Wei Xiong will continue to take in Ishihara Tomoko, not because Ishihara Tomoko is beautiful, but because of hypnosis, there are many people in the world who study psychology, but there are very few people who can hypnotize, because hypnotism is an advanced application of psychology, and it is not something that can be learned by rote.

You also need to have talent and enough understanding, so when he heard Yoshiko Fujita say that Tomoko Ishihara can do hypnosis, he moved his mind to completely subdue Tomoko Ishihara, and after some consideration, he finally made a decision. But how can you completely subdue Tomoko Ishihara?

So he deliberately called in front of Tomoko Ishihara to question Masahiko Mitsui, so that Tomoko Ishihara was forced into a corner and had no way out.

As for whether Tomoko Ishihara will be loyal to the Mitsui family, he is not worried, because he has asked Yoshiko Fujita that the Mitsui Foundation does not have psychotropic drugs similar to TX3. Moreover, according to Fujita Yoshiko, it is impossible to change an adult's mind within a year by hypnotism alone, because adults have already formed their own independent thoughts, and it takes far more time than minors to forcibly change by external forces, which is the main reason why the core members of spy agencies are generally cultivated from an early age.

However, he inevitably capsized in the gutter one day, and after Tomoko Ishihara promised to stay by his side, he let Tomoko Ishihara take TX3 again, and then asked Yoshiko Fujita to perform hypnosis again to determine whether Tomoko Ishihara was truly obedient. The results made him very satisfied.

Due to taking TX3 twice in a day, Tomoko Ishihara looks a little weak, after all, it was specially researched by the KGB of the Soviet Union to train spies, even if Fujita Yoshiko said that if she doesn't take it for a long time, there will be no side effects, but in fact, there are still side effects.

It's just not obvious, Wei Xiong actually knows this, for example, every time he wakes up, he will be slightly weak, but he also believes that Fujita Yoshiko will not be too exaggerated, as long as it is not taken for a long time, the side effects should not bring obvious and long-term danger to the body.

"Since you are truly obedient, you can live here in the future, and you will also serve as Ji Xiang's teacher, what you need to do, Fangzi will teach you. ”

"Yes, young master. Tomoko Ishihara regained her previous respectful attitude towards Wei Xiong, and this kind of face change speed can only be done by women.

"Fangzi, you contact Osipov, if it is convenient for him, invite him to come to Hong Kong, there are some things I want to talk to him personally. ”

"Yes, young master, I'll contact him tomorrow. Some time ago, Fujita Yoshiko had already hooked up with Osipov, and after getting 500,000 US dollars, Osipov readily promised to meet Fujita Yoshiko's requirements as much as possible under the condition of safety and security.

"Okay, it's not early, go and rest, Tomoko you were also tossed a lot tonight, you don't have to accompany me, get a good night's sleep." Yoshiko, you take Tomoko up to arrange the room first, and then come to the room to find me. After saying that, Wei Xiong turned around and planned to go upstairs.

"Young master, I can actually do it. Tomoko Ishihara said suddenly. Wei Xiong stopped, turned to look at Ishihara Tomoko with a charming face, then smiled, and stepped forward to hug Ishihara Tomoko: "Since you can, then come, let the young master take care of you." ”

……

The next morning, when Wei Xiong was reviewing the text, Ouyang Yalan knocked on the door and walked into the office: "Boss, Mr. Xerter Chris is here." ”

Shelt Chris Weixiong didn't react for a moment. was stunned, and then suddenly remembered that this Shelt Chris was not the senior accountant who was poached from the British Pricewaterhouse accounting firm with a high salary, according to the information he got from the headhunting company.

This Shelt Chris is the President of Pricewater's German branch and is a senior accountant with extensive experience.

"Let him in. ”

Ouyang Yalan went out for a while, and then walked in with a middle-aged white man, whose appearance was the same as the photo Wei Xiong had seen from the data.

Wei Xiong immediately got up to greet him, shook the other party's outstretched hand with a smile, and said, "Welcome from afar, Mr. Chris." ”

Shelt Chris also had a smile on his face that had already climbed a little wrinkled: "It's a pleasure to meet you, to be honest, I am full of curiosity about you, Mr. Wei, which is why I will not hesitate to resign after receiving the invitation from the headhunter." ”

"Hahaha. ”

Wei Xiong naturally knew why Shelt Chris said to be curious about him, and smiled and said, "You will have enough time to get to know me in the future." ”

The two sat down on the sofa, and said nothing politely, and after Ouyang Yalan just brought the coffee in and went out, Shelt Chris immediately said to the Westerners: "I don't know what Mr. Wei is going to do when he poached me?" ”

Since people are so direct, Wei Xiong didn't go around in circles.

"I set up a holding company, which currently includes Westsway Entertainment Group, Westway Investments and Westway Security, but this is only temporary, it will get bigger and bigger in the future, so I need a professional CFO to help me manage my money bag. ”

With the scale of the company under its name, for the better development of the company in the future.

He needs to establish a sound top-level management mechanism.

He personally serves as the chief executive officer of Webster Holdings, with three positions: chief financial officer, chief operating officer and chief enforcement officer.

The CFO is responsible for the financial audit, audit and business consulting of all the companies under its umbrella.

The Chief Operating Officer is responsible for the day-to-day operations of the company, assists the CEO, and is accountable to the CEO.

The Chief Enforcement Officer is responsible for the Company's and its employees' compliance with government regulations and internal policies.

At the same time, the legitimate interests of the company are safeguarded externally.

Zuo Xiangdong, the legal counsel of the former Weishi Entertainment Group, served as the legal counsel.

Zuo Xiangdong is a very interesting name, but he is a lawyer with more than 20 years of rich experience and a good reputation.

The point is that Wei Xiong has a good sense of him.

That's why he was put in this very important position.

Under the three chief officers, there are a number of departments to deal with various corresponding affairs, and the gradual completion of each department has been basically completed.

Merriam-Webster?

Among the three companies Wei Xiong said, Wei's investment is undoubtedly the most famous, because in the past half a month, Wei's investment has attacked everywhere.

Acquired shares of many world-class companies.

Some people conservatively estimate that there should be as many as 100 companies involved, and a large number of them are Fortune 500 companies.

Assets under management exceed $40 billion.

And this is only temporary, as the stock markets of the United States and other countries around the world recover, its assets under management are bound to increase rapidly in a short period of time.

This made the reputation of Weishi Investment rise sharply in a short period of time.

It has become one of the largest and most famous investment companies in the world.

Of course, the Weststers Entertainment Group is also famous.

It can be called the hegemon of Hong Kong's entertainment industry, but the entertainment industry is not mainstream compared to the world economy, so Shelt Chris has less attention.

At this time, Xelter Chris was surprised.

He didn't expect Wei Xiong to give him such a high appointment, knowing that this is a super-large holding company with tens of billions of dollars in assets.

To be the CEO of such a company.

It was definitely a leap forward in his career

"This is an appointment that cannot be refused, thank you very much Mr. Wei for your trust, I swear by my faith, you will not regret your decision today. ”

Shelt Chris's solemnity pleased Wei Xiong.

"To tell you the truth, the headhunters have found me a lot of candidates all over the world according to my requirements, and many of them are better than you. ”

"Or maybe you have a higher position, but in the end I chose you. ”

"Your expertise and success stories are naturally important reasons, but more importantly is your professionalism and work ethic. ”

"In more than 20 years in the industry. ”

"There has not been a single accident in all the work you have been responsible for, and there has not been a single customer complaint from you and your team. ”

"This is absolutely unthinkable in the accounting profession, so I'm sure you'll be well qualified for this position,"

Speaking of his past accomplishments, Sheldt Chris has a proud smile on his face.

"Thank you very much for your affirmation and compliments. ”

Wei Xiong smiled back and continued: "If you have no opinion, I can ask my secretary to prepare the contract right away, and then you can start your work. ”

"Of course, I have no problem at all. ”

Shelt Chris looks full of energy.

While waiting for Ouyang Yalan to print the contract, he told Wei Xiong about his past work experience and how he planned to start his new job after signing the contract.

Half an hour later, Sheldt Chris signed his name.

Officially appointed as Chief Financial Officer of Wises Holdings.

That's when Shelt Chris said something: "Boss, Merriam-Webster has a large number of outstanding shares in world-class companies. ”

"There's a lot of money running around in the market. ”

"I think in order to make the money safer, the boss should buy a bank as the core of your business. ”

Hearing this, Wei Xiong couldn't help but laugh.

"You're right, I'm already doing this, I've already bought the shares of two Chinese shareholders of Standard Chartered Bank. ”

"When the qiē is ready, the final blow will be struck. ”

"It seems that Mr. Wei has made the right choice, and I think my first task now should be to form a team. I don't know where my office is?"

Webster Holdings was established more than a week ago.

However, since there were no spare floors in the Kester Building, Wei Xiong temporarily rented two floors in the office building next door to serve as office space for Weishi Holdings and Weishi Investment.

……

"Hmph, it's so deceitful. ”

Zou Wenhuai looked at the newspaper report on the box office of "Top Secret Mission" and was immediately furious.

was released two days earlier than "Police Story Sequel", but he waited for the box office of "Police Story Sequel" to be announced in the first week before it was announced.

This is clearly deliberate.

"Don't be angry, now that you are stronger than people, what's the use of you being angry?" He Guanchang sighed and comforted.

After a while, Zou Wenhuai suppressed his anger.

"You say, Wei Xiong has been like this twice in a row, what is it for?"

He Guanchang sighed and shook his head.

"I couldn't figure it out for a long time, but this morning I thought of a possibility. ”

"Tell me. ”

"In my opinion, Wei Xiong wants Golden Harvest Cinemas to join Wei's and unify the cinemas in Hong Kong, just like Golden Princess Cinemas and Debao Cinemas. ”

"Hmph, what a big appetite. ”

Zou Wenhuai's face instantly turned cold, the cinema line is like Jiahe's crutch, if the cinema line is lost, Jiahe may not even be able to walk.

Not to mention the conceited him.

How can you let yourself be subject to others.

"I can't think of anything else than that. Seeing that Zou Wenhuai's face was not good-looking, He Guanchang immediately diverted the topic:

"Okay, let's not talk about this for now, what do you think about what I told you last time?"

"What's the matter?"

Zou Wenhuai looked puzzled, he really didn't know what He Guanchang was talking about.

He Guanchang glanced at Zou Wenhuai helplessly, and said: "Regarding entering Hollywood again, now the box office of "Top Secret Mission" has come out. ”

"Prove that action scenes Wei Xiong is also good at it. ”

"Do you think we should work with Webster?"

Hearing this, Zou Wenhuai's brows suddenly furrowed.

It had always been his dream to break into Hollywood, for which he tried one after another a few years ago, lost a lot of money, and now the opportunity seems to have come.

But he hesitated.

It's not that he's going to give up on his dreams.

Instead, Wei Xiong's successive snipers on Jiahe have already made the two sides have a grudge, if he comes to the door again to ask for cooperation. ”

Where is his face gone?

People live with a face, trees live with a skin, if he can let go, why not have a grudge with Shao Yifu, which still can't be resolved.

"Even if we take the initiative to send out an invitation, I'm afraid Weishi will not agree. ”

"After all, there is no need for Webster to cooperate with others, and we can't come up with attractive enough conditions to convince Webster. ”

"There's one more thing you don't forget. ”

"In our plan, the actor of the film is Ah Long, but because of the last incident, Ah Long is still in the stage of being banned. ”

He Guanchang sighed:

"I'll talk about this later, before coming to your office, I just received a message that Wei's has been approved by the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television of the mainland. ”

"Up to 10 films can be released on the mainland every year. ”

"I don't think I need to say, you know what that means, there are a whole billion people in the mainland, you can imagine how big the market is. ”

"It is estimated that Weis's net profit will skyrocket next year. ”

"What are you talking about, it's useless for us to envy this kind of thing. Zou Wenhuai frowned slightly, and vaguely guessed He Guanchang's thoughts in his heart.

"Who said it was useless. ”

He Guanchang smiled and said, "I think that since Wei Xiong intends to unify the Hong Kong cinema chain, we might as well use this as a bargaining chip to negotiate conditions with Wei Xiong." ”

"First of all, the films that have been introduced to the mainland. ”

"We can ask Wei Xiong to give us a few shares, and the second is the matter of cooperation. As long as we don't ask too much, Wei Xiong should consider it. ”

Zou Wenhuai fell silent.

He Guanchang didn't speak, quietly waiting for Zou Wenhuai to make a decision.

After a long while, Zou Wenhuai spoke: "Actually, I've been thinking that what Wei Xiong can do, we may not be able to do it. ”

"We've failed before. ”

"But who knows if it will work out next time?"

He Guanchang knew that wrinkles were not so easy to compromise: "What you said is right, maybe we try again, and we may really succeed." ”

"But it's also possible to fail, and it's more likely to fail. ”

"If you think about how much money it cost to shoot "Cannonball Speed", I didn't even get back to the book in the end. If there is a more secure way, why take the risk. ”

"And the relationship with Webster and Paramount. ”

"If we were to work with Merriam-Webster on Paramount, we would get a lot more of the revenue than if we were to shoot it alone. ”

"Okay, I'll think about it again. ”

Hearing this, He Guanchang stood up: "I hope you will pay attention to it as soon as possible." ”

"The news that Wei's film will be introduced to the mainland should not be long before it spreads, and Pan Disheng and Lei Juekun may come to the door to get a piece of the pie. ”

"If we're late, we're going to have no part. ”

……

"Godfather, what do you mean by Mr. Zou?"

As soon as He Guanchang returned to his office, Cheng Long couldn't wait to ask.

"You need to think about it. ”

Hearing this, Cheng Long couldn't help but be disappointed, and after filming "Double Dragon Club", his work stopped.

Because of the blocking order issued by Wei Xiong, not to mention other film companies, even Golden Harvest, and because of the actor problem, there is no way to open a new play for him.

Even the announcements stopped.

This period of time can be said to be the most idle in his recent years. But this kind of leisure is not what he wants, especially seeing the success of "Top Secret Mission".

Zhou began to make a name for himself in Hollywood and on the international stage.

is even more anxious.

Therefore, he is most in favor of Golden Harvest using the cinema chain as a bargaining chip to cooperate with Wei, as long as the cooperation can be achieved, the ban on him will naturally be eliminated.

"Don't worry. ”

Wen Huai has worked hard for Jiahe for half his life, and now he suddenly asked him to merge Jiahe Cinema into Wei's, and he was definitely unwilling for a while. ”

"But this year, because of the strength of Webster's release. ”

"Not only your "Plan A Sequel" and "Police Story Sequel", but the box office of other films is generally quite far from expectations. ”

"If you don't find a way to change it, it's only going to get worse. ”

He Guanchang's tone was filled with deep helplessness.

With the growing strength of Wei's films, Golden Harvest, the only competitor of Wei's movies today, is getting more and more difficult.

Otherwise, he would not have offered to use the theater chain as a bargaining chip.

Despite this, it will make Golden Harvest subject to Wei's for a certain extent, but it can also make Golden Harvest revitalized.
