Reborn Tech Maniac

Chapter 673 A Typhoon with a Strange Path

"Hello, Mr. Tang." The two girls introduced themselves awkwardly, "I am my older sister, and my name is Huo Baozhu." "I am my younger sister, and my name is Huo Baoling."

Tang Huan turned his head. There was no impression in the database, and his face was not familiar. He couldn't help but lose interest, but he nodded gently.

"Baozhu is now a child star, and her stage name is Huo Wenxi." Yang Shoucheng added, and then boldly asked: "I brought them here today to see the scene, and I also want to get Olympic aid from Tang Sheng, so that the star The journey will be smoother.”

Ye Zhiming, who was sitting on the side, murmured in his heart, "This method is really unconvincing. Otherwise, how could they turn around so quickly!"

Originally, Ye Zhiming didn't want to introduce Yang Shoucheng to Tang Huan so quickly. After all, he had not yet reached a clear level in front of the richest man. It was too abrupt to make such a fuss.

But Yang Shoucheng's earnest request couldn't stand it, and he owed the other party a big favor in terms of funds, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and take advantage of this opportunity to discuss the VCD business to bring private goods.

However, before entering the banquet, Yang Shoucheng pulled out two more sisters, and Ye Zhiming couldn't help beating his heart even more—the other party is too bold. When you meet for the first time, you should not seek meritorious deeds, but seek nothing but prudence. first.

Now seeing Yang Shoucheng trouble Mr. Richest with the so-called stardom of the little girl, I have to say that besides daring to think and act, his black belly is also amazing.

At this time, Ye Zhiming didn't ask for anything else, so let's pass this article without incident, and he still has business-waiting to get the VCD business to turn around.

"Huo Wenxi..." Tang Huan frowned, and casually ordered to the personal assistant sitting on the sofa by the door: "Remember to help these two little sisters and say hello to DreamWorks."

Seeing this scene, Ye Zhiming secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly turned the topic to the real thing, "Comparing people, you must die, and comparing goods, you must throw them away. The nightclub here in Lan Kwai Fong used to use laser discs from the Japanese Pioneer Company. Karaoke system, many people praised how advanced its technology was at the time, but when Stormwind City showed a digital karaoke system, it let everyone know what a good thing should look like."

Tang Huan laughed, "Pioneer's position in the field of consumer electronics is still quite stable, but it's just a bit conservative in terms of technology."

包括RCA、先锋公司在内的一大批消费电子公司，都在产品研发方向上执着于模拟实现的各种方式，最后RCA亏了好几亿美元，导致被通用电气收购并被拆解，先锋公司则在激光影碟的道路上进展顺利——1979年2月推出工业用激光影碟播放器；1980年6月于美国推出家用激光影碟播放器VP-1000；1981年10月于日本推出家用激光影碟播放器；1982年10月推出商用LD卡拉OK系统。

However, although laser discs have gained a first-mover advantage over VCDs, they still cannot shake the position established by video tapes over the years in the North American market, and have not really become popular. Fortunately, the markets in Japan, Baodao, and Xiangjiang are very enthusiastic about it. , is mainly used for karaoke and movie distribution.

It can be said that VCD must first kill laser discs before talking about how to replace video tapes.

"Tang Sheng's VCD will definitely dominate the home theater, nightclub entertainment and other markets, just like Xiangjiang Cinema Group controls most of Xiangjiang's film release channels, and it will be worldwide. We small people are just waiting for Tang Sheng Enjoy the meal." Yang Shoucheng followed suit.

"One fence with three stakes, one hero with three gangs. I very much welcome qualified business partners to join the cooperation camp." Tang Huan directly expressed his attitude, "Judging from the proposal submitted by Lao Ye just now, it suits me very well. In the next session, you will explain your plan to Sir Shao, Boss Zou, Boss Lei and other bigwigs at the Heung Kong Cinemas Group meeting, and strive to win the VCD film distribution rights of major film studios. "

"With Tang Sheng in charge, I will definitely be able to return home with a lot of rewards." Ye Zhiming, who was overjoyed, said confidently.

"Don't take this session as a simple cutscene. I still respect the opinions of partners. After all, only when everyone has unified ideas and steps can we exert the greatest synergy." Tang Huan pointed out.

Ye Zhiming nodded again and again, "I will prepare seriously."

Tang Huan put down his glass, turned around and called the manager who was waiting at the door at any time, "Take these two Miss Huo and go to my wine cellar to pick up two bottles of red wine and come back."

Everyone was a shrewd person with clear minds, and they immediately understood that Tang Huan wanted to distract the rest of the crowd and talk about some private matters. The two sisters, Huo Wenqian and Huo Baoling, immediately stood up obediently.

Yang Shoucheng secretly said, "I'm still a little impatient, so that I didn't think about it. Although these two little girls who came to make fun of you may not understand what is important, but we still have to avoid suspicion."

Just as he was about to open his mouth to invite Ying, he took the two sisters to pick out red wine. Unexpectedly, Ye Zhiming stepped forward and said: "I have done some research on red wine, and I just want to visit Tang Sheng's wine cellar."

"Since Lao Ye is interested, let's go and have a look around. If you have any red wine that suits your taste, just say so. I'll give it to you." Tang Huan nodded slightly.

Hearing this, Yang Shoucheng sat down on his buttocks again. It seemed that the richest man wanted to talk about private matters with him; Ye Zhiming, who stood up, felt sour in his heart, because he just said it casually just now. It was really turned on like this.Yang Shoucheng's importance in Tang Huan's eyes must have increased a little too quickly!Could it be that the pair of twins who were given away really hit people's tastes, and then they were favored so quickly?

After Yang Shoucheng and himself were the only ones on the table who were listening carefully, Tang Huan said slowly, "I heard that Lao Yang and HSBC had some unpleasant quarrels because of the disposal of assets?"

The shrewd Yang Shoucheng, from Tang Huan's words, faintly heard something unusual, so he explained truthfully: "You can't blame me for not being able to lose. When the property market crashed a few years ago, I suffered a lot. , HSBC chose not to trust me anymore and confiscated all my assets. At that time, I had a watch, a set of clothes, and a pair of glasses, and I no longer had anything that belonged to me. Even so, they still humiliated me in every possible way, even my wallet They are all searched."

"Tang Sheng can understand how important face is when you come out to play. For a long time, I have been a laughing stock in the eyes of others, and even now I am often ridiculed by others."

Speaking of this, Yang Shoucheng showed a wry smile on his face, "But I can't afford to offend Xiangjiang King like HSBC, so I can only hold back my anger."

"HSBC does seem to be indestructible, after all, it has won a lot of wealthy people in Xiangjiang." Tang Huan said leisurely: "The threshold of the upper class in Xiangjiang is getting higher and higher. The so-called grassroots individuals in the past The legend of striving to become the richest man in the city can only be appreciated in film and television works. All in all, the capacity of Xiangjiang, a small place, is obviously limited in all aspects. If the older generation of dignitaries do not step down and make room, it will be difficult for newcomers to rise to the top. "

Yang Shoucheng nodded approvingly, "That's true. The economic situation has been ups and downs in recent years, and many industries, such as supermarkets, have gradually been monopolized by a few large companies. This is a pattern in which interests have been divided. Unless there is a major negative impact on the overall situation, or one of the princes falls apart, its remains provide nutrients for the growth of newcomers, and at the same time make room for newcomers."

"You don't need to beat the drum with a heavy hammer. Talking to a smart person like Lao Yang saves energy." Tang Huan laughed, and then asked: "Have you ever thought that HSBC will make room for newcomers and provide growth nutrients?" Where's the good guy?"

"I didn't dare to think so." Yang Shoucheng swallowed hard, and then said resolutely: "Perhaps Tang Sheng can do it. If possible, I am willing to be a loyal and brave hound of Tang Sheng to help You harvest all kinds of prey."

Seeing that the other party expressed his loyalty so politely, Tang Huan reciprocated and said: "If you need it, I can help you introduce a friendly bank to redeem the confiscated properties from HSBC as soon as possible."

In Tang Huan's view, Yang Shoucheng is still quite valuable. Although he has lost the trust of HSBC, the country he once built has proved his ability; more importantly, although Yang Shoucheng has left the market at this time, It's a start, but it's not enough to let the outside world instinctively produce the first impression of a person on the road, and it's very suitable for performing some "glove" tasks.After all, in this world of fighting for the lower limit, some shady things inevitably exist and have to be done.

"Then Lao Tangsheng will have to worry about it." Yang Shoucheng accepted the olive branch Tang Huan handed over without hesitation, and then eagerly asked the richest man what kind of nomination certificate he needed to hand in.

"Don't be busy, you can take the property back first, and then we can reorganize it." Tang Huan smiled slightly, "During this period, I will ask someone to provide you with a secret information, so that you can understand HSBC from a new perspective."

This is considered to be the confidant of the richest man all of a sudden, right?Secretly feeling that although he is still in the investigation period, Yang Shoucheng's speed is too fast. He can't help but wonder if the pair of sisters he sent greatly won Tang Huan's favor?

After a while, Ye Zhiming came back with Huo Wenxi and Huo Baoling smilingly holding the red wine he had chosen, and then the sisters went to play karaoke obediently.

"These two little girls are quite sensible." Ye Zhiming, who had done a lot of work in the process of selecting red wine and got to know him privately, praised him sincerely.

"Naturally, they have six other biological siblings, who are 20 years younger than their eldest sister. They are much smarter than their peers." Yang Shoucheng continued the conversation and introduced the twin sisters.

After talking about business for a while, Tang Huan began to patrol around Stormwind City.

Walking to the competition area, watching the audience fascinated by the wonderful fights on the stage, Yang Shoucheng, who is quite good at the sensual dog horse, said in admiration: "This event organized by Stormwind City has become the most popular event in Southeast Asia. The fighting activities have attracted many good fighters from the Philippines, Thailand, Japan, South Korea, the mainland, and even the United States and Canada.”

Tang Huan nodded slightly, "It is indeed quite lively, but there is still a considerable distance from the grand occasion of the American boxing match."

Yang Shoucheng and Ye Zhiming looked at each other, and said suddenly, "It turns out that Tang Sheng's goal is so high!"

There are so many interesting things in Stormwind City, it can be called the crown of Xiangjiang.To some extent, pleasure is also a kind of Xiangjiang spirit, and has developed into the cultural characteristics of this rapidly rising famous oriental metropolis. The eccentricity in Stormwind City fits this point very well.

I don't know if it's because they were too relaxed and having fun after the business was finalized. Ye Zhiming and Yang Shoucheng drank a little too much. , Baoling and the others have gone home, so there is only Lao Tangsheng."

The meaning contained in this is very obvious, but Tang Huan is not so beastly. After laughing and scolding, "Stop learning those messy things in Little Japan", he ordered his subordinates: "Arrange a car and take the two Miss Huo home. "

After leaving Stormwind City, you can see that the door thoughtfully reminded the guests to pay attention to the sudden change of the weather. The weather became visibly choppy and restless.

"It is said that the Hong Kong Observatory may hoist the northeast gale or storm signal No. [-] tomorrow." The assistant reminded: "Typhoon Wayne's life span will last more than half a month, and our next trip to Baodao may be affected by the weather." Impact."

The precise meaning of the gale or storm signal No. 63 is: the area near the sea level of the Xiangjiang River is currently or expected to be generally hit by strong winds or storms from the direction indicated by the signal, with a sustained wind force of 117 to 180 kilometers per hour, and gusts may exceed [-] kilometers per hour [-] kilometers, and the wind may continue.

To put it bluntly: Xiangjiang will be greatly affected-ferries and helicopters will be suspended; trams, cable cars and most bus routes will be suspended; MTR will only provide limited services; airport flights may also be delayed and canceled; theme parks will be suspended Open; offices closed; schools closed; banks closed; stock markets closed...

In short, just don't do anything, close the doors and windows, stay at home honestly, and wait for God to finish tossing.

In fact, in comparison, the impact on Xiangjiang was light. The island side was severely affected by Typhoon Wayne. Its strange moving path made the Joint Typhoon Warning Center in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, use different auxiliary calculation methods. Meteorological agencies such as the Japan Meteorological Agency, the Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration, and the Central Weather Bureau of Formosa Island are struggling, and there are even some differences. The central area of ​​Formosa Island has suffered the worst disaster since the August 1959th flood in [-]. The most severe disaster.
