As time entered 1986, the administrative buildings of Tseung Kwan O Film and Television City had been added to six buildings, including Phoenix TV, Oriental Dream Factory Film Company, Oriental Entertainment Brokerage Company, Oriental Entertainment Distribution Company, Fengxing Record Company, Oriental Film and Television Production Company, Qimeng Film and Television Special Effects Special Company, Dark Horse Comics Company, and Dark Horse Animation Company, which has no official works.

Among them, Oriental Film and Television Production Company, the former TV Production Department of Oriental Dream Factory, was officially independent at the end of 1985 to provide film programs for Phoenix TV and Macau Satellite TV. Through Oriental Entertainment Distribution Company, TV series and variety shows were sold to East Asia.

After careful consideration by the Portuguese-Macao government, Macau TV finally publicly stated that it would accept private funds to invest, but except Kang Jianfei, no fool would go to spend money.

On New Year's Day, the Portuguese-Macao Government and Macau TV issued an announcement announcing that Macau TV would be renamed Macau Satellite TV on January 25, 1986, and announced the shares of the TV station. Among them, the Portuguese-Macao government holds 35% of the shares, Macau Gambling Co., Ltd. holds 10% of the shares, and the remaining 55% of the TV station shares are owned by Kang Jianfei personally.

Even though Kang Jianfei made a plan for the development of the TV station, both the Portuguese-Macao government and the gambling king He Hongsen had no hope for the profit of the Macau TV station. Since Kang Jianfei, the sucker, was willing to take over, the Portuguese-Macao government and the Macau Gambling Company were willing to give up the shares in their hands, and both sides took the needs, one was willing to fight and the other was willing to be beaten.

...

No. 18 Bai Road, Jardine Valley, one of the many properties of the gambling king in Hong Kong, He Chaoqiong, who was six months pregnant, was "house arrest" here.

He Hongsen intends to marry his daughter to Kang Jianfei, especially after He Chaoqiong became pregnant. Whether it is traditional or religious reasons, he does not allow his daughter to have an abortion. However, He Hongsen has regretted this recently. Kang Jianfei has already let go of the marriage, but He Chaoqiong, who is pregnant, will never marry.

After all, it is not a glorious thing to get pregnant before marriage, but He Chaoqiong is now pregnant for six months. Even if He Hongsen agrees to her abortion, the best period has passed.

Fortunately, He Chaoqiong has calmed down and has not cried and made a fuss like he did when he was pregnant. Now he is very cooperative with family care and insists on doing some pregnancy exercises every day, and is very prepared to be a single mother.

With the development to this current situation, He Hongsen has a complicated impression of Kang Jianfei. He not only appreciates Kang Jianfei's talents, but also blames Kang Jianfei for making his daughter's belly bigger.

As for Kang Jianfei, since his daughter Kang Zhenqi was born, he has taken seriously the children in He Chaoqiong's belly. He always comes to No. 18 Gubai Road to visit once or twice a month.

This time, He Hongsen returned to Hong Kong to live (the gambling king stayed in Hong Kong for two-thirds of his time. The mansions he bought for several wives were also in Hong Kong), and asked Kang Jianfei to have dinner at home. He planned to go back to Macau to take care of business after the Spring Festival.

After Kang Jianfei entered the door, he took off his coat and handed it to the servant, took out a small box and said, "Uncle, this is a small gift I gave to Ah Qiong. She never wants to see me. Why bother you to hand it over."

"Aqiong is really. He is not sensible at all." He Hongsen shook his head and sighed.

Kang Jianfei pretended to be an honest child and admitted his mistake: "It's all wrong for me, I shouldn't be messing around after drinking."

"Oh, I won't say it anymore," He Hongsen waved his hand and asked Kang Jianfei to sit casually. "The "Shushan" in your company sells very well. During the time I returned to Hong Kong, I can see the news about "Shushan" in the newspaper every day."

Kang Jianfei smiled and said, "It's just good luck."

He Hongsen asked, as if his elders were concerned about his younger generation's career, “I heard that Shushan invested 80 million Hong Kong dollars. Now there is a global box office, can he recover the investment?”

Kang Jianfei is still very concerned about the release of "Shushan" during this period, and his box office data is open: "Now "Shushan" has been released in 17 countries and regions around the world, including France, West Germany, Italy, Greece, Belgium, Iceland, Netherlands, Spain, Portugal, Canada, the United States, and Japan. The global box office data counted three days ago was 98.73 million."

He Hongsen only knew that "Shushan" was very popular, but he never paid attention to how many box offices it had won. When he heard that it was 95.73 million, he subconsciously thought that its unit was Hong Kong dollars, and comforted him: "The box office of nearly 100 million yuan is already quite large, and there are still many areas that have not been released, so it should still be able to recover the cost."

Kang Jianfei had to add: "I'm talking about US dollars."

"What?" He Hongsen's wealth was also shocked and asked, "You mean the box office of "Shushan" is more than 90 million US dollars and more than 700 million Hong Kong dollars?"

"Yes," Kang Jianfei nodded, "nearly half of the box office of more than $90 million comes from Japan. You know, the yen has appreciated rapidly in the past year."

Perhaps because the competition for Christmas in North America is too fierce, "Shushan" only won $12.94 million in North America, which is not as good as the former "Sister Royal" series. (Of course, from another perspective, the North American box office of $12.94 million is actually good, and it can already rank among the top 30 of the North American box office list last year.)

However, "Shushan" has performed extremely well in Europe. When it was released in various European countries, it was ranked among the top three in the weekly box office list, as if a Chinese whirlwind was blowing in Europe.

In Asia, the performance of "Shushan" was simply eye-catching. It sold $1.87 million in Singapore alone, successfully breaking the record set by "Shaolin Temple" in Singapore.

Especially in Japan, due to the lack of East-West cultural barriers, Japanese people like "Shushan" much more than Europeans and Americans. This oriental blockbuster caused a sensation in Japan as soon as it was released.

As the world's second largest film market, Japan has traveled through time since 1980 to the time when Kang Jianfei traveled through time, for more than 30 years, only 10 of the top 50 Japanese box office lists were Japanese films, and among them Hayao Miyazaki's cartoons accounted for as many as 4. Among the top 50 Japanese box office lists, except for a few Chinese and 10 Japanese films, all of the others are Hollywood blockbusters.

As a scarce Hong Kong blockbuster, "Shushan" not only contains the aesthetic taste of oriental people, but also has Hollywood special effects and heroic adventures. It is simply a magical film tailor-made for Japanese people who like to watch Hollywood blockbusters. In addition, "Shushan" just won an award at the Tokyo Film Festival, which makes the film more convenient for its promotion and distribution in Japan.

From Christmas to the first half of the month of spring, "Shushan" scored 8.8 billion yen in Japan. Although it is still a big gap from the box office record of 15 billion yen set by "ET Alien" a few years ago, it successfully became the second largest movie in Japan's history.

As for the blockbuster "Ruan" by Japanese film master Kurosawa last year, it only won 1.6 billion yen in Japan, and its results were only one-sixth of "Shushan".

"Shushan" can be regarded as a huge profit in Japan, because the yen has been appreciating rapidly in recent years. In the past 1985, the exchange rate of the yen against the US dollar at the beginning of the year was still 255 to 1, and it had risen to 200 to 1 by the end of the year. When "Shushan" was painted in Japan, the exchange rate of the yen had soared to 180 to 1.

The box office of 8.8 billion yen is equivalent to USD 48.78 million, which is more than 390 million for Hong Kong dollars.

It can be said that just talking about the box office in Japan is enough to make a big profit by recovering the cost of "Shushan".

Generally speaking, it is very rare for the global box office of Hong Kong films to exceed HK$100 million. However, "Shushan" has not been released in some countries, and the box office has reached nearly US$100 million, which is simply staggering.

"The younger generation is terrifying, and the younger generation is terrifying." He Hongsen couldn't help but sigh. He and Shio Yifu were friends, so he naturally knew how amazing it was to get the box office of Hong Kong films.

The news has not been known to the Hong Kong media. Once it is exposed, you can imagine what kind of sensation it will cause.

After chatting about movies for a while, the topic turned to Macau TV. He Hongsen asked: "A Fei, are you sure about Macau TV?"

"You'll know if you try it?" Kang Jianfei smiled.

In another week, Macau Satellite TV was officially reorganized and started broadcasting. At this time, the studio and studio of Tseung Kwan O Film and Television City were producing TV programs in full swing.
