After seeing the news in the newspaper, Li Mubai just smiled. Li Mubai had already reached a state of immunity to these comments.
"Mr. Cha, this is the outline of my next novel." Li Mubai came to Ming Pao just as the article was being discussed in newspapers.
"Are you going to find someone to write for you, or...?" Jin Daxia was a little confused and didn't understand what Li Mubai meant.
"Hey." Li Mubai sighed softly and said: "Mr. Cha, I built a factory somewhere in Tuen Mun, and now I have no time to work on anything. Let alone novels, I don't even have much time to write scripts. .”
The personal relationship between Li Mubai and Jin Daxia was sincere, and last time Jin Daxia provided Li Mubai with a help of five million, Li Mubai sent a check for eight million as soon as he returned to Xiangjiang.
Although Daxia Jin was very surprised, he did not ask why. He had already seen that Li Mubai was not destined to be bound in the circle of novels. However, Daxia Jin still had other ideas about Li Mubai. As he got older, As we get older, the development of the newspaper industry becomes increasingly difficult. Jin Daxia is always looking for a successor.
Although Li Mubai's ambition is not here, Jin Daxia feels that Li Mubai can make Mingpao reach a higher level. In particular, Li Mubai's business acumen is what Jin Daxia values very much.
Taking this opportunity, Jin Daxia said bluntly: "Little friend Mubai, I have a heartfelt request. I hope you can come to Mingpao as a deputy editor-in-chief. What do you think?"
"What?" Li Mubai almost jumped up on his chair and said with his head shaking like a rattle: "Mr. Cha, let's not talk about whether I understand this industry or not. I don't have that much energy right now. You You also know that I own Oriental Dream Factory, which now has an additional smelting plant, and Mr. Guo and I also jointly opened a shipping company. Mr. Cha, do you think I still have the energy to serve as the deputy editor-in-chief? "
"He who is capable has to work hard." Jin Daxia finally saw that there is no profit trend, this guy will definitely not nod. No matter Li Mubai writes novels or scripts, his disappearance will promote himself as a businessman. And businessmen gradually Li, this is an unchangeable reality. Immediately, Daxia Jin threw out a bait and said: "What if I let you buy 20% of the shares?"
Twenty percent of Ming Pao shares?
This temptation is definitely not small for Li Mubai.
He sat down quietly and searched in his mind for the future development of Ming Pao. He found that this suggestion was really good, and the profits in it were also huge. What does a businessman pursue? The first thing is profit.
In addition, owning a newspaper can also help him in his career and give him a mouthpiece. This is all beneficial and harmless to Li Mubai, but 20% of the shares is a little bit Shao, this guy has always been greedy, especially when Daxia Jin took the initiative to send it to his door.
"If it's 40%, I can seriously consider it." In one sentence, this guy's profit-seeking face was immediately exposed.
However, who is Jin Daxia? How could he take advantage of Li Mubai like this? Ming Pao is also his hard work. "Twenty-five percent, this is my limit."
"Less than 35% is useless to me." Like the vegetable farmer, Li Mubai started bargaining directly, regardless of his own status.
"Thirty percent, definitely not one more percentage point." Jin Daxia finally saw that this guy was definitely not a fuel-efficient guy. But it was precisely because of this that Jin Daxia chose Li Mubai.
"Deal!" Li Mubai also knew very well that this should be Jin Daxia's final limit. It would be too much to continue to argue. Immediately, the two of them finalized the share of the shares and the transfer price.
When it was time to finalize the contract, Li Mubai discovered that he still lacked a lawyer in his team. Situations like this would happen frequently in the future, and not having a dedicated lawyer was really troublesome.
Thinking of this, Li Mubai asked Jin Daxia to recommend a law firm. In addition to himself, he also has an entertainment company under him. Many lawsuits and operations in the future will require an excellent team of lawyers.
Although Kai Tak Law Firm is not very well-known in Hong Kong, Daxia Jin gave this team a very high evaluation. Not only is this team very thorough in their research on law, but they are also very good at handling economic and civil issues.
Very proficient. The most important thing is that this team has a good reputation, and Huo Qide is also one of the few friends of Daxia Jin.
Jin Daxia's character is still worthy of trust and recognition. Although Li Mubai has not conducted any investigation into this law firm, Li Mubai made a decision on the spot.
Not long after, Li Mubai met Huo Qide in Daxia Jin's office. It must be said that the chief lawyer left a very good impression on Li Mubai.
Immediately, Li Mubai stated that he was willing to cooperate with Fok Qide. From now on, all Longteng's property business in Xiangjiang would be handled by Qide Law Firm, and Huo Qide also became Li Mubai's queen lawyer.
After finalizing the matter with lawyers and Ming Pao, good news also came from McKinsey.
A week ago, Li Mubai contacted Qiao Sen, the head of McKinsey Xiangjiang, hoping that he could help find several secretaries or assistants.
In addition to having a professional management team, McKinsey also has a headhunting business. Whether it is because Li Mubai is a client of McKinsey or because of his personal relationship with Qiao Sen, after learning about Li Mubai’s needs, Qiao Sen not only contacted the American
The headquarters communicated and personally helped Li Mubai identify some candidates among elites from all over the world.
Among nearly a hundred candidates, Qiao Sen selected thirty, and these thirty people included almost the elites of all industries. Whether they are secretaries or assistants, this position is not important, as long as the salary is sufficient, even if
It’s not a problem if you don’t have a job.
After bidding farewell to Daxia Jin and Lawyer Huo, Li Mubai hurried back to the office of Oriental DreamWorks. Qiao Sen sent him the information of all the candidates. Li Mubai also wanted to see how many of the thirty people were qualified.
My own assistant.
It has to be said that Qiao Sen was very attentive. Not only did these thirty people specialize in different industries, but they also belonged to different countries. Among the information on these thirty people, a woman named Diana aroused Li Mubai's interest.
.
This name is the goddess of the moon and hunting in Roman mythology, and in English it also means never marrying. However, this woman is neither British nor Roman, but a Soviet.
In addition, she also has a working experience at Qualcomm in the United States and has served as assistant to the deputy general manager for two years.
Qualcomm in the United States is a research and development company for wireless communication technology. Although it has only been established for about two years, Li Mubai is very clear about how powerful this company will be in the future.
And being able to work for such a forward-looking company for two years definitely speaks volumes about Deanna's work ability.
In the end, Li Mubai decided to try this Soviet assistant, which would also give Ye Qing a sense of danger and a sense of competitiveness. Although Li Mubai planned to create a team of secretaries, after repeated thinking, he has not yet decided
That necessity can be cultivated and excavated now.
In a flash, "Rush Hour" has been released in North America for two weeks. In addition to the worrying box office in the first two days, on the third day, the box office took a turn for the worse. In the first week of release, in North America,
It ranked tenth on the box office list, barely making it into the top ten.
After entering the second week, "Rush Hour" showed its lasting explosive power. After the ranking list of hearts came out, "Rush Hour" jumped from tenth to third place. In two weeks,
It has grossed more than 174 million US dollars at the box office.
Although there is still a gap of more than 10 million from the first place, the attendance rate of this movie in North American theaters actually reached 69%. This is a movie that has been released for two weeks.
If the movie continues to develop in this format, it is entirely possible to exceed the box office of 200 million.
Nowadays, newspapers and periodicals in Xiangjiang are full of praises, as if it was not their newspapers that originally published whether Li Mubai had encountered Waterloo.
Li Mubai simply chose to ignore these shameless newspapers and periodicals.
Until "Rush Hour" was released in North America, the film had generated a box office of US$201.96 million for Li Mubai and Golden Harvest. Including the box office in Hong Kong and Southeast Asia, the film was close to US$300 million in box office.
It's already close at hand.
This not only allowed Jiahe to clear away the previous gloom, but also gave Xiangjiang's film and television companies hope. Movies produced in Xiangjiang can also appear in Hollywood and occupy a place at the North American box office.
The congratulatory calls came like a storm, and Li Mubai's phone rang for a full day. This was when he had the charger plugged in. If the charger was not plugged in, the battery would probably run out of power in less than two hours.
.
Fortunately, Li Mubai did not only have one phone. In addition to the number that most people knew, Li Mubai also had a very personal number. Except for a few people in the capital, not many people in Xiangjiang knew this number.
In addition, Li Mubai also has a phone in Ye Qing's hand. Although this phone is relatively personal, relatively many people know about it. They are all relatively close, but there are many secrets that cannot be shared together, and
Most of these people are from the entertainment industry.
However, before Li Mubai had time to celebrate, Houston made a very important phone call. He hoped that Li Mubai could spare the time. There was a distinguished guest who wanted to meet him, and this distinguished guest came with a very important matter.
