Chapter 110 Visiting my company
The next day, the exchange activities officially started. Because there were so many people, Ms. Chu decided to divide the exchange group into several parts, and visit Sanlian Publishing House, Ming Pao, and TVB for exchanges.
Liu Hongmin was assigned to the TVB group, and Ms. Chu asked him to monitor the old man surnamed Wang and his group.
Although Uncle Shao Liu is a stingy person, he does have his heart set on the mainland.
Before crossing over, Liu Hongmin knew that he had donated buildings to many universities, all of which were named "Yifu Buildings", and had trained generations of students for the country, which was much better than some real estate tycoons who claimed to be patriotic. For this reason, Liu Hongmin still respected Uncle Shao Liu very much, but it was a pity that he was on the RTV side.
Arriving at TVB's Clearwater Bay Studios, the exchange group was truly amazed. The entire studio covers nearly 60,000 square meters, with a total area of more than 120,000 square meters, which is completely incomparable to the studios in the mainland.
Liu Hongmin helped Mr. Xu to visit the studio. Mr. Xu sighed, "No wonder the entertainment industry in Hong Kong is so developed. With such a studio as support, it would be strange if it is not developed."
"We will build a film and television base that is even bigger than this one in the future, and there will be more than one."
Mr. Xu smiled and said, "You are just good at comforting people. The country has a lot of work to do. How can there be such a waste?"
“You’ll get rich.”
Several old men surnamed Wang were sneering at the side. It would be strange if they could become rich by suppressing such talented people!
They looked around and saw a few people in suits and leather shoes, who looked like successful people, probably TVB executives. They immediately approached them with a flattering smile on their faces, trying to get close to them. As a result, the "executive" glanced at them, turned around and went into the studio next door.
Liu Hongmin couldn't help laughing, "Mr. Xu, do these people want to be actors too?"
Mr. Xu didn't understand what he meant, "Why do you say that?"
"If they don't want to be actors, why would they try to get close to those extras?"
Old Xu finally realized that Liu Hongmin was mocking those old guys for hitting the cows with horses, and he couldn't help but laugh, "Really? When we get back later, help them find a hospital!"
The old man surnamed Wang was so angry that his nose was about to be crooked. Those "seniors" just now were actually extras? What the hell...what the hell is this!!!
When they returned to the hotel in the evening, they went straight back to their room without even having dinner.
Mr. Xu won a game and was in a good mood. He ate an extra bowl of rice, drank two more ounces of wine, and went back to his room to sleep contentedly.
For the next few days, the old man surnamed Wang and his companions did not dare to act up again and followed the process obediently.
By the last day of the exchange activity, they felt that they couldn't go on like this, otherwise their trip to Hong Kong would have been in vain.
So, they began to study the unit they were going to communicate with today.
"This Tomorrow Film Company is pretty good. Although it was established not long ago, it was able to make tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars with just one movie. It must be a film company with a strong background."
"The other two, one is a newspaper that focuses on vulgarity, and the other is Zhongyuan Film Company with domestic background, neither is as good as this Tomorrow Film Company."
The old man surnamed Wang thought about it and made a decision, saying, "Let's go to Mingtian Film Company."
After making the decision, they immediately went to find Ms. Chu and told her about it.
Looking at the few people who continued to make trouble, Ms. Chu asked calmly: "Everything has been allocated. If you change now, it might be a bit bad, right?"
The old man surnamed Wang was very proud. This was exactly the effect they wanted. Ms. Chu must have assigned the boy surnamed Liu to them. Now that they temporarily changed teams, they could get rid of him.
"What's wrong with that? We are all our own people at the Central Plains Film Company. It doesn't matter if there are more or less people. But this Tomorrow Film Company is different. They have just been established and can make a profit of tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars. It must be extraordinary. To go to such a company, of course we old comrades must be there to support us. We can't rely on those young people alone!"
"Yes! The reason why we old guys came to participate in the exchange activities is to help the country."
Ms. Chu laughed in her heart, but pretended to think on the surface, "What you said makes sense."
After several people persuaded Ms. Chu to give in, they immediately intensified their persuasion. Ms. Chu pretended to hesitate for a while, and then agreed to them.
After hearing Ms. Chu's agreement, they left immediately, not giving her a chance to regret. After these people mixed into the team heading to Mingtian Film Company, Ms. Chu chuckled and waved to call Liu Hongmin over.
"Master's wife, what do you want?"
Ms. Chu said: "They went to your company, go and take a look."
Liu Hongmin nodded, "Master's wife, rest assured, leave it to me."
At Mingtian Film Company, Wang Yaowei and his employees were waiting at the door to receive the members of the exchange group.
As foreign copyright fees gradually arrived, Mingtian Film Company rented an entire floor. Wang Yaowei restructured the company, setting up many functional rooms, such as editing rooms, dressing rooms, photography studios, etc., and recruited many agents to expand the agency business.
When Liu Hongmin arrived, he almost got lost, but fortunately there were many people in the exchange group, and Liu Hongmin found them quickly.
"Mr. Liu?"
The company's receptionist came over in surprise, "You're back?"
Liu Hongmin signaled her to keep her voice down, called her to his side, and asked in a low voice, "Who is receiving the exchange group?"
"It's Mr. Wang."
"Boss Zou is not here?"
"Boss Zou went to the tax bureau. There was a problem with the tax we reported last month, so he took the accounting staff to pay the tax."
Liu Hongmin frowned slightly, "Is it okay?"
"The tax bureau left a tax bill. We just need to pay the tax and there will be no problem."
Liu Hongmin nodded and signaled the receptionist to go back to work. Then he went to Wang Yaowei's office and looked at the exchange group through the glass.
The tour was almost over, and the receptionist immediately ran over and whispered in Wang Yaowei's ear: "Mr. Liu is in your office."
Wang Yaowei nodded and said to the exchange group: "If you are interested, you can feel free to visit here. I have something else to do, so I'll excuse you."
When the old man surnamed Wang and his companions saw this, they immediately felt that an opportunity had come. They hurriedly walked a few steps to catch up with Wang Yaowei, "Mr. Wang, your company is not a Hong Kong company. It has just been established and has such a large office area and so many businesses."
Wang Yaowei was stunned for a moment, "What's up, everyone?"
The old man surnamed Wang and the others looked at each other and said, "There are some things I want to discuss with Mr. Wang."
"Why don't you guys wait for me in the conference room? I'll come find you after I finish my work?"
Several people nodded and said, "Yes, yes!"
Wang Yaowei pointed out the location of the meeting room to them and then opened the office.
Just as they were about to leave, they saw Liu Hongmin in the office and immediately exclaimed, "Why are you here?"
Liu Hongmin smiled and said, "Oh, Mr. Wang, what a coincidence! I didn't expect to see you here."
Several people felt extremely sick as if they had eaten a fly.
Why does this kid named Liu follow me wherever I go?
