Reborn as a tycoon in Hong Kong

At the dinner, Lin Baicheng was chatting with Hong Jinbao, the Xu brothers and others.

From the beginning of this year to now, Hong Jinbao and others' Seven Little Blessings Film Company has released two movies, both of which were pretty good at the box office. The combined box office of the two films was nearly 5 million Hong Kong dollars. Earned nearly 2 million Hong Kong dollars.

This is only the box office share in Hong Kong. Overseas screenings, copyright sales, video tapes and other markets have not been taken into account. The total profit of the two movies can be 3 million Hong Kong dollars.

Seven Little Blessings Film Company plans to shoot four movies this year, and one is currently being shot, and another movie will be shot before the year. If the box office performance of the subsequent two movies is not bad, then the company's profits this year will only be higher.

Although Xingchen Pictures holds 51% of the shares of Seven Little Blessings Film Company, Lin Baicheng still doesn't pay attention to the current profit of Seven Little Blessings Film Company. It is too little for him.

Lin Baicheng asked Hong Jinbao and others to continue working hard to increase the annual profit of the Seven Little Fortunes Film Company to more than 10 million Hong Kong dollars. If the annual profit of the Seven Little Fortunes Film Company can exceed 10 million Hong Kong dollars for three consecutive years, he can help promote the Seven Little Fortunes Film Company. The company went public, making Hong Jinbao and others multi-millionaires.

Not to mention Hong Jinbao and others, even the Xu brothers, Mecca and others were very excited after hearing this. None of them wanted to become multi-millionaires.

After hearing this, Hong Jinbao naturally patted his chest and said that he would make good movies and make the company more money.

Lin Baicheng chatted with Hong Jinbao and others for a while, and then left. When he was about to go to Zhong Chuhong, Huang Xizhao found him with a man.

"Mr. Lin!"

"Who is this?"

"Mr. Lin, he is Chen Baisen, the editor-in-chief of "Film Fortnightly"."

"It's him!"

After listening to Huang Xizhao's introduction, Lin Baicheng suddenly understood and nodded to Chen Baisen.

"Movie Biweekly" was held at the beginning of this year. Lin Baicheng saw this weekly by chance and immediately asked Huang Xizhao to acquire the weekly and gave Huang Xizhao a task to test the editor-in-chief of "Movie Biweekly" If the ability is sufficient, let the editor-in-chief take charge of the task.

In later generations, when it comes to "Film Fortnightly", most people in China may not know about it, but when it comes to the Hong Kong Film Awards, then there must be a lot of people who know about it.

The Hong Kong Film Awards is actually an official awards ceremony organized by Film Fortnight in 1982 in cooperation with some filmmakers and Hong Kong TV stations. The purpose is to praise film workers with outstanding performance through selection and awards, and to review the performance of films in the past year, hoping to promote the prosperity of the Hong Kong film market, improve the level of film production and the audience's appreciation level.

To put it simply, like the American Oscars and the Bay Island Golden Horse Awards, it is a film festival held in Hong Kong.

Lin Baicheng, who wrote about entertainment in Hong Kong in the 1980s, is certainly no stranger to "Movie Fortnightly". Even seeing "Movie Fortnightly" reminded him that the Hong Kong Film Awards have not yet been held, and Hong Kong still lacks such a A film festival, so I came up with the idea.

The task Lin Baicheng gave Huang Xizhao was to organize a film festival. He had already chosen a name, called "Asian Golden Dragon Awards". That's right, this award is not limited to the Hong Kong market, as long as it is a film from Asia, it can participate.

"Hello, Mr. Lin."

Chen Baisen greeted Lin Baicheng respectfully.

Lin Baicheng looked at him and said, "As for the Asian Golden Dragon Awards, are you leading the preparations?"

Chen Baisen responded: "Yes, I am very grateful to President Huang for taking this seriously and entrusting me with this task."

"So, what are you going to do?"

Lin Baicheng nodded. He was not sure whether Chen Baisen could successfully run the film festival, but since Huang Xizhao let Chen Baisen take the lead, Chen Baisen had something that Huang Xizhao valued.

"After referring to the Oscars, Golden Horse, Cannes and other awards, I took the coexistence of business and art as the core, absorbed the advantages of those award ceremonies, and formulated the relevant rules of the "Asia Golden Dragon Awards."

What Chen Baisen said was actually what Lin Baicheng and Huang Xizhao said at the time. He asked Huang Xizhao to absorb the advantages of existing well-known film festivals, and at the same time stated that the "Asia Golden Dragon Awards" must coexist business and art, and the award-winning films cannot all be artistic films. I think Huang Xizhao told Chen Baisen all this.

"You should make a detailed report first and give it to Qin Lan when the time comes. I will take the time to read it."

Lin Baicheng said that he did not have time to listen to Chen Baisen's long report now, and at the same time, he would not spare time to listen to Chen Baisen's report because of this matter.

Before Chen Baisen said anything, Huang Xizhao said: "I will ask him to compile the report as soon as possible and then hand it over to Director Qin." The Director Qin he mentioned was actually Lin Baicheng's personal secretary Qin Lan.

Lin Baicheng established the secretariat. The position of secretary-general is still vacant, but Qin Lan is qualified to be the director of Xiangjiang.

By the way, after consideration, Bill Harveys decided to serve as the director of the American side of the Secretariat and continue to serve Lin Baicheng. After thinking about it, he realized that he was still young and there was no need to rush out. Doing relevant work for a few more years would help him accumulate contacts.

The positions of directors of the secretariats in Hong Kong and the United States have been decided, and Japan is no exception. Lin Baicheng is planning to let Nanako Chiba take up this position.

That's right, this appointment hasn't been announced yet. Lin Baicheng happens to be going to Tokyo tomorrow, and he plans to announce it then. In fact, Chiba Nanako and Sato Wataru have similar abilities, but the position of secretary sometimes requires Lin Baicheng to handle some private matters. For example, matters related to Yamaguchi Momoe and Matsuda Seiko sometimes have to be handled by the secretary, and Lin Baicheng is both Let Chiba Nanako handle it. Her female gender is more suitable for doing this.

To put it bluntly, Lin Baicheng did not stay in Tokyo often. What if Sato Wataru was appointed as the director of the Secretariat, and then Sato Wataru was in charge of his own affairs and put a hat on Lin Baicheng? Even if it was discovered and dealt with afterwards, it would still be unbearable for Lin Baicheng.

Don't think that this kind of thing can't happen. For example, Lin Baicheng used to let Isabella handle matters related to Demi Moore in the United States, but now they are all handled by Jill Kvis, a female secretary.

Lin Baicheng warned: "Well, this matter is not urgent, so the report should be more comprehensive and there should be no omissions."

Chen Baisen immediately said: "Don't worry, Mr. Lin, I will consider everything thoroughly and leave nothing out."

"That's good."

Lin Baicheng said and walked towards Zhong Chuhong. At this time, Zhong Chuhong was chatting with other female artists under Asia Television.

"What are you talking about?"

"Mr. Lin!"

The girls who were laughing and chatting at first calmed down when they saw Lin Baicheng coming.

"Brother Lin, we are talking about the salaries of TV actors."

Only Guan Zhilin held Lin Baicheng's arm happily.

Zhong Chuhong glanced away and looked away. She knew the close relationship between Lin Baicheng and Guan Zhilin, but in her opinion, Lin Baicheng and Guan Zhilin were just brother and sister. As for whether she has any doubts in her heart, only she knows.

Zhao Yazhi also glanced back and looked away. After all, she had an extraordinary relationship with Lin Baicheng, but there was no love between her and Lin Baicheng, so no matter what relationship Lin Baicheng had with other women, it had nothing to do with her.

"Remuneration? Why, do you think the current TV station remuneration is too low?"

Lin Baicheng looked at the female artists here. Some of them were not well-known today but he was deeply impressed by them, such as Chen Yulian and Wei Qiuhua. Chen Yulian had a relationship with Zhou Runfa before her rebirth, and her role as Little Dragon Girl left a deep impression on the audience; as for Wei Qiuhua, the middle-aged Huang Rong in Gu Tianle and Li Ruoxun's version of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" was played by Wei Qiuhua, presumably Many people know.

There are also several actresses who are already very famous today, such as Miao Kexiu, Bao Qijing, Mi Qiao, and Ruan Peizhen. Among them, Mi Qiao is the most popular now, and she was famous in the 21st century before her rebirth. She can be said to be popular. One of the longest-serving actors.

"That's not the case, Mr. Lin."

Mi Feng smiled and said: "It is precisely because you bought Asia Television that our artists can have the salary we have today. The salary before was less than half of what it is now. Now we are very satisfied with such a high salary."

"As long as you're satisfied."

Lin Baicheng smiled, and then said: "However, the TV station's remuneration will not continue to increase. As time goes by, the TV station will definitely increase the remuneration, so the income of your artists will only be higher in the future."

"Thank you very much, Mr. Lin."

Hearing what Lin Baicheng said, Mi Yan and others couldn't help but have sincere smiles on their faces. No matter who he is, he will not refuse a higher salary. Even if he enters this industry just to seek fame, he will not refuse the money that comes to his door.

What's more, among all the people present, no one is not short of money. They all become actors and actresses to make more money.

"I won't disturb you here. You can chat slowly."

Lin Baicheng said and walked away. He could see that because of his presence, they could not let go and chat.

At about nine o'clock, Lin Baicheng left, although the dinner was not over yet.

The next morning, Lin Baicheng took a private plane to Tokyo. When he came to Tokyo this time, Lin Baicheng did not just deal with official business, but came to visit Yamaguchi Momoe and Matsuda Seiko. The fertile land requires regular irrigation by the owner.

Before going to Tokyo, Lin Baicheng specially asked Sato Wataru and Chiba Nanako to pick him up at the airport. Together with Lin Baicheng's bodyguards who stayed in Tokyo, they drove an extended Lincoln to the airport to wait.

Momoe Yamaguchi had a special day off today, so the Lincoln drove to the secret villa that Lin Baicheng gave to Momoe Yamaguchi to live in. Yamaguchi Momoe is very popular now. The address of this villa has not been exposed. Yamaguchi Momoe does not live here every day, and sometimes she is cautious when coming here.

Lin Baicheng looked at the two people in the car: "Nanako, Sato, have you already set up the secretariat in Japan?"

"yes!"

They both responded together.

Lin Baicheng said: "I have already made a decision regarding the position of director of the Secretariat in Japan."

"yes!"

Sato Wataru and Chiba Nanako couldn't help but feel a little nervous. They wanted to know which of them would hold the post of director, or if there were other arrangements. But no matter what the situation is, what they are most concerned about is whether the director is themselves.

Lin Baicheng's eyes moved around the two of them, and finally fell on Chiba Nanako: "Nanako, you will be the director of the secretariat from now on. I hope you can do this job well and help me handle it. Work here and stuff.”

"Yes! Thank you, Chairman, for your affirmation! I will definitely do everything more seriously in the future!"

Nanako Chiba bent down to express her thanks with a happy face. The position of director was not only related to a higher salary in the short term, but also to a higher status and better development space in the long term.

Compared with Chiba Nanako, Sato Wataru's face was full of disappointment, and he also really wanted to serve as the director.

"Sato, you will be Nanako's subordinate from now on. You must assist her and do your job well."

Lin Baicheng looked at Sato Wataru and reminded him aloud that if Sato Wataru failed to do his job because he failed in the competition, he would not be lenient.

"Yes, Chairman!"

Sato Wataru suppressed the disappointment on his face and bowed in response. He did not want to lose this excellent job.

"Director Chiba, I'd like to thank you for taking care of me from now on!"

"Sato-san, let's work hard together from now on!"

Nanako Chiba bowed slightly and responded. From then on, the two of them had a superior-subordinate relationship, and the superior-subordinate relationship in Japanese corporate culture is extremely strict.

Lin Baicheng glanced at the two of them and said nothing more. Although Chiba Nanako was appointed as the director of the Secretariat in Japan, if Chiba Nanako does not do well in the future, he will replace Chiba Nanako. This position is not exclusive to Chiba Nanako.

Time passed slowly until the car arrived at the villa. Lin Baicheng got out of the car and walked into the villa. Chiba Nanako and Sato Wataru did not go in.

As soon as Lin Baicheng left, Chiba Nanako said to Sato Wataru: "Sato-san, I just stay here to serve the chairman. You contact Tanaka and the others and tell them that I will invite everyone to have a dinner together tonight."

"Yes, Director!"

Sato Wataru responded. Although the sudden change in status made him a little uncomfortable and felt a little uncomfortable, he knew that he had to adapt, otherwise he would definitely lose his excellent job.

Chiba Nanako nodded with satisfaction: "Well, follow me and work hard from now on."

After Chiba Nanako waved, Sato Wataru left.

Chiba Nanako stayed in the villa and did not leave, but she did not go inside to disturb the meeting between Lin Baicheng and Yamaguchi Momoe. She knew very well that she had to serve Chairman Lin Baicheng well, so even though Lin Baicheng probably wouldn't need her, she still stayed. She didn't want Lin Baicheng to find someone when he suddenly wanted to find her.

Chiba Nanako is right. Lin Baicheng will not need her in the near future, because he and Yamaguchi Momoe went to the master bedroom on the second floor of the villa. The two people who had not seen each other for a long time naturally wanted to measure each other's length. .
