Although the Shaw Brothers have been inactive for many years, their status in the arena is there, and they can't be ignored by others. At this time, just before the sensitive 1997, it became a mountain rain in a blink of an eye. The major newspapers and magazines in Hong Kong scrambled to interpret it, speculating on what was hidden behind the alliance | Inside information, analyze whether the Shaw Brothers To return to the film industry, in another way to open their own battle lines.

At the same time, many right-wingers swear and mock that this is Sir Shao’s other show of goodwill to the mainland. Even Chen Yuanming, who just bought a luxury house in Repulse Bay, has been portrayed as a pawn of the red regime, who is preparing to wedge into the inner outpost of Hong Kong Island. However, the more such propaganda, the more popular Feiyan's reputation is. After all, after the return, no one can figure out what the legendary "one country, two systems" is. Except for those immigrants who are determined to leave Hong Kong, who doesn't want to show their loyalty, Tantan False.

In the past, Sir Shao donated billions of dollars, and later, Golden Harvest Shanghai invested. This time, even the Shaw Brothers were taken out to burn their residual heat. Tian Fei Anheng was going crazy. There were endless receptions and banquets, and a pair of golden bullets and silver bullets were on the offensive. Fortunately, Comrade Tip was firm, so he was not swallowed alive by the 'passionate' Hong Kong compatriots.

Compared with Fei Anheng's miserable days, Chen Yuanming is obviously a bit more dashing. Except for tea and chatting in and out of the Shaw Brothers mansion, he hardly participated in the harassing farce outside. It has been tossing for half a month, and the overall situation can be settled. In addition to the big-name Golden Harvest and those film companies that have had close contacts with Taiwan, large and small film companies have established VCD distribution plans, and the title of partner has obvious sincerity. The agent is solely responsible for Hong Kong VCD distribution. To this end, Chen Yuanming specially invested another 10,000 US dollars for Huanyu as the cost of adding a VCD filling line, and obtained a 3% stake as usual.

With the support of Shaw Brothers and the propaganda of the paparazzi, Feiyan's Hong Kong strategic goal was perfectly achieved, and Chen Yuanming returned to Anhui alone before the finishing work was over. Now that the construction of the Feiyan Factory has been completely completed, it has begun to enter the first-line production. When stepping into the new warehouse and seeing the piles of VCD players piled up like hills, even a veteran and serious guy like Chen Yuanming couldn't help but heartbeat. a bit.

"How is it?" Standing beside Chen Yuanming, Yu Yongan's chubby face was full of pride, "The daily production capacity has exceeded 3,000 units, the four production lines are operating well, the workers are specially trained, and the technical ability is very strong, and we will wait further. After running in and improving the system, it is estimated that the daily production of 5,000 will not be a problem.”

"Yeah." Chen Yuanming nodded lightly, "You can't relax the quality control either. This is the foundation of an enterprise. You can't neglect product inspection in order to catch up with the quantity."

"That's natural." Once served as the CEO of a large company with an annual output value of more than 100 million, how could Yu Yongan not understand this truth. However, it is not the quality of the product that is important now. He cleared his throat and began to complain to the owner who paid for it, "However, Director Chen, there is a problem with the company's turnover at present, and the financial pressure is still quite heavy if you can't get in, let's promote the plan to the end. When will it start?"

Chen Yuanming smiled when he heard the words. In the past six months, he has indeed spent too much. At the beginning, the nearly 200 million figure on the book was almost thrown out. The working capital has fallen to the bottom, but there must be something to pay, especially for his kind. "pay".

"Don't worry, the funds will not be broken, Mr. Yu, just focus on production. The advertising plan has already been formulated, and it is indeed not the time to start distribution, but it won't be too long... "

It really doesn't take long. Less than a week later, Lin Xuewen finally hurried back to the company, and the first sentence he said was, "Damn, have you even done Shaw Brothers?"

Now this news is no longer a secret, Chen Yuanming poured a cup of tea for the other party with a good temper, and asked back with a smile, "It's just a little trick, what about Brother Lin?"

"Hey, don't look at who is going out." After getting familiar with it, Lin Xuewen's arrogance and self-satisfaction completely evaporated from his gentle appearance, adding a bit of ticklish temperament. Spreading out on the sofa, he unceremoniously picked up the teacup, and Meimei took two sips, "Several major studios have already negotiated, and the recent hit directors Chen Kaige, Zhang Yimou, and Tian Zhuangzhuang have not left a single one. The first batch VCD expects two films, both of which are of high artistic value and outstanding at the box office, and two TV series, "A Dream of Red Mansions" and "Desire"."

"Not bad." Chen Yuanming nodded with satisfaction. It was indeed much better than he imagined. Although there are not many products, it is just right for this almost blank market. Clear layers and consistent quality are the key issues today. Place.

"Where's yours?" Lin Xuewen asked rhetorically, "Apart from Shaw Brothers?"

"Movies include the "Beautiful Partner" series, "Knife Horse", "A Chinese Ghost Story", "A Happy Family". The TV series are "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and "Huo Yuanjia"."

"No Jiahe?" After listening for a long time, Lin Xuewen couldn't help frowning and found that he didn't expect a target. "They really didn't come out at all?"

"Maybe it will come out in the future, but it's obviously not through us." Chen Yuanming raised the corners of his mouth, "This kind of thing can't be forced, first set up your own flag."

"Tsk." With a light tut, Lin Xuewen changed the subject, "Now that the domestic situation is basically settled, is it time to develop the overseas route? I didn't say that there seems to be a movement in Japan, and you are making too much noise in Hong Kong. Well, Sony won't just stand there and watch us make a fortune."

Yes, if it is VCD, it is true that Sony and Philips cannot be avoided. After all, VCD comes from CD, and its standard will also build on the CD standard. This prerequisite means that Sony and Philips can obey the big VCD. Share a bowl in the pot.

Chen Yuanming snorted lightly, "Let's talk about it, there's nothing to stop it, the sooner we talk about it, the sooner we can feel at ease. But when the next generation of products comes out, it's not that they are looking for us. When domestic affairs are settled, you can fly directly. The United States is good, you can't take one step at a time, and everything has to be ahead."

"It's up to you to say that." Lin Xuewen stretched out, "It's a pity that I can't see the effect of my advertising plan..."

Chen Yuanming smiled, "First make sure that your scissor hand is strong enough."

"Hmph~ That's an old connoisseur of the North Film Studio, and Bao Jun is satisfied."

It's busy here, and the harvest season is coming early. At the end of January, news came from the United States that a sniper battle on the European foreign exchange market had ended successfully. Tiger Fund won a big victory, with a profit of more than 1%. Even after deducting the part of the management fee to be paid to the hedge fund, Chen Yuanming also received up to 1%. 86% of the profits were made, and the funds successfully exceeded 50 million US dollars.

Of course, Mr. Robertson kindly retained Chen Yuanming to stay in Tiger Fund, but next year, the hedge fund’s goal is basically to focus on Eurobonds. Chen Yuanming didn’t want to go into this muddy water, and politely declined the invitation of the other party. He directly charged a price of 14 US dollars per share. Tens of millions of dollars in Cisco's stock, ready to do a wave of short-term.

There has also been good news from Silicon Valley recently. Several major computer manufacturers have begun to agree on the sB universal serial port problem. The small company under his command happened to be in the way, and the patent rights were almost applied while brushing. Since the company has not yet been listed, even a hostile takeover is somewhat difficult. Later, Microsoft decided to spend 50,000 US dollars to acquire the company. As a major shareholder, Chen Yuanming had no opinion, more than 20,000 US dollars was recorded, and he obtained ten times the profit.

In China, after the 11th, PHS was quietly listed in Shenyang, and the price was 18 yuan each, which was a section cheaper than the Motorola pager at that time, not to mention the price of Big Brother. Such "high quality and low price" products naturally attracted hot sales. According to Xiao Yun, the sales in January exceeded 5,000. This number is mainly because the base station is currently only available in Shenyang City, otherwise it would be unimaginable.

A few days later, with the news, a special gift arrived in Chen Yuanming's hands. It was a new PHS, but unlike several existing models on the market, this phone is painted in a very elegant navy blue color. The general-purpose spray paint, even made a little gradient effect, looks trendy and charming, highlighting the full design talent.

There is a sticky note attached to the package: exclusive custom, gift to a friend. Xiao Junyi

Chen Yuanming was happy when he saw it. PHS is basically a piece of bricks away from Shenyang. Such a gift is really unique. After thinking about it, he smiled slightly, and asked someone to send back the VCD samples sent by Hong Kong as they were. It was a wooden box version of the Complete Works of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". The problem is that the VCD machine has not yet been listed, so it is just a decoration to take back such a set of discs.

After the little joke was over, Chen Yuanming's attention slowly returned to the VCD publicity planning. With the arrival of November, the planned advertising campaign is finally about to kick off, which is different from any previous propaganda in Chinese history. It is a winner or a loser, and it depends on this campaign!

On November 18, on CCTV's evening show, an advertisement quietly appeared in front of the public.
