It only took two or three days of hard work, Wen Yingguang brought good news, the office building was still rented according to the price given by the new League of Nations, and because Huo Yaowen needed a new color of photographic equipment, Wen Yingguang contacted a foreign manufacturer, and it would not be shipped until mid-July at the earliest.

Wen Yingguang said: "General manager, do you think we should rent a set of photographic equipment first, and then find someone to make a movie first and start work? ”

"What's the use of making a random movie? It's not a loss! If you pay more, you can pay more, and it's not that I can't afford to pay it. It is still the key to find a director to sign a contract with the company as soon as possible. ”

Huo Yaowen shook his head and rejected Wen Yingguang's suggestion, since he opened a film company, he didn't dare to say how good it was, at least one thing, the first movie must not go wrong.

"I know the general manager, and I'm already in contact with friends to help find out if there is a suitable director. ”

Seeing the boss's wealthy appearance, Wen Yingguang laughed dryly and didn't say much on this topic, and turned his head to report something else: "By the way, the general manager, the artist department has already negotiated a contract with Qingxia's parents, and it is for ten years like Yinmeng." ”

Huo Yaowen nodded: "As long as the contract is ready, but before the equipment is shipped, I hope to see a director signed by the company!"

When Wen Yingguang heard this, he immediately assured: "General manager, don't worry, I will definitely find it as soon as possible." ”

"Then let's do it first, I have something to go out, and I may not have time to take care of the company's affairs in the near future, so you should pay more attention. ”

"Got the general manager. ”

Before leaving, Huo Yaowen suddenly thought of something, turned back to Wen Yingguang and said, "By the way, you asked people to rent a high-end apartment near the University of Hong Kong on Hong Kong Island, and arranged for Hu Yinmeng and Qingxia to live in it." ”

"Okay. ”

For the big boss's arrangement, Wen Yingguang implemented it as soon as possible, and asked people to rent a high-end apartment on Hong Kong Island for Hu Yinmeng and Qingxia to live in on the same day.

Houses are easy to find, everywhere, but the director is a little difficult, according to the boss's previous instructions, he will definitely not find those unknown people, and those famous directors almost have a place to go.

I didn't find a suitable one for many days, which also worried Wen Yingguang didn't sleep well for a few nights, for fear that the general manager would come to him for trouble, but fortunately, the new photographic equipment would not arrive in Hong Kong for half a month, and he still had a little time to find it.

......

July 5th.

Inside the auditorium of the Faculty of Letters, HKU.

"The years carry the pace of history, the heaven and the earth accumulate the essence of civilization, and it is another year of brilliance, and another season of peach and plum fragrance. During his seven-year tenure, the University has expanded rapidly, with the Faculty of Social Sciences, the Faculty of Law, and the Faculty of Philosophy established one after another, all of which are inseparable from the hard work and reform efforts of President Lok......

Director Huang recited his speech on the stage, and there was a crowd of school staff, a very small number of students from the student union, as well as celebrities from the outside world and several trustees of the University of Hong Kong.

"Let's invite Principal Le Pinchun to come to the stage to give us a speech!"

With Director Huang's words, the audience applauded.

Zhang Chengyi applauded and whispered: "Lao Huang's kung fu has improved a lot compared to before he became the director." ”

After a few months of recuperation, Zhang Chengyi's health has improved a lot, and this time I heard that Le Pinchun held a retirement event, and he also came to join in the fun.

However, when it is said to be retired, it is actually forced to retire, and the dismissal is not good, so it is changed to retirement.

Huo Yaowen grinned: "Otherwise, why is he still Director Huang now, but the principal has already stepped down?"

Zhang Chengyi said with a smile: "That is, I have known Lao Huang for more than 20 years, and I have gone through four terms of principals, and he is getting bigger and bigger, but I am retired." ”

Huo Yaowen complimented: "That's because you don't want to fight, teacher, otherwise, with your ability, you can at least be a vice principal, and you won't reluctantly accept the position of professor before retirement." ”

"Haha, I love what you say, but if I really want to be the vice principal or director, I really can't be it. Zhang Chengyi knew that he was not an official, so over the years, he has been teaching and educating people diligently.

Before Huo Yaowen could say anything, Le Pinchun had already stepped onto the stage and began to deliver a speech.

"First of all, I would like to thank all my colleagues and students for attending my retirement ceremony, and my seven years at HKU have been the happiest day of my life, as I have witnessed the birth of a world-class university in my hands......

Listening to Le Pinchun's speech, Zhang Chengyi suddenly said, "Yaowen, do you know who the new principal is?"

Huo Yaowen pointed to a person sitting in the first row in front of him: "Well, sitting next to Director Huang in the first row is the new principal." ”

Zhang Chengyi was a little old, took out his glasses from his pocket and put them on, and took a closer look, but the other party always had his back to the person, and he couldn't see his face clearly.

But at this time, the new principal suddenly turned his face to the side and said something to Director Huang, which made him look carefully, and couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice: "Huang Lisong!"

"Teacher, do you know him?" Huo Yaowen was surprised, he didn't say the name of the new principal.

"Yes, of course I do. ”

Zhang Chengyi didn't seem to wake up from his surprise, and said after a while: "He is also a graduate of Hong Kong University, he should have graduated during the Japanese invasion in 42, and later I heard that he went overseas." ”

HKU graduates!

Huo Yaowen's heart suddenly understood, no wonder, I said how to invite the president of Nanyang University to be the president of Hong Kong University, this is a relationship!

Ten minutes later, Le Pinchun's tirade finally came to an end, and several directors of the University of Hong Kong personally took the stage to present Le Pinchun with a "meritorious retirement" award, which was a beautiful name for the old president of an honor, which was actually a consolation.

After a while, when the ceremony was over, everyone began to gradually move to the drinking party that had been arranged in the building on the left, but Huo Yaowen was stunned for a few seconds, he thought that the new principal would still speak on stage, and he was familiar with everyone in advance, but he didn't wait until it was over. After all, it is the retirement ceremony of the old principal, what is the matter with the new principal running to the stage?

"Mr. Huo!"

After entering the cocktail party, Huo Yaowen picked up a glass of champagne and began to chat with a few teachers he knew, when suddenly someone behind him called his name, and when he looked back, it was Zhang Tianze, who participated in the charity dinner last time.

"I didn't expect you to come, Dean Zhang. ”

Huo Yaowen smiled and stepped forward to shake hands with him, and subconsciously glanced at the person standing next to him.

Well, it's the new principal Huang Lisong.

"Yes, Mr. Huo. ”

The two exchanged a few words, and Zhang Tianze introduced with a smile on his face: "Mr. Huo, let me introduce you to you, this is Huang Lisong, the president of our Nanyang University. ”

Because Huang Lisong has not yet taken office, and the position of president there has not yet been retired, Zhang Tianze introduced him as the president of Nanyang University, which is fine.

After that, when Zhang Tianze was about to introduce Huo Yaowen, he only heard Huang Lisong say: "Dean Zhang doesn't need to be introduced, Mr. Huo and I naturally know him." When I went to the UK last year, I heard of Mr. Huo's name. ”

Looking at Huang Lisong's outstretched hand, Huo Yaowen stepped forward to shake him and said with a smile: "Hello Principal Huang."
