Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 1469 Personal Promise

According to Li Zhengnan's request, Zhang Jingyu went to see Lin Daoqiu again.

The meeting this time went very smoothly at the beginning. After all, the budget of [-] million US dollars has already been approved. It seems that Lin Daoqiu is unlikely to have a reason to refuse.

It's just that Lin Daoqiu helped Baodao to film, and his purpose was to obtain Baodao's TV station license.

He had talked about this with Song Yaolian, and I believe that Li Zhengnan should also know about it, but Zhang Jingyu, a newcomer, seemed to know nothing about it.

"Director Zhang, it stands to reason that the money has already been approved and I should start the preparations for the film immediately, but there is one thing we still need to solve first."

Zhang Jingyu nodded quickly. Although he didn't know what Lin Daoqiu was going to say, he didn't think that Lin Daoqiu could bring up any difficult things even after a sum of $[-] million was settled.

"Mr. Lin, please tell me that this time, Chief Li has already told me to do my best to help you make this movie as soon as possible. No matter what request you have, you can ask it. I will find a way to help you solve it."

Zhang Jingyu didn't even think about it, because he didn't expect what kind of request Lin Daoqiu would make.

Talking about things with people like Zhang Jingyu is easy and simple, but it is also difficult to say, especially this kind of thing that is not easy to explain, sometimes it is indeed a bit embarrassing.

Lin Daoqiu wondered if Li Zhengnan sent Zhang Jingyu to talk to him, because he wanted to use this person to stop him from mentioning the TV station license.

"Director Zhang, to tell you the truth, Baodao and I have been cooperating for a long time. Whether it's TV dramas or movies, I think Baodao has a bright future, so I think..."

Zhang Jingyu was waiting for Lin Daoqiu to say what he wanted.

"Let's put it this way, I discussed this matter with Director Song before, and I believe that Chief Li probably knows something about it. I personally hope to have more development in Baodao in the future, so I want to open a TV station here."

Zhang Jingyu listened carefully to what Lin Daoqiu said, but after he heard the last sentence, Zhang Jingyu petrified again.

If it is unimaginable for Zhang Jingyu to make a movie with [-] million US dollars, then it is simply impossible for Lin Daoqiu to open a TV station in Baodao.

Originally thought that it would be easy to solve the budget of [-] million US dollars, but Zhang Jingyu felt that he was a little too naive.

If this matter was really so easy to handle, I'm afraid Song Yaolian has already settled it, and it won't be delayed until now.

"Mr. Lin...this...this me..."

Zhang Jingyu even started to stutter when he spoke.

"Okay, I'm not embarrassing Director Zhang, but I hope to have a clear answer to this matter. If there is a good result, then I will be very motivated."

Since Zhang Jingyu couldn't handle this matter, he naturally wouldn't give Lin Daoqiu any clear answer.

But before leaving, Zhang Jingyu hurriedly asked Lin Daoqiu what other demands he had.

Zhang Jingyu heaved a sigh of relief when he learned that this was the last request.

If Lin Daoqiu had any outrageous demands in the future, Zhang Jingyu would probably apply with Li Zhengnan to talk to Lin Daoqiu about these things with another person, so that he would not have to bear it on his behalf.

After talking with Lin Daoqiu, Zhang Jingyu came to Li Zhengnan's office again.

Li Zhengnan originally thought that Zhang Jingyu brought him the good news that the matter was settled this time.

When he asked his secretary to invite Zhang Jingyu in, Li Zhengnan suddenly noticed that Zhang Jingyu seemed a little afraid to look at him.

Li Zhengnan knew from the look of the other party that things might have changed again.

"What happened? Could it be that Lin Daoqiu raised the budget again?"

If this is the case, then Li Zhengnan might not give Lin Daoqiu any good looks.

After all, Lin Daoqiu had clearly promised [-] million U.S. dollars at the beginning, and if he suddenly increased the price suddenly, it would be a bit like taking advantage of the fire.

"No, Mr. Lin is very satisfied with the budget, it's just...just..."

Zhang Jingyu spoke intermittently, making Li Zhengnan more and more anxious.

"What happened, tell me everything."

After being told by Li Zhengnan, Zhang Jingyu could only tell Li Zhengnan about the process of going to see Lin Daoqiu to talk with him.

After Zhang Jingyu finished speaking, Li Zhengnan understood why the other party was so hard to say just now.

"Lin Daoqiu is really good at taking advantage of the fire. Is the license of the TV station just as he says? Hmph..."

Li Zhengnan snorted coldly, startling even Zhang Jingyu.

But then what surprised Zhang Jingyu was that Li Zhengnan did not continue to criticize Lin Daoqiu, but suddenly became silent.

Shangguan's mind is hard to guess, not to mention that Zhang Jingyu actually doesn't know Li Zhengnan well, and compared with Song Yaolian, the other party's original confidant, it is completely different.

But he was a man of vision, knowing that this was not the time for him to speak, so Zhang Jingyu just stood there obediently and said nothing.

After a few minutes, Li Zhengnan came back to his senses.

"Does Lin Daoqiu have any other requirements besides this one?"

"No, I've confirmed it again and again. Mr. Lin said that he only had one request in the end."

When Zhang Jingyu was speaking, he was suddenly startled, because he vaguely felt that Li Zhengnan was really considering whether to meet Lin Daoqiu's request.

You must know that there are only three TV stations in Treasure Island at this time, and it is not a trivial matter to issue a TV station license to Lin Daoqiu. This is already the last sensational headline in Treasure Island over the years.

"Go back and tell Lin Daoqiu that this matter is impossible now, but I can promise him that his request will definitely be fulfilled in due time."

That's all Li Zhengnan can say now, after all, he can't decide on this matter. ,
In addition, there are too many interests involved in this, once this opening is opened, it is unknown what kind of chaos will be caused.

So now Li Zhengnan can only use words to stabilize Lin Daoqiu and ask him to help make the movie first. As for the rest, let's talk about it later.

I just don't know if Lin Daoqiu will believe his promise, it depends on Lin Daoqiu's vision.

"Please rest assured, sir, I will truthfully convey your words to Mr. Lin. I believe he should be a person who understands the overall situation."

Li Zhengnan just thought it was funny when he said this. If Lin Daoqiu was really a person who understood the overall situation, he would not make such an outrageous request at this time, and he mentioned it twice.
