Chapter 183 - First General Meeting of Shareholders (2nd Update)
The reason why the-stirring sticks have been able to survive so many years is that the diplomatic problems are absolutely clear, and they can still play some small tricks against the country, but for religion, they will never underestimate it, or mess around, unless it is that kind of hostile relationship, or they will be very cautious when encountering religious problems.
It's like Ah San's Hinduism, they respect it very much, of course, it is not ruled out that they have other thoughts, but for Hinduism, they are real Indians who want to play, they let Ah San play how they want, as long as you don't play in our other places and there is a big problem with this set, I will ignore it.
And this time Li Mingbao wrote about the flood wilderness, it involves too many problems, some of the previous small means will naturally have to be withdrawn, if anything goes wrong with Li Mingbao during the writing of this book, Li Mingbao is easy to solve, but other places, it is not so easy to solve. So hurriedly sent a sweet date over, and it should be given this matter.
Although Li Mingbao knew that the British government in Hong Kong would not be a good bird, if he didn't eat the peaches delivered to his mouth, he would really not be in the limelight. Against the government, Li Mingbao really doesn't have that ability, so it's best to be able to go over, and everyone can look good.
Since a flood famine has involved so many forces, so that other people have no heart to play tricks on themselves, then Li Mingbao also began to deal with his own affairs with peace of mind.
First of all, there is the problem of the theater chain, this thing has been done, it can be said that Li Mingbao has worked hard for several years, and now when he needs to make great efforts to ensure his status, Li Mingbao naturally has to care.
So as soon as the trouble was solved, Li Mingbao called the sixth uncle and them to discuss the matter of the first shareholders' meeting of the United Cinema Line. The integration of the cinema chain is not an easy thing, and there are a lot of things to do, such things as changing equipment can be done with money, but the management of the joint cinema chain is to establish a leading position at the beginning.
Although Shaw Brothers Cinemas was acquired by Li Mingbao, there will not be too many problems on the Shaw Brothers Cinemas side. After all, this is a career taken over from the sixth uncle, and it already has a firm mark of the sixth uncle, plus the sixth uncle still holds the shares of the United Cinema Line, Li Mingbao can't just get everyone down in one go, and then replace it with his own people, so it is not easy to explain to the sixth uncle.
But if you don't change it, Li Mingbao really doesn't think that he can firmly grasp the theater in his own hands, there are a lot of arrogant soldiers on the sixth uncle's side, and when the time comes, Li Mingbao will lose a lot of money. But how to change it is a big question.
If you want the theater chain to be smooth and excessive, it is necessary to replace people, but the replacement cannot mess up the operation of the theater. After all, at this time, it was not Li Mingbao who integrated the Shaw Brothers Cinema Line, but the United Cinema Line, and if there were too many hands, the Shaw Brothers Cinema Line would be paralyzed first.
The name of this cinema is now his own, if he makes a mess of his own cinema, then Jiahe and Princess Jin, who are merged into the United Cinema Line, will have something to say. They were not very willing to hand over the theater chain, but now if they want to catch Li Mingbao who can't manage the theater line, then they will take care of themselves, and it will definitely not be a topic that they can't talk about.
If such a situation really occurs, although Li Mingbao has integrated a joint theater chain, in fact, this theater chain is its own master, nominally unified, but in practice, it is not so unified. Now that this root has been left, who knows what will happen in the future? Today they will be attached to the banner of United Cinemas because of the general trend, and tomorrow they will also withdraw from the United Cinemas because of the general trend.
That kind of joint cinema chain is just a name, and the actual effect may be better than the cooperation of three cinema chains. If it's not a monolith, how can it withstand the storms of the future? Therefore, as the foundation of the United Cinema Line, it must not be chaotic, if it is chaotic, any plan by Li Mingbao in the future will be a utopia. Only by laying a solid foundation for the United Cinema Line and letting everyone follow their own hearts can they go on a long voyage.
Regarding the matter of the shareholders' meeting, in fact, the sixth uncle has been prepared for a long time, and even those overseas film companies have sent their own representatives. You know, it's not easy to get overseas film companies to send representatives, although they own 5% of the shares of United Cinemas, but they have a lot of people, and everyone wants to show their faces at the first shareholders' meeting, so although this position is just a microphone for them, this microphone has a lot of weight, and no one wants to let it, and it took a long time to argue before finally determining the quota.
But when the quota was decided, Li Mingbao was being bombarded by the Hong Kong press, where could he have the time to come out and hold a shareholders' meeting for everyone. And if the first shareholders' meeting did not have Li Mingbao, a major shareholder, how could this meeting be held well?
After all, the United Cinema Line was originally planned by Li Mingbao, whether it was Sixth Uncle or Zou Wenhuai, or Lei Juekun, they really wanted to count it, they were just passive participants. How exactly should this theater be planned, if Li Mingbao didn't speak, who knows what kind of mess will come out in the end?
Therefore, Li Mingbao does not hold a shareholders' meeting, and others can't hold it even if they want to. And now that Li Mingbao's trouble has been solved, the shareholders' meeting will naturally be held as much as possible. At this time, everyone doesn't care about choosing what good day and auspicious day, anyway, it's already very good to be able to do things well, so many people's interests need to be arranged, so much content needs to be sorted out, and it is definitely a waste of time to choose what good day and auspicious day to choose.
So the business community here in Hong Kong, sometimes it's very strange, everyone is a trade in feng shui. There are often big things, so I have to let Mr. Feng Shui see if the time is right, and I would rather wait for ten days and half a month than do it first without looking at the day.
But if things are urgent and complicated. Just like United Cinemas, if they can solve the problem one day earlier, they will never listen to Mr. Feng Shui, no matter how Mr. Feng Shui proves that this day is not good, what will happen in the future, these Hong Kong bigwigs pretend not to hear. At best, if there is really a problem and trouble in the future, I will say an afterthought, if I had listened to so-and-so, maybe it wouldn't be like this now.
From this, we can draw a very sad conclusion, that is, these bigwigs don't really believe in Feng Shui that much. The reason why he attaches great importance to the masters is just to curry favor with him. As for how to do the actual thing, it really has nothing to do with the feng shui gentlemen.
And the Hong Kong feng shui world is actually very realistic, so they usually encounter such a situation, even if they deduce that this day is not so good in feng shui, then they have to smile and say to these bigwigs that today's day is absolutely suitable. You can do whatever you want, and you don't have to think about anything else. As for whether this is true or false, both sides are tacit.
Feng Shui is also a business, and if you are not tactful, the business will definitely not be good, and the feng shui masters in Hong Kong are actually not too bad in business.
As a result, Li Mingbao called the sixth uncle on the first day, and the sixth uncle said that it would be okay to hold a shareholders' meeting the next day, anyway, the personnel had already been prepared, just waiting for Li Mingbao, the major shareholder, to appear, otherwise, they would have started to do what they should have done a long time ago, where could it be delayed for more than a month?
At this time, the time in Hong Kong has come to November, and the 82 years are almost over. The Sino-British negotiations continued, but the newspapers in Hong Kong did not discuss this issue too much, and with Li Mingbao's involvement, the newspapers had to put aside any political affairs and turn to report the news about the flood famine.
The press, which had previously kept saying that this was related to the future of Hong Kong, has not been mentioned by anyone now, and even if it is mentioned, it is television. In newspapers, such so-called matters related to the fate of Hong Kong people can only be found on the second page.
This point is no exception even Ming Pao, no way, after all, this news has been going back and forth for too long, since the middle of the year, we have been talking about it, and there is no too clear result when it comes to now, although a lot of memoranda has been signed, but everyone is grinding their teeth, maybe these memoranda has just been done today, and tomorrow it will have to be overturned.
Originally, it was normal for such news to be reported in the Ming Pao, and it was not too much to make a front-page feature. But as soon as the flood of people named Li Mingbao appeared, it immediately attracted the attention of countless people, and today it was the government of this country to send an official letter, and tomorrow it was a world-renowned religious figure who came to visit Mingbao.
Compared with the content of those ridiculous negotiations, the appearance of these bigwigs is the first-hand information of Ming Pao. After all, Hong Huang's book is from Ming Pao's side, and Jin Yong is still everyone's contact, it is not easy for other people to get such an exclusivity, but when it comes to Jin Yong's side, it is rich in resources.
As the helmsman of a newspaper, he naturally knows the gap between scoop news and mass news, and now there are such good conditions, if he doesn't do a good job of scooping, his decades of newspaper experience will be in vain. Therefore, even such a major event as the Sino-British negotiations does not occupy much space on the side of Ming Pao, unless it is important news, otherwise it is difficult to even go up to the second page. So Ming Pao has been out of the limelight lately.
Although Jin Yong is busy, it is also a great sense of accomplishment to see so many exclusives going out from his own Ming Pao. As a result, Jin Yong talked to Li Mingbao on the phone every day and said that he was too busy, and Li Minghu was tired of the old man, but he turned his head and began to contact those who came to Mingbao energetically, painfully and happily, which was Jin Yong's situation.
