Chapter 837 Different from the past

Speaking of Oriental Movie Metropolis, the groundbreaking ceremony earlier this year was still very grand.

Several of the most well-known Hollywood stars, including Leonardo DiCaprio and Nicole Kidman, as well as the currently popular actors of the "Avengers" such as Robert Downey Jr. and Scarlett Johansson, and other Hollywood stars with close ties to Marvel-MGM Studios, also appeared at this ceremony in Qindao.

It can be said that shareholders of Tianhe Oriental Movie Metropolis Group, including Blue Valley Capital and Marvel-MGM Studios, also used a lot of connections for this ceremony.

Fan Bingbing was also radiant in this ceremony, standing together with those Hollywood stars - as one of the most well-known Chinese actresses in Europe and the United States at this time, because she starred in the popular American TV series "War of Successors" and made cameos in several Hollywood movies, even if these stars had never seen Fan Bingbing before, they at least knew her.

And as one of the bosses of Tianhe Capital, Fan Bingbing can be said to be the investor of this Oriental Film Metropolis, which is naturally different from other Chinese stars.

For example, the two kings of Huayi Company, who also attended this event and currently dominate the Chinese film and television circle, have completely different attitudes towards Fan Bingbing.

You know, since the successful listing on the A-share market in 2009, Huayi Company can be said to be in the limelight and has firmly sat on the top spot of China's domestic private film and television companies.

However, because of this, they have had a lot of contact with the "Tianhe Group" and naturally understand Fan Bingbing's current status-not to mention that after Barron transferred his shares in Huayi Company to Fan Bingbing's name, she herself is one of the major shareholders of Huayi Company. Just say that Tianhe Film and Television Investment Company's investment in the domestic film and television industry is currently unmatched by other capital.

Otherwise, how come many people now call some film and television program production companies controlled by Nanjing Automobile Group, Tianhe Real Estate and Tianhe Capital "Tianhe Group"

The key is the background of Tianhe Capital, the core of Tianhe Group. Few people know it. Even the few who know the relationship between it and Barron are tight-lipped and will not tell the public. This also involves the "preferential treatment" of some upper-level officials to Barron, an old friend of China, and the reason why they did not investigate it too seriously. After all, the scale of his industry and investment in China is enough to attract attention.

This makes the background of "Tianhe Group" particularly mysterious in the eyes of outsiders. Even if it can be found that Fan Bingbing himself exists as the legal person of Tianhe Capital, he will normally be considered a "white glove". Think about who needs to use "white gloves"? This is even more unspeakable.

Although Huayi, the second king, can be said to be a leading enterprise in China's film and television industry, Wang Zhongjun is now the last seat in the "Taishan Club".

Therefore, in front of Fan Bingbing, they are now very positive.

After all, the market value of the entire Huayi Company is less than 20 billion yuan, and the total investment in the Oriental Movie Metropolis project alone exceeds 50 billion yuan...

After the groundbreaking ceremony, the first phase of the Oriental Movie Metropolis project has begun construction. It is expected that the main project of the entire Oriental Movie Metropolis will be completed within four years, that is, in the second quarter of 2015.

However, the film and television production base of the first phase of the project will be completed in the third quarter of next year, and then some film and television and variety shows will be produced...

And the Marvel-MGM theme park will be completed in 2013 and open in the second half of that year.

It can be said that the progress of the construction is still very fast. When talking to Fan Bingbing, Barron knew that the construction there was in full swing.

...

In Barron's previous life, there was always a saying that the Mayans predicted that 2012 would be the end of the world.

The disaster movie "2012" also left a deep impression on Barron.

But when Barron entered 2012 for the second time, the world was still running as usual, and no doomsday disaster occurred.

It is worth mentioning that on December 30, 2011, after his father passed away, the young man known as "the strongest post-80s on the surface" combed his hair back and stood at the pinnacle of power on the peninsula.

After New Year's Day, Barron temporarily left Lanai Island and arrived in New York to visit Ivanta and their child Theodore.

When Barron met Ivanta, she had just returned from Android:

"Android will release a new version next month, adding many features to cope with the competition from iOS. In addition, WP cannot be ignored. According to the news, they will launch WP8 later this year and make major adjustments."

The upcoming Android system has reached version 4.0, known as Ice Cream Sandwich.

Although Google has basically withdrawn from the competition of mobile operating systems - their GOS system, the last time a major version change was released, was a year and a half ago...

But Android can't say that it can breathe a sigh of relief. After all, in addition to the iOS system of Apple, its main competitor, Microsoft has always been obsessed with mobile operating systems.

Although their WP (Windows Phone) operating system has never had a high market share, it has always maintained a sense of presence.

They even gained a portion of the market share vacated by Google GOS due to its withdrawal...

After completing the acquisition of Motorola Mobility, Android obtained a large number of mobile phone system-related patents. In the years of competing with Apple's iOS, Android has also summed up its experience and started to tighten the power of the loose open platform of the original Android system to improve the low compatibility of the Android system between different devices. After all, compared with the iOS system firmly controlled by Apple, the most headache for those application manufacturers for the Android system is the need to test compatibility...

And from the huge profits of Apple's Appstore, Android also saw the "money prospect" in it-although Android has also launched its own Play Store, even if the market share of Android is slightly higher, the revenue is still far less than that of Appstore.

These are all areas that Android needs to improve in the future.

"There is another thing, baby, Avago will make an important acquisition next, and I hope IC Capital can also participate at that time..."

When Chen Fuyang was preparing to acquire Broadcom, Barron got Zhang Junning's feedback at the first time, and he also agreed with this acquisition.

After all, from the perspective of future development, in his previous life, Chen Fuyang successfully reaped a considerable portion of the dividends of AI development through this acquisition.

However, now Avago is 83.3% owned by Rich23 Capital. It can be said that except for some listed circulating shares, the rest of Avago shares are in the hands of Rich23 Capital and Chen Fuyang (holding 1.7%).

But after acquiring Broadcom, their scale will reach the forefront of the world, so only if more American capital joins in will it not hinder future expansion.

This is also the main reason why Barron is preparing to participate in this acquisition through IC Capital.
