Year: I had a good time when I was young

Chapter 607: Obsessed and audacious

Chu Xiangqian offered to sell 10% of Bald Eagle Watch shares to Zheng Yutong and hired him as the general manager of the watch company.

Zheng Yutong only thought about it for one night before agreeing to work for Chu Xiangqian.

But even if he only sells 10% of the shares to him, Zheng Yutong cannot afford the principal of US$50 to purchase these shares now.

This also made Chu Xiangqian realize that the future super tycoons of Hong Kong Island are still minor players at this time.

But there is no doubt about the ability of these people.

If you drag Zheng Yutong on board, or become his backer and backer, you will make more money in the end.

Moreover, the future Hong Kong super tycoons will have to wait until after the stock market crash in the 70s to truly enter the real estate industry.

At that time, they had been in business for more than ten or twenty years and had created considerable wealth. At the same time, their main business was also facing a situation where it had reached its limit.

Only then did the energy shift to other industries.

By that time, Chu Xiangqian will definitely have more wealth. He will only take 30% or 20% of the shares and provide financial support. I believe Zheng Yutong will not refuse.

After thinking for a moment, Chu Qianqian simply let Wong Mao slip out of the ventilation duct, hid beside the sofa in the private room, and took a close-up photo of the two people with their faces touching each other.

Then he ordered Huang Miao to go back to the private room on the second floor to see if Philips and Taylor would say anything after the game.

Just keep an eye on her and you'll eventually find her date with Philips.

But in fact, Chu Xiangqian just wanted to confirm whether Philips had hooked up with Taylor.

Three days later, the premiere was held as scheduled.

With this little mink here, you can give it a tiny camera only three fingers wide and sneak into the place where Philips and Taylor are dating to secretly take pictures.

After mutual negotiation, Zheng Yutong privately spent 100 million Hong Kong dollars, or US$25, to buy 5% of the shares of Bald Eagle Watch.

After that, he took out some photos taken by the London gangster that had been secretly taken by the gang of powerful people and prostitutes.

The slight clicking sound still attracted Philips' attention, but fortunately the stingray hid after taking the photo.

Chu Xiangqian instantly realized that this woman must have gone on a tryst with Philips.

After confirming that Taylor spent the last twenty days in London except for returning to Hollywood for the final screening of the film, Chu Xiangqian knew immediately that this woman must have hooked up with Philips.

Only then did Chu Qianqian return to bed with satisfaction and sleep with Margaret in his arms.

A few minutes later, Chu stretched out his hand to touch his feet and put the miniature camera brought back by Ting Mao into his portable storage compartment, with a bright smile on his face.

Huang Miao, who was waiting in the Novice Village, suddenly appeared under his seat.

Philips looked around to make sure there was no one in the private room, and then he felt relieved and continued playing a friendly match with Taylor.

Chu Xiangqian himself flew directly to London to attend the premiere of Roman Holiday in London.

Her acting skills are much better than Hepburn's, and coupled with her ability to play Cleopatra, her temperament does look like a princess.

I chatted with Wrinkle Wai in the study for more than an hour, and after confirming that the premiere of Roman Holiday was fine, I asked a few hints.

However, although 5% of the shares can be awarded to him, these 5% of voting rights have always been in the hands of Chu Xiangqian.

After Margaret fell asleep from exhaustion, she went to the bathroom and then entered the Novice Village. She used equipment and potions to develop the photos and kept them in the Novice Village warehouse.

In other words, Chu Xiangqian holds 95% of the voting rights of Bald Eagle Company, and he has the final say.

When Little Diaoer ran to the private room on the second floor, he made sure that there were only Philips and Taylor inside, and the two of them had even hugged each other and kissed passionately.

Wrinkle Huai was so smart that he quickly guessed that what his boss wanted to ask about was Taylor's recent itinerary.

Fortunately, this is a movie theater. Every time there is a loud noise during the movie, Chu Xiangqian controls the stingray to take pictures, and the two wild mandarin ducks are busy communicating with each other. The slight click of the camera is heard.

Until he holds a total of 10% of the upper limit, he can take the initiative to resign from the position of general manager of the watch company.

The tits immediately started staring at Taylor, who was staying at the hotel, around the clock.

Then Chu moved forward and saw the woman going upstairs and entering a private room on the second floor to watch Roman Holiday.

But after arriving in London, Chu Xiangqian and Margaret, who came to pick him up, went home for dinner, and played a friendly match with this girl in the evening, during which he secretly took a dozen photos with a miniature camera.

The remaining 5% of the shares will be transferred to him in batches in a reward model after the watch company develops to a certain height.

After Chu Xiangqian and Zheng Yutong signed the contract at the law firm, the two spent two days talking and explaining to each other on Hong Kong Island. Then they allowed Zheng Yutong to set up a company team in Hong Kong Island and then flew to the island country to start promotion and sales affairs.

As long as you have evidence or even photos of the two of them hooking up, it will definitely be more useful than taking a few nude photos of Margaret.

However, due to the weak light in the private room, Chu Xiangqian also speculated that the photo might appear blurry due to insufficient exposure.

Zheng Yutong is basically working for Chu Xiangqian.

After all, we have been together for more than a year, and we are more or less in love.

And unless absolutely necessary, Chu Xiangqian was not willing to threaten the people of Yingguo with Margaret's nude photos.

Chu Xiangqian then smiled and used his mind to make Wing Mao run back, take away the miniature camera, and hid in the ventilation duct of the private room on the second floor to take pictures of the two people who had lost their clothes.

Early the next morning, after breakfast, I heard from Butler Hawkins that Wrinkle's Arms had arrived.

Moreover, during the days when she and Zheng Yutong were discussing the watch company in Hong Kong Island, Ti Que had already flown to Tianzhu, took Wing Mao to the airport, found a plane to Hong Kong Island, slipped on it, and returned to Chu Xiangqian.

What Chu Xiangqian didn't expect was that after only 10 minutes of playing the movie, Taylor excused himself from feeling unwell and left the screening room.

This is much safer than Chu Qianqian going there in person.

When Chu Xiangqian brought Margaret to the venue to watch, he felt that Taylor's acting skills were indeed worthy of winning the Oscar for Best Actress twice and would win the Best Actress five times in the future.

If there are revelations during the conversation, there might be a surprise.

As expected by Chu Xiangqian, since Taylor is a famous jewelry maniac in Hollywood, and since he is hooked up with Philips, he will not let go of the precious jewelry kept by the royal family.

If Philips hadn't still had his sense, he might even have quietly stolen the Guangming Mountain diamond and put it on Taylor's head for her to play with for a few days.

But the diamond necklace Philips promised to give to Taylor gave Chu Xiangqian a sudden new idea.

If Philips is photographed wearing jewelry registered with the royal family on Taylor, this matter may be more serious than Philips messing around outside.

In the next few days, Sing Mao followed Taylor, and as expected, Philips actually gave her a set of jewelry worth tens of thousands of pounds in order to please Taylor. Converted into U.S. dollars, it costs more than ten or two hundred thousand, which is enough to buy a large building in London.

It seems that the price of pursuing female celebrities is indeed not small.

Chu Qianqian shook his head helplessly, and his mind quickly focused on the newly taken photos.

After developing it, after looking at the jewelry in the photos for a while, Chu Xiangqian secretly thought that if these photos were reported by the media, it would 100% shake the status of the royal family in the hearts of the people.

And then shake the foundation of the royal family.

Chu Qianqian nodded with satisfaction,——

After the Roman Holiday played in the evening, at least 8% of the guests present stood up and applauded.

Many people were snickering when they looked at Margaret.

Without even guessing, many people can tell that the rebellious princess in the movie is very similar to Margaret in real life.

Even in the ending, the princess finally returns after a day and two nights of mischief outside, and separates from the hero, vaguely hinting at Margaret's experience of falling in love with her first love, and finally having to compromise due to pressure from public opinion.

As for those die-hards who feel that this movie is alluding to the royal family and trying to discredit the royal family, Chu Xiangqian doesn't care at all.

Anyway, the fact that both Margaret and Philips came to watch the premiere shows that the film has been approved by the royal family.

And before it was released, the royal family did send someone to watch it in advance. Although it was indeed a bit metaphorical, fortunately, the princess was not together with the main photographer in the movie in the end.

In addition, in the movie, the princess only has a kiss with the photographer actor, and there is no other intimate action.

Compared to the real Margaret, it can be said that it pales into insignificance.

After asking Elizabeth and Margaret themselves, Margaret herself said she didn't care.

Moreover, when the script was first formed, Chu Xiangqian asked for her opinion, and the review was quickly over.

Of course, this is also because Chu Xiangqian has an excellent relationship with the royal family. In addition, the princess in the movie is the prototype. Even Margaret said it was her. So if this movie wants to be released in the Ying Kingdom, it is natural to ask the royal family first. OK.

After Chu Xiangqian and Margaret saw off tonight's guests, they chatted with Wrinkle Huai and Universal's managers.

Chu Xiangqian is naturally very optimistic about the box office prospects of this movie. When Hepburn made this movie in his previous life, he was just a little-known minor character.

But even so, the global box office still exceeded US$1200 million, and it was still US$50 million in the 1200s.

Now that the heroine is replaced by Taylor, who has won the Oscar for Best Actress twice, she is more famous and has more materials for promotion. Chu Xiangqian is confident that the box office can exceed 3 million in Magnesia alone. Dollar.

If the box office expectations are as predicted by Chu Xiangqian, then this medium-invested movie with an estimated investment of US$300 million will already be considered a huge profit for the Magnesium Country alone.

With a box office of over RMB 3 million, the movie’s revenue from the video tape market may double or triple in the future.

Unfortunately, the first practical video recorder was not invented until 54. Today's video recorders are still expensive machines that are practical only in professional fields.

The first home video recorder had to wait until 76, and Chu Xiangqian quickly gave up on the video tape market.

Instead, focus on posters, toys, photos, dolls and other peripheral products with Princess Taylor's image.

Once Taylor's dolls are welcomed by the market, they can imitate Barbie dolls and even replace Barbie dolls to become the childhood memories of young girls in the United States.

If this thing is managed well, maybe it can be like Barbie and create a super cash cow company that sells hundreds of thousands or millions of dolls every year.

And Barbie dolls in this era were not cheap. I remember correctly, Chu Xiangqian saw a doll costing 2.5 pounds when he was in London.

Chu Xiangqian told the people at Universal and Taylor about making the princess doll.

Everyone's eyes lit up.

And Taylor agreed with both hands and feet.

Although it was already written in the contract for Roman Holiday that Universal could use her character's image in the movie for free.

In other words, the copyright of the princess version of Taylor belongs to Universal.

In the future, if she wants to make a movie with a princess image again, she will have to get authorization from Universal.

But Taylor is not stupid. The little doll promoted in his own image is equivalent to advertising for himself.

He even cultivates movie fans for himself among young girls all the time every year.

The only trouble is that once negative news about Taylor's public image appears, the impact on the sales of the princess doll is likely to be fatal.

But now, relying on the popularity of the movie and Taylor's own status as a two-time Oscar winner for Best Actress, the princess doll has been withdrawn, and there is a high probability that it will be more popular with ordinary people than the Barbie doll that only appeared in 59.

Chu Xiangqian immediately called Mike Hellman, the general manager of Universal in Hollywood. In the end, Mike also heard Chu Xiangqian say that if the dolls were produced on Hong Kong Island, even with transportation fees, the total cost would be less than Production in magnesium countries is at least 3% lower.

But in fact, if these dolls were produced in China, the cost might be only one-third or even one-quarter of what they are in Magnesia.

However, after Chu Xiangqian thought about this matter, he finally decided to give birth on Hong Kong Island.

The biggest problem is that the global production of plastics these days is only tens of thousands, no more than 10 tons at most.

Europe and the United States have some shortages of their own, and it is delusional to want to give some of it to China.

Hong Kong Island does not have this kind of trouble, otherwise it would not have become one of the global toy production bases in the late 60s and early 70s.

Of course, Chu Xiangqian could collect rubber from Novice Village himself. Using it to produce princess dolls could hide the demand, and it was also more profitable than selling rubber pellets directly.

If another toy production factory is established on Hong Kong Island, it may become a giant in the toy industry in the future.

Chu Xiangqian told a few words about Wrinkle's Pregnancy, and the next day he handed over all the things to be released to the people at Universal, and he flew to Los Angeles with Cooper's legal team.

After receiving the production authorization from Universal, Wrinkle-Huai rested every weekend and flew back to Hong Kong Island again.

Although the contract with Universal is very strict in terms of toy quality, style and other details, the price is only US$2.4 for a high-quality doll.

No need to guess, you also know that Universal is using Barbie dolls for comparison.

Barbie, which was only unveiled at the China International Toy Fair the year before last, was warmly welcomed by the market as soon as it appeared.

In other words, he was welcomed by the little girl from Magnesia.
