The entertainment empire began with Liu Yifei's premarital pregnancy.

Chapter 472 The Delayed Event

The program "Chinese Poetry Competition" is very suitable for this year.

Originally, this program was later sponsored by CCTV.

"Old Sun, you should talk to CCTV about the 'Chinese Poetry Competition' program. If CCTV is willing to broadcast it, we can co-host it with CCTV, but both the copyright and the right to speak must remain with the company." Lin Bufan looked at Sun Jinghai with a serious expression.

He may not care about short-term monetary profits; what he wants is a lasting reputation.

Originally, this program was produced by CCTV in later years.

Moreover, for programs like this, having CCTV's support versus not having CCTV's support makes a world of difference.

"I understand, Chairman!"

Sun Jinghai responded.

"As for the directors of these two shows, for 'China's Got Talent,' you, Hong Tao, will personally take the lead as the chief director." Lin Bufan looked at Hong Tao.

"Yes, Chairman!"

Hong Tao nodded.

"If CCTV is willing, they can send someone from CCTV to direct the 'Chinese Poetry Competition' program," Lin Bufan thought for a moment and looked at Hong Tao.

After explaining the details of the variety show, Lin Bufan looked at Chen Yu and said, "Bring the things over here."

"Yes, Chairman!"

Soon, Chen Yu came over with a stack of documents and laid them out on the table.

"These are two subscription agreements. You two can decide for yourselves how many shares you want to purchase..." Lin Bufan looked at the two of them.

Jingxiu is currently preparing for its IPO. The acquisition of the shell company is being arranged by the headquarters and will not delay Jingxiu's restructuring.

Jingxiu's total share capital is 12000 million shares. Lin Bufan had promised Sun Jinghai that he could hold 5% of Jingxiu's shares.

Now is the time to deliver on that promise.

"Take these two documents back and discuss them yourselves. Come back to me after you've made your decision." Lin Bufan gave them the opportunity; how they would choose was up to them.

For example, Lin Bufan promised Sun Jinghai that he could hold 5% of Jingxiu's shares.

Jingxiu's 5% stake is 6 million shares. Currently, Jingxiu's valuation is 600 million yuan, and the price per share is 5 yuan. This is the original share price.

Just now, Lin Bufan handed Sun Jinghai a share subscription agreement with a maximum limit of 600 million shares. As for how many shares he actually buys, that's entirely up to him.

Like Hong Tao, except he only has the right to subscribe to 100 million shares.

"Yes, Chairman!"

……

"Mr. Sun, how many shares are you planning to buy?"

After leaving the 33rd floor, Hong Tao looked at Sun Jinghai with curiosity.

"Of course, I'll buy as much as I have!"

Sun Jinghai smiled and glanced at Hong Tao.

Just kidding. Given Jingxiu's current situation, it's valued at 6 million, or 5 yuan per share. Even if you include the total share capital of the shell company, the share capital might increase.

However, the increase will definitely not be much.

That's too much. For Jingxiu, it's a dilution. Even if they go public through a backdoor listing, they can forget about getting a good price in the short term.

He calculated that the company would likely choose a shell company with 3000-5000 million shares when acquiring a shell company.

Based on this calculation, Jingxiu's total share capital will be between 1.5 million and 1.7 million in the future. Since it is a backdoor listing, the valuation is hard to say.

However, given Jingxiu's track record, its value after listing will not fall below 15 billion.

Even if we calculate based on 1.7 million shares, with a market value of 15 billion, the price per share would be above 8.8 yuan.

The initial public offering (IPO) shares were only 5 yuan each. Such a good opportunity! Even if you don't have the money, you should borrow money to buy the IPO shares.

Hong Tao, who was standing to the side, thought the same thing. He had just glanced at the list and realized that he only had the authority to sell 100 million shares. He regretted that this was all the qualifications he had.

……

"Chairman, the Hundred Flowers Awards and the Golden Horse Awards have extended invitations to us. Should we...?" After Hong Tao and Sun Jinghai left, Shen Lin knocked on the door and came in to report to Lin Bufan.

When is the Hundred Flowers Awards held this year?

In the past, he would have definitely refused outright.

However, someone had previously told him that he would be serving as the vice chairman of the Film Association at the end of this year during the leadership transition.

"The Hundred Flowers Awards will be held in September this year."

"Since that's the case..."

Lin Bufan thought for a moment and looked at Shen Lin: "Submit 'Black Coal, Thin Ice' to the Hundred Flowers Awards."

"As for the Golden Horse Awards..."

Lin Bufan thought about it. He might not care about a small award like the Golden Horse Awards, but the actors in the movie couldn't possibly not care.

"Let's register for it while we're at it!"

"Yes, Chairman!"

Shen Lin responded and then wrote the matter down.

Perhaps the old guys at the Film Association also knew why Lin Bufan would be appointed as the vice chairman of the Film Association at the end of the year.

So, right after Kyoto submitted "Black Coal, Thin Ice," the Hundred Flowers Awards announced the nominees the very next day.

"Black Coal, Thin Ice" leads the Hundred Flowers Awards with six nominations.

It was nominated for Best Feature Film, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actor, and Best Newcomer.

The moment this list was released, audiences and netizens across mainland China erupted in cheers and jubilation.

"Does anyone know why Director Lin suddenly submitted his work for a mainland awards?"

"That big shot, the one who knows the inside story, come out and speak out?"

"It's really not easy. Director Lin actually values mainland awards."

"You'll find out by the end of the year. It's not convenient to say too much now, but I can only say that Director Lin is awesome."

In this era, the Internet was not yet particularly developed, so all sorts of people chatted online, saying all sorts of things.

In fact, at this time, you can learn some inside information, and it is even easier to obtain some channels and sources of "information" than in later years when the Internet is developed.

Originally, today's excitement was supposed to revolve around public discussion about the Hundred Flowers Awards.

But soon, a piece of news from Hong Kong Island caused a sensation across the entire internet.

"Brothers, here's a treat! Click this link..."

"Hey buddy upstairs, what kind of perks do you get?"

"Some photos, and very explicit ones at that, comparable to intimate photos."

"Pshaw, what's the big deal!"

Netizens were somewhat dismissive of this.

In this day and age, it's actually quite easy to find resources for everyday life online.

"What if the people in the photo were celebrities?"

"What? A celebrity? Really?"

"Of course it's true, otherwise it wouldn't be considered a benefit!"

"Holy shit, holy shit..."
