"Good afternoon, Mr. Yao, I'm Fang Yi, I hope I didn't disturb you?"

Mrs. Shao's voice came from the phone.

"Hello, Mrs. Shao, I'm fine now. I was just about to leave the office. I didn't expect you to call me. What's the matter?"

Yao Yuan said politely.

"You still have to work on the weekend. We thought you would go to watch the Olympic Games today. Mr. Yao is really conscientious and hardworking. It's admirable."

Mrs. Shao praised it a few times.

After some polite exchanges, she got down to business.

"Look, Mr. Yao, are you free tonight? Mr. Shao wants to invite you to dinner to discuss the sale of TVB and Shaw Brothers."

"I believe you also know that neither of Shaw's two sons is willing to take over. In this case, Shaw can only transfer the control of TVB and Shaw Brothers."

"After some thought, Mr. Shao believes that letting Jiuye Investment take over TVB and Shaw Brothers should be the best option, so he wants to meet with you to finalize this matter."

Although he knew that this would definitely happen, Yao Yuan was still very excited when he heard Mrs. Shao talk about it on the phone.

For him, taking over TVB and Shaw Brothers is undoubtedly a big step towards his goal of completely controlling the public opinion front in Hong Kong Island.

Once this goal is achieved, he will be able to completely control the Hong Kong entertainment industry from then on.

There will be no more noise in the Hong Kong entertainment industry. Those scumbags with yellow skin and white hearts who have forgotten their roots will be kicked out and will never be able to make a living in the entertainment industry again.

By extension, under the repeated bombardment of the two major television stations, ATV and TVB, and with the assistance of various other news media, the public opinion field of Hong Kong society will soon be completely controlled by Yao Yuan.

Thinking of this, his eyes suddenly lit up with excitement.

Without any hesitation, he immediately responded with a smile:

"This is such wonderful news, Mrs. Shaw. To be honest, I am very eager to join TVB."

"Of course, the premise is that Mr. Shao agrees. I have always respected Mr. Shao. Fortunately, Mr. Shao finally agreed to transfer TVB."

"I have something to do now. I need to go see two teachers. How about I meet you and Mr. Shaw at 8 o'clock tonight to discuss the acquisition of TVB and Shaw Brothers?"

After a brief pause, Mrs. Shao responded.

"Okay, Mr. Yao, let's meet at 8 o'clock in the evening. Mr. Shao has a courtyard house in Jinyu Hutong. Let's meet in the courtyard. It will be more private."

"Of course, no problem. I really want to admire Mr. Shao's courtyard."

Yao Yuan said with a smile.

Afterwards, Mrs. Shao told the house number of the courtyard house and ended the call.

After hanging up the phone, Yao Yuan excitedly pumped his fists a few times.

After celebrating alone, he left the office and prepared to meet the two teachers.

Goldfish Hutong, an elegant three-courtyard house.

Mrs. Shao put down her cell phone and explained the situation to Mr. Shao who was sitting in a rattan chair nearby.

"Mr. Yao said he would come over at 8 o'clock tonight. It can be seen that he is very eager to win TVB. Can we raise the offer price a little bit?"

"You founded TVB and devoted your entire life to it. I have also worked at TVB for half my life. Now that you are suddenly selling it, I am really a little reluctant to let it go."

"To be honest, I still have some energy and can still do things. Even if I sell TVB a few years later, it will be fine. There is no need to rush."

Mr. Shao looked at her and then shook his head slightly.

"We are all old, we have to accept our age! Since we will sell TVB sooner or later, now is the best time to sell it, and Mr. Yao is the best buyer."

"The situation in the financial market is getting worse and worse. Once a financial crisis breaks out, TVB's share price will definitely plummet, and even a halving would be the least of its problems."

"By then, if we want to sell TVB again, we will definitely not be able to sell it at the current price, and no one will be willing to pay a 50% premium to acquire TVB like Mr. Yao did."

"Another point is that if TVB is sold to Mr. Yao, there will be no need for large-scale layoffs, and we can leave with dignity and a good reputation."

"More importantly, through these two days of observation, I can basically confirm that Mr. Yao's goal is to completely control the public opinion field in Hong Kong Island."

"Under such circumstances, there is no way he would let go of TVB, the largest TV station in Hong Kong Island. No one can defeat him. In this case, why don't we do him a favor?"

"Last night at the opening ceremony, Yao Sheng's position on the rostrum and what happened afterwards are enough to show that the top management absolutely supports him."

"And the most important reason is that through this transaction, I want the family foundation to establish a cooperative relationship with Yao Sheng and Jiuye Investment Group."

"Mr. Yao has the final say in the financial market of Hong Kong Island. He is highly praised for his work. I can only feel at ease if I let him help manage part of the assets of the foundation."

After hearing this, Mrs. Shao finally understood all of her husband's thoughts, and her eyes became brighter and brighter.

"That's true. It would be great if the family foundation could establish a good cooperative relationship with Jiuye Investment Group!"

"With the strong profitability of Jiuye Investment Group, it will definitely make the family foundation better and make more money."

Mr. Shao smiled softly, then nodded and said:

"If Mr. Yao is willing to help manage my family foundation, we will still make a profit even if we give TVB to him for free!"

"Mr. Yao is rich enough to rival a country. He certainly wouldn't bother to calculate the little money from the foundation and ruin his own reputation. That would be more trouble than gain."

"I need to leave a strong guarantee for you and the children. Although the children do not want to inherit the family business, as their father, I cannot pretend that I have never given birth to them."

Hearing this, Mrs. Shao fell silent, and a trace of sadness flashed across her eyes.

She and Mr. Shao have no children, but none of Mr. Shao's four children from his first wife are around, and none of them are willing to inherit the entertainment empire founded by Mr. Shao.

From this perspective, the old age of the old couple is undoubtedly somewhat sad.

The next moment, Mrs. Shao took the initiative to change the subject.

"Is what happened in that luxurious box at the Bird's Nest last night true?"

"Yao Sheng is so brave that he dares to humiliate the powerful Master Zou in front of him. It's incredible!"

Mr. Shao was stunned for a moment, then smiled and nodded.

"Of course it's true. There were several entertainment industry bosses and many other people in that box last night. It was impossible to keep it secret."

"What happened last night is by no means as simple as it seems. There may be deeper reasons, but this has nothing to do with us."

Having said this, he suddenly stopped talking and no longer discussed this topic.

On the other side, Yao Yuan's convoy soon arrived near the University of Finance and Economics.

When the convoy passed by the south gate of the University of Finance and Economics, a Mercedes-Benz parked near the school gate immediately followed and joined the convoy.

Sitting in the back seat of this Mercedes-Benz is a sexy beauty.

It was Liu Jingwen who was dressed up beautifully and was preparing to go to Zhonghai Community for a date with Yao Yuan.

But Yao Yuan called her over and asked her to accompany him to meet the two professors.

In the blink of an eye, the convoy arrived downstairs of the two professors' homes.

After making sure the scene was safe and there were no media reporters waiting nearby, Yao Yuan opened the car door and got out.

Then he took Liu Jingwen upstairs to the teacher's house.

As soon as she entered the building, Liu Jingwen whispered nervously:

"My dear, isn't it a bit inappropriate for me to visit two professors' homes empty-handed?"

"How about you wait for me for a while, I'll go to the fruit shop at the entrance of the community and buy a fruit basket, it's at least a token of my appreciation."

Yao Yuan shook his head and whispered:

"An ugly daughter-in-law has to meet her parents-in-law. You have already met my parents. Now it's time for you to meet the two teachers."

"Although the two teachers already know about our relationship and know you, you have never visited them."

"Since we have met today, let's do it today. I will tell the two teachers that I dragged you here at the last minute."

"As for buying fruit, forget it. The two teachers can't finish all the fruit at home and often give it away to the neighbors."

Before he finished speaking, Liu Jingwen pinched him lightly in anger.

"What do you mean an ugly daughter-in-law has to meet her parents-in-law? Am I really ugly?"

"By the way, why don't I see that sexy Ms. Jiang? Why isn't she with you?"

Yao Yuan's heart tightened, and he quickly explained:

"I didn't expect you also knew Jiang Meihui. She came to Beijing for work and met many foreign heads of state with me yesterday."

"Now that her work is done, she doesn't need to follow me anymore. She went to watch the Olympic Games today."

"She will fly back to Hong Kong Island on Monday. She is currently the investment director of a securities company under the group and has a lot of work to do."

After hearing his explanation, Liu Jingwen felt much more relieved.

As they were talking, they had arrived at the doorsteps of the two professors' homes.

Yao Yuan immediately went forward and knocked on the door, while Liu Jingwen quickly adjusted her hair and skirt.

A moment later, the door opened and Professor Ouyang appeared inside.

Yao Yuan casually pulled Liu Jingwen to his side and said with a smile:

"Teacher, I'd like to bring Jingwen here to get acquainted with the school. Do you mind?"

"Hello, Professor Ouyang, sorry to bother you."

Liu Jingwen said with a red face and bowed.

Professor Ouyang rolled his eyes at Yao Yuan, stepped forward, took Liu Jingwen's hand, and said with a smile:

"Such a beautiful girl, why would I mind, Jingwen, come into the house with me and ignore this brat"

As she said that, she took Liu Jingwen's hand and walked into the house.

Yao Yuan chuckled and followed him in.

Seven or eight minutes later, in the living room.

Yao Yuan opened his briefcase, took out two folders and handed them to the two professors.

“This is a report I wrote about strengthening data security and investing heavily in the digital technology and smartphone industries.”

"Please check and see if there is anything wrong so that I can correct it in time. I have to go to the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission for a meeting tomorrow and I will hand this information to Uncle Qiu then."

The two professors looked at each other and reached out to take the two folders.

"You are a man of many ideas. Why are you targeting data security and the smartphone industry? Are you planning to make some moves in these areas?"

As they spoke, the two professors opened the folder and began to look through its contents.

Yao Yuan smiled and nodded, saying with some pride:

"This is not a sudden idea, but I have planned it for a long time and have already laid out the investment."

"It's just that the scale of investment before was not large. Now it seems that we must increase investment and speed up the layout of intensity and scope."

"The first point is to build several large data centers in China to prevent the outflow of various important data..."

As he was explaining the situation, the two teachers' faces showed shock.

Needless to say, they were all shocked by the contents of the report materials in their hands.
