I'm a manager at Heliansheng, I only look for legitimate businesses

Because the yen is appreciating, with such strong purchasing power, why wouldn't the Japanese government print money?

The manufacturing industry is not profitable and there is no money in the bank, so what should we do with the money we have? We can only invest in the stock market, housing market and foreign exchange market.

Let’s put it this way, starting from 87, Japanese people have used 100 billion yen to buy a house.

It is estimated that in the time it takes to take a nap at noon, the value of this house will increase to 130 billion.

Afterwards, this house worth 130 billion yen was able to borrow 300 billion yen from the bank.

What should you do with the loaned money? Bank staff will suggest that you use the 300 billion yen to buy a house, stocks, or trade foreign exchange.

This suggestion is indeed correct. At that time, whatever you bought would increase in value.

If you want to pay back the money, the bank executives will kneel down in front of you. As long as you don't pay back the money, they can do anything.

The yen has been pushed up to 120 yen to 1 dollar.

This completely exceeded the expectations of Japanese top leaders. The increase was not 20%, but 60%.

The Japanese have already used money as paper.

On the streets of Japan, you can often see people waving 1 NT dollar bills to hail taxis. That's the equivalent of 800 RMB, and it's possible that a taxi driver can collect this 1 NT dollar bill within just a few blocks.

At that time, the monthly salary of Chinese workers was less than 200 yuan. To use the words of later generations to evaluate the Japanese at that time, they were a group of rich people.

In such a turbulent Japan, Zhang Wen had already come to share the money.

They also worked together with Takeo Funakoshi. They bought and sold houses in the Tokyo area of ​​Japan, and then exchanged the yen they earned for large sums of US dollars that had been sold on the market.

The business of pinball machines and arcade machines has not stopped, and they are also making a lot of yen.

By the end of December, when Zhang Wen arrived in Japan, the two had accumulated nearly one trillion yen, which could be converted into nearly 12 billion U.S. dollars.

At Zhang Wen's suggestion, Takeo Funakoshi purchased a lot of properties in the United States.

Zhang Wen commissioned Blackstone Group to buy Columbia Pictures for US$31 billion.

This is not just one film company, but also Columbia Records, Columbia Television, Columbia TriStar, and 180 cinemas in 820 locations across the United States.

At that time, Columbia's stock price was less than $10, and the cost of $31 billion was already a premium acquisition, and at a high price of $15.

Coca-Cola, which holds a 49% stake, made a fortune.

After the acquisition, Columbia merged directly with DreamWorks, and 820 cinemas were split and merged into AMC Cinemas.

Stanley, another shareholder of AMC Theaters, had his shares further reduced to 10%, but he remains the company's CEO.

DreamWorks has become the largest film studio in Hollywood, ranking first among the seven major companies.

This wave of operations was completed before Christmas. The speed shocked countless people, and the entire Hollywood Film Company felt the pressure increased dramatically.

DreamWorks had already risen and was about to become the eighth largest film company. After the merger, it showed a bit of its dominance.

The success of the Hulk has made many of Marvel's big IPs possible.

Now with the addition of Colombia's strong production team, this possibility is about to become a reality.

Coupled with the support of AMC, the North American cinema giant, any blockbuster produced by DreamWorks will be screened on tens of thousands of screens, which is an advantage that other films cannot match.

This is indeed the case. Toy Story, produced by Vincus Animation and released during the Christmas season, received such treatment.

It earned 1500 million US dollars at the box office when it was released, and its reputation was explosive. It was another epoch-making work.

The whole Helihuo was wailing and shouting, "The wolf is coming."

This year, the popularity of Jackie Chan and Jet Li has been further enhanced.

"Project Condor Heroes" also earned nearly 1.5 million US dollars at the box office, which was a huge profit compared to the production cost of 1 million Hong Kong dollars.

The two "Once Upon a Time in China" films also grossed 1 million U.S. dollars, but the 5.5 was the combined result.

You know, the combined production cost of these two films is only 5000 million Hong Kong dollars. In terms of cost-effectiveness, Jet Li's is even better.

Moreover, in terms of disc revenue, Jet Li crushes Jackie Chan, with sales twice as much as his. He has always been the sales champion of Blockbuster and will continue to do so for a long time.

Jet Li was quite satisfied with the result, and he also got a share of the profits this time.

Both Jackie Chan and Jet Li made a lot of money this year.

Both of them have bought villas in Beverly Hills and became neighbors with Zhang Wen.

Another person who came here to buy a villa was Zhang Guorong.

Because he earns the most, his English albums are still selling well.

Zhang Wen has already started planning to have him enter the North American market.

However, he still needs to release an English album to consolidate his position, and then release a Chinese and English album to officially expose his Chinese identity.

Chapter 357 Preparations for the Filming of Harry Potter

When the Spring Festival of 88 arrived, a huge medieval castle was about to be completed on a seaside cliff on Lanai Island. This was the filming location of "Harry Potter".

"Home Alone" has been completed and Chris Columbus is currently busy with post-production.

When he finishes the production, the castle should also be completed, and he will still be the director of "Harry Potter" at that time.

However, the male lead will no longer be Belle, because he already has an IP movie called "Home Alone". If he participates in "Harry Potter" again, the audience will be confused.

So the male lead of this "Harry Potter" movie fell to Leo DiCaprio, yes, the Leo DiCaprio, who is just 14 years old this year.

The heroine Hermione is of course the 12-year-old girl Julie.

13-year-old Tobey Maguire plays Ron.

Another outstanding young master is the 11-year-old Edward Furlong, who is even more handsome than Leo, and the little boy in Terminator 2.

Several child stars were also signed to WEN agency. They were destined to be big stars in the future, but Zhang Wen would not allow them to be promoted to serve as wedding dresses for others.

However, before the filming began, some preparations had already been made, including physical training.

If you don’t exercise well, it will be very difficult to hang on wires.

This is Julie's strong point, and she immediately transformed herself into a little teacher.

The somewhat prickly Leo wanted to challenge her authority, but after being lectured by Julie, he knelt down and called Julie a lion and tiger.

The popularity of Jackie Chan and Jet Li, coupled with the spread of the legendary kung fu superstar Bruce Lee.

Chinese Kung Fu has been well known and accepted by the world's public, especially young people in Europe and the United States, who adore it.

But now it is seen in this little girl Julie, which not only makes Leo, but also the other two leading actors want to learn it.

"Haha, if you really want to learn, you have to be willing to endure hardships.

How about this, Julie has morning classes every morning, if you can keep up, I will accept you, if you can't keep up, forget it, it's good to exercise your physical fitness. "Zhang Wen said to the little guys with a smile.

The little girl had no say in who should be accepted as disciples, so she simply took them to find Zhang Wen, who was also on vacation on the island.

"BOSS, how powerful is Chinese Kung Fu? Can you let us see it?" Although he was taught a lesson by the little girl, Little Leo was still skeptical about the power of Kung Fu.

These are all future superstars, and Zhang Wen certainly doesn't mind exposing some of his real talents. In that way, China's traditional culture can be spread faster.

So, Zhang Wen, who was sitting on the recliner, picked up a pebble directly from under the chair.

"Try and see if you can break it." Zhang Wen handed the palm-sized pebble to Little Li.

"Impossible." Little Leo took it, exerted a little force and immediately shook his head.

"Crack~~~" But the pebble broke into two pieces immediately when it got into Zhang Wen's hand.

“OMG~~~~” The three of them stared with their eyes wide open and their mouths wide open.

"hehe."

“Ga~~Ga~~Ga~~Ga~~Ga~~~”

Then Zhang Wen smiled slightly, and the pebble that was originally broken into two pieces quickly turned into small stones in his hands.

"Pah pah pah~~~~" Finally, Zhang Wen clapped his hands, revealing his smooth palms without any injuries.

“Oh my god~~~”

"I'm going crazy~~~"

“It’s amazing~~~~”

"I'm sure this isn't magic~~~~"

"Oh, Master, you are so awesome." Even Julie, who saw Zhang Wen's methods for the first time, excitedly gave him a kiss.

"Hahaha, alright, alright, this can't be done in a day or two, let's train our physical fitness first.

By the way, you can’t fall behind in academic subjects. You must go to class every day. Do you understand?” Zhang Wen said with a big laugh.

"Yes Sir!" Having seen Zhang Wen's methods, the three of them admired him immensely. They stood at attention and saluted like scouts, then lined up and started running.

After being patted on the butt by Zhang Wen, Julie chased after him. She was a young teacher.

"Wen, this is really not a magic trick?" After a few people left, Michael walked over from behind Zhang Wen, picked up a stone on the ground, looked at it, and asked in surprise.

"Of course not. This is the internal martial arts of our Chinese Kung Fu. Most people can't learn it. If you want to learn it, I can teach you. Even if you can't learn it, it will be good for your body." Zhang Wen nodded and said.

"Okay, do you want to be my disciple?" Michael nodded in surprise, and then asked.

"Hahaha, no need, no need. This is just a luck-based technique. Xiao Si also knows it." Zhang Wen said with a smile.

"That's great. How can I learn it? I can do it now." Michael asked quickly.

"Okay, sit cross-legged first and imitate me."

Right on the beach, Zhang Wen began to teach Michael the health-preserving Qigong.

Lanai Island is very lively this year.

Those invited to the island included not only Hong Kong stars under the company, but also artists from WEN agency, and executives of all its subsidiaries also enjoyed paid vacations.

First of all, the place is big and there are many things to play.

Secondly, it also demonstrates strength, after all, several companies have just been acquired.

The third is to strengthen the relationship and bring people closer together.

The families of Jackie Chan, Jet Li, and King Hung, who had never participated before, all came this time.

The total number of visitors exceeded nearly four hundred.

Fortunately, Dragonair has several large passenger planes, so the transportation can be completed in one trip.

However, with so few people, it still seems extremely empty. After all, it is several times larger than Hong Kong Island.

The hospitable Hawaiian natives, 18 beautiful 553-meter-high beaches and numerous special attractions all made the invited guests enjoy themselves immensely and they all suggested that Zhang Wen open regular flights here.

However, Zhang Wen smiled and shook his head to refuse.

There are too many secrets on the island, and it will never be open to the public. Visitors can only be invited. Even if it is opened in the future, it will only be some areas, and some restricted areas are still off-limits to outsiders.

However, there are no restrictions on the indigenous people and the staff, and they can move freely without affecting their basic lives, but they can only come here by boat from the Island of Hawaii.

"Hu La~~~Give me money~~~"

Zhang Guorong, who is not very good but loves to play, waved at his desk mates Mei Ru, Wang Fei and Liu Jialing with a smile on his face.

Next to them, there were several other tables playing, but the most surprising thing was that there was a table of foreigners.

They were several directors, including Spielberg, George Lucas, Cameron, and one of them was the CEO of AMC Theaters, Mr. Stanley.

Looking at the techniques, they seem very unfamiliar, probably they have just learned them not long ago.

What a pity that Zhang Wen was excluded.

Because he was too strong, even though he had intentionally let the game go, his brain, which was comparable to a computer, couldn't help but count the cards. He could basically guess what cards each player had and what they would win.

This is his instinct, so he was banned directly. No one will play with him. Even if he wants to play, it’s useless. No one wants to be abused.

Chapter 358: The Secret of Lanai Island

Late at night on Lanai Island, the starry sky above was still bright. Zhang Wen boarded the yacht parked at the dock under the starlight.

Then the yacht took him around the coastline of Lanai Island, and then took a detour into a hidden cave.

There are various heavy weapons guarding the front of the cave, including rocket launchers and machine guns.

After passing through a long underground waterway, the yacht stopped at a huge dock.

There are also two V-class attack submarines moored at the dock. Their dark hulls are like two sea monsters that make people afraid to approach.
