Chapter 630: 631【The Richest Man in the Mainland】

   Chapter 630 631 [The Richest Man in the Mainland]

   In terms of picking up girls, it is actually much more convenient to pick up girls after you have money.

  Just like Liang Zhengxian, the king of the sea in "Thirty Only", a small town girl like Wang Manni with a heart higher than the sky and a life thinner than paper can easily win in a few rounds.

   And judging from the plot, it is obviously not the first time he has played like this. He has reserved tickets on cruise ships, airports, and star-rated hotels all year round, which are specially used for fishing.

  Xiang Nan's net worth is much higher than Liang Zhengxian's, and his identity, status, and influence are much higher than him. Now that he is in the entertainment industry, he dare not say that he can cover the sky with only one hand, but he is also a high-ranking and powerful person who speaks his word.

  With his wealth, status, and influence, he doesn't need to take the initiative, there are many people willing to pounce on him.

  But for him, things like unspoken rules simply don't work.

  For a film and television drama, the investment ranges from a few million to tens of millions. If you think about being submerged, you can be the protagonist. To be honest, there is nothing so cheap in the world.

  Once it fails, investing millions or tens of millions is not a joke. The real big boss, no one would take such a big risk.

   Unless you are a local tyrant who has never seen the world, you will be filled with a few bowls of ecstasy soup without a name, and you will spend real money in order to hold the role.

  Xiang Nan's kind basically grows among tens of thousands of flowers, without any leaves touching his body.

  …

   On August 5, 2005, Baidu officially landed on NASDAQ.

  The stock issue price is 27 US dollars, a total of 32.3 million shares are issued, and the estimated funds raised are 109 million US dollars. According to this valuation, Baidu’s market value at that time was nearly 4 billion US dollars.

  Xiang Nan holds 20% of the shares, and this part of the stock is worth 800 million US dollars. This caused Xiang Nan's net worth to rise sharply, from the previous 6 billion yuan to 11 billion yuan.

   This value has surpassed Ding Lei, the richest man in the country last year, and became the richest person in the mainland. Considering his age was only twenty-five, it was really scary.

   Unexpectedly, on the first day of Baidu's listing, the stock price soared. The issue price was $27, and the opening price rose to $66. Three hours after the market opened, the stock price broke through $100.

  By the close of trading in the afternoon, the stock price had risen to $122, more than tripled. Xiang Nan's net worth also soared to around 20 billion yuan, double that of Ding Lei, the richest man in the country last year.

   Such data are simply eye-catching.

  …

  In the same year, "Family with Children", "Underground Traffic Station", "Legend of Sword and Fairy", and "Song Mentoring Judge" were launched one after another, and the ratings were all very good.

   In terms of word-of-mouth, "Legend of Sword and Fairy" was criticized by the game crowd because of some magic changes in the plot. But having said that, whether a TV series is successful or not depends on the ratings.

   This TV series was aired on multiple TV stations, and all of them achieved amazing ratings. Several protagonists in the play, Hu Fu, Liu Yifei, Shu Chang, Chen Xun, Feng Shaofeng, etc., all gained fame and benefited a lot because of this.

   "Family with Children" made Yang Wei, Zhang Yishan and Hou Minghao popular. Hou Minghao has learned the accordion since he was a child, and has won many awards in strength competitions.

  After the casting of "Family with Children" started, he also participated in the audition, competing with You Haoran for the role of Xiao Yu. In the end, after Xiang Nan's decision, Hou Minghao was finalized.

  Because Hou Minghao has a better appearance and will have greater development in the future. And You Haoran was cute when he was a child, but when he grows up, he is too cruel to look directly at him. Naturally, he doesn't have as much potential as Hou Minghao.

   "The Great Song Mentions the Criminal Officer" also gave He Bing, who has been unknown until now, finally tasted the taste of popularity. In fact, Xiang Nan didn't intend to use him at first, after all, he is not a youthful person. It's a pity to give him this opportunity.

   At the beginning, Guo Tao was used, but Guo Tao's performance in the audition was not satisfactory. The grasp of the characters is not precise enough, and it is a bit frivolous, so it was dismissed.

   Later, I tried Sha Yi again. I didn't expect it to be impossible, and there was an inexplicable sense of joy. Watching him investigate the case does not make people nervous at all, but it feels a bit funny.

   Later Xiang Nan thought about it, and decided to break the sect and let He Bing play the leading role.

  Firstly, he wanted to establish a signboard that the youth film industry must produce high-quality goods, just like Noon Sunshine, Lemon Films, and Shanying Group, all productions must be high-quality goods.

  Xiang Nan knows that with the economic development of the mainland, the film and television entertainment market will become more and more prosperous, with more and more capital, and more and more fierce competition.

  Under such circumstances, only by continuously producing good dramas and works can we gain a firm foothold in the market. Otherwise, they will be eliminated in minutes.

  Secondly, he wanted all the artists in the company to know that it was not because they were signed to the company that they would be able to lean against a big tree to enjoy the shade. You still have to hone your acting skills and boost your recuperation in order to be able to be reused.

  …

  He Bing has excellent acting skills, but after graduating from Chinese opera in 1991, he has never been reused. Most of the roles played are supporting roles, and they don't even have the names of the characters.

   This time he received "Da Song Mentioned Criminal Officer", and when he learned that he was the protagonist, he was so excited that he almost cried.

  In order to play this role well, he not only familiarized himself with the script, but also read the records of Song Ci in the history books, Song Ci's monograph "Washing Injustice", etc., trying to memorize it by heart.

   Therefore, as soon as the filming started, his performance convinced everyone in front of and behind the stage.

   Because of this, he became famous in one fell swoop, and finally he was no longer unknown.

  After He Binghuo became angry, he still stayed in Renyi, and did not come to youth.

  However, with this relationship, there was an invitation to Youth in the Future, and He Bing never declined as long as he had a schedule. It is also very interesting.

  …

   "Underground Traffic Station" has Sha Yi as the protagonist. With his acting skills and sense of joy, it is absolutely no problem to play Shui Gener. The shopkeeper Sun was also changed from Bao Dazhi to Yan Nier, the cook Yang Baolu was still played by Jiang Zhen, and even the little stone was played by Wang Shasha. The whole anti-Japanese war version of "Wulin Biography" came out.

  By taking advantage of the popularity of "Wulin Biography" and the fact that the script is really funny, "Underground Traffic Station" became very popular after it was broadcast.

  Among them, the most outstanding one is not the old fellows of Tongfu Inn, but Jia Guier who plays the traitorous dog. With his funny appearance and humorous lines, he is simply a living treasure.

  …

  At the end of the year, "Sword Rain" starring Qiao Zhenyu, Sun Li, Sha Yi, Zeng Lai, and Wang Qingxiang was released. Also being screened at the same time are Chen Kaige's "The Promise", which he has honed his sword for three years, and Liu Zhenwei's "The Great Sage of Love".

   "The Promise" advertised an investment of 350 million RMB, claiming to be the largest investment in the mainland, twice as much as that of "Heroes" back then.

  It also gathered a large number of stars at home and abroad, such as Sanada Hiroyuki, Zhang Dongjian, Zhang Bozhi, Nicholas Tse, Liu Ye, Chen Hong, etc., which can be called the strongest lineup.

   "Lord of the Rings" claims to invest 50 million Hong Kong dollars, and claims to have special effects comparable to "Lord of the Rings". The starring roles are Nicholas Tse, Choi Cheuk-yan, Leung Lok-shih, Cheung Chi-hang, Kwan Chi-bin, Chen Bolin and other stars of Hong Kong's new generation.

   Even the ten-year-end episode of "A Chinese Journey to the West" is a gimmick. To be honest, it is still very eye-catching.

  "Sword Rain" is naturally extremely difficult to confront these two powerful enemies.
