After rushing back to Hong Kong in the summer, the second magic movie exhibition was just around the corner.

He took a bus directly from the airport to Elizabeth Stadium to host the opening ceremony. He changed clothes, put on makeup, read speeches and other things were done in the nanny's car. This was a bit like the case in "The Hangover".

By the time he arrived at the film festival in summer, he was ready. The straight suit made him very grand, and the exquisite makeup made him energetic and radiant, not at all tired of flying all night.

After arriving at the film festival, with the help of the staff, he came to the front desk from the back door of the gymnasium.

"Mr. Xia, it's great that you can arrive in time. Everyone is looking forward to waiting for you." He Chaoqiong was relieved when he saw him coming.

"Okay, I get it." Xia Tian nodded, and then, accompanied by everyone, climbed to the ceremony platform in front of the Elizabeth Stadium.

In the square outside the gymnasium, tens of thousands of tourists have been waiting here since 9 o'clock in the morning. One of the purposes of their visit to the film festival is to be able to meet their favorite stars.

Xia Tian is one of the most popular stars in the Hong Kong entertainment industry, even more popular than Zhou Runfa, Cheng Long, Hong Jingbao, etc. Therefore, when the people saw him, they all cheered excitedly.

Xia Tian also waved to everyone with a smile, and then delivered a short but enthusiastic speech.

"I wish you all a happy time!" After the speech, he said with a smile.

Hearing what he said, the tourists cheered.

...

After the speech, the second spiritual film exhibition officially opened.

Visitors entered one after another with their tickets and officially entered the gymnasium for a tour.

Xia Tian retreated to the backstage with everyone.

"Mr. Xia, what are you getting to the United States this time?" Zou Wenhuai asked with a smile.

"There is no gain, but there is still some effort." Xia Tian smiled, "I spent another 400 million US dollars to go to the United States this time."

"Really?!" When everyone heard this, they were all shocked.

"Mr. Xia, what are you doing?" Huang Baiming asked curiously.

“I bought a record company in the United States, Geffen Records,” Xia Tian explained, “Have you heard of this name?”

Everyone shook their heads. They are basically people in the film industry. If you talk about Hollywood, you may still know something. As for the American record industry, asking them is like asking Yu Yu Blind.

"Mr. Xia, what kind of record company is that? Why is it so expensive?" He Chaoqiong asked in confusion.

Summer simply explained the overview of Geffen Records.

When everyone heard that even famous musicians such as John Lennon, Bob Dylan, Elton John, and the Eagles were responsible for releasing records, they couldn't help but respect the record company.

It is indeed not easy to allow these world-class music stars to cooperate with it. It is worth spending 400 million US dollars.

But that was still 400 million US dollars after all, equivalent to 3 billion Hong Kong dollars. For everyone here, it was really an astronomical figure. Seeing that Xia Tian didn't blush and didn't beat his heart or speak, he took out so much money, which was indeed enviable.

...

"Congratulations to Mr. Xia, you have another big gain." Huang Baiming smiled, "The US record market is so prosperous now, so you will definitely make a lot of money."

"Yes, the Hong Kong record industry has been so popular in the past two years. A record can be sold for hundreds of thousands, not to mention the American record industry." Zou Wenhuai smiled, "Mr. Xia, you really bought a chicken that can lay golden eggs this time."

"Mr. Xia is really ambitious. He first bought Columbia Performance Film and then bought Rainbow Media Holdings. Now he bought Geffen Records." Wu Siyuan said with a smile, "Then you are really a top entertainment tycoon in the United States. I guess Murdoch may not be your opponent."

Murdoch is the most familiar media tycoon among Hong Kong people. He made his fortune in Australia, started his business with several family tabloids, and gradually grew into Australia's largest media tycoon.

He then switched to the UK and acquired the Daily Mirror, the Sun, the Times, etc., becoming the largest newspaper tycoon in the UK.

Later, he turned to the United States and bought the New York Post, the Voice of the Country, the Boston Herald, etc. He also bought Fox Pictures, founded Fox TV, and became a well-known media tycoon in the United States.

In addition, in 1983, Murdoch also bought the South China Morning Post, the largest sales English newspaper in Hong Kong. This incident caused a huge sensation at the time and was considered a sign of his entry into Hong Kong.

Therefore, Hong Kong people have some understanding of Murdoch. In their opinion, Murdoch started from a family tabloid to now growing into the world's top media tycoon, which is really very, very powerful.

Similarly, Xia Tian has grown from being a penniless to become a world-class media tycoon, which is also very powerful. Because his starting point is lower than Murdoch, his struggle time is shorter than Murdoch, and his achievements seem to be comparable, Xia Tian is undoubtedly even more powerful.

"Murdoch?" Xia Tian smiled slightly.

To be honest, he never regarded Murdoch as his opponent. Because his goal is very different from Murdoch.

Murdoch has always been committed to controlling public opinion. He bought newspapers and magazines everywhere to achieve this goal. Even it acquired Fox Pictures not to shoot movies, but to its TV stations.

Xia Tian’s ambition is to entertain the public, so he acquired film companies, TV stations, and record companies to bring happiness to everyone.

However, although the goals are different, summer has a premonition that sooner or later he will compete with Murdoch.

Because although their paths are different, they have different paths and the same ends. In the end, they all want to become the world's top media tycoons, so competition will inevitably arise. But summer doesn't want this competition to be detonated too early!

...

"Mr. Xia, there are 45 film companies participating in this film festival, and 76 spiritual movies participated in, setting a new high." He Chaoqiong then reported to Xia Tianhui, "There are as many as 265 film companies from all over the world, which has also made a breakthrough compared to last year.

In addition, 300,000 tickets have been sold, and 150,000 tickets are sold. For ticket revenue alone, we are expected to earn about 20 million Hong Kong dollars."

Xia Tian nodded, "Thank you for your hard work, Miss He."
