Chapter 519 Shaw's Faces Suspension of Production
After Ye Jingcheng and Wang Jing separated, Wang Jing returned home directly. The first thing he had to do was not to familiarize himself with the script in his hand, but to implement Ye Jingcheng's statement that Shaw Brothers might stop production.

At this time, Wang Tianlin was sitting on the sofa in the living room and reading the newspaper. With Shaw's gradually reducing production in the past two years, the work that fell to him was also much less.In addition, his own vision has become outdated, and there is nothing for him to do.

So he becomes idle most of the time, it can be said that he lives a leisurely life, or it can be said that he has nothing to do.Today, you can only watch newspapers and TV at home.

"Old Dou." Seeing Wang's son Jing returning home, Wang Tianlin just glanced at him, and then continued to read his newspaper.

Just as Wang Jing walked through the living room, her footsteps paused for a while before turning back, and finally sat opposite Wang Tianlin.

"Old man, hey..." Wang Jing tried to organize his words, but he really couldn't express it tactfully, so he kept hesitating: "I want to ask...that..."

Regarding his son's hesitation, Wang Tianlin expressed annoyance and said, "Just ask what you want to ask."

Hearing this, Wang Jing immediately corrected her sitting posture, buried her head slightly and said, "That's...have you received any news recently?
"What news?" Wang Tianlin frowned.

As a father, Wang Tianlin is well aware of his son's character.The more hesitant you are, the more likely you are to encounter bigger problems.

"That's right..." Wang Jing said "tsk tsk" twice, without any intention of embellishing the language, and simply asked: "I heard that Shaw might stop production."

"Where did you get the news?" Wang Tianlin couldn't help but become serious, and his tone became more serious.

"I heard from my friend." Wang Jing tried to fool me.

Wang Tianlin didn't answer his question directly, but judging from the other party's reaction, this matter was basically implemented, but he didn't know when.

Wang Jing couldn't help thinking about it, and secretly thought that Ye Jingcheng was right when he said that Shao Yifu was an old fox. Shao Yifu did this matter so secretly, and there might be some interests in it.

Seeing Wang Jing's eyeballs rolling around, Wang Tianlin knew he had other thoughts.The most important thing is that Shaw's discontinued production, who told him?
You must know that Shao Yifu only mentioned this matter to him a little bit, and the specific way to do it is still a preconceived plan. Since no deployment has been made yet, how could the news spread so quickly.

But after thinking about it carefully, Wang Tianlin understood it clearly.It seems that only people with a background like Ye Jingcheng are qualified to investigate Shao Yifu.

"Sixth brother... he really has this idea." Knowing that there is no way to hide this matter, Wang Tianlin sighed and slowly explained the whole thing.

Wang Jing still knew a lot about Shao's situation.

Therefore, without Wang Tianlin's further explanation, he came to a conclusion that the Shaw Brothers could not make ends meet.Coupled with the current economic environment on Hong Kong Island, firstly affected by Sino-British relations, and then impacted by the stock market and real estate, the market has become very bumpy.

Even for Ye Jingcheng's Nanguo Cinemas, the daily turnover has dropped by at least [-]%.What's more, regardless of the theater itself, or Shaw Brothers, whose production of films is outdated, the turnover has plummeted to [-]%.

Compared with other theaters, Shaw's business is not good, let alone a [-]% drop in turnover.Occasionally produced high-quality film sources are just to see the daily expenditure.

With such a double blow, Rao Dao, who single-handedly promoted the development of TV and film industry in Hong Kong Island, once felt powerless because of his old age, which also made him deepen his idea of ​​suspending production of Shaw Brothers.

"Old Dou, Brother Cheng invited me to have afternoon tea just now." Wang Jing glanced at Wang Tianlin, as if to express something in his words.

It's just that he didn't expect that Wang Tianlin replied "Oh" lightly, without even the slightest intention to understand.

"Old Dou, why don't you ask Brother Cheng what he wants me for?" Wang Jing said without confidence.

After all, Wang Tianlin had been tying him to the Shaw Brothers before, simply because he didn't want him to join Ye Jingcheng.Now that Shaw Brothers is going to stop production, it is tantamount to saying that they still have to choose to join Ye Jingcheng in the end.

In fact, when Wang Jing walked in just now, Wang Tianlin's glance was not at him, but at the script he was holding in his hand.Shaw Brothers has recently put into production several films for the summer vacation, but Wang Tianlin doesn't remember anything about Wang Jing.

In addition to Wang Jing's mention of Ye Jingcheng, the source of this script is ready to be revealed.Wang Tianlin stopped Wang Jing who was about to explain, and said, "Don't tell me these things, I don't know and don't want to know."

After finishing speaking, Wang Tianlin went back to the room leaning on crutches, as if he really didn't care about this matter.

Forehead!
Wang Jing, who was still in place, was stunned, but Wang Tianlin didn't scold him loudly, which made him feel a bit inconceivable.

But soon, he understood Wang Tianlin's thoughts.

First of all, his father is indeed paranoid in character, but it does not mean that he is always stubborn.He said that he didn't know and didn't want to know about it. In fact, he said that he would not care about how Wang Jing handled it. Such a statement was already relaxing Wang Jing.

After all, he also tied Wang Jing for two or three years, and this son always needs to develop on his own.Coupled with Shao Yifu's expectation of Shaw's discontinuation of production, no matter how stupid he is, he can't make fun of his son's future, right?
In fact, he also looked at Shao Yifu's kindness to their family.Otherwise, even if Shaw Brothers does not stop production at this time, he has already had the idea of ​​relaxing Wang Jing during this period.

Kindness is not everything, just like Shao Yifu who called him a brother on the one hand, and allowed Fang Yihua to oppress them, the old courtiers on the other, sometimes it really disgusts him that he can't justify it.

Therefore, it is enough for this kindness to lock him alone, and there is no need to go to the point of repaying the father's debt.

……

At this time, the studio where the "Oriental Daily" newspaper office is located.

A group of menacing people surrounded the door, and passers-by took a look at them, and they all knew that they were not good citizens, and it was likely that some society was preparing to make trouble.

But having said that, the newspapers of newspapers often expose some things, causing some people whose interests have been harmed to choose revenge.But this role was switched to the "Oriental Daily", the person who works on the same floor of the building.It seems that no one has ever seen anyone who can take revenge.

All because behind the "Oriental Daily" stood the two brothers of the "big and big horses" who used to be the four major families.Although the two brothers were in previous years.In order to escape the pursuit of the police, he absconded to the Bay Area.

But their legitimate careers continued to thrive in Hong Kong and around the world, including Hong Kong's Oriental Daily News.

It is said to be a legitimate business, but in fact it contains an illegal relationship.This is also one of the reasons why the "Oriental Daily" newspaper dares to be so tough and "defy power".
