Chapter 421: By the way

"I heard that Edward has a TV station in Hong Kong?" In the large and bright living room, a middle-aged man about the same age as the old Edward held his wife and asked Li Xu, who was also holding Diana, with a smile. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Yes, a small TV station, can't compare to you, Rupert. Li Xu shrugged.

"That's a television station for 6 million citizens, Edward," Rupert Murdoch said with a smile, "Are you preparing for the continent going north?"

"Of course," Li Xu did not hide it, "the market in the north, at most another ten years, no, at most another six years, the importance of their market will be highlighted, the media is different from other industries, the demand for hardware is much smaller." ”

"But as far as I know, the mainland government is not considering opening up the media industry at all. Murdoch said at this time.

"Of course, this is a matter of ideology, and it is impossible for the mainland government to compromise," Li Xu shrugged again, "That's why Hong Kong is needed." ”

"Oh?" said Murdoch, curious.

"There are loopholes in any policy that can be drilled, and Hong Kong is such a loophole," Li Xu said leisurely, "The mainland government will definitely take it back, no matter how the British tricks are, it can't stop it, but how to take it back, and how to arrange it after taking it back, is a matter that can be discussed." ”

Seeing Murdoch's serious look, Li Xu suddenly smiled toothily: "Of course, this is all my personal speculation, and the facts depend on the negotiations between China and the UK." ”

Murdoch paused and laughed, "That's true." ”

This kind of thing would definitely not be discussed on such an occasion, so he quickly turned to old Edward: "You have a wonderful son, Eddie. ”

"Yes, I'm very proud of him, and it would be better if he could spend more time on the family business. Old Edward said in a relaxed tone.

"The world is so beautiful, why be so impatient, Dad?" Li Xu immediately asked rhetorically, and then provoked a burst of laughter.

After a few more conversations, he said goodbye to the Murdoch couple and his parents, and took Diana away.

Greeting familiar and unfamiliar people at the party all the way—unfamiliar behavior—and chatting with Murdoch's eldest daughter, Elizabeth, and second son, James, before finding a corner to sit down.

"Isn't it a little boring?" Li Xu patted the back of his fiancée's hand:

"Indeed," Diana sighed subconsciously, but then immediately added, "this is what I should do." ”

"Okay, the rest is all about Daddy and them, we're just here for a holiday, walking around, looking at the snow in Sydney. Li Xu said comfortingly.

"But I've heard that it doesn't snow in Sydney, and in the Southern Hemisphere, July and August are winter. Diana said in a serious tone.

"It's not that it doesn't snow, it's that it rarely snows, and as long as the cold air is enough, it can snow even at the equator. Li Xu stretched out his hand and scratched her nose, "In this way, let's run around and take a look around, you are also here for the first time in Australia, right?"

"That's what you said!" said Diana, giggling at once.

Li Xu paused, reacted immediately, and secretly pinched her pretty face: "That's good, Dinah, now you have learned to take my words." ”

"Where do I have it? Diana still had to pretend to be "I don't know what you're talking about", and Li Xu had already leaned into her ear: "Go back to the hotel tonight and see how I clean you up." ”

took Diana and flew with her mother to Sydney to meet her father, mainly to meet Murdoch.

As for the reason, needless to say, after getting the support of his father, Murdoch's development began to get faster. The proposal to start with the media was first put forward by Li Xu, and Murdoch was also recommended by him, so he naturally wanted to get involved.

"I told Murdoch that cooperation was your suggestion, and you used to have to deal with Harvard, and you had to be busy with your own affairs, and everything was just starting again, so you didn't have to show up. But now that you've graduated, you have plenty of time, and a lot of things are going on pretty well, it's natural to expand your network. "That's what Daddy said.

Of course, most of the things are discussed between Daddy and Murdoch, 20th Century Fox and Warner are his targets, and Li Xu's main focus is on Disney and Paramount. Especially for the former, the struggle has not yet heated up, but if there are no accidents, the winner will be decided in the second half of the year at most.

So he can take Diana around and treat it as accompanying her, although he has not found time to go to the UK to accompany her in the past few years, but because he is studying at Harvard and likes to run to the Far East, most of the time Diana comes to accompany him, and he should not miss the opportunity to perform.

However, it was easy to come to Australia, and Li Xu had to achieve some other goals.

"Be careful!" The voice rang in her ears, and before the girl who was fascinated by the book could react, she was jerked back onto the sidewalk.

A motorcycle sped in front of him, leaving a "Fuck" floating in the air, leaving the girl or girl in shock.

She was about 5 feet 7 inches tall, taller than the average adult woman, and she was exactly a young girl. But the childishness on his face is very obvious, as if he is only sixteen or seventeen years old.

"Are you alright?" the voice came from behind her, and the girl turned her head with a sigh of relief.

"Thank you, sir. She said this, slightly curious.

The other party was obviously mixed-race, and he was very young, probably in his early twenties, very tall, at least half a head taller than himself. And he is very good at wearing clothes, coats, scarves, and leather gloves, which highlights his posture very slender and looks very handsome.

"It's not a good habit to walk and read, young lady. The other party said very politely, personable, very educated, and with a charming smile.

"Right...... I'm sorry. The girl blushed a little.

"Are you...... Actor?" the other party saw the title of the book in her hand.

"Sort of. The girl replied a little embarrassedly, "I played a few small roles." ”

"What's your name?" asked again.

Although she felt that the other party was a little abrupt, the girl hesitated for two minutes and then replied: "My name is Nicole, Nicole? Kidman, sir." ”

"Oh, Miss Kidman?" said the man with a smile.

"No, it's just Nicole? The girl laughed a little self-deprecatingly.

The surname has been a source of trouble for her since secondary school, as the Kidman family is one of Australia's largest landowners.

But the family is a family, the individual is an individual, not to mention a big family, she does not have to worry about food and clothing, but the family is at most slightly better than the average middle class.

"Well, Miss Kidman, it's nice to meet you," the other party nodded, "My name is Edward, Edward?Li, you can call me Edward or Eddie, of course, you can also call me Li Xu in Chinese." ”

Then without waiting for the other party to ask, he immediately asked again: "Are you interested in going to Hollywood?"

"Huh?" Nicole blinked, a blank expression on her fleshy face.

"With your qualities, you should be able to become an international superstar in Hollywood. The other party said with a smile.

"Ahh......h When I was a child, my mother used to tell her, "If you eat this, your wish will come true."

Li ...... Sir, what did you just say...... Am I interested in going to Hollywood, am I?" she asked, after she had her mind set up.

"Of course," Li Xu nodded, "I have a good film company in Hollywood, and I also like to invest in movies, so, Miss Beauty, would you like to try it?"

"I ...... The ......" After the initial excitement, Nicole became a little alert.

Although he looks handsome and very educated, he is so inexplicable, when he asks himself if he wants to go to Hollywood, he always feels that the other party has no good intentions, let alone ......

"I'm just a little actor, in a TV series...... Playing a supporting role?" Nicole replied carefully, she had also seen the scout, but she was not at all comparable to the man in front of her.

"It doesn't matter, acting skills can be practiced slowly, but beauty is innate. Li Xu is still smiling.

"Beauty...... Beauty?" Nicole was even more surprised, and then became a little angry.

"Do you think I look beautiful like this?" she glared at Li Xu angrily, first scratching her fluffy red hair, and then pointing to her freckled, somewhat round face, "These look beautiful?!"

A wave of anger began to churn in her heart, Nicole has always had low self-esteem about her appearance, especially a natural "tightrope", which is the public joke of the school. It's okay to be ridiculed for a few words, and I'm used to it anyway, but suddenly I met a handsome guy who said that you were very beautiful, and therefore asked you to go to the film company to develop, unless your heart is big enough, the first reaction will definitely not be joy.

But before her anger escalated, Li Xu said leisurely: "I'm talking about you ten years later." ”

"Huh?" Nicole was stunned for a moment, completely confused about what he was trying to say.

Then, a female voice came over: "Sorry, Add, for keeping you waiting. ”

"Oh, don't say such things, honey, this is what I should do. The man in front of him then turned around and hugged and kissed the young lady who came out of a nearby store.

She wore the same couple's coat and scarf as him, with short fluffy blond hair, and beautiful gray-blue eyes, which were not at all inferior to Nicole, the only thing she thought she could be attractive, not to mention the graceful temperament of her gestures, which was really embarrassing.

Wait! I was going to take advantage of this opportunity to sneak away, but after taking a closer look at the young lady, Nicole's eyes widened at the thought of something.

"By the way, why did you come outside and wait? It's so cold......

"Oh, that's because I happened to see that girl......"

The man and woman exchanged a few words, and the young lady came over: "Hello, Nicole, Miss Kidman, I'm ......."

"Diana Spencer, the sister of Princess Elizabeth. Nicole blurted out.
