My Lord, you need to stand up!

Chapter 882 It's still uncertain who will call whom "Dad"
Indeed, perhaps seeing the secretary's reaction, when Wei Dong excused himself and got up, Director Tang requested that his secretary be sent to ATV to oversee the situation and track the progress of the matter.

Out of politeness, Wei Dong nodded to his secretary, then suddenly widened his eyes and forcefully withdrew his hand!
Zou Huimin!

Perhaps no one expected that this seemingly innocent and pure female leader would be hiding next to the Director of Broadcasting in Hong Kong!

This seems to explain how, during the filthy era of Hong Kong films, she managed to walk on the shore without twisting her ankle or falling into the vortex of negative reviews from other top actresses.

Even if some unfounded rumors circulated later, it was already considered to have been completely eradicated.

However, she made Wei Dong remember that her marriage wasn't very good, that she married a scumbag or something.

It was just a fleeting moment of amazement. Even though the other person was standing at attention, bowing, and extending their hand, I just casually touched their fingers as if we had shaken hands, and then went out with my wife.

Qin Yuye immediately chuckled softly in Jiangzhou dialect, "I saw it!"

Wei Dong scoffed, "What are you looking at? They've already started the process of applying for changes to the TV station's qualifications over the past ten days, and you still haven't figured out that the head of the broadcasting department is a woman? You're acting all sneaky and full of tricks. What are you doing?!"

Women really do have a different perspective: "I'm absolutely not mistaken. The instant your expression changed was exactly the same as when you saw me three years ago. It's not a matter of whether she's lustful or not. You didn't have this kind of reaction to Lina, A-Qian, or many other beautiful women in the station."

What could Wei Dong say? In his mind, the most vivid memory of the security guard dormitory he had lived in forty years was the poster of the "Queen of the Night" on the opposite bed, and then the most common poster was of Zou Huimin next door. Other actresses like Chu Hong and Brigitte Lin had to come later.

Anyway, he didn't know why, but in the dormitories and even the Hong Kong star posters on the street in the 80s and 90s, the most popular one should actually be Zou Huimin.

Even celebrities like Jiaxin, Zhilin, Lina, and A-Ling, who are often touted as being incredibly famous, don't get as much exposure as she does.

It seems that Ah Qian and Huang Rong belong to the earlier generation, and they are more commonly seen on elementary school students' pencil case stickers. These other characters belong to the later generation, and they are no longer popular for posters.

Even though they were around the same age as her, Zou Huimin was the most refreshing and unique presence in the era of Hong Kong stars who were competing with each other.

Qin Yuye is far from it; she only manages to hold on by relying on her sexy, married woman persona.

It was purely because the colleague across the street was her fantasy goddess that Wei Dong felt she was familiar to him the moment he opened his eyes.

In short, these two left the deepest impression on him.

Moreover, seeing a Hong Kong-style actress from my memory for the first time three years ago must have been quite stunning.

People of all kinds are tired of seeing this now, and it's not surprising at all.

The main thing today was actually seeing Zou Huimin next to the head of the broadcasting department, which had a somewhat gossipy meaning.

He's probably too lazy to explain now: "Let's go, let's go back and discuss this land matter properly."

Unexpectedly, Qin Yuye was seen intimately arm in arm with Zou Huimin at ATV not long after.

No one else paid any attention; there were plenty of handsome men and beautiful women out there.

Wei Dong was instructed to gather Liang Jiahui, Jiang Jialing, Rong Gu, Zheng Zhiwei, and several other senior executives to discuss the matter.

The spies should stay out of it and not interfere. She wandered around like a good best friend, and even went to see Shen Cuiyue.

Everyone at the meeting scratched their heads after hearing this.

Let's move. This building will definitely take another year or two to complete. It's too far to solve a problem now. The key issue is that moving to the suburbs is really not classy. I don't really want to work in a remote place.

Hong Kong's elites all consider it their mission to concentrate in Tsim Sha Tsui and Central.

If we don't move, it's really not enough. It's quite rare for the broadcasting department to be so willing to release land for relocation.

Zheng Zhiwei was originally a football player. His father was one of the Chinese detectives. After his family fell on hard times, he worked as a stuntman with Brother Long and worked with other big shots on film ideas, so he is very knowledgeable.

“At that time, the mainland was in turmoil, and a similar incident also occurred in Hong Kong. In 1967, the Hong Kong government allocated land on this hill to various broadcasting organizations as their headquarters, and then built the road so that there was only one exit on the ground, making it easy to defend and difficult to attack. There was also the Kowloon East Barracks nearby for support. It was originally intended to be a strategic fortress. Who would have thought that you, boss, would suddenly get involved.”

Even after twenty years, this sense of vigilance will certainly still exist.

Wei Dong's surprise attack, coupled with the immediate changes he made, left no red flags and no evidence against him.

A senior TV executive familiar with Tang Anlin quickly explained: "We didn't know who would contact the boss before. Ms. Tang is generally neutral, neither favoring either the mainland nor the mainland. She is committed to maintaining Hong Kong's local image and status. She withstood a lot of pressure from the mainland regarding the development of TV stations and radio stations, but she didn't seem to put much effort into the mainland. So this may be because the Hong Kong government asked her to do something, but she still tried her best to fight for us within her authority."

"When Ms. Tang was in college twenty years ago, she worked part-time as a translator for ATV. Her first job after graduation was as an assistant director at ATV. There is still a connection between them."

The key point he felt needed to focus on was keeping Wei Dong silent and uncommitted on this matter, which he believed required seizing a ten-year opportunity to reorganize and reorganize the situation.

Children separated for nearly a century will inevitably feel awkward and uncomfortable returning home.

It is even more necessary for media organizations to influence public opinion.

He tapped his fingers lightly on the table: "What's the point of moving to Sha Tin? Construction funding isn't the problem. The key is that I live on the south side of Hong Kong Island. Commuting to work means crossing the entire city. The only advantage is that it might be more convenient for me to travel to Pengzhen."

To everyone's surprise, the boss was concerned about the long commute when the company was relocating.

He inadvertently exuded an air of dominance. The atmosphere instantly became relaxed and lighthearted, with suggestions ranging from buying a helicopter to building a luxury mansion in Sha Tin.

Wei Dong, however, was used to building dormitories: "If we're going to do it, the TV headquarters building and the staff housing area will definitely be built at the same time. Even if you have a house, you can enjoy the cost price to buy a house. The middle and senior management and entertainment stars should try to build houses, townhouses, villas and the like. I will take care of the land acquisition and construction."

He made it sound so easy, but everyone was rubbing their hands together. It turned out that even Zheng Zhiwei was renting a place to live at this time!

Despite having directed two blockbuster films, he hasn't actually received much money from them.

Just enough to make ends meet!

Most of the people present were locals, such as Leung Ka-fai, whose family owned a house, but who genuinely couldn't afford to buy one after graduating and becoming independent.

An average college graduate earns 3,000 yuan a month, while a 50-square-meter apartment in the city center would cost at least 2 million yuan.

Ultimately, everyone here has to think carefully about what they can earn at most a few tens of thousands a month.

Buying one that's too small is a bit embarrassing, and buying one that's too big is too much trouble to care for.

If you leverage your assets, the recent unpredictable situation could really lead to bankruptcy if you're not careful.

Hong Kong companies operate with a business-oriented approach. After get off work, even shareholders and senior executives have their own private time and space and will not work overtime for the company for free.

The company doesn't provide housing for its employees; if they can get housing or rent subsidies, that's considered a very humane boss.

As a result, Wei Dong brought over the system from the state-owned factories in mainland China.

In reality, he himself had not experienced the later pure commercial housing sales, but was used to the collective housing model in the tax compound, where housing was still sold at the unit's construction cost price even 20 or 30 years later.

Everyone was very excited and suggested that we move it.

If the current land could be cleared out for high-end real estate development, and there were discounts available for domestic buyers, then high-ranking officials would grit their teeth and buy here, truly upgrading their lives and becoming members of the upper class.

I can drive to Sha Tin every day for my commute.

They all got quite excited and started talking.

Fortunately, Liang Jiahui was thinking: "Does the Broadcasting Department want us to have more contact with universities?"

At that time, Sha Tin had the best modern racecourse in Hong Kong, Asia and even the world, as well as a university town on the outskirts of the city, which concentrated several universities and vocational schools there.

As a single city with a population of several million, it was impossible for it to be like the university towns in inland provincial capitals that later gathered more than a dozen colleges and universities.

In short, that area is already quite concentrated.

Oh, another clue: "Ms. Tang graduated from the Chinese University of Hong Kong. Could this be because she wants us to collaborate more with the Chinese University?"

So a few mediocre people might actually be as good as one brilliant strategist.

Qin Yuye wasn't idle either; he took Zou Huimin around to get to know her better.

They are the same age and both entered competitions immediately after graduating from high school to earn money.

Qin Yuye originally planned to participate in the Miss ATV pageant, but after going to the mainland, she got married and unexpectedly became the boss's wife of ATV!
Zou Huimin participated in singing competitions, lost in the first year, and finally won second place in the second year, becoming a host at a Hong Kong radio station.

Their life trajectories have diverged dramatically.

So they had a very close conversation, and it turned out that the newly appointed president of the Chinese University mentioned to Director Tang how awesome Wei Dong and his wife were in North America!
In 85, he helped Steve and Apple Computer turn around their sales, and that was only in terms of marketing skills.

In 86, Apple Computer relied on OEM manufacturing to help control costs and expand production capacity, highlighting its strength in manufacturing, and also contributing to the sales performance created by the Kungfu software package.

The miraculous launch of the sound card this year has helped Apple achieve an astonishing annual sales record of 7.4 million units worldwide from June to now!

These are well-known facts in the North American IT community. The electrical engineering scientist, who had just returned from Yale University, was naturally very excited about the achievements of Chinese people in the field of electronic computers.

Perhaps only he truly understands how deep the foundation of this couple's wealth is!
It has marketing, production, and R&D capabilities, and it's on the right track in all of them.

So the message Zou Huimin revealed to her new best friend was that the Chinese University of Hong Kong really wanted to invite Wei Dong to move his most important business in Hong Kong there.

Scientists who are oblivious to what's happening around them probably don't know that Wei Dong invested hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars to build a basketball stadium.

But none of this stopped him from coming to Tang Anlin that very night after receiving her feedback, determined to persuade Wei Dong to move there at all costs.

This scientific giant, who holds a lifetime membership in the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), which is roughly equivalent to being inducted into the NBA Hall of Fame, has a nickname: "Father of Fiber Optics" or "Godfather of Broadband."

When he heard the concept of the internet being relayed, his reaction was...
