Rebirth 1955 starts from the hunter

Seeing Zhou Jingyi and the others were lost in thought, Lin Dong thought for a moment and then said, "Ms. Zhou, I really have no interest in cooperating on a certain program, so please don't mention it again."

"Boss Lin, what if we open a channel? Are you interested?"

"Can it be bought out? For example, if we open TVB Channel 2, can we just buy it out? No matter what program I broadcast, as long as it does not involve politics, no one can interfere."

"Also, TVB's main equipment is obviously a bit outdated. Donglin International will repurchase the most advanced ones. Is TVB willing to share the cost?"

"Ms. Zhou, I understand your attitude towards work, but I am a person who is afraid of trouble."

"I like to make decisions on my own and don't want to consult with others about everything. This will greatly affect my work efficiency."

Seeing that Zhou Jingyi was still trying to persuade him, Lin Dong waved his hand impatiently and said, "Given the financial situation of Donglin International, re-creating a brand new TV station is not worth mentioning at all."

Lin Dong is not bragging. With the profits from various factories and more and more ways to launder money, Donglin International has reserves of up to 22 billion US dollars in major banks.

Lin Dong is now undoubtedly the richest man in Hong Kong, and he is probably among the top 100 in the world.

In 1960, the recognized richest man in the world was Davis Rockefeller of the United States, with total assets of 1530 billion US dollars and controlling % of the oil market in the United States.

Money left in the bank is just a number. What Lin Dong needs to do is to spend it and turn it into real industry to enhance the Lin family's foundation.

As soon as Lin Dong uttered these domineering words, everyone present fell silent.

Luo Feier gently hit Lin Dong's arm, revealing an expression that was both angry and somewhat proud.

"Mr. Guo, Mr. Guo?" Lin Dong called out twice before Guo Jinhui came back to his senses.

"Mr. Lin, do you have anything to tell me?" - Guo Jinhui clasped his hands together, nodded and bowed, and his deliberately flattering look made the atmosphere much more harmonious.

"The last cooperation with the Guo family was a happy one for everyone. I wonder if the Guo family is willing to take over the equipment for building a TV station."

Zhou Jingyi became anxious when she saw that Lin Dong was determined to set up a new TV station on his own. She didn't want to lose the opportunity to cooperate with this God of Wealth.

Without waiting for Guo Jinhui to reply, he said directly, "Boss Lin, can you wait a moment? I'll make a phone call."

Lin Dong nodded and watched Zhou Jingyi leave the tea room, followed closely by He Ershao.

Ten minutes later, Zhou Jingyi came back and said, "TVB can be sold, but there is only one requirement: keep the Pearl Channel and Donglin International must not interfere. Ms. Dona will meet with you for other details."

Lin Dong was stunned, and so were the other people in the room. They agreed so easily?

As if he saw through Lin Dong's doubts, "They just need a window for publicity. If you are willing to take over, they will naturally be more than happy to do so."

The next day, Lin Dong met with the station director Dona. Now that they had a general direction, the discussion went relatively smoothly.

Lin Dong’s request is complete control, including ownership of the current TVB office building.

Fortunately, in the eyes of Westerners, as long as you are willing to pay, everything can be negotiated, not to mention buildings, even titles are fine.

Of course, Lin Dong had no interest in the title of the Eagle Countryman. Dona mentioned it several times, but Lin Dong changed the subject.

A week later, the contract was officially signed, and TVB belonged to Lam Tung from then on.

"TVB" is the English abbreviation of "Television Broadcasts Limited".

If there was no Lin Dong, the entertainment program would have been officially launched in 1967 after the Li, Qi and Shao families took over.

Since it was the first television station in Hong Kong to obtain a wireless television license, it is generally called "Wireless Television Station" or "Wireless" or "Three Color Channel". It is also the world's largest Chinese-language commercial television station.

Providing free and diversified television entertainment to 24 million households in Hong Kong 237 hours a day.

TVB started as free television in Hong Kong and has since expanded its business to all parts of the world.

Its main businesses include television broadcasting services, program production and program distribution, digital media business and book and magazine publishing business. It is one of the largest Chinese commercial media in the world.

Now? He belongs to Donglin International. With a TV station, the next step is to update the equipment and produce TV series.

Lin Dong checked carefully and found that Mr. Jin had completed six martial arts novels, namely The Book and the Sword, The Sword Stained with Royal Blood, The Legend of the Condor Heroes, The Return of the Condor Heroes, The Snow Mountain Flying Fox and The Legend of the Condor Heroes.

The novels currently being serialized in newspapers include The Heaven Sword and Dragon Sabre and White Horse Roars in the West Wind.

From 1955 to 61, Mr. Jin wrote eight books in six years. It can only be said that he was very productive.

Martial arts films need to be filmed, romance films need to be filmed, and comedies need to be filmed. Lin Dong suddenly thought of Chow Yun-fat's The Bund, which also needs to be filmed.

"Xiao Min, please contact the legal team of Donglin International and ask them to find Mr. Jin to buy the film and television adaptation rights of these books." - Lin Dong handed a piece of paper to Qi Min as he spoke.

Mr. Jin is only 37 years old now. Lin Dong almost said something wrong and made a fool of himself.

"Master, the film and television rights? Do you want to use the stories in the book to make a TV series or a movie? Do you still need to buy this?"

"Of course we have to buy it. Tell them that Mr. Jin will set the price. There is only one condition: we must buy it out."

Lin Dong knew that when The Legend of the Condor Heroes was first filmed, not only was no copyright fee paid to Mr. Jin, but Mr. Jin gave the crew 100,000 yuan with only one condition: do not make any changes to the original content.

Thinking of this, Lin Dong said another sentence. "Tell them to tell Mr. Jin that I said it myself and I will definitely respect the original work and won't make any major changes."

"Master, if Mr. Jin wants one million for each book, will you give it to him?"

Qi Min has lived in Hong Kong for several years. She is very fond of the serialized novels in newspapers and naturally knows some of the situation. This time, she did not do as she did before and just do nothing.

"Don't even mention one million, I'll give him 10 million. As long as he dares to ask for it, I'll give it to him."

Lin Dong said this with finality. As for whether Mr. Jin would really take 10 million, it all depends on his courage.

In this era when the average income per capita is 300 Hong Kong dollars, I'm afraid Mr. Zhou wouldn't even dare to think about it.

As for whether he would not sell it, Lin Dong believed that for the sake of Ming Pao, Mr. Jin would agree.

"Tell the legal department that this matter needs to be discussed privately. The fewer people who know about it, the better."

"One more thing. Check out all the directors who have shot movies in Hong Kong and make a list for me."

"Also, notify Da Hu and Nan Xiong who are in charge of overseas affairs, TV series directors, film directors, editors, lighting, action directors, etc. We need as many talents as we can find in terms of film and television."

Since he was going to do it, Lin Dong was prepared to do it on a large scale. If he didn't start more than a dozen crews at once, he would be letting down the cheats God had given him.
