"Inadequate success, more failure than failure" As soon as Shen Chong walked out of the room, Li Guoding grabbed the folder full of negative news about Oriental Charm, threw it hard, and the papers fell to the floor. Seeing that he was filled with anger, blowing his beard and staring, Huang Renzhong was afraid of something happening, so he quickly advised: "Uncle Li, don't get angry yet, Shen Chong just wants to take advantage of the opportunity, otherwise he will not take the initiative to visit you." ( Note) "You think I don't know?" Li Guoding snorted, tapped the coffee table with his fingers, and reprimanded sternly: "Shen Chong said it nicely. Wages in the mainland are cheap. Cheap is cheap, but the infrastructure in the mainland is a mess. Even basic Water, electricity and transportation cannot be guaranteed. How to build a factory? Taiwan requires people and land. The biggest advantage is that the supply of game consoles exceeds demand. If the factory is built one day late, a lot of profits will be lost. This was originally the biggest bargaining chip for us in negotiations, but now it is better. , it¡¯s all because of that bastard Wang Sheng who messed up politics. He knows all day long that engaging in politics will destroy the economy. What the hell is there to do with politics?¡± When gods fight, mortals suffer. Wang Sheng is very popular in Taiwan, and his political work is Huang Renzhong did not dare to mention what Jiang Jingguo always talked about. He squatted down and picked up the documents scattered on the carpet one by one. After Li Guoding was sulky for a while, he asked: "Ren Zhong, I heard that you and Shen Chong have a good relationship. Can you tell me what he meant by what he said just now?" "Shen Chong is very deep in the city. He can't slip. It's very difficult to keep it, and I don't know what he is thinking." Huang Renzhong first clarified a few words, and then carefully analyzed each sentence: "The film branch he opened in Taiwan has been constantly being harassed, and there may be some false accusations. It doesn't matter if the film company's small business of several million Hong Kong dollars is tampered with, but this is a big deal of 1 billion US dollars. If it is tampered with again after the investment, the losses will be huge. Shen Chong may want a safety net. , After all, he is from Hong Kong and has no foundation in Taiwan. Wei Jingmeng is a cultural person and does not understand economics. Besides, he has been retired for several years and has no successors. He cannot support Shen Chong's plate. " "You are very smart, no. It's a pity to pick up your dad from work." Li Guoding sighed, picked up the tea cup, took a sip of half-cooled tea, and said, "I looked down on this Shen Chong before, thinking he was just a domineering young man. I think that he is young, but his methods are very sophisticated. You see, in the Mainland, he opens factories when he is told to open factories, and builds buildings when he is told to build buildings. He never drags his feet, but in Taiwan, he only fights a few times, and then Why? Because he spread money widely in the mainland and bought many senior officials in Beijing. He has already established contacts and connections. But what about our Taiwanese bureaucracy? How can you let him invest with peace of mind?" Seeing his anger rising again, Huang Renzhong quickly changed the topic and asked: "Uncle Li, how do you think we can bring this situation back?" "It's difficult in China. , They talk about the law, we talk about favors, but the exchange of favors cannot be settled by agreement." Li Guoding sighed, pondered for a moment, and said: "This matter has something to do with Wang Sheng, and my face is probably not worth it. Get the phone, I'll call Dean Sun and ask him to talk to the president. "You want the president to come to Hong Kong?" "What nonsense can Shen Chong do?" Li Guoding took the call. He took the opportunity and said: "Shen Chong is going to Taiwan on the weekend. Let the president entertain him at Qihai Residence and give him reassurance. As long as the president speaks, no one in Taiwan will dare to cause trouble again." Shen Chong has two cars in Hong Kong. The car, a Jaguar XI, is the same as the one used by Margaret Thatcher. It is a customized bulletproof official car. It is heavy and comfortable, but not fun to drive. It is only used as a tool for commuting to and from get off work or attending events. A Lamborghini, occasionally I went out for a drive, got addicted to sports cars, and enjoyed driving. Later, I was reminded by Zhang Aijia that it was too conspicuous, and Hong Kong was crowded, so I couldn't drive, so I shipped it to the United States, and then bought a Porsche 9ll. This is a very classic mass-produced sports car, very common on the streets of Hong Kong and not so eye-catching. This time he came to visit Li Guoding and drove a 9lI. After getting into the car, Zhang Aijia put on her seat belt and asked: "What are the so-called killing sticks you just mentioned?" "Which ones?" "What are you interested in? Making money is just a casual thing. Oriental Charm is not doing well in Taiwan, so I don't want to invest in it. " "That's not a killing stick, but the truth." Shen Chong started the car, then turned around and looked at it. She said with a smile: "What, you don't believe it?" "Of course I don't believe it, not only I don't believe it, but anyone with a normal IQ will not believe it." Zhang Aijia curled her lips and said disdainfully: "How much money can you make by making movies in Taiwan? ? You are just worried that after making a large investment, you will encounter the same trouble as Dongfang Charming. " "Then you are wrong. What I just said was from the bottom of my heart." Shen Chong drove out of the parking lot and said. It's hard to buy a good heart. I just like things that others don't like. So what if Taiwan has a lot of money and a lot of money? I just like to make movies, just like Taiwan's charming people.There are many beautiful women, but I just like you, right? " "Isn't this guy pretty to me? " "Beautiful, as beautiful as a fairy. After Shen Chong finished speaking, he added a flirtatious sentence: "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder." " "Is it beautiful or not? " "Beautiful, but no matter how beautiful you are, you are only one person. I gave up the entire forest for a flower. Do you think it is a loss or not? " "Thanks to your size, you know that I'm not pretty, but you always talk nonsense to make me angry" Zhang Aijia played with him for a while, and then asked: "Then what did you mean by those words you just said? " "Actually, it's nothing. I just want a guarantee. Shen Chong turned his head slightly, glanced at the Golden Gate Tower not far away through the car window, then continued driving and said, "Do you know what the first thing the gangsters do when they rob?" " "What? " "Hey, you are a bit interesting, can you take a guess? " "Get a knife? " "Okay, the first thing is to get the knife, and then what? " "Then we started grabbing. " "Wrong, before robbing, the gangster will say: Shut up." Shen Chong made a threatening gesture and explained: "The victim cannot scream, so the gangster dares to rob with confidence. Zhang Aijia's eyes moved slightly and asked: "You mean the movie is your mouth?" " "Movies are my lips, TV stations are my teeth, and print media are my tongue. With them, I dare to invest and make money everywhere. Shen Chong opened his mouth, stuck out his tongue, and said viciously: "Whoever dares to rob me, I will scream and bite. Even if I can't scare away the robbers, I can at least bite them until they are covered in blood." " "It's ugly and disgusting. Shut up." Zhang Aijia smiled and patted him. After a while, she asked: "You don't trust the Taiwan government?" " "When the gangsters are robbing, the police are always on the other side of the mountain. It is better to believe in them than to believe in yourself. Shen Chong shook his head and said: "I can't just throw 1 billion US dollars into Taiwan because of the guarantee of Li Guoding or Sun Yunxuan or President Chiang Kai-shek. You have to know that even if you go to the bank to deposit 10 yuan, you have to set it up yourself." A password is used as insurance. " "Taiwanese movies are very weak, so I'm afraid they can't be used as insurance, right? " Shen Chong gnashed his teeth, made a "gurgle" sound, and said, "My lips are dead and my teeth are cold. " "Oh" Zhang Aijia suddenly realized, and said with a half-smile: "So you and my grandpa have been planning to open a TV station in Taiwan? " "clever. " "How can you, a Hong Konger, go to Taiwan to open a TV station? I haven't heard that Taiwan allows foreign investment to open TV stations. " "Don't I have you? "Shen Chong turned the steering wheel, climbed onto the viaduct, and said in a calm tone: "Become a shareholder. " Zhang Aijia was extremely surprised. She raised her brows and widened her eyes. "What? Not willing? " "Aren't you afraid that I will sell you? TV stations are worth a lot of money. "Zhang Aijia looked hesitant, drew a circle with her finger, and reminded: "And there is no legal relationship between us. " "You have to be wary even of your own women. What's the point of living? Shen Chong smiled slightly and said sarcastically: "I have said this to CaIu before, and I am telling you the same thing now. If you sell me, it must be because I did something bad myself, and I don't blame you." " Zhang Aijia looked at him blankly. After a while, she gritted her teeth and swore: "You are the most shameless man in the world. One day I will sell you for nothing." "Then you have to work hard. . Shen Chong shrugged and said, "Because you may not be able to sell it as fast as I can make it." " "Bragging. " "If you don't believe me, try it. " "What are you trying to do? I'm just a puppet. How can I sell your stuff?" " "Who said you are a puppet? " "Then what am I? " "You are a vase, and you are the kind with mediocre looks. " "Go to hell" Note: In Taiwan in the 1980s and 1990s, the Kuomintang had the term "Eight Elders", referring to Huang Shaogu, Xie Dongmin, Ni Wenya, Li Guoding, Jiang Yanshi, Yuan Shouqian, Ku Zhenfu and Chen Lifu, among whom Chen Lifu was the oldest. , followed by Huang Shaogu. These eight people have great power and influence in Taiwan. Even Chiang Ching-kuo has to give in three points.
