777 [Hong Kong's new richest man]
The peachy scandal between Kang Jianfei and the actresses is getting more and more intense, and everyone is used to this kind of gossip news, but several photos of illegitimate children and illegitimate daughters exposed by "Next Magazine" still attract the attention of countless people.
In addition, several "Next Magazine" reporters have been abolished in a row, and many celebrities who have been hacked by this magazine have been pulled into the water, which has made gossip all over the sky, and Kang Jianfei's photos have been upgraded from the entertainment version to the front page headlines.
Among the carnivalesque reports of lace news in many newspapers, the high-profile South China Morning Post has taken a different path and spent a lot of energy investigating and reporting on Kang Jianfei's wealth:
A few days ago, an American newspaper estimated that Kang Jianfei's personal net worth was at least $3 billion. After a detailed investigation by this newspaper, this figure is obviously too conservative. ”
Kang's biggest asset is a stake in Paramount Pictures, which is worth $2.33 billion based on Paramount's share price at the end of April. During the global stock market crash in 1987, Kang Jianfei only spent $1.7 billion on these shares, and made a net profit of $530 million in more than three years. ”
Kang's second largest asset is the Oriental Culture & Entertainment Group, with its subsidiaries in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Macau and South Korea. The value of these companies is seriously underestimated by the Americans, TV stations, film and television companies, entertainment agents, studios, cinemas, animation, newspapers, magazines, publishing houses, record companies, constitute such a behemoth as Oriental Culture and Entertainment Group, and the development of Tseung Kwan O Film and Television City even involves real estate. ”
According to incomplete statistics, Oriental Culture and Entertainment Group is valued at least 10 billion Hong Kong dollars (1.2 billion US dollars), and Kang Jianfei holds more than 70% of the shares in each subsidiary. Among them, the construction of Tseung Kwan O Film and Television City is a classic investment case. With the completion of the second phase of the Tseung Kwan O New Town project, the bay reclamation project and the development of the town centre, the land around Tseung Kwan O has multiplied since the previous year. The land purchased by Kang Kim-fei in Tseung Kwan O. The total cost of the two times was 50 million, and now it has appreciated to nearly 1 billion Hong Kong dollars. ”
Kang Jianfei's other big move is to invest in Japan's Sega Games Company. With the hot sales of 16-bit home game consoles and the popularity of many games such as "The King of Fighters", Sega has firmly established itself as the world's second largest gaming giant, Sega's shares were listed as first-class on the Tokyo Stock Exchange in March last year, and Kang Jianfei's Sega shares are worth $480 million. That's just a few days after the bubble burst in Japan's stock market last October. In December of the previous year, Kang Jianfei's highest value of Sega shares was $790 million. ”
In addition, Kang Jianfei also has an Oriental film company in the United States. It is an independent film company that also operates a film distribution business, and at least three Hong Kong films are sold to the United States for screening by the company every year. Since Oriental Film Company is not listed, it is the same as Oriental Culture and Entertainment Group. We can only roughly estimate its corporate value. There are only five movies: "Home Alone 1", "Terminator 1 and 2", "Out of Africa", and "Rain Man". Its global box office has exceeded $1 billion, which is also one of the sources of funding for Kang Jianfei's acquisition of 37% of Paramount's shares. Oriental Pictures is worth at least $200 million, and the rights related to the "Terminator" series of movies have made Hollywood giants covetous. ”
Kang Jianfei also has a computer special effects company called Digital Field. The company has a strong special effects team, and is the second largest film special effects company in Hollywood after Industrial Light & Magic, and its specific value cannot be estimated. ”
"As we all know, Kang Jianfei has a good relationship with Chinese mainland, and he also has a lot of investment in the mainland. Including the film and television, record, cinema, department store, food and tourism industries, the value of these industries is also incalculable. ”
"Synthesize the above statistics. Kang Jianfei's personal wealth should be around US$3.8 billion (not counting his mainland assets, digital special effects companies and hidden wealth), and he is the richest man in Hong Kong, far exceeding Li Jiacheng, who has a net worth of US$2.8 billion. ”
Originally, the peachy news about Kang Jianfei was hyped, and his mansion pickling up girls was also exposed, and the villas worth tens of millions of dollars under the names of Guan Zhilin, Zhao Yazhi, Zhong Chuhong and others made many women envious.
Because there are too many female stars involved, there are countless fans of these actresses, and many people have heard that the goddess in their minds has become someone else's mistress, and she has given birth to illegitimate children, and they have all joined the team to crusade against Kang Jianfei.
Of course, it's just verbal scolding, I don't know how many men envy Kang Jianfei's Yanfu, and I don't know how many women fantasize about being wrapped up by Kang Jianfei. Raising - Kang Jianfei's method of picking up girls is too bold, and he directly sends a house and a car.
At this moment, the news of the "South China Morning Post" came out, and it actually said that Kang Jianfei's personal wealth surpassed Li Jiacheng, and he became the richest man in Hong Kong with a net worth of 3.8 billion US dollars.
This is a society that laughs at poverty and does not laugh at prostitutes, if an ordinary businessman has many female stars and has illegitimate children, he will most likely be scolded for being irresponsible. But if the object is changed to the richest man in Hong Kong, okay, that's someone else's ability, if you don't accept it, you can also try it?
The South China Morning Post was read by elite English-speaking people, and it was not until its articles were reprinted in popular newspapers that it attracted a burst of amazement from Hong Kong citizens.
In fact, the South China Morning Post compared Kang Jianfei to Li Jiacheng's wealth, and in order to create news explosion, it deliberately ignored the latter's family wealth and the huge resources in his hands.
Although Li Jiacheng's personal assets are less than 3 billion US dollars, the Hutchison Whampoa and Cheung Kong industries he controls are both large groups with a market value of nearly 100 billion Hong Kong dollars, and they are both operating Minsheng Industries, and the funds and political resources that can be mobilized are enough to crush Kang Jianfei, and Li Jiacheng's two sons are also billionaires, and his confidante Zhou Moumou has a net worth of hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars.
But ordinary citizens don't know this, they only know that Kang Jianfei's personal wealth exceeds that of Li Chaoren, and the new richest man in Hong Kong was born.
Compared with Li Jiacheng's decades of operation, Kang Jianfei has only been in Hong Kong for 12 years, and this wealth myth is more sought after by the general public.
"The rise of a new generation of entertainment tycoons, the throne of Hong Kong's richest man has been replaced."
"Twelve years of investment is invincible, and the myth of Kang Jianfei's wealth is discussed."
"Wong Tai Sin analyzes Kang Jianfei's fate: multiple sons and multiple wives are destined to commit peach blossoms."
"Li Jiaxin was fascinated by Kang Jianfei's charm and was willing to be the woman behind it."
“……”
It seems that overnight, the wind of public opinion has changed, and the media is talking about Kang Jianfei's fortune process, and his entangled scandals with many actresses have also become romantic events that highlight his masculine charm.
As for the illegitimate child and illegitimate daughter incident, it is not worth mentioning. The reasons have all helped Kang Jianfei think about it: he is the richest man in Hong Kong, and he will not have a few more children, who will inherit the family property in the future?
Originally, Kang Jianfei was still ashamed, feeling that this illegitimate child incident and the fermentation of the scandal would damage the image and reputation of Zhong Chuhong, Guan Zhilin and others. But because of the follow-up impact of the wealth article in the "South China Morning Post", Kang Jianfei's women actually put a halo on them, although many people still say that they are greedy for wealth, but the lover of the richest man has a special charm.
The most concerned is He Chaoqiong, the gambling king's daughter is Kang Jianfei's legal wife, and the queen of the main palace of the new richest man in Hong Kong. The son Kang Yuxin born to the two has also become the target of 24-hour tracking by reporters, so that the children can't even go to kindergarten, so they can only ask a tutor to study at home.
He Gambling King originally wanted to marry his daughter to Kang Jianfei, mainly because he valued Kang Jianfei's development potential and business talent, and secondly, Kang Jianfei had a close relationship with the mainland. The Macau Satellite TV cooperated by the two has developed rapidly, and now has an annual advertising revenue of 80 million US dollars, and the company's valuation has exceeded 400 million US dollars, which greatly exceeds the original expectations of He Gambling King.
(Don't think it's too outrageous, Superman sold 63% of the shares of Satellite TV Chinese in 93 and sold more than $500 million.) Kang Jianfei preemptively built Macau Satellite TV into a satellite TV Chinese channel a few years in advance, almost dominating the satellite TV market in Hong Kong, Taiwan and Southeast Asia, and making much more money than the old Phoenix TV and TVB. It's just that the scale of today's advertising market is not so large, and after two years of rapid economic development of the Asian Four Little Tigers, the revenue of Macau Satellite TV is likely to double. )
How much does the casino of He Gambling King make every year?
Macau Satellite TV's annual advertising revenue of nearly 100 million US dollars has made He Gambling King's impression of Kang Jianfei extremely good, so that Kang Jianfei's behavior of not holding a wedding in public was ignored by He Gambling Wang's generosity.
Now that Kang Jianfei has been promoted to the richest man in Hong Kong, He Gambling Wang feels that there is light on his face, which shows that he has a good vision for the elderly, and he recognized that this young man has made great achievements a few years ago, so he will marry his baby daughter.
"Husband, Dad's side has a banquet next week, do you want to go or not?" He Chaoqiong asked as she flipped through her son's homework.
"I'm going to France in a few days." Kang Jianfei's eyes didn't leave the dinosaur concept map in his hand, this is him and James? The dinosaur image drawn by Cameron's collaboration.
"Would you like to take half a day off?" He Chaoqiong sat over and rubbed his shoulders and said coquettishly. Although after working in the company, He Chaoqiong is evolving in the direction of a strong woman, but she is still a housewife at home, and she is also very feminine when she is with Kang Jianfei.
Kang Jianfei hasn't been to the old man's side much, and he rarely visits even the Christmas and Spring Festival, Kang Jianfei thought about it and agreed: "Okay, I'll go two days later in France." ”
He Chaoqiong became happy at this time, and leaned on Kang Jianfei's shoulder and kissed him as a reward.
Kang Jianfei's side is very good, but Li Zhiying, the boss of Next Magazine, is furious.
"What? Two more journalists resigned today! Li Zhiying glared at his female secretary with angry eyes.
The secretary was so frightened that he couldn't speak: "Yes...... Yes. ”
Lai Zhiying scolded: "A group of unfed white sheep wolves, which newspaper in Hong Kong has a higher salary than me?" If you take a good photo, the bonus I give them is enough to work for several years, and now they are actually clamoring to quit one by one! ”
The reason why the reporters are clamoring for resignation is very simple: eight of the reporters of Next Magazine have their hands removed in a week, and the rest of the reporters are trembling when they go out. (To be continued......)
