Wang Zhongjun appeared so unexpectedly that when he raised his placard to bid for the jade unicorn worth 3 billion Hong Kong dollars, the rich people in the venue noticed this man who did not look special at all. And because most Hong Kong people
We didn’t know much about the two brothers, so everyone didn’t know his background until Kang Chuandeng introduced him in public as the CEO of Polaris Media and Entertainment Group.
However, many people present had never heard of the company "Polaris", and they all looked at each other and asked: "'Polaris'? What company is it from? Is it from the media? That guy is so arrogant. He made three billion in one move.
Since when has there been such a powerful entertainment company in mainland China? Doesn’t it mean that the central government has strict control over the media and public opinion?”
We can't blame these people for not having heard of "Polaris", because when Zhou Hao originally acquired Asia Television, although he mobilized funds through "Polaris" and made ATV a wholly-owned subsidiary of "Polaris", ATV never made it public.
Pass the acquirer’s information and do not
As in the past, every time the ownership changes, the acquisition or financing party will be hyped up to use its strength to increase public confidence in ATV. For example, after Lin Boxin took over ATV, ATV hyped up that it would be a big success after acquiring Lixin Group.
Chen Hsong defeated TVB.
Zhou Hao did not do this. Instead, he kept "Polaris" a secret and used practical actions to prove to everyone the rise of ATV instead of empty words. In addition, the Industrial and Commercial Bureau of Hong Kong was asked at the time to ask the mother of ATV to
The company's information is kept confidential. Therefore, only people like Run Run Shaw who really care about ATV or those who have broad connections know that ATV is the "North Star" and are more or less aware of its strength.
The two films produced by "Polaris", "Jing Ke Assassins the King of Qin" and "Looking for the Gun", are not well-known in Hong Kong due to the strange regional culture, and not many people know that the film "Darkness" produced the Academy Award-winning best film.
Hong Kong Neptune Entertainment Company of "War" is also one of the subsidiaries of "Polaris".
However, even Run Run Shaw and the others did not follow Wang Zhongjun and Wang Zhonglei, the two brothers who manage "Polaris". Now that Wang Zhongjun has come to Hong Kong, the most shocked are Run Run Shaw and Fang Yihua, because they believe that their biggest opponent may not be Zhou Hao.
, but Wang Zhongjun Wang Zhonglei who is hiding behind.
Putting down the thought of meeting Wang Zhongjun in the past, Run Run Shaw continued to return to this auction that would shock Hong Kong and even the country.
"No. 108 Polaris Group bids HK$3 billion. Is there anyone else bidding?" Kang Chuandeng asked loudly, but in his heart he hoped that the auction would end soon, because the jade unicorn is extremely valuable, and Christie's executives attach great importance to it.
, unwilling to have any accidents happen, Kang Chuandeng also just wanted to end the auction peacefully.
"Tch! He suppressed all of us in Hong Kong as soon as he came?" Liu Luanhong, who had not groaned for a long time, suddenly said, then he raised the sign in his hand, looked at Xu Jianming, Zhou Hao and others at the same table and sneered.
: "I'm just not convinced. It's not that I can't show it, so let me defend it for us Hong Kong people!"
"Aimego Company No. 3 bids 3 billion 10 million!" Kang Chuandeng shouted.
Following Kang Chuandeng's shout, everyone's eyes fell on Liu Luanhong, and many local wealthy people also applauded him, as if Liu Luanhong had really become a heroic representative of Hong Kong. Xu Jianming, who was sitting at the same table, was also impressed by Liu Luanhong's fierceness.
And Dongrong, even for a rich man like them, 3 billion Hong Kong dollars is not something that can be easily obtained.
"Mr. Liu is so heroic!" Zhou Hao also gave Liu Luanhong a thumbs up. At this time, Liu Luanhong truly showed his toughness and coldness as a sniper in the stock market.
Kang Chuandeng's voice sounded again: "Is there anyone else bidding?"
As before, the whole place was silent. Although they admired and supported Liu Luanhong, and were excited by Liu Luanhong's courage to stand up for Hong Kong, after all, they are not the kind of real art collectors. Spending three billion to buy one piece cannot be a living meal.
Jade that cannot be spent as money or for temporary anger is really not worth it.
"Thirty-one billion." Wang Zhongjun raised the racket again and said calmly in Mandarin. That look made people feel that what he wanted to buy was just a big cabbage.
The muscles at the corner of Liu Luanhong's mouth twitched fiercely. He raised his hand and raised his hand to 100 million, which made him feel cold. But now that he has come forward, there is absolutely no turning back. Besides, in this case, he
You must not let yourself lose your momentum, otherwise how will you be able to raise your head in this circle in the future?
So he could only bite the bullet and raised the sign with determination, and said at the same time: "Thirty-two billion!"
"Thirty-three billion."
"Thirty-four billion!"
"Thirty-five billion."
"Three.6 billion!"......
When the bidding for the jade unicorn climbed to HK$3.9 billion, Liu Luanhong's eyes were already red, like a wolf that chooses people to devour. He knew that if he continued like this, he really couldn't bear it.
.
The hearts of other rich people present were beating very fast. Seeing such crazy bidding, they also felt it was too exciting. They couldn't imagine how much pressure it would be if they were the ones holding the placards.
Especially for Zhou Qiyao and the others, the small jade unicorn on the stage is already twice their total net worth. Only now do they know what a truly rich person is.
At this point, local rich people all know that Liu Luanhong has tried his best, because at this time, Wang Zhongjun's expression, let alone his actions, did not change at all. God knows where his bottom line is.
Xu Jianming patted Liu Luanhong on the shoulder and persuaded: "Liu, forget it, no one will blame you."
Hearing Xu Jianming's words, Liu Luanhong sighed deeply and his shoulders drooped.
In the end, the jade unicorn was bought by Wang Zhongjun at an unprecedented price of 3.9 billion, which shocked the whole of Hong Kong, and the name "Polaris" was completely engraved in their hearts.
"Dear viewers in front of the TV, tonight's 'Thousands of Stars Show Love' has come to an end." The host on the stage said to the camera: "We have gained a lot tonight, in addition to contributing to charity.
In addition to his love, he also witnessed an unprecedented auction, with the total value of the auction items exceeding
It has exceeded HK$5 billion. Among them, the jade unicorn purchased by Polaris Group for HK$3.9 billion has set a new world auction record. I believe that no one will be able to break it for a long time in the future. Next, we invite Wang Zhongjun
Mr. Wang came up to the stage to share his experience with us. Please invite Mr. Wang Zhongjun!"
In fact, TVB did not tell Wang Zhongjun beforehand that he would be invited to take the stage. This was undoubtedly another case of killing first and showing off later.
Zhou Hao turned to look at Run Run Shaw and saw him sitting there drinking tea with a normal expression, and had no intention of arguing with him.
Wang Zhongjun also took the stage gracefully. This was also his first appearance in front of the Hong Kong people.
The host asked him: "Mr. Wang, I heard that your Polaris Group is now the largest media and entertainment company in China. What do you think of the development of our media industry in Hong Kong?"
"To say that our 'Polaris' is the largest media company in the country is really an award." Wang Zhongjun smiled and said: "There are many powerful domestic entertainment companies and TV stations. As a latecomer, we, 'Polaris', need to improve and learn from
There are still many places. Hong Kong's media industry is internationally renowned and is developing faster than that in China. I am deeply shocked by Hong Kong's media and entertainment industry and firmly believe that it will develop even better in the future."
"Thank you Mr. Wang for your support of our Hong Kong media." The host smiled politely and said: "By the way, your company invested a huge sum of money to buy the jade unicorn this time..."
Suddenly, the host pressed the earphone, then his face changed, but he soon returned to his smile, and asked Wang Zhongjun: "Mr. Wang, I just received news that your Polaris Group acquired Asia Television a year ago.
company, is this true?”
The host's words immediately shocked everyone, and also solved the public's long-standing doubts about the acquirer of the Asian market.
Wang Zhongjun didn't hesitate much and said with a frank smile: "Yes, it's true. Our 'Polaris' is the parent company of Asia Television Co., Ltd."
"But, wasn't this jade unicorn donated by Asia Television? Why did your company invest in buying it back? Is this also your company's publicity plan? To increase your company's visibility?"
Zhou Hao looked at Run Run Shaw again. The host publicly revealed on the stage that "Polaris" was the acquirer of ATV. It was clearly instigated by Run Run Shaw and Fang Yihua. The purpose was to discredit "Polaris"'s motivation for participating in the auction.
It is a habit of many wealthy people to spend money to buy back auction items that they have only seen before, but once these things are made public in front of the public, the taste will be completely different.
I saw that Run Run Shaw and Fang Yihua still had the same expressions as usual, as if they were not aware of Zhou Hao's gaze. Liu Luanhong, Xu Jianming and the others were also laughing secretly in their hearts, thinking that Run Run Shao, this old fox, would use his soft knife one after another.
, and will not give up until the enemy is put to death.
On the stage, facing everyone in the audience and several cameras pointed at him, Wang Zhongjun still did not lose his composure and smiled calmly: "Actually, the process of this matter is not important, because our purpose is just to
There is no need to doubt that we are doing good deeds. After all, if we had not donated the HK$3.9 billion in truth, the first person who would not let us go would be the Christie's auction house. They have never done a loss-making business."
