Chapter 26 News

After being stable for a period of time, the sales volume of Mingxiu Daily began to decline. On Tuesday, the sales volume of the newspaper dropped to 30,000 copies. Cai Zhiliang had no good solution and suffered a headache for a while.

The new version of the tomb-robbing novel is still being serialized, but its sales have been greatly reduced by newspapers that follow suit.

In recent days, newspapers have begun to report some news about the movie "A Better Tomorrow", including some interesting stories about the three leading actors, Chow Yun-fat, Di Long and Leslie Cheung. Perhaps it was a bit dull, and it did not attract much attention for a while.

When Cai Zhiliang returned to the office, Cao Jinling knocked on the door and came in. He handed some photos and clipped newspapers to Cai Zhiliang and said, "This is some news I have collected in the past two days."

Since the sales of the newspaper declined, Cai Zhiliang has been thinking about planning a news that concerns the society, so he thought of Chinese real estate. After all, since last month, there have been rumors about the discord between the Feng and Li families, which is a good opportunity for Cai Zhiliang to practice.

.

"Did you find anything?" Cai Zhiliang asked while looking through the photos and information.

Cao Jinling said: "In recent times, Feng Bingfen and Wei Li have been in frequent contact, but I don't know what they talked about. Coincidentally, Wei Li also had private contact with Li Fuzhao."

Cai Zhiliang decided that the name was a bit unfamiliar and asked, "Who is this Wei Li?"

"This person is known as a corporate doctor and is good at corporate financial arrangements and reorganization. In 1975, he was invited by HSBC to join the board of directors of Hutchison Matheson. He drastically streamlined manpower and ended the loss-making business. Within two years, he brought Hutchison Matheson back to life, and integrated Hutchison Matheson and Whampoa Dockyard.

It was merged into Hutchison Whampoa and later sold to Cheung Kong Holdings, which made it well-known in the port city..." Cao Jinling has already done an investigation and recounted this person's deeds one by one.

After hearing this man's story, Cai Zhiliang asked: "Then what do you think the Feng and Li families' purpose is for contacting Wei Li this time?"

"That's not clear. Maybe Chinese Real Estate wants to reorganize its assets and invites Wei Li to take charge." Cao Jinling shook his head and said. He really didn't understand why Cai Zhiliang paid attention to Chinese Real Estate.

Cai Zhiliang couldn't think of a reason for the moment, so he looked through the information on the table again.

Time passed quietly. After a while, Cai Zhiliang said: "I have always wanted to plan a news event to restore the company's sales. The news of the discord between Chinese Land shareholders was widely circulated some time ago, but there has been no news in recent days.

, I was wondering if there were some inside stories that I could dig out."

Cai Zhiliang mainly wants to know when Chinese real estate will change. After all, this is related to his stock returns. If he can dig out big news, he can also save a wave of newspaper sales.

Cao Jinling disagreed and said: "This kind of news about shareholders' discord in listed companies appears from time to time. It's not surprising."

Cai Zhiliang selected a piece of news, handed it to Cao Jinling and said, "Look at this."

This is a piece of gossip: Li Fuzhao sold the Chinese Real Estate shares he held to Wei Li.

Cao Jinling took a look and said: "This kind of tabloid is not credible. Uncle Bao said that Chinese Real Estate is also a high-quality stock and has been rising steadily recently. There is no need for Li Fuzhao to sell his shares at this time.

And it was sold to an outsider."

Cai Zhiliang said: "But Wei Li did have contact with Li Fuzhao. If this is true, does it mean that Wei Li is acquiring Chinese Real Estate?"

"Chinese Real Estate has hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars in assets. How could Wei Li have so much money, unless he was entrusted by others." Cao Jinling was in the news after all, and he quickly gave a reasonable explanation.

Cai Zhiliang couldn't think of any other explanation. He pointed at the news and said, "Contact this newspaper as soon as possible and ask about the source of the news. Maybe others have noticed it."

"I will deal with it as soon as possible." After Cao Jinling finished speaking, he stood up and left.

"Dingling bell..."

Cai Zhiliang picked up the phone and said, "Hello, I'm Cai Zhiliang."

"Zhiliang, it's me, Zhao Shuo." Zhao Shuo's voice came from the phone, "I just came out of Xu Ke's place. The situation is not very good. The current budget cost is 4 million."

"So many..." Even though Zhao Shuo had vaccinated him before, Cai Zhiliang was still a little shocked.

"Yes, there is also a share of the box office. Xu Ke's studio will get 5%, and investors can only get 40%." Sure enough, as Zhao Shuo said, the situation is indeed not good, and Xu Ke really wants to pursue art.

Cai Zhiliang asked: "Is there any company currently investing in him?"

"That's not clear. However, with Lin Qingxia, Zhong Chuhong and Ye Qianwen's film contracts, coupled with Xu Ke's box office appeal, there should be hope for this movie to have a box office of over 10 million. There must be companies willing to invest." Zhao

Shuo analyzed the current situation.

"Then let's invest 1 million as originally discussed." Cai Zhiliang made a decision quickly.

Zhao Shuo agreed: "Okay, I'll go over and talk to them in the afternoon."

"When will the movie start shooting?" Movie companies in Hong Kong usually hold a worship ceremony when they start shooting, and Cai Zhiliang also wanted to see it.

"The 25th of this month."

"Notify me on that day and I will go and have a look."

After deciding on the matter of "Daoma Dan", Cai Zhiliang left the rest to Zhao Shuo.

As Cao Jinling continued to investigate at the newspaper, news about Chinese real estate was continuously passed to Cai Zhiliang's office, and the truth of the matter gradually became clear.

Li Fuzhao did sell his shares to Wei Li.

The reason for selling the shares was actually due to a conflict between the Li brothers. Li Fuzhao sold his Chinese Land shares to Wei Li in anger.

As for Wei Li's frequent contact with Feng Bingfen, the reason is unknown.

Later, Cai Zhiliang went to Bao Guowei's office and told Bao Guowei the news about Chinese real estate that he had learned these days.

Bao Guowei closed his eyes, leaned on the back of his chair, and after a while, said: "What's Jinling's opinion?"

Cai Zhiliang said: "At first we thought that Wei Li wanted to acquire Chinese Real Estate, but Jinling felt that Wei Li did not have such great financial resources, and there should be someone behind the scenes. But after figuring out the reasons behind Wei Li's acquisition of shares, we were confused again

Now that Wei Li is in frequent contact with Feng Bingfen, he can’t just want to resell his shares to Feng Bingfen.”

Bao Guowei said calmly: "That's not impossible. Maybe the person behind Wei Li's acquisition of Li Fuzhao's shares was Feng Bingfen. That would explain it."

Cai Zhiliang said: "Feng Bingfen plus the shares originally belonging to Li Fuzhao only amount to more than 30%, which does not form an absolute majority. This Wei Li does not seem to have contact with other members of the Li family."

Bao Guowei said: "Next week, Chinese Land will hold its annual shareholder meeting. Feng Bingfen only needs to become a major shareholder. Besides, how do you know that they have not secretly recycled the shares? Aren't you investing in Chinese Land's stocks?"

Jiang is still old and spicy. Cai Zhiliang then asked: "If this matter is exposed, I think a lot of people will pay attention."

Bao Guowei said: "Don't wait any longer, some news is still uncertain."

Cai Zhiliang shook his head and said: "Time waits for no one. Maybe other newspapers are already working overtime. Besides, news doesn't have to be so conclusive."
