I want to make headlines

Chapter 865 Lobbying (Two in One)

"Is Forrest Gump crazy?"

"Is Forrest Gump rich?"

"Did A-Gump sell Hundred Days Red and China Special Effects?"

Although the news was leaked through familiar media, the news about Forrest Gump's plan to build a theme park still aroused unusual opinions.

Although Bairihong Film and Television Company has only been established for two or three years, its performance and development are really excellent. In particular, this year is a critical year for it. The Asia A plan that was not expected by everyone unexpectedly made a good start. " The TV series "Saint Lich" sold very well, and the ratings were also very good, and the three films that were subsequently approved were all produced this year, and at least two of them will be released.

No matter how you look at it, Bai Rihong's current focus should be on its own movies, but A-Gump, who is the chairman of the company and has the absolute right to speak, suddenly said that he wanted to build a garden...or a very large-scale garden...

If Hundred Days Red is a listed company, I am afraid that the current stock price has already begun to fall.

Unfortunately, it is not.

——"I don't understand what's going on in Gan Jing's head at all? I remember that he played a policeman instead of a business tycoon in his last play. It shouldn't be because he got too deep into the play and didn't come out. There are cross-border developments. But this kind of crossover makes me very confused. I didn’t pay much attention to the film and television industry before, but the market value of listed companies like Guangguang and Huayi is only more than 200 billion, and Bairihong can’t compare with these two. Gan Jing Is it a package and sold the company and changed careers early? This must be a loss for the film and television industry, and it is also an extremely stupid behavior."

—— "It is reported that the famous actor Gan Jing announced that he will build a movie-themed amusement park comparable to Disney in the next few years. This declaration shocked the financial circle where I work. My phone kept ringing in the early hours of the morning. Wechat groups are discussing whether this is true or not. As a result, someone consulted Bairihong, and it is true. Here, I just want to mention two figures. The cost of Disneyland is 55 billion U.S. dollars. years."

——"This is a hype, I'm sure of it. How much is Forrest Gump worth? How much money can he use? Excuse me, although Forrest Gump is an international actor and a household name actor, he is really not worth it So much money, unless it is to persuade real estate companies like Wanda and Evergrande.”

——"Forrest Gump's new movie is coming out?"

Compared with the bewilderment and cautious reaction of the entertainment circle to this matter, the financial and real estate circles are much more straightforward. They can almost conclude that this is a hype, and the profit-driven hype is easy to guess based on common sense. The movie is coming out.

Many people laughed in their hearts. This kind of hype has advantages and disadvantages, but it is not as good as Hundred Days Red's public relations in the past. Could it be that the public relations department has changed?
Soon, another piece of related news came out to verify this idea - A-Gump intends to invite Master Xing to join the new movie.

This time, compared to the hesitation before, the reaction of the entertainment circle was much quicker.

"Wow? Is it the first collaboration between Master Xing and Forrest Gump? I'm looking forward to it!"

"This kind of hype can be exchanged for the cooperation of the two! No matter how hype it is, I will recognize it!"

"The ones upstairs can see clearly that it's only intentional and one-sided. By the way, it's annoying to a brainless fan like you."

Some people cheered, some people looked forward to it, and some people kept sober and noticed A-Gump's unilateral statement, which was indeed unilateral.

This popularity lasted for two days. The news and hot searches were dominated by these two things. When it seemed to be slowly dissipating, the third news came out. Zhou Xingxing was asked about this by the media in Hong Kong. He smiled. Full-faced responses will be seriously considered.

——1. This matter is true. 2. Both parties are open to cooperation.

There is a saying that goes like this, one actor a year, one star in a hundred years.

The status of the king of comedy in the hearts of audience fans can be seen.

Now when it comes to actor, Gan Jing, the winner of the Oscar for Best Actor, is undoubtedly the representative of the actor, and the awards in his hands are far from being as simple as "one a year". The most powerful evidence.

One is the king of comedy who participated in the last film 8 years ago, and the other is an emerging actor who has swept the box office awards around the world and started with a salary of 2000 million in Hollywood. What kind of spark will these two people have?
Just thinking about it is exciting!

However, after the two parties had such news, there was no further progress. Fans, passers-by, and caring people inside and outside the circle paid attention to it for a long time, and even the fan group specialized in blocking the company did not get the exact news.

How will the two work together?
What will be the theme of the collaborative work?
Is it two protagonists or one of them as a supporting role?
Weibo, Tieba, and the official website, people are discussing these things every day, and everyone's enthusiasm is unprecedentedly high.

The meaning of this kind of popular sentiment changed only after the fourth small-scale news was confirmed-Tencent confirmed that it had acquired part of Uber shares held by Forrest Gump.

Without waiting for a response, the fifth piece of news followed. Ali also confirmed that he had acquired part of Uber's shares held by Forrest Gump.

How much is this "partial share"? !
The three parties are quite mysterious and did not announce.

At this time, the people in the financial circle suddenly understood one thing. The matter that Forrest Gump wanted to build a garden before was probably not a little hype. Even if there was Zhou Xingxing's intention to cooperate later, it should be a different matter!

However, how many shares in Uber does Forrest Gump hold?

In order to explore this matter, the professionals "Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea each show their magical powers" checked the news from the United States, and found that the latest shareholding situation was obviously covered up, and it was completely unclear about the shares in Forrest Gump's hands.

At the same time, Uber also regards its own company's data as a commercial secret and does not disclose it to the outside world.

Fortunately, the Internet has memories. A few years ago, the video of A-Gump accepting financial news in the United States was dug out. At that time, Uber was not as big as it is now. Forrest-Gump’s investment in Uber was regarded as a huge sum of money. Vision's venture capital boarded the pages of the US financial media.

Some people in China knew about this matter, but for a giant company like Uber that has gone through multiple rounds of complicated financing, the initial investment money will be diluted very quickly. , Can play a film and television company by myself.

Judging from the current news, Forrest Gump is not short of money?
He is rich, rich, rich!

Then, he is a prodigal, a prodigal, a real prodigal!

Let's not guess whether the money that A-Gump can use is enough to fully cover the overall cost of the film and television amusement park, but carefully guess that it is one-third or at most half, which is also calculated in tens or tens of billions.

This kind of money has to be invested in an amusement park for five or six years. How much will the value of the flow of funds alone be lost?Jinshan Yinshan is not an adjective in front of such an amount!

A film and television amusement park, is it necessary to build it?

So much money invested in the film and television industry can promote the progress of many things?

There is no doubt that A-Gump loves movies very much, otherwise he would not have dreamed of building a movie and TV amusement park, but the way he loves makes many people unable to understand!

For a while, with the endorsement of the acquisitions of the two super giants Tencent and Ali, everyone knew that A-Gump was probably not just talking, he was probably playing for real!

So, where will the announced amusement park be located?

"I think the capital city is pretty good, but it must not be approved for such a big place. Besides, it's quite congested here, and the air isn't that good."

"Why don't you go to Magic City too? But the Disneyland over there has just opened, and the local government is definitely not enthusiastic about creating another homogeneous amusement park."

"For a mountain city, um, the terrain is a bit high, right? Is there a problem with the construction cost?"

A map of Huaxia was spread out in front of Gan Jing, his fingers moved with his eyes, and he made his own evaluation every time he pressed on a city.

The person in the room who could hear his comment was a very well-behaved golden retriever squatting next to it, its ears trembling with the sound of Twolegs.

A person muttered to himself for a long time before Gan Jing stopped and turned his attention to Gouzi.

"Dog, do you know the benefits of having an amusement park with a large area?" He asked the golden retriever.

Gouzi shook his head and remained silent.

"That is, all the traces of what I have done can be displayed in it." Gan Jing paused, then smiled, "Including you. There can be your image in it, and things edited by your dog. I can specially draw Come out with a dog movie corner, like "The Story of Hachiko", I have the copyright and can use it directly."

"Twolegs, that's too troublesome." Golden Retriever didn't quite understand what Twolegs was thinking.

Gan Jing slowly rolled up the map, put it on the desk, and led the dog out of the room to the hall outside.

In July, the sun is shining and the sky is blue.

One person and one dog squinted and sat under a parasol by the pool.

"I want to build an amusement park. Everyone who goes there can enjoy the joy of the movie and remember my existence." Gan Jing put his feet comfortably in the swimming pool and said casually, "You too. What are you waiting for?" God, if you are not in this world, someone will see you again."

"I don't care about this." The dog lay down on all fours, so that the whole dog was in the cool shade of the parasol.

"It's enough for me to care. Disney has been in business for 45 years, and it looks like it can last for a long time. I have so much money that I can't spend it all. I also want a place where I can show movies." Gan Jing I didn't care about the vibrating phone in my pocket, which had been going on for quite a while.

It vibrated from time to time when there was news at the beginning, and the frequency of vibration accelerated when there was an intention to cooperate with Master Xing. Now, it is probably the peak of its vibration frequency.

It seems that as long as the mobile phone is turned on, news will continue to come in. There are those from the entertainment industry, the financial industry, the real estate industry, different local governments, and some who don’t know where to follow. Anyway, you can find your latest news. The number is right.

Gan Jing would look at it at first, but later he realized that he could not do his own things while looking at the mobile phone, so he rejected the mobile phone.

Today, however, this renunciation also seems to have no effect.

The villa's doorbell rang.

It was only two days since Gan Jing returned from Hengdian, and he didn't announce his itinerary to the outside world, and even Hengdian didn't say that it was finished. However, people with great powers had already come to the door.

"A-Gump, hello, I have really heard of you for a long time."

"Hello..." Gan Jing faced the visitor in a suit of big colored underpants and a white vest. I really couldn't blame myself, the visitor in formal attire didn't say hello in advance.

Maybe, it was because he was afraid that he would slip away after saying hello?
This thought flashed through Gan Jing's mind, and he looked at a person he knew next to him, Wang Peng, the deputy director of the Beijing Cultural Bureau. He remembered that he had dealt with the Tan family Peking Opera Club before, and it was obvious that he could accompany him people in the government.

"This is Zhang Gong, the executive deputy mayor of our city, who came here to meet you." Wang Peng introduced.

Gan Jing shook hands quickly, and at least said with a warm expression: "Mayor Zhang can just say anything, why did you come to my side specially, Director Wang, you didn't tell me in advance, I'm ready what."

"Where, I know that A-Gump must be very busy. I just came here today when I have time. In fact, I was abrupt." Zhang Gong's attitude was very kind, and he couldn't see the distance between the executive deputy mayor of a municipality. feel.

Gan Jing blinked, feeling a little shy about his "very busy" state dressed like this, which was too much nonsense, he restrained his urge to ask the leader when the smog would be rectified, and invited the two into the room In the living room, he went into the cloakroom and changed into formal clothes before coming out.

"Mayor, director, you can support our Beijing opera activities. It's not easy to learn the essence of the country. We are people who really like Peking opera and want to pass it on." Gan Jing poured tea for the two of them. , The opening is to talk about Peking Opera.

"Our company has a Peking Opera documentary released this year. If there is no problem, we plan to hit the Oscars next year. I really hope that the city will give more support."

Wang Peng smiled and nodded: "It is our duty to develop and inherit excellent culture, and we must support it."

Gan Jing was full of gratitude: "Thank you for the government's support. With your support, we can develop better!"

The two men spoke in an official tone, and Zhang Gong watched with a smile, but he went straight to the point as soon as he opened his mouth.

"A-Gump, you want to build an amusement park here. We have heard about it and done research. The city is very supportive, and I really hope that you can set the location in the capital." Zhang Gong was not ambiguous at all.

"Hmm..." Gan Jing blinked, telling the truth, "Is there any land?"

"Do you know Gubei Water Town? It's under the Simatai Great Wall." Zhang Gong came prepared.

Gan Jing really didn't know, and shook his head.

"It's a resort town, and more and more people in our capital are going there now." Zhang Gong introduced, "The Simatai Great Wall is the longest section of the Great Wall."

"How big is it?" Gan Jing asked.

"43 square meters." Zhang Gong is very familiar with data.

Gan Jing also responded with statistics: "The Disney in Shanghai is 390 million square meters."

That is the size of nine Gubei water towns!
