After Chen Yixin left, Xia Tian was about to work, when the phone rang again.
Xia Tian took it and heard it, but Liang Botao called him.
"How about it, Botao, how much money did I earn for me yesterday?" Xia Tian asked expectantly.
On the first day, he made 120 million Hong Kong dollars.
This time he doesn't have too many, it's okay to have 50 or 60 million.
"Boss, oil prices rebounded yesterday, and we lost more than 30 million Hong Kong dollars." Liang Botao said.
"Ah?!No, it's so miserable?" Xia Tian was stunned and said in surprise.
"Yes. Yesterday, oil prices rose and fell from 29:1 US dollars at the opening, and the closing price was 29:4 US dollars. We lost about 40 million Hong Kong dollars." Liang Botaohui reported.
Xia Tian blinked, "Didn't you say international oil prices will fall below ten dollars? Why did it rise by 0.2 dollars?" he asked in confusion.
"Boss, when we buy, some people buy the price. Not only we participate in this oil war, but many international speculators are pursuing profits. Their funds are quite strong and can interfere with the fluctuations of international oil prices." Liang Botao explained, "So although oil prices generally fall, there will also be dense fluctuations in the middle. Many international speculators rely on this fluctuation to buy short selling and short making money."
"I understand." Xia Tian nodded, "Since the overall trend of oil prices is falling, then we can invest in the long term. Don't care about the winners and loses in a day, but look at the long-term gains and losses."
"Yes, boss, that's what I mean. We have too little capital and not well-informed information, so short-term trading is a disadvantage. But it's different if we trade in long-term trading. As long as we follow the quasi-trend and quasi-trend, even if there are occasional waves, we will still go downstream until the Pacific Ocean." Liang Botao also smiled.
"OK, then do that." Xia Tian nodded.
"No wonder it is a great opportunity to make money, but not so many people dare to get involved." After hanging up the phone, Xia Tian figured out another truth.
Originally, he thought that when international oil prices fell, there would definitely be a large group of people following the trend of investment. After all, where can I find such an opportunity to make money?!
Now he finally understood. It turns out that the oil price has risen and fallen so irregularly. If he hadn't known that international oil prices would have fallen steadily, after losing nearly 40 million Hong Kong dollars yesterday, would he dare to continue investing?! Absolutely not!
Any rise and fall like this will scare many timid investors away. Eat a group of investors who are wrong in size, and the rest of the remaining ones can make money will probably not be much higher than that of Macau's gamblers.
"It seems that this is probably the case for speculating in the Japanese yen in the future. But this is also good, it is suitable for a person like me who has a big vision." Xia Tian smiled slightly. If we look at the economic trend in the future, no matter how awesome the economist is, he may not be as clear and accurate as he is.
...
"Boss, this is the plan I have conceived in the past few days. Please check it out." Liu Weihong, manager of the distribution department, presented the plan he conceived to Xia Tiandao.
A few days ago, Xia Tian asked him to come up with a plan to release Tianxia Pictures' movies to Europe and the United States. At that time, he refused to say that it was difficult, but Xia Tian became very angry and said that he would change people without changing his mind.
Under such pressure, Liu Weihong could only use his brain and try his best to find a way. After all, he didn't want to lose this high-paying job of 50,000 yuan a month.
Xia Tian waved his hand and did not look at the dry plans. No matter how well it was written on it, it would be dead. Instead, he asked Liu Weihong directly, "What are the plans, let me tell you?"
"I think we will use major European and American film festivals to promote our films, such as the 42nd Venice International Film Festival in Venice from August to September this year." Liu Weihong was stunned and then said quickly.
Xia Tian nodded. He had also thought of this idea, and many Hong Kong filmmakers have also used it. For example, Jiahe, Siyuan, Xinyi City, Shaw Brothers, etc., they have sent people to participate in major film festivals. Although this method is a little stupid, it is indeed one of the available methods.
"What else?" Xia Tian asked again.
"We can also cooperate with European and American film companies like Jiahe and Shaw Brothers to invest in filming movies together," Liu Weihong said again.
Shaw Brothers collaborated with the British company Hamburg to shoot "The Seven Golden Corpse" and also collaborated with Warner Bros. to shoot "Blade Runner".
Jiahe and Warner Bros. also collaborated on filming "The Dragon and the Tiger Fight" starring Bruce Lee, and also collaborated on filming "The Cannonball Speed" with 20th Century Fox.
Although working with these Hollywood film companies has made profits and lost money in the process, it has indeed expanded the popularity of Hong Kong films in European and American countries to a certain extent.
For example, Bruce Lee and Cheng Long are the most familiar kung fu superstars among European and American audiences. Even the "Oxford Dictionary" includes "kongfu".
Xia Tian nodded, knowing that this was indeed an idea.
"Okay, don't hurry to cooperate and invest in filming. Since the Venice Film Festival is about to be held from August to September, there is not much time left before now. Sign up as soon as possible." Xia Tian thought for a while, "Also, in addition to the three major film festivals, there should be many other film festivals. You lead the people to run more. If you do well, I will give you a maximum of 20% of the bonus."
"Really?!" Liu Weihong's eyes lit up.
Although European and American filmmakers buy Hong Kong movies, although the bid is not high, usually only a few hundred thousand US dollars. But if combined, the dividend of 20% is at least three to four million Hong Kong dollars, which is really a fortune.
"Of course." Xia Tian nodded, "But if you can't sell a movie, don't blame me for being ruthless. You may be demoted, deducted salary or even fired directly. I'll say that I'll be here first, and don't blame me for not notifying you in advance."
"Yes, boss." Liu Weihong couldn't help but feel nervous when he heard this, knowing that Xia Tian was going to act seriously. He didn't dare to mess around anymore, so he took action immediately.
...
A few more things happened in the next few days.
The first thing is that the beauty pageant of Miss Hong Kong has finally ended. It is similar to the situation in his previous life. Xie Li from Guangzhou, Mainland won the Miss Hong Kong championship. She is also the first Miss Hong Kong champion with a mainland background, and her height has also set a record for the lowest since the beauty pageant of Miss Hong Kong.
In addition, there is also an embarrassing gossip news that this is not the first time Xie Li has participated in the Miss Hong Kong beauty pageant. She also signed up last year, but she failed to even enter the top 30.
The second thing is that Xia Tian enrolled Zhou Haimei in an actor training class at the Hong Kong Academy of Performing Arts, allowing her to receive basic performance training. Although she also received short-term stage training when participating in the Miss Hong Kong competition, it was still far from enough for filming. She still had a lot of basic things to learn.
The third thing is that Shaw Brothers has handed over the drama "Zombie Family" to a Korean film company and is now re-dubbing. It is expected to be officially released in half a month.
The fourth thing is that after the re-dubbing of Kadokawakawa, "The Zombie Family" was finally officially released in Japan. The first stop in Tokyo, there will be twenty theaters in the first batch. If the box office response is good, the film will be released in other cities one after another.
The fifth thing is that Taiwan China Film Company bought the distribution rights of "Zombie Family" for 26 million Hong Kong dollars, which was more than 3 million Hong Kong dollars more than the previous "Mr. Zombie", which gave Xia Tian another income.
The sixth thing is that Xia Tian’s big money to send its artists’ luxury RVs was reported by reporters. For a time, there were envious people, jealous people, and there were sour people. Xia Tian was once again called the “big boss”, which complemented Shao Yifu’s “the most stingy boss”.
Tianxia Pictures has once again become a company that many entertainment industry workers want to join, and a wave of application climaxes were set off.
...
"Brother Tian, this is the detailed information of Evergrande Financial Holdings staff, this is the customer information, but only part of it, we did not get all. As for the transaction details, only the senior management can grasp it, and we have hired a detective, but we did not get it." Chen Yixin handed over the investigation report of Evergrande Financial Holdings to Xia Tiandao.
"Okay, it's almost done with these." Xia Tian nodded. Although he didn't get all the information he needed, it was good to have these information.
"Brother Tian, what are you going to do if you send someone to investigate it?" Chen Yixin asked curiously again. He really couldn't figure out what Xia Tian's purpose was.
"Don't ask so much. I will explain it to you after the matter is done. Now, keep it confidential." Xia Tian smiled slightly.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Chen Yixin had to nod.
...
After Xia Tian got the information, he studied it for two days and then made an appointment with Xiang Huasheng.
"What's the matter with me? Ah Tian, give me money?" Xiang Huasheng said with a smile.
"I have some money to give to you, but it's dirty. I don't know if you want to earn it." Xia Tian smiled slightly.
Xiang Huasheng was stunned and looked at Xia Tian. Seeing his mysterious smile on his face, he couldn't help but hesitate for a moment.
"Okay, let's talk about it first, I'll listen. If the risk is too high, I won't do it." He then said.
"It's not a big risk. I can guarantee that something will happen to you." Xia Tian smiled.
"Then you can tell me about it in detail." Xiang Huasheng couldn't help feeling a little itchy when he saw Xia Tian so mysterious.
"Okay. This is the detailed information of Evergrande Financial Holdings' 50,000 customers." Xia Tian then took out a stack of documents.
"What's the use of this? Do I write a letter to blackmail me according to the list, or do I dig up all these customers? I don't open a securities company." Xiang Huasheng asked in confusion, really didn't know what the purpose of this information was for me.
Xia Tian smiled slightly, "These information includes the customer's name, ID card, phone number, and the stock code they purchased."
