Recently, the news that "Dalian Wanda Commercial Management's 16.2 billion yuan equity has been frozen" has made the people who eat melons very worried, what will happen to Wanda at the end? How should Wang Jianlin crack it? While everyone was still speculating, the frozen equity problem was solved.
Wanda's annoyance this time was the Yangzhou branch of Minsheng Bank, which applied to freeze this part of the equity before the lawsuit because of a dispute over a financial loan contract. A few days before the incident, Dalian Wanda Commercial Management had 5.07 billion shares frozen, in fact, this part of the equity was frozen in July last year, and it was also unfrozen soon after. Under normal circumstances, the equity freeze will not affect the continued exercise of shareholder rights, nor will it affect the actual control of the company, but the frequent news of equity freezes is also estimated to have a significant impact on Wanda's confidence. Fortunately, these equity freezes can basically turn the danger into a disaster, which is inseparable from Wang Jianlin's ability to cross and close in a short period of time.
For example, the dispute between Wanda and Vanke. In July 2020, Vanke invested in Changchun North Film Capital Investment Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Wanda, and Vanke was ready to build a large market called "Vanke Starlight City", with a total construction area of 688,000 square meters. Normally, Wanda is responsible for the commercial real estate part of the project, and Vanke is responsible for the residential part, and everyone makes money together. But the two sides broke up in the end, and there was a dispute over the final account of more than one billion. Still, things turned out well. Of course, the terms of the reconciliation between the two sides are unknown, and in any case, Wang Jianlin let the difficult Yu Liang let go.
To a certain extent, Wang Jianlin can be called Wanda's chief crisis public relations master, and in Wanda's continuous "selling, selling, selling" last year, there was also a person named Ke Liming who took over in time to help Wang Jianlin recover. In December last year, Wanda Film announced that it would change hands, and the actual controller would be changed from Wang Jianlin to Ke Liming. Ke Liming is 40 years old and worked in investment banking earlier, and later joined the film and television industry. His Chinese Ruyi has invested in many high-grossing films in the past two years. As Wanda's high-quality asset, Wanda Film has served as Wang Jianlin's cash-out weapon several times, and as the company changed hands, his film dream had to be abandoned.
According to the just-released 2024 Hurun Global Rich List, the wealth of Wang Jianlin's family continues to shrink, and Wang Jianlin is still fighting for more chances of survival for Wanda. Lao Wang in 2024, I believe he can create more good results!
