Chu knocked on the door and entered He Yisheng's office, and saw that he was sorting out a stack of documents.

He Yisheng hurriedly got up, "Boss, I'm about to report to you last month's sales and finances. ”

Chu waved his hand forward and sat opposite He Yisheng, "Sit." ”

He Yisheng hurriedly sat down, took out a report and said, "Boss, this week's sales of the newspaper have not only stabilized at around 40,000 copies.

On the third day of the release of the Serpentine Trickster, the 40,000 copies printed by the newspaper were sold out that morning.

I made the decision, urgently printed 5,000 points, and before 6 o'clock in the afternoon, after calling the newspaper to inquire, I got the news that it was basically sold out at four or five o'clock.

Looking at it like this, it is very likely to break through to 50,000 daily sales next month. ”

"Very good", Chu Xiangqian's face was happy after hearing it, "It seems that while the newspaper has a good effect on promoting the movie, a good movie can also increase the sales of the newspaper in turn."

In this case, the construction of the building is now on the agenda. You can do things like finding land first, then designers, construction companies, and so on. ”

He Yisheng's face was ecstatic, the staff of the newspaper worked so hard and desperately, in order to wait for the sales to meet the boss's requirements, and really start building residential buildings!

Now that the boss has made a decision and determined the advance preparations, the enthusiasm of the employees at the newspaper will definitely be higher next month.

"Understand, boss, I am busy with the main work of the newspaper in the morning, and in the afternoon I will discuss the preliminary plan for building the building with a few high-level executives."

Chu Xiangqian nodded indifferently, anyway, the money for building the staff building depends on the future profit of the newspaper.

If the employee really buys the house of the staff building, he has to sign a 10-year contract that is not allowed to leave.

If you really want to leave your job, you have to make up for the price difference after the price increase.

At the newspaper office, it was busy until more than 11 o'clock, Chu looked forward at his watch, and then got up to leave.

When I returned to my office and looked at it, Fei Fei's chick was still dozing off, so I simply ignored her.

Out of the building, drive to the backbone.

When I arrived at the restaurant, as soon as I entered the private room, I saw Lin Jiu, who looked exactly like Uncle Ying.

And more than a dozen people such as Sanjiangshui, Guo Zhenhua, Hong Sanbao, and Camel saw the boss coming, and they all got up to greet each other.

After a meal, Chu Xiangqian, who had talked a lot with Lin Jiu, couldn't help but feel relieved.

Although Lin Jiu agreed to the errand of doing things, he hinted several times that those Taoist priests and Dharma priests were businessmen who had a lively atmosphere during red and white affairs.

Of course, Chu Xiangqian could hear this hint, and when he had eaten almost, he pointed to Guo Zhenhua and Hong Sanbao and said, "The company's plan in the future is naturally to make persistent efforts and let Ah Long be the protagonist again and make a drunken boxing film." ”

Guo Zhenhua was overjoyed, after the release of Snake Fist, although a lot of limelight was stolen by Chu Xiangqian's supporting role.

But who made him the boss, and the real kung fu is indeed much better than himself.

And he is more handsome than himself.

Guo Zhenhua doesn't know how to be jealous if he wants to be jealous, but after becoming famous, his mentality is also a little different.

I used to think that as long as there was filming, it didn't matter if it was the protagonist or not. even felt that the pressure of being the protagonist was too great, and it was better to be a supporting role.

But after becoming famous, the feeling of being touted made him want to continue the scenery.

This is also one of the reasons why Guo Zhenhua did not hesitate much when he was a godfather a few days ago.

He Guanchang also revealed that in the company's next plan, the boss has determined that he will be the protagonist and continue to make movies.

Now listening to the boss personally propose, Guo Zhenhua hurriedly got up, poured wine with a wine bottle, and even Jingchu went forward with three glasses of wine.

Chu Xiangqian has never been cowardly in the matter of drinking, and after drinking with Guo Zhenhua, he said with a smile, "Ah Long, I already have the script, let's go to the company in the afternoon to talk carefully." ”

Guo Zhenhua's mouth couldn't close when he smiled.

When other people saw this, of course there were people who were jealous, but there were really no people who hated Guo Zhenhua.

This group of people is not handsome, and a few of them say that crooked melons and cracked dates are no problem, but it makes Guo Zhenhua look a little handsome.

Chu Xiangqian then pointed at Hong Sanbao and said, "Sanbao, you continue to be the action director of Ah Long's movie, and this time bring Ah Jiu and the camel."

Although the kung fu of the two of them is like that in my eyes, the company will not be able to just wait for Aaron's movie in the future.

After all, where is the theater chain, it will take 12 or even 18 or 20 movies a year to keep the theater from being released without movies.

Cultivating people early is also a brainstorming experience, and you may be able to design better fighting plots and jokes. ”

Hong Sanbao naturally has no problems at all, except that the salary given by Chu Xiangqian is high.

In terms of seniority, he still has to call Chu Qianqian uncle.

This relationship is in this era, Chu Xiangqian is really okay, find something wrong with him, and beat him.

And after the fight, outsiders will give a thumbs up and praise Chu for doing a good job as this uncle.

Lin Jiu and Camel are very happy, one of the two was originally an actor, and the other relied on the set of Diamond Hill to eat.

Over time, Camel himself actually had the idea of becoming an actor.

It's just that the film company before that, where would he be willing to invite a red stick like him to film.

The two of them hurriedly got up, learned from Guo Zhenhua, and toasted Chu Xiangqian three times.

Chu Xiangqian didn't drink three cups with him this time, but only drank one.

Lin Jiu and Camel didn't think there was a problem at all, but Guo Zhenhua was secretly happy in his heart, it seemed that he still had a lot of weight in the boss's heart.

But he didn't want Chu to move forward and continued, "Sanbao, your uncle and Master Hong are incompatible, and you can do Ah Long's play well."

When I see the finished film after filming, if I can be satisfied, I, who is my uncle, will also praise you as the protagonist. And I've got the script in mind. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned.

When I came back to my senses and looked at Hong Sanbao's expression, it was called envy and jealousy.

But thinking about the relationship between Uncle Ren and Chu Xiangqian, he could only sigh in his heart, the secret Dao people are really angry compared to people.

Chu Xiangqian naturally looked at everyone's thoughts, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, maybe in the future, some of you can be the protagonist."

Even if you don't choose, you can play a supporting role or a dragon and tiger martial artist, and my boss guarantees that everyone will have a job every month, and the salary will never be in arrears. ”

More than a dozen people who didn't even know the names of Chu Xiangqian couldn't help laughing.

Everyone still has a lot of trust in Chu Xiangqian's character, and besides, the boss opens a movie theater, which is 7 as soon as it opens.

Millions have been spent, and there is no reason to owe everyone the one or two hundred dollars in wages.

And this salary is not only enough for them to support themselves, but also to subsidize their families.

If the crew starts filming, lunch can still be solved in the crew, and one meat, one vegetarian and one box of rice, and two portions of food can be eaten if you are not full, which is already the only one for each company.

Everyone hurriedly got up and shouted to Chu Xiangqian, "Thank you boss for taking care of you." ”

Out of the backbone, Chu Xiangqian instructed Sanjiangshui to let people clean up all the shanty huts on the side of the weather station as soon as possible. Then I drove to the film company first.

As for Guo Zhenhua, they naturally made their own rickshaw and returned to the company.

Fortunately, the film company is in Kowloon, and it is not far from backbone.

When he arrived at the office rented by the company, Chu Xiangqian disliked that this place was a little small as soon as he got out of the car.

The dark passage still has to find a separate building.

Now it's just a crew, and the company is already small. If there are two or three crews working for the company in the future, when there is no movie to make, so many people are crowded together, if outsiders know about it, they will definitely say that they are stingy as a boss.

When I entered the company, I wanted to call someone to call Wrinkle Huai and He Guanchang over.

Unexpectedly, before entering his office, he saw Wrinkled Huai, He Guanchang accompanied Lu Guohua of Cathay Pacific Cinema Line and a middle-aged man, walking out of Wrinkled Huai's general manager's office.

As soon as the four of them saw Chu Xiangqian, they hurriedly greeted him.

Only then did Chu Xiangqian know that this middle-aged man with a kind face was a well-known troupe owner in Nanyang.

This time, it was because He Guanchang mentioned to Lu Guohua last time that the theater planned to ask someone to move the opera on the stage to the big screen.

Lu Guohua remembered it in his heart, and mentioned it to the local troupe owner when he was dealing with the release of the serpentine trickster in Nanyang.

After the serpentine trickster also exploded at the box office in Nanyang, this Boss Liu found Lu Guohua.

One of the two was thinking about the next movie after the movie was released steadily, and the other followed Lu Guohua to Hong Kong Island to talk about filming opera movies.

After Chu Xiangqian listened, he was naturally very polite to Boss Liu.

It's just that in his heart, he actually prefers to invite troupes from Nanguang or other provinces to come to Hong Kong to film.

However, Boss Liu is also Chinese in the end, and people took the initiative to come to the door, so after Chu Xiangqian discussed a few words with Wrinkle Huai and He Guanchang, he still listened to their suggestions, and cooperated with Boss Liu in the first step of opera movies.

After all, this can be regarded as giving Lu Guohua face.

Seeing off the elated Boss Liu, Chu Xiangqian took Lu Guohua, Wrinkle Huai, and He Guanchang into his office.

The first thing he said when he sat down was to Wrinkle Huai, "Ah Huai, remember to find a better building or a larger independent building, I plan to buy it as the office of the film company."

In the future, the company will have more crews, and more offices will be needed.

And if you always rent an office, it is better to pay it all at once, so as not to pay others every year, and you will feel unhappy when you think about it. ”

Wrinkles naturally have no opinion, it is a good thing that the boss is rich, and it is also a good thing that the company looks more magnificent.

Just thinking about where there was a suitable building, Lu Guohua on the side was moved.

"Chu Sheng, I know a place that should be suitable for your company to be an office."

Chu Xiangqian looked over in surprise, and faintly felt in his heart that Lu Guohua came over today, in addition to telling himself about the release of the serpentine trickster in Nanyang Cathay Cinemas, he might also have come to ask for his help.

"I naturally believe in Lu Sheng's vision."

Lu Guohua was relieved and said with a smile, "I have a friend from Nanyang who came to Hong Kong Island to develop, and he has a two-story property in the Po Fung Building next to Kowloon Park, three blocks north of The Peninsula Hotel.

There are a total of 1,100 square meters, and it is also the 8th and 9th floors.

It's just that I've been in a bit of trouble recently, and I'm in a hurry to ask for money, and the original price of about 1.6 million can now be bought for about 1.5 million.

If Chu Sheng is free, why don't we go and see it now? ”

Chu Xiangqian immediately became interested, thinking about it carefully, although Kowloon Park is not prosperous now, the potential for appreciation in the future is not small.

And the current cheap housing prices in Tsim Sha Tsui mean that the future increase will be even higher.

Wrinkle Huai also knew the building, and after thinking about it, he asked Lu Guohua, "Lu Sheng, is it the building that was only completed at the end of last year, and I heard that there was an accident?" ”

Lu Guohua's expression was a little stiff, but this is a fact, just ask someone to know.

With a sigh, he said, "That building has a total of 10 floors, covering an area of 550 square meters, which is not a big size, so it was built with 10 floors.

Although the location is not prosperous, it is not necessarily a good thing for your company to have a strong business atmosphere.

And because it is not in the commercial area, the whole building is only worth 8 million. ”

Wrinkled Huai and He Guanchang couldn't help but hesitate.

Whether it is now or in the future, Hong Kong people have always believed in those things that gods and gods talk about.

The crew should worship God when the film is turned on, and the mage should be asked to calculate the auspicious time and auspicious day when the building opens.

Since there has been an accident in this building, not to mention that someone has bought the whole building, even if the tenants who are interested in renting the building will directly reduce it by half.

But Chu Xiangqian felt in his heart that if he could, he could buy this building directly.

Of course, if you pay 8 million at once, you can take out the money, but if you really take it out, you won't have much cash in your hand.

It's better to find a bank loan.

And the cost performance is actually not high, 8 million to go to Causeway Bay, an area that has not really formed a business environment, can buy 200 door-to-face houses.

But things are not so simple, Chu Xiangqian is willing to increase the price by 5% to buy 200 stores, but there are not many who can really buy.

Taking a step back, once you do this, the price of those front houses will double the next day.

So when encountering a good property, Chu Xiangqian has always bought it as long as it is suitable.

And the 1.5 million two-storey 1,100-square-meter 8th and 9th floors are used as office locations for film companies, which is okay when you think about it.

Wrinkles thought about it for a while, but it didn't feel cost-effective.

Seeing that Chu Xiangqian was silent, he hurriedly persuaded, "Boss, Central is prosperous enough." But a three-story building covering an area of 200 square meters over there is only a million.

The three floors add up, with an area of 900 square meters, and the location is better than that of Tsim Sha Tsui.

And 1.5 million is enough to buy a set and a half, or a small building of more than 400 square meters in Central. ”

When Chu Xiangqian heard this, he also came back to his senses, this is the same as the magic capital in the 90s, and the house price in Puxi is four or five thousand.

But in Pudong, which is across the river, no one wants 7 or 800 square meters.

Hong Kong Island and Kowloon are also separated by only one Victoria Bay, but Tsim Sha Tsui now houses a few thousand. Opposite Central, Wan Chai a set of tens of thousands.

Wealthy people also prefer to live in Hong Kong rather than Kowloon.

Chu Xiangqian secretly scolded himself, with 8 million, he could buy seven or eight townhouses in Central.

It means that half of the street is your own, so why do you have to stare at a building?

Choosing between a high-rise building and a land that occupies more land, Chu Xiangqian just chose more land. and not how tall the building is.

looked at Lu Guohua and said, "I'm sorry Lu Sheng, Ah Huai is right, I would rather buy a townhouse in Central, and the return on investment is greater than that building." ”

Lu Guohua sighed in his heart, was silent for a few seconds, looked at Chu Qianqian and said, "Chu Sheng, let me make a call?" ”
