49, it is better to be self-reliant than to be controlled by others
After the final banquet, although Liu Dapao was full of expectations for the release of [Heroic Reality], he still had a clear understanding.
Now that he cannot control his own destiny, no matter how good this work is, he still needs help. Moreover, millions of Hong Kong dollars have been invested in. After the actor's remuneration has been paid, Liu Dapao has no money left, and he must make a return as soon as possible.
Cinemas are now the key to restricting their own exhibitions. It seems that if you want to be uncontrollable, you have to develop Vcd as soon as possible. After Vcd is developed, viewers can buy their own Vcd machine and Vcd disc, and they don’t have to get involved with the cinema at all.
The population of Xiangjiang is nearly 50,000. As long as 10,000 people buy it, a Vcd machine costs 5,000 Hong Kong dollars, which is 500 million Hong Kong dollars. That is a very impressive performance. In addition, selling movie discs and CDs, selling a few hundred Hong Kong dollars per plate. This kind of income is simply amazing.
In addition to the Xiangjiang market, the external market will definitely set off a crazy sales frenzy, and an electronic empire can be created at that time.
The next day, Liu Dapao went to the factory.
"Brother Pao is here. He is now building a factory. It is very dusty. Why don't you be there and I'll call you which one you want."
The factory security guard was one of the Abao who had a conflict in the fish market. Now his people are arranged here to be responsible for the security work.
Liu Dapao said: "No, I want to see the production situation."
After entering the factory, Liu Dapao saw hundreds of workers busy. Judging from their appearance, they seemed to be still in the training period.
But there are a few strange faces who are very skilled.
"Chairman, you are here."
Chief Engineer Nie Feng saw Liu Dapao and hurried over to greet him.
"How many of them are?"
Liu Dapao asked, pointing at the strange faces.
Nie Feng smiled and said, "They are professional talents I hired from Riben. They are very skilled in the electronics industry and have higher salary. I agreed with them to 20,000 Hong Kong dollars a month."
Liu Dapao gave Nie Feng a lot of power. In addition to grasping technology and professional talents, he had the right to make the decision.
"Since it's a talent, it's not expensive. We need to find a way to take out all their skills and teach them to our workers."
Liu Dapao said.
Nie Feng smiled and said, "Don't worry, although they are stupid Japanese people, they are all stupid Japanese people. When they arrive in Xiangjiang, they don't want to leave. However, these guys are a little lustful. These days, the female workers in the factory have been disturbed by them frequently, and he really got one of them."
Nie Feng pointed at a stupid man and said.
"As long as you don't do anything randomly, come out with me, let's discuss something." Liu Dapao said.
After the two came out, Liu Dapao asked: "The technology of the CD machine is perfect. If I ask you to add video technology to it, how confident are you?"
There are actually video players nowadays. Laser discs were released in 1978 and can play videos. However, the capacity of laser discs is not large, and the number of plays will affect the picture quality.
"You mean, upgrade the CD machine? Can you play audio and video at the same time?" Nie Feng said.
Liu Dapao nodded and Nie Feng said: "This technical problem needs to be studied, and the theory is completely possible. As long as the image processing technology can be studied, the chances of success should be high. However, if this happens, the CD machine will be suppressed again by then. Isn't it a waste of effort to invest so much now?"
"No, there is also a market for CD machines, and musicians will like it. So, after the CD machines come out, they will be dumped to various countries immediately. When new products come out, the production of CD machines will be strictly controlled."
Liu Dapao said with a smile.
Nie Feng nodded and said, "The first batch of CD machines are expected to be released in mid-September, and the number is 1,000 units. You must be prepared."
"No problem, you work harder and take me to heart. Huowu Group will become the world's leader in electronic products, and you will also become a godfather-like figure in the world."
Liu Dapao wanted to fully mobilize Nie Feng's enthusiasm. In the 21st century, the update rate of electronic products was shocking. Although it was only 80 years old, it was still possible to do this. Generations of products can be invincible forever.
The key is patented technology. As long as you master this, no one dares to imitate it in the future. Huowu Group will be able to enjoy the market exclusively.
Two days later, Lao Zeng called Liu Dapao and the sample had been edited.
After Liu Dapao arrived at the company, he immediately watched the sample.
After watching it, Liu Dapao felt that the filming was not much different from the one in history, and it was very contagious. He nodded and said, "It's not bad, just make the finished product immediately and use the best film."
"Okay, but whether the inspection department can pass depends on their expressions. Village chief, I suggest you just need to make a public relations. Such police and gangster blockbusters can easily cause social responses. If the authorities are afraid of causing social unrest, they may not be allowed to pass."
Lao Zeng has reached the key point.
Liu Dapao nodded. The inspection department does have this right. If it is stuck here, it will be tears without tears.
"Well, it seems that you still have to deal with them. You can consider it within one million Hong Kong dollars."
Liu Dapao said that [Heroic Reality] involves many clubs, and now the Xiangjiang authorities are cracking down on clubs severely, so it is really hard to say whether they can pass.
However, the next day, Liu Dapao received a reply from Lao Zeng. After giving out a large sum of 880,000 yuan, [The True Character of Heroes] passed the review and was ready to be released.
As soon as the money was given out, Feitian Film has really done it now, with only a few thousand yuan in its account.
At this time, Liu Dapao was watching the sample with Shao Yifu in the playback room.
"Uncle Six, how about it? I didn't brag, right?"
After reading it, Liu Dapao asked immediately.
Shao Yifu was already shocked. Not to mention the plot, the high-quality pictures of the work surprised Shao Yifu. Such pictures will definitely be a big hit.
"Yes, Da Cannon, I really didn't expect that you could make such a good work. Very good. I can arrange for the release of [Heroics's True Color] as soon as possible. However, according to the old rules, I will be divided into six and four, and I will buy out the overseas box office and give you five million Hong Kong dollars."
Shao Yifu's wishful thinking started.
Liu Dapao laughed and said, "Uncle Six, you are really scheming. In this case, Shaw Brothers will make a big profit among the big ones. Don't I have to make wedding dresses for you? I won't accept this plan. It's okay to share the six-fourth, but it's me, you four, and you four. I'll share the net profit and overseas publicity. I can give you the promotion of Xiangjiang. I can participate in Lao Jin. I still have some face. I asked him to give a page promotion in the "Daily and Moon News". I don't think there is any problem."
Shao Yifu also smiled: "Da Cannon, you really think that if you share such a high amount, what will I earn? The promotional fee is very high, and I also take a lot of risks. If the audience doesn't like this style of work, wouldn't I have to pay for it?"
"So, Uncle Six has no need to discuss it?"
Liu Dapao said with a smile.
Shao Yifu said: "Let's do this, the box office of Hong Kong is 55% off, but if I want to buy out the overseas box office, I will add another million Hong Kong dollars to you."
Liu Dapao immediately stood up, took the sample in his hand and left.
Chapter completed!
