354 Color Times, Underground Federal Court (5,000 words)

Young and handsome actors are popular in the mainland in the 21st century. They use their "amazing" acting skills and amazing pay to create countless film and television dramas of amazing quality.

Compared to them, Hong Kong artists are really unfair. They worked hard all their lives to spend their entire lives on the set, and they only received a meager salary. Except for the top presences who are popular and internationally able to promote the "Girls of the Family". Hong Kong actors cannot even be called stars, but can only be considered artists.

Among the few exceptions, Xie Xian is a stunning existence; Hong Kong may not have a young and handsome culture, but it is not without young and handsome people. This is the ancestor of Hong Kong Island and even later generations.

Hong Kong films in the 1960s have not yet ushered in the era of martial arts films. Even with Zhou Wenqiang's The Legend of the Condor Heroes trilogy, most viewers are still immersed in talented men and beautiful women, and they are intimate. In this era of "big heroine", it is definitely not easy for Xie Xian to become popular in Hong Kong. So when he announced his job again and joined the True Dragon TV station and became a long-term star artist, he immediately attracted the attention of countless girls, young women, aunts and old ladies.

That's a 30,000 yuan pay! Just a male counter-speaking number one in a TV series can earn so much? Mr. Zhou really bought a horse bone with a daughter. I just don't know if the youngest richest man and Inspector General Hua are for Xie Jiayu or for this "Drug Hunting"?

On TV, Xie Xian was wearing a white suit and white leather shoes, an extremely coquettish red tie, and a sun toad glasses. He spit out a few elegant cigar smoke rings. When he announced his cooperation with Mr. Zhou and his pay of up to 30,000 yuan to Hong Kong artists, the leading stars of major film companies immediately looked at it and felt extremely unbalanced.

These stars who are active in the 60th generation can't imagine that when Shaw Brothers' studio and later TVB are established, these stars will gradually be stripped of their star halo by Shao Laoliu and become artists from now on. Without the genius talents of Brother Long, Brother Fa, and Stephen Chow, they would only tremble under the shadow of capital.

At this time, they were still enjoying the dividends brought by full competition among film and television companies, and their income was much higher than that of ordinary citizens, leading actresses and young actors, even dozens of times that of public officials. They were born in blessings and did not know how lucky they still looked at Xie Laosi, who was so elegant and elegant, and were indignant. Why can this guy be looked at by Mr. Zhou differently, but I can't?

Who said no?

The envious, jealous and hated colleagues soon received the long-awaited news. Mr. Zhou is really a big deal! In order to shoot the TV series "Drug Hunting", he actually called on colleagues from all over Hong Kong to participate. Any actor is welcome to participate in the performance of the show. Moreover, this anti-drug charity film will create three firsts in Hong Kong's history.

The first public welfare TV series!

The first TV series with an investment of over one million!

The first TV series participated by Hong Kong film and television workers!

Wow! Mr. Zhou is so powerful, so powerful!

As soon as the news came out, Hong Kong was in full swing, and a magnitude 10 earthquake broke out in the film and television industry!

Shao Yifu covered his chest and took two tablets of heart-boosting medicine before he could calm down. Looking at the headlines of the TV station, radio station and major newspapers, he was in tears for a moment.

Are you mistaken? You can invest more than one million in a TV series?

What is the market in the Hong Kong film and television industry now? A movie called "Grand Casino" only invests 50,000 to 100,000 yuan, and there may not be one or two such investment-level movies in a year. If you shoot a TV series, you will spend millions. This is not the case if you have money. How can you live with your peers?

Seeing Zhou Wenqiang's pay for some stars, Shao Yifu's eyes turned dark. I hope this was just Mr. Zhou's daughter bought a horse bone. If he played like this every time, Shaw's people would sooner or later become young birds of youth and never return...

Zhou Wenqiang's approach made various film companies complain collectively, but they still had to cooperate. The actors were happy. Even young actors could get dozens of Hong Kong dollars in a TV series, and Mr. Zhou was sympathetic to us and treated us as human beings! There is a saying in the Hong Kong film and television industry now, "You can't be a person, but Mr. Zhou is the first choice for worshiping the mountain."

That's right, since his return from Nanyang, Shaw Yifu has been preparing for his large studio system. Now there are still six or seven years before the official establishment of the Shaw Brothers Empire, but it has gradually revealed the fangs of capital, and the exploitation of actors has begun to appear.

After taking over the basic foundation of the Shaw Brothers, the Shaw Brothers have now had seven or eight theaters in Hong Kong. In addition, the "Nanyang Cinema" that Shaw has been working in Nanyang for many years, many film companies have to give it face; not to mention that exploiting actors is good for everyone, so it is natural that it responds to all. The current Hong Kong film and television industry has begun to gradually transform from the "star economy" to the "artist economy". The leading stars of some film companies and famous directors have actually smelled the danger.

But the situation is better than that of others, and everyone dares to be angry but not speak out.

Now that Mr. Zhou is taking action, he is a daughter who buys horse bones and is sincere in sympathy for actors, he immediately becomes the savior in the hearts of the actors. Who wouldn’t support him?

If Zhou Wenqiang had not only established a TV station and had not established a film company, I'm afraid the stars of many companies would have considered changing jobs.

While Zhou Wenqiang became the savior in the eyes of countless Hong Kong actors, he also excited countless TV viewers on Hong Kong.

Beiwang Group announced that in half a month, the first batch of 14-inch "big color TVs" produced by Texas Instruments, a lighthouse country, will be launched on Hong Kong Island! The first batch will be 5,000 units, and will accelerate the realization of the "color era" of Hong Kong Island at a rate of 5,000 units per month!

The price of each color TV is 5,000 Hong Kong dollars, and it can still provide installment purchases and commercial loans. At the same time, Beiwang Group has also launched the 'old trade-in' business. The existing black and white TVs will be discounted by 500 yuan, directly offsetting the price of color TVs!

After the news was announced, the women went crazy!

They are like little princesses who are in charge of TV switches at home. Since I heard that there are color TVs in the world, they have started to dream of color TVs. You can't imagine the persistent pursuit of color TVs in this era, just like women in later generations pursuing the limited edition of Chanel, the limited edition of Louis Vuitton rag bag, the big villa, the Bentley, the Rolls-Royce...

If they can't catch up with the trend of color TV, they will be crazy! They are shameless to meet people when they go out, so how can they chat with their best friends? What kind of house? When the man in the family says that 5,000 yuan can be paid for the first phase of the house, they will immediately list various data to tell men that there are houses everywhere in this world, but not every house has a "big color TV"!

Let you tell yourself whether the house is important or the color TV is important? The men lowered their heads in shame... I am just a fool, and I am so stupid that I reasoned with my wife? But the color TV seems to be good, and the female stars on it are more beautiful than those in black and white TV, right?

Buy, buy, buy! You have to buy even if you sell it! Mr. Zhou is so conscientious. Old black and white TVs can still be discounted? It is higher than those black-hearted capitalists!

......

The troubles of happiness are also very tormenting. He Shanheng and Luther never expected that one day they would toss and turn and suffer from insomnia due to too much business volume.

Those who work in banks are afraid of people taking loans? This is a big joke! In today's era, loan business is equivalent to crops in farmers' fields, piece counts in workers' hands, food in front of gourmets, photos of male celebrities at widows' bedside... What should I eat if I don't work in loan banks? Of course, the more the more, the better. Even if the bank does not absorb enough savings, I can cash out the loan debts in the interbank lending market immediately.

But if you don’t do this, you’re doing it like this. The interbank lending market cannot keep up with the thinking of the richest man in Hong Kong. He has a deep concern about the debt rights of mortgage loans. Before using black and white TV mortgages, the mortgage of houses has already put Hang Seng and HSBC under great pressure and fell into the trouble of happiness. Then he has to borrow a loan of 50 million Hong Kong dollars!

The money was too big and the profit was quite high. The two of them were really reluctant to give up the debt. They made up their minds to eat alone, and ended up investing 60% of the bank's reserves. Before they could recover, Beiwang Group announced another high-profile announcement that it would advance Hong Kong Island to the "color era"!

Oh my God! This is a 'big color TV' of 5,000 yuan per unit! Now a house worth 600 feet is only 15,000 to 20,000 Hong Kong dollars!

The key point is that Zhou Wenqiang also came up with a sales strategy of "old for new". Black and white TVs have been almost fully popularized in the past eight years. The number of black and white TVs in Hong Kong has exceeded 200,000! Only half of them need to be replaced with color TVs. How much loan does this require?

After the color TV is discounted with black and white TV, the price of each TV becomes 4,500 yuan, and 100,000 units is 450 million Hong Kong dollars! Even if you subtract 30% of the down payment, you still need a loan of 300 million Hong Kong dollars. Beiwang Group is not under any pressure. Consumers have to pay the full payment and after completing the mortgage procedures, the bank will have to pay them the full payment. But how much pressure does the bank have to bear?

Even if Hang Seng and HSBC share the business, they feel very stressed! This does not include the housing mortgage business that has been working with Beiwang Group for a long time.

Moreover, what if 200,000 black and white TVs go to "exchange old"?

It would be strange if He Shanheng and Luther could sleep. They felt that the pie was too big. They just hit their heads and didn’t say that, but they seemed to be made of iron!

Split the business to other banks? Stop talking nonsense, this is simply a traitor. You can’t help but give yourself a few big mouths when you think about it!

So there are only two solutions left. First, increase deposit income in disguise through various means, so that peers cannot object and absorb more deposits. Second, talk to Mr. Zhou, persuade him to buy more shares, and completely tie Zhou Wenqiang, the initiator of "creating risks", to a certain extent, to reduce the risks of the bank itself. In the future, if there is a problem, it will be easy to explain to the board of directors.

Luther is only the head of the Hong Kong Island region of HSBC and has no right to sell shares, so he can only consider the first plan; after careful consideration, He Shanheng decided to take a two-pronged approach. On the one hand, he bypassed the supervision of the Hong Kong Island Monetary Authority through various means to increase deposit income in disguise to attract more savings. On the other hand, he proposed to meet Zhou Wenqiang and prepare to persuade him to buy more shares.

Don’t think that Hang Seng’s shares cannot be sold. Most people are unwilling to sell them even if they are rich. However, Zhou Wenqiang’s identity determines that the more shares he holds in Hang Seng Bank, the more helpful it will be to Hang Seng’s reputation, which is absolutely beneficial. Of course, the premise is that he cannot obtain controlling rights.

What surprised He Shanheng was that Zhou Wenqiang seemed to be prepared for a long time. Shortly after receiving the call, Jiang Wentao came with a blank contract. It took only half a day to finalize that Beiwang Group would purchase 4.8% of Hang Seng's shares for HK$5.2 million.

At this point, Zhou Wenqiang owns 24.8% of Hang Seng shares and becomes the second largest shareholder of Hang Seng Bank. I remembered that he bought 20% of Hang Seng Bank in the early days for only three million Hong Kong dollars nine years ago, Zhou Wenqiang couldn't help but sigh that it took only a few years to become too thick...

"Wentao, how many characters have you started selling properties now? How many properties have we acquired and how much working capital is there in hand?"

The business is getting bigger and bigger. Just calculating the gross profit and net profit of monthly income and expenditure is a big deal. Beiwang Group has established a group financial department. Each of your subordinate companies has financial branches. The accounts must be settled every month. After reporting to the Financial Director Office, it will be submitted to Jiang Wentao. Jiang Wentao now not only has to deal with the group's legal business, but also the group's God of Wealth. If each company uses more than one million funds, he needs to nod.

It is precisely with him, his right-hand assistant that Zhou Wenqiang can live a leisurely life, occasionally formulate big strategic policies for the group, and have plenty of time to accompany his wife, and can also play guest roles after work.

"Boss, we have a loan of 50 million from HSBC and Hang Seng. The group has mobilized 20 million yuan at the same time. However, if you remove the 5.2 million yuan you purchased Hang Seng shares, the current funds can be mobilized is 64.8 million yuan. Although you have controlled 16% of Texas Instruments through Miss Monroe, we still have to pay a deposit of 1 million US dollars for color TVs, so the funds can be mobilized at present are about 55 million yuan."

Jiang Wentao didn't have to read the information, just like the knowledge: "At present, major characters are selling their properties. This is a group of prodigal sons. Their properties were often purchased more than ten or even decades ago, and they were often in excellent positions, but now they are sold at 90% of the market price! We and Lei Group and Zhongjia Wanhengxing have reached a consensus that the acquisition can be done, but the price will continue to be reduced. At least 20% will be reduced before we consider purchasing."

"Enterprises or families with certain strength such as the Li family and Zheng family are waiting and watching. They should not take action, because everyone knows that the boss is the final decision for the Hong Kong real estate market. In order to buy the properties of these short mules, they offended us and Mr. Lei and Mr. Zhong at the same time. This is not a smart approach. But..."

"But what?"

"But Li Jiacheng seems to be interested in taking action. According to the information I have received, his business has become bigger and bigger in recent years. In addition to following us in real estate, he has a lot of vision and has made a lot of money, he also uses the Kowloon Dongtou Village incident to enter the distribution network, water treatment and other businesses. He has a good relationship with Bailiji. It has a plastic factory, Yellow River Infrastructure, Yellow River Industry and other companies. The Yellow River Group has begun to take shape."

"He is still a rule and does not use any means to divide the boss's shares. Huanghe Industrial, which the boss owns the equity, is still the parent company of the controlling companies. Most of the benefits obtained belong to the boss, so we did not snipe the Yellow River Group."

"Li Jiacheng is very smart, so he knows how to advance and retreat and continue to stock up."

Zhou Wenqiang nodded and said, "How much money has he raised?"

"About 8 million, with a good vision. I guess I want to drink some soup with my boss."

Jiang Wentao smiled and said, "I have already passed the message to him. It is okay to acquire it, but he can only acquire the property we look down on, otherwise he will bear the consequences."

"Well done. Wentao, you will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be worth about 80 million yuan, which is 70% or 56 million yuan. We will be able to acquire 70% of the property. We must let the Lei family and the Zhong family participate together, because this time I am not only purchasing the property, but also having enough allies. Whether in terms of economy or the power of justice, it must be enough to compete with the Hong Kong Governor behind each character..."

Zhou Wenqiang smiled and said, "Don't invest the remaining funds elsewhere for the time being. According to my estimate, even if you sell the money in each character, there will still be a funding gap of at least 20 million yuan. I need you to secretly lend this money to them through underground banks... That's right, it is usury, a usury loan that the world's underground banking system recognizes and provides power guarantees."

Jiang Wentao frowned and said, "Boss, I suggest you don't contact the world's underground money house system. This system has always been known to the world. Even ordinary citizens have heard of their name, but the police from various countries are powerless to do anything about it. Legend has it that this system is jointly recognized by gangs all over the world, and the top underground forces on various continents jointly maintain its authority. It is equivalent to the "Lighthouse National Federal Court" of the underground world, and its power is unfathomable."

"And you have planned to whitewash 150 million of the white flour sold in the name of Xin'anyi and Hongxing through underground money houses, and you are unwilling to come forward in person. Why do you want me to contact them again?"

It is impossible to be a barrister without understanding the world's underground money house, but the more Jiang Wentao understands, the more terrible it is, and he does not want the boss to take risks.

Compared with the world's underground money house, the opponents the boss met before were simply a bunch of elementary school students.

"Wen Tao, you don't understand. The 150 million yuan will be injected into the Beiwang Group in the end. Of course, I will not interfere in the whitewashing process. But these 20 million usury loans are those 'working money' with the word "sold money". Of course, I want them to know that the person who contributed the money was Zhou Wenqiang!"

Zhou Wenqiang smiled faintly: "They will definitely be very surprised. They thought that I, the Chief Inspector Hua, had another way to make money. They even thought that I was inconsistent with them and did not share the benefits of monetizing white faces with them, but they got a share of the pie in this way."
