As Zou wenhuai said, the lawsuit between Shao and Jiahe arose from Wang Yu.

The brothers who followed Zou wenhuai to leave the Shao family were not as numerous as when they yelled at the hen Si Chen, but they were united enough.

He Guanchang, Liang Feng and CAI Dusheng founded Jiahe together with Zou wenhuai and set up the team of the company; Senior director Rowe, Kung Fu superstar Wang Yu and others also joined in.

Before Li Xiaolong, Wang Yu was the top martial arts star in Chinese films.

He starred in "one armed knife", which grossed more than one million, and derived a sequel with the same box office of more than one million - "one armed knife king", which seems to have become an IP of "one armed knife".

Jiahe Gang "made persistent efforts" and asked Wang Yu to make a "one armed knife vs. blind man" in the name of "one armed knife".

Shao Yifu will quit now!

In recent years, many people have fled from the Shao family, including Li Hanxiang and Hu Jinquan, and now Zou wenhuai and Wang Yu.

Shao Yifu doesn't care, because he is a leading figure in the film field for many years, which is enough to ensure that the structure of Shao's film kingdom will not collapse, that is to say, "everyone will turn the same when the earth leaves".

However, Jiahe's shooting "one armed knife vs. blind man" is different. It belongs to blatantly playing the edge ball. Once the film is released, it will impolitely rob the IP money of "one armed knife".

Zou wenhuai was prepared and invited lawyer Yu Shushao, a recognized leader in Xiangjiang's legal circles, to escort him; Shao Yifu, who was really angry, invited a Barrister from Britain to act as an agent, with an attitude of putting Zou wenhuai to death.

Without exaggeration, Zou wenhuai and Shao Yifu's love story turned to a new chapter, which stimulated the media and widened their eyes for fear of missing any detail.

Just now Gao Xian tested Zou wenhuai whether he intended to compete with Shao and attract Li Xiaolong; Zou wenhuai made excuses and was embarrassed. He was afraid of Shao Yifu in the current sensitive period.

Gao Xian didn't point out Zou wenhuai's external strength and medium strength at this time. He gently proposed: "if boss Zou can rest assured of Gao, I am willing to support Jiahe and reach cooperation with Li Xiaolong in terms of funds."

Zou wenhuai was stunned and said with a smile, "Mr. Gao is the most dazzling star in the central financial district. I have nothing to worry about, whether it's credit or financial resources."

"Besides, the way I make movies is completely different from Shao's blockbuster system. I admire the very open producer system. If there is money willing to come in, I'm happy to see its success and interests."

"This is also the focus of the contradiction between Shao and me. I believe the media has long introduced it to the world, and I will certainly not change day and night."

Seeing that Zou wenhuai had no objection, Gao Xian nodded with satisfaction.

Of course, Zou wenhuai's words, Gao Xian will only choose to believe half.

In Gao Xian's view, the fundamental reason why Zou wenhuai ran away from Shao is the failure of the company's positive governance struggle. However, Zou wenhuai himself has always taken the idea of incompatibility as a fig leaf, and the media are also keen on this pure and noble reason.

The so-called conceptual incompatibility means that Zou wenhuai wants to implement the producer system in film management, while Shao Yifu continues to adhere to the blockbuster system that helps him create the film kingdom in view of the model of the golden age of Hollywood.

According to Gao Xian's understanding, the core of Shao's blockbuster system is to establish and maintain a set of strict rules with strong resources. The boss is the supreme emperor, and others are wage earners. They have no right to share the dividends of film success and can only receive a fixed salary.

Take Wang Yu, the top kung fu star in Xiangjiang at this stage, as an example. When he first joined Shao, his monthly salary was only HK $200; Later, it rose to 800 Hong Kong dollars, plus 1200 Hong Kong dollars for each film.

In this way, Wang Yu's average monthly income is about 6000 Hong Kong dollars.

On the other hand, Wang Yu made a huge box office revenue for Shao. The box office of "one armed knife" and "one armed knife king" alone exceeded HK $1 million.

In the face of such a huge contrast, even people with no ambition will have an unbalanced state of mind. Besides, Wang Yu is still a restless master.

In view of this disadvantage, when Zou wenhuai was still in Shao's family, he suggested to Shao Yifu to follow the popular Dividend System in Hollywood, so that famous directors and actors can enjoy dividends, so as to stabilize people's hearts.

Shao Yifu is well-known for his meticulous calculation in business. In addition, Shao brothers film company has no rivals. Naturally, there is no need to worry about his top card being poached, and he is not willing to give more money to others.

In essence, there is an irreconcilable interest contradiction between the boss and employees.

Shao Yifu's view is: I discovered you and praised you. Without me, there would be no you; Therefore, you should be grateful and serve the benefactor all your life; And I guarantee you more red and purple, and you have no excellent food and clothing.

People like Wang Yu will think like this: You praised me, and I also brought you huge profits. We are basically clear. I will remember your kindness all my life, but I can't be poor all my life - just meet the food and clothing you promised. What's more, how can I be carefree? Movies are highly competitive youth meals. What should I do when I'm old? What if you fall out of favor? What if the company declines? Quanxiangjiang people want to be rich. Why can't we?

Compared with Shao Yifu, Zou wenhuai's attitude is much more open-minded, turning the employment relationship between master and servant into an equal cooperative relationship, shouting "everyone makes money".

Of course, kindness is not in charge of soldiers, righteousness is not financial management, and Zou wenhuai is not a kind man and woman, but a new mode of exploitation.

After Jiahe also became the overlord, Zou wenhuai could clearly understand the local box office dividends in Xiangjiang, but the more lucrative overseas box office would be put into his own pocket.

Subsequently, Hong Jinbao and others have become a new generation of restless "Wang Yu".

In short, any brilliance of human society is inseparable from "fuel" and "flower fertilizer".

The producer system advocated by Zou wenhuai seems to put himself in the interests of filmmakers, but it is not a helpless move under the current situation of insufficient financial resources.

The so-called producer system is to control the power of film production. It is no longer the boss of the production company, but money.

According to the principle of "who invests, who enjoys the rights and interests", the division of rights and interests of the film is determined by the amount of investment and contribution of all parties.

Zou wenhuai is more flexible in implementing the producer system.

No problem with wholly-owned, or joint venture. Jiahe is willing to make the factory bid and preside over the production.

In this way, the contradiction of Jiahe's lack of funds has not only been solved, but also reduced the business risk.

Naturally, as soon as Gao Xian expressed his willingness to cooperate, Zou wenhuai readily agreed.

Gao Xian thought for a while, but still raised the core question, "who will contact Li Xiaolong?"

Zou wenhuai, who was in a lawsuit with Shao brothers film company, was really afraid that Shao Yifu might be stimulated crazy, so he found another excuse and said: "at present, Jiahe is in urgent need of a first-line actress. Therefore, he is concentrating resources to strive for Zheng peipeipei's joining."

"I see." Gao Xian snapped his fingers. "I'm responsible for contacting Li Xiaolong."

Zou wenhuai said with a smile, "those who can do more work, Mr. Gao has worked hard."

Looking at Zou wenhuai obviously relieved, Gao Xian couldn't help laughing in his heart, "are you afraid of heavy?"

"Although you are familiar with Shao Yifu's careful calculation, you don't understand Li Xiaolong's arrogance. They are doomed to fail to agree on terms."

"Compared with the difficulty of lobbying Li Xiaolong for cooperation, how to get along with Li Xiaolong in the process of making a film is tiring."

Taking advantage of Zou wenhuai's feeling that he had taken advantage of himself, Gao Xian said, "according to the plan, the production time of 72 tenants is two weeks. Therefore, the release time will come soon. I want to ask boss Zou to contact me for help in the cinema."

Zou wenhuai nodded happily, "although Jiahe hasn't had time to establish his own cinema for the time being, after all, I have worked for many years and accumulated a lot of resources, so I can help with the activity."

"For example, the theater of Cathay Pacific institutions should have no problem."

Gao Xian asked, "as far as I know, Shao's cinema is the largest in Xiangjiang. Is it possible to release 72 tenants?"

Zou wenhuai shrugged. "It depends on Mr. Gao's face. After all, Shao's own film production is very high."

Gao Xian raised his eyebrows and said, "is this a test of my energy? Then I really want to try."
