Xi Renran was able to realize that Hong Kong was now a dangerous place for Zhang Guorong. This alone was enough to show that she had a very strong analytical ability.

If someone else looks at this issue, Zhang Guorong is a top star after all. She is not afraid of all kinds of scandals, and there is no need for her to stay away from Hong Kong to avoid scandals. Even Zhou Hao had never thought about it before, but if you think about it carefully based on Xi Renran's suggestion, you will find it makes a lot of sense.

No matter how developed and prosperous Hong Kong is, it is still a small place. Printing 100,000 leaflets is enough to cover the entire island. So once Liang Chengping's newspapers and magazines are in full swing, it will be useless for Zhang Guorong to hide in Hong Kong. But it will be different when she goes to the mainland. With Liang Chengping's limited distribution capabilities, he can't even cover Shenzhen, let alone the entire country. How can he compare with himself?

Furthermore, the entertainment media in mainland China are more ethical than those in Hong Kong. Some Hong Kong media have been persistent in smearing Zhang Guorong, but the entertainment media in mainland China are much friendlier to her. After all, the mainland has always praised "Farewell My Concubine" and has made Zhang Guorong very well-known in China. As for his sexual orientation, Zhou Hao thinks it is not a problem in mainland China. The mainland media has always been uninterested in sexual orientation. Not to mention pretending not to see it, this kind of thing is very private in itself. If there were no paparazzi digging deep, it should not be made public.

Even Zhou Hao was quite moved by Zhang Guorong's selfless support for Chen Qi today. In order to repay the favor, he had to find a way to get him to temporarily leave Hong Kong, this place of trouble. Anyway, he had a lot of free time now.

Having made up his mind, Zhou Hao felt somewhat grateful to Xi Renran. This Hong Kong media person, whom he had never met before, should also be a fan of Zhang Guorong, and they were both from mainland China, which made Zhou Hao feel very fond of her.

Because he had a good first impression of Xi Renran, Zhou Hao chatted with her for a few more minutes and asked about her situation.

Xi Renran is 19 years old this year. She is from Shanghai. She was admitted to the journalism major of the Chinese University of Hong Kong at the age of . After graduation, she stayed in Hong Kong to work. She first worked as an assistant in a TV station and only entered the entertainment media five years ago.

The "Weekly" where Xi Renran works now is one of the most famous print media in Hong Kong, and the most popular section of "Weekly" is the entertainment section, so her position as deputy editor-in-chief of the entertainment section is very valuable.

Zhou Hao also asked her why she knew so much about him. Xi Renran smiled and said, "People who work in entertainment news first need to have a strong ability to dig deep for clues, so it is not difficult to check the industry you are involved in."

Zhou Hao nodded and asked, "How do you think your future prospects are at the Weekly?"

Xi Renran stroked her hair and said with a smile, "I've reached the top. The next level up is the board of directors. If the company doesn't restructure, I can only get a salary increase, not a promotion."

Zhou Hao smiled and asked, "Have you ever thought about being an online media person?"

"Online media?" Xi Renran frowned and asked, "What does Mr. Zhou mean?"

Zhou Hao smiled and said, "Now all walks of life are going online, including the media. Traditional paper media and television media will also be impacted by the Internet. Television media is restricted by terminals, and paper media is restricted by distribution channels. In addition, Hong Kong is too small, so these restrictions are not yet visible. But in mainland China, such restrictions are very obvious. Apart from CCTV, only a few local satellite TV stations can get high ratings. There are very few newspapers that can be sold nationwide, not to mention magazines. The highlight of the media in the future should be the Internet."

Xi Renran pursed her lips and thought for a while before asking Zhou Hao: "How many Internet users are there in mainland China now?"

Zhou Hao said: "It is less than 100 million now, but APP can now push any consultation to more than 90% of mainland netizens."

Xi Renran was so shocked that she couldn't close her mouth: "PP has such a high market share?"

Zhou Hao nodded and smiled, confidently saying, "Let me tell you this, in mainland China, most netizens don't have their own computers, but they all have their own PP accounts."

Xi Renran sighed: "I agree with this point. The penetration rate of personal computers in mainland China is not high. In fact, even in Hong Kong, the penetration rate of personal computers is less than 30% of that of netizens."

Zhou Hao smiled and said, "The Internet is developing very fast. In the future, not only will the speed of the Internet increase significantly, but information will also become more diversified. Hardware will also continue to decline, and the share of personal computers will definitely continue to rise. Just imagine that in the future, there may be hundreds of millions of people in mainland China who read news through the Internet every day, and at least 20% of them will more or less read the entertainment section. I am afraid that no traditional media can compare to this channel. As a media person, besides the news source, isn't the channel what you care about most?"

Xi Renran was shocked when she heard this. The current population of Hong Kong is only more than 600 million, and including the immigrant population, there are at most more than million. This number is indeed not small for a city, but if it is regarded as a market, it is far from enough.

At present, the decline of Hong Kong's entertainment industry has become apparent. Hong Kong's film industry has been in recession for several years in a row, and Hong Kong's music industry has also been impacted by digital music and the Internet. There is more and more non-local music, and it is becoming more and more convenient. More and more young people no longer buy records, and the music industry has been greatly affected.

Times have changed, which has made the Hong Kong entertainment industry a little embarrassed. It seems that the public is no longer paying attention to the entertainment industry as much as before. Even those who work in entertainment news feel that the market is getting smaller and smaller and the future is worrying.

Zhou Hao suddenly described a huge market with tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of audiences, which made Xi Renran yearn for it. However, she did not understand the Internet and did not know if she had any chance to transition in the direction of the Internet.

At this time, Zhou Hao suddenly made an invitation, "Miss Xi, if you have had enough of Hong Kong, you can consider coming to Beijing. In the long run, the scenery in the mainland is better. Haobo Technology is preparing to build the world's largest Chinese portal website based on PP. Entertainment is a very important category under it. If you are interested, I can make a decision now and give you the position of editor-in-chief of the entertainment section, responsible for the entire entertainment section."

Although Xi Renran knew Haobo Technology and PP, she did not know that PP was going to build a portal website. This was PP's internal information.

I was just thinking that I couldn’t enter the Internet field, but I didn’t expect that a huge opportunity would hit me directly.

Xi Renran calmed down and looked at Zhou Hao intently: "Mr. Zhou, are you telling the truth?"

Zhou Hao said seriously, "The portal website has already started operating and will be launched soon. If you are interested, you can come to Beijing to join us at any time."

Then Zhou Hao reminded: "But you don't have much time to think about it."

Xi Renran immediately said: "Don't think about it, I'm willing to join!"

Zhou Hao looked at her in surprise: "You decided so quickly? Can you at least talk about the salary?"

Xi Renran said with a firm expression: "No need to talk, I am looking forward to joining Haobo Technology."

Zhou Hao smiled and stretched out his hand and said, "Welcome to join."

Xi Renran shook hands with Zhou Hao. She didn't know why she made this decision so suddenly, but when she thought about it carefully, it might be that she had been pursuing a career breakthrough for a long time, and Haobo Technology was obviously a good opportunity.

At this time, a staff member walked up to Zhou Hao and said, "Mr. Zhou, the party is almost over. President Jia has booked a dinner. In addition to you and Miss Chen, President Jia has also invited my brother and several other stars. If you are willing, please go with her."

Zhou Hao didn't hesitate, nodded gently and said, "Then I'll go down and wait for her first."

The staff nodded, thanked him and turned away. Zhou Hao then said to Xi Renran, "Miss Xi, please write down my phone number and contact me before you go to Beijing. I will have someone arrange for you to start work."

Xi Renran nodded hastily and said, "I may need a few more days to deal with the things on hand, and I will try to get to the capital within next week."

Zhou Hao smiled and said, "Ok, you decide the specific time yourself, but don't be too late."

"Ok."

The two exchanged cell phone numbers before Zhou Hao hurried downstairs. When he returned to his seat, Zhang Guorong took the initiative to say to him, "I heard from Xiaoqi that you will be returning to the mainland tomorrow?"

Zhou Hao nodded: "I'm quite busy recently, so I have to go back early."

Zhang Guorong said: "I want to take Xiaoqi to meet Cai Lin and some famous producers in the Hong Kong music scene."

Zhou Hao smiled and said, "That's a good thing, but I may not be able to stay with her..."

Mo Wenwei smiled and said, "I just told my brother that Xiaoqi can live with me during the few days she stays here."

Zhou Hao smiled and nodded, then turned to look at Chen Qi: "Xiao Qi, what do you mean?"

Chen Qi blinked her big watery eyes at Zhou Hao and said shyly, "Brother Zhou Hao, I can take care of myself."

Zhou Hao nodded immediately: "Okay, I'll call your sister tonight."
