Chapter 343: Feng Shui Takes Turns

readx;

The film industry is always in flux, and major companies have their own periods of time, and it is difficult for anyone to attract the audience's attention all the time. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Top Novel,

With the successive paintings of "No Thieves in the World" and "Kung Fu", the beautiful Huayi Brothers Film Company has also begun to return to the dull.

Next, the film market ushered in the time period when the little partner companies were in the limelight.

February 5, 2005, before the Spring Festival. "Hancheng Raiders", co-produced by the partner company and Media Asia, was simultaneously released in China, Hong Kong and South Korea.

At the request of the partner company, director Ma Chucheng held a press conference in Hong Kong on the same day, and led the crew to hold another press conference in SZ City in the mainland.

SZ City and Hong Kong are only separated by one city, so under such a trick, on the same day, the same crew, held two press conferences, which fully shows that the crew is hard enough.

Ma Chucheng is full of confidence in "Hancheng Raiders", saying: "I am very confident that this movie is currently a global box office of more than 100 million Hong Kong dollars, or 100 million yuan!" ”

The reason why Ma Chucheng is so confident is not pure bragging, because his past results are really beautiful, and he is also eager to reach a new high at the box office.

Ma Chucheng, who debuted in the 80s, has been a photographer for more than ten years, and he has participated as a photographer in a bunch of popular movies such as "Prison Storm", "Frozen Wonder", "Yoshiko Kawashima", "Drunken Fist 2", "Fang Shiyu", "Huang Feihong", "Red Fan District" and so on.

At the end of the 90s, unwilling to be a photographer all the time, Ma Chucheng also began to transform into a director, and the works he directed, "Phantom Attack", "Star Wish", and "Tokyo Raiders" have won successive battles, and few have failed.

"Hancheng Raiders" is a companion to his other blockbuster work, "Tokyo Raiders".

2000's "Tokyo Raiders" achieved nearly 30 million box office in Hong Kong. The mainland box office also has 10 million yuan.

In 2005, the box office market in the mainland was significantly more prosperous than five years ago, and Ma Chucheng expected that overseas markets might also achieve results that were not inferior to "Tokyo Raiders".

It is precisely because of this that Ma Chucheng's optimistic expectations shouted the goal of 100 million box office!

A few years ago, "Tokyo Raiders" was a big hit. What's more critical is that "Tokyo Raiders" once entered the Japanese market with the help of movie titles and themes, and harvested a lot of yen. And when you hear the name of "Hancheng Raiders", you know that you want to repeat the old tricks, not only to win the box office in the Chinese film industry, but also to have ambitions for the Korean box office market.

It can't be said that director Ma Chucheng is too ambitious, in fact, he predicts that he is generally correct. The other half is wrong. What is correct is that Ma Chucheng's estimate of the mainland film box office market is correct, but he overestimated the box office of "Hancheng Raiders" in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Japan and South Korea.

"Watching a movie?" A young man asked a young woman on a blind date.

"Okay!" The young woman smiled shyly.

Walking into the cinema, the young man asked, "What movie are you watching?" "You know, it's all multiple screens nowadays, and a movie theater can be showing three or four different movies at the same time.

"I'll watch "Hancheng Raiders"!" The current Hallyu has an impact on young women similar to Japanese anime on anime otaku. The influence of online games on many adolescents is average.

"Good!" Although the young man doesn't like the "Korean Wave" very much, he is smart and knows. If you want to convince each other with a girl, you can only be a magician. Years of painful lessons have made him know how to cater to girls' preferences.

After the two walked into the viewing hall, they found that the movie theater was at least fifty percent full, which was already quite popular.

Hundreds of movie screens across the country simultaneously screened "Hancheng Raiders". Although the amount of filming is not as good as some top blockbusters, it is also quite difficult.

And the box office data of this movie is obviously worthy of the amount of filming.

At least, several movies released at the same time, including "Lover's Knot", "Beautiful Home", "Hainan Chicken Rice", "Two Birds with One Stone with One Stone", "Who Am I Crazy For", and "Beauty Remains", have basically become foils.

Except that "Two Birds with One Stone" is a comedy. Most of the others are more literary, literary, and not popcorn movies that ordinary audiences like to watch.

Not only these domestic movies and Hong Kong and Taiwan movies, but even the performance of "Reckless Disaster" and "The Incredibles" in the domestic box office market is also very ordinary, far less popular than "Hancheng Raiders"!

And "Hancheng Raiders" is first of all "Han", which attracts a large number of young women, and young women take the bait, and young men who accompany young women to watch movies also have to obediently contribute to the box office together!

In addition, compared with the movie "Hancheng Raiders" in the same period, it is also a lively commercial film, with superstars, action and funny, some beauties, and some exotic Korean customs.

In this way, the Spring Festival schedule "Hancheng Raiders" is naturally outstanding!

Many people think that "Hancheng Raiders" is a Korean film, but in fact, this is a huge misunderstanding. Because, judging from the script, director and cast, this movie is an authentic Hong Kong film - Tony Leung, Ren Xianqi, Shu Qi, etc., however, for box office considerations, this movie also introduced some Japanese and Korean actors to act as green leaves. The filming location is in South Korea, to put it simply, South Korea is used as the background, but the method of making movies is still the way of Hong Kong films.

In short, "Hancheng Raiders", a movie with an investment of 40 million Hong Kong dollars, is surprisingly popular. The box office on the first day reached 6.8 million yuan, and the box office on the second day added up to 10 million.

However, the popularity of this film is only limited to the Chinese mainland market. In other markets, the Hong Kong and Taiwan box office markets reflect very generally, not too good or too bad, but the Korean market, which has high hopes, is a mess on the street, only tested in a movie theater, and soon after, it was painted because of the average response.

Therefore, "Hancheng Raiders" wanted to cheat money in South Korea, but it shamefully failed. The film, the Korean version, only grossed more than $2,000 in total after its release.

In addition, the performance of "Hancheng Raiders" in Hong Kong is also very average, far less popular than the mainland market. It is estimated that the total box office potential in the future will only be one-fifth of the mainland box office at most.

The reason why this is the case is because mainland audiences are not tired of watching this type of Hong Kong film, while Hong Kong audiences seem to be. I don't like this kind of Hong Kong film that is becoming more and more Hong Kong, and relatively outside, it is better to watch Hollywood blockbusters. In fact, the culprit that caused the box office of "Hancheng Raiders" in Hong Kong and Taiwan to be flat was also caused by the Hollywood blockbusters of the opponents in the same period.

However, Boss Lin of Media Asia. I was not jealous of the small partner company, but put a long line to catch big fish, and the cooperative relationship between the two continued.

It is estimated that Media Asia also intends to use the foundation of the partner company in China to pave the market first, and whether it will continue to cooperate with the partner company in the future, it is estimated that it will take a step by step.

And the doctrine of the small partner company is similar, and from the perspective of several listed companies controlled by the boss of Media Asia, many of them belong to "old thousand shares". specializes in pit investors' stocks, which shows that he is not a good person.

Generally, when market makers do stocks, they are pulling up and selling, that is, "speculating upward"!

In Hong Kong's stock market, due to the connivance of listed companies, some strange bookmakers have created a second speculation method that cannot be found in the world's financial market - "downward speculation"!

Since the downward fry was invented. The Hong Kong stock market is world-famous, in the history of human stock trading. But this kind of stir-fry has never happened!

The so-called downward speculation is that the controlling shareholder sells the company's shares indefinitely, assuming that the company's net assets per share are 10 yuan, and the annual profit is one dollar, it is impossible for the boss to sell the shares at a price of less than 10 yuan.

However, this is not the case with the majority shareholders who smoke the old thousands. He sells stocks all the way, how much you want, how much he sells, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5! Exhaust the funds of some investors who bought the bottom, and then. He will not pull the stock up, but choose to issue new shares for 4 yuan! Because the Hong Kong stock market allows the issuance of new shares at a price lower than the net assets, and if the majority shareholder holds a controlling stake, he will work with other distributors to facilitate the board of directors to approve the additional shares at a low price. In this way, the equity he sold with 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, and 5 yuan was not only bought back at a lower price, but also increased compared to before!

As for the stock with assets of 10 yuan, the additional issue price per share is 4 yuan, and on average, the assets per share will naturally decrease. It is equivalent to pulling shareholders and robbing other shareholders!

Of course, sometimes the major shareholders of listed companies who draw thousands of dollars pretend that other investors can also participate in low-priced stock offering. For stocks with assets of 10 yuan per share, everyone can contribute together, and you can participate in the additional issuance at the price of two or three yuan per share, and you can make money together.

But in fact, ordinary investors participating in the cheap additional issuance of thousands of shares will not be wiped out, but will continue to suffer at the beginning, because the downward speculation of thousands of major shareholders. will continue to sell and speculate low, and continue to rob by selling at a high price and issuing new shares at a low price.

And this practice is legal in the Hong Kong stock market!

In Hong Kong, there was once a situation where the boss of a listed company "speculated" a stock of more than 500 yuan a share into a few cents a share.

This kind of infinitely low-priced additional rights issue draws thousands of dollars, unlimited selling. Many investors have received the world's largest risk education.

Therefore, investors in Hong Kong stocks are deeply educated about the world's most brutal risks. I know, I will never be able to play with the major shareholders of the old thousand shares, so for many old thousands of shares and listed companies that are suspected of being thousands of shares, I will never touch them.

Lin Jianyue controls a number of companies with thousands of shares, including Media Asia, which is actually regarded as "thousands of shares" by the market. This kind of boss, when dealing with him, naturally be careful, beware of him "smoking a thousand"!

For example, the parent company of Media Asia, another listed company, eSun Holdings, has a share price that has been far below its net worth for a long time, but who would dare to buy eSun Holdings? Because, everyone, but, the bigwigs of listed companies, they can smoke thousands at any time!

Of course, Hong Kong's entertainment industry is in a recession, and many entertainment listed companies are related to the underworld, and the underworld knows that there is a legal way to make money by investing in stocks downward and making steady profits.

The film and television entertainment companies in the Hong Kong stock market, except for a few such as TV broadcasting (that is, TVB), which belong to stable dividends and return shareholders, do not engage in the withdrawal of thousands of dollars, the vast majority of entertainment company stocks are well-known thousands of shares.

It is precisely for this reason that it is reasonable to discriminate against the entertainment industry in society.

In terms of atmosphere, not to mention all kinds of "unspoken rules", as far as the film and television entertainment companies listed in Hong Kong are concerned, the vast majority of entertainment companies listed have become thousands of shares, which can very well show that the people in the entertainment industry are sinister!
