Rebirth of Hong Kong Island: I am a world tycoon

"Hello, are you that Huang Xiaoyi? I have seen your photo in the newspaper. The boy walked over and said to Chen Zhixue, who had just come down from Rolls-Royce.

"That's right, my name is Chen Zhixue, Huang Xiaoyi is my pen name, you are Li Ru, right?" Chen Zhixue smiled and nodded, it seems that he is really popular on Hong Kong Island, and people often know him.

"Ah, do you mean that you are interested in buying my company?" Li Ru asked in surprise, originally he thought that it was just a coincidence that he met Chen Zhixue, and the buyer had not yet come, but he didn't expect that this big guy was interested in his company.

"Yes, I'm going to enter the entertainment industry, so I'm going to start a record company to play, and I happened to see your company's listing information at HSBC, which meets my requirements. Chen Zhixue said with a smile.

"Mr. Chen, please go to the company to talk in detail. Li Ru made a gesture of please.

"Uh-huh. Chen Zhixue nodded and followed.

Passing by a few offices, although the employees are going to work normally, but their faces are full of sadness, they all know the company's situation, it has always been all dependent on the boss to advance money to support them to pay their wages, if the company sells, maybe unemployed.

In the manager's office on the 3rd floor, Chen Zhixue and Li Ru sat down opposite each other and looked around, full of photos of Li Ru and many singers with concerts as the background, including a group photo of the popular Hong Kong Island singer Xu Guanjie, of course, most of them are singers from Europe and the United States.

"I was seen as a joke by Mr. Chen, I studied in London when I was in college, although I studied management, but I prefer music, so I basically go to watch various concerts during the holidays, because I buy VIP seats, and I have the opportunity to take photos with them at every show. Li Ru smiled awkwardly.

"Very good, everyone has their own pursuits and dreams, this I support you, although you failed to start a business, after all, you have struggled for your dreams, and you may not have the opportunity to fight for your dreams in the future. Chen Zhixue replied.

"Well, Mr. Chen, let's get down to business, to tell you the truth, I'm not afraid of you lowering the price, my company has reached the most difficult time, originally this building was my private asset, and now the property rights have been sold by me to pay off my father's debts, the company needs to move within this month, or you can only pay rent, my car was mortgaged, so it can support two or three more months, so I will not easily sell at a low price, one million is my limit, if you agree with me to sell, if you don't agree I will continue to find the next one." 。 Li Ru said with a serious face.

"After you sell the company, do you have any plans?" Chen Zhixue didn't talk about the sale, but asked Li Ru a personal question.

"When the company is sold, take the money back to my dad to continue to pay off the debt, after all, the money to create this company is all from him, and then go to work to continue to help make money to pay off the debt, I am also a top student who graduated from the Cambridge University Business School, and I will accompany him to make a comeback one day!" Li Ru sighed and said.

From Li Ru's experience, Chen Zhixue can see that he is really a young man who likes pop music very much, if it weren't for the economic crisis in his family, maybe he would have been working in this industry, and after a few years, after the original atmosphere of pop songs on Hong Kong Island is getting stronger and stronger, he will definitely be able to stand in this industry, but it's a pity.

"Accompany me to inspect your company, and I'll see if it's worth the price of 1 million. Chen Zhixue stood up and said to Li Ru.

"Okay, Mr. Chen. Li Ru nodded.

From the second floor to the fifth floor, Li Ru introduced Chen Zhixue in detail, and some employees also recognized Chen Zhixue's identity along the way, and they all whispered.

Soon, Chen Zhixue's identity spread throughout the Aberdeen record company.

The album with the highest circulation is more than 6,000 copies, which is the best result of Aberdeen Records, and the lead singer is Li Ru, Chen Zhixue looked at the pricing, 15 Hong Kong dollars, that is to say, this best-selling record, the sales brought to the company are only about 100,000 Hong Kong dollars, and the profit data is even worse.

Xu Guanjie, the most popular Hong Kong Island singer in the same period, has just released the album record of "Ghost Horse Double Star", and the sales volume has reached as many as 150,000 copies, and its price is 16.5 Hong Kong dollars, with sales of nearly 3 million.

Chen Zhixue listened to Li Ru's record songs, his voice is very good, he is a very professional singer, but unfortunately the songs are average, the kind that can't be popular, no matter how professional the singing is, it is useless.

Record distribution is only one of the ways for record companies to make money, as well as concerts, advertising endorsements, etc., as long as there are results, there are many ways to make money.

"Do you still want to continue to work in this industry?" Chen Zhixue asked

, "Of course I do, but the salary at the bottom of this industry is too low, just to be a singer, not to become popular, is no different from being a porter, I may consider entering the financial industry, this industry is easier to make money, and when the family debts are paid off, maybe I can also consider returning to this industry to work hard, but I am probably not young at that time!" Li Ru's tone was very embarrassed.

Back in the office, after the two sat down, Chen Zhixue suddenly said: "In this way, I bought your company for 1 million, and in addition, how about you stay and help me take care of the company?"

"Actually, Mr. Chen, I am your fan, I have read two of your novels, I also know a little bit about your family history, I regard you as my idol, you rely on writing books to develop your business empire, and I also hope to sing to develop my career, but the reality is very cruel, then everything is just a fantasy, the current pop music environment on Hong Kong Island is really not good, so I think you need to think clearly, even if I don't sell to you, there will be companies in the same industry to merge and acquire, but the price is low, what does this industry sayThe future is very large, but it is difficult to develop in the short term. Li Ru said to Chen Zhixue seriously.

"It's rare for you to be so honest, don't worry, I don't do things that I'm not sure of, I want 1 million, and I won't negotiate with you, and you, I pay a salary of 10,000 Hong Kong dollars a month to hire you as the head of the company, you should also know the news that I am a shareholder of TVB, there are a lot of music producers over there, and you also have the opportunity to sing some better songs, and it is difficult for you to get this salary as a newcomer to work in a financial company, how about it? Chen Zhixue said with a smile.

"Okay, I agree!" Of course, Li Ru hopes to continue to work in the industry he likes, and now that the company has been sold, he can also get a job with a good salary, what more could he want!
