Chapter five hundred and seventeenth century scam

Moreover, the distribution of movie theaters in China is unbalanced in the east, west, north and south. The developed eastern and coastal areas are significantly more numerous than the western and inland areas. With the exception of Beijing and Tianjin, the number of movie theaters in the south is significantly greater than that in the north. And there are not many of these movie theaters in the first place.

They are basically all in big cities, with fewer medium-sized cities and very few small cities. Small towns simply lack cinemas. The uneven distribution of theater chains is also one of the factors that prevents the Chinese cinema chain market from truly forming a competitive pattern. More importantly

Yes, due to the low per capita income in the country, movie consumption is still high compared to personal consumption. Americans only need less than ten dollars to watch a movie, which is one-third or four-hundredth of their monthly income, while Chinese people only need less than ten dollars to watch a movie.

Watching a movie often costs one-twentieth or thirty-third of your monthly income, turning civilian entertainment into a luxury. As a result, the less developed the economy, the fewer movie theaters there are.

The cooperation between domestic movie theater chains and foreign-funded movie theater lines has begun a few years ago, but there are many domestic restrictions on foreign investment in the movie theater chain field. Fang Mingyuan can completely understand the government's idea. With those domestic movie theater lines, it will

If the Shenzhou Cinema Line Company is excluded and all are tied together, I am afraid that the number of screens and annual box office revenue will not be comparable to that of the King Entertainment Group Company. If they are allowed in without restrictions, with their far superior technology and management

Due to their high level of quality and abundant funds, most of the existing movie theater chains in China cannot escape the fate of mergers and acquisitions and bankruptcy.

"Fang, you are now a world celebrity, and many people will pay attention to your every move. They hope to find opportunities to make a fortune from your actions." Stockton smiled, "I am no exception. However,

, I know that with the requirements of your government, now is not a good time to enter the cinema chain field of your country, but I think that day will come eventually. You can’t all buy our cinema chain companies. We haven’t.

Can you build a cinema in your country? I only ask for a commitment from you. When your country opens its doors in the future, if Shenzhou Cinema Line intends to introduce foreign investment, under the same conditions, it can give priority to Emperor Entertainment Group."

"Oh... no problem, under the same conditions. I promise to give Emperor Entertainment Group priority." Fang Mingyuan pondered for a moment, stretched out his hand and said with a smile, "But I also have a small condition. By then Emperor Entertainment Group will be in North American cinemas

Among the online companies, it must be in the top three. Shenzhou Cinema Line Company only cooperates with the strongest companies."

"No problem!" Stockton smiled and held Fang Mingyuan's hand. "If you say you can't do this, I have no right to ask you to fulfill your promise!" Without this kind of self-confidence, how can Emperor Entertainment be promoted?

The group company has become the largest in North America in a few years.

The two people who had initially reached an intention to cooperate were in a good mood, and they chatted casually again. Stockton said: "I heard that the budget for "Avatar" directed by Director Cameron has been increased?" Although the filming of "Avatar"

The process is very low-key, and it is not time to publicize it now, but the secrets of this world are relative to ordinary people. For a small group of people, as long as they want to know, then there are not many secrets in this world.

.As a big shot in the film industry, Stockton is very clear about things in the industry.

"I have prepared a shooting budget of 600 million US dollars for James." Fang Mingyuan said with a slight smile, "As long as it is within this range, let him go."

Stockton opened his mouth, not knowing what to say for a moment. Although Cameron is now the number one director in Hollywood and has an amazing box office appeal, to be honest, he spent 600 million US dollars to let him

When making a movie, with such a degree of trust, even he, who is worth hundreds of millions, feels that Fang Mingyuan treats Cameron very well. Although, the reason why Hong Kong Kumho Film Group can be what it is today, Cameron holds

He has made great contributions to the series of films he directed, but Cameron’s contribution is not free. While Hong Kong’s Kumho Film Group is growing, his own net worth and status in Hollywood are also skyrocketing. It should be said that this is a win-win situation.

process.

And now, Fangyuan has resolutely spent 600 million U.S. dollars, which is enough for Hong Kong Kumho Film Group to finish filming the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy and then film the "Heroes" trilogy. There may also be huge savings for Kamei.

Long shot a movie to fulfill his dream for many years. Behind such a generous move, Stockton felt that what he saw was Fang Mingyuan’s side of love and justice. Of course, he did not rule out that from Fang Mingyuan’s perspective, he thought

"Avatar" is bound to be a hit at the box office in the future, but no matter how great the possibility is, it cannot be denied that the risks involved are also very high! This amount of money invested in the filming of "Avatar" is far less than used to shoot other movies.

Get more profits with low risk!

Many people may think that Fangyuan is stupid for doing this. In fact, when Cameron first decided to shoot "Avatar", he found many film companies, but the one that finally agreed to invest was Hong Kong Kumho Film Group. As for DreamWorks Film Company

and Jade Bird Film Group Company, the proportion is too small, and these two companies have a very close relationship with Hong Kong Kumho Film Group Company, Fang Mingyuan also holds a considerable share in it, so "Avatar" is regarded as Hong Kong's Kumho Film Group Company

There is nothing wrong with Lake Film Group investing in the filming alone. Why did those film companies, including many established film companies in Hollywood, reject Cameron's request? In the final analysis, it is not because the risk involved is too great!

But I'm afraid many people are criticizing Fang Mingyuan for doing this stupidly, and on the other hand they are envious of Cameron. Why haven't they met someone who can stand firmly behind them and give them confidence and financial support without worrying about the other party?

People who can stab themselves secretly. Stockton has also spent half his life in society. He has seen too many similar things. It is not uncommon for people to cheat and burn bridges, but there are only a few people who offer help in times of need.

Thinking of this, Stockton's impression of Fang Mingyuan naturally improved a bit.

"It seems you have great confidence in director Cameron's work." Stockton smiled.

"Not entirely. It should be said that I have great confidence in our two works. John, you can't erase my role in the movie." Fang Mingyuan said with a somewhat dissatisfied tone.

"Hahahaha... I said it out of consideration. Let's do this. When "Avatar" is released, our Emperor Entertainment Group will definitely give it the greatest support!" Stockton laughed and decided

Well, even if the box office of "Avatar" is not so satisfactory in the future, in order to bring the relationship between the two parties closer, he will give the greatest support! Whose life has not had many ups and downs, but now he is also running towards the elderly

, there is no harm in leaving two more connections for yourself!

"Then let me thank you in advance for your support on behalf of James!" Fang Mingyuan raised his coffee cup and smiled, "I wish us a happy cooperation."

After seeing off Stockton, Fang Mingyuan did not return to the room, but returned to the garden. While chatting just now, Stockton casually mentioned something that he was considering whether to entrust a famous American financial person to

Bernard Madoff's financial management of his $200 million fortune reminded him of some past events. He had been so busy over the years that he almost forgot about it.

Bernard Madoff, a famous American financial broker and former chairman of Nasdaq, is one of the three major brokerage companies that provide listing consulting on the Nasdaq stock market and is the third largest brokerage company on the New York Stock Exchange.

Madoff Investment Securities Company. Looking at his resume, people will marvel at his glorious past. Even now, he is a well-known figure in the American financial community, investing for world-renowned wealthy people, hedge funds and other institutions.

Financial management. His clients include many world-renowned banks, wealthy people and social figures. But Fang Mingyuan knows that if history is not joking about this matter and does not produce a butterfly effect, this Bernard Madoff

, will be the creator of the largest Ponzi scheme in the history of world financial investment.

Fang Mingyuan can no longer remember the amount of money involved in the scam in his previous life, but it must have been tens of billions of dollars! At least he still remembered that after Madoff was arrested, his partner was also an investor.

A certain person handed over the US$7.2 billion in income he had obtained from Madoff Investment Securities Company over the years!

Fang Mingyuan looked up at the sky, recalling every bit of what he had seen. In his memory, Madoff's scam was also a gourd case. Although the amount involved was extremely huge, Madoff's personal profit from it was small in comparison.

It’s not a lot, but his partner and investor has received US$7.2 billion over the years and has become the largest beneficiary. However, this person died of a heart attack before being arrested, making this case

It became even more confusing. As a foreigner and a non-financial industry person, Fang Mingyuan was just watching the fun at the time, but now that he thinks about it, he feels that it is full of mystery.

This incident should have been revealed when the U.S. subprime mortgage crisis spread to the world in 2008. It caused a global shock and caused heavy losses to many wealthy people and financial institutions, further exacerbating the subprime mortgage crisis.

damage to the global economy.

However, is there anything he can use in this matter? Fang Mingyuan couldn't help but fell into deep thought... (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please visit http://m.piotian.net
