The next day, every citizen was preparing for the Spring Festival, but the top executives in the film industry suddenly became busy. For Zou Wenhuai, he had invited many reporters from the media to come, and he wanted to announce that Golden Harvest would significantly increase his salary.
Regarding the matter, we also want to announce that Golden Harvest will invest in ten major productions worth more than 40 million yuan this year.
One minute before nine o'clock, Zou Wenhuai walked into Jiahe's headquarters. He always appreciated this advantage and was punctual. However, when he entered the company, he suddenly found that the employees' expressions were very strange and some were difficult to understand.
Described as weird and sad.
Zou Wenhuai thought something had happened to an employee. His heart suddenly tightened and he returned to the office in a hurry. In the office, He Guanchang was waiting for Zou Wenhuai with a pale face. In addition, there were several other company pillars with expressions on their faces.
They are all extremely pale.
"What happened?" Zou Wenhuai felt that goosebumps were about to appear on his skin, and he felt a chill all over his body. These people in front of him are all senior executives of the company, and they cannot be so nervous about a small matter. Moreover, he also has a kind of
I have an unknown premonition that this incident may have been caused by the Phantom.
"Phantom just held a press conference for the media two minutes ago..." He Guanchang looked extremely bleak and replied in a tone that was almost garbled in sleep: "It was announced that Phantom has officially entered Jiahe!"
Although it was not the first time they heard the news, the other senior executives still felt the pain of having their hearts tightened. Zou Wenhuai was stunned for a moment. He was completely stunned, with unbelievable shock on his face.
: "Phantom doesn't hold a controlling stake in the company at all, so why does he take over the company?"
"Qingtian Company is absolutely controlled by Phantom, which means it controls Toei Company and 25% of the company's equity!" He Guanchang wanted to cry. He and these old friends around him have worked hard for more than ten years.
In this way, they became someone else's possession overnight, and they were all making wedding dresses for others.
"But, even so, they only control part of the company's equity. We don't need to be afraid of them at all!" Zou Wenhuai was extremely shocked, and his mind quickly turned away. When did Xiao Ran acquire Qingtian? But he also quickly
He calmed down and asked questions. After all, he was a veteran of the mall.
"Shimodian Company, twenty-five controlled by Shimodian Company..." He Guanchang couldn't continue. He knew that Xiao Ran had a plan, but he didn't expect Xiao Ran to move so fast.
"Shimodian Company..." Zou Wenhuai's whole body became cold. He felt his heart beating violently, and beads of sweat on his forehead were as big as broad beans. "Is there something wrong with Shimodian Company?"
"The equity in Shimodian Company was sold to Xiao Ran, and now Jiahe has fallen into Xiao Ran's hands!" He Guanchang shouted with pain and sadness: "Old Zou, I talked to Xiao Ran yesterday. If you didn't plan to deal with him, he would
We won’t touch Jiahe at all. Why do you insist on having your own way! Now the company we created will become someone else’s, and now you are happy!”
"How... how is it possible..." Zou Wenhuai felt as if his heart was about to jump out of his chest, beating at an extremely fast speed: "But I investigated before the financing, and it is Tianxia Investment Fund that controls Shimoda's equity!"
"Mr. Zou, yes, it is indeed Tianxia Investment Fund!" Xiao Ran and Wei Dongling appeared in this already crowded office with relaxed and happy steps. Strangely, there were several unrelated people behind them.
After scanning all the Jiahe executives in the room, Xiao Ran put his hands behind his back and stared proudly at Zou Wenhuai, who was holding his heart. He said word by word: "Yesterday afternoon, I reached an agreement with Tianxia Fund. They decided to sell the Jiahe equity of Shimodian Company and reorganize it.
Shimoda Company!”
Conspiracy! Everything is a conspiracy! Just when Zou Wenhuai's heart was hurting more and more, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration and figured it all out. He rushed towards Xiao Ran with all his strength and roared: "This is a conspiracy
, has always been a yin..."
The words that shook the room suddenly stopped. Zou Wenhuai's body fell softly to the ground, with his hand still holding his heart. It was obvious that he had a heart attack. Just when his head was about to hit the ground, Xiao Ran's hands and feet moved neatly.
He stood up and said to a few unrelated people behind him: "It's your turn now!"
Then he turned to He Guanchang and explained: "Mr. Zou has a heart disease. I was afraid that he would not be able to bear this blow, so I asked a doctor to come over in time."
He Guanchang and other senior executives immediately smiled bitterly and were confused... What kind of person was this Xiao Ran? He had worked so hard to force Zou Wenhuai onto this road, and even brought the doctor to prevent Zou Wenhuai from dying. They were really confused.
, are there really such kind-hearted people in the shopping mall?
Xiao Ran glanced at the week with a serious look and said softly: "I admire Mr. Zou for being able to lead you to knock down Shaw Brothers and create an almost successful Hong Kong film dynasty. Unfortunately, from the perspective of a competitor, I have to defeat you.
, but I don’t want Mr. Zou to die because of this!”
These words once again made He Guanchang and the others smile bitterly. Even they themselves were confused about what happened today. But they can be sure that Xiao Ran, who originally seemed so hateful, is no longer hateful at all, because
They are both businessmen and understand that Xiao Ran's words are sincere.
Few people can feel resentment towards a sincere person. Xiao Ran stared at He Guanchang, with a stern look in his eyes: "Mr. He, I demand that the board of directors be convened immediately!"
The board of directors! This means that Xiao Ran must immediately take control of Jiahe. In fact, he has already obtained it, but he still lacks a name. There are quite a few people on Jiahe's board of directors, but they are all high-level officials within the company. Among them
Also included are Cheng Long and Hong Jinbao.
The news spread quickly, and everyone present now knew that Phantom had taken over Jiahe, so it was not surprising that the two Phantom giants, Xiao Ran and Wei Dongling, were present.
Looking at the people sitting around the oval table, Xiao Ran and Wei Dongling looked at each other and saw the desire for victory in each other's eyes. Wei Dongling no longer doubted that Xiao Ran could control Jiahe, and now he even suspected that everything was Xiao Ran's.
Strategy.
Wei Dongling's guess was correct, but there were luck and other factors involved. Originally, Xiao Ran and Wei Dongling did have a plan for Jiahe, but that plan was a business plan for Jiahe with a lot of debt. However, when Xiao Ran got
When he learned that Jiahe was looking for a financing partner, he was immediately moved.
The Xiatian Company was originally a company that was forcibly acquired by Tianxia Fund and planned to be split up and sold. Just before preparations were made, Rong Xiaoyi received a notice from Xiao Ran, asking them to suspend the split plan and help him take down Jiahe.
Therefore, Rong Xiaoyi asked Shimodian Company to proactively contact Jiahe, and finally won 25% of the equity at a contract price of 3 billion. Qingtian Company was completely coincidental. At that time, Fang Xiaoqiang had not completed the acquisition of Qingtian.
However, Dongying actually tried to invade the Hong Kong market and took the initiative, which was exactly what Xiao Ran wanted.
Everything is extremely simple, but there is also a lot of luck in it. In fact, even if he does not control Dongying, Xiao Ran can still achieve the purpose of controlling Jiahe. As long as he is willing to make concessions to Dongying in certain places, Dongying will definitely be willing to follow suit.
He cooperated.
It is no exaggeration to say that Jiahe has always been in Xiao Ran's sight, and all Zou Wenhuai did was just a desperate struggle. Perhaps it cannot be said that if Zou Wenhuai did not take the initiative to seek financing and brought in reinforcements to try to deal with Phantom, Xiao Ran would definitely not
He knows Jiahe. After all, he is also full of affection for this company. Many of the films he enjoyed as a boy were produced by this company.
In any case, although Xiao Ran's victory this time took a lot of trouble, there was also a huge profit to be made amidst the setbacks. After the split and sale of Shimodian and Qingtian, at least he can earn at least 600 million Hong Kong dollars for Tianxia and Phantom each.
, and also captured the center of the turmoil, which is worth thousands of dollars.
However, for Xiao Ran now, what he enjoys more is the voice at this moment. He likes the feeling of being looked up to, which makes him have the illusion of being an emperor standing on a high place.
Regarding the directors here, Xiao Ran only said a concise sentence: "From now on, Jiahe will stop all business and start rectification and reorganization immediately!"
At the end of the meeting, He Guanchang ran out and called Xiao Ran, saying with a painful expression: "Mr. Xiao, can you please not split up the company?"
"Uncle He, I understand how you feel." Of course Xiao Ran understood. If the Phantom was about to be split up, he would probably be in pain to death: "But you know very well that Jiahe is no longer good. In many systems,
We can’t keep up with the times. If you want to make a difference, you have to do something!”
"I know, but this doesn't need to be split up!" He Guanchang is really sharp-eyed. Xiao Ran only mentioned the rectification and reorganization before he realized the spin-off and sale trick: "Besides, Jiahe will definitely be able to strengthen Phantom, I think you will definitely
Need it badly!"
"You are wrong..." Xiao Ran suddenly turned around and stared at He Guanchang proudly: "Jiahe is absolutely of no use to Phantom. The only reason I want to control Jiahe is to stop Mr. Zou from causing trouble with me."
Xiao Ran really does not need Jiahe, and Phantom's current momentum far does not need Jiahe to set off. Moreover, Xiao Ran has now taken over Toei Company, which means that he has successfully opened the Japanese market, which is a real opening. The whole of Asia,
No one can stop the Phantom anymore.
"Perhaps you can tell Mr. Zou for me!" Xiao Ran smiled slightly, a very magnanimous smile: "As long as I am willing, I can make every word I say become a rule, and no one dares to violate it!"
He Guanchang stared blankly at the retreating figures of Xiao Ran and Wei Dongling. He suddenly felt that time and space had completely reversed. He and Zou Wenhuai had such grand ambitions at the beginning. However, as people get older, it is always difficult to forge ahead.
Now Jiahe has fallen into Xiao Ran's hands, and it is Xiao Ran who makes the rules. However, Xiao Ran and Phantom are more qualified to say this than they and Jiahe. Isn't it? He stared at the
The young figure gradually disappeared, and I thought: Maybe when he leaves, the era of unification of Hong Kong films will come.
In the early years, Shaw Brothers failed to achieve unification. At first, Lu Yuntao, a very talented and ambitious boss, supported the sky of Dianfan and stood side by side with the Shaw Brothers. However, Lu Yuntao was unfortunately lost in a plane crash.
Without his life, the Dianfan Dynasty collapsed.
Subsequently, Cathay Pacific, founded by Li Hanxiang, who also rebelled against Shaw Brothers, also attacked Shaw Brothers for several years. But when Cathay Pacific finally couldn't support it, Golden Harvest appeared. Shaw Brothers has never unified Hong Kong movies. It has always been a fight between infighting and hard work.
Yes. The Phantom currently led by Xiao Ran is destined to unify the Hong Kong film industry. It has been doomed since Xiao Ran defeated the veteran powerhouse Jiahe.
For Wei Dongling, he admired Xiao Ran very much. He admired Xiao Ran for being able to lead Phantom to where it is today. In just a few years, it unified the Hong Kong film industry and even became the largest and most influential film company in Southeast Asia. Although
His contribution was definitely very large, but he still admired Xiao Ran.
From Xiao Ran's point of view, all this is just a game. It is really too easy to win Jiahe. He even misses the time when he competed with Fang Ruohai. Emotionally, he likes the feeling of having a strong opponent.
.Rationally, he told himself that it would be best to be able to control everything.
Years later, Zou Wenhuai completely withdrew from Jiahe. All of Jiahe's businesses were split and sold, and its distribution contract and the lease of the land were swallowed up by Phantom. From this, Phantom only made tens of millions in profit, but the value of the distribution contract it received
But extremely high.
What’s interesting is that Lei Kaitai showed up again. This time he came to Xiao Ran with more than one billion in cash. In the end, in order to have an assistant like Debao, Xiao Ran decided to sell part of Jiahe’s distribution rights to Lei Kaitai
.
During the Lantern Festival, Lei Kaitai fully acquired Jiahe's production and distribution business and changed its name to Taihang Film Company. A generation of veteran strongmen finally collapsed with great fanfare on this day of universal celebration, leaving behind a completely new generation of film companies.
The media is very interesting in calling the current situation in the film industry the "Phantom Chariot and Three Musketeers Era". The Phantom has naturally become the leader of the Hong Kong film industry, followed closely by Deborah Tan Lo and Tai Hang, and The Three Musketeers.
The Three Musketeers who rely on the Phantom.
At the same time, there was also a shock in the Japanese film industry. Phantom entered Toei with a strong attitude. After selling off various unrelated businesses of Toei, it finally fully controlled Toei and became a subsidiary of Phantom. And Qingtian and
Shimoda was ruthlessly sold by Momentum and Tianxia Fund, and ultimately made a total profit of more than one billion.
The Phantom Era is coming! But is it really coming? It may not be as smooth as we expected...
