Hong Kong's new giants

As for "GOOD" becoming an instant hit in the future, its sales can not only catch up with "Family Gang", but also because of the big sales of celebrity cards, the profit will exceed that of "Family Gang", then these people should regret it!

Everyone has no doubts. The boss still has money to invest, which is another matter. They are not qualified to manage so much; as for the recruitment, it is just a way to reserve talents.If the boss really wants to use the company's money to start a new magazine, everyone has no right to stop it.

No one asked about the direction of the new magazine, after all, this is the boss's secret.

……

"Men's Clothes" has emerged as a sudden force. With sales of more than 6 copies per issue, it has become the best-selling weekly magazines in Hong Kong, which shocked the entire industry for a while.

At the same time, Zheng Jinghan, the business development director of Sing Tao Newspaper, resigned to start a business, and obtained the authorization from the American "Playboy", and the news that he wanted to run a high-end men's magazine also spread like wildfire.

The news was released by "Sing Tao Daily" itself, and it seems to be waving the flag for Zheng Jinghan.

Lin Zuhui didn't expect Zheng Jinghan to react so quickly, and immediately felt a great pressure; Zheng Jinghan was a publishing tycoon in his previous life, backed by the Sing Tao Group, and had better conditions than Lin Zuhui in all aspects.

Now the magazine he runs is the same type of magazine, one can imagine how fierce the competition is!

Of course, "Men Gang" is not without advantages:

First, it can start for at least two months and occupy the market;

Second, many concepts have already been used by FHM. If the Chinese version of Playboy plagiarizes, it will definitely affect its reputation. If it does not plagiarize, it will be difficult to develop a high-quality men's magazine.

Therefore, in terms of odds, "Fm Gang" is still slightly higher.

There is a case in my previous life: In 1990, "Next Magazine", which cost 4500 million Hong Kong dollars, came out, and immediately caused a sensation in Hong Kong with the high cost of starting the publication. It cost tens of millions of dollars at every turn, announcing that the era of copycat media industry has become history.And "Next Magazine" is a comprehensive magazine with rich pictures and texts, readers can obtain information and entertain themselves.Coupled with the relentless publicity of the journal, the circulation has been rising steadily, and it has broken through the 2400 mark in two years, with a net profit of [-] million Hong Kong dollars a year.

Ma Fenkun, the owner of Oriental Press Group, was delighted to see Liexin, and wanted to take a share of "Next Magazine". In 1992, Oriental Newspaper launched "East Weekly". In terms of layout, subject matter, etc., it gives people the impression that they have learned a lot from "Next Magazine".

In the end, "Next Magazine" broke through 20 copies, "East Weekly" only cost 15, and "Next Magazine" was even better.Of course, both of them are not good things, one was later detained, and the other is the White Horse Family; these two weekly magazines are also not good things, they belong to gossip magazines and are deeply hated by the celebrity circle.

Although "Men's Clothes" and "GOOD" both have news from the entertainment industry, they are definitely moderate in nature. They learn from "Ming Pao Weekly"; even, the main content is not entertainment gossip, and the content of gossip is only a small part.

For Zheng Jinghan's "despicable behavior", Lin Zuhui can't just let it go if he wants to use his powerful resources to suppress "FHM" magazine only one month after its release.

After all, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Zheng Jinghan is jealous of the achievements of "FHM" and immediately wants to join this field; but his popularity is too ugly, at least it will take a few months to talk about it.

Of course, everyone is in a normal business competition, so Lin Zuhui naturally wouldn't make a risky move.But he has a way to take Zheng Jinghan, the media tycoon in his previous life, out of the pot.

It's very simple. In his previous life, in addition to publishing the Chinese version of "Playboy" in 1986, Zheng Jinghan also published "Capital" magazine in 1987. This magazine is authorized by the American version of "Forbes".

Therefore, after his "GOOD" magazine is released and becomes a success, Lin Zuhui will draw his salary from the bottom of the pot and ask someone to go to the United States to obtain the authorization of "Forbes" to run a financial magazine, robbing him of the opportunity.

As for Zheng Jinghan's weekly gossip package, Lin Zuhui said that he is not interested, and he will definitely not be a gossip media.He himself is the biggest gossip, and he has a lot of actresses and girlfriends. He doesn't want to be scolded as 'only state officials are allowed to set fires, but ordinary people are not allowed to light lamps'.

……

On the other side, Zheng Jinghan sat proudly in his office. He investigated and found that the boss of "FHM" magazine was a young man in his 20s. He had no experience in the publishing industry before, so he suddenly felt contemptuous.

He believes that his Chinese version of "Playboy" will soon beat "Fm Gang" and occupy the high-end Hong Kong men's magazine.

While he was thinking, a man came to his office.

"Boss, I found some news about the boss of FHM Magazine!"

Zheng Jinghan said: "Tell me!"

This subordinate was sent out by himself to inquire about Lin Zuhui's affairs, so that he can formulate countermeasures.He thought, since he was only a 20-year-old boy and was born in poverty, would he be...

"We found out that the owner of "FHM" is Lin Zuhui, a mainlander who immigrated to Hong Kong in 1979. His father seems to be a real estate agent, and he dropped out of high school before even graduating from high school. So, this kind of person runs a high-grade men's magazine , is simply a disgrace.”

Zheng Jinghan heard the words, thought for a while and said: "A Bao, have you been with me for several years?"

"It's been two years. If the boss hadn't promoted me, I wouldn't be where I am today!"

"Okay, then you can report these things in the newspaper in your own name, and get rid of the black material about the guy from "FHM" who just immigrated from the mainland and has low education, and then make a good comment (slander)."

"no problem!"

"Remember not to comment on "Sing Tao Daily", go to "Oriental Daily" and "Daily Daily", they like these news."

"Okay, boss, don't worry."

After Abao left, Zheng Jinghan showed a cruel smile. For a new immigrant with no background, how could he give up this method of suppressing others?

Although it won't bring a devastating blow to "Fm Gang", at least it will affect it a bit. What kind of shit 'publishing genius', he also deserves it!

Chapter 46 【A grievance must be repaid】

"Oriental Daily" suddenly exposed Lin Zuhui's old background, and ridiculed Lin Zuhui for not graduating from high school, but wanting to run a high-end men's magazine, which is simply ridiculous.

Just when Lin Zuhui thought it was only the consistent style of "Oriental Daily", "Daily Daily" also published his "negative news", saying that he is a new immigrant from the Mainland, and he was kicked out of the house by his father and stepmother, etc. Such a person An incompetent person actually wants to win the heart of a high-grade man in Xiangjiang.

Liang Guanhui came to Lin Zuhui's office worriedly, and said: "There were newspapers that published your news earlier, but the words were definitely not so sharp; now the words of several newspapers have suddenly become so bad, I am afraid that some people are jealous of us!"

Lin Zuhui is also a man of two lifetimes, so how can he not know that someone is jealous of him, and he also guessed that Zheng Jinghan may be beating himself to pave the way for his Chinese version of "Playboy".

"It's okay, let them talk about it! I haven't violated the law, so how much black material can you dig up for me! Don't worry about these things, just rest assured that the content of the magazine will be better, and we will naturally be invincible."

Liang Guanhui nodded and went to work. He was also confident in defeating a new opponent.

"Cai Ning, call Minister Li for me!"

"Okay, boss!"

Seeing the confidence on the boss's face, Cai Ning swept away the worry just now; to be honest, she also has two years of work experience, but although the previous boss is older, she thinks the current boss is more attractive, what? Nothing troubles him, and he can create many miracles.

After a while, Li Guangming came to the office, called 'boss', and sat on the sofa.

"In February, I plan to allocate 2 Hong Kong dollars for another advertisement. You can arrange it and come up with a plan for me."

"Okay, I'll arrange it right away!"

50 advertisements are made, stabilize your rear, and then consider taking the initiative.

……

Great Wisdom Investment Consulting Company.

Lin Zuhui came to his office, and Fang Jin followed him in. He knew that the boss must have a reason for coming to the company.

"What is the price of Wheelock's stock?"

"4.8 Hong Kong dollars per share!"

Although the profit was only 10%, compared with Sun Hung Kai, New World and other companies whose stocks rose less, Fang Jin never doubted the vision of the boss.

"It's not bad. Wheelock just grows a little slower. There should be a big opportunity. By the way, don't you guys have nothing to do recently?"

"En. Boss, do you have business again?"

In fact, Dazhi made a commission of 100 million last month. Although it was mainly due to Lin Zuhui, he still hung it in the name of the company. After all, he used the people of the company, and the business was the first to continue.

Whether it is Lin Zuhui or Fang Jin, they didn't pay much attention to it during the start-up period; speaking of both of them have credit, Lin Zuhui has the credit for the command, Fang Jin has the credit for the officer; At the beginning, the June [-]th split is very fair.

This cooperation model is about to come to an end. After completing the acquisition of Wheelock shares, Lin Zuhui has enough funds to buy listed companies, so there is no need for Fang Jin.At that time, Fang Jin will continue to be a shell agent, but Lin Zuhui will enter the real estate industry.

Lin Zuhui said to Fang Jin: "Recently, Zheng Jinghan wants to run the Chinese version of "Playboy" magazine to compete with our "FHM". The competition is nothing, but recently there have been a lot of negative news about me. I suspect he did it."

Fang Jin suddenly got angry and said, "Boss, let's find someone to beat him with a sap!"

Lin Zuhui waved his hand and said seriously: "Business must solve problems from the perspective of a businessman, not the style of an association. So, as far as I know, this Zheng Jinghan returned to Hong Kong in 1982 and lived in Canada before. He Had a marriage with the former Hong Kong singer Xu Xiaofeng. According to people, the marriage time was about 1975 to 1980. This Zheng Jinghan also has a Canadian name, which seems to be Zheng Yongfu. That Xu Xiaofeng should also have a fake name. In short, the two Married. Go find someone to find out if Zheng Jinghan has been dating recently, and then sell the news to your journalist friends, add a heartbroken man or something, and fight back."

Fang Jin immediately said happily: "No problem, I promise it will be done well."

He likes to do this kind of thing that puts a cold gun in the back, anyway, the company is fine now.

Lin Zuhui nodded, he knew that this matter would not cause much trouble to Zheng Jinghan, just as Zheng Jinghan could not cause trouble to himself.

but!

He is the one who will take revenge, and besides, Zheng Jinghan has no influence in Xiangjiang, so he is afraid of a ball!

Fang Jin happily went to work!

Lin Zuhui thought of another thing in the office. He was advancing by leaps and bounds in the business field, so he would not need many opponents. The opponent of "FHM" is Zheng Jinghan's "Playboy". In the future, in the securities and real estate business field, I will have another unavoidable opponent, and that is Da Liu.

Lin Zuhui took a fancy to China Entertainment and Huazhi, especially Huaren Real Estate. He planned to use this as a springboard to become the top ten chaebols in Xiangjiang.And these two properties belonged to Da Liu in his previous life.

……

Lin Zuhui was in his office, holding a document about the listed company Amgo, and flipping through it.

The total share capital is nearly 2 million shares, the stock price is currently 2.02 yuan, and the market value has exceeded 4 million. It can be regarded as an industrial stock with a relatively high listing value in the Hong Kong Securities Market.

He didn't read the company's listing information for no reason, but planned to take advantage of Liu in the future.There was no enmity between the two, but Lin Zuhui didn't want Liu to rise too fast, because he blocked his way.

Of course, with Lin Zuhui's current capital, there is definitely no way to prevent Da Liu's rise, but he can make a fortune from it and let Da Liu pay a little more.

Liu's operation methods and targets, he knows himself and the enemy, so it is not difficult to get a share.For example, at the beginning of 1985, Da Liu began to slowly sell his shares in Amergo, basically all of them, and the couple also withdrew from the board of directors of Amergo.

In this way, he started to sell Amygao slowly at 2 Hong Kong dollars, the average selling price was at least 2.5 Hong Kong dollars, and he obtained about 2 million Hong Kong dollars in cash.

Because he predicted that the stock market might fall, he first sold the shares at a high price, and then waited to get them back at a low price, regaining the power of Aimigao.

The fact is also the same. In the previous life, around June 1986, Hong Kong’s small and medium-sized market capitalization stocks fell from the iceberg, and the stock price of Amergo even fell to 0.7 Hong Kong dollars (the highest was 4 Hong Kong dollars); Started to repurchase shares in batches, with a minimum of 0.9 yuan per share, and obtained 0.7% of Amygao shares without anyone knowing it, regaining the power of Amygao.

Based on this approach, Lin Zuhui has already figured out a plan to make a fortune from it.

That is, when Amergo is 0.9 Hong Kong dollars, they start to grab chips together; in this way, Amergo's stock price will definitely rise sharply.

Whether it's cashing out at the high point of the stock, or Da Liu buying it back at a high price, at least 2000 million can be earned!As for competing for Amy High, his strength is definitely not enough.

Then again, it’s not a bad relationship between the two parties. After all, you are not a major shareholder anymore, and I don’t know who is grabbing chips; in the end, I will sell you the shares to help you regain Amergo. Remember personal feelings.

The reason why Lin Zuhui did this was not only to make a lot of money, but also to make Liu lose a little more; in this way, when the two compete in the future, he will be less powerful.

There is still one year before the acquisition battle between China Entertainment and Huazhi. As a time traveler, there is naturally a way to bridge the gap between the two sides.Moreover, once Lin Zuhui owns a listed company, he can raise funds from the stock market to grow himself, and he may not lose to others.

Chapter 47 【End of war】

Liu family.

After careful consideration, Liu decided to sell all his Amergo shares for two reasons:

First, he and another founder, Liang Yingwei, have not quarreled recently. This incident can be used as a cover for cashing out at a high price;

Second: He has a premonition that the stock market will fall sharply. The reason is that since the Hang Seng Index fell to more than 700 points in July last year, it has bottomed out and rebounded. Now it is close to 1400 points. The increase is too fast, almost doubled. increase.

At present, the share price of Amergo has risen to 2.05 Hong Kong dollars, and the market is hot, which is a good opportunity to slowly cash out at high prices.So he told his wife Bao Yongqin of his thoughts. After all, they were still a loving couple at this time, and his wife was also a director of Amygo.

After hearing her husband's judgment, Bao Yongqin said without reservation: "Well, I support you, your prediction will be very accurate!"

Seeing that his wife believed in him so much, Da Liu was immediately moved. He remembered that when he wanted to start a business and produce classical fans to sell in North America, the whole family made fun of him, but his wife silently supported him.

Not only that, even a large part of the venture capital comes from the wife's dowry. The two sold a dowry house and obtained 15 Hong Kong dollars in funds.

Because of this, there are only 27-year-old billionaires, and only 30-year-old chairman of listed companies.

After the two agreed on the selling plan, they decided to start selling immediately. Da Liu and his wife hold a total of 32% of the shares of Amygo, which is 6400 million shares. They also need time to sell short to avoid a sharp drop in the stock price.What's more, selling slowly can make the average selling price of the two people higher.

……

Zheng Jinghan thought that giving Lin Zuhui, the owner of "FHM" magazine some "dirty material" would have the effect of hitting the sales of "FHM" magazine; but in fact, the sales of "FHM" went up a little again.

What's more, the "black material" he made was used by some newspapers to make news in reverse, praising the inspiration of the boss of "FHM" magazine; not only that, "FHM" obviously has higher gold content as an original magazine; Son" was originally a pornographic magazine, not to mention that Zheng Jinghan still bought the copyright, so the level is naturally low.

Therefore, in this wave of public opinion, Lin Zuhui could have won without a fight!

However, soon some small newspapers used "Playboy - Zheng Jinghan" as the news headline, telling about his marriage with the famous singer Xu Xiaofeng in Canada, and his dating with Hong Kong sister Lao Jinchang in Hong Kong. Son'.

Good guy, after Lin Zuhui read the report, he discovered the power of Xiangjiang newspaper.I just revealed a few words of information, and those media brought back a lot of information from Canada, and the things they said were in a good shape.

For a while, Xiangjiang public opinion had two protagonists.

Zheng Jinghan looked at the news from the small newspapers outside, and suddenly became angry. This matter has little effect on the Chinese version of "Playboy", but he is pursuing Lao Jinchang, Miss Hong Kong. If she knows that he is married, wouldn't it be Big trouble.

"Who's messing with me?"

"Could it be that kid? Such detailed information from him?"

"Fortunately, those reporters have no substantive evidence!"

"Do you want to sue those newspapers? No, the matter will get worse and worse. If they really go to Canada to seek evidence, it will be even more troublesome!"

Zheng Jinghan finally tasted lifting a rock to shoot himself in the foot!

This matter will definitely spread in the industry, and it will definitely be Zheng Jinghan who will lose face at that time, because everyone will know that two competitors, Zheng Jinghan and Lin Zuhui, are causing trouble; and according to the time of the news, it is obvious that Zheng Jinghan first picked started.

The important thing is that Zheng Jinghan has also lost the battle, and I am afraid that he will be cast aside in the industry.

Zheng Jinghan and Lin Zuhui's petty tricks with each other can't be hidden from the media; after all, if Lin Zuhui doesn't fight back, everyone won't doubt Zheng Jinghan; once Lin Zuhui fights back, everyone will know about it.

Both of them are newcomers in the media industry. Although Zheng Jinghan has worked in Sing Tao Newspaper for two years, he has not yet started a business, so he is also a newcomer.
