Entertainment: The opening and the official announcement of the national goddess

Chapter 629 The Huaguo Film Circle Is Coming to a Storm
There was no way, the Department of Culture could only approve 1 screens for them in accordance with the regulations.

The news that Sunshine Entertainment Company and Cable Company were going to build theaters in Huaguo quickly spread throughout the Huaguo entertainment circle.

Huayi Entertainment Company, Wang Jun is drinking tea and chatting with Chen Gang.

"Gangzi, have you heard that Zhang Xiao is going to attack the theaters!"

Chen Gang took a sip of tea and said, "I heard that his 5000 yuan screen plus Suo Li's 2000 yuan is enough to feed the Huaguo movie circle. Movie production companies are going to be in demand."

Wang Jun was silent for a while, and said: "Suo Li invited me to join their theater construction plan."

Chen Gang was taken aback, and asked, "What do you mean?"

Wang Jundao: "Cuo Li wants to use 40.00% of the shares of Future Cinemas to attract us production companies. Together with us, there are a total of ten companies, and each company can subscribe for [-]% of the shares."

"You agreed?" Chen Gang asked.

"Not yet!" Wang Jun said with a wry smile, "I don't even have the money to subscribe!"

Wang Jun has already mortgaged all three of his villas to the bank because he wants to fill the hole left by Universal Pictures in "Battle of the Red Cliff".

Chen Gang sighed and said, "This is a good opportunity, what a pity."

Ever since Huayi Cinemas was sold to Yang Mi, Huayi Entertainment no longer had any say in distribution and could only rely on others.

It is a pity that we finally have the opportunity to control the right to speak, but we cannot cooperate because of lack of funds.

At this moment, Wang Jun's phone rang.

"What's the matter?" Looking at the phone at the front desk, Wang Jun asked directly.

"Mr. Wang, Mr. Takeshi Tanabe, Vice President of Huaguo District of Cable Company, wants to see you."

Wang Jun was taken aback for a moment, and quickly said: "Please quickly invite Mr. Takeshi Tanabe to come up."

After hanging up the phone, Wang Jun stood up and said, "Takeshi Tanabe is probably here to discuss cooperation with us. I'll go to the elevator to pick him up."

Chen Gang arrived: "Then I will avoid it for a while."

"No, let's meet together!" Wang Jun said with a smile: "Even if the cooperation fails, we can still talk to him about the release of "Battle of the Red Cliff". It's definitely not enough to rely on Zhang Xiao as an enemy!"

Chen Gang nodded and said, "Okay!"

Soon, Wang Jun and Chen Gang met Takeshi Tanabe in front of the elevator.

This guy is a middle-aged man in his 40s, with a mustache and short stature, half a head shorter than Chen Gang, who is only 1.6 meters tall.

The three of them were polite and walked into the reception room.

Wang Jun said: "Mr. Tanabe Takeshi, you came here this time, what is the matter?"

Takeshi Tanabe said with a smile: "Mr. Wang, you should be able to guess."

Wang Jun sighed, and said, "If it's about the theater chain, I'm afraid I'll disappoint you. I'm not afraid of your school belle. I don't have the money to subscribe now."

Takeshi Tanabe waved his hand and said, "It's okay, we can provide you with a low-interest loan of [-] million U.S. dollars."

Hearing his words, Wang Jun narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "What's the price?"

Takeshi Tanabe said: "In the future, the distribution rights of the film and television works invested and shot by Huayi Film and Television Company will be completely owned by Suo Li until you pay off the loan. Mr. Wang, this should not be too much, right?"

Wang Jun pondered for a moment, then smiled and said, "I have no reason not to agree to such a good condition!"

Takeshi Tanabe stretched out his hand and smiled, "Then, happy cooperation!"

Wang Jun smiled and said, "Happy cooperation!"

The two shook hands and laughed at the same time.

Immediately afterwards, Wang Jun raised the issue of the distribution of "Battle of the Red Cliff", and Takeshi Tanabe directly patted his chest and made a guarantee that Cable Company would be responsible to the end.

After chatting for almost half an hour, Takeshi Tanabe left after the two sides confirmed the negotiation time.

Looking at the car that was slowly making news, Wang Jun said: "Gangzi, what do you think Suo Li is doing?"

Chen Gang murmured: "It is very likely that it is to snatch film resources. I guess that for other companies, Suo Li will also raise this condition. As long as all the top ten film production companies are pulled onto Suo Li's battleship, it will be equivalent to Controlling 40.00% of Huaguo's distribution share, one can imagine how terrifying this is."

Wang Jun frowned when he heard this, and said, "What a big game of chess!"

Chen Gang said: "Mr. Wang, be careful. We are Huaguo Company. If one is not good, it may become an accomplice of Suo Li's control of Huaguo's film distribution. If we anger the Department of Culture, we will be completely finished."

"I understand!" Wang Jun nodded, and he can naturally understand this point.

Not only Huayi Entertainment Company, Brilliant Film Company, Yunfei Film Company, Lieyang Film Company and other well-known film production companies in Huaguo, Suo Li sent people to visit their helmsmen one by one.

Soon, the top ten film production companies all signed relevant agreements with Suo Li on the joint construction of movie theaters and film distribution, forming a big alliance with ease.

When they held a press conference together and announced their cooperation in building a theater circuit with more than 1 screens, the entire entertainment circle was shocked.

"Fuck, what is this?"

"The top ten production companies cooperate with Suo Li, this is to create a monopoly!"

"Stupid monopoly, don't forget, we also have companies like Longda and Qingtian that integrate production and distribution!"

"ε=(ο｀*))) Oh, the rain is about to come, and the building is full of wind. I feel that Huaguo's entertainment circle is about to usher in a storm."

"1 yuan for a screen, Suo Li is really rich!"

"···"

Even the netizens have already felt the tricks behind this incident, let alone the people in the circle.

Wu Jin even talked about Zhang Xiao meeting Yu Qian's racecourse for a drink.

Zhang Xiao said with a smile: "Brother Jin, your entertainment company makes three or four movies all year round. Other film and television companies are not in a hurry. Why are you in a hurry?"

Wu Jindao: "I'm not worried about myself, but about Huaguo Films. Didn't you see that Suoli Company's conspiracy is huge this time?"

"Yes!" Li Liangjie, who was drinking together, also said: "This company is a world-renowned giant with a market value of more than 5000 billion U.S. dollars. It is indeed very scary."

"It's not that serious!" Zhang Xiao smiled and waved his hands, and said, "It's so old, it's impossible for a single company to shake the Huaguo film industry."

Wu Jin continued: "The key is that it now controls theaters and distribution!"

Zhang Xiaodao: "How many domestic first- and second-tier contemplations are there? Want to monopolize this industry with 1 screens? That's impossible. Besides, we have to build theaters in sunny days. We just applied for it a few days ago. Approve it."

"I'll go~" Wu Jin was taken aback, and asked in disbelief, "Is it true?"

"Of course it's true." Zhang Xiao said with a smile: "During the Spring Festival, Brother Hua's "The Crowd" and four other films changed their schedule due to the issue of the filming rate, which made me feel that the Huaguo Cinemas could not keep up. With the development of domestic films, I wanted to build more theaters, but I didn’t expect Suo Li’s speed to be faster than mine.”

"Actually, the Department of Culture was also worried that they would make trouble. I originally only needed 1 yuan for the screen, but the Department of Culture abruptly gave me 5000 yuan."
