On August 7, the Hang Seng Index climbed above the point.
The market value of New Era Group has reached a terrifying 460 billion, which even shocked Lin Zuhui.
Because New Era Group is relatively "deductible", for example, last year's net profit was more than 28 billion, and the dividend in March only totaled about 5 billion Hong Kong dollars in dividends; moreover, in the past year, New Era Group has hardly acquired any land in Hong Kong, and it has suffered "heavy losses"
.
However, Lin Zuhui thought again. If the east is not bright, the west is bright. New Era Group’s business in Europe and the United States in recent years has been very good. Amazon shopping malls have reached 52, and the operating conditions are very ideal; the rent of office buildings in the United States is relatively high.
When purchasing the property rights, the increase was already 50% to 60%; Langham Hotel Group is developing very smoothly, and its several luxury high-end hotel brands have greatly boosted morale; of course, the most important thing is that overseas securities investment is very ideal, especially New Era Group's stake in Microsoft
1.5%, Citigroup 2.2% has been disclosed.
In addition to these good news, New Era Group still has the second largest land reserve among Xiangjiang Real Estate Company, currently reaching 26 million square feet; its rental properties are firmly ranked first, which is about 1.5 times that of the second place (the unit price is also more expensive
); Mainland investment has entered the payback period and it is the largest investment group.
Generally speaking, New Era Group's asset value is around HKD 600-700 billion, and its market value is understandable at 460 billion. The only regret is that HSBC's market value is 480 billion, which is still better than New Era Group.
However, after the outbreak of the financial crisis, New Era Group was definitely more 'resistant' than any listed company, and was able to rebound immediately and continue to climb to new highs in market value.
Of course, Lin Zuhui does not want the market value of New Era Group to be too high. After all, a high market value is not good for him. On the contrary, if the market value is low, he can increase his holdings to 60% or more than 70%. It is not a problem.
There are too many loopholes in the so-called "reaching the comprehensive acquisition line". After all, if the acquisition is launched based on the highest stock price in the past six months, the stock price can still be far lower than the net assets. Then if the shareholders don't sell to you, naturally there is no real need for comprehensive acquisition.
Acquisition. For example, the Changshi Group in the previous life had a market value of less than 200 billion in the end. During that period, Li Chaoren increased his holdings hundreds of times and the shareholding ratio became larger and larger. There is still no need to worry; and even if the privatization is successful,
It would be more beneficial to him; in fact, it would be very difficult for him to privatize it.
Sun Lixin is the gold medal talent scout of ATV Group. She also has a hidden identity, that is, Lin Zuhui's helper in "looking for beauty". Of course, it is only a secret between the two of them; she does some secret things for Lin Zuhui, and Lin Zuhui pays her some rewards.
But she will not be given a small role in the ATV Group. After all, Lin Zuhui has always been 'public is public and private is private'.
Some time ago, Sun Lixin was ordered to go to the University of Toronto in Canada to find a girl named Lin Chilin. She lived up to expectations and finally found her. As Lin Chilin was about to graduate from university, she invited Lin Chilin to come to ATV to be an artist.
However, Lin Zhilin refused at that time. She hoped to find a job at the Taiwan Museum of Fine Arts. Sun Lixin was not in a hurry. After all, if the boss really wanted to date this Taiwanese girl, she would take the initiative after meeting him once or twice.
You know, the boss has always kept beautiful women like Lin Zixia and Wang Zuxian.
Therefore, Sun Lixin kept in touch with Lin Zhilin while reporting the situation to her boss. The boss seemed to be in no hurry, and just asked him to slowly find opportunities to facilitate the meeting between the two, and he also asked for it to be natural.
Later, Lin Chilin failed to find a job at the Taiwan Art Museum (which required a master's degree), and her thoughts quickly changed. Sun Lixin immediately extended an olive branch and arranged for Lin Chilin to work as an administrative assistant at the ATV Group. As for entering the entertainment industry, she had time to think about it slowly.
On Saturday, Lin Zuhui came to the ATV Building.
Soon, the program director Zhao Zhenqiang came to his office. Now Lin Zuhui's presence in ATV is not high, mainly because Lin Zuhui himself is a bit avoidant and ATV is currently developing very well. Of course, Lin Zuhui has always been paying attention to ATV.
development situation and have a complete plan in mind.
"Boss, "Huan Zhuge Ge" has been broadcast half of the time on Mainland China's Hunan Channel, almost certainly setting the highest record in history. The current average ratings are 52% and the highest is 65.2%," Zhao Zhenqiang reported excitedly.
Another reason why he is like this is that this drama was hand-picked by the boss. Nowadays, the boss rarely interferes with the content of ATV, so in order to cater to the boss, he naturally has to report the good news.
Lin Zuhui nodded with satisfaction. ATV's "My Fair Princess" series was broadcast on ATV in April this year. Once it was broadcast, it set a ratings record in Hong Kong and became a strong contender for ATV's annual ratings championship. Lin Zuhui has watched it
Not to mention that it is somewhat similar to the filming of Qiong Yao drama, but the level of ATV filming is definitely higher than the level of filming in previous lives; no matter from the detailed structure, or from the exquisite costumes and props, the previous life of "Huan Zhuge Ge" is here
I have always been my younger brother.
This life's "Huan Zhu Ge Ge" is a Hong Kong drama and is obviously more popular. To put it simply, it is just like the advantages of Korean dramas in the previous life. "Huan Zhu Ge Ge" also landed on Taiwan in June, which also caused ratings records
.
Not surprisingly, this drama will be introduced to more countries. Of course, the impact of the Asian financial crisis must also be taken into consideration. Fortunately, there are many fans of Hong Kong dramas in Asian countries, and local TV stations will also consider this factor.
"Overall, Hong Kong dramas have developed very well in recent years, and I am very satisfied!"
Zhao Zhenqiang immediately answered: "Mainly because of the Hong Kong dramas such as "Blue Life", "Lovers in Paris", "Full House", "My Sassy Girl" and "Yunxian", they are a very popular drama.
A good template. After that, the PD, director, and screenwriter were deeply inspired, and ATV Hong Kong dramas have since formed a culture that has gradually flourished."
What he meant was that it was thanks to Lam Cho-fai's good beginning that Hong Kong dramas developed today.
Lin Zuhui waved his hand and said with a smile: "ATV's abundant talents are the cornerstone of the development of Hong Kong culture. By the way, do you think there is still a missing link in Hong Kong culture?"
Zhao Zhenqiang immediately concentrated and thought carefully about how the entertainment culture in Xiangjiang is different from what it is now when the boss did not enter this industry!
Hong Kong dramas, HK-POP (Hong Kong music), movies, variety shows. It seems that he has dabbled in them all. For a while, Zhao Zhenqiang could only shake his head.
"Boss, forgive me for being stupid, Hong Kong's culture seems to be complete."
Lin Zuhui smiled, you may think that variety shows such as "Millionaire", "The Voice of Hong Kong", "Chinese Idol", "Talent Show", "Into the Wild", "Big Brother" and so on are also 'Hong Kong variety shows'!
After all, it was ATV that started the history of the world's live-action talent show.
He said seriously: "If you think about it carefully, the stars cultivated by HK-POP are called 'Hong Kong idols'; the actors from Hong Kong dramas are also called 'Hong Kong idols'. Only "The Voice of Hong Kong" and "Hong Kong Idols"
Variety shows like "Chinese Idol" do not seem to be part of this system, but are instead global variety shows."
Zhao Zhenqiang had an idea and said: "The boss means that ATV should produce a type of variety show that is closely related to Hong Kong idols and can help each other achieve success."
Lin Zuhui said with satisfaction: "That's it!" After saying that, he handed a document to Zhao Zhenqiang and continued: "This is the outline of the new variety show "X-MAN". You organize elite troops and plan it perfectly."
.I hope it will officially land on ATV in the second half of next year."
Zhao Zhenqiang felt that his hands were almost shaking, because the boss was talking about a new variety show, that is, ATV was going to make history again, how could it not make people excited.
He couldn't help but watch it on the spot!
"The "X-MAN" reality show has one host and two deputy hosts (who are also captains). Each team has 7 to 8 members. The members mostly choose Hong Kong idols, but they can also choose models, actors, etc."
"At the beginning of the game, let the guests dance the HK-POP dance that has been popular in recent years. It can be a self-composed dance."
"The game has three parts: riding together as a team, and of course, long live the couple."
Zhao Zhenqiang only felt that he had entered a new cultural field. It turns out that variety shows can have so many ways to play. Not to mention this program, it will greatly promote the distance between Hong Kong celebrities and fans. The games in it are really creative.
Full marks.
For example, 'Of course', each team picks one person to PK, and they take turns to be the attacker, and the other team has to answer 'Of course', which is obviously very fun. For example, if the attacker says 'You are really ugly', if the other team cannot say
If you say 'Of course', you will lose the game; for example, if the attacker talks about scandals, of course, these must be 'variety effects', otherwise it will not be fun.
And Long Live the Couple, the first game to choose a ‘couple’, is also very fun, and the male-male couple in the end is hilarious.
This information is actually quite detailed. Maybe Lin Zuhui has watched the Korean drama once or twice, but he was really fascinated by many Korean variety shows in his previous life. Watching them repeatedly, the memory is really deep. Moreover, many Korean stars
, he actually learned about it from Han Zong.
"Boss, this information is so detailed, half a year of preparation time is enough!" Zhao Zhenqiang said excitedly.
Lin Zuhui waved his hand and said: "Don't be impatient. This kind of variety show should be done slowly. I have an overall plan for 'Hong Kong Culture'! If you are confident, then organize a secret project team first and complete it as detailed as possible. Of course.
Well, there is a very important issue here, that is, the host. He must be able to act ugly, be a comedian, have outstanding hosting skills, and be able to adapt to situations; preferably, he must also be of high quality and positive.
Of the two deputy hosts and captains, one must be a variety show host, and the other one can choose a non-permanent male or female artist. In short, this type of variety show is very interactive, and the information is all there.
Note, study hard, this is a new variety show culture!"
Zhao Zhenqiang nodded seriously. He was also curious about why his boss had such a big career and was worried about such a thing. After all, even if the ATV Group has a market value of nearly 40 billion, it is only a small company owned by the boss.
To pick up girls?
Zhao Zhenqiang shook his head inwardly, considering the boss’s temperament, appearance, and wealth, only women can take the initiative; the important thing is that the boss is considered ‘incorruptible’ in ATV.
I don't understand, but Zhao Zhenqiang doesn't dare to talk nonsense. After all, the boss is watching him to communicate the content of ATV. Once it is revealed that "Lin Zuhui participated in the content of ATV", it will obviously be him who leaked the news, and it will offend the boss.
.
After Zhao Zhenqiang left, Lin Zuhui showed a smile.
When next year South Korean leader Kim Dae Jong announces the general policy of 'building a nation through culture', and Hong Kong leader Mr. Dong will also announce the general policy of 'revitalizing Hong Kong through culture'; by then, the Korean cultural circles will find that they have nothing to break through and can only copy others.
Ah copy.
The important thing is that plagiarism will never be on the table. It is difficult for the Korean wave in this generation to come back to Korea, and it can only play on its own. Also, because Hong Kong pop has invaded South Korea in recent years, South Korea has a large number of fans of Hong Kong pop idols, so
In the future, South Korea will have to face massive invasion of foreign cultures.
At this time, Lin Zuhui couldn't help but feel proud. In his previous life, he was good at liking Korean Wave, but later he changed his ways and hated Bangzi Country. He only liked Korean women.
In this life, let him personally destroy the ‘Korean Wave’!
Moreover, ATV Group supports nearly 8,000 people, and Lin Zuhui has to work hard. Once these people lose their jobs, it will be a disaster for Hong Kong.
After the financial crisis, countless people in various countries have lost their jobs. Investment failure coupled with unemployment has simply made the situation worse.
Fortunately, the approximately 50,000 Xiangjiang employees supported by Lin Zuhui (excluding overseas employees) will hardly be unemployed. On the contrary, due to the increase in business, the scale will expand.
"Boss, I'll refill your tea!"
A cooing, gentle voice sounded, bringing Lin Zuhui's thoughts back to reality.
Lin Zuhui looked at Lin Zhilin who walked in and couldn't help but smile. This beauty was his favorite artist in her previous life, and even the 'Japanese artist' who looked like her was his favorite artist; when Lin Zuhui saw
Come on, Boduo is just a copycat version of Lin Zhilin. Even so, Lin Zuhui still likes to watch it.
"Zhiling, are you used to working at ATV?"
Lin Zhilin blushed, wondering why her boss suddenly called her so affectionately. She had been with ATV Group for almost a month and had met the world's richest man three times. He only came to the company once a week. Even so, she felt very happy.
.
"I'm used to it, my colleagues are very nice to me!" Lin Zhilin said.
Lin Zuhui looked at Lin Zhilin. She was indeed a beauty, but she might not be in 'perfect condition', mainly because her temperament had not improved yet. He had already met Lin Zhilin three times, but did not take immediate measures because since they had already met, they couldn't run away.
out of his hand.
"Just get used to it, I'm used to you serving me!" Lin Zuhui said seriously, but it was easy for people to feel ambiguous.
Sure enough, Lin Zhilin's face turned slightly red. She felt like this because she had thoughts about Lin Zuhui. Maybe it was like this.
However, Lin Zhilin seemed to have thought of something and whispered: "Boss, I have something to report to you!"
Lin Zuhui motioned for her to continue, and looked at Lin Zhilin who was beside her. She was tall and had a good figure. The most important thing was that she was charming and made him feel like she was a part of her.
"The University of Toronto has agreed for me to continue studying for a master's degree, so..." Lin Zhilin said somewhat complicatedly. If she was just an administrative assistant, she would still want to study for a master's degree. After all, the opportunity is rare; but if...
Lin Zuhui did not disappoint Lin Zhilin and immediately said: "But what should I do if I can't live without you?"
These words are not as simple as ambiguity, they almost make things clear.
"Ah, what do you mean, boss? Anyway, you only come to ATV occasionally. It's the same with anyone serving tea and water!" Lin Zhilin lowered her head and fiddled with the corners of her clothes, her face flushed, and her heart full of anticipation.
Lin Zuhui stood up, came to Lin Zhilin's side, put his hands on her shoulders, and said affectionately: "How about having dinner together tonight?"
Lin Zhilin raised her head. There was no need to say more about the charm of this man, and he could make her fly into the sky. She really had no reason to refuse, so she nodded casually and said, "Yeah."
Lin Zuhui smiled, his smile was like a spring breeze, without any discomfort. Even if he was thinking about dirty things, no one would think he was vulgar. This was due to his appearance, temperament, status and other reasons.
