Chapter 461 The sky is falling! The dragon head stick! (23)

Zou Wenhuai answered the phone in front of Shen Santong.

After hanging up, he said, "I'll take care of this, Aaron, I'll call too."

Shen Santong said: "There won't be any problems on my side."

Cut off the hemp with a sharp knife.

Shen Santong's purchase of Jiahe will irritate some people in Hong Kong Island.

Jiahe is a toy to Shen Santong, and it is also a small business to some wealthy people in Hong Kong Island.

But movies are not just movies.

Even if Dongda Company offered a market value several times that of a Hollywood film company, no one would sell it.

Even if you buy some shares, it is difficult to pass the review of various institutions.

The transfer of equity and control rights of Hollywood film companies and entertainment groups is only within the scope of the Five Eyes, Ankara, Sahara and Judaism.

Buying this book is a good time.

The key is that it is a dog.

Even so, I spent a lot of money on it before I slowly figured it out.

9 month 19 day.

Friday.

Jiahe’s shares were suspended from trading on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.

Hong Kong media have speculated about possible major changes at Jiahe.

The stock will only be suspended when there are major events such as changes in major shareholders.

Many people in Hong Kong Island already have a bad feeling.

However, Shen Santong and Jiahe have always done a good job of keeping confidentiality, and the media is not aware of the specific changes.

But I didn't have to wait too long, it was nine o'clock in the morning.

Santong Entertainment announced that the company has reached an important cooperation with Jiahe and will hold a press conference at 10 am.

The news is out.

First of all, the Hong Kong media felt like the sky was falling!
Bad premonitions increasing sharply?
No way?
No way?
Shen Santong is such a failure, could it be that he is really the loser of Santong Jiahe?
The relevant mainland departments in Hong Kong also received the news and immediately sent a team to communicate with Santong Entertainment.

The wind is rising in Hong Kong Island.

It blew to the mainland and to the Wandao Island.

Jiahe.

A company that was the overlord of Hong Kong Island's heyday, a company that brought fond memories to countless Chinese people, seems to have reached a certain point.

Ten o'clock in the morning.

Shen Santong accompanied Zou Wenhuai to hold a press conference.

It’s not just the press conference for Santong Entertainment’s full acquisition of Jiahe.

It was also Zou Wenhuai’s retirement press conference.

Shen Santong acquired most of the scattered shares on the market and also obtained the shares of the fourth largest shareholder, Cheng Long.

Cheng Long and Jia He had once had some unpleasantness, but when Zou Wenhuai retired, all they had to do was say hello.

Looking at the time, there were still ten minutes left before the press conference. Zou Wenhuai was calm at this moment: "You don't act like a young man. You have a ruthless heart and ruthless hands."

“As for the other two major shareholders, you might as well give them a reasonable price. Jiahe is a Hong Kong company after all.”

Shen Sandong said: "I am not an unreasonable person."

Zou Wenhuai did not persuade him any further and the shareholders' meeting will be held next Monday.

It was obvious that Shen Santong had prepared a combination of punches.

Zou Wenhuai estimated that Shen Santong had obtained the majority stake.

If he controls the board of directors and management and takes over the majority of shares, the other two shareholders will suffer a miserable outcome if they fight against him.

However, Zou Wenhuai thought about it and didn't think much about it.

I'm retired, so it doesn't matter.

Come to the venue.

Zou Wenhuai looked around and smiled, "It seems that not only the Hong Kong media, but also several official mainland media are here."

Shen Santong said: "After all, I am the first major shareholder of a Hong Kong-listed film company."

Movies are really more than just movies.

The influence is very large.

About ten minutes after Santong Entertainment released the announcement, Shen Santong received several calls explaining some of the situations.

Shen Santong and Zou Wenhuai, accompanied by people from both sides, walked into the venue together.

But all the media only saw two people, one old and one young.

Some Hong Kong media reporters are feeling increasingly uneasy.

Is Jiahe really going to change owners?
Zou Wenhuai did not create any suspense and announced at the beginning: "I have reached an agreement with Santong Entertainment. My daughter and I will sell all of our Jiahe shares to Santong Entertainment."

Buzz!

The venue was silent for a few seconds, then became noisy.

Jiahe is really going to change owners!
Or sell it to mainlanders!
It is not Japanese capital in the guise of Chengtian, but genuine mainland capital.

Zou Wenhuai announced: "I will step down as chairman of the board and will be succeeded by the largest shareholder, Shen Santong."

“My daughter will also step down from the board of directors, and of course I will serve as a consultant to Jiahe to make the handover smoother.”

Shen Santong looked solemn.

After all, he is the former overlord of Hong Kong films, and he is the memory of countless people, and also the memory in his heart.

Basic etiquette is still necessary.

Media exchange time.

Immediately, a reporter from Hong Kong Island asked Zou Wenhuai why he chose Sandong Entertainment.

Zou Wenhuai said: "Santong Entertainment has a good comprehensive structure, financial status and strong production capabilities." "Of course, the guarantee Santong gave me is also very important."

Shen Santong looked at Lao Deng beside him in surprise.

When did he make the promise?
Zou Wenhuai didn't blush or feel nervous.

Flop, you can show your personality, do you think he can't show his personality?

At this moment, Zou Wenhuai wanted to leave something for himself.

If I were to work for another company, I wouldn’t be able to do it even if I wanted to.

But Shen Santong is different, it is really possible.

Zou Wenhuai said: "About a year ago, Santong talked to me and said that he admired my business ideas."

"Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan created two generations of kung fu superstars. The key is that they both portrayed masculine images, which are different from the image of Chinese people created by Hollywood."

"It has greatly enhanced the image of Chinese people around the world and also increased their sense of pride. Wherever there are Chinese people, there will be Jiahe Films."

"aweason!"

"At that time, I thought that if I chose to retire, I would definitely hand over the company to this young man."

Reporters from the mainland were all excited and felt honored.

Unexpectedly, Zou Wenhuai valued Shen Santong so much.

I suddenly imagined the story of a senior appreciating the handover of power by a junior.

The Hong Kong media did not expect that Zou Wenhuai would make such an evaluation.

Zou Chongyan looked at his father in surprise.

It was very unpleasant at that time and we almost got into a fight, but now we are just having a pleasant conversation.

Shen Santong felt something was wrong.

Zou Wenhuai, you old man, are a liar.

Looking back, yes, Zou Wenhuai was slightly moved at that time.

But then again, profit comes first!

Wearing a flattering hat is definitely not a good thing!
Zou Wenhuai continued: "I am tired of hearing so many compliments."

"But San Tong's words made me feel like I had met a close friend."

"Birth, aging, sickness and death. I am already eighty-two years old."

"It's time to sheathe your sword and think about your afterlife."

"I often think about the path of Hong Kong films. After thinking for a long time, I realized that we are on the wrong path!"

"It's not just a problem in the film industry, the core is completely off track."

"Hollywood represents universal values, what are we?"

"Gangster films and police films are far inferior to the early kung fu films, which eliminated evil and promoted good."

"When Dai Ying and the film industry worked together with Wan Dao to suppress the left, the foundation for the decline of Hong Kong films was laid."

“I am also responsible for this.”

hum!
None of the reporters present expected Zou Wenhuai to reveal these things.

In the early years, Hong Kong films were spoken in Mandarin.

Even during the period of Wandao influence, people spoke Mandarin.

It is confirmed that he will return, represent the English team in the game, lay mines, and then speak Cantonese.

Using language to create cultural divisions.

Shen Santong felt very uncomfortable.

If he said these words, it would be more accurate.

Is this something you, Zou Wenhuai, would say?

How much money did you get from Jiahe around 93?
Even earlier, in order to sell the film to Wandao, there must be something shameful going on!
It's definitely not a good thing to flatter and say these things.

really.

Shen Santong heard Zou Wenhuai lying with his eyes open.

Zou Wenhuai said: "I have been working in the film industry for 50 years. Anyone who has worked in the industry for this long should retire. I didn't feel old before, but after my 80th birthday, I found that everyone around me is younger than me."

"When a person reaches this age, his brain power and eyesight have declined, and he can't always occupy a position. If I were 20 years younger, I would be more dedicated to helping the development of Chinese films."

"After retirement, I will no longer be involved in the management of Santong, and my children will no longer take over Jiahe Films, but I will still serve as a consultant for Jiahe. I will gradually withdraw from the film industry."

"My biggest regret is that the mainland film industry was opened up a little late. If it had been 10 or 15 years earlier, I would have had the opportunity to see the rapid development of Chinese films."

"Even if I retire, I hope that Chinese-language films can compete with Hollywood. I can't see that day when I do it myself, but I hope there will be successors who can make that day come."

"Fortunately, I found a young man. When I watched the movie Red Cliff, I felt that there are so many young people to look forward to. I can't film it like that."

"I have communicated with Santong many times. His ideas are very good, and Santong Entertainment has a very complete production system."

"Santong promised me that they would make some good Hong Kong films to reawaken the feelings of Chinese people and global audiences for the Jiahe brand."

Zou Wenhuai clapped his hands and said, "I thought, how wonderful it is, it's as if I saw myself when I was young."

As he spoke, he looked at Shen Santong, as if he was handing over the dragon head stick: "I give you Jiahe, don't forget your promise to me!"

"Even if I retire, I will still watch you!"

Qiao Limei!
That was the promise made when the acquisition was first made, but the price has changed now!

Shen Santong had to keep smiling.

Because Zou Wenhuai gave him something very important.

Jiahe’s claim for Chinese-language films.

Until later generations, domestic films have not achieved the same communication effect as Jiahe.

This thing is useless.

But it is useful, and very useful.
