At the end of March, Xu Guanwu took his wife Zhao Yazhi and son Xu Simo to the United States to attend the Golden Globe Awards and Academy Awards.

Lin Qingxia can't leave for the time being because she wants to stay in Hong Kong to shoot "Love in a Fallen City", while her daughter Xu Sichen still stays in Hong Kong, and the second elder of the Xu family and her sister-in-law are responsible for taking care of it.

This time he couldn't go to the United States with Lin Qingxia's mother and daughter, Xu Guanwu felt very guilty in his heart, and decided to compensate their mother and daughter next time.

And the reason why Lin Qingxia didn't want to go to the United States this time was not only because she wanted to shoot "Love in a Fallen City", but also because she was jealous. Zhao Yazhi was able to accompany Xu Guanwu on the red carpet and enjoy the cheers and cheers of the crowd, but she could only stay in the hotel and watch the two show their affection in front of the camera through TV. It was just too much for her to bear. So Lin Qingxia would rather be out of sight and refuse the opportunity to go to the United States together.

On the plane, Zhao Yazhi and the nanny were teasing Xiao Simo, making him laugh all the time. Xu Guanwu sat quietly on the side, neither reading nor eating, just sitting there quietly in a daze.

"Ah Wu, what's wrong with you, you look sullen?" Zhao Yazhi teased her son for a long time, and when she looked up and saw Xu Guanwu sitting there, she couldn't help but sigh and ask.

"Nothing." Xu Guanwu was awakened by her question, waved his hand at Zhao Yazhi and said, "I'm just thinking about something." ”

"I'm thinking about Qingxia's mother and daughter." Zhao Yazhi asked faintly.

At this time, the nanny knew how to take Simo aside.

Xu Guanwu didn't speak, he didn't want to lie to deceive Zhao Yazhi.

Zhao Yazhi saw that Xu Guanwu was silent, and knew that he had acquiesced in his heart. I couldn't help but sigh again. "This time she couldn't come with because of filming. Next time you have a chance, you don't have to pay too much attention to it. ”

Xu Guanwu couldn't help but nod when he heard this, "She didn't have time to come over this time, next time I'll think about compensating them." ”

"Well, let's take our son to have a good time in the United States this time, and we should also take him to see the world more." Zhao Yazhi asked Xu Guanwu with a smile.

"It's fine." Xu Guanwu nodded, "My son should see more of the world, but if you want to travel, you have to wait until I'm done with business." ”

"That's nature. What movies are you going to invest in this time? Zhao Yazhi asked with a smile.

Xu Guanwu nodded, "American fans have the best money to earn, and it would be a big fool not to make money." IN ADDITION TO INVESTING IN FILMS, THERE IS ALSO GOOD NEWS FROM SILICON VALLEY THAT APPLE COMPUTER HAS COMPLETED THE BETA TESTING OF A GRAPHICAL OPERATING SYSTEM. ”

"What is a graphical operating system? What's the use of it, you seem excited? Zhao Yazhi asked suspiciously.

Xu Guanwu smiled, "After having a graphical operating system, a series of complicated computer instructions are omitted, so that those who don't understand computer language and have never touched a computer have never been in contact with a computer." It is also possible to operate the computer independently. ”

"That's amazing." Zhao Yazhi opened her mouth wide in surprise and said, "That's it." The user base faced by computers has expanded too much. ”

"Yes, in the past, computers were just the playthings of geeks, and they had to be professionally trained to operate. Once the graphical operating system is released, even people who don't know how to use computers can operate it, which will naturally lead to a huge increase in computer sales, and it is also time for us to make a fortune. Xu Guanwu said with a smile, "Apple is going public this year, and I think I may become a billionaire." ”

"Ten billion dollars?!" Zhao Yazhi couldn't help but be stunned, "Is it possible to make so much money?" ”

"Maybe, but after Apple goes public, I will consider reducing some of my shares." Xu Guanwu thought for a while and said, "I don't think the U.S. government wants a big computer company like Apple to be controlled by a foreigner, right?" This is also detrimental to Apple's future development. ”

"Well, I don't understand business matters, and I can't help you." Zhao Yazhi waved her hand and said, "But if you really have tens of billions of dollars, my son and I can consider helping you spend some." ”

"I know, you're going to shop again." Xu Guanwu smiled, "It's okay, I will make a lot of money this time when Apple is preparing to go public, so I just let you squander it." ”

"Xie Lu, thank you, husband, I know that you are the best for me." Zhao Yazhi said, hugged Xu Guanwu fiercely and kissed him.

Xu Guanwu laughed but felt uninterested, he now had a feeling of invincibility and loneliness. Although Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest in Hong Kong still cause him a little trouble from time to time, anyone with a discerning eye knows that the Hui Group is now the leader of the Hong Kong film industry, and it has far exceeded the sum of Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest.

If Xu Guanwu is willing, he can poach all the artists of the two companies in a few minutes, and now they are still bouncing, just to find opponents for themselves and remind themselves to stay competitive at all times.

As for the TV station, not to mention, the ratings of Jiayi and Li's two TV stations are not as high as TVB's, TVB is already dominant in Hong Kong, and any program broadcast has a rating of more than 30 points, which is much stronger than Li's and Jiayi.

And with Xu Guanwu's current net worth, you can buy the two TV stations of Lidi and Jiayi. It's just that I'm afraid of the laws of the Hong Kong government, so I can't buy these two TV stations.

In terms of newspapers, the free-of-charge Tian Tian Ribao still dominates the throne in terms of circulation and is also the most influential print media in Hong Kong. Each issue has a circulation of more than 500,000 copies, which is more than the circulation of newspapers such as "Sing Tao Daily", "Ming Pao", and "Overseas Chinese Daily" combined, and the advertising revenue far exceeds them. With Xu Guanwu's net worth, it is also effortless to buy newspapers such as "Sing Tao Daily" and "Ming Pao".

In terms of magazines, "The Phantom of the East" is now the only professional film magazine in Hong Kong, with sales of about 80,000 copies per issue, although it is not as good as some popular comic magazines, but compared with other literary magazines and financial magazines. That's a very good sales. At the same time, its influence is very powerful. Many fans use "The Phantom of the East" as a guide to watching movies.

On the star side. There are hundreds of celebrities under the superstar manager company, including movie stars like the Xu brothers, directors like Mai Jia, Hong Jingbao, Gui Zhihong, and screenwriters like Huang Baiming, Huang Bingyao, and Wang Jing. There are also singers such as Wenna Band, Zhang Guorong, Xu Xiaofeng, etc...... It's a star-studded group.

In addition, Xinghui Art School also teaches many new talents every year, and they also inject new blood into the superstar manager company, so that the company can always maintain its vitality. In addition, the Miss Hong Kong beauty pageant also provides many young and beautiful and dignified Miss Hong Kong for superstar managers, who are young and beautiful and have a lot of popularity, and they are already ahead of the curve before they have officially entered the industry. Although the superstar manager company has been established for less than five years, the reserve of talents has far exceeded that of Golden Harvest, and even more than the 30-year-old Shaw Brothers Pictures.

On the record label side. Yisheng Records is now far ahead of PolyGram Records, the former overlord of Hong Kong's record industry, and its star singers such as Xu Xiaofeng. Xu Guanjie, Deng Lijun, Xu Guanying, Wen Na Band, Zhang Guorong, etc., are already famous singers in Southeast Asia, with more than 5 million records sold every year, and an average of more than 10,000 records are sold every day, and almost every week there are singers who hold concerts. As for the show, the performances are endless.

All in all, the Hui Group has basically reached the top in Hong Kong now, and there is a feeling of being alone and seeking defeat, so Xu Guanwu is very happy.

Once upon a time, making money was his first priority, and for this reason he invested in Apple Computer, Microsoft Corporation, and acquired Cheung Kong shares. But now that he has the wealth in his hands, Xu Guanwu is a little at a loss. He can't spend all this money in his life, and the property left for his children is enough for them to enjoy a lifetime comfortably.

So now money has really become less important to Xu Guanwu. If a few years ago, he would have been cheering for the money he had gotten so much, but now he just smiled.

"Ah Zhi, after returning to Hong Kong this time, I plan to take a back seat." Xu Guanwu suddenly said to Zhao Yazhi.

"Huh?! For what? Zhao Yazhi asked in surprise.

Xu Guanwu is now in the prime of life, and it is the time to show his ambitions and lead the Xu Group to a new journey, and he actually said at this time that he would take a back seat, which is really unacceptable to Zhao Yazhi.

"It's nothing, it's just a little boring." Xu Guanwu waved his hand and said, "Now that everything in the company has become regular, even if I am not directly involved in the management, there will basically be no mistakes, so I plan to take a back seat as a consultant, occasionally give opinions on the company's operations, but no longer participate in the actual management." I also want to use the rest of my time to do more of what I want to do. ”

"And what do you want to do?" Zhao Yazhi listened and couldn't help but ask suspiciously.

"I haven't thought about it yet, maybe I might go on a trip, publish a book, sing a song, or act." Xu Guanwu smiled and said, making money now is too unchallenging for him, returning to the company every day is to sign documents, boring, not the life he wants at all.

"You're going to come out singing and filming?!" Zhao Yazhi couldn't help but ask in surprise when she heard this, "Didn't you stop me from continuing filming before, saying that our family's money is enough, and I don't need to come out to act to make money anymore." Why are you going to come out to film now? ”

"I'm just saying it casually, if you really want to ask me to act, it depends on how much he can't get paid." Xu Guanwu said with a smile, "My worth is not lower than Cheng Long and Sanmao." ”

"Yes, yes, you are such a big boss filming, which director dares to direct? You still have to stop being whimsical. Zhao Yazhi said helplessly, "In my opinion, you may have been too busy with work and too many things recently, so you are bored, this time I will accompany you to have a good time in the United States to relax, and there will be nothing to do in a few days." ”

"No, I've really made up my mind to step down." Xu Guanwu waved his hand and said, "We have already earned enough money, and it doesn't matter how much money is left, so why bother competing for money anymore, it's time to do what you really want to do." ”

"And what do you really want to do?" Zhao Yazhi asked, "Wouldn't it be like those faint monarchs in ancient times, yes, who want to be immortal in the wine pool, meat, forest?" ”

"Immortality is impossible, and life in the wine pond meat forest is not for me. In fact, I didn't think about my life after I retired, but there are still some things I wanted to do. Xu Guanwu smiled and said, "Maybe the time has come now." ”

"Well, now that you've made up your mind, I won't be able to persuade you anymore." Zhao Yazhi heard Xu Guanwu say this, so she nodded and said, "But I always want to persuade you to think about it more, retire at a young age, what are you going to do with a few decades?" Is it just boring to stay at home every day? (To be continued......)
