Chapter 449: The Future of the Film Festival
Although the New Taipei District, where the Industrial City is located, is a new district that has just been planned for a few years. But for the people of Xiangjiang who have been to the New Taipei District before, they can feel that this new district seems to be undergoing great changes every moment.
The commercial street planned earlier has now been built and renovated in the third phase. If you talk about the shops in the first phase, many merchants still have doubts. Then the shops in the third phase were robbed by a group of merchants when they began to pre-lease.
In other words, the merchants who enter the first phase of the shop will have a half-year rent-free period. Now the third phase of the leased shops only has a one-month renovation period. Even so, there is still a steady stream of merchants who want to rent shops.
The reason for this situation is also the speed of development of the New Taipei District, which is really beyond the imagination of many people. If you want to choose the fastest developing district in Xiangjiang today, I am afraid that the New Taipei District deserves it.
The most enviable thing for all forces in Xiangjiang is that the New Taipei District has almost become the self-reserved land of the Mythical Group. Other companies can come here to buy land and build factories, but if they want to buy land and build houses, it is tantamount to declaring war with the Mythical Group.
Some people may feel that the mythical group is too domineering. The problem is that the prosperity and liveliness of the New Taipei District today is due to the continuous investment of Shinhwa Group and the entry of a large number of enterprises and employees.
The staff apartments planned by the Shinhwa Group alone, which can accommodate tens of thousands of employees, have been put on sale in two communities. The third community is under intense construction and will be available for sale next year.
The real commercial real estate is currently only built by the Myth Group. The housing prices of commercial real estate are naturally much cheaper than those in urban areas. But the difference is that if you want to buy a commercial real estate house, you also need to provide corresponding certificates.
First of all, the aborigines of New North Quarter, who have the right of first refusal to buy a house. However, each family is limited to one set. Secondly, there are merchants who lease shops in the New Taipei District, as well as other practitioners.
If you are an outsider, you simply want to buy a cheap house and sell it for profit, even if you have money, you can't buy a commercial house. In the face of all kinds of restrictions on buying houses formulated by Xu Zhengdao, many people are a little puzzled.
But Xu Zhengdao said very directly: "The commercial real estate built by the Mythical Group is built for the purpose of living and working in peace and contentment. To put it simply, I hope that the commercial properties built by the group are all for living rather than speculation. ”
The deeper reason is that they do not want to impact the commercial real estate built by other groups. If the price to be sold is too low, how can the high-priced commercial properties built by other companies be sold at that time?
Again, Xu Zhengdao does not mix with commercial real estate in those prosperous areas of the city. Even though he owns a property company and has acquired a number of shops and residences, he has never participated in the bidding for commercial land.
If he follows the rules, then other real estate companies that want to intervene in the New Taipei District should know what to do. If you really want to compete with the mythical group with huge cash flow, then the final result, I'm afraid that the company will feel uncomfortable.
Although there are still nearly ten days before New Year's Day, because it is the first Panda Film Festival, Shinhwa Group and the organizers have also invited many Asian film companies, film companies or filmmakers to participate in and attend this film festival.
As the CEO of Mythical Group and in charge of the film and television company, Yuan Dayan and Zhou Yi were very busy during this time. Meet with film companies and studios from various countries to discuss business cooperation in the field of film.
Even the Golden Prince Cinema Line, which is an opponent, and the Xiangjiang Cinema Line, were also invited by the Mythical Group. Zou Jiahe, who is the elder of Xiangjiang Film and Television, saw the invitation sent and said with emotion: "This young man, the general trend has become a success!" ”
In other words, if he has Xu Zhengdao's wealth and status, I am afraid it will be difficult to be as generous as Xu Zhengdao. Although the three theater chains have private competition, no matter how loud or even united the two theater chains, Xu Zhengdao is calm.
In Xu Zhengdao's words, that is to make a good movie. As long as the movie is good-looking, there will naturally be fans cheering on it, and there will naturally be film companies who will take the initiative to come to the door. As long as the two theaters abide by the rules, then he will not do anything that breaks the rules.
In order to hold this film festival well, Xu Zhengdao specially arranged a construction team to build a number of theaters open to audiences and film critics in the multi-purpose stadium. Films selected for the festival will be shown in the cinema hall.
Movie ticket prices, naturally, are cheaper than usual movies. But the audience who watched the movie, after the movie, also gave a score to the movie. In this way, it is decided that the number of screenings for which movie can be increased and the number of screenings for which movie should be reduced.
The movies that the audience likes to watch will naturally become the popular films selected by this film festival. And the 100-member jury has not been announced until now. The reason for this is that you have to wait until the organizer finally sends out an invitation.
Therefore, the filmmakers and media representatives invited this time may become one of the judges. The question is, with so many filmmakers and media reporters from all over the world, who will be the final judge?
There are forty audience judges left, and they are selected at random. These judges will be selected from those who have scored the film and watched it. Whoever wants to buy so many judges must also know who can become a judge in the end!
Knowing this judging mechanism, the filmmakers and media from Baodao also said with solemn expressions: "This film festival is successful, so it is very likely that the Golden Island Award we hold will lose its competitiveness!" ”
"Yes! Although we are also targeting film companies from all over Asia, in fact, only Hong Kong and Treasure Island film companies are participating in the competition. And the Panda Film Festival, even the films of Goryeo and the Wa Kingdom have joined it. ”
"The most terrible thing is that they also included mainland films in the selection. Do you want to protest about this? ”
"Protest? In the current situation, do you find the protests useful? On the government's side, it's too late to win over the mythical group! ”
Although there are still many restrictions and taboos on the treasure island and the mainland. But for Xiangjiang's attitude, it is difficult for Baodao to be strong. The mythical group is already a well-known group in Asia.
For such a group, which is very likely to become a world-renowned enterprise in the future, how dare Baodao, which also needs external investment, be easily blocked? Besides, the Mythical Group is not just rich!
Compared with the filmmakers on the treasure island, who are worried about Zhongzhong, the mainland filmmakers who were invited to come are very happy. For them, with such a trading platform, many of their films could be sold.
It's just that, because they have never experienced this before, many people came to the first Panda Film Festival this year with an attitude of learning and investigation. I'm afraid there won't be too many movies that can really be on the trade fair.
The Panda Film Festival, both in terms of scale and influence, has outperformed the completely declining Golden Fragrance Award selection. From now on, when others mention the film festival in Hong Kong, the Golden Fragrance Award will also become a historical award.
The main reason for this consequence is that the Golden Fragrance Award does not pay attention to the rules, and Xu Zhengdao directly overturned the other party's stall. If the organizers of the Golden Incense Award knew that there would be such consequences, I am afraid that they would not dare to reach out and take the money indiscriminately!
