Rebirth of the Great Entertainment Empire

…

"Fortune" (Fortune Magazine) is a magazine founded by American Henry Luce that mainly publishes research articles on economic issues.

Since the "Fortune" magazine launched the Global 500 list in 1954, it has always been the focus of the economic circles and has had a huge impact.

Zhongxun Co., Ltd., the publisher of "Fortune" (Chinese version), was founded in Hong Kong in 1975 to meet the emerging demand for Western industrial and commercial and technical information in China at that time.

After the land battle.

After another half a month of fermentation and data collection.

"Fortune" (Chinese version) just published a semi-monthly magazine that shocked the whole Xiangjiang: the new identity of the world's number one director - the richest Chinese in the Xiangjiang area.

"Fortune" magazine listed some of Xu Cun's assets in this semi-monthly issue, including Xu Cun's sole proprietorship of DreamWorks, holding 90% of the shares of DreamWorks (US Branch), holding DreamWorks Records (Xiangjiang Branch) 84% of the shares, DreamWorks Records (Taiwan Branch) 70% of the shares, sole proprietorship of Huangtu Land (including Land King by the waterfront of Hong Kong Island, the old wing of the Miramar Hotel , Admiralty Section 2, these three treasures, Xinguang Building, Federal Building, International Building, Queen's Building, Entertainment Building, five buildings, Taiping Cinema, Queen's Theater, Entertainment Cinema, Xinguang Cinema, International Cinema, Yau Ma Tei Cinema and other six theaters and cinemas , and the remaining seventy or eighty mansions and villas after Xu Cun distributed them to the daughters.)

"Fortune" magazine estimates that Xu Cun's assets are currently worth nearly 8 billion Hong Kong dollars, surpassing the world's shipping tycoon Pao Yu-gang, and becoming the richest Chinese in the Hong Kong area.

although--

The information on Xu Cun collected by "Fortune" magazine is not complete - it failed to find out more than five billion Hong Kong dollars in cash deposited by Xu Cun in Swiss Bank, and it also failed to find out the US$100 million owed by Xu Cun to HSBC. Universal Pictures' $70 million debt.

but--

Even so, in terms of personal wealth alone, Xu Cun has become the richest Chinese in the Xiangjiang area.

But then again, Xu Cun, the richest man, felt aggrieved.

Because, the richest man has too many restrictions!

First of all, Xu Cun's richest man is the richest Chinese in the Xiangjiang area—that is to say, Xu Cun can only be the richest man among the Chinese in the tiny place of Xiangjiang.

Secondly, only in terms of personal wealth, Xu Cun is the richest Chinese in the Xiangjiang area - that is to say, in terms of family wealth or group wealth, Xu Cun does not even rank in the top ten.

But in any case, Xu Cun barely won the crown of the richest man.

In addition, Xu Cunxiang's reputation in Xiangjiang is already unparalleled.

Therefore, once this issue of "Fortune" was released, Xu Cun once again became the most influential person in Xiangjiang.

As a result, all the media in Xiangjiang focused on Xu Cun.

What is different from usual is that this time, Xu Cun did not choose to keep a low profile. Instead, he accepted the news from the six major newspapers including "Oriental Daily", "Ming Pao", "Sing Tao Daily", "Xin Bao", "Ta Kung Pao", and "Wen Wei Po". Newspaper visits.

These six major newspapers were all hand-picked by Xu Cun.

The reason for choosing "Oriental Daily", "Ming Pao" and "Sing Tao Daily" is that these three newspapers are the newspapers with the largest circulation in Hong Kong - the reason why Xu Cun made an exception to accept the joint defense is mainly to give "The True Colors of Heroes" and Liberty Cinema Advertise and build momentum.

To be honest, Xu Cun is very confident in "The True Colors of Heroes", but he is not confident in the newly established free theater chain, especially his own theaters and movie theaters. Although the position of the international movie theater is good, it is still a A newly established movie theater, several other theaters, and movie theaters have also undergone renovations and changes. Xu Cunzhen worried that they would slow down "The True Colors of Heroes".

Therefore, Xu Cuncai wanted to take advantage of his first opportunity to become the richest Chinese man in the Xiangjiang area to advertise for "The True Colors of Heroes" and Liberty Cinemas.

The reason for choosing "The Hong Kong Economic Journal" is that the "Hong Kong Economic Journal" is the largest financial newspaper in Xiangjiang - the reason for this joint visit to Xu Cun is because Xu Cun is the new richest Chinese in the Xiangjiang area. If there is no powerful financial newspaper Participation is too much to say!

The reason for choosing Ta Kung Pao and Wen Wei Po, two of the largest leftist newspapers in Xiangjiang, is that Xu Cun is ready to stand in line—to be precise, it should be Xu Cun who is going to sell DreamWorks films to the mainland.

Is Xu Cun's idea bold?

not big.

Because, this is not an impossible task - you know, Golden Harvest had such an opportunity in the previous life.

Before 1985, Golden Harvest established a positive image among the mainland executives by relying on chivalrous films made by kung fu superstars such as Li Xiaolong and Cheng Long. In addition, after Shaw Brothers fell, Golden Harvest took up the banner of Xiangjiang No. 1 Film Company. Therefore, under the personal care of Mr. Deng, Golden Harvest once obtained the right to establish theaters in Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Shanghai, and Wuhan.

Unfortunately, in order to acquire the state-run theaters in Taiwan, Golden Harvest made several films like "Cousin You Are Wild" that damage the image of the mainland to curry favor with the Taiwan authorities.

These films were used by major anti-China, anti-government, and mainland-hostile media and politicians in Hong Kong to amplify reports and attack the mainland, which eventually annoyed the top officials in the mainland.

As a result, Golden Harvest missed a huge opportunity and also ruined the future of Xiangjiang Films.

now.

DreamWorks has already replaced Golden Harvest as the No. 1 film company in Hong Kong.

But whether the opportunity that originally belonged to Golden Harvest can also belong to DreamWorks, and whether it can also belong to Xu Cun is really unknown. It's neutral, even a little bit to the right. Therefore, it is really hard to say whether Xu Cun can get into the eyes of the high-level people in the mainland.

Fortunately, it is the most difficult moment in the Mainland, and the Sino-British negotiations have not yet reached a result.

And Xu Cun not only has a huge reputation in the world, but also is the newly promoted richest Chinese in Xiangjiang, and also controls the Phoenix TV, which can guide public opinion.

Therefore, Xu Cun believes that as long as he, Xu Cun, has a little intention of getting closer to the mainland, the mainland will definitely send people to contact him and win over him.

It is precisely because of this that Xu Cun appointed "Ta Kung Pao" and "Wen Wei Po", the two largest leftist newspapers in Xiangjiang, as the second newspapers to visit him.

Xu Cun guessed right—just after the joint visit, Xu Cun received an invitation from the red-capped businessman Huo Yingdong. Huo Yingdong called Xu Cun himself and invited Xu Cun to attend the year-end summary meeting held by the Xiangjiang Real Estate Construction Chamber of Commerce.
