Chapter 585 Flowering inside and outside

These days, cultural work is struggling, and the national economy and people's livelihood cannot be taken care of. The investment in the cultural field is very limited.

Moreover, in terms of cultural work, he has a close relationship with Wang Yuanchao.

When Wang Yuanchao was in the Railway Art Troupe, he created many excellent works, and the cultural department was heavily involved.

The cultural system can be regarded as Wang Yuanchao’s mother’s system.

So Wang Yuanchao wants to donate money to the cultural system. Although it cannot compare with the lavish spending of other departments, it is better than having nothing, right?
Of course, this donation is not given directly, but a traditional cultural fund is established with a quota and a scope of use, which is jointly managed by both parties.

The application is submitted from the mainland and approved by Hong Kong (that is, Wang Yuanchao himself), or the application is submitted from Hong Kong (there will also be crews going north to shoot and exchange) and approved by the mainland.

The fund is tentatively set at US$1000 million.

After the quota is used up, we will see what happens next based on the sponsorship results.

The fund will use US dollars for expenditures, and the expenses of the project will be converted into RMB by the corresponding places in the future. In this way, various places will support the project more and earn foreign exchange.

With this cultural fund, it will be a natural thing for Wang Yuanchao to set up an agency within the system and connect with the world.

Reform and open up, look at the world with an open mind, and explore step by step.

Wang Yuanchao dispatched people from the United States and Hong Kong to set up this brokerage company. It didn't matter whether it made money or not, as long as they could help him take care of his people.

There were only two people in the agency at the moment, one was He Qing, who was the jealous one, and the other was Jet Li.

In 82, before the release of "Shaolin Temple 2", Jet Li was training in the unit as usual, but during the training, his leg was broken and his athletic career ended.

Originally, his company didn't want to let him go. A company in Hong Kong offered 300 million to invite Jet Li to make a movie. Another agency even communicated with Jet Li's company, offering 5 per movie for a 5-year contract. This is simply a goose that lays golden eggs.

But in the system, unit leaders have no say.

Just staring at that little bit of profit!

Boss Wang has already set up a 1000 million US dollar fund and is recruiting some good talents, and you guys are still complaining.

The Hualong brokerage company they set up is based in the mainland, and they specially hired professional talents from outside to run it. They can also export labor services and get considerable remuneration. Even the taxes they pay are more than your tiny profits.

With the intervention of the system, Jet Li successfully resigned from his original unit and joined Hualong Brokerage Company, becoming the second actor artist under the company.

As for the rest, it is up to the agency to handle it.

There is great potential in the vast overseas market.

Yes, if the agency wants to make a profit, it must sell its business abroad. Can the TV stations in the mainland afford it? Or can the cinemas afford it?
Why wasn’t Zhu Lin absorbed in?
Let’s talk about it after she gives birth to the baby!
Besides, we have to give He Qing more room to grow and mature, right?

A few days later, young Grandma Liu smelled the scent and came over specially.

Seeing the other person dressed exquisitely but still crawling hard, He Qing was really young and her skills were far behind.

But people can’t just eat the fresh and tender blanched food, they also have to try the rich flavors of Sichuan and Hunan cuisine, right?
Wang Yuanchao was very relaxed. He stretched out his hand and pinched a few handfuls of snow. He said:

"This agency is an experiment. I don't know if it will succeed or not. You are already the most famous actress in the mainland. Why take the risk?"

Liu Xiaoqing continued to work hard for a while with a charming look in her eyes. She knew that he liked it. Then she said:
"I have consulted Director Li, and he said that this is a relatively mature mechanism in the West and Hong Kong. We also need to keep up with the international standards. I want to give it a try. I won't blame you if I lose."

Liu Xiaoqing stared at Wang Yuanchao with burning eyes for a few seconds.

Wang Yuanchao just shook his thigh, and the other party continued obediently.

I didn't expect that this woman would actually ask Li Hanxiang for advice.

In fact, Wang Yuanchao simply wanted to keep the position of the top sister vacant and leave it to Zhu Lin in the future.

Although Grandma Liu is not easy to deal with, she is Sister Jinsuo’s predecessor!

But they are working so hard. As the first mainland economic company to take the plunge, shouldn’t Hualong be able to produce a few successes?

Wang Yuanchao growled, and the other party came close to him.

It's another big business worth several hundred million.

"Okay, since you're so brave, why can't I agree to it? But you have to abide by the company's rules, understand?"

"Yeah." The other party hummed while cleaning up the battlefield.

This woman is very powerful. Once she gets hold of someone's vital points, she won't let go and will force you to obey her wishes.

Joining the agency is only one reason. The second reason is that after all, their tunnel is already muddy today and has not been explored yet!
……

Wang Yuanchao returned to Hong Kong and immediately plunged into his busy work.

I didn't go to see Yazhi or Rosamund Kwan as I did in the past, after all, I had already let off some steam in the mainland.

In recent years, the charter king wanted to go ashore and sold ships wantonly, even willing to dismantle some tankers and sell them for scrap metal. He took over part of the huge fleet from the charter king. Borneo is isolated overseas, and ocean-going ships are indispensable for domestic and international transportation. Even so, he could only take over part of the charter king's shipping business.

The entire Hong Kong began another major turmoil due to its uncertain future, and both the stock market and the property market fell to the bottom.

Misfortunes never come singly. First, a typhoon hit, killing 22 people. Then the Hong Kong dollar plummeted 60% against the US dollar, with 1 US dollar being exchanged for 9.6 Hong Kong dollars.

Even so, there is a limit on exchange, which has caused the US dollar and gold to be speculated at higher prices on the black market. People are desperately spending Hong Kong dollars, fearing that they will suddenly become less valuable.

As prices skyrocketed and the market became too chaotic, the Hong Kong authorities set the guiding exchange rate for the U.S. dollar to the Hong Kong dollar at 1 to 7.8.

It is not that the government sets a certain exchange rate, but that ordinary people or companies will exchange money according to that exchange rate.

The authorities contacted several wealthy businessmen and discussed how to stabilize the market and prevent chaos.

Wang Yuanchao was naturally happy to accept the invitation. On the surface, he has always been a good friend and staunch ally of the Hong Kong British authorities. He is not too deeply involved with the United States and the West.

First of all, Hang Lung Bank’s cash flow is tight and it needs a capital injection of HK$17 billion.

The authorities still hope that a big businessman will take over. If the bank goes bankrupt, it will be a serious economic crisis, and this trend must not spread.

The authorities are currently facing financial constraints and relying on their own strength is not enough.

Because land prices have plummeted and land cannot be sold, where does the government get the money?
Under the current circumstances, no big businessman dared to take over the real money. If they took it, if the British ran away immediately, no one could predict what would happen next.

Others rely on vision and gamble, but Wang Yuanchao looks at the cards clearly, so of course he is very confident.

So, reluctantly and without hesitation, he took over Hang Lung Bank.

Wang Yuanchao had been waiting for this opportunity for a long time.

HSBC's support behind the scenes is like a money printing machine, with almost unlimited ammunition of Hong Kong dollars. Naturally, I buy, buy, buy. Others are afraid, but I am greedy.

HSBC was not afraid that he would not be able to pay it back. This time, not only was there a guarantee from the authorities, but HSBC also knew that he was one of the behind-the-scenes operators of Borneo and had a large amount of assets in Europe and the United States.

But in fact, the manipulator behind the Pura Kingdom was just Wang Yuanchao himself. He borrowed the tiger skin of the United States and the fox skin of the United Kingdom, that's all.

The wealthy Wang Yuanchao not only acquired Hang Lung Bank, but also sent Pacific Industrial to attack everywhere to help the authorities and buy a lot of land at low prices.

Even Wheelock & Co. and its more than 200 subsidiaries were swallowed up in one fell swoop.

Wheelock & Co.'s main business is shipping. In addition, it also involves real estate, retail, manufacturing, steel, insurance, finance and trade. Its retail brand Lane Crawford is particularly famous. Its investment scope extends from the Far East to Southeast Asia and Australia.

When charter kings were rushing ashore and selling their ships at bargain prices, it expanded against the trend, then became heavily indebted, resulting in tight liquidity, extremely difficult operations, and shocking stock prices.

Wang Yuanchao no longer waited, because the charter king also intended to buy Wheelock. If he waited like that, a fight would break out, which would hurt the relationship.

He already held a large number of shares, so he took direct action and acquired 50% of the shares in one fell swoop, launching a forced acquisition without any suspense.

Even the charter king had to hand over his shares with a smile. He had just started and had not yet joined the game.

These industries need to be reintegrated, with the weak ones eliminated and the strong ones retained, and similar industries merged.

Not only that, the land that was previously hoarded has now come to the point of being developed on a large scale.

At this time, all labor costs are the lowest. When the houses are built, the cycle has just passed the bottom and the next prosperity cycle has begun.

Moreover, this action shows that we are more "optimistic" about the British authorities, isn't it?

The economy was already in such a difficult situation that the new Governor, Edward Youde, was powerless to turn the situation around, but he also needed to achieve some results, so he prepared to focus on education.

Wang Yuanchao also had an idea about this. He was trying to recruit people for Borneo University, but Borneo University had not yet been established, so he first set up a school in Hong Kong as a transitional place to store the recruited teachers.

So they hit it off with Governor Youde and established it one year earlier than in history.

First, a polytechnic was established to recruit global scientific and technological talents as a springboard for talent reserves for the University of Borneo.

Then an art college was established, which not only took over the artist training business of several TV stations, but also set up majors such as opera, drama, music, and dance to create all-round talents for the arts.

The key is that we can also recruit students from the mainland.

There are so many complicated things to do, and although there are many teams to help Wang Yuanchao coordinate and implement them, Wang Yuanchao also feels that the workload is getting bigger and bigger and he has no energy to take care of it all.

He can't possibly ignore his family and his personal life, right?

On this side, classmate Xiao Guan was courting people again and again, and on the other side, TVB General Manager Yu Jingwei introduced him to someone and invited him for tea.

They just have a new host who graduated from a training class, and she is said to be the most beautiful in Mount Wutai.

As soon as these words came out, Wang Yuanchao thought of the tragic little girl.

With such a tragic fate, should he save it?
