Chapter 62 The Rise of ATV
1982 10 Month 24 Day.

In the morning, Chen Xiaotang woke up from his sleep.I felt my head was a little dizzy, and I touched the door, and I felt a little hot, maybe it was because I was exposed to the rain last night that I had a little fever.

After getting up, drinking some water and taking some antipyretics, Chen Xiaotang went downstairs to have breakfast with his family.

In the tea restaurant, the TV on the wall is broadcasting the daily news.Dad Chen Fugui was scratching his crotch while flipping through the newspaper in his hand.

Mother Li Shuzhen brought out the porridge and some breakfast dishes, and urged Chen Fugui, "Don't look at it, eat quickly, and open after dinner!"

Seeing Chen Xiaotang coming down, she said again: "Hurry up, Ah Tang, my mother made you delicious food today!" Arranging for her son to sit down, Li Shuzhen handed him the sweet soup she had specially prepared, "Drink a little, let's get rid of it." Fire moistens the lungs!"

"Mom is so eccentric, I don't even have to drink!" Chen Xiaoxiao, the little girl who came downstairs with her hair in her hands, muttered.

"Why don't you? No matter how partial your mother is, I will never forget my most precious daughter!"

"Hehe, it's better to be my mother!" Chen Xiaoxiao put his arms around his mother's neck and kissed her.

"Go, go, think I'm still young!" Li Shuzhen scolded with a smile.

Then Chen Xiaoxiao picked up the soup, drank it all in one gulp, and then went to find the leather bag to go to work. Li Shuzhen said distressedly: "Why do you only drink a little soup, and there are so many meals---"

"No, today the newspaper office asked for the manuscript, I have to go there early!" Chen Xiaoxiao picked up his leather bag and was about to turn around and go out, but suddenly seemed to remember something, turned to Chen Xiaotang and said: "Brother, the novel you are writing now Very good, there are many letters from readers asking you to speed up the update."

"Speed ​​up? It's no use! Didn't you see that I'm exhausted?" Chen Xiaotang waved his hand.

"I knew you would say that. Also, it's already the end of the month, and I've collected your manuscript fee for you. It's 700 yuan in total. Here!"

"Wow, that's a lot!" Chen Xiaotang took the manuscript fee from his sister and roughly counted it, then handed it over to his mother and said, "It's a household use!"

Li Shuzhen was taken aback, "I don't need so many! Besides, your father and I have hands and feet, so we have enough for the family!"

Chen Xiaotang laughed and said, "Then treat it as my sister's dowry fund!"

"Brother, this is what you said, sister, I will not be polite!" Chen Xiaoxiao snatched the manuscript fee.

But before she warmed up the money, her mother Li Shuzhen copied it again and said, "Little sister, you are too ignorant. Now your brother is an actor, and he will be a star in the future, socializing or something." , will cost money! I will give you your dowry in the future!"

Chen Xiao smiled and pouted, "You still say you are not partial, it's a lie!" Then he turned around and stomped his feet and said to Chen Fugui, "Dad, look!"

Chen Fugui accused his wife: "Don't spoil Ah Tang too much, you don't know if you can become a star, so you just spread the word everywhere---and ah, in the future, you don't go to the place where your son is filming, I'm afraid Others don't know that he has such a talkative mother like you!"

"What did you say? Am I embarrassing my son? I also feel sorry for my son when I went to visit the set! You don't know how tiring filming is. It's heartbreaking to watch!"

"It's just you who love your son, what happened to other people's parents? Don't they love you? I think you are too greedy for vanity!"

As soon as Li Shuzhen heard what Chen Fugui said, she became angry, and said with her hands on her hips, "What are you talking about, old man! I'm greedy for vanity?! If I was really greedy for vanity, I wouldn't have married you to death You poor man! I don’t know how many princes and grandsons pursued me back then, but I was blind and fell in love with you!"

Chen Xiaoxiao saw that his parents were firing, and said "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhs

Where is Chen Fugui's wife's opponent? He was said to be unable to hold his head up. He was a pile of cow dung, and his wife was a flower. Unfortunately, he was stuck on himself and suffered.

Chen Xiaotang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, this pair of cheap parents were like living treasures, they didn't quarrel three or two times every morning, as if they couldn't eat.

"Mom and Dad, stop arguing, and watch out for the neighbors to hear you!" Chen Xiaotang acted as a filial son to persuade them to fight.

It's a pity that his voice is limited. His mother Li Shuzhen is in high spirits, telling how her flower was destroyed by Chen Fugui, an old cow, and how she pulled her children up with feces and piss , the sound was deafening, enough to make many announcers ashamed.

Xin said that it is not suitable to stay here for a long time, just when Chen Xiaotang buried his head in the food and wanted to leave the table as soon as possible, the sonorous and forceful accusation of his mother Li Shuzhen suddenly stopped.

Chen Fugui was stunned by the words that made him look ashamed, and he thought to himself, does my wife want to let me go?
Chen Xiaotang was also stunned, and thought to himself, he finally finished speaking, so he can breathe a sigh of relief.

Then look at Li Shuzhen staring at the TV in a daze, with her mouth open, dumbfounded.

"What's wrong, wife, don't scare me!" Chen Fugui said.

"Mom, what's the matter, what happened?" Chen Xiaotang asked.

Li Shuzhen was tongue-tied, babbling, and with a strange expression on her face, she pointed at the TV---
Chen Xiaotang and Chen Fugui looked, but saw a news broadcast on the TV.

"Report from Hong Kong and Taiwan: Today, Mr. Qiu Degen, the chairman of Hong Kong Far East Group, officially released the news to major news media that Far East Group invested 25 billion Hong Kong dollars in shares of Hong Kong Lai TV Station, and will gradually acquire Lai's shares from the Australian consortium. Since then, Mr. Qiu Degen's Far East Group has become the largest shareholder of Hongkong Li TV, and Mr. Qiu Degen himself will serve as the chairman of the board of directors of the TV station."

On the TV camera, a hale and hearty old man in a Tang suit exchanged information with a group of ghosts, and then sat down one after another.

"At this press conference, Mr. Qiu Degen announced three measures to reform Xiangjiang Li's TV, including----"

The camera on the TV screen turned, and the old man in Tang suit was holding a document and patrolling around with piercing eyes. His voice was slow but powerful: "First, Li's TV station will be renamed Xiangjiang ATV TV station, which means, Smiling proudly in Asia. , take charge of the future! Second, in the future ATV will focus on both self-produced dramas and outsourced dramas. According to the ratings in Hong Kong, we will increase the production of local dramas. Third, in the first three months of ATV’s establishment, we will launch A series of new dramas, including "Amber and Green Dragon", "A Journey to the Tiger Mountain", and "Three Heroes in the Wind and Dust", etc., next year we will start filming a Qing court production "Girl Empress Dowager Cixi". I hope everyone can enjoy it. like!"

…………

Seeing the sudden change of owner of "Li's" on the TV screen, and the rise of ATV, Chen Fugui was also a little surprised. After all, he had watched Li's TV dramas for so many years, and suddenly this TV station disappeared, which was somewhat embarrassing.

Chen Xiaotang, however, was surprised and heaved a sigh of relief. Bi Jing's historical trajectory did not change because of his sudden appearance. After a month's delay, Li's still became ATV. It is inevitable!

But immediately Chen Xiaotang felt that something was wrong, what's wrong, his mother Li Shuzhen was still dumbstruck.Could it be that———— Chen Xiaotang was taken aback, and hurriedly asked: "Mom, you didn't... bought Li's stock, did you?"

Li Shuzhen nodded.

Chen Fugui was taken aback, and hurriedly asked: "Ah Zhen, when did you play stocks? How much did you buy?"

Li Shuzhen stretched out three fingers.

"Thirty thousand?" Chen Fugui asked doubtfully.

Li Shuzhen shook her head.

"Thirty...30?" Chen Fugui felt his throat dry out.

"En." Li Shuzhen nodded like a little daughter-in-law.

"Where did you get so much money?!" Chen Fugui was stunned.

"I mortgaged the restaurant---" Li Shuzhen's tone was a little excited.

"Then...has it risen now?" Chen Fugui swallowed, he knew a little bit about stocks, and when the company was acquired, the stock would rise sharply.

"En." Li Shuzhen nodded sharply again.

"How much has it increased?" Chen Fugui asked again.

"At least...half!"

"Wow!" Chen Fugui was taken aback, "It's increased so much?!"

Li Shuzhen didn't feel happy at all, instead she yelled, "Why don't I believe A Tang's words, I would have bought more if I knew it!"

Chen Fugui almost choked to death, honestly, he always felt that earning so much for nothing was enough, but he didn't expect his wife to be more greedy than himself.

Chen Xiaotang understood very well how her mother wanted to hit the wall at the moment. She clearly had a card in her hand that could make her rich overnight, but she just couldn't believe her son's words, so she carefully placed a bet of 30 yuan , now - - - - - - - regret it!
"Hey, why don't I listen to my son? If I listen to him, I will borrow usury and bet on it for millions. Then we are rich now, and you and I don't have to work so hard. Tired of taking care of the store, living frugally—you don’t have to wake up early and stay late, and suffer from backaches for the whole family——the child’s father, it’s all my fault!” Li Shuzhen’s eyes were red Red land, I almost cried.

Through Li Shuzhen's remorseful narration, Chen Fugui somewhat knew what happened, so he comforted his wife and said, "Ah Zhen, stop blaming yourself. You don't have a long-term perspective, how would you know that the stock market will really explode? Besides, Ah Tang was fooled this time too. If he was mistaken and Li's was not acquired, then wouldn't our family be hacked to death by those debt collectors?! So, just be content with it, what should I say? I also earned more than [-] yuan, which is enough to be blessed!"

Chen Xiaotang also said: "Yes, Mom, I was fooled this time. It's already good that you can earn so much at once, so don't be sad anymore!"

Li Shuzhen blew her nose with a tissue, and said with red eyes: "You are right, I can't be too greedy---the poor have their lives, we can't always expect to get rich overnight, we are still safe and sound Live your own little life! Woohoo!!" After crying for a while, he said: "Fortunately, I still have a good son, Ah Tang, you promise me that you must act well and strive to become famous as soon as possible. Let your mother be honored too! Promise me, okay?"

"Okay, okay, mom, I promise you, I will definitely stand out, bring credit to your face, and make you the greatest star mom!" Chen Xiaotang said as he helped his mother wipe away tears.

"Well, that's what you said!" Li Shuzhen laughed through tears, like a child.

"Don't worry, Mom, I promise my son will do it!" Chen Xiaotang said with a smile on his face and a firm tone.

ATV has been unable to do wireless in Xiangjiang. The most fundamental reason is that it has changed owners several times, so that the top is floating and the foundation is unstable.The only thing that can threaten TVB is the four people who cultivated Jiang Hua, Lu Songxian, Wan Qiwen, and Wu Yongwei in the early 90s, forming a screen couple and dominating the TV circle for a while.
