Chapter 583: Give Jiahe Another Fatal Knife (Ask for a Full Order)

"Universal Cinemas? That young guy has eaten the TV industry, and now he's targeting the film industry?"

"Shao Lao Liu is really unlucky!"

Lei Juekun's mind came to mind Shao Yifu's appearance, and he couldn't help but move Yu.

TVB is also in Kowloon, over the years, Lei Juekun has also had some friendship with Shao Yifu, so he naturally knows a lot about him, it can be said that in addition to stabbing Shao Yifu in wrinkles, only Shao Laoliu has always bullied others.

Who would have thought that a mountain would be a mountain high, Shao Laoliu faced Xia Yu, the rising god of Kowloon, and stopped cooking directly.

The bright ones can't fight, the dark ones don't dare to come, and under the defeat and retreat, Shao Laoliu's grievances can be imagined.

It's just that......

"Hehe, I still have the leisure to care about Shao Lao Liu, what should I do now?"

Thinking of the thoughts in his heart, Lei Juekun felt a little depressed.

Although the entertainment industry occupies a lot of exposure and resources in public opinion, in terms of market volume, it is not enough to lift shoes for finance, real estate, shipping, and manufacturing, and all the profits of the Xiangjiang film industry in a year may not be comparable to the profits of a real estate company in a year, so the real bigwigs in Xiangjiang do not bother to enter the entertainment industry at all.

Although there are always tycoons in traditional industries or wealthy people who are keen on the entertainment industry, it is just to pick up girls, to satisfy the quirks in their hearts, and they can spend money when chasing stars, but most of them are in the nature of playing tickets, and when they get tired of it in a few years, it is time to quit.

Of course, the real super bosses can't look down on the little money in the audio-visual entertainment industry, but the lower-level bigwigs are still very enthusiastic, such as the two poles of the Xiangjiang film industry today - Shao Yifu and Wrinkle Huai.

And he, Lei Juekun, also thought about it.

Kowloon Lui family is also a wealthy family in Hong Kong, the traditional family industry is the Kowloon Bus Company, specializing in the passenger bus business in Kowloon, after entering the 70s, it is rushed into Hong Kong Island and the New Territories, merging peers, and gradually became the monopoly leader of the entire Heung Kong bus industry, but also successfully listed a few years ago, the Lui family finally has a listed company.

It is not difficult to operate in the bus industry, after all, this is a public service industry, but the Hong Kong government has relatively large restrictions, and the Kowloon Bus Company has been framed with rules and regulations, even if it wants to increase the fare, the Hong Kong government must approve it.

But after all, it is a monopoly industry, and even if the ticket price is low, the revenue and profit of Kowloon Bus are quite considerable in a year.

It doesn't take much effort to collect money lying down, and Lei Juekun is quite nourishing.

The money earned through the Kowloon Motor Bus Company was used by the Lui family to invest in the real estate industry, so in 1961, they partnered with the Ng Siu-chan family to establish Kowloon Development Company Limited to operate in the real estate industry.

Of course, the Lei family also operates four large theaters, namely Lisheng, Kaisheng, Lesheng and Jinhong Theater, and the four large theaters form a Lisheng cinema line.

However, the Lisheng Cinema Line was leased to Golden Harvest by Lei Juekun and became a part of the Golden Harvest Cinema Line, the four theaters are all large, and the Lisheng Cinema is a rare leading cinema in Xiangjiang, which can be said to be an extremely important part of the Golden Harvest Cinema Line.

Over the years, the film industry has seen a good situation, and thanks to the films of Golden Harvest Pictures, the income of Lisheng Cinema has risen, and Lei Juekun began to be dissatisfied.

Compared with the Shao family and Jiahe, his Lei family is undoubtedly rich in capital, plus the Lei family has four large theaters, and has a certain foundation, if you start from the theater industry, there is still a great chance of successfully grabbing food.

It is precisely because of this kind of caution that when Jiang Zhiqiang came to him to buy Lisheng Cinema some time ago, he refused.

It's just that now that he suddenly saw the news of Universal Cinemas, Lei Juekun hesitated.

I struggled fiercely in my heart, thinking about whether I should enter the film industry again.

Although he covets the profits of the film industry, Lei Juekun is stunned when he thinks of Universal Cinemas and the people behind it.

The Lei family is just a family in the Kowloon area, and it is like that on the entire Hong Kong Island, although it is stronger than the Xiangjiang Shaw family and Wrinkle Huai, but in front of the real boss, it is not enough to see at all.

What's more, he is facing Xia Yu, who is now gradually rumored to be known as the "King of Kowloon".

It is precisely because he is in Kowloon with Xia Yu that Lei Juekun can feel the power of Xia Yu, the god of stocks.

His Lei family is rich, and he is not afraid of Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest, but now behind the global cinema chain is the god of Xiangjiang, thinking of the strength of the Jiuding Consortium, Lei Juekun found powerlessly that he would definitely not win.

What's more, Xia Yu is notoriously fierce, domineering, likes to eat alone, and enters an industry to rush up to the first throne.

You don't have to think about it to know that next, the Xiangjiang film industry will be ignited with raging war, and according to the past records of Xia Yu and his subsidiaries, 90% of this war will be won by Xia Yu, is it necessary for him to get involved?

"Besides, Kowloon Bus has been listed, even if I am lucky enough to win a temporary victory in the film industry, with Xia Yu's prestige in the financial industry, he has grabbed my lifeline and threatened me, what can I do?"

After thinking about it for nearly half an hour, Lei Juekun reluctantly found that as long as he entered the film industry, he would clash with Xia Yu no matter what, and the odds of winning were pitiful, even if he won, he would lose, and he would make a fuss if he couldn't make money.

Not cost-effective!

"Forget it, I still won't wade into the muddy waters this time, let's run the Kowloon Bus and the real estate company with peace of mind, hey......"

"Just cut off the thought, if the Universal Cinema Line wants to buy my cinema line, sell it, concentrate capital and energy, and by the way, also have an incense affair with the Jiuding Consortium. ”

Lei Juekun's face was certain, he made up his mind in his heart, and he suddenly felt relaxed.

He couldn't help but shake his head and smile, picked up the phone in front of the table, found the business card left by Jiang Zhiqiang, and dialed it according to the phone number on the business card.

At this time, Jiang Zhiqiang was receiving the CEOs of film companies who came one after another, and suddenly the phone of his subordinate who came to report to his office rang, and the caller was Lei Juekun of Kowloon Bus Bus.

Hearing this, Jiang Zhiqiang immediately dropped the matter in his hand, and a thought flashed in his heart.

Sure enough, after answering the phone, Lei Juekun said on the phone that he could talk about the Lisheng Cinema Line, and asked him when he had time, Jiang Zhiqiang was overjoyed, for fear that the night would be long and dreamy, so he would take a good person to the Lei family in the morning.

The acquisition negotiation was completed in a short time, Jiang Zhiqiang had already found out the four theaters of Lisheng Cinema Line, so the bid was very accurate, plus Lei Juekun really wanted to quit, by the way, sell it well, Lang You's concubine intentionally signed the transfer contract directly that morning, and the speed was very fast!

All four large theaters of Lisheng Cinema Line are in hand!

At this point, the number of cinemas in the Universal Cinema chain will rise from 20 to 24, and the number of large-scale cinemas will increase from 5 to 9, and the five leading cinemas in Xiangjiang will occupy the second one, namely Taiping Cinema and Lisheng Cinema.

The serious damage was the second Golden Harvest Cinema Line in Xiangjiang at this time, which originally had 19 theaters, but directly lost the number of leading cinemas and large cinemas, and the number was reduced to 15, and the strength was lost by nearly three layers!

After going back, Jiang Zhiqiang immediately took over the Lisheng Cinema Line, and at the same time immediately abolished the separation from the Golden Harvest Cinema Line and announced that he would join the Universal Cinema Line.

The news soon reached Wrinkle Huai's ears, and his first thought was absolutely impossible, but after calling Lei Juekun, Wrinkle Huai only felt that it was dark in front of him, and almost fainted, and then smashed the office in a rage, and later it was said that Wrinkle Huai scolded Lei Juekun and Jiang Zhiqiang in the office.

Shao Yifu was not too late to get the news, and after confirming that the news was correct, he sat on the stool for a long time and was silent, not excited, only a sense of sadness for the rabbit and a fox, and a feeling of breathless depression.

Other people in the film industry, especially the CEOs of small and medium-sized film companies in Hong Kong, were shocked by endless surprises, and they even rushed to cooperate with Universal Cinemas with their films.

The scenery of Universal Cinemas is unique for a while!
