Jiahe Company is a very prestigious entertainment company both at home and abroad.
It was co-founded in 1970 by Mr. Zou Wen, Mr. He and Mr. Liang Jingjing, and became a listed company in Hong Kong City this year. It is an influential film and entertainment company in Hong Kong City and the most prestigious in the entire Chinese circle.
Influential film entertainment company.
Over the years, Jiahe Entertainment has financed and produced more than 600 movies, creating two world-renowned superstars, Li Dalong and Jackie Chan, and countless acting stars.
Jiahe not only made Chinese kung fu movies famous around the world, but also created Hong Kong comedy films and action comedy films, becoming a pioneer among Hong Kong entertainment companies.
Not only in Hong Kong City, but also in places like Singapore, Jiahe has built more than ten movie theaters.
Therefore, every year or even every day, countless people come to Jiahe Company to discuss business and cooperation.
Jiahe Company is divided into six departments, each department has a manager and a group of operating employees.
The manager of Department No. 1 is named Wang Jiping, and he is a strong candidate for the next general manager.
During this period, Wang Jiping was very serious and responsible at work. He was always the first to arrive at the company and the last to leave work.
The reason for this is not at all how dedicated and responsible Wang Jiping is, but because the current general manager of Jiahe Company is about to retire and leave, so Wang Jiping wants to compete for the position of general manager.
But what troubles Wang Jiping is that he has not achieved any breakthrough results recently.
Competitors in several other departments have achieved very good results, and some of the films directed by their managers have once again made it onto the Hong Kong Film List.
Just when Wang Jiping was bored, his subordinate knocked on his office door.
"Manager Wang, there is a Mr. Lin outside who has made an appointment with you."
Hearing this, Wang Jiping could only let out a long sigh and put the general manager matter aside.
Not long after, Wang Jiping saw Mr. Lin in the reception room.
He put on a polite smile and extended his right hand to the middle-aged man in a suit and tie opposite him.
"Hello, Mr. Lin, what do you want to do with your visit to our company?"
Lin Hongbiao smiled mysteriously, suddenly approached Wang Jiping, and lowered his voice.
"Manager Wang, I have a way to help you run for the position of general manager."
As soon as these words came out, Wang Jiping was shocked. He glanced outside and smiled awkwardly, "You, what do you mean?"
Lin Hongbiao held his fists in his hands and fell back on the chair in no hurry.
"Isn't the meaning obvious?
With your current performance, I'm afraid you can't compete with several other department managers."
At this time, Wang Jiping couldn't sit still at all.
Because Lin Hongbiao's words simply touched his heart.
"You...who are you?"
"It doesn't matter who I am. What's important is that I can greatly increase the performance of the publicity department and allow you to sit in the position of general manager."
Faced with Wang Jiping's shock, Lin Hongbiao seemed exceptionally calm.
"You know, your general manager will retire at the end of the year."
After Lin Hongbiao finished speaking, Wang Jiping opposite him took a deep breath, and his excited attitude calmed down slightly.
He can serve as the manager of the publicity department, and his determination is not bad.
Although the temptation of the general manager was very great to him, it would be a bit fanciful for Lin Hongbiao not to come up with some useful information and try to fool him with a few words.
"Then Mr. Lin, through what channels do you plan to help me?"
Wang Jiping asked casually.
Lin Hongbiao raised his eyebrows without thinking.
"How is the mainland market?"
As soon as these words came out, Wang Jiping immediately laughed, with great disdain in his words.
"Mainland market?
Hahahahaha, are you kidding? The mainland is so poor, can they afford to watch movies? Looking for promotion from the mainland is a complete waste of time!"
After saying that, Wang Jiping stood up directly and said with great disappointment.
"Mr. Lin, if these are your only methods, I think there is no need for us to continue talking."
In fact, what Wang Jiping said is not a lie. For some reasons, the current economic level of Hong Kong City is much higher than that of the mainland.
This is not an exaggeration. At present, the salary of ordinary people in Hong Kong City can basically reach more than 10,000 yuan.
In some big cities in the mainland, the current salary starts at just a few hundred yuan, not to mention that some ordinary people working in the countryside cannot even feed their families, and their salary may not even be a hundred yuan.
Not to mention that the current exchange rate of money in Hong Kong City is higher than that of money in the mainland.
It is precisely because of this huge wage gap that many women in Pengcheng and other places close to the port city are kept as mistresses. In exaggerated places, there are even some places called mistress villages.
The most exaggerated point is that later on, even some truck drivers and taxi drivers in port cities were able to maintain mistresses and mistresses when they arrived in the mainland.
Therefore, Wang Jiping looks down upon the consumption level of the mainland, and what he says is not true.
At present, the cultural and entertainment industry in Hong Kong City is booming. A movie ticket can be sold for one or two hundred yuan, which is completely acceptable to the people of Hong Kong City.
In the entire port city, there are an astonishing number of more than 120 movie theaters.
As for the mainland, not to mention the price of movie tickets, even if the cinemas in mainland China are put together, there are probably not as many as in Hong Kong cities.
So for Wang Jiping, or for all the entertainment companies in Hong Kong City, no one has thought about development in the mainland.
"Haha, Manager Wang, are you sure there is no room for development of the mainland's entertainment industry?"
Lin Hongbiao smiled disapprovingly.
"Currently, the domestic genuine market for martial arts novels in Hong Kong has reached hundreds of millions of yuan, not to mention the terrifying pirated market."
"Before martial arts novels entered the country, there were only a few publishing houses in China, but now they have increased a hundred times. The annual sales of works by masters such as Jin Yong and Gu Long exceed hundreds of thousands, far higher than
Sales volume in Hong Kong City!”
“Similarly, the mainland’s entertainment market is in dire straits and is growing wildly.
If this opportunity is missed, Jiahe will also fall behind other film companies!"
Lin Hongbiao's loud words made Wang Jiping freeze on the spot.
He didn't expect that this seemingly inexperienced mainlander could actually have such a vision in his remarks.
After hesitating for a while, Wang Jiping said helplessly.
"But no matter how extravagant your words are, you can still convince Jiahe Entertainment to spend a lot of resources on promoting movies in the mainland.
But given the number of cinemas and equipment in the mainland, we have no way to promote it even if we want to!"
"And even if it is promoted reluctantly, I believe the benefits will not be too big. It is really not necessary."
Hearing this, Lin Hongbiao stood up from his position with disdain.
"One wrong step, every wrong step.
In the same way, if you take one step first, you will lead step by step!"
"The mainland has a population of 1.2 billion, and one movie ticket per person means a market of nearly 10 billion! If your company doesn't even have the ambition to seize this market, why should I go on? It's better to talk to other entertainment companies.
!”
"And Manager Wang, given your current performance, you want to take over the position of general manager.
Do you think you have other opportunities besides the mainland market, which no one is paying attention to?"
"Do you think you can help Jiahe annex other entertainment companies, or do you think you can open up the market in country m?"
"Okay, that's all I have to say, that's it!"
After saying that, Lin Hongbiao flicked his sleeves and stood up without hesitation to leave.
Seeing this scene, Wang Jiping immediately became anxious.
He rushed forward and stopped Lin Hongbiao.
Obviously, what Lin Hongbiao said just now had already moved him.
Wang Jiping is actually not very interested in whether the above companies seize the market or not. He is not the boss, so it is none of his business.
But what happened next made him feel moved.
Lin Hongbiao is right. The company's market in Hong Kong City is currently saturated. As for helping the company annex many entertainment companies, it is just a dream.
If you can't get the market in Hong Kong, let's not even think about the market in M, where movies are more prosperous than Hong Kong.
And if he wants to stand out among so many managers, just producing a few movies that hit the box office charts is not enough. The mainland market, which does not seem to be very profitable, seems to have become a new choice.
"Mr. Lin, you are right. The mainland is a gold market waiting to be developed. Jiahe is very interested in it. I also urgently need your help!"
"Please do not hesitate to teach me!"
Having said that, Wang Jiping also bowed deeply towards Lin Hongbiao.
Seeing that the fish was hooked, Lin Hongbiao smiled and stretched out a finger.
"It's actually very simple. First, make your company's reputation known!"
"Let all mainlanders be attracted by your films and become fans of your company's actors!"
