"Hollywood companies, the adaptation of a movie, the cost of more than 100 million dollars, there are a bunch of them every year!" Zhang Shaojie said, "Actually, these works of mine are very atmospheric, and they can't show those scenes at all with traditional shooting techniques. Without a huge amount of money, I couldn't shoot the effect I wanted! That's why I strictly limit the scale of investment to 100 million or even 300 million! ”

Zhang Shaojie's heart is also too big.

He felt that this small pond in Hong Kong could only be used as a litmus test. Film and television works, the real big market, at least the whole of Asia. Further, it's the whole world.

Unlike looking at the world, film and television products that do not have the ambition to dominate the world are easy to be eliminated. Because, the film and television works themselves should be global surnames.

Only considering the gains and losses of one city and one place, then sooner or later it will be able to sweep the world and cut off the way of life when the strong enemy persecuted it.

Hong Kong's film and television works, in fact, have a very narrow living space - Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Singapore.

The mainland market can only hope to quench its thirst. In overseas markets, most of them find Hong Kong works incomprehensible.

For Zhang Shaojie, if film and television works cannot be understood by the market. Obviously, it's not the market's problem, it's the business strategy that has gone wrong. As long as the business strategy is right, it will naturally be able to continuously launch masterpieces that are popular in the market.

"Okay, you're bullish!" Shen Baoxin gave a thumbs up.

Soon after, Shen Baoxin began to ask Zhang Shaojie for advice.

"Ming Pao" Group, this year is preparing to set up four magazines: "Fantasy and Xianxia", "Thriller and Detective", "Youth Campus" and "Urban Ability", and resolutely carry out the genre strategy to the end.

In addition, this year, the scale of funds for the acquisition of long-form film and television, animation and other related adaptation rights will reach 5 million Hong Kong dollars, and it is planned to acquire the adaptation rights of 100 films.

Moreover, it is not limited to acquiring the adaptation rights of Hong Kong writers, but also looking at the entire Chinese-speaking community. If mainland writers sell the rights to adapt their excellent works to the Ming Pao Group, Ming Pao also welcomes them.

Zhang Shaojie agreed: "The magazine is more subdivided, which helps to open up new and newer markets. Sooner or later, the adaptation value of copyright will be valued by other peers. The earlier the acquisition, the more Ming Pao will be able to seize more excellent copyright resources. By the way, does the teacher agree to this matter? ”

"Mr. Cha is mainly busy with political issues now, but I have consulted him on all these matters. Mr. Cha agrees! Shen Baoxin said with a smile.

"Still, that's it! Editing resources has become an important constraint. I suggest inviting some older writers to be editors! Zhang Shaojie said with a smile, "This old writer is familiar with the publishing and adaptation market, and basically, a little on-demand is an excellent editor!" ”

"Hehe, there is a saying among writers that 'young people don't work hard, and the boss becomes an editor', in fact, many out-of-fashion famous writers have no inspiration, and most of them choose to be editors!" Shen Baoxin agreed.

In fact, Shen Baoxin knew that Zhang Shaojie would be the next generation of leaders of Ming Pao sooner or later. Jin Yong publicly stated that Zhang Shaojie was always welcome to acquire the shares of Ming Pao in his possession in cash.

However, for the time being, Zhang Shaojie is not ready to take over the Ming Pao Group so soon.

After all, the current operation of ATV has not yet entered the normal track. At least until ATV's total liabilities are gradually reduced to less than 100 million. At that time, when the interest on debt no longer caused financial pressure on ATV, Zhang Shaojie was ready to make new investments.

Of course, in addition to the pressure on ATV, Zhang Shaojie is also waiting for a more appropriate investment opportunity.

Historical experience tells Zhang Shaojie that in September 82, British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher fell outside the Great Hall of the People in Yanjing. However, Hong Kong's economic environment has deteriorated further, and the exchange rate of the Hong Kong dollar has plummeted rapidly in time and space, from the current 6 Hong Kong dollars to 1 US dollar, to 10 Hong Kong dollars to 1 US dollar.

It was not until '83 that Hong Kong implemented exchange rate reform. The exchange rate of the Hong Kong dollar and the US dollar is fixed at around 7.8:1, with small fluctuations. The issuance of the Hong Kong dollar is no longer based on credibility, but on the foreign exchange reserves of the US dollar, which has strengthened the public's confidence in the Hong Kong dollar.

However, this year there is a large investment in Hong Kong, holding Hong Kong dollars. It will definitely suffer from three pressures: the expansion of accomplices, the depreciation of real estate, the depreciation of currencies, and so on.

"By the way, the Sino-British negotiations have caused economic instability in Hong Kong. The Hong Kong dollar will be psychologically affected in the short term, and the possibility of being sold off and depreciated has increased significantly. "Ming Pao" should take precautions, at least exchange the cash on the company's books for foreign exchange such as US dollars and yuan. Wait until the Hong Kong dollar depreciates sharply before it is converted back again. "Zhang Shaojie reminded him of the financial panic atmosphere in Hong Kong in the coming months.

At this time, throwing out Hong Kong dollars to exchange foreign exchange seems a bit unjust.

However, in the next few months, many people will be refused to pay in Hong Kong dollars, and those shops will only accept US dollars or hard currencies such as gold.

People generally seek good fortune and avoid evil, and morally know that selling the Hong Kong dollar will only lead to the aggravation of the depreciation of the Hong Kong dollar and the loss of Hong Kong's interests as a whole. However, if it does not sell, it will suffer losses from the depreciation of the Hong Kong dollar in the future.

Shen Baoxin nodded cautiously and said: "I will let the company's finance convert half of the cash reserves into foreign exchange!" Check in the bud! ”

———————————— reminded "Ming Pao" to sell Hong Kong dollars and exchange foreign currencies at the same time.

Zhang Shaojie's industry is actually doing the same thing.

Tianxia Publishing Company also sold cash worth 70 million Hong Kong dollars and exchanged it for more than 10 million US dollars. ATV sold HK$50 million in cash and converted it into US dollars.

Dragon Entertainment also sold most of its cash and exchanged $2 million in foreign exchange deposits.

As for Xiaobawang Company, the account was originally mainly in yuan, US dollar, RMB and other currencies, and as for the Hong Kong dollar, less than 5 million Hong Kong dollars are usually reserved for the Hong Kong headquarters to pay the salaries of employees.

At this time, Xiaobawang already has $150 million in currency deposits. Moreover, the monthly profit is more than $20 million.

The market of ORD technology companies is basically in the United States. Because, the company has 50 million US dollars in foreign exchange deposits, and it also seems to be rich.

And Zhang Shaojie's own bank account, the dividends in the book have brought him a huge sum of 20 billion yuan. In U.S. dollars, it would be $100 million.

Naturally, Zhang Shaojie was brainless to convert the yuan at this time into dollars.

It must be known that in the financial history of the 80s, the appreciation of the yuan and the square treaty can be described as major events that have been written into financial textbooks.

Because, the price competitiveness of the products in Europe and the United States is very strong, resulting in the continuous trade deficit of European and American countries. In particular, the US political axe believes that the main culprit of the economic recession is the products of the United States, which are constantly dumping in the United States. As a result, the domestic economy of the United States has deteriorated and unemployment is high.

Because the United States has repeatedly made Yueben a "responsible power", it has constantly united with the finance ministers of many European countries to force the appreciation of the yuan along the way.

In fact, before the Square Treaty. In fact, the yuan has risen from 300 yuan to 1 dollar, and has appreciated to 200 yuan to 1 dollar. However, the products still have a competitive price advantage, so European and American countries are not satisfied, so they will propose a more radical "Plaza Treaty" to force the Yuan to further appreciate.

In the early 80s, when European and American countries forced Yueben to become a "responsible power", in fact, there were already trillions of dollars of hot money, either overtly or covertly.

After the Plaza Treaty, the exchange rate between the yuan and the US dollar quickly rose from 200:1 to 150:1, 120:1, and even 80:1.

When the financial capital of the United States fully enjoyed the appreciation of the yuan, the assets brought about by the skyrocket. At least the countries of Europe and the United States have obtained "dividends" of several trillion dollars! These dividends of financial plunder were continuously injected into the real economy of the United States, Europe, and other countries in the 90s, stimulating the economic boom of Europe and the United States for 10 years.

Huge amounts of wealth have been continuously transferred out of the capital by financial capitalists in Europe and the United States. This is the root cause of the economy in the 90s ~ 21st century.

That kind of large-scale wool cutting is not something that a businessman of Zhang Shaojie's level can play.

At the very least, it takes the super-invisible super-rich to the extent that they can indulge the political axe of the United States to be able to do such a big deal.

This is because with this understanding, Zhang Shaojie also knows that the so-called financial speculators have prophetic wisdom and can predict economic trends, which is obviously false.

The profiteering model of an international financier is similar to that of a robber – holding a knife and saying to the other party: "Hand over your cash, or it will kill you!" ”

The knife of a financier is actually a political and military force.

There is no world hegemon-level force, and it is basically a joke to play and loot the world. Because, no country's political axe is really brainless, and it is not known that it is looted by the other party's use of financial tools. Unless, the strength of the robber is so strong that the robbed person dares to be angry but does not dare to speak, it can proceed smoothly.

Zhang Shaojie's advantage now is that he knows that a certain robber is ready to rob a certain rich fat sheep. Therefore, he was going to follow the robbers, and when the robbers had too much loot and were too lazy to pick them up on the ground, he would quietly pick up some leaks.

It is actually very simple to pick up the leak of the appreciation of the currency.

Nothing more than investing in real estate in the world, or stocks of real estate-related companies. If it goes further, it will borrow directly from the bank of the company and speculate on the real estate and stocks of the company. As long as you get out of the bubble before the collapse of the bubble in the 90s, these speculative behaviors can make people a huge rich!
