Rebirth of the Strongest Tycoon

Vol 2 Chapter 637: 200 million yuan in copyright fees

The next day, the sky was clear.

   Xia Yu continued to go through the process with Rohill and his son, and finally bought 8.5% of the shares of the Land Group at a cost of 660 million Hong Kong dollars.

   At this point, Xia Yu's equity in the Land Group directly exceeded 40%, reaching 42.3%, which is one step closer to the final success.

   After the completion of the transaction, Rohill & Sons Co., Ltd. proceeded to acquire the remaining equity in the Keswick family.

   Now that he knew the plans of the Keswick family, Xia Yu of course ordered Wang Qi not to contact each other, and Bao Yugang and Huo Yingdong would not move the Keswick family’s equity.

   This means that as long as no one rushes in again, no one will compete with Rohill & Sons Co., Ltd., and Phil Keswick’s wishful thinking to reap the benefits of the fisherman will fail.

   As you can imagine, this will definitely save Xia Yu a lot of money.

   When he sent Rohill and his son away, Xia Yu stopped Huo Jianning, took out several carefully made game plans, and asked him to register patents immediately and build a team based on these games.

   After returning, Huo Jianning, who has a deep understanding of the game, read these game plans and was shocked by the chairman Xia Yu. He immediately increased his confidence and enthusiastically speeded up the construction work of Tiangong Electronics.

   In the next few days, Xia Yu went to various companies to make public and secret visits to learn more about the actual situation of each company.

   Xia Yu's mind about each company was refreshed.

   For example, Jiuding Book Publishing Co., Ltd. Gavin Peter was very passionate about acquisitions, especially when Xia Yu told him in the UK that he wanted him to acquire the Guinness Book of World Records, Gavin Peter went all out.

   At this time, the Guinness Book of World Records Company has been acquired and became a wholly-owned overseas subsidiary. Jiuding Book Publishing Co., Ltd. relied on it to successfully raise the banner in the UK.

   And Gavin Peter was deeply influenced by Xia Yu and made great progress in marketing mind. He even cooperated with Universal Television to prepare to launch a Guinness World Record challenge program called "Challenge Guinness."

   Xia Yu seemed to have a sense of familiarity at first glance. After a little recollection, he remembered that later CCTV had a program of this nature called "Guinness of China Night", and the ratings and influence were still impressive.

   Therefore, Xia Yu put forward some powerful suggestions to let them avoid detours and encourage him to continue to carry forward.

   In addition to Jiuding Book Publishing Co., Ltd., other companies have made considerable progress and development.

   The number of accounts and deposits of Jiuding Bank has been rising all the way, and it has already obtained bank access licenses in Thailand, Malaysia, and Indonesia. It is preparing to establish the first branch in various countries and is also the head office of Jiuding Bank in various countries.

Global Cinemas has established a firm foothold, relying on the box office sharing model, and has been sought after by film companies. After the initial run-in, Jiang Zhiqiang has mastered the skill of using the market to discover good movies, and has a million box office Nine films were discovered, and one of them reached a box office of 3.2 million Hong Kong dollars, which made a lot of small and medium film companies crazy.

And in the past few months, with the support of Jiuding Bank, Jiang Zhiqiang launched a gold-dollar offensive in Southeast Asia. Before the Shao’s obstruction, he bought one in Thailand, the Philippines, Malaysia, and Indonesia. Large theaters.

   These four theater lines add up, the total number of theaters has reached forty-eight.

   In Singapore, Jiang Zhiqiang also bought three large movie theaters.

The result of this battle, which was named by Jiang Xieqiang as the "Cinema Sneak Attack on Pearl Harbor", was extremely gratifying. In more than two months, 51 theaters were won. Although it cost more than 50 million Hong Kong dollars, it was seen in Xia Yu. Everything is worth it.

   This action has given the Global Cinemas a firm foothold in Southeast Asia and has the qualifications to break their wrists with the Shaw Cinemas.

   But if you want to defeat the Shaw Cinemas, which has been run by the Shao family for more than 30 years, there is still some way to go.

   After all, the Shaw Cinemas in Southeast Asia have as many as 130 directly operated by the Shao family alone, plus more than 200 franchise theaters.

   The strength of the Global Cinemas at this time is equivalent to between one-third and a quarter of the Shaw Cinemas.

   But now because of the film-sharing system and the large-scale production of many films by the Galaxy Film Company, the global cinema chain has solved the biggest shortcoming of film sources.

   Regarding the competition with the Shaw Cinemas, Jiang Xieqiang is completely worthwhile.

   Anyway, he has the support of the chairman's treasury. His goal is to always acquire theaters, surpassing Shaw Cinemas in the number of seats and screens, and at the same time transform the theaters that have been acquired.

The Southeast Asia cinema line renovation project will be taken over by Jiuding Infrastructure Construction Company. One of its predecessors, Kinmen Construction, has a large foundation in Southeast Asia. For Jiuding Infrastructure’s branches in various countries, the renovation of the cinema line is completely insignificant. If the project were not directly ordered by the parent company of Xiangjiang, the branches of various countries might not have the energy to undertake it.

   As for Universal Television, it ushered in a big explosion.

The TVB station, which was originally suppressed by Universal Television, is out of breath. Now, on the basis of optimizing the original TV programs, it has released the film "Universal Film Report" and the music "Golden Songs" and other programs. It has greatly enriched the entertainment life of citizens and has been sought after by the audience.

   Among them, the "Universal Film Report" column is Xia Yu's trump card program that copied the CCTV movie channel of later generations.

   And "Golden Songs" was a trump card program produced by TVB two years later, which was made by Xia Yu in advance.

Fortunately, Shao Yifu was inspired by the "Universal Film Report" to use the huge library of Shaw Brothers movies, cut off two programs that were severely impacted by Universal Television, and broadcast an old movie at a fixed time every day, attracting a part of the audience. Finally came up with a bright spot.

   However, this bright spot can only provide TVB with a respite. It is impossible to make a comeback!

   After all, Huang Xizhao is also not for dry food. He sent people to buy the old film rights of other film companies except Shaw Brothers and Jiahe. The focus is on Taiwan Province, and there has been a lot of progress.

   As long as the old film library of the major film companies in Taiwan Province is taken, Universal Television Station can also open up another program to broadcast old movies to compete head-on with TVB.

   At this time, in the minds of Xiangjiang citizens, they have successfully shaped the entertainment attributes for Universal Television, from TV dramas to variety shows, from music to animation ~www.ltnovel.com~Universal Television has achieved audience coverage for all ages.

   In addition to these, the revenue of Universal Television has exploded directly, thanks to the "Millionaire" program that is popular in Hong Kong. Not only Southeast Asian countries, but also large TV stations in Europe and the United States such as the United Kingdom, the United States and other European countries have purchased production copyright licenses.

After obtaining the approval of Chairman Xia Yu, Huang Xizhao sold a high price under a deliberately created competition. Universal Television alone sold the production license for 100 episodes and earned 230 million Hong Kong dollars. It sold 30 million Hong Kong dollars to the British BBC.

  Thanks to the huge population of the United States, the selling price to the American Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) was the highest, reaching 130 million Hong Kong dollars, an average of 1.3 million Hong Kong dollars per episode.

Even so, the TV station that bought the copyright can still make a lot of money. Xia Yu knows that the net profit of the next generation ABC on the "Millionaire" program can reach 1.5 million yuan. Between two million U.S. dollars, equivalent to 6.9 million to 9.2 million Hong Kong dollars.

   Universal TV only collected 1.3 million per episode, which is less than one-fifth, which is less.

   Holding a capital of more than two billion yuan, Huang Xizhao's heart swelled sharply, speeding up the basic investment of Universal Television and speeding up the construction of Universal Studios.

   At the same time, he also meticulously wrote a plan and submitted it to Xia Yu for approval.

   At this time, Xia Yu is looking at the plan in the office of the chairman of Universal Television, and the director of the TV station, Huang Xizhao, who is high in the eyes of the TV station employees, is waiting respectfully and waiting for Xia Yu's comments.
