The scandals between Kang Jianfei and various actresses are getting more and more intense. Everyone is accustomed to this kind of gossip news, but the photos of several illegitimate children and illegitimate daughters exposed by Next Weekly still attracted the attention of countless people.
In addition, several reporters from Next Weekly had their hands amputated, and many celebrities who had been blackmailed by the magazine were dragged into the water. This caused gossip to spread everywhere, and Kang Jianfei's photo was upgraded from the entertainment page to the front page headline.
Among many newspapers' carnival-style reports on gossipy news, the high-profile South China Morning Post took a different approach and spent a lot of energy investigating and reporting on Kang Jianfei's wealth:
"An American newspaper recently estimated that Kang Jianfei's personal net worth is at least US$3 billion. After detailed investigation by this newspaper, this figure is obviously too conservative."
"Kang Jianfei's biggest fortune is his shares in Paramount Pictures. Based on Paramount's stock price at the end of April, the market value was US$2.33 billion. During the global stock market crash in 1987, Kang Jianfei only spent US$1.7 billion to acquire these shares.
, a net profit of US$530 million in more than 3 years.”
"Kang Jianfei's second largest wealth is the Oriental Culture and Entertainment Group and its subsidiaries in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Macau and South Korea. The value of these companies is seriously underestimated by Americans, including TV stations, film and television companies, entertainment agencies, and studios.
, theaters, animation, newspapers, magazines, publishing houses, and record companies, constitute a behemoth like Oriental Culture and Entertainment Group, and the development of Tseung Kwan O Studios even involves real estate."
"According to incomplete statistics, Oriental Culture and Entertainment Group is valued at at least 10 billion Hong Kong dollars (1.2 billion US dollars), and Kang Jianfei holds more than 70% of the shares in each subsidiary. Among them, the construction of Tseung Kwan O Film and Television City is a classic investment case. With the
The second phase of the Tseung Kwan O New Town project was successfully completed, the bay reclamation project and the development of the city center were settled. The land around Tseung Kwan O has doubled since the year before last. The land purchased by Kang Jianfei in Tseung Kwan O cost a total of 50 million twice. Now it has
Appreciated to nearly HK$1 billion."
"Another major move of Kang Jianfei's was to invest in Japan's Sega game company. With the hot sales of 16-bit home game consoles and the popularity of many games such as "The King of Fighters", Sega has firmly established itself as the world's second largest game giant.
The stock was listed as the first-class stock on the Tokyo Stock Exchange in March last year. The market value of Sega shares held by Kang Jianfei was US$480 million. This was the data after the Japanese stock market bubble burst in October last year. In December of the previous year,
, the highest value of Kang Jianfei’s Sega shares is US$790 million.”
"In addition, Kang Jianfei also has an Oriental Film Company in the United States. This is an independent film company that also operates film distribution business. At least three Hong Kong films are sold to the United States for screening every year. Since Oriental Film Company is not listed on the stock market,
, so like Oriental Culture and Entertainment Group, we can only roughly estimate its company value. Only five movies, "Home Alone 1", "Terminator 1, 2", "Out of Africa" and "Rain Man", have a global box office
The total amount has exceeded 1 billion US dollars, which is also one of the sources of funds for Kang Jianfei to acquire 37% of Paramount shares. Oriental Film Company is worth at least 200 million US dollars, among which the related copyrights of the "Terminator" series of movies have made Hollywood giants covetous.
.”
"Kang Jianfei also has a computer special effects company called Digital Domain. This company has a strong special effects team and is the second largest film special effects company in Hollywood after Industrial Light and Magic. Its specific value cannot be estimated."
"As we all know, Kang Jianfei has a good relationship with mainland China. He also has a large number of investments in the mainland, including film and television, records, theaters, department stores, food and tourism industries. The value of these industries is also impossible to estimate."
"Based on the above statistics, Kang Jianfei's personal wealth should be around US$3.8 billion (excluding his mainland property, digital special effects company and hidden wealth). He is the well-deserved richest man in Hong Kong. Far more than Li Jiacheng, who has a net worth of US$2.8 billion."
Originally, the scandalous news about Kang Jianfei was aroused, and his methods of picking up girls in mansions were also exposed. The villas worth tens of millions and hundreds of millions owned by Guan Zhilin, Zhao Yazhi, Zhong Chuhong and others made many women envious.
Because there were so many female celebrities involved, they had countless fans. Many people heard that their goddesses had become other people's mistresses and had given birth to illegitimate children, so they all joined the crusade against Kang Jianfei.
.
Of course, it was just verbal abuse. I don’t know how many men envied Kang Jianfei’s sexual fortune. I don’t know how many women fantasized about being kept and raised by Kang Jianfei - Kang Jianfei’s methods of picking up girls were too generous, just giving him a house and a car.
At this moment, the news from the South China Morning Post came out, saying that Kang Jianfei's personal wealth surpassed that of Li Ka-shing, and he became the richest man in Hong Kong with a net worth of US$3.8 billion.
This is a society that laughs at the poor but not at prostitution. If an ordinary businessman picks up many female stars and gives birth to illegitimate children, he will probably be scolded for being carefree and irresponsible. But if the target is the richest man in Hong Kong, well, that's
If you are not convinced by this person’s ability, why don’t you give it a try?
The readers of the "South China Morning Post" are all elites who can speak English. It was only when its articles were reprinted by popular newspapers that it aroused the admiration of Hong Kong citizens.
In fact, the South China Morning Post compared the net worth of Kang Jianfei and Li Jiacheng. In order to create explosive news, it deliberately ignored the latter's family fortune and the huge resources at his disposal.
Although Li Jiacheng's personal assets are less than 3 billion U.S. dollars, Hutchison Whampoa and Cheung Kong Holdings, which he controls, are both large groups with a market value of nearly 100 billion Hong Kong dollars, and they are both operating people's livelihood industries. The funds and political resources he can mobilize are enough to crush Kang Jianfei.
, and Li Jiacheng’s two sons are also rich men with a net worth of hundreds of millions of dollars, and his confidante Zhou Moumou has a net worth of hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars.
But ordinary citizens don't know this. They only know that Kang Jianfei's personal wealth surpassed that of Li Chaoren, and the new richest man in Hong Kong was born.
Compared with Li Jiacheng's decades of business, Kang Jianfei has only been in Hong Kong for 12 years. This myth of wealth is more popular among the general public.
"A new generation of entertainment tycoons has emerged, and the throne of Hong Kong's richest man has changed."
“Twelve years of investment have been successful, let’s discuss Kang Jianfei’s wealth myth.”
"Wong Tai Sin's analysis of Kang Jianfei's destiny: having many children and multiple wives will lead to peach blossoms."
"Li Jiaxin is fascinated by Kang Jianfei's charm and is willing to be the woman behind him."
"..."
It seems that overnight, the direction of public opinion has changed. The media is talking about Kang Jianfei's fortune. His scandals with many female stars have become romantic affairs that highlight his masculine charm.
As for the incident of illegitimate children and illegitimate daughters, it is not worth mentioning. Kang Jianfei has already thought of the reasons: He is the richest man in Hong Kong, and if he doesn't have more children, who will inherit the family fortune in the future?
Originally, Kang Jianfei felt guilty, feeling that the illegitimate child incident and the spread of the scandal would damage the image and reputation of Zhong Chuhong, Guan Zhilin and others. However, due to the subsequent impact of the "South China Morning Post" wealth article, Kang Jianfei's women
They actually have a halo. Although many people still say that they are greedy for wealth, the lover of the richest man has a different charm.
The one who has attracted the most attention is He Chaoqiong. This gambling king's daughter is the legal wife of Kang Jianfei and the queen of the new richest man in Hong Kong. Their son Kang Yuxin has also become the target of reporters' 24-hour tracking, which makes the child confused.
He couldn't even go to kindergarten, so he had to hire tutors to study at home.
King He Gambling originally wanted to marry his daughter to Kang Jianfei, mainly because of Kang Jianfei's development potential and business talent, and secondly because of Kang Jianfei's close relationship with the mainland. The Macau Satellite TV they collaborated with has developed rapidly, and now has an annual advertising revenue of 80 million.
US dollars, the company's valuation has exceeded US$400 million, greatly exceeding He Gambling's original expectations.
(Don’t think it’s too outrageous. In 1993, Little Superman sold 63% of the shares of Satellite TV Chinese Channel for more than 500 million U.S. dollars. Kang Jianfei built Macau Satellite TV into Satellite TV Chinese Channel a few years in advance, almost dominating satellite TV in Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Southeast Asia.
The market is more profitable than the established Phoenix TV and TVB. However, the current advertising market is not that big yet. After two years of rapid economic development of the Four Asian Tigers, Macau Satellite TV’s revenue is likely to double.)
How much does He Gambling King's casino make every year?
Macau Satellite TV's annual advertising revenue of nearly 100 million US dollars made He Gambling's impression of Kang Jianfei so good that Kang Jianfei's behavior of not holding a public wedding was magnanimously ignored by He Gambling King.
Now that Kang Jianfei has been promoted to the richest man in Hong Kong, King He Du feels even more proud. It shows that he has good vision. He was sure that this young man would have great achievements a few years ago, so he married off his precious daughter.
"Husband, Dad is having a banquet next week, will you go or not?" He Chaoqiong asked while flipping through his son's homework.
"I'm going to France in a few days." Kang Jianfei didn't take his eyes off the concept drawing of a dinosaur in his hand. This was an image of a dinosaur that he drew in cooperation with James Cameron.
"Can you spare half a day?" He Chaoqiong sat over and rubbed his shoulders and said coquettishly. Although after working in the company, He Chaoqiong was evolving towards a strong woman, but she still behaved like a housewife at home. With Kang Jianfei,
They are also very feminine together.
Kang Jianfei had never been to his father-in-law's side very often. He rarely even visited during the Christmas and Spring Festivals. Kang Jianfei thought about it and agreed: "Okay, I'll go to France two days later."
He Chaoqiong became happy and lay on Kang Jianfei's shoulder and kissed him as a reward.
Things are going great for Kang Jianfei, but Jimmy Lai, the boss of Next Weekly, is furious.
"What? Two more reporters resigned today!" Li Zhiying glared at his female secretary angrily.
The secretary was so frightened that she couldn't speak clearly: "Yes... yes."
Jimmy Lai cursed: "A bunch of unfamiliar white sheep wolves, which newspaper in Hong Kong offers a higher salary than me? If they take a good photo, the bonus I give them is enough to work for several years, and now they are all making trouble."
I’m going to resign!”
The reason why reporters are clamoring to resign is very simple. Eight reporters from Next Weekly lost their hands within a week, and the remaining reporters are trembling when they go out. (To be continued) r655
