Countercurrent 1978 starts with the production team

When Chu Jianghe arrived at the airport, he saw Nalan Qing still looking resolute and resolute at the pick-up gate, with only a young assistant by her side.

Chu Jianghe took the luggage from Nalan Qing and joked: "After all, he is an executive with an annual salary of millions. Your appearance is a bit too shabby. I wonder if you think I am harsh on my employees."

"You are a conscientious boss and you know how to care about your employees. I have been running around here and there for more than half a year and almost lived on a plane." Although Na Lanqing admired Chu Jianghe, she didn't get along well with this young boss. He was restrained, rolled his eyes at him and continued: "What's the use of having more people? There are some things they can't handle, so I don't need to step in."

Nalan Qing is not complaining for nothing. In the past six months, Nalan Qing has been either in North America or Europe. Often after talking about things in North America today, she has to fly back to Europe in the evening. This kind of intercontinental flight spans the time difference. Very hard.

Fortunately, she is still young and can withstand this hard work.

Under Chu Jianghe's instruction, Nalanqing has slowly established her own team in North America and Europe, which has relieved a lot of pressure on her.

In the past six months of working for Chu Jianghe, I also feel that my horizons have been opened, I have grown a lot, and my work style has become more and more mature.

When Chu Jianghe heard her complaint, he laughed dryly and said, "Thank you, thank you. I'll give you a banquet tonight to wash away the dust."

How could Chu Jianghe not know about Nalan Qing's hard work? He was very lucky that he personally recruited this talent with a high salary. Needless to say, she had a good relationship with Hong Kong Island. She was born in Cambridge, and when she started working in a place like the UK, it was It's like a fish in water.

Chu Jianghe saw the results of Nalan Qing's work over the past six months and was impressed by this lady who came from a well-known family.

Chu Jianghe admired her very much for working so hard even though her resources were not bad.

"Thank you very much, boss." Nalan Qing pretended to be touched, but her expression was fake.

"You don't have to be polite with me." Chu Jianghe waved his hands, and then asked about the business with a straight face: "By the way, did things go well this time?"

Two days before Nalanqing came back, she talked to herself on the phone, saying that things were not going well this time and that she should be mentally prepared.

But this link is very crucial to him, and Chu Jianghe is still very concerned about success.

Nalan Qing wanted to give it away at first, but when she saw Chu Jianghe's serious look, she stopped trying to joke around. A trace of pride flashed in her eyes and she said, "It didn't go well at the beginning. The other party never let go, but in the end, Finally, I am lucky enough to live up to my fate.”

"Really?" Chu Jianghe looked relieved and beamed with joy. This was really good news for him.

"Of course it's true. I even brought the contract. It needs your signature, boss." Nalan Qing patted the briefcase she carried with her and said, "When we first came into contact, Li's voice really didn't want to sell this business. , but it seems that they have had some problems with their investment recently, so I raised another 10% on top of the original quotation, and the other party finally agreed."

"Well done!" Chu Jianghe praised sincerely.

Nalan Qing also showed a hint of pride on her face. She was very proud of being able to broker this deal. It was not easy to negotiate this deal.

The two of them were talking about the acquisition of Li's TV station. Li's Voice was the parent company of Li's TV station in the UK.

In 1978, after Jiayi TV went bankrupt due to poor management, Li's TV and TVB became the only two free-to-air TV stations in Hong Kong Island.

The market shares of Li's TV and TVB in Hong Kong Island are about 35% and 65%. Compared with TVB, there is still a long way to go.

There is no need to think about TVB. As the hen that lays golden eggs in Mr. Shao’s hands, it is impossible for him to sell it. Even in later generations, TVB is still firmly in the hands of the Shao family. Chu Jianghe has never attacked TVB from the beginning. idea.

After some thought, Chu Jianghe decided on Li's TV station.

My impression is that in the early 80s, due to poor investment, Li's Voice began to shrink its business and transferred its shares to an Australian consortium. Later, Qiu Degen of Far East Development took over the control of Li's TV Station from the Australian consortium. Then Li's TV station was changed to Asia Television, which was also known as ATV in later generations.

In fact, the performance of Li's TV Station in recent years is still good. It is full of talents. Under the suppression of TVB, it has also bloomed its own light, and occasionally it can steal TVB's limelight.

If it weren't for the frequent changes in shareholdings, which caused people to become distracted, they might not be able to compete with TVB.

Of course, being able to control a TV station is of great significance to Chu Jianghe. The media will always be a very important force for a long time to come.

This was because he felt that he had no foundation in Hong Kong Island, so he took action.

The successful acquisition of Li's TV station also means that Chu Jianghe has officially made his debut on Hong Kong Island and is no longer the dispensable little Kalami in the eyes of some people.

Although he had money in the past, his words had no weight. With the addition of the TV station, the weight of his words is different. This is the difference between controlling resources and not controlling resources.

All of this must be attributed to Nalan Qing. If he had come forward, Li's voice might not be heeded by him.

People like Na Lanqing, who was born in Cambridge, are regarded as one of their own in the UK and have alumni resources to use. Talking with Li's voice will naturally get twice the result with half the effort.

With the TV station in hand, Chu Jianghe became more confident in his plan to deal with Jia Ning.

Chu Jianghe was very happy to be able to take over Li's TV station. Even if the plan to deal with Jia Ning went bankrupt in the end, the impact on him would not be that big.

When a group of people came to the car, Chu Jianghe saw the original copy of the contract. He got 2000% of the shares for 70 million Hong Kong dollars. Even if it was 2000 million more than previously expected, it was still a value-for-money deal.

Chu Jianghe happily signed his name on the contract, and then handed the contract to Nalan Qing. He didn't need to worry about the rest, just leave it to professionals.

Nalan Qing solemnly took the contract and put it in her briefcase.

"Boss, do you have any ideas about the candidate for the chairman of the board of directors? Should you serve as the chairman yourself, or should you choose someone else?"

"Choose someone else." Chu Jianghe said without thinking. He didn't have time to deal with specific things. It was so tiring. He could only control the general direction.

"This deal will be completed soon. If you choose someone, you should do it as soon as possible." Nalan Qing reminded.

Speaking of this, Chu Jianghe also had a headache. He still had too few people on hand at the moment, so he only had two professionals, Na Lanqing and Zhang Wenqi, to make the most of it.

Zhang Li was busy with entrepot trade, Ma Liang was running a tape factory in Shenzhen, and Zheng Yueyue was also in charge of the clothing business. Chu Jianghe thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't think of anyone who could be used.
