Volume 1 Chapter 69 The Counsel Lies in Man

"I'm Crazy for Qing" has brought it a lot of returns, Lin Xiaozhi was not ready to be so anxious to release the new script, according to his original plan, New Asia will usher in a turmoil in the next month or two, and he is likely to become the biggest beneficiary, and he should be fully engaged in this matter.

However, He Fan's inquiry woke him up, if the film company doesn't make movies, it's really not a business. Lin Xiaozhi can't control whether Xinya shoots or not, but his ambition is too great. Not only does he covet Xinya, but even the ATV behind Xinya is hot, and all of this requires money, a lot of money! Therefore, his footsteps cannot be stopped because of a little success now, it is time to prepare a new script.

After reaching a verbal agreement with He Fan, Lin Xiaozhi kept this matter in mind.

After sending He Fan away, Lin Xiaozhi already regretted bringing Ye Yuqing's three daughters with him. When the banquet was more than halfway through, and most of the big stars left, the three girls became the focus of the whole banquet, surrounded by a group of reporters and bees, including some high-level executives of film companies. Lin Xiaozhi just glanced at it from a distance, then turned around with a sneer and left, looking at their forgetful looks, they were obviously caught up in the vanity fair of the entertainment industry and the flattery around them, and they forgot that they were just a rookie who had just stepped into the entertainment industry.

After walking around the hall for a while, Lin Xiaozhi had just given the empty wine glass to a waiter, and was thinking about whether to leave. Suddenly, he heard a rush of footsteps around him, and as soon as he turned around, he saw Zheng Fei panting and running over, panting and saying to him: "Director, Dong Qiu asked me to come to you, they are waiting for you in the room next to them, please come over immediately......"

"Looking for me?"

Lin Xiaozhi was stunned for a moment, and then asked: "Zheng Fei, do you know why Dong Qiu wants to find me?" Also, who are they talking about? ”

Zheng Fei: "Dong Qiu didn't say anything specific, just asked me to find you." As for who they were, I only saw Director Zheng enter the room before, and I don't know if there were other people in the room. ”

"Okay, thank you, Zheng Fei!"

Lin Xiaozhi's eyes flickered, and he patted Zheng Fei's shoulder with a smile and thanked him, but his hand trembled faintly. He probably guessed what Qiu Degen was looking for him to do, and because of this, he was so excited.

It seems that the seeds sown are about to reach the harvest season, and it is worth his hard work in the past few months!

"Bang bang bang!"

Lin Xiaozhi went up to the agreed room under the guidance of Zheng Fei, knocked on the door, pushed the door and walked in.

"Chairman, are you looking for me?"

There were only Qiu Degen and Zheng Zeshi in the room, and Zheng Feihou did not come in outside. Lin Xiaozhi had just walked in when he saw Qiu Degen and Zheng Zeshi walking over together, "Director Zheng is also there!" ”

"Sit...... Halfway through the feast, I couldn't see you in the hall, and I thought you had left. Qiu Degen beckoned him to sit down, and Zheng Zeshi lit a cigarette for himself and smoked silently.

"How could it be, after all, today is the celebration of "Maoshan", Zheng Sheng and their crew are the protagonists, and I don't want to make noise to win guests, so I went to the corner to drink." Lin Xiaozhi replied with a smile, and immediately stared at Qiu Degen, his eyes were bright: "I don't know if Chairman Lu Dao asked me to come over, do you have any orders?" ”

Qiu Degen did not answer him, but glanced at Zheng Zeshi before taking out a folded fax paper from his body and handing it to him.

"The fax just came from London in the afternoon, you can read it first!"

He hesitated for a moment before taking the fax, and the curiosity in his heart grew a little stronger. In just a moment, Lin Xiaozhi clearly saw a variety of complex emotions such as heartache, reluctance and a trace of loss from the face of the old man in front of him, which made him very curious, what was written on this fax?

Opening the newspaper, Lin Xiaozhi frowned. It turned out to be English, his English was not very good in the previous life, let alone in this life, the gentleman's secondary 7 graduation certificate was still obtained by his father with the help of someone, English, a language used in Hong Kong second only to traditional Chinese characters and Cantonese, he could only barely understand a few of them such as 'London', 'ruling', 'ATV', 'failure', 'wireless', ' Sharing', although these combined with the information he directed, it was enough for him to guess the contents of the telegram, but Lin Xiaozhi still wrote it down, and it seemed that he had to find an English teacher for himself to improve his poor English level.

"The London verdict is out? Chairman, what is ATV going to do now? Although he roughly guessed the content on the fax, it was inevitable that he was wrong, and Lin Xiaozhi asked ambiguously.

In Hong Kong, except for a few smugglers from the mainland and Vietnam who have just arrived, basically everyone can speak English, but Qiu Degen did not doubt whether he could understand the fax, and sighed when he heard it, "ATV was sentenced to lose the case by the Privy Council, and it wants to share the broadcast rights with TVB." Leshao's hard work for more than half a year has been in vain, and ATV has been at a disadvantage in this lawsuit with wireless. The Seoul Olympics will open on September 17, and there is still time to grind. Tomorrow I will take over and send someone to talk to Shao Yifu, this time, he is proud. ”

Although Qiu Degen does not agree with Lin Jianle spending a huge amount of money to compete with TVB for the exclusive broadcast rights of the Seoul Olympics, but in the past two months, from Hong Kong to the United Kingdom, from the competition for public opinion to the media competition to the political confrontation, ATV has completely lost to its old rival TVB.

When the news is transmitted back to Hong Kong, after the battle for the 'Seoul Olympics', ATV's defeat to TVB will become a recognized fact in Hong Kong, and it will be difficult to see ATV provoking TVB's TV supremacy for a long time.

Looking at the old man's decadent spirit, Lin Xiaozhi sighed and turned his head to the other side.

In the era when Lin Baixin entered ATV, ATV had surpassed the glory of the Qiu Degen era, and its market share once exceeded one-third of the Hong Kong ratings around 94, which was the most glorious period of ATV. But that was completely based on losses, and Lin Baixin lost billions of dollars for ATV.

He knew this, but he couldn't say it, so he had to change the topic to other directions: "Chairman, I don't know about the TV station, you shouldn't have come to me just to let me see this fax!" ”

"This is natural, I called you over today to ask you what you really think of your President Wang!" Qiu Degen obviously didn't want to talk about this topic anymore, his eyes stayed on Lin Xiaozhi for a while, and then fell on Zheng Zeshi, urging him to speak.

Zheng Zeshi could only extinguish the cigarette butt and said, "There is also a discussion about who will be elected as the president of New Asia!" ”

Here it comes!

Lin Xiaozhi was overjoyed in his heart, and he was busy suppressing this mood so that others would not see it. He took out the cigarette pack from his pocket, poured himself a cigarette and lit it, took a puff to calm his mood, and then nodded and said, "It seems that you have already made a decision about what I mentioned to the chairman a few days ago." Mr. Wang has a very good working attitude and is also very serious. It's just that he doesn't seem to have any experience in managing a company, and he is still managing the company with the mentality of the previous department head. Personally, I don't think he understands films, and he doesn't want to know how to make movies, and his financial control is too strict, strict to the point of being harsh, not only restricting filming expenses, but even for the company's proposal to expand and recruit professional distribution, advertising, publicity and even financial personnel, the reply is basically 'not approved'. It's a terrible thing for a film company to have such a president. I looked through the archives of Qiu's films in the past, and found that many of the presidents were directly transferred from ATV. Although film and television have never been separated, movies and television have completely different means of making profits. Therefore, if you have decided to replace New Asia with a new president for the sake of New Asia, I suggest that it is best to choose someone who has been dealing with movies all year round and knows movies very well, such as Director Zheng......"

"I thank Director Lin for his recommendation, but Qiu Sheng, I definitely can't do this position as president. There are too many strips and noodles to manage, just my more than 200 pounds, you let me film and lead the crew, it's okay, and the management company is simply not enough. I had already agreed to make a cameo role in Yongjia's film "Ghost Horse Bodyguard Thief Beauty", and I also promised to shoot a sequel to "Why Have Me" for the Arts Film Company. And the results of "Maoshan" are unexpectedly good, I also want to strike while the iron is hot, and Zhang Luo has a good sequel script before the end of the year, and is ready to open the second part, which is really unacceptable. It seems that because he recommended Zheng Zeshi to be the president of New Asia, Lin Xiaozhi obviously felt that Zheng Zeshi's attitude towards him was much better, and he was also kind and smiling when he talked to him.

"However, Mr. Wang, the president, has really not done enough, and I agree with Director Lin that it is impossible to develop in New Asia with him. As for the new president, I think Director Lin is a good person, both young and energetic, and talented. ”

"Me? I don't have any experience in this area, Zheng Sheng, you have been in the film industry for so many years, and you have been dealing with movies for more than ten years, it is not difficult to manage a film company. The position of president of New Asia is naturally Lin Xiaozhi's position for himself early, but he can't directly expose his thoughts, and he has to vaguely name his importance.

During this period of time, through the investigation of Zheng Zeshi and Wang Jia'an, he has determined that Zheng Zeshi is a person who is afraid of trouble, and it is estimated that he will push him to the throne by himself, and there is only a small chance that he will come down. And Wang Jia'an's identity is also an insurance lock left by him to compete for the president of New Asia. There are no secrets in the ATV building, and there is nothing to hide. Lin Xiaozhi had the heart to inquire, who appointed Wang Jia'an and who supported the upper position, and he had already inquired about it. That night at the Lin family, Lin Jianle made too deep an impression on him. Thinking of this period of time, he suddenly became a 'celebrity' in the ATV building, and the gossip about himself was flying all over the sky, now that I think about it, there is still a heavy conspiracy behind this, and the target is directly aimed at Lin Jianle.

stabbed people in the back several times, Rao is Lin Xiaozhi still doesn't want to give up Lin Baixin's thick thighs, but he thinks that he should properly teach his uncle who is about the same age as him a lesson, so that he can know that he is not so easy to provoke. As a result, Wang Jia'an became the battlefield of his first confrontation with Lin Jianle, since the position of president of New Asia was appointed by Lin Jianle, a famous 'music youth' in the ATV building, then even if Qiu Degen resigned, not everyone could sit on it. Lin Xiaozhi sees this very clearly, and although he Lin Xiaozhi is not the best manager of ATV, he is a candidate that Lin Baixin can accept.

Qiu Degen sat on the side and didn't speak for a long time, from theater management to banking, to real estate and TV station management, he has switched to several industries for decades, what kind of person has not been contacted, don't look at him now that he is old, but his eyes are cloudy and brighter.

The young man in front of him, since the first meeting, Qiu Degen has been in love. The longer he was in contact and the more opportunities he had to come into contact, the more he could feel that this young man was not simple. He has a heart that will never lose, and he never misses a chance, and he is always climbing up. That day, when Lin Xiaozhi proposed in his office to change the president of Xinya, and proposed that the position of president must be Zheng Zeshi, he did not immediately understand the young man's thoughts. It wasn't until he sorted out the relationship between Wang Jia'an and Lin Jianle that Qiu Degen vaguely saw that behind his proposal, Xingdi was a standard murder plan with a knife, and he wanted to borrow his hand to take the throne after Wang Jia'an was killed. As for Zheng Zeshi, he himself was invited by Qiu Degen, and he didn't know who he was. When Xinya was just formed, he intended to make him the president, but Zheng Zeshi refused, and now, when Xinya is not happy, it is even more impossible for him to want this hot position.

Knowing what he was thinking, Qiu Degen also had to admire this scheming young man who knew how to take advantage of the situation. is also a junior of the Lin family, with the same ambition, compared to the unruly Lin Jianle, Qiu Degen attaches more importance to this hidden Lin Xiaozhi. Anyway, ATV itself has already sold, and now it only has a third of the shares left. The Lin family will join ATV next year at the latest, and sooner or later it will be their Lin family's day, and Qiu Degen is also happy to help one or two behind his back, see where he can take Xinya to go!

These thoughts flashed in his heart, and after both of them stopped talking, Qiu Degen knew that it was time for him to speak, and said immediately: "What Director Zheng said is good, I also think Director Lin is more suitable for this position." During this time, I have seen all the changes in New Asia, from manpower recruitment, to film operation and publicity, all of which are from the hands of Director Lin, which is particularly valuable. As you said before, you are worried that you will encounter difficulties again, so it is not recommended to transfer from ATV to a new manager. In this way, it is better for Director Lin to temporarily act as the president of New Asia for a period of time, if Director Lin feels that he is not suitable for this position, or we find a more suitable manager, how about making changes? ”

If Lin Xiaozhi pressed his hand to his heart at this moment, he would definitely find that the frequency of his heart beating was like a drum.

Lin Xiaozhi took a deep breath, and for a moment he seemed to use all his energy before finally dispelling the dizziness in his brain. Facing the four eyes that fell on him, he nodded heavily: "Since the chairman and Zheng Sheng trust me so much, then, I will temporarily take over the position of president of New Asia for half a year." If the situation of Xinya cannot be changed within half a year, or the chairman of the board of directors has found a more suitable manager than me, I am willing to give up the position of president at any time! ”
