The Most Powerful Tycoon Reborn In Xiangjiang

Qi Dezun's rebellion in the middle basically determined the outcome of the "Battle of the Bulls".

Even later, after discussion, the milk company brought in the listed company Huamao Real Estate and reorganized its own real estate company, it was too late!

When the time came to November 28th, Hongkong Land unilaterally announced that it had replaced 51% of the shares of the milk company. So far, Hongkong Land has won a decisive victory in this "cattle war".

And those shareholders of the milk company who were still waiting and watching finally couldn't sit still at this time, and they went to the offices of Jardine Fu, Walterly or Pedder Street in Central to exchange their shares.

Just two days later, Hongkong Land announced again that it had exchanged 80% of the shares of Milk Company, and announced that it would extend the share exchange proposal to December 15.

On December 15th, Hongkong Land announced that it would replace 90% of the shares of Milk Company.

Subsequently, according to the Xiangjiang Regulations, Hongkong Land will conduct a compulsory acquisition of the remaining milk company shareholders.

Since then, the far-reaching "Bull War" in the history of Xiangjiang's commercial warfare has come to an end.

At this time, Zhou Xinian also chose to leave the milk company and resign as a director.

"Huh, it's finally over!"

At Fengwu Securities, Cao Yunshang looked at the content in the newspaper and let out a sigh of relief.

Sitting next to him, Chu Huan laughed softly and said, "The two families beat their lives to death, why did you get so excited!"

Cao Yunshang laughed and said: "It's enjoyable, this battle was fought with ups and downs, it's amazing!"

Immediately afterwards, Cao Yunshang sighed: "In fact, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the share exchange plan proposed by Hongkong Land is not suitable for the shareholders of Milk Company, but they still chose to exchange shares in the end!"

Chu Huan also agreed from the side: "There is no way. Compared with the milk company, those shareholders are more optimistic about the future development prospects of Landmark, so they would rather suffer a loss temporarily. This is a natural gap between the two parties."

Cao Yunshang said worriedly again: "However, thinking that Landmark actually won the Milk Company without spending a dime, I think that from now on, Landmark's arrogance will become even more arrogant!"

Chu Huan said indifferently: "Even if there is no such thing, don't you think that Zhidi's arrogance is not arrogant?"

Cao Yunshang rolled her eyes at Chu Huan coquettishly: "Isn't he worried about you? Since you are determined to be in the real estate industry, you will definitely run into Hong Kong Land in the future. Wouldn't it be troublesome then?"

"Haha!" Chu Huan laughed loudly: "I am a person who has not even established a real estate company, and now you are worrying for me that I will compete with Hongkong Land in the future. If outsiders hear about this, I am afraid they will laugh out loud!"

Cao Yunshang pouted slightly, and said nonchalantly: "I don't care what others think, anyway, I just know that you will be able to match Landmark!"

This is unreasonable trust.

However, Chu Huan was very satisfied with this kind of trust. He took Cao Yunshang into his arms and said with a smile, "Maybe when that day comes, you will be the wife of Taipan!"

Cao Yunshang was startled by Chu Huan's words, turned around in Chu Huan's arms, clung to Chu Huan's body, and looked at Chu Huan in surprise: "Do you want to buy land?"

"Why don't you want to? I think as long as there is a real estate company in Xiangjiang, there is no one who doesn't want to buy land!" Chu Huan said seriously.

Seeing Chu Huan's serious look, Cao Yunshang didn't speak for a long time, then suddenly broke away from Chu Huan's embrace, and preached a little crazy.

"If you want to acquire Landmark, I'm afraid it will not be so easy. You must first become a shareholder of their company, so that you can really get on the table

No, even if you go to the poker table, there will be a lot of troubles. By the way, as you said before, because of the acquisition of the milk company, the equity of Hongkong Land has become more fragmented. We can secretly acquire part of the shares of Hongkong Land.

But this process must be done carefully, and the people from Jardine cannot be found out by chance, which means that this time will definitely be very long.

In addition, if you want to get the land, you must fight with Jardine. According to Jardine's influence in Hong Kong, I am afraid that even the Hong Kong government will be alarmed, and the Hong Kong government has a high probability. , must be on Jardine's side.

These problems are not easy to solve.”

Seeing Cao Yunshang walking back and forth, looking like he was frantically analyzing the possibility of buying land, Chu Huan took Cao Yunshang into his arms again, and said with a smile.

"Okay, that's a few years later, it's too far to think about it now, let's settle the matter in front of us first!"

Cao Yunshang circled around again and took the initiative to hug Chu Huan. Because of the excitement just now, her cheeks were a little red, "Liu Zhiyuan is already operating, 50 million Hong Kong dollars, and will buy the Hang Seng Index in batches. At the end of this month It will be done."

At the end of November, Chu Huan finally decided how to maximize the benefits of the extra 58 million yuan, set aside 8 million yuan in cash as working capital, and bought the remaining 50 million yuan in Hong Kong Hang Seng Index again.

After the stimulation of the "bull war", the Hang Seng Index has broken through the 800-point mark at this time, but this is not the end.

By March of next year, the Hong Kong Hang Seng Index will break through the 1770 mark, more than doubling the increase. For Chu Huan, this is the most tangible benefit.

"Didn't you say that Xiangjiang's stock market is not normal? Why do you want to buy the Hang Seng Index?" Cao Yunshang asked softly, snuggling into Chu Huan's arms.

Chu Huan said with a smile: "At least at this stage, it seems that it has not reached the peak yet."

Seeing Chu Huan's confident eyes, Cao Yunshang didn't say anything.

While the whole of Hong Kong was paying attention to the "Bull War", there was one person who set his sights on the establishment of the Fantasy Comic Club early on.

This person is called Huang Yulang, and he is now the boss of Yulang Book Company!

In fact, Chu Huan misunderstood one thing. At this time, Huang Yulang was not working for others, but had already become the boss, and it was not the first time he became the boss.

Huang Yulang, formerly known as Huang Zhenlong, was born in Chaozhou, Guangdong Province in 1951.

When he was 7 years old, he came to Xiangjiang with his father. He belonged to Shengdou Xiaomin's family, so after graduating from middle school, he started to make a living.

At the age of 13, Huang Yulang joined Times Comic Club as a part-time worker. He had a special talent for comics. He secretly learned to draw in his free time, and he was able to draw ghostly faces.

It's a pity that he has not yet been promoted to a painter, the painting club is in a downturn, and Huang Yulang is fired.

Huang Yulang, who was only 15 years old, was an ambitious man. After he was fired, he did not apply for a job. Instead, he pestered his father to lend him 1,000 Hong Kong dollars. Action book (comic book).

But the good times didn't last long, only 5 issues were released, and the old "Zhi Li" (closed) was lucky.

By 1969, Huang Yulang had started his own business several times and held a hat several times. He didn't make any money, but he learned quite well.

With no money at hand, I had no choice but to take a bald pen and work as a painter in Haiyan Publishing House, and painted a set of "Little Silly Fairy" under the pen name of Huang Xuansheng. This set of cartoons attracted the attention of Ding Xiaoxiang, a well-known man in the comics circle, who was very optimistic about Huang Yulang's painting talent.

At this time, North American TV "Superman" was on the rise. Ding asked Huang Yulang to produce a set of "Son of Superman". ——Huang Yulang.

After the publication of "Son of Superman", it became a best-selling doll book. After that, all the doll books drawn by Huang were signed by Huang Yulang. Few people knew his original name.

"Son of Superman" became popular, and Huang Yulang's old addiction as a boss relapsed, so he jumped ship and opened Diamond Publishing House.

After Huang's popularity for a while, the publishing house changed hands because of poor financial management.

Huang Yulang worked with the new boss as an emperor's job. Apart from the painting salary, he also had to participate in the dividends.

In 1971, Huang Yulang became the boss again and established Yulang Book Company.

Judging from Huang Yulang's life experience during this period, we can know that this person is an ambitious person.

At this time, he not only had his own book company, but even wanted to follow Kim Yong's example and start his own newspaper.

But now, the matter of running a newspaper can only exist in his plan.

At this time, in Huang Yulang's hands, he was holding a copy of "Sing Tao Daily", and the focus of his attention was not the news on "Sing Tao Daily", but an advertisement!

The content of the advertisement is actually very simple, it is a cartoon.

In the comics, a young man is wearing an ancient costume and makes an attacking posture. In front of the young man, eighteen mighty Chinese dragons attack the young man's opponent with a violent wind and rain.

On one side of the comic, there is a passage marked: Is this the "Eighteen Palms of the Dragon Subduing Dragon" in your mind?

On the other side is another passage: On January 1, 1973, fantasy comics opened a brand new martial arts door for you!

Looking at this advertisement, Huang Yulang's face was gloomy. At this time, Huang Yulang was already a banner of Xiangjiang Comics. Except for Shangguan Xiaobao, Huang Yulang didn't pay attention to anyone.

But now this new fantasy comic, he has to take it seriously!

After the time entered December, due to the end of the "Bull War", the major newspapers in Xiangjiang resumed the previous situation and published other advertisements.

At this time, the advertisements of fantasy comics have sprung up, and they have been published in major newspapers in Xiangjiang for half a month.

This successfully aroused the interest of Xiangjiang manga fans.

There are also some publishing industries that are quite interested in this. Who is this new comic magazine, who is so rich, and has advertised for such a comic magazine for so long.

If you add the previous recruitment advertisements, fantasy comics have actually appeared in the sights of Xiangjiang citizens for nearly two months.

At the beginning, Huang Yulang didn't pay much attention to fantasy comics, but when he found out that the boss behind the fantasy comics was actually Chu Huan, he had no choice but to lift his spirits.

Huang Yulang didn't believe that Chu Huan knew anything about comics, but Huang Yulang had to admit that Chu Huan was very capable in business.

When Chu Huan founded Black and White Films, he didn't personally direct or star in movies. Today, Black and White Films has become the third largest film company in Xiangjiang through money-making ability.

Hong Jinbao broke his own box office record at the box office with the first film directed by Black and White Video, breaking through one million box office, and then the second film "San De Monk and Chong Rice Six" released this month made another success.

Fifteen days after its release, the box office has broken through the box office record of 1 million, and it seems to be going to 2 million. Now Xiangjiang Film Magazine is praising Hong Jinbao, creating a new routine of Xiangjiang kung fu movies.

As a result, Hong Jinbao claimed in the interview that the reason why he was able to think of such a martial arts style was entirely because he accepted Chu Huan's suggestion and came up with such an idea.

Regardless of whether this is true or not, with two consecutive films of over one million box office, Hung Kam Po has officially secured his position as a first-line movie star in Hong Kong at this time.

The reputation of black and white images is naturally even louder.

Not to mention that there is also a great director Li Hanxiang who exists in the Dinghai Shenzhen version of black and white images.

Facing such an opponent, it is impossible to say that Huang Yulang is not worried.

After knowing that the boss behind Fantasia is Chu Huan, Huang Yulang immediately launched an investigation into Fantasia.

This investigation didn't matter, but Huang Yulang was really taken aback by the result.

Sure enough, Chu Huan used his financial ability to recruit Yasuo Kamakura, a general under Osamu Tezuka, in Japan to preside over the daily work of fantasy comics.

At the same time, 16 Japanese painters were recruited. Tomioka Katsuya was also regarded as an ordinary painter by Huang Yulang.

But Huang Yulang has his own pride. This opponent needs to be taken seriously, but he cannot lose his prestige.

"Since you're making such a fuss, I'll let you see that Xiangjiang's comics industry is different from the film industry!"

Huang Yulang thought for a while, then picked up the pen and paper, and began to write an article. Huang Yulang finished writing the hundreds of words in a long time, and then called his secretary.

"Send this statement to Tian Tian Daily and let them publish it tomorrow."

The secretary took the statement and glanced at it briefly, only to find that it was Huang Yulang's statement criticizing fantasy comics.

Of course, she knows about fantasy comics, and it is difficult for her to read the newspapers every day.

It's just that the first issue of this comic magazine has not yet been released, so why did it attract dissatisfaction from my boss?

Although he had doubts in his heart, the secretary didn't dare to ask. Everyone knew that Huang Yulang's words were arbitrary, and no one in the company should have a different view on his opinions.

"yes!"

After agreeing to Huang Yulang's order, the secretary turned around and left.

At this time, Chu Huan didn't know that Huang Yulang had regarded himself as an imaginary enemy, but came to the set of Shaw Brothers Clear Water Bay to visit the set!

It's not Li Hanxiang's new movie, but the film "Chu Liuxiang" directed by Chu Yuan, starring Ti Lung, and adapted from Gu Long's novel "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang"!

At the beginning, Chu Huan and Shao Yifu made a bet on the box office of the two films "The Big J Valve" and "Young Man". In the month's schedule, Shaw Brothers' films will be screened at full capacity.

If the black-and-white video of "The Big J Valve" wins the box office, then Chu Huan can choose a director and an actor from Shaw Brothers every year to shoot a movie for the black-and-white video.

The box office of the movie "Big J Valve" has already surpassed that of "Young Man", so naturally Chu Huan won the bet.

Originally, Chu Huan was a little worried at the beginning. The people he hired from the Shaw Brothers were indirectly helping the Shao Brothers to support them, so Chu Huan never made up his mind to use the people from the Shao Brothers.

But with the establishment of fantasy comics, Chu Huan's thoughts gradually changed.

If you want fantasy comics to become popular in an instant, you need various means of publicity.

What kind of publicity method can be compared to the release of a big-selling movie!

Don't you see, at some point in later generations, whenever there is a movie, TV series, or comic book adapted from a novel, it will drive the electronic subscription of the original works.

This is a process of mutual support.

So at the beginning of November when the fierce battle of "Bull War" was in full swing, Chu Huan found Shao Yifu and asked him to fulfill their bet.

Although Shao Yifu regards Chu Huan as one of his most important opponents, he is not a person who does not trust his words. However, during the negotiation process with Chu Huan, he also pointed out that what Chu Huan said before would not be borrowed. Chang Cheh's.

Naturally, Chu Huan would not borrow Zhang Che, he borrowed Chu Yuan.

Shao Yifu had no choice but to agree, and then Chu Huan borrowed Ti Lung, who is absolutely handsome in the film industry at this time!

Of course, regarding the screenwriter of the movie "Chu Liuxiang", Chu Huan still found Ni Xiao.

Although the two had some unhappiness during the filming of Li Xiaolong's movie "Fist of Fury", Chu Huan never thought of being friends with Ni Xie. I give money and you do things.

"Director Chu, how is the filming going?"

After Chu Huan came to Shaw Brothers' Qingshuiwan studio, it happened that the crew of "Chu Liuxiang" had a temporary break.

Chu Huan went straight to Chu Yuan's side.

Although the relationship between Black and White Image and Shaw Brothers is hostile, that is the matter between Chu Huan and Shao Yifu. Chu Yuan is only a contracted director of Shaw Brothers, and now he is helping Black and White Image to make a movie. When facing Chu Huan, he naturally We were very kind.

"It's going very well. Regarding the release on the 15th of next month that Young Master Huan said, there must be no problem!"

Although the movie "Chu Liuxiang" is still in the shooting stage, Chu Huan has already set a release date, January 15, 1973!

In fact, if this movie can be released on January 1, this time is the best.

But this is not the best time to maximize profits.

First of all, if this movie is released at this time, then his opponent will be Li Xiaolong's "Way of the Dragon". In this era, if you want to compete with Li Xiaolong's movie, you are basically looking for death.

Even the movie "Chu Liuxiang" is no exception.

At the same time, Chu Huan also promised Li Xiaolong that when his movie "Way of the Dragon" is released, Shanhai Cinemas will fully support it.

By the 15th, the popularity of the movie "Raptors crossing the river" in Xiangjiang must have been halved. At that time, Shanhai theaters can also draw "Raptors crossing the river", leaving Jiahe's own theater The movie is out online.

"Then Director Chu will be troublesome for the next period of time. After the movie is released, I will give Director Chu another big red envelope!"

Chu Huan smiled and preached to Chu Yuan.

It's a pity that the contract signed between Chu Yuan and Shaw Brothers was too long, and it went straight to the 1980s. Otherwise, Chu Huan really wanted to sign Chu Yuan to the black and white film.

If there are two big directors Li Hanxiang and Chu Yuan in the black-and-white film at this time, then the black-and-white film will really not have to worry about the box office of their company's movies in the next ten years, not to mention that there is still a growing black-and-white film at this time. Hong Jinbao, Cheng Long, and Xu Guanwen.

"I have known for a long time that Huan Shao is quite generous to his employees. I didn't expect that we can enjoy it this time!"

Chu Yuan and Chu Huan were joking.

"The purpose of making a movie is to make money, and if you make money, naturally everyone must be happy." Chu Huan said with a smile.

"It's still Huan Shao's spirit!" Chu Yuan spoke the truth this time.

Shooting movies at Shaw Brothers is good, except for one thing, that is, the budget is stuck. It is better for a famous film director like Chu Yuan. If it is a new director, it is really a desire I want to die!

This is also the reason why Shaw Brothers never found a new box office director.

So stingy!

Even for a director like Chu Yuan, when the box office results were not satisfactory in the later period, he could almost use "sweeping the floor" to describe his situation when he left Shaw Brothers.

At that time, Chu Yuan hit the street with several movies one after another, and wanted to restore his reputation with "Dragon Babu". , directly took the notice to Chu Yuan's office, and tore up his notice in front of Chu Yuan.

And reprimanded loudly: "Who told you to make Tianlong Babu, can you compensate for the loss? Chu Yuan, you don't know how to make movies at all!"

It can be said that Chu Yuan at that time was the most embarrassing film director in the entire Shaw Brothers!

"That's natural. As long as Director Chu is in need, he can come to me at any time. Then Director Chu, you will be able to truly know how generous I am!"

Chu Huan gave a meaningful sermon.

Chu Yuan also understood what Chu Huan meant, but he just smiled and didn't say anything.

At this time, Chu Yuan was treated very well at Shaw Brothers, so he naturally couldn't imagine what kind of treatment he would receive in a certain year or a certain day in the future.

Seeing that Chu Yuan did not respond, Chu Huan did not continue the topic. After chatting for a few words, Chu Huan came to Di Long's side.

Ti Lung, wearing a black costume, is so handsome at this moment.

To put it bluntly, compared with the current Dillon, those little fresh meats of later generations are not a block or two away.

However, it may also be because Ti Lung always shoots ancient costumes and needs to wear a headgear, which caused Ti Lung's hairline to move back so much that even Belle is nothing compared to him.

In Xiangjiang, apart from Ti Lung having this trouble, there is another person who also has this trouble, and that is Qiu Guan.

Qiu Guan looks chic and suave in ancient costumes, but in fact Qiu Guan is a Mediterranean, and has been wearing wigs for many years.

There was only one time to publicize my image, and that was at the funeral of my ex-wife, and Deng Guangrong scolded me like a dog

"Young Master Huan!"

After meeting Chu Huan, Di Long was as polite as Chu Yuan.

He also understands that according to the current situation, the rise of black and white images is unstoppable, and in the future black and white images are bound to become a force that cannot be ignored in the Hong Kong film industry.

As an actor himself, there is no need to offend a powerful film company boss for Shaw Brothers.

Another person who was later kicked out by the Shaw Brothers!

Di Lung's situation is not much better than Chu Yuan's. As one of the Shaw Brothers' most popular film actors in the 1970s, with the decline of Shaw Brothers' influence, Di Lung no longer has the box office appeal.

In the end, he was abandoned by Shaw Brothers!

Fortunately, "The True Colors of a Hero" was released later, which gave Dillon a second career. Otherwise, there would be very few audiences who would remember Dillon in future generations!

"How about it, what's the difference between shooting black and white images and shooting for Shaw Brothers?"

Of course it's different, the treatment of black and white video is really good, not to mention the salary increase, even the usual box lunch is better than Shaw's.

I thought so, but I definitely can't say that. After all, Ti Lung is still a signed actor of Shaw Brothers.

"Everything is fine, thank you Huan Shao for taking care of me!" Dillon said politely.

Seeing Di Long's attitude at this time, Chu Huan understood that now Di Long is the same as Chu Yuan, and it is not easy to win him over.

It can only be tried slowly.

But for the follow-up matter, Chu Huan will definitely not follow up in person, and just leave it to the black and white image to handle it by himself.

After chatting with Chu Yuan and Di Lung on the set, Chu Huan went to Shao Yifu's office again. In fact, the main purpose of coming here this time was to see Shao Yifu.

"A Huan, I remember that we are already an alliance, why do you still help Jiahe?"

After Shao Yifu saw Chu Huan, he immediately preached with some dissatisfaction.

For Chu Huan at this moment, even Shao Yifu couldn't say anything with too much emphasis.

The thing that made Shao Yifu dissatisfied was actually the release of "The Way of the Dragon" at Shanhai Cinemas.

"Uncle Six, I didn't help Jiahe with this matter. Besides, when we agreed on this matter with Brother Long, we hadn't formed an alliance yet. Uncle Six, you can't let me be a little boy who doesn't keep his word. people?"

Chu Huan didn't pay much attention to the sermon.

He understood what Shao Yifu meant, saying that it was for Li Xiaolong's affairs, but in fact he just wanted to give himself some psychological hints to remind him not to forget that the alliance between Shao Brothers and Black and White Image is now, and Jiahe is their enemy!

Shao Yifu said: "This will only make Jiahe more proud, and it will not be of any benefit to our plan."

But Chu Huan said: "Uncle Liu, to be fair, even if the movie "The Way of the Dragon" hadn't been released on Shanhai Cinemas, do you think the movie's box office in Xiangjiang would be worse?

At this time, Li Xiaolong's status in the Hong Kong film industry is not an exaggeration, it is not the same with or without our Shanhai cinema chain! "

Since Shao Yifu didn't really want to break up with Chu Huan because of this matter, naturally he wouldn't really fall out with Chu Huan.

Just talked about Chu Huan breaking the agreement between the two, and the matter passed.

Chu Huan left Shao Yifu's office indifferently.

the next day!

Not long after Chu Huan got up, Cao Yunshang came to Chu Huan's apartment: "Brother Huan, someone scolded you in the newspaper!"

Also, at six o'clock in the afternoon~~
