――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

After returning to Hong Kong, Wei Xiong attended the rolling ceremony of the first Jaguar XF produced in Hong Kong non-stop, and he was a guest.

In addition, many artists under Wei's umbrella and some business tycoons also came.

For example, Fok Yingdong, Li Ka-shing, etc.

This is the first car in history to be produced in Hong Kong, and it means more than just the car itself.

It marks a historic step in the transformation of Hong Kong's industry to become technology-intensive.

It is worth mentioning that due to the significant reduction in labor costs, the average cost of Jaguar XF production in Hong Kong is 7% lower than that in the UK.

Don't look at just 7%, when that number is multiplied by 100,000, 1 million, it's going to be a huge number.

And that's only temporary.

At present, the production line in Hong Kong only produces one type of car, the Jaguar XF, and a large part of the parts used are flown in from Europe.

This increases costs.

However, some of these parts can be replaced by parts made in other countries, such as radios made in Japan.

Or water tanks produced in Malaysia and so on.

The components produced in these countries are cheaper than similar products produced in European countries, and some are almost twice as cheap.

In the future, Hong Kong's production line will complete the transformation of a parts supplier.

Costs will undoubtedly come down again.

In addition to the official launch of the first Jaguar XF, the gas turbine production line of General Electric in the Galaxy Industrial Zone 2 has also started.

The development of a new gas turbine was officially relocated from the UK last month.

Compared with the automobile production line, Weixiong attaches more importance to the development project and production line of gas turbines, because it contains real high technology.

It is also the basis for the progress of human industry.

However, when the first product rolled off the assembly line, Wei Xiong did not plan to do any ceremony.

In order to put part of the production plan of the new gas turbine project CIH08-D1 and CIH07 series in Hong Kong, Mak Junyang took great pains.

After all, both projects are sensitive, although both are civilian.

But if it's too ostentatious, it's not good to provoke some ill-intentioned media hype, so sometimes you should keep a low profile.

As for the Dassault-Galaxy Hong Kong branch in District 3, construction is also in full swing.

It should be noted that Area 3 contains the former Area 3 and Area 4 and is rectangular in shape, with the longer side connected to Area 1 and Area 2.

On the other side, it is connected to District 4, and District 4 is past Area 5.

Among them, Area 4 and Area 5 are both industrial sites that Wei Xiong applied to the British government again at the beginning of the year, and the area is much larger than the previous one.

It's almost twice the size.

The fact that the British government in Hong Kong can grant him such a large piece of land shows his influence, but Wilson also said that this is already the limit of the government.

In other words, if there is not enough land in the future, then the British government in Hong Kong will not be able to do anything.

In addition, there is a concrete road with a width of more than 60 meters between Area 3 and Area 4 that bypasses Area 2 and connects with a huge runway by the sea.

With a width of 150 meters and a length of 3,000 meters, this huge runway is an airstrip.

The runway is still under construction.

In other words, because the British government in Hong Kong granted Galaxy Aerospace far from enough land for the construction of the airstrip, not even half of the land.

As a last resort, Galaxy Aerospace could only apply to the British government in Hong Kong for land reclamation.

This not only increased a large amount of investment, but also seriously delayed the construction period. So far, the runway has only been compacted with rollers.

It will take about half a year to complete the project.

Straight to the point.

The ceremony was simple but lively, and by the time it was almost six o'clock, all the guests and Jaguar's top management moved to The Peninsula.

It was also a Western-style dinner there.

The hotel was already ready, and when the guests arrived, the dinner began, although today Wei Xiong had been as low-key as possible.

But no matter where you stand, it's so dazzling.

However, most of the guests who came today were acquaintances, and it was not like other events where so many unknown people came forward to talk to them.

After dealing with a few people, Wei Xiong was trying to find a place to sit when Zhou Nan, the Hong Kong branch chief of the Xinhua News Agency, walked in front of him.

"Hehe, Mr. Wei, congratulations. ”

Although Hong Kong is still under Hong Kong rule, it is no longer just a British colony, and will return to Chinese mainland in a few years.

In this case,

As the de facto top official of China in Hong Kong, Zhou Nan attended today's offline ceremony, and there is nothing to question in terms of reason.

The British government in Hong Kong could not find fault with it.

"I don't think it's just a personal event for me, it's also a great event for Hong Kong, and President Zhou thinks I'm right, right?"

"Of course, I couldn't agree more. ”

Zhou Nan seems to be in a good mood, as Wei Xiong said, the launch of Jaguar XF is a great joy for the whole of Hong Kong.

The happy event in Hong Kong is the happy event of the Central Government.

Hong Kong will return to China in a few years, and the central government will of course like to receive a prosperous and sustainable Hong Kong when the time comes.

Therefore, the central government, which is beneficial to Hong Kong's economy, is happy to see it come to fruition.

"Mr. Wai has good intentions for the smooth transformation of Hong Kong's industry, and I believe that I am grateful for all this. ”

"President Zhou said seriously, I just did what I could. ”

Wei Xiong smiled, and then gestured to the seat not far away, and Zhou Nan also made a gesture of please, and the two walked over.

After sitting down,

Zhou Nan said with a smile: "In addition to participating in the off-line ceremony of the first Jaguar car today, there are two other things I want to discuss with Mr. Wei. ”

"Speak. ”

"The first is that I was entrusted by the Ministry of Industry to discuss a cooperation with Mr. Wei. ”

Wei Xiong did not speak, but showed a listening look. Seeing this, Zhou Nan continued: "The Ministry of Industry is very interested in Jaguar Motors. ”

"Intention to introduce it to the mainland. ”

"Oh, I don't know how the Ministry of Industry plans to cooperate?" Wei Xiong's eyes lit up, this is a great thing for Jaguar Motors.

"At present, the Ministry of Industry intends to establish a joint venture between Jaguar Motors and FAW Group. ”

"However, the Ministry of Industry means that it hopes that Jaguar will transfer some of its technology. In return, Jaguar will be included in the government car option. ”

There are tens of millions of civil servants in China, and there are also many government departments at all levels.

If the Chinese government can choose Jaguar as the government's main official car, it will be a huge market, and there will be an advertising effect.

However, the two sedans launched by the Jaguar brand are both high-end and high-end.

This kind of high-end car obviously does not conform to the basic national conditions of Chinese mainland today, if it is really decided to establish a joint venture with FAW Group.

You have to launch another mid-range model.

As for the low-end models, Wei Xiong does not consider them at all, at least not for now, because this will only reduce the overall value of the Jaguar brand.

In addition, Jaguar Group has to acquire another low-end brand.

The mid-range models of the Jaguar brand can meet the demand of the Chinese government for official cars, but Chinese in the 90s still rarely can afford mid-range cars.

If you want to occupy this huge market of more than 1 billion people, Jaguar alone is obviously not enough.

You have to launch a low-end brand.

"I agree in principle, we'll talk about the details later, what about the other one?"

As if he was worried about being heard, Zhou Nan deliberately lowered his voice: "The second thing is what Deng Lao meant, he hopes that you can go to the mainland more." ”

"I'm thinking about it too, but I've been getting a little bit done lately, so I'm done with it. ”

Wei Xiong smiled apologetically.

"I understand that. "Wei Xiong has so many industries, and there are one or twenty documents to be signed every day, of course Zhou Nan can understand.

And he's just a messenger.

After passing the words and chatting a few more words, Zhou Nan left, and Wei Xiong went to get some food, he hadn't eaten at night, and his stomach was hungry.

"There's no one sitting here. ”

Wei Xiong looked up, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face, standing in front of him, the woman with the plate in her hand was none other than Gong Li.

"Nobody, please be seated. ”

"Thank you. Gong Li smiled slightly, and sat down in the position that Zhou Nan had done before, with some meals in the plate in her hand.

"What does Miss Gong think of the atmosphere of the company, and is she still used to it?"

"It's good, everyone is very professional, and they do their own thing, and they are very efficient, which is much better than my previous workplace. ”

At the Hong Kong International Film Festival last year, Wei Xiong invited Gong Li to join Wei.

But Gong Li did not agree.

Instead, he returned to the mainland to shoot "A Generation of Demon Queens" directed by Li Hanxiang, which tells the story of the Empress Dowager Cixi, a famous figure in the late Qing Dynasty.

As far as the literary and artistic nature is concerned, it's okay.

But after it was released in Hong Kong, it was almost untouched, and it was released within a week of release, and at the same time, the film's reputation in the mainland was not good.

This gave Gong Li a big blow.

You must know that she has taken over two films since her debut, one of which shines on the international stage, and the other that she has gained fame and fortune, and now she suddenly encountered Waterloo.

The mood can be imagined.

After thinking about it for a few days, she finally decided to go to Hong Kong, where she thought the city's developed film industry would give her more opportunities.

So a month ago, Gong Li officially became a member of Wei's.

During this time, the company did not arrange other work except for some good notices for her, and she was basically still in the adaptation stage.

"It's good to get used to it. ”

Since she had only met Wei Xiong once and was not familiar with her, Gong Li didn't know what to talk about for a while, so she hesitated and simply went straight to the point.

"I heard that Tianheng is selecting guests for the third season of "Sister Over Flowers"?"

"Is there such a thing, Miss Gong is also interested?" Wei Xiong looked up and glanced at Gong Li with a smile, not surprised in his heart.

In his memory, Gong Li was originally a woman with an independent personality and the courage to pursue what she wanted.

Otherwise, it would not have been possible to make such a big name in the world.

Of course, there must have been a lot of effort and a lot of cost in the process, after all, this is the lunch that the world has not eaten in vain.

"I think I'm not the only artist in the company who is interested. ”

Gong Li smiled slightly, not at all embarrassed or embarrassed like some female artists, but directly and generously admitted it.

"I'll say hello to Xu Xiaoming tomorrow. ”

Wei Xiong didn't hesitate too much, and quickly agreed.

Although it has been produced for two seasons and its popularity has decreased, "Sister Over Flowers" is still one of Tianheng Film and Television's ace reality shows.

What's more, the second season of "Sister Over Flowers" went out of Hong Kong.

Both Taiwan China Television and Malaysian TV have purchased the broadcast rights of the second season, and both have achieved very good ratings.

At present, Tianheng is preparing for the third season, and Taiwan's China Television and Malaysian TV have confirmed - to buy.

There are also two other TV stations in negotiations.

There's no star like a well-known show with a huge viewership like this, so the competition for the third season is fierce.

But the guests of the third season will only replace Li Jiaxin.

Of course, this was mentioned by Li Jiaxin herself, Li Jiaxin wanted to participate mainly out of curiosity, but now she has recorded a season and tasted fresh.

Curiosity was satisfied.

In other words, there will be at least one or two dozen actresses competing for this opportunity, and if there is no accident, Gong Li will definitely have no chance.

Although Gong Li's fame is not small.

But after all, she just came to Hong Kong and has no backstage.

Like this, the threshold is low, as long as she is good-looking, she doesn't need acting skills, but she can't have the opportunity to have a big harvest.

"Really?"

Wei Xiong agreed so easily, but it made Gong Li a little stunned, she originally thought that Wei Xiong would at most mean - I will consider it.

"Am I lying? ”

"Thank you, Mr. Wei. Gong Li smiled happily, and then said with a little hesitation: "When are you free?" ”

"Of course, the beauty has time for dinner, just tomorrow night, I will book a place to contact you." ”

"Yes. ”

Gong Li's expression had a hint of strangeness, and she suddenly regretted inviting Wei Xiong to dinner, but she had done her such a big favor.

If she didn't say it, she wouldn't seem to be able to say it.

"I recently wrote a script, which is an international blockbuster, the male protagonist is preliminarily set to be Cheng Long, and the female protagonist I think you are quite suitable. ”

"We'll talk about it again tomorrow. ”

Hearing this, Gong Li's eyes suddenly lit up, and the so-called international blockbusters of other film companies may just be released in Asia.

But Webster's international blockbuster is a real international blockbuster.

It will be released in Europe and the United States.

And so far, there are no examples of failed international blockbusters produced by Webster Films, and each one has generated a very good box office.

Zhong Chuhong, Wang Guxian, Li Lianjie and Cheng Long and others also took advantage of this to become internationally popular.

Didn't she come to Hong Kong for such an opportunity?

But the uneasiness in my heart was even greater. When she joined Weishi, the contract did not require Weishi to give her how many resources she would give every year.

In that case, why did Wei Xiong choose her as the heroine?

Is it just because she's suitable?

And it seems that the big boss Wei Xiong doesn't need to talk to her about the script personally, right?

"Then I'll wait for Mr. Wei's call tomorrow. ”

Gong Li smiled slightly, then got up and walked away. Wei Xiong glanced at the other party's back, and the writhing fat-buttocks were indeed quite attractive.

The corners of his mouth couldn't help but slightly hook up a shallow arc.

Such a royal sister-type beauty, he really forgot about it before, but now that Gong Li sent it to the door herself, he really has no reason to let it go.

He's a standard carnivore.

As for Gong Li, she is a smart woman, and Wei Xiong believes that she should know that if she wants to reap the rewards, she must first have a reason to pay.

And in Wei Xiong's memory, Gong Li has filmed a lot of bed-scenes.

……

"What's the matter, why do you have to come here in person today? ”

In a very ordinary, even a little dilapidated café, Yeltsin, who wore glasses as a disguise, said with a frown.

In front of him sat a middle-aged man with a very ordinary face.

This man's name was Pavlov (see chapter 450), and he was a Yugoslav merchant who was a wholesaler of daily necessities in the Soviet Union, and was relatively wealthy.

Half a year ago, Yeltsin met Pavlov at the event of one of his supporters.

After that, Pavlov took the initiative to find him and provide him with funds, and at this stage, which is the most intense stage of the political-political struggle,

It is also the stage where funding is most needed.

So he just sent someone to investigate Pavlov's identity a little and accepted the funds, but he soon discovered something out of the ordinary.

Pavlov provided him with a total of $5 million in funding on three occasions.

That's not a small amount.

At least Pavlov certainly can't take it out, which means that there is someone behind Pavlov, and as for who?

"I know that Mr. Yeltsin is currently short of funds, and here is 5 million dollars. ”

Pavlov smiled slightly, took out a check from his briefcase, put it on the table, and gently pushed it in front of Yeltsin.

Yeltsin glanced at the check, last time it was 2 million, this time it was 5 million, it is really a big deal.

But he didn't accept it directly, but said in a deep voice: "If you don't identify yourself again, I think you should take this check back." ”

While money is important, security is even more important.

"Actually, that's why I insisted on letting Mr. Yeltsin come today. ”

Pavlov lowered his head and stirred the coffee: "I don't know who the real owner is, but my boss asked me to pass on a message to you." ”

"What?"

"It will only take three or four years for Mr. Yeltsin to know the true identity of the financier, and then if Mr. Yeltsin takes control of the state. ”

"Please also take no blame for what has already happened. ”

Yeltsin frowned: "That's it?"

"That's right, that's all. Pavlov shrugged his shoulders and smiled: "So Mr. Yeltsin can accept the check with confidence." ”

……

Five minutes later, Yeltsin left the café with a check, and Pavlov walked to the side bookshelf and pulled out a thick dictionary.

When I opened the dictionary, it was empty, there were no pages at all, but a small video camera was hidden.

……

One hour later, in a movie theater, Pavlov handed a cassette tape to a man in a hat, who walked out of the theater.

In an alley next to the theater, the man takes off his hat and changes into a pair of gold-rimmed glasses.

It was Cherytsov.
