Chapter 313 Cai Songlin's Ambition

This was the first time Li Xuan and Cai Songlin met. Although the thin and tall man in front of him was very elegant, Li Xuan did not dare to underestimate him.

Can a guy who can open such a large private company in Taiwan have a simple background? Li Xuan is even more involved in Hong Kong, where the environment is slightly better.

However, I heard that Cai Songlin and Xiang family have a good relationship.

"Oh, Mr. Cai, I've been long-lasting!" Li Xuan gently shook it, then reached out and smiled, "Hurry, please come in and sit down, the humble house is simple."

"Haha, then we'll disturb you."

The group followed into his room. Li Guoxin deliberately slowed down and walked at the end. After several people walked in, she whispered to Li Xuan: "Mr. Li, I called the scholars in the morning to discuss cooperation, and then casually mentioned that you were going to Taiwan in the afternoon. Unexpectedly, Boss Cai knew about it, he insisted on..."

"It's okay, anyway, I'll take time to visit him in Taipei these days if he doesn't come." Li Xuan waved his hand indifferently and asked in a low voice: "By the way, are they coming to Kaohsiung just to meet me?"

Li Guoxin was slightly stunned when she heard this, and then replied: "I heard that Boss Cai also went to see several bosses from Xinyi City in the morning, but the talk was not successful."

Not a success? After hearing what Li Guoxin said, Li Xuan nodded slowly, and felt a little in his heart.

Princess Jin behind Xinyi City has been in Taiwan for several years, and the foundation in the previous article has been laid almost. After the Hong Kong stock market crash, Lei Juekun probably has to establish his own theater chain in Taiwan. Only then will he not be too stupid to run to cooperate with scholars, which will offend others and not be of much benefit.

The two of them did not delay their conversation. They walked a few steps and entered the room. As soon as Li Xuan called out a few people to sit down, Zhong Chuhong also walked out of the bedroom and greeted everyone. Then Cai Songlin smiled and said, "Cai really envied Mr. Li. She can always be with her beauty, Miss Zhong."

"Oh? Why do you think of envy? Mr. Cai and his wife are also deeply in love with each other?" Li Xuan replied slowly.

"Haha, I am a beauty, just a yellow-faced woman." Cai Songlin shook her head and looked at Li Xuan and sighed: "Mr. Li is really a master of his generation. He has built such a large theater in Hong Kong in just five years."

Seeing Zhong Chuhong pouring tea for everyone with the kettle in the hotel, Li Xuan smiled and said, "Who is this great man? I remember when Mr. Zou Wenhuai started Jiahe, he had only 500,000 Hong Kong dollars in his hand. Now it seems that I am not as good as him."

"No, no, if Mr. Li returns to more than ten years ago, he may not be worse than Mr. Zou." Cai Songlin complimented and then smiled: "Mr. Li, your "Heroic Reality" is very optimistic about this Golden Horse Award."

Li Xuan felt a little moved and smiled, "Ha, it's just a small fight, it's not as good as the New Art City."

This Golden Horse Awards "The True Heroes" continued the glory of the Hong Kong Film Awards and received 8 nominations. However, just like "The True Heroes" encountered "The True Heroes" in Hong Kong, it encountered the magical film "The Wrong Car" filmed by the Taiwan Branch of the New Art City in Taiwan.

This movie "Hit the Wrong Car" was screened in Taiwan for four months, setting a super high box office of more than NT$40 million. And it is an art film that the judges of these film awards like very much, so it won 10 nominations, which is much higher than the award-winning of "The True Color of Heroes".

"In terms of business, "The Wrong Car" and "The True Hero" may be even in the art, but..." Cai Songlin shrugged and continued: "But the Hong Kong box office of "The Wrong Car" is only more than 4 million Hong Kong dollars, which means that the box office of "The True Hero" in Hong Kong and Taiwan has only half of the Hong Kong box office of "The True Hero". As businessmen, of course, we know which side to choose."

Li Xuan smiled and said, "It seems that Mr. Cai is very optimistic about Hong Kong movies. By the way, I heard that Mr. Cai is interested in entering the Hong Kong movie market?"

"Um."

Cai Songlin nodded without any concealment and replied: "I was optimistic about Hong Kong movies before the scholar was founded. When Deng Guangrong returned to Hong Kong to open a company, I also made some efforts from behind."

"Mr. Cai is really a keen eye for heroes. Mr. Deng's Darong is the top film company in Hong Kong." Li Xuan nodded and agreed.

Li Xuan is right, Darong Company's status in Hong Kong is indeed not low.

The film companies that came from Hong Kong in the 1970s, except for several film companies supported by theaters and Darong, almost all remained silent. Siyuan, Heping and Luo Wei, the three famous film companies in the 1970s, had almost no good works to ask about in the 1980s. As for film companies like Binbin that went bankrupt due to poor management, there were more in Hong Kong.

Xuan Yuan, a wholly-owned film company that was once under Darong, has also been the leader in the sole proprietorship film company, but since Li Xuan established his own theater chain, Darong has become one of the leaders in the sole proprietorship film company.

"Haha, Guangrong is still a small fight compared to Mr. Li." Cai Songlin smiled complacently and continued: "Actually, I had to do it. Taiwanese movies have poor inherent conditions, so I had to provide funds to Hong Kong for them to make movies, and then take them back to Taiwan to boost the local market. In recent years, Hong Kong movies have become more and more prosperous and have become more and more influential. I don't know how many times better than Taiwanese movies."

Li Xuan narrowed his eyes and did not answer immediately. He had read some Hong Kong entertainment books. One of the big reasons why Hong Kong movies were lonely in later generations was that the market was chaotic, and the quality of the movies was generally declining. The reason for the chaotic movies was the influx of a large amount of hot money in Taiwan.

It seems that Cai Songlin is probably one of the hot money investors in later generations, but Li Xuan doesn't care about his hot money.

"Taiwanese movies have gradually improved since 1982." Li Xuan praised it in a roundabout way.

"Haha, Mr. Li, jokingly, what about the new wave of Taiwanese movies, now we film investors are just taking it as a joke." Cai Songlin waved her hand helplessly and suddenly said seriously: "I believe Mr. Li should also know the strength of our scholars. The theaters under our scholars have accounted for 30% of the entire Taipei and 20% of Taichung, and are now preparing to enter Tainan. My goal in the next five years is that scholars must account for at least 30% of the overall film market in Taiwan in the future and become the real private sector."

“…”

Li Xuan was stunned when he heard this magnificent blueprint, and then sighed: "Mr. Cai, you really have lofty ambitions!"

Cai Songlin haha ​​and continued, "There is nothing to do with ambition, and it depends on action. So, nowadays, film sources, especially good film sources, have become the top priority for our scholars' development. However, in this situation, film sources are actually a bit difficult. There are too few film sources in Taiwan, and many films are produced by film companies like China Film and Television, which have their own distribution channels. Therefore, investing in Hong Kong movies or buying films directly has become the only choice for us publishers. So, Mr. Li, now your company cooperates with our scholars, we will definitely give you the most reasonable price."

"Haha, I believe Mr. Cai is right." After hearing Cai Songlin's words, Li Xuan had a better impression of it and reached out and said, "Then I wish us a happy future cooperation!"

"Happy cooperation!" Cai Songlin also turned around and smiled.

The two big bosses talked and laughed and set the tone of cooperation. As for the remaining specific matters, they naturally had to discuss and agree on the agreement. After the serious business, the two big bosses also started to chat. Cai Songlin, who started from scratch, is a very talkative person and speaks very quickly. When she talks, she even dances with her hands and feet, which is very different from his previous gentle and elegant image.

However, because Li Xuan and the others had just got off the plane and were going to participate in the Golden Horse Awards at night, Cai Songlin said goodbye and left without disturbing for a long time, and Li Guoxin also followed Cai Songlin and the others to negotiate specific cooperation matters.

As for the Golden Horse Awards at night, there is not much that needs to be detailed, but the Golden Horse host Tianniu surprised Li Xuan. She is an actress that Li Xuan likes very much. Sima Sanniang in the TV series "A Chinese Ghost Story" impressed him very deeply. But now it seems that Tianniu is not as good as a mother.

There are also some surprises for Li Xuan at this Golden Horse Awards. "Hit the Wrong Car" and "The True Hero", which were the most popular awards, actually lost to the unknown "The Story of Xiao Bi" in the best drama. Zhou Runfa, who was originally also "Hero's True Hero", and Sun Yue, who was the most popular in "Hit the True Hero", but in the end, Di Long won the Best Actor with the role of "Hao Brother".

As for Li Xuan, who won the best original movie music and the best movie episode, he also lost to the aggressive "Hit the Wrong Car", which made the people in New Art City very happy.

After the Golden Horse Awards ended, Li Xuan, who had originally planned to go to Taipei, also saved some trips because of Cai Songlin's visit, and followed everyone back to Hong Kong the next day.

After two days of rest at home, this guy hurriedly gathered his troops to film "God of Gambling". (To be continued. Please search for astronomy, the novel is better, updated and faster!)
