Rebirth 1981 starts with saving the sisters from the neighboring village.

Although Red Star has invested less in films over the past year or so, its industrial layout has been constantly improving.

That day, Qin Wanqiu found him and reported the situation to him.

"First is the A Chinese Ghost Story series, which has been adapted into comics and TV series. We are currently focusing on developing games and theme parks."

"There's no need to say much about the games. The theme park is mainly divided into three parts."

“Some of them are film and television shooting bases in Zhejiang Province.”

"It mainly includes Lanruo Temple, Guobei County, Imperial Court, Hell, Black Mountain, etc., covering an area of ​​2500 acres! For sightseeing, travel, and subsequent larger series of film shooting services."

“Part of it is located in Tseung Kwan O Studios.”

“It’s mainly used for photography and individual tourists.”

"The largest theme park is located in Sibai Bay on the outlying islands of Lantau Island, covering an area of ​​more than 3800 acres!"

When Peng Wanhua heard this, he instantly remembered that Disney had invested and built in this place in his previous life.

In this life, Red Star got there first and, taking advantage of the Tsing Ma Bridge, immediately negotiated with the Hong Kong government on the investment and construction of the amusement park.

The Tsing Ma Bridge is a bridge connecting the Hong Kong River and the outlying island of Lantau Island. It was invested in construction in 1992 and was expected to be completed in 1996.

Without a bridge, citizens can only take a boat to get there.

With this bridge, it will be much more convenient for Hong Kong citizens to travel.

Qin Wanqiu continued: "This is a comprehensive theme park that not only includes the theme of the A Chinese Ghost Story series, but also the mythology series that will be planned for the future."

"For example, Yunxiao Palace, Tianting, Buzhou Mountain, and Kunlun Mountain Cable Car."

"There are also more than 100 recreational activities such as go-karting, mountain off-roading, boating, rafting, skydiving, exploration, and haunted houses."

"It provides a variety of services including themed rides, entertainment performances, interactive experiences, catering services, shopping, parade performances and fireworks displays."

Peng Wanhua said: "With this investment, the construction period is not short."

Qin Wanqiu nodded and said, "In the first phase, we plan to complete the overall planning, construction and opening of approximately 55 recreational projects in four years.

It is expected to officially open in 1997.

The second phase will take about six more years to complete the construction of all the more than 100 attractions.”

Peng Wanhua nodded and said, "Hong Kong does need a decent theme park. Since we have such resources and talents, we should give full play to our advantages."

Qin Wanqiu smiled and said, "Of course, but this investment is extremely huge. The project investment department conservatively estimates it to be 150 billion Hong Kong dollars."

"It is indeed not small."

Qin Wanqiu: "So I plan to have Red Star Film and Red Star Media issue additional shares and obtain more financing from the stock market to invest in this project."

"No problem." Peng Wanhua certainly understood what she was thinking.

Such a large investment using Red Star Films or Media Group's money might cause certain cash flow risks.

It would be better to take advantage of the bull market and raise some money to do this.

As for Red Star Industry, it has not yet gone public, so naturally it is impossible for it to pay this money.

When the time is ripe and Hongxing Industry starts to make profits and goes public again, the market will definitely be more accepting of it.

Qin Wanqiu: "Then there is the myth movie series. The first part of Hongmeng Creation Record, the second part "The War of Gods and Demons", and the third part "The Dragon and Phoenix Tribulation" have all been completed and published."

"Oh? Lao Liu is very hardworking. He basically publishes a book a year. How are the sales?" Peng Wanhua asked.

Qin Wanqiu said: "The first volume has a total of 13 volumes, which have been translated into English, Spanish, Arabic, Russian, Japanese and other languages, and sold to more than 2500 countries and regions, with a total sales volume of million copies!

The second volume has a total of 550 million words, with 18 volumes in total. The total sales volume has reached 2200 million copies so far, and the translation work is in progress!

The third volume has 600 million words and a total of 20 volumes. The current total sales volume is 1900 million copies!

The total sales of the first three books combined exceeded 6600 million copies! By the way, Red Star Media has already paid him about 4000 million yuan in royalties, and there is more to come.”

"Hiss!~The sales volume and royalties are a bit scary!" Peng Wanhua exclaimed.

Qin Wanqiu: "Yes, on the one hand, Lao Liu worked very hard on writing, and on the other hand, we invested a lot of resources. He was the first to try it out, and he can be called the originator of online literature.

Thanks to the development of the Internet, online literature is now being discussed at an unusually high rate, and the works are even more popular than Jin Guliang's!"

"Many netizens and book fans said that his books are so wonderful, integrating a huge mythological system, traditional oriental culture, and Chinese classics such as the Classic of Mountains and Seas, Tao Te Ching, and I Ching, and they are simply irresistible to read.

According to research statistics, among Hong Kong's population of more than six million, at least three out of every ten people know this book, and at least one is a fan of his!

As for the broader mainland and Southeast Asian markets, sales are also booming, and the future potential is very impressive!"

Peng Wanhua smiled slightly. It seems that exciting novels always have a market in any era.

In addition, Lao Liu’s books are not just mindless fun, they also have wonderful characters, settings and structures, excellent writing and cultural connotations.

It is inevitable that it will become popular.

Qin Wanqiu continued: "And this is just the beginning. Once the mainland and Southeast Asian markets are fully developed, I estimate that sales will reach new highs!

Once the market is well developed, I will prepare to launch the film project. According to the current plan, it will be officially launched around 1997, and will be released after 2000. "

Peng Wanhua nodded and praised, "Very good. Not only movies, but also comics and animation adaptations can be done first. Find some top artists and traditional culture research scholars, spend more time and energy to polish some scenes and character images."

"Yes, I am now asking Red Star Animation to adapt it into a comic book, and it will probably be available on the market in three months," Qin Wanqiu said.

"That's good." Peng Wanhua nodded.

"By the way, speaking of movies, didn't Stephen Chow not renew his contract with us last year? Have you been paying attention to the release of his movies recently?"

"Well, no, what's wrong?" It's just two movies, Peng Wanhua really doesn't have time to pay attention.

"Zhou Xingxing founded the Color Star Film Company and invested more than 6000 million Hong Kong dollars to shoot two "A Chinese Odyssey" movies. They were released earlier this year, but the box office was only 2500 million and 2100 million Hong Kong dollars respectively, which was a complete failure!

Even his company, which had only been established for less than a year, went bankrupt!"

Speaking of this, Qin Wanqiu couldn't help but shook her head.

She originally thought that if Stephen Chow went out and started his own business, he would be able to set new box office records.

At that time, she even felt a little regretful for not investing in these two films.

But I didn’t expect the box office to be so bad after the movie came out!

According to her estimation, the producer of these two films, Color Star Company, lost at least 40 million!

At this moment, she was actually somewhat relieved.

Fortunately, Zhou Xingxing was let out at the beginning, otherwise, even though the Red Star Group is a big company, it would not be able to withstand such a loss!
