Reborn Tech Maniac

Chapter 654
……

No matter what problems Fang Yihua has in her work style, her diligence is obvious.

Without this tenacity, Fang Yihua would not have transformed from a singer to an executive, and was trusted and relied upon by Yifu Shao as a business partner.

However, this sixth uncle, who is nearly eighty years old, is really not suitable for specific operations.Although his original intention is understandable, but the goal of "The Taipan" is really poorly chosen. There is a high possibility that the Eastern and Western audiences will not like it, and it will end up in an embarrassing situation that is not pleasing to both sides.

You know, the newly established Xiangjiang Cinemas Group took a fancy to Shao Yifu's prestige in the industry, and thus chose him as the chairman of the board of directors.If the "Taipan" fails miserably, the morale that has been gathered with great difficulty will inevitably be affected.

The reason why Tang Huan took the trouble to explain to Fang Yihua for a long time was because he had to be on guard.With this communication in advance, when he met the elderly Shao Yifu at the stage where the Miss Xiangjiang election finals were held, it was much easier to communicate with him.

Taking advantage of the absence of Fang Yihua, Tang Huan specifically mentioned the fact that Andy Lau was hidden by TVB, "Andy Lau's potential deserves to be treated as an exception. After all, he is also a talent that TVB has worked hard to promote. I remember the year before last The finals of the Miss Hong Kong contest were also staged, and Andy Lau was also the star of the show, so there was no need to make it so stiff."

In fact, since 1982, the TVB artist training class has been severely challenged by DreamWorks in terms of attracting students.In that year's class, only Leung Chiu Wai was a popular niche, and Andy Lau, Qi Meizhen, Wu Jiali in 1981, Miao Qiaowei and Huang Rihua in 1980, Tang Zhenye, Jing Daiyin, Zhou Xiulan in 1979, etc., formed an obvious contrast. contrast.

For this reason, the TVB artist training class has been restructured since 1983, from an all-round comprehensive training to a short, flat and fast special training, revealing a taste of eagerness for quick success.

In other words, the TVB artist training class has attracted girls like Shang Tian'e, Zeng Huaqian, Lan Jieying, and Li Meixian to continue to sign up based on years of word-of-mouth. Many people, especially the young man, have turned to DreamWorks Here, it is very difficult to cultivate a good seed like Andy Lau, and it is really easy and cherished.

Shao Yifu slid his hand lightly on the crutch, and pondered: "Since Tang Sheng said it, then I will personally reconcile it. Young people will inevitably go out of line in things, and a knock is enough. There is really no need to really cut people off." future."

"Sixth uncle is generous." Tang Huan laughed, "But it's best not to let Ms. Fang know that I mentioned this, lest she complain that I dictated the internal affairs of TVB."

"How come? You are also a shareholder of TVB and have the right to express your opinion." Shao Yifu waved his hand magnanimously. It was obvious that he was dissatisfied with Media Asia TV's efforts to transform into a media organization and then part ways with TVB in terms of business direction. Very satisfied.

In the midst of this kind of chat, the 1986 Miss Xiangjiang election finals began. The host was the gold medal emcee He Shouxin who had never been shaken for thousands of years, and he also brought two popular male artists—Leslie Cheung and Zhong Zhentao as assistants.

It can be said that TVB has allowed Leslie Cheung from DreamWorks to appear in the Miss Xiangjiang finals for two consecutive years, and the meaning of wooing is obvious.Especially this year, there is an intention to check and balance Alan Tam.

In today's Hong Kong music scene, the most popular person is none other than Alan Tam. His record sales are booming, he has won music awards, and he has great box office appeal. The commercial performance of almost all the movies he has participated in has satisfied investors.

Therefore, TVB tried its best to win over this popular king, and gave various awards without hesitation at its own Top Ten Golden Song Awards Ceremony.

However, Alan Tam and TVB had conflicts this year. Although TVB would not take immediate action to suppress TVB, it has also begun to plan ahead and throw an olive branch to Leslie Cheung, who has rapidly become popular since 1984.

Looking at the three hosts standing on the stage, Tang Huan, who had quickly gone through the stakes in his heart, shook his head secretly. He really didn't have time to pay attention to such conflicts anymore, so let it be.

Due to the good response to the first Miss Chinese Universe competition launched by DreamWorks and Media Asia TV last year, Miss Xiangjiang, who felt the pressure, also made many targeted changes, such as interspersed in the finals. Talent show in dance, skits, etc.

Apparently, TVB has intensified its efforts to select artists from the Miss Xiangjiang campaign, which just reflects from another aspect that TVB artist training classes are becoming increasingly weak in delivering top talents.

However, in Tang Huan's view, TVB's move is another manifestation of eagerness for quick success. It is simply a stupid act of actively lowering the style to impose the requirements of the entertainment industry on the standards of Miss Xiangjiang's election. Miss Xiangjiang's mission is not only Entertainment.

Among the beauties, No. 8 Li Meishan stood out the most. Because her height was a bit exaggerated in the crowd, it happened that it was Leslie Cheung's turn to ask questions. As a result, she stood aside and compared the gap, which made this popular niche quite embarrassed.

Since the previous sessions were all kinds of dazzling small talent shows, instead of broadcasting the relevant data of the beauties one by one like the previous Miss Xiangjiang finals, Tang Huan secretly compared Wang Zuxian and made a visual inspection on his own. He couldn't help but He said to himself: "The height of No. 8 is 175 centimeters."

"1.76 meters." Fang Yihua took the words proudly, "This Li Meishan immigrated to the United States with her parents at the age of 8. She graduated from the Biology Department of New York University and obtained a master's degree. The Miss Xiangjiang election in 1978 set a record. That is, Chen Wenyu, who won the championship, became the first Hong Kong lady with a bachelor's degree in history. If Li Meishan wins this year, this record will be refreshed."

"This arrangement is not easy for you." Tang Huan muttered to himself, with a meaningful smile on his face, "Ms. Fang is really clever. Finding such a high-quality beauty is almost going to take the international route." The way out for the Miss Chinese Universe contest is blocked."

Fang Yihua did not deny it and said with a smile: "Tang Sheng, why don't you give an evaluation to all the beauties?"

Tang Huan did not refuse, and directly expressed his feelings, "This Li Meishan is indeed very outstanding, and it is easy to see that she is an American-style Chinese girl with a strong body and confident smiles showing her white teeth; from the talent show Judging from the competition, No. 13 Wu Wanfang is quite talented in singing; there are also several artist talents with good potential. If the Miss Hong Kong contest wants to take the lead in suppressing the Miss Chinese Universe contest, Li Meishan will be a rare candidate for the championship. "

"Tang Sheng is really astute." Fang Yihua was at a loss for words all of a sudden. Fortunately, Li Meishan showed off her language talent on stage. During the interactive session, she expressed in multiple foreign languages ​​with the host, which drew applause and relieved her. Embarrassing around.

Facts have proved that Tang Huan's vision is not ordinary, and he completely predicted the result without knowing the relevant information of the Miss Xiangjiang contest in advance.

In 1985, Miss Xiangjiang Xie Ning appeared on the stage, and the successor who took over was really No. 8 Li Meishan, and thus created the record for the highest education of Hong Kong sister, and also set a record for height.This is especially evident when Shane Nin puts his cape and laurels on him.

TVB is really full of fighting power. In terms of music awards, its Top Ten Golden Songs Awards Ceremony, Heung Kong Radio Station's Top Ten Chinese Golden Songs Awards Concert, and Media Asia TV Music Channel's Global Chinese Songs Ranking Awards Ceremony are incomparable. In terms of beauty pageants, the Miss Xiangjiang campaign has deliberately tried to compete with the young Miss Chinese Universe contest.

Just fight, there will be progress only when there is competition.

Tang Huan shook his head, and said to himself: "I can't care so much about everything, I'd better go back and enjoy my 'beautiful legs'."

……

TVB took the lead in the championship standard in the finals of the Miss Hong Kong competition, which greatly annoyed Hu Yinmeng, who led the Miss Chinese Universe contest team back to Hong Kong.

In fact, despite the fact that the Miss Chinese Cosmos contest is in full swing, this year it really doesn’t have much room for choice. Under the premise of emphasizing the world’s Chinese, it is also necessary to introduce a champion with a mainland background like last year’s Miss Hong Kong contest. .

With these restrictions, the organizing committee's hands and feet were unavoidably tied, and even Hu Kaili, Miss Hawaii Youth, who was specially recommended by Tang Huan, was postponed for a year to make her debut.

But now, TVB took the lead in making this year's Miss Xiangjiang campaign champion have the two halos of the United States and high education, which immediately made the two most proud cards of the Miss Chinese Universe contest lose their freshness, and inevitably became passive.

Hu Yinmeng circled around her favorite candidate for the championship, Li Zhi, and then pointed out: "Compared with that Li Meishan, your two advantages of studying in the United States and having a university degree no longer exist. Can you Have to work harder.”

"I will try my best not to disappoint Miss Hu." Li Zhi promised without looking sideways.

"Of course you have to work hard." Hu Yinmeng stroked Lizhi's charming cheek and said, "You are working hard for yourself! You must have tasted enough of the hardships of personal struggle. And it is you who became the champion of the Miss Chinese Universe competition." The best shortcut to become famous in one fell swoop and jump into the dragon's gate. Didn't you know Tang Huan a long time ago? After you get this halo, you will have the capital to climb into the bed of the richest man and join the upper class."

"I never thought about it that way." Lizhi lowered his head, his face flushed like blood, and he defended in a low voice.

Tang Huan, who was sitting behind the boss's desk, coughed lightly in embarrassment, shook the newspaper in his hand, and reprimanded angrily: "Is there such a leader as you, and your words are too unreliable."

"Where is it unreliable?" Hu Yinmeng asked unconvinced, "The little tricks between the two of you, don't think that you can hide it from the eyes of those who care. I am a **** , which woman did you have an affair with, when did it start, and how long does it take for you to soak in the rain and dew, I will help you remember."

Jin Daxia trained Lin Leyi from a waitress to a small wife who meets the standards of the upper class; Shao Daheng trained Fang Yihua from a big singer to a decisive career assistant; Tang Huan trained Hu Yinmeng from a proud and arrogant The movie star and rebellious Wenqing are cultivated into today's confidante and business woman.

Such an achievement is not something that any man can achieve.However, the results of Tang Huan's training were not perfect. For example, Hu Yinmeng would occasionally continue to be cynical and crazy for a while - even if she had a child, she could not be completely stabilized.

Tang Huan couldn't do anything about the "Tigress" in this state.He rubbed his nose, turned his eyes to the shy Li Zhi, and reassured: "No need to be nervous, Li Meishan is indeed very popular now, but your advantages still exist. During the past few years of studying in the United States, your quality has improved significantly; especially your appearance. On the one hand, it is more in line with the oriental aesthetics. Don’t feel pressured, I am very optimistic about you, go back and prepare seriously.”

Hearing the meaning behind the words, Li Zhi agreed with a heart-wrenching heart, and then quickly walked out of the office.

"I'm not mistaken, you are very satisfied with this candidate, and nothing can escape my mother's eyes." Hu Yinmeng triumphantly picked up the cup and took a sip.

"I need to find a spokesperson for some industries in the mainland." Tang Huan said leisurely: "This candidate is just as hard to think about as the champion of your Miss Chinese International Contest. Knowing the basics and loyalty is the minimum requirement. In addition, you must Possess some qualities, such as a basic understanding of the situation in the Mainland, a certain degree of international vision, a relatively detached status, considerable popularity, etc. If Lizhi becomes the champion of this year's Miss Chinese International Contest, then she will undoubtedly meet the requirements just now. "

"You always have the most righteous reason." Hu Yinmeng snorted, "You must attend the final of the [-]nd Miss Chinese Universe Contest."

"Sure, sure." Tang Huan laughed, "Now that you're back, I don't have to stare at DreamWorks all the time. I have to make preparations to go to the Soviet Union. In such a vast space, there is no chance of an open field trip. Not many."

At this time, the assistant sent in an invitation letter and explained: "Hong Kong Governor Youde hosted a banquet for political and business celebrities, so I invited you, boss."

"Political and business celebrities?" Tang Huan frowned, "Do you know who else will be present?"

The assistant understood the subtext, so he nodded and said: "According to our inquiries, Shen Bi, the chairman of the board of directors of HSBC, the former financial secretary, Peng Lizhi, who has always represented the interests of the Swire Group, and other figures will definitely be present. "

"What kind of tricks do Youde want to do? Are you planning to swim in muddy water?" Tang Huan snorted to himself.
