Chapter 440 The Dragon and Tiger Fight in the Hong Kong Film Circle (4200+ chapters~)
Debao Pictures has successfully gone public through a backdoor merger. After acquiring a listed company called Haoting Investment, through a series of operations, it has officially changed its name to Debao Haoting!
Because the three original shareholders of Debao Pictures are all the top wealthy families in Hong Kong, and because the good news that Debao Pictures previously announced that it would invest in building its own theater chain came out, the shares of Debao Houses have been rising.
After going public, the stock price felt like it was on a rocket.
It was also through this spring breeze that Pan Disheng, Lin Jianyue, and Michael Kadoorie made some operations in the stock market, and the funds originally announced to build the theater chain were recovered from the stock market.
Construction of the ten theaters of the Debao Cinema Line has officially started.
At this time, in the banquet hall of the Peninsula Hotel, Pan Disheng and others were walking among the crowd. His confidante Yang Ziqiong was holding his arm, and both of them had proud smiles on their faces.
Tomorrow "The Royal Sister" will be officially released. Yang Ziqiong is proud that the movie starring himself can finally be released. Because of the appearance of Wu Jianye, Yang Ziqiong in this life is not as famous as the previous one.
As long as people step into this circle, they must have a certain degree of vanity, even Yang Ziqiong who comes from a wealthy family.
At the same time, because of Yang Ziqiong's family background, the two have now begun to talk about marriage.
As for Pan Disheng's happiness, there is naturally a reason for it. As the release time of "The Royal Sister" approaches, Debao Haoting's stock price has risen again. Now that the movie has not been released, his net worth has increased by two thousand.
More than 10,000 yuan, which is more money than making a movie.
This is also the first time businessmen in Xiangjiang have seen the dividends of entertainment stocks. Before this, no Xiangjiang people had ever been exposed to entertainment stocks.
After the two walked around, Yang Ziqiong went to the women's circle to talk, while Pan Disheng once again stood with his partners Lin Jianyue and Michael Kadoorie.
Three well-known wealthy second-generation people from Xiangjiang, standing together, naturally attracted the attention of many women in the venue.
The three of them were wearing Italian custom-made suits, holding red wine glasses in their hands, standing there talking and laughing, and anyone could see that they were in a very beautiful mood.
"I didn't expect entertainment stocks to be so profitable!" Michael Kadoorie laughed.
"Yes, "The Royal Sister" has not yet been released, but we have already made money back in the stock market." Lin Jianyue was also very happy.
Unlike Michael Kadoorie, he is the only heir to the Kadoorie family. Old Kadoorie only has one son, and he regards Michael as the apple of his eye and the only sustenance in his life. Father and son traveled abroad, and in order to reduce risks, Old Kadoorie always
Don't take the same flight with your son.
Lin Jianyue is different. Although he is favored by his father the most, after all, he has many brothers and sisters.
Lin Jianyue's father, Lin Boxin, married four wives in his life and had eight children.
Therefore, only by continuous success can Lin Jianyue defeat his brothers and sisters and become his father's successor.
Nowadays, it can be said that Lin Jianyue created the concept of entertainment stocks for the first time in Hong Kong by chance. Now the market value of Debao Palace has exceeded 1.5 billion. Although there are inflated elements, they
Don't care.
As the second largest shareholder of Debao Haoting, Lin Jianyue can be said to have shown his face in front of his father this time.
"I would like to take this opportunity to announce the latest plan of Debao Palace at the screening of "The Royal Sisters" tomorrow. I will spend 50 million to invest in five dramas for Debao Palace!" Pan Di
Sheng said.
"I believe that as soon as this news comes out, and as soon as the box office results of "The Royal Sisters" come out tomorrow, Debao House's stock price will definitely rise to a high level again!"
Lin Jianyue nodded and said, "I agree with this plan!"
Michael Kadoorie said with some worry: "Tomorrow Fengge Entertainment will also launch "The God of Gamblers" starring Zhou Run. According to Zhou Run's reputation in Hong Kong, Cheng Long is not in Hong Kong now. I'm afraid there is no one.
It can compete with his movies!"
Pan Disheng smiled confidently and said: "Don't worry, I have contacted Jiahe Cinema and Golden Princess Cinema, and they have agreed to lend us all the cinemas tomorrow!"
Lin Jianyue was overjoyed after hearing this: "The Jiahe Cinema Line and the Golden Princess Cinema Line have already exceeded the number of theaters in the Fengge Cinema Line. With their support, this time the movie "Royal Senior Sister" may really be as good as "Gamble".
"God" is in the ring!"
Michael Kadoorie asked suspiciously: "Didn't Jiahe Cinema and Golden Princess Cinema previously disagree with the screening of the movie in all theaters?"
Pan Disheng smiled and said: "This is also thanks to the stock price of our Debao Palace. Zou Wenhuai and Lei Junkun both want to see what heights entertainment stocks can reach. I think they should also have plans to go public!
"
In fact, if the development of Xiangjiang's entertainment industry had not deviated from its original trajectory, Golden Harvest Pictures would not have been listed on the market until 1994.
As for this life, it depends on Debao Haoting's achievements.
Michael Kadoorie said: "It seems that our theater chain must speed up the progress!"
Lin Jianyue: "Yes, although we have the support of the theater chain in Wanwan, Xiangjiang is our base. Without a theater chain in our hands, we always feel like someone is grabbing us by the throat!"
Pan Disheng smiled and said: "Don't worry, the approval of ten theaters will be completed in October. At that time, we can raise funds through public rights issues again and continue to build theaters. I believe it will not take two years to establish Fengge Entertainment's power in Hong Kong."
It will be eaten by us."
When it came to Fengge Entertainment, Lin Jianyue and Michael Kadoorie were still a little worried.
"We still have to be careful with Fengge Entertainment. After all, Fengge Entertainment is backed by Yaoguang Group. If we push too hard, I'm worried that Yaoguang Group will take action!" Michael Kadoorie analyzed.
Pan Disheng smiled and said: "Don't worry about this. The current four major shareholders of Debao Palace, the three of us plus the film producers from Wanwan, already occupy nearly 65% of the shares of Debao Palace. Even if
It’s Yaoguang Group who wants to forcibly acquire Debao Haoting’s shares on the market, but it can’t do it with us!”
Lin Jianyue and Michael Kadoorie thought that this was indeed the case, so they said nothing more.
The next day!
Almost all the entertainment media in Hong Kong were mobilized. They were divided into two and went to the Jiahe Gateway Cinema in Jiahe, where a grand screening of "The Royal Sister" will be held today!
In the past two years, the film screenings organized by Fengge Entertainment have opened another door for film companies in Hong Kong. Nowadays, any film company that releases a film and does not hold a screening will appear to have no one.
The card is up.
Another group went to Wuluo Cinema of Fengge Entertainment to attend the screening of "God of Gamblers"!
Some media have already described the battle between Fengge Entertainment and Debao Pictures as a battle between the dragon and the tiger!
The casts appearing at the screenings of both parties can be said to include all entertainment stars in Hong Kong. Even Sir Shao put aside his grudges with Golden Harvest at this time and sent all the actors from his own TV station to support "The Royal Sisters"
.
Nowadays, TVB and ATV have completely gone to war. The fuse was that ATV poached TVB's pillar Zheng Shaoxi at a high price. This made Sir Shao very angry. Even Sir Shao, who had not cursed people for many years, put TVB in his office.
The top management of the artist's management scolded him for more than half an hour.
Nowadays, behind the box office competition between "God of Gamblers" and "The Royal Sisters", the entire entertainment industry in Xiangjiang has been divided into two camps, with almost the entire entertainment industry participating.
At this time, Fengge Entertainment is equivalent to being an enemy of the entire entertainment company in Xiangjiang and the strength of Wanwan behind it!
Everyone wants to see whether Debao Haoting, an upstart, will overthrow Fengge Entertainment, the overlord of Hong Kong's entertainment industry, or whether Fengge Entertainment will continue to maintain its dominance.
Jiahe!
Inside Zou Wenhuai's office.
"Our actors have already left for the Gateway Cinema!" He Guanchang reported to Zou Wenhuai.
Zou Wenhuai nodded: "Go ahead, I also want to see who is better this time!"
He Guanchang smiled and said: "I'm afraid Fengge Entertainment will suffer a loss this time!"
Zou Wenhuai looked at his old friend and said with a smile: "I think Fengge Entertainment can still beat Debao Haoting this time!"
Looking at He Guanchang's confused eyes, Zou Wenhuai smiled and said: "Do you know why I didn't call Aaron back this time? Lei Juekun sent Xu Guanjie to Malaysia to hold a concert at this time?"
Zou Wenhuai asked and answered his question: "Now that Fengge Entertainment has already established itself, it can be defeated so easily. Even if the box office of "God of Gamblers" lost to "The Royal Sister" this time, for Fengge Entertainment
In terms of performance, there won’t be much loss. Fengge Entertainment now requires actors and actresses, directors and directors, and it also controls the largest theater chain in Southeast Asia.”
"Yes, the box office of Xiangjiang Movies is Wanwan, but now Fengge Cinema Line has spent 10 billion Hong Kong dollars to integrate theater chains throughout Southeast Asia. The establishment of this theater chain has already made up for the loss of Fengge Cinema.
The loss of Ge Entertainment's loss of the Wanwan market is even greater than that, which means that nowadays, as long as film companies have some ideas about box office in other places, it is impossible to bypass Feng Ge Cinema."
"Now even our Jiahe's business network in other places has been in chaos because of the strong intervention of Fengge Cinema. Coupled with the relationship between Fengge Entertainment and North American Phantom Entertainment, now Fengge Entertainment has long been in chaos.
I don’t care about the market in Wanwan. Those ignorant young men think they can stand up with the support of Wanwan. Look, based on my understanding of Wu Jianye, he can’t let go so easily.
Pass them."
When it came to the end, Zou Wenhuai's tone was already sighing. When he left Shaw Brothers and founded Golden Harvest, he first divided the world with Wireless, and then fought inextricably with Xinyi City. Originally, Golden Harvest had the hope of reaching the top.
From Xiangjiang Film Company, Fengge Entertainment happened to show up halfway.
After disrupting all of Jiahe's plans, and finally using money to build the largest theater chain in Southeast Asia in a completely unreasonable manner, Zou Wenhuai now regards Cheng Long as Jiahe's last ace.
.
It just so happens that the movies Cheng Long is shooting in North America are still invested and shot by Phantom Entertainment...
This feeling of powerlessness made Zou Wenhuai dislike it very much, but he was also very helpless.
"So Debao Pictures is going to make a mistake this time!" He Guanchang asked.
"It shouldn't happen. I think Fengge Entertainment will win, but I hope Debao Palace will win!" Zou Wenhuai said something somewhat contradictory.
However, as a partner for many years, He Guanchang still understands what Zou Wenhuai means. Only with Debao Haoting's victory, the water in the Xiangjiang entertainment industry will become muddier, which will be more conducive to Jiahe's relationship with Fengge in Wanwan.
There is a balance between entertainment and entertainment.
"Then let's look at the weight of "The Royal Senior Sister"!" He Guanchang said at last.
.......
The lanterns are on!
At this time, the Golden Harvest Cinema in Tsim Sha Tsui was bustling with people and flashing lights.
For the screening of "The Royal Sisters", Pan Desheng and others took great pains to invite film producers from Wanwan to come forward and invited stars from Golden Harvest and New Art City to come and help out.
Then with the addition of wireless stars, this place has obviously become a grand celebrity party, and the audience who came to watch the movie even played a game of counting stars.
Pan Disheng looked at the crowds of people outside and smiled with satisfaction: "After tonight, the film industry in Xiangjiang will change."
Lin Jianyue and Michael Kadoorie were also smiling proudly. At the same time, the actresses who came to the screening today were also dressed up. It was like attending an award ceremony. Naturally, it was for these three.
Although some of these three are already married, some already have their own lovers, and some have just gotten married, they still cannot stop these female stars from finding their 'true love'.
In less than ten minutes, Lin Jianyue has already left the phone numbers of several actresses. I think Lin Jianyue will be very busy in the following days.
The stars are shining brightly here at the Gateway Cinema, and the stars are shining brightly at the Wuluo Cinema!
At this time, Zhou Run is the guarantee of the box office of Hong Kong movies. He belongs to the top of the pyramid of Hong Kong film industry. Coupled with the idols of the new generation, Andy Lau, Zhou Huimin, Zhang Min, and Hong Jinbao and other film industry bosses, Fengge Entertainment completely makes this company
The momentum here is no less than that at Gateway Cinema.
If we were just comparing quality, it would even be higher than that.
When Zhou Run walked on the red carpet, the audience immediately screamed.
Jiang Zhiqiang stood at the door of the theater, looking at the scene in front of him with relief. Wu Jianye did not rush over because the post-production of "New Dragon Inn" had been completed, and Wu Jianye needed to check it carefully before submitting it for review.
.
At the same time, we need to contact provincial and municipal companies to arrange the release of "New Dragon Inn". This is Tangting Culture's first self-produced film in China, and Wu Jianye cannot possibly care about it.
Therefore, on the Xiangjiang side, Jiang Zhi can only take the lead.
Zhou Run and others walked across the red carpet. Jiang Zhiqiang stood at the door of the theater and smiled and said to him: "Hey, Director Wu called me specifically. He asked me to tell you that this time you will once again stir up the audience in Hong Kong."
Shadowmania!”
Zhou Run smiled elegantly and said: "Then when Director Wu comes to Xiangjiang, I must thank him properly!"
Liu Dehua watched Zhou Run and Jiang Zhiqiang chatting and laughing from the side, and he was also silently envious, hoping that he could become a person like Zhou Run earlier.
Zhou Huimin looked very calm when he arrived. There was nothing he could do. Even Jiang Zhiqiang had to be polite when he saw Zhou Huimin at this time. Who knows that this is the boss's woman!
After the stars walked on the red carpet, they entered the theater, had a brief interaction, and the movie was about to start!
