Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 747 Television License
"Although Mr. Lin said, as long as we can do it, we will do our best."

Song Yaolian was a little overjoyed. What he didn't expect was that the condition that Lin Daoqiu was about to raise next was a big headache for him.

"I hope that Baodao can issue me a license to start a TV station."

When Lin Daoqiu said this, not only Liao Xiangxiong was so frightened that he couldn't close his mouth, even Song Yaolian beside him was shocked.

The development of Taiwan TV Station first started in 1962, when Taiwan TV was established, which was the beginning of Taiwan TV, while China TV and China TV started broadcasting in 1969 and 1971.

Since then, the three stations have been standing together, and everyone is used to calling them the three stations.

It was not until 1993 that the authorities of Taiwan passed the "Cable Broadcasting and Satellite Broadcasting and Television Law", and at this time it was considered as a stronghold for the three generations.

It was only 1982, 11 years before the enactment of the Cable and Satellite Broadcasting Act.

Moreover, at this time, the atmosphere in Treasure Island is not very open. It is simply wishful thinking for Lin Daoqiu to get a TV station license in Treasure Island at this time.

Compared with the license of the TV station, Song Yaolian would rather give Lin Daoqiu a loan of [-] million US dollars than agree to issue the license of the TV station to him.

And this matter, even Li Zhengnan couldn't make a decision, let alone a small news bureau chief.

"Hehe... Mr. Lin really knows how to joke."

Song Yaolian didn't directly reject the other party, but it seemed that he didn't want to continue on this topic at all.

"Director Song, I'm not joking at all. I hope Baodao will seriously consider my request."

Song Yaolian originally thought that there would be no more interest-free loans of [-] million US dollars, which made him feel even more headache.

But only now did he realize that he might have underestimated Lin Daoqiu. This guy tried his best to think of something that left him speechless.

"Mr. Lin, I can tell you directly that we can't agree to this condition."

He didn't even think about being perfunctory, Song Yaolian just shook his head this time, rejecting Lin Daoqiu's second condition.

Song Yaolian's refusal was actually expected by Lin Daoqiu. If it was seven or eight years later, this matter might be resolved easily.

But now, if they want to open the TV station, it is just a dream. Obviously, Lin Daoqiu himself has never thought about it, and the other party will agree to this condition.

Originally, before this, Song Yaolian came here with confidence, but it is a pity that when he left in the end, he looked very preoccupied.

Song Yaolian was very annoyed that Lin Daoqiu could not be dealt with immediately.

But the conditions proposed by the other party, for him, he can directly refuse without even thinking about it.

"Director Song, why don't I try to find a way to do Mr. Lin's work so that he will stop mentioning these inexplicable conditions."

Liao Xiangxiong felt that he didn't play a big role at the dinner table today, so he challenged Song Yaolian especially on the way back.

Song Yaolian turned his head to look at Liao Xiangxiong, and then turned his head to the outside of the car.

If Liao Xiangxiong really has such a great ability, I'm afraid they don't need to worry about this matter now.

"I'm thinking about it."

Song Yaolian did not agree, because he already had doubts about Liao Xiangxiong's ability.

Liao Xiangxiong, who originally wanted to help the other party to solve the problem, felt his heart go cold when he heard Song Yaolian's words.

The purpose of Lin Daoqiu's trip is not only to meet Song Yaolian and others, but also to deal with another matter.

That was for the filming of "Mr. Zombie: The Ghost Bride" in Baodao.

The second day after Lin Daoqiu arrived, Lin Zhengying and Zhong Fa also rushed here with the crew.

Most of the actors in "Mr. Zombie's Ghost Bride" have inherited the previous play.

In addition to Zhong Chuhong, Xu Guanying, He Jiajin, Lou Nanguang, these are all solid lineups.

Because playing a female ghost has to seduce a man, Lin Daoqiu directly crossed out Zhong Chuhong's name from "Mr. Zombie's Ghost Bride".

Afterwards, Lin Zhengying and Zhong Fa came back to their senses and realized why Lin Daoqiu crossed out Zhong Chuhong's name.

If they had known at the time, they definitely would not have chosen Zhong Chuhong to play the female ghost.

Fortunately, Lin Zhengying found a suitable candidate in the shortest possible time.

The girl's name is Lin Yiwa. She has been an amateur singer since she was 13 years old. Because of her slender figure, she was discovered and went to the United States to work as a model. After returning to Taiwan, she developed into a popular singer.

Went to Hong Kong in 1974, and his first work was Shaw's "Peach Broker".

After being appreciated, she was appointed as the heroine in the international blockbuster "Fortune Shining" co-operated by Shaw Brothers and Italy.

Since then, she has been popular as a porn star. In 1978, she made a bold and revealing performance in "Pure Love".

Lin Zhengying asked Lin Yiwa to play this role because she liked that she didn't mind taking off her clothes in the movie.

When Lin Zhengying and the others got off the plane, they saw Lin Daoqiu standing outside waiting for them as soon as they got out of the airport.

"Mr. Lin..."

Lin Zhengying walked over with Zhong Fa and the leading actors.

No one expected that Lin Daoqiu would pick them up at the airport in person.

"It's been a hard journey, the hotel has been arranged, everyone go to rest first, Uncle Jiu and Ah Fa get into my car."

Lin Daoqiu had naturally spoken, and the others naturally had no objection to this.

After getting into the car, Lin Zhengying and Lin Daoqiu sat in the back row, while Zhong Fa ran to the co-pilot's seat.

"I've already contacted China Film Group. Tomorrow, you can bring the crew over there, check it out, and then start setting up the scene."

Although it has been decided to shoot in the China Film Cultural City, the specific location in it will have to wait for Lin Zhengying and the others to see it.

And when the time comes, they will have to build the scenes they need, and the preparation time will take at least a week.

"Thank you, Mr. Lin, if you hadn't arranged everything, we would have to start from scratch."

What Zhong Fa said was not wrong. If they were to arrange it themselves, it would probably take some time just to contact China Film, and it would probably take another two weeks for everything to be done.

"Everyone is their own person, so it's not a stranger to say these things."

Lin Daoqiu smiled and shook his hands. In fact, he just said a few words, and someone will arrange the rest.

After all, his current status is different from the past, and it is impossible for him to ask for help in person.

"Mr. Lin, don't worry, we will make this movie well."

Lin Zhengying didn't know what to say to thank Lin Daoqiu. What he could do was to make "Mr. Zombie: The Ghost Bride" well, so that he could live up to everything Lin Daoqiu had arranged for them.
