Volume 1 Chapter 162 The Fish and the Bear's Paw
Out of Qiu Degen's office, Lin Xiaozhi stood in front of the door for a while before calming down the churning in his chest, sighed and walked to Xinya's office.
As soon as he turned the corner, he was about to go down the floor, and suddenly saw Lin Jianming standing on the stairs, standing with his back against the stairs, smoking there as if he was waiting for someone. At his feet, there were already six or seven cigarette butts.
"Uncle Ming......"
Lin Xiaozhi is not stupid, and he knows that he must be waiting for himself when he guesses.
Sure enough, as soon as he opened his mouth, Lin Jianming looked up and saw a smile on his face, "Azhi, do you have time, let's have two drinks at noon?" ”
As soon as he got off the plane, Lin Xiaozhi didn't want to drink anything, but Lin Jianming rarely invited him, and he couldn't refuse. Nodding in agreement, "I'll send the things back first, Uncle Ming will wait for me for a few minutes"
"Okay, I'll go to the underground parking lot later, I'll wait for you there"
"Row"
Lin Xiaozhi returned to the office, took out the document bag that Qiu Degen gave him before, and took it out to see that it was indeed an equity transfer letter. Only then did he put it in the drawer and lock it with satisfaction, and was ready to take the time to sign it tomorrow and take it to the notarization, so that he could hold Xinya in his hand earlier, so that he could rest assured.
Qiu Degen's description of several theaters under his name as tattered is also appropriate. Lin Xiaozhi has been to those theaters, either in the style of 60 years, or built in the 70s, all of which were rebuilt from old theaters, and there is only one screening hall in a theater, which is estimated to be about seventy or eighty to one hundred, and the equipment investment is probably only three or four hundred thousand, and the equipment maintenance alone is a lot of expenses every year, and it is appropriate to say that it is a gift.
He once asked people to inquire, and in the past two years, he wants to build a 100-seat theater, with an investment of about 700,000 screen seats for decoration). The total investment cost of a 4-hall cinema is about P00,000, and the investment cost of an 8-hall cinema is about 5 million.
"Assistant Wu......"
Just took his mobile phone and walked out of the office, ready to go to Lin Jianming's invitation, and happened to meet Assistant Wu passing by his office door with a pile of documents, Lin Xiaozhi stopped her at the moment: "You have already called Producer Ye just now, right?" ”
"It's already been beaten"
Lin Xiaozhi nodded, but he didn't expect her speed to be so fast.
He pondered for a moment before saying, "Go get busy."
With his understanding of Ye Weixin, he has been bored at home for so long to recuperate, and now that he is almost good, he can't help but want to see him and ask the company if there are any new movies arranged for him. Lin Xiaozhi also got along with him for two months in the crew of "Color is Empty", and his temperament can be regarded as touching one or two points.
Out of the New Asia office, Lin Xiaozhi did not go straight to the elevator, but chose the cheaper stairs next to him and walked to the underground parking lot below.
For Ye Weixin, Lin Xiaozhi felt a little guilty. It's not just because he chose to deal with the incident coldly after he was assassinated in order to avoid confronting Wan An at that time, so that the gangsters who caused him serious injuries are still at large. There is another reason that makes him feel a little guilty about Ye Weixin. "Color is Empty" quickly became popular after its release, and his Lin Xiaozhi's name gradually rose in the hype and leap at the box office, and it is not false to say that he robbed Ye Weixin of the scenery.
After thinking about it, he still decided to give Ye Weixin a call, "Hey"
A phone call was made directly to Ye Weixin's home, but the person who answered the phone was not him, but his father.
"Hello Uncle Ye, I'm Lin Xiaozhi."
"It turned out to be Mr. Lin, hello, hello...... You're looking for a letter, right? ”
"Yes"
"It's really not a coincidence, he just went to the hospital for a post-examination after the most deluctant, is there something wrong with you?"
"It's nothing, then Uncle Ye, you tell Ashin, if he is in good health, he will go back to the company the day after tomorrow, it just so happens that I still have some work on my hands and need his help"
"Good"
Hanging up the phone, Lin Xiaozhi let out a sigh of relief, seeing that he was almost in the underground parking lot, he walked a few steps quickly, and saw Lin Jianming standing next to the car from afar, and greeted him.
“…… Achi, how did you explain how Uncle treated you? ”
Saigon seafood street, Lin Xiaozhi followed behind Lin Jianming, entered a seafood restaurant that he seemed to come to often, and the two of them exchanged a few glasses of wine in the private room.
"Uncle Ming, what are you talking about?"
Lin Xiaozhi answered quietly, he still didn't understand what Lin Jianming meant.
Lin Jianming poured him a glass of wine, and stared at him with straight eyes: "A few days ago, I took over the finance department of ATV, and I had contact with a person named Wang Jia'an, and I also heard some rumors within ATV, saying that your relationship with Ah Le is a little tense......"
"Hehe, Uncle Ming...... Eat vegetables and eat vegetables......"
He snorted, and his heart spun rapidly. Lin Jianming suddenly mentioned this matter, and he couldn't figure out what medicine he was selling in his gourd for a while. Just as Lin Jianming inquired about his situation, Lin Xiaozhi also inquired about the two brothers. It is said that the relationship between his two cousins is much worse than that between him and his brother Lin Xiaoyi, in order to compete for Lin Baixin's family property, especially the Lai Sun Group, the two brothers sent the white knife into the red knife.
Why did Lin Jianming suddenly mention this at this time? Lin Xiaozhi was puzzled
Just when he was puzzled, he suddenly reasoned about the current situation of the two brothers, Lin Jianle and Lin Jianming, and his heart moved.
Don't
Lin Xiaozhi's mind suddenly became active, if it was really as he thought. Well, things are getting more and more fun.
Originally, he was worried that after Qiu Degen left, he and Xinya would lose the opportunity to continue to pull the tiger skin of ATV. But now...... He glanced at Lin Jianming, who was staring at him, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he already had a plan in his heart.
"Uncle Ming, I don't know where I made Uncle Le unhappy...... Probably because I didn't do enough in New Asia......"
Set up a piece of braised crucian carp and took a bite, Lin Xiaozhi had a plan in his heart, and began to quietly test Lin Jianming's tone, "As Uncle Ming said, when he was on ATV, the two of us rarely said hello when we met."
Lin Jianming was still a little unhappy in his heart, but when he heard that he finally spoke, he was overjoyed, and the reluctant smile on his face was also a lot more real, and he raised his wine glass with a smile and touched it, saying: "Ah Le is that kind of character, and he was spoiled by my father and Erniang when he was a child." Dad's expectations for him are too high, and you have been doing so well recently, and Dad often mentions you in front of us, urging the two of us to learn from you. Hehe, is Ah Le still young after all? He is also obsessed with how old you are, how can you tolerate others at this age to say that he is inferior to anyone in front of him all the time......"
As soon as the two of them were finished, Lin Xiaozhi saw that he was clearly speaking for Lin Jianle, but he said that he was not, and he became more and more sure of what he thought in his heart, and his head turned as strongly as an eight-cylinder engine, thinking about how he could get the most benefit from it.
"Don't talk about him, it's rare to have a few drinks with Uncle Ming today. If you want me to say, Uncle Nine asked Uncle Ming to come to ATV, which is the most correct decision. When it comes to management, Uncle Ming, you have the true biography of Uncle Jiu, and managing a TV station is not handy, Uncle Le made the mistake of being too young, if Uncle Jiu handed over the TV station to you at that time, where would there be so many twists and turns"
Three points of drunkenness, seven points of pretend, Lin Xiaozhi half-truths and half-truths said such a pleasing word, but Lin Jianming took a sip, and the smile on his face became brighter and brighter when he heard it, and he even poured a few glasses of wine and did not refuse to drink them all, but after a few glasses of wine, his face was already full of alcohol, and his age was no younger than Lin Xiaozhi. But thanks to these glasses of wine, he began to hook up with Lin Xiaozhi, and seemed to have forgotten his predecessor and identity, and poured bitter water with him.
“…… The old man is eccentric, I have no credit and hard work in the Lai Sun Group for so many years, but he is good, just because Ah Le is in ATV in a bad situation, he rushed me to ATV to wipe his ass...... It took me a few months to reassure ATV's management, and the transfer of power was finally completed. But a few nights ago, Ah Le asked him to transfer him back to ATV during dinner, and he completely forgot Ah Le's previous mistakes. Am I not doing as well as him, and asked me yesterday if I want him to come back and continue to serve as a director...... Hehe, a month ago, I asked the old man for the president of ATV, and he always said that he couldn't give it to me until the end of the year, and I wanted to see that he didn't want to give it to me at all, so he kept it for Ah Le......"
Lin Jianle is coming back
Lin Xiaozhi frowned, this is not good news.
"Uncle Ming...... Don't be surprised if I say something unpleasant," Lin Xiaozhi said: "Grandma has been away from Uncle Jiu for so long, even if she is the original partner, the love between husband and wife over the years has almost been scattered, what is the difference between her and strangers." Although you are the eldest son of the long house, you can't compare to Uncle Le, and his mother and son have always lived with Uncle Jiu.
"yes"
Lin Jianming also did not deny that since his mother separated from Lin Baixin, she could only meet him once or twice a year over the years, where is there any husband and wife relationship. Picking up the wine glass and taking another glass of wine, he looked depressed: "The third brother also advised me not to be angry with the old man, he wants Ah Le to return to ATV, just go back, persuade me to leave ATV and continue to return to Lixin ......"
"Don't"
Lin Xiaozhi's face changed, and he decisively interrupted him, "Uncle Ming, who is your third brother?" How can such a foolish thing be said? ”
The ninth uncle Lin Baixin only has two sons and two daughters, this Lin Xiaozhi has inquired, he doesn't know when Lin Jianming will have another third brother.
"Third brother?" Lin Jianming was shocked by his drink, and replied: "You mean Ah Kang, he is the youngest son of the uncle, born in the same year as you, much younger than me and your father." Uncle had a depressed life in his old age, after he died, your ninth uncle ignored his past suspicions and let him succeed him as a righteous son, this was last month, and your father also came......"
I see, last month his relationship with his family was a bad thing. I haven't been home for almost a month, so it's no wonder I don't know about it. But immediately, Lin Xiaozhi's heart moved, and he said: "Uncle Ming, I advise you to stay away from the third uncle in the future, he advises you to give up ATV and return to Lixin, either faint or deliberately harm you."
"What?" Lin Jianming was taken aback, put down the wine glass he had just picked up, and stared at him with a serious face, "Ah Zhi, my old man has always said that you are smart and can do things." Tell Uncle Ming about ......"
There is no need for him to say it, Lin Xiaozhi will also give him advice.
"Uncle Ming, who is Uncle Jiu's favorite now, it is Uncle Le, I will say something unpleasant after a hundred years, there is Baozhu Mother-in-law, who do you think will inherit the Lai Sun Group in the will?"
Lin Jianming's face was ugly, "...... Before the new listing the year before last, my father divided his 18 shares into four shares under the pretext that the Hong Kong Stock Exchange required a few more shareholders, and I got it with my two younger sisters, and Erniang got 13. The remainder of 75 was used to reward the management of Lai Sun...... If the old man is really gone......"
He didn't speak with a gloomy face, yes, he had known a long time ago that his father Lin Baixin was transferring his family property to Lin Jianle's mother and son little by little. Once Lin Baixin is a hundred years later, it is likely that his net worth of 10 billion yuan will be inherited by Lin Jianle's mother and son. But Chaoshan people attach great importance to the status of the eldest son of the long house, and he Lin Jianming is Lin Baixin's eldest son, so he is not reconciled, and he still has a little expectation for the old man. He worked hard in Lixin, and he was driven by his side, just for that little possibility, but now, Lin Xiaozhi slapped him in the face, making him have to understand one thing.
He, Lin Jianming, may really lose to Lin Jianle's mother and son.
“…… Yes, the people who will inherit the Lai Sun Group will be Uncle Le's mother and son. Uncle Ming, wake up, for the sake of that two-percent chance, as for it? Lin Xiaozhi poured himself a glass of wine and drank it all. Compared with Lin Jianming, he Lin Xiaozhi is much more resolute. Although the Jiulong Lin family is not as much as his super-rich Uncle Jiu, who has a net worth of 10 billion, Lin Jili and Lin Jiannian still have hundreds of millions of assets.
Isn't Lin Xiaozhi impressed? How is it possible, but Lin Xiaozhi knows better, the person who will inherit it will never be him, because in front of him, there is a big brother Lin Xiaoyi who performs better.
Therefore, he decisively gave up those conjectures, and expressed to the old man and his cheap father on many occasions early in the morning that he would not compete with the eldest brother for the family property. It is this kind of resolute attitude that now Lin Xiaozhi has enjoyed a lot of benefits. Not to mention that his relationship with Lin Xiaoyi has gradually improved, and a villa worth tens of millions that is regarded as the core property of the Lin family has now been transferred to his name. In the future, the old man will be a hundred years old, more or less, he will still be able to get a little more things, but it is much better than Lin Jianming who has not eaten anything now, just waiting and watching.
"You can't have both fish and bear's paws, now Lai Sun Group is a big bear's paw, not only tempting and delicious enough, but also expensive, you want to eat but others also want to eat, you have to rely on strength and influence to fight for your life. In comparison, ATV is now a fish, because it is small and not as valuable as a bear's paw, so no one can look down on it now, but it is still alive and can continue to grow and fat. Uncle Ming, you are still the eldest son of Uncle Jiu, and your blood is thicker than water. If you are interested in inheriting ATV, Uncle Nine will consider giving you the ATV shares in his hand. Now ATV is really worthless, and Uncle Jiu and Zheng Yutong spent more than 700 million yuan before and after to buy more than two-thirds of ATV's shares. If you do the math, the shares in the hands of Uncle Jiu are only worth three or four hundred million...... However, Uncle Nine is still in contact with Dong Qiu, wanting to buy all the shares in his hands, when Uncle Le had an accident before, the Zheng family was also obstructing behind his back, if I guessed correctly, after Uncle Nine became the owner of ATV, the first thing was to buy the shares of the Zheng family, and at that time, it would be an asset worth more than one billion......
His eyes flickered a little, and Lin Xiaozhi still kept tempting him, "Moreover, do you think ATV is really only worth this money?" Shao Daheng's wireless is worth tens of billions, and even if ATV is not good, as long as Uncle Jiu allocates hundreds of millions for development, it is not worse than one or two billion. Uncle Ming, although the fat meat of Lixin Group is delicious, the meat in the stomach is your own, just looking at the beauty and smelling the fragrance, if you can't eat it, it will still be someone else's after all."
Lin Jianming's heart was pounding when he said it, and his breathing became short, and when he saw him stop, he hurriedly asked, "Ah Zhi, you have to give me an idea." You mean, let me stick to ATV? Don't go back to Lixin? But the old man wants to transfer Ah Le back, and he has been delaying handing over the position of president of ATV to me......"
"Uncle Ming"
Lin Xiaozhi raised his spoon and shook a spoonful of shark fin porridge that was already cold and tasteless, he was not used to eating this kind of thing, and it obviously didn't taste good, why did so many rich people like it.
"There is a way that the authorities are obsessed with bystanders, how can I help you come up with any ideas. I just want to remind you, don't forget how Uncle Le was kicked out of ATV in the first place? Uncle Nine hasn't forgotten it, which is why he is not ready to temporarily move the top management of ATV......"
was so little by him, if Lin Jianming hadn't reacted, he would have lived more than Lin Xiaozhi for decades in vain. It dawned on me, "I understand."
As for how much he understood, it is unknown.
The corners of his mouth curved into an arc, Lin Xiaozhi didn't want Lin Jianle, who was not on the right path with him, to come back. Lin Jianming undoubtedly has more appetite for him than he came, at least with Lin Jianming, ATV's banner Xinya can pull for a while longer, until Xinya no longer needs ATV's protection at all.
