Chapter 160 The Impact of Shaw's Acquisition

Zhao Hong stayed with Yazhi for the next few days. She and Zhao Hong hadn't seen each other for a long time. Some time ago, she went to the Mainland to film a large-scale TV series for Suzaku TV. They went to the Mainland for filming.

This TV series is adapted from Gu Long's novel, "Two Prides". DreamWorks has contacted Gu Long, and the TV station has full rights to adapt his novel, in the same format as Mr. Jin and TVB.

It is true that Zhuque TV was able to obtain the rights to adapt Gu Long's novel, and Zhao Hong contributed the most. Zhao Hong still remembers that when Gu Long came to Xiangjiang, DreamWorks personnel came to visit him, and he directly asked Zhao Hong to see him by name.

He was dissatisfied and resentful towards Zhao Hong. It turned out that he was the number one person under Jin Yong, but now the throne has been lost. He is an arrogant and conceited person. He can't look down on anyone except Mr. Jin. Zhao Hong, he

Naturally, I didn't notice it.

He had read some of Zhao Hong's novels, and he had to admit that they were indeed well written. Even he himself was immersed in them and couldn't extricate himself from them, but he still thought that his novels were better than Zhao Hong's.

The artistic conception of his novels is superb. Just like landscape paintings, there is a lot of blank space, and one can only understand the indescribable style. He is very proud of it.

To be honest, Zhao Hong has great admiration for Gu Long. He is really a genius. His novels are so imaginative and unconstrained that he shares the same task with Mr. Jin in martial arts novels. He is the master of the new martial arts school.

His novels include Little Li Flying Knife, The Legend of Chu Liuxiang, The Legend of Lu Xiaofeng, Peerless Two Prides, Heroes Without Tears, The Legend of the Banner Hero, Xiao Shiyilang, and The Prodigal Son of the Border Town, etc., which are all classics among classics.

Zhao Hong and Gu Long met in a bar. Zhao Hong was filled with wine as soon as they arrived. Fortunately, Zhao Hong was very fond of wine and poured wine into his mouth without saying a word.

This bold behavior made Gu Long very happy. After that, the two of them chatted enthusiastically. After a long conversation, both sides had a good impression of each other.

They all feel that they are similar to each other and that they are of the same kind. Gu Long is a prodigal son. He is just like Chu Liuxiang in his book. He is merciless and flirts with others. He is dismissive of other people's opinions and goes his own way.

Zhao Hong believed that these shortcomings were the reason why his novels were so good. He felt that the literati who could write classics were all talented people.

After a meal, they became good friends. Gu Long was a very weird person to make friends with. Some people might just get along with him for a while and he would recognize them as brothers. However, no matter how nice some people were to him, he would disdain them.

Gu.

He is an emotional person and a lovely person!

In the past month, DreamWorks Cinemas directly acquired all of Shao Daheng's theaters in Nanyang and Xiangjiang. Shao Daheng's theaters are not just theaters. There are many buildings and 70 theaters in Nanyang, and one in Xiangjiang.

Buildings and eighteen theaters, these houses in the lower courtyard are all owned by themselves.

After almost a month of calculations, DreamWorks paid HK$1.2 billion to fully acquire his theater, along with the real estate of the house.

When the news became known to the media, it caused a storm.

"The end of Shaw Brothers movies is the beginning of the glory of Hong Kong movies." Ming Pao.

The article gave detailed examples of the past of Xiangjiang Film, describing Shaw Brothers' films as old and decadent dregs, and highly praised Shaw Brothers' ability to retire at the right time. Of course, the article also expressed optimism about DreamWorks Cinemas.

"A film company comparable to Hollywood giants was born in Hong Kong." Sing Tao Daily.

"The decline of established filmmakers and the rise of new filmmakers." Meng Jiaren Magazine.



For a time, the media in Hong Kong carried out crazy reports. This was a big event. The sales of many newspapers doubled on this day. The people in Xiangjiang treated it like a bunch of people and shouted "666" loudly.

Of course, it is a surprise for some people, such as Zhao Hong's book fans. They just hope that he will become stronger and stronger. They will warmly welcome Zhao Hong's glorious deeds, and some small film companies are also relatively happy.

, after all, originally Shaw Brothers would not release films from other companies.

DreamWorks Cinemas is different. It supports other film companies to show it in theaters, but the requirements are a bit stricter, but isn't there hope?

It’s better than not thinking about it at all! For these people, Zhao Honghui would say that they think too much. If he wants to go long on the dozen or so local stores in Xiangjiang, he will open two or three in places that are not overlapping with the DreamWorks Cinema, and others.

The theaters are all directly operated by DreamWorks.

After Shao Daheng's theater was purchased, it was completely divided up by the subsidiaries of DreamWorks, and there was no waste at all.

As for there are many unhappy people, take Zou Daheng as an example! When he picked up the newspaper in the morning, he felt that his whole person was not well.

DreamWorks Cinemas is going to heaven! Seeing that DreamWorks spent 1.2 billion to buy a Shaw Brothers theater without blinking an eye, he felt powerless.

In the past, he was not too easy to deal with at Shaw Brothers, but now that he has come to DreamWorks, he is incompetent. In the past, their Golden Harvest always regarded themselves as the big brother of Xiangjiang Film Company, but now he has no such shame.

He read the information in the newspaper carefully, and felt disappointed after reading it. To be honest, Jiahe and DreamWorks didn't even fight a single battle, so the big brother's position was shifted, and he lost in a muddle.

After reading the newspaper, the only thing left in his mind was the 1.2 billion. To him, this was an astronomical sum. Despite his endless fame, in fact, his total net worth was only 4 to 5 billion, and a lot of it was in real estate.

Company shares.

He has no intention of trying to compete with DreamWorks now. It's really not the same level.

Just when Zou Daheng was reading the newspaper, He Guanchang entered the office. He looked at Zou Daheng reading the newspaper and said, "Lemon, you look bad. Is there any bad news?"

Zou Daheng said weakly: "You should read it yourself!" After saying that, he handed the newspaper to He Guanchang.

He Guanchang took the newspaper and read it for a while before putting it down.

"Hey! There will be a big mountain pressing down on the company from now on!" He Guanchang said with emotion. A large stack of newspapers was all about DreamWorks' acquisition of Shaw Brothers Theater.

He looked at Zou Daheng who was still weak and said: "Meng, this is not necessarily a bad thing for us. In my opinion, DreamWorks will not renovate more theaters in Hong Kong, at most not

More than five."

"This scale has little bearing on whether they acquire Shaw Brothers Theatres, because DreamWorks has many buildings in Hong Kong. It only needs a little renovation to be a high-end theater. There is no need to spend a lot of effort to renovate the old theaters of Shaw Brothers.

They just converted these theaters into DreamWorks directly-operated stores. This has precedent. In the past year or so, DreamWorks also acquired some scattered theaters. After they purchased them, they directly converted them into DreamWorks directly-operated stores.
