Chapter Twenty-Eight: Watch the Show
Su Zhongjie asked Lin Qingxia to call Shaw Brothers Pictures and ask Shaw to meet on the Shaw Brothers set at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Because the government strictly prohibits reporting on live broadcast events, most people in Hong Kong don't know who wears the Monkey King mask, but Su Zhongjie's name can't hide from the elites of high society, Run Run Shaw, as a film and television tycoon, belongs to the elite of the elite, and directly participated in the live broadcast incident, and has a deep understanding of Su Zhongjie's ability. When I received the call, I immediately agreed.
The next morning, Su Zhongjie drove his newly bought Mercedes-Benz car alone, all the way to the vicinity of the Shaw Brothers studio, and saw Fat Tsai Cong standing on the side of the road along the way, and Fat Tsai Cong nodded in his direction seemingly unintentionally. Smiled with satisfaction and continued to drive until he came to the door of the Shaw Brothers set.
Run Run Shaw was already waiting outside, Su Zhongjie was a little flattered, hurriedly got out of the car, and apologized: "Mr. Shao is too polite, I can still be treated so well by my juniors." ”
Run Run Shaw said with a smile: "Mr. Su is a guest from afar, so naturally he should greet him, please come inside." ”
The two walked into the set side by side, came to the living room, exchanged a few words, and Su Zhongjie said: "Mr. Shao, today I have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, I often hear that the Shaw Brothers studio is the largest and best studio in Asia, I want to visit, I don't know if it can be?" ”
Run Run Shaw said with a smile: "Mr. Su is a hero among people, and it is really a shield to visit my studio, and I welcome it." Why don't we go now? ”
"It's not busy, before I go, there is a project for Mr. Shao to see, maybe we can reach a cooperation."
"Oh, there are rumors that Mr. Su has acquired more than 20 theaters and formed a theater chain, and this project will not be related to the theater chain."
"Mr. Shao's eyes are like torches, please see."
Su Zhongjie took out two documents from his bag and handed them over.
Run Run Shaw took it, and found that the first page of the document was a certificate of 2.58 billion deposits issued by HSBC, and his heart sank, and he had a bad feeling. You're not here to see the set, it's like you're here to show off. ”
The total number of Hong Kong theaters is only more than 80, and Su Zhongjie himself wants to have more than 80, and the angry Shaw can't help but be sarcastic.
Su Zhongjie said indifferently: "Mr. Shao, why don't you look at the next document and make a conclusion, maybe we will have the possibility of cooperation." ”
Run Run Shaw opened the second document, his face changed slightly, and then he smiled: "You actually bought the shares of TVB from HSBC, and you want to exchange these shares for my theater chain, you are so confident that I will agree?" ”
Before Su Zhongjie came, he spent a huge amount of money to buy TVB shares through Shen Bi, and HSBC's TVB shares came from Qi Dezun, who in 1954, Qi Dezun bought "Wheelock", which owned more than half of the shares of "Hutchison" foreign bank. In 1964, it acquired Hutchison & Co. in the name of International Investment Limited, and in 1965 it was renamed Hutchison Enterprises Limited. In the 10 years he was in charge, the number of companies controlled by Hutchison has grown from 30 to more than 200, which are closely related to the lives of Hong Kong people. It has also continued to invest in the future of Hong Kong, such as advocating and financing the construction of the Harbour Tunnel and the establishment of Television Broadcasts Limited. In 1975, Hutchison was forced to step down and HSBC took over, including a stake in TVB. Later, Hutchison was resold to Li Ka-shing, and a few years later, Run Run Shaw took control of TVB, acquired this part of the shares, and became the largest shareholder, but now Su Zhongjie has taken the lead.
Run Run Shaw has been plotting TVB for a long time, but he has been suppressed by Li Xiaohe. Su Zhongjie is from the modern era, so he naturally understands this, and he is very confident that as long as Run Run Shaw is a smart person, he will definitely agree.
Run Run Shaw is naturally extremely smart, and he can see it very clearly, if he doesn't agree, the theater chain will be blocked, and Su Zhongjie has TVB shares, so he will inevitably enter the board of directors, and when the time comes, it will be easy to kick him out, and the film and television industry will have no place to stand at that time. If he agrees to swap, he will become the largest shareholder of TVB in one fell swoop, and he will completely control TVB at that time. It's easy to choose.
"I promised to swap, and other than that, my film should have priority in release."
"Yes, but it can only have priority in the original Shaw Brothers Cinema Line, and it will only be given for three years, and then it will compete freely by quality."
"Okay, deal."
The two reached an agreement and immediately initialed the contract, and in the future, they will have their own professionals to do the specific work.
Run Run Shaw teased: "Mr. Su, when the business is done, there is no need to visit the set to shake." ”
Su Zhongjie shook his head and said, "Mr. Shao, you guessed wrong, signing the agreement is just by the way, and visiting the set is the right thing." ”
Run Run Shaw didn't believe this statement, and after thinking about it, maybe visiting the set was fake, but hunting female stars was real, and the rich people were not so good, so he immediately smiled and said: "Okay, let's do the right thing now." ”
Run Run Shaw accompanied Su Zhongjie to the set, which was divided into three parts: commercial administrative area, production area and accommodation area, successfully systematizing the production process of the film, which played an important role in the history of Hong Kong film development and was also the only systematic film production location in the Chinese-speaking world. Deliberately find a beautiful female star to be a guide and comment. The female star is extraordinarily enchanting and speaks flatteringly.
Su Zhongjie didn't know him, but he secretly learned that this female star was named Chu Xiangyun, and she was one of the most popular stars of Shaw Brothers. With the commentary, going deep into the production area, suddenly a fat man in ancient costume ran over with a bundle of knives and guns, and muttered to himself: "******, it's finally done, hurry up and go to the costume street to watch a good show." ”
The fat man ran all the way away, and Su Zhongjie smiled and proposed: "Mr. Shao, Miss Chu, since there is a good show in the costume street, why don't we go and see it too." ”
Run Run Shaw didn't talk to him for the first time, but gave Chu Xiangyun a look, you must know how many kinds of good dramas there are, Li Hanxiang has revealed many inside stories on the Shaw Brothers set from the beginning in 30 years, these insiders are all good shows, but most of them are related to Fengyue, if someone cheats on whom this time, everything will be embarrassing in the past.
Chu Xiangyun obviously understood Run Run Shaw's concerns, thought about it, and found that several pairs of people who loved cheating were not in the costume street, and shook his head slightly.
Run Run Shaw relieved himself and readily agreed, so the three of them turned left and went to the costume street. Before I even entered the street, I heard someone in the street say, 'Oops! Yinyin is here, what's so fragrant, shark fin fried rice! I won't buy it for your cousin again. ”
This sound is naturally one of the top ten **** of Shaw Brothers, Shao Yinyin.
A soft voice said: "He's a little tired from being a stuntman these days, so I'll buy some delicious food to make up for him." Don't say anything, let's go. ”
When the sound was far away, the man said enviously: "What a envy! If only I had such a considerate cousin. ”
Someone laughed and said in an accentuated tone: "Hehe, you really treat them as relatives, someone saw the two kissing secretly, I think they look like "dry" sisters and brothers." ”
Su Zhongjie's eyes lit up and said, "Could this be the good show that the fat man said, let's go, let's go and see." ”
He didn't wait for Run Run Shaw Chu Xiangyun to answer, ran into the street, and chased after Shao Yinyin's back. Run Run Shaw and Chu Xiangyun glanced at each other helplessly, and had to follow closely.
Shao Yinyin came to the door of a small house and whispered, 'Cousin, are you inside, cousin?' ”
Soon there was an angry scolding sound inside, and then a woman in untidy clothes lowered her head and ran out, and then a bearded young man came out scolding, just saw Su Zhongjie in the distance, and was stunned, and then gave Shao Yinyin a slap and scolded angrily: "Stinky ****, you dare to betray me." ”
Shao Yinyin didn't know what was going on at all, covering her face, stupid there.
Su Zhongjie "hugged the grievances" and said: "You personal scumbag, your cousin is kind enough to deliver food, but you are treated like this, isn't no one looking at it?" ”
Run Run Shaw, who had just arrived, thought that this sentence was meant for him, and was about to speak, when he saw a fat man in ancient costume jumping down from the house, it was the fat man he had just met, so he heard him say angrily: "I can't see it, I have long wanted to beat this gangster." ”
This fat man is naturally a fat boy Cong, who was ordered by Su Zhongjie to lurk here and guide this good show.
At the same time, a grim young man turned out of the corner next to him and said solemnly: "I can't see it either." It's better for this kind of scum to die. ”
This cold young man is the center of the devil team, and since he is injected with forbidden drugs to have the strength to surpass the Shaolin disciples, he only has an hour of timeliness. That's why Su Zhongjie went to such great lengths to call for his support.
Run Run Shaw rubbed his eyes, and the fat man jumped off the house, but the books in the corner next to him were not rich, how could he hide people?!
He was amazed, but what happened after that kept him from mouth to mouth for a long time.
That bearded man is undoubtedly Ah Biao, as soon as he saw Su Zhongjie appear, he knew that it was not good, and after beating Shao Yinyin angrily, he immediately shook the warhead and turned around and fled, Shao Run Fu and the others were inexplicably frightened when they saw the warhead, and immediately got out of the way.
Ah Biao rushed over, passed by a shooting site, and a flick of the bullet scared everyone into urine, and the props in their hands fell one after another, and the swords, guns, swords, and halberds were just gone, and the torch fell on the ground and immediately caused a fire.
Su Zhongjie secretly made a gesture, Fat Tsai Cong and the Devil team center understood, Fat Tsai Cong first used light skills to intercept Ah Biao, and then the Devil team center arrived and kicked the flying warhead, and the warhead happened to fall in the fire.
Ah Biao wanted to find the warhead, but he couldn't prevent Fat Boy Cong from hugging him, jumped to a height of four or five meters, and then let go and jumped to the room alone, before Ah Biao understood what was going on, the center of the devil team jumped in front of him, kicked his chest in a row, and flew out dozens of meters away like a cannonball, and was blocked by the building before slowly sliding down with Yin Hong's blood rain.
