The acquisition of Standard Chartered Bank did not last long, because what happened on the mainland completely overshadowed the acquisition of Standard Chartered Bank. So, Jamie?? Dimon and Standard Chartered suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.

Regarding the affairs of the mainland, Su Chenyu is paying attention to them all the time, but he knows that these things are definitely not something that his little butterfly can participate in. Therefore, Su Chenyu chose to hide from afar from the beginning and wait for the changes.

However, Su Chenyu was not idle, in addition to studying the next "financial war" against Japan, he also had to accompany the beauties around him.

In addition to taking time, Su Chenyu also kept his promise and fulfilled the agreement to have afternoon tea with Xiang Huaqiang and his wife.

When Su Chenyu and Zhong Chuhong arrived at the teahouse, Xiang Huaqiang and his wife seemed to have been waiting there for a long time. When Xiang Huaqiang and his wife saw Su Chenyu and Zhong Chuhong coming, they quickly stood up and greeted the two.

"Brother Qiang, long time no see!" Su Chenyu said with a smile after shaking hands with Xiang Huaqiang.

Xiang Huaqiang also held Su Chenyu's hand with a smile on his face and said, "Brother Su, brother, I want to thank you very much." ”

Su Chenyu naturally understood the meaning of Xiang Huaqiang's words, but he didn't want Zhong Chuhong to know about these dark things, so he directly vaguely passed. After the four of them exchanged pleasantries, they sat down, and the next thing was naturally "appetizing" gossip.

"Brother Su, Yongsheng Film Company made a few films some time ago, and the box office was not bad. Xiang Huaqiang took the initiative to say: "By the way, the company is going to open a new film next, and the heroine wants to invite Honggu to act." ”

Zhong Chuhong looked at Su Chenyu after hearing this, and then refused: "Brother Qiang, I'm sorry, I may not have much time recently." ”

After listening to this, Xiang Huaqiang said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay, if Honggu doesn't have time, forget it." ”

"I don't know what kind of film it is?" asked Su Chenyu after taking the words.

"God of Gamblers", a new film directed by Wang Jing. Chen Lan explained with a smile: "Ah Qiang will also play a cameo role in it. ”

Su Chenyu couldn't help but nodded secretly, but he remembered that in his previous life, the two heroines of "God of Gamblers" were Zhang Min and Wang Zuxian. It seems that in this life, because of him, there are some small deviations.

"Oh, Brother Qiang is so interested. Su Chenyu pulled Zhong Chuhong's hand, and then said with a smile: "My dear, you see that even Brother Qiang is interested in participating in this movie, it should be very promising." Why don't you also find time to make a cameo role in it?"

Zhong Chuhong listened to Su Chenyu's words, thought for a while, and said, "It's okay." ”

"Okay, I'll tell Wang Jing the good news in a while, and ask him to stop looking for people. Xiang Huaqiang said with a smile, but he had already decided in his heart to remove Zhang Min, who had been set a long time ago.

Xiang Huaqiang found that the conversation was almost underway, so he gave Chen Lan a look. Chen Lan gave a knowing look back, and then took the initiative to say, "Honggu, our beauty shop is about to open." Why don't we go to the side and have a good discussion, so that these two big men don't know. ”

"Okay!" Zhong Chuhong also knew that Su Chenyu and Xiang Huaqiang must have something to say, so he nodded and replied.

Seeing Zhong Chuhong and Chen Lan go to the table in the distance hand in hand, Su Chenyu quietly waited for Xiang Huaqiang's next step with a cup.

"Thank you for your support to my brother in the previous paragraph, and the news sent by Mr. Cao Xuan in time. Xiang Huaqiang didn't make a detour, and said straight to the point.

Su Chenyu put down the cup, shook his hand at Xiang Huaqiang and said, "What's the matter?" I don't know what I, Cao Xuan, and even the Blackwater Security Company are involved in. ”

As soon as Xiang Huaqiang heard Su Chenyu's words, he knew that Su Chenyu didn't want to get involved in their business. But he wasn't angry at all, after all, people like Su Chenyu didn't want others to know that they were "black".

"yes, yes, it looks like my memory has deteriorated a lot. Xiang Huaqiang patted his forehead, and then said, "I actually forgot about the next important day." ”

"I'm sure someone will inform you. Su Chenyu said with a smile.

Xiang Huaqiang obviously heard Su Chenyu's words, and couldn't help but feel happy in his heart, smiled and took a few sips of the cup.

"Brother Qiang, I heard that Tycoon Shao of Wireless is going to sell the Shaw Brothers Cinema Line in his hand?" Su Chenyu suddenly asked.

Xiang Huaqiang didn't expect Su Chenyu to suddenly say this, and after being slightly stunned, he immediately said: "I don't know the specific situation, but I heard A Sheng mention it some time ago." Why is Brother Su also interested in the cinema chain?"

"Yes, I am very optimistic about the Hong Kong film market, otherwise I would not want to invest in Yongsheng. I'm very interested in Shaw Brothers' theaters, after all, if you want to grow big in the film industry, you can't do without your own distribution theaters. Su Chenyu didn't hide it, and said to Xiang Huaqiang's gaze.

"I don't know what I can help my brother?" Xiang Huaqiang asked very cooperatively, a shrewd person.

Su Chenyu couldn't help but secretly say in his heart that this is really powerful for the black boss, so he said: "I heard that Brother Qiang and Shao Tycoon have a very good relationship, and I just hope that I may be able to help me introduce him to the old man." ”

"That's fine. Xiang Huaqiang replied dryly.

This time, Su Chenyu's desire to acquire Shaw Brothers Cinemas was definitely not a whim, but something that he had been thinking about for a long time.

Su Chenyu has always had the idea of becoming big in the film and television industry, and the last time he invested in Yongsheng was a preset move. Therefore, for the Shaw Brothers Cinema Line, Su Chenyu has a bit of ambition.

The Shaw Brothers Cinema Line, a subsidiary of Shaw Brothers, is the largest cinema chain in Hong Kong. The Shaw Brothers Cinema Line has nearly 20 cinemas in Hong Kong, and all 20 cinemas are located in Hong Kong's prosperous areas. So whether it's the distribution capacity and customer flow, Shaw Brothers Cinemas is very attractive.

However, the Shaw Brothers Cinema Line was leased to Pan Disheng's Debao by Shao Tycoon a few years ago, and it was not until the 90s that all of it was packaged and sold to Pan Disheng.

Now Shao Daheng seems to have the idea of withdrawing from the film market early and specializing in the TV industry, so he will release the news that he will sell the theater chain.

Although from any point of view, Shao Daheng's sale of Shaw Brothers Cinemas to Pan Disheng is the best choice, but no one will be afraid of too much money, and naturally hopes that there will be a "spoiler" to increase the price.

Of course, Pan Disheng also knew Shao Daheng's thoughts, but he wasn't too worried.

The reason is very simple, he thought in his heart that Shao Daheng could only sell the theater chain to him. At present, there are three large-scale cinema chains in Hong Kong, namely the Shaw Brothers Cinema Line, the Golden Harvest Cinema Line and the Golden Princess Cinema Line in New Arts City.

Shao Daheng can only sell to a few objects, first of all, exclude Golden Harvest - the reason is self-evident, Xinyicheng is not considered, and the remaining film companies except him have the ability to eat such a big piece of cake.

Just when Pan Disheng thought that he could sit back and relax and hang Shao Daheng's appetite, he never thought that he would suddenly jump out of a spoiler.

After Xiang Huaqiang went back, he asked Xiang Huasheng in detail about the sale of Shaw Brothers Cinemas, and Xiang Huasheng naturally told his tenth brother everything he knew.

"Tenth brother, do you want to eat these theaters of the sixth uncle?" asked Xiang Huasheng to Xiang Huaqiang, who was leaning on the leather sofa and contemplating.

Xiang Huaqiang didn't seem to hear Xiang Huasheng's inquiry, and was still pondering, when Chen Lan, who was beside him, touched him with his arm. Xiang Huaqiang only reacted at this time, and then asked, "Ah Sheng, what did you say?"

"Ah Sheng asked if you want to eat the theater line in the hands of the sixth uncle?" Chen Lan said.

"And what do you think?"

Xiang Huasheng looked at his tenth brother's serious gaze, thought about it and said, "Tenth brother, I think it's a little unrealistic. ”

"What do you mean by that?" Chen Lan was interested.

"Although Yongsheng is growing step by step, it is completely impossible to swallow the Shaw Brothers Cinema Line in one bite. If you want to take over the Shaw Brothers Cinema Line in the hands of Uncle Six, it will take about 200 million Hong Kong dollars, which is not a small amount?" Xiang Huasheng said his thoughts: "And even if we don't have a theater chain, who in Hong Kong would dare not screen the movies made by our company?"

Xiang Huaqiang and Chen Lan both nodded after listening to Xiang Huasheng's words, agreeing with his explanation. Then explained to Hua Qiangcai: "It's not me, it's that Su Dashao who wants to win the Shaw Brothers Cinema Line." ”

"He?" asked Xiang Huasheng in surprise.

"yes!"

Xiang Huasheng pushed his glasses, and then said, "It's also good for us, after all, he is the majority shareholder of Yongsheng." If the theater chain falls into the hands of Pan Disheng's Debao, it will do us no harm. ”

"He asked me to help him make an appointment with Uncle Six. ”

"It's easy to do, but it's not certain whether you can win the theater in the end. After all, now the sixth uncle is still Pan Disheng who likes Debao in his heart. Xiang Huasheng said.

"Whether we can succeed or not is not our concern, we just need to help him make an appointment with Uncle Six, and he owes us a favor. Chen Lan said with a smile.

"Not bad. Xiang Huaqiang nodded and said.

The Peninsula Hotel is the oldest hotel in Hong Kong, and many of the wealthy and celebrities of the entertainment industry love to have afternoon tea and dine here. Sir Shaw agreed to the Xiang brothers' invitation to meet Su Chenyu at the Peninsula Hotel.

Entering the lobby through the glass door carved with a door god, the glittering giant crystal chandelier illuminates the Gothic cylindrical roof, and the whole lobby is resplendent with gold.

"Sir, how can I help you?" said the waiter in the lobby.

"I'm here for an appointment, Mr. Xiang Huaqiang. ”

The waiter glanced at Su Chenyu, and then said, "You are Mr. Su, right, please come with me, Mr. Xiang is in the lobby café." ”

Following the waiter to the lobby teahouse, Su Chenyu found that there were a lot of people drinking afternoon tea here, including many celebrities on the island. Along the way, Xiang Huaqiang in the seat stood up after seeing Su Chenyu's figure, which made the old man next to him slightly stunned.

"Mr. Xiang, Mr. Su is here. The waiter said respectfully.

"Go down. ”

Xiang Huaqiang shook hands with Su Chenyu, and then said to the energetic old man beside him: "Sixth uncle, this is Mr. Su Chenyu who wants to see your old man." ”

"Brother Su, this is the famous movie tycoon Shao Yifu in Xiangjiang, known as the sixth uncle. ”

Su Chenyu naturally knew this old man, and he knew that the teaching buildings and libraries named after him in the mainland could be said to be blooming everywhere. Moreover, when the old people of later generations died and drove the crane to the west, countless people who had studied or were studying in Shaw House expressed their sincere respect.

Looking at Shao Yifu, who was over 80 years old but still in good spirits in front of him, Su Chenyu said respectfully: "Boy Su Chenyu, I have heard of the name of the sixth uncle for a long time before I arrived in Xiangjiang, and the film and television tycoon is like thunder. ”

Shao Yifu is indeed worthy of the praise of the film and television tycoon, the old man smiled and waved his hand, and then motioned to Su Chenyu and said, "Su Sheng, please take a seat." What to order?"

"Feel free to do it. To be honest, Su Chenyu really didn't feel good about drinking afternoon tea, so he said.

Xiang Huaqiang said with a smile: "Brother Su is busy with his career all day long, and he doesn't care much about drinking afternoon tea. In case you didn't know that afternoon tea at The Peninsula is a must-have on Hong Kong Island, and there may be a lot of celebrities and rich people lining up in the back while we chat casually. Otherwise, I'll be more desperate to order for my brother. ”

Su Chenyu didn't care, so he didn't care, and he didn't think it was a face-saving thing. He nodded and accepted Xiang Huaqiang's kindness, and then turned his focus to Shao Yifu.

Treating this kind of respectable senior, Su Chenyu showed a good cultivation, he did not rush to propose the acquisition, but first talked about some irrelevant words to warm up the scene. Su Chenyu saw that things were almost done, and Shao Yifu didn't seem to talk much, and Xiang Huaqiang even looked like he was selling potatoes without a scale - he didn't like to ignore them.

So Su Chenyu began to go straight to the point......
