I haven't been a boss for many years

"no problem."

"I will inform the students."

That night.

eight o'clock.

Princess Margaret Hospital, inpatient department, in a VIP ward, Hong Tianyi was wearing a hospital gown, lying on the bed, waking up slowly, and opened his eyelids forcefully.

I saw his eyelids tremble twice, his blurred vision gradually cleared up, and he saw the world again.

"head"

"it hurts!"

He saw the blue quilt covering his body, the frame of the hospital bed, and the hanging bottle on his right. He also felt that his head was heavy, wrapped in a circle of tape, and his body was a little stiff.

His eyes slowly turned to the left, and he saw a well-proportioned, standard man in a black suit, holding a butterfly knife in his hand.

Peeling the apples in circles.

"Patter."

Zhang Guobin lightly swung the butterfly knife, put down Erlang's legs, handed over an apple, and said, "Are you awake?"

Hong Tianyi recognized the person in front of him, quickly propped up his body, and leaned on the bed, but his consciousness was a little fuzzy: "Zhang Guobin?"

"Boss Zhang!"

He felt like a dream.

This kind of person who is worth tens of billions and all-powerful can only be read in the newspaper, why is he in the ward?

Zhang Guobin didn't care about the other party's offense, he shook his head with a light smile, waited until the other party took the apple, shrugged his shoulders, and said in his mouth: "I didn't expect that one day I would peel apples for the police, and I was still a student policeman." .”

"But, Yi, you did a good job!"

The female head nurse said, "Student Hong, Mr. Zhang visited the injured student policeman at the hospital at four o'clock in the afternoon. He didn't eat until the scene."

"Listen to the doctor, if you wake up, I will wait by the bedside for you."

Hong Tianyi took a bite of the apple, and the fructose in his mouth clearly told him that it was not a dream!

He came back to his senses and said emotionally, "Thank you, Mr. Zhang."

"Thank you!"

Zhang Guobin said: "I should thank you for letting Xiangjiang celebrate the first National Day in history. I am proud of you!"

"I will pay for the medical expenses of the police academy cadets. Afterwards, each person will have a subsidy, five thousand Hong Kong dollars. Not much, it's a little bit of kindness."

"I greeted Sir Cai, you can take it."

Not too much, not too little.

Hong Tianyi did not refuse, and said with a smile:

"Mr. Zhang is worried."

"The police force has always supported the Chinese Chamber of Commerce. The Chinese Chamber of Commerce should do its best. If you don't want to be a policeman in the future, come to the company to find me at any time." Zhang Guobin stood up.

He says so to everyone.

This group of talents are hired by the company, making a steady profit without losing money, but Hong Tianyi did not answer. In fact, most of them chose to continue training in the police academy

I want to be a policeman in the future!

He didn't stay any longer, and before he left, he said, "By the way, Sir Cai put the awarding ceremony in a week's time. When you are all discharged from the hospital, I will present you with medals in person."

the next day.

in the afternoon.

Peninsula Hotel.

Liu Wenyan sat on the chair with an excited tone and said excitedly: "Zhang Sheng, Cai sir, yesterday's marching ceremony was very beautiful!"

"The viewership rate of the rebroadcast reached 89%, and the viewership rate of today's rebroadcast is still 70%. It can be said that the one billion compatriots in China know about it."

"My boss has invited Sir Cai to the mainland to chat and have a vacation. I wonder if Sir Cai has time recently?"

Cai Jinping and Zhang Guobin sat aside.

"Can!"

"But it's not easy for me to leave the country. Approval, offshore, and work arrangements will take the middle of next month at the earliest." Cai sir was wearing a suit and stirring coffee.

Liu Wenyan nodded: "The country will prepare for the reception. How about Mr. Zhang? Do you have any ideas about returning to China?"

This return is not an investment.

May be tenure.

Zhang Guobin thought about it for a while, and said conservatively: "I have the idea of ​​going back to China, but the main thing is to take a walk.

"Looking for the ancestors?"

Liu Wenyan smiled and said, "Where is Zhang Shengzu from?"

In the 80s, there were very few Hong Kong businessmen who returned to work in China, even if they were nominally idle. First, the foreign environment did not allow it, and second, they were worried about the country...

The gentleman does not stand under the wall.

Zhang Guobin likes to do things for the country, and also likes to make money in the country, but he doesn't like to be involved in disputes, he just needs to be an entrepreneur.

What's more, he will go to San Francisco next year. After a long stay, he may have to hold a green card, and he will be easily scolded for holding a domestic position.

Finding one's ancestors was a very popular method in the 80s and 90s, used by both Taiwanese and Hong Kong businessmen.

Can fully express loyalty and determination inwardly.

Zhang Guobin was not born in any well-known clan in his previous life, but a well-to-do family in a prefecture-level city, so he didn't want to recognize more ancestors.

"My ancestors are from Guangdong Province, but the genealogy has long been lost, and I vaguely remember that they are from Foshan." Zhang Guobin said with a smile: "At the end of the year, I will arrange time to go to Guangcheng and Foshan.

He is not looking for relatives.

After all, the family in his previous life had been investigated early, and it didn't exist at all. He planned to take a trip, donate some money, and just pretend to go home.

Liu Wenyan didn't know, and thought that Zhang Guobin really wanted to find his ancestors, so he nodded with a smile: "Okay, then I will walk with you one by one."

He can understand Zhang Sheng's second best.

I even feel that Zhang Sheng's choice is right.

Zhang Guobin thought for a while, and suddenly said: "You know about the chaos on October 97. I would like to suggest that my hometown issue the "Safety Regulations" after [-] and give the police some powers, which may better maintain law and order. "

Liu Wenyan thought for a while, and said: "I will explain the situation to the country, but the legal matters are out of my control. If the public will support it, the police will support it.

"It shouldn't be too difficult.

The system will remain unchanged for five to ten years. It does not mean that regulations cannot be added. As long as there is no problem with the general direction and it is for the development of Xiangjiang, the probability of passing it is very high.

Cai Jinping brightened his eyes and praised: "If there are relevant laws and regulations, after 97, Xiangjiang will definitely be better."

……

A week later.

Police Training School, Great Hall.

Hong Tianyi was wearing the uniform of a police officer, with gauze on his head, stepping forward, stepping up to the podium step by step, standing at attention and saluting: "Sir!"

Cai Jinping, dressed in the uniform of the Chief of Police, stood at attention first, then took a medal from the tray in the hands of the ceremonial police, and put it on Hong Tianyi's chest with his own hands: "In recognition of your outstanding achievements in the police training school, and on the National Day For your outstanding performance in the tribute, I will specially award you the Excellent Medal of Police Academy Members!"

"Thank you, sir!" Hong Tianyi stood at attention and saluted, and shouted loudly. There was warm applause from the audience. The 150 students who participated in the ceremony, wearing the celebration medals collectively, sat in their seats and applauded.

Chapter 722 Old place, old man and hometown.

In 1991, Hong Tianyi graduated from the Police Academy, won the Silver Flute Award, and joined the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the General Administration. In 1997, he was promoted to Chief Inspector and transferred to the West Kowloon Police Station. In 2005, he was appointed as the Director of the West Kowloon Police Station. In 2019, he was appointed as the Police Force Operation Deputy Director.

During the 19-year incident, he insisted on a tough policy and safeguarded Hong Kong's law and order. In the same year, he was promoted to the Commissioner of Police. During his 30-year police career, he has experienced military exploits and is known as the first brother of the Eagle Faction.

……

end of this month.

Wen Qiren was promoted to Chief Superintendent. At the age of 32, he was the youngest Chief Superintendent of the General Administration. The next step will be the rank of Director.

Hutchison Building.

Zhang Guobin put a copy of the video on the table, and said aloud, "Ah Qiang, when "Ancient Feeling Boy" needs action scenes, you can edit this copy."

Wearing a suit, Liu Weiqiang picked up the tape and looked puzzled: "Boss, the filming of the scene has already been finished and we are currently editing it.

"do not worry."

The corner of Zhang Guobin's mouth raised a smile: "I won't wipe your hands on purpose to create, I just think these pictures can be used by you."

"Where did you get the picture?"

Liu Weiqiang asked.

"You'll know when you go back and have a look." Zhang Guobin didn't say anything.

night.

In the editing hall of the studio, Liu Weiqiang inserted the video tape into the player, and saw the chaotic battle of thousands of people appearing on the screen, the scene was fierce, and his eyes widened.

"This is, this is the scene of blood on Queen's Road!"

This scene was directly filmed by the police in the newspaper. Unexpectedly, the video tape would actually fall into his hands. If the scene was cut into it, and a few flashbacks and contrasts were made, the quality of the entire movie would be greatly improved. But without it, the authenticity of I Thousand Bloods cannot be performed by the actors.

Director Liu Da stayed up all night in the studio for a few letters and successfully edited the clip into the movie.

December NO.30, "Ancient Feeling Boy" was released on Christmas, and won 3100 million box office during the Shengtiao schedule. The movie became popular in East Asia and became the most influential gang movie in Chinese film history. It's a cool thing to be in the eyes of the youngsters.

But Zhang Guobin was not fascinated by money. At the end of the movie, it clearly states the number of deaths due to violations of crimes every year, and warns students not to mess around.

At the same time, the major clubs also shut out the youngsters who want to be in the world and pretend to be cool. It's not because the clubs are out of kindness, but Xiangjiang doesn't have the same environment as it used to.

It is too late for the major associations to do their jobs properly, and the manpower for the sidelines has been overstaffed early, and those with the ability to lay off staff have been laid off early, who would accept such an old-fashioned boy to get started?There is no place to use it, and not being able to make money is a trivial matter. If you are in trouble, the boss has to pay for the first drink, and no one wants negative equity.

The fad is over, the students are getting older, and they have a deeper understanding of the world, and gradually no one yearns for the world anymore. Is it because the air-conditioning in Central is not cold enough, or the pretty girls in Mong Kok are not beautiful enough. If you have a good life, who likes to mess around? .

Facts have proved that it will never be a certain film and television work, comics that affect an era.It is the economic and cultural environment of the society.

...

"Mr. Zhang, do you really want to invest in my comic company?" Niu Lao sat in the office of Haoyi Culture Company, with a cigarette dangling in his hand, and the ashtray on the table was filled with cigarette butts, looking at the big boss in front of him, Unbelievable: "How much do you plan to invest?"

"It's not investing in your comic company, it's investing in you." Zhang Guobin mentioned Erlang's legs, holding a cigar in his right hand, and corrected: "The equity of Haoyi Culture is too complicated. Chen Kelin, Wen Jianhong, Qiu Ruixin, Lun The four shareholders of Yuguo will only divide money, not make money."

"I can give you 300 million Hong Kong dollars, let you set up a company alone, and be your own boss, how about it?"

Niu Lao was surprised: "300 million?"

He has been working for his master for the first half of his life, drawing a cartoon for tens of Hong Kong dollars, and the income of a cartoon from beginning to end is less than [-].

It takes less than a year to create a comic, and the average income is still wrong. There is no surplus, but there is a chance to make a small profit. I set up Haoyi Culture with seven shareholders and worked alone. I thought I could earn less, but I found out that the cooperation between the shares No contradiction.

That is also the root cause of the slow closure of Haoyi Culture in history. 800 million is a lot of money to me.

Liu Weiqiang raised his eyebrows and laughed out loud, "Is that enough?"

"That's right, you can buy a sports car. How can someone without ambition be satisfied? But the first investment can only be 800 million, and the previous publishing house is growing."

"You can't continue chasing investment, I hope he can let you pay less." Zhang swallowed, and asked, "What are the terms of the contract?"

Liu Weiqiang flicked the cigarette ash with a smile, and said quickly, "You want [-]% of the publishing house's dividend, including the right to adapt comics, films and animations."

"As for sales royalties, [-]% goes to them."

In the late 80s, the main income of comics was royalties. There were no film and television adaptations in the 90s, and animation adaptations were not until the 00s.

Yes, Liu Weiqiang doesn’t have DreamWorks or Oriental Digital Realm on his banner, and he doesn’t have the production level of movies and comics at all.

Compared with movie box office, animation ratings, and royalties, it cannot be said to be a small profit. Giving up [-]% without the right to adapt it is a very cost-effective deal.

Mrs. Zhang didn't move.

"There are no comics, film and television, and animation adaptations. The contract is not a bit harsh." I said, "Maybe we can establish a gambling agreement."

"If the sales volume of the manga has reached a certain level, then you can adapt it for film and television, and the right to adapt the animation belongs to you." According to Liu Weiqiang's vision, I am not the boss of the company, but a low-level manager.

Yan Xiang is also the first author of Xiangjiang to push back the adaptation of comics and movies, and the author with the lowest adaptation rate of his works. He has long seen the background of the adaptation market.
