……

"You really spare no effort to praise John Woo and "The True Color of Heroes", judging from the current box office trend, it is not a problem to break through 41 million Hong Kong dollars in a record. Hu Yinmeng put down the crystal cup and said with a smile.

Beauty and red wine complement each other, and it is this tone that the richest man enjoys.

However, don't look at Tang Huan's first day in Xiangjiang, he ran to himself, Hu Yinmeng still put out his most common salad for hospitality, and a little special is that he added some extra tuna.

Fortunately, Tang Huan is a typical omnivore, and his taste is not so bad, but he can eat as much as the other party who has a good bite.

"Then the quality of this work is worth adapting to the right time, place and people. Tang Huan had a natural expression on his face.

Originally, the 40 million steps of the box office of Hong Kong films could not be reached until Stephen Chow's low-cost comedy "The Saint of Gambling" in 1990, which surpassed the box office champion "God of Gamblers" by more than 5 million in the previous year.

This amazing achievement is of course due to the reason for following the trend, but it is mainly related to the trend of popular culture in Hong Kong at that time.

The current environment is just when the frenzy of gangster movies in Xiangjiang is about to erupt, regardless of whether John Woo, Xu Ke and others promote this theme, they have invisibly played a role in the door, and they have gained the first-mover advantage of taking advantage of the east wind.

Sometimes, the classic and the phenomenon have to fit in this way.

Even if the sequel to "True Colors of Heroes" is released as quickly as possible, it may not continue to be such a sensational achievement in Hong Kong. The "God of Gamblers", which was followed up with the help of the popularity of gambling films, as well as the sequel and the third part, confirmed this rule.

Of course, the operation of the Heung Kong Cinema Group also played a decisive role, and it relied on the absolute advantage of the cinema resources in its hands, and tilted it in terms of publicity, film arrangement, etc., to create this miracle.

Such support naturally has many benefits, first of all, it has further launched the popularity of Hong Kong films in the world, which is in line with the interests of the vast majority of Hong Kong filmmakers. The most obvious example in front of us is that it has greatly driven the overseas distribution of Hong Kong films.

"The eldest master has the ability, sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai, and he can control everything. As a female literary youth who prides herself on seeing through the world, but can only go with the flow, Hu Yinmeng subconsciously couldn't get used to the pretense of the man in front of her, and immediately teased.

"It is undeniable that in the military merit medal, there is a small half of me, and more than half of you. Tang Huan smiled disapprovingly, and used a popular phrase in the mainland.

DreamWorks' vision is not short-sighted, only staring at the markets of Xiangjiang and Baodao, of course, Hu Yinmeng knows the hot spots on the mainland.

After thanking Bumin for this heartwarming remark, she knocked on the table and complained: "I'll tell you, you went to Xiangjiang this time to be in the town." After the semi-finals, the momentum of the second Sister Hua Contest has indeed risen, but what follows is that the beauties with a bit of exotic style have become the target of all kinds of tabloid gossip, especially some self-righteous hunters, which is simply overwhelming. ”

Tang Huan, who is also limited in this regard, picked up the crystal cup and shook it in disguise, and muttered: "Bored things, don't you care about it, isn't Miss Xiangjiang's election campaign like this, while enjoying the attention of the public, it will also be taken to various arrangements." ”

"The problem is that if this kind of chaos is not controlled, it is likely to affect the normal order of the Huajie Competition. Seeing Tang Huan's somewhat prevaricating look, Hu Yinmeng glared at him dissatisfied, "Some sons and brothers like the Zhao family and the Xu family are too high-profile, and they simply regard this platform as a place for them to brush up their sense of existence and even change their fresh tastes." It is their freedom to want to make trouble, but don't come out at this juncture to show off and take advantage of the situation, which will ruin the style of the Sister Hua competition. ”

"Then you just drive them away, who dares to really make it difficult for you. Tang Huan said lazily.

"If you still ignore it like this, be careful that I'll be happy to watch your Limedian being abducted. Hu Yinmeng knocked on the table again in annoyance.

"If she's that blind, I don't care. Tang Huan said confidently.

"What about the little flowers and bones like Girls' Generation in the Dream Factory?" Hu Yinmeng simply threatened.

"It depends on who. Tang Huan was so entangled that he frowned and asked, "The children of the Xu family come to brush up on their sense of existence, I can understand, but do the children of the Zhao family still have this mood?

In the shipping industry in Hong Kong, Zhao Congyan of Huaguang Shipping is known as the king of ships along with Pao Yugang of Global Shipping and Dong Haoyun of OOCL.

Now, Bao Yugang has successfully abandoned the ship and landed in the local area regardless of blood, Dong Jianhua has also found strong foreign aid for OOCL, and Huaguang Shipping, which has also not escaped the impact of the industry depression and owes a huge debt of 6.7 billion, is supported by Zhao Congyan, and even does not hesitate to sell assets to repay debts to keep this foundation.

In this case, the children of the Zhao family still have the leisure to come out and mess around, which is really an outlier.

"Then you haven't had time to read the documents, Huaguang Shipping has been approved by creditors to carry out asset restructuring, and it is expected to resume listing on the Xiangjiang Securities Stock Exchange next year at the latest. Therefore, Zhao Shicheng, who lingered in Shaw's villa all the year round to taste Miss Xiangjiang's election for beauty, turned the battlefield to the Sister Hua competition. ”

After Hu Yinmeng finished explaining, he didn't forget to squeeze Tang Huan, "I don't know if you can still be as ambitious as him when you reach the age of 50?"

"You're talking about him, but this guy is a bit of a real thing. Tang Huan made a look of sympathy.

Hu Yinmeng blinked, with a dangerous light in his eyes, and said slowly: "You won't forget, it was his younger brother and sister who helped introduce the eldest young master of the Guo family to Deng Lijun." ”

"It's all a short trivia for some parents, and what do you mention it for? Tang Huan's face turned a little dark.

"I know that your heart's eyes, once smaller, are smaller than the nose of a needle. Hu Yinmeng chuckled, "If you feel uncomfortable, then help me straighten out the order." ”

"You are afraid that I will not make enemies on all sides. Tang Huan snorted stupidly, "Let's talk about it then, I have something to visit in person." ”

"Whatever you want. Hu Yinmeng, who was suitable, rolled his eyes and demanded: "No matter how busy you are, the day after tomorrow at the latest, you will go to the dream factory to inspect it." ”

……

No matter how funny Hu Yinmeng is, he will be cleaned up by Tang Huan in the end, not to mention that he was teased by the British noble Yanma before.

The next day, Mr. The richest man in high spirits took his entourage to the Hershey Center in Tsim Sha Tsui East for a private visit.

At the beginning, in order to suppress the Shangri-La Hotel opposite, he built a cyberport here, causing a series of water outages, power outages, and traffic jams for the other party, making him miserable, and finally Guo Kongcheng, who pestered Deng Lijun in every possible way, was transferred away by his father.

Up to now, the Hershey Center has developed into a well-known distribution center for high-tech products such as electronics and computers in Xiangjiang and even Southeast Asia.

Of course, the skyrocketing popularity of the Hershey Center has inevitably brought some light to the nearby Shangri-La Hotel, which can get a considerable source of customers from the dense flow of people.

However, the Guo family did not rejoice in this. The hustle and bustle of the Hershey's Center has greatly affected the surrounding environment of Shangri-La Hotel, and directly pulled down the style that had been painstakingly created. The customers it contributes to are often favored by those affordable standard rooms, resulting in high-spending units such as luxury rooms being vacant for a long time.

In response to this situation, the Kwok family could only endure it in secret, and tried to find a new branch address on Hong Kong Island.

Originally, the Kwok family took a fancy to the land that Swire Group intended to compete for in Admiralty in order to build it into the planned Pacific Place, but in the end, Swire Group returned and the land was snatched away by Qinhe Group, and this plan also fell through.

In this regard, the Guo family's investment in the hotel in Xiangjiang can only hang in the air without going up or down, and the situation is very strange.

Tang Huan personally went to the Hershey Center this time, naturally not because he was bored to come to admire the worthless achievements, but planned to see with his own eyes the sparks of IBM-PC compatible machines in Xiangjiang.

Not surprisingly, the six doors of the IBM-PC compatible machine camp have caught up with the sluggish blue giant, becoming the second PC force in the market to launch a PC with an Intel 80386 microprocessor.

Essentially, the IBM-PC-compatible 386 computer has limited innovation, for example, it has not had time to design a bus for the new 32-bit architecture Intel80386 to match its performance, but it is only upgraded on the IBM-PC/AT platform to support Intel80386.

It can be said that the 386 computer in the IBM-PC compatible machine camp is more like a simple upgrade of the computing speed of the 286 computer, and many of the novel 32-bit architecture features of the Intel80386 are shelved.

It's not difficult to understand that the six doors of the IBM-PC compatible machine camp are just a loose alliance, and it's almost impossible to twist into a rope to exert force.

Perhaps, it will be until IBM launches a new design of the PS/2 that they will revise and upgrade a truly new system on this basis.

However, the technically lackluster IBM-PC compatible machine camp should not be underestimated, because they have seized the big killer of "good quality and low price".

At this stage, the most sensitive point for customers who buy personal computers is price, and IBM-PC compatible machines can cater to such market needs.

Tang Huan heard that in the Xiangjiang market, there was an IBM-PC compatible machine with a price of only more than 2,000 Hong Kong dollars. With such a price advantage, the penetration of market share can be imagined.

In today's era, the United States is the undisputed most advanced country in computer applications, and other regions often lag behind half a generation, and Chinese mainland is at least a generation behind.

After all, computer applications require a foundation that is linked to one link after another – even if a web browser can be pulled out right now, not to mention the question of whether the computer can function, what can it view?

Therefore, the advantages of high-quality and inexpensive IBM-PC compatible machines are even more obvious in these next-generation markets where the demand for applications is not too high.

A thousand miles of embankment, destroyed in an anthill.

Although the Xiangjiang market is considerable, Tang Huan is more worried that IBM-PC compatible machines use Xiangjiang as a springboard to burn the flames of the personal computer standards battle to Chinese mainland.

It is not uncommon for the various companies in Zhongguancun to act as agents for Fangyuan's personal computers to reach tens of millions of dollars in annual sales, which is determined by huge demand.

If Zhongguancun Xinding, such as Lenovo, who emerged after the "two links and two seas", is eager to catch up, and then is attracted by the huge profit margin of IBM-PC compatible machines, and takes the initiative to become its agent in Chinese mainland, then it will disrupt the application environment that Tang Huan has painstakingly created.

Tang Huan, who thought that he had to go to the scene to assess the situation in person, was surrounded by several salesmen as soon as he walked into the Hershey Center.

……

"Boss, do you want the latest floppy disk drive adapter for the Xiaobawang game console? With it, you can play a game cartridge for hundreds of dollars with only a ten-dollar floppy disk. ”

"Zheru's five major office software suites, gift box, 50 yuan a set, only charge the cost of your floppy disk. ”

……

Regarding software piracy, although Tang Huan had expected it and acquiesced to a certain extent, he couldn't help but touch the corners of his mouth a few times when he was marketed in person.

After settling down, Tang Huan asked casually, "Is there a database EBase for sale?"

"We only have the SME version here, which only costs 500 yuan, which is absolutely genuine. The other party replied in a matter-of-fact manner.

"Good guy, just quote a quarter of the price, and dare to call yourself genuine EBase. Tang Huan shook his head and smiled bitterly and continued to walk forward.

"Sir, if you are too expensive, we can discuss it, don't be in a hurry to leave. The other party called eagerly from behind.

Tang Huan didn't even bother to wave his hand and refuse, he directly followed the instructions and went upstairs to look at the personal computer, and found the products of the two members of the six doors of the IBM-PC compatible machine camp - AST and NEC.

Although NEC is strong, in the field of personal computers, it is only a foil to AST - the variety of product models on the counter speaks for itself.

A few steps away, Tang Huan heard the merchant enthusiastically introduced: "The price of AST's high-end model is only equivalent to the price of Fangyuan's mid-range model, and Fangyuan computer is mainly to meet the needs of commercial users, so many functions are almost not used by individual users, and it is a waste to buy them, and it is not as affordable as AST." ”

Tang Huan, who was muttering in his heart, "I dare to come to the wilderness in my backyard", just leaned over and heard the merchant continue: "If you are still too expensive, you can buy it with a mortgage, HSBC and Hang Seng provide such services for students in the summer, and you can also find someone to handle the relevant certificates." ”

After hearing this, Tang Huan couldn't help but be stunned, and then secretly sneered: "Old family thieves also have time to wander, it seems that they still don't understand that computers are a product that depreciates quite quickly. (To be continued.) )
