I haven't been a boss for many years

Chapter 679
"In the rivers and lakes, surviving is the first priority, and living comfortably is the second priority. Run away and sprinkle water." Zhang Guobin boarded the plane, leaned in the first-class cabin, took off his sunglasses, and smiled.

……

The Spring Festival is over.

The auction price of Heyi Changhong is one million Hong Kong dollars, which is lower than in previous years. However, it is not that the Heyi brands cannot take out the silver paper, but that there is a new Heyi brand "Heyi Qing" asking for the price.

Adhering to the idea of ​​solidarity, friendship and support for newcomers, Heyixiang masters gave Changhong to Heyiqing one after another, and Heyiqing took Changhong back to Tokyo.

This is the first time that Yi Changhong and Yi Changhong were welcomed overseas, and the news spread, which made the Jianghu brothers feel very proud.

Hutchison Building.

Li Dawei sat in the office and reported aloud: "Zhang Sheng, the Spring Festival file "Flying Dragon" won 3578 million box office in Hong Kong, ranking first in the company. Huazi's "Shanghai Bund" scored 2382 million box office. Mr. Zhou's "The Best Lost Friend" had a box office of 2282 million."

"The top ten films at the box office last year have been counted, and the company has five of them. The first is the company's "Slaying the Wolf", the third is Xu's "Chicken and Duck Talk", and the fifth is Debao The performance of the movie "Richness is Overwhelming", New Arts City is still doing well, Shaw Brothers' films are weak, and no film has entered the top ten this year."

Among the top ten box office films in 87, a group of film companies with new names appeared, but they were all independent companies established by local filmmakers. It seems that they have changed a lot, but in fact, the same old faces are still on the movie screen.

The Xu brothers are worthy of being the ace brothers in the film industry, singing and filming, everything is good.

Before Zhou Xingchi was born, the Hui brothers were the mainstay of Hong Kong comedy. After Zhou Xingchi cooperated with DreamWorks to film "The Tricky Expert", he was pulled back by Shaw Brothers to make TV dramas. He has not yet starred and directed independently. Qualifications.

For migrant workers with contracts, the journey is destined to be more difficult.

DreamWorks is also not interested in spending a lot of money to buy out Zhou Xingchi's contract.

Zhou Xingchi is still in the process of being polished, and he spends a lot of money to buy an actor in the polishing stage. The investment is not proportional to the return. If he vigorously cultivates and raises the other party, there may be no shortage of investors due to the other party's potential. Even if he sues for sky-high compensation, It will also ruin the relationship between the two parties. It is better to wait until the future to directly cooperate and share.

"DreamWorks has performed very strongly this year. According to my opinion, we will continue to increase our holdings in Baohe and increase our funds for Cheng Long and Hong Jingbao."

"If they want to direct and act on their own, DreamWorks can just fund it and not be responsible for the management, and the final review process will be fine."

Zhang Guobin said.

Li Dawei nodded: "Okay, big boss."

After Cheng Long finished filming "Police Story Sequel", he released "Police Story III". The entire "Police Story" series is a very profitable ace series.

But when "Police Story III" was filmed, the box office and word-of-mouth declined to a certain extent, even if "Police Story III" still earned DreamWorks [-] million in dividends.

In the film industry, there is still public opinion that Cheng Longjiang is exhausted and can't make good movies anymore. Even film weekly magazines began to comment that Cheng Long is consuming audiences.

This kind of wind criticism is something that every evergreen tree in the film industry will encounter. A creative industry that has been active for too long will encounter criticism every time it falls into a bottleneck period.

Cheng Long fell into the bottleneck period of "Kung Fu Movies" before making "Project A", until he created the theme of "Police and Bandit Action Movies", breaking through the bottleneck period again.

Until it fell into the bottleneck period of "cops and robbers action movies" again, it was not known where the next breakthrough would be.

Every time a filmmaker is in a bottleneck period, word of mouth will decline, investors will lose confidence, opportunities for trial and error will be reduced, etc...

If you don't seize an opportunity, you will really fall into the quagmire and quit the film industry quietly.

After "Police Story III", Zhang Guobin continued to invest in Cheng Long's films, but the investment amount decided by the company dropped.

In fact, Cheng Long's next breakthrough has already taken shape in "Flying Dragon". It is not only a "special effects and special effects film", but the more outstanding ones are "Fire Island", "Flying Eagle Project", and "New Police Story". Use it as a selling point, achieve the effect that martial arts cannot achieve, and use big scenes to attract box office.

In addition, the international route is also a good move. The "Rush Hour" series is under preparation and will become the work of DreamWorks action films entering Hollywood.

The most important thing is that DreamWorks needs an international brand. After Hong Kong's return, the entertainment industry needs a representative figure.

In terms of influence, image, and audience selection, this character is nothing more than Cheng Long, Chow Yun-fat, and Liu Dehua. The star effect of the rest is much worse.

In addition to Cheng Long's movies, Yihai Group also values ​​Cheng Long himself!
……

Cao Renchao came to the president's office to report on his work: "Zhang Sheng, there are rumors that Mr. Huo intends to sell the shares of Aoyu Entertainment. I think it is a good time to make a purchase."

OMG is currently the only official gaming company in Haojiang holding a gambling license. Under the exclusive management system, it is tantamount to a monopoly in the industry.

Although the income has to be turned over to the Portuguese government in proportion, there is at least one billion Hong Kong dollars in income every year.

This Haojiang gambling card will never expire. Even if the Haojiang government announced the issuance of additional gambling cards in 02, it was issued from one to two.

The large and small casinos and entertainment centers in Haojiang are all under the name of two gambling cards.

These two are the mother cards.

The rest are sub-licences.

This equity transfer will definitely usher in a fierce competition, at least hundreds of millions of dollars will have to be invested, which is beyond the trading scope of Guobin Securities.

Zhang Guobin was taken aback for a moment, and asked aloud, "Are you optimistic about the development of Haojiang's gambling industry?"

Cao Renchao said with a smile: "The development of the gambling industry is deeply related to the regional economy. Europe and the United States need Asia to make low-end industrial chain OEMs. The entire Asian economy will rise in the next 30 years."

"Every country in Asia will cultivate a group of rich people. The rich need consumption and spiritual stimulation. Those are the few things. Haojiang is not the Las Vegas of the East. Las Vegas will be the Haojiang of the West."

Zhang Guobin chuckled: "Okay, I will contact Mr. Huo personally about this matter."

Zhang Guobin was also fascinated by Haojiang gambling. When his subordinate left the office, he immediately took out his mobile phone and dialed Mr. Huo's private phone number.

"beep……"

The housekeeper handed a phone to the master: "Huo Sheng."

Mr. Huo was wearing a white sportswear and was walking in the garden. Hearing this, he smiled lightly: "A lot of people called me today. It seems that the word gambling is very attractive."

"Di."

He picked up the phone and raised his voice, "Who is it?"

"Brother Tai, I'm Zhang Guobin." Zhang Guobin leaned on the chair, turned the back of the chair, and looked at the sea view of Victoria Harbor outside the floor-to-ceiling windows.

Mr. Huo said in surprise, "Mr. Zhang."

"Are you also interested in the gambling industry?"

Zhang Guobin laughed and said: "Brother Tai said everything I wanted to say, so I can't ask him to play football. I wonder if Brother Tai can take time to talk to me."

Mr. Huo laughed heartily: "Hahaha, Abin, kicking waves is kicking waves, and talking about business is business. If I want to sell something, you want to buy it."

"Of course I'd be happy to talk to you. What's more, you are one of the biggest plumbers in Xiangjiang. Since you are interested, how many people can beat you?"

Zhang Guobin simply said: "Brother Tai, set a time."

"Tomorrow afternoon, at five o'clock, see you at Xinde Manor."

"it is good!"

Zhang Guobin agreed.

evening.

The sky is white, and the sun is bright yellow, like a salted egg yolk.

New Territories.

At the entrance of a single-family villa in the manor, several luxury cars were parked side by side. Among them were the cars of Boss Zheng from New World Development Group, He Hongsheng, a tycoon from Haojiang, and Li Zhaoji, the boss of Henderson Lighting...

These people's private cars, car models, license plates, and models are all well-known in the business world, and the owners are even top-tier tycoons.

Macau Entertainment Ho Hung Seng HK1.

Yihai Group President HK8.

The "1" license plate is the special car of the Commissioner of Police, while HK1 is the Hong Kong license plate car of the boss of the Hao Jiang gambling industry.

Huo Guantai was wearing a suit and a bow tie, formally dressed, and was talking with three friends in the lobby, when he heard the sound of parking at the door, he just turned his head, a young man stepped forward vigorously, raised his hand to say hello, and said loudly: " Tago!"

"Li Sheng!"

"Director Zheng!"

Holding the gentleman's stick in his right hand, Huo Guantai said with a smile, "Mr. Zhang is here."

Li Zhaoji also greeted: "Boss Zhang!"

Wearing a white suit, Zheng Yutong smiled kindly and said, "Mr. Zhang, why did I meet you again?"

Zhang Guobin bowed and shook hands with Brother Tai, then greeted Mr. Li, and laughed when shaking hands with Zheng Dong: "Zheng Dong, I wonder how I saw you again!"

"Everyone is a businessman, we are where there is money." Zheng Yutong teased, Zhang Guobin also said with a smile: "The last time the ferry business was given to you, Haojiang Hydropower Company's shares have not competed for you."

"I won't show mercy this time!"

Zheng Yutong has good energy in Haojiang, and getting a controlling stake in Haojiang's hydropower business means he has already entered the people's livelihood industry in Haojiang.

Boss Zheng laughed loudly when he heard the words: "It seems that last time the hydropower company was merciful to you? Thank you Zhang Sheng, please let me this time."

"I will definitely reward you next time!"

Zhang Guobin also admired his cheekiness of a big boss.

"Thinking beautiful!"

He Hongsheng took advantage of the situation and held out his hand, saying: "Mr. Zhang, this is the first time we meet, please take care of me."

Zhang Guobin held his hand, looked at the famous Haojiang businessman in front of him, felt a little off, and nodded in greeting: "Mr. He is a landlord and the controller of Macau Entertainment. Please take care of me, sir."

"You're welcome."

He Hongsheng said.

Huo Guantai raised his cane, turned around and raised his hand and said: "The four of you come to the tea room to sit down and talk, I hope we can reach a conclusion in one session, and I just want to talk to you all once."

These four people are the four bosses who are finally shortlisted for the equity of Aoyu Entertainment. Who can become the new banker of Haojiang will be decided after a meal.
