Rebirth of Hong Kong: Rising Era

Chapter 127

When Huo Yingdong heard Huo Zhenting's words, he nodded happily, living up to his training in him.

"I will tell the board of directors, just go ahead and do it, and I will tell you if anything happens!"

When Huo Zhenting heard his father supporting him so much, he nodded with a smile and continued to eat breakfast and read the newspaper.

Huo Yingdong sat for a while and asked his son, "What do you think of this Wang Yaodong?"

"Who?" Huo Zhenting put down the newspaper and asked curiously: "Who is this Wang Yaodong you just mentioned? I don't know him?"

"Yodong's investment has been so fast recently, didn't you find someone to investigate?" Huo Yingdong said incredulously.

Logically speaking, he should have investigated this kind of matter, and judging by the doubts on his face, he should just not know.

Huo Zhenting shook his head and said, "I arranged for someone to investigate yesterday afternoon, but I don't know what the situation is yet."

Huo Yingdong looked better after hearing this. If someone else made so many moves without even investigating him, then he would have to think about whether his assets can really be handed over to him?
"Don't you think the name I just mentioned has any connection with Yaodong Investment?" Huo Yingdong asked.

Huo Zhenting reacted immediately and asked curiously: "Is this Wang Yaodong the boss of Yaodong Investment? Isn't their general manager named Huo Jianning?"

"Huo Jianning is just a worker, and there are two companies under his name." Huo Yingdong replied.

"Wang Yaodong has two other companies?"

"Yes, and it's on the same floor of the building."

"Then Dad, if you have a chance, take me to meet this Uncle Wang."

Huo Zhenting heard his father's words and felt that he must be quite old to have such an achievement, and to be mentioned by his father.

When Huo Yingdong heard his son call him Uncle Wang, he suddenly laughed!
"Hahaha!"

When Huo Zhenting heard his father's laughter, he was sitting there confused. What was so funny?
After Huo Yingdong finished laughing, he said: "Who told you to call me Uncle Wang? He is only in his early twenties and is younger than you!"

Huo Zhenting was stunned when he heard this, and he didn't react for a long time.

Are today's young people so powerful?

He has never heard of the name Wang Yaodong, so the term rich second generation has little to do with him, and the rest can only be made from scratch.

What kind of person can he be so outstanding!

"Then where did he graduate?" Huo Zhenting asked his father.

He wanted to confirm whether Wang Yaodong was a highly intellectual person. If so, it would make sense.

Huo Yingdong also knew what his son was thinking. He shook his head and said, "He didn't even graduate from middle school."

Huo Zhenting was shocked again when he heard this!
Just when he was about to ask something more, Huo Yingdong waved his hand at him.

"You should have someone check this before you know more about it!"

After speaking, he stood up and went out the door first.

Seeing this, Huo Zhenting speeded up his meal and followed him out the door.

……

"A'le, sit down first!" Wang Yaodong said with a smile when he saw Chen Baixiang coming.

Chen Baixiang smiled and nodded: "Okay, you go ahead."

Wang Yaodong nodded, finished processing the documents in his hands, and then walked to Chen Baixiang and sat down.

"Wang Sheng, I don't know why you came to me so urgently." Chen Baixiang saw him sitting down and immediately asked.

He was just accompanying the crew on the set, but unexpectedly he was called over urgently.

At first he thought something big had happened, but when he arrived, nothing happened.

Sitting here just now, I was very puzzled, there was nothing wrong, why did I find myself in such a hurry?

I couldn't help but ask after the others were done.

"Ah Le, I remember you were the big boss, right?" Wang Yaodong didn't answer his question directly, but asked back.

Chen Baixiang was also very confused when he heard this. How could he suddenly bring up the matter of being a boss?

But since Wang Yaodong asked, he also smiled and said: "What kind of big boss is Wang Sheng? There is no way to compare with you."

Wang Yaodong smiled and said: "You don't have to be modest. I'm calling you here this time. I'm mainly asking you if you want to get another position?"

"Uh~" Chen Baixiang was speechless and didn't know how to answer.

After thinking for a while, he said, "Wang Sheng, I don't quite understand?"

Wang Yaodong didn't ask him any riddles, and said directly: "Our theater chain has been completely renovated, and you should know about the acquisition of Shao's theater chain, right?"

"I know, I read this in the newspaper this morning. Mr. Wang is really amazing!" Chen Baixiang couldn't help but sigh as he thought of this morning's newspaper.

"Yaodong Cinema Chain currently lacks a general manager!" Wang Yaodong said calmly.

When Chen Baixiang heard this, he completely understood that he wanted to manage the theater by himself!
"Sheng Wang, are you overestimating me? I know nothing about theater management!"

Although Chen Baixiang knew it, he still felt embarrassed.

He wouldn't dare mess around with such an expensive theater chain!

Wang Yaodong waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "Didn't you know nothing about it when you first set up a clothing factory?"

"Uh~" Chen Baixiang was speechless for a while before he said, "Can this be the same?"

"Almost, don't worry." Wang Yaodong patted him on the shoulder and said: "Besides, you are not the only one. Shao has acquired so many people. You have to make good use of them!"

When Chen Baixiang heard this, his eyes lit up and he immediately said: "Sheng Wang, there are such professionals here, why don't you let Shao's previous general manager do it?"

"He has been poached by others, maybe because he feels that this position will not be his." Wang Yaodong said after taking a sip.

Chen Baixiang told Wang Yaodong that for this reason, he knew that he would not be able to escape!
"Okay, I'll try my best!" Chen Baixiang compromised.

Seeing that he agreed, Wang Yaodong laughed from the bottom of his heart, the big stone in his heart was finally let go.

"Then you go over and take over tomorrow and recruit the staff as soon as possible. On the opening day, we will directly show the true colors of heroes." Wang Yaodong explained.

Chen Baixiang said nothing more this time and nodded in agreement.

"Then I'll go first. I was informed by my agent that there was an emergency and I needed to come over just halfway through filming. It has already delayed the crew a lot of time."

Wang Yaodong waved his hand and said: "Go, go!"

Chen Baixiang smiled and nodded, stood up and left.

……

Amid all the attention, all the renovations of Yaodong Cinema Line have been officially completed and are ready for use.

"Wang Sheng, congratulations!"

"Congratulations, Mr. Wang..."

Amid endless congratulations, it was finally time to unveil the Yaodong Cinema Line.

Wang Yaodong, Chen Baixiang and Huo Jianning used scissors to cut off the flower rope.

Today is the weekend, and many people who saw the previous promotion came to join in the fun.

At the end of the ceremony, Wang Yaodong and Huo Jianning both retreated, leaving the stage to Chen Baixiang.

After Chen Baixiang said some kind words above, the time came to nine o'clock and the cinema started selling tickets.

Today, Yaodong Cinema only has the movie A Better Tomorrow.

Jiahe and Princess Jin were quite prestigious, but despite the warnings from the two companies, no independent filmmaker came to Yaodong Pictures for distribution.Therefore, the true character of the hero can only go up alone.

But fortunately, the quality is very good and can last for a while.

Follow-ups include Wang Jing's God of Gamblers, Lin Zhengying's zombie Taoist Priest, and Cheng Xiaodong's Brave Double Cannon.

With these movies in the pipeline, I should be able to take things more calmly, as long as I can make up for it in the future!
Everyone is very face-saving. It is the first opening, and the first show of Heroes has an attendance rate of nearly [-]%.

This situation is very good. As long as the first wave of people can feel comfortable after watching it, the second game won't be too bad either.

It's just that Wang Yaodong was still too optimistic. He didn't expect that the attendance rate would drop to two levels in the second game, which was quite large.

"A'le, you've been busy, sit down and have a glass of water." Wang Yaodong said with a smile when he saw Chen Baixiang entering the lounge.

"Thank you Wang Sheng!"

Chen Baixiang was indeed thirsty. Within a few seconds of taking the water, he had already downed a glass of water.

After he finished drinking and put down his glass, Wang Yaodong asked, "How's the situation, Jiahe and Princess Jin haven't changed the new movie, right?"

When Chen Baixiang heard what he said, he shook his head and said: "They didn't change. Compared with the attendance rate of the movie, they still make money, and they are not willing to change. This is a good time for us to take advantage of the victory."

"Yes, it seems that they are not brave enough, but we are not afraid of it. Our movies are good enough." Wang Yaodong took a sip of tea.

"Well, now we have to wait until tomorrow to see the box office performance of our movie and the attendance rate!" Chen Baixiang replied.

Wang Yaodong saw that lunch time had arrived and left without anything else.

……

"How is the situation?" Zou Wenhuai asked He Guanchang who had just entered the office.

"When they opened, there weren't many movie people to support them. As for the box office of the new film, I guess it won't be too bad, at least as good as the Five Lucky Stars we are releasing now."

He Guanchang gave a very good evaluation to "The True Character of a Hero".

"How can you boost the morale of the enemy and destroy your prestige?" Zou Wenhuai said a little displeased when he heard what his right-hand man would say.

He Guanchang also knows that it affects morale, but now it’s just the two of us behind closed doors, so it doesn’t matter!

"It's just the two of us, we still have to seek truth from facts!" He Guanchang said helplessly.

Zou Wenhuai sighed when he heard this. This was calculated to death.

……

Princess Jin's side, Lei Jiekun, didn't say anything when he arrived. He was worried about raising a tiger himself, so what else could he say.

All that was left was a wry smile.

"Mr. Lei, do we need to do something?" Wu Zhaocan asked when he saw Lei Jiekun who was in a bad mood.

"No need, they don't have many film sources. Now it depends on their ability. The stall is too big and it's easy to mess up." Lei Jiekun waved his hands a little tiredly.

Things have been really bad lately. Kowloon Construction has been in a lot of trouble, and the bus is also in trouble. I can no longer attend to the cinema.

……

next day!

Nine o'clock!

Wang Yaodong received a call from Chen Baixiang in the car. The box office results on the first day were already out!

230, what an incredible number, people who saw it were seriously doubtful.

"Are you sure? Didn't the second round drop to [-]%? Why is the box office still so high?" Wang Yaodong asked three times out of curiosity.

"Because after the second game, the word-of-mouth has completely improved, and the next game will be basically sold out." Chen Baixiang said happily.

He finally didn't mess things up.

"Haha, okay, you'll have to work hard on the theater side." Wang Yaodong said with a smile.

After finishing speaking, I hung up the phone.

When I arrived at the company, I saw Zhou Runfa arriving as soon as I entered the door.

"Afa, why are you here so early? Have you received the box office news?" Wang Yaodong greeted him with a smile.

"Good morning, Mr. Wang, I just received the box office information. I didn't expect that I would also have a big box office day." Zhou Runfa laughed at himself.

Wang Yaodong also smiled and said: "It turns out that you are still suitable for making movies. I don't know how much money I will burn today!"

"What do you mean, how much does it cost to burn?" Zhou Runfa said a little confused.

The colleague on the side also came out to check the presence, took out a banknote and gestured.

Zhou Runfa instantly understood what Wang Yaodong was talking about, and laughed instantly.

Seeing that he understood, Wang Yaodong invited him, "Would you like to come to my office for a cup of coffee?"

Zhou Runfa nodded and said, "Yes!"

"Let's go then!"

After Wang Yaodong finished speaking, he walked ahead.

After a while, the two came to the office and sat on the sofa to drink coffee.

"Sheng Wang, thank you for giving me this opportunity to get rid of the title of box office poison. I will drink coffee instead of wine and toast to you." Zhou Runfa said while holding the coffee.

Wang Yaodong also happily picked up the coffee and touched it with him.

"Wang Sheng, if you have something to do, just ask directly, and I will help you if you can." Zhou Run put down his coffee and said.

"That's fair to say, I just have something for you to do." Wang Yaodong said with a smile.

Zhou Runfa was confused when he heard this. He dug his own hole and buried himself.

But if I say it, I have to finish it on my knees.

"Sheng Wang, I don't know what I can help with."

Wang Yaodong also found it funny when he saw his expression changing several times.

"Don't worry, this matter is very easy for you and not difficult at all." Wang Yaodong replied.

Zhou Runfa finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard what he said. It's just that it's not too difficult.

"What's the matter, you just say it." He said with a relaxed face at this moment.

"You should be very familiar with Wu Meng Mengda. Go and see if he has really quit gambling. If he really quits gambling, bring him to the company!" Wang Yaodong nodded.

"Ah!" Zhou Runfa said with a look of astonishment: "Wang Sheng, are you really sure you want to sign him too?"

"I'm very sure, as long as he quits gambling." Wang Yaodong said without thinking.

"Why?" Zhou Runfa didn't understand this matter.

"Talent, as long as his talent is enough, he can be given a chance." Wang Yaodong gave a casual reason.

Zhou Runfa saw that Wang Yaodong was really not joking, so he nodded and agreed.

"Come on, drink coffee!"

"Okay, you drink too!"

The two picked up the coffee and drank it again!
