The Red Era: The Crowd in the Siheyuan

Chapter 512: Honghu Film Company
After Lou Xiao'e finished speaking, she suddenly had an idea and said,
"Zhu Zi, what do you think about us selling our shares to the boss?
Anyway, we don't have many opportunities to come to Hong Kong Island, and we have no idea how much money the company has made. The dividends are still decided by the boss and his wife.

Instead of doing this, we might as well sell the shares to them and use the money to do our own business.
What do you think? "

Hearing Lou Xiao'e talking about selling shares, He Yuzhu thought about it and it seemed that it was not completely impossible.

When the price of Lou's stock goes up, my brother-in-law will have a lot of money, and it is not impossible to buy back the shares that the couple has already held.

Apart from feeling sorry for the stock investors in Hong Kong, there is no other impact. After all, when it comes to stocks, you have to accept the consequences if you gamble.

"Okay, then let's talk to Big Brother about it in a couple of days and see what he thinks."

I have to say that the efficiency of the commercial society is really high.
While the couple was resting in the guest room, someone from the Governor's Office had already sent them an invitation, inviting He Yuzhu and his wife and the Lou family to attend a welcome reception the next night.

He Yuzhu, who knew what was going on, was only surprised at the efficiency of the Governor's Office, and then stopped caring about it.
The next day, he asked Lou Jinhong to take him and his wife for a walk.

As the driver drove down the mountain, Lou Jinhong, who was sitting in the passenger seat, introduced the scenery along the way. Soon they arrived at Central, next to the Mid-Levels.
After learning about the prices of jewelry and jade in Hong Kong Island in detail, He Yuzhu couldn't help but shake his head.

Although the price of jewelry and jade is high, due to the depressed economic environment, there are almost no customers. If you sell it now, you can't get the price at all.
I'd better wait until I talk to my brother-in-law about the share repurchase.

After visiting several bustling places in Hong Kong Island, Lou Jinhong began to invite He Yuzhu and his wife to visit the film company run by the two brothers.
When He Yuzhu heard that he and Lou Jinhu had their own film company, and remembered that Lou Zhenhua had said before that the two brothers loved to play, he knew that this so-called film company was probably a shell company used specifically to pick up girls.

However, Lou Jinhong and his brother were not children and had their own ideas. It was not their turn as their uncle to worry about them.
Moreover, Hong Kong films were about to enter their golden age and were indeed making a lot of money. There was no harm in learning more about it, so I decided to go along.

really,

When He Yuzhu walked into the so-called Honghu Film Company, he immediately discovered that it was just a makeshift team with only a few people.

Lou Jinhu, one of the company's bosses, was not at Lou's at the moment, but was flirting with the girl at the front desk.

Seeing He Yuzhu and Lou Xiaoe walk in from outside led by the boss, Lou Jinhu immediately became serious.

"Aunt, uncle, you are here!"

When Lou Jinhu became serious, the receptionist heard that it was the elders of the Lou family who came. She probably had some thoughts and stopped smiling. She stood beside them with a dignified look on her face, apparently wanting to leave a good impression on He Yuzhu and his wife.

He Yuzhu and Lou Xiao'e didn't want to be annoying, so they tacitly pretended not to notice Lou Jinhu's behavior.
Instead, he asked about the film company's business situation.

"Jinhong, Jinhu, how do you run this film company? Why are there so few people during working hours?"

Seeing their aunt asking about the operation of the company, the two brothers were a little embarrassed. Their film company was just for fun, and there was no serious business to do.

Finally, I had no choice but to say,

"Aunt, our film company has just started, and we don't have any specific business right now. In order to save costs, we don't hire many people."

Lou Xiao'e was just asking casually, without digging into the matter.
"Okay, then you go about your business and let Jinhong show us around."

Hearing this, Lou Jinhu breathed a sigh of relief and then winked at his elder brother. When He Yuzhu and his wife walked into the company, the receptionist began to smile and spend money lavishly, while asking about the situation.

"Second Young Master, when did you have an aunt? Why have I never heard you mention it before?"

Seeing the girl at the front desk acting strangely, Lou Jinhu grabbed her hand and sighed.
"My aunt and uncle just came from the mainland yesterday. You know what the situation was like before, so why am I telling you this?"

"She's just a northern girl who came to seek refuge with her relatives. What is there to be afraid of, Young Master?

These days, only those with money can be considered the boss.”

Hearing the girl at the front desk talking nonsense, Lou Jinhu subconsciously covered her mouth, then looked inside the company, and only heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that his aunt and uncle did not react.
"What do you know? Do you know how our Lou family became successful in just a dozen years?

Because of my uncle,
He didn't come to Hong Kong Island to seek refuge with his relatives this time, he has a mission. Even the Governor of Hong Kong will hold a cocktail party tonight to welcome my uncle. Do you think I am afraid?"

As one of the few tycoons in Hong Kong Island, the Lou family's history of prosperity has always been talked about by the people in Hong Kong Island.
Most people know that they have strong backgrounds backed by the mainland.

The girl at the front desk is no exception.

"Second Young Master, is that the relative who arranged for your Lou family to come to the mainland? No wonder you are so afraid of him. If you can please him, even a little bit of information leaked out would be enough to support our company."

Then, the girl at the front desk asked with a look of longing,

"Second Young Master, can you attend the Governor's cocktail party tonight?"

Seeing the hopeful expression on the receptionist's face, Lou Jinhu knew what she was thinking. Playing was fun, but he had no intention of marrying her.

"What are you imagining? I can go to that kind of place only because of my uncle. How can I take you there?
Be good, don't make trouble, I'll give you candy when I come back."

Hearing this, the girl at the front desk spat softly, but in her heart she was thinking about how to get promoted.

He Yuzhu and his wife naturally didn't know what was happening outside, and Lou Xiao'e's mind was full of what He Yuzhu said yesterday afternoon about cutting leeks for a small life. The idea of ​​making money was very strong.
The two of them asked various questions while touring the company.

"Jinhong, why are you two brothers thinking of opening a film company? It's so easy to make money in this industry that even laymen like you want to get involved."

Hearing Lou Xiao'e's question, Lou Jinhong smiled and nodded.

"Sure, Auntie.

In 1970, the box office champion of Hong Kong Island, "Dragon Tiger Fight", sold 200 million Hong Kong dollars, and in 76, "Half a Catty, Eight Taels" sold 853 million Hong Kong dollars.
Even if you search the entire Hong Kong Island, you won't find such a low-investment, high-return industry.
Of course we also want to get involved.

However, talent is the most important thing in this industry. Bruce Lee in the past and the Xu brothers now are both box office guarantees.
There are countless small companies like ours in Hong Kong Island.”
