Chapter 106 Film Studios and Theme Parks
Fang Hexuan was speechless at Jiu Wenlong's answer.
Is this what I am asking you? Don’t I know whether they have killed anyone or not?

Jiu Wenlong is really not suitable to be a qualified bodyguard, all he cares about is the world of martial arts.

With the arrival of new bodyguards, most of the previous bodyguards will need to be dismissed.

Fortunately, I found someone from a bodyguard company, so I only had to pay a certain amount of liquidated damages and a few months' salary.

Jiu Wenlong cannot unload his burden for the time being. He needs to take Xu Guohua and others to familiarize themselves with the roads in Hong Kong.

Especially the route that Fang Hexuan often takes to travel between various companies.

In addition, he also had to introduce to them the basic situation of Hong Kong's underground societies.

This handover period may last for a week.

Since the Central land that we bought previously has not started construction yet,
Fang Hexuan has never had his own group headquarters.

He still spends most of his time working at Wanda.

Looking at the itinerary submitted by the assistant,
He just found out that Jackie Chan's first Hollywood movie "The Trench" will be released tomorrow, September 9th.

DreamWorks hopes its boss will be able to attend the film premiere tomorrow.

Judging from the time, the movie "Killer Trench" is a B-level movie.

Jackie Chan went to Hollywood in April, which means that the film took less than five months to complete shooting and post-production.

This is unthinkable in Hollywood.

Of course, this is also related to the small budget given by DreamWorks and the tight time requirements.

If a Hollywood crew stays open for one more day, DreamWorks will have to spend a lot more money.

Fang Hexuan no longer invests money in DreamWorks.

Therefore, DreamWorks needs to be thrifty and control costs that could have been avoided.

He had no expectations for Jackie Chan's Hollywood debut.
I believe that the box office in the United States, where the film was released at the same time as Hong Kong, will not be that impressive either.

DreamWorks has invested more than 600 million US dollars, and senior executives including Selina Chow are also thinking about it.

But if you know that the boss's purpose of investing in this movie is just to appease Jackie Chan,

I'm afraid he will roll his eyes at his boss.

In order to make this first film co-produced with Hollywood a big hit,

DreamWorks invested another 300 million Hong Kong dollars in publicity and promotion.

Fang Hexuan didn't know this, and even if he did, he wouldn't stop it.

This was Jackie Chan's first taste of failure in Hollywood.

It is more necessary than spending 300 million Hong Kong dollars.

Only in this way will the Bignose Dragon continue to be his good worker.

At five o'clock in the afternoon of the next day, he went to TVB to pick up Miki Takakura to attend the premiere together.

Takakura Beauty has been having a hard time these days.
During the day, I have to learn Cantonese while also practicing my body movements and performance techniques.

At night, she has to endure the abuse from Mr. Fang, the richest man.

This is a painful and happy memory.

She took the initiative to chat with Fang Hexuan in the car about some interesting things she had learned recently at TVB.

For example, a person from the same period as her named Huang Rihua was signed by TVB as an actor as soon as he joined the art training class.

For example, there was a student named Michael Miu in the same class as her. He was very narcissistic and always liked to show off in front of the female students.

"Haha, did he flirt with you?" "He wouldn't dare to do that even if he had a hundred guts. Everyone in the station doesn't know that you were the one who brought me in."

Takakura was speechless at Fang Hexuan's teasing question.
She rolled her eyes somewhat arrogantly, which made Fang Hexuan laugh out loud.

After attending the premiere, the two returned to the Peninsula Hotel.

Following behind them were Jiu Wenlong, Xu Guohua and Wei Dayong.
Others were waiting in a sedan outside the hotel.

Xu Guohua watched as Mr. Fang, the richest man, hugged that Japanese woman and talked and laughed all the way.
The sense of absurdity in my heart is particularly strong.

Last year, they were fighting for their lives on the battlefields of Vietnam,
This year, the city of Hong Kong has witnessed the decay and degeneration of capitalism.

Even though it was so incongruous, he still focused on observing everything around him.

The story of Mr. Fang and the Japanese woman is almost known to everyone in the Peninsula Hotel.

After all, ever since this woman moved in, the richest man has come to the peninsula many times more often than before.

That night, there were still flashes of swords and gunfire.

It was not until three o'clock in the morning, after the two men had arrived at Wushan, that they called off the battle.

At nine o'clock the next day, Fang Hexuan left the Peninsula Hotel but did not cross the sea to return to Wanda.

Instead, he went directly to Tseung Kwan O with his bodyguards.

In 1978, he told reporters that he would build a film and television shooting base and a DreamWorks Entertainment Creative Industry Park in the next three years.

This is not bragging in front of the media just to get coverage.

In fact, when he was planning to build the Magnum Cinema Line in March,
We have already applied to the Hong Kong government to buy land in Tseung Kwan O to build a film and television base and theme park.

That’s right, his original plan was to build the creative industry park into a DreamWorks movie theme park, similar to Disneyland and Universal Studios.

In this time and space, those super IPs will only belong to Fang Hexuan’s creativity or exclusive copyright.

For example, original IPs such as "Jurassic Park", "Pirates of the Caribbean", "Harry Potter", "Transformers", "Kung Fu Panda", "Cars", "Toy Story", "Wall-E", "Finding Nemo", "Minions", and "Frozen".

There are also a series of Marvel comic movie characters, and even the mainland's "Mulan", "Calabash Brothers", "The Magic Brush", "Shuke and Beta", "Boonie Bears" and so on will be taken by Fang Hexuan.

So many IP characters and stories will become the IP images of DreamWorks Theme Park.

This is also the main reason why he is confident in building DreamWorks into a global film and television industry group.

As for what the other major Hollywood film studios think, haha, they just use those few tricks.

If Fang Hexuan wants to do something, he can't always hesitate because he is worried about the danger ahead.

Since the proposal submitted by Fang Hexuan positioned these two parks to promote the development of Hong Kong's tourism industry,
Therefore, these two plots of land received land price concessions from the Hong Kong government.

Moreover, it was still 1980 and development in Tseung Kwan O had not yet started, so the land price was not expensive.

Fang Hexuan drew a rough range on the map with great pride.

Finally, it was confirmed by the Lands Department that the land area reached 285 million square meters, or 475 acres.

The two sides bargained and finally agreed on a land price of HK$420 per square meter.

The total land price to be paid to the Hong Kong government is HK$11.97 billion.

Of course, this can be paid in installments, and the Hong Kong government has given a three-year period.

After signing the contract, Xinchang Group immediately started the ground cleaning work on the land.

At present, the foundation work has begun in Tseung Kwan O.

DreamWorks Studios and DreamWorks Theme Park will be next to each other.
At that time, it will be convenient for tourists to experience and play in the entire area.
