121, Happy Ghost released

In his last life, when Liu Jizu saw some, he always felt that the protagonist was very awesome, acquired XX Company, and then delisted it, 100% holding-

When I grew up, I realized that this kind of operation seemed a bit brainless, the world's top 500, basically no company is 100% controlled by individuals, cross-shareholding, interests linked, and many bigwigs are implicated in a move, this is the way to survive a company.

Someone touched my company, and a group of bigwigs came to help, because I only accounted for two or three percent of the shares, and the rest were theirs, don't help? The company is finished, and they lose even more money.

There is an old saying that everyone gathers firewood and the flame is high-

"Also, I hope that after HSBC becomes a shareholder, it will not interfere too much in the company's affairs, we have a set of our own practices, unless the company has been losing money, I hope that in any matter of the company, do not interfere in management." Liu Jizu put forward a condition.

Shen Zhou thought silently for a moment, and then nodded, "Yes, if the company doesn't lose money, HSBC can do it without meddling in any affairs, but HSBC will take a financial accounting to check the financial status every year."

Prevent misappropriation of funds, or embezzlement, etc.?

Liu Jizu smiled, "This is as it should be"

Shen Zhou smiled and said, "Then I wish us a happy cooperation, tomorrow I will arrange for someone to wait for the two of you at HSBC, and the two of you will prepare the materials, and we can sign the contract." ”

Any business, more than one million, must be detailed with a lot of treaties to avoid any pitfalls, especially this kind of business of 100 million, the contract is a few centimeters thick.

"By the way, Mr. Shen, I have something I want to ask you to help with?"

"Oh?" Shen Zhou said curiously, "Please speak." ”

Liu Jizu smiled, "I don't know if you have inquired, I have also set up a film company?" ”

Shen Zhou nodded, he already knew it when he asked people to check Liu Jizu's information, after all, HSBC is the head snake, as long as it is on the surface, there is nothing to hide from him.

"I've heard a little, I heard that it has just been established, and there is not a single movie yet?"

"I've already finished one, but it's not this that I want to discuss with you, it's the theaterβ€”"

Cinemas?

Shen Zhou frowned, "Mr. Liu, do you want to build another theater by yourself?" But as far as I know, the cinema chain is basically dominated by Golden Harvest and Wireless."

The rest are some leftists, or private underground cinemas, and those underground cinemas are all about the 18 prohibitions, and everyone understands it

Liu Jizu nodded, "That's right, I think Hong Kong Island movies are promising, and now they are becoming more and more prosperous year by year, so I decided to enter this industry, but Hong Kong Island movies are not like Hollywood, so this side needs to have its own theater chain, otherwise it will only be controlled by others everywhere." ”

Shen Zhou nodded, he also understood that on the Hollywood side, because of the passbook of the anti-monopoly law, film companies cannot operate theaters, you can secretly buy the stocks of theaters, but you can't control people openly, so in terms of film scheduling, it is fair on the surface.

But on Hong Kong Island.

Even if it's a good movie, the theater chain is in a hurry to release its own blockbuster, and it will cut you off, and there is nothing that the movie and the theater chain here can't operate at the same time.

When the movie is released, half of the box office profit of the theater chain will be shared, and some even 6 percent, and the rest of the box office is the income of the producer, and in the whole process, the advertising and publicity of the movie must be paid by the producer himself, and the movie theater does not help at all.

If it had been ten years ago, there would have been a charter fee

Therefore, in terms of earning power, it is still the theater chain that is protected by drought and flood, no matter how good or bad the movie is, it can always make money.

"Hehe, no problem, I originally planned to ask, what are your plans after getting financing, because the property market is too hot now, and many companies like to enter the real estate industry after getting financing, but the movie is also good, since Times Finance plans to enter the movie, then HSBC, as a shareholder, will naturally help as much as possible."

"Great, with Mr. Shen's help, I believe it won't be long before we can stand on our feet." Liu Jizu said happily.

"Mr. Shen, my plan is like this, some of the existing private cinemas, if there is land, they will be acquired together, and if they don't, they will be rented, and they will be opened in Yau Tsim Mong, Kowloon, Sham Shui Po, Wan Chai, and other areas with the most developed economy."

Of course, it is easy to rent by yourself, but it takes too long to build a cinema from scratch, decorate, and buy equipment, so the fastest way, of course, is to acquire.

Now many old-fashioned movie theaters on Hong Kong Island are connected to the land, and it is better to buy them directly, and then the remaining private movie theaters will directly join them and provide them with film sources to form a whole.

After the shelves are built first, the rest is simple, and then according to the situation, slowly rent to a suitable location in some of the most economically prosperous places, such as Causeway Bay and Mong Kok, and then renovate them into brand new cinemas and slowly expand.

At this time, the movie theater is basically a movie theater to play a movie, and Liu Jizu plans to rent a new theater behind him, which will be renovated into a theater chain that can play several movies at the same time in the future, maximizing resources.

And Liu Jizu plans to give in to those independent production companies, according to the early three seven accounts, seventy percent to those film companies, Golden Harvest and Wireless They only pay attention to their own films, and many of the excellent films that are ignored often come from these independent production companies.

Liu Jizu will let the theater line arrange the films according to the degree of hot sales, continue to keep the good ones for broadcasting, and remove the bad ones from the shelves, and compete fairly, even if the movies produced by his own family are the same.

Among them, the most difficult thing to deal with is the theaters that are in prosperous areas and owned together with the land, because most of the owners of these theaters are not short of money, and they rashly come to the door to buy, or they are bombed away by others, or they are directly slaughtered as fat sheep.

Therefore, it is best to let HSBC come forward to help acquire these movie theaters.

For example, Shaw Brothers has a theater that can accommodate 1,000 people, which Shao Liu bought in his early years, and even has land.

Many owners are waiting to be converted into houses and sold one day, so it is very difficult to buy theaters in these places.

After the end of this meeting, Shen Zhou, a foreigner, looked at the two people who went away with a smile, there are many business wizards on Hong Kong Island every year, and he is not a casual investment for everyone, mainly because he likes Liu Jizu.

When others took one step at a time and earned their first small goal of 100 million, they didn't know how many years it took, but Liu Jizu succeeded in less than a year after his debut.

The key is that in recent years, he has not seen anyone with more powerful means than him, even Li Zhaoji, and later Da Liu, this kind of person is not as fast as him.

"A hero is a boy~" Shen Zhou muttered to himself.

100 million Moreover, the most important thing HSBC lacks is money, and serious business, flowing water needs to go through the bank, once there is any trouble, Liu Jizu plans to run away with the money, it is impossible.

Because Shen Zhou is not stupid, one of the conditions for him to buy shares is that the financial flow of the times, and he will go to HSBC's bank in the future, so that he will be under HSBC's surveillance.

Liu Jizu also agreed, he used to take Citigroup, and now it is not a big deal to change to HSBC, who said that he does not have a bank at present.

It's easy to pull the egg if the step is too big, step by step-

"Brother Tao, do you want to buy a bank of our own in the future? Although we don't do anything illegal, all the turnover of our company is under the supervision of HSBC, and I always feel unhappy~" Out of the Peninsula Cafe, Liu Jizu asked Chen Taotao such a question.

"Of course, the Hong Kong government has stopped issuing bank licenses in recent years, and in the future, if others want to set up their own banks, they can only buy other people's banks, but at this stage we have just started, and it is too early to acquire a bank." Chen Taotao agrees with Liu Jizu's statement that there is no secret in this circle, if all the company's turnover is under the supervision of others.

Then others will judge your business trend through your flow, trade secrets, even if it is an established bank such as HSBC, there is no way to be 100% confidential, and it can be sure that the bank's executives will secretly disclose the customer's flow.

People don't leave evidence, and directly tell the inquirer in person, you can't prove it.

Of course, even your own bank may not be able to achieve complete secrecy, but at least it is better.

"By the way, don't want any of the Citibank's 'IOUs', there may be a financial crisis in the next few years, remember to touch a little more stuff in these years."

"Azu, how do you know that there will be a financial crisis?"

"Hehe, the secret of heaven must not be revealed"

Chen Taotao rolled his eyes, "Okay, I trust your vision."

The last time he went short, Liu Jizu asked him to prepare in advance, Chen Taotao understood that Liu Jizu had some means that could not be said, but what did it matter? Which institution on Wall Street is not exhausted when it comes to buying bottoms.

The more energetic the partner, the easier it is for him to run the company well, and the two tacitly understand that one is in the light and the other is in the dark, and the win-win cooperation is perfectly realized.

β€”β€”β€”β€”

Back at DreamWorks Films, I saw Huang Shusheng return to the company.

"Director Huang, why did you come back today, is the film finished?"

"Ah, Liu Sheng, you're here~" Huang Shusheng said with a smile, "Yes, it's just finished, and I have to attend the celebration banquet in the evening, by the way, about the release of the movie, I don't know where you plan to arrange it to be released?" ”

"Uh" Liu Jizu shrugged his shoulders and said honestly, "It hasn't been arranged yet, where do you think it's good to go?" ”

Huang Shusheng looked at Liu Jizu with a resentful face, this boss, he has gone too far, I'm just a director and, why do I have to worry about everything?

"Golden Harvest or Shaw Brothers, Golden Harvest, it's easier over there, by the way, boss, what are your plans for the promotion of the movie."

"Well, I'm not prepared either, do you have any suggestions?"
