Chapter 641 Buying a Property
The first phase of New City Plaza is very large.
It is divided into two wings, the north and the south, connected by a pedestrian bridge in the middle. It has two floors underground and five floors above ground. It is directly accessible from the subway station exit. The transportation is very convenient.
It is best to build a movie theater during the planning of the shopping mall, because the hardware conditions of the movie theater are standardized, such as height, width, load-bearing, etc. Chen Qi now wants to build his first multiplex theater, which can only be embedded in a completed shopping mall.
.
Then it has to be built in conjunction with the shopping mall. The same goes for China Resources. Of course, based on his subjective wishes, at least 5 halls are needed.
Chen Qi doesn't know how to design and needs to find professionals. He is here to take a look at the environment today.
"10 yuan per square foot?"
"The new plaza has opened. The lease is long and the area is large, so it's cheaper. It's 10 yuan per square foot. Boss, if you rent 20,000 square feet, it only costs more than 2 million a year. Looking at you as a handsome guy, you must be capable!"
"I don't have the strength, but you praise me for being handsome, and I'm very happy."
"I can't help it, I just speak so straightly!"
Jiang Zhiqiang watched Chen Qi pay a private visit in disguise and flirt with a staff member of the shopping mall, and whispered: "Is Mr. Chen always so friendly to the people?"
"I've only been here a few days, I don't know!" Gu Weili said.
"Then after I come here, should we call each other gay?"
"You can feel free to do this. There are no hard and fast rules. However, the company's treatment is really good. Houses, meals, transportation, and communications are all subsidized. The key is prestige. You don't have to be humble. Wow!"
"I have a house and a car, so I don't need it."
After all, Jiang Zhiqiang is a second generation, much better than Gu Weili. In fact, he has always been puzzled. He has not shown much talent. Why did Mr. Chen choose him as his assistant?
After much deliberation, there is only one reason: protons!
I stayed on the left as a hostage so that my eldest brother and my father could work safely.
The three of them walked around for a long time and looked at the residential buildings under construction. Chen Qi asked: "How much can the houses here sell for?"
"According to the current market price, one foot is 600 yuan!" Gu Weili said.
"How can there be 600 yuan? Taikoo Shing is only 700 yuan! Mei Foo Sun Estate is only 600 yuan, and the price in Tsuen Wan has dropped to 500 yuan!" Jiang Zhiqiang understands very well.
"500? Is there anything cheaper?"
"I heard that there is a building with a price of 300 yuan, but I don't dare to live in it."
"Then it's usually 500-600/foot?"
"Almost! The price has dropped sharply in the past two years. I remember that in 1981, Taikoo Shing sold it for 1,100 yuan."
At 500 yuan per square foot, a 500-square-foot house costs more than 200,000 Hong Kong dollars. It won’t take long, and it will rise to more than 1 million by the early 1990s, and another zero will be added in a few decades!
Chen Qi didn't go there for the appreciation in value in a few decades, that's too far away - the book has been written and it hasn't arrived yet.
At present, it is not a problem for everyone to live in Yindu dormitory all the time. The company needs to have some financial resources of its own. This time he plans to borrow 20 million to 30 million, part of which will buy houses and shops, and part of which will build a theater.
The house was used as a dormitory, and the shop was used for the expansion of video tapes and fan clubs.
No matter what happens in the future, at least some industry will be left to Dongchang.
"The heart of my boxing can be learned from the sun and the moon!"
Chen Qi was moved. Since he bought a house, it makes sense to keep a cadre house for himself, right?
As for the land, there is no hope. He cannot engage in real estate. The land he needs is to build a large comprehensive studio, with a main building, dormitories, studios, and post-production workshops. The studio is a special-purpose institution in Hong Kong. He has to apply to the Hong Kong government and it was approved.
Only then was the land allocated.
There are already film studios in the capital, and with Hong Kong's moral character, it is unlikely that it will grant another one to a Chinese-funded company.
…………
After waiting for a few days, China Resources acted quickly.
Guo Yourong met with him again and said: "The leaders did not dare to agree to the long-term strategic cooperation you mentioned, but they agreed to build a theater. It is not in the main building. It is a bit nondescript to build the theater in an office building. You accept it in the auxiliary building."
What?"
"The annex building is okay, but it's easier to plan!"
"That's good, but the time needs to be postponed until we complete the project."
"It's okay, no delay!"
Chen Qi nodded, and he would build the first store in Shatin first and the second store in China Resources.
In fact, the first multiplex theater in Hong Kong was built in New Town Plaza in Shatin. It had 6 halls, so it was called UA6. It later developed into UA Cinemas.
"And what about the publicity thing you mentioned?" Guo Yourong was a little embarrassed.
"No problem! Come to the set someday and we'll officially connect."
"Okay, thank you so much! To be honest, we have been rooted in Hong Kong for many years, and our publicity has always been, well, you know... we have never been in contact with you in the past, but everyone loves to watch your program, and you are in the newspaper
Every time an article is published, Chinese paper is expensive!”
“Don’t take it seriously, don’t take it seriously!”
The two of them were chatting on the first floor of China Resources when suddenly a man came in through the door. He saw Guo Yourong waving to him as a greeting and hurriedly got on the elevator.
Chen Qi didn't recognize him and asked casually: "Who is this?"
"Oh, people from Huake."
"Huake Electronics? I think I've heard of it."
"Yes, our joint venture with a Hong Kong company produces electronic watches, electronic toys and integrated circuit chips. The performance is not very good and we are losing money."
“Can I still lose money by making electronic watches?”
"I'm not sure, it's not a system."
This is not a secret within Chinese capital, so Guo Yourong answered casually.
He stayed with Chen Qi for another meal. They were very sorry that there was no braised pork belly in Hong Kong. They agreed that if they met in the capital, they would have two bowls of braised pork and two large intestines to enjoy themselves.
Chen Qi came out after dinner. The theater affairs were finally settled. The next step was to find professionals.
The main thing is to establish an online relationship with China Resources, so we can have more contacts.
…………
night.
After Zhuang Cheng met with Lei Juekun, he returned home smelling of alcohol.
He washed himself and lay on the bed, suddenly feeling very funny.
Lei Juekun came to find him, naturally for the film source of Princess Jin. Legendary Pictures currently only has one film "The Wrong Ride". Lei Juekun felt that the box office would not be very good, but in order to win over Zhuang Cheng, he was sincere and willing to pay more
A 10% share of the account.
In the absence of instructions from Chen Qi, Zhuang Cheng had the discretion to think about it and agreed. At the same time, he also brought up the unnecessary Spring Festival film that he talked about before, hoping that Princess Jin would keep the best schedule for himself.
Lei Juekun was very happy.
Zhuang Cheng is also a thief now. This New Year's film was originally fake, but if he can really make one, then it will be released directly to the left, Mr. Chen will be very happy.
"Oh yes, I almost forgot!"
Zhuang Cheng was about to fall asleep when he suddenly remembered and called his boss.
"To report a few things, I promised Lei Juekun to put "The Wrong Ride" on Princess Jin!"
"Yes, yes!"
""The Wrong Ride" will be released in Taiwan next month, and then I will sign up for the Golden Horse."
"good!"
"I really want to make that Spring Festival film."
"You decide for yourself."
After a few words and hanging up, Zhuang Cheng fell asleep with peace of mind.
Legendary Pictures is booming. "Mr. Zombie" closed with a box office of 20 million and sold at a good price overseas.
The Taiwanese film producers spent 4 million Hong Kong dollars, and the Japanese actually liked it very much. They paid 1 million U.S. dollars, and the two businesses earned more than 10 million Hong Kong dollars. In the environment where Chen Qi committed a taboo by introducing Western films, all his colleagues
Like: There is a new generation from China who can compete overseas. Sooner or later, he will surpass the mainland boys!
Historically, "Mr. Zombie" has taken nearly NT$100 million in Taiwan and about 650 million yen in Japan. It is not as good as Cheng Long and Li Lianjie, but compared to others, it is already a slut. This kind of ghost culture is popular in East and Southeast Asia.
They are all connected.
Zhuang Cheng is also getting better and can compete with his boss.
(There will be more tonight...)
