The scale of China Film's listing was not small. The deputy director of Optoelectronics and the director of the film bureau were all present, and each leader spoke one by one.
Tang An just sat down with others and showed off.
Even if the Han and Tang Dynasties were completely victorious in the second half of 2015 and once again swept the domestic film market, Tang An had no intention of mocking or quarreling with them.
Of course, Wang Zhongjun and Fan Luyuan exchanged a few strange words, but Tang An pushed them back.
Only losers are anxious. If you lose in the movie market, you just want to win it back with your mouth. This is to get angry and to gain confidence for yourself.
It was enough that Tang An came with a victor's attitude and led his people with great fanfare.
Just sitting in the audience, he became one of the centers of attention at the scene.
Compared with their heavy hearts and different thoughts, Tang An and the others were much more relaxed.
"The listing of China Film Group did not create a billionaire this time." Xu Zheng also joked.
Every time a film and television company goes public, in addition to company executives, there are always a group of stars, and directors benefit from this, with the exception of China Film.
Of course, this is decided by China Film Co., Ltd.'s interests.
Tang An smiled and said, "The dividends in the capital market have almost been eaten up. It is estimated that it will be in the last one or two years. Some time ago, I heard from the managing director of CITIC that the China Securities Regulatory Commission may impose restrictions on film, television, games, and the Internet.
Tutoring time and profit requirements may increase."
What?
Xu Zheng was shocked when he heard Tang An say this.
In addition to their salary, film and television investment, and advertising income, actors and directors make most of their income from the capital market. Any merger or acquisition can cost more than the salary of a few movies.
If listings in the film and television industry were to be restricted, that would be extremely bad news.
Not only Xu Zheng, no one wants to get more money. This matter affects the future of all middle and upper-class stars and directors in the industry.
Yang Mi immediately exclaimed, "What should I do? I'm planning to apply for GEM listing!"
"You really dare to think that you might as well come to Shanghai Stock Exchange next year to ring the bell." Tang An was speechless.
Yang Mi glared at Tang An angrily, "Why not? Many small companies are preparing to go public."
Deng Chaolai smoothed things over and said, "Mimi, your company must meet the requirements of the GEM, and there will be no problem in going public."
"This is not the same thing."
Tang An shook his head. Yang Mi's company must have a valuation of 2 to 3 billion. Many companies on the GEM do not have this market value. There are even many companies on the Main Board that do not have this market value.
"The industry dividends have been eaten up by several major companies, especially small and medium-sized film and television companies. It will become increasingly difficult for them to survive in the capital market. There are signs of this now. Heli Chenguang, who is behind Guo Jinming, has postponed the launch of the New OTC Market.
We plan to wait until "Grand Trail" is released next year before listing on the New Third Board, and the listing of Jiangning Happy Blue Ocean has also been postponed until next year."
Those in the front eat meat, those in the back drink soup, and those in the back can't even drink soup.
Not only can't you drink the soup, but you can also easily burn your mouth.
Tang An looked around and happened to see Hong Tao, chairman of Happy Blue Ocean, and Wu Xiubo who was following him.
Tang An said to everyone, "Look over there, the listing of Happy Blue Ocean has been postponed. Wu Xiubo may suffer a lot of losses this time."
Everyone in the circle knows this, and Wu Xiubo often goes to Baoli Building and often visits, so they all know each other.
Wu Xiubo has a good friend named Wu Jiaxuan, who is the boss of Mengjiangwei Film and Television. They have a very close relationship. Mengjiangwei is also in Baoli Building and is a neighbor of Han and Tang Dynasties.
The main producer of "Strategic Alliance" is Alliance General Wei Film and Television, and this project is also in preparation. Both of them have also visited Han and Tang Dynasties to seek cooperation.
Tang An continued, "Wu Xiubo planned to spend 45 million to subscribe for 2% of the shares of Happy Blue Ocean in 2012, but he had no money, so he paid 5 million himself, took 2% of the shares as collateral, and borrowed 2% of the shares from a private company.
Borrowed 40 million.
Now everyone knows that as soon as a film and television company goes public, shareholders will make a fortune, but these 40 million will have 3 million in interest every year, and they were bought in 2012. If the borrowed money cannot be listed this year, they will have to wait one more year.
Coupled with the three-year lifting period, it can be cashed out in 2019. With an interest of more than 20 million, plus inflation, this investment can be said to be a stable loss."
This is the first time that everyone has heard of someone losing money as a result of investing in a film and television company that is about to go public.
In the past two years, many new film and television companies have opened, and some have closed down. However, almost all listed film and television companies have made huge profits.
Investing in a film and television company that is about to go public is a sure-fire deal.
But Wu Xiubo, who was sitting with Hong Tao over there, didn't look very good. It was obvious that he had lost money.
Tang An made the situation so serious, and coupled with the existing examples, Happy Blue Ocean is not a small company. It has been frustrated in going public, and their capital dreams are also wavering.
Seeing that they had become a little more rational and no longer thought about going public to make a fortune, Tang An smiled again and said, "The capital market environment will not be very good in the next few years, but as long as they have the strength, it will not be a problem. Hantang Pictures and Hantang Pictures
Tang Cinema will still have to go on the market next year. Forbidden City Media has a few of your films, so there will be no problem in putting them on the market in two years. As for each of you, it depends on the situation and you can do what you can."
When talking about the listing of Hantang Pictures, everyone couldn't help but get excited.
As the veterans of Hantang Group, they have made significant contributions to the group. They are also waiting for Hantang Pictures to be listed and get a piece of the pie.
And with Tang An's personality, he probably wouldn't be stingy in taking action.
You must know that back then, Huayi just gave away nearly 7.5% of the shares to his artists. With Hantang Pictures' goal of a market value of 100 billion, if he also gave out 7.5%, that would be 7.5 billion!
Although there were more stars and directors under the Han and Tang dynasties, the most important ones were Wu Ershan, Xu Zheng, and Ning Hao. Only the three of them got 15% of the shares of Forbidden City Media each.
Originally, Deng Chao could become the fourth, but "Villain Angel" failed to meet expectations.
Calculating an account in their minds, Xu Zheng and Ning Hao couldn't help but tremble in their hearts.
Back then, Tang An took 3% of Huayi's shares. Even if the two of them couldn't get that much, as long as they had 1%, it would still be one billion.
Xu Zheng and Ning Hao looked at each other, and soon the enthusiasm in their eyes receded slightly. One billion was too much, and they didn't dare to hope.
Even if Feng Xiaogang and Huayi signed a betting agreement, they could not get one billion. Zhou Xingchi and New Culture's bet got this figure, but that was a four-year performance bet, and there were still a lot of restrictions.
Most directors in the industry are envious of Feng Xiaogang and Zhou Xingchi, and it's not like they haven't thought about it.
But now, without betting or restrictions, you may get a similar amount of shares in a few months.
He is also a great director, but others have to sign a four- to five-year gambling agreement with various restrictions and risks, but he doesn't have to do anything to get the money.
Thinking about it makes me excited.
Tang An saw that they couldn't hide their joy. Most people these days don't work just for money. All their dreams are empty.
The subsequent listing of China Film Group went very smoothly. In less than a minute, it was directly locked at the daily limit. It was even crazier than the last time Wanda went public.
This is also inevitable. Huaguo Securities, CITIC, China Merchants Bank, Social Security Fund and other giants are jointly promoting it. Coupled with the name of China Film, it is not unusual for the market to rise to the limit in one minute.
However, the market value is only 40.3 billion. It can increase by 44% on the first day, and up to 10% every day after that. Even if it reaches the daily limit for seven or eight consecutive years, it will not reach the current market value of Wanda Film.
China Film Group has gone public, and after New Year's Day in early January, Tang An's Han and Tang Literature will also be listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.
As the first listed company of the Han and Tang Dynasties, Tang An naturally had to attend in person and brought a team of more than ten people from three major departments: the distribution department, the publicity and marketing department, and the development department.
Before the listing of Han and Tang Literature, Tang An had to finalize the establishment of a Southeast Asian publishing company with Li Ruigang.
The two parties will first have a preliminary negotiation, and then contact Yue Nan, Heguo, Singapore, Malaysia and other countries one by one, and strive to initially complete the laying of the distribution network in the southeast region in one year.
After getting off the plane and heading to the hotel in the car, the accompanying director of the distribution department, Cheng Hai, held a pile of documents and asked Tang An for instructions, "Chairman, do you have any other instructions regarding cooperation with Shaw Brothers?"
Tang An said, "Just bring someone to discuss this matter."
"Chairman, you are not attending?" Cheng Hai was stunned.
This is related to the layout of the distribution network throughout Southeast Asia, not just the city of Xiangjiang.
Tang An waved his hands and said, "Director Li and I have already negotiated the general direction. You just have to come forward for the rest. Director Li probably won't show up by then. He still has a lot of TVB issues."
"Just remember one thing, make concessions if you need to, and don't give in to anything that shouldn't be given. This cooperation must be led by us!"
"Okay Chairman, I will go talk to them tomorrow." Cheng Hai could only nod in agreement.
When Tang An arrived at the hotel, he went to see Wu Wen. The listing was imminent and he had to prepare.
The next day, Cheng Hai took teams from three departments to Shaw Brothers Pictures located on Wan Wan Avenue in Tseung Kwan O Industrial Park.
Looking at this prestigious film and television company, Cheng Hai was also deeply moved.
Before that, Cheng Hai worked in distribution at Oriental Dragon, from distribution specialist to regional director in charge of a province. Later, he cooperated with Bernard, and Oriental Dragon's distribution business was handed over to Bernard. Most of the business was the distribution of Xiangjiang movies. I have been to Xiangjiang often, and this is not the first time I have been to Shaw Brothers.
In the past, although Bernard had a monopoly on the distribution of most of Xiangjiang's films in the mainland, at that time, except for Bernard's top management, the middle management had always maintained a low profile in the face of large companies in Xiangjiang.
Facing Yinghuang and Huanya, it's not like Cheng Hai didn't keep a low profile. Although Shaw Brothers had long been in decline, when Cheng Hai came here ten years ago, he still kept a low profile.
But this time, in Cheng Hai's eyes, there was no difference between Shaw Brothers and small companies in the mainland. After getting off the car, he slightly raised his head and greeted the Shaw Brothers executives who came to greet them. Although he could not be said to be arrogant, he clearly regarded himself as
Put it in a higher position.
The Shaw Brothers executive who came to greet him from the opposite side was slightly startled when he saw that Tang An did not show up, but he also asked the employee next to him to go up and inform him that he had arrived.
As the largest film and television company in Hong Kong, it could radiate throughout Southeast Asia at its peak. Many old people of Shaw Brothers are still stuck in the glory of the past.
In the largest conference room of Shaw Brothers, a group of Shaw Brothers executives learned that the person from Hantang who came to discuss cooperation was just a director of the distribution department, and he was also dumbfounded. Then they were filled with grievances.
"It's okay if Tang An doesn't come, but the president, vice president, and general manager of the film division didn't show up, so they just sent a distribution director over. What does that mean!"
"This is so disrespectful of us!"
"It's simply too arrogant, with no sincerity at all, and no cooperation at all!"
Some people even started to curse, looking indignant, as if they had been stimulated by something.
Except for Li Ruigang, the newly appointed chairman of the board of directors, all senior executives of Shaw Brothers, including the president and several executive directors, were present.
Facing Tang An, they also knew the situation in the domestic film and television industry and made adequate gestures.
However, a group of people waited here for Tang An for a long time, but Tang An did not come.
It doesn't matter if they don't come, it's the same if Zhang Qiang comes, but they send a distribution director to talk. They can't stand it. They feel that they have been completely ignored and have been greatly humiliated.
