Chapter 405: The Old Sister Returns

Xu Judi is the only youngest daughter of the Xu family, and she is much younger than these brothers, so she has been the object of favor since she was a child, and of course she is also a naughty and mischievous sister.

How to arrange her is really a difficult matter, in Xu Guanwen's meaning, if she is willing to be an actor, she will start with TVB or Xu's tricks, or study at Xinghui Art School for one year. If she wants to be an administrator, then join the Xu family and start from the grassroots level. If she wants to do business, her brothers will each contribute 100,000 Hong Kong dollars to help her open a store in Central.

However, this arrangement is too harsh in Xu Guanwu's opinion, and it is too aggrieved to ask a master's student who graduated from the UK to join the crew to play tricks, or to enter the company and start from the grassroots level. And even if they dare to arrange for her to join the company as an ordinary employee, who would dare to be her boss?! And if you want to start a business, it's not just about opening a store. Engaged in factories, enterprises, and foreign trade, Xu Judi graduated from the University of Birmingham in the United Kingdom with a master's degree in management, and must be very good at management.

Therefore, with Xu Guanwu's idea, first arrange a high-level idle position for her in the company, let her learn and practice in the company first, and then slowly give her some tasks, and after she really shows her strength, arrange for her to take up a more important position. In this way, she can get by on the face, and she can also achieve a more stable effect.

Xu Guanying agreed with Xu Guanwu's suggestion, but Xu Guanjie still appreciated his eldest brother's approach. His opinion is that in the future, the Hui family will continue to grow bigger and stronger, and may become the leading wealthy family in Hong Kong, so there must be a charter for family members to enter the company.

Because there will be more and more descendants of the Xu family in the future. They also want to join the company when they grow up. If you don't plan now. In the future, I will think that one comes out is one out. It will inevitably make other people feel unfair and resentful. The so-called not suffering from widowhood but suffering from inequality, and the wall of brothers is the beginning of the family's ruin.

Moreover, the imbalance of future generations may also lead to the existence of black sheep, so it is necessary to start from the lower level at the beginning, so that they can get the best training and can really see their abilities and ways of doing things. It is convenient to consider the choice of successor after the most embarrassing.

Xu Guanwu hadn't thought about the issue of descendants joining the company to take over, and now that he heard Xu Guanjie say this, he couldn't help but feel that there was some truth. In the future, his children will definitely take over, and the children of the eldest brother, third brother, and fourth brother will also enter the company in the future. In order to avoid the occurrence of things like their brothers fighting for power and profit, they must first make a charter.

……

After careful deliberation by the four brothers, everyone agreed with the eldest brother's opinion, but according to what Xu Guanwu said, the salary was arranged for her to be a little higher. In addition, the four brothers each gave 2.5% of the shares to Xu Judy. So that she can participate in the company's dividends.

The 2.5% stake of each of the four brothers is one percent, and judging from the current market value of the Xu family. This share is nearly 100 million Hong Kong dollars, which is a huge amount of money now. This can be regarded as a little gift from the four brothers to the little sister.

A month later, Hui Judy finally flew back to Hong Kong, and with her boyfriend, Harry, a British boy.

When Xu Judi heard that her brothers only arranged for her to be a small clerk in the company, she was very unhappy, and she almost cried when her mouth was flattened. But then when she heard her brothers say that they would give her a hundred percent of the shares, she cheered happily again. Let Xu Guanwu sour her is to die for money.

After two days of recuperation at home, Judy Xu and Harry went to work in the company, of course, from the grassroots level, but in terms of salary five times that of ordinary employees. And Xu Guanwu also bought a private villa around the Xu family for the two of them, which was more than sixty percent more expensive than when they bought it during the stock market crash a few years ago. It can be seen that the current trend of Hong Kong real estate.

With the recovery of Hong Kong's economy, real estate has also recovered. Li Jiacheng's Cheung Kong Industrial, Hu Yingxiang's Hopewell Real Estate, Li Zhaoji's Henderson Land, etc., are now performing very well, so that Xu Guanwu, who is a major shareholder and partner, can also earn a lot of money.

However, the current housing prices in Hong Kong are still too far behind the housing prices in twenty or thirty years from now. In the next 20 years, the housing prices in Hong Kong will be an exaggeration, and an ordinary house will cost millions. It's like a villa in Kowloon now, but it's only a few million.

……

After arranging his old girl, it is already the end of July, and "Jaws 2" in the United States has been released for two weeks. The box office is very good, it has been the box office champion for two weeks, and looking at the momentum of the rapid rise in the box office, there is a chance to hit this year's annual box office champion.

Xu Guanwu is naturally optimistic about this, and he is now in urgent need of a large amount of money, in addition to funding the construction of scientific research in the mainland, he will also take the lead in building factories in the Shenzhen Special Economic Zone, etc., all of which require a large amount of money.

The mainland promised Xu Guanwu that he could build a cinema in Yuezhou City, and now it is also under urgent preparation. Xu Guanwu wants to build his first cinema in the mainland into a landmark building in Guangdong City, and the bottom is naturally a luxuriously decorated cinema, but above Xu Guanwu plans to build a high-end office building.

Of course, it is impossible for the mainland to open up the real estate market now, so this high-end office building is only an idea at present, but it is also necessary to prepare from the beginning, first choose the address and then build the infrastructure, and then start construction as soon as the time is right and the documents are approved, instead of building a large number of civil works and digging the foundation after re-planing.

At present, the new cinema is still in the stage of site selection and architectural design, Xu Guanwu specially hired architects from Hong Kong and the mainland to design the cinema, so that it will not be outdated in 40 years, so that they will become a landmark building in Guangdong City, and anyone who mentions it will have to give a thumbs up.

Not everyone can understand Xu Guanwu's behavior of going to the mainland to build a theater. When this proposal was presented at the meeting of the Group of Seven, everyone in the room was taken aback.

Going to the mainland to build a theater is clearly to turn against Wanwan, and Wanwan is an important market for Hong Kong films. Although now because Xu's has European and American markets, the Wanwan market is no longer so important. But it is also a market of hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars. It's a shame to lose it like this.

Moreover, the film market in the mainland is not in a slump. Movie tickets are only a few cents. There are only three cinemas in Guangdong. Judging from the seats of two or three thousand, I am afraid that it will only take a year to be screened, and it may not be as high as the box office earned by Wanwan in a week. Moreover, the mainland is also extremely strict on film censorship, and no ghosts and demons are allowed, no erotic scenes are allowed, and no intimate scenes are allowed......

And Xu's current movies, except for kung fu movies, are relatively clean, and other urban action genres. Horror thrillers, literary and artistic love movies, all of which can't escape these shots. And if all these scenes are deleted, the storyline will be incomplete. When the audience can't understand and scold their mother, who should be blamed for this?!

Xu Guanwu heard everyone's complaints one by one, but he was not in a hurry to refute them. At present, because Hong Kong people do not have a deep understanding of the mainland, misunderstanding and hostility are inevitable. However, in a few years, the mainland's reform and opening up will begin to bear fruit, and exchanges between Hong Kong and the mainland will increase. Naturally, some misunderstandings will be dispelled.

And Xu Guanwu did not plan to rush forward, he knew that he wanted to open the mainland market. It is absolutely impossible to adopt a policy of rapid progress. In the early stage of reform and opening up in the mainland, there will be many different voices within the mainland. If you take a radical risk, not only will you not enter this market smoothly, but on the contrary, it will cause a big rebound.

Therefore, what Xu Guanwu means is that the cinema may as well be built slowly, and it is best to build it for two or three years, and lay the foundation steadily. And after it was built, he was not in a hurry to send Xu's film over, but cooperated with the leftist film company first. At their own expense, they will produce talents to make movies, and after they are released, they will be divided according to the box office.

After the political and cultural environment of the mainland changes, with the reform and opening up, some works with relatively novel themes will be launched, so as to not cause too many twists and turns, and successfully enter the mainland market steadily.

Xu Guanwu remembers that it seems that in the late 80s, Taiwan basically stopped caring about Hong Kong film companies cooperating with the mainland to make films, and many Hong Kong film companies went to the mainland to shoot and shoot at that time, which was also welcomed by the mainland government. It seems that Yuan Biao, Yuan Hao's brothers filmed "Frozen Wonder", Zhang Manyu, Lin Qingxia's co-produced "Rolling Red Dust", Zhou Yanfa, Wu Qianlian's "Citi Shaolin", etc., have all been filmed in the mainland, and they have not been blocked by Wanwan.

Therefore, when Xu Guanwu proposed the policy of delaying the construction of the theater and waiting to see the situation, everyone no longer resolutely opposed it. Anyway, in their opinion, as long as they don't deal with the mainland now, as for what will happen in the next few years, who can guess?!

……

A month later, "Jaws 2" was drawn, and the film also received a super high box office, ranking fifth in the annual box office list, which can really be called a blockbuster.

Immediately afterwards, the sci-fi action blockbuster "Superman", the inspirational blockbuster "Rocky 2", and the horror and suspense classic "Moonlight Panic" will also be released in North America one after another, and will bring Xu Guanwu super high profits.

And with the painting of "Jaws 2", Xu Guanwu also got the huge profits he deserved, and later remitted a large amount of these funds to the mainland through secret channels.

Later, when the mainland began to carry out reform and opening up, and to carry out economic experiments in Shenzhen and other places, Xu Guanwu also instructed his media to help blow the news, especially the financial edition of the "Tian Tian Daily", to analyze the bottlenecks that Hong Kong's economy is about to face, analyze the advantages and disadvantages of Hong Kong's economy, and analyze the future way out of Hong Kong's economy.

In the 60s and 70s, Hong Kong's economy rose rapidly, and it quickly transformed from an agrarian society to an industrial society. With its cheap labor and cheap taxes, Hong Kong has made the light industrial products produced in Hong Kong sell all over the world, becoming a veritable factory in the world. For example, leather shoes, toys, clothing, etc., were the main industries in Hong Kong back then.

However, Hong Kong's economy is also facing a lot of difficulties in the future, first of all, the price of raw materials is high, Hong Kong itself does not produce any raw materials, oil, coal, steel, etc., all need to be imported, which makes its manufacturing costs high. When the price of oil rises, its manufacturing sector will be hit hard.

Secondly, the competitive pressure is too great, and the manufacturing industry in Taiwan, Nanyang, South Korea and other places was underdeveloped, so Hong Kong has come to the front. But as these regions have risen one after another to vigorously develop their own manufacturing industries, Hong Kong's manufacturing industry is also under competition.

Moreover, these areas either have large populations, lower human resource costs, or produce various resources to meet domestic demand, or have better geographical locations, etc., which seriously squeeze Hong Kong's original market.

After the transformation into an industrial society, Hong Kong's labor costs began to increase rapidly. In the past, factory workers may only have a few hundred yuan per month, but now it is generally more than 1,000 yuan. (To be continued......)
