Rebirth of the Tech Madman

The construction background of the White Swan Hotel is that in 1978, when the strategic decision of "internal reform and opening to the outside world" was about to be issued, the National Tourism Administration formulated a plan for eight Sino-foreign joint venture hotels, namely, to build eight Sino-foreign joint ventures in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Nanjing. Hotel.

Boss Huo responded positively, and this White Swan Hotel was built.

Among them, Huo’s invested 50 million Hong Kong dollars, another Chinese businessman, Peng Guozhen, invested 12.5 million Hong Kong dollars, and the Guangdong Provincial Tourism Bureau invested 4 million yuan.

In 1981, White Swan Hotel also loaned 36.31 million U.S. dollars to the Guangzhou Branch of Bank of China.

Based on the current exchange rate, the total investment in the construction of the White Swan Hotel is close to 1.8 billion yuan.

The reason why the cost is so huge is not unrelated to the geographical particularity of the site of the White Swan Hotel on Shamian Island. To a certain extent, it reflects the personal preference of Huo boss.

If the Guangzhou Municipal Government’s suggestion of choosing a location on Huanshi Road is really adopted, the construction of the White Swan Hotel may not be so time-consuming.

Just like Tang Huan, in conjunction with the operation of the Zheru R&D Center, it tends to be practical. He also invested in the construction of a hotel, but it did not take so much effort.

Of course, it is precisely because of this that once the White Swan Hotel is completed, it has become a landmark of Yangcheng, and the huge influence it has produced is worth the fare.

Boss Huo, who has always been good at creating momentum, will add an aura of the world's richest man to stay at the newly opened White Swan Hotel this time.

Tang Huan deliberately kept a low profile at the production base in the special zone. After personally interviewing the preparations for the inspection, he went to Yangcheng with great fanfare.

As soon as he entered the boundaries of the Yangcheng District, he changed to a brand new Rolls Royce, crossed most of the old city, and drove to the White Swan Hotel.

"This battle is really noisy." Tang Huan joked as he watched the curious crowd on the side of the road.

"How can I wait for you?" The Young Master Huo, who came to greet him, smiled and complimented, "This is the first Rolls-Royce in Yangcheng, and it just matches your identity, my brother."

Tang Huan smiled without saying a word. The word "face" is too knowledgeable.

After the driver with a big cap and white gloves stopped the car, under the guidance of the manager, Tang Huan walked into the White Swan Hotel, which has set several firsts in China.

These records include: China’s first self-designed, self-built, and self-managed modern large-scale Sino-foreign cooperative hotel; China’s first four-door high-end hotel open to the public; China’s first hotel to implement a tripartite partnership with Japan and Hong Kong A hotel that operates a Japanese restaurant in cooperation; the first hotel in China that fully implements computerized management; the first hotel in China that uses credit cards for checkout and implements eight foreign exchange payment methods.

It is worth mentioning that. The realization of the last two points relies on the computer information solution provided by Zheru Xiangjiang Company.

The hotel management system, in addition to fully supporting Chinese, also provides a graphical operation interface, which greatly reduces the difficulty of receiving training for basic-level operators.

Tang Huan deliberately followed the process of this hotel management system. Walked through the various departments in the White Swan Hotel.

After hearing Zhou Weikun's introduction that the other seven of the eight major hotels planned by the National Tourism Administration would also adopt their own hotel management system, he ended the exploration with satisfaction.

"Brother, you are really a workaholic." Huo Da Young Master shook his head with a smile.

"Don't worry, I won't forget what I promised you. If there is something delicious, just go ahead." Tang Huan waved and walked to his guest room.

The architectural design of the White Swan Hotel is undertaken by the Chinese, but the interior design. Boss Huo insisted on inviting foreign designers from the famous American hba hotel design company to do it.

Therefore, the interior design of the White Swan Hotel is definitely among the most high-end in the mainland at present. Tang Huan really does not see any shortcomings in terms of hardware, so he can directly experience and evaluate the more important software services.

"I don't know what kind of flavor Mr. Tang likes" the manager asked respectfully.

"Yes, whatever you want to eat, just order it. Then this dish will be fixed, called the world's richest man's recipe." Huo Da Young Master smiled, making no secret of his wishful thinking.

"Then I will live here for nothing in the future, and the right to charge advertising fees." Tang Huan complained. Make everyone on the road laugh.

"Let's have a roasted pig." Tang Huan turned to Xie Ning after saying a word, "A Ning, you are here. You can help me order some other distinctive Cantonese dishes with meat and vegetables."

When the crowd was gone, when the room was quiet, Tang Huan wiped his face with a hot towel, and sat on the sofa to think about the details of the head of Deng who would see the Southern Tour next month.

In 1984, following the four special zones. Fourteen cities along the coast will also be opened. Under the impetus of Chief Deng, China as a whole has begun to obviously get rid of the state of restraint, and it will be much easier to do things by yourself.

In the case of the martial artist's group fight in private, Fang Yihua could not get a statement from Hu Yinmeng. The sentence "I am also a lot of injuries" made her speechless.

Next, Fang Yihua pinched his nose again and bid with Media Asia TV for the latest TV drama Xinzha, the latest filming of DreamWorks.

In the past, when TVB competed with Rei’s TV, it could also use some methods that could not be put on the table. For example, when the TV series Celestials became popular, the artist who encouraged the leading actor to disappear for a period of time.

But now DreamWorks and Media Asia TV’s powerful strategic weapons are too deterrent, Fang Yihua dare not use these methods at all, so as not to provoke the crazy ambition of high-paying poaching.

Fighting for financial resources, who can beat Tang Huan, the British Land and Yihe, are so lost, so terrible, it is too daunting.

Therefore, Fang Yihua just watched indifferently when he knew that DreamWorks had been innovating and had been preparing for a long time and cooperating with the Hong Kong Police Force to shoot a TV series on the theme of the fashion police force.

At this stage, the image of the police in Xiangjiang cannot be said to be glorious and majestic. They are often associated with the impression that they mainly serve the wealthy. The bad guys in the police are even more common in movies. The people generally hold the idea of ​​"good men are not soldiers". , Stay away from this profession.

In this context, DreamWorks launched a TV series dedicated to the Hong Kong police. The future is really unpredictable, and only DreamWorks, which is not short of money, can be so confident.

The experienced Fang Yihua is not optimistic about this TV series. In particular, DreamWorks seems to have the idea of ​​trying. The cast is all newcomers. Liang Chaowei and Zhang Manyu are borrowed from tvb, while Liu Jialing, Liu Qingyun and other unknown people are sent on their side. And Wei Jiahui, the head of the screenwriting team, has never heard of it.

But after a traffic accident this summer, the trend of society seems to have changed.

This matter is related to Qiu Degen, founder and chairman of the Far East Bank, founder and chairman of the board of directors and CEO of the Far East Development Group. It was the person who bought Li TV from the Australian consortium in the original time and space, and changed its name to Asia Television, and personally served as the chairman of the board of directors.

The reason why Qiu Degen is talked about is that he has made many reforms to Li's TV. This made the TV station’s ratings and finances improved, turning losses into profits, and became one of the few profitable bosses among Yunyun ATV’s shareholders over the past few decades.

In fact, to put it bluntly, there is not much mystery in it. Qiu Degen and Run Run run roughly the same number of paths, which is the word thrift.

During the period when Qiu Degen mastered ATV, this policy was carried out very thoroughly, even a little bit mean.

such as. Costume TV dramas are the same regardless of the Tang, Song, Yuan and Ming Dynasties. There are also rumors that ATV employees can only use four bars of toilet paper a day, and that the New Year’s benefit is a coupon for Far East Bank.

As for this time and space, Qiu Degen has not sold out about 10% of his shares in tvb for cash out, and he is still an important shareholder of tvb.

It's such an influential figure who has made a big deal.

In the early morning of July 14, his fourth son, Qiu Da, drunk and drove his girlfriend home. While passing through Kowloon Princess Road, he knocked down the police officer Zheng Menghui who was standing guard at the roadblock and dragged him hundreds of meters.

After Zheng Menghui was sent to the hospital. He died of his injuries on the 23rd and was only 20 years old.

This case has not yet been finalized.

Therefore, the positive value of public opinion to the Hong Kong police. There was a lot of controversy, and more and more people began to change their impression of this profession.

Of course, tvb has keenly noticed this change, and I wanted to start the project, but DreamWorks has already done all kinds of work, and there is really no room for operation.

I'm thinking of trying it out. After watching the samples of the TV series Senior Brother Xinzha, Fang Yihua couldn't help taking a breath, saying that Wei Jiahui, who had been unknown before, had a good screenwriting.

As a youth inspirational drama, the story of Brother Xinzha is based on the Xiangjiang Junior Police Training School. It is a high school established by the Hong Kong Police Force since the 1970s. In addition to general studies, students must also receive disciplinary training. After graduation, they can apply for admission to the Police Force first.

Brother Xinzha told about the growth experience of many teenagers who entered the school, from entering the school to graduation, and then entering the police force. It includes the setbacks and development of each person in various aspects such as family, society, career, and love.

Fang Yihua understands too well that this kind of story of rising from the grass roots with love and hatred in the middle has always been the favorite of Hong Kong people. Coupled with the extremely novel police background, it is difficult not to attract people.

After an urgent internal discussion, Fang Yihua formally requested Hu Yinmeng to purchase the first-round broadcasting rights of Senior Brother Xinzha.

Hu Yinmeng replied bluntly, "Media Asia TV has also taken a fancy to this TV series. If you want, you two can enter the bidding process."

Before this, tvb had purchased some dramas that the other party was good at producing, such as Bean Sprout Dream, from DreamWorks, but basically it had not competed with Media Asia TV.

One of the reasons is that tvb’s own production capabilities are strong enough, and the other is that although Media Asia TV and DreamWorks are operating, the boss behind it is Tang Huan alone. TVb doesn’t want its own money to be in the left and right hands. Falling back and forth from time to time, and eventually become the laughing stock of people who are stupid and rich in money.

Therefore, this is the first time that TVB and Media Asia have face-to-face bidding for the same TV series from DreamWorks.

In view of the fact that Xiangjiang has set up a slightly unique bidding process for two competing TV stations, the self-proclaimed "neutral" DreamWorks, that is, the two TV stations only have three chances to raise their placards, and the one with the highest price will get the last one Prevent one party from deliberately making trouble and maliciously raising the opponent's purchase cost.

Fang Yihua could only complain about this, and even said that DreamWorks and Media Asia TV belong to two separate families. The rule is that you both take care of each other. DreamWorks will not dominate Media Asia TV in terms of the price of the drama, and Media Asia TV also Tacitly won't make DreamWorks lose money, but once tvb joins in, it may be attacked on both sides.

Who made it fall behind this time, Fang Yihua had no choice but to bite the bullet, sitting with Sue Zhou of Media Asia TV, and gambling with numbers.

In the end, TVB smashed millions out and snatched Senior Brother Xinzha from Media Asia TV abruptly.

Fang Yihua, who was secretly heartbroken, kept comforting herself, and should be rewarded by Liang Chaowei and Zhang Manyu, who had cultivated her new artists in DreamWorks.

"DreamWorks is getting more and more profitable. When I watched the samples of Brother Xinzha, I found a lot of sponsor advertisements." Fang Yihua complained bitterly.

"Isn't everyone doing the filming like this now." Hu Yinmeng smiled and accepted the check from the other party, "Thank you for your patronage. By the way, I forgot to say that, DreamWorks will give away a high-standard Xinzha senior release conference for free. By then, Mr. Tang and the Chief of the Hong Kong Police Department should show up."

A look of surprise flashed across Fang Yihua's face, and then he said dissatisfiedly: "You little Nizi have too many ghosts and eyes, why didn't you say it earlier, maybe you are looking forward to tvb to miss the Xinzha brother."

"Who would have trouble with money? I really just remembered it." Hu Yinmeng smiled and waved his hand.

Fang Yihua felt that the money he had spent was too valuable. On the day of the press conference of Senior Brother Xinzha, Tang Huan’s Rolls-Royce with the No. 3 license plate and the Chief of Police Department of Xiangjiang; Henry Han Yili’s No. 1 car, Stopped side by side, the reporters were so excited that they held up their cameras ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and gathered around for a long time.

The Hong Kong Police Department is a major customer of Zheru Xiangjiang Company, and everything from file management to ID card system is a big project. Therefore, Tang Huan has long been familiar with the senior officials of the Xiangjiang Police Department.

This time, the two sides have cooperated on Senior Brother Xinzha. It is also a happy situation. The Hong Kong police need to improve their image, and DreamWorks has also expanded its own drama.

However, there is also a demand for interests that cannot be stated.

Tang Huan had some supplies that needed to be transferred to Siam through the free port of Xiangjiang, and then sent to Funan where his uncle Han Anyuan was located.

Although several big countries have acquiesced in this kind of transportation, here in Xiangjiang, the **** of the Xiangjiang police is still needed.

On December 22, Senior Brother Xinzha premiered during the prime time of TVB from 7 to 8 pm, and it quickly caused a huge sensation. Except for Liang Chaowei, Zhang Manyu, Liu Jialing, Liu Qingyun and other pink and tender newcomers, the faces were remembered by the audience. In addition, it even increased the number of applicants for the police, which is really exaggerated to the extreme. To be continued.
