    "Girl, when will your sister and Ning Ning come back?" "My sister didn't say." Tianbao winked and made a face, then while Aunt Liu turned around, he quietly leaned forward and took away the dish placed in front of Shen Chong.  Said: "Sister Ningning said it will probably be until the end of the month." "Why does it take so long?" Aunt Liu picked up the bowl, gave Li Tang soup, and complained: "The conditions in Shenzhen are not good, and I always run outside in the hot weather, waiting.  She must be tanned and thin when she comes back. "Yuan Yuan is young, so what's wrong with it?" Li Tang was a little presbyopic. He sat sideways at the dining table and held the newspaper far away.  , while looking at it, he said: "She has much better conditions now than we did at that time. The company has air conditioning and she has a private car when she goes out. What are you worried about?" "The conditions are good because your daughter is more capable than you. Back then, you and I  When we got married, there were air conditioners on the market. Can you afford it? You can't even afford a broken fan." Aunt Liu quarreled with him, and then said: "She is now a director of Jardine Matheson, and she has to work regularly.  She's so tanned and thin, why don't you go out to meet people? Stop reading, Ah Chong, come and have a bowl of soup first." Shen Chong put away the magazine spread on the dining table and took the bowl full of soup.  , Hehe said with a smile: "I'll go to Shenzhen in two days to have a look. If I'm not busy with work, I'll bring Yuanyuan back." "I'm going too." "You have to film a TV series, so you don't have time to run around." Shen  Chong used a spoon to drink some Tianbao and said, "Do you know what the first commandment of being a big star is?" "What is it?" "You can't help yourself." Shen Chong took a sip of the soup and said, "You have to listen to the boss.  Listen to the director, listen to the agent, listen to the media reporters. In short, except for eating and sleeping, the rest of the time is not yours. " "I am not a big star now, so Teacher Gan asked me to play a small role." "  It's even worse if you're not a big star. In addition to listening to the people I just mentioned, you also need to listen to the assistant director, the screenwriter, the stage manager, the leading star, and the supporting actors.  If you are a minor character who is older than you, in short, even the time to eat and sleep is not yours. " Tianbao was struggling between filming TV and going out to play. He looked at Shen Chong with suspicion and said, "I don't believe it.  Brother-in-law, you lied to me again. " "If you don't believe me, just go and try." Shen Chong snickered and said, "If you don't believe me, just ask dad. He has been in the film studio for so many years and knows more than me. I will lie to you.  Dad won't lie to you." When Tianbao was born, the Great Wall Film Studio had come to a standstill, and the Li family had moved to Guantang, so she didn't understand movies as well as Li Kaiyuan, so she tilted her head and asked Li Tang: "  Dad, is what my brother-in-law said true? " "It's true," Li Tang said in a sullen voice, "Acting is very hard. You don't want to go to H. You just study at home." "I don't want to."  Tianbao has reached the rebellious stage of youth, and subconsciously resists the authority of his parents, arguing: "Sister IvIa is also a big star, so she doesn't have to listen to others and can do whatever she wants.  Shen Chong took a peek and found that Li Tang and Aunt Liu looked calm and had no reaction to Tianbao's words. He felt relieved and said, "When you go to H and try it, you will know whether it is hard or not." Then he changed the topic and asked  Aunt Liu: "Mom, how is the business in the store lately?" "Since the weather has gotten hotter, there have been a lot less customers." Aunt Liu is devoted to the hot pot restaurant. After more than a year of operation, she is no longer Wu Xia Amon.  , she stopped her chopsticks and said: "Hot pot is still too simple. I plan to diversify my business. Ahe's dumplings are well made and very popular. Some customers even bought some to cook and eat after finishing the hot pot.  , asking people to make dumplings manually is too inefficient, costly, and unhygienic. I was wondering if I could use a machine to make more dumplings and sell them separately. Do you think this is a good idea, Zang?  My sister's dumplings do taste good and could be made bigger.  Shen Chong agreed and said, "Mom, how about you open a branch in Yu Jian and build a fast food factory specializing in dumplings?"  " Aunt Liu still maintained a cautious attitude. She hesitated when she heard this and said, "I just want to make some dumplings to sell in the store. I don't want to set up a factory.  " However, she had made a lot of money in the past year, and she was getting more confident. She trusted Shen Chong again and asked, "Ah Chong, how much would it cost to build a factory?  " "It doesn't cost much."  Shen Chong did not research on this and said: "Japan is very famous for its food machinery. I know a lot of people there. Why don't you go and find out first?"  " "Then you go and ask around. If it's not expensive, I'll open a factory and try it.  " Tianbao rolled his eyes and said, "Mom, do your best, and then like my sister, you can also set up a listed company. Then I will have a mother who is a listed company, and a sister who is a listed company, and I can do whatever I want.  "Why?" The whole audience laughed, and Li Tang said a rare joke: "Your mother and your sister are not chicken, fish, meat and eggs, so why are they on the market?"  ¡±  "Damn old man" Aunt Liu patted him gently, and then said to Tianbao with a smile: "Even if your sister and I go public ten times, we will still be of no use to your brother-in-law. If you want to do whatever you want, please do it as soon as possible."  "Listen carefully to what he says." "Brother-in-law, come and eat a piece of bergamot ribs." Tianbao served Shen Chong the food diligently and said, "Brother-in-law, I am your butt, so you must take good care of me from now on." Shen Chong endured it.  Forbearance, but still couldn't hold it back, he laughed so much that the food in his mouth spurted out After dinner, Li Tang invited Shen Chong to his study, then took out an invitation and said: "Ah Chong, the Great Wall and  The Phoenix merger is done, and the new company plans to be officially listed on August 1. This is a post asking you to cut the ribbon. "It's finally completed, the efficiency is really low" Shen Chong took it and opened it, and saw the above.  The signature was "Hong Kong United Pictures Co., Ltd.", so he asked: "Are you going to use the Great Wall and Phoenix brands?" "No need." Li Tang sat at the desk, put on his reading glasses and said, "Just  We argued for more than ten days about which name to use for the new company, and finally decided to use a new name. " Shen Chong shook his head secretly, saying that he didn't want the golden signboard for decades. The brand awareness was too weak. Last year in Beijing, Shen Chong once said.  He participated in the merger plan of Great Wall and Phoenix, but he only made some general suggestions. As for the specific matters, he did not participate in them. He maintained an attitude of paying attention but never intervening. As both of them were state-owned film companies, he intervened rashly.  , it is easy to touch the sensitive nerves of the mainland. Secondly, although the two companies are half-dead, they have a long history, complex internal personnel relations, and each has its own little calculations. If you get involved, you will not get much benefit, but it will easily cause a scandal.  "Then who will be the general manager, Fu Qi or Chen Jingbo?" "No, it's Wu Zhaodi from the mainland. Fu Qi and Chen Jingbo are the deputy general managers." Shen Chong was surprised, but he was not surprised that Fu Qi and Chen Jingbo failed to become the general manager.  General Manager, but was surprised that it was Wu Zhaodi who parachuted to Hong Kong to be the CEO of a new film company.  Unlike last year when he was blind in Beijing, Shen Chong now knows all the information about mainland filmmakers. Wu Zhaodi has a good family background. His parents are scholars living in the United States. He was born in Pittsburgh and returned to China when he was five years old. He filmed "  "Sisters on Ice", "Guerrillas on the Plains", "Heroes" and other classic red movies, after buzzing, he served as the leader of the film review team. He is proficient in business, strong in politics, and proficient in English. He is a super heavyweight  figure.  It seems that after his hard work, the mainland has taken the Hong Kong film market much more seriously than in previous generations.
