Baifanyu patted his chest and said, "Don't think I'm a big boss, but I know a lot of Nanyang merchants.
Moreover, there are so many wealthy people from Southeast Asia who come to Hong Kong to invest in Hong Kong Island, but they can’t find a way to make money even with their banknotes.
As long as you give them a promising money-making project, and it is still a legitimate way, if I go out and shout, at least ten or eight rich people will come to my house to block me."
Fu Xiangsen was startled and looked back at Guo Zhenhua. Gao Xinxin hurriedly walked to the future father-in-law and whispered, "Dad, I heard from my cousin that this old Mr. Bai is a famous moneymaker with assets worth at least tens of millions.
The most important thing is that his son-in-law is Lei Luo, the chief inspector on Hong Kong Island."
Fu Xiangsen's eyes lit up and he secretly thought that he had made a mistake.
Then, for the first time, I began to pay attention to my daughter-in-law’s family background and relationships.
He also became enthusiastic about Chu Xiangqian's attitude. He stood up and cupped his hands and said, "Chu Sheng, Bai Sheng, please Haihan, I am in the first place and all my thoughts are on the marriage between Quanzi and my future wife.
It is really a sin to show too much neglect."
Baifanyu waved his hands carelessly, he indeed had the capital to ignore the rich people in Southeast Asia.
After all, Nanyang is so big and there are so many wealthy Chinese, so there are naturally more collaborators to choose from.
Besides, he doesn't rely on the Nanyang market to make money, so he doesn't need to be polite to Fu Xiangsen.
Chu Xiangqian thought for a while, even if he didn't cooperate with the Fu family, it would be good to get some news from him first.
If we can reach an agreement, it will naturally be done in a mature way rather than raw.
After politely returning the gift and saying a few polite words, Fu Xiangsen thought for a moment and said, "Take Kuala Lumpur, the Lion City, and Bangkok as examples. In the early years, a 300-seat cinema could be built with about HK$200,000.<
/p>
It’s just that the situation is a bit unstable now, and many Chinese in Vietnam and neighboring countries are tightening their business.
Some simply transferred their business to cities such as the Lion City, Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia and Manila in the Philippines.
On the contrary, the real estate industry, which was supposed to reduce prices due to the unstable situation, has seen an upward trend.
I estimate that I want to open cinemas in the Lion City, Kuala Lumpur, Manila, and Bangkok. The first three cities should cost 250,000 to 300,000 Hong Kong dollars.
Over in Bangkok, it may only cost 150,000 to 200,000."
Chu Xiangqian knew that the unstable situation that Old Man Fu mentioned was referring to the Vietnam Liberation War.
Thailand, which is so close, is indeed not a suitable investment location in the eyes of many people these days.
It is normal thinking for Chinese people in Southeast Asia to go to the Philippines, Malay and Lion City to invest and avoid risks.
But Chu Xiangqian knew that even when Vietnam was at its most arrogant, it would be 20 years later.
Moreover, it was impossible for the Chinese dynasty at that time to allow the Vietnamese to unify the southeastern peninsula.
Chu Qianqian nodded to Old Man Fu, turned to look at Baifanyu and asked, "Uncle, how much does a cinema here on Hong Kong Island cost?"
Baifanyu thought for a moment, and he really didn't know the specifics, but if he thought about it, if he bought a ready-made shopping mall or built a movie theater on an empty land, it would cost about 400,000 to 500,000 yuan, right?
Chu Xiangqian secretly said that when Shaw Brothers sold its theater chain in the 1980s, the price seemed to be 300 million.
However, it failed to sell out the first time, so Shao Liushu saved it himself, and continued to persevere. Only four leading theaters were left, and the others were leased to Debao.
In other words, in just over 20 years, land prices have increased 7 to 80 times.
Then Chu Xiangqian thought that when Shaw Brothers bought the Clear Water Bay Cinema in the 1950s, they only spent 320,000 on the land. When Clear Water Bay was sold in the new millennium, the price was 6.2 billion.
Of course, the outcry was an outcry, and only 1.5 billion was actually sold.
But the problem is not that no one buys it, but that many people in Hong Kong oppose the demolition of the Clear Water Bay studio into villas and residential buildings.
Otherwise, for the first bid of 11.5 billion, someone would actually be willing to negotiate.
It's a pity that the price was negotiated the first two times, but it encountered public opposition. After more than ten years of delay, this treasure land was finally sold for only 1.5 billion.
It can be said that the loss is huge.
But if it is sold before the New Year, the Clear Water Bay studio will definitely sell 7 to 8 billion.
Damn it, Chu Xiangqian has made up his mind this time to buy more land and properties on Hong Kong Island.
Looking at Baifanyu, he said, "Uncle, I will use 3 million Hong Kong dollars to build 6 cinemas, and you will use 2 million to build 4.
Our property rights belong to each of us, but how about joining together to form a theater alliance?"
Baifanyu doesn’t mind spending 200 for fun. After all, this is buying property, not renting someone else’s house.
Just looking forward to the appreciation of real estate is a good investment.
In addition, there are many subordinates. If you can make money, it will be a good thing for yourself and your subordinates.
"Can you really make money?"
Chu shrugged forward, "How about we make an agreement or sign a contract.
If you don’t want those four cinemas in three years, how about I buy them for 3 million?"
"Not very good", Baifanyu is not stupid. Although he earned 1 million in three years and the rate of return is not low, he can tell Chu Xiangqian's thoughts at a glance.
He said, "Your uncle and I are such courageous people. Since we are doing business, there is no way to make a profit without losing money.
Isn’t it just 2 million? I’ll just play with you.”
Chu Qianqian gave Baifanyu a blank look. When the old guy saw his expression, he immediately knew that he had made the right bet.
Seeing Chu Qianqian shrinking in front of him for the first time, his molars were exposed when he smiled.
Chu Qianqian ignored him, looked at Fu Xiangsen and said, "Mr. Fu, in one month, I will send you 1 million Hong Kong dollars to your door. You can help me build or directly buy ready-made floors in the Lion City and Kuala Lumpur.
4 movies.
In return, the property rights will belong to me. These four cinemas will be managed by the Fu family in the next three years, and each of us will receive half of the profits.
If the annual profit of each cinema is less than HK$50,000, I will make up for the HK$25,000 that your family should receive."
The meaning of this is very clear, guaranteeing an income of HK$100,000 for each Fu family.
For the Fu family, this not only ensures a steady profit, but also enables them to observe the market conditions of the cinema chain in three years to decide whether to follow up and open cinemas in the future.
And Chu Xiangqian made it clear that he wanted to use money to build a Southeast Asian theater chain.
Moreover, Chu Qianqian's choice of the Lion City and Kuala Lumpur really stimulated Fu Xiangsen. He thought about it and said, "I originally intended to increase my business in the Lion City and Kuala Lumpur.
In this case, why don't I also pay 1 million Hong Kong dollars, and we will jointly open 8 movie theaters in Kuala Lumpur, the Lion City, with one and a half shares.
But the management belongs to the Fu family."
Chu Qianqian sneered in his heart, it was obvious that he was taking advantage of himself.
But Chu Xiangqian had to agree because he had no one to go to the two cities to manage movie theaters.
Then I thought about it, my goal from the beginning was to develop overseas box office and take half of the shares. In fact, I have already exceeded my goal.
And to put it bluntly, whether theater chains can make money depends on movies.
And Chu Xiangqian is confident enough that the movies he makes will definitely have a market.
After looking at Baifanyu, the old man stopped talking.
Chu Xiangqian laughed. If he could use two million to play with him, there was no reason for him to contribute money and effort when he couldn't see the future clearly.
"Okay, I will raise the money within a month. We will set up a company account together and deposit it in a designated bank. We will also hire a law firm and accountant to supervise and handle legal issues."
Seeing what Chu Xiangqian said, Old Man Fu secretly thought that it looked like this guy was not an easy deceiver.
The general negotiation is completed, now the question is, where to find the movie to play.
Chu Qianqian looked at Guo Zhenhua, "Mr. Guo, are you interested in becoming a movie star?"
Guo Zhenhua shook his head without thinking and asked him to be the cook. That was full of confidence.
It would be easy to let him live in the street. After all, he has been the boss for less than a year, so he already has experience in what the short mules think and how to deal with.
But when you think about being a star, you feel unsure.
"I'll give you a price of 1,000 yuan and help me make a movie. It will take no more than 3 months. If you lose money in the end, it has nothing to do with you.
If it works, just nod, if not, I’ll find someone else.”
After finishing speaking, without waiting for Guo Zhenhua's agreement, Chu Xiangqian said to Baifanyu and Fu Xiangsen, "Two old gentlemen, if you are not confident, you can wait.
I will make my own movies and build theater chains, and then I will decide after seeing the first movie and the box office."
Fu Xiangsen thinks this is the safe way, but Baifanyu is different from a regular businessman like him.
If you are right, you have to take a gamble. When Lei Luo competed for Inspector Zong Hua last year, Bai Fanyu said that he would give up all his wealth and let Lei Luo take a gamble.
At that time, Baifanyu's net worth was only seven to eight million.
In just over a year, his net worth has at least doubled.
Making money is like running water, flowing towards his house.
"We agreed that you would invest 3 million and I would invest 2 million. Even if it doesn't work out and the ready-made real estate is sold, we won't lose much.
When the time comes, you can help uncle get a tiger and this matter will be over."
The expressions of Fu Xiangsen and Fu Jie, father and son, suddenly turned bad.
Chu Xiangqian said hurriedly, "Mr. Fu, I sincerely cooperate, and naturally I don't want to cause disunity in the future just because of a little disagreement.
So, it’s okay if you want to wait, but once you cooperate, if you want to go back on it, just follow the business rules.”
Fu Xiangsen's expression improved, "Okay, I'll take the gamble with Chu Sheng, but I'm older after all, and I have no problem sitting in the Lion City, but to actually take care of it, I have to let my Ajie do it.
It can be regarded as a kind of test and training for him. If there is any shortcoming, I will be responsible for taking care of it.
But please also ask Chu Sheng to take him with you."
"Don't don't stop", where is Chu Qianyou brought a hairy boy, "Learn from each other, and let's talk about Fu Gongzi, I have to ask him to take care of me more."
I thought Fu Jie would show a proud expression, but I didn't expect that this guy is indeed a talent.
He stood up hurriedly and said, "Chu Sheng, if it's a legal issue, I know a thing or two about it. I really don't understand the specific business and human behavior. Please give me some advice.
And I really want to learn something from Chu Sheng."
After leaving the Victoria Hotel, Chu Qianqian threw the car keys to Baifanyu's men and got into his car again.
Baifanyu didn't hesitate and asked seriously, "Are you really sure you can make a good movie?"
Chu Xiangqian smiled and said, "Uncle, if you ask me to make a movie, that's nonsense.
But to put it bluntly, let me design the fighting plot and actual operations. I dare say that no one in Hong Kong is better than me.
As long as the fight is good and I am famous now, I believe there will be young people willing to watch the movie.
Or before the movie was released, I paid the American boxing champion to come over for a fight, and the popularity started.
As for winning or losing, I’m not bragging, when a boxer fights, there are too many tricks used at the same time.”
Baifanyu and his confidants were startled, and then laughed out loud.
But if you think about it seriously, the success rate of this is indeed very high.
The worry in my heart disappeared immediately. Instead, the more I thought about it, the more I felt that it would definitely happen.
"How about I also take a share in the cost of making a movie?"
Chu Xiangqian rolled his eyes angrily, but Baifanyu was so supportive of him just now, so his refusal was unjustifiable.
He rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "Uncle, just for my family to make movies, there won't be enough for cinemas to show them. And there are some types of movies that I definitely can't make.
But uncle, you asked someone to come forward and set up a film company to make romance-type movies. That is your strong point. Moreover, this kind of movie requires less investment and earns a lot of profit.
With one million spent, 10 movies can be made. As long as one becomes a hit, at least half of the investment will be earned.
No matter how bad the results of the other 9 movies are, the total of 9 movies can still make 500,000 yuan.
Won’t this investment be repaid?
Two or three of them became popular, and one or two million would be earned if sold in Hong Kong. If they were sent to Southeast Asia, South Korea and other island countries, they could earn back two to three million."
Baifanyu and his men were breathing heavily as they listened.
The nightclub Lei Luo secretly shares in only earns four to five million a year, and he can earn two to three million just by making movies and finding beautiful girls to show their shoulders and mountains.
When I think about it, I think this business is going to be successful.
Baifanyu patted Chu Qianqian's arm excitedly, "Chu, don't tell me, I will listen to you about the movie from now on."
Chu Qianqian murmured in his heart, this damn old man is very smart. When he gains power, he must fulfill his corresponding obligations.
If I didn’t make any money, I wouldn’t be able to explain it to someone else.
However, if you think about it carefully, what you have to worry about is that you can't make too much money.
If you take out the mature Kung Fu movies from the mid to late 1970s, they will definitely be able to crush the martial arts movies of this year.
As for romantic movies, Chu Xiangqian just thought about it, and at least dozens of such popular movies appeared in his mind.
After thinking about it, I immediately decided that just like when releasing records in the future, with one or two good songs plus eight, nine, or ten songs, you can create a record with great sales potential.
And just like what I said before, every one of the 7 or 8 fake romantic movies can sell more than 100,000 or 200,000 yuan at the box office after being released in Hong Kong Island and Southeast Asia.
If you have one point with the theater chain, you can basically protect your capital.
No, theater chains are actually quite strong these days.
They don't share the box office with you, but ask you to spend money to buy broadcast time.
Depending on the size and location of the cinema, the rental price ranges from 500 to 1,000 per day, which is a guaranteed profit.
Of course, it is impossible for movie theaters to have people willing to pay this price to buy the broadcast rights every day.
Otherwise, Hong Kong Island would have been full of movie theaters.
Waiting for Hong Kong movies to break box office records time and time again, and the movies ranked second to tenth are also making huge profits.
Only because of profit, theater chains will start to ask for box office sharing.
This is also a good thing for film companies, because no one can be sure how much money they will make from the movies they make.
By canceling the theater guarantee system, the risks for film companies will be reduced.
"Okay, I'll help you keep an eye on it for a year or two, and when uncle makes back the money he invested, and then doubles the profit, uncle, you can hire someone else."
"No," Baifanyu immediately quit, "If I really earn back my investment, I will also earn double the investment income.
Uncle will immediately give you half of the shares of the film company. If you have money, everyone can make money, and you don’t have to worry about ruining your reputation, right?"
Chu Qianqian was startled, and secretly cursed that he was indeed a big fisherman who could prosper in this era.
Just in terms of determination and decisiveness, I am far behind him.
He shook his head and gave a thumbs up to Baifanyu, "Uncle, you are so awesome. I don't even know how to reject you."
Baifanyu burst into laughter immediately, and the laughter was full of pride.
I fell in love with Lei Luo back then, and now Lei Luo is the Inspector General, so I can say that he was a hero for a while.
Now that I have fallen in love with Chu Xiangqian, if he didn’t have a daughter, I would definitely marry her to him immediately.
Since the idea of marriage cannot be achieved, then use benefits and assistance to win over.
In the future, this investment may be bigger than Lei Luo.
After all, Hong Kong Island is too small compared to the mainland, and there are too many uncertainties.
After getting off Baifanyu's car, Chu Xiangqian drove his own car and went home first to wait for the master and his wife to rest.
Then I drove to the Yau Ma Tei Police Station. Sure enough, even if Wallace had a broken head, he didn't want to stay in the hospital.
Seeing Chu Qianqian, Wallace's face lit up with joy, then with a sullen expression, he invited him into his office.
After personally pouring a cup of coffee for Chu Qianqian, he said with a gloomy face, "Chu, the people from the evidence department have confirmed that someone has tampered with my car."
Chu Qianqian would not answer stupidly, but frowned and asked, "What hands and feet?"
"Someone used a tool to loosen the brake cable of my car. After the car was started, there was no problem at first, but as long as I braked too many times, the brake cable would break or fall off."
Chu Xiangqian immediately pretended to be surprised, "Do you want your life?"
Wallace nodded solemnly, and Chu Qianqian changed his mind and thought that in the current situation, he didn't seem to have to kill Wallace.
It is better to guide him and become his own help.
When this old boy is no longer useful to him, he will be sent to prison. After all, this old boy helped people transport arms to Hong Kong Island, so he decided not to let him go easily.
"No, no," Chu Qianqian shook his head and whispered, "This should be a warning, otherwise if it were me, I would just put a bomb under your car."
Wallace was stunned for a moment, and then not only did he not become angry, but he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Chu Xiangqian guessed just by thinking about it that this ghost guy was most afraid of others taking his life.
Pretending to have a headache, he said, "Look, you have unintentionally offended someone, or hindered the financial path of a certain force."
