1983 is the fifth year of Zhong Chuhong's debut. This year, she was tired a lot, and she took over six movies in which she played the main role.

The Hong Kong film industry produces hundreds of films every year, and not every one of them is eligible to enter the serious 800 theater chain, and even if it can be released, it may not be a good box office.

But among the movies in which Zhong Chuhong participated, the box office of the sci-fi comedy "Interstellar Blunt Tire" was lower, but it also exceeded 6 million, which belonged to the upper middle level; As for the "Five Lucky Stars" released in the summer, the box office reached more than 20 million.

Although the final box office results of "God of Gamblers" have not yet come out, judging from the current hot state of "Plan A", which absolutely suppresses Golden Harvest's "Plan A", there is no reason why DreamWorks Theaters should not squeeze its commercial value to more than 30 million.

It can be said that the 23-year-old Zhong Chuhong, as his name suggests, is really popular, and he became popular simply by relying on the form of movies, which can be called the most typical achievement of DreamWorks' packaging and promotion of artists.

Due to the Christmas period, the crew of "God of Gamblers" was going to Melbourne, Australia to do publicity, Zhong Chuhong was packing his belongings and packing them into a suitcase.

"Ah Hong, when you go out, keep a few more eyes. There are often the kind of male bosses with bad intentions who take the opportunity of business trips to plot against female subordinates. Zhong's mother, who deliberately put down the business of the clothing store and came back to help, told her repeatedly uneasily.

"You think too much, our company is so big and regular." Zhong Chuhong shook his head with a smile.

"Yes. Miss Zhong Chuhong is now the most popular flower girl in DreamWorks, except for the big boss, who dares to uncover the rules. Zhong Xiaomei interjected in a twitter.

"Little girl. What nonsense. Zhong Chuhong raised her hand and slapped her sister. Then comfort the mother. "The director said that the task was to go to Melbourne's Chinatown for a cutscene, which is actually equivalent to a Christmas holiday benefit, which is used to reward the crew of "God of Gamblers"."

Speaking of this, Zhong Chuhong showed a yearning look, "Recently, I saw a special introduction of koalas on Media Asia TV, and this time I can take a closer look." ”

"I'm going to have to take some more pictures and come back." Zhong Xiaomei admonished enviously and repeatedly.

……

When it was time to board the plane, Zhong Chuhong didn't know. The vehicle for this trip was Tang Huan's famous private jet, Silicon Valley One. The "God of Gamblers" crew is only one of the passengers, and most of the others are behind-the-scenes personnel such as directors, screenwriters, and administrators in Media Asia TV and DreamWorks.

"We belong to Brother Jing's light, otherwise we won't be able to get on this private jet." Zhou Yanfa said with a smile.

"The crew actually borrowed the light of the two of you." Wang Jing smiled and looked at Zhou Yanfa and Yu An'an, who were sitting together affectionately, "Originally, Tang Sheng took the behind-the-scenes staff of the TV station and DreamWorks on vacation, but after he heard the news that you were going to get married, he specially mentioned it and granted the two of them a tourist vacation." "God of Gamblers" is so good at the box office, the crew will also go to Melbourne by the way. ”

In the midst of laughter, Zhou Xingchi asked, "Have you chosen where to put the wedding wine?" ”

"I've chosen, I'm at Maxim's Restaurant." Zhou Yanfa nodded. "DreamWorks and Qinhe are both Tang Sheng's industries, and we are looking for a location that is affordable and affordable. It's a lot more convenient. ”

Yu An'an, who was doing a little bird on the side, turned his eyes to Zhong Chuhong and Lu Xiuling, "Ah Hong, Miss Lu, I said okay, please be a bridesmaid when the time comes." ”

"Your bridesmaid team is getting bigger and bigger, and I'm under a lot of pressure to find a groomsman." Zhou Yanfa sighed.

……

The crew of "God of Gamblers" chatted enthusiastically together, and the behind-the-scenes staff of Media Asia TV and DreamWorks were also lively, among which Li Zhaoxiong, Wang Xinwei, Liu Jiahao, and Mei Xiaoqing became the objects of ridicule.

Everyone said, "It seems that there are still a lot of conveniences for finding a colleague to be a wife, such as the vacation arranged by the company, which directly completes the world of two people." ”

……

"In the future, the company will arrange more flexible vacation methods, so that everyone can have more opportunities to spend time with their families." Tang Huan, who was the last to board the plane, said with a smile as he walked.

"Tang Sheng, good." Everyone hurriedly and respectfully greeted one after another.

When walking past the crew of "God of Gamblers", Tang Huan patted his pocket, "I forgot to prepare a red envelope." Ah Fa, An An, I'll supply you in a few days. ”

"Tang Sheng, An An and I are both your subordinates. Your red envelope, who will you give it to in the end? Zhou Yanfa asked with a hippie smile.

"What a shrewd Ah Fa, you are changing your tricks, you want two red envelopes." Tang Huan laughed loudly.

……

After Silicon Valley No. 1 took off smoothly, Tang Huan began to explain some things to Zhou Liang Shuyi, "TVB will be publicly listed next month, and I will hold part of the shares." This is just a cooperation to get out of the Xiangjiang River, and when the time comes, you have to communicate well with the management of Media Asia TV to avoid misinterpretation. ”

"Understood." Zhou Liang Shuyi nodded, "So, TVB promised to work with us to extend its business to Canada?" ”

Although Sir Shao had some doubts, he still agreed. After all, Xiangjiang is too small, and diversifying its business and going international is an inevitable choice. Tang Huan groaned and asked for opinions, "It seems that the public company has some benefits for the image of the TV station, do you think, is Media Asia TV suitable for listing?" ”

Zhou Liang Shuyi thought seriously for a moment and replied slowly: "When Tang Sheng took over Li's TV, the value of the TV station's assets was about 200 million. Later, although some artists were separated, with the great development of news, sports, variety shows and other programs, as well as the investment in fixed assets such as comprehensive equipment upgrading, plus the appreciation of intangible assets such as brands, the scale of Media Asia TV has more than doubled. But if you put it on the stock market, the plate is still too small. ”

"Are you worried that the equity will change again and bring shock to Media Asia TV?" Tang Huan nodded, "Then let's put this matter aside for a while and see the situation." ”

Seeing that Tang Huan was really asking for advice, Zhou Liang Shuyi secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. Although Guy has strong confidence in Tang Huan's financial strength, Media Asia TV is now on the rise, and it is very money-burning. As the de facto top operational leader. She instinctively has apprehension about any change in shareholding.

"You've asked the Department of Public Information to add two more areas of focus. One is the issue of Vietnamese boat people in Xiangjiang, and the other is the situation in the Funan battlefield. Tang Huan then assigned another task.

After the end of the Vietnam War, which was marked by the fall of Saigon on April 30, 1975, the problem of Vietnamese boat people in Xiangjiang began to arise.

The first batch of more than 3,700 refugees entered Xiangjiang, and they arrived in Xiangjiang on May 4, 1975 with the Danish-registered freighter "Changchun".

In the years since, refugees have arrived in Hong Kong. In 1979, there were more than 68,700, and in 1980, there were more than 100,000.

In July 1979, the British government signed an international convention in Geneva on the handling of Vietnamese refugees, which included listing Hong Kong as the "first port of refuge".

In other words, refugees who have fled from Vietnam will be accepted by the first port of refuge, and then the refugees who meet the screening criteria will be screened by Western countries for refugee qualifications. They can be transferred to these countries to settle down, and the rest will be repatriated by the government of the first host port on its own.

Due to the British government's request for Hong Kong to become the "first port of refuge". Shifting the responsibility of taking care of refugees to Hong Kong naturally directly increases the burden on the Hong Kong government, for example, to accommodate a Vietnamese refugee, which costs about 12,000 Hong Kong dollars a year.

In the original time and space, until 1998, the cost attributed to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees by the creditor had accumulated to 1.162 billion Hong Kong dollars, and the time for repayment was far away.

The problem of Vietnamese boat people has plagued Hong Kong for 25 years, during which time Hong Kong has taken in a total of 200,000 boat people.

In addition to bringing a heavy burden to the economy and public security, it has also affected the daily life of many Hong Kong people, and this element is frequently added to film and television works, such as "Running to the Angry Sea", which won many important awards at the second Hong Kong Film Awards.

Therefore, Tang Huan mentioned that Zhou Liang Shuyi was not surprised to let Media Asia TV pay attention to the issue of Vietnamese boat people in Xiangjiang, which itself is a focus of the current society, but paying attention to the situation on the battlefield in Funan makes her scratch her head.

"The issue of Vietnamese boat people, Media Asia TV has been paying attention to it, but the situation on the battlefield in Funan is ......" Zhou Liang Shuyi looked at Tang Huan inquiringly, hoping that the boss could explain his intentions.

"Expand your international perspective, just like tracking and reporting on the Falklands War before." Tang Huan smiled slightly, "Media Asia TV can organize a few more war correspondents to enter Funan from Siam, and I will have someone to assist in arranging." ”

"So what kind of effect is it going to achieve?" Zhou Liang Shuyi pointed to the core and asked.

"Can Hong Kong people be made aware that the changes in the situation on the battlefield in Funan may affect the refugee issue, or can they simply be related to their own interests?" Tang Huan asked rhetorically.

"This boss's idea is really fanciful." Zhou Liang Shuyi, who muttered in her heart, frowned and thought about it.

……

As early as 1851, Melbourne was accompanied by the gold rush, and Chinatown appeared, and it continues to this day, it is the first Chinatown in Australia.

As director Wang Jing said before, the crew of "God of Gamblers" came here to do publicity, it was just a cutscene, and the rewarding vacation was real, and everyone quickly completed the task, and then played happily, and occasionally cooperated with the film crew of Media Asia TV to shoot some tidbits.

Koalas, kangaroos, alpacas...... and other unique cute animals, coupled with the beautiful scenery of Melbourne, made Zhong Chuhong's accumulated work fatigue for a year disappear at once.

This Christmas in the southern hemisphere has made everyone, including Zhong Chuhong, full of praise, and even sighed, "It would be good if I could come here to retire in the future." ”

Zhong Chuhong was sorting out the special gifts he bought in the hotel, and Wang Jing called, "Ah Hong, Tang Sheng invited us to surf, and I will wait for you in the lobby." ”

……

To a certain extent, the West's enthusiasm for sailing reflects their sense of sea power, which is not something that a nation that has operated peacefully for thousands of years on the geographically closed eastern continent can deeply understand.

Among the many international competitions, the AmericasCup is the most famous and oldest preserved sporting event, dating back to August 22, 1851.

At that time, the Americas, a sailing ship representing the New York Yacht Club Consortium, and 15 sailing boats representing the Royal Yacht Fleet raced near the Isle of Wight in the south of England.

In the end, Ama won by 20 minutes.

After such a blow to British maritime supremacy, which was recognized as invincible in those days, a series of British consortiums tried to win back the trophy.

But in more than 132 years of 25 challenges, the New York Yacht Club miraculously remains undefeated, making it the longest winning streak in sporting history.

However, this year, that record was broken, and Australia, as the challenger, won the final victory, which immediately caused a sensation. The momentum of sailing in Australia has risen all of a sudden.

Ted. Turner pulled Tang Huan to enjoy the race, which began in 1945 with the Sydney-Hobart Regatta, a summer Christmas tradition.

Tang Huan has been Ted. Turner, a master of abduction, is very obsessed with this kind of sea sports, cruising freely in the waves, and has a special pride in his chest, especially with a beautiful woman by his side.

At this time, Zhong Chuhong's delicate body was leaning on Tang Huan's arms, and the two of them worked together to control a windsurfing board and dance with the waves.

After a wave hit the two of them, Zhong Chuhong shrank and said, "I'm tired." ”

"What are you saying, be louder, I can't hear clearly." Tang Huan shouted.

"I said ......" Zhong Chuhong turned his head, but was suddenly gagged by Tang Huan.

……

After holding Zhong Chuhong, who was delicate and weak, came ashore, Ted. Turner exclaimed, "It's good to be young, you have endless physical strength, and you recover quickly." ”

"What, you feel old?" Tang Huan joked while placing Zhong Chuhong well.

"Who can compare with you, a genius who has not yet reached 30 years old, I am 45 years old this year, and I am compared to old all of a sudden." Ted. Turner smiled and shook his head.

"Time flies so fast, in another year, I, Jobs, and Gates will be almost 30 years old." Tang Huan said with emotion.

Hearing this, Ted. Turner had a thoughtful look on his face.

When Guy Tang Huan entered the United States, whether his age was fraudulent or not has always been an inconclusive question, and he was even attacked as a target by people with intentions, but there was no evidence, and in the end, it was over.

Tang Huan's unintentional words just now seemed to reveal a kind of mystery......

At this time, the subordinates came running with binoculars to report that the sailing boats participating in the race had entered the last 10 kilometers.

Tang Huan and Ted. Turner jumped to his feet, grabbed his binoculars, and searched for the yacht he had financed.

"I saw our ship and is currently in the lead." Tang Huan shouted with fluttering eyebrows.

"Where?" Ted didn't find his target for a while. Turner, anxious.

"This direction......" Tang Huan pointed carefully.

"Well done." After confirming the vantage point of his own sailboat, Ted. Turner was equally smiling, "Looks like we can get another trophy." ”

The two men were happily discussing how to celebrate the achievement for a while, when one of his subordinates suddenly shouted out in a lost voice: "Boss, our ship has been overturned......" (To be continued. )
