Hong Kong's new giants

Lin Zuhui said to Liang Zhenxun: "The company will donate 3000 million yuan to East China!"

Liang Zhenxun asked: "Will it be a little less?"

He knows the style of the boss and the importance he attaches to the mainland market, so he reminds him!

Lin Zuhui said seriously: "After all, this is the money of shareholders. After all, it is my honor to donate it. It is obviously unfair! The other three listed companies under my umbrella are each 1000 million, and the total is 6000 million. Donations. This amount of donations, no consortium department in Xiangjiang should be able to come up with it!"

Only then did Liang Zhenxun realize that the boss's other three major groups are also quite large, and with a total of 6000 million funds, they can indeed rank among the top in Xiangjiang.

"Okay, I'll prepare right away!"

Lin Zuhui nodded. In fact, of course he is more than this donation. He personally plans to donate 2 million Hong Kong dollars, a total of 2.6 million donations.

This amount is already very large. In the previous life, Li Chaoren’s Changshi Department donated 5000 million, and the personal donation is unknown (maybe not); in the previous life, Xiangjiang’s largest personal donation was He Yingjie, that is, the family of the tobacco company and the He family who represented Marlboro. He Yingjie donated the amount 1 million.

Lin Zuhui is the richest man in Xiangjiang, and his stock wealth is twice that of No.2, so he must also be generous.

Originally, his donation in the first half of this year was not much, so it happened to make up for it this time; and in the second half of this year, Lin Zuhui also planned to go to Shanghai to donate 5000 million to Aurora University. This donation is to warm up the investment in Shanghai Lin Zuhui will spend another 5000 million yuan to continue supporting the education industry in Sichuan and Sichuan. In the future, he will help Sichuan and Sichuan through his mouth, because he has his own "charitable foundation", so there is a certain guarantee for the implementation of funds.

Donating more than 3 million yuan this year, it can be regarded as maintaining his reputation as a "philanthropist"!

In fact, his help in the development of the mainland is far more than that. His retail group purchases about 10 billion Hong Kong dollars in materials in the mainland every year, and the shipping company has built two ships in the mainland (supporting the mainland shipbuilding industry). Towel factories (exclusively for export) and so on, the support has been in all aspects, and it is no longer limited to donations.

As for investment, needless to say, his LEIT Group has as many as 5000 workers in the Mainland.

……

Lin Zuhui came to Xiangjiang News Agency immediately and donated 2.6 million funds.

The president of Xinshe had a very happy expression on his face. The amount of money was too large, and Lin Zuhui, as the most influential Chinese in Hong Kong, had set a great example.

"Mr. Lin, thank you so much, I would like to say thank you on behalf of the disaster victims and the government!"

"You are welcome! As a son and daughter of China, I believe Xiangjiang and overseas compatriots are doing the same thing as me."

The president of Xinshe nodded. He was very happy and touched by Lin Zuhui's statement, because Lin Zuhui is a media tycoon in Hong Kong. As long as he helps, the whole of Hong Kong can lend a helping hand.

Of course, Lin Zuhui sometimes resists the pressure from the mainland, and has the principle of not interfering too much with the media under his banner.This is a very helpless question for him. After all, if he really intervenes too much, complaint letters from the public will soon flood in. At that time, he may even be forced to quit Wanhui Media and Asia Satellite TV.

His principle is that among the media in Hong Kong, the issue of standing in line is quite satisfactory (that is, the freedom of news is not interfered by external forces).Only serious problems will he intervene, that is, continue to behave moderately.From Lin Zuhui's point of view, in his previous life, Xiangjiang was finished with only one paper media, and that was under the banner of Fat Li, and his one was too crazy.Therefore, Lin Zuhui firmly believes that what he has done is enough to show his favor to the mainland.After all, Xiangjiang's media is more aggressive towards that side.

"Mr. Lin's contribution to the motherland is really too great!"

"President Wang can understand my difficulties in the future. I personally fully believe in and support the mainland government, and I am also optimistic about the future development of the mainland!"

"Of course, we fully understand Mr. Lin's attitude towards the media under his banner. Mr. Lin's actions are very much in line with international practices!"

"That's good!"

The president of Xinshe has long been familiar with Lin Zuhui's style, and the mainland's top management is also quite wooing Lin Zuhui, so as long as Lin Zuhui does not target maliciously, there will be no pressure from the mainland now.

The next day.

The news that Lin Zuhui led his four listed groups to donate 2.6 million was quickly spread through the official newspapers in the mainland, and then the British Hong Kong government allocated 5000 million Hong Kong dollars to help the disaster-stricken areas in East China, and Hong Kong immediately set off an upsurge of donations to help the floods in East China.Regardless of whether it is the business community, Hong Kong performing arts circle, or Hong Kong folks, they are all very positive about this donation.

Xiangjiang people are Chinese people. We have only come to Xiangjiang for decades, how can we forget our motherland!

As of July 7, in just ten days, Hong Kong has donated 23 million yuan.

And Lin Zuhui's company accounted for one-third, which can be said to be quite eye-catching, but this kind of thing is not afraid of being in the limelight.

Chapter 4 and Nine [Five-Year Plan]

Friday, April 8.

On the "Music Bank" program that night, the HOT group of five 18-20-year-old boys officially appeared.

Originally, this group planned to debut at the end of July, but in late July, Hong Kong's showbiz held fundraising activities such as "Great Performance" and "Banquet for Noble Family", and the music style of HOT group was obviously not suitable for the environment at that time.Therefore, YG Entertainment acted decisively and postponed the debut time of HOT group.

That night, the music style, costumes, and performances of the HOT group once again refreshed the cognition of the citizens of Xiangjiang. It can be summed up as singing, dancing, rap, and briskness.Many viewers remember this combination, and even fan circle culture has begun to sprout.

the next morning.

Lin Zuhui held a discussion meeting at YG Entertainment, aiming to speed up the development of 'Hong Kong Stream'.

"I am going to ask ATV to invest another 5000 million Hong Kong dollars in YG Entertainment. Next, we will double the size of the logistics team. The music department, dance department, clothing department, beauty department, overseas business development department, etc., will absorb new ideas for me. Talents come in, and then bring the old with the new, and turn the 'Hong Kong culture' into a big industry. YG Entertainment is positioned as an 'idol manufacturing factory'. The idol groups we create can develop in Japan and Taiwan... let They have become machines for us to earn foreign exchange, which is the ultimate goal of 'rejuvenating Hong Kong with Hong Kong culture'."

In order to cooperate with "Hong Kong's culture revitalizes Hong Kong", the LEIT Group established a clothing brand and a makeup brand more than a year ago.And soon, many companies in Hong Kong were envious of YG Entertainment and joined in the creation of "Hong Kong Stream Culture".

At that time, Hong Kong will really step into the big wave of "rejuvenating Hong Kong with Hong Kong culture".According to history, Bangziguo will have its own Hallyu after 1995.

Hong Kong is enough ahead of them by a 'five-year plan', then the Hallyu will always be regarded as a copycat of the 'Hong Kong Stream', and the grade will be much lower.

Yu Xiaoming nodded and said: "Our thinking has been on the right path, and the next step is to improve the quality. Better composition, lyrics, and better dance are especially important. To do this, one is to learn The experience of Europe, America and Japan, and the second is that I need to study more.”

People from the music department and dance department nodded one after another, approving Yu Xiaoming's opinion.

Lin Zuhui suggested again: "Some talented trainees and idols can compose, write, and choreograph themselves, so you can also pay attention!"

"Ok!"

This industrial chain is too big. Lin Zuhui only realized after doing it that Hong Kong is a tourist city. The tourists who come to Hong Kong in the future are all consumers of "Hong Kong culture". They will buy Hong Kong's cosmetics, clothes, and idol albums. and many more.

And Lin Zuhui has basically conveyed this concept and given enough support, I believe that the next is the time for rapid development.After all, Xiangjiang's entertainment industry itself is very developed. Perhaps TVB can imitate ATV and launch its own combination within half a year.

And next year, YG Entertainment will launch three groups, one is a three-member girl group, one is a six-member boy group, and the other is a mixed electronic music group.It is still Lin Zuhui who sets the development direction for all three combinations, because he already has a template in his heart.

Of course, Lin Zuhui is just copying some memories, to put it bluntly, they are all for reference.The real creation depends on the YG Entertainment team.

Almost in 1993, Xiangjiang's idol group produced the assembly line!

Xiangjiang's market is small, so these groups are pulled to Japan, Taiwan Island, Southeast Asia, South Korea, and the mainland to develop, and there are albums, concerts, announcements, and performances. In short, the purpose is to earn foreign exchange, not in Xiangjiang killed each other.

……

Simultaneously with "Prospering Hong Kong with Hong Kong Stream Culture", there is also "Prospering Hong Kong with Comics". Wanhui Publishing House's "Manke SHOW" has sold 15 copies in the shortest time.In the past month or so, "there is only one truth" has become the catchphrase of comic lovers.

The animation of "Detective Conan" will be broadcast on ATV in the second half of this month, and the sales of "Manke SHOW" will continue to rise.

The industry was a little confused by the sudden publication of the "Niman Series" serial comics by Wanhui Comics, but when they saw such an excellent work of "Detective Conan", everyone was stunned.Soon everyone realized that the vision of Wanhui Comics Club has been looking forward to the world, and it is no longer limited to the small Xiangjiang.

Wanhui Comics Club.

Lin Zuhui convened a meeting with high-level executives. The main content was to increase investment and deepen the layout of the comics industry chain.

"Manager Xiong, your toy factory is going to build a factory in the mainland right now, and the scale will be larger than that of Playstar Group."

Everyone was amazed, Color Star Group made a profit of 12 billion last year, it is the largest toy group in Hong Kong, of course the main profit comes from 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles'.

Akira Kumamoto has adapted quickly from being a boss to a manager, not to mention working for the most legendary businessman in Xiangjiang, which will not bury him as a billionaire.

Yes, Akira Kumamoto was the original boss of the toy company. After being acquired by Wanhui Comics, he took the initiative to recommend himself.Wanhui Comics Club decided to keep him, but still recruited many high-level and management staff, and expanded the scale of the entire toy factory.

At present, the dolls of Conan and Mao Lilan have started mass production, although only Xiangjiang sells them.

"Okay, I will prepare the proposal as soon as possible!" Akira Kumamoto said immediately.He did not doubt Lin Zuhui's vision, and admired Lin Zuhui very much.

Lin Zuhui nodded, and said: "We must have confidence in ourselves in everything, and our comic industry will definitely reach a new height!"

He doesn't worry about the investment being in vain. Wanhui Media has already made a lot of money in real estate, and can make more than 5 million yuan in its account every year. If it can't be paid out as dividends, the company will be ruined.

Moreover, since investors learned that Wanhui Media has strengthened its investment in the comics industry and acquired a toy factory and a Japanese animation production company, the stock has risen instead of falling and has become a popular stock in the market.They all believed that Lin Zuhui had the ability to "turn a stone into gold", and he had never seen a loss in investing in new fields.

Next, everyone discussed the advantages of the Japanese manga industry and learned from within the company.

In the final analysis, there are many manga talents in Japan. The so-called manga talents are not just talents in painting, but also talents in plots.Over the years, Wanhui Comic Club has also cultivated some comic talents, who are barely able to cope with the current work.

The talent in the plot, the biggest part is the choice of subject matter and background outline, and Lin Zuhui directly contributed two classic works.

Chapter 4 and Ten [Cultural copyright worth 3000 million US dollars]

Early December.

In the meeting room of ATV, we welcomed several distinguished guests—the management of NBC, NBC is the abbreviation of National Broadcasting Corporation of the United States, one of the three major commercial broadcasting companies in the United States (the other two are CBS, American Columbia Broadcasting Corporation) The full name of the company and ABC is the American Broadcasting Corporation).Headquartered in New York and established in 1926, it is the oldest and most powerful commercial radio and television company in the United States.

Lin Zuhui extended his hand enthusiastically, and said to a middle-aged Caucasian elite: "Welcome Mr. Andrew and his party to Xiangjiang!"

Andrew also stretched out his right hand, without the slightest arrogance in his eyes (NBC has hundreds of millions of viewers after all), but rather respected Lin Zuhui.

"Mr. Lin, you are a legendary businessman and a media tycoon in Asia!"

The management of ATV immediately felt elated and proud. What Andrew said was true, and the boss was an Asian media tycoon.

Who would have thought that the copyright of ATV's "Millionaire" was continuously purchased by ABC in the United States, the United Kingdom, Singapore, Taiwan Island, and Australia, with a total of 3200 million US dollars in copyright fees.

Now, NBC in the United States has taken a fancy to "The Voice of Chinese" and came to discuss the purchase of copyright matters.

In the past two years, NBC's competitor ABC has made a lot of money with "Who Is a Millionaire", earning nearly one million dollars in advertising fees for one episode.ABC even announced that the program "Who Is a Millionaire" is the most profitable TV program in its history.

So, how can NBC not be heartbroken, why not buy the copyright by itself!

And just when NBC was heartbroken, they noticed Little Xiangjiang, and Asia TV released another classic program. The TV station even publicly declared that this is the world's first "reality talent show" show, covering the global Chinese talent show event.

Lin Zuhui said modestly: "You have won the award, it is the hard work of all our colleagues! We all work together to produce excellent programs and contribute to the audience who have always supported us. Human beings have developed to this day, and material life has been basically satisfied, while spiritual life But it has been very scarce, so we are just bringing a little food for thought to our audience, that's all!"

For a moment, everyone in the conference room was stunned. Isn't everyone on the same level? This person's words are too noble!

"This proves that ATV is making programs with heart, which is worth learning from!" Andrew said in admiration.

He really admired it. When he came to Xiangjiang this time, he specially inspected ATV, a small industrial building that couldn't be smaller, but it could produce two world-class programs.Not only that, although it is only a TV station in a city of 600 million, it has 2000 million viewers, and the programs it produces have affected the entire Chinese circle.

After some politeness from both parties (mainly Lin Zuhui was being polite), everyone sat in the meeting room.

Andrew couldn't wait to say: "Mr. Lin, we NBC want to buy the copyright of "The Voice of China"!"

Lin Zuhui nodded and said: "Of course, we are very happy that Americans can also realize their dream of being a singer through "The Voice of America". This is a kind of spiritual transmission. Those who have dreams should bravely pursue them! The value of this show is as simple as that."

Everyone once again admired Lin Zuhui's speech, the show has given spirit and values.

Andrew said: "Thank you for Mr. Lin's support, we are willing to pay 1200 million US dollars to buy its copyright!" After finishing speaking, he showed a hint of complacency, as if to say, we are much more generous than those bastards of ABC!

Lin Zuhui shook his head with a smile, causing Andrew's mood to sink for a moment, wondering if this guy wanted to ask for 1500 million US dollars.

"No, you underestimate the value of dreams. I plan to sell you this copyright for 3200 million dollars!"

For a while, the Yankees were stunned!

Andrew roared in his heart, how righteous you were just now, how gentlemanly you were just now!Now how come you are sitting on the floor and opening your mouth like a lion!

"Mr. Lin, are you kidding, "The Voice of Chinese" is not worth that much money at all?" Andrew said unsteadily.

Lin Zuhui said calmly: "It's absolutely worth it! For NBC, if you buy it, you can beat ABC. For ABC, if you buy it, you can dominate the ratings in the United States and earn another 1 million US dollars every year! For For CBS, they also want to be the next ABC."

A colleague of Andrew said: "Mr. Lin, if you want to raise prices on our three TV stations, aren't you afraid that we will unite and refuse to buy?"

Lin Zuhui shook his head and said: "I am a businessman, and I know this is impossible. In the face of interests, I will not unite with my competitors and give up this interest. You must know that this is the world's first 'reality talent show' program The number of people with dreams in the United States may reach millions! It said that the topics it aroused will surpass that of "Millionaire". Moreover, the quality of this program is higher than that of "Millionaire". Students PK, The interaction between the teacher and the students... I believe it is worth 3200 million. By the way, when I sold "Millionaire", I deliberately only sold it to ABC for 800 million because I felt that ATV needed to prove itself in the United States. ability. Now, we have proved that we will naturally not sell the copyright at a low price! We have many options!"

For a while, everyone in NBC was stunned. There is such a shrewd businessman in the world!

They think it makes sense, and now that ABC has tasted the sweetness, they won't mind paying another 3200 million US dollars to buy this copyright; in this way, ABC can continue to dominate the ratings (at the same time period).

Andrew hesitated for a long time before saying, "This price is really too high, can Mr. Lin lower it a bit?"

Lin Zuhui also thought about it, and said after a while: "3000 million US dollars, and we have sent a team to assist you! Also, I can promise that after your revision of the copyright of this program, it will definitely be comparable to "Millionaire" in the United States."

What a joke, this show originally came from the Netherlands in the previous life, and was bought by the United States, France, Germany, South Korea, China and other countries one after another; once the American "Voice of America" ​​was broadcast, it immediately became the biggest competition of "American Idol" By.

Good products are not worried about selling, NBC does not buy, ABC and CBS will soon buy!

The point is, after selling the copyright of "The Voice of Chinese", ATV's "Chinese Idol" will start again next year, and then the Yankees can make a lot of money.

The two draft models are different, and it's no wonder ATV!

Gradually, European and American TV stations have developed the habit of buying, buying, and buying, and they will not bother to research new programs.And ATV has Lin Zuhui's bug, they don't need to study new programs, but they need to refine the content of the program according to Lin Zuhui's outline.

"Mr. Lin, I need to discuss it with the headquarters!" Andri said deliberately disappointed.

Lin Zuhui didn't take this approach, and said, "Please go ahead! Mr. Andrew, you can still browse the beautiful scenery of Xiangjiang!"

"Thank you!"

After Andrew and his party left, Lin Zuhui smiled and said to his subordinates: "Within three days, this group of people will obediently pay us the money! Of course, I originally planned to ask for 2800 million U.S. dollars. The price will be reduced by another 200 million U.S. dollars!"

Selina Chow analyzed: "It is said that ABC earned more than 6000 million US dollars a year on "Millionaire". It will even drive the ratings of the entire TV station.”

Everyone echoed this point of view. Under the strong offensive of ATV, ATV often accounts for [-]% of its ratings, while TVB only accounts for [-]%.

If things go on like this, Wireless is afraid that it will really decline!

Lin Zuhui asked: "How is the preparation of the "Chinese Idol" project going?"

Selina Chow immediately said: "The team has been formed and preparations are underway. There is still a lot of work to be done!"

Lin Zuhui thought for a while and said, "Have a meeting with this team later, let's discuss and discuss together!"
