161 Planning of Hong Kong TVB

"There is a risk, but high risk also means high profit, if the company wants to develop, it has to take a certain risk, in addition to the risk, grasp the quality, but also hedge a little." Chen Zhiwen nodded and said.

Doing business, naturally there are risks, doing the automotive industry, the risk is greater, investment requires a large amount of money to build a factory to engage in research and development, but also a certain amount of market costs, if there is a quality problem in the future, resulting in the need for a recall of the automobile factory, it is enough to make a medium-sized auto parts company vitality, or even bankruptcy.

Therefore, many auto parts companies have developed for many years, the scale has been like that, stable as an old dog, and some companies are larger, if the management level is high, good quality control, can develop rapidly, if there is a problem, it may go out of business, which is to see the boss's style of doing things.

This is the case in the automotive industry, where the profits are definitely high, but the risks are also high.

However, for Chen Zhiwen, this risk is not too big, continue to spend money to enter the parts industry of these automobiles, which is also part of the automobile industry, although it is only parts, but among the world's top 500 in later generations, there are many auto parts companies, many powerful enough to sit on an equal footing with large automobile companies.

Although for the core technology of the car, his prophetic role has no advantage, but auto parts are different, and when electronic technology develops to a certain extent, all kinds of cars need to install all kinds of electronic products, especially auxiliary safety, car entertainment and so on, in the 70s, everyone is basically starting from scratch, as long as they continue to develop in this field, they have the opportunity to become a parts company with a certain right to speak.

It's just that this kind of industry that can become a giant by relying on technical background, the time it takes to develop is measured in ten years, and now it is just a test of the water, even if the development is good, it may not begin to pay off until the 90s, compared to the United States' game business, the future of electronic computers, Hong Kong's real estate and even some future investments in the mainland, the return rate is too low.

However, once stabilized successfully, it will not be as easy to be eliminated as electronic products, even if it is the rise of electric vehicles, as long as the gearbox is not developed, the others can also live very moisturizing, besides, the gearbox is such a thing, how many car factories can not develop it, Mercedes-Benz gearbox, there are often all kinds of problems, and he will not spend money stupidly to develop it.

"In that case, when the time is right, I will visit several major car companies in Europe." Best agreed, in fact, as long as you are willing to spend money, at least it is not difficult to catch up with the relationship between other people's purchasing departments, and then you can do what you should do, step by step to enter the supply chain of others, as long as it continues, your own technology is not very bad, and you will always have a chance to succeed.

The core factor is to catch up with the senior management of a large car factory, which may cost more than investing in a production line, plus the possibility of failure, which also makes the previous BITZER and most general companies dare not operate in this way.

"Okay, when things are settled on my side, we can discuss the details." Chen Zhiwen said with a smile, the matter here is naturally to discuss the acquisition with the current shareholders of BITZER, in fact, basically Lei Shengli and Deutsche Bank are also discussing the same, just waiting for Chen Zhiwen, the boss, to confirm.

After coming out of BITZER, Chen Zhiwen and Lei Shengli returned to a five-star hotel in the center of Munich, but the five-star here is not a high-rise building, but a castle building, surrounded by several seven- or eight-storey buildings. On the exterior walls, there are many carvings with a large number of images of Christ.

There is a small river about 20 meters wide next to the hotel, from time to time you can see a few rafts with tourists shuttling under the various bridge piers, on the grass by the river, there are many family Germans eating together, ubiquitous pigeons are picking up all kinds of delicacies left by humans, many children are also interacting with various things, a handful of biscuit crumbs are scattered, which can easily attract dozens of pigeons.

"This German winter is not as cold as I thought." On the path not far from the river, a man and a woman walked side by side.

"The Atlantic Warm Current is more powerful, and the winter in Europe is not very cold, much better than in the United States." Chen Zhiwen smiled and said.

On the world map, it seems that the dimension of Europe is not very high, but in fact the map is flattened, the latitude of Europe, in fact, is about the same as the northeast of China, Northern Europe and the Siberia of Damao, the northeast of the interior, the winter here will theoretically be very cold and cold, but Europe has a natural air conditioner, the Atlantic warm current from the equator eventually flows to the north of Europe, this heat flow can suppress the coldest Arctic cold current, so that the north of Europe will not become like Siberia.

In later generations, Europe called environmental protection every day, one reason is that after the early development of environmental pollution, it used this reason to restrict the development of developing countries, and the second is that if global warming is removed, the Arctic glaciers melt, and a large amount of freshwater ice enters the Atlantic Ocean, which will seriously affect the sea temperature and salinity of the North Atlantic, which will affect the route and intensity of the North Atlantic Warm Current.

It is said that scientists in the 21st century have observed that the North Atlantic Warm Current brings 15% less heat to Europe than a hundred years ago, which is a fatal hazard to the whole of Europe.

"Yes, it was cold in New York a few days ago, and the temperature dropped directly to more than ten degrees below zero, but fortunately you gave my house enough heating." The woman said with a smile.

"So how are you studying in the United States? You're graduating early next year, right? I'm going to let you do things for me when I get back to Hong Kong. Chen Zhiwen said with a smile.

"What to do? In Hutchison? Or Midea, Red Bull? The woman seemed to be a little too hot, took off her scarf, and revealed a more mature face than two years ago, which was Zhang Yunxue, the most obedient person by Chen Zhiwen's side.

"Neither, TVB, you know?" Chen Zhiwen said.

"Wireless? Are you going to buy TVB? Zhang Yunxue asked in surprise.

"It's not about buying, it's already." Chen Zhiwen said: "The previous Hutchison Group, in fact, is the major shareholder of wireless, the wireless, itself is three British-funded groups invested and established, respectively, Hutchison, HSBC and another name called the life of the British foreign bank, now control the wireless TV station Li Xiaohe, but just a worker, some time ago, I arranged for someone to buy the wireless shares in their hands from the times of life, and now Hutchison has more than 60% of the shares of wireless. ”

"Then Hutchison has taken over TVB?" Zhang Yunxue asked.

Chen Zhiwen shook his head and said: "No, the original three British companies have signed a paper contract with Li Xiaohe to grant management rights, Li Xiaohe did not make a big business mistake, if TVB has no serious losses, the three British companies will not interfere with Li Xiaohe's operation, although this contract is not really without loopholes, but I don't want to make trouble in the whole Hong Kong because of this kind of trivial matter, thinking that I Chen Zhiwen bullied people who are dying, after all, Li Xiaohe's body is about to die, and it is estimated that he will not live for a few years, and when he dies, The contract will naturally be invalidated, and when the time comes, I will arrange for someone to take over the wireless. ”

"So that's the case, but I've heard many people say that Shao Yifu is also waiting for Li Xiaohe to die and is ready to take over wireless?" Zhang Yunxue said with a smile.

"Don't worry about him, it's just a movie, it's just a Hong Kong movie, and it can make a lot of money in the eyes of ordinary people." Chen Zhiwen said with a smile: "I have a big plan for wireless, and people like Shao Yifu can't meet my requirements." ”

After coming to Hong Kong for a few years, he basically didn't deal with people in the entertainment industry, partly because he needed to keep a low profile before, and the other was that he couldn't look down on this market at all, how much money can he make from making a movie? Millions of box office dollars have to be slaughtered by the channel side, which is the same logic as Hollywood.

But TVB is different, this is a media channel, millions of people in Hong Kong basically watch it every day, as long as you control TVB, you can control the entrance to everyone's information.

However, the achievements of wireless in his previous life still can't meet his needs, what he needs is at least a TV station with a certain influence in Asia, and therefore, Hutchison will inevitably accept TVB.

The prophet golden finger is of little use in running a television station, but a large amount of capital investment is still useful, and the satellite television developed by Li Jiacheng's youngest son in later generations is a very good direction, and with satellite as a communication channel, it can radiate the whole of Asia.

However, there is also a prerequisite for this, that is, there is enough quality content, and when a large number of high-quality TV dramas and variety shows appear, they can cover Asia through satellite signals.

"He's one of the ten richest people in Hong Kong, alas? Not up to the mark? Zhang Yunxue asked curiously.

"That was 10 years ago, and not anymore." Chen Zhiwen shook his head and said: "He can't keep up with the times anymore, and he has a strong foundation before." ”

Shao Yifu is indeed very capable and professional, which is the fundamental reason why he can succeed.

But the biggest problem is that Shao Yifu's picking on employees is also famous in Hong Kong, and the more famous founder of Golden Harvest got out of Shaw Brothers because of money, and also missed Bruce Lee, Xu Guanzhong, Jackie Chan and other superstars because he was too picky.

This kind of person can only keep the wireless, but whenever there is a really capable person in history to buy Li's (ATV), the wireless may also be beaten.

"Then I'll go to Hong Kong next year to work in wireless?" Zhang Yunxue asked.

"Yes, but as long as Li Xiaohe is still there, I am also a major shareholder, you go and be a director representative, just express our attitude towards Huang and Huang to the outside world, and then spend a few years to learn a little more practical knowledge of management, these are more meaningful, in college, are all theories." Chen Zhiwen continued.

More than a year ago, Chen Zhiwen chose Zhang Yunxue and let her become one of his assistants in business and life in the future, and the resume of graduating from the University of Hong Kong was not enough, so he sent her to the American University to study for a master's degree in business administration, and at the same time as an eye, to observe some of the development of his branch in the United States.

"That's not bad, I'm tired of staying in the United States, it's so boring, it's really boring to study abroad." Zhang Yunxue said with a smile.

"Lu Xun once said a word." Chen Zhiwen said: "If a person is not hungry, there are countless troubles, only when he is hungry, then there is only one trouble, you are not hungry, or you go to study as an ordinary Hong Kong student and work and study in the United States, so that you will not be bored." ”

"That's not going to work." Zhang Yunxue immediately said coquettishly: "Brother Wen, aren't you going to the United States after a while?" How many female friends do I know over there who are also interested in meeting you? ”

"White?" Chen Zhiwen asked.

"Yes." Zhang Yunxue said.

"Okay, forgive you." Chen Zhiwen nodded and said.
