As Wei Xiong expected, in the newspaper the next day, in addition to the blockbuster news that Golden Harvest Cinema Line joined Wei's to publish appeared on the entertainment headlines of major newspapers, and even the front page headlines, headlines such as 'Wei Xiong recognizes his love for Wang Guxian' also appeared in a conspicuous position.
In fact, what is the relationship between Wang Guxian and Wei Xiong, people all over the world know it, in the past two years when the scandal was spread, the two of them would cover it up more or less at first, and the paparazzi at most only took some photos of the two eating together, or Wei Xiong entering and leaving Wang Guxian's villa.
Later, I didn't care whether it would be secretly photographed at all, and the paparazzi took photos of Wei Xiong and Wang Guxian kissing passionately several times. Of course, there are a lot of similar photos taken by the paparazzi, but the male protagonist has not changed, but the female protagonist has been replaced by another woman.
Therefore, the so-called 'Wei Xiong's recognition of love for Wang Guxian' is just a formality, and for Hong Kong citizens, it is to increase some daily after-dinner conversations, just look at it, no one will care too much, but for Wei Xiong's women, this is not the case at all.
It's all Wei Xiong's rumored girlfriend, why can you Wang Guxian be right, you can be above board, we deserve to hide in a dark corner?
His response was that the ban would be lifted, and in the future, whenever a reporter asks them about it, whoever wants to admit it will admit it, and there will be no need to be as stubborn as before. Of course, his women were happy with his response, but he couldn't be happy himself.
Because there is one of the most vinegar around him. Anyway, when Wei Xiong and He Chaoqiong were having breakfast, the Filipino maid came in with a newspaper, out of habit, He Chaoqiong took a newspaper and opened it, reading it while eating, chatting with Wei Xiong, and it didn't take long for her to be unable to eat.
Then I saw Wei Xiong's electric huΓ and electric huΓ connected, and my heart was even more depressed, thinking that she was the daughter of the He family, and it was just a matter of inheriting a man's split, but she was not as good as a star. Seeing this, Wei Xiong was depressed and had no choice but to use his three-inch incorruptible tongue again.
"The reason why I admit to the relationship with Xiaoxian is because a reporter asked at the time, if it was you who asked at the time, I would have admitted it. β
"What do you think is going on? I really plan to marry a few women like my daddy did, and you're even more than my daddy, at least he only has three women on the surface. But what about you, do the math yourself, how many calls have you received since you eat?"
At this time, Wei Xiong's brows couldn't help frowning, He Chaoqiong's way of yelling made him a little disgusted, hugged He Chaoqiong's hand, and unconsciously relaxed a little. After a while, He Chaoqiong saw that Wei Xiong didn't speak, looked up, and the anger in his heart suddenly stopped.
"Why, people are also a normal woman, when this kind of thing happens, people can't even complain, they know how to put on a face to show others. β
"Okay, why not, then have you complained enough now?" Wei Xiong smiled helplessly, and sat back in his chair with He Chaoqiong in his arms.
"Not yet, you just murdered someone's family, and the crime is added to the first degree. I hate it, don't touch it, people still hurt it. After more than a year of dating, He Chaoqiong had already been tamed by Wei Xiong, otherwise with her strong woman's character, how could she see her man chopping so many legs.
The tantrum just now was completely due to her own personality, but it was like a mouse seeing a cat, when she saw Wei Xiong frowning, it seemed that she was angry, how dare she lose her temper again, and sat on Wei Xiong obediently, and instantly changed from a fierce tigress to a cute kitten.
"Don't touch it, people are serious with you, what are you going to do, it's not more than ten years ago, Hong Kong law only recognizes monogamy, anyway, I'm too lazy to fix you, and I must be big in the future, what about the rest?
Of course Wei Xiong has no opinion on He Chaoqiong's saying that he wants to be bigger, with the powerful position of the He family, if he dares to let He Chaoqiong be small, He Hongsen has to be anxious with him, as for other women? In fact, he already has some ideas in his heart, but he doesn't want to say it now.
"It's not easy for your dad to agree to our relationship, how dare I let you be a little again. As for the rest, we'll talk about that later. β
β¦β¦
Wei Xiong spent two days in Macau, mainly dealing with the acquisition of shares in the hands of the Portuguese and Macau governments. According to the original agreement, the Portuguese and Macao governments will reduce their stake in Phoenix TV from 51% to 30% by the end of this year, and the deadline is now approaching.
The stake fell from 51% to 30%, and the Portuguese and Macau governments said they respected the agreement. But the price is quite different between the two sides. Nowadays, Phoenix Satellite TV cannot be compared with TVB in terms of overall scale, but the difference is only in signal coverage, that is, the basic viewing group.
In the area where the signals of the two sides overlap, in fact, after more than a year of development, Phoenix Satellite TV's ratings have comprehensively surpassed TVB, and TVB is only supported by old word-of-mouth and old audiences, which can be seen from the past year, TVB's stock price has continued to fall.
In other words, as long as Phoenix Satellite TV continues to expand its signal coverage, it is not a problem to completely surpass TVB. It is precisely because of this that the Portuguese and Macao governments sold 21% of the shares, asking for 170 million yuan, knowing that just a year ago, Wei Xiong and the He family jointly acquired 49% of the shares for only 24 million Hong Kong dollars. Now less than half of the original shares, but the price is more than 7 times the original price.
Faced with this kind of situation where the lion opened his mouth, of course Wei Xiong would not agree, he had a lot of money, but that was also earned by him taking risks.
Moreover, Phoenix Satellite TV can have the current situation, at least half of it is because of him, the Portuguese and Macao governments are completely sitting back and enjoying the success, what reason is there to ask for such a high price? After some bargaining, the price was reduced to 140 million, and Wei Xiong could barely accept this price.
During the negotiations between the two sides, in fact, there were many people who wanted to buy the 21% stake sold by the Portuguese and Macao governments, and the bids were not low. However, the original agreement between the two parties clearly stipulated that Wei Xiong and Ho Hongsen had a right of first refusal to purchase the shares, and the right of first refusal was mandatory.
That is to say, only Wei Xiong and Ho Hongsen put qì to buy shares, or Wei Xiong and Ho Hongsen's bid is much lower than the market price, and does not show enough sincerity to buy, the Portuguese and Macao governments can sell the shares to others, which is a bit of an overlord clause, but it is precisely because of this agreement,
Wei Xiong will vigorously develop Phoenix Satellite TV with only 29% of the shares, otherwise he will work hard, wouldn't he be making a wedding dress for others.
After the completion of the acquisition, the shareholding of the Portuguese and Macao governments fell to 30%, Wei Xiong is the most popular shareholder of the TV station, holding 40% of the shares, and He Jia holds 30% of the shares.
So far, in a sense, Wei Xiong has completed the effective holding of Phoenix Satellite TV. The remaining 30% stake in the hands of the Portuguese and Macao governments will also be reduced to 10% in the next three years, according to the agreement. At that time, Wei Xiong will truly take control of Phoenix Satellite TV.
However, at that time, the price that Wei Xiong and the He family need to pay will probably be several times, or even dozens of times that of now.
There were not many media reports on this equity change, and Phoenix Satellite TV did not hold a press conference. After signing the agreement, Wei Xiong returned to Hong Kong. After dinner the day before yesterday, he personally met with the British Secretary of State for Business, Allen?? Alexander made a phone call.
Consultations were held on his visit to the UK for business cooperation. Of course, they are not negotiating specifically, but to determine the project of cooperation between the two sides, and the specific negotiation work will be carried out by the British Department of Commerce and Mergysler Investment. After the negotiations are completed, he will depart for a visit to the United Kingdom.
Judging from Gu Guofu's feedback today, the negotiations are much smoother than he thought, so the date of his visit to the United Kingdom has basically been determined, and then he will go to Italy and the United States, which will take more than a week, so he needs to arrange some things first.
"Boss, this is an invitation from Christie's, and their staff says that there is the century-old ginseng you need at the auction tonight. β
Wei Xiong was dealing with Wen JiΓ n when Ouyang Yalan came in and put an invitation on his desk. Wei Xiong's eyes lit up immediately, it had been so long, and he had no hope of finding a century-old ginseng in Hong Kong, and planned to go to the northeast of the mainland again when he had time in the future.
Unexpectedly, there was news today, and then Ouyang Yalan said: "In addition, there is a rough diamond weighing about 738 carats at tonight's auction. According to their staff, it looks like the rough was dug up from South Africa just a few months ago. β
β¦β¦
"It's not appropriate for me to appear like this with you, right?" On the way to Christie's, Chen Hong looked at Wei Xiong and said with some uneasiness.
"It's not appropriate. Wei Xiong held Chen Hong's hand: "You look at me, now you sue me, do you like me?" β
When Chen Hong saw Wei Xiong's hot eyes, a trace of crimson immediately appeared on his face, and he hurriedly lowered his head: "I, I don't know." β
"You don't know if it's okay, anyway, I know I like you, and ......" As he spoke, Wei Xiong suddenly grabbed Chen Hong's waist and lowered his head to kiss it. Chen Hong only struggled slightly, then closed her eyes shyly, and then responded with a little jerky.
It seems that this is not the first time the two have kissed. In fact, under Wei Xiong's slight pickling methods and gentle offensives, even though Chen Hong has a more conservative personality, when the two went on their fourth date, he still let Wei Xiong succeed.
After half a minute, Wei Xiong separated from Chen Hong, looking at Chen Hong's delicate face, he said slightly: "You said that we are all like this, are we considered boyfriend and girlfriend?
"But ......"
"Nothing. Wei Xiong interrupted Chen Hong's words: "This world is actually very simple, you just need to follow your heart." β
Chen Hong sighed secretly, she knew that Wei Xiong had a heart and had a lot of rumored girlfriends, but she still couldn't control herself, and let herself fall deeper and deeper, like falling into a quagmire. Until now, she was reluctant to let her cut off her relationship with Wei Xiong.
He is constantly confused about the future, and at the same time he is also disgusted with Wei Xiong's flowering, and he is also worried about his family's opposition. It can be described as a dilemma.
"Oh yes, you probably haven't traveled abroad yet, I'm going on a business trip to England in a few days, why don't you come with me?"
"No, "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance" is now in the promotion period, I am the heroine, and it is a bit bad if I am not there. Chen Hong couldn't refuse, as a girl from the mainland who had never had a boyfriend, she was naturally very sensitive to traveling alone with men.
"What's so bad, there is no way to promote the movie without you?" Wei Xiong hugged Chen Hong's waist, lowered his head and kissed lightly on that delicate fragrant lips again, and then said softly: "Don't you want to be alone with me without outsiders to disturb you?"
"No......"
"Okay, that's it, I'll help you with the formalities by the way. Wei Xiong once again made a domineering decision for Chen Hong. After signing a contract with Wei, the company helped Chen Hong apply for permanent residency in Hong Kong for the sake of Fang BiΓ n, so she wanted to travel abroad very well.
A few minutes passed.
The car was parked outside the headquarters of Christie's auction house in Hong Kong, and there were naturally a lot of paparazzi in a place like this where celebrities gathered, and Wei Xiong and Chen Hong attracted everyone's attention as soon as they got out of the car. Among them are the paparazzi and the Hong Kong upper-class celebrities and wealthy people who participated in tonight's auction.
"Wow, it has long been rumored that Wei Xiong hooked up with Chen Hong again, I didn't expect to make such a high-profile appearance together tonight, and Chen Hong is really beautiful. β
"It's beautiful, and her temperament is very similar to Zhou Huimin, they are all pure, but it's a pity that such a superb woman was captured by Wei Xiong again. β
"I'm surprised, what kind of charm does Wei Xiong have, he can make those beautiful stars dizzy one by one, and he doesn't even care about how many legs he splits. Have you noticed one thing, those female celebrities who have had scandals with Wei Xiong have been loosening their mouths in the past two days. β
"I found out earlier, this is not surprising, Wang Guxian was straightened, and the others were of course unbalanced in their hearts, and they were anxious to admit that Guan XΓ¬ with Wei Xiong was a normal reaction. However, there should be prior consent from Wei Xiong. Alas, it's really the same person's fate, and it's useless to be jealous. β
"When you have trillions of Hong Kong dollars in assets, you won't ask that. β
"Do you think everyone is as superficial as you, when Zhou Huimin, Wang Guxian and Wei Xiong spread the scandal, Wei Xiong was still a newcomer, even if the Huan Ya and Wei movies were already good at that time, but they were far worse than now, didn't they still endure Wei Xiong's splitting?"
"Besides, when He Chaoqiong had an affair with Wei Xiong, the He family's assets were only a lot more than Wei Xiong's, but He Chaoqiong didn't say anything?"
"So they will be obsessed with Wei Xiong, not because Wei Xiong is rich, at least not all. β
"What's the reason for that?"
"If I knew that I still needed to run the news every day like now? But women, there are nothing more than two possibilities, psychological and physical, it may be that Wei Xiong is really gentle and considerate, so that women are reluctant to let go, or it may be that Wei Xiong's kung fu in bed is really powerful. β
"Cut, it's been reported in these newspapers for a long time, and you still need to say it. β
β¦β¦
Of course, Wei Xiong didn't know that the paparazzi were taking pictures and talking to him a lot, and after saying hello to a few people he knew, he walked into the auction house.
Then led by the staff to the auction hall.
"I knew you kid was coming, too. β
Wei Xiong turned his head to see who else could it be if it wasn't Huo Zhenting, and couldn't help laughing: "How do you know that I will definitely come?"
Huo Zhenting smiled slightly.
"Isn't there a rough diamond of more than 700 carats today? β
"That's not my main goal. β
"What's that?"
"My old man is researching a prescription and needs a strain of old-aged ginseng?" Wei Xiong did not hide it, and directly stated his purpose.
"You're also for that 100-year-old ginseng?"
"You too?" Wei Xiong looked at Huo Zhenting in surprise.
"The old man is old, so buy a rare thing like a hundred-year-old ginseng and keep it at home in case of emergency, but since you want it, forget it. β
Wei Xiong smiled and did not refuse Huo Zhenting's kindness.
Then he pointed to Chen Hongjie and said, "This is Miss Chen Hong, Honghong, this is the eldest son of the Huo family, Huo Zhenting." β
"Hello. β
"Hello. β
Chen Hong is not famous in Hong Kong now, and Huo Zhenting doesn't know him, but as soon as she appeared with Wei Xiong, Huo Zhenting can guess what's going on.
"Hehe, hygiene, long time no see. β
"It's been a while since I've seen him, and Old Li still looks so energetic. At this time, Li Ka-shing walked in under the leadership of the staff.
One old and one young, a slight xiΓ o handshake.
In the eyes of outsiders, there is no sense of disobedience.
"Old, how can you compare to you young people, come, let me introduce you to shΓ o, this is the dog Li Zeju, who is now working as a project manager in the Yangtze River. β
Li Ka-shing introduced the young people around him.
"Hello, Mr. Li. β
"Mr. Wei can just call me Zeju, for Mr. Wei, I have admired the name for a long time. β
"Don't dare to be. β
"You young people have more common topics and interests, and you can get together often when you have time in the future. Li Ka-shing said with a smile.
β¦β¦
Since tonight's auction is a large-scale auction, in addition to jewelry, there are also many antiques such as paintings, calligraphy, and porcelain.
So many of the older generation of wealthy people in Hong Kong have come.
Including Shaw Yifu.
Wei Xiong's seat was arranged in the first row, and it was next to Shao Yifu.
"You see what you want, and you'll tell me later. β
Wei Xiong picked up the book of tonight's lot from the table in front of him and handed it to Chen Hong, after Chen Hong took it, he didn't open it immediately, but glanced at Wei Xiong.
Seeing Wei Xiong's slightly affirmative expression, he nodded.
She is not a girl who loves vanity, but if her boyfriend wants to buy something for her, she will not refuse, not to mention that her boyfriend is so rich.
