Chapter 91: A Great Temptation?
After the completion of Hong Kong Lai Yuan in Hong Kong Ocean Park, the popularity is not as good as before, and the number of tourists every year has also dropped a lot.
Liyuan, Xu Ziming will choose to go, but she Huang Zaoshi is a little puzzled.
Xu Ziming didn't explain why, since Huang Zaoshi knew, then he asked for directions directly.
Huang Zaoshi was also bored, Xu Ziming warmly invited her to get in the car to guide the route, and a group of people stumbled towards Liyuan.
Xu Ziming had heard of Liyuan, and in his previous life, he had also had a lot of information about Liyuan, but where the location was, he really didn't remember, after arriving at Liyuan, after listening to the introduction of the staff in Liyuan, he knew that Liyuan was close to Lizhijiao, located in Jiuhua Avenue, Kwai Tsing District.
Lai Chi Kok Bay is a beach on the northern side of the sea and has not been affected by the reclamation relationship, so Lai Yuen also provides free changing rooms for bathers to change clothes, store clothes and wash up to attract people. However, due to the reclamation of Lai Chi Kok Bay, the beach changing rooms in Lai Yuen were officially closed in 1985.
Liu Lanxi doesn't look restrained at all, like a frequent visitor here, Xu Ziming is not ready to swim on the beach, but she has changed into swimsuits in the locker room, and Huang Zaoshi is the same.
"Mr. Xu, can you swim? After the two of them walked to the beach, they suddenly realized that there was another Xu Ziming, and waved and shouted.
Xu Ziming tilted his head and smiled, if he was not a real gentleman but a pervert, he would definitely agree, but "You swim, I'll rest on the beach." ”
"That'll do. Liu Lanxi pouted, slightly disappointed.
Most of the people on the beach are couples, and there are very few people like Xu Ziming who read on the beach and enjoy the blue sea during the day, not that he doesn't have the courage to play, but that he doesn't have the fun of playing, why do you say that, I'm afraid only Xu Ziming himself knows this.
"You're a bit different, young man. The voice of the old man echoed in Xu Ziming's ears like a bell, Xu Ziming quickly turned his head, the dazzling sunlight was refracted in the glass lens, and the old man's eyes were very sharp.
"Uncle Qiu. Xu Ziming's mind was filled with these two words, and he immediately got up and shouted.
The Xu family has a cooperative relationship with many wealthy families, and naturally Xu Ziming when he was a child also had more opportunities than ordinary people to meet some people who can be called rich.
Qiu Degen and the Xu family's friendship is average, but Xu Ziming and Qiu Degen have met before, so they won't look strange and embarrassed when they look at each other, and Uncle Qiu still makes it.
Qiu Degen is the founder of Far Eastern Group and the former chairman of Asia Television. It's just that the current ATV name is still called Li's, and Li's equity is still held in the hands of an Australian consortium, and Qiu Degen's real stay in Li's time is also next year, that is, 82 years.
At the same time, he also has a layer of identity, he is also the owner of this liyuan. Speaking of Liyuan, this is his hard work, just like the Far Eastern Bank, but with the completion of the Ocean Park in 76 years, the income of Liyuan, the number of tourists is declining year by year, and the newly built Songcheng is almost becoming a decoration, and few tourists visit.
Xu Ziming couldn't bear to leave the two beauties, and followed Qiu Degen to find a place and sit down. But Xu Ziming's heart was quite confused.
After Qiu Degen's generous support of his subordinates, he said with a smile: "You are a hot bait in Hong Kong now, and many people know you, so don't wonder why I found you in so many people." ”
Xu Ziming's puzzled expression quickly dissipated, "Uncle Qiu, is there something wrong?" ”
"Hmm. Qiu Degen was real, pondered for a moment, and said bluntly: "You can be regarded as making some fame in the entertainment industry, but it is also a small fight." Hong Kong's box office of 20 million I heard that you wrote the script of the movie, and it seems that you also wrote the recent "God of Gamblers", your business acumen is very good, it is no wonder that you alone in Wharf alone occupied hundreds of millions. ”
Xu Ziming was not proud of this praise, and his expression did not change in the slightest.
Qiu Degen then said: "You have more than one billion capital, but you don't have a large company owned by yourself, I don't understand." I heard that you seem to be a minority shareholder of Xinyi City and Kowloon Bus, and you don't have enough right to speak. You say you're not fooling around. ”
Qiu Degen looked at Xu Ziming with a strange look. Xu Ziming couldn't understand the implication of Qiu Degenshui's words, but he didn't deny his opinion.
Seeing Xu Ziming nodding, Qiu Degen's sharp eyes seemed to capture some opportunity, and said: "It's better to sell the wireless shares in my hand to you, and how about you and I invest in Liyuan together." Don't look at the current slump in Liyuan, but if you are willing to invest, we will join forces, if we can get Hong Kong's reclamation approval, the area of Liyuan can be increased, and at the same time, we can develop a lot of prospects. When it comes to our equity reciprocity, you and I are both major shareholders. We have the final say on the development of Liyuan, and we don't have to look at people's faces like you in New Arts City and Kowloon Bus", Qiu Degen pointed at Xu Ziming and then pointed at himself, with a feeling that he was winning.
He Qiu Degen doesn't do money-losing business, and he doesn't know Xu Ziming's bottom thoroughly, and he doesn't dare to say this.
Wireless's equity is indeed an attractive thing, and the annual income of wireless alone is enough for the annual operation of several medium-sized film and television companies, but in Xu Ziming's view, although the income is a small profit, it is extremely unusual for Xu Ziming, who has memories of his previous life.
In addition, the current development of Liyuan is not as good as that of the undersea park, in addition to the geographical restrictions, there are also some problems with the system of Liyuan, and the entertainment facilities in Liyuan are much worse than those of Ocean Park. However, the current profit is still large.
Xu Ziming was curious about what Qiu Degen's purpose was. That's why these ideas come up with them all of a sudden.
Qiu Degen's proposal is not an abrupt move, the development of Liyuan is indeed a problem, and it is absolutely impossible to do Liyuan, plus he intends to live in Li's TV station, and he needs a lot of funds in hand. If more than 200 million yuan is withdrawn from the Far Eastern Group alone to buy Li's, then the problem of Liyuan will come, and it will not have the same economic strength as Ocean Park but maintain it.
Xu Ziming has always been a suitable candidate for a transaction in his heart, and he never expected to meet in Liyuan today, but it is naturally best to negotiate in such a scene today.
This is also why Qiu Degen will appear in front of Xu Ziming's eyes, even if there is no today, in a few days, he will have to find someone to talk about this matter.
There are many people in Hong Kong who start with the word 100 million, and there are no less than hundreds of them in Hong Kong, but Xu Ziming's personal assets are more than one billion, and people like him are a minority in Hong Kong, if the Xu family is taken into account, the market value of the Xu family should be nearly 7 billion.
"I think about the test rate. "Wireless's shares are a, and Liyuan is insignificant to Xu Ziming.
"Okay, our agreement counts at any time. Qiu Degen was in a good mood, Xu Ziming must have been moved, he opened his hands, and then stood up directly, "The entertainment industry is indeed a place to make a lot of money, and you can get high profits by investing in low cost, no wonder Shao Yifu is guarding Shaw Brothers alive and dead." ”
Xu Ziming was stunned, Qiu Degen seemed to be bound to stay in Li.
......
"Where did you go just now, I looked for you a few times and I didn't see you. Liu Lanxi, who was still looking for Xu Ziming's traces, Huang Zaoshi, saw Xu Ziming suddenly appear, Liu Lanxi said a little angrily.
"No, I just chatted with the owner of Liyuan. Xu Ziming said lightly, and the three of them changed back in their original clothes and prepared to go back.
Liu Lanxi didn't know, but Huang Zaoshi did, "Qiu Degen?"
Well, it's Qiu Degen, he wants me to invest in Liyuan and share the shares with him. ”
Huang Zaoshi shook his head and suggested: "Mr. Xu is wealthy, but I, a layman, know that the development of Liyuan is very bad. "Huang Zaoshi only knows a little about the surface.
In fact, Xu Ziming has his own sense of proportion, and if he invests in Liyuan, there are some risks, but if he manages it properly, he can still achieve it if he wants to return to the point of the year.
After sending the two back, Xu Ziming first called Sun Wugao to ask people to investigate Qiu Degen's recent actions and Liyuan's income in recent years. Xu Ziming's available funds are less than 100 million, and the funds cashed out by HSBC have not yet arrived, so he has to walk steadily at every step, and he doesn't want to be deceived by others as a big head, even Qiu Degen.
After finishing all this, he drove directly to Xinyi City, a place that once pinned on Xu Ziming's hope of showing his talents in the entertainment industry, but now it seems to be getting more and more bleak and irrelevant.
Why did he come back to Xinyicheng, it was Huang Baiming who informed him, he didn't say what the specific thing was, but Lei Juekun was very dissatisfied with him and thundered at the meeting, but fortunately, Xu Ziming was not present.
When Xu Ziming just went to his office, Xu Ke took a newspaper and ran to Xu Ziming with an abnormal face.
Xu Ke wanted to speak and stopped, then sighed, Xu Ziming smiled when he saw this: "Mr. Xu, I know what you want to say." ”
What news will be in this newspaper, Xu Ziming should make it clear that today's page of Oriental Daily is not about "God of Gamblers", but what else it will be.
The two entered the office, Xu Ke threw the newspaper directly on the table, and the two found a place and started talking: "Mr. Xu, you made a big deal about filming "God of Gamblers", not only on the radio promotion of TVB, but also today's poster is also popular. ”
Xu Ke is telling the truth, the publicity effect of "God of Gamblers" has overshadowed the popularity of "The Best Partner", but this "God of Gamblers" is a film co-produced by Xu Ziming and Shaw Brothers, and it has nothing to do with New Art City.
Lei Juekun was really angry, if it weren't for Xu Ziming's relationship with him, otherwise Lei Juekun would definitely scold Xu Ziming for being a guy who eats inside and outside when he sees this poster.
Xu Ziming didn't react much, got up to get two cups of tea, and handed Xu Ke a glass.
Since this movie has already been made, there is nothing to be afraid of, the place of New Art City, talents are also crowded, Huang Baiming Mecca is indeed a rare film talent.
However, whether the movie "God of Gamblers" should consider the interests of Xinyicheng, Xu Ziming has a benchmark in his heart.
