Chapter 572: Assassin Storm (Part I)

After being silent for more than a month, Media Asia, which has not made any statement since the 'Huang Langwei incident' and the 'Cai Ziming shooting case', finally stood up.

ATV, which broadcast the entire press conference live on the Chinese channel, naturally took advantage of several conveniences, and obtained the full broadcast rights of the press conference by virtue of its special relationship with Lin Xiaozhi. However, although the live TV broadcast given by the Chinese channel in the morning attracted some popularity for ATV, because the press conference was during work hours, not many people could actually watch it in front of the TV.

Naturally, the reporters were aware of this, and after the press conference was over, many of the media who had been invited to the press conference hurried back. Although they can't catch up with today's morning paper, it doesn't mean that the major media in Hong Kong, especially the most convenient newspaper, will miss the news today, and give up the opportunity to sell these explosive news and information to others.

As a result, on this day, there was an unexpected scene in Hong Kong, that is, a number of media outlets printed evening newspapers one after another, and the evening newspaper market, which has always been inferior to the morning newspapers, had a hot scene that shattered people's eyes.

"The large-scale rescue has attracted praise from the industry, and the chairman of the Film Association, Lam Hau-chi, admitted that he is applying to the Hong Kong government to completely abolish the entertainment tax to protect the development of the local film industry!"

"The boss of Media Asia accuses Hong Kong films of having no law, no system and no funds, and comprehensively intervenes in guiding the Hong Kong film industry, wanting to take it on the right path!"

Mr. Gao Hongming, a gold medal lawyer, said with a smile that he was honored to accept the entrustment of Media Asia Group and the Hong Kong Film Association, and he personally wrote the film management bills of the United States and relevant European countries, and is drafting the Hong Kong Film Bill!"

"Strongly advocate the establishment of the 'Hong Kong Artists Union' and receive the support of many low-level artists, and hundreds of first-, second- and third-tier artists in Hong Kong have spoken out together to support the establishment of the 'Artist Union'!"

"Fired at Taiwanese cinema businessmen again, Lin Hsiao-chi, chairman of the Film Association, accused Taiwanese theater businessmen of viciously lowering prices and harming the interests of local film production companies, and announced that the Film Association will set up an investigation team to intervene in this matter!"

"500 million investment to promote the establishment of the 'Film Development Support Fund', because of the rejection of literary films, the industry has been criticized!"

"Media Asia intends to intervene in the electronics market, and the boss Lin Xiaozhi said wildly, 'developed an epoch-making electronic product'!"

……

Since the "Ming Pao" was forcibly acquired by Lin Xiaozhi, the reform that was originally gradually moving towards entertainment in the Pinhai era was also terminated by him, although it still retains many sectors such as entertainment, but Lin Xiaozhi undoubtedly hopes that "Ming Pao" can continue to maintain the influence of the old man Jin in the era of the Chinese above the middle class in Hong Kong and even overseas, so he has re-shaped it.

After this press conference, "Ming Pao", as the 'official' industry under his own name, naturally had to shout for him: "Silent for a month brewing reform, Lin Xiaozhi pointed out that the Hong Kong film industry has made big moves!" ”。

The deputy editor-in-chief personally wrote a comment: "...... Because of the unique background of the times, Hong Kong's unique 'prosperous' community culture has been created, and Hong Kong films, as a profiteering emerging industry, have been coveted by Hong Kong communities since its birth, constantly intervening and invading the Hong Kong film industry, trying to use it to launder money and bring huge profits to themselves! According to our investigation, in Hong Kong, in addition to a few giant film companies, a large number of small and medium-sized film companies, especially those bag companies and crews, are generally using funds from unknown sources to shoot films, which is also the reason why since two extremely bad murder cases were reported in the industry in July, the Hong Kong government's heavy blow to the black has unexpectedly affected the local film industry......

“…… The imperfection of laws and systems has made the Hong Kong film industry rely on a kind of credibility between people to maintain it since its birth. In recent years, the salary of Hong Kong films has risen again and again, and there are many first-line stars who get a salary of two or three million for a movie, and there are even several top superstars with a salary of more than 10 million in Hong Kong. According to a well-known person in the industry, in recent years, with the increase in salaries, the conflicts and contradictions between the artists directed and the film production companies, directors, and crews have also risen sharply. Because there is no clear legal and institutional protection, although vicious incidents such as the 'Cai Ziming shooting case' are rare in the industry, various conflicts arising from remuneration occur from time to time, especially the interests of low-level artists are even more ......damaged as a result."

"Cheng Pao" is the earliest newspaper acquired by Lin Xiaozhi, and it has been playing the role of the official throat for him for several years, so it is natural to speak out and fight for the commanding heights of public opinion for him.

“…… The establishment of the Film Association should be an important step in the formalization of the entire industry in Hong Kong, and the press conference held by the first chairman of the Film Association, Mr. Lam Hau-chi, just a day ago, should undoubtedly be an important milestone in the history of Hong Kong cinema. At this press conference, Mr. Lam Hau-chi elaborated and analyzed the various deficiencies and deficiencies of the Hong Kong film industry, and proposed the formulation of the 'Hong Kong Film Act', the establishment of an artist union, and the establishment of a 'Film Development Support Fund', so as to formulate laws and systems for the entire industry internally, prevent unfair competition externally, and actively guide the industry to explore foreign markets, so as to broaden the living space of the Hong Kong film industry. What is certain is that once Mr. Lin Xiaozhi's ideas are fully implemented, the Hong Kong film industry will usher in another golden decade! ”

"Tiantian Daily" was also unwilling, and also invited a famous pen to free up two pages in the entertainment section to give a comprehensive report. However, compared with ATV, the strength of the three newspaper groups under Lin Xiaozhi's name is still small.

ATV, one of the two major free-to-air television stations in Hong Kong, has invited Zeng Zhiwei, Xu Ke, Wu Yusen, Deng Guangrong, Li Xiuxian, Lau Dehua and other well-known directors, bosses and artists in the industry to launch a three-day 'celebrity talk about the industry' program in the evening prime time, and five well-known figures in the industry will be invited to talk about Lin Xiaozhi's discussion on the rectification of the Hong Kong film industry.

Although there are many voices accusing the 'Film Development Support Fund' announced by Lam Hsiao-chi of being too biased in its attitude towards 'literary films', some Hong Kong media close to Taiwan are worried that his pro-North attitude will further aggravate the conflict and contradiction between the Hong Kong film industry and Taiwan.

But for the Hong Kong film industry, which is in turmoil due to the impact of the Hong Kong anti-crime storm at this time, Media Asia and Lin Xiaozhi, a giant with a lot of money, finally expressed their desire to save the market, which has a positive effect on the entire industry!

On the second day after the press conference, the share price of Media Asia, which had weakened for more than a month, rose by more than 14% on the day, and then there was a daily evergreen increase of nearly 3% for nearly ten trading days. The associated Golden Harvest has also been affected, and it has also ushered in a continuous upward momentum for half a month.

Seeing that the market was favorable, Lei Qizheng, the new boss of Princess Jin, also seized the opportunity and immediately contacted the senior management of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange to negotiate listing. His Golden Princess Group had already completed the listing procedures, and it was originally scheduled to be ready to go public in June and July. However, two murder cases suddenly came out of the entertainment industry, and the Hong Kong film industry was caught up in the storm of fighting blacks, and even the excellent performance of Media Asia and Golden Harvest were tragically affected, and the stock price fell again and again.

Now, seeing that Lin Xiaozhi held a press conference to announce that the general environment had improved after several major bailouts, he was quite good at capital operation, and immediately launched the Lei family's network activities for many years, and finally caught up with 16 on the last day of August. The estimated market value of 4.2 billion Hong Kong dollars was announced, and investors were optimistic about the overall Hong Kong film industry. Subsequently, in the continuous rise that lasted for several trading days, the newly listed Golden Princess became the third large-scale film group company in Hong Kong with a market value of more than 3 billion Hong Kong dollars after Media Asia and Golden Harvest.
