1993 My China Entertainment Age

On January 2007, 1, Century Group changed its name to Century Entertainment Film and Television Group and was listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.

In addition to Century Entertainment, three other companies also chose this day to go public.

Although every investor may have different judgments, among the four newly listed companies, the most eye-catching one is undoubtedly Century Entertainment, which is highly discussed, highly praised and has high star power.

Judging from previous promotion meetings, institutions are very enthusiastic about Century Entertainment. The total number of investors from both sides of the Taiwan Strait participating in the meeting exceeded 400. The Hong Kong promotion meeting was also postponed due to the large number of people.

At the moment when the bell of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange rang, the opening price of Century Entertainment was displayed in front of everyone: "60.6 yuan!"

At this exciting moment, Century Entertainment chairman Jiang Xiaofeng, producer Zhang Jizhong, and his artist Zhou Jilun all stood up from their seats excitedly, their eyes full of businessmen's desire and greed.

Seeing this astonishing opening price, even Zhou Jilun, who always likes to act cool and handsome, couldn't help but sigh: "It's so cool!"

You know, the original stock that Zhou Jielun bought before cost only 3 yuan per share, but now it has increased to 60.6 yuan, which is equivalent to a 20-fold increase!
Moreover, Century Entertainment’s issue price today was only 20.58 yuan, but the opening price was 60.6 yuan.

Based on the opening price, Century Entertainment's total share capital is 16800 million shares, and the total market value of Century Entertainment Film and Television Group currently exceeds 102 billion yuan.

Based on Century Entertainment's current opening price of 60.6 yuan, chairman Jiang Xiaofeng holds 8000 million shares.The paper wealth is already 48 billion. Zhou Jielun holds 300 million shares with a market value of 1.8 million yuan. Zhang Jizhong holds 200 million shares with a market value of an astonishing 1.5 million yuan.

Subsequently, media reporters conducted on-site interviews with Jiang Xiaofeng and three other people.

Reporter: "Hello, Director Jiang, is there a big difference between today's increase and your expectation?"

Jiang Xiaofeng couldn't hide his excitement and said: "It's better than I expected, but the difference is not big. I hope this stock price can be maintained or even rise higher."

Reporter: “Do you feel pressured by the current increase?”

Jiang Xiaofeng said calmly: "Of course, this is everyone's trust and support for us. I very much hope to make the company better so that everyone can make money."

Reporter: "Will there be any mergers and acquisitions by Century Entertainment in the future?"

Jiang Xiaofeng said categorically: "I think there will be, there will definitely be."

Reporter: "We saw that Director Zhang Jizhong and Mr. Zhou Jilun both came to today's ceremony. Is there any special significance?"

Jiang Xiaofeng did not sound official, but told the truth: "The company's listing is inseparable from the efforts of everyone, and Director Zhang and Wanli are both major contributors to our company. I think they should come and are qualified to come."

Immediately afterwards, the reporter also interviewed Zhang Jizhong, who attended the listing ceremony.

Reporter: "Director Zhang, when you first joined Century Entertainment, did you ever think that one day the company would be able to go public?"

Zhang Jizhong stroked his beard, pondered for a moment, and said: "Actually, when Director Jiang came to me, he told me his thoughts. At that time, I thought it was impossible to go public. It was just a dream."

"But after working with Director Jiang for so many years, I know his strength and structure better than anyone else. He is indeed a person who sees the longer term than me. I have to accept him!"

Reporter: "We all know that you are very good at filming costume dramas, especially Jin Yong's martial arts dramas. You have filmed seven or eight of them now. After filming Jin Yong's dramas, will you consider filming Gu Long martial arts dramas?"

Zhang Jizhong smiled and replied: "I have thought about it, but whether to shoot or not, we still have to hold meetings and discussions in the mainland, and there are no plans yet."

At the same time, Zhou Jiulun also accepted interviews from Hong Kong media.

Reporter: "Hello, I think we will all call you Mr. Zhou from now on. Can you share with us your mood at the moment?" Zhou Jiulun replied seriously: "As a member of Century, frankly speaking, I think our company’s stock price today is quite high, which represents everyone’s trust in us.”

Century Entertainment's stock price started at 9 yuan at 60.6:80 a.m., experienced ups and downs, and finally ended at 25 yuan, an increase of as much as [-]%.

In addition to Jiang Xiaofeng, Zhou Jilun, and Zhang Jizhong, many investors such as Zhang Lei, Ma Huateng, and Ding Shizhong all received generous returns after Century Entertainment went public.

This day is destined to be a memorable day, because Century Entertainment is the first mainland film and television company to go public.

Also remembering this day are the insiders who hold Century shares: directors, producers and entertainers.

Overnight, their net worth doubled, and the highest value even exceeded [-] million yuan, becoming the hottest topic at the moment.

Why is Century Entertainment attracting so much attention? The most dazzling one is none other than its star shareholders.

Based on the day's closing price of 80 yuan, Jiang Xiaofeng, who holds 8000 million shares, has a book value of 64 billion yuan, Zhou Jielun, who holds 300 million shares, has a book value of 2.4 million yuan, and Zhang Jizhong and Fan Bingbing's shareholding value also exceeds 1 billion and become a veritable billionaire.

In addition, many star shareholders such as Tao Hong, Xu Huaiyu, and Tan Jing also became multi-millionaires in the stock market in one day.

In an instant, public opinion was in an uproar, and people were talking with interest about who among the luxurious star lineup had doubled in value? Who had no shares and suffered a big loss...

Of course, not all of them are freeloaders. There are also some who are aggrieved. For example, Yu Dong from Bona was particularly unhappy when he saw Century’s stock surge after it was listed in Xiangjiang. He directly took his lover Jin and secretly made a big move of 300. After the round, I felt better.

There are also the Wang brothers of the Huayi brothers. When they saw that Century was successfully listed in Xiangjiang and obtained astonishing profits, they were also very anxious because they all knew that Century Group, which had taken the lead, would obtain unprecedented capital. and resources.

If Huayi Brothers cannot go public as soon as possible and obtain financing opportunities, the gap between Huayi Brothers and Century Entertainment will only widen.

However, facing the news of Century Entertainment's listing, the most distressed person was Feng Xiaogang.

Because as early as a few years ago, Jiang Xiaofeng had invited Feng Xiaogang to join the yet-to-be-established Century Group. However, at that time, Feng Xiaogang felt that Jiang Xiaofeng was just a singer and was not doing his job in a film and television company, so he finally rejected Jiang Xiaofeng's invitation and chose Wang The brothers chose Huayi Brothers.

Seeing the news of Century's listing, especially the news that Zhang Jizhong's net worth exceeded [-] million in one day, Feng Xiaogang felt a tightness in his chest. He couldn't help but slapped the table hard and cursed loudly: "Why the hell am I not so good?" He has long eyes!"

The reason why Feng Xiaogang is so excited is because he feels that as one of the three most profitable directors in the domestic film industry, he has been making movies for more than ten years and his net worth is only over [-] million, while Zhang Dabeard is just a TV series producer. But he became rich overnight, and his net worth was more than ten times that of his.

At this moment, Feng Xiaogang felt that his world view and outlook on life had collapsed.

Although the Wang brothers also told him that the company would be listed sooner or later, Feng Xiaogang didn't know exactly when or whether it would be listed, so he was heartbroken and anxious.

Seeing her husband being so excited, Xu Fan hurriedly stepped forward to comfort him and said, "What's wrong? The sky is falling, and there's someone taller holding it up. Why should I be so excited!"

Feng Xiaogang was so angry that he pointed to the newspaper on the table and said, "Read it yourself!"

Xu Fan picked up the newspaper and read it carefully, and asked in disbelief: "Is it true? Jiang Xiaofeng's net worth is 64 billion? Oh my God? He should be the richest person in the entertainment industry now, right?"

Feng Xiaogang said dumbfounded: "Not only is he the richest in the entertainment industry, he is about to become one of the richest people in China. His net worth is already at the top of the Forbes rich list!"
