Judging from the current situation, the total global box office should still be able to reach 150 million US dollars, and if the box office is still a failure, then even in Hollywood, there are only a handful of successful movies, so the media that threw out that kind of statement is just grandstanding.

After he finished reading all the reports, it was already noon, and he was about to go to dinner, when there were a few knocks on the door, and then Zhao Meixuan pushed the door open and came in: "Boss, He Jing, President of Singapore Media Group, called and wanted to ask the boss for dinner, I wonder when you have time, boss?" ”

He Jing? Gu Chen then remembered that the first TV series cooperated by Singapore Group and ATV had already started filming, and it was estimated that He Jing came to Hong Kong to visit the class this time, but today is the 31st, and tomorrow is New Year's Day, that is, the day of the British royal family's canonization, he must fly to the UK in the afternoon, otherwise he will not be able to catch up with the ceremony tomorrow afternoon, but he has no time to meet He Jing.

In his previous life, he once saw from the news Internet that the future helmsman of Temasek Holdings, a world-famous state-owned investment company in Singapore, is the wife of Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong, and Ho Ching is Lee Hsien Loong's second wife, and the two should not divorce in the next one or two decades.

Even in the 21st century, most people may not know about Temasek Holdings, but in the economic world, Temasek Holdings is well-known, it is an investment company established by the Singapore government, and the Ministry of Finance of Singapore has a 1oo% stake in it, and another investment company invested by the Singapore government - 'Government of Singapore Investment Corporation' is the two major investment companies in Singapore.

By the 20s of the 21st century, Temasek Holdings has developed into a large-scale, international investment company with assets in dozens of countries around the world, assets under management of more than US$100 billion, and its stock market value accounts for 47% of the entire Singapore stock market, almost dominating the economic lifeline of Singapore, and it is also one of the most profitable investment companies in the world, with the highest credit rating rating from two international rating agencies, Standard & Poor's and Moody's. It is regarded as a model of capital operation by the international investment community.

With such a company, Tang Dynasty Holdings may have the possibility of cooperating with it in the future, thinking of this, he said to Zhao Meixuan: "Then it's noon." ”

The place where we met was a Chinese restaurant, and since the opening of Tam Ka Hin, the booming business has made many people see the business opportunities in it, so several high-end Chinese restaurants have appeared in Hong Kong one after another. The one where Gu Chen met with He Jing is one of them, but if you want to talk about the most high-end and popular Chinese restaurant, Hong Kong people choose Tan Jiaxuan, not only because Tan Jiaxuan's dishes are really first-class, but also because Tan Jiaxuan is a Chinese restaurant chosen by Hong Kong celebrities. Dining here, if you meet a big star, there is no need to be surprised by a rich man, because this is too sparse and ordinary; Finally, there is another point - Tan Jiaxuan's boss is Gu Chen.

It was a very coincidence that the two sides met at the door of the restaurant, and He Jing did not come alone, Pan Lingling, who had a one-sided relationship, also came, when Gu Chen saw Pan Lingling who was following He Jing on the left back. He was stunned for a moment, obviously surprised, and then a faint weird smile appeared on his face, and then he shook hands with He Jing: "I haven't seen you for a few months, Ms. He's demeanor is better than at the beginning." ”

"Hehe, Mr. Gu said with a smile, compared to Mr. Gu's beautiful wife and beautiful family, I am far behind." He Jing smiled. The tone was quite modest, she turned her head to look at Pan Lingling: "Lingling already met Mr. Gu last time in Singapore, I saw that you chatted quite speculatively last time, and today Lingling just rested, so I brought it over, Mr. Gu shouldn't mind." ”

Gu Chen said with a smile: "What did Ms. He say, I can't ask for to meet Miss Pan again." I wanted to ask Miss Pan out for dinner before, but I have been entangled in mundane affairs. As he spoke, he stretched out his hand again and gently shook Pan Lingling, who was a little restrained.

"Two inside, please." The greetings are over. Gu Chen made a gesture of inviting the restaurant, and walked into the restaurant first, and then the waiter led the three of them to the second floor of the restaurant, sitting in a corner by the window, Gu Chen looked around, and nodded secretly, the area on the second floor is not small, but there are not many seats, each seat is two or three meters apart, and they are all blocked by a half-height wooden fence.

As long as you don't speak too loudly, you won't be heard by the people in the other seats, and the restaurant is decorated with a bit of antique, which provides a pretty good choice for those who don't like to eat in a closed environment like a private room, and prefer quiet.

After the waiter finished ordering and left, He Jing spoke first: "When I was in Singapore, I often went to Mr. Gu's Tan Jia Xuan Restaurant to eat, to be honest, the authentic Chinese food from China's Big 6 is really different, and it was almost impossible to eat such authentic Chinese food in Singapore before." ”

"Hehe, Singapore is a multi-ethnic country, although the Chinese account for the majority, but after so many years of ethnic integration, many things have already changed imperceptibly, and the aspect of 'eating' is the most intuitive embodiment. However, multi-ethnic charm also has multi-ethnic charm, and as far as I know, Singapore's cuisine from all over the world attracts many foodies from all over the world. ”

Hearing this, He Jing couldn't help but smile, in recent years, Singapore is actively developing the tourism industry, in order to achieve the purpose of economic diversity, and food is one of the magic weapons for Singapore to attract tourists from all over the world. ”

Gu Chen shrugged his shoulders lightly and said: "In fact, the situation in Hong Kong is similar to Singapore, the area of the two is about the same, and the cultural subject is also similar, the difference is that Hong Kong pays more attention to the development of manufacturing, while Hong Kong's manufacturing industry has gradually declined, and now it is mainly based on finance, trade and service industries." ”

Speaking of this, Gu Chen said with a smile: "To put it unrealistically, Singapore and Hong Kong have their own advantages and disadvantages, if the advantages of both sides can be organically combined, it will definitely produce the effect that one plus one is far greater than two." ”

"Didn't Mr. Gu already set up Galaxy Aerospace, and I heard that he just signed a contract with Bombardier in Canada, I am afraid that Hong Kong's aviation manufacturing industry will flourish in a few years." Gu Chen took the lead in such a big thing as the transformation of Hong Kong's manufacturing industry, how could He Jing not know that from the perspective of national interests, she definitely did not want the transformation of Hong Kong's manufacturing industry to succeed in the end.

Because it is also the main economic system and the fastest growing economy in Southeast Asia, if Hong Kong's manufacturing industry is successfully transformed and the high-tech industry becomes one of Hong Kong's pillar industries, then Hong Kong's international competitiveness is bound to be greatly improved, and correspondingly, Singapore will be suppressed, which is the geopolitical factor. To truly achieve a win-win situation, it is far from being as easy and simple as it is said.

It's a pity that Singapore is not in a position to stop it. Maybe she shouldn't think about these things at the national level as a businessman, but her background makes her have to think about it, which is one of the reasons why she desperately wants to be friendly with Gu Chen - since there is no way to stop it, she has to try to cooperate.

"It's a long way to go." Gu Chen shook his head with a chuckle. At this time, the dishes they ordered were also delivered, and when the waiter left, Gu Chen personally served He Jing and Pan Lingling a bowl of soup each, which made both of them a little startled, and hurriedly thanked them, but Gu Chen said with a smile: "The two of you don't have to be so polite, Ms. He is the vice president of Temasek Holdings, and there are still many opportunities for everyone to cooperate in the future, but it is necessary to have more contacts." Besides, it is every man's honor to be able to serve beautiful women.

Hearing Gu Chen take the initiative to say that he would cooperate with Temasek Holdings in the future, the smile on He Jing's face couldn't help but be even bigger, and after a little hesitation, he said the main purpose of asking Gu Chen today: "Actually, in addition to visiting the crew in Hong Kong this time, there is another thing I want to discuss with Mr. Gu. ”

"Oh? What's the matter, Ms. Ho, but it doesn't hurt to say. The smile on Gu Chen's face remained unchanged, as if he had anticipated He Jing's words.

"Italy's Falls Shipping Group is in danger of bankruptcy due to financial problems, Temasek Holdings is interested in acquiring this shipping group, and the two parties have already conducted preliminary negotiations, and the situation is not bad, I wonder if Mr. Gu is interested." As he spoke, He Jing took out a copy of the document from the briefcase he was carrying and put it in front of Gu Chen: "This is the information of Falls Shipping Group, Mr. Gu might as well take a look at it first." ”

Temasek Holdings wants to invite itself to acquire Falls Shipping Group? Gu Chen didn't expect that He Jingyue was about to do this, and with doubts, he opened the text and looked at it, and soon he knew why Temasek Holdings had such thoughts.

Falls Shipping Group is Italy's largest maritime transportation company, and its total ship tonnage has reached more than 17o tons, which is naturally incomparable with several of the world's largest ship kings, and even only one-ninth of the total tonnage of ships owned by the world's largest ship king Bao Yugang, but in the field of oil transportation, Falls occupies a place, because all the ships under Falls are large oil tankers, engaged in the transportation of crude oil and refined oil, and the reason why Temasek Holdings wants to cooperate with Gu Chen to acquire Falls, Obviously, because of the Tang Dynasty oil under Gu Chen's name, you must know that whether it is the refined oil produced by Petro-Canada and Petro-Singapore, or the crude oil extracted from the Falkland Islands, a large number of oil tankers are needed to transport them to all over the world.
