Recently, Xijun fell in love with room 306 of the Peninsula Hotel, and there was no way for young people to taste the forbidden fruit for the first time, and they couldn't stop. Girlfriend is even more open than Xijun, and the more you play, the more crazy you become!

In this way, he played debauchery with Guan Zhilin for half a month, and a phone call disrupted Xijun's plan.

When they came to the company, Zhang Cheng, the finance of the newspaper, and Shi Nansheng, the finance of the film and record company, rushed over. After a brief understanding, Xijun found that there was no money in the account! During this time, it cost 1.5 million Hong Kong dollars to acquire the record, and 500,000 Hong Kong dollars to invest in the radio station. Plus rent the whole building and buy music equipment and movie shooting equipment! Nearly 2 million Hong Kong dollars were spent. The replacement and addition of machinery in the printing department of the newspaper, and the external expansion of the newspaper cost more than 5 million Hong Kong dollars! Coupled with his own lavish expenses, more than 2 million Hong Kong dollars. A total of more than 12 million Hong Kong dollars were spent!

The results are also very encouraging, with two more companies. The newspaper has a branch in Taiwan and offices in more than 10 countries around the world. Fortunately, the newspaper earned more than 8 million Hong Kong dollars from advertising in three months, plus daily income and novel publishing income. Otherwise, Xijun can already declare bankruptcy! Xi Jun's novel "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" sold more than 300,000 copies in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, earning more than 2 million Hong Kong dollars, because the printing department was too small and there was no capital to continue to expand. It has been in a state of short supply. Now there are still more than 100,000 orders that have not been fulfilled! If you publish and print your own book, you can earn 8 Hong Kong dollars, and others can only earn 5 Hong Kong dollars for processing! In other words, if others help with printing, they will earn hundreds of thousands of Hong Kong dollars less!

Xijun decided to put on hold the color newspaper project and go all out to print the novel. Mainly the book publishers in Southeast Asia need to publish the novel "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" by contacting the newspaper! This market is huge!

Just half a month can be set aside to prepare for the work behind the scenes of the film, personnel selection, etc. However, the cost of film production is also a problem when it is turned on!

When I got home, I thought about it and put it in novels and the stock market to make quick money. In the last life, Hollywood novels adapted from movies swept the world, so that Xijun has read a lot of European and American novels. The most memorable is the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy and the four novels "Jurassic Park". Ronald. Riel. Tolkien's novel written in 1949. It's too early, and you can only give up.

The latter is a graduate of Harvard Medical School in the United States. Clayton is the author of a novel published in 1990. Xijun will not have any problems copying at this time. At this time, the original author had not yet conceived a novel! Copying more than ten years in advance, I don't know if it will be popular!

Regardless of the consequences, Xijun retreated for half a month and copied the first two parts. The main thing is that novels are short stories, just hundreds of thousands of words. Let the newspaper staff in the U.S. office go around with books and posts.

Unexpectedly, the response was good, and within a few days, several companies called to agree to publish. However, the share is very low, and only two companies are very interested. Send a commissioner to Hong Kong to negotiate with Xijun!

One is Bantan Books, which was founded in 1945 and has a complete distribution channel for books around the world! The other is Time Warner, one of the Hollywood movie giants. In 1923, it had its own book publishing house, which can be said to be very suitable for Xijun's requirements!

Both companies are willing to help with the distribution, but Time Warner wants the rights to the film adaptation of the novel! In the end, Xijun thought twice and signed a book distribution right with Time Warner, enjoying 12.5% of the profit share. The other party has the right of first refusal to buy the novel and film adaptation, and Xijun himself has the right of first refusal to invest. also agreed to help Xijun release a movie on Christmas in the United States, with no less than 1,000 screens. However, post-publicity, copying, film production costs, etc. are solved by themselves. Therefore, Xijun's later share is also very high, and he gets 50% of the later box office dividends.

After negotiating everything, Xijun found that time was really tight! It's now halfway through October, but there are two movies to start! The main thing is that the cost of the production of the second film has not yet fallen......

I had to come to HSBC to make a loan! With the guarantee of Xijun's current company, he borrowed more than 12 million Hong Kong dollars from the bank! Coincidentally, Xijun met Yuan Tianfan, one of the top ten working emperors in Hong Kong in later generations, and Yuan Tianfan was still an ordinary employee of the bond department of HSBC at this time. Xijun has the urge to dig people, but I don't know if the two people are the same person!

At this time, Yuan Tianfan just graduated and returned to China, and worked in the HSBC bond department, until he became the head of the department before he was poached by Li Ka-shing, the richest man in Hong Kong, with an annual salary of one million per year. However, for the time being, Xijun has no capital to invest in the stock market, but I remember reading a report in my father's study in my previous life, in 1971, after losing a large amount of gold reserves, the US government announced its withdrawal from the Bretton Woods system and announced the decoupling of the dollar from gold. Since then, the price of gold has completely detached itself from the government's pricing model, and is determined by market supply and demand, and gold has broken through the cage control of the Breton system and become gold priced by market supply and demand, and then soared.

In 1973, due to the sharp depreciation of the US dollar, there was another wave of European countries selling dollars and rushing to buy gold. Gold rose to $100 an ounce, three times the original official price.

It was not until 1978 that it surpassed its peak at US$200 an ounce and then to US$360 an ounce in the first half of 1979. Until the summer of 1979, due to the rapid deterioration of world inflation, the price of gold continued to break records in the second half of the year, reaching a peak of US$852 per ounce. Since the collapse of the Bretton Woods system, gold has risen from the official price of $35 per ounce to $852 per ounce, a full 24-fold increase!

In other words, Xijun is ready to get a start-up capital before January next year, catching up with the tail of the international gold stock market in 1979 and making a fortune. You can fill up the layout in the following time. To seize the Asian entertainment market, Hollywood is basically too xenophobic at this time. It is difficult for outsiders to break into Hollywood, even if the movies of Jackie Chan in Xijun's previous life rarely have a box office of more than 100 million in the United States! The business protection laws of the United States, plus various taxes, make it difficult to make money if you are not a U.S. citizen. Several Hollywood giants have dismantled their companies because of anti-monopoly laws. Evading antitrust laws by using a left-handed to-right-handed approach. There is also a personal tax rate of up to 39%.

In addition, at this time, the European and American entertainment markets have been carved up by Hollywood, and Xijun can only splash ink in the Asian market. In the heyday of Hong Kong films, few Hollywood movies could enter the top 10 at the box office! In addition, the Asian market is dominated by yellow people, and Hollywood films are a little unadaptable, until Taiwanese filmmakers boycott Hong Kong films and open up Hollywood films! At this point, the Asian film industry has also fallen!
