Qintex Ltd. was an Australian company that came to prominence during the 1980s, until its collapse in January 1991. Its main shareholder and Managing Director was Christopher Skase. At its peak, Qintex owned interests in the Australian Television Network (Channel 7), Mirage Resorts, Hardy Brothers jewellery retail concern and a number of other businesses. Its headquarters was in Brisbane, Australia. ==History== Christopher Skase and his partners established a company in 1975 that subsequently gained control of Qintex. He expanded the company substantially, initially into retail with investments in Hardy Bros and car dealer Nettlefolds. Qintex also expanded into property development. In 1984, Qintex bought TVQ-0, a Brisbane television station. Later Qintex purchased HSV-7 and ATN-7 from John Fairfax. In 1988, the company invested in an entertainment company named Qintex Entertainment (today Sonar Entertainment), formed by the merger of American studios Hal Roach Studios and Robert Halmi Incorporated. In 1989, the company was struggling to meet interest payments and sold a share in their Mirage Resorts for in excess of $433 million. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Qintex」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
