Seeing that the company's stock price has reached a new high, Jiang Xiaofeng also cashed out a lot of funds with major shareholders in the process.
After all, after working hard for so many years, the company is now enjoying great momentum. If we don’t sell it now, do we have to wait until the company fails?
Although Jiang Xiaofeng is not a money-oriented businessman and has his own feelings, he is not stupid either. He knows when to accept and when to let go.
If you don't want to be a bastard if you have money, Jiang Xiaofeng doesn't want to be a bastard, let alone be taken advantage of. He has worked so hard to make the company bigger and stronger, why should he just watch others pick the fruit and not pick it himself to fill his stomach.
In the past two years, Jiang Xiaofeng made a cash profit of nearly 4 million yuan in several operations by buying low and selling high.
When a reporter questioned whether the sale of stocks was due to lack of confidence in the company's development, Jiang Xiaofeng also bluntly denied: "Of course not."
"It's just a very normal business decision."
"We are all human beings. You work hard to make money. I work hard also to make money."
"I have made achievements for the group, the company is operating well, and the stock price has reached a new high. I and my fellow investors can make some money together. Isn't it too much?"
The reporter obviously didn't buy it, and then added: "But you have achieved financial freedom through listing and financing, shouldn't you focus on running a good business now?"
Jiang Xiaofeng guessed that he was paid to cause damage, and wanted to scold him, but he still held back and asked with a smile: "Then let me ask you, which film and television company has the highest market value in our country now?"
The reporter replied: "Your Century Entertainment Group."
Jiang Xiaofeng then said: "Since you also know that we are the best and everyone supports us to make money, you will buy our company's stocks, then why do you still ask such a childish question?"
The reporter was speechless. When he came to his senses, he wanted to ask again, but Jiang Xiaofeng no longer gave him a chance and waved goodbye to all the media reporters.
Ever since "Embarrassed in Thailand 2" won the national box office championship, everyone has been concerned about when the third film will be filmed.
Jiang Xiaofeng does not plan to make a third film for the time being, but will hand over the big IP of the "囧" series to other directors in the company.
Although this project is very stressful, it is also a very good opportunity for directors who lack opportunities to gain wealth and wealth.
Soon, many directors in the company approached Jiang Xiaofeng and expressed their intention to make this movie.
Among them, Xu Zheng was the most active. He expressed to Jiang Xiaofeng many times that he was willing to take on this arduous task.
Seeing that Xu Zheng had followed him for many years, Jiang Xiaofeng finally handed over the project of "On the Road 3" to Xu Zheng and told him: "shoot well and shoot with heart."
Xu Zheng vowed: "I will do my best!"
After throwing the mess of the "囧" series to Xu Zheng, Jiang Xiaofeng then started preparing for the movie "Detective Chinatown".
The script "Detective Chinatown" was "created" by Jiang Xiaofeng himself. He did not rely on others because he did not believe that others could write it well.
Moreover, Jiang Xiaofeng also attaches great importance to the "Detective Chinatown" series. His goal is to make it even more awesome than the "囧" series.
In Jiang Xiaofeng's view, as long as the IP of "Chinatown Detective" is good, Century Entertainment Group's stock price can be stable in the next five or even 10 years.
Therefore, Jiang Xiaofeng will not only serve as the screenwriter of the film this time, but also personally serve as the director and producer, and no mistakes are allowed.
Originally, people with Jiang Xiaofeng's status did not need to work anymore, but there was no way. The movie had to be successful, and he had to personally lead the expedition.
After a period of preparation, the film, produced by Century Entertainment Group, directed by Jiang Xiaofeng and co-starring Wang Baoqiang and Liu Haoran, was launched in March 2015 in a low-key manner in Samphanthawang District, Bangkok, Thailand.
Yaowarat Road in Samphanthawang District, Bangkok, is a veritable Chinatown, full of lights, feasting, and the smell of fireworks. It is one of the busiest business districts in downtown Bangkok. Here, more than 70% of Bangkok’s gold shops are gathered here, with prosperous commerce and retaining the strong traditional Chinese style of the last century.
The reason why the film was filmed in Thailand and Chinatown was mainly to facilitate the review and not be too far away from us, the audience.
There is no doubt that the protagonist is still a Chinese, or Chinese, and the audience will feel more involved after watching it.
Jiang Xiaofeng still has connections in Thailand. After all, he had been to Thailand many times before when he was filming "Embarrassed in Thailand 2".
The success of "Embarrassed in Thailand 2" has also brought extremely generous tourism revenue to Thailand. It is also for this reason that Jiang Xiaofeng was not only personally received by the President of Thailand, but also has a very close relationship with the local government.
Therefore, it was much more convenient for Jiang Xiaofeng than other directors to shoot "Detective Chinatown" in Thailand this time.
During the filming in Thailand, Jiang Xiaofeng also took time off to fly back to China because Zuo Xiaoqing gave birth to a daughter when she was ten months pregnant.
As a father and a husband, Jiang Xiaofeng, no matter how busy he was, still found time to stay with Zuo Xiaoqing and his daughter for five days.
But there was nothing he could do. Hundreds of people from the entire crew were waiting for him in Thailand. If he stayed for one more day, the crew would lose millions of dollars. Jiang Xiaofeng quickly left his motherland and went to Thailand to continue filming.
Before leaving the country, Jiang Xiaofeng also gave Zuo Xiaoqing a villa worth 6800 million yuan as a reward for giving birth to his daughter.
2016, April 2.
Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year.
After a series of intensive publicity, the film "Detective Chinatown" with an investment of 7000 million yuan was officially released in this year's Spring Festival.
In the same period, there are also many big-budget films such as "The Mermaid" directed by Zhou Xingchi, "Macau 3" by Wang Jing, "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon 2" by Yuen Woo-Ping, and "Journey to the West: The Monkey King Three Fights the White Bone Demon" by Cheng Baorui. All released on this day.
This can be said to be the most fiercely competitive Spring Festival stall in history.
However, Jiang Xiaofeng did not have high expectations for the box office of the movie "Detective Chinatown". He mainly wanted to lay the foundation for the second, third, and even fourth movie.
Although the movie "Detective Chinatown" stars Wang Baoqiang as the male protagonist, this movie is not a "囧" series, and its influence will definitely decrease.
As long as the movie "Detective Chinatown" can earn 2 million at the box office, the cost can be recovered, so Jiang Xiaofeng has no pressure on the box office. He is more interested in the film's reputation.
Moreover, facing Zhou Xingchi, a powerful competitor, Jiang Xiaofeng was not sure that he could defeat him, so he did not have high expectations.
Sure enough, on the first day of its release, Chow Sing-chi's "Mermaid" contributed 32% of the box office with a 62% screening rate and a 35% attendance rate. It earned million in a single day, becoming the Chinese film with the highest first-day box office in history. The highest-grossing Chinese-language film in history.
Jiang Xiaofeng's "Detective Chinatown" also performed well, with 15% of the film schedule and a box office of 8000 million.
Frankly speaking, this result was a bit beyond Jiang Xiaofeng's expectation. He thought it would be great to get 5000 million, but he didn't expect to get 8000 million.
This is also thanks to his good reputation as a director and Wang Baoqiang's box office appeal.
As the reputation of the movie "Detective Chinatown" was fermented online and offline, on the second day of its release, the film took 16 million at the box office with 8500% of the film schedule, achieving a reversal of box office decline.
Zhou Xingchi's "Mermaid" still dominates the crowd with a crushing attitude. With 34% of the film schedule, it won million box office.
And "Macau 3", which has a poor reputation, even with big names such as Chow Yun-fat, Andy Lau, Jacky Cheung, Nick Cheung, etc., the box office dropped from million to less than 9000 million on the second day of its release, surpassed by "Detective Chinatown" ,Just a matter of time.
I have to admit that sometimes, the public’s eyes are sharp. (End of chapter)
