Huanya Building

Lu Hang is busy reviewing a large number of documents, mostly tedious daily work, some expenses that require the chairman’s authorization, personnel transfers and new store application reports, etc.

Worked at the desk for a long time

Lu Hang straightened up and rubbed his sour neck. Most of the files that were originally high were wiped out, but there were only a few left.

He held two unreviewed documents in his hand;

One is the box office audit report of Oriental Pictures on "A Comic Travels to the World", which achieved a remarkable record of HK$19.77 million in four weeks. The buyout income in Southeast Asia and Japan and South Korea was HK$12.3 million. After deducting various expenses and issuance costs, it made a net profit of more than 12 million. It was a big profit and achieved a good start.

This result was firmly ranked seventh in the box office rankings of Hong Kong films in the first half of 1988, and the male lead Zhou Xingxing became a hit.

Among them

Because Oriental Pictures is newly opened, it purchased a large amount of equipment and equipment during the shooting, all of which were included in the production cost.

For example, five movie cameras, high-altitude rocker arms, various lighting cables, clothing props and film editing machines, etc., as well as purchasing special warehouses, commuting vehicles, etc.

This part of the cost is about four million, and it is all invested in the cost of the video, otherwise the profit will be much higher.

The pay of Zhou Xingxing, a contracted artist of the company, soared to HK$600,000, and the pay of Jacky Cheung, a supporting actor, rose to HK$200,000, successfully achieving a counterattack in his life.

The situation of a film that makes its artists famous is popular among Oriental Pictures, and it demonstrates the outstanding operating capabilities of the new company.

It is precisely because of the success of "A Comic to the World", that Zhou Xingxing and Jacky Cheung received a large number of filming invitations and magnificently advanced to the ranks of second-rate movie stars.

The company's agency department carefully selected film contracts for it, and will prepare a new film project, planning to invest HK$8.5 million to film "The Trick Expert". It is still directed by Liu Zhenweida and starring Zhou Xingxing, continuing the nonsensical comedy style that is popular in the market.

One trick can be eaten all over the world.

Luhang looked at it, approved the application documents and specifically stated it;

Zhou Xingxing is a very spiritual actor. He tries to give him enough creative space to carry forward the nonsensical comedy style.

The second document is the case of Liu Luanxiong, chairman of the listed company Chinese Real Estate, formally suing Crazy Zai for serious injury and civil compensation, including an investigation letter sent by the other party's attorney and corresponding background introduction.

After more than 40 days of being admitted to the hospital for treatment, Liu Luanxiong has been discharged from the hospital and returned to his luxury home. The hospital regularly arranges medical staff to follow up.

In response to this case

Chaoshan tycoon Li Jiacheng said when visiting the mansion;

The Hong Kong and British government police should seriously investigate the case and must not allow the murderers to escape legal sanctions and maintain the good business environment in Hong Kong and the safety of legitimate businessmen.

This statement is to support the young fellow villager Liu Luanxiong and put pressure on the British Hong Kong government from a distance. This pressure will eventually fall on Huanya Company.

The opinions of the Hong Kong Chaoshan Chamber of Commerce have changed, and the situation is very unfavorable to the new Huanya Company and Hong Kong Universal Holdings. We can already feel the pressure from all aspects.

Sir John Schwarz, the person in charge of British Swire Group, also expressed dissatisfaction, believing that the deterioration of public security in Hong Kong will have a great impact on the international image and business environment.

Lu Hang felt heavy pressure, he lit a cigarette and smoked twice, stood up in annoyance and paced back and forth in the office.

As a top wealthy family in Hong Kong, Li Jiacheng has great influence in this oriental metropolis. With the Chaoshan Chamber of Commerce backed by the Chaoshan Chamber of Commerce, he has weaved a network of close relationships from top to bottom for decades, which is definitely not something that business juniors like him can challenge.

His attitude is enough to hinder the future development of Land Airlines, which is quite unfavorable.

British-owned Swire Group was stabbed in the back at this time, it had nothing to do with its position, but only a dispute over interests.

The publicly listed Swire Company is headquartered in Hong Kong. From the perspective of its corporate structure, its core business belongs to five business departments: real estate, aviation, beverages, marine services and trade and industry.

It is a transnational behemoth with Hong Kong as its base and its tentacles extending to the world.

Not to mention other business scopes, the beverage, clothing retail and other businesses of Swire Group alone have head-on conflicts with two companies under Mainland Airlines, and the dispute over interests is very obvious.

The emergence of Boba Milk Tea has had a huge blow to Swire Beverage business, seizing a considerable amount of market share, directly affecting the other party's stable revenue.

The relationship between Swire and Coca-Cola began in 1965. Swire acquired most of the shares in Coca-Cola Hong Kong's specialty business and renamed it Swire Coca-Cola Hong Kong Co., Ltd.

It acquired the Coca-Cola Bottlement Company in Salt Lake City, USA in 1978. The following year, the first batch of Coca-Cola was exported to Yanjing, Yangcheng and the Magic City in China.

Swire owns 11 states in the United States and Hong Kong in China, and seven provinces in Taiwan and the Mainland have franchise rights to manufacture, promote and distribute Coca-Cola products, with a franchise area covering more than 670 million people.

It is one of Coca-Cola's global strategic business partners and has been designated as the "main contributor manufacturer".

Swire also cooperated closely with Coca-Cola to jointly develop and market promotion.

The Coca-Cola beverage business provides Swire Group with stable profits every year, and is its undefeated cash cow and is highly valued.

Now

The fashionable and casual drinks Boba milk tea are popular in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Macau, and the entire Southeast Asia, Japan and South Korea. The carbonated beverages Coca-Cola and Sprite are losing steadily, losing more than half of their market share and their revenue has also shrunk sharply.

Cutting off people's wealth is like killing parents.

Not to mention that Hong Kong Universal Holdings, which made a brilliant debut, entered the brand clothing industry with a high profile and purchased permanent authorization for Playboy brand clothing, leather luggage and glasses at a large price of $3.1 billion.

These are all the traditional business areas of Swire Trading. Faced with the aggressive rising stars, the huge Swire Group has to be cautious.

With the dazzling achievements of the rise of the comet of the mainland, the "trend brands" and Playboy brand clothing are widely advertised overseas, and the comprehensive promotion of store network construction, the ambition of ambition to do something big is coming.

Swire Group took action to suppress it, and everything was reasonable, and it was only a struggle for interests.

Think carefully

Lu Hang calmly extinguished the cigarette butts in his hand, and a confident smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

I expected that Li Jiacheng's statement was so positive that he saw Luhang's large-scale acquisition of real estate properties sold by British-backed companies, which touched his cake.

Otherwise, Liu Luanxiong was not his son, so why did he work so hard to stand up for him?

It is up to the struggle for interests.

Since everything is clear, Lu Hang is confident;

No matter how many means you can do, I can only break it with one force.

Now is definitely not the time to compete with these two giants, it is all things that stupid idiots do.

How can a toddler compete with an adult strong man? He is too stupid. Are you afraid that he will not die fast enough?

Thankfully;

Huanya Company has only 36 direct-operated stores in Hong Kong, with 80% of its profits coming from Fusang Country, and the remaining 17% come from Japan, South Korea and other places, with Hong Kong's revenue accounting for less than 3%.

Other retail networks such as Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia and West Asia are under construction, and the profits they can contribute are very small, so they will be ignored for the time being.

No matter how powerful Li Jiacheng and Swire Group are in Hong Kong and Southeast Asia, they cannot reach Japan, South Korea, New Zealand and other countries, and their impact on Huanya Company is minimal.

The same is true for Hong Kong Universal Holdings. A large number of heavy assets are in mainland China, Europe and the United States, and production and sales are not in Hong Kong, and even re-export trade can be placed in Malaysia. No matter how big Lee Ka-shing and Swire Group are, they can only sigh.

Thinking of this, Lu Hang showed a smile that was sure to win;
Chapter completed!
