Chapter 210: Arranging Films Next Year

After the National Day holiday, news came from Hong Kong Island.

Yuanqiu Pictures, a newly established theater chain company under Yuanyuan Media, acquired the established film company Golden Harvest Entertainment for HK$517 million.

Except for Mr. Zou Wenhuai who remains as a lifelong consultant of Jiahe, the Zou family no longer holds any positions in the company.

A legend of Hong Kong film industry has officially changed hands.

At this point, Yuanqiu Pictures (not Yuanqiu Media) became the first listed entertainment company in the mainland.

As for whether Jiahe will be renamed "Yuanqiu Jiahe" in the future, Distance Media only said "uncertain".

Although it was not Yuanqiu Media that was listed through a backdoor merger, Yuanqiu Media was the largest shareholder of Yuanqiu Pictures, which led many people to think that it was Yuanqiu Media that went public.

For a time, the market's valuation of remote media surged again.

The net worth of the aunt and nephew has also increased with the tide.

But the two aunts and nephews have a surprisingly unified view on this matter: "We always put the production of good content first. Golden Harvest is a monument of Chinese-language films. This acquisition is to strengthen the film library and theater strength of Long-range

, we are not going for the purpose of going public."

Huayi is very interesting. Although the cooperation with Yuanqiu is still in the honeymoon period, it still has great ideas about the backdoor listing of Yuanqiu Pictures.

"What is 'the first listed entertainment company in the Mainland'? It was a backdoor listing. Can a backdoor listing be considered a listing of its own entity?" Wang Zhonglei complained to Wang Zhongjun privately.

Huayi has accelerated its pace of listing since the beginning of this year. On March 24, Huayi participated in the "Symposium on GEM IPO Management Measures for Entrepreneurs and Venture Capital Institutions" held by the Shenzhen Stock Exchange.

The company is internally striving to submit a listing report this year and prepare to list on the GEM.

Wang Zhongjun smiled and said: "He was listed on the Hong Kong stock market, and we were the first domestically listed entertainment company. Besides, we are now cooperating closely with Long Distance. He also bought more than 2 million of our original shares. It does no harm to us that he is in the limelight.

, when we release the news that he is our shareholder, it will also be good for us to stimulate the market."

"Brother, I know." Wang Zhonglei said, "But this first place, what a gimmick, to be taken away by him like this."

"It's just a temporary limelight. There is no need to compete with him for it. The most important thing for us now is to prepare our own listing report." Wang Zhongjun is more stable than his younger brother.

Liu Xiaoli came to the racecourse to visit her daughter and did not leave at night. The two stayed at the racecourse.

"Qian Qian, do you know how much money Yu'an has?" Liu's mother asked her daughter

Liu Yifei shook her head: "I don't know why I asked this suddenly."

Liu Xiaoli held her daughter's hand and said: "Yuanqiu Pictures was listed on the backdoor in Hong Kong Island. He also has two companies in Hollywood. I read an analysis in the newspaper and found that his net worth is at least more than 1 billion."

Liu Yifei understood what her mother was saying and was a little annoyed: "Mom!"

Liu Xiaoli said: "Mom is not the kind of person who dislikes poverty and loves wealth. Mom just wants you to be happy."

Liu Yifei turned away and said, "I don't want my relationship with my senior brother to be mixed with too many material interests."

"Silly boy, you don't want to mix too much material, but think about it, if he is so good and rich, how many women will fall for him. If you don't pay close attention, what will you do if he runs away with someone else?"

"I believe senior brother."

"You!" Liu Xiaoli knew that talking too much would easily make her daughter rebel, so she stopped talking immediately and asked her to sleep, and then left to rest.

Liu Yifei really didn't care how much money Cheng Yu'an had. Neither of them was short of money. When it came to food, clothing, housing and transportation, Cheng Yu'an was a little more concerned about it. In other aspects, it was really ordinary. That broken Xiali

It's been 6 years now and it's still parked in his garage.

And Liu Yifei is not a materialistic person. She just needs to dress up brightly because she is in front of the stage. When she is with her classmates and friends in private, she is casual and like an ordinary little girl.

…………

And our director Cheng Yu'an is sitting leisurely in Han Sanping's office - drinking tea.

"You are a very busy person now. It is not easy to see you."

"Just busy." Cheng Yu'an said haha. Ever since a big film company was exposed, Director Han has always wanted to go to sea on Cheng Yu'an's boat.

He even wants to get involved in the investment of "District 9".

Cheng Yu'an directly refused: ""District 9" is not my family's project. Peter Jackson also has a share in it."

"District 9" has a full investment of 30 million. If you don't even have enough to eat, there is no reason to share it with others.

"Director Han, I have made many movies in Hollywood, but how many of them have I actually directed? Whenever the investment amount is high, I have to find the six major companies to cooperate. Our family doesn't care, it's only one or two million yuan."

You don’t even care about the estimated cost of tens of millions of dollars.”

Han Sanping knew that what Cheng Yu'an said was true, but she still wanted to fight for it: "If necessary, think about your own people in the future."

Who wouldn't write a bad check? Of course Cheng Yu'an nodded.

Then the two got down to business, and Director Han said: "You are the first young director to take the initiative to embrace a gift film. I came to see you today because there is a film I want to ask your opinion on."

Then he talked about "The Founding of the People's Republic of China".

This film is a project of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference. The General Administration recommended that Han Dong be the director, but he has not directed a movie in 18 years.

Moreover, he has made a lot of main themes and tribute films, but few of them are profitable.

He now wants to try to combine the main theme with commercial films.

But I felt a little worried, so I asked Cheng Yuan for consultation.

Cheng Yu'an thought for a while and said: "If a movie with this kind of main theme wants to be a big hit, it must have an all-star cast. Just like the movie "The Banquet of the Rich" that raised money for the floods in Hong Kong in 1991, it doesn't matter whether the role is big or small, whether there are words or not.

, all starring stars."

Director Han hesitated: "With so many stars, how do you calculate the salary?"

"Remuneration? How much do you need to pay as a gift to the motherland?" Cheng Yu'an said, "Just a symbolic fee of 100 yuan per person."

"No." Cheng Yu'an said it himself before denying it, "Either pay according to the market price, or don't charge anything at all. Yes, no pay will be given!"

"Is it possible?" Director Han is still not convinced about this model. All-star lineup, you just invite people to come? And you won't be paid.

This is how the prefix Jian came out in later generations.

"Let me think about it." Director Han frowned, a little tempted by this model, but also worried.

Cheng Yu'an suddenly remembered his movie: "Director Han, there is something very difficult."

"What's wrong?"

"My "Mars" company has also set a National Day schedule internally. If "The Founding of the People's Republic" comes in, what will I do? We can't have a fight."

"There's no other way. Otherwise, I'll move you to the Lunar New Year slot, and "The Founding of the People's Republic of China" won't be moved to the Lunar New Year slot." Director Han couldn't help.

"The Martian" is considered a godson here at China Film Group Corporation, and he doesn't want the two films to collide during the National Day schedule next year.

But when "The Martian" was moved to the Lunar New Year schedule, Cheng Yu'an was the first to jump up and curse!

On January 4, 2010, "Avatar" was released in mainland China.

Is Cheng Yu'an crazy enough to put "The Martian" in the Lunar New Year movie? "The Martian" is a good film in his own hands, but he is not confident that it can beat "Avatar".

But now the introduction of "Avatar" has not been confirmed. Cheng Yu'an can't say anything, but he will definitely not be included in the Lunar New Year movie.

"I'll start in early November." Cheng Yu'an thought for a while and said, "But I hope Director Han can help me get the extension key."

"I don't need to fight for it. If "The Martian" performs well enough, the General Administration will ask you to continue showing it." Director Han said with a smile, appreciating Cheng Yu'an's confidence very much.
