"Congratulations! Another Best Actor! ”

"Mr. Chen, congratulations!"

In the luxurious hotel lobby, star actors wander around with wine glasses.

Chen Qiming didn't move, but a large number of people came to the door.

As one of the most popular existences in the current Chinese-speaking region, there are countless people who want to talk to him.

Not to mention that today he won the Best Actor again and became one of the protagonists tonight.

"There are three Golden Horse Awards for Best Actor! I really envy you! ”

Andy Lau walked in front of him with a wine glass and said with envy and jealousy.

Best Actor, this is Andy Lau's obsession.

For many years, his biggest hope was to win a Best Actor.

But the reality is cruel, in recent years, the closest year he has come to Best Actor is 1991's "The Biography of Inspector Lei Luo".

It's a pity that the competition for the best actor that year was unprecedentedly fierce, not only Chow Yun-fat and Stephen Chow, but also Zeng Zhiwei and Lu Liangwei, whose performances exploded.

Since that year, Andy Lau has been getting farther and farther away from Best Actor, and has never been shortlisted again.

"It's just the blessing of the film!"

Chen Qiming smiled and comforted.

In fact, the reason why Andy Lau has been getting farther and farther away from the Best Actor award in recent years is mainly due to his own reasons.

In 92, Andy Lau failed to start a business, and the film company lost too much, causing him to have to work hard to make money.

And if you want to make money, you naturally have to give priority to commercial films.

Generally speaking, if commercial films do not have a particularly large impact on the market, it is not difficult to win awards.

Look at Stephen Chow, in recent years, he has been shortlisted for Best Actor for several consecutive years.

But due to the type of movie, he also did not win the best actor.

Not only him, but also Chow Yun-fat.

Well, in a sense, films with high box office will be shortlisted, but if you want to win an award, it depends on the influence.

Chen Qiming's award in the past two years is also a glossy film genre.

Whether it is "New Love" or "Chongqing Forest", it is actually the scope of literary films.

Among them, "New Love" is more inclined to romance films.

But it's not commercial at all, as you can see from the ending.

Commercial films pay attention to a cool, the protagonist fights monsters and upgrades, and overturns the villain.

Although "New Love" has a high box office, it cannot be classified as a commercial film.

"Anyway, congratulations!"

Andy Lau took a sip of red wine and congratulated again.

The two chatted for a few words, and Andy Lau saw that there were several people waiting around, so he took the initiative to say goodbye and leave.

As soon as Andy Lau left, someone from the crowd who had been paying attention to this side immediately walked towards Chen Qiming.

As soon as the others saw the person coming forward, they immediately paused.

"Mr. Chen! Congratulations! ”

The visitor smiled and clinked glasses with Chen Qiming.

"Aunt Six!"

The person who came is very promising, and it is the current helmsman of TVB TV Fang Yihua, alias Li Menghua, and most of the young people in the circle call her Aunt Liu.

Chen Qiming was not surprised that Fang Yihua came to greet him.

He is now not only an actor and a singer, he is also the owner of a record company, a film company, a theater chain, and a large-scale clothing brand with assets of hundreds of millions.

With all kinds of identities, his status is no longer a simple actor and singer, but an entertainment tycoon who can play chess in Hong Kong and Taiwan.

In the Hong Kong and Taiwan entertainment circles, when it comes to Fang Yihua, everyone has mixed evaluations of her.

She has merit and success, she was once called the evil girl in the Hong Kong film industry, she is self-centered, in TVB, she doesn't like any artist and just let him go.

She slammed the door and bought inferior props, causing the actor to fall from a height and cause serious injuries.

There are also such rumors: if "Shaw Brothers" did not have Fang Yihua, there would be no later "Golden Harvest".

As we all know, Zou Wenhuai was actually a member of Shaw Brothers, and the reason why he founded Golden Harvest was because he was dissatisfied with the business philosophy of some people in Shaw Brothers.

And the person who was dissatisfied was none other than Fang Yihua.

At that time, Fang Yihua had already ascended to the throne and began to point fingers at the Shaw Brothers.

It was under this circumstance that Zou Wenhuai left Shaw Brothers and established Golden Harvest, making Golden Harvest the biggest rival of Shaw Brothers, and finally united with New Arts City to force Shaw Brothers to stop production.

"Got time? Talk? ”

Fang Yihua asked with a smile.

Hearing this, Chen Qiming's eyes flashed.

He heard Fang Yihua's subtext.

The other party didn't simply come to congratulate him, but had business to talk to him.

"This way, please!"

The business that the other party might talk about flashed in his mind, and Chen Qiming took the initiative to invite Fang Yihua to the quiet seat next to him to chat.

"I admire you very much, you have done something that countless people can't do in a lifetime at a young age."

After sitting on the sofa, Fang Yihua praised.

"Thank you! Just a little bit lucky! ”

Chen Qiming said modestly.

"This is not lucky, Ling's musical talent is absolutely rare in the entire Chinese music scene."

Fang Yihua shook his head and said.

After a pause, she said with pity: "It's just that your record company is too small, I think you shouldn't be limited to such a small record company!" ”

Hearing this, Chen Qiming's eyes flashed, "Aunt Six, shouldn't she want to dig me up to Huaxing!" If that's the case, then I'm afraid not, I prefer freedom now! ”

"No!" Fang Yihua shook his head, "I know it's impossible for you to join other record companies." ”

As she spoke, her face became solemn, "I just want to ask, are you interested in the copyright of Huaxing Records?" ”

"The copyright of Huaxing Records?"

Hearing this, Chen Qiming's heart moved.

"Yes! I think you've heard that we're in talks with the South China Morning Post about acquiring Huaxing Records. ”

Fang Yihua explained.

Chen Qiming nodded.

He knew it.

Everyone knows that the boss of TVB is Run Run Shaw, but some people may not know that TVB is actually a large group company, and its equity distribution is very complicated.

Run Run Shaw is just the one with the largest stake in them.

Behind Run Run Shaw, there are many small shareholders, among them, there is a shareholder who not only occupies a lot of TVB shares, but also has a very good strength, even richer than Run Run Shaw.

This shareholder is the current richest man in Malaysia, Kwok Hok Nian.

Kwok Hok Nien is one of Malaysia's most prominent entrepreneurs.

It is known as the "King of Hotels" and the "King of Sugar in Asia".

The name Kwok Henian is not only a household name in Malaysia, but has also become synonymous with wealth and success.

Kwok's Group (Kerry Group) penetrates the world.

Under his leadership, it developed into a vast business empire.

In addition to owning numerous businesses in Malaysia, he also operates in Singapore, Thailand, China, Indonesia, Fiji and Australia. pass through

The business is also very diverse, from sugar cane cultivation, sugar production, flour, feed, oil and fat, mining, to real estate, finance, hotels, industry, plantation, commerce and shipping.

Guo Henian controls 80% of the raw sugar market in Malaysia and 20% of the world sugar market.

In the 70s, Guo He began to enter the hotel industry and established Shangri-La Hotels and Resorts.

Shangri-La Hotels and Resorts is now one of the world's best hotel management groups and the largest hotel group in Asia, with a global footprint.

Since the 90s, Guo He began to settle in Hong Kong, and at the same time, he also began to lay out the industry in Hong Kong.

Not only did he continue to expand his hotel, sugar, real estate and other industries, but he also acquired the South China Morning Post, a well-known newspaper group in Hong Kong, in '93.

In addition, Guo Henian also began to acquire a large number of scattered shares of TVB, and became the second largest shareholder of TVB.

One mountain does not tolerate two tigers, this is a wise saying.

The current TVB, although the Shao family is still the boss and has the management of the entire TVB, the Guo family also has good strength and is staring at the Shao family.

Since two years ago, there have been rumors that the South China Morning Post, owned by the Guo family, has begun to frequently encroach on Huaxing Records.

Recently, there have been rumors that Huaxing Records will be acquired by Nanhua.

"Is it the copyright of all the songs owned by Huaxing?"

Chen Qiming is very interested in song copyright, especially the song copyright of Huaxing Records.

As a former dominant record company in Hong Kong, Huaxing Records has a very large copyright library of songs.

The copyrights of many singers such as Anita Mui and Leslie Cheung are in the hands of Huaxing.

In addition, there are also theme songs for many TVB TV episodes.

For example, "Shanghai Tang", "Ten Thousand Sons and Thousands of Mountains Always Love" and songs from classic TV series such as the Legend of the Condor Heroes.

The copyrights of these songs are all in the hands of Huaxing Records.

It is no exaggeration to say that Huaxing Records is the local record company with the most song copyrights in Chinese-speaking areas.

And song copyright, under normal circumstances, it belongs to the record company is not for sale, it is the biggest asset of a record company.

It's not easy to get these copyrights.

This time, it is also an opportunity for Chen Qiming.

If he can get the copyright of Huaxing Records' songs, he will immediately be able to enrich the copyright library of Qidian Records, making Qidian Records the record company with the most copyrights in the Chinese-speaking region, and can distribute a large number of selected collections of those songs in the copyright.

However, none of these are the most important things for Chen Qiming.

The most important thing for him is the online copyright of these songs.

With so many songs, he can bring a lot of benefits to himself in the future, whether he licenses the songs to an online music platform or creates a music platform himself.

"30 million Hong Kong dollars, if you are interested, we can package the song copyright to you for 30 million Hong Kong dollars!"

Seeing that Chen Qiming was interested, Fang Yihua smiled and spoke.

Hearing this, Chen Qiming's eyes turned, but there was a hesitation on his face, "If it is true that Nanhua acquired Huaxing, then I will not offend Nanhua ...... if I now intervene in taking away the copyright of Huaxing's songs?"

"You don't have to worry about this, if Nanhua wants to completely acquire Huaxing, it will be at least next year, and now Huaxing is still under TVBI, and I have the right to decide the ownership of these copyrights.

Of course, Nanhua will definitely be dissatisfied with you because of this matter.

However, you shouldn't give up such a big benefit because of this! ”

Fang Yihua directly interrupted Chen Qiming and said.

glanced at Fang Yihua thoughtfully.

Chen Qiming probably understands why Fang Yihua wants to sell the song copyright of Huaxing Records.

It's purely to block the Guo family.

Huaxing Records obviously did not really want to sell Fang Yihua, it was completely eaten by the Guo family due to TVB's internal strife, to the point that it had to be sold.

And Fang Yihua obviously didn't want Nanhua to make a lot of money, so he had the idea of selling the copyright of the song.

To be honest, the current Huaxing, if the song copyright is removed, the only thing that has value is none other than those singers under it, such as Anita Mui and others, and the label is valuable.

The so-called label refers to the company's logo name, as well as its record production house.

In this day and age, labels are very valuable.

When many fans buy records, they look at the label.

The quality of the records produced by different labels varies.

Huaxing Records has been in business for many years, and it has long been ingrained in Hong Kong, and many fans will not even look at who sings the song when they buy records, and they will buy it for the sign of Huaxing Records.

"30 million is too much, and my recent continuous big moves, the funds are already insufficient."

Chen Qiming looked at Fang Yihua and said.

30 million is actually not too expensive, especially for Chen Qiming.

He is well aware of the value of the copyrights to these songs.

But it's one thing to know the future value, it's another thing to buy at a price.

If he can bargain, Chen Qiming will definitely not get any more points.

Hearing Chen Qiming's offer, Fang Yihua couldn't help frowning, "Thirty million is not much, this is the market price."

The song copyrights you acquired in Treasure Island are more expensive than the copyrights of these songs in Huaxing! ”

"Ahem......"

Hearing this, Chen Qiming was a little embarrassed.

He takes copyright very seriously.

Therefore, after the establishment of Starting Point Records, he began to frequently contact some small record companies in Baodao, and bought the copyright of a batch of songs at a price higher than the market price.

originally thought that this thing was done secretly, but I didn't expect Fang Yihua to know.

"Twenty-five million! This is my bottom line, after all, because of this batch of copyrights, I may offend Nanhua and the Guo family.

You know, the Guo family's ability is very large in Asia, and if I am targeted, the loss may be even greater. ”

Chen Qiming said under the pressure of moving out of Guo's house.

"I'll think about it and I'll give you an answer as soon as possible!"

Fang Yihua pondered a little and said.

"I'm waiting for your news!" Hearing this, Chen Qiming knew that this business should be inseparable, so he couldn't help but raise his glass.

Fang Yihua touched his glass with him, then stood up, glanced around, and couldn't help but smile: "It seems that you are very popular, so I won't bother you for now." ”

"By the way, you just know about it, I don't want to get up tomorrow morning and see a lot of news about it."

Perhaps because she was afraid that Chen Qiming would reveal this to the media, she confessed when she left.

"Don't worry, I'm counting on this business to be done!"

Chen Qiming said with a smile.

Seeing Fang Yihua leave, Chen Qiming's smile gradually disappeared, and he stared at the wine glass in front of him and began to think.

He was thinking about whether he would really offend the Guo family because of this incident.

It's not that you're afraid, it's about being prepared.

The Guo family is not small, if it really starts targeting itself because of this matter, if you are not prepared, then you may be very embarrassed.

"What are you thinking?"

A pleasant voice sounded in his ears, and along with the sound, a figure sat next to him, and the faint smell of perfume wafted into his nose, making Chen Qiming couldn't help but take a deep breath.

"Miss Zhou!"

Raising his head and seeing the person coming, a trace of surprise flashed in Chen Qiming's eyes.

The person who came was none other than Zhou Huimin, who had taken the initiative to greet him at the Academy Awards before.

"Didn't think about anything, a little thing! Miss Zhou actually took the initiative to come and chat with me, aren't you afraid that your vinegar king boyfriend will be jealous? ”

Chen Qiming teased with a smile.

Vinegar King is Chen Qiming's nickname for Ni Zhen.

This guy is a vinegar jar that will be overturned in a dozen.

"It's my own freedom to talk to who I want, he can't control it!

How? Not welcome me? ”

Zhou Huimin tilted her head and asked.

"Of course not, a beautiful lady like Miss Zhou can sit next to me and chat with me, it's my honor!"

Although I don't know what Zhou Huimin is crazy about, Chen Qiming will not refuse her accosting.

Anyway, it's a beauty!

"Your mouth is so sweet, no wonder so many women like you!"

Zhou Huimin laughed.

"It's a pity that there is no Miss Zhou among them!"

Chen Qiming hasn't talked much with Zhou Huimin, but women like to listen to good words, and he still understands this.

"Ming Tsai!"

didn't talk to Zhou Huimin for a few words, and a voice that made Chen Qiming couldn't help but scold MMP in his heart sounded.

Then the tall Li Jiaxin walked over quickly and sat directly on the other side of Chen Qiming, with one hand naturally on his arm.

"I've been looking for you for a while, so you're here, are you free at night? Let's go eat together! ”

Li Jiaxin's eyes stayed on Zhou Huimin for a moment, and then said coquettishly.

"Yes!"

Although he was secretly scolding Li Jiaxin for coming at the wrong time, Chen Qiming still didn't give her a face.

This woman is still good to him.

Last time at her house, Chen Qiming had a lot of fun, and she almost answered everything, which made Chen Qiming feel very good.

"Is Miss Zhou free? Do you want to be together? ”

Of course, Chen Qiming didn't forget Zhou Huimin next to him, and looked up and asked.

"Forget it! I've got something going on tonight! ”

Zhou Huimin was a little uncomfortable with Li Jiaxin's arrival, and after chatting for a few words, she took the initiative to stand up.

"You talk, I'll go to the bathroom!"

"Shhh...... Why are you ......?"

Looking at Zhou Huimin's small round buttocks, Chen Qiming suddenly felt a pain in his waist and hurriedly looked at Li Jiaxin.

"That night, he said that he only loved me, and in just a few days, he put his mind on other women, and you men don't have a good thing!"

Li Jiaxin's face was a little unsightly.

"I've been sitting here, and she's only been sitting down for less than a minute!"

Chen Qiming explained.

After speaking, he said in a low voice: "Don't be angry, it's a big deal to go to your house tonight......"

"Who wants you to go to my house!"

Li Jiaxin withdrew the arm that was holding Chen Qiming's hand and said with a disgusted expression.

"Huh...... I don't know who kept calling me that night...... If you don't want to, then I'll go home tonight! ”

Chen Qiming laughed in a low voice.

As he spoke, he stood up, and someone came again.

It's Xiang Huaqiang!
