Chapter 150 Cooperation and Closing Ceremony (6/7)
On December 9, 2010, Bona announced his entry into the U.S. Nasdaq stock market.
Since then, Bona has become the first Chinese cultural concept stock to enter the US capital market.
Bona's competitor Huayi Brothers was listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange GEM market as early as October 30, 2009.
Light Media also followed closely and was listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange GEM on August 3, 2011.
Bona went to the high-end US securities market to struggle, and Huayi Brothers and Light Film were doing well in the domestic capital market.
Six years have turned upside down.
On October 30, 2009, on the first day of Huayi Brothers' listing, the closing price was 70.81 yuan, with a total share capital of 168 million shares, and the market value closed on the day of listing was 11.896 billion yuan; on June 12, 2015, Huayi Brothers' stock price reached 63.58 yuan due to the bull market, with a share capital of 1209.6 million yuan, with a market value of 76.906 billion yuan.
Light Media was listed on August 3, 2011, with a closing price of 74 yuan on the day of listing. The total share capital after the initial public offering was 109.6 million shares, with a market value of 8.11 billion yuan on the day of listing. On May 23, 2016, due to changes in the share capital of bonus and transfer, it was 293.36 million shares. The stock price on June 3 was the highest, reaching 12.53 yuan, and the market value reached the highest 36.758 billion yuan.
On December 9, 2010, Bona Film Group closed at US$6.6, with a share capital of 100 million shares and a market value of US$660 million.
Until its delisting on April 8, 2016, Bona disclosed that its market value was US$885 million.
Not very objectively speaking, Bona has been with Nasdaq for 6 years, but its market value is not as good as the starting price of its competitors back then!
The light with a market value of more than 7 times Bona's, but its actual profitability is not as good as Bona's...
Since 2010, the Chinese film market has entered an era of crazy growth.
Until 2016, China's total box office reached 45.712 billion yuan, and the total box office in the United States was US$113.77, equivalent to RMB 75.569 billion. It can be seen that in the past six years, China not only ranked second largest film market in the world, but also easily defeated the United States' 1.24% with an average annual growth rate of 28.4%...
The American film industry has entered a period of stability, and there will be no sudden doubled in the value of film and television companies.
Yu Dong doesn't understand these things and naively thinks that the American market is big...
However, Zhang Junsheng will not help him adjust this idea. How great is an ally who will not threaten his own domestic layout!
...
"Mr. Yu, do you have any plans this year?" After chatting for a few words, Zhang Junsheng asked.
"The summer vacation is about to release "Keep Call" and "Eighty-One"..."
"Eighty-One-One Type"? Is Zhang Yu's movie?"
"…right."
Yu Dong looked at Zhang Junsheng in a little surprised.
"Eighty-One Characters" is a movie about college graduates and employment. The story is just that. I never expected that Zhang Junsheng actually knew about this drama!
The reason why Yu Dong chose to issue it is mainly because he has a good relationship with Zhang Yu.
Uh, let's put it this way, director Zhang Yu was his goddess back then - "Love in Lushan"...
"A good hype should be able to attract a lot of non-stock audiences..."
I smiled and skipped it.
"A Chinese Ghost Story 2" is scheduled to be released in August. He has watched all the schedules in the summer. "Eighty-One" is a three-no movie. The only highlight may be that its heroine is Wang Likun...
"Mr. Yu, I won't talk nonsense anymore. Let's make a movie together!"
“…What movie?”
Since Yu Dong is here, he must have guessed Zhang Junsheng’s intention.
The conflict between Yuehua and Dongyang is already well known to everyone!
At this time, can I find Bona, besides forming an alliance, do I have any other intentions?
"The Sound of the Wind, adapted from Maijia's novel, I personally directed it. The starring actors are currently bound by Zhou Xun, Xu Yan and Liang Jiahui!"
“…”
This is very sincere...
"…Don't you dislike Hong Kong and Taiwan actors?"
"This is a rumor! The team behind "A Chinese Ghost Story" is basically Hong Kong people. The ancient puppet dramas, screenwriters and director teams produced by our company are all Hong Kong people. How could I not like Hong Kong filmmakers? I just don't like those who are asking for money!"
"Yes! I'll ask for money!"
It seemed that he had touched Yu Dong, and the latter nodded desperately...
Haha, Chen Kexin is not that easy to compare with. "If Love" has accompanied 50 million yuan, and "The Certificate" has lost almost 100 million yuan...
Although Bona is not the main investor, he is responsible for issuance and investment!
Who can stand this continuous trickery of the financial owner?
Then, Chen Kexin actually asked for a share of the accounts...
A lot of money...
This is also the main reason why Bona and Chen Kexin broke up after "The Siege of October".
"So, I think it's more reliable to cultivate our own people."
"Owner?"
"Yes, Song Xiaofei, the director of "A Chinese Ghost Story 2", found Rao Xiaozhi in "Crazy Racing"..."
Yu Dong opened his mouth, but still shut up...
At the same time, I thought of another layer. Bona’s current development strategy is to rely on the Hong Kong circle, and Yuehua actually cultivates local talents.
There is no contradiction between the two and it is naturally suitable for alliance!
...
The union between Yuehua and Bona is not that simple. There are too many interests in this. Zhang Junsheng and Yu Dong met in private, but it was just a good start. The rest was negotiations between the people below...
In the blink of an eye, it was already the 26th, and the Cannes Film Festival ushered in its closing ceremony!
Previously, Natalie secretly told Zhang Junsheng that there was a fierce debate among the judges, and the judges had great differences on the ownership of the Palme d'Or, and no one could convince anyone.
The focus of the debate is on the two films: Crazy Stone and Between the Wall.
As expected, the Palme d'Or was produced in these two films.
Whether or not you can get the Palme d'Or in "Crazy Stone" is no longer something that Zhang Junsheng can control.
What he could do had already done to the extreme - he obeyed one of the female judges.
You can't take Sean Penn to sleep, right?
Do you know the man and go up?
On the day of the closing of the film festival, countless fans and media reporters gathered in front of the festival again. However, compared with the grand opening ceremony, the red carpet of the Cannes Film Festival closing ceremony was much smaller, and everyone's attention was also focused on the subsequent award ceremony.
"Tengou" and "Crazy Stone" have received invitations.
The call from the organizing committee.
This means that both movies won prizes!
The film festival has a tradition. The day before the film festival closes, the organizing committee notifies the award-winning crew to attend the award ceremony.
A crew that has not received the notice means no award...
Lao Jia has already led "Twenty-Four Cities" to South America, and he will once again compete in the Brazilian São Paulo International Film Festival and the Argentina Mar del Plata Film Festival...
"Of course I really hope "Crazy Racing" won the award, it's a cool movie!"
Chapter completed!
