Chapter 378 [The TV station is here! 】

The news that Oriental Media Group acquired 1 million square feet of land in Tseung Kwan O from the Hong Kong Government for the construction of the Oriental Studios has caused an uproar on Hong Kong Island.

What is the concept of   1 million square feet? The largest cinema in Asia, Shaw Studios, occupies only 500,000 square feet, and Oriental Studios is twice the size of Shaw Studios.

Many people began to question the fact that the land resources on Hong Kong Island are so precious, why build a movie theater that is twice as large as the Shaw Studios?

Even if your boss of Oriental Media is rich, you can't waste the precious land resources of Hong Kong Island!

What does Oriental Media do?

That is the boss of the media industry, and naturally will not let this kind of public opinion ferment and affect the reputation of the boss!

Orient Media issued an announcement: Oriental Studios is a complex integrating film and television, tourism and entertainment! After completion, it will showcase the treasures of Chinese culture to the citizens of Hong Kong Island. Among them, there are various buildings such as Ming and Qing Palace, Qin Palace, Old Summer Palace, etc. for Hong Kong residents to visit

It turns out that, Hong Kong and Kowloon citizens couldn't help but sigh!

I still have the courage to have ideas!

Oriental Studios can not only shoot movies, but also satisfy the appreciation of Chinese culture by Chinese people or tourists. This is an amazing idea.

"Shocky plaster! I want to get involved in any business, and I pry into the corner of Shao's Pictures! Vertical! Vertical!" Shao Laoliu couldn't help cursing in the office.

At this time, Shao Laoliu was furious;

Recently, important personnel of Shaw Pictures, headed by Zou Wenhuai, have resigned;

Shao Laoliu already hates Wu Guangyao, but he did not expect Wu Guangyao to come directly to the bottom of the pan to draw his salary and build the Oriental Film and Television City;

This is completely cutting off one's own money!

Shao Laoliu’s anger! That's big!

Shao Laoliu finally calmed down after making a fire into the air.

Shark daring has too much influence on Hong Kong Island, and he can't afford it;

However, since he wants to play a movie, then give him some color to see!

Shaw Brothers has been making movies since the 1930s. How can he be afraid of a spoiler?

Shao Laoliu finally found a way to comfort himself.

In mid-April, the Hong Kong government announced the results of the TV license bidding, and the consortium consisting of Oriental Media, HSBC Bank, and Hutchison Bank won the bid;

The winning bid amounted to 20 million Hong Kong dollars, which was 5 million Hong Kong dollars ahead of the second-ranked Ricky family, which caused an uproar on Hong Kong Island for a while!

20 million Hong Kong dollars to buy such a license plate, this is a panic of money burning!

"Shark’s daring money is simply not money. I just spent 10 million Hong Kong dollars on land, and now I have spent 20 million Hong Kong dollars on a TV license!"

"Who said no! At the beginning, the Li TV station paid a management fee of hundreds of thousands of Hong Kong dollars. When it is our turn to open a TV station, we will have to spend tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars. This Hong Kong government really has a good calculation!"

"Hey! No way, who told you to compete! Did you pay 15 million Hong Kong dollars without seeing Lijia? Everyone values ​​this TV license so much. I don't know why, is this profitable?"

"I will calculate the bill for you. A TV costs 25 Hong Kong dollars a month, which is 300 Hong Kong dollars a year. Even with 2000 TVs, it is only 600,000 Hong Kong dollars a year. This is a loss-making business!"

"Ah! Shark is still doing business at a loss?"

"is not it!"

Orient Media Group

"Knowing that their bid was so low, we should have made less!" Qi Dezun said regretfully.

Wu Guangyao laughed, he was still annoyed that he was too low, and he was almost robbed by Lijia!

The low price given by the Hong Kong government is 10 million Hong Kong dollars, and Lee Home’s offer is 15 million Hong Kong dollars. Obviously, it is very important;

Of course, Wu Guangyao wanted to increase the price to 25 million Hong Kong dollars beforehand, so as not to be intercepted.

If it weren't for Qi Dezun's stingy bar, Wu Guangyao would really plan to make the bid amount to 25 million Hong Kong dollars.

"5 million Hong Kong dollars seems to be a lot, and it may be earned back in the next few months!" Wu Guangyao persuaded.

Qi Dezun and Sang Da Shi looked at Wu Guangyao together, with incredible expressions in their eyes.

"Does the TV station make so much money? Then why is Li's reluctant to have better equipment." Qi Dezun expressed suspicion.

Wu Guangyao looked at the situation and didn’t give any pointers. These shareholders might not be able to sleep these days.

"First, the number of households buying TVs has begun to increase. When our TV station is officially launched, the scale of TV sets on Hong Kong Island will be at least 5,000 or more; if we join forces with TV manufacturers to show TV and TV in major shopping malls For the program, I believe Hong Kong Islanders will buy more and more TV."

"Secondly, when there are more people watching TV, then we can receive advertisements. Compared with newspapers and radio advertisements, TV advertisements have huge advantages, I believe you should understand; and the main income of our TV stations is advertising."

After listening to Wu Guangyao's words, Qi Dezun and Sundashi left Oriental Media with a cheerful and contented attitude.

Dian Mao’s boss, Lu Yuntao, lost his life in a plane crash on his way to participate in the Taiwan Golden Horse Awards in June 1964;

There are also some popular stars of Dianmao, so Dianmao can be described as a group of dragons without a leader. Shao Laoliu has no "heart trouble" and is naturally happy in secret.

Unexpectedly, just after the jackal left, the tiger came again!

At the end of April, Oriental Pictures was formally established in a 6-story old-fashioned commercial building in the Central District.

Dongfang Pictures has dug a large number of talents in Shaw Brothers and Dianmao, especially the talents of Dianmao, almost all of them came to Oriental Pictures;

The boss is gone, and the company is deteriorating. Naturally, everyone will not wait to close down. It is better to rely on the giant of Oriental Media.

Wu Guangyao, Shen Baoxing, Yang Kang, and Zou Wenhuai are in the office to discuss the next work of Oriental Pictures.

"Although Eastern Media is not bad for money, in order to promote the development of the film industry, it also decided to follow the Hollywood model and adopt the producer model. For each film, Eastern Pictures can be wholly-owned or joint ventures. In the future, master It is no longer the production company, but the money that has the power to kill the film." Wu Guangyao first said that the producer will be widely used in later generations, and naturally it will not be bad.

Furthermore, the initiative of how much investment is in the hands of Oriental Pictures after all!

Zou Wenhuai's eyes lit up, and he said, “If the director, scriptwriter, and actor buy shares with labor fees, is it feasible?”

Wu Guangyao said generously: "Of course, as long as they have this confidence, why not?"

"Not only that, Oriental Pictures implements a dividend system for business backbones, directors, screenwriters, and famous actors. We have money to make money together."

When everyone heard this, they suddenly felt that everyone met a good boss!

The reason why Wu Guangyao is so generous is that it is also the future generations of Jiahe Pictures!

After all, I don’t want to learn Shaw Films. Although I have a strong ability to make stars, I can’t keep talents.

Next, everyone discussed a lot of details, especially the artist training class needs to be prepared immediately.

As for shooting a movie, everyone agreed that we should wait three months before considering it. After all, the company needs to run in.
