Huayu Zhihao

Chapter 595 Listing Plan (addition for the guardian "Qinglian Earth" and 100 monthly tickets)

Chen Hao contacted Chen Guofu and learned that Mr. Xun's favorite script was the love suspense film "Li Mi's Conjecture" that he was about to produce!
Chen Hao has heard of this movie before. Mr. Xun of the previous life successfully won the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actress with this movie, and became the first actress in China to successfully achieve the three Golden Grand Slams!

In this case, Mr. Xun must not miss this movie!
However, after communicating with Chen Guofu, "Li Mi's Conjecture" can be filmed in the middle of the year.

Naturally, the first half of the year will be Chen Hao's new film, and "Painted Skin" will be launched by the end of the year, so "Li Mi's Conjecture" can only be released in the middle of the year.

In this way, Mr. Xun's schedule can also be staggered, and this result naturally makes Mr. Xun very excited.

Three movies a year, including award-winning films like "Li Mi's Conjecture", as well as Chen Hao's new film and super-big productions like "Painted Skin", Mr. Xun feels that no one in 2007 has better resources than her !
After finalizing the heroine of the new film, Chen Hao spent another three days drawing the sub-shots of "Those Years" and sending them to Yu Feihong, and then began to write the script.

At this time, Chengtian Entertainment held a press conference, announcing that it would invest a huge sum of 2000 million US dollars to participate in the production of Wu Baige's new film "Red Cliff".

In fact, the filming of "Red Cliff" has been rumored for a long time. After all, it was directed by Wu Baige who came back from the United States. At the same time, Chow Yun-fa, Jin Chengwu, Lin Zhilin, Zhao Yanzi, Zhang Fengyi and Hu Jun were invited to star in the three places.

The investment is 6000 million US dollars, which is said to be an Asian film record!
This is undoubtedly a blockbuster movie with a big director, a big investment, and a big star.

Previously, Chengtian became the focus of attention in the industry because of a series of acquisitions. The media shouted "Wolf is coming" and regarded it as the third largest private entertainment company.

However, Chengtian, who has become fat from one mouthful, seems to need to digest and digest. As far as its subsidiaries are concerned, it is indeed a giant entertainment company, but its production capacity has not kept up.

It also disappointed the media who wanted to see Romance of the Three Kingdoms!
Now, Chengtian has finally announced his ambition in the film and television industry by investing in Wu Baige's new film "Red Cliff". In addition, Chengtian also invested in the masterpiece "Certificate of Fame" before.

Everyone can see that Chengtian is ready to flex his muscles!
However, this is not all about Chengtian's press conference, and then Chengtian dropped another blockbuster!
Chengtian Entertainment will make an acquisition next, and the target is a film company that has been famous for a long time and has a glorious history. The acquisition fund is as high as hundreds of millions, but the specific name is not disclosed.

"Great investment in "Tou Ming Zhuo" and "Red Cliff", Chengtian Entertainment made a strong attack!" --- Sohu Entertainment Report
"Continue to acquire and the capital exceeds [-] million, Huayi? Poly Berner? Bright? Jiahe? Old picture?" --- New Wolf Entertainment
"Chengtian Entertainment strikes hard, targeting Huayi and Haotian!" --- Wangyi Entertainment
……

Chengtian Entertainment's press conference can be said to have stirred up thousands of waves with one stone, instantly attracting strong attention from the media and the industry.

Relying on its strong capital, Chengtian Entertainment finally showed its fangs. The media's long-awaited Romance of the Three Kingdoms seems to be about to be staged. I don't know how the other two giants will react.

At the same time, the acquisition of hundreds of millions of dollars disclosed by Chengtian Entertainment has also aroused various conjectures from the media and the industry.

First of all, Huayi and Haotian are excluded. After all, the three are the biggest competitors, and it is impossible to win the two entertainment giants with only a few hundred million.

Afterwards, countless film companies in the mainland and Hong Kong were analyzed one by one by the media, even the bright ones that had just been involved in film investment and production did not escape.

However, according to what Chengtian said, a film company with a glorious history, Guangliang obviously does not meet the requirements.

The most suitable one should be Jiahe in Xiangjiang!
Needless to say, Jiahe has a glorious history. Jiahe can definitely be called a legend of Chinese-language movies, and the acquisition funds are as high as hundreds of millions.

More importantly, the chairman of Jiahe, Zou Wenhuai, has no successors. Jiahe is now in decline, and Zou Wenhuai is thinking of selling Jiahe.

And Jiahe has rich experience in film production, the copyright of a series of excellent films, and theaters all over Xiangjiang, Baodao and Southeast Asia, which is what Cheng Tian lacks the most.

If Chengtian Entertainment acquires Jiahe, it will definitely be a match made in heaven!

Chengtian Entertainment did not respond to the media's speculation.

But this incident made Chen Hao wake up in an instant. Obviously, Chen Hao knew that the media's speculation was correct, Chengtian Entertainment bought Jiahe!
Although the facts proved that this was a wrong decision, the declining Jiahe and Xiangjiang film markets did not bring Cheng Tian the expected talents and masterpieces.

Instead, Cheng Tian felt like a thorn in his throat, put on heavy shackles, lingered on, and gradually turned into a third-rate entertainment company.

However, Chengtian's acquisition of Jiahe also has an advantage, that is, it successfully went public through a back door, stealing Huayi's limelight and becoming the first entertainment company in the mainland to go public!

This is also what woke Chen Hao up. Now in 2007, Chengtian will acquire the Jiahe shares held by Zou Wenhuai and his daughter, and wait until 2008 to fully acquire Jiahe.

Then in 2009, Chengtian asked Jiahe to acquire his film company Zhihong Film and Television in the mainland, and successfully realized the backdoor listing plan!

4-year-old Chengtian acquires 38-year-old Jiahe!

After 3 years of planning, it was successfully backdoored and listed!

This is the power of capital operation!

listed!listed!listed!

Chen Hao naturally wants Haotian to become the first listed film company in the Mainland!

Not only because of this "No. [-]" title, but also because it represents the strength of this company, as well as its leading position and influence in the Mainland!

I thought it was still early, but when I think about it, it will be less than 3 years before Chengtian goes public!

I have to make a listing plan quickly!
However, Chen Hao didn't quite understand how to go public, so he asked Hu Jin for advice.

"You want Haotian Film and Television to go public?" Hu Jin was a little surprised when he heard this.

"Yes, because I have a hunch that Chengtian is likely to go public through a backdoor through capital operation, so I want to be one step ahead of him!" Chen Hao nodded, "I want to ask about the listing process right now."

"Well, to put it simply, you first have to apply to the China Securities Regulatory Commission for listing, and this application usually takes about half a year.

Then the China Securities Regulatory Commission will send an audit team to review your company's financial statements. The general requirement is to be profitable for three years and not lose money for five years. "Hu Jin introduced.

"Profit for three years and no loss for five years? Haotian Film and Television has been established for five years in July this year!" Chen Hao said.

"Then there is no problem." Hu Jin continued, "And even if the number of years is not enough, there is another way, which is to go public through a backdoor, buy a shell, suspend the listing for half a month, then publicize and update the business field, so that the number of years can be bypassed. "

"After passing the review, it will be scheduled for listing, and there will be an announcement during the period.

However, the waiting time is not certain. Those who have backgrounds and are taken care of can jump in the queue, but those who don’t have to wait a year or two. "

"Looking at it now, the financial statements of Haotian Film and Television must be fine. The next step depends on where you choose to list and which board to list on."

"En!" Chen Hao nodded, signaling Hu Jin to continue.

"There are three exchanges in China, Xiangjiang, Modu and Pengcheng, not to mention the United States, but I personally suggest that you go to Pengcheng for listing, because in comparison, Pengcheng has the least restrictions.

There is no precedent for an entertainment company in the mainland to be listed successfully, so going to Pengcheng has the greatest chance of success. " Hu Jin said.

Chen Hao nodded again. He remembered that Huayi was successfully listed in Pengcheng in his previous life.

"The next step is which board to list on, mainly the difference between the main board and the GEM. The listing conditions on the main board are relatively strict, while the GEM is relatively loose.

Because the GEM itself is to support and encourage small and medium-sized enterprises, or enterprises with great potential but difficult profitability. " Hu Jin said.

"A company with great potential but difficult profitability?" Chen Hao frowned.

"Just like Internet companies, Internet companies are sunrise companies all over the world, but they burn a lot of money, and now they have no good means of profit." Hu Jin gave an example.

Chen Hao nodded knowingly, "Then choose to list on the GEM!"

"Haha, that's a good idea, but it's a pity that there is no GEM in the mainland yet!" Hu Jin shook his head.

"There is no GEM?" Chen Hao was stunned when he heard the words. He remembered that Huayi was listed on the Pengcheng GEM at the end of 2009!

Could it be that the GEM was established in the mainland in 2009, and then Huayi was able to go public?
"In 2000, Pengcheng started to prepare for the GEM, but unfortunately it was stopped. Later, a small and medium-sized board was thought of as a transition. In June last year, the small and medium-sized board was stopped and it was planned to change to the GEM, but until now There is no specific news." Hu Jin said.

"Then we have to wait?" Chen Hao asked.

"If you want to list on the GEM, you have to wait, but if you want to go to the main board, you can do it anytime." Hu Jin laughed.

"Isn't the main board's review requirements rather stringent!?" Chen Hao was a little suspicious when he heard this.

"It is indeed much harsher than the GEM, but Haotian Film and Television has a good profit status, and you and the company are often praised. You can be regarded as a model for companies in the industry, and you have been featured on the news network. The hope of success is quite high." Hu Jin said.

"That is to say, there is no guarantee of [-]% success." Chen Hao heard the words.

"Of course, no company can guarantee 100% success. If there is any bad news before the listing, it may be over immediately." Hu Jin said.

When Chen Hao heard the words, he thought of Tudou.com. In his previous life, before the listing, the wife of the founder made a big divorce and the property distribution was uneven, which directly led to the cancellation of the listing.

Although it was successfully listed later, its market value was much lower than that of Youku, which grabbed the top spot.

"Do you want to go public because of lack of money?" Hu Jin asked suddenly.

"That's not true, the company's funds are still abundant." Chen Hao shook his head.

"In fact, you don't need to rush to go public. If you want to go public, it's usually because of the lack of money for the development of small and medium-sized enterprises. If you don't need money, don't worry, and there are many such companies." Hu Jin laughed.

Chen Hao is right when he thinks about it. In his previous life, Huawei was so big, didn't it never go public?
"However, it is impossible for you not to go public all the time, unless you can guarantee that the company will never be short of money." Hu Jin said, "Besides, as a company founder or management team generally wants the company to go public.

In that way, they can get rich overnight and achieve financial freedom, so that you can bind these core talents to maintain competitiveness, otherwise they will be poached away. "

Chen Hao nodded when he heard the words. This is why many founders of listed companies will give their own team shares. After all, you can't do everything by yourself.

If a company wants to grow and develop, it must have a united management team, otherwise it is impossible to achieve stable development of the company.

Eating alone often ends up with nothing to eat!

"If you really want to go public, you can go directly to Pengcheng's main board now, but if you don't have to go public and you don't need money, you can wait until the GEM comes out.

Although it has been a long time since the small and medium-sized board stopped last year, no matter how late the ChiNext board is, it will definitely come out within two or three years. By then, you can go on the board right away and have a greater chance of success. "Hu Jin suggested.

Chen Hao nodded when he heard the words. Hu Jin's guess was correct. In 2009, the GEM was indeed launched in the mainland, and Huayi was also successfully listed on the Pengcheng GEM at the end of this year.

It's a pity that it was about 3 months later than Chengtian, which went public through the back door!

However, it can be regarded as the first independent listing in the entertainment industry!

"Also, Haotian Film and Television is now a collection of TV dramas, movies, agents and advertisements. If you want to go public, you can split them up and go public one by one." Hu Jin suggested.

"I think so too." Chen Hao nodded.

Whether it is going public now, or waiting for listing on the GEM, or not going public at all, the four major business operations must always be separated.

Therefore, Chen Hao thought whether to dismantle it now, anyway, there will always be such a one-shot, and each of them should be independent, so they can establish themselves early and start a development model of independence as the main and mutual assistance.

Just when Chen Hao was thinking about splitting Haotian Film and Television, Haotian Holdings fully developed the IP "Wulin Biography", the last project, the movie, will be released on February 2st, Thursday.

As the first big IP created by Haotian Holdings, in order to have a perfect ending, the company held a premiere ceremony for "Wulin Biography", and Chen Hao even went to the platform in person.

And the temporarily idle company artists, two flowers and three beauties also all attended, even Deng Chao, Chen Kun, Xu Shanzheng and others also came.

Chen Hao frowned when he saw Deng Chao, because he remembered that Li Wanli told him a few days ago that Deng Chao's contract with the original brokerage company expired this year, so he wanted to sign Deng Chao.

And Huayi has already rushed ahead of Haotian, inviting Deng Chao to star in Feng Dapao's "Assembly Number"!
After hearing the words, Chen Hao thought for a while, and agreed to Li Wanli's idea of ​​signing Deng Chao. After all, Doubichao is still of great commercial value.

As for arranging resources and making friends, Chen Hao thought he would be no worse than Huayi.
