Chapter 30: Meeting with Run Run Shaw
The rapid development of Jiayi Group in the past few months is indispensable to Zhou Liang Shuyi's ability. In the few months that she mastered Jiayi Group, with the support of Li Guangyu's funds, many talents from the two major TV stations were poached by her.
Because of this, Run Run Shaw also specially approached Li Guangyu, and Li's board of directors even improved the treatment of its employees.
Lee still vividly remembers the day he met Run Run Shaw, who arrived at the Peninsula Hotel where he had an appointment with Lee at 10 a.m. on November 6.
"Guangyu, I'm so old, now I want to run a wireless TV station well, Zhou Liang Shuyi will come to my wireless side to poach people if it's okay, is this really good?" Run Run Shaw said to Li Guangyu.
Li Guangyu didn't ask much about the Jiayi Group, and now he is concentrating on the Starlight Real Estate Group and the game company, and Li Guangyu doesn't expect the Jiayi Group to make any money, the reason why he established the Jiayi Group is mainly to grasp part of the public opinion guidance of Xiangjiang and improve its status in Xiangjiang.
Hearing Run Run Shaw say this, I knew that it must be Zhou Liang Shuyi who dug up the general of wireless, otherwise Run Run Shaw would not have made a special trip to invite him to tea.
Li Guangyu said: "Sixth uncle, you also know that I have a lot of companies, and I am busy with the real estate company during this time, so I don't care much about the affairs of Jiayi Group, please say something." ”
"Guangyu, you are making money in several major group companies now, but you just threw the money on Jiayi's side, and Zhou Liang Shuyi threw money when she saw an individual, so it's not good to disrupt the artist market in Xiangjiang, doesn't this raise our production costs?"
"Oh, Uncle Six, I really don't know much about this, I'll go back to the company and ask. ”
Run Run Shaw said: "Guangyu, I didn't say you, you handed over such a big group to Zhou Liang Shuyi without asking, are you sure she can lead the group well? Zhou Liang Shuyi I know very well, she has worked in our wireless for many years, she does have the ability, but many of her ideas and the interests of shareholders are not very consistent. She's thinking more about ratings and less about costs for shareholders, as is the case now?"
Li Guangyu knew that it must be Zhou Liang Shuyi who offended Run Run Shaw this time, otherwise Run Run Shaw would not have given her eye medicine. However, based on Zhou Liang Shuyi's previous experience, it seems that she does not pay much attention to the company's costs.
"Sixth uncle, don't I have no one under me? Like you, there are many talents under Wireless, and it is the Whampoa Military Academy, which is known as the Xiangjiang film and television artist. As for the cost issue, I went back to discuss with the group, we are going to make money by opening a company, not charity, you can rest assured, I will not let it disturb the value of today's Xiangjiang artists. ”
Run Run Shaw was very happy to hear Li Guangyu say this, he was not angry with the few people Zhou Liang Shuyi had dug before, he was afraid that Li Guangyu didn't care about the company's interests and threw money indiscriminately, with Li Guangyu's current profits of several major groups, no matter how many talents in wireless were hollowed out by Li Guangyu.
"Guangyu, it's great if you think so, we are both Chinese TV stations, we should cooperate with each other, mutual benefit and win-win results, you lack talents, you can go to the next Li's to find it, Li's as a British-funded consortium-controlled TV station, we can squeeze it out of Xiangjiang." Run Run Shaw encouraged Lee Guangyu.
Li Guangyu knew in his heart that this was because Run Run Shaw saw that Jiayi couldn't suppress Jiayi now, so he wanted Jiayi to kill Li's first, and then the two TV stations would compete with each other. In this regard, Li Guangyu has no opinion.
"Sixth uncle, you are right, in this era, if we Chinese want to develop well, the most important thing is unity. I fully agree with your opinions, and the TV station in Xiangjiang is still in the hands of our own Xiangjiang people. ”
Seeing that Li Guangyu agreed with his opinion, Run Run Shaw was thinking about how to defeat Li's as soon as possible, and then slowly scheming with Zhou Liang Shuyi.
"Guangyu, we wireless and Shaw Brothers film companies can cooperate with each other, and our company's artists can also communicate with each other! I think this is more conducive to the development of our two companies. ”
Li Guangyu heard that his head was a little unable to turn, what did those Hong Kong entertainment novels say in his previous life. If you don't kill Shaw Brothers, it seems that Shaw Brothers will always do it alone, and Shaw Brothers will not cooperate with others if they drag it to death. It's not the same at all right now.
Run Run Shaw was definitely a shrewd businessman, and businessmen always avoided bad luck. Now that I can't suppress Li Guangyu's Jiayi Group, and my Shaw Brothers are facing the squeeze of Golden Harvest, pulling Li Guangyu's Jiayi is definitely beneficial to Shaw Brothers. Maybe I can kill Lidi and Jiahe, so I talked about cooperation with Li Guangyu today.
Li Guangyu is very moved by Run Run Shaw's proposal, and what Li Guangyu's Jiayi Group lacks now is not money, but people. It just so happens that Wireless and Shaw Brothers have a lot of talents, and they can complement Jiayi Group.
As for Jiahe and Li's, it is not Li Guangyu's concern. In the previous life, there were many novel protagonists who were able to go to heaven, saying that they wanted to maintain the competitiveness of Xiangjiang's TV and movies. deliberately supported several companies to compete with each other, Li Guangyu didn't know what he thought, anyway, Li Guangyu didn't have such thoughts at all. Li Guangyu never thought about what kind of savior he wanted to be, and this earth would turn the same way without anyone.
Li Guangyu said to Run Run Shaw with a smile on his face: "Uncle Six, I am very happy that our two companies can cooperate for a win-win situation. I will go to Jiayi Group in the afternoon to arrange this matter. Thank you Uncle Six for your support to our company. ”
......
In the afternoon, Li Guangyu came to Jiayi Building, went around the various departments of the building, and then came to the office and said to the secretary Du Yuemei: "You go and ask President Zhou Liang Shuyi to come." ”
"Okay, Mr. Li. Du Yuemei replied and went out.
Li Guangyu looked at some important documents of the group in his office.
Zhou Liang Shuyi came in and said, "Li Sheng, do you have any instructions for me?"
Li Guangyu asked Zhou Liang Shuyi to sit down and said, "I didn't plan to come over today, but this morning Uncle Shao invited me to tea and talked to me about something, so I came over to take a look and discuss something with you by the way." ”
Zhou Liang Shuyi thinks that Run Run Shaw is really stingy, didn't he just poach a few people in your company, and he can use it to find his boss directly?
said to Li Guangyu: "Li Sheng, please say something about you." ”
"Actually, it's not a big deal, Uncle Shao didn't blame you for digging a few of him, mainly to talk to me about the cooperation between our two companies. Of course, forget about the people who were dug before, don't go to wireless to poach people in the future,"
When Zhou Liang Shuyi heard Li Guangyu say this, she immediately said happily: "With the support of Shaw Brothers and wireless entertainers, our group will no longer face the embarrassment of insufficient personnel." But Li Sheng, our group still has to develop our own artists. ”
"Sixth Uncle Shao has helped us think about it, let's go to Lidi and Jiahe to dig, our sixth uncle is very good, this is for us to help him get rid of the two big enemies, and then slowly compete with us. ”
After listening to Li Guangyu's words, Zhou Liang Shuyi also knew Run Run Shaw's thoughts, and said to Li Guangyu: "Li Sheng, don't worry, our company will definitely surpass Wireless and Shaw Brothers." ”
Li Guangyu continued to say to him: "In the future, you can be a little higher than other companies in terms of employee treatment and artist value, don't raise the price of those stars too much." A movie should not spend most of its cost on actors and lead to a decrease in the quality of the film. ”
Zhou Liang Shuyi immediately responded: "Li Sheng, I will do what you instruct, some time ago, the company was really short of people, so I went to poach people at a high price." Now that there's wireless cooperation, I don't have to use that anymore. ”
