"Thank you, Mr. Murdoch, I owe you a favor for this incident, and I will definitely try my best to help with Star Media's entry into Chinese mainland......"

Waiting for Xu Cun to hang up Murdoch's phone, Meng Guangmei, who had been waiting for a while on the side, stepped forward and said: "Shao Yifu, Jin Yong, Zhao Shuhui, and Ma Chengkun are all here, Brother Cun, will you see you together or separately?" ”

Looking at his watch, it was already past eleven o'clock in the middle of the night, Xu Cun said, "Let's take a piece." Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

After a short time, Xu Cun came to the reception room and saw Shao Yifu, Jin Yong, Zhao Shuhui, and Ma Chengkun.

Xu Cunxian greeted Shao Yifu slightly apologetically: "I'm sorry, Sixth Uncle, it's so late, and I still invite you over!" ”

Shao Yifu waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's okay, people are old and young, and they are not bad." ”

Chong Shao Yifu nodded, and Xu Cun said again: "Sixth uncle, we are our own family, so let's talk about it later, I'll talk to Mr. Scum, Mr. Zhao, and Mr. Ma first." ”

Shao Yifu smiled: "Okay, no, I'll live in your Shiao tonight." ”

After speaking, Shao Yifu slowly stood up, and then walked slowly to the window to watch the night view of Shek O.

Seeing Shao Yifu's attitude like this, Xu Cun was also relieved!

This time, if the only two TV stations in Hong Kong are speaking to the mainland, it will be of great benefit to the mainland!

Phoenix Channel, Xu Cun accounts for 100% of the shares, naturally Xu Cun can report as much as he wants!

TVB, Xu Cun is only the second largest shareholder, although Shao Yifu does not have absolute control, but in addition to Xu Cun, almost all of TVB's shareholders are Shao Yifu's close friends, and TVB has been operated by Shao Yifu for many years, if Shao Yifu is determined to oppose Xu Cun, then Xu Cun will have a lot of trouble.

The most important thing is that it is not without the possibility that Shao Yifu is determined to oppose Xu Cun -- you must know that one of the enemies in the mainland this time is the British and pro-British people, and Shao Yifu is after all the British knight, Xu Cun can think with his heels that there must have been pro-British people or even the British looking for Shao Yifu.

Therefore, Xu Cuncai invited Shao Yifu over, so as not to have a big enemy.

Now that he has seen Shao Yifu's positive attitude, how can Xu Cun not understand that Shao Yifu should choose to occupy his side this time?

Glancing at Shao Yifu's back, Xu Cun retracted his gaze, then looked at Jin Yong, Zhao Shuhui, and Ma Chengkun, and said: "Mr. Scum, Mr. Zhao, Mr. Ma, the purpose of my invitation to come over must be clear to you, so I won't go around the corner, I want to ask the three of you to sell me a face, and temporarily stop reporting on the mainland." ”

After 12 years of operation, Xu Cun Xiangjiang can definitely be said to be one of the best people - this is why, although it is so late, Xu Cun invited, Jin Yong, Zhao Shuhui, and Ma Cheng Kun also came in person.

But-

The literati still have some backbones in the end - although Xu Cun is so powerful that they don't want to offend, Jin Yong still stubbornly said: "The responsibility of the media is to let the public know about ......"

Xu Cun raised his hand to stop Jin Yong, who was about to preach, and said, "I'm not talking to you about right or wrong, I'm just asking you for favors, do you sell this favor or not, Xu Cun?" ”

"This ......"

Jin Yong, Zhao Shuhui, and Ma Chengkun were collectively silent.

After a while, Zhao Shuhui persuaded: "Mr. Xu, you are already a Xiangjiang person, and Xiangjiang is a place that advocates freedom......

Xu Cun said lightly: "I'll say it one last time, I don't talk about right or wrong, and what you want to report is not necessarily right, I only want a favor from you, do you sell this favor or not, Xu Cun?" ”

Zhao Shuhui is only less than ten years older than Ma Chengkun, and he can barely be regarded as a figure among the younger generation of Xiangjiang, so it is inevitable that he is a little arrogant - seeing Xu Cun so aggressive, Zhao Shuhui couldn't help but say: "Mr. Xu, you are inevitably too domineering, the responsibility of media people is to report the truth, Xiangjiang is not an uncivilized continent, this is a free land......

"Five hundred million." Xu Cun lightly interrupted Zhao Shuhui.

"Uh......"

Zhao Shuhui was stunned and said, "What 500 million? ”

Xu Cun said: "I bought "Overseas Chinese Daily" and "Daily Express" for 500 million Hong Kong dollars. ”

"Overseas Chinese Daily" is the longest-running newspaper in Hong Kong (its history can be traced back to the establishment of the Hong Kong Bow Price Paper in 1857, which was completely ceased publication in 2008).

After World War II, Overseas Chinese Daily, Industrial and Commercial Daily and Sing Tao Daily became the most important newspapers in Hong Kong at that time. Because it often publishes news about the activities of secondary schools and universities, the "Overseas Chinese Daily" has many readers in the cultural and educational circles of Hong Kong.

Later, due to poor management, "Overseas Chinese Daily" was replaced by "Ming Pao" and "Sing Tao Daily".

At present, Huaqiao Daily also has more than 100,000 loyal readers, and is one of the 12 major newspapers in Hong Kong, and its sister newspaper "Daily Express" also has a great influence in Sabah, Malaysia.

But-

Despite this, "Overseas Chinese Daily" and "Daily Express" are still not comparable to "Sing Tao Daily", "Oriental Daily", and "Ming Pao", so "Overseas Chinese Daily" and "Daily Express" are naturally not worth 500 million Hong Kong dollars.

Therefore, hearing Xu Cun say that he was going to buy "Overseas Chinese Daily" and "Daily Express" with 500 million, Zhao Shuhui suddenly felt like he was pinched by the neck!

Although his ability is average, Zhao Shuhui is also an old fritter who has been rolling in the mall for many years anyway, how can he not understand that Xu Cun bought "Overseas Chinese Daily" and "Daily Express" at a high price because he wanted to solve these things?

In the last life, two years later, that is, in 1991, "Overseas Chinese Daily" was acquired by Murdoch, which shows that Zhao Shuhui did not have much affection for "Overseas Chinese Daily".

Therefore, blushing and thinking for a while, Zhao Shuhui gritted his teeth and said: "600 million, as long as Mr. Xu is willing to pay 600 million, I will sell you the "Overseas Chinese Daily"!" ”

Xu Cun didn't even look at the greedy Zhao Shuhui again, and directly turned his head to Guang Mei and said: "Xiao Mg, you go and help me make an appointment with Ye Mingwei, who is controlled by the Ye family and his sons, and tell him that I intend to buy "Overseas Chinese Daily" and "Daily Express" at a high price or his Ye father and son holdings, and let him fly over to talk to me now." -- Although "Overseas Chinese Daily" and "Daily Express" are both managed by Zhao Shuhui, and Zhao Shuguan also holds a large part of the shares of these two newspapers, in fact, the largest shareholders of "Overseas Chinese Daily" and "Daily Express" are Malaysia's Yip & Sons Holdings Limited. If Xu Cun acquires the shares of "Overseas Chinese Daily" and "Daily Express" controlled by Yip father and son, there is no need to buy Zhao Shuhui's shares in "Overseas Chinese Daily" and "Daily Express". At that time, Zhao Shuhui will not only lose an opportunity to make a fortune, but also lose the management rights of the "Overseas Chinese Daily" and the "Daily Express". In that case, Zhao Shuhui will be tragic!

Thinking about this, Zhao Shuhui hurriedly said: "Mr. Xu, I sell, I sell, I sell 500 million!" ”

Xu Cun glanced at Zhao Shuhui and said lightly, "Can you be Ye Mingwei's master?" ”

Zhao Shuhui no longer cared about the face of the literati, and hurriedly explained: "Mr. Ye has long intended to sell the "Overseas Chinese Daily" and "Daily Express", Mr. Xu, you have the sincerity to buy "Overseas Chinese Daily" and "Daily Express", and with me matching from the middle, this transaction will definitely be successful!" Afraid that Xu Cun would regret it or go directly to Ye Mingwei to talk, Zhao Shuhui immediately added: "Don't worry, Mr. Xu, in the process of trading, "Overseas Chinese Daily" and "Daily Express" will never report on the mainland again!" ”

At this moment, Weng Hong came to Xu Cun's side, and then whispered a few words in Xu Cun's ear.

After listening to Weng Hong's whisper, Xu Cun looked at Jin Yong and said, "Congratulations, Mr. Scum, from now on, I will replace Mr. Shen Baoxin as your new partner." ”
