Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978

"Uncle Six, I just say it doesn't matter."

Although he didn't know what conditions Uncle Liu wanted to put forward, Lin Daoqiu guessed that it would definitely not be a trivial matter.

"The current value of Shaw Brothers Cinemas is only 250 million. As long as Mr. Lin promises me not to acquire ATV within ten years, I will sell Shaw Brothers Cinemas to you for 250 million.

"

Just a promise can save 50 million on this business, which seems to be a good deal for Lin Daoqiu.

But Lin Daoqiu didn't even think about it, he just shook his head and rejected Shao Run Run's offer.

It was 1981 at this time. The next ten years could be said to be the golden age for the rise of the television industry. How could Lin Daoqiu give up these golden ten years just for 50 million?

"Sorry Uncle Six, I can't agree to this condition."

Although Uncle Liu is not a person who has traveled through time, he also knows that in the past ten years, due to the popularity of television sets, the battle between TVB and ATV will probably become more intense.

If Lin Daoqiu finally joins ATV and becomes the head of ATV, this will definitely not be a good thing for TVB.

"It seems that Mr. Lin is determined to win ATV. If this is the case, then it is even more impossible for me to sell Shaw Brothers Cinemas to you."

If Lin Daoqiu buys Shaw Brothers Cinemas and then buys ATV too, TVB will have no room to fight back.

Even though they still have regular ratings as a guarantee, Lin Daoqiu's two dramas in the past few years have narrowed the gap between them.

Once he takes over ATV, as long as he helps ATV produce a few excellent TV series every year, by then, TVB's advantages may no longer exist, and it may even follow in the footsteps of Shaw Brothers.

Since he could foresee such a result, Uncle Six would never give Lin Daoqiu this chance.

So between Shaw Brothers Cinemas and ATV, he could only choose one.

As long as Lin Daoqiu did not acquire ATV during these golden ten years, Uncle Liu would still be confident that he could stabilize ATV.

As for ten years later, I will be over eighty years old by then.

If ATV has not collapsed by then, it will not make much difference to TVB whether or not Lin Daoqiu intervenes.

"Uncle Six, I'm willing to add 50 million for you to see..."

Lin Daoqiu didn't want the Shaw Brothers theater chain to fall into Bao Shaogang's hands, so he had no choice but to open his wallet and add 50 million to the other party.

But unfortunately, Uncle Liu had no reaction at all to Lin Daoqiu's price increase.

After all, compared to TVB, whether it is 100 million or 50 million, it seems insignificant.

"Mr. Lin, if you want to buy it, agree to my conditions. Otherwise, I can only sell Shaw Brothers Cinemas to Mr. Bao and let him control you."

Uncle Liu was not afraid that Lin Daoqiu would know his intentions, he even said it in front of the other party.

If Lin Daoqiu insists on joining ATV, all Uncle Liu can do is to find ways to contain him.

Selling Shaw Brothers Cinemas to Bao Shaogang is a good way to let the two of them fight for several years, which can also buy TVB a little more time.

"Uncle Six is ​​really good at it."

Lin Daoqiu didn't have any good ideas at this time. He knew that Uncle Liu had made up his mind.

Even if I increase it to 400 million, the other party will not be able to sell Shaw Brothers Cinemas to me.

Unless he is willing to agree to Uncle Six's conditions, he will not be allowed to take over ATV within ten years.

"Mr. Lin, I'm just thinking about it for myself. I'll give you three days to think about it. If you agree, give me a call. If I don't receive your call within three days, then I will call Shao

The theater chain will be sold to Mr. Bao."

Uncle Liu was definitely not joking with Lin Daoqiu. Since he said so, he would not make any changes.

Lin Daoqiu looked at the other party without saying a word. It was impossible for him to agree to Uncle Six's conditions.

Now it seems that I have drifted away from Shaw Brothers Cinemas.

…………

"What did you say? Uncle Liu and Lin Daoqiu met in the afternoon?"

Bao Shaogang didn't expect that Lin Daoqiu would go to Liu Shu for an interview so quickly, and he didn't know what he actually said to Liu Shu at that time.

Was he trying to acquire the Shaw Brothers theater chain, or was he trying to persuade Uncle Liu not to sell the theater chain to him?

"Did you hear what they talked about?"

Bao Shaogang quickly asked Fan Jiaming.

Fan Jiaming shook his head. He only knew that Uncle Liu and Lin Daoqiu met, but what they talked about was unknown.

"What a loser. I can't even find this."

Mr. Bao was angry when he saw Fan Jiaming, but now he didn't even think about scolding him, because what he had to think about now was what he should do.

Since Lin Daoqiu had met Uncle Liu, and he already knew that he was acquiring Shaw Brothers Cinemas, it would definitely not be a casual chat when he went to see Uncle Liu.

Picking up the phone, he quickly dialed Fang Yihua. All Bao Shaogang could think about now was increasing the price.

"Miss Fang, I think the price of 320 million is not very good, so I decided to add 30 million, right...right...what? Give me a reply in three days? Well, I'll wait for Miss Fang's call.

.”

After putting down the phone, Bao Shaogang frowned deeply. Although Fang Yihua promised to give him a reply in three days, Bao Shaogang still felt very uneasy.

If Uncle Six suddenly makes the decision to sell the theater chain to Lin Daoqiu during this period, then he will be in vain.

"How about asking the elders in the family to talk to Uncle Six?"

Fan Jiaming suddenly gave Bao Shaogang a suggestion.

But as soon as he finished speaking, Bao Shaogang gave him a sharp look.

"Such a trivial matter should alarm the elders in the family. Do you think I am as useless as you? What would my family think if I let them know that I can't even handle such a trivial matter?"

Bao Shaogang was almost pissed off by Fan Jiaming. Did he think he was as useless as him? If he goes to an adult for help when he encounters a little difficulty, he will only be looked down upon.

Fan Jiaming could only show a flattering smile after being scolded by Bao Shaogang.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Bao, I didn't think enough. I will definitely pay attention to it in the future."

Bao Shaogang really couldn't understand why Fan Jiaming, who was also a child of a big family, was so useless. No wonder he couldn't even be ranked as the heir in the Fan family.

Lying on the armchair, Bao Shaogang's brain began to work rapidly, and all he could think about was Lin Daoqiu, the guy he hated.

"Lin Daoqiu, I don't believe that with the financial resources of our Bao family, we can't defeat a guy like you. When I buy Shaw Brothers Cinemas, I will let you know that the name of Xiangjiang Film Tycoon is

, who is the most suitable person."

Having said this, Bao Shaogang finally showed a happy smile on his face, and he had even begun to imagine Lin Daoqiu being stepped on by him and begging for mercy.
