As Chu Huan came to the elevator, many people from the company greeted Chu Huan one after another.
Chu Huan smiled and nodded with everyone. Seeing Chu Huan walk into his exclusive elevator, those who were still waiting for the elevator breathed a sigh of relief.
"I haven't seen the chairman for several months. I didn't expect that the chairman is still so handsome!"
No matter what kind of company you are in, there will be no shortage of female colleagues who like to gossip.
"Yeah, he's really handsome!" Someone said in agreement.
"However, have you noticed that the chairman's expression seems a little off today?" Some people observed more carefully and spoke softly.
"What's wrong? I haven't seen the chairman for more than three months. Are you mistaken?"
"I don't know, I just feel that the atmosphere of the chairman today is a bit off, but maybe I saw it wrong!"
"You must have read it wrong. Didn't you see that the newspapers that smeared the chairman are no longer available? I think the chairman will take action against those English newspapers next."
"Those English newspapers are backed by British-funded consortiums. It's not that easy to take action against them, right?"
"Tsk, when did the chairman ever care about the British consortium?"
"That's true. Could it be because of the MTR Corporation's land in Kowloon Bay? The bidding results for this land will be announced this afternoon. I heard someone from Zhulu Real Estate on the 53rd floor say that this time
The competition is very fierce, and several British-funded consortiums have also put in a lot of effort!"
"It's probably not that good. Now the chairman is not very involved in some matters of the branch. And I heard that the chairman has completely delegated power to Mr. He?"
While everyone was discussing, the elevator door opened, and these people crowded into the elevator one after another.
At this time, Chu Huan had already arrived on the 70th floor and came to his office.
"Call Fang Jianhui of the black and white image and ask him to come here as soon as possible!"
As soon as Chu Huan walked into the office, he spoke to Xu Yi who was waiting for him at the door.
Xu Yi immediately motioned to the secretary beside her to do this.
As the business around Chu Huan increased, it was no longer possible for Xu Yi to handle everything in an organized manner.
So in addition to people from the secretarial department helping Xu Yi, Xu Yi also has five full-time secretaries around her, and different people serve her every day.
"Boss, did the meeting with the Film and Television Department not go smoothly?"
After Chu Huan sat down, Xu Yi had already placed the iced Coke he had just taken out of the refrigerator in front of Chu Huan.
Xu Yi knew that Chu Huan was going to meet David Patterson from the Xiangjiang Film and Television Office today, so he asked this question at this time.
Chu Huan did not answer Xu Yi's question, but said to Xu Yi: "Call Wu Xiaohui over."
"yes!"
This time, Xu Yi personally picked up the phone on Chu Huan's desk and dialed Wu Xiaohui's office number, telling her that Chu Huan needed him to come up now.
Xu Yi then asked the two secretaries beside him to go out.
Chu Huan said: "The Hong Kong Film and Television Department is preparing to introduce a film classification system and launch a film festival..."
After telling Xu Yi what happened at the Xiangjiang Film and Television Office, Chu Huan asked Xu Yi: "What do you think of these two things?"
Xu Yi said: "We have known about the establishment of the Xiangjiang Film Festival for a long time. Manager Wu also told me about it before, but the boss was still in his hometown at that time, and you also talked about it.
The impact of this incident is not very big, and I will wait until you come back to talk about it, so I didn’t tell you about it on the phone at that time..."
Chu Huan waved his hand, smiled, and said: "I don't mean to blame you, but these two things happened at the same time. I really underestimated some people in the Hong Kong government before!"
Xu Yi knew Chu Huan, and naturally knew that Chu Huan would not be angry because of something that had already been explained to him, so he continued to preach.
"As for the other party's intention to set up a film rating system in Hong Kong, if everything is handled fairly and the relevant rating regulations are released, then we don't have to worry, but I think the Film and Television Administration has chosen to make this decision at this time.
thing, then their evaluation standards will definitely not be announced as we thought, so they will definitely target us in this matter!"
Chu Huan nodded and said: "I think so too. I believe this matter will be reported on Li's TV today and spread throughout Xiangjiang."
Xu Yi immediately said: "Boss, if this is the case, the impact on you will definitely be huge. I think we should also call Manager Liang Risi from the Public Relations Department."
Setting up a film rating system for Hong Kong films is a situation where the film and television industry is operating under an official background, directly seizing power and money from Chu Huan in the Hong Kong film industry.
But how come there is still one month left for this matter, and the announcement of the Xiangjiang Film Festival now is a serious blow to Chu Huan’s reputation in Xiangjiang, and it will be known to the people of Xiangjiang today. In Xu Yi’s opinion,
It's the thing that needs the most attention.
"Film Fortnightly", a subsidiary of Black and White Newspaper, held the Film Awards, but now the Hong Kong government wants to launch a Hong Kong Film Festival?
Moreover, the people chosen were the same group of movie commentators who had been directly criticized by Chu Huan in the newspaper.
This is a slap in Chi Guoguo’s face!
It would definitely be a major blow to Chu Huan's image in Xiangjiang, so Xu Yi suggested that Liang Risi from the Jiaku Public Relations Department come up.
Chu Huan had no objection to this suggestion and said: "Let her come up and tell He Bingguang at the same time that as soon as the results of the bidding for the property development rights on the original site of the Kowloon Bay MTR Corporation come out, notify me immediately!"
Now the Hong Kong government has begun to take action against the media industry that Chu Huan analyzed. Since the other party has already taken action, it will not be just this move. Chu Huan very much suspects that there will be some problems in this bidding matter.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Xu Yi said with some confidence: "Probably not, General Manager He has already told me about this matter, the MTR Corporation
We are very satisfied with our bidding plan, and so are the board of directors and MTR executives. In addition, didn’t Xia Dingji have any influence on the development rights of the properties above the MTR station, Central station, and Admiralty station before?”
Chu Huan waved his hands and said: "This time is different from the last time. Last time no one knew that I went to my hometown, but this time the whole of Xiangjiang knows that I stayed in my hometown for three months. The environment is different, and it may cause dissatisfaction."
Same result."
It was possible that Xia Dingji was the only one who opposed the last bid, and Pemberton could still withstand the pressure. But this time, Pemberton was not facing Xia Dingji, but most likely the entire Hong Kong government.
I don’t want to see my good ghost alliance.
Chu Huan would not believe in Raspberry Burton's ability to withstand pressure so much.
"I will notify General Manager He now!" After hearing Chu Huan's analysis, Xu Yi did not hesitate and dialed the number of He Bingguang's office.
Soon, Liang Risi, the manager of Jiaku's public relations department, and Wu Xiaohui, the deputy manager of the investigation department, came to Chu Huan's office.
"Who is supporting Wang Jingyi and others in organizing the Xiangjiang Film Festival?" Chu Huan asked Wu Xiaohui directly.
Wu Xiaohui replied: "It is a film company from Taiwan. The company there has always wanted to enter the film market in Hong Kong. I had discussed cooperation with General Manager Fang before, but he was rejected by General Manager Fang. This time Wang Jingyi
The same goes for others..."
After listening to Wu Xiaohui explain the situation of Wang Jingyi and others, Chu Huan had a general understanding of the situation of Wang Jingyi and others.
Continued to ask: "Wang Jingyi and others contacted those filmmakers in Xiangjiang?"
If you want to organize a film festival, you must have the participation of filmmakers.
Although Wu Xiaohui has not formally reported this matter to Chu Huan, he already has a list in his mind, saying: "Hu Jinquan, Li Hanxiang, Chu Yuan, Zhang Che, Cheng Long, Hong Jinbao, Xu Guanwen and others are all connected.
In addition, it is rumored that they even called Li Xiaolong!"
Just when Wu Xiaohui reported the matter to Chu Huan, Fang Jianhui also came to Chu Huan's office.
Xu Yi whispered to Fang Jianhui what happened before.
"What's going on over there?" Chu Huan waited for Xu Yi to finish talking to Fang Jianhui before asking Fang Jianhui directly.
Fang Jianhui said: "Basically, all the artists in our company have received invitations from each other, and I also told them before, as instructed by the chairman, that they can participate in the film festivals organized by these people."
When Chu Huan angrily criticized Wang Jingyi and others, Chu Huan told Fang Jianhui that there was no need to prevent the company's artists and directors from participating in this film festival, or even allowed them to agree.
Chu Huan sat on his chair, raised his forehead slightly, and said: "Very good, since they want to make this drama a big show, then let them put it on the stage properly. I want to see how embarrassing it will be then."
Who could it be!"
Liang Risi asked aloud at this time: "Chairman, have you made your own decision on this matter?"
Chu Huan nodded and said: "That's right!"
Liang Risi said: "I hope that Chairman, you can tell our public relations department your specific ideas, so that our public relations department can also formulate the most appropriate crisis response plan according to your ideas!"
Fang Jianhui and Wu Xiaohui looked at Chu Huan, and Fang Jianhui asked: "Chairman, do you want us to go out for a while?"
Chu Huan waved his hands and said: "No need, this time, since they want to use black and white images to make the first move, then black and white images will be the main force in this battle. This time we will let these ghosts see it. I
Why was he called the number one person in Hong Kong film and television before?"
Several people looked grim, they saw murderous intent in Chu Huan's body.
Of course, this does not mean that Chu Huan is really going to kill someone, but they understand that this time the Xiangjiang Film and Television Office will be embarrassed!
after an hour!
Although several people in the office had already guessed that Chu Huan was definitely going to play a big game this time, they did not expect that Chu Huan would play such a big game.
Fang Jianhui, who was fearless in the past, couldn't help but asked: "Huan... Chairman, if you do this, it is estimated that a hole will be poked in the entire Xiangjiang, and the Xiangjiang Film and Television Office and even them
The Hong Kong government behind the scenes will lose face. Isn’t it a bit too powerful?”
Chu Huan smiled and said, "What? Are you scared?"
Seeing Chu Huan's teasing look, Fang Jianhui stood up straight and said: "I'm definitely not afraid, I just feel that if this happens, the two sides will completely break up, and it will cause some harm to the future development of the company!
"
Chu Huan laughed and said: "If they really succeed this time, it will be a real harm to the company. Do you know why the short mules in those societies are afraid of the big brother but not the police?"
Fang Jianhui shook his head.
Liang Risi, who once worked in the public relations department of the police station, said: "Because the police have rules and scruples, but the big brothers in the society have no rules and scruples, so they can really beat them or even destroy them."
Chu Huan nodded and said: "Yes, now the Film and Television Department and those behind the Film and Television Department think that I have the current industry, so I have rules and scruples, so they dare to use such methods to deal with me at this time
We, as long as we bow to them and surrender to them on this matter, then they will become greedy and start to squeeze every drop of blood from you.
So we not only have to fight back, but we also have to beat them so hard that they no longer dare to yell at us. Only in this way can we have a fair business competition environment."
Fang Jianhui nodded again and said: "I know Brother Huan, I will do this, and I guarantee that the entire Hong Kong film industry will be on our side."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Chu Huan nodded and asked: "Does the company have sufficient liquidity?"
Fang Jianhui said with a smile: "That's enough. I originally planned to release Director Liu's movie this month, but now I will change all the movies in our theaters this month to movies from other film companies!"
Chu Huan smiled and said: "Yes, as long as the bait is enough, these people have no other choice."
Fang Jianhui said: "Chairman, do you want to tell them in advance?"
Chu Huan waved his hand and said: "No need, just tell them two days in advance!"
"Understood!" Fang Jianhui nodded seriously.
Liang Risi waited for Fang Jianhui to finish chatting with Chu Huan, and then said: "Chairman, if you follow your plan, our public relations department can only passively restore part of your image this month, but I think this
The media reports will definitely be overwhelming this month, unless we can find bigger news to cover up the bad news for you."
Chu Huan laughed and said: "I have already thought of the specific method, and I will let TVB contact you when the time comes."
Liang Risi nodded and said, "Yes."
Then Chu Huan said to Wu Xiaohui: "Your most important task during this period is to keep an eye on the major film companies in Hong Kong and the artists in Hong Kong, and keep track of their movements during this month and the film festival.
Contact us and investigate everything clearly. Are there any difficulties?"
Wu Xiaohui maintained his former military posture, stood up straight, and said seriously: "There is no problem, Xiangjiang is our base camp, and there are not many things that we cannot investigate about the management here as long as we think about it!
"
Chu Huan then smiled with satisfaction and said: "Okay!"
After everything was explained, Chu Huan asked them to leave his office.
But not long after they left, Cao Yunshang came to Chu Huan's office.
"How's it going? Isn't there good news from the Film and Television Department?"
After Cao Yunshang came to Chu Huan's office, he saw Chu Huan sitting on his chair and asked with concern.
Chu Huan smiled and said: "It's not good news. I've known this for a long time, but I didn't expect them to do it so brilliantly..."
Later, Chu Huan told Cao Yunshang what happened at the Xiangjiang Film and Television Office again.
After hearing this, Cao Yunshang was also a little surprised, "It seems that this time they want to use this incident to suppress your influence in Xiangjiang and make you understand who has the final say in Xiangjiang!"
Chu Huan smiled and said: "The idea is beautiful, but in the end they will find that the reality is very skinny!"
Cao Yunshang looked at Chu Huan's smile and couldn't help but said: "Why do I feel that you are not only not angry, but also a little excited?"
Chu Huan pulled Cao Yunshang into his arms and said with a smile: "I am indeed a little excited. Life has been a bit too peaceful in the past two years. It's better now. These people finally come up with some decent tricks. Otherwise, I
I really wonder if they have given in!"
Cao Yunshang chuckled lightly and said: "I originally wanted to ask you if you regretted your previous decision, which was a little too impulsive, and it was a little too early to return to your hometown, but now it seems that such inquiries are meaningless!"
"Haha!" Chu Huan laughed loudly and said: "Although you have to take the overall situation into consideration when doing things, it would be meaningless if you do everything with foresight and backwardness.
Besides, it is actually good for them to take action at this time. If it were delayed a few years, it would be a bit troublesome!"
To be precise, these people in the Hong Kong government now actually have a bottom line when it comes to doing things. After all, at this time, they still believe that Hong Kong will always be under their control.
But after their hometown and the British side formally finalized the matter regarding Xiangjiang, these people began to have no bottom line in doing things.
Let's take elections as an example. There was no such thing in Xiangjiang at this time. They were all appointed by the British side. But after everything was officially finalized, Xiangjiang started to engage in elections. To put it bluntly, everything
They are all done to disgust their hometown.
In terms of the development of Xiangjiang, although the pillar industries of Xiangjiang have now begun to transform into the real estate industry and the financial industry, other industries also have room for survival.
But just after the two parties finalized everything, everything changed. Only two floating industries, real estate and finance, were left in Xiangjiang. The living space of all other industries was being squeezed step by step.
Looking back at the rich people in Hong Kong in future generations, none of them became wealthy in Hong Kong by relying on the real estate industry. Take Cai Zhiming from the toy industry for example.
At that time, he was known as the toy king of Hong Kong, but in fact, looking at his wealth accumulation, it was actually more important because of his investment in the real estate industry.
At that time, the Hong Kong government will repeatedly break through the bottom line, and if Chu Huan can completely establish his position in Hong Kong before then, then no matter when any Hong Kong governor after MacLehose is in charge of Hong Kong,
You need to get along well with Chu Huan.
Cao Yunshang said: "Then what can I do to help you?"
Chu Huan shook his head and said: "At this time, they will not take action on my other industries. The influence of other industries in Xiangjiang is too practical, so they can only take action on the two industries of media and real estate."
The two industries of media and real estate also have a great influence, but they are not practical. If Chu Huan's other industries and 100,000 workers are affected, this is something that the Hong Kong government at that time cannot afford.
"Ha!" Cao Yunshang suddenly jumped down from Chu Huan's arms and said, "I know how to help you!"
He had clearly said no need just now, but now Cao Yunshang still said so, Chu Huan also asked with some interest: "How can you help me?"
"You must not have eaten yet, right?" Cao Yunshang asked Chu Huan proudly.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Chu Huan looked at the time and saw that it was already past eleven o'clock, close to twelve o'clock, and said: "Let me put it this way, I am indeed a little hungry!
"
Cao Yunshang smiled and said: "Then let me show you my skills!"
Chu Huan: "..."
As mentioned before, Cao Yunshang's cooking skills are limited to cooking noodles and steaming rice. Even after marrying Chu Huan, her skills have not improved much.
However, seeing Cao Yunshang's high-spirited look, Chu Huan did not dampen Cao Yunshang's enthusiasm and said with a smile: "Then I'll wait to eat!"
"Don't worry!" Cao Yunshang walked out of Chu Huan's office proudly and came to the kitchen...
Well, there is no such unpalatable food as in movies and TV dramas that makes you vomit. Similarly, there is no sudden enlightenment and becoming a master of cooking skills in movies and TV dramas. Cao Yunshang's cooking skills are still the same.
It’s edible, not unpalatable, that’s all!
But one thing is the same as in the movie and TV series. Cao Yunshang asked Chu Huan excitedly: "Is it delicious?"
Chu Huan said very politely: "It's quite delicious!"
After receiving Chu Huan's praise, a smile appeared on Cao Yunshang's face.
At this time, Wu Shuhan, who had been busy outside, returned. Seeing Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang eating in the office, and looking at the quality of the food on the table, Wu Shuhan instantly understood what had happened.
"Sister Yunshang, did you do this?"
Wu Shuhan asked excitedly after sitting down.
Cao Yunshang immediately nodded and said, "Yes, how about it?"
"It looks delicious. Do you still have mine?" Wu Shuhan blinked and looked at Cao Yunshang.
Cao Yunshang immediately said proudly: "Of course I have it, go get the bowls and chopsticks yourself!"
"Okay!" Wu Shuhan came to the cupboard, took out the bowls and chopsticks, sat back down in his seat, scooped out a small bowl of rice for himself, put a piece of sour pork in his mouth, and immediately praised.
"Sister Yunshang, your cooking skills are quite impressive, it's so delicious!"
Cao Yunshang was even more happy when she heard Wu Shuhan's praise, and quickly said: "If it's delicious, eat more. Anyway, you can make more!"
"Um!"
Chu Huan watched Wu Shuhan's performance and silently extended a thumbs up to Wu Shuhan. As expected, women are all born to act!
After the three of them finished eating, someone naturally came to clean up, and they returned to Chu Huan's office.
"How was the discussion with Li Jiacheng?" Chu Huan asked Wu Shuhan.
This morning Wu Shuhan was busy going to discuss cooperation with Li Jiacheng.
Wu Shuhan wiped the residue at the corner of his mouth with a tissue and said: "It went very smoothly. During the negotiation, Li Jiacheng did not deliberately dig holes. It can be seen that he is still very attentive to this cooperation!"
"I thought Li Jiacheng would choose to postpone cooperation with you because of this incident. I didn't expect him to be so active this time!"
Cao Yunshang also knew that Chu Huan wanted to invest in Changshi.
Chu Huan smiled and said: "Li Jiacheng is a smart man. Taking the initiative to discuss cooperation details with us at this time is to show his attitude."
Wu Shuhan said: "It's like this. After the negotiation, Li Jiacheng vaguely mentioned to me that because of his previous cooperation with Shen Bi, he also has some connections in the Hong Kong government. If we need it, he can help
related!"
"What did you say?" Chu Huan asked with a smile.
Wu Shuhan said: "Of course I declined his kindness. I said that the current matter is not a difficulty for us. We, Jiaku, can solve it ourselves."
Chu Huan raised his head slightly and said: "Okay, future cooperation with Li Jiacheng should be kept as pure business cooperation as possible and don't involve other things!"
"clear!"
Chu Huan still doesn't want to have too close interactions with Li Jiacheng. All this stems from Chu Huan's wariness of Li Jiacheng's abilities.
"Okay, since you don't have anything to do here, I'll go downstairs first. If anything happens, I'll come find you!"
Because Cao Yunshang has now integrated the company under her name into the Empire Fashion Group, the floors given to her before are no longer enough, so Cao Yunshang's Empire Fashion Group has moved to other buildings. Even during this time, Cao Yunshang was already thinking about it.
Isn’t it possible for Empire Fashion Group to buy its own commercial building in Xiangjiang as the company’s headquarters?
But the floor that was prepared for her now still belongs to her.
Now Chu Huan is preparing for war with some people, so Cao Yunshang decided to stay in the Chinese Bank today.
Chu Huan said with a smile: "There's nothing going on here. If you need to be busy, just go and do your own thing. We'll talk about it later when we get home!"
"Okay!" Cao Yunshang smiled and left Chu Huan's office.
Not long after Cao Yunshang left, He Bingguang came to Chu Huan's office with a look of anger and self-blame.
"Chairman, the results of the bidding for the property development rights of the MTR Corporation on the Kowloon Bay site have been announced, and our company did not win the bid!
I had already had a phone call with Reese Pemberton before I came here. In fact, our company's bidding plan this time is the best among all companies and is also the most beneficial to the MTR Corporation. They have decided to let us win the bid, but
Because the Hong Kong government intervened, they had to take down our company!"
Chu Huan's expression did not change, and there was even a hint of a smile, and he said: "So, this is the second knife prepared by those people!"
