Chapter 464: Dream Hong Kong 2, Joining the crew of "Inception" (12)

Gillian Chung’s appearance is indeed good, but her figure is average.

The face is a cross between a virgin and a lustful woman, which is pretty good.

While Gillian Chung was busy at Lizzy, she complained: "I have been taking singing and dancing training in Hong Kong Island and Japan for the past six months or so. I couldn't afford the tuition and had to borrow money from the company."

"The economy is bad now, I stopped working, and my family can't pay the mortgage. I had to sell the house I was paying for at a very low price to deal with the emergency."

While Shen Santong was enjoying Lizi's performance, he still had the energy to comment: "It's a lesson learned. This is what happens when you meet the wrong person."

"If you enjoy the benefits of a jade girl, you will naturally have to pay a price."

Gillian Chung said: "Of course I know, but I also want to work."

work?

Shen Santong pretended not to hear and paid the money.

"Why don't you learn from another member of your group, Asa? She is very smart. She ignored Chen Guanxi and went to find Zheng Donghan's son Zheng Zhongji."

The Hong Kong entertainment industry is really chaotic, the market is small, and the trend of seeking attention is very serious.

In addition, the underworld was rampant in the early years.

Why was Yongsheng, a newly opened film company in the 80s, able to sign so many big stars in a short period of time?
Because the Xiang family is black.

Why was it that Gutianle was able to become a one-stop movie tycoon in such a short period of time, providing production, editing and distribution services?
Because the financial backer behind him, Sun City, Xi Mihua, is also a corrupt official.

Hong Kong Island is bizarre.

Take the photography exhibition incident for example. The police did not catch the person who posted the study materials online.

Shi Kejun, the computer company employee suspected of leaking the photos, has not yet been sentenced, but has behaved very well.

After being arrested, he hid at home for several months. He only went to the law firm and did not go anywhere else. He spent his time watching TV.

Xie Liqiao, who was doing maintenance for Chen Guanxi, deleted the post after reading it without making it public.

Shi Kejun was young and fearless back then, and shared all kinds of things.

Things can teach people, and they will learn once they are taught. Now he understands the danger.

In comparison, Ajiao is indeed too naive and not as smart as Asa.

With Zheng Donghan as a big Buddha protecting us, we will have less trouble.

A Jiao said: "I can't compare with her. Her father is a businessman. Even the Twins concerts, fan clubs and other group activities are handed over to her father by the company. This is a huge income."

"Director Shen, can you give me a chance?"

Lizi was unhappy. Ajiao didn't know the rules, so she smiled and interrupted, "Move a little."

Thinking that she would retire in a few months, Shen Santong couldn't help but put in a lot of effort.

the other side.

Zheng Donghan thought and weighed the pros and cons over and over again.

He called Cheng Long to find out about the shares he held.

Cheng Long replied that it was hard to say since the agreement had been signed.

9 month 22 day.

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

Zheng Donghan decided to sell his shares to Shen Santong.

After receiving a call from Li Zekai, Zheng Donghan explained the situation: "Mr. Li, you don't care, but this money is a lot for me, I won't follow you."

Li Zekai saw that the situation was hopeless and there was nothing he could do, so he called his secretary and said, "Please help me schedule a date with Shen Santong. I can sell my shares to him."

After about ten minutes, the secretary reported: "The price is not very ideal."

Li Zekai had a bad feeling and said irritably, "Tell me, what's the price?"

The secretary said, "Ten million."

Li Zekai's face was grim: "All the shares? He offered this price for the 24% of shares I hold?"

The secretary nodded.

Li Zekai almost vomited blood. It was not just being cut in half, it was literally being cut off from the ankles!
You, Shen Santong, paid 120 million to buy almost the same shares of Zou family, and Zheng Donghan also gave 50 million. It's too much.

Jiahe office location.

Shen Santong has been holding meetings with management during the day these days.

The effect is good.

He simply asked the finance department to move in and complete the handover, everything else remained the same, and everyone's salaries were increased.

From management to ordinary employees, the average salary increase is 10%.

In the current financial crisis, not only did they not lay off employees, they also increased their salaries, which was enough to win people's hearts and minds.

Shen Santong gradually took over Jiahe's business.

Jiahe has a relatively complete cinema network, with more than 30 cinemas and more than 200 theaters, and has a leading position in Asia.

In 05, it opened its first flagship cinema in Shenzhen and was the first in the country to introduce mobile phone text messaging and Internet ticketing services. Its box office revenue has ranked first in the country several times.

There is also a cinema on Wandao Island.

Shen Santong plans to divest its mainland-related cinema business and sell it to Santong Entertainment.

Wandao Cinemas will try to retain its operations as before.

However, Taiwan restricts the entry of mainland capital, so even if it turns around from Hong Kong Island, it may not work and there is a high probability that it will be divested.

Shen Santong is not in a hurry to make changes. He wants to achieve full control first and sort out the business and finances.

As for the shares in Li Zekai's hands, Shen Santong was already being careful with his manners by giving him 10 million.

night.

Shen Santong begins his emotional journey
Jia Jingwen struggled and said, "Xie Xun, what are you crazy about? I am the princess of the royal palace and the lover of your adopted son Zhang Cuishan's son Zhang Wuji. How dare you bully me?"

Shen Santong auditioned for Alyssa Chia.

This married man.

When he saw the list provided by Lizzie, he was surprised. He didn't expect that there was a side job.

It's really sentimental.

If he could have called Gao Yuanyuan to join him, he would have played Zhang Wuji.

Unfortunately, I was afraid of being beaten to death.

I can only think about it.

Shen Santong blended into the scene and said, "Don't mention Zhang Wuji anymore. He is such a bastard. He gave up the Han people's kingdom to lick a Mongolian witch like you."

Jia Jingwen is also a veteran actor: "You can kill me or chop me up, whatever you want, just don't bully me." Shen Santong tried his best to express himself, and suddenly sighed: "Zhao Min, to be honest, I can't blame you. You are just a character in my writing."

"I was born in Baoyi family and inherited the servile gene from my ancestors. It is understandable that I retired for you."

Even though Jia Jingwen is a veteran actor, she couldn't take it anymore: "No, we have to, perform, okay?"

Shen Sandong said: "I am still in the play, how can I leave the play?"

Jia Jingwen: "Is it in the play? It's obviously me"

Shen Santong interrupted: "This is called breaking the dimensional wall. Let's have a conversation where Xie Xun complains about the author."

Jia Jingwen waited for him to finally slow down and said, "Be gentle, my barrier is about to be broken by you."

Shen Santong said: "I have opened up the ceiling of your acting skills. Besides, as a wife, you should be more tolerant."

Although the sentiment is good, Shen Santong is very cautious.

Recorded a lot of wonderful videos.

9 month 23 day.

Shen Santong convened a board meeting.

Discussions were underway to acquire half of Santong Entertainment's Lunar New Year blockbuster "Lost on Journey," which cost 13009 million to produce, at a total price of 5000 million RMB (approximately HKD ), a four-fold premium.

Li Zekai's board representative objected: "We don't have that much money."

Shen Santong said: "I'm investing in expanding the shares. This movie is the highlight of Santong Entertainment. The box office in mainland China is estimated to be over 600 million. There will still be some profit after we win it."

"It is also the beginning of the cooperation between Jiahe and Santong Entertainment. Jiahe will be one of the producers."

"With the experience of operating the Spring Festival period, we can work together to promote the progress of Chinese-language films."

Shen Santong spoke with great righteousness, turning his left hand to his right.

In the company, Li Zekai is the only major shareholder with significant influence.

Li Jiacheng acquired Jiahe shares twice. The first time was when Lin Jianyue maliciously acquired Jiahe and acted as a white knight. The second time was a financing event and he followed suit and got shares second only to the Zou family.

There are so many city affairs in the Li family, but he doesn't ask about them and leaves them to his second son Li Zekai who is interested in the entertainment industry.

In 99, Li Zekai bought 220% of Tencent's shares for US$20 million. In just two years, he made more than five times the profit.

Made a killing, then sold out when the tech bubble burst.

Li Zekai has always been interested in the entertainment industry.

Okudai Toyotomi Agency, of which Yingke Dianxun is a shareholder, and Zhang Jiazhen, the producer of Wu Yusen's "Red Cliff", serves as the CEO.

Later, Star City Entertainment, a company invested by Yang Ziqiong, and Yingke Electronics also got involved.

Li Zekai and Yang Ziqiong have a very good relationship, and Isabella Leong was introduced to them by Yang Ziqiong.

Not only his son Li Zekai is interested in the entertainment industry, but the Li family’s city is also interested.

He went a step further and started a TV station, establishing Asia Satellite Television Corporation in 1991.

Director representative Li Zekai wanted to speak, but Shen Santong directly proposed: "Let's vote."

"Okay, majority agree, vote passed."

Jiahe immediately announced the news to the public.

The injection of HK$130 million means that the shares of related parties other than Santong Entertainment will be greatly diluted.

Upon hearing the news, Li Zekai burst into curses.

This is a blatant slap in the face of this little superman!
There are not many scattered shares of Jiahe, and they are aimed at him.

Li Zekai ordered the spokesperson to express his protest, saying that Shen Santong was blatantly infringing on the interests of shareholders.

However, Jiahe’s stock price subsequently surged, indicating that the market is optimistic about this move.

When the news came out, everyone in the Hong Kong circle was shocked. Is Shen Santong fighting with Little Superman?

Li Zekai couldn't swallow this breath, and he gritted his teeth and called, "Sell all the Jiahe stocks I have, and use all means to short it!"

On September 9, Hong Kong stock investors witnessed a fierce stock war with Jiahe as the battlefield.

The stock price rose sharply several times.

And then it plummeted again, with repeated friction.

night.

Shen Santong missed the feelings again.

I will be leaving Hong Kong to join the crew tomorrow, and Lizzie has arranged a special event.

Fairy Zixia, Ying Caier and many others.

9 month 24 day.

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

Shen Santong left Hong Kong and flew to Thailand.

The purpose of this trip to Hong Kong Island was achieved.

After yesterday's reshuffle and the suspension of trading for share expansion, Shen Santong and persons acting in concert have absolute control over Jiahe, holding more than 25% of the shares. The next step is to sell back the shares and maintain % of the outstanding shares.

on the plane.

Shen Santong dozed off.

No wonder Lin Jianyue’s mother has that attitude towards Lin Jianyue and Joey Wong, it’s really confusing.

Although Shen Santong knew that Hong Kong Island had a conservative and backward side of feudal remnants as well as a corrupt capitalist side, this trip to Hong Kong Island allowed him to experience it firsthand.

Ordinary people in Hong Kong are like being stuffed in a can of sardines, but for some wealthy people it is a different life.

He manipulates the company's stock price during the day and treats shareholders like ants.

Shen Santong had fun every night and felt that if he continued like this, he would become the person he hated.

Shen Santong made up his mind and resolve.

From now on, I will just have a few fixed partners and won’t be so casual anymore.

in the afternoon.

Arrived in Thailand.

Shen Santong met with the main creators behind "Inception".

9 month 25 day.

Shen Santong and the actors read the script together. This version of "Inception" cannot be said to be completely different from the original, but it is certainly a departure from the original.
