After Ming Pao tasted the benefits of fabricating the "God of War" article, it took action again the next day and began to report the entire Shaw Brothers rumor with added fuel and jealousy.
This time, instead of carrying a pig, he took the route of a wealthy son-in-law. Zou Wenhuai once again transformed into a useless son-in-law. He was bullied by his father-in-law, Shao Daheng, and took over all the housework at home. He could only eat leftovers and even went to the vegetable market.
Every time I buy groceries, I pay two cents more than others, so I often get slapped.
In this regard, after being slapped, Zou Wenhuai always gave a crooked smile and said: "The sparrow knows the ambition of the swan!"
In just two days, the supplement of Ming Pao used two reports to reverse the unfavorable image of Zou Wenhuai and others, while Shaw Brothers was completely blackmailed, and Shao Yifu became a villain who bullied honest people.
Regarding this kind of arrangement, the belly displayed by Shao Yifu made everyone admire him.
Shao Daheng specifically clarified this vulgarity in "Sing Tao Daily", and it was impossible to look directly at the authenticity of the article.
Finally, he said in a deafening voice: "I advocate that the entertainment industry and the news media should completely purify such vulgar news articles!"
"It is true that the news media has a high degree of freedom, but freedom must also have limits! If it is just to use such articles that are harmful to people and have no authenticity at all to sensationalize, then I think such news and articles are completely acceptable
Throw it into the stove!"
"Finally, what I want to say is that we, Shaw Brothers, have always been adhering to the principle of treating the audience as our bread and butter, taking the promotion of truth, goodness and beauty as our social responsibility, and will always be at the forefront of the path of exploration. Therefore, the new film "Hunter", which will be released in three days, will bring you
Come for a different audio-visual experience!”
Faced with Shao Yifu's counterattack, Ming Pao's supplement published another joint article by A Fei and A Lu. This time the article did not use the God of War or Son-in-law essay, but pointed out seriously: "We respect the clarification statement issued by Mr. Shao.
And we must also emphasize that our newly established Jiahe Film Company also regards the audience as its bread and butter and takes the production of excellent movies as its own responsibility. In order to meet everyone's requirements, we are working hard to prepare and plan! Our first major film
, will meet you in three months, the name of this drama is "Myth"!"
Next, Shao Yifu and Shi Zhijian went back and forth to clarify things.
Shao Yifu specializes in printing for his own movies, while Shi Zhijian specializes in promoting the opening of the newly established Golden Harvest.
The two of them tacitly enjoyed the free bonus in the free newspaper. In one word, sweet!
Readers are not fools. After reading too much of these clarifying news, they feel more and more that something is wrong.
Especially the supplement of Ming Pao. With this war without gunpowder, the sales volume skyrocketed. After a week, the total sales volume had reached an astonishing 100,000 copies like a monkey in the sky!
What is this concept?
Record-breaking concept!
At this time, the highest sales volume of all newspapers and magazines in Hong Kong was only 97,800, and it was impossible to recharge with just one or two thousand, but this time Ming Pao did it.
Seeing this situation, Jin Yong, the boss of Ming Pao and the leader in the martial arts world, couldn't help high-fiving in front of his friend Ni Jiang and exclaimed: "This Shi Zhijian's good tricks are like turning his hands into clouds and turning his hands into rain!"
Ni Jiang rolled his eyes, it was his wife who was carrying the pig, and his son-in-law who came to visit him was slapped and smiled evilly, this A Jian has completely ruined the bottom line of the literary people! Uh, should I write more articles like this, it seems to be very profitable.
Look!
Jin Yong was full of praise for Shi Zhijian, but he didn't know that Shi Zhijian's plan was only half implemented.
…
The construction of the Shek Kip Mei factory is still in full swing.
The construction of such a large factory is simply a bottomless pit. Even if Shi Zhijian borrowed 3 million from the Far East Bank, he still could not plug this hole, leaving Shi Zhijian now stretched thin.
According to calculations, Yuen Long Instant Noodles Factory and To Kwa Wan Soda Factory now make a maximum profit of NT$800,000 per month. Together with the cooperation with Kowloon City Walled City, the monthly profit can reach NT$1.5 million. It only takes two months to get a loan of NT$3 million.
10,000 will be paid off.
But now that Shi Zhijian has freed up Jiahe, it is inevitable that there will not be enough funds.
Therefore, in the next spending projects, Shi Zhijian adheres to the principle of high quality and low price. He will not spend more money if he can, and he must use every penny wisely.
…
Causeway Bay, tenement buildings.
"Come on, come on, please come in quickly!" Shi Zhijian very friendly invited Zou Wenhuai, He Guanchang and other founders of Jiahe to his home.
In the newly vacated room on the first floor, Shi Zhijian showed everyone the layout of the room and the various furniture that were half-new and half-old.
Zou Wenhuai, He Guanchang and others were very moved that Shi Zhijian was so busy that he personally took them to visit his home.
However, the place is too small, only 20 square meters at most. It can accommodate three folding beds, four tables, and eight chairs. It is already very interesting. Everyone can finish the visit with just one glance.
Shi Zhijian still had more to say and asked everyone how they felt and whether they were satisfied with the layout of the environment here.
Seeing that Shi Zhijian was talking freely, He Guanchang and others gave Zou Wenhuai a wink.
Zou Wenhuai pulled Shi Zhijian aside, took out a cigarette from his arms and handed it to Shi Zhijian, saying: "Ajian, we have finished visiting your home. Do you think you will take us to the company to see it now?"
"Yes, you said that after the company is established, you will rent a large office for us." He Guanchang also came over and took out a match to help Shi Zhijian light his cigarette.
Shi Zhijian took out a puff of cigarette, with a look of astonishment on his face, "Why, you haven't understood yet? This is our Jiahe Company office! Look at it, it's twenty square meters, a total of 200 feet! The surrounding environment is super good, with hot and cold weather
Water, public restrooms, and the most important thing is that I live above you. If you have any experiences, you can always communicate with me!"
Zou Wenhuai, He Guanchang and others were dumbfounded.
Even if they were beaten to death, they never would have thought that Shi Zhijian would bring Jiahe Film Company to his home!
"You have no way out now. You broke up with Shaw Brothers and signed a contract with me. The only thing you can do now is to go all the way to the end!" Shi Zhijian said seriously.
Zou Wenhuai and others felt that he was cunning and cunning.
Can you raise your hands and surrender now and go back to Shaw Brothers to beg for mercy?
He just said that he was too young to be tempted and fell under the spell of an adulterer!
At this moment, Zou Wenhuai, He Guanchang, Chen Ziqiang and others had countless thoughts in their minds.
If they were not scholars and gentlemen, they would have rioted together and punched Shi Zhijian to death.
"Now, I know what you are all thinking now, don't let your eyes roll around too fast!"
"I didn't lie to you. Starting a business is so difficult! I said I would support you with money, and I will definitely do it!"
After Shi Zhijian finished speaking, he pointed to this small room, "Believe me, I will work here for the time being. I will soon change you to a large office with all-weather air conditioning that is warm in winter and cool in summer!"
Zou Wenhuai's lips trembled a little, "How do you expect us to believe you?"
"Yeah, you always play tricks on us!"
"Really? I'm very honest! You must have misunderstood too much!" Shi Zhijian spread his hands, looking innocent.
"Don't you just think the company is small? I can assure you that as long as you are willing to work hard, I will give you one million out in three days! You can do whatever you want by then!"
"Just you?"
"It's just me. If you don't believe me, let's make a bet!"
"What to bet on?"
"I can't come up with one million in three days, so I'll just tear up the contract I signed with you! If I do, then you guys must listen to me honestly and respect me as big brother, and I'll call you
Young man!"
Seeing how confident he was, Zou Wenhuai glanced at He Guanchang and others, immediately took off his coat, threw it on the folding bed next to him, and shouted: "It's a bet!"
