Volume 1 Chapter 86 Wait to count the money
In Hong Kong, where the economy is highly developed, the catering industry is also very developed. As he expected, there was no café on that street, but there was a restaurant. Anyway, for Lin Xiaozhi, it was just to find a place to settle down so that the two of them could chat, so he didn't look for any more cafes in his mouth, and directly invited her to sit in.
"It's not easy to ......" ordered a few fruit meals, and Lin Xiaozhi sighed: "I have to admit that Miss Li, your agent is very good, and we almost lost an opportunity to cooperate after hanging up five calls from me in three days!" ”
Why would he take the initiative to find the place where Hui Yan Yaji was active, and he had to start with Li Jiaxin's agent. Since Wireless won the exclusive right to host Miss Hong Kong in the 70s, the more outstanding Hong Kong sisters have all been signed by Wireless, and Li Jiaxin is naturally no exception, getting a five-year contract from Wireless, and Wireless also assigned her an agent surnamed Wang.
What's bad is that Lin Xiaozhi contacted her agent several times before, and the agent surnamed Wang knew that this Xinya was a film company subordinate to wireless rival ATV after Lin Xiaozhi mentioned that he was from Xinya Film Company, and then showed that he refused several times, and after seeing that Lin Xiaozhi still didn't give up, he simply turned off his phone and didn't answer his call, which made him very entangled, and he could only get Li Jiaxin's private phone through the relationship, and then come to the door.
Li Jiaxin's face was stunned, "Mr. Lin, what's wrong with my agent?" ”
Now it was Lin Xiaozhi's turn to be surprised, frowned and asked, "Why, didn't your agent mention to you, did Xinya Film Company ask you to make a movie?" ”
"Nope!" Li Jiaxin shook his head, then frowned and said, "Wang Sheng never mentioned it to me!" ”
Well, Lin Xiaozhi really underestimated the vigilance of wireless for ATV now, a battle for the exclusive broadcasting rights of the 'Seoul Olympics' that ended from the beginning of the year to last month, it seems that wireless has made TVB realize the threat of ATV's hegemony and began to completely ban ATV.
learned that it was not from her original intention, Lin Xiaozhi breathed a sigh of relief, the reason why he has not given up contacting Li Jiaxin is that Li Jiaxin is consistent with the heroine in his mind in terms of temperament and appearance; The second is because this most beautiful Hong Kong sister is now very popular in Hong Kong, although she has been accused of being a soulless vase, she has indeed participated in many classic movies, which impressed him deeply.
Lin Xiaozhi has seen a lot of reports about her, she was born in a poor family and had many unfortunate encounters, and she only entered this circle at the end of the golden age of the Hong Kong film industry, and she failed to shake off the vase identity and become an international superstar like her predecessor Zhang Manyu. But this woman wandered around so many rich people, and finally cultivated Zhengguo to marry into a wealthy family, this scheming and perseverance, Lin Xiaozhi felt that she and Ye Yuqing were actually the same kind of people, as long as she was given a chance, she could succeed.
“…… Probably because of the relationship between our new Asia and ATV, although I don't agree with Wang Sheng's approach, I also understand it. However, in doing so, it had an impact on Miss Li's interests. If ATV wanted to ask Miss Li to film, he stopped us from saying nothing, but I really can't imagine that we asked you to make a movie, what is the conflict of interest in this, as far as I know, the Shaw Brothers film under Wireless was discontinued a few years ago. Hehe, this time we have a movie in New Asia, in which the role of the heroine I think is very suitable for Miss Li, and I guarantee that the treatment given is the highest that the industry can give, and I also brought the script today. If Miss Li is interested, you can read the script first......"
"It's okay to call me Ah Xin, don't call Miss Li or Miss Li...... So, can you show me the script? Li Jiaxin smiled sweetly, which made Lin Xiaozhi's heart flutter, and secretly praised that he was really a natural stunner, he was already so attractive at the age of 18, no wonder he could be crowned by the media as a 'rich killer' in the future. However, she wanted to read the script, which made Lin Xiaozhi happy, and took out the script from the briefcase with her hands and feet, and then handed it to her.
"Color is Emptiness"!
Li Jiaxin took the script from him and quickly flipped through it.
"Ha Lu Ha ......"
About half an hour later, Li Jiaxin, who had already laughed so much that her cheeks were flushed, put down the manuscript, and a tuft of hair on her sideburns naughtily blocked her cigarette money, making her look a lot more wild charm, "Screenwriter Lin Xiaozhi? Mr. Lin, did you write this script? ”
Li Jiaxin straightened out her messy hair, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and asked curiously: "This is really a very interesting script......
"Why, don't I look like the kind of person who can write a screenplay?" Lin Xiaozhi took out his cigarette pack and shook it: "Don't mind if I smoke a cigarette!" ”
He used to be a little addicted to smoking, but recently, he has been working day and night to catch up with the manuscript, and his addiction has come up.
Li Jiaxin shook his head, his eyes glared at the boss, and he looked at Lin Xiaozhi fiercely for a while with an incredible look before he covered his mouth and said, "...... No, it's not. It's just that I thought screenwriters should be that kind of ......"
She mumbled for a moment, then shut up. She thought of her prospective boyfriend Ni Zhen, who is now chasing her father, Ni Maia, one of the four great talents of Xiangjiang, is not in vain, he can write martial arts novels, science fiction novels, short and long reviews of movies, current affairs reviews, and even movie scripts. Perhaps, in her mind, the screenwriters who are hidden behind the scenes should be as old as Ni Mad .
But when the words came to her mouth, she swallowed them back. Obviously, although she is only 18 years old now, she also knows what to say and what not to say.
However, Lin Xiaozhi seemed to see through what she was thinking, and answered this question for her, "It should be that kind of old man!" ”
Li Jiaxin smiled awkwardly, quickly changed the topic, couldn't hide the excitement in a pair of big eyes, and asked: "I also read some of the script, it's a very interesting script." However, it seems to have a little yellow joke, but I don't know how much you can pay if you Xinya invited me to shoot? ”
She doesn't seem to realize that this is a movie.
Lin Xiaozhi's eyes flashed with a smile, and he took out an HSBC check book directly from his pocket, took out a pen and opened it, wrote on it for a while, and then handed the check to her: "500,000 salary plus box office dividends, here is 250,000 checks, if Miss Li agrees to appear in this play now and signs a contract, we will pay you half of your salary immediately......"
Just for the words "the most beautiful Hong Kong sister", give her a salary of 500,000 yuan, which is worth it!
The salary of 500,000 yuan, this is probably the highest salary she can get when she just debuted, not to mention that there are box office dividends to get, after checking the contract and having no problems, she signed her name on the agreement on the spot.
signed the most beautiful Hong Kong sister, the main crew lineup of "Color is Empty" in Lin Xiaozhi's mind has matured, except for the 2 seniors who have not yet found a suitable candidate, the other roles are being screened in an orderly manner.
I have to admit that Song Nianhui is indeed a talent.
Soon the good news from Taiwan made Lin Xiaozhi excited to find that a choice he had at that time brought him such a high return.
Song Nianhui is not wrong, not to mention that it is on a par with the stock markets of Europe, the United States and Japan, that is, compared with Hong Kong, the Taiwan stock market can only be called the level of young children, that is, children with young children's IQ can play.
Since noon on September 26, the day before the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Taiwan Provincial Finance Office suddenly announced the introduction of stock exchange taxes, and the next Monday, Taiwan's stock market began to plummet, and the index fell from 8,789 points for 19 consecutive days to 4,645 points, almost halving Taiwan's stock market. Under the command of Song Nianhui, almost all of them invested in the stock index around 5,000 points, and all of them entered the stock market to rise the Taiwan stock index. From the 5,000 points they bought fell to the bottom of 4,645 points, and before the Taiwan side started, Lin Xiaozhi had already lost more than 3 million Hong Kong dollars.
In the past few years, Taiwan's stock market has risen wildly, and the number of shareholders who have opened accounts with various securities companies has been as high as more than 7 million, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the total population of Taiwan Province just exceeded 20 million last year, and there may be a certain amount of water in these more than 7 million accounts, but stock speculators have penetrated into various industries, and it is not an exaggeration to say that Taiwan is "the whole people speculating in stocks" at this time. The Taiwan authorities had promised not to interfere in the stock market before, and the Taiwan authorities did not directly interfere in the operation of the stock market during the peanut era and the era of Prince Chiang, at least on the surface, but now that Prince Chiang had just died, Li Huihui had just taken the stage and made such a drama, and the Taiwan people were immediately angry.
When the Taipei police intercepted demonstrators who attempted to set fire to the provincial governor's palace with Molotov cocktails for the ninth time, on 22 October, the head of the finance department received a death threat letter with bullets in his home. On the 24th, after a noon banquet for the four major business circles and dozens of giants in Taiwan's industrial and commercial circles, the senior management of the Finance Department hosted a banquet for the CEOs of 18 well-known securities companies in Taiwan's stock market in the evening, and they are also the largest market makers in Taiwan's stock market.
The ridiculous scene is that when the Taiwan authorities' actions were exposed by the media on the second day, Taiwan's stock market fell by more than 300 points instead of soaring.
However, unlike the panicked citizens, the market makers, who had already started buying cheap stocks early on the dip, understood that the rally was coming.
On Wednesday the 26th, with Wang Yongqing, the richest man in Taiwan worth NT$112 billion, announcing that he would spend NT$4.2 billion to buy back Formosa Plastics shares, Taiwan's stock market, which had been plummeting for a month, finally fired the first shot of the rebound.
Almost on the same day, Cathay Life, Changhua Bank, Taiwan Cement, etc., dozens of Taiwan's stock market heavyweights or announced repurchases, or announced annual earnings reports in advance, or issued huge shareholder dividends, at the same time, Taiwan's largest eighteen securities companies led by the stock market market capital, began to enter the market, up to nearly a trillion capital under the joint efforts, the Taiwan stock index rose by 500 points in one day, and then on Thursday and Friday, it once fell to 4,000 points near the Taiwan stock index, Once again, it was lifted back to more than five thousand points.
In this regard, Song Nianhui made a special phone call and told Lin Xiaozhi happily: "...... Lin Sheng, wait and count the money! ”
