"What date is it today?"
"December 3rd. Is there a problem?”
Wu Haoshen calculated the time. It was really about time. Hua Cheng was originally scheduled to go public in June 2008, which would be in time for the Kyoto Olympics that would start on August 8th. Under normal circumstances, this would be a foreseeable bull market, which would allow them to cash in at a high price and make a fortune.
However, an accident happened on the eve of the listing. Guo Jinghua teamed up with the boss of Morning Sky, Wu Kebo, and directly emptied half of Hua Cheng. The originally star-studded Hua Cheng instantly became an empty shell, leaving only two or three big cats, such as Li Xiaolan, Huang Xiaoming, and the others. The only one who could still be used was Feng Xiaogang.
Under such circumstances, it was impossible for it to be listed, so it was postponed for a year. Finally, on October 30, 2009, as the first batch of stocks listed on the Growth Enterprise Market, it was listed on the Growth Enterprise Market from the main board. Only then did the stock price legend of Huacheng begin.
Previously, Wu Haoshen thought that because of his intervention, Huacheng would be able to escape this disaster. He did not expect that the inertia of history would be so strong. Although the defection was delayed, it would still appear. Zhao Haoran was still as unreliable as ever.
"What did the studio say?"
"I didn't think too much about it before. After all, her contract with Hua Cheng hasn't ended yet, and it takes time to prepare for the studio. She didn't have much of an opinion about the rent before, but now it seems that she's deliberately dragging us down.”
Wu Haoshen glared at Li Xue and said,"The role is a reward for her earlier. I, Wu Haoshen, will keep my word. Since I said I would give it to her, I definitely won't go back on my word. I know about this. Just keep an eye on Sis Hua for the time being. You don't have to worry about anything else.”
Sis Hua was secretly contacting the big shots in the industry who had worked with her for a long time, especially those who were very famous. Many of them were dissatisfied with Wu Haoshen, the genius director who had suddenly appeared.
Firstly, it was because Wu Haoshen was the head of the Hong Kong industry. Secondly, it was because Wu Haoshen had limited respect for them. Thirdly, like those uncultured directors and screenwriters in the Hong Kong industry, they liked to make fun of the traditional culture of the mainland and ruin good things.
In the eyes of these seniors, the same investment, the same lineup, and a proper filming could still be a huge success. Doing these flashy and sensational things was destined to be a failure in the end, so these people were waiting to see Wu Haoshen make a fool of himself.
Wu Kebo was currently in Xiangjiang City. It was only a step in his plan to dig out Hua Cheng and step on Hua Cheng's corpse. He did not have absolute trust in Guo Jinghua.
He knew a woman like Guo Jinghua very well. Strictly speaking, Hua Cheng and the Big and Little Wang brothers had done nothing wrong to her. However, because of her short-sightedness, she did not choose to support the Big and Little Wang and the company at the critical moment.
Now that Hua Cheng was about to go public, those who had stood up to support it previously would have a huge amount of shares in their hands. Their wealth would immediately soar and they would become shareholders of the company from wage earners.
As the third-in-command of the company, it would be strange if Guo Jinghua didn't feel uncomfortable or resentful. It was just like those who had tried their best to go abroad early on, but suddenly found out that the foreign country was not as good as their own country after ten or twenty years. The money they had earned abroad for half their lives couldn't even afford the old and broken clothes they sold when they went abroad. They would immediately lose their mentality and become anti-China pioneers.
Guo Jinghua was now the vanguard of the anti-China war. She could not wait to make Huacheng bankrupt and make the celebrity shareholders who had previously stood on the side of Huacheng lose their capital. Only then could she prove that Sister Hua was right. She was the one with the best vision.
Wu Kebo had cleverly borrowed Guo Jinghua's mentality. He had promised great profits and used a method that no one had expected. In one breath, he had become the number one industry giant in the mainland.
Now, he was taking another step. What he wanted was not only the mainland, but also the Hong Kong and Taiwan region. Therefore, he chose Jiahe, the former overlord of the Hong Kong circle, to acquire Jiahe. Not only the copyright in Jiahe's hands, but also the entire legacy of Jiahe.
"Mr. Zou, I think my offer is very reasonable. We've been talking about it for about a year. Please tell me why you haven't made a decision yet.”
Zou Wenhuai was not short of money. As an old man, he could tell that Wu Kebo's shares were definitely more than what was on the surface. This guy should have already become the largest shareholder.
However, what he really wanted was more than 70% of the shares. He wanted Jiahe to be delisted and reorganized its assets before going public. By then, it might not necessarily be in Xiangjiang, but even in the mainland or North America.
Looking at his daughter who was in the film industry, Zou Wenhuai asked Wu Kebo directly,""Can you tell me your plan? Money has never been the most important thing. I don't need this 200 million. I want to know how you plan to deal with Jiahe.”
Wu Kebo naturally had his own arrangements for Jiahe. Compared to investing in movies and TV shows, he was best at asset restructuring.
In his calculations, after acquiring Jiahe and hollowing out Huacheng, the reorganized Chentian could directly apply for the mainland's Growth Enterprise Market. After some capital operation, its assets would instantly soar and become the number one film and television stock in the entire Chinese entertainment industry.
Wu Kebo was very clear about the influence of the Hong Kong industry in the mainland. He was also very clear about the reputation of Jiahe, who had dominated the Chinese entertainment industry for nearly half a century. That was why he came up with this trilogy. After the trilogy, he would become the overlord of the Chinese entertainment industry that was on par with Emperor.
Wu Kebo, who believed that no one could see through his plan, would never have thought that Wu Haoshen was so clear about his plan. He was even very clear about the two most serious loopholes in his trilogy. It could be said that Wu Kebo and Chen Tian's downfall was due to these two fatal loopholes.
Therefore, Wu Haoshen was not in a hurry to make a move. Instead, he clenched his fists and continued to accumulate strength and develop. He took advantage of the biggest earthquake in the mainland entertainment industry to develop and grow. He made a move at the critical moment to reap the fruits of victory and become the real winner.
After a heated debate, Wu Kebo finally bought 24.78% of Jiahe Group's shares and bonds owned by Zou Wenhuai and his daughter at a price of 273 million Hong Kong dollars. The actual proportion of shares in his hands was more than 60%, which was only one step away from 70% of the shares being delisted.
After him, the second largest shareholder of Jiahe was the current richest man, Li Jiacheng. Therefore, the part behind Wu Kebo was not easy to get. He had to plan slowly.
Wu Haoshen saw this news on the third day after the filming started. He also noticed that Zhao Huanhuan had become much colder to him and was no longer as enthusiastic as before.
After all, no matter how good he was, he was just a director. He was far inferior to the Big and Little Wang brothers. Wu Kebo was a ruthless person who had bought Jiahe and directly emptied out Huacheng.
It could be said that when Huacheng encountered major changes, many laymen who were not very discerning almost regarded Wu Kebo as the new king of the Chinese entertainment industry. They felt that he was the strongest overlord of this industry.
Unfortunately, they had underestimated the mainland industry. The power to import films was in the hands of China Power. If China Power did not allow them to do so, any Hollywood blockbusters would be useless.
Hollywood blockbusters were the cash cows of many cinemas. Many cinemas relied on stealing the box office of Hollywood movies to survive. Many of the high-level maggots of the cinemas relied on this to make money.
China Power was still the largest physical cinema giant and the most well-connected and wealthy film and television production company. If they could not get the support of China Power, they would even go against China Power. No matter how big their advantage was now, was it meaningful?
I won't even let you film your movie, or I'll crazily steal your box office earnings, and I'll suppress you in all sorts of ways. I'll be able to suffocate you to death in a few years.
