1980 My Entertainment Era

Chapter 140 Xiangjiang Plan~
It just so happens that there is some business in Pengcheng and Xiangjiang. You can go over there and help me make some money.

Xia Tian didn't tell them to go out and avoid disaster.

I just have to call every now and then to check on the situation and remind them: Don't cause trouble, you'll be businessmen over there, you'll have to be mature, and you can't be aggressive...

Many of my friends don't have any serious problems, but they have always been involved in fights. But when I was in trouble, these people helped me.

You can't just watch them go to jail for three to five years, or even ten to eight years for some minor crimes, can you?
It’s better to go to the forefront of the tide of the times to make money.

I'm already old enough, and it's not a good idea to keep hanging around here.

In Hong Kong, electronic watches, jeans, bat shirts, bell-bottom pants, sunglasses...some of them are in short supply.

I have already asked Lou Xiao'e to help. When the time comes, after Pengcheng receives the goods, they will sell them to the Magic City and Yanjing in the north.

I have provided the capital and the solution.

How much they can accomplish in the end depends on their abilities.

……

On September 9, when the first specialized production unit, Yanjing Television Studio, the predecessor of the Television Drama Art Center, was established, Xia Tian also received a letter from the editorial department of October, inviting him to the editorial department for a meeting.

At that time, the status of literature in the country was extremely high.

One writer later recalled: When a young author returned to his hometown with honors from Yenching University, he was "the hope of the whole village."

Provincial and municipal leaders came to the train station to welcome us, it was like walking on the red carpet!
The treatment that the big stars of later generations received is the same as the treatment that the famous writers receive today.

All kinds of literary gatherings, seminars, symposiums...all over the world, they are held wherever the scenery is beautiful.

They are all publicly funded, and they are all good places like sanatoriums.

Among the literary publications, some are of particular importance.

At a national literary journal discussion meeting, an editor described it this way:

“Harvest” can be called Laodan because of her maturity and steadiness.

"Huacheng" is graceful, lively and fresh, and is called Huadan.

"Contemporary" called her Zhengdan because of her self-righteousness.

"October" is called Qingyi for its freshness and elegance.

The literary journal "Four Famous Dan Actresses" got its name from this and became widely circulated.

For example, Harvest was endorsed by Mr. Ba Jin, and the first issue published Lao She's Teahouse, which was a very high starting point.
In addition, there are "People's Literature", "Zhongshan" and "Tianya"...

"People's Literature" is the "national team" and is a magazine that was founded one month after the founding of the People's Republic of China.

The first editor-in-chief, Mr. Mao Dun, asked the teacher to write an inscription: "I hope more good works will be published."

In the 186s, People's Literature had a record monthly circulation of 1.7 million copies, but by the turn of the millennium, it had fallen to a low of only copies. After that, it became an "industry secret."

October invites you, so you have to go there in the summer. An old wooden building on Dongxinglong Street...

The editor was very enthusiastic. The only regret was that Teacher Jinghongke's identity had already been made public, at least everyone in the literary circles at Yenching knew about it.

It didn't work!
Xia Tian originally thought that he was called in to revise the manuscript.

I didn’t expect it to be a big deal, and Xia Tian got the manuscript approved in just half an hour.

Actually, there is nothing wrong with it. The main reason is that revising manuscripts is considered a benefit for writers these days - business trips are funded by the government, and food and accommodation are provided with subsidies!
If this were a writer from outside the area, it would take him half a month to revise it!
Of course, I don’t have that kind of mood in the summer.

He has something very important to do recently - the arrangements in Hong Kong are finally going to start!

More than two months ago, Hollyli and her daughter were scared by the driver's horn and it was Xia Tian who pulled the frightened donkey back.

It was also at that time that he met the Huo family father and daughter, mainly Huo Lili.

Mr. Huo is of such high status that my little matter is not enough to waste his time by standing in front of him.

Mainly, we don't have that kind of relationship...

The father and daughter came here because of what was going to happen next - our negotiations with the declining British Empire regarding Hong Kong!
Xia Tian didn't know much about Hong Kong.

Especially now in the early 1980s, I only knew some rumors about the entertainment industry.

But there is one thing that I know for sure - the Iron Lady has fallen.

This female politician, who was awarded the title of Iron Lady for her iron-blooded suppression of workers, suffered a major setback during this negotiation.
And this negotiation is about Hong Kong...

From the beginning to now, Hong Kong has been occupied for sixty years. A lot of things have happened there...

Over the years, many people have become "citizens of Great Britain", so there will definitely be a wave of shock when the news comes out.

In summer, we must take advantage of this wave of vibration to earn our first pot of gold!

In fact, even if there was no Holly, Xia Tian had already found Lou Xiao'e.

A few months ago, he had already started asking Lou Xiao'e and Lao Pai Luo to start preparations.

Now with Holly, there are more choices.

……

"Old Palo, how are the preparations going?" Xia Tian called. It was an international call!

"Don't worry! One hundred thousand dollars is ready!" "Thank you!"

"Why are you being polite? I trust your judgment and am willing to take a gamble with you!"

Xia Tian only has more than 70,000 yuan here, and the remaining 30,000 yuan is Lao Pai Luo’s share, but he is willing to take a gamble with Xia Tian.

"Sister Xiao'e, what's going on?" Xia Tian called Xiangjiang again.

"As you said, I won't sell it for less than 33 yuan. A friend of my dad's bought it for yuan."

She was talking about an antique jar that she brought to Hong Kong through Lou Xiao'e in the summer to raise some funds. She also had RMB 30,000.

At that time, Xia Tian told her, "I won't sell the jar for less than 300,000 yuan. If you really can't find a solution, call Li Heizi. I know him well."

Why not let Director Li buy it?
10 USD + 33 HKD, plus hundreds of thousands from Holly Holly, plus several times the leverage...it's almost there!
On September 9, the Iron Lady arrived.

On the 24th, the two sides began talks.

The Falklands War came to an end three months ago.

A lean camel is bigger than a horse, and Britain won.

With this great victory, the Iron Lady tried to refuse to return it.

The chief architect said: "There is no room for maneuver on this issue. Frankly speaking, sovereignty is not an issue that can be discussed. Now the time is ripe and it should be clearly affirmed..."

During the talks, he put forward the great policy of "one country, two systems".

The Iron Lady thought she had seen the world after suppressing the G people who were organizing activities, but the two-hour meeting made her see what it meant to be a leader who emerged from the flames of war!

The Iron Lady was stunned and fell on the stone steps as she walked out of the Great Hall.

The stock market and housing market in Hong Kong also fell in response to the Iron Lady!

There is nothing you can do about the housing market in the summer, but you can make some money in the stock market - you have already shorted it five times!

Every noon in the summer, I would go to the business hall in the long-distance building to make long-distance calls, contact Lou Xiao'e and Huo Lili, and follow the trend of the Hang Seng Index.

This lasted for more than ten days! Many staff members in the business hall knew Xia Tian!

When Xia Tian learned that the market index had fallen below 700 points, he asked them to sell all their short positions and then buy the Hang Seng Index to rise.

As for whether to buy the overall market or leading stocks, to be honest, Xia only knows a little bit, so it is better to leave it to the professional traders over there.

Holly was still talking on the phone: "Thanks to you, I told my father about your analysis of the property market. Yesterday he praised me highly and said that it helped me avoid a big loss..."

Speaking of which, many people have the ability to judge the direction of events, including Mr. Huo.

But I didn’t expect it to be so severe... No matter how far-sighted you are, can you see as far as Xia Tian?
No matter how great a stock god is, can his information about the apocalypse be as accurate as that of God?

Oh, by the way, you can’t compare with those American stock gods on Capitol Hill. After all, they directly manipulate the prices... This thing is a bit like our lottery, and it has special attacks against those who are reborn!

This time, the Hong Kong stock market plummeted, and the Hang Seng Index directly fell to one-third of its peak.

Add five times leverage...the profit is almost thirteen or fourteen times!
My own assets are about to swell to 7 or 8 million Hong Kong dollars!
Even Laopaluo earned nearly $40 in profits - the exchange rate of the Hong Kong dollar against the US dollar fell, and the profits shrank.

Lou Xiao'e should have gained no less than myself.

Her family had a lot of money, and she was favored, so she had money in her hands, but she didn't know how much to invest.

And Hollyli was even more unexpected than Xia Tian expected.

Xia Tian felt that Mr. Huo was a bit old-fashioned and had very strict family education. Besides, he was still young, so Huo Lili probably didn't have much money on hand.

As a result, Xia Tian knew what a rich and wealthy family was. He had saved two or three million yuan in pocket money over the years!

And more than half of it has been invested!

Xia Tian: Good guy, you are so cruel!

Haha, there is really no need to deal in antiques, furniture, speculation, or foreign exchange certificates.
However, we cannot just leave these 7 million like this, as there will be opportunities later.

According to Tianqi's information, the Hong Kong government will soon issue a decree to stabilize the Hong Kong dollar exchange rate.

Therefore, after the summer, this money will be invested in the Hang Seng stock market, and the market will increase sixfold in the next five years.

In other words, if you invest five million now, it will be thirty million in five years!

The reason why the money was not transferred back before was because of similar considerations.

There is no use in transferring it back, I can only keep it in the bank, and it is too eye-catching.

Moreover, once you transfer money in, you can’t transfer it out. The RMB will then depreciate for many years, causing huge losses.

I remember that in 87, the US stock market had a big crash, which brought down the stock markets around the world, so we had to withdraw early...

Wait for the US stock market to fall through and then buy in. It was a bull market until the Internet bubble burst in the new century...

And what about the little days that come after that!
The Plaza Accord should have been in 85, right? Buy high first and sell short later, and you will have a good time!

By then, we will have assets in China, Hong Kong and the United States.

In short, a cunning rabbit has three burrows!

(The specific changes and games of the Hang Seng Index took several months, so I will simplify it here. After all, this is not a business war and stock market article.)
