Rebirth of the Tech Madman

Chapter 537 Resentment on the Rich Game Field

1983 was the fifth year of Zhong Chuhong's debut. , this year, she was very tired, and she took on six films just for the main roles.

The Xiangjiang film industry produces hundreds of films every year, and not every film is eligible to enter the serious 800 theaters, and even if it can be released, the box office may not be satisfactory.

But among the films that Zhong Chuhong participated in, the sci-fi comedy Interstellar Blunt had a lower box office, but it also exceeded 6 million, which is at the upper-middle level; as for the summer release Five Lucky Stars, the box office It has reached more than 20 million.

Although the final box office results of God of Gamblers have not yet come out, judging from the current state of overwhelmingly suppressing Golden Harvest's Project A, DreamWorks Cinemas has no reason not to squeeze its commercial value to more than 30 million.

It can be said that the 23-year-old Zhong Chuhong, as his name suggests, is really popular, and he became popular purely by relying on the form of movies, which can be regarded as the most typical achievement of DreamWorks' promotion of artist packaging.

Since the crew of God of Gamblers will go to Melbourne, Australia for promotion during Christmas, Zhong Chuhong is packing his belongings and packing them into suitcases.

Ah Hong, be careful when you are away from home. There are often male bosses with bad intentions who take advantage of business trips to conspire against female subordinates. Mother Zhong, who deliberately put down her clothing store business and came back to help, repeatedly urged her worriedly. with.

You think too much, our company is so big, it's formal. Zhong Chuhong shook his head with a smile.

That's right. Ms. Zhong Chuhong is now the most popular actress in DreamWorks. Except for the big boss, who dares to hide the rules. Zhong said.

What are you talking about? Zhong Chuhong raised his hand and hit his sister. Then comfort mother. The director has said that the task is to go to Melbourne's Chinatown for a cutscene, which is actually equivalent to a Christmas vacation benefit, which is used to reward the crew of God of Gamblers.

Speaking of this, Zhong Chuhong showed longing, Recently I saw a special introduction of koalas on Media Asia TV, and this time I can take a closer look.

Take more pictures and come back. Miss Zhong repeatedly urged enviously.

...

Zhong Chuhong didn't know until it was time to board the plane. The means of transportation for this journey is Tang Huan's famous private jet - Silicon Valley One. The God of Gamblers crew is only one of the passengers, and most of the others are behind-the-scenes personnel such as directors, screenwriters, and administrators in Media Asia TV and DreamWorks.

We belong to Brother Jing, otherwise we wouldn't be able to get on this private jet.

Zhou Runfa said with a smile.

The film crew actually borrowed the light of you two. Wang Jing smiled and looked at Zhou Runfa and Yu An'an who were sitting intimately together, Originally, Tang Sheng took the behind-the-scenes personnel of the TV station and DreamWorks to go on vacation, but he heard that After the news that you two were going to get married, I specifically mentioned it and approved a vacation for the two of you. The box office of God of Gamblers is so good, the crew should also go to Melbourne to play along.

Amidst the laughter, Zhou Xingchi asked: Have Brother Fa and Sister-in-Law chosen where to hold the wedding banquet?

I've chosen, at Maxim's Restaurant. Zhou Runfa nodded. DreamWorks and Qinhe are both owned by Tang Sheng. Let's find a location that is high-end and affordable. It will be much more convenient.

Yu An'an, who was acting like a little bird on the side, turned to Zhong Chuhong and Lu Xiuling, Ah Hong, Lu is ready, I invite you to be bridesmaids then.

Your team of bridesmaids is getting bigger and bigger. I'm under a lot of pressure to find a best man. Zhou Run said sigh.

...

The crew of God of Gamblers chatted in full swing, Media Asia TV and the behind-the-scenes staff of DreamWorks were also lively, among them, Li Zhaoxiong, Wang Xinwei, Liu Jiahao and Mei Xiaoqing, two couples, became the object of jokes.

Everyone said, It seems that finding a colleague as a wife is very convenient. For example, the vacation arranged by the company directly fulfills the world of two people.

...

In the future, the company will arrange more flexible vacations so that everyone can have more opportunities to get along with their families. Tang Huan, who boarded the plane last, said with a smile as he walked.

Hello, Tang Sheng. Everyone hurriedly greeted each other respectfully.

When walking past the crew of God of Gamblers, Tang Huan patted his pockets, I forgot to prepare the red envelopes. Ah Fa, An An, I will give you more in a few days.

Tang Sheng, An An and I are both your subordinates. Who will you give your red envelope in the end? Zhou Runfa asked with a playful smile.

What a shrewd Ah Fa, you are playing tricks and want two red envelopes. Tang Huan laughed loudly.

...

After Silicon Valley No. 1 took off smoothly, Tang Huan began to explain some things to Zhou Liangshuyi, tvb will go public next month, and I will hold part of the shares. This is just a cooperation to get out of Xiangjiang. At that time, you want Communicate well with the management of Media Asia TV to avoid misinterpretation.

Understood. Zhou Liangshuyi nodded, So, tvb agreed to expand its business to Canada with us?

Although Sir Shao had some doubts, he still agreed. After all, Xiangjiang is too small, diversification of management and internationalization are inevitable choices. Tang Huan pondered to ask for opinions, It seems that a public company is good for the image of the TV station. , do you think Media Asia TV is suitable for listing?

Zhou Liang Shuyi thought for a moment, and slowly replied: When Tang Sheng took over Li's TV, the value of the TV station's assets was around 200 million. Although the artist department was separated later, with the development of news, sports, variety shows and other programs, The large-scale development, investment in fixed assets such as comprehensive equipment replacement, coupled with the appreciation of intangible assets such as brands, the scale of Media Asia TV has not decreased but increased, more than doubling. But if it is placed in the stock market, The plate is still too small.

Are you worried that another change in equity will bring shock to Media Asia TV? Tang Huan nodded, Then let's put this matter aside and see the situation.

Seeing that Tang Huan really asked for advice, Zhou Liang Shuyi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Although Ge Yin has strong confidence in Tang Huan's financial resources, Media Asia TV is currently on the rise and is burning a lot of money. As the de facto top operating person in charge. She was instinctively apprehensive about any shareholding change.

You asked the Information Department to add two areas of focus. One is the issue of the Vietnamese boat people in Xiangjiang, and the other is the situation in the Funan battlefield. Tang Huan then assigned another task.

After the Vietnam War ended with the fall of Saigon on April 30, 1975, the problem of Vietnamese boat people in Xiangjiang began to emerge.

The first batch of refugees who entered Xiangjiang was as many as 3,700 people. They arrived in Xiangjiang on May 4, 1975 with the Danish registered cargo ship Chang_chun. prelude.

In the following years, refugees arrived in Hong Kong. In 1979, there were more than 68,700 people, and in 1980, it was more than 100,000 people.

In July 1979, the British government signed an international convention on dealing with Vietnamese refugees in Geneva, which included Xiangjiang as the first port of asylum.

That is to say, the refugees fleeing from Vietnam will be received by the first port of asylum first, and then the qualifications of refugees will be screened by Western countries, and the refugees who meet the screening standards will be accepted. They can go to these countries to settle down, and the rest will be repatriated by the government of the port of first asylum.

Because the British government required Xiangjiang to become the first port of asylum. Pushing the responsibility of taking care of the refugees to Hong Kong will naturally directly increase the burden on the Hong Kong government. For example, to accommodate a Vietnamese refugee, the Hong Kong government needs to spend about 12,000 Hong Kong dollars per year.

In the original time and space, as of 1998, the creditors attributed to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees had accumulated to 1.162 billion Hong Kong dollars, and the repayment time was nowhere in sight.

The problem of Vietnamese boat people has plagued Xiangjiang for 25 years. During this period, Xiangjiang received a total of 200,000 boat people.

In addition to bringing heavy burdens to the economy and public security, it also affects the daily life of many Hong Kong people. This element is frequently added to film and television works, such as winning many awards at the 2nd Hong Kong Film Awards. Running into the Raging Sea won an important award.

Therefore, Tang Huan mentioned that Selina Chow was not surprised that Media Asia TV paid attention to the issue of the Vietnamese boat people in Xiangjiang. It itself is a focus of the current society, but she was puzzled by paying attention to the situation in the Funan battlefield.

The Vietnamese boat people issue, Media Asia TV has been keeping an eye on it, but the situation in the Funan battlefield... Zhou Liang Shuyi looked at Tang Huan inquiringly, hoping that the boss could explain her intentions.

Expand your international horizons, just like you used to follow and report on the Falklands War. Tang Huan smiled slightly, Media Asia TV can organize a few more war reporters to enter Funan from Siam, and I will ask someone to help arrange it.

Then what kind of effect do you want to achieve? Zhou Liang Shuyi asked pointing to the core.

Can the people of Hong Kong realize that the changes in the Funan battlefield may affect the refugee issue, or may it be related to their own interests? Tang Huan asked rhetorically.

This boss's ideas are really unconstrained. Zhou Liang Shuyi, who muttered in her heart, frowned and began to think.

...

As early as 1851, Chinatown appeared in Melbourne along with the gold rush, and it has continued until now. It is the first Chinatown in Australia.

As the director Wang Jing said before, the God of Gamblers crew came here to do promotion, it was just a cutscene, and the reward vacation was real. Everyone quickly completed the task, and then had fun, and occasionally cooperated with Media Asia TV. The camera crew took some extras.

Koalas, kangaroos, alpacas... and other unique and cute animals, coupled with the beautiful scenery of Melbourne, made Zhong Chuhong's accumulated work fatigue for a year disappear in a flash.

Everyone, including Zhong Chuhong, was full of praise for this Christmas in the southern hemisphere, and even expressed emotion, It would be great if I could come here to retire here when I retire in the future.

Zhong Chuhong was sorting out the special gifts she bought in the hotel, when Wang Jing called, Ah Hong, Tang Sheng invited us to go surfing, I will wait for you in the lobby.

...

The West's enthusiasm for sailing reflects their sea power awareness to a certain extent, which cannot be deeply understood by the peoples who have been operating safely on the relatively closed eastern continent for thousands of years.

Among the many international events, the Cup - the America's Cup Regatta is the most famous and oldest sporting event, which originated on August 22, 1851.

At that time, a sailboat America ​​representing the consortium of the New York Yacht Club competed with 15 sailboats representing the Royal Clipper Fleet near the Isle of Wight in southern England.

In the end, the America ​​won with a 20-minute lead.

After Britain's maritime supremacy, considered invincible in those days, suffered such a blow, a series of British consortiums tried to win back the trophy.

But in 25 challenges over 132 years, the New York Yacht Club has miraculously remained undefeated, making it the longest winning streak in the history of sports.

However, this year, this record was broken. As the challenger, Australia won the final victory, which immediately caused a sensation. The momentum of sailing in Australia has suddenly risen.

The race that Ted Turner brought Tang Huan to enjoy was the Sydney-Hobart Sailing Race, a traditional summer Christmas event that began in 1945.

Tang Huan has been abducted by the master Ted Turner and is very obsessed with this kind of sea sports. He swims freely in the waves with a lot of pride in his chest, especially when he is accompanied by a beautiful woman.

At this time, Zhong Chuhong's exquisite body was leaning against Tang Huan's arms, and the two of them worked together to control a sailboard and dance with the waves.

After a wave hit the two of them, Zhong Chuhong flinched and said, I'm tired.

What are you talking about, speak up, I can't hear you clearly. Tang Huan shouted.

I said... Zhong Chuhong turned her head away, but Tang Huan blocked her mouth all of a sudden.

...

After carrying Zhong Chuhong, who was weak and weak, to the shore, Ted Turner sighed in admiration: It's good to be young, with inexhaustible physical strength, and quick recovery.

Why, do you feel that you are getting old? Tang Huan jokingly arranged Zhong Chuhong.

Who can compare with you, a genius who is not yet 30 years old. I am 45 this year, and I will be compared to my old age. Ted Turner smiled and shook his head.

Time flies so fast. In another year, Jobs and Gates, I, and I will be almost 30 years old. Tang Huan said with emotion.

Hearing this, Ted Turner had a thoughtful look on his face.

When Gein Tang Huan entered the United States, whether or not his age was fake has always been an inconclusive issue. Before that, he was targeted by someone who wanted to attack him, but there was no evidence, so he finally let it go.

Tang Huan's unintentional words just now seem to reveal a kind of mystery...

At this time, the subordinates came to report with binoculars that the sailboats participating in the competition had entered the last 10 kilometers.

Tang Huan and Ted Turner jumped up at the same time, picked up the binoculars, and looked for the sailing boats they sponsored.

I saw our ship, which is currently in the leading position. Tang Huan shouted happily.

Where is it? Ted Turner, who hadn't found the target for a while, became anxious.

This direction... Tang Huan pointed carefully.

Good job. After confirming the favorable position of one of his sailboats, Ted Turner also smiled happily, It seems that we can harvest another trophy.

The two were happily discussing how to celebrate for a while, when a subordinate suddenly shouted: Boss, our ship was knocked over... (To be continued.) u
