On September 25, Li Guangyu arrived at the Four Seasons Hotel early to wait for Lei Juekun's arrival. Today Li Guangyu will discuss the theater acquisition with Lei Juekun here. Lei Juekun left five minutes before the agreed time.
He came in and said to Li Guangyu: "Li Sheng, you are so busy now, how come you still have time to ask me out for tea."
"Lei Sheng, you're welcome. I'm just working around. I don't understand many things. I need help from you seniors." Li Guangyu said politely.
"Li Sheng, if you need anything, just ask. I'll help as much as I can."
"Lei Sheng, you also know that I am currently working on a film and television company. The television station has been completed, but the movie thing is a bit unmanageable."
When Lei Juekun heard what Li Guangyu said, he didn't understand what Li Guangyu meant. Then he said, "Li Sheng, you have to find Run Run Shaw and Wrinkle Wai to make movies in Hong Kong these days. The world is theirs now, so what's the use of me?"
?”
"Lei Sheng, this film company is easy to manage and can recruit talents, but I currently lack something that can compete with Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest, so I would like to ask for your help."
When Lei Juekun heard what he said, he knew that Li Guangyu was interested in his theater again. He was a little angry when he thought about it. Why did Li Guangyu focus on this thing in his family? So he said to Li Guangyu: "Li Guangyu
Sir, it's not that I don't want to help you, I have no plans to sell the theater now."
Li Guangyu knew that Lei Juekun would not transfer the theater to Li Guangyu if he did not come up with something.
"Leisheng, my company's current development is pretty good, but the office locations of various companies are relatively messy, so I plan to buy a piece of land in Central and build a Coslight Building as the office location of my company. The construction company has not yet been determined.
.”
Lei Juekun understood what Li Guangyu meant, which was to give up his own theater on the condition that Kowloon Construction Industry builds Guangyu Building. Lei Juekun thought about it, anyway, the rent of the theater is not much now, so selling it to
Li Guangyu figured out that it would be more cost-effective to undertake the construction of Guangyu Building. In this way, by investing the money from the sale of the theater into Kowloon Construction, the Lei family would have absolute control of Kowloon Construction.
"Li Sheng, since you need a theater chain, I can't be that evil person who blocks your way. I have four large theaters, Lisheng, Kaisheng, Roxy, and Jinhong, as well as four medium-sized theaters. Li Sheng
If you are willing, I will transfer it to you for 120 million yuan."
Li Guangyu immediately agreed: "No problem, Lei Sheng, I will let Yuan Tianfan come and sign a contract with you. After our company takes the land, Kowloon Construction can enter the site."
Li Guangyu knows that the theater he acquired is a bit expensive at the current price, but Li Guangyu can accept it. At the same time, Li Guangyu plans to build this building at a cost of 1 billion Hong Kong dollars, with a height of 33 floors. The reason why he has so much money to build the headquarters building
, I would also like to thank Xiangyu Culture Group led by Li Xuemei.
After Li Guangyu negotiated with Lei Juekun about the theater acquisition, he went to Yau Ma Tei Cinema, Gem Cinema, Sun Kong Cinema and other theaters to discuss acquisition matters. In the end, after raising the market purchase price by two levels, including Lei Juekun
A total of eight large theaters including the 8 theaters in Kunming, a medium-sized theater in Lu, and 4 small theaters form the largest theater in Hong Kong at present, with a total cost of nearly 300 million Hong Kong dollars.
On September 30, Li Guangyu came to Jiayi Building and chaired a high-level meeting.
Li Guangyu said at the meeting: "Today, Jiayi Film and Television Group will be established as the main body of Jiayi TV and Jiayi Record Company, and the soon-to-be-established Jiayi Film Company, Jiayi Cinema Line, and Jiayi Artist Agency. I will
Serving as the chairman of the group's board of directors, Zhou Liang
Ms. Shuyi serves as the CEO of the group, Bai Jiangting serves as the financial director, Xiong Jianhui serves as the director of the human resources department, Zong Hongyan serves as the manager of the administrative department, and Jiang Tao serves as the manager of the safety department. Liu Tianci serves as the general manager of Jiashi, and Liang Yiwu serves as the financial manager of Jiashi.
"
After announcing the appointment of the group, Li Guangyu continued: "At present, our company already owns the largest theater chain in Hong Kong. We only need to register the theater company and have the personnel in place to form Jiayi Cinema Line. In October, our film company will be established. At the same time,
Investing in a major production will create a good start for the establishment of our theater chain. At the same time, our group will conduct all-round cooperation with Xiangyu Group to realize that Xiangyu Group's works can be moved to our film and television."
Li Guangyu ended the meeting after arranging the company's affairs.
In October, the media in Hong Kong became lively again because of Li Guangyu. Li Guangyu's continuous registration of film companies, news about theater companies and artist management companies, and the closure of many theaters for renovation caused a huge sensation in Hong Kong.
Oriental Daily reported: "When Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest controlled the development of the Hong Kong film industry, Li Guangyu, the talented young man in Hong Kong, did not stop his expansion. Now he has extended his hands into the film industry. For this reason
He spent a lot of money to acquire Lisheng and Sunbeam
and many theaters. This person has established Xiangjiang's entertainment media group in just one year, from newspapers and magazines, from television to the film industry. At a time when Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest are competing for hegemony, will Li Sheng's entry have a negative impact on Xiangjiang?
bring greater changes to the film industry.”
xīng dǎo rì bào The reporter directly stopped Wrinkle and asked, "Wrinkle, there is news that the Li Group is entering the film industry and investing heavily in theaters. What do you think?"
Wrinkle Huai wanted to scold her. I finally wanted to kill Shaw Brothers. At this time, Li Guangyu suddenly broke in and gave him an important blow. Can I say I don't want him to come?
Wrinkle-Wai replied: "Now Hong Kong's film industry is booming. I welcome any colleagues who join the film industry. I hope that all film practitioners in Hong Kong will work together to make Hong Kong's films go out of Asia and to the world."
The reporter was obviously dissatisfied with Wuxianhuai's answer and continued to ask: "Whisheng, as far as we know, the Li Group has acquired eight theaters under the name of Mr. Lei Juekun and has stopped cooperating with Jiahe since this month. Is this true?
Will it have a negative impact on Jiahe?”
"At present, our theater chain in Jiahe is enough to support the company's development. Regarding the eight theaters including Lisheng Theaters stopping to cooperate with Jiahe, it will not have any impact on our Jiahe."
"Whisper, there are rumors circulating in Hong Kong that the film industry in Hong Kong will usher in a three-wizard struggle for hegemony. What do you think?"
"Based on my many years of experience in the film industry, I don't think you can develop a film company just by having money."
When the reporter heard what Wuzhenhuai said, he was not prepared to ask him to explain anything. He just said that the film industry in Hong Kong cannot be prospered only by money, and the Triwizard Hegemony was not worth mentioning in Jiahe's opinion.
Run Run Shaw's mood in the past two days has been mixed. Li Guangyu entered the film industry with lightning speed. He was happy that Jiahe had a rival, and Shaw Brothers was no longer the target of Jiahe's suppression. What he was worried about was that Shaw Brothers had completely declined.
, although now he has put his focus on television, Run Run Shaw still can't let go of the film industry that he has worked in for half his life.
Li Guangyu ignored the outside reports. He was discussing the decoration of the theater with Gu Zhengsheng, the general manager of Jiayi Cinemas. Li Guangyu told Gu Zhengsheng about the later model of one theater with multiple halls and asked him to follow this model.
The decoration will ensure that the Jiayi Cinema Line will be fully operational on January 1st.
