Chapter 187: "Jingwumen" is on fire!

On Sunday, January 17, Bao Yugang and his wife came to Li Hualong's house as a guest.

After chatting for a while, Bao Yugang and Li Hualong talked about business.

"Aaron, I hope that Global Shipping Group will be listed in May or June next year, do you think it is feasible?"

"Brother Bao, when the Global Shipping Group will be listed, you decide, no matter what you think, I will support it."

"Now the total share capital of Global Shipping Group is 20 million shares, if the stock is not split, directly issue new shares for financing, then the stock price will definitely be very high, I think before the listing, Global Shipping's shares will be split."

"Okay, then let's split it, the split is a little more detailed, and the issue price per share should not exceed two Hong Kong dollars."

"That's what I thought, it's a coincidence!" Bao Yugang nodded with a hearty smile, "If it is listed within half a year, not counting the newly issued shares, the market value of Global Shipping Group is expected to reach 3 billion Hong Kong dollars." One share was split into 200 shares, and the total share capital became 2 billion shares, and if the market value was 3 billion, the share price would be 1.5 Hong Kong dollars. ”

Li Hualong smiled and said: "I don't have a problem here, HSBC is over there, I need Brother Bao to say hello." ”

Bao Yugang smiled: "We all agreed, and HSBC can't oppose it if it wants to." ”

Li Yisong interjected: "Yugang, have you ever thought that after the Global Shipping Group is listed, it will sell some stocks and invest in other industries? ”

"I've thought about it." Bao Yugang replied, "Before, I talked to my family about investing in the real estate industry, but in the past two years, Hong Kong's real estate industry has been too prosperous, and there may be room for growth in the future, but there will definitely be an inflection point, and housing prices will fall when they reach their peak." I don't think it's the best time to invest in real estate. ”

Li Hualong said: "Brother Bao, if you are interested in investing in the real estate industry, we can cooperate, invest in a project, test the water first, and then invest a large amount of money in the real estate industry when the time comes." ”

"I'm interested." Bao Yugang said happily, "However, aren't you afraid of another opponent in the future?" ”

"Don't be afraid!" Li Hualong smiled, "I am very optimistic about the long-term prospects of Hong Kong real estate and am willing to be a big friend." My business will not be limited to Hong Kong, but I will expand my overseas investment in the future. ”

"A while ago, I went to Japan, and Japanese business partners to eat together, when chatting, he took the initiative to mention you, saying that you are a shareholder of SONY, in recent years, the stock price has soared, you invested in this company, the book income is amazing, enviable, and you are particularly good at investment."

"I said I don't have an investment vision, you definitely don't believe it." Li Hualong smiled and said, "Vision is important, and luck is also very important." I think that investing in a company can achieve huge returns, and it depends on the company's ability to control people, and Brother Bao is a person with outstanding ability. Compared with the income from investing in SONY, the income from my investment in Global Shipping Group is greater. ”

"I wouldn't deny you what you can, but you've invested in SONY for a shorter period of time, less than five years, right?"

Bao Yugang asked, saw Li Hualong nodded, and continued: "Global Shipping Group has been established for 16 years, which is more than three times that of five years, if you invest in SONY company, the book profit is more than 10 times, if you calculate according to such income, your income from investing in Global Shipping Group will be more than 1000 times, that year, you invested 2 million Hong Kong dollars, 1,000 times, but it is 2 billion, and the market value of your shares in Global Shipping is not as much as 2 billion...... So, you have a bigger return on investing in SONY. ”

"We are talking about different angles of income, the income you are talking about is the average annual return on investment of a project, and the income I am talking about is the net profit of a project. I own shares in Global Shipping Group and SONY, the former with a higher market capitalization. Anyway, so far, I have had great success investing in these two projects and I am very satisfied! ”

"If you continue to invest in the shares of these two companies for three or five years, the net profit of investing in SONY is higher."

"I hear what you mean," Li Hualong smiled, "Do you think that in the next three to five years, SONY's stock price will rise more than that of Global Shipping Group." ”

"That's right!" Bao Yugang smiled and nodded.

"Huh!" Li Yisong smiled and said in a joking tone, "Yugang, if you really think so, after the Global Shipping Group is listed, you will sell some of your shares and switch to buy SONY shares." ”

"After the listing of Global Shipping, my family and I are no longer the absolute controlling shareholders of this company, and if we sell a lot of shares, it may cause the stock price to plummet, and the controlling stake in the company will be lost." Bao Yugang said.

"Brother Bao, you don't have to worry that I will control the Global Shipping Group, and I won't tell you that after this company goes public, as long as the stock price is right, I will continue to reduce my shares."

Li Hualong paused and continued: "If one day in the future someone wants to compete with you for the controlling stake in the Global Shipping Group, the stock voting rights in my hand will fully support you, and I will also support you financially." ”

"Thank you!" Bao Yugang smiled heartily and raised the teacup, "I'll replace wine with tea, toast you!" ”

Li Hualong raised the teacup with a smile, touched it carefully, drank the tea in the cup in one gulp, then put down the teacup, picked up the teapot, and poured half a cup of tea for Bao Yugang first.

When pouring tea for himself, Li Hualong said: "Brother Bao, I heard that you have a good relationship with Singapore's Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew. ”

"It's okay, if you want to invest in Singapore, I can introduce you."

"I thank Brother Bao in advance, within two years, I will definitely go to Singapore to invest."

"Lee Kuan Yew knew that Hong Kong's God of Wealth would invest in Singapore, and he would definitely welcome it."

At noon that day, Bao Yugang and his wife had lunch at Li Hualong's house, and after lunch and chatting for more than an hour, Bao Yugang and his wife said goodbye and left.

More than a week later, on January 25, the day before Chinese New Year's Eve, "Jingwumen" finished filming.

On February 22, Li Hualong, Wang Tianlin and others watched "Jingwumen", which had just completed the post-production of Zuò.

After watching the film, Li Hualong nodded with satisfaction, stretched out his hand to Wang Tianlin with a smile, shook it, and said with a smile: "Tianlin, this movie is very good, no accident, it can set a new box office record in Hong Kong." ”

"The film "Jingwumen" can be filmed well, first of all, thanks to the strong support given by the boss in terms of budget, and actors such as Songhai and Xiaolong worked hard in the process of making this film, and they also provided a lot of valuable advice." Wang Tianlin said with a smile.

"Of course I know that everyone has contribution, and when this movie is finished, as long as it can break the box office record, everyone will have a red envelope to get!"

"New Tangshan Big Brother" was released in Hong Kong two months later, and finally received a box office of 3.58 million Hong Kong dollars, in order to celebrate the box office success of this movie, Li Hualong took out a total of 150,000 Hong Kong dollars as a red envelope to distribute to the film's creative staff.

After Li Hualong watched "Jingwumen", Huayi Brothers contacted the heads of various movie theaters in Hong Kong and invited them to watch the film.

On Sunday, February 28, "Jingwumen" was released in Hong Kong.

In addition to the publicity fee, Huayi Brothers invested in the filming of the movie "Jingwumen", which cost more than 2.2 million Hong Kong dollars, becoming the most expensive film in Hong Kong's history.

At the beginning, the filming budget of "New Tangshan Big Brother" was 2 million Hong Kong dollars, and director Zhang Che did not try his best to spend this money, thinking about making a good movie at the same time, he thought of a lot of ways to save money, and in the end, the post-production cost and publicity fee of this film were less than 2 million Hong Kong dollars, with a total investment of 1.96 million Hong Kong dollars.

The record cost of "Jingwumen" is not the biggest selling point, the biggest selling point is Song Songhai and Bruce Lee, the two kung fu superstars of all ages, and Li Hualong is also one of the selling points of the screenwriter of this movie.

Li Hualong's movie script has established a very good reputation in Hong Kong, and several Hong Kong media have published such articles, in which they introduced how much money Li Hualong can make a day, and how much time it takes to write a movie script.

On the day of the release of "Jingwumen" in Hong Kong, "South China Daily" published such an article, which mentioned the news of the release of "Jingwumen", but focused on reporting how many assets Li Hualong has, and predicting how much money Li Hualong has earned in the past year, refined to how much money can be made in an average minute, and finally concluded that Li Hualong wrote the script of the movie "Jingwumen", and the time cost was high.

This morning, Li Hualong had breakfast at home, came to the living room to read the newspaper, saw this report, and muttered: "Nonsense! ”

"Who's?" Liu Minchen, who was sitting next to Li Hualong, asked with a smile.

"Nanhua Daily wrote an article saying that my time is precious, and the time cost of writing the script for the movie "Jingwumen" is very high, and the meaning of this article is that even if this movie is a box office hit, I should not spend this time. Bullshit, this author didn't think about it at all, maybe I thought of it, but I deliberately didn't write it, I have made a lot of money in the past year, even if I reduce my working hours by half, I may still be able to make so much money......"

Li Hualong paused as he spoke, shook his head with a smile, and then nodded and said: "The reporter writes the article to eat for a while, this reporter writes like this, readers love to read it, long live understanding!" ”

"I thought you were going to sue him!" Liu Minchen joked.

"In your eyes, am I the kind of person who bullies and makes trouble?" Li Hualong smiled bitterly.

"Of course not, just kidding." Liu Minchen said with a smile.

"Sometimes, that's the kind of person you are." Yang Meng joked with a smile.

Li Hualong smiled helplessly and did not answer.

Before the release of "Jingwumen", it attracted a lot of attention, but after the release, the audience's reputation exploded, not only was it widely reported by the media, but many viewers recommended to their relatives and friends around to watch this movie, and various reasons caused the audience to flock to the movie to watch this movie.

Thousands of empty alleys, this idiom is used to describe the grand occasion after the release of "Jingwumen", which is very appropriate.

In the film, Bruce Lee's fearless spirit and amazing fighting skills, especially the "Li Sanjiao" and "Lying on the Ground" and "Nunchucks" in the performance, are full of praise.

Song Songhai played Huo Yuanjia in "Jingwumen", although there are not many scenes, but his performance is also very good, and he played Huo Yuanjia's chivalrous spirit to the fullest, and he successfully won the Best Supporting Actor Award at the 1972 Hong Kong Golden Horse Awards for his outstanding performance in this movie.

Soon after the film was released in Hong Kong, many young people in Hong Kong learned Bruce Lee's fighting moves in the movie, although the movements were not standard, but many people shouted "I" like Bruce Lee's shouts.

Once, when Li Hualong heard an employee and colleague of Hualong Real Estate Company playing around, he also shouted "I'm da", at that time, he moved such an idea, that is, to let TVB hold a program, inviting Bruce Lee's fans to imitate Bruce Lee's role in the movie, this idea, flashed by, and when Bruce Lee died, Li Hualong remembered this idea again, TVB specially made several episodes of "Remembering Bruce Lee" program, these episodes of the program ratings are very high.
