Chapter 485: A Flower Falls, a Flower Blooms [Repair]
"I finally believe it now."
"Believe what?"
"You're the ugliest in the family!"
"(╯‵□′)╯(┴─┴~Roll!)
"Okay!"
……
The above is the conversation between Gao Fei and Liu Yifei after he went to the opposite side.
Of course, although Gao Fei's words are mostly jokes, it is also true that their family is good-looking.
Needless to say, Aunt Liu is not going to be able to withstand it if she is a few years younger.
Although his appearance has declined a little, his temperament is still overwhelming.
And even though her grandmother is over eighty years old and beautiful in her twilight, she is still elegant and magnificent.
After all, although the skin phase is no longer there, the bone phase is still the same!
As for Aunt Liu Yifei, although she didn't see her this time, her aunt came.
After meeting, it was not surprising, and her appearance was not inferior to Liu Xiaoli.
By the way, during the chat, Gao Feifang learned that her aunt was also a movie star in the 80s.
When he was young, he also starred in the movie "The Love of the Ginkgo Tree", which is considered the old-timer of Gao Fei and Liu Yifei.
So when everyone sat down and chatted, they had a common language.
It's just that even so, Goofy didn't stay long.
No way, who made this family look at him too weirdly.
So after a courtesy visit, Goofy turned around and took his leave.
Seeing this situation, the Liu family did not force them to stay.
After all, the two families are now opposite each other, and there is no point in staying, and if you really have something to do, you will have to raise your feet.
So this New Year, Gao Fei was so anxious to stay in the company and work overtime every day, and a group of employees in the headquarters were terrified.
As for Liu Yifei, she is very relaxed.
After talking about the matter, her family also supported her to experience life more, and finally asked her to pay more attention when she was in the hospital so as not to get hurt.
So compared to Gao Fei, Liu Yifei didn't have too much of a fulfilling winter this winter.
While I was busy experiencing the characters and writing observation notes, I also had to familiarize myself with the production work.
Because of this, she called Zhao Liying a lot.
As for the reason, I naturally asked her what she did when she was preparing for "July and Ansheng".
Not to mention, the experience of a novice like Zhao Liying is more meaningful to Liu Yifei than the experience of ordinary mature producers.
So after coming and going, Liu Yifei and Zhao Liying got closer and closer.
And just when Gao Fei was bored waiting for the New Year, a sudden news made his mood a little heavy.
……
In January 2014, a few days before the Spring Festival Gala of the Year of the Horse.
Big Dog, the founder of Pony Galloping, died suddenly in the office.
After all, he still didn't see the Spring Festival Gala of the natal year when the pony was galloping!
The two days before his death were the day when he signed a "VAM agreement" with CCB Culture expired.
When he learned the news, Goofy was silent for a long time.
Although it was rumored in the circle that he died suddenly because of the excessive pressure that he needed to pay too much money after failing to gamble, Gao Fei did not agree with it.
As far as he knows, although Xiaoma is still working hard for the listing in the second half of the year, Big Dog is actually preparing for the failure of the bet.
If it weren't for that, he wouldn't have resold "Digital Domain" to Zhou Yi.
Therefore, compared to mental pressure, Goofy prefers to believe that Big Dog's sudden death was caused by overfatigue.
You must know that since Wu Yusen's long-backlogged "new film" "Taiping Wheel" was officially launched, the filming has not been smooth, and from time to time there have been news such as poor capital turnover and additional investment.
In this way, on this film, Pressing Bao regards "Taiping Wheel" as the key to turning defeat into victory, and naturally he will not look at this project yellow.
So during this time, in addition to being busy cleaning up the mess of failed gambling, Big Dog Brother was still worrying about all kinds of matters in "Taiping Wheel", working day and night every day, and I couldn't wait for one person to be used for two people.
In this way, the collapse of the body is actually not a small probability event!
However, excessive fatigue may be the main cause of the sudden death of the big dog.
But it's also true that he was unlucky.
After all, with the strength of the pony galloping, there is actually a great probability of successful listing under normal circumstances.
At least no matter how weak the pony is, its strength is always stronger than that of CTI Film and Television.
However, even China Test Film and Television can be listed, and Pony is naturally very likely.
But the big dog brother was still too impatient after all, and signed the gambling agreement in order to go public as soon as possible.
So in the end, under the influence of off-the-field factors, all efforts were in vain.
"What about ambitions? All efforts are not in vain in the end! ”
"Alas~ I don't know if the big dog brother will regret it if he has a spirit in the sky!"
In the study, Gao Fei couldn't help but sigh after being silent for a long time.
Hearing this, Han Li didn't have much emotion.
On the contrary, she thought about it seriously for a while, and then shook her head slightly and said:
"I don't think the big dog brother will regret it!"
"And his efforts were not in vain, although the bet failed, but the pony was indeed made big by him."
"I remember that two months ago, Huayi had the intention to bid 5.4 billion to buy Pony Galloping."
"This is three years ago, Pony didn't have such a high valuation."
Seeing her say this, Gao Fei first bowed slightly.
But then, he shook his head helplessly.
"It was before, and now it is now."
"Brother Big Dog, the valuation of the pony will definitely not be as high as before."
"Forget it, let's not talk about this, let's take care of ourselves first."
Han Li was silent when she heard this.
Indeed, as soon as Big Dog died, Chinese Culture launched a takeover offer to Pony the next day.
The most ironic thing is that the valuation they gave was also 3.6 billion.
It happened to be the valuation of the pony when the big dog brother signed the VAM agreement three years ago.
In other words, in their eyes, the efforts of the big dog brother in the past three years have not had the slightest effect.
Thinking of this, Han Li once again realized the cruelty of capital.
For a while, she couldn't help but feel a little happy in her heart.
Fortunately, Zhou Yi Film and Television has Gao Fei, otherwise their fate today may not be comparable to that of a pony.
……
……
A flower falls, a flower blooms.
Perhaps there must be some mysterious law in the dark.
Not long after Gao Fei received the obituary of Brother Big Dog's death, good news came from Jiang Hong's side.
Starting from the middle of the year, six months of history, Digital Domain finally successfully listed on the backdoor of Hong Kong stocks.
It is said that after the acquisition of Digital Domain, Goofy immediately determined the strategy of training, special effects, and games, and the three major business segments in parallel.
After six months of hard work by Jiang Hong, the architecture of Digital Domain has been largely completed.
First of all, the business of film and television special effects, naturally needless to say.
With Digital Domain's original technical strength and Zhou Yi's resources, there is no need for Gao Fei to worry about this piece for the time being.
In the special effects training business, it relies on the characteristics of being willing to spend money and spending money ruthlessly.
Jiang Hong, who was digging people everywhere, quickly set up a rough training structure for Digital Domain.
Although the scale is not very large at present, a complete special effects training system has been formed.
Even now, the trial operation has begun, and the first batch of trainees have already started classes.
However, the special effects training business is in a hurry, and there is no way to speed it up, so Jiang Hong did not put too much pressure on the training department.
In terms of the game business that Gao Fei attaches the most importance to, Jiang Honghua has the most energy.
For this reason, she has been in Chengdu for almost half a month, and she has to interview dozens of people a day when she is busiest.
As for why I came to Chengdu, it is mainly because there are a large number of game talents gathered here.
In addition, the game production companies in Chengdu are almost the first to be born in the industry, and they have almost completely experienced the entire era of terminal games and web games.
In addition, the local government began to develop the game industry very early, from talent training to policy support, so in addition to local game companies, it has also attracted many companies from other provinces to settle in.
Let's just say that there are more than 1,000 game companies in Chengdu at the moment.
Therefore, the good industry atmosphere leads to Jiang Hong's complete confidence in selecting and poaching people.
After all, backed by Gao Fei, a billionaire, she is far from being comparable to those small studios and start-up game companies in terms of funding.
So soon Jiang Hong found the professional talent she wanted and set up three mobile game studios.
Among them, [Gemini Studio] is responsible for the production of the "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" project.
[Six-and-a-half Studio] is responsible for the development of the project "Mysterious Recovery".
[Konjac Studio] is responsible for the production of the mobile game "Embroidered Spring Knife".
Of course, this is only preliminary planning.
As for whether they need to be adjusted in the future, it depends on how well they run.
However, unlike many start-up game companies, Digital Domain has also begun to dabble in the game investment and publishing business while intervening in the game production business.
After all, compared with other game companies, Jiang Hong at least has the publicity and distribution team of Zhou Yi Film and Television to assist.
And the release and promotion of the game, in fact, can be summed up in three words:
Buy, wash and drain.
Although it is different from the film and television promotion game in the details, the logic is almost the same in essence.
And compared with film and television publicity, the purchase and drainage of games are actually more naked.
There are many popular games in the early stage, in fact, they rely on spending money to buy volume.
In this regard, it is a little more direct than the movie announcement.
……
By the way, to be precise, in fact, Digital Domain should currently have four game production teams.
It's just that the last production team called "Lilith Games" is in a special situation.
Although this game company was only established in June, the strength of the company is really good.
The three founders are not only NTU alumni, but also came out of the Northern Lights Studio of Penguin Games.
It can be said that the overall strength is relatively mature and does not require too much run-in time.
So after learning about the situation from the headhunter, Jiang Hong immediately took a fancy to it.
But Wang Xinwen, the founder and CEO of this small company, is a stubborn temper.
Because he has been in Penguin for four years, he doesn't talk about fishing at work, but also quietly pulls colleagues to do his own little games part-time, and he doesn't get along well with his superiors.
Therefore, in 2013, he was given a "C" in the internal performance appraisal, which means that he is about to face the risk of being "persuaded to retire".
So he simply took the bonus and left with two other colleagues on his own initiative, which led to the birth of "Lilith".
It is only because of this experience of being "optimized" by penguins that although these three founders are all from penguins, they are all very rebellious and determined to never play games like penguins.
Therefore, when Jiang Hong put forward the acquisition request, the three young people who were still a little idealistic refused in one go.
If it were an ordinary person who encountered this situation, he would give up if he couldn't say it.
But Jiang Hong has been with Gao Fei for a long time, and his thoughts have been somewhat affected.
Therefore, she learned from the relationship between Zhou Yi Film and Television and Zhengwu Sunshine, and chose the mode of holding and delegating power.
To put it simply, it is for Digital Domain to acquire a 51% stake in Lilith Games and take a controlling stake.
However, it is possible to promise not to interfere with the day-to-day operations of the company, as well as the creation of the game.
In short, let Lilith Games exist as a satellite company of Digital Domain.
In this way, they not only retain a certain degree of independence, but also enjoy the support of resources and channels.
This is also what Goofy has been saying, "Only by maintaining competition can we maintain vitality; It is necessary to decentralize, otherwise it will suppress innovation".
Because compared with the large and comprehensive giant company model, Gao Fei feels that this satellite orbiting model is more dynamic.
Moreover, this satellite company model is undoubtedly more attractive than the general high-salary poaching people.
This time is no exception!
Faced with Jiang Hong's new conditions, Wang Xinwen and the other two founders finally decided to accept it.
After all, not only will they be able to get a sum of money to improve their lives first, but they will also have more money to spend on developing the game.
So, why not!
However, it is precisely because of this cooperation model that Jiang Hong has arranged IP production tasks for him.
Instead, they were left to make the card game called Dota Legends.
……
But then again, whether it's a training business or a gaming business, it takes quite a while to see results.
So Goofy doesn't expect much from Digital Domain's share price.
In the study, Jiang Hong handed the relevant documents to Gao Fei and reported:
"It cost a total of 106 million Hong Kong dollars to buy [shell] this time."
"Because we are a backdoor listing, there are still 26.33% of the outstanding shares in the market."
"At present, the Hong Kong Stock Exchange has approved our application for resumption of trading, and it is expected to open on time at half past nine tomorrow morning."
Hearing this, Gao Fei immediately bowed slightly.
It's a bit of a pity for the remaining outstanding shares, but that's the rule.
If the public float is less than 25%, then even if Digital Domain successfully goes public this time, it will face the risk of delisting later.
After all, the existence of the stock market was originally for the purpose of "risk sharing and benefit sharing" from the beginning.
So after Gao Fei was a little bit of a pity, he didn't bother anymore.
However, the listing of Digital Domain this time is not as beautiful as Zhou Yi Film and Television at the beginning.
As for the bell-ringing ceremony or something, don't even think about it.
So early the next morning, Gao Fei and his entourage came to the conference room of Zhouyi Building early, quietly waiting for the final result.
Soon, after the opening of the market at 9:30 a.m.
On the first day of the resumption of trading, the opening price was HK$1.72, an increase of 14.67%.
When the news came, everyone in the conference room couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
It's just that Jiang Hong heard this, but she didn't like it and frowned.
Seeing this, Gao Fei immediately understood what she was worried about, so he smiled and comforted:
"Don't worry, it's just okay if it doesn't fall sharply."
"As for the slower rise, it is normal, after all, there are always big fish to eat meat in Hong Kong stocks, and shareholders have soup to drink."
Of course, in terms of actual value, Digital Domain's stock price after the resumption of trading is indeed seriously undervalued.
After all, before Gao Fei bought the shell, the total market value of [original] Century Sage Scientific was only 140 million Hong Kong dollars.
Now that Gao Fei has stuffed the digital kingdom acquired by 400 million yuan into this shell, then the fool knows that the stock price will definitely rise.
Now the stock price fluctuations are not in line with expectations, but it shows that some people in the Hong Kong stock market are optimistic, and now it can only be regarded as calm before the storm at best.
Then things turned out to be as high as Goofy had expected.
After a brief lull, Digital Domain's stock price began to soar rapidly.
Although there were several declines in the middle, the stock price was finally pulled down by HK$13.8 per share.
This time, even Goofy couldn't stop laughing.
After all, with the current stock price, Digital Domain's total market capitalization is already 1.887 billion Hong Kong dollars.
This shows that the capital market is still very optimistic about the prospects of Digital Domain.
At least the digital kingdom backed by Zhou Yi Film and Television is far more valuable in the eyes of capital than in the hands of ponies.
It's a bit hurtful, but it's true.
Of course, Digital Domain can rise so sharply after the resumption of trading, but fortunately, there is no limit to the rise and fall of Hong Kong stocks.
Otherwise, even if Digital Domain's share price is grossly undervalued, it will take some time to get to this point.
"Okay, don't leave later, I'll go to my house for dinner later."
Overjoyed, Gao Fei immediately pulled Zhou Yi and a group of executives from Digital Domain towards Houhai No. 9 Courtyard.
Seeing this situation, it caught a group of executives off guard.
Especially those who had never seen Gao's father and mother, they immediately hurriedly called the secretary and asked them to quickly buy a souvenir and send it over.
Only Han Li laughed on the side and ridiculed Gao Fei for being richer and richer he was.
Obviously, this wave has made more than a billion yuan, but he only fools them with home-cooked food.
As soon as these words came out, the conference room burst into laughter.
Of course, if you really let these executives choose, they probably want to eat home-cooked food.
That is, Han Li's qualifications are old, so he can fly high and make such a joke.
If it were them, even if they could say it, they might not dare to say it.
Among the crowds, only Jiang Hong was the only one who smiled silently on the side.
Because Goofy has already given her the position of CEO of Digital Domain.
At present, in addition to Gao Fei, Zhou Yi's position is the most important.
You must know that she is the first Zhou Yi to be in charge of a listed company alone.
At this point, even Han Li can't compare.
Of course, the reason why Gao Fei handed over the digital domain to Jiang Hong was because she was the only one who was the most suitable.
After all, whether it was the acquisition of Digital Domain, or the expansion of training and game businesses, or even the backdoor listing of the Hong Kong stock market later, Jiang Hong participated in the whole process.
So there really isn't anyone more suitable than her other than Goofy.
Han Li also knows this point.
So in a burst of laughter, the two strong women inadvertently glanced at each other, and then turned their heads to talk and laugh casually.
It's just that judging from the past behavior of these two people, even if the two of them are not in the same company, a new round of involution is inevitable after all.
I have to say that women's comparison is really terrible......
