Zhuque TV is preparing to suspend broadcasting for a month, mainly to straighten out all the projects in the TV station. Therefore, there is only one free TV station in Hong Kong, which is Wireless. During the TVB evening news, there were reports about the acquisition of DreamWorks.

"Brother Six, Brother Six, big news!" Fang Yihua knocked on the door and entered Run Run Shaw's study, which was in the Wireless Board Chairman's Office in the Wireless Building.

"What's the matter? Yihua, sit down and talk." Run Run Shao said. He spoke slowly, but calmly and forcefully.

Run Run Shaw, whose original name was Shao Renlang, was born in Zhenhai, Ningbo, Zhejiang. Among the eight brothers and sisters of the Shaw family, he ranked sixth. In the old Shanghai era, he was known as "Shao Laoliu", and after coming to Hong Kong, he was honored as "Uncle Six". Run Run Shaw was born in 1958 in

Shaw Brothers Film Company was established in Hong Kong. Now Shaw Brothers movies are not doing well. The main reason is that the management model is backward. Fortunately, there is a strong distribution network to support it. Otherwise, all the money would have been lost. Shaw Brothers has its own companies in Hong Kong and Nanyang.

The theater chain produces and sells its own products, and operates a large studio system, so the labor cost is very low.

He was awarded the CBE title by the Queen of England in 1974. In 1977, Shao was knighted by the Queen of England and became the first person in the Hong Kong entertainment industry to be awarded the title of "Sir", so he was called Sir Shao.

Run Run Shaw's life is a legendary life. Among the evaluations of Mr. Run Run Shaw, I personally feel that the most pertinent one is: the last businessman of the old days, his business was to the extreme, and his charity was never forgotten.

To use Ma Boyong's description of Mr. Run Run Shaw's life: He was born in the late Qing Dynasty and passed away in the 21st century. The drama of change was like time traveling, spanning a full century.

In its heyday, Shaw Brothers Studios had more than 1,300 employees and was hailed as the "Hollywood of the East" by foreign media. Before Run Run Shaw came to Hong Kong, Hong Kong's cinemas implemented a classification system, and locally produced movies could only be shown in low-level cinemas.

Advertisements were placed in newspapers to recruit talents. Soon, famous directors such as Tao Qin, Li Hanxiang, Bu Wancang, Yue Feng, Luo Zhen, He Menghua, and Yan Jun came; Lin Dai, Li Lihua, Leti, Zhang Zhongwen, Ding Hong, and Ding Ning

, Chen Hou, Zhao Lei, Guan Shan and other famous actors also came. In addition, Shaw Brothers Company also found a large number of talents in photography, production, makeup, editing and other aspects. Many playwrights also came to apply. Run Run Shaw was the first to apply.

He hired Zou Wenhuai as the editor-in-chief of his "Film Weekly". "Film Weekly" is rich in content and lively, especially columns such as "Film Star Life", "Shaw Brothers Stars", and "International Film News", attracting a large number of young people.

Of course, Run Run Shaw's own strong management style led to his directors, actors and collaborators such as Hu Jinquan, Wang Yu, Zou Wenhuai and others leaving Shaw Brothers one after another. In the end, Zou Wenhuai fell in love with him for half his life.

Run Run Shaw's conservatism led to the collapse of Shaw Brothers Pictures. In particular, the big studio system made movies lose their vitality. However, Hong Kong is called "Oriental Hollywood" and is inseparable from his big studio system. It's just that one system cannot be applied all the time.

.

Zhao Hong admires him very much. Run Run Shaw is not the richest person in Hong Kong, but he is one of the few philanthropists among the rich in Hong Kong. According to statistics, Run Run Shaw has donated to social welfare over the years, and his charity affairs have exceeded HK$10 billion. He has built

More than 6,000 education and medical projects. Especially for education and science and technology, the educational funds donated by Run Run Shaw are spread all over the country. Many colleges and universities across China have "Shaw Towers" named after Run Run Shaw. Many colleges and universities in Hong Kong

The construction of institutions has been donated by Sir Run Run, such as the Shaw College of the Chinese University of Hong Kong, the Shaw Building of the University of Hong Kong, and the Shaw Library of the City University of Hong Kong.

Of course, no one is perfect, and Run Run Shaw is famous for being "stingy". In terms of money, he is extremely stingy in controlling operating costs, and even spends every penny, which is no different from most Hong Kong bosses. ( Hey! I accidentally hacked another wave of Xiangjiang bosses.)

As for Fong Yihua, she is the second wife of Sir Run Run Shaw, also known as Li Menglan and Fang Menghua. She is known for her ruthlessness. Fang Yihua's way of doing things has made people inside TVB quite criticized. The reason is that Fang Yihua does things too cruelly. If she doesn't like it, she will cut it off. Fang Yihua is too subjective in doing things and never objectively evaluates people and things. She once laid off a large number of employees in the technical department in one fell swoop, which caused quite a shock in Hong Kong.

Now Fang Yihua is Run Run Shaw's right-hand man, "Brother Six, I learned today that DreamWorks acquired Li's TV Station."

"When did it happen?" Run Run Shaw said in a deep voice.

"Just this afternoon, DreamWorks held a press conference to announce it." Fang Yihua replied.

Run Run Shaw didn't speak for a long time.

"Sixth brother, this will make it much easier for us. I heard that DreamWorks appointed Huang Xizhao as general manager. Isn't this a resignation of fate? You must know that Huang Xizhao was beaten by us and was unable to fight back. The two Zhao family members She is still too young for a junior!" Fang Yihua said easily. She really didn't take the chairman and president of DreamWorks seriously. She admitted that Zhao Yingying was good at managing the company, but when it came to being a TV station, she was still very green. As for the Their director Zhao Hongchang is even worse. He is just a good writer. She also admits in her heart that Zhao Hongchang is good-looking, but he is too handsome to make a living.

"You said they appointed Huang Xizhao as general manager?" Run Run Shaw asked again.

"Yes, Sixth Brother, don't you think it's ridiculous?" Fang Yihua replied with a smile.

"You! You, you are totally wrong to think this way. Huang Xizhao is not a simple person. Look at the group of talents he has cultivated. Even I would be salivating. Don't you remember "Celestial Silkworm Transformation"? That was so hard that Wireless couldn't hold its head up. He was restrained by the ghost guy. It would be good if he could give out five out of ten talents. Now that he is doing well, he has been appointed by DreamWorks again. It is like a dragon ascending to the sky and a dragon entering the sea. You have to be careful in the future." Run Run Shaw said in an indignant voice. He felt that Fang Yihua's thinking was too simple.

As soon as Fang Yihua heard Run Run Shaw's analysis, she felt bad all over, "Is Sixth Brother really that serious?".

"It's that serious! Are there any others?" Run Run Shaw asked.

"Also, DreamWorks established a subsidiary, DreamWorks Entertainment. DreamWorks Entertainment also includes DreamWorks Cinemas, the newly established film company and Suzaku TV. Brother Six, they appointed Shu Liang Shuyi as general manager. You say this appointment is ridiculous. , Jiashi went bankrupt in her hands, and I can’t see any Zhuque TV station for a long time.” Fang Yihua replied.

"Yi Hua, what should I say to you? Can you not be so one-sided in your view of the matter?" Run Run Shaw was really speechless, and then said: "The main reason for Jiashi's collapse was that it was born with deformities and danced with shackles. Firstly, there was a lack of funds, and Shu Liang had to take dangerous measures, so the collapse of Jiayi TV had little to do with her, and secondly, after this failure, she will become more mature and even harder to deal with."

Fang Yihua's eyes widened. He didn't expect that there were so many twists and turns, and he said in a charming voice: "Brother Six, you are still amazing. You can see through problems at a glance. It seems that I will learn more from you in the future!"

.

Run Run Shaw said quite proudly: "If you use your brain more often, many problems will be solved easily."

"Brother Six, your brain is enough. For me, whatever you say is what it is." Fang Yihua said sincerely.
