Chapter 0616 Luxury Toys Can Be Made
After Tang Huan looked through the human resources documents on the desk, he finally decided to use the old man and called Li Xiaotian and Xiang Xuehuai, who had known each other for several years.
Currently, both men are playing for DreamWorks. Li Xiaotian is mainly engaged in soundtracks, and the combination formed by lyricist Lu Guozhan is equivalent to TVB's Gu Jiahui and Huang Zhan, and is also responsible for the record production of singers such as Zhang Guorong; In addition to participating in administrative management, Xiang Xuehuai also serves as a music producer and lyricist, and the songs "Rain in the East Mountain and Clear in the West Mountain" and "Who is Changing" sung by Deng Lijun are his works.
There are too many places where music is needed for DreamWorks' records, TV series, movies, video games, and other entertainment content production, so although DreamWorks is large in scale and has sufficient manpower, backbones like Li Xiaotian and Xiang Xuehuai are still very busy, and it is really difficult for ordinary people to trouble others with the burden of public welfare and charity.
Li Xiaotian and Xiang Xuehuai only thought that this was the boss who wanted to help their confidante fulfill his wish, so they agreed without hesitation.
"We've known each other for more than four years, and we're old friends, so I'm relieved to tell you." Tang Huan leaned back in his chair and looked at the two of them with a slight smile, "This charity and public welfare activity cannot be limited to DreamWorks and the record companies that have partnerships, if it is operated well, the influence of the entire Xiangjiang music scene will take a step forward." ”
When listening to Tang Huan talk about how to gather more than 30 popular singers to participate together, Li Xiaotian gasped, "With the face of our DreamWorks, we will seconded artists from the first line and below." Just one sentence; But it's probably not easy to get so many popular stars together. ”
"Otherwise, I wouldn't have to ask you to come and help." Tang Huan groaned and said, "Fang Yihua will come over in a while, and I will help you get Huaxing Records by the way." The rest of the record companies are up to you to figure it out, and I'm going to see the star-studded version of "Sunshine Is Always After the Storm" in March at the latest. ”
After the farewell came out, Li Xiaotian scratched his head, "It seems that this year is not idle." ”
"The boss's pattern and vision are not comparable to us, we just have to do it." Xiang Xuehuai looked full of momentum.
The two discussed in a low voice, and as soon as the elevator door opened, they saw Fang Yihua waiting outside. They hurriedly said hello. Then they tacitly glanced at each other, and said that the boss really said that Huaxing Records didn't have to deal with it by himself.
……
This time. The things that Tang Huan needed to pay attention to were both important and complicated, so he rarely saw guests, and if it weren't for Zhang Manyu's message last night, even Fang Yihua wouldn't have bothered to deal with it.
I took a quick look at the documents that the other party brought. Tang Huan asked casually, "I haven't seen Uncle Sixth for a while." Why didn't he come this time? ”
The implication is that these things should be handled by Shao Yifu.
With the steady recovery of the stock market and real estate, the speculative atmosphere in the business community of Hong Kong has become noticeably warmer.
After all, since the 1960s, Chinese businessmen have accumulated huge wealth from repeated crises with their adventurous spirit, thus surpassing British businessmen as a whole.
Now many people are also looking forward to replicating such proven successes, so much so that there is no shortage of cross-border players entering the real estate industry. For example, Hu Xian'er, the owner of "Sing Tao Daily". Even Zou Wenhuai, the boss of Golden Harvest, was moved.
Of course, Shao Yifu also has his own calculations, but he is relatively conservative. Mainly do diversification articles on TVB.
In fact, TVB-Television Broadcasts Limited is a subsidiary of Heung Kong Television Limited, as is Huaxing Records, so it is on a par with TVB-Television Broadcasts Limited.
Heung Kong Television Co., Ltd. was listed last year, and Tang Huan's strategic investment was given to it, not to support its profits, but to prevent the controlling stake from falling and disrupting the current pattern of the Heung Kong TV industry.
Obviously, the well-known TVB, Television Broadcasts Co., Ltd., basically plays the role of a blood transfusion, and its name often represents the group of Heung Kong Television Co., Ltd.
At this stage, Heung Kong Television Co., Ltd. has extended its tentacles to other fields in addition to the business of television and records.
For example, it established Boyi Publishing House, published its own official TV station publication "Xiangjiang TV", as well as the Chinese edition of "Fashion" and the comprehensive sports magazine "Winning the Bid".
At the same time, Heung Kong Television Co., Ltd. obtained the franchise of subway convenience stores and operated under the brand name of "Heung Kong TV Service Station".
In addition, its business also includes travel agencies, among others.
In terms of international expansion, TVB also cooperated with Canada's Chinese TV New Era Media together with Media Asia TV under the introduction of Tang Huan.
As for the relationship between TVB and Media Asia TV, they are still fighting for ratings from time to time, observing each other's successes with their eyes wide open, and good copycats come to improve themselves; Different from the original time and space, Media Asia TV is no longer always on the weak side, and the viewing groups of the two are quietly differentiating.
Generally speaking, TVB does not have the backing of Media Asia TV, and Tang Huan is also relatively satisfied with the current situation.
The document sent by Fang Yihua is about the diversified cooperation of Heung Kong Television Co., Ltd. in addition to the entertainment media industry such as television and records, and the rigid resources of Shaw Brothers Cinemas and Shaw Brothers Films are handed over to DreamWorks in exchange for energetic returns, and Shaw Yifu, who obviously tastes the sweetness and intends to continue to copy this routine.
What's more tacit is that the ownership of Xiangjiang has been decided, and the tycoons must reposition their relationship with the mainland, and it is impossible for Shao Yifu to put Tang Huan as a ready-made resource, otherwise, why did he bother to maintain a cooperative relationship with Tang Huan before?
Fang Yihua sighed and replied, "His third brother has been in poor health recently, so he can't get out of his body. ”
Tang Huan nodded suddenly, Shao Yifu's third brother, that is Shao Renmei - the Shaw Brothers Company was created by the two of them. Shao Yifu is strict, and Shao Renmei is generous. As a result, a perfect combination of company operations has been formed, and a film kingdom has been achieved.
According to the traditional habits of the Ning Bo family, Shao Yifu's eldest son Shao Weiming. When he was young, he was raised by Shao Renmei, the so-called "pair of adoption" - the children of each brother were raised by each other.
It can be seen from this how close the relationship between the brothers Shao Yifu and Shao Renmei is.
"The New Year is at the end of the year, for the elderly, the New Year is really passable." Tang Huan also sighed and put the document away, "I will urge Qinhe Group to actively cooperate in hotels, restaurants, etc." There is no problem with the development of the land on the Clear Water Bay set. ”
Speaking of this, Tang Huan made a sudden appearance of remembering something, "That's right." Li Jun plans to invite a group of popular singers to record a charity song "Sunshine is Always After the Wind and Rain" in the form of a chorus of stars, hoping that TVB and Huaxing Records can help release people at that time. ”
"Of course I'd like to be an adult." Fang Yihua didn't think deeply. also thought that Tang Huan was doing his confidante a favor. This kind of personal matter is a great opportunity to sell favors, and he immediately agreed without thinking, and then asked tentatively, "Mr. Tang, how did I hear that Media Asia TV and DreamWorks plan to hold a beauty pageant similar to Miss Xiangjiang this year, so there is no need to fight in the ring." ”
I have to say that the circle of Xiangjiang is so big. In addition, Media Asia TV and TVB have long had heavy money poaching, collective job hopping and other personnel flows, and it is really not easy to achieve complete secrecy.
Tang Huan, who listened to this report. Rubbing his eyebrows, he replied with a wry smile: "Recently, I really can't bother to ask about this kind of thing, and I can't even take care of the almost bloody theater dispute between DreamWorks, Golden Harvest and Golden Princess Entertainment, so you better find a specific person to ask and coordinate." ”
Seeing that Tang Huan pushed cleanly, Fang Yihua didn't want to say anything, but muttered in his heart, "It's better for you to pretend to be confused, before Media Asia TV imitated TVB in various ways, but now even Miss Xiangjiang beauty pageant is not spared, I just happened to use the color." ”
……
Tang Huan did have things that he couldn't be distracted from.
On January 10, 1979, the Annam army took control of Hanoukville, an important port city in Funan; And today, the same battle is going on here.
A fleet camouflaged for satellite reconnaissance sailed from the Strait of Malacca to the Gulf of Siam, not in the innermost part of Bangkok, but on the way to the port of Hanoukville.
The deep-water port was built in the 1950s and was funded by France and the United States, and served the U.S. military during the Vietnam War.
This shows the importance of the port of Hanoukville in its strategic location. Of course, more than a decade later, it has become a prestigious and pristine seaside resort.
As the supreme commander of this fleet, although Lu Xiaohu was calm on the surface, he was very nervous in his heart, after all, this mission was of great significance.
His hand subconsciously stroked the cold railing, and Tang Huan's laughter seemed to sound in his ears, "What a magnificent toy." However, you don't have to be careful, you can build it hard. ”
As a playmate, friend, and subordinate, Lu Xiaohu naturally understood the true meaning of Tang Huan's words - since a lot of money has been sprinkled, it should play a real role.
The actual operation of the fleet was carried out by mercenaries recruited from the United States, many of whom were experienced participants in the Vietnam War and relatively familiar with the situation in Indochina, and who were driven by money and the noble goal of helping the dire liberation of Funan.
It can be said that the hardware, personnel, intelligence, etc., are very well prepared, and the only thing that Lu Xiaohu is worried about is that after entering the real battle, whether the subordinates from these sources with some complicated sources can communicate and cooperate with each other smoothly and tacitly.
In the dawn sky, three signal flares suddenly flashed, which were very eye-catching.
Lu Xiaohu looked at the time and ordered in a deep voice: "According to the battle plan, start moving." ”
……
On the morning of the same day, the 171st Fleet of the Annam Navy entrenched in the port of Hanoukville was completely destroyed, and the remnants of the 101st and 126th Marine Brigades of Annam withdrew from the port of Hanoukville along Highway 4 leading to Phnom Penh.
In the afternoon, Annam's naval fleet was attacked by submarines near Phu Quoc Island and had to flee in a hurry with two sunken ships.
Annan, who was also building fortifications several hundred kilometers long in the western part of Funan and intending to destroy the Funan resistance forces alive in the wilderness, suddenly became furious and issued a strong protest at the United Nations based on the information he had gathered.
In fact, this kind of clamor began last year, but this time in addition to "discovering that the Chinese army has entered the Funan battlefield," a new content has been added, "the US Navy provoked war for no reason."
The other side of the matter, as quickly as possible, categorically denied, "Just kidding, we are lovers of peace, not aggressors." What's more, the identity of the people has been revealed, and they are the resistance force in Funan. ”
Deputy Annan snapped out the photo and said confidently: "I have long expected that you will cheat." Lo and behold, there is a picture and a truth. The American destroyer with such an obvious style can even see the fighters on it clearly. Although it is not yet possible to determine the details of the submarine, its existence is undoubted. How could the rebel forces in Funan have such advanced combat power? ”
"Why can't you have it, are you sure that there won't be people with deep pockets in Funan who can afford to buy these equipment at a price of billions of dollars?" The other party's denial attitude became more and more tough, "Anyway, it's just a sentence, this matter has nothing to do with our official dime, you better go and verify the situation first, my side is still busy appeasing my own people, our army is not involved in the war." ”
It is not possible to delay indefinitely with such nonsense, and Deputy Annan hurriedly asked the Soviet Union for help, "The United States the guy, I can't cope with this kind of comeback, you have to start helping immediately." ”
The big brother grinned, "The landlord's family really has no surplus food now, and the Afghan side is going to drag people to death, and even bread and butter have to be queued up to buy in the country." ”
"Well, I'll support you with intelligence. On your northern border, the frequency of exercises of the Chinese army has increased significantly. In the port of Hanoukville, where Funan was torn open, armored troops appeared. Be careful of the opponent's heading north and launch a direct attack on the capital Phnom Penh. ”
Annan turned around, except for arguing, it had no effect, and in the end, he had to rely on his own strength to solve the difficulties in front of him.
But the problem is that there is no food left at home. Since the start of the war in 1979, military spending has accounted for 50 to 60 per cent of the country's fiscal expenditure. Not only have the targets of the latest five-year plan not been met, but the national economy is on the verge of collapse. And in the poor place of Funan, the oil and water provided are really limited, and it has become a chicken rib.
No matter how tangled, the war waits for no one. The armored forces of Hanoukville Harbor seem to be really gathering and heading north. The trend of the battle situation in Funan was obviously out of Annan's control.
