86

On December 18th, the first episode of ATV's "Millionaire" program was officially broadcast, and the studio hall with a sense of futuristic science and technology was arranged, supplemented by dynamic music and dazzling lights.

As soon as the simple and easy-to-understand gameplay was launched, thousands of people in Xiangjiang were empty, and the whole city was in front of the TV to see who would win the grand prize. The citizens are so popular that not only the ratings of wireless have been beaten to zero, but even the "Alien ET" released on the Christmas schedule has been affected, and the evening show on the day of the show was not full!

However, this is the first few episodes when everyone looks fresh, and after that, it slowly returns to normal. "Alien ET" gradually revealed the king's atmosphere, and the box office was as high as 32 million after being released on both sides for four weeks, becoming the first film in the history of Xiangjiang with a box office of more than 30 million, and in the same schedule, Golden Harvest's "Scary" starring Hong Jinbao and Zhong Chuhong, who participated in friendship, also exceeded 10 million at the box office.

After the film is drawn, it has entered the annual Spring Festival file, and the main hit of Angel Cinema will be Angel Pictures' highlight "Best Partner: The Great Miracle", Golden Harvest and Shaw Brothers are facing off with "Detective Bald Girl" and "Interstellar Blunt Tire" respectively.

After that, Angel Cinema will release Tsui Hark's painstaking masterpiece "New Shushan Swordsman", this work Fang Jianhui did what he said, and he responded to Xu Ke's requirements, and invested more than 27 million Hong Kong dollars without blinking, which is an unprecedented big production in the history of Xiangjiang films.

Three heavyweight movies in a row have made Fang Jianhui's Angel Cinema the hottest cinema in Hong Kong, 'Watch a movie, go to Angel!', 'Angel Production, it must be a high-quality product.' Slogans such as ' have long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in Xiangjiang.

Ms. Yu, the host of commercial radio, made a small summary of Fang Jianhui at the end of the year. said that he has made four American films in four years, and in addition to winning the North American box office championship for four consecutive years, he also broke N records in a row.

The first "Home Alone" broke the box office record for comedy films, the second "The Sixth Sense" broke the box office record for horror films, the third "Ghost Love" broke the record for romance films, and the latest fourth "Alien ET" broke the record for science fiction films, as well as the box office records for all films.

Four films, four genres, it can be said that Fang Jianhui is familiar with all types of films. What's even more powerful is that he not only makes Western films well, but Hong Kong films are also unbeatable. However, Ms. Yu said that her personal favorite is Fang Jianhui's romance films, whether it is the Western film "Ghost Love", or the Hong Kong film "My Sassy Girlfriend" and "Notting Hill", all of which are ingenious and touching.

Ms. Yu also listed Fang Jianhui's achievements in music, how huge the album sales for Teresa Teng were, how many Oscar nominations she received, how many Billboard champion singles, etc., she said that she was the luckiest thing in her life to be able to be from Xiangjiang with Fang Jianhui, to live in the same era with Fang Jianhui, and to witness the miracles created by Fang Jianhui.

Her summary resonated with countless people, everyone usually knows that Fang Jianhui is very powerful and powerful, but after such a summary, he found that he is even stronger than everyone thinks!

Fang Jianhui ignored these public opinions from the outside world, and at the end of December, it was time for him to make a routine personal annual summary:

In the past 1982, Fang Jianhui personally only made one "Narayama Festival Examination" and "Alien ET", the former has not yet been released, the latter not only set a new highest box office record, but also brought him a series of honors, such as the Presidential Medal of Freedom, Congress Gold Medal, etc.

In terms of records, he accompanied Ye Qianwen to produce "The Wrong Car" and launched "Thriller" by himself.

In terms of women, this year's new girlfriend Nakamori famous dishes, lovers Ye Qianwen (superior Lin Qingxia), Sophie Masu (superior Adjani), currently has a total of four girlfriends, seven lovers (three under Zhong Chuhong, three under Lin Qingxia, one under Adjani), and there is still one girlfriend and two lovers.

His various industrial companies, first look at the United States:

The first is the twentieth century Fox films, among the top ten films at the North American box office in 1982, Fox released films that occupy five exclusive seats, namely "Alien ET" (No. 1), "Officers and Gentlemen" (No. 3), "Rocky 3" (No. 4, from United Pictures, which was acquired by Fox), "Fighting Star" (No. 5) and "48 Hours" (No. 7), and the preliminary calculation of the annual net profit will reach 350 million US dollars, exceeding the net profit of the other six major Hollywood combined! It is the most glamorous movie giant in Hollywood at the moment. Such a high net profit makes it able to invest in expanding the company's scale in addition to paying off Fang Jianhui's annual debts.

The second is the Fox television network, thanks to the continued popularity of "Millionaire" for more than a year, as well as the huge copyright fees charged by TV stations around the world for the introduction of copyrights, as well as "Cosby", "Oprah talk show" and other ace columns, Fox TV Network's profit last year reached 120 million US dollars, although it is still a big step behind the traditional three major TV networks, but it has firmly sat on the position of the fourth largest TV network in the United States. As for the profitability of the TV network, Fang Jianhui will not only not move at all, but will continue to invest funds to support it to expand the number of TV stations and the scale of the TV network.

Then there is Fox Records, thanks to the continued hot sales of Teresa Teng's previous two albums this year, Fox Records has made a good profit this year, reaching more than 20 million US dollars.

For the record company, Fang Jianhui just used it as a tool to make his own woman popular, and did not have too many expectations for its profit.

However, Val Garray, the general manager of Fox Records, obviously did not see it that way, he was gearing up to make the record company bigger and stronger, and in 1982, he signed several potential new stars in one go, and Fang Jianhui swept them one by one, and was shocked by one of the black girls named Jenny Jackson. Vision, Fang Jianhui couldn't help but be impressed by Valgaret, the general manager, who was able to sign such a newcomer to the bunker!

The biggest event of the record company this year is the launch of Fang Jianhui's album "Thriller", the "Thriller" album went on sale in the United States on November 30, 'huh?' Looking at the sales report sent to him by Fox, Fang Jianhui found that something was wrong, this god album with a professional score and a sales score of 99 in the system actually sold 200,000 copies in the first month!?

This result may be acceptable for second- and third-tier singers, but for the combination of Fang Jianhui + Shenzhuan, how is it possible!? After carefully studying this sales report, the puzzled Fang Jianhui finally found the problem - the wrong choice of songs on the list!

It should be said that Fox Records has spared no effort in the promotion of "Thriller", and various video stores, music stations, and TV stations have come up with various publicity methods. After the recording and production of the album was completed, out of confidence in the strength of the other party's Jianhui, General Manager Val Garay even stocked 5 million copies in one go! However, before selling the album, Val Garay made a huge mistake in the indispensable charting link, and the song he chose to launch the chart was "The Girl Is Mine", which was sung by Fang Jianhui and Paul McCartney, and was just a side dish in the album, and it was too reluctant to use it as the main song!

After realizing the problem, Fang Jianhui immediately sent instructions to Val Garray in the United States, and the next chart-hit song was changed to "Billie Jean", followed by "Beat It", "want to Be Startin' Somethin'", "Human Nature", "P.Y.T. (Pretty Young Thing)" and "Thriller".

After hearing his words, Val Garay sincerely admitted his mistake and showed considerable anxiety, but Fang Jian didn't care much, he just delayed the outbreak of this god book a little, it was gold that would shine sooner or later, and it was not worth making a fuss about this kind of thing.

After dealing with the record, it was the turn of Angel Pictures (USA). Angel Pictures (USA) Company's "Alien ET" this year has reached a new high at the global box office, breaking records like picking up grass mustard, and it has also made the company make huge profits, with an annual net profit of 180 million yuan after tax! After transferring $100 million to Xiangjiang as the construction fund for Angel Film and Television City, Fang Jianhui increased the capital of Fox Television Network by $50 million, and also transferred $20 million to Xiangjiang's Asia Television to make up for the loss and increase the capital.

Let's take a look at his various companies in Xiangjiang:

First of all, Asia Television, a major loss-maker, continued to lose money this year, reaching 70 million Hong Kong dollars, but the $5 million in royalties paid to Fox Television accounted for a significant part of this.

However, this price is worth it, in the past year, Asia Television has successfully turned around, in the most important ratings data has reversed the unfavorable situation, and the ratio of TVB's ratings has changed from four or five to five at the end of last year to the current five to four five, achieving a historic transcendence. And in some time periods, some programs have a greater advantage, such as "Millionaire", when it is broadcast, the ratings of wireless often hit single digits.

followed by Angel Pictures, a big profiteering, although Fang Jianhui did not make a film, but only with the efforts of the company's generals, it is enough to make Angel Pictures dominate in Xiangjiang. Among the top 10 films (excluding Western films) in Hong Kong at the box office throughout the year, seven were produced or invested by Angel Pictures, including "Best Partner" (1st), "Hard Brothers" (3rd), "Running to the Angry Sea" (5th), "Little Fear" (6th), "Beware of Little Hands" (7th), "Pretty Girl" (8th) and "Night Terror" (10th).

Then there is Angel Cinemas, which has a strong film schedule throughout the year, with an annual net profit of about 70 million, Angel has a distribution of about 20 million, and Angel Records has about 2 million.

After summing up the industrial company and looking at Fang Jianhui's long-term stock investment, the stock price of the LB company he invested in rose from 14.25 yuan at the beginning of the year to 48 yuan at the end of the year, an annual increase of 236 percent! Since he purchased it in 1980, Fang Jianhui's investment in LB has increased nearly eightfold in more than two years! In the beautiful market performance, Fang Jianhui has not paid enough attention to the news that the company has acquired an underwear company called 'Victoria's Secret' this year.

Fang Jianhui's other investment target, WMT Company, has an annual increase of 134%, and his original investment has also doubled nearly 5 times! Fang Jianhui's accurate stock selection vision makes the investment veteran William have to admire the five-body investment!

William made an estimate of Fang Jianhui's net worth, as of the end of 82, Fang Jianhui's total net worth is conservatively estimated at about 2 billion US dollars, as far as the United States is concerned, it may be ranked in the top three, and in terms of the world, it should also be in the top ten!

It's hard to say exactly how many places to rank, because there is no authoritative ranking at the moment. However, William reminded Fang Jianhui that Fortune magazine seemed to be engaged in this matter, and when the time came, Fang Jianhui would be able to see his position clearly.

This is still because Fang Jianhui's companies are private enterprises and have not been listed, such as the twentieth Century Fox, or Fox TV Network, etc., his net worth will be doubled, and he will be the richest man in the world at that time!

I am probably already the richest man in the world! Fang Jianhui is a little dizzy, is it so easy? I don't seem to have done much, how can I become the richest man in the world in three or four years!?

However, when I think of the existence of such an anti-heaven existence as a 'system', it is reasonable again: although Fang Jianhui is a layman for business management, with the system, he has become the most intelligent decision-maker and money-making machine on the planet; supplemented by the most selfless, loyal, and executive subordinates Andy and William, etc., such a sharp combination is also a logical thing to become the richest man.

Thinking about this, Fang Jianhui had a new question, 'Since I have become the richest man, and as long as there is a system, I will only get richer and richer, so wouldn't other people's future titles, like 'the richest man in China', never come true?'

Don't worry. For a long time, except for the necessary hints, the system god who usually basically ignored Fang Jianhui spoke: "Due to the special nature of the host you, other people's future titles will exclude you. Take the 'richest Chinese' as an example, as long as he is richer than all Chinese except you, this future title will hold. ’

Oh, I see, it makes sense.
