Time flies, and the years are like a shuttle. Such words can be said to be appropriate to describe Li Mingbao's current living conditions. Li Mingbao still remembered that the conversation between him and Uncle Six had not been long in the past, but a week had passed in the blink of an eye, and the industry conference they held was about to officially begin. This industry conference can basically be said to cover film companies from all East Asian countries and regions, except of course the mainland. Although Li Mingbao sent an invitation letter to the film studio in mainland China, because the censorship and other matters there are now extremely strict, and the film industry's funds are not generous enough, the film studio there is basically alone. They didn't send them over, but directly involved left-wing filmmakers from Hong Kong, which also saved review and funding. To put it simply, it was stingy. Of course, the current situation on the mainland does not allow people from film studios to come over. There is no such fee. In addition, they really don¡¯t have much interest in using celebrities to make money. In their words, art They all serve the people and cannot be measured by money. If you really want to participate in such a rally, then under the domestic conditions, it is not appropriate to pay, and it is also inappropriate not to pay. So this kind of thing simply does not comply with the relevant regulations of the mainland. Why should actors be superior to others? Isn't this an artificial factor that creates disharmony? Therefore, people from the mainland can send people from Hong Kong to take a look, which is to give Li Mingbao face. It is simply delusional to want them to directly participate in such a thing. ¡°Well, if people from the mainland don¡¯t come, Li Mingbao doesn¡¯t feel too embarrassed. The current film situation in mainland China is already not good, and there is no even the most basic market for them to participate. Li Mingbao doesn't know how to arrange it. After all, his actions are, to put it bluntly, a capital operation. How can the mainland accept these things now? ¡°Similarly, the mainland did not send anyone over, they just asked left-wing filmmakers from Hong Kong to do it for them. This is also good news for the film companies in Taiwan. Taiwan and the mainland are not very easy to deal with, and it is not a matter of one or two days. Although relations have eased in recent years, there is no guarantee that Taiwan¡¯s film management agencies will also intend to expand their authority. If people from the mainland come directly, it will be difficult for those film companies to explain, but they are only left-wing filmmakers. Well, with the banner of Lee Ming-pao and the banner of film colleagues throughout East Asia, Taiwanese filmmakers don¡¯t have to be so afraid. Even if something goes wrong, everyone will have room to blame. Of course, in addition to the conflicts between the mainland and Taiwan, there are also conflicts of various sizes in other regions, and political problems are still serious. Fortunately, the meeting convened by Li Mingbao has nothing to do with politics. It is just a matter of capital, so everyone's political fears are not outrageous. In addition to these, there are conflicts between some film companies. Li Mingbao and the others can't control such conflicts. As long as they can't pass the line, it doesn't matter what they do. Li Mingbao wants everyone to come over to make money, not to let everyone come over to solve it. The problem is, if you have a conflict, as long as it does not affect the progress of the meeting, people in Hong Kong will not talk too much. The meeting officially started at two o¡¯clock in the afternoon, but the real time for bank-wide contact was at the industry luncheon at noon. As for this luncheon, the people here in Hong Kong have to pay for it out of their own pockets. Fortunately, the stingy character of Uncle Liu and the others played a positive role in this matter. The hotel hosting the luncheon directly gave Li Mingbao and the others a very low discount due to their recent income from the film industry. Compared with the cost, The price is even lower, allowing Uncle Liu and the others to save a lot of money. At the beginning of the banquet, Li Mingbao first delivered a speech, explaining what kind of effect everyone wanted to achieve at this meeting, and then what kind of positive effect such effect would have on promoting the industry. Due to time constraints, Li Mingbao couldn't make a long speech, he just said some general things. As for these things, when the personnel of those companies came to Hong Kong, they received a detailed document, which was not anything new. But Li Mingbao said this personally, which can be regarded as setting a tone for this meeting. In addition, things like this have great benefits for the entire industry, so everyone also wants to give Li Mingbao some face, and the applause has not stopped. After Li Mingbao¡¯s speech, Uncle Six, as a landlord and local coward, went up to say a few more words, and then lunch started. During the banquet, Li Mingbao and Uncle Six also worked tirelessly to communicate with the truly powerful film company bosses, giving everyone a good impression. At two o¡¯clock in the afternoon, after everyone had eaten and drank enough, they went to the golf course where the event was held. Originally, this golf course was not willing to host such a group of people from the film industry. It¡¯s not that they didn¡¯t like it.Money is mainly because there are many rich people in Hong Kong, and they have to go to the golf course to enjoy themselves from time to time. But Li Mingbao and his group of several hundred people wanted to book the venue. Although they were given a lot of money, this was just a one-time deal. They would still have to rely on the local big guys in Hong Kong for their future livelihood. What if those big guys suddenly wanted to go to the golf course during the meeting with Li Mingbao and the others? Two, but I heard that the venue was booked. The impact was not good. People who have been doing business for a long time are most afraid of regular customers being dissatisfied with their business, otherwise they will not make any money in the future. Especially in the high-end service industry, they need to be considerate. Maybe just a small problem can cause big problems. The golf course owner was unwilling to offend other wealthy people because of this incident. Fortunately, Uncle Liu¡¯s reputation is pretty good. In addition, this industry event has a great impact on many local industries in Hong Kong. It is impossible for those bosses to push business outside for their own small hobbies. Therefore, Li Mingbao and the others' plan to book the golf course went smoothly in the end. Within half a month, the owner of the golf course made a lot of money. With too many people, organizing activities will become a hassle. Although Li Mingbao and the others did provide the best service, even the owners of small and medium-sized film companies who entered the scene had enjoyed such services for the first time. But there will always be problems like this when there are many people. Li Mingbao and the others have never held any similar activities before, so their organizational skills are somewhat lacking. As for the golf course, they have never received hundreds of customers together. It was a matter of fun, so they also had no good help from the receptionists. Fortunately, what Li Mingbao and the others did this time was not a secret among the high-level circles in Hong Kong, although they knew that if Li Mingbao and the others met, it was really If it succeeds, they will spend more money in the future. But they also understand that Li Mingbao will not mark prices randomly. After all, this is a long-term industry. Since it cannot be of high quality and low price, high-end services will not be good, and the signboard will be gone. Therefore, they are concerned about the event held by Li Mingbao this time. Basically they have a neutral attitude. In addition, such an event has set a precedent in Hong Kong, so both in the business and political circles, a lot of efforts have been made to ensure the success of the conference. In this way, the issue of reception becomes less of an issue. When they actually stood at the venue, Li Mingbao, Liu Shu and others discovered that through everyone's joint efforts, the venue seemed to be in order and no trouble was caused. Coupled with the beautiful weather, the sun is not that hot today, and there are a large number of fans placed on the venue, so the temperature of the venue is not so unacceptable. After everyone sat in their corresponding seats, more than half an hour had passed. After Li Mingbao and his group, plus several other CEOs of large companies in East Asia, sat on the rostrum, the meeting really began. Li Mingbao has experienced many big scenes, and this is not the first time he has seen a dark crowd of people sitting below. So he seemed relatively calm, and the others who could sit on the rostrum were also not new, so no one suffered from stage fright. As the host and the first person to propose the celebrity plan, Li Mingbao was naturally the first to speak. So after everyone looked at him, Li Mingbao didn't hesitate and spoke directly. "I believe that everyone who came to Hong Kong today already knows what we are going to talk about. So I won't be too wordy. As for things like opening remarks, I think everyone is the boss and doesn't like to waste this time, so I won¡¯t go into it anymore. It¡¯s better to get straight to the point.¡± Anyone who heard Li Mingbao¡¯s simple and lively opening thought it was a bit strange. After all, this industry conference is a very high-end and classy thing. The benefits are also great. No matter who it is, logically speaking, they have to start with a long-winded paragraph. How can there be such a simple and straightforward opening as Li Mingbao? This is completely inconsistent with the pattern of a big boss, but it just happened like this. This also caused the group of people below, including those on the podium, to have black lines on their foreheads. Of course, people who are familiar with Li Mingbao also know that Li Mingbao's style of doing things, and he doesn't like to procrastinate. In the past, perhaps because of his lack of strength, such things were somewhat covered up, but now that Li Mingbao is in his current position, opening remarks like this are actually not enough. Not too bizarre. Rather, it was because of Li Mingbao's straightforward personality, coupled with the benefits that Li Mingbao brought to everyone after taking over the management of United Cinemas and the Distribution Port, that most people present were happy to accept a person like Li Mingbao.
