371 [Big Dog]

Boss Zou did not attract the attention of reporters because his company address is less than a kilometer away from the Peninsula Hotel. Let the driver drive him to the underground parking lot, take the elevator directly, go around in the middle, and don't run into reporters at all.

The reason why the Peninsula Hotel's tea restaurant is widely loved in the entertainment industry is rooted in Mr. Shao Liu, the owner of Shaw Brothers.

Mr. Shao Liu likes to drink afternoon tea here, even to discuss business or summon an actor, it is also in the tea restaurant. The first meeting between Boss Zou and Mr. Shao Liu was also in the tea restaurant of the Peninsula Hotel, and even Boss Zou liked to drink afternoon tea here.

The two most powerful film company owners in Hong Kong City both like this place, how can those stars let it go?

As long as they can afford to spend, celebrities will come to the Peninsula Hotel to sit in the tea restaurant whenever they are free, and it is easy to meet Boss Shao or Boss Zou. Even if you can't chat, it's good to take a picture, maybe one day the boss will remember it, and then it will be logical to get an important role.

With a star-studded presence and a plethora of wealthy people, The Peninsula has become a mecca for journalists in the port city.

Guo Tianwang took Song Weiyang and walked straight inside, pointed to the direction of the window and the sea, and said, "That is Boss Zou's fixed position, and he sits there every time." ”

Song Weiyang walked into the tea restaurant, casually raised his eyes, and recognized several film and television actors, one of whom likes to play "Legend", often carrying a machete and saying: If it's a brother, come and cut me!

Boss Zou turned his back to the direction of the door, and there was a woman sitting next to him, and the two were whispering something.

Guo Tianwang walked over quickly and said with a smile: "Zou Sheng, Boss Song is here." ”

Boss Zou and the woman immediately got up and turned back, Song Weiyang couldn't cry or laugh - the old man was very bad, and he actually called Yang Gongru too, is this because he is afraid that the scandal is not enough to hammer?

But it's also normal, because Yang Gongru is the heroine of "Chinese Heroes", and she is also the heroine of the previous "Storm and Clouds".

"Hello Song Sheng, I have admired my name for a long time, and I am a hero out of a young man," Boss Zou smiled and held Song Weiyang's hand, "In the battle of the Futures Exchange, Song Sheng is majestic, and I have many old friends who are talking about Song Sheng." ”

Song Weiyang said: "It's too famous, it's just luck." ”

"Song Sheng is too modest, and engaging in finance is more than luck," Boss Zou introduced, "This is Miss Yang Gongru Yang, and she is also one of the heroines of the upcoming filming of "Chinese Heroes". ”

Yang Gongru immediately stepped forward, smiled a little shyly, and said softly: "Hello Song Sheng, it's a pleasure to meet you." ”

This woman, a bit of a means, with a shy smile and charm, is exactly the type that men like the most.

Lao Tzu is not the richest man in Shenghai, you seduce a yarn!

"Hello Miss Yang. Song Weiyang didn't eat this at all, and let go after shaking hands.

At the moment of shaking hands, Song Weiyang's palm was hooked, as if it was unintentional and tempting.

Song Weiyang only ordered a glass of orange juice and a beef treatment, and Boss Zou immediately asked, "Song Sheng is not used to eating afternoon tea in Hong Kong City?"

Song Weiyang said: "I don't like sweets. ”

Boss Zou said: "I was negligent, I should change the restaurant." ”

"It's okay, the sandwich is not bad," Mr. Song said, "let's talk about the movie." ”

Boss Zou smiled: "I just brought the script, Song Sheng, please take a look." ”

Most Hong Kong films have no script before filming, or only have a very brief script. Even if there is a very formal script, there will be various on-the-spot changes during the filming, and the screenwriter of Hong Kong films must follow the team throughout the filming.

"Chinese Heroes" is positioned as a comic special effects blockbuster, and the script is relatively complete, but Song Weiyang only swept the plot synopsis and found that it was different from what he remembered.

In this script, there is no scene of the protagonist's son at all, it tells the story of Hua Yingying when he was young, that is, the first part of the original comics.

Ekin Cheng plays Hua Yingying, and Guo Fucheng plays Luohan, barely the double protagonists.

Golden Harvest's plan is huge, planning to shoot "Fengyun 1" first, then "Chinese Heroes 1", and then continue to shoot "Fengyun 2" and "Chinese Heroes 2". There may not have been investment in history, the plan for "Fengyun 2" was canceled, and the script of "Chinese Heroes 1" was directly rewritten.

Song Weiyang only glanced at it casually, and then asked, "Why did Boss Zou ask me to invest?"

Boss Zou said with a smile: "I think the mainland market is vast, and we should strengthen our ties more." Even if I can't cooperate this time, I hope to make friends with Song Sheng. ”

In fact, Golden Harvest's funds are tight, and they want to find unjust investments everywhere.

In the past, most of the financiers of Hong Kong films were crooked businessmen, and those guys were rich in thieves, which directly gave birth to the term "selling films". Just like selling real estate properties, you can just find a celebrity to shoot a promotional video, and you can get investment from crooked businessmen. When the development reached the most outrageous, the director of Hong Kong City wrote a list of stars, casually fooled a plot synopsis, and tens of millions of investments were in hand - this is the case with Sunglasses King's "East Evil and West Poison".

Now that Hong Kong films are in decline, and the crooked businessmen have become refined, Boss Zou wants to fool the rich businessmen in the mainland.

As long as this "Chinese Hero" makes money, Golden Harvest can hype it up in the future, and then use Song Weiyang's successful investment case as a signboard to continue to fool other local bosses and big dogs in the mainland.

At the same time, Golden Harvest has been exploring the mainland box office market in the past ten years. Now that the bending market has been ruined, the port city market is in decline, and we can only set our sights on the mainland market. The more mainland bosses I know, the easier it will be to do in the mainland box office market, and Boss Zou thinks about it for a long time.

Boss Zou said: "Golden Harvest has also invested in several theaters in the mainland, and its revenue has been good. If Song Sheng is interested, we can invest in building a cinema together in the mainland. ”

Even if Song Weiyang no longer understands the film and television industry, he also knows that making movies in the mainland at this time is looking for death, he politely refused: "I don't understand movies, it's okay to do it occasionally, just invest in building theaters." ”

Boss Zou continued to flicker: "Any market needs to be cultivated, let's first build the theater slowly and cultivate the movie-watching habits of mainland audiences." In a few years, the mainland film market will flourish, because after all, it is a potential market with 1 billion people! Take the automobile industry as an example, 20 years ago, how many people bought cars on the mainland? Now they are everywhere! The same is true for making movies. ”

"Huh. Song Weiyang smiled in return.

After all the nonsense, Song Weiyang couldn't pour oil, and Boss Zou could only say back to "Chinese Heroes": "The investment budget of this drama is 45 million to 50 million Hong Kong dollars, and it was created by the original team of "Storm and Clouds Dominate the World". "Fengyun" is this year's box office champion, and overseas places are already arranging releases, and it will definitely make a lot of money. It's the same with "Chinese Heroes", all popular movie stars star, and they don't worry about making money at all. ”

"Okay, I will invest 15 million Hong Kong dollars, and I will send someone to contact Golden Harvest for the specific content of the contract. Song Weiyang said.

So decided to invest 15 million?

Sure enough, it's a big dog!

Yang Gongru's eyes suddenly lit up, looked at Song Weiyang with affection, and asked, "Song Sheng, my friend is going to hold a yacht party on the weekend, are you interested in participating?"

"Unfortunately, not available. Song Weiyang said with a smile.

Yang Gongru said again: "If Song Sheng is not used to eating the food here in Hong Kong City, I know that there is a restaurant that makes northern cuisine very well, why don't I take you to try it." ”

Song Weiyang said: "Next time." ”

"Oh," Yang Gongru was quite disappointed, took out her business card and said, "Song Sheng, the next time you come to Hong Kong City, you can come to me for anything." By the way, if your company's products require advertising endorsements, I only charge half price!"

"Half price, that's embarrassing. Song Weiyang couldn't help but want to laugh, the other party's intention was too obvious.

Yang Gongru said: "I believe that Song Sheng's company's products are very good, and the quality is no problem at all. So even if it's a half-price endorsement, it's a good thing for me, and it can broaden my popularity in the mainland. I hope to cooperate more in the future and become good friends with Song Sheng. ”

"Well said. Song Weiyang casually put the business card in his pocket.

The next thing is idle nonsense, Boss Zou didn't talk about movies, and began to talk to Song Weiyang about real estate. Golden Harvest began to invest in real estate several years ago and participated in the investment and construction of many real estate projects.

"Now that the real estate market in Hong Kong City has picked up, I believe that it will rise sharply in the next few years, and it is a good time to buy a house," Boss Zou said, "Song Sheng has so many idle funds in his hands, he can start as soon as possible." If you buy in bulk, I'll give you a 20% discount on the market price. ”

Song Weiyang smiled: "I don't buy residential buildings, only commercial buildings. ”

Who has not studied the real estate of the port city in the mainland, and the routines of the mainland real estate developers have been learned from the predecessors of the port city.

Since Soros's defeat, the property market in Hong Kong City has indeed recovered rapidly, and housing prices can even rise by 20% next year.

At that time, countless people will follow the trend and speculate in real estate, all of which will be trapped, and housing prices will plummet by 65% in the next six years!

The reason for this is the Hong Kong government's housing policy of benefiting the people.

The Hong Kong government found that many people could not afford to live in houses, so in the year of the handover, there was a large-scale housing construction plan. In 1999, the large-scale housing construction plan was officially implemented, and 16 residential plots were sold in one go, and 85,000 housing units were built, and there were policy incentives for the poor to buy houses. Two years later, another 100,000 homes were built, and it is expected that 70% of the people of the port city will have their own homes within ten years.

As a result, housing prices in Hong Kong City have been falling, falling by 65% in six years.

It stands to reason that this is a great thing for the common people, and the house price has come down, and there is finally enough money for a down payment. However, it has been widely criticized by public opinion, because housing prices have fallen too fast, and people who have already bought houses have become negative equity in various ways. Even people who applauded the fall in housing prices last year scolded the government for messing around the next year after buying their own houses, demanding that the government not grant any more land to real estate developers.

Large real estate developers have collectively boycotted the Hong Kong government because their interests have been damaged. As soon as Soros came, the housing prices in Hong Kong City fell by 50%, and finally rose by 20%, and now they are being reduced by another 65% by the Hong Kong government.

As a result, the Hong Kong government's ambitious ten-year large-scale housing construction plan to benefit the people was stranded halfway, and the housing prices in the port city skyrocketed, and the people at the bottom still couldn't afford to buy houses.

Song Weiyang will never touch the residential plate at this time, he only buys commercial buildings at the bottom, because the price of commercial real estate not only does not fall, but will continue to rise, and the more it rises, the more outrageous it becomes.
