706 The Godmother of Chinese Entertainment in Mainland China and Taiwan (4k)
Xu Xin was fully responsible for the acquisition of TVB.
Lu Fei had many things to do. He wanted to focus on the layout of Xiangjiang, and discussed with Zheng Yutong, Wu Guangzheng and others about the cross-border and offshore routes of Feigou.com, but at the end of February, he took the time for the first time.
A dinner was specially arranged at the Miramar Hotel.
Because the crew of "Let the Bullets Fly" came to Hong Kong to promote the film, and Gao Yuanyuan, the producer, was also among them.
Jiang Wen, Zhou Runfa, and Ge You were very knowledgeable, so the banquet ended early, leaving enough time and space for the two of them to be alone.
"Sister-in-law and Ruoruo are taking care of Huahua."
Gao Yuanyuan came to the suite where Lu Fei was staying. The table was covered with documents, forms and data.
"check it out."
Lu Fei took out the information about the Deep Water Bay mansion, as well as the decoration design drawings and concept drawings, "What do you think?"
Gao Yuanyuan took a closer look and looked at it carefully.
Lu Fei smiled: "This is our home in Xiangjiang from now on. You are the hostess. Can you give me some advice?"
When she saw that the house had been equipped with a baby room, a playroom, and even anti-collision rubber railings, Gao Yuanyuan smiled with satisfaction: "Is this the surprise you said you wanted to give me on the phone?"
"This is not a surprise, it's just a small gift."
"small gift?"
"satisfied?"
Lu Fei waved his hand, "If you are dissatisfied with anything or have other ideas, you can mention it and let the designer change it immediately."
Gao Yuanyuan put on a sweet smile: "It's too late today, let's talk tomorrow. Anyway, I have to stay in Xiangjiang during this period."
Lu Fei thought it was because of "Let the Bullets Fly", but he didn't expect that he was actually running for the Hong Kong Film Awards, which was very surprising.
"The market in Xiangjiang is too small. "33 Days After Love" only had a box office of more than 2 million Hong Kong dollars, and "Let the Bullets Fly" is probably about the same." Gao Yuanyuan's tone was full of disgust, if she didn't want Yang Mi, Jing Tian and the others to make a profit.
Prize, she won't come to Xiangjiang.
Especially Zeng Li, she is just short of an Academy Award.
If she wins the award, she will be China Entertainment's third-gold Grand Slam Best Actress.
"Just give me a call for this kind of thing."
Lu Fei disagreed, "It's just a matter of a few words."
Gao Yuanyuan was surprised, "Isn't it said that the Academy Awards are very exclusive? There seems to be some unwritten rule that mainland actresses can only win awards through co-productions between the mainland and Hong Kong?"
"Rules are made for those who abide by them, right?" Lu Fei said with a smile, "We make the rules!"
"How bad is that? I don't know, I thought Sister Zeng Li was the 'Water Queen'." Gao Yuanyuan rolled her eyes and prepared to attend the movie premiere. In addition to inviting Yinghuang, she also invited Anle, Media Asia, Galaxy and other Hong Kong celebrities.
As well as Cheng Long, Liu Dehua and other insiders.
"Okay, treat me, behead me, and accept me as a dog."
Lu Fei glanced at it, and saw that the group in the north-shanghai port circle had already obeyed, and now it was the turn of the group to stick to the base camp.
"Why are you being a dog? You think you are filming "Let the Bullets Fly"." Gao Yuanyuan poked his forehead and opened her palm again.
"What?"
"What about the surprise? You said the house is not a surprise, so where is the surprise you prepared for me?"
"What a surprise."
The corner of Lu Fei's mouth raised, and he took out the completed equity transfer contract from the pile of documents, with TVB's name clearly written on it.
"ah?!
Gao Yuanyuan's eyes widened, "You want to buy TVB?"
"It's not me, look at the signature." Lu Fei shook his head.
Gao Yuanyuan turned to the last page and saw that there were Wang Xuehong, Hantang, Feigou, and Penguin on the list. The last one was not Lu Fei's Three Body Fund, but their "Two of Us" fund.
It still accounts for the most, 15%!
Gao Yuanyuan's eyes widened, and her mind suddenly went blank.
"Wanwan also indirectly holds shares in CTV Group. Now our CEO is not just the godmother of domestic entertainment, but the real godmother of China Entertainment in the three places across the Taiwan Strait!" Lu Fei's mouth rose slightly.
"Give me?"
"What do you think?"
"You, why did you suddenly buy TVB for me?"
Gao Yuanyuan was surprised and happy, her voice trembling.
"Didn't this Penguin short squeeze make some money? If you have money, of course you have to spend it. Are you surprised? Are you happy?"
Lu Fei opened his arms and raised his eyebrows.
Gao Yuanyuan blinked and immediately flew into his arms, her whole body like an octopus, tightly wrapped around him and pulled him into the bathroom.
"Whoa whoa whoa~"
There were water stains all over the floor. The faucet that was powerful just now was dripping with water, but there was no drop left.
In the steaming bathtub, the two cuddled up against each other.
"I still can't believe it. You really want to spend more than 6 billion Hong Kong dollars to buy TVB?" Gao Yuanyuan raised her head and looked up.
"To be precise, it's 6.3 billion, equivalent to HK$55 per share, which is about 15% higher than the market price. It's quite a bargain."
Lu Fei closed his eyes and enjoyed her massage.
"But I don't know anything about TVB management. I'm afraid I can't manage TVB as well as Mrs. Fang. Do you really trust me to leave TVB to me?" Gao Yuanyuan lacked confidence and was very unsure.
"Don't worry, someone will help you, and there is also Zhong Lifang. I recruited her from Phoenix TV to assist you. In short, TVB is an important puzzle piece for the Han and Tang Dynasties."
Lu Fei is serious, just like Warner has HBO, and Viconyam has Paramount. In addition to theaters, variety shows, movies, and TV series, Han and Tang are not enough. It is best to have their own TV station.
After all, it is impossible to achieve in the Mainland and Bay.
"But it is said that there is serious internal fighting in TVB. It is divided into several factions, and artists also take sides. They are fighting to be the queen and the king..."
"Hey, Mr. Gao, do you still know about TVB?"
"You're laughing at me again!"
Gao Yuanyuan patted him coquettishly.
"I have already checked out the bottom for you, that is, Le Yiling, Zeng Lizhen, Liang Shusheng, and Chen Zhiyun. Except for a few artists who have no roots or sect, most of the artists are from these four people."
Lu Fei smiled and said: "But if we really have to deal with him, it's just one of Le Yiling and Zeng Lizhen."
"What about the other two?"
"Liang Jiashu is almost old and will be able to retire in one or two years. This faction can be won over. As for Chen Zhiyun..."
"He seems to be TVB's TVB treasure, right?"
"Yes, Li Yaoxiang, Charmaine Sheh, Yang Yi, Chen Minzhi, and Yang Siqi are all his people, but now he has a strong desire to go north to make money." Lu Fei said with a smile, "There are still many talents in our film and television dramas.
Are you lacking supporting roles? Arrange a few for him."
"Would they be unwilling?"
Gao Yuanyuan highlighted She Shiman and Yang Yi.
"Who would have trouble with money? Most actors at TVB are paid dead wages. As long as Han and Tang show a little bit of work and give it to them, it will be a high salary. It can be regarded as an increase in benefits."
"That's true. In "Step by Step", we cast Zheng Jiaying, Liu Songren and others, and their acting skills are very good."
"We should treat going north to make money as a special benefit. If we want resources, we should be obedient. When we go north, we should divide and control them, defeat them one by one, and hand over these artists to Chang Jihong and Wang Jinghua. Their management company will not
Do they all have our shares?”
"But it seems that such resources are not enough."
Gao Yuanyuan frowned and counted them carefully with her fingers.
The TV series that will be launched this year include Jing Tian’s "The Myth", Liu Shishi's "Step by Step", and those in preparation include "The Legend of Zhen Huan", "Xuanyuan Sword", "Nirvana in Fire"...
In addition to the movies currently being filmed, "Source Code", "Wulin Gaiden", "The Piano", "Single Man and Woman", "Spring Knife", there are also "Avengers", "Twilight", "Insidious" in Hollywood.
”, of course, is a horror film by James Wan.
Thanks to Zeng Li and Qin Hailu's transition to production, the Han and Tang Dynasties were able to concentrate their resources on the four little Huadans, which are actually Yang Mi, Jing Tian, and Liu Shishi. Liu Yifei is in the stage of fending for himself. Is it Nirvana or Buddhism?
, it’s all up to you.
"It's definitely not possible to rely on TV series alone."
Lu Feiyang raised his hand and one of the purposes of acquiring TVB was to create variety shows dominated after the Han and Tang Dynasties, which did not need to be linked to a certain TV station. There were Penguin, Kiwi, etc. online, and TVB offline.
"A good variety show is one of the best. Now we and Lychee Channel will launch a dating variety show called "If You Are the One"."
Gao Yuanyuan stopped massaging her hands.
"What are the advantages of variety shows? It is the convenience and homogeneity. If our variety shows are successful, we can move them to Japan and South Korea. If Japanese and Korean variety shows become popular, we can also introduce them. We are not very good at it in China. Let's give it a try in the Han and Tang Dynasties.
Like this." Lu Fei said three words in one breath.
One is "Running Brothers". Except for Deng Chao, Wang Baoqiang and Wang Zulan, Li Chen and Zeng Xiaoxian can all be replaced. As for the running goddess, Jing Tian will naturally be left to it.
One is "Where Are We Going, Dad", in which celebrities take their children to visit poverty alleviation villages such as Feigou, Penguin, Logic, etc., and they are paired up with the mainland, Hong Kong and Taiwan, and choose the suitable second-generation stars.
The last one is "Eternal Sound". The first season is dedicated to the "Hong Kong Island Season" inherited from the Hong Kong Philharmonic Orchestra, focusing on nostalgia.
As for "I Am a Singer" and "Flowers and Boys", these milestone programs that pushed Mango Channel to the top will be kept for now.
The bombs were released one after another, allowing TVB and Han and Tang to join forces to help Penguin's streaming media flow unimpeded across the Taiwan Straits, three places, and even throughout Southeast Asia! It was rampant and domineering!
"Okay, the fox's tail is finally exposed! I asked you why you suddenly acquired TVB on a whim. It turns out it's for your Penguin and Penguin streaming media!"
Gao Yuanyuan stretched out her hand and grabbed it meaningfully.
"Hiss~"
Lu Fei took a breath: "Those are just incidental, TVB is just a surprise for you and Han Tang!"
"snort!"
Gao Yuanyuan's eyes were complicated, and her intuition told her that these variety shows have a high chance of success, "How did you come up with these?"
"Hey, how about you just say these?"
Lu Fei blinked his right eye.
Gao Yuanyuan clarified her thoughts and frowned: "It's good, it's good. There are so many variety shows. This is the first time for the TVB and Hantang teams to cooperate. I'm afraid..."
"We can also bring in those from the mainland. With the shell of TVB, we can be on an equal footing when cooperating with TV stations like Mango Channel in the name of 'cultural exchanges between the two places'. Of course, we can also ask the Bangzi Variety Show team to come and help...
"
"Well, "Where Are We Going, Dad" is a bit difficult. There may not be that many second-generation celebrities of the right age, and their parents may not be willing to let their children run around the country."
"Running is a must. You must have Hong Kong, but most of them must choose the mainland." Lu Fei raised his lips, "When the time is right, we can also hold a Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area Spring Festival Gala during the Spring Festival."
"Oh, it turns out you bought TVB because of politics..."
Gao Yuanyuan suddenly realized.
"Of course, otherwise I really don't like the small market like Xiangjiang, and I wouldn't have spent more than 6 billion Hong Kong dollars."
Lu Fei shrugged.
The zz played by foreigners is correct, too low-level.
What Mr. Lu plays is advanced and correct!
"I understand, I won't let anyone ruin your business, whether it's TVB or Hong Kong. If anyone disagrees, I will destroy it!" Gao Yuanyuan's eyes became extremely sharp.
So scary~
There is a kind of darkening Zhou Zhiruo's beauty, I like it.
Lu Fei turned over and the dragon entered the sea like a fish in water.
Hong Kong itself does not have much talent. It relied on the influx of a large number of mainland talents to create the glory of Hong Kong's golden age. Now it is the turn of domestic entertainment to attract talents from Hong Kong.
If there are no people in the circle, is it still a circle?
If you are still stubborn, don’t blame the Han and Tang Dynasties for being ruthless.
The next day, I don’t know where the news leaked out, and the news of Mr. Lu’s acquisition of TVB made the headlines of Hong Kong media.
Suddenly, the entire Hong Kong area was shaken.
The entire Hong Kong city was also shocked. Mr. Lu was so frightened that he swallowed up Xiangjiang Telecom, took over Octopus, and set his sights on TVB. After TVB, what will be next?
In fact, many industries in Hong Kong welcome mainland capital, such as the banking and insurance industries, but when it comes to the media industry, some people's sensitive nerves will become tense and they will pay close attention.
"The finale of TVB? A source revealed that Li Jiajie, the vice president of Sun Hung Kai who planned to acquire TVB, learned that the richest man Lu was also interested in TVB, so he immediately canceled the plan and handed it over to someone else."
"The 'Stock God' has arrived, and TVB's stock price soared 11% at the opening."
"JP Morgan analysts said that the consortium headed by Lu Fei has taken over TVB and will strengthen its ties with the mainland and develop the streaming media business. It is expected to reach a higher level in the future and there is a lot of room for upside. It is recommended to 'buy' TVB stocks
.”
"TVB stars say they are not afraid of changing owners."
“…”
The news has repeatedly reported that the Hong Kong entertainment industry, especially the television industry, is highly nervous. ATV, which has always been in the shadow of TVB, is urgently discussing countermeasures as if it is facing a formidable enemy.
Of course, there is also Li Zekai.
PCCW has pay TV stations, and this year the Hong Kong government introduced a new free TV license plan. As long as your own TV station gets a license, you can get a share of the free market and compete with TVB, Phoenix, ATV and other established TV stations.
But now, things have changed!
"Lu Fei, you are a street boy! Why do you always have trouble with me! Did I dig up your ancestral graves? I am attacking your mother-in-law!"
Li Zekai was furious and his face turned red.
My own pay TV station is not as good as TVB in terms of strength. Now that Lu Fei is in charge, it has Penguin, Han and Tang, and the blessing of Xiangjiang Telecom, it is even more incomparable!
Can I handle this?
When thinking about the bleak prospects of his media career, Li Zekai yelled: "It's intentional! It's definitely intentional!"
"The acquisition of TVB is definitely to deal with me!"
"I have already compensated you for Xiangjiang Telecom! I have given you my house! I have lost everything including my dignity and pride to you! Why are you still unwilling to let me go! Why do you have to kill them all!"
"Is it just because I am Li Huanggua's son?"
Li Zekai completely broke his guard and threw the bottle to the ground.
With a bang, it shattered on the ground.
He didn't know how long it took before he slowly regained his composure from the panic. Reason told him that he must find a way to save himself.
"What should I do, what should I do?"
Li Zekai was pacing back and forth, and suddenly an idea flashed, "TVB is the TVB of Xiangjiang people, how can it be left to an outsider? If I can unite with other people, step in and acquire TVB..."
As soon as I thought about this, my thoughts completely opened up!
Lu Fei, you forced me to do this!
Who should we turn to for cooperation? Who has the financial resources?
Li Zekai picked up a pen and wrote down a name on the crumpled newspaper. The first one was Chen Guoqiang, known as the "Shell King" of Hong Kong.
In addition to being rich, the key is that he has a deep connection with his family.
He got his start by becoming the royal contractor of Cheung Kong Holdings. Li Huanggua often helped Chen Guoqiang to make a fortune. When PCCW was founded, Chen Guoqiang also helped him a lot.
The second, the third...
Finally, he wrote "Deer Cloud" and paused.
ps: In reality, TVB was acquired by Chen Guoqiang, Wang Xuehong and financial funds, with Chen Guoqiang as the leader.
