July 1981.

The government's implementation of a three-tier financial system and tighter control over finance companies have led to a sharp decline in short-term deposits and an accelerated credit contraction.

On July 17, the Association of Banks announced that the interest on savings deposits would be increased from 11% to 12% on July 21, and the property bubble burst as soon as it was destroyed, and the Hang Seng Index also began to fall on that day.

After July, the real estate market will be fully adjusted.

In August, the government issued clear signals of market readjustment in two land transactions:

The first was the announcement that the Government had reached an agreement with the developer, Wai Shing, to resume the 488-hectare Tin Shui Wai land in Yuen Long at a price of $2,258 million.

A week later, the government announced that it was negotiating with China G Bank to sell the Murray Road car park in Central District for $1 billion.

The market was taken by surprise when the news broke, and the real land price showed that the real estate adjustment was inevitable.

In addition, discussions between China and the United Kingdom on the issue of sovereignty over the Hong Kong River reached an impasse -- the British and the British proposed to the China and the G to separate the sovereignty and governance of the Hong Kong River, but Deng Gong believed that China must take back the Xiang River as a whole.

Interest rates continued to climb and credit to banks and finance companies contracted. In addition, the issue of the future of Hong Kong has become superficial. The decline in land prices and property prices has become a trend, and the collapse of the real estate market is inevitable.

At this point, Xu Cun made up his mind that Hongkong Land had become a fish on a chopping board, and when the time came, he could cut off a large piece of it and cook it.

……

"Dao Ma Dan", which took Xu Cun's most painstaking efforts, gave Xu Cun a result that Xu Cun was not very satisfied with but could barely accept.

Xiangjiang main port.

The final box office of "Sword and Horse" was 17.1 million Hong Kong dollars.

"Modern Bodyguard", which fought with "Sword and Horse", finally caught up with and surpassed "Sword and Horse" and achieved a result of 17.7 million Hong Kong dollars.

Desk Bend area.

The final box office of "Sword and Horse" was 52 million Taiwan dollars.

I have to say that the people of Taiwan still buy Xu Cun's account very much, and they also buy the account of the Fabisci Award - in such a special environment, "Dao Ma Dan" can still earn more than 50 million Taiwan dollars at the box office in Taiwan, which is really commendable!

Nanyang region.

The final box office of "Knife and Horse" was $4.3 million.

Compared with Xu Cun's previous achievements, this time in the Nanyang region, Xu Cun is a miss.

Japan region.

The final box office of "Sword and Horse" was 1.1 billion yen.

The success of "Dao Ma Dan" in Japan is entirely due to Xu Cun's past glory in Japan - to be honest, Japanese audiences are not very fond of movies like "Dao Ma Dan" with strong Chinese characteristics. The reason why they originally wanted to go to the cinema to watch "Dao Ma Dan" was mainly because Xu Cun was the pride of Asians.

South Korea.

The final number of viewers of "Sword and Horse" was 280,000.

The situation in South Korea is similar to that in Japan, if "Dao Ma Dan" is not directed by Xu Cun, it is estimated that the number of moviegoers will not exceed 50,000.

Central & South America and Europe.

The final box office of "Knife and Horse" was $2.6 million. (Due to the poor performance of "Knife Horse" in North America, Twentieth Century Fox Film Company did not help Xu Cun distribute "Knife Horse" in Central and South America and Europe, but "Knife Horse" is a Fipresci Award-winning film after all, and Xu Cun's name is big, so there are still many speculators who come to the door to ask for the distribution rights of "Knife Horse" in Central and South America and Europe.) Xu Cun adhered to the principle that mosquito legs are also meat, and handed over "Dao Ma Dan" to these small distribution companies for distribution. ）

Plus, "Knife Horse" grossed $5.4 million in North America.

The total global box office of "Knife and Horse" is: $27 million.

Dreams Works' head was $9.2 million.

The production cost of "Sword and Horse" is: six million dollars.

The cost of promoting "Knife and Horse," paid by DreamWorks, was: half a million dollars.

"Dao Ma Dan" finally made a profit for Xu Cun: 2.7 million US dollars, which is 12 million Hong Kong dollars.

To be honest, the results of "Sword and Horse" in Asia are not bad, and even the results in the United States and Europe are not unacceptable.

However, due to Xu Cun's expectations for "Dao Ma Dan" are too high, the production cost of "Dao Ma Dan" is too high, and then Xu Cun's "Dao Ma Dan" only earned 12 million Hong Kong dollars for Xu Cun, which is millions less than "Happy Ghost".

After learning the hard way, Xu Cun came to a conclusion: this road is not working!

Xu Cun has never been a person who goes against the trend - he always thinks that going against the trend is naïve.

Therefore, Xu Cun secretly made up his mind - he will never make a movie with Chinese characteristics like "Dao Ma Dan" in the future.

……

At the finale banquet of "Happy Ghost Summer Vacation".

"Annie, I lack a life assistant, would you like to help me?" Xu Cun, who was slightly drunk, pretended to be drunk and took Bai Anni's hand and said.

"I ......," Boanne hesitated.

Seeing that if it continued, there was a chance that Bai Ani would become Xu Cun's life assistant, and then he would be eaten by Xu Cun, a big pervert, and there would be no bones left, Yuan Jieying hurriedly picked up the wine glass and stepped forward, saying, "Boss, I toast you!" ”

In the past few months, Yuan Jieying has mixed up Xu Cun several times - if Yuan Jieying was not here, Bai Anni might have given Xu Cun a long time ago.

Who is Xu Cun?

He is a person who has been mixed in the big dye vat of the film and television industry for two lifetimes!

What hasn't he seen? What can't you think of?

Xu Cun didn't even look at Yuan Jieying, and said, "I don't like wine." ”

At this moment, Li Lizhen also came here, and then she said in a sweet and greasy voice: "Brother Cun, what do life assistants need to do?" Am I up to the task? ”

Glancing at Li Lizhen, Xu Cun said secretly: "This girl is even more ghostly, it seems that she can fall down as soon as she pushes it, but she can't push it down, and she can always avoid me without a trace...... It's a pity that she is so young that she doesn't know the truth that she has to pay if she wants to get it. ”

"My life assistant is very easy to do, mainly to help me with some trivial things in life. Well...... The only bad thing is that you stay with me longer...... Annie, can you help me? Xu Cun looked at Bai Anni with tender eyes.

Bo Anni likes Xu Cun very much, not mixed with anything else, just just like it! Facing the tenderness of the person he likes, Bo Ani seemed to be electrocuted, and then nodded lightly uncontrollably.

Seeing Bai Anni nodding, Yuan Jieying said in her heart: "It's not good! ”

Glancing at Yuan Jieying, and then at Li Lizhen, Xu Cun said indifferently: "If you are not afraid of **, come together." ”
