Island Tycoon

Chapter 426 Assignment of Mortgage
"Film companies and theaters?" The topic of Zhang Mingtian made the young people a little dignified.

In fact, he does not aim at a film company, because it is very easy to register a company on Hong Kong Island.It is nothing more than paying a registration fee of a few hundred yuan, and then filling out a simple form of information.

What's more, he likes to use his own name. No matter what the name of the film company is, it will be different from his idea.

It would be superfluous to wait until the film company is acquired and then change the name again.The biggest significance of acquiring a company is its original brand effect.

Once he changed the name, the brand effect would be greatly reduced, so why would he waste money to acquire other people's companies, why not set up a new company by himself.

As for the cinema, it is definitely a major prerequisite for him to set foot in the film industry.The reason why he didn't act now.Firstly, it was because his preparations were not sufficient, and secondly, there was no corresponding platform for him to flex his muscles.

He planned to set foot in the blessed land of the film industry, and he didn't think about using the method of wasting time to climb up step by step. What he wanted was to establish his reputation in the shortest time, at least with independent theaters like Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest. A tier of film companies on the line.

It's just that there are only a few theaters in Hong Kong Island. Unless he really builds a theater by himself, he can only join when a certain film company exits.

Now it seems that this film company supporting the theater chain is definitely not simple, so he can't help but make various guesses about the loan recipient.In order to understand the doubts in Kaixin, the young man asked: "I don't know which film company and theater it is?"

Zhang Mingtian did not reveal the answer directly, but asked, "Nephew, do you know Ye Jingcheng?"

"It's him!" The young man suddenly realized.Since he intends to get involved in the film industry, he will naturally do a detailed investigation beforehand, and he will naturally know Ye Jingcheng who has Qingdeng Entertainment and Nanguo Cinemas in his hands.

What's more, as far as Ye Jingcheng's reputation is concerned, he doesn't need too much research at all, even if he reads the newspaper occasionally, he can recognize this influential figure of the younger generation.

It's just that the young man didn't expect that Ye Jingcheng was the one who took out loans from the theater chain and the company. After all, this person's abilities had been deified by the media before.Now it seems that 'Prodigy Ye' is not so magical.

It's understandable for him to borrow money to invest, but if you say you're mortgaging your business, isn't that putting the cart before the horse?

An industry in its own hands, and an industry with unknown risks.If it were him, even if the income of the unknown industry might be higher than that of the existing industry, out of prudence, he would not take the behavior of sacrificing the former to achieve the latter.

"Uncle Zhang, in terms of funds..." The young man still focuses on theaters, but as long as the company's price is not high, he also wants to win it as well.Because Qingdeng Entertainment has developed to this stage, all kinds of resources and channels can save him a lot of trouble.

Zhang Mingtian pondered for a moment, and reported a figure: "The theater chain plus the company is [-] million, what do you think, nephew?"

"Uncle Zhang, how could I have such a large sum of money." The young man didn't think about it at all, and immediately shook his head and refused after hearing this. The price was beyond his tolerance.

"This..." Zhang Mingtian hesitated.

Originally, he planned to persuade the other party to talk to his father or uncle and ask them to provide financial support.Now it seems that young people don't have this idea at all, and they probably want to make the film industry their own career.

"Uncle Zhang, actually what I need is a theater chain, I don't need a film company." The young man had some calculations in his heart, knowing that with Qingdeng Entertainment's current reputation, it was impossible to just buy it for 2000 or [-] million.

Since this is the case, it is better to just give it up.At least the remaining quotes from theaters were within his tolerance.

"Why? If he acquires this company, he can save a lot of time for development, and you need to open up many channels by yourself." Zhang Mingtian couldn't help asking.

For young people, it doesn't matter whether they want Qingdeng entertainment or not.But for Zhang Mingtian, he still hopes that the other party will accept the debt of Qingdeng Entertainment.Because the debt related to Qingdeng Entertainment was mortgaged to him by Ye Jingcheng in his own name. At the beginning, he was looking at the channels and resources of this company, but he didn't expect that it was completely in his own hands now.

In other words, if the young man is willing to take over, then the funds are controlled by himself.The debt of Nanguo Cinemas belongs to the bank's business, and he can't make up his mind alone, and needs the help of two other shareholders to control it.

"Uncle Zhang, I really can't spend so much money, so I can only choose a relatively important party." The young man gave an ambiguous answer.

"Sigh." Zhang Mingtian sighed, he knew that if he continued to force himself, he would become a strongman against a younger generation.Apart from other things, the young man's father Pan Jinxi and uncle Sun Bingshu are hard to explain.

For the current plan, they can only transfer the debts of the theater chain to the other party first, and use this fund to maintain the business status of the bank.

"I think nephew, you should have investigated this theater chain. There are 5000 new theaters under its name. Among them, the original Taiping Theater, the original Xinguang Theater, and a newly opened Nanguo Cinema in Mong Kok are all under the name of this theater chain. The leading theater. If you plan to take over the debt, I can mortgage you [-] million on behalf of the bank."

The young man reached out to stop the other party's words, and said calmly, "Uncle Zhang, I still have a question."

"What question?" After all, the amount of money involved in this debt is too large, and it is reasonable for young people to have other questions. Naturally, Zhang Mingtian didn't think about it in other directions.

"I want to ask Uncle Zhang, when will this debt be due?" The young man pointed out the key to this debt.

"There is still a year and two months to go." Zhang Mingtian was inevitably disappointed. His original intention was to muddle through.But the young man asked such a direct question, there was no way for him to avoid it.

"I'm afraid..." The young man looked embarrassed and said, "Nephew, I have to think about it for a while before I can give Uncle Zhang an answer."

What an international joke, what he needs is a theater chain, and what Zhang Mingtian can give him is only a debt related to the theater chain, not sending the theater chain to him.

What's more, there is still more than a year's deadline, as long as Ye Jingcheng has the ability to repay, he can take the theater back at any time.Isn't that the money he took out, just turned around the white dove circle a little bit, and then got nothing back into his hands?
And the biggest beneficiary of this matter is Zhang Mingtian who continues to mobilize funds.The young man couldn't help calling the other party an old fox secretly. He couldn't possibly spare no effort to help the other party just because he called the other party Uncle Zhang.

Do you really think of him as an open charity?Whoever is willing to do such a thankless task will do it.

"Uncle Zhang, I have other things to attend to. I'll ask you out for dinner next time." The young man checked the time and took advantage of his busy schedule to escape.

"Huh! This Pan Disheng, I didn't expect that he was another person who wanted to take advantage of the fire." Zhang Mingtian guessed the reason why the other party walked so fast, it was definitely not because there was something urgent waiting to be dealt with, nor was it because he didn't want to help him and avoided this matter. thing.

It's just because Zhang Mingtian has something to ask for now, and Pan Disheng wants to maximize his own interests. When the former is really desperate, his nephew will help.

Maybe the original 5000 million debt can be paid for at less than half of the price, so no matter whether Ye Jingcheng is able to repay the debt at that time, he will be the biggest beneficiary of this matter.
