Chapter 325: Master Lei was sold? He still has to help Chen Wen count the money!
"Mr. Chen is right. I really can't afford so much money."
"But after what happened at Wharf, I have truly seen what Mr. Chen is capable of."
"Since Mr. Chen is willing to visit me, Li Chaoren, I think what I, Li Chaoren, currently have should be able to satisfy Mr. Chen's appetite. Otherwise, Mr. Chen would not do such a useless thing."
Li Chaoren said directly with a smile on his face.
Just as Li Chaoren said, through the incident at Hutchison Whampoa, he truly witnessed Chen Wen's abilities, and he became even more aware that Chen Wen was a person who would not do anything without a profit.
At this time, he appeared in Li Chaoren's villa and talked to Li Chaoren about Hutchison Whampoa.
There is only one explanation, that is, Chen Wen wanted to get what he wanted from Li Chaoren.
And this thing is exactly what Chen Wen wanted to exchange for Hutchison Whampoa.
"Li Chaoren is really a smart man."
"In that case, we, the wise ones, won't speak in jargon."
"After acquiring HK Electric, Li Chaoren must have at least tens of billions in his hands, right? Hutchison Whampoa will add another 10 billion. In addition to these, I also want..."
Chen Wen leaned over and spoke directly into Li Chaoren's ear.
After hearing what Chen Wen said, Li Chaoren's eyes flashed with a hint of disbelief.
Obviously, just from his expression, it can be seen that Li Chaoren does not think that the last condition proposed by Chen Wen is worth three or four billion yuan.
For a moment, Li Chaoren suspected that there was something wrong with his ears.
"Mr. Chen, are you kidding me?"
Li Chaoren said directly with a hint of disbelief.
Hearing this, Chen Wen just smiled slightly: "I have laid out the conditions here. Whether you want it or not depends on Mr. Li's sincerity."
"Mr. Chen has made this offer. I'm sure any businessman would not refuse it."
"Besides, I am Li Chaoren!"
"As long as you, Mr. Chen, don't regret it."
Li Chaoren said directly with a smile on his face.
Just because of Hutchison Whampoa, Li Chaoren's attitude towards Chen Wen changed 180 degrees.
You know, the scale of Hutchison Whampoa is almost equivalent to that of two or three Hong Kong Electric Corporations.
In this case, even if Li Chaoren could not get HK Electric, he would naturally no longer regard Chen Wen as an enemy.
This scene made Hong Xiaolian and Jimmy look confused. They really couldn't understand what else could impress Chen Wen except money.
……
Three days later.
The box office of "The Lucky Stars" released by Golden Harvest Films experienced a sharp drop.
That’s right! Despite the film’s copy being stolen, the film’s box office was not affected at all.
It is no exaggeration to say that the box office in the first two days was very popular.
But by the third day, the box office began to plummet.
There is no doubt that this is closely related to the recently emerging New Hongxing Films.
Chen Wen’s Star Film Production Company released "God of Gamblers" at the same time.
As soon as the movie was released, it immediately captured all the film markets in Hong Kong Island.
It was the appearance of this movie that led to the complete collapse of Golden Harvest Cinemas.
Shaw Brothers Film Studio cinema chain.
"Mr. Lei! This movie is a huge hit at the box office."
"No movie box office record in Hong Kong has ever been this high. You are simply amazing!"
The secretary beside Mr. Lei started to flatter him.
While speaking, he attributed all the credit to Mr. Lei.
It can be said that this has long been the consistent style of Mr. Lei and his secretary.
The most important thing is that the actor starring in this movie is none other than the extra that Chen Wen took away from Shaw Brothers some time ago.
Chen Wen and Lei Gongzi also made a bet together.
If this extra can be made into a movie star, then Mr. Lei will be willing to manage the company for Chen Wen.
Now it seems that Mr. Lei has to do it even if he doesn't want to!
However, Mr. Lei did not seem unhappy at all at that time. Instead, he was in high spirits, as if he had proved his own worth.
"Of course. I've already told you that there is room for growth in the Hong Kong film market."
"Let alone anything else, the fact that these people working in real estate are flocking into the film industry is enough to prove the prospects of the film market."
"With my movie 'Best Partner' leading the way, won't the subsequent movies be better than the last one?"
In front of the secretary, Mr. Lei praised himself without any hesitation.
I wish I could attribute the prosperity of the entire Hong Kong film market to him alone.
The secretary next to him also saw through it but didn't say anything.
He just stood beside Master Lei and flattered him over and over again.
"Yes, Mr. Lei, I heard that there is a reporter from the radio station who wants to interview today."
"It must be Mr. Shaw, as the old owner of Shaw Cinemas, who is here to promote our movie."
"This is a good opportunity to show off, but you have to prepare well."
The secretary flattered Mr. Lei again.
You know, the successive hit movies released by New Hongxing Pictures have long been noticed by radio station news programs.
The most important thing is that Uncle Shao’s involvement is naturally to promote this movie.
After all, Uncle Shao still owns a certain share in Shaw Group.
In short, the news interview did exist, but whether the subject of the news interview was Mr. Lei or not was another matter.
……
Half an hour later.
Radio station interview scene.
The host was very respectful to Mr. Lei.
"Master Lei, before the movie "God of Gamblers" was released, the most popular movies in the entire Hong Kong movie market were nothing more than kung fu movies and comedies."
"The movie "God of Gamblers" definitely breaks the paradigm of traditional themes and fully demonstrates the nonsense."
"I would like to ask, what was the motivation for Mr. Lei to make this movie?"
Inside the recording studio, the host interviewed Mr. Lei directly.
"When making movies, we have to be forward-looking. We can't always stick to those conservative traditional themes, right?"
“To understand innovation is to truly understand film.”
"Of course, if you want to make a really good movie, you still have to give young people opportunities. Just like our movie, Stephen Chow was an extra before he filmed this movie. It was because of his 100% trust in him that this masterpiece was made."
Young Master Lei said this directly with a smile on his face.
This is in stark contrast to Chen Wen's attitude when he first took a fancy to this extra.
The most important thing is that Mr. Lei is just seeking credit.
He even almost forgot that the movie "God of Gamblers" was a huge hit, which made Stephen Chow famous, but also made Lei Gongzi sell himself to Shaw Brothers to work hard for Chen Wen.
But for some reason, this time, Mr. Lei felt willing to work hard.
What he didn't know was that Mr. Lei's interview was also seen by many more people, including the film's star, Stephen Chow.
