Reborn Tycoon Rise

Chapter 243 Wireless Board of Directors

Xu Zhi continued: "I intend to integrate the entire theater chain in Xiangjiang. From now on, all screenings will be based on rules. The rules will control the number of screens for a movie. If the effect is good and the number of moviegoers is high, it will gain more audiences." Movie screens, otherwise they will be taken off the shelves immediately. At the same time, new companies in the theater chain will also actively expand overseas channels, or directly purchase overseas theater chains to provide higher income for high-quality films. I believe that under this cycle, more new companies will be born. With more and better quality movies, the new theater chain companies will naturally be able to gain higher profits."

Shao Yifu frowned and said, "Xu Sheng, what you are doing is going to break all the balance!"

"If the balance is not broken, where will the profits come from? Shaw Brothers also has a large number of theaters in Nanyang. In the future, if the movies in Xiangjiang are booming, they will naturally make more money." Xu Zhi said with a smile.

Shao Yifu was known as one of the top ten richest men in Hong Kong in the 1970s and was also knighted. He did not just rely on the film company in Hong Kong. Long before coming to Hong Kong, the Shao family had already made waves in Nanyang. In Xiangjiang, Jiahe's Movies can only be sold outside of China, but Shao Yifu doesn't have to. The movies he makes are all self-produced and sold. Nanyang also has its own theater chain, so even if the quality is poor, he can still make money.

Shao Yifu said: "But this method also requires convincing Zou Wenhuai."

"Zou Wenhuai will let me take charge of the negotiations. Besides, if you and I work together, it won't be a big deal even if he is missing!" Xu Zhi shrugged and said indifferently.

Shao Yifu thought for a while and said, "Then if I agree, can Xu Sheng sell my wireless shares?"

Xu Zhi shook his head and said: "The shares of Wireless Wireless previously held by Jardine Matheson are already in my hands. I can sell some shares to you, but Hutchison Whampoa will still be the major shareholder and have veto power."

Shao Yifu frowned and said, "Xu Sheng, isn't this unfair?"

"Fair? What is fairness?" Xu Zhi said with a smile: "Shaosheng controls the theater chain. When investing in movies, does he consider whether it is fair for the people below? This deal is very simple. The theater chain exchanges for my support, but Wireless Hutchison Whampoa will not give up the controlling stake, not to mention I don’t want your theater chain for nothing, all prices are fair.”

Shao Yifu thought for a while and said: "This matter involves too much, I have to think it over carefully, but things are urgent on the wireless side now, can we solve the wireless problem first?"

"Okay, when is the next board meeting of TVB?" Xu Zhi nodded and agreed. The controlling rights of TVB are in his own hands, and Shao Yifu can't make any splash.

"Two days later at 9.30 am." Shao Yifu replied.

Xu Zhi nodded and smiled: "Okay, I will participate in person when the time comes!"

After having breakfast at home, Xu Zhi took the Mercedes-Benz motorcade and drove directly to the TVB station.

The headquarter of TVB is located in Tseung Kwan O Television City, which is the largest film and television city in Hong Kong. The five free channels operated by the company are all broadcasted here. It is also the filming site of "Happy Tonight", the most popular program in Hong Kong, and the production site of several great kings in later generations. The "Star Factory" artist training classes are all here.

There is a sense of depression in the TVB headquarters today, and everyone is in a heavy mood. Anyone with some channels in the TV station knows that today's board meeting will be a critical moment that determines the future of the entire company.

The interior of the conference room seemed a bit noisy. Li Lu Yanqun was sitting next to the chief seat, frowning as he watched his two sons talking animatedly, not caring about the current environment. Even if the board of directors had not yet convened, this was not a place where they could talk and laugh loudly. !

"uh-huh……"

Shao Yifu walked in and gave a half-cough. Many people stopped talking immediately after seeing it. Only the two sons of the Li family. Although their voices were a little quieter, there was no other sound in the conference room at this moment. is more obvious.

"Shut up!" Li Lu Yanqun shouted with eyes wide open.

Faced with their mother's scolding, the two stopped.

Shao Yifu was obviously used to this situation. He smiled and said to everyone: "Everyone, let me introduce you. This is Mr. Xu, the chairman of Evergrande Group. I think everyone should have heard of his name, Hutchison Whampoa." He is the major shareholder of our wireless company, and Mr. Xu’s participation in the board of directors represents Hutchison Whampoa.”

When everyone heard this, they were all stunned, and soon started talking again.

"Good morning, everyone." Xu Zhi didn't say anything more, but he also understood the curiosity of these people. Although in the first year of starting his business, Xu Zhi's photos were exposed to the media several times, but when Midea When the company expanded, Xu Zhi contacted a special company.

This company's business is very special. It can greatly reduce the exposure of business tycoons in newspapers. Therefore, even after the battle for Hutchison Whampoa broke out, although Xu Zhi's name was reported by various media, there was not a single photo. , including the interviews he gave when he first acquired Hutchison Whampoa, there were only written narratives and no photos. Even newspapers with photos of Xu Zhi a few years ago were slowly being recycled and destroyed.

Therefore, in Xiangjiang, many people have heard of Xu Zhi’s name but don’t know his appearance. In the non-Internet era, the media can still be controlled by capital to a certain extent.

Of course, if you really look for something that is slightly relevant, you can find it, but it is enough to block most people. Otherwise, you will be harassed by a bunch of people wherever you go, which is also very annoying.

Shao Yifu sat down in the chief seat, and Xu Zhi also sat next to him, opposite Li Lu Yanqun.

At the beginning of the meeting, Shao Yifu said solemnly: "Everyone, we are all very sad for Mr. Li's sudden death, but Mr. Li was the chairman of the board of directors of our TVB before his death, and a snake cannot survive without a head, so this meeting is held today. Discuss this."

"Is this still necessary to discuss? Of course my mother will take over this position!" One of the sons of the Li family said directly.

"That's enough, don't talk!" Li Lu Yanqun shouted angrily, and then said to Shao Yifu: "Shao Sheng, you have been taking care of wireless for so many years, and it is getting better and better now, so I am the chairman of the board. I think it’s better for you to do it, but I also have a request.”

Shao Yifu asked: "What's the request?"

Li Luyanqun said: "My two sons are also very interested in the media, so I hope to arrange for them to join the board of directors so that they can make suggestions for the development of Wireless in the future."

"This..." Shao Yifu was very hesitant. This was what he was most worried about.

"I don't agree!" Xu Zhi vetoed it directly. This was an agreement between him and Shao Yifu. If there is any decision that makes Shao Yifu difficult, Xu Zhi will be the villain. After all, Shao Yifu and Li Xiaohe have been friends for decades. Friends After death, the orphan wife made a request that was difficult to refuse.

Li Lu Yanqun frowned and said, "Xu Sheng, why not?"

"There is no reason. According to the laws of Hong Kong, people or institutions holding more than 16% of the shares can ignore the director's resolution and join the board of directors. As far as I know, Lijia should only have 10% of the shares!" Xu Zhi said calmly: "Hutchison I am the largest shareholder of Wireless, holding 28.3% of the shares of Wireless, and I also own 13% of the shares of Jardine Matheson Group. I think you should understand what I mean!"

Li Lu Yanqun glanced at Shao Yifu. It was obvious that he already knew about this, so he said, "It's just two positions. Does Xu Sheng really want to be so accomplished?"

"With the wealth of Eli's family, why should he care about these two positions?" Xu Zhi asked in turn.

In fact, it would be fine if these two people just joined the company to hang out and become celebrities, but the key lies in the future. These two relied on their identities to maliciously interfere in the company's operations with the intention of fighting for power, which brought Shao Yifu a lot of trouble. Endless trouble.

Although Xu Zhi has controlled the board of directors in this life, the identities of these two people are still very sensitive. The founder's sons, especially the relationship between Shao Yifu and Li Xiaohe, really let them join the company. Although it is not endless trouble, it is It will also have a lot of impact on a lot of people.
