China.

Sometimes he knows more than someone who has experienced it personally, which is really strange.
