Start from 1980

Chapter 486 We Are a Local Enterprise

Qiu Degen, the founder of the Far East Group, is definitely a serious self-made man. He doesn't believe in fate. He believes that his huge property is all in exchange for hard work.

Tang Wanru's relationship with Mr. Qiu should be due to Asian TV.

When he was in the United States, Su Chen asked Tang Wanru to find a way to get in touch, to see if he could buy the shares of ATV from Mr. Qiu.

Asian TV can be said to have a relatively long history.

In 1982, Mr. Qiu bought 50% of the shares of Li's TV Station, renamed it "Asian TV Station", reorganized the organization, and acted as the chairman of the board.

Later, there were films such as "Huo Yuanjia", "Chen Zhen", "Huo Dongge" and other ancient costume martial arts films.

Because "loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness" has always been respected by the Chinese people, and these three TV dramas promote this tradition, so once they were broadcast, they immediately caused a sensation in Hong Kong and mainland China.

"ATV" instantly became famous.

Since then, "ATV" has launched a series of costume dramas one after another: "Wu Zetian", "Qin Shihuang" and "Xi Shi", all of which were successful and had extremely high ratings.

Among them, "Wu Zetian" is still broadcast overseas, appearing frequently on the TV screens of Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, Britain, France and other countries.

The rapid development of Asian TV stations caused the panic of TVB, and the two sides launched a fierce competition.

In April 1984, ATV launched the "Everyone Morning" program, which mainly rebroadcasts the highlights of comprehensive programs, and it was determined to be an informative morning news program.

In addition, ATV won the right to host "Miss Asia" this year, breaking TVB's [-]-year monopoly on beauty pageants.

This has made the competition between the two TV stations more intense, but ATV is still at a loss.

I just don't know whether Mr. Qiu Degen's visit at this time is to sell ATV, or because of other reasons.

Tang Wanru said: "Quickly ask Mr. Qiu to come in."

Not a while later, this legendary boss stepped into the office, followed by several people.

Tang Wanru stepped forward quickly: "Mr. Qiu, hello."

"Mary, hello." Qiu Degen, who was in his early sixties, was hale and hearty, and he shook hands with Tang Wanru with a smile.

Tang Wanru continued: "Mr. Qiu, let me introduce you. This is Mr. Su Chensu, the chairman of our Shengshi Holdings."

For a moment, Qiu Degen felt a little incredible.

Shengshi Holdings has done a lot of things in Hong Kong during this period, and it is difficult not to attract attention.

No matter who sells the real estate, the first person to arrive at the scene is definitely the person from Saatchi Landmark.

At the same time, Shengshi invested in Kangnian Bank, which also aroused many people's doubts: what is the origin of Shengshi Holdings, which appeared overnight.

Anyway, this Shengshi Holdings seems to be doing everything.

In addition to the above industries, there is also Oriental Films below. Tsui Hark is currently working in Oriental Films. In addition, Oriental Films has also established two very powerful departments.

One is special effects takeaway and the other is special effects takeaway.

These are two concepts, the stunt is the car explosion, the chase, some cool, awesome looking stuff; the special effects needless to say.

Moreover, they are the most advanced special effects and special effects in Hong Kong, and even some film companies are planning to find this company's special effects for takeaway.

However, the boss of Shengshi Holdings has always been a mystery.

Everyone only saw Tang Wanru, the president, and this president used to work at First Boston Bank. In a few years, he transformed into the president of a large company.

Although Shengshi Holdings has emerged like a newcomer, local businessmen in Hong Kong dare not underestimate it.

Everyone has their own channels, knowing that Shengshi Real Estate has contributed a lot to the development of Shenzhen, and some people even think that it is someone from the capital.

Su Chen stretched out his hand: "Mr. Qiu, hello, I've heard about you for a long time, and I finally got to meet you today."

"I didn't expect the chairman of Shengshi Holdings to be so young. It seems that he is really like the old man Taizu said, counting the romantic figures, and looking at the present." Qiu Degen said with a smile: "Shengshi's handwriting is very big. Today, an old man like me It was a pleasure to meet you."

"Mr. Qiu is polite, please sit down." Su Chen said with a smile.

Once seated, the secretary was busy making tea again.

After sitting down, Qiu Degen said: "Chairman Su, this period of prosperity is like a dragon crossing the river, sweeping all aspects of Hong Kong, the power is unstoppable."

Between the words, you will know the intention.

Su Chen smiled slightly: "Mr. Qiu, Shengshi Holdings is not a dragon in the river. In fact, we have been rooted in Hong Kong since 81. We can be regarded as a local snake in Hong Kong. It's just that we have been making small troubles before. Just be careful of making big noises."

"It seems that my old man's information is behind." Qiu Degen said with a smile: "I didn't expect it to be a local company in Hong Kong, and I didn't expect that the chairman and president are so young. It seems that the market in Hong Kong is still decided by you young people." .”

"Mr. Qiu, I don't know who will decide the future market of Hong Kong." Tang Wanru said, "Whether it's the four major families or a business giant like Mr. Qiu, they are all our predecessors."

"However, because we developed late, we can only strive to catch up with the seniors and try to speed up the pace, but we need the support of the seniors. I wonder if Mr. Qiu can support us who are juniors?"

There is no need for Shengshi Holdings to show its sharpness now. If the four major families join forces, it will be really difficult to deal with. If the four major families join forces with other companies, it will be even more difficult to deal with.

It's not that there is no way, but that there is no need to make enemies everywhere now.

Qiu Degen laughed: "I was thinking about you talking about some advanced management experience with us old men, but you asked me to support you instead, Mary, you are making it difficult for me, an old man, right?"

Then, he changed the subject: "Asian TV is now profitable and is turning around its loss. I don't think I need to sell it to you. Besides, you already have Oriental Pictures under your umbrella. Do you want to get involved in the TV industry?"

"Although TV and movies are somewhat different, they still have the same business content." Su Chen said, "Mr. Mister is definitely making a lot of money."

"Although it is only a small part of the profit, if we continue to operate, we will definitely make a profit. Whether it is Hong Kong or Southeast Asia, the films we release will have a great response. It is only a matter of time." Qiu Degen said.

Tang Wanru smiled happily: "Mr. Qiu, although you said that profit is only a matter of time, but I think it will take a long time, so our quotation of 3000 million is definitely the fairest price, without any suppression of the price."

Qiu Degen looked at Su Chen, and suddenly asked a seemingly irrelevant topic: "Chairman Su, I think you look familiar, where are you from?"

"I'm from the capital." Su Chen said.

Qiu Degen glanced at him, and said again: "Are you the graduate of the Harvard University speech?"

"It's me." Su Chen nodded.

"Okay!" Qiu Degen slapped his hands suddenly!
His face suddenly became a little excited: "Harvard is the first Chinese who has achieved a graduate degree to a doctoral student, and is also the first Chinese to give a speech at Harvard's graduation ceremony. He really is a heroic boy!"

This old man still has deep affection for his motherland, and he has been following the development and changes of the mainland.

No wonder there is such an expression.

And since the 80s, he has returned to his motherland to invest.

In the Shekou Industrial Zone, he invested in the construction of a huge Far East Flour Mill covering an area of ​​[-] square meters.

Since then, he has invested in the hotel industry in many cities and other places in the Mainland to develop the tourism industry in the Mainland.

In May of this year, he sold a 5% stake in Far East Bank to Huamei International Co., Ltd. with a Chinese background, in order to strengthen business ties with the mainland.

"Then what about Asian TV?" Su Chen asked.

Qiu Degen frowned instantly: "Why are you following my ATV? Why don't you buy TVB?"

After pondering for a while, he said, "You can buy ATV if you want. I have a condition. If you can accept it, we can talk about it. If you can't accept it, let it go."
