Chapter 216~217 [Confidante](1/2)
On Sunday, the Regent Hotel held a celebrity charity dinner, and Lin Zuhui was also invited.
Lin Zuhui usually participates in this kind of entertainment selectively. His current status is not to say that he is as famous as the four major families, but he is at least the head of the top ten plutocrats in Hong Kong. Ordinary celebrities cannot really invite him to high-class dinners.
The charity dinner was held by ATV this time. Lin Zuhui intended to take over from Qiu Degen at the end of this year or the first half of next year, so he readily agreed to attend the appointment.
As soon as Lin Zuhui arrived at the entrance of the hall, several people put down their entertainment and happily came to greet him.
Immediately, the guests in the hall all started to pay attention, wondering who the big shot was, and there was such a scene.
Some people who didn't know Lin Zuhui's appearance were immediately curious when they saw that he was just a young man in his 20s.
"Who is he? He is so proud?"
At this time, if there were any companions around, they would definitely look down upon them secretly.
"He doesn't even know him. The Hong Kong tycoon who has been in the limelight recently is as famous as Li Chaoren and Sha Dantong. Let me put it this way, you should understand who he is, right?"
"Ah, it turns out he is Mr. Lin Zuhui. I really didn't expect the real person to be so young."
"Youth is his capital. Now who dares to say that his youth is a disadvantage, but it is his advantage."
"That's true! The head of a company with tens of billions of assets, a Chinese boss who is fighting against the Kadoorie family, and a business tycoon who strips off real estate, is really famous! If he hadn't rarely given interviews and appeared in the media,
It’s not like I don’t know him.”
The guests all turned their attention to Lin Zuhui, feeling envious of the man who greeted him enthusiastically.
Qiu Degen stretched out his right hand and said happily: "Lin Sheng is here, and the peppercorns are shining!"
The two had a pleasant cooperation. When they acquired Dasheng Real Estate, both companies made a lot of money.
In addition, Lin Zuhui was at the peak of his power. Even as a senior, Qiu Degen did not dare to trust him. What's more, it was Lin Zuhui who he invited. Of course, he could not neglect his guests.
"Qiu Sheng, you're very polite. I am most willing to do charity. I am very honored to attend today's dinner." Lin Zuhui said politely.
He is indeed willing to do charity. Although he does not have much funds now, he often squeezes in some funds and uses hundreds of thousands for charity, which is tens of millions of charitable donations a year.
Charitable donations can increase people's fame and social influence, and they can also help Lin Zuhui's career, so he is happy to do so.
After a brief chat, Qiu Degen saw several of Lin Zuhui's friends coming up to greet him, and went to greet the other guests.
Lin Zuhui looked at Zheng Jiachun, Pan Disheng and others and said dissatisfiedly: "Why are you here too and didn't say hello to me in advance?"
Pan Dickson always likes to show his closeness to Lin Zuhui in front of outsiders, climbing forward and climbing on Lin Zuhui's shoulders, joking.
"We knew you were such a big shot and would come to this banquet, so we didn't say hello to you."
Lin Zuhui gave him an elbow directly, but stopped his strength and said angrily: "What are you talking about! I can't be like Uncle Tong and others, treating you as juniors! Nor can I be like Li Chaoren and others, just
It's such a boring life to attend high-end business banquets! Besides, Mr. Qiu and I have had a pleasant cooperation, so I naturally want to come."
He immediately ransacked several people to retaliate for not notifying him.
At this time, Zheng Jiachun quietly said to Lin Zuhui: "Zu Hui, you don't want to take action against ATV recently, do you?"
But he always remembered that Lin Zuhui intended to acquire ATV and agreed to invite the Zheng family to cooperate, so he speculated like this.
Lin Zuhui shook his head and said in a low voice: "Wait a moment, Qiu Sheng seems to have no intention of placing the offer yet, don't be in a hurry!"
But he knew in his heart that the reason why Qiu Degen really put the money on the market was, in addition to the lawsuits he filed every year, there was also a fire at ATV's headquarters this year, Qiu Degen was investigated for falsifying accounts, and his son killed someone while drinking while driving.
As long as he has the funds in place and finds someone to secretly report Qiu Degen for making false accounts, he can buy ATV in advance. Lin Zuhui will not feel ashamed about this kind of thing. If there is any violation of law, everyone has the responsibility to supervise it.
What's more, Qiu Degen didn't have much trouble. In his previous life, he avoided trouble because of his old age and Alzheimer's disease.
Zheng Jiachun nodded. Although he also wanted Zheng to cooperate with Lin Zuhui, he knew that Zheng had no media experience. On the contrary, Lin Zuhui had worked in other media industries besides TV stations, and was successful in it, so he had to rely on Lin Zuhui to take the lead.
.
At this time, Lin Zuhui changed his mind again, that is, he planned to develop DreamWorks and join hands with ATV to build a comprehensive entertainment industry.
After all, he is young, so there is no problem in squeezing out some energy.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Lin Jianyue not far away. Because Zheng Yutong and Lin Baixin had a good relationship, Lin Jianyue also had a good relationship with Zheng Jiachun. And because of this relationship, Lin Zuhui had many contacts with Lin Jianyue, and the relationship between the two was still good.
good.
Naturally, Lin Zuhui would not feel guilty for taking away the property that belonged to the Lin Baixin family. After all, it was all money spent and he was equivalent to saving the Lixin Group from falling into losses.
A few people chatted for a while, and from time to time someone came up to say hello to Lin Zuhui. Their popularity was no less than that of the protagonist.
"Lin Sheng!"
Shi Nansheng brought a very ordinary woman to Lin Zuhui and greeted him warmly.
Lin Zuhui responded with a smile: "Miss Shi!"
Shi Nansheng is not only a powerful manager in the Hong Kong entertainment industry, but also has extensive contacts in the political and business circles. This is not the first time that Lin Zuhui met her at a dinner party.
When Shi Nansheng saw that Zheng Jiachun and others had left, he smiled and pointedly said: "Thank you Lin Sheng for helping Qingxia a lot last time, and for recently giving her advice on real estate speculation!"
However, Lin Zuhui said generously: "I have to thank you for being a matchmaker! But I have repaid the favor. I don't know why, Director Xu now doesn't want cash remuneration, but a share of the remuneration. Miss Shi, he has received guidance from an expert!"
He accidentally chatted with Wang Zuxian, and then contacted Xu Ke. Suddenly the lion opened his mouth. All the movies he collaborated with only needed to be divided, and he knew what the problem was. Wang Zuxian leaked the secrets of DreamWorks, which caused Shi Nansheng to seize the handle, and changed the direct demand for remuneration.
cooperation method.
There is no need to question Lin Zuhui's vision, and no one is qualified to question it. DreamWorks' brand that its products must be high-quality products has not been broken to this day. The lowest box office of its movies is 17 million, which is a miracle in the film industry.
Of course, Lin Zuhui also attaches great importance to the cooperation with Xuke. New Art City exists in name only, and Xuke's studio has not signed an exclusive contract with New Art City. Therefore, it is very worthwhile for Lin Zuhui to win over Xuke. There will be many places for cooperation in the future.
"Hehe, Boss Lin doesn't care about that, right?"
"That makes sense! I care about Director Xu Ke, and it's worth whatever money I spend."
Shi Nansheng was immediately proud. If there was any film company boss who valued his man the most, it would definitely be this layman film boss. Anyway, as long as Xu Ke joins a movie, no matter if he is a producer or in other capacities, he will be offered a high salary.
.
"Lin Sheng, let me introduce to you. This is my good friend Zou Kaixuan, an excellent business operations manager." Shi Nansheng pointed to his companion.
Lin Zuhui was slightly stunned at first, and then quickly looked at Zou Kaixuan. This ordinary-looking woman was actually a Hong Kong eldest lady, a confidante of the richest man, and the first initiator of the Oriental Plaza project.
Interestingly, if that is the one, Lin Zuhui is completely interested in wooing her, because Lin Zuhui also needs such a capable strong woman. Of course, Lin Zuhui has no other ideas, she just wants to get a talented person to join her.
"It turns out to be Miss Zou!" Lin Zuhui extended his right hand and greeted.
Zhou Kaixuan immediately became lively when he saw that Lin Zuhui was very kind and did not look down upon him because he was just starting out in the business world.
She originally took a fancy to Shi Nansheng's connections in Hong Kong's upper class society, and then took the initiative to approach Shi Nansheng. Of course, she gained Shi Nansheng's friendship with the business of selling movies to Europe.
"Lin Sheng, I have heard many stories about your deeds, and I admire your talents and abilities very much!" Zou Kaixuan flattered you and said generously.
Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "Since Miss Zou has heard many of my deeds, I wonder if I can hear what projects Miss Zou has done?"
Zou Kaixuan was ecstatic, this might be the most important opportunity in her life!
If she catches it, she can work for the tycoon in the future. Moreover, this platform is too high!
"Then let me interrupt Lin Sheng's time!"
"It doesn't matter. I think the person Miss Shi introduced must also be a hero among women."
Lin Zuhui's words made both Shi Nansheng and Zou Kaixuan feel like they were in the spring breeze and felt honored.
Zou Kaixuan then introduced himself: "Last year I worked on a project. One of my British bosses wanted the terracotta warriors and horses to be exhibited in London. I was responsible for negotiating this project... I spent two weeks in the mainland.
This promoted this cooperation. Not only that, I also planned a souvenir project for the Terracotta Warriors and Horses, and the sales were extremely hot... I got a lot of commissions for this! Recently, I was helping Xinyi City
The project of selling the film to Europe is almost completed..."
Lin Zuhui listened carefully and nodded with indifferent appreciation on his face.
After listening, Lin Zuhui handed Zou Kaixuan a business card and said with a smile: "Let's exchange business cards, maybe there will be a chance to work together!"
Shi Nansheng was surprised that she had not received Lin Zuhui's business card yet, but her friend actually did so.
Zou Kaixuan quickly took the business card, as if he had found a treasure, and then politely handed over his business card.
Lin Zuhui smiled and put the business card away and said, "I value your operational ability more!"
"Thank you Lin Sheng for your appreciation. If there is an opportunity to cooperate, I will do my best!"
"good!"
At this time, Zou Kaixuan probably had not yet met Zhang Peiwei and Dong Jianhua's cousin through Shi Nansheng, nor had he joined Orient Overseas Shipping.
Therefore, Lin Zuhui plans to train her to become one of his agents in mainland China.
After chatting for a few words, the dinner officially began, and everyone took their seats under the leadership of the hostess.
Under the guidance of the etiquette lady, Lin Zuhui came to the main table and sat with Qiu Degen and others.
Then the charity activities officially started.
There are philanthropic people who take out their collections and jewelry and put them up for auction. Those who participate in the auction are naturally philanthropic, because they don't mind that the price is much higher.
As each auction item fetched a high price, the charity auction had become a success. However, everyone found that Lin Zuhui had not participated, and they suddenly became mentally defamed.
As everyone knows, Lin Zuhui looked at Miss Asia Li Zhi not far away in a trance. Seeing that the auction was about halfway over, Lin Zuhui said to Qiu Degen beside him in a strange way: "Sheng Qiu, can you hold an interesting little charity program alone?"
The dance project with Miss Li Zhi is for charity, so how about an auction?"
Qiu Degen said without hesitation: "Of course, this is a good thing! Miss Asia represents beauty and kindness, I will arrange it right away. Lin Sheng, you are indeed a media person, you have great ideas!"
