Chapter 352: TVB boss Chen Qiming
On the afternoon of January 3rd.
Just as Chen Qiming was about to leave Singapore and fly back to Hong Kong, Huang Tianyuan called.
He and two other theater owners agreed to cooperate with the Pacific Cinema Line, and the theaters under the Pacific Cinema Line will be affiliated with the Pacific Cinema Line.
It was definitely a pleasant surprise.
The addition of 17 theaters by Huang Tianyuan and the three of them has brought the scale of Pacific Cinema Line in Singapore and Malaysia to 27, plus the Hong Kong and Macao cinemas owned by Pacific Cinema Line, the scale of cinemas owned by Pacific Cinema Line has surpassed Oriental Cinema Line in one fell swoop and has become second only to Golden Harvest Cinema Line.
Moreover, there is another point that the most important thing is that the theaters of the Pacific Cinema Line are not concentrated in Hong Kong and Macao, but across regions.
To put it mildly, although the scale is still small, Pacific Cinemas can already be called an international cinema chain.
The expansion of the Pacific Cinema chain has become a fact.
At this time, Chen Qiming naturally will not hide it from the outside world.
On the contrary, he also provided a lot of resources to publicize the matter.
It's like record companies and film companies will hype up big stars after they join them.
The same is true for cinema companies.
Pacific Cinemas has quietly won a number of theaters in Malaysia and Singapore, and expanded its territory to this side, which is definitely something worth promoting.
This boosts the confidence of others in the same camp.
Think about it, compared to handing over the movie to the Oriental Cinema Line, a theater that can only be released in Hong Kong and Macao.
Giving the film to a cinema chain like Pacific Cinemas with international channels is obviously more attractive to production companies.
This can be seen from the fact that as soon as Chen Qiming returned to Hong Kong, Wang Jing and Tsui Hark immediately called to confirm.
Especially Wang Jing, after getting Chen Qiming's confirmation, he seemed even more excited.
In this regard, Chen Qiming is not surprised at all.
The person produced by the best partner company has been set in the rivers and lakes.
The film will be released to Pacific Cinemas on the 29th of this month.
At this time, it is absolutely exciting for Pacific Cinemas to expand and be able to distribute directly in Singapore and Malaysia.
"By the way? How did you get your license? ”
After chatting with Chen Qiming for a while, Wang Jing asked his biggest question.
License plate!
A license is required for the cinema line.
In particular, Singapore and Malaysia are foreign countries, and it is not easy for Chinese cinema chain companies to get licenses here.
If you don't need a license, you can set up a cinema chain casually, and the cinema company here in Hong Kong has already eaten the cinema chain over there.
Chen Qiming is not the first person to plan to establish an international cinema chain.
"I have a good relationship with the second-in-command in Singapore! In Malaysia, I have business cooperation with the Guo family. ”
Chen Qiming replied with a smile.
Singapore's second-in-command is a fan of Chen Qiming, and Chen Qiming has also been invited to attend his inauguration banquet.
Although this fan is not that kind of loyal fan.
But with this relationship, this gives Chen Qiming the right to have a direct dialogue with him.
After several private contacts, Chen Qiming got the license for the formation of a cinema chain in Singapore.
As for Malaysia.
Although the Chinese in Malaysia do not participate in politics, 80 percent of the rich people in Malaysia are Chinese.
There is a saying that money can make the devil grind.
These Chinese in Malaysia belong to the kind of existence that can influence the Malaysian government in the future.
Chen Qiming happened to know several Malaysian tycoons.
Among them is Guo Henian.
At the beginning, Chen Qiming snatched food from the Guo family and took away the song copyright of Huaxing Records, which made the relationship between the two parties a little stiff.
Later, the Guo family took the initiative to reconcile and invited Chen Qiming to serve as a judge of the rookie singing competition.
came and went, Chen Qiming and Guo Henian also met a few times.
Should I say it or not, Guo Henian can make the Guo family's enterprise so big, and his vision is really extraordinary.
He firmly believes that Chen Qiming's Peacebird is a very high-quality investment product.
Several times they met, they all put forward the idea of acquiring Peacebird.
Of course, Chen Qiming will not agree.
Last year, in 1995, in addition to selling well in the mainland, Hong Kong and Taiwan, Peacebird's clothing also successfully entered Japan, South Korea and Singapore.
Last year, Peacebird made a total profit of $110 million and has become a unicorn in the investment world.
The company's business covers not only casual clothing, but also sports shoes.
Especially since May last year, Peacebird invited the national team table tennis team that won the championship to play a wave of advertising, and then sponsored the CBA, which has just been established for less than two years.
Coupled with Chen Qiming's endorsement and the indiscriminate bombardment of other celebrities, Peacebird has directly become the current No. 1 sports brand in China.
With such a high-quality project, how could Chen Qiming sell it.
However, Chen Qiming is not a person who eats alone.
He gave Guo Henian a chance to obtain the equity of Peacebird.
That is to use the high-quality enterprise equity in the hands of the Guo family to replace the equity of Peacebird.
In the end, Chen Qiming exchanged 10% of the shares of Peacebird from the Guo family, including Tangye Company, Shangri-La Hotel and TVB.
Among them, most of the shares of Peacebird were exchanged for the equity of TVB TV.
Well, it's TVB.
Now Chen Qiming is also a shareholder of TVB, although he is only a small shareholder.
But at the very least, TVB actors should be able to call him a boss when they see him now.
It is precisely because of the exchange of equity with the Guo family that the relationship between the two parties has changed from a little unhappy before to a close partner with you and me, and I with you.
Therefore, when Chen Qiming found the Guo family and asked them to help get the Malaysian cinema operation license, the Guo family did not refuse, and made an appointment with several Malaysian high-level executives in this regard.
Under some commercial operations, Chen Qiming successfully obtained a business license to open a cinema line in Malaysia.
"You're really fast enough to climb!"
On the phone, hearing Chen Qiming's words, Wang Jing suddenly became jealous.
Not the second-in-command in Singapore.
Just the Guo family, it is an existence that ordinary people can't reach.
The Kwok family is the richest man in Malaysia, controlling 40 percent of Malaysia's sugar industry.
"A giant who will never go bankrupt." This sentence describes Guo Henian, the helmsman of the Guo family.
Since the 90s, he has firmly occupied the title of the richest man in Malaysia.
In Hong Kong, he also has many industries and is a veritable wealthy family.
And Chen Qiming, a guy who was born by selling tapes, can talk about business with Guo Henian in just four or five years, Wang Jing really can't imagine how this demon came about.
You say that's why he sings so well.
This is also not true.
Singing, is Teresa Teng not good at singing?
But she is not valued by the Guo family.
As early as October 1981, Britney Teng in the Chinese music scene was very sad because of the Guo family.
She was in a relationship with Guo Jiazi at the time.
When it came to talk about marriage, Teresa Teng had already held a farewell concert in Hong Kong, planning to concentrate on her husband and children after marriage.
Unexpectedly, 5 days before the wedding, the invitation was withdrawn, and the wedding was not completed.
The reason is that Teresa Teng's boyfriend, Zheng Geru, the grandmother of Guo Kongcheng, the son of Guo Henian, put forward 3 conditions to Teresa Teng:
must quit the entertainment industry, not sing publicly, and cut off all friends in the circle.
Since ancient times, it has been very difficult for celebrities to marry wealthy families, because they couldn't pass the Guo family's grandmother and failed, Teresa Teng could only touch her ring and cry bitterly.
Teresa Teng's little sweetness is looked down upon by the Guo family.
Chen Qiming was able to get mixed up to the point of talking about business with the Guo family.
It's incredible.
However, as long as he thought of the rows of peacebird advertisements on the street, Wang Jing was suddenly not surprised.
Peacebird is definitely one of the fastest-rising industrial companies in recent years.
The fashionable clothing and indiscriminate celebrity endorsements have made this company leap up and become a favorite in Hong Kong's investment community.
Now, the whole of Hong Kong doesn't know how many people are interested in this company.
It is said that even the richest man Li is very interested in this company.
If it weren't for the kidnapping of his son, he didn't have time, I'm afraid he would have made an appointment with Chen Qiming to talk about the acquisition by now.
