Chapter 0671 Money-making publicity is not delayed
How rich is Japan now? To take one example, it controls the Asian Development Bank in the same way that the United States controls the World Bank.
The World Bank's rules for discourse are simple and crude, that is, whoever has the most shares has the right to speak. Of course, the United States has the largest shareholding, and successive World Bank presidents have been Americans.
According to the regulations, 85 percent of the votes for any important World Bank resolution must be passed. The U.S. has never held less than 15 percent of the shares.
In other words, the United States always has more than 15 percent of the voting power, which gives it a unique veto.
Founded in 1966 and headquartered in Manila, Philippines, the Asian Development Bank (ADB) is modeled after the World Bank's mechanism – whoever has the money wins.
Who is the richest in Asia? Japan, of course! Its stake in the Asian Development Bank increased from 30.4 percent in 1972 to 41.9 percent in 1981, and the upward trend has never stopped.
Although it is still more than two months before 1986, judging from the current data, Japan's shareholding in the Asian Development Bank will certainly exceed 50 percent next year.
It is precisely because of this absolute dominance that it is not surprising that the successive presidents of the Asian Development Bank have been Japanese.
What are the benefits of controlling economic organizations like the World Bank and the Asian Development Bank? The most obvious part is that if you want to join our community, or borrow money from us, then you have to follow our rules of the game and get close to the country at all levels.
China is not yet a member of the Asian Development Bank, but judging from the current progress of negotiations, it is expected to enter the club of Asian economic circles as soon as next year.
It stands to reason that no matter how much of it is blackmailed. Japan, the largest shareholder of the Asian Development Bank, has objectively always promoted the development of the Asian economy and can be regarded as making up for the war crimes committed during World War II.
But this is not the case, and Japan has gained huge economic benefits by carrying private goods in the process.
The Asian Development Bank (ADB) provides loans to Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia, South Korea, the Philippines, and so on. They are all important trading partners of Japan.
This selfishness can be seen from the fact that during the period from 1967 to 1972, when the Asian Development Bank was founded, these countries received 78.48 per cent of the total loans of the Asian Development Bank.
It can be said that the Asian Development Bank is Japan's small finance department. This is also a reason for Japan's willingness to accept the appreciation of the yen, and the Asian Development Bank can help it transfer excess domestic capital.
In addition, almost every Japanese who serves as president of the Asian Development Bank is a star, ambitious and trying to expand the influence of the Asian Development Bank, and thus naturally the largest shareholder of the World Bank. The United States, which is also the second largest shareholder of the Asian Development Bank, has developed ideological differences, which have led to constant friction.
At this year's annual meeting, the American father expressed strong dissatisfaction, believing that the Japanese son who had been raised by himself had stiffened his wings and dared to argue with himself.
Those who flaunt their wealth are always hated, and it is even more especially true if they no longer know how to restrain themselves and are arrogant. Japan at this stage. is in this delicate situation of outward scenery but actually detached from morality.
Among those who are weak, the benefits are naturally rejoicing. Those who don't get it dare to be angry and dare not speak, and the United States, a powerful partner, is obviously thinking about how to beat this slave who is a little disobedient at first.
The film about Japanese orphans that Tang Huan gave birth to is definitely a moral slap in the face, and it is also from the perspective of the Japanese - you are so rich, it doesn't matter if you don't compensate outsiders. How can you be so scoundrel to your own people?
The left-wing forces in Japanese politics, who want to get the right to speak, seized this commanding heights at once and added fuel to the fire. Even if someone wants to get in the way, such as blocking "The Forsaken" from representing Japan in the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film, they don't dare to take the lead.
Although Tang Huan behaved very modestly here in Dongbao. But he is very "interested" in the movie "The Forsaken".
Under this kind of fate, the commercial performance of "The Forsaken" in Japanese theaters is not as high and low as a literary film with a profound ideological theme, and many admiring audiences go to see this movie, which is called beautiful, uncovering the scars of Japan to see how ugly it is.
Tang Huan's private evaluation of "The Forsaken" is that there is no delay in making money and publicity!
As a result, after dealing with the affairs of Japan, after he left for Xiangjiang, he found that there was another movie in a similar situation - Hong Jinbao took his team and personally went to Funan to shoot the movie "Oriental Condor", which was being screened at this time.
When he saw Hong Jinbao, who he hadn't seen for a long time, Tang Huan was very surprised and asked, "I'm not mistaken, you seem to be a lot slimmer, did you deliberately go to lose weight?" ”
Tang Huan's surprise is for a reason, just like in the movie "Fast Food Truck" released before, when Hong Jinbao and Cheng Long, who played private detectives, wanted to enter the castle, he said the line, "When have you ever seen a big stupid elephant climb a tree", and his body is quite bloated.
But now, Hong Jinbao not only looks much slimmer, but even his face has lost a lot of weight.
"Where is it so troublesome." Hong Jinbao, who was teased, replied with a wry smile: "In the past few months of filming "Oriental Condor", I have to ensure the progress and maintain the standard, and I have suffered a lot from filming on the spot in the unfamiliar Funan, and sometimes I have to face the threat of sporadic wars. Fortunately, although "Oriental Condor" has not been released for many days, its performance is not bad. ”
"You've worked hard." Tang Huan nodded appreciatively, "Xiangjiang Communication is doing the marketing of the "Big Brother" brand of mobile phone business, your style is very suitable, go try it." ”
Obviously, this is a reward for Tang Huan to Hong Jinbao, giving him a well-paid advertising endorsement.
"Thank you, Mr. Tang, for taking care of you." Hong Jinbao thanked with a red face.
He just wants to get a recognition from Tang Huan, otherwise he wouldn't be so desperate when filming "Oriental Condor". Now it seems that everything is worth the ticket price.
While continuing to chat with Hong Jinbao, Tang Huan casually flipped through the latest "Movie Merchants Weekly", which had introductions to several movies, including "Oriental Condor". For example, the "Police Story", which will be released soon and directed by Cheng Long himself.
I have to point out that the great prosperity of the entire Xiangjiang entertainment circle, represented by the entry of the golden age of the Xiangjiang film industry, has also further driven the activity of the Xiangjiang media, especially the various gossip reports on the entertainment page, which can be described as endless.
To some extent, Xiangjiang is a star society. Of course. This star not only refers to the focus of the literary and artistic circles, but also includes some people who are good at showmanship in the political and economic fields.
But Xiangjiang is a small place, the circle is limited, and if the hype of celebrities is long, they will be disliked.
In this case, those gossip media, which were already struggling to survive, began to compete for the ability to brush the lower limit, creating all kinds of eye-catching headlines.
For the entertainment industry, it is natural that scandals have become the most popular. It is also the most immediate reporting technique. Perhaps, there is also the tacit optimism of the parties in order to expand their popularity, commercial interests, etc.
Take Cheng Long, who was attacked by his Hollywood peers during the filming of the movie "Weilong Detective", and "Police Story", which was created with all his might to prove himself, staged this kind of farce. Cheng Long and the two beauties in the film, Lin Qingbian and Zhang Manyu, can spread a new version of gossip every day.
In contrast, a few publications such as "Ming Pao Weekly" and "Filmmakers' Weekly" are still clinging to the old and serious reporting style, and disdain those lace news that catch the wind and shadows. In an attempt to please a slightly older, middle-class reader.
After Tang Huan quickly skimmed through a few articles in "Filmmakers Weekly", he roughly understood where the brilliant response of "Oriental Condor" was.
First of all. "Oriental Condor" set a precedent, and the war scenes in it were magnificent, and could even be described as luxurious, which greatly stimulated the audience's adrenaline.
Secondly, the members of the "Hong Family Class" have shown very wonderful skills in all aspects. Let everyone have a new understanding.
In short, the war-torn "Oriental Condor" has given Xiangjiang audiences a novel enough viewing experience.
Another point has to be mentioned is that the Angkor Wat shown in "Oriental Condor" has aroused the interest of many people. And then helped Funando gain a sympathy.
In fact, in Tang Huan's view, as long as this movie set in Funan can attract as many people as possible to watch, it will be considered a success.
According to the statistics of Xiangjiang Cinema Group, "Oriental Condor", which has invested a lot of money, can not only recover its costs, but also make a profit, and "The Forsaken" has also achieved "making money and promoting without delay", what else can he not be satisfied with.
Putting down the "Movie Biweekly" in his hand, Tang Huan instructed: "I haven't watched "Oriental Condor" yet, arrange a special show for me, and then have a celebration banquet with the crew." ”
Hong Jinbao slapped his thigh excitedly, "I knew that Tang Sheng would treat us, so when someone proposed a celebration before, I suppressed it." ”
"After the release of "Oriental Condor" in Funan, I will invite you to a state banquet." Tang Huan patted Hong Jinbao's shoulder and joked, "As long as you don't worry about your figure." ”
……
Tang Huan deliberately held a celebration banquet for a movie he invested in, not to mention the first time in the world, but it was also a very new thing, which attracted many guests, including tycoon-level figures like Zou Wenhuai.
I saw him congratulate Tang Huan with a spring breeze on his face: "The most conservative estimate is that "Oriental Condor" will also be a blockbuster film with a box office of more than 20 million Hong Kong dollars, and Tang Sheng's vision has always been accurate. ”
"I am disrespectful to this compliment, after all, "Zombie Daochang", which everyone was not optimistic about before, staged a big reversal, and also ranked among the blockbuster films with a box office of more than 20 million Hong Kong dollars, I don't admit that I am Bole, and I guess no one agrees. I don't know if Golden Harvest regrets letting me get a piece of the pie. Tang Huan smiled and joked with Zou Wenhuai.
