the longest dream

Chapter 313 Qingzi, you don't like TVB, do you?

TBV headquarters building.

in the chairman's office.

Zhang Qing sat beside Qiao Beiyan's chair, peeling apples for him.

Seeing his unhurried movements, patient and steady, Qiao Beiyan laughed dumbly and said, "When I was your age, I made my first fortune, which was about [-] silver dollars."

Zhang Qing smiled and said: "It's a lot of money, in terms of purchasing power, it's quite good."

Qiao Beiyan nodded and said, "That's right. At that time, a rickshaw pulling a foreign car for a day could earn a dime or two at most. I still remember how ecstatic I was when I made the money. Go to a foreigner restaurant and eat a lot I drank it for a week, and called friends, for fear that others would not know that I made money."

Zhang Qing just laughed, Qiao Beiyan looked at him and said, "Look at you again, you have earned half of my life savings once, but there is no reaction."

Zhang Qing said with a smile: "At most half of my life, or the first [-] years when I made less money."

With that said, he handed the apple to Qiao Beiyan.

Qiao Beiyan shook his head and said, "It's enough to cut a tooth. I'm old and I can't cure it anymore."

After Zhang Qing cut a thin slice for him and ate it in his mouth, Qiao Beiyan fell into memories again: "It was an era of turbulent wind and clouds, and outstanding people from all walks of life appeared on the Huangpu River. There were also British, French, Americans, Germans, Japanese, a lot of ghosts..."

Zhang Qing asked, "Uncle Six, do those ghosts really not treat Chinese people as human beings?"

Qiao Beiyan said hehe, "Qingzi, how can it be so simple?"

Zhang Qing was puzzled, "How to say?"

Qiao Beiyan said: "Ghosts are very smart. They will not brutally humiliate all Chinese people. They will treat some people, some elites, especially the cultural elites kindly. Treat them politely, and give them all their upbringing. Those people. And tell them that they treat the people below roughly because those people are uncivilized and are ignorant and stupid. Only the elites are their fellows. This trick is cruel and poisonous, and it is an absolute trick .”

Zhang Qing heard this unheard-of words, digested it for a while, and then slowly said: "No wonder, so many literati masters sang praises for them, and regretted being born as a Chinese."

Qiao Beiyan said: "This trick is a trick that foreigners have tried a hundred times, and it has been used all the time. The Huangpu River was like this a hundred years ago, and it is the same in Hong Kong Island now. You are so shrewd, Qingzi, don't underestimate the enemy .In particular, don’t show hostility too early.”

Zhang Qing said with a smile: "I know this, I won't expose it, and I will integrate into it. Learn their film industry and technology, and borrow their funds."

Qiao Beiyan used his life experience to teach Zhang Qing: "If you want to make money from ghosts, the best way is to make money with them. The one-stop operation in the mainland is not suitable for bald eagles. What are the interests of all parties?" Balance is a university question. You can study Hollywood blockbusters and see how many aspects they share in the benefits."

Zhang Qing nodded and said, "I see, Uncle Six, I will study it carefully."

At this time, Li Fangjie brought Qi Juan in after visiting Qiao's Cinema, and boasted to Qiao Beiyan: "A Juan is really different, she is dignified and humorous, she is a person who does great things!"

Qiao Beiyan laughed and said, "He who does heavy work is naturally very capable. It's just that the two of you are both busy with one career, and you are both busy. How will you coordinate after getting married?"

Zhang Qing smiled and said, "I'll follow her. I'm a content creator, not an entrepreneur. Hire a professional manager to handle company affairs, and I'll be in charge of content creation. Zhong Sheng could have continued to create more works, but unfortunately he was busy with I don’t have the energy to create any more about the Ming Pao Group. When the business is on the right track, I’ll hire someone to manage it, as long as I have a veto.”

Qiao Beiyan shook his head again and again and said, "In our land, it's not feasible to engage in this kind of thing. In fact, it's not feasible in the Bald Eagle Country. Otherwise, why would Disney change its surname?"

Zhang Qing said with a smile: "Disney is because it is a listed company, and Du Juan is not listed. The manager is also a good friend, so don't be afraid."

"childish!"

Qiao Beiyan criticized unceremoniously: "Do you think that the company's listing is just to collect money? No, it's to share profits. Especially when one's own strength is not strong, this strength is not only about wealth, but also about wealth. Networks and power. For a businessman, how do you get connections and power? It comes from sharing interests. What kind of alliance is the most reliable way is to use interests to connect allies. Also, business matters , How can it be measured by personal feelings? Not to say that in business, there is a pure interest relationship, but also friendship. A beautiful friendship can be icing on the cake. But judging loyalty based on friendship is too naive."

Zhang Qing nodded with a serious expression, and after thinking for a moment, said: "At present, I can't become a truly qualified entrepreneur, let alone a businessman like Yu Shixun."

Qiao Beiyan said: "Actually, your best housekeeper is your girlfriend. She has a good personality, is smart, and studies economics."

Zhang Qing looked at Qi Juan, and said helplessly: "There is a lot of things in her family that she needs to take over. The heavy industry is very tiring and hard. How can I add more burdens to her?"

Qiao Beiyan smiled and said: "To be the chairman of a large group, you don't have to do everything yourself. What you need to master is the strategy of the general direction. Qingzi, you have thought clearly about what you want to do and how to do it, haven't you? Then the specific daily tasks can be done by the manager, and the inspection of the manager can be done by the chairman. Even if a girl like A Juan takes over the heavy industry group, she can't go to the workshop to operate, after all, she still has to manage People should be selected to use their talents. If you are in charge of one side, you will also be in charge of the other side. They are nothing more than two business groups.

Of course, these are things after you get married.Miss Qi still needs to study and exercise, otherwise the pressure will be too great.You can be the chairman of the heavy industry group first, and then take over Du Juan when you mature. "

This is very straightforward...

Only by taking Tianhong as a dowry can he be qualified to manage Dujuan.

Zhang Qing was a little embarrassed, but Qi Juan was normal, and said with a smile: "It will probably take ten or twenty years."

Li Fangjie smiled and said: "Ten or twenty years is not too long. I have worked in Qiao's for so many years, and I have worked in TVB for many years before I barely became the general manager. There are really many things. A Juan will have to suffer in the future , women always suffer.”

Zhang Qing didn't say anything. If she said that she must get married as soon as possible, then Li Fangjie might feel awkward. After all, she had been waiting for more than forty years...

He changed the subject and said, "Uncle Six, there is one more thing I want to ask you..."

Qiao Beiyan smiled and said, "Ming Pao has been taken down, do you have any other ideas?"

Zhang Qing nodded, and said: "There is no doubt that in the future, the business of Dujuan Culture in Hong Kong Island will suffer from a lot of sewage attacks. It is reunification and reunification, but the laws of Hong Kong Island have not changed, and those newspapers will only intensify and become more unscrupulous. If you want to fight back, you can't rely on "Ming Pao" alone, and it's also difficult to rely on the newspaper industry. Tigers are hard to beat wolves. Only TV stations can stand up to fight..."

Li Fangjie's expression changed when she heard this, and she said, "Qingzi, you don't like TVB, do you? Is it too early?"

Zhang Qing laughed and said, "Nothing. TVB is the lifelong effort of Uncle Six and Aunt Six, how could I covet it?"

Li Fangjie was not relieved, and asked: "Then what do you mean... Oh, are you thinking about ATV?"

Zhang Qing gave a thumbs up and said, "Sixth Aunt is wise!"

Li Fangjie looked at Qiao Beiyan, and said hesitantly: "ATV is now in the hands of the Yao family of Lixin Group. The Yao family owns at least seven listed groups with a market value of tens of billions. They are the top ten richest people in Hong Kong Island. How can they make a move?" ATV?"

Zhang Qingdao: "The Siamese stock market, foreign exchange market, and property market have all plummeted, and the turmoil caused has begun to spread to the entire Southeast Asia. Lixin Group's basic market is in Nanyang. This time, I am afraid that if it does not die, it will also hurt its vitality. Of course, not now. But so If the waves continue, sooner or later it will hurt my muscles and bones. If that day comes, I hope that Uncle Six will come forward to help me and take down ATV."

There are only two licenses for free TV stations on Hong Kong Island, one for TVB and one for ATV.

It's just that compared to wireless's smooth sailing and deep roots, ATV has been ups and downs in recent years, with good times and bad times, and a lot of fate...

It has changed owners several times, and some people say that ATV's feng shui is not very good, and it is not unreasonable.

In the 80s, it was about to turn around. When the ratings of several popular TV dramas surpassed TVB, after a big fire, they gained vitality, and then gradually declined...

But no matter what, this is a TV station! !

In the mainland, there is no need to think about this kind of thing for another hundred years, and there is no chance. Let alone TV stations, radio stations and radio broadcasts are not allowed.

But the allure of a TV station, especially a wireless free TV station is too great!
If the management is good, Zhang Qing's status will be more than doubled!
But this matter must be communicated with Qiao Beiyan.

Because once ATV is won, it will form the most direct competitive relationship with Wireless.

The first person who refused was Li Fangjie.

"Qingzi, with TVB here, why do you have to go into this muddy water?"

Li Fangjie persuaded.

Zhang Qing said with a smile: "Aunt Six, I am from the mainland after all, and the focus of my business group in the future will also be in the mainland. Given the pissing nature of the media in Hong Kong Island, it is inevitable to pour dirty water on the mainland, and the relevant departments will come to me to solve the problem TVB will definitely not be able to take this kind of work, and the sixth uncle and sixth aunt have to explain to the shareholders. I am too embarrassed to ask you two elders for this kind of thing. So, just find a good time to take down ATV. Sixth aunt, don’t worry , ATV's future base will not be in Hong Kong Island, but overseas. And I have never run a TV station, so I have to ask Aunt Six to give me some pointers. Wow, Aunt Six, you will manage two TV stations by yourself in the future. How awesome! !"

Li Fangjie couldn't help laughing, and reprimanded: "It will make people happy! It's useless for you to tell me, let's see if Uncle Six can help you!"

Qiao Beiyan asked a core question: "Qingzi, can you get the TV station's landing rights in the Mainland?"

Zhang Qing shook his head and said, "It's unlikely, unless you are willing to accept comprehensive censorship, but in that case, TV dramas and news will be cut in a mess, I don't like it."

Qiao Beiyan said slowly: "I have to think about this matter carefully. This is not just about money, but also involves the views of the Hong Kong government. After all, you are not a Hong Kong citizen."

Zhang Qing laughed and said, "So please, Uncle Six."

Free TV stations are really not something that can be done with money. Yu Shixun's family always wants to get involved in the media industry, especially free TV stations, but there is no chance because the Hong Kong government does not approve it.

If the Yu family was allowed to get a free TV license, his family would be willing to fight to the end even if they lost money, because in that case, Hong Kong Island would really belong to the Yu family.

It is also not easy for Zhang Qing to win because of his status.

But it would be much easier if Qiao Beiyan helped.

If the Hong Kong Island branch of the Chinese Society comes forward, the hope will be much greater.

Li Fangjie suddenly said: "Qingzi, what will happen to your novels after you have a TV station?"

Zhong Qu's TV series has been filmed many times, and it is difficult to produce new ideas.

However, Zhang Qing's "Shooting the Condors" and "The Condors" have benefited TVB a lot. The skyrocketing ratings means skyrocketing advertising costs, and even more so, the rise of the stock market.

Wireless, with a market value of tens of billions, every point of rise in the stock price is a huge sum.

If Zhang Qing had his own TV station, would he still let TVB shoot his book?
Li Fangjie put all her heart and soul into making friends with Zhang Qing, mostly because of his books, for which she was willing to pay Huaxing Records.

If things go wrong now, she will die of heartache.

Zhang Qing comforted with a smile: "Don't worry, Aunt Six, we can sign a permanent authorization contract, but all my books can be photographed by Wireless."

Li Fangjie looked sideways: "Then what do you do?"

Zhang Qing said with a smile, "Let's shoot TVB first, remake it in Asia in a few years, and then remake it in a few years, it doesn't matter. Anyway, the book is so good, the audience will never get tired of reading it."

The market he values ​​has never been a small Hong Kong Island...

Li Fangjie finally felt relieved, and said with a smile: "You have so many tricks!"

……

On the way back to Deep Water Bay, Qi Juan looked at Zhang Qing and said with a smile, "You are too thick-skinned!"

Zhang Qing was puzzled: "Why?"

Qi Juan said with a smile: "You actually asked Uncle Six to use his connections to help you take down ATV. Uncle Six may not feel at ease."

Zhang Qing shook his head and said: "The old man will understand. You can rest assured, at least I won't worry about wireless."

Qi Juan giggled and said, "When you just said that you were interested in the TV station, Li Fangjie's face changed. She also felt a little uncomfortable later on. She probably won't agree."

Zhang Qing said with a chuckle: "Agree or disagree, ATV is something I must have. The timeliness of newspapers is still a bit slow, and TV is much more intuitive."

Qi Juan was puzzled and said, "Why are you so obsessed with the TV station? I never even thought that a private person can own a TV station..."

Zhang Qing said indifferently: "The TV station is the terminal existence of the media and cultural industry. Winning a TV station, especially a TV station that can deploy overseas, will have a huge impetus to our business. Furthermore...

The income of Siam alone has exceeded expectations, and the income that can be obtained from this financial crisis may be far beyond imagination.Even if we use many means to hide, but no matter how we cover up and hide, we won't be able to hide for too long, two or three years.

Therefore, I must have my own self-protection power as soon as possible.

With a TV station in hand, those wolf paws will be more scrupulous. "
