Chapter 240: Worth the Fare
Wan Chai, the Du Lao Chi Nightclub on To Lo Chi Road, the reason why the Du Lo Chi Nightclub is called this is because it is located on Du Lo Chi Road, which should now be the largest nightclub in Hong Kong, pressing the original Oriental Dance Hall under him.
In a luxurious box in Du Laozhi's nightclub, Zhao Hongjun said with a smile to Cai Guoxiong, a member of the Legislative Council who was sitting on the top and tasting red wine: "Cai Sheng, I asked my British classmates to collect this red wine for me, and it tastes good?"
Forty-seven-year-old Cai Guoxiong gently shook the goblet, letting the red wine swirl and shake in the glass, and showed a smile to Zhao Hongjun: "It smells like the best of French Burgundy, your friend is really good, although there is no wine label, but I guess this red wine will cost at least six or seven thousand Hong Kong dollars to get it." ”
"Cai Sheng, you have to do it if you like it, I'll wait for the waiter to help you put it away, you take it back and drink it slowly, people like me who rush the manuscript all day long can't drink red wine, cow chews peonies, only Cai Sheng, you people who ask for the people's lives all day long need to drink some red wine often to help sleep." Zhao Hongjun heard Cai Guoxiong praise this red wine that he had only obtained more than twice the original price, and hurriedly spoke.
Cai Guoxiong nodded: "I'm not polite with you, I'll take this wine back and drink it slowly, what is it for the people to drink red wine to help you sleep, you don't know, I was born to drink red wine, I have been used to it for many years, and it has nothing to do with the identity of the parliamentarian." ”
"The point will not matter, I don't know that you Cai Sheng is now busy participating in the introduction of the green paper on politics, really asking for the people's life, you went to Central last time with illness to call on everyone to pay attention to government financial expenditure, make the finance transparent, the praise from the outside is endless, the citizens call you Cai Qingtian!" Zhao Hongjun heard Cai Guoxiong humble, and immediately talked about Cai Guoxiong's recent more satisfactory show.
Cai Guoxiong listened to Zhao Hongjun's words, although his face was faint, but there was a smile overflowing in the corners of his eyes, the last time he went to Central with illness, it was indeed a very positive public relations behavior of his recently, in this matter, Zhao Hongjun contributed a lot, "Daily Daily" followed up on this matter in the newspaper for a week, so that his exposure lasted for a long time, and the big boss who supported him was also very satisfied with Cai Guoxiong's voice this time.
Hearing Zhao Hongjun talk about this, Cai Guoxiong took a sip of red wine and put down his glass: "The text of the newspaper last time was good, although the praise was a bit excessive, but it was also pertinent, and it really made the people pay attention to the financial expenditure of the British government in Hong Kong this time.
The so-called "getting the public to pay attention to the issue of the British government's fiscal expenditure in Hong Kong" is purely bluffing, and the point is to let the public remember the name of Cai Guoxiong.
Zhao Hongjun adjusted his breathing, and said after considering the words: "That's the case, you also know Cai Sheng, I am also a little well-known in the Hong Kong newspaper industry, and I have always been straightforward in doing things, recently an old friend's newspaper published a news, Hong Kong's salty and wet magazine "Men's Weekly" actually flowed into the campus, and many students were **** I hope to attract the attention of the relevant departments, and cooperate with the Hong Kong Magazine Association to issue relevant drafts or regulations, otherwise let the situation develop, the consequences are unimaginable, if our children are exposed to this kind of magazine at a young age, we will be parents like this?"
Cai Guoxiong nodded disapprerovingly, he thought that he would not believe that Zhao Hongjun really couldn't get used to seeing the salty and wet pictorial flowing into the campus, but there must be this reason, it is nothing more than interests, Zhao Hongjun's role in himself is still quite big, at least when he needs to speak out, he is always the first to jump out to support himself, many years of relationship, it is not too much to help him by speaking out, not to mention that this reason is definitely just right, even if he is too angry because of anger, it is reasonable, after all, it involves minors and education issues。
"What is the sound outside now?, everyone has a good opinion about this magazine?" Cai Guoxiong hugged the back of his head with both hands, leaned back on the sofa, and chose a posture that showed his status and comfort, looking at Zhao Hongjun and asked.
Zhao Hongjun put his hands on his knees and sat up straight: "Of course, the press circles are blind, and the members of the Parent-Teacher Association have also expressed their indignation, believing that this kind of magazine should not appear in Hong Kong, and even if it does, it needs to be constrained by a special industry standard. ”
"When there are more voices outside, I will stand up and say, salty and wet magazines, it's not that no one is allowed to rely on magazines to make money, but money also has to talk about methods, this young boy named Huo Dongjun, the idea is too simple, I really want him to pay attention to it. Cai Guoxiong's expression was leisurely and gave the answer that Zhao Hongjun needed.
"Thank you Cai Sheng for supporting me, thank you. Zhao Hongjun's face was slightly excited, and he thanked Cai Guoxiong repeatedly.
Cai Guoxiong is willing to speak, Zhao Hongjun seems to have seen the scene of "Men's Weekly" being taken off the shelves, the market is completely vacant, how can the people left behind this cake eat, Huo Dongjun, Liang Jiarong and other people who left the scene have no chance to interfere.
"If you don't have anything to do, you go first, and I'll talk to Ah Guang for a few words. Cai Guoxiong waved his hand, and after giving the answer, he asked Zhao Hongjun to leave.
Zhao Hongjun knew that Cai Guoxiong was waiting for the owner of this nightclub to pick a beautiful girl to send it, since he had already received a reply, it would be an eyesore to stay, so he stood up and said thank you respectfully and said goodbye, and then went out of the box, and the nightclub owner who had been waiting in the corridor in the distance led a pair of beautiful girls with excellent temperament and appearance to see Zhao Hongjun come out, and walked over with a smile on his face, and the boss Sun Chongguang also nodded to Zhao Hongjun.
Zhao Hongjun smiled in return, neither of them spoke, passing by, Zhao Hongjun sighed, after all, he is not as good as Sun Chongguang in Cai Guoxiong's heart, after all, Sun Chongguang is worth a little more, not to mention doing women's business, women who respect Cai Guoxiong can change a batch in three or two days, in the end, he is just holding a pen in his hand.
But it doesn't matter, as long as "Men's Weekly" is defeated by himself this time, even if he is not as good as Sun Chongguang in the future, he can be regarded as a literati boss with real financial resources.
......
When Zhao Hongjun asked Cai Guoxiong to perform his three tricks of trying to force Huo Dongjun's "Men's Weekly" to stop, the dialogue between Huo Dongjun and Lu Zhaotang also began to change from the original Lu Zhaotang's school examination to a conversation, since Huo Dongjun's brain is flexible enough, then Lu Zhaotang can talk to him about this issue, a smart young man, help him this time, how to deal with himself in the future, he should be very clear.
"The timing of your choice is very clever, of course, what I said about Zhao Hongjun will find parliamentarians or big people to speak out, but it is just a conjecture, not necessarily, but this conjecture is the worst situation I can think of, parliamentarians speak out, the magazine association and the government must pay attention, Hong Kong is a very wonderful city, the government is afraid of parliamentarians, what about parliamentarians? is afraid of the public, the citizens are afraid of the law, the law is afraid of the lawyer, and the lawyer serves the big man or the rich, this is a unique cycle, can you think that it is very good to make a move after the parliamentarian speaks, then we can continue to talk about it, after the parliamentarian speaks out, your means?" Lu Zhaotang tilted his head slightly, giving Huo Dongjun an attitude that he was attentive to listening to Huo Dongjun say the means.
Huo Dongjun stopped playing with his cigar and was not silent for too long, but after a few seconds, he said: "Before the parliamentarian speaks, I will contact the distribution association, and when he speaks, I will issue an announcement to stop publishing and self-check, and let the newspaper guys of the distribution association march on the streets, as long as there is money, there will not be too few newspaper guys marching, I bet that the congressman will not jump out again when he sees the people's march, he will pay attention to his reputation and maintain his public image." ”
Lu Zhaotang snapped his fingers that didn't match his identity: "That's a good point, but after all, I'm still young, and I owe some heat, I think you thought of it before you saw me, right?"
Huo Dongjun nodded, these words were indeed what he had already thought of, including what Lu Zhaotang said that there were big people speaking out for Zhao Hongjun, he had already considered it, and seeing Lu Zhaotang this time was just to determine whether his judgment and the timing of the counterattack were suitable.
Lu Zhaotang saw Huo Dongjun nodding in agreement with his words, so he continued to smile and said: " If you do this, you can indeed force the big man who has not spoken out now to stop speaking out, but doing business, than when you wore jeans to make a mistake, you have to pay more attention to harmony as the price, but this peace is precious, not with the opponent, but the opponent lineup, that big man can stand on the side of Zhao Hongjun, or because of interests or other things, stand opposite him, and what you just said, if you really do it, even if the Hong Kong Magazine Association does not speak up this time, will you think that they can bear you next time, even if you win this time, the gains outweigh the losses, and sooner or later you will be driven out by another Zhao Hongjun or others。 ”
Huo Dongjun looked at Lu Zhaotang: "Uncle Tang, even if I want to value peace, it is impossible to pull Hongjun's help to stand on my side in a short time, right?"
"A politician is the most impolite and shameless existence, the interests he wants are nothing more than a name, you can get a name for him, he doesn't have to stand on your side on the surface, as long as he is neutral, Zhao Hongjun himself will be scared to death, as for the magazine association, you can go to them now, express your willingness to stop publishing and self-check, and prepare a step for them first, so that when you let the newspaper guys march, it will also be convenient for the Hong Kong Magazine Association to turn around, they can say to the outside world that the association already knows about "Men's Weekly" The news of the suspension of the magazine and self-examination is gratifying that you can understand the problem, the stability of the entire industry that the association needs, and you have made sufficient preparations in advance, in the eyes of these people in the association, it is Zhao Hongjun who wants to make trouble by jumping up and down. Lu Zhaotang took a puff of his cigar and said in a leisurely tone.
Huo Dongjun let out a long breath, Lu Zhaotang is a real politician and businessman, no wonder he can start from a private hospital and become the Yuen Long District Councilor and the president of the Junior Chamber of Commerce, even if Lu Bingrong is the emperor of Yuen Long, Lu Zhaotang has today, it is not considered to rely on the strength of his old bean, this kind of mind is purely honed by himself.
"Okay, the wedding feast is about to begin, let's go downstairs together, if you're not in a hurry, by the way, introduce a few young people to meet you. Lu Zhaotang stood up and announced that this guidance was over.
But Huo Dongjun felt that in this short ten minutes, he only spent 30,000 yuan, which was really worth the ticket price.
