After almost two weeks in Hollywood, Li Mingbao's affairs are over, and he can't wait until "The True Color of Heroes" is released in Hollywood, because there are also many things to do in Hong Kong, and the film is almost at the end of the screening.
By this time, the total box office revenue of the movie "The True Color of Heroes" in Hong Kong has reached a height of more than 56 million Hong Kong dollars, and I believe that at the end of the day, it will not be a problem to break through the box office of 60 million Hong Kong dollars.
And after Li Mingbao's movie was made, Li Mingbao completely established the title of Hong Kong film master. There is no way not to lay the foundation, Li Mingbao has shot a total of three movies in Hong Kong, but just these three movies occupy the top three at the box office of Hong Kong's historical films. If such a person can't be called a film master, then what kind of person can be called a film master?
Of course, Hong Kong people do not have no objection to this title, and the reason for opposition is also sufficient, that is, none of the three films shot by Li Mingbao was directed by Li Mingbao. If you are not a director, why can you be called a master of film?
On this topic, the Hong Kong side has been arguing for several days. But in the end, it didn't work, because Li Mingbao, the party, was not in Hong Kong at all, even if they quarreled with a flower, Li Mingbao didn't respond, it was like the emperor was not in a hurry, and the eunuch was in a hurry, and he had an inexplicable sense of joy.
Li Mingbao wants the title of this film master to be used as a bird, just like Uncle Six, everyone knows that many of the films he shoots are bad movies, but who can deny that Uncle Six is the uncrowned king of the Hong Kong film industry?
Of course, it doesn't mean that it's completely useless, at least in the current situation where Li Mingbao has a shallow foundation, having such a title can somewhat make Hong Kong people understand that Li Mingbao is not an outsider. At least not like Boss Lei, although he is a big man in the film industry, no one will think that Boss Lei is an insider.
There was obviously nothing to deal with on the Hollywood side, so Li Mingbao took his people back to Hong Kong on a private jet obtained by Yuntong.
When he returned to Hong Kong this time, Li Mingbao did not immediately convert the money he got from John into Hong Kong dollars, but deposited them directly into Standard Chartered Bank in US dollars. Li Mingbao is not short of Hong Kong dollars now, although the box office of the movie "The True Color of Heroes" has not yet begun to be shared, but Li Mingbao's share can be seen no matter how you look at it, the daily use, Li Mingbao's previous money is still enough, even if it is not enough, there are still some funds in other industries in the family, how can they stick to it.
Therefore, Li Mingbao did not immediately convert this dollar into Hong Kong dollars, because Li Mingbao was still waiting for an opportunity to wait for the Hong Kong dollar to fall sharply. As a person familiar with history, Li Mingbao missed the opportunity of the Falklands naval battle before, and it is really unforgivable to miss the opportunity of the Hong Kong dollar to fall again.
After returning to Hong Kong, Li Mingbao has not been idle, although many things have to wait for opportunities, but opportunities are usually reserved for those who are prepared, although Li Mingbao himself is ready, but it does not mean that his own people are also ready, taking advantage of the wind of the Hong Kong dollar plummeting, Li Mingbao not only wants to set up his own team, but also needs to give his family a long-term plan.
So as soon as he came back, Li Mingbao immediately called all the family members over for a meeting.
The current Li family is no longer as hard as it was a few years ago, and life is much better, whether it is his father or Li Mingbao's generation, they have begun to mix. Although other people are not as good as Li Mingbao, they also have the feeling of success and fame. Especially Big Brother.
Originally, the eldest brother was cultivated as the head of the family, but in the past, the situation of the Li family was just such a tea restaurant, even if the eldest brother had great ability, it was useless. And now the barbecue is in full bloom in Hong Kong, and the eldest brother has his own use.
Although the plate is not as big as Li Mingbao's, and the money is not as much as Li Mingbao's earnings, the eldest brother's talent can also be wielded.
In the villa, sitting in the main seat is Li Guangxin, as the elder of the current family, although the juniors are up now, but the elders have not yet reached the time of retirement. In the past, the family business could not support everyone's efforts, but the current family business just needs everyone's joint efforts. Although the eldest brother is in charge of the family's catering industry, he still has the overall grasp of his father Li Guangxin and his aunt Yang Qing.
As for Li Mingbao's biological mother, as a second mother, she doesn't like to show her face, although she is also very talented, she doesn't like to dictate things at home, so she asks Yang Qing for help in many things.
Although Li Mingbao is now the richest person in the family, in front of his father, Li Mingbao does not dare to be presumptuous. Before this gathering, Li Mingbao didn't say what he thought, but now that everyone is here, Li Mingbao spoke first.
"This time I went to Hollywood to do business, and things went very smoothly, but the tax deduction was a bit much. Fortunately, they didn't take too much advantage of the other side, and the taxes that were deducted allowed me to buy things from the United States, and then the counter-taxes offset most of them, and in the end they actually received what they had in their hands, in fact, it was only a few million dollars. ”
"It's only a few million dollars, that's a lot of money. Converted to Hong Kong dollars, it is tens of millions, that is, you kid don't think it's much, but this time you have gained a lot, right? Although Li Guangxin didn't know much about what Li Mingbao did in Hollywood, he heard that Li Mingbao paid so much just to pay taxes, where can he have less income?
"The total income this time is $360 million, and after deducting taxes and money spent, I brought a full $300 million to Hong Kong. Of course, I haven't converted this money into Hong Kong dollars yet, and it's all in Standard Chartered Bank. Li Mingbao opened his mouth to explain.
"$360 million, doesn't that mean you spent $60 million?" The eldest brother Li Mingyao asked suddenly.
"It's not okay if you don't spend so much, big brother, you also know the situation in the United States, these are all things that I saved after finding the most professional lawyer team to operate. Otherwise, I would have to pay more than $100 million in taxes.
Fortunately, in addition to the money I really handed over, I used the rest of the money in the United States, exhibited the company over there, and bought a yacht beach villa, as well as a private jet, and when I traveled in the future, my eldest brother could use a private jet. Of course, this will have to wait a year, because the construction of the aircraft has not been long ago. Li Mingbao thought about the money spent over there, and he also felt painful, but it couldn't be spent without that money.
Hearing Li Mingbao's explanation, the rest of the Li family is not a frog at the bottom of the well, so they also understand that Li Mingbao is forced to do so, otherwise, if the money can really be returned, Li Mingbao will want it more than them. Buying some American properties is not urgently needed for the current Li family. With Li Mingbao's brain, it is impossible not to see this.
"The money is spent and spent, it's not a big deal. Anyway, you got back 300 million dollars this time, so much money, what you want to do, it's enough. Even if Uncle Shao Liu, he may not have so much money. Looks like you kid wants to make a big deal. Li Guangxin said with a smile.
Don't blame him for being happy, it's really his son who was not worried before, but now he is really promising, not only in Hong Kong, but also in Hollywood, with such a good son, what else can he not be satisfied with?
"It's going to be a big deal, but not now, it's a year from now. Although I have money now, I still need to hibernate, and I will have a big harvest in the future by doing all the preparations first. Li Mingbao nodded and said.
"A year later, a year later, you can also see things clearly?" Li Guangxin asked in surprise.
"I can't see it clearly, but I understand it in general. Although the British want to have Hong Kong all the time, the problem is that with their strength, it is impossible to do it at all, so there is only one way for Hong Kong to go in the future, and that is to return.
It was so difficult for the British to fight with a small country like Argentina this year, and although they won in the end, there was also a lot of luck. Such a weak country, if it wants to make itself look less weak, must get back face from other countries.
But if you want to get back face, it's not so easy, and the British are not idiots, they will make enemies on all sides. Argentina is obviously soft, and it can't afford to make any waves, and no matter how much it bullies others, it doesn't have much benefit. In addition, the British are not the sun setting now, bullying people with weapons, and he himself does not have much reserves.
In such a situation, the British can only rely on politics to achieve their goals. If you want others to see that you are strong, you must have a reason, the United States is a big man, Britain obviously can't get it, and France and Britain are already half-hearted, and it is very difficult to take advantage of them, and there will even be a crisis of a big war. As for the polar bears, the British are even more unlikely to fight alone, and if they provoke the woolly bears, they will only die faster.
After all, there is only one country that Britain can make up its mind, and there is only this country, and if it really gets into trouble, there are remedial measures, plus taking advantage of the situation, the British will not have too many problems. ”
"You mean, Big 6?" Speaking of this, Li Guangxin's face became stern, not only Li Guangxin, but also the rest of the Li family, because now we are talking about everyone's motherland, as a real descendant of Yan and Huang, there is no one who does not want his country to be strong.
"That's right, it's the big 6. The British want to show their muscles, and the most likely difficulty is to play against the big 6. Of course, they will not be able to fight, but they will definitely solve the problem by means of politics. After all, they are now the victorious nation, although this victorious nation is actually largely based on luck.
But if you can rely on luck and means to bluff the big 6, for the British, you can get both fame and practical benefits. Li Mingbao also said sternly.
