Deng Lao looked at the report of the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense, and nodded again and again: "Well, it seems that we have really gotten good things." ”

This report was sent to the State Council by the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense just in the morning.

The content is precisely an analysis of the batch of weapons smuggled from the Soviet Union, and between the lines there is appreciation and joy for this harvest.

You must know that it is not easy for China today to have direct access to the world's advanced military products.

What's more, this time I can dismantle things and study them slowly.

"It's really a good thing, listening to Director Tan Heng, the military experts who participated in the evaluation of these things were all so excited that they were going crazy."

Mr. Li had a smile on his face and seemed to be in a good mood.

"They've been holding it for too long." Deng Lao sighed lightly, in this ancient country, there has never been a shortage of people who are willing to give up everything for the country.

But many times it is just empty of blood, and cannot make a difference.

Because of its long-term hostility with the world's two major blocs and its weak foundation, China's military technology and theory have long been seriously out of touch with the world.

Many weapons are outdated when they first start being developed.

Although China is now in a honeymoon period with the West, the Chinese army has taken advantage of this opportunity to buy some good equipment from Western countries.

But these equipment are not the most advanced in the West, and it is impossible for them to sell the most advanced to China.

Even some of the equipment is castrated.

The pieces of equipment that were brought over from the Soviet Union this time are the most advanced in the Soviet Union, and they can even rank among the top of similar equipment in the world.

It is undoubtedly a rare opportunity for China's military industry.

"Let the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense organize manpower to conduct a good study of these things, and strive to thoroughly eat up other people's technology as soon as possible."

"I've already ordered this to go down, and the Ministry of Finance has also allocated the transfer."

Deng Lao nodded, and then changed his words: "Even this kind of equipment can be bought, it seems that the situation in the Soviet Union is much more complicated than we expected." ”

"I'm afraid it can't be described as complicated."

"In the past half month, Gorbachev has successively announced a number of very radical reform plans, such as the multi-party system and the non-party of the army."

"This will definitely make the economic contradictions spread to the political level."

At this time, Elder Deng sighed:

"I don't understand, judging from past experience, Gorbachev doesn't look like such an unwise person, why did he make such stupid moves one after another this time?"

"But it also gives us a chance."

"Let the Ministry of State Security strengthen its operations in the Soviet Union, and if there is a chance, develop more advanced equipment, and it is better to find a way to get technical information."

"I will also order the Intelligence Bureau of the General Staff to go down, and the two sides must work closely together."

This latter point is the reason why Deng Lao asked Mr. Li to come over today, there is a cheap and not a bastard, and he is talking about the current situation in the Soviet Union.

"It's a good opportunity to fish in troubled waters."

General Manager Li nodded, paused, and then said: "If this development continues, there may be even greater turmoil in the Soviet Union. ”

"Are we going to prepare the army, just in case?"

"It's important to pay attention to one point, but the action should not be too big, Lao Maozi is willing to do this and that, let them do it well, don't draw their attention to us."

"But we really need to raise the border to prevent refugees from pouring into our side."

China's border guards are divided into two parts: the border guards of the People's Liberation Army of China and the border guards of the Chinese People's Armed Police Force.

The border guards are established as an army and are subordinate to the provincial military districts.

The Armed Police Border Guard Unit is subordinate to the Border Guard Administration of the Ministry of Public Security, so border issues generally require cooperation between the military and the Ministry of Public Security.

"I'll let the Ministry of Public Security coordinate this."

"Speaking of the military, I do remember one thing." Mr. Li said with a smile.

"What's the matter?"

"I heard that Wei Xiong has a cousin who is currently serving in the army, and his position is a staff officer of the Air Force Staff, and he was promoted to the rank of major last year."

"Oh, and that?"

Deng Lao showed surprise on his face, and then smiled: "This time these things Weixiong doesn't need money, I always feel a little embarrassed in my heart." ”

"If his cousin is good, he can be promoted."

Since Wei Xiong's last visit to Beijing, Deng Lao has been thinking about how to get closer to Wei Xiong, but after so long, he still can't get the point.

And this so-called cousin may be the first good entry point.

……

"Hehehe, I didn't expect you to have a hand in writing novels." Jin Yong smiled and picked up the teapot and poured it over the empty teacup in front of Wei Xiong.

"When I'm bored, I just write and play." Wei Xiong smiled faintly.

"I don't like to hear what you say, you can have this level when you are bored and playing? Fortunately, I was born decades before you, otherwise it would be hard to say. ”

"You can't say that."

"Every era has its own cultural trends, and twenty or thirty years ago, romance novels like me, dressed in the garb of Xianxia, would not necessarily be popular."

"Xianxia?"

Jin Yong savored these two words, and looked up at Wei Xiong: "This is your classification of "Flower Thousand Bone"? ”

"That's right."

Wei Xiong smiled slightly: "Different from martial arts novels, Xianxia novels are more illusory??" Ethereal, the world it encompasses is much wider. ”

"It combines myths and folklore to create a completely illusory world."

"It contains fictional things such as immortals, gods, demons, demons, etc., and then relies on Taoist philosophy to make all fictions seem orderly."

Before "Flower Thousand Bone", there were actually Xianxia novels.

The most famous is "The Legend of the Swordsman of Shushan" by the owner of Huanzhu Mansion, but the name of these novels is not Xianxia novels, but mythological martial arts novels.

In other words, it is still classified as a martial arts novel.

The name Xianxia was completely created by Wei Xiong.

"It's very apt." Jin Yong nodded appreciatively and said, "I can't say that you will become a novelist who founded a sect." ”

"Hehehe, I don't dare to compare with your old man."

"Novels are just a hobby for me after all, and I don't usually have much time to write novels, so I'm very happy to be liked by readers."

"Don't talk about starting a sect."

Jin Yong smiled noncommittally: "I don't need to say much about the current results of "Flower Thousand Bone", so it is not up to you to decide whether to start a sect or not." ”

"I didn't say I was a master of martial arts novels."

Since the first day of serialization, "Flower Thousand Bone" has also opened the "brush newspaper" mode, and readers used to buy "Tiantian Daily" for various reasons.

But now most of it is for watching "Flower Thousand Bone".

How hot is it?

There are two numbers that can be clearly reflected.

Before the serialization of "Flower Thousand Bone", the daily sales of "Tian Tian Daily" were about 110,000 copies, ranking among the top four newspapers in Hong Kong.

Unless there is an exclusive fierce material, there will be little fluctuation in sales.

But since the serialization of "Flower Thousand Bone", sales have been rising, exceeding 200,000 copies a month ago, and 300,000 copies a few days ago.

It became the largest selling newspaper in Hong Kong.

This kind of growth model is the same as the original "Ming Pao", thanks to Jin Yong's pen, which broke through the current country of "Ming Pao".

In addition, many literary masters have also publicly expressed their evaluation of "Flower Thousand Bone".

For example, Jin Yong,

He once published a review in "Ming Pao", the core of which has four games: plain words, smooth descriptions, wonderful ideas, and touching love.

Compared with Jin Yong's martial arts novels, "Flower Thousand Bone" does not have too strong literary quality.

But it tells a good story.

It just so happens that the story is liked and accepted by the readers, and it is enough to have these, after all, not everyone can become a writer.

"That's exactly what you said." Wei Xiong took a sip of tea and smiled.

Jin Yong also picked up the teacup, and when he put the teacup back down, he suddenly jumped and said: "Are you interested in investing in "Ming Pao"? ”

Wei Xiong froze.

It was Jin Yong who asked him today, and he didn't think much about it, they had chatted with tea together a few times before, but he didn't expect Jin Yong to suddenly come to such a hand.

Of course, he is interested in "Ming Pao", and I believe that Jin Yong should also know it very well.

"You know, it's just that I'm curious, why did you suddenly change your attention?" Wei Xiong remembered the scene when the two met for the first time.

At that time, he expressed the idea of buying "Ming Pao", but was rejected by Jin Yong.

"Ming Pao is my decades-long work, and of course I can't just give it to others." Jin Yong smiled and said very directly.

As he said, "Ming Pao" is his work for decades.

Even if he wants to find a successor, he will definitely find someone he thinks is suitable, instead of selling it to whoever offers the highest price.

Since Wei Xiong revealed the idea of buying Ming Pao, he has been observing Wei Xiong.

There are both face-to-face observations.

also through the observation of the media, I feel that although Wei Xiong is a romantic person, he also has affection and righteousness, whether it is for women or friends.

The most important thing is that Wei Xiong's position is neither biased towards the West nor too much towards the mainland.

It is in line with the objective and neutral position of Ming Pao.

"I don't know how many shares Zha Lao plans to sell?" Wei Xiong went straight to the point, of course he wanted to take "Ming Pao" all at once, but this was obviously impossible.

The Ming Pao Group is not listed and has only two shareholders.

Jin Yong and Shen Baoxin.

The shareholding ratios of the two are 80% and 20% respectively, and Jin Yong has an absolute controlling stake.

"How about 30%?"

Jin Yong groaned for a moment and said the answer, it can be seen that he does not plan to retire completely at this stage, and Wei Xiong, the successor, is just a preparation.

"According to your wishes, tomorrow I will send someone to Ming Pao to discuss specific matters."

Wei Xiong nodded with a smile.

Now that the daily sales of "Tian Pao" have far exceeded that of "Ming Pao", it seems that there is no need to buy "Ming Pao".

However, this is not the case.

With its objective and neutral stance and realistic style, Ming Pao has always enjoyed great influence and credibility in Hong Kong society.

The readers are mainly high-end people such as intellectuals and business people.

The Daily Daily, on the other hand, is more entertaining.

The readership is predominantly young.

It can be said that the two newspapers have great differences in terms of the concept of board newspapers, the direction of attention, and the readership groups covered, and they cannot be confused.

Therefore, Wei Xiong is still very happy to be able to take a stake in "Ming Pao".

"Some time ago, that Japanese man named Kato came downstairs to your company to challenge you, and was beaten down by your bodyguard a few times."

After chatting about the shares, Jin Yong talked about Keiichi Kato.

He writes martial arts novels, and his interest in such events is no less than that of young people, but unfortunately TV Asahi did not broadcast the footage.

Otherwise, he can feast his eyes on it.

"Hehe, it's just a clown jumping off the beam, I think I will be invincible in the world if I learn a little taekwondo." Wei Xiong smiled slightly, with a faint disdain.

He disdains not only that Keiichi Kato, but also the Japanese.

The challenge of that day was reported by the Hong Kong media with considerable intensity, and later some media in Taiwan, Southeast Asia and other places also reported on it.

However, Japan, as one of the parties involved, did not seem to have such a thing.

Not to mention other media, TV Asahi, which was filming at the scene at the time, not only did not broadcast the video, but also did not even have a small headline.

One cannot but despise the narrow-mindedness of the Japanese nation.

"If it's you, what's the outbreak?"

In Jin Yong's cognition, the taekwondo black belt is a real master, and it is understandable that Wei Xiong, the bodyguard from the Flying Tigers, can win.

But if it is a change of Wei Xiong, it is difficult to say.

"I taught Yihang's kung fu, what does Zha Lao think?"

Hearing this, Jin Yong's eyes suddenly lit up, and then he smiled and said: "The ancients said that the big hidden in the city, it seems that your Wei family is really not simple." ”

"When is Ling Zun free, can you introduce me?"

"That's no problem, my father has admired you for a long time." Wei Xiong immediately agreed, which would be beneficial to him.

And he didn't talk nonsense either,

Among the few TV series that Wei Hongdao has watched, Jin Yong's martial arts dramas are included, and he highly admires Jin Yong for writing martial arts novels so wonderfully.

thinks that Jin Yong can create such a martial arts world with an ordinary person, which is no longer imaginatively rich and can be described.

It lies in its own profound cultivation of Chinese culture.

……

After drinking tea with Jin Yong, Wei Xiong returned to the company, and when the elevator rose to the eighth floor, it stopped, and a young man in his early 20s walked into the elevator.

"Mr. Wei." The young man hurriedly greeted him.

"Hmm."

Wei Xiong nodded faintly, then glanced at the young man, and said with a smile: "Your name is Li Shu, when did you join the Wei family?" ”

This nervous-looking young man is Li Shu.

Although the company has no plans to release an album for him, it has arranged vocal lessons for him, and he has to come to the company on time every day.

"Mr. Huiwei, it's been less than a month."

"There's no need to be so nervous." Wei Xiong smiled: "The image of young people is good, and they can sing songs, work hard, and there will be opportunities." ”

"Thank you, Mr. Wei."

Li Shu said excitedly.

Being able to get Wei Xiong's affirmation is undoubtedly very precious for a newcomer like him, and will a person of Wei Xiong's status just talk casually?

"Ding."

The elevator stopped on the 16th floor of the Weststers broker.

"I've arrived." Li Shu bowed slightly to Wei Xiong again and exited the elevator. That's right, I walked out of the elevator backwards.

"This Li Shu is quite polite."

Ouyang Yaqing, who was standing on the left side of Wei Xiong, opened her mouth to speak.

"That's good." Wei Xiong smiled slightly.

In the rookie singing contest in 96, he saw Li Shu on TV, but at that time, the scale of Media Asia Records was still very small.

couldn't train so many singers at the same time, so he only signed Zhou Huimin.

Also given up was Li Keqin.

But now it's different, as the largest record label in Hong Kong and even in Asia, Media Asia Records has world-class star-making capabilities.

After returning to the office, Wei Xiong called Luo Dayou and talked about Li Shu.

Although Lai Shu is considered the worst of the 'Four Heavenly Kings' in Hong Kong in the other world, this is only relative to the other three kings.

In Wei Xiong's view, there is still quite a lot of potential for cultivation.

"Li Shu? It seems that a new singer named Li Shu has been signed, what's wrong? Luo Dayou mentioned Li Shu to Wei Xiong a little inexplicable.

"Does he have an album plan now?"

"Not for the time being, what, are you optimistic about him?" Luo Dayou suddenly came to his senses, you must know that Wei Xiong rarely asks about Huanya now.

Writing a song for a certain singer is a thing of the past.

Of course, Luo Dayou wanted Wei Xiong to create more songs, but Wei Xiong had to be willing, so he sent him away directly if he didn't have time.

"I saw him participate in the rookie singing contest at the beginning, and he has good potential."

"And the appearance is good, it is worth cultivating."

"Then are you doing it yourself? Now there are several albums in preparation, and it may not be so easy to find some good songs for him. ”

"You don't deliberately go around in circles."

Wei Xiong didn't know what Luo Dayou was thinking, and said directly: "I wrote three songs, and I'll ask the secretary to send them to you later." ”

"I'm not worried that you don't have time, then I'll wait for your big work."

……

After hanging up the phone, Wei Xiong thought for a while, then took out a pen and paper, and wrote it with a brush, but after a closer look, it was a song sheet.

It took about ten minutes to write three songs, and then asked Chen Mengyao to take them to Luo Dayou.

"Knock knock."

Ouyang Yalan pushed the door and walked in: "Boss, the American "Time Magazine" just sent an invitation letter and wanted to invite you to do an exclusive interview. ”

Wei Xiong thought for a moment and nodded: "Yes, you can arrange the time, preferably in the next few days." ”

With the growth of strength and power.

More and more media outlets are sending him interviews, almost every few days, from influential media outlets in the region or internationally.

But in the end, he didn't say much.

In addition to his mood, it also depends on whether the influence of this media is big enough.
