Chapter 817: Cinema Land Profits
The news of Yindu Cinema Line and Xinbao Cinema Line withdrawing from the alliance spread far and wide, and Chen Baixiang, Wang Jin, Mecca and others received the notice of the meeting, and they arrived at this topic as soon as possible, and they did not dare to slack off, and gathered in the conference room ten minutes in advance.
Before the start of the meeting, everyone exchanged opinions in conversation and laughter, and from time to time made a few jokes, deliberately exaggerating to test a thing or two, no need to scruple on this occasion, Wang Zichuan has not yet appeared, no matter what he says, he does not have to take responsibility.
First of all, Mecca's gloating voice sounded: "I said a long time ago, this alliance is impossible to succeed, how can people with evil intentions cooperate?" ”
All the cinemas in Hong Kong are in the alliance, Mecca is the least optimistic about the results of this alliance, such an important moment, he did not participate in it, when the scenery of the new art city was born, the impact of the word "Mecca" was no less than that of "Zou Wenhuai"!
Mecca stared at the bright bald head, with a cigar in her mouth, lit the cigar with a sneering face, took a few puffs, and said proudly: "Mr. Lei had a similar idea at the beginning, but unfortunately there was little response, and the two theaters of Golden Harvest and Shaw Brothers even blocked Princess Jin, and in the end this plan ended in nothing." ”
Zeng Zhiwei sneered: "Come on, who doesn't know that the Golden Princess Cinema was besieged by Jiahe and the Shaw Brothers at that time, this is an expedient measure that Lei Juekun came up with, and it is strange for others to agree!" ”
Chen Baixiang sighed and blamed himself: "Blame me for being careless, Ah Chuan asked me to pay attention to the trends of Yindu Cinemas, but I only thought about competing with Jiahe Cinemas for rights and interests, and finally it was like this." ”
Mecca smiled lightly: "It's not your fault, who in Hong Kong doesn't know the background of the Yindu institution, and it still operates at a loss every year, and Taiwan can't help this leftist position, they regret it, what can we do?" ”
Zeng Zhiwei followed and comforted: "It's good to withdraw from the silver capital, so as not to issue a blocking/killing order from Taiwan and harm the pond fish." Back then, the Kui brothers took the film to Shuangnan Cinema for release, and Taiwan was still blocked/killed, and Kuifu personally went out to settle the matter. ”
Mecca looked at Shi Nansheng and said, "I heard that Mr. Wang has prepared a large amount of money?" ”
"A total of 300 million Hong Kong dollars, the equipment of the Oriental Cinema Line is old, and the seats in several leading theaters are still the seats of more than ten years ago, and Mr. Wang has long wanted to replace them." Shi Nansheng simply explained the use of funds.
Wang Jin sighed: "Now the theater line is changing too fast, I remember when I was a child, the seat was still a bench, everyone sat on the stool, took a nap, and people turned over on their backs, and a movie came down." The buttocks are numb, and now individual theaters have begun to replace armchairs, let alone napping, and sleeping is no problem. ”
As the manager of the cinema chain, Chen Baixiang felt the most deeply in this regard, and echoed: "The change of the cinema chain is not just a chair, I estimate that there will be big changes in the future." ”
"What big change?" Zeng Zhiwei followed up and asked, looking interested.
Chen Baixiang said solemnly: "It's hard to say, anyway, the situation of the Oriental Cinema Line is not optimistic." I now kind of understand why Ah Chuan insisted on buying the land when he built the movie theater. ”
With Zeng Zhiwei's lesson, everyone didn't ask why.
Chen Baixiang said with a smile: "In the past two years, Hong Kong has risen the most in land, especially in Kowloon and Tsim Sha Tsui. The renovation of old buildings and idle land, any project can earn billions, or even tens of billions, and we have purchased a lot of land in Oriental Cinemas. Now it has risen fivefold, and some sections have risen more than ten times. ”
Mecca said enviously: "Isn't that a hair, how much can you earn?" ”
Shi Nansheng teased: "At the beginning, Mr. Wang wanted to buy the land. Many people in the company were opposed, and everyone advocated leasing the land or finding other companies to cooperate, but it was Mr. Wang who forcibly passed Guò, which led to the emergence of suburban cinemas all over Hong Kong. ”
Chen Baixiang is proud, this is the achievement of the Oriental Cinema Line, as the manager of the cinema line, there are also his merits, and when it comes to meritorious deeds, a considerable dividend is absolutely indispensable.
"At the beginning, I invested more than one billion, and the cost of buying land was about 400 million Hong Kong dollars, and a few days ago, I found someone to estimate the market value of these dozens of movie theater lands, about 3.3 billion Hong Kong dollars!"
"What thirty-three billion?" As soon as Wang Zichuan came in, he heard Chen Baixiang Lion open his mouth and asked with great interest.
Chen Baixiang said embarrassedly: "It's nothing, let's talk casually." ”
Mecca's jealous eyes were red, in just three years, he made a profit of more than 200 million Hong Kong dollars, and he worked in Xinyi City for six or seven years, and he only made a fraction of it.
"Ah Chuan, don't forget to call us if you have business in the future."
Zeng Zhiwei was also stunned by such an amazing benefit, and said slightly: "Ah Chuan, we have always supported you, you eat meat in front, you always have to leave a soup for us." ”
Wang Zichuan was confused, and after figuring out what had happened, he immediately smiled and said, "Okay, you take out all the money, invest it in real estate, and keep the money you earn." ”
"It's as simple as that?" Mecca and Zeng Zhiwei looked at each other, and then looked at Chen Baixiang, Wang Jin, and Shi Nansheng, there was no difference on the faces of these three people, so Wang Zichuan said to them more than a dozen times, and no one dared to follow Wang Zichuan's words, the economic crisis five years ago is still vivid, how many investors went bankrupt because of the word 'real estate', a mansion of tens of millions of dollars, the price of a mansion reduced tenfold in a blink of an eye, and those ordinary apartments are even more unbearable.
Wang Zichuan was surprised: "You don't believe it? ”
Zeng Zhiwei hesitated for a moment, and wondered: "Ah Chuan, can you be specific, you know my lesson, the mansion that invested eight million at the beginning, and sold it to you for four million in the end, held it in your hand for two years, didn't earn a single Hong Kong dollar, and lost half of it." ”
Mecca echoed: "Now that real estate is so hot, not everyone makes money, a while ago he had a party with Shi Tian, he complained that the real estate predators cleared the market regardless of their identity, and in less than half a month, he lost more than two million." ”
Wang Zichuan felt bored, could it be that the real estate would rise several times in a few years? When this sentence is said, it will appear in the headlines of major media the next day, some people are such a character, tell him the news, don't appreciate you when they make money, hate you when they lose money, and do everything possible to frame him, and I don't know how many people will settle accounts with him when the time comes.
"It's your freedom to do what you do, it's work time, and we'll meet as usual."
Mecca retracted his gaze and stopped talking, but Zeng Zhiwei was reluctant to give up, rolled his eyes, and said in a roundabout way: "Ah Chuan, I will tell you good news first." ”
"There's news from Taiwan?" Wang Zichuan raised his head and asked, and handed the text to Chen Hong and asked her to send it down.
Zeng Zhiwei said with a smile: "Yes, Lu Le agreed to Tengfei Entertainment to shoot a film, but he had to read the script first, by the way, he also said that the film should be released this year, it can be seen that Lu Le is interested." ”
Wang Zichuan nodded, he has only seen this movie once, probably the plot knows, just write an outline and let others supplement it, "The Legend of Inspector Lei Luo" is divided into two episodes, and it can earn 50 million Hong Kong dollars.
Zeng Zhiwei said intentionally or unintentionally: "I heard that Taiwan's economic development is good, and many people who invest in the stock market have made a lot of money. ”
Wang Jin said with a smile: "I invested in the Japanese stock market and made more than three million in a year!" Little Japan's money is so easy to make."
Due to the support of sustained strong economic growth and the appreciation of the yen, the Japanese stock market in early 1984 broke through 10,000 points, out of a dazzling bull market, in the memory of Ojikawa, a year later, the Nikkei Stock Average reached its all-time high of 38,915 points, almost all Japanese firmly believe that the stock price only rises, the land price only rises and does not fall Yamato myth, at the beginning of 1990, the "Japan Economic News" in the stock market forecast of 20 famous entrepreneurs, There is unanimous optimism that the stock index in 1990 will continue to rise to 42,000-48,000 points.
However, with the bursting of Japan's bubble economy, the Nikkei Stock Average plummeted to 28,002 points on April 2, 1990, embarking on a long bear journey that lasted for more than a decade, and a few years later, the Nikkei index fell to a minimum of 7,607.88 points.
Thinking of this, Wang Zichuan said kindly: "Ah Jin, be careful yourself, and leave the market when you make enough money." ”
Zeng Zhiwei deliberately probed: "When will you be able to make enough money?" The stock markets of Japan and Taiwan are very bullish, and I have wanted to invest my net worth several times. ”
Wang Zichuan was amused by Zeng Zhiwei's small methods, since he made a lot of money on the yen, as if he had become a stock god, there were not a few people who thought like Zeng Zhiwei.
Taiwan's stock market situation, Wang Zichuan knows a little, but the specific details do not understand, do long-term small investment OK, want to invest in the yen like the market, I am afraid that will be played to death by those capitalists, remember the past three years, Taiwan will have several stock market crashes, are the bookmaker's circle of money routine, when to fall, when to rise, the country said it does not count, the official and business giants plan through, even if the global stock market crash, they can also leave the market in advance.
Wang Jindao: "It's better to invest in the Japanese stock market to be safe!" ”
Chen Baixiang said with great interest: "I heard that Taiwan's stock market is very bullish, and we will study and study together when we have time." ”
Wang Zichuan covered his forehead, and if he continued, the meeting would become a stock market seminar, and the company's top management was like this, not to mention the low-level employees below, and immediately said sternly: "Now it's time for the meeting, don't discuss things that have nothing to do with the meeting." ”
After Chen Hong sent the information, he sat back in his place and quietly looked at Wang Zichuan with big eyes.
Wang Zichuan cleared his throat, raised his voice and said: "I think everyone knows that the cinema alliance has failed, and "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance" cannot be screened continuously, so immediately recover all copies of non-Oriental cinemas." ”
Chen Baixiang replied: "This matter has been completed, when Yindu Cinema Line and Xinbao Cinema Line withdrew from the alliance, I sent someone to take back the copy of "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance", and considering the piracy reason, I also signed an agreement with them to prohibit pirated copying.
