Chapter 2134 Officially established
This is the difference between Caotai team and regular companies.
In the past, if Chu Heng had any ideas, he could just get involved and do it directly. But that is no longer possible. Although he is the actual owner of the company, if he wants to implement any decisive things, he still needs the CEO of Martin. Only the official's cooperation will do.
If there is a conflict of ideas between the two people and Martin disagrees with his decision-making, there are usually only two results, either mandatory execution, which will most likely cause Martin to be dissatisfied and then leave.
Either replace it with someone who is obedient.
And neither of these is what Chu Heng wants to see. How can he let go of the big housekeeper he spent so much effort to find?
So he had already prepared a draft on how to persuade Martin to implement his idea on the way here. When Martin asked about it, he immediately started gesticulating.
“Since I became interested in the Hong Kong Island film market, I have briefly learned about the box office of Hong Kong Island local movies in the past few years.
If we only count the top ten box office, the year before last It was more than nine million, last year it was more than ten million, although this year it was just It was more in the past quarter, but if you look at the box office of a single film, it should also exceed last year.
And I believe this situation has occurred in East Asia, Southeast Asia, and even many countries in Asia. You know what this means. What?”
Martin's eyes narrowed slightly, and a streak of light flashed across the lenses of his gold glasses: "People's lives are getting better, and they are beginning to demand entertainment!"
"That's right!"
< br>Chu Heng loved chatting with smart people like this without any effort at all. He smiled and clapped his hands and said: "The war has been over for more than 20 years. After such a long period of cultivation, most countries, including Hong Kong Island, The economy is moving from recovery to prosperity, especially Xiba and Baga, who have adopted Citi as their father. Under their leadership, neighboring countries have also begun to enter the fast lane. "
" As people's material conditions improve, they will naturally start pursuing spiritual entertainment. "
"And movies are an important piece of the puzzle."
"I very much agree with your view." Martin nodded in agreement, then spread his hands and asked puzzledly: "But why do you want to invest in the film market on Hong Kong Island? How big is it here? Invest in Baga or West Isn’t eight better?”
“Because Creativity and acceptance.”
Chu Heng tapped the coffee table with his finger and said: “Hong Kong Island filmmakers are very creative, and because of the long-term influence of Chinese civilization on East Asian countries, other countries have The acceptance of Hong Kong movies is very high; This advantage is currently not available in other countries and is very conducive to overseas distribution."
"Listen to what you said, Hong Kong Island is indeed very suitable." As a Westerner, Martin nodded in understanding. Then he thought about it and said: "As for investment, I think we should try not to invest by ourselves. It is best to find someone or a company in the film and television industry to cooperate. Firstly, we do not understand the film and television industry, and secondly, we can share the risks."
"Your ideas are with me. I agree." Chu Heng smiled slightly when he heard this.
Martin raised his head and looked at him, and a smile slowly appeared on his lips.
“Chrissy!”
They both spoke in unison.
“I’m going to find someone to do market research. The results will be available in two days at the latest. If there’s no problem, I’ll contact Chrissy. That money-grubbing wolf will definitely not let this opportunity go. "Martin also has a resolute character. He immediately stood up, grabbed the phone and called his assistant, asking him to come over immediately.
After a while, a burly white man walked in. He was Haige, his right-hand man in the team he used to work at EM Company. Chu Heng also had a lot of contact with him. Currently, he is working in Served as assistant to the president in the company.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Chu."
"Hello, Haig."
After greeting, Haig looked at Martin: "What's the matter? Head."
"There is something urgent for you to do. Man, you need to immediately organize people to investigate the film and television market on Hong Kong Island and surrounding countries, and make an assessment of the prospects of the film and television industry on Hong Kong Island. Within two days, I will I want to see the most professional assessment, can it be done?" Martin said.
Haig only took a second to think about it, then nodded and said: "No problem, sir, but you need to pay me more for the cost, because time is too tight and some additional expenses are required. ”
"Okay, you go and make a report right away."
"Okay." Haig turned and left in a hurry like a gust of wind.
Seeing this, Chu Heng reminded Martin: "Don't forget Cathay Pacific. You can have someone contact you first. Don't let others get in first."
"Please. Don't worry, Chu." Martin adjusted his glasses, with a confident and unruly expression on his face, and smiled: "If I want to acquire Cathay, no one can stop it, not even God!"
"Haha, okay, I'll leave this matter to you." Chu Heng was delighted when he heard this. As an old friend, he believed Martin's words, including every punctuation mark.
Then he paid more attention to the situation of the new company and chatted for almost half an hour before coming out of the Golden Horse Building.
"Do you want to go back? Mr. Chu?"
Downstairs of the building, He Yixing saw Chu Heng coming out and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Do you want to go home? Mr. Chu?"< br>
“Uh…”
Chu Heng touched the two business cards in his arms, rolled his eyes slightly, and said, "You guys go back first. I have something to do, so just let Cen Hao accompany me."
"Okay. "
He Yixing turned around to explain to others, and soon they left in two cars.
Cen Hao, who was left alone, asked curiously: "What are we going to do? Master Chu."
"Wait for me to make two phone calls."
Chu Heng took out his business card and walked to a public phone booth not far away. After a while, he came back with a smile on his face and waved his hand: "Du Laozhi, let's go, I will show you something high-end today!"
...
Two days passed quickly.
Haig also submitted the investigation report and evaluation report to Martin's desk as scheduled, just as he promised.
No need to say more about the result, just four words.
The prospects are promising!
After getting the report, Martin immediately contacted Chrissy, the mop guy. The grandson’s reaction was just as Chu Heng and Martin had guessed. It took only half an hour to think about it and agreed. We agreed to cooperate and bought a ticket on the same day, and will come to discuss it in person soon.
Afterwards, Martin gathered people intensively and assigned the work of acquiring Cathay Pacific and establishing a film and television company in partnership with Chrissy. Then he let it go and continued to be busy with the establishment of the new company.
Just like this, another two days passed, and the application submitted by Martin and the others to the Hong Kong government for the establishment of a group company was finally approved, which also announced the official establishment of Chu Heng's new company.
He named the new company Daimus Group. The shares were held by two other offshore companies under his name, with a registered capital of HK$30 million. The main business was equity for the time being. Investment and asset management, its subsidiaries include Parkview Properties, Mandarin Hotel Group, etc.
The participating companies include Borgward Automobile, Blue Oak Pictures, and Hongxiang Pipe.
The total valuation is HK$980 million, which is approximately US$170 million.
“Where did this Hongxiang Pipe come from?”
In the office of the president of Jinma Building, Chu Heng looked at the information in his hand blankly, why did a man suddenly appear without saying a word? A factory valued at tens of millions?
“Have you forgotten?” Martin said speechlessly: “When we helped you acquire the Mandarin Hotel, suddenly you entrusted us to invest in this factory that was on the verge of bankruptcy. At that time, we didn’t think much of it. I made an investment, but I didn’t expect it to come back to life and develop well.”
