"You don't have to be too angry, these children of the family are like that." Lei Juekun persuaded, "That's how they usually do things, and they're all used to it." Let them put down the shelf for a while, they are really not used to it. ”

"Hmph, in my opinion, it's not that they are not used to it, but they don't want to let it go." Xu Guanwu sneered and said, "These sons of the family are spoiled by their parents at home, and there are subordinates who compliment them outside, so they are used to not knowing what their surnames are." I'm not his parents, nor his doglegs, so there's no need to put up with him. ”

"Yes, you don't have to pay attention to him. Although Liao Renbao is one of the successors of the Liao family, he actually has two older brothers above him. Lei Juekun smiled and said, "This time he also wanted to do something when he received this task, but it's a pity that he misestimated your temper and misestimated his own ability." Playing with the temper of a boy in front of you, isn't it waiting to smash the pot? ”

"If a family is offended, he will be offended, and if he dares to provoke me again, I will raise funds to collect his bank." Xu Guanwu smiled and said, "Actually, it's quite good to open a bank, and it's much easier to raise funds in the future." ”

"Liao's bank has a market capitalization of more than 5 billion Hong Kong dollars, and this bank is not listed, so it is unlikely that you want to acquire it. Unless he encounters a run on the situation again, he will not be able to hold on to raising funds from the outside world. It was because of this that Hang Seng Bank was invested by HSBC. Lei Juekun smiled and said, "The Liao family's bank has already undergone a run, so naturally it is also careful to guard against this situation. In addition, now that Hong Kong's economy is developing steadily, the banking business is getting bigger and bigger. There will be no more runs. ”

Xu Guanwu couldn't help but smile after listening to Lei Juekun's words. Zhilu said that he was not yet aware of the impending Sino-British Hong Kong issue. Originally, he wanted to remind Lei Juekun. Don't be overconfident about Hong Kong's economy. However, when he thought of the negotiation with Liao Renbao just now, Lei Juekun didn't even say a word, lest he annoy one of them, and he was obviously a person who didn't have much responsibility. and he will not open this mouth any more.

Lei Juekun sat with Xu Guanwu for a while, and when he saw that he didn't blame himself for staying out of the matter, he couldn't help but feel relieved, got up and said goodbye to Xu Guanwu and left. In fact, Lei Juekun is not as irresponsible as Xu Guanwu said, but the opponent he is facing now is too powerful. If you don't pay attention to it, you will be crushed into powder. Naturally, he had to be careful.

It's like no matter how fierce and ruthless those mountain kings are, once they encounter the pressure of the imperial army, they can only raise the white flag and surrender. It's not that the Mountain King doesn't have the courage to kill, it's just that the difference in strength is too great, and there is no need to go on at all.

Lei Juekun has a very close relationship with the bank in business, and he is not like Xu Guanwu, who has an endless stream of cash flow, so he generally needs to borrow from the bank for investment. Although his net worth is now more than 2 billion, the funds available for mobilization will never exceed 10 million Hong Kong dollars, and the rest are all invested in real estate and finance. Stocks, and more. If he is being collected by Liao's Bank, or spreading the news to the outside that he is not doing well. His wealth will be greatly reduced. This is one of the disadvantages of borrowing from a bank, which is equivalent to being choked by others, and if you are not careful, you will never recover.

Xu Guanwu has always disliked borrowing money from banks, and all investments are based on his own property, so that although the capital to make money is smaller, the risk is undoubtedly minimized. Unlike those who take out loans from banks to invest, once they encounter a financial crisis or fail to invest, they can only jump off the building in addition to declaring bankruptcy. After Hong Kong was hit by the Asian financial crisis, many property speculators were forced to declare bankruptcy because they could not repay their bank debts, and there were many brilliant stars.

……

After Lei Juekun left, Xu Guanwu invited Liang Shuyi over.

"Lei Juekun came with Liao Renbao just now." Xu Guanwu said.

"It's the third young master of the Liao family!?" Liang Shuyi was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "Then how are you talking?" ”

"Liao Renbao wants to take a stake in Brilliant Cinemas, but I only promise to consider arranging a schedule for them as appropriate. As a result, the conditions were so disparity that the negotiations broke down. Xu Guanwu smiled.

"Cracked?!" Liang Shuyi's eyes widened, "I just started talking, why are you so anxious?" You should talk slowly. ”

"They are not sincere enough, and they treat us all as if we were begging for food. When he said that he was investing in a brilliant cinema, it was like giving money to Hanako. Xu Guanwu smiled and said, "I was so angry that I didn't talk to him anymore." ”

"The sons of the family are all like this, this Young Master Liao is at least stronger than the four I saw that day." Liang Shuyi nodded and said, "Now that the negotiations have broken down, what should we do next?" ”

"Let's keep things changing. We still have more than half a year left in the contract with Lei Juekun, so there is no need to rush at all. Xu Guanwu smiled and said, "Besides, even if there is no art theater, I can easily build a new one." As long as there is a brand of Yimei here, it can still attract fans to watch the movie. However, it is not so easy for those families to open a cinema chain, how can they establish a reputation and become famous without doing it for a year and a half? ”

"What I'm saying is that time is on our side anyway, so we really don't need to be in a hurry." Liang Shuyi couldn't help but smile when she heard it.

"By the way, pay close attention to the movements of those people in the past six months, I think if I refuse to compromise with them this time, those families should not be so easy to stop, I am not afraid of the competition on the surface, I am afraid that they will have a trick behind their backs." Xu Guanwu reminded again.

"What I said is that in Nanyang and Taiwan, although several major families are in decline, they are also dead and not stiff, which may cause us some unexpected trouble." Liang Shuyi nodded.

"The trees want to be quiet and the wind doesn't stop. Our Xu family is now too famous, and the tree is so popular that it is inevitable that people will be jealous. In the future, business will not be as peaceful as before, and everyone is reminded to be careful and not to fall into the way of others. Xu Guanwu said, "When you go back to the superstar manager company, you can see that the contracts of those actors are about to expire, and remind them to renew them immediately." I don't want to be cut into the corner. ”

"Speaking of digging the foot of the wall, you are the originator." Liang Shuyi couldn't help but laugh when she heard him say this. "But don't worry. It's not easy to dig into the corners of Xu's walls. Can they afford to pay more than we do? ”

"It's hard to say, if you offer to pay them to open a company like you did when you dug Zeng Zhiwei, maybe someone will be tempted." Xu Guanwu smiled.

"In fact, staying in Xu's is the best way to develop, and other companies can't push people to Hollywood." Liang Shuyi said with a smile, "These people seem to be making a little money now, but in fact, they have no future, so why bother." ”

"Everybody looks at things differently. Maybe for some people, it's true that they can make money in their pockets now, but how can they take such a long-term view? Xu Guanwu waved his hand and said, "You tell the superstar manager company, this time from the top down to thoroughly investigate all employees, no matter how senior he is, if the contract expires, he will be notified to renew the contract, and if you don't plan to renew the contract, let him report directly to me." ”

"Don't worry, I know what to do. I also informed TVB's artist department and asked them to check it carefully. Liang Shuyi smiled.

"Clever." Xu Guanwu nodded. sent Liang Shuyi back.

……

In the next few days, both the superstar manager company and the TVB artist department are busy. They checked the contracts of their employees and notified them to renew them immediately if they found that they were about to expire. Because computers had not yet been introduced on a large scale at that time, the contracts of these thousands of employees were manually reviewed, which naturally made it more troublesome.

Just when Xu Guanwu was busy checking and filling in the gaps, Zhao Zhenqiang's new drama "Shanghai Tang" also started filming. The cast of this TV series is similar to the previous life, still Zhou Yunfa as Xu Wenqiang, Zhao Yazhi as Feng Chengcheng, Liu Dan as Feng Jingyao, and Tang Zhenye as Zhao Hanlin...... Only Ding Li's actor was replaced by Lu Liangwei to Ren Dawei.

After the TV series started filming, Zhao Yazhi became busy. Although Xu Guanwu has repeatedly reminded Zhao Zhenqiang not to worry, he slowed down the filming speed of the TV series to ensure Zhao Yazhi's rest time. However, Zhao Yazhi has always loved filming, and she has been idle for a year last year, so this time filming is particularly interesting.

Every day, I went to the crew early to wait, and when I went home at night, I also pulled Xu Guanwu to talk to the lines, which annoyed him until he sulked. Fortunately, there is a confinement lady to take care of Xiao Simo, otherwise the baby will be hungry.

Lin Qingxia couldn't help but be envious when she saw Zhao Yazhi busy working. She also hasn't made any more movies for a year. For her, Taiwan's No. 1 beauty star, it is naturally quite lonely. So she is also thinking about finding an opportunity to come back to filming, but she doesn't want to go back to Taiwan.

Because if she is still playing that kind of romantic and innocent jade girl when filming over there, her current identity is obviously out of place. But if you don't make that kind of affectionate love and love literary film, there really isn't any good movie in Taiwan. Martial arts films, kung fu films, police films, comedies, action movies, no one in Taiwan will make films with these themes, so it is better to stay in Hong Kong for more opportunities. In addition, she is reluctant to stay too far away from her daughter, so staying in Hong Kong to film is naturally the best choice.

Xu Guanwu couldn't help frowning after hearing her thoughts, to be honest, although Lin Qingxia is the No. 1 beauty star in Taiwan, but when she came to Hong Kong to develop, she didn't shoot any influential movies in the early days. "Shushan" in the 80s cost tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars at that time, and it was the film with the largest film investment at that time. Lin Qingxia, who played the lord of Tianxian Castle in it, was really immortal in a Dunhuang flying costume, but it was a pity that "Shushan" failed miserably at the box office, so Lin Qingxia did not fire the first shot.

Later, she starred in the comedy "I Love Night Fragrance" in Xinyi City, in which she played the No. 1 agent of Tianzi, and the joint code "I am a woman" simply made people laugh. Lin Qingxia also tried a sexy and charming image in this film, but won a lot of praise. However, the limelight of this film was still stolen by Lin Zixiang and Teddy Robin, and Lin Qingxia's first attempt at shooting a comedy was not very brilliant.

Later, Xu Ke asked her to co-star with Zhong Chuhong and Ye Qianwen in "Sword and Horse", Lin Qingxia tried the image of men's clothing for the first time, and she was heroic and heroic, and she was her only more brilliant role in the 80s. In addition, "Psycho", co-starred with Wang Jixian and Wang Xiaofeng, is also Lin Qingxia's first attempt at villain. Although the story of this movie is well written and the atmosphere is well rendered, it is a pity that movies like this with a dark plot and slow development of the storyline are not very popular with Hong Kong audiences. Although there are three big beauties, the box office is still not very high.

In short, Lin Qingxia did not develop much in the 80s, and her career has been in a period of decline. At that time, in addition to Zhong Chuhong, a sexy actress, who was popular, it was Hu Huizhong, Yang Ziqiong and others who beat women.

It wasn't until the 90s when he filmed new martial arts films such as "New Dragon Gate Inn" and "Smiling Proud Jianghu: The Undefeated East" that Lin Qingxia's acting career regained its second spring. (To be continued......)
