As night falls and the neon lights flash, Yanjing in 1993 already has a shadow of the prosperity of later generations. The roads are busy with traffic. Although there are still many bicycles, the number of cars has begun to double year by year.
"Are you still used to living in Yanjing?" Yang Dongxu rubbed his temples and asked as the Maserati drove smoothly.
Although the drink just now was just a small drink, it was rice wine, and it was very nourishing in the winter when paired with mutton hot pot. Yang Dongxu drank two more glasses and was now a little drunk.
"I'm quite used to it. I lived in Yanjing for a few years before, and I've only spent a lot of time in the south in the past two years." Chen Hong sat next to Yang Dongxu, a little afraid to look at her and said with her head lowered.
"Oh?" Yang Dongxu was stunned for a moment and turned to look at Chen Hong.
"My first job after graduating from Shanghai Theater Academy was to the Yanjing Youth Art Theater."
"Oh." Yang Dongxu nodded. He really didn't know this. He touched his nose in embarrassment and changed the subject: "How is filming? Are you still getting used to it?"
"It's okay. It's a bit tiring because it's three dramas shot in a row, but it's quite fulfilling."
"You didn't have any trouble?"
"No, the director and crew were very nice to me and took good care of me during filming." Chen Hong said.
"That's good. If you encounter any problems, just tell the company not to shoulder it alone. Just do your job well. If you don't want to do other things, you don't have to do them." Yang Dongxu said.
"I know." Chen Hong nodded lightly.
She naturally understood the meaning of Yang Dongxu's words. Human relationships in the entertainment industry were unavoidable. However, as a contracted artist of Haina, I dare not say that I can just pick and shoot movies casually. But compared to the sleaze of other companies, Haina is definitely a breath of fresh air.
At least there has never been a scandal involving a director blackmailing an actress for a certain role, or a company executive having an affair with a star, or a contracted artist being roped in as an escort.
Of course, this kind of thing can definitely not be prevented. After all, it is impossible to stop the love between men and women. It is simply impossible to completely eliminate it in this big dye vat. No matter how clean the company's executives and directors are, they can't stop those who want to get on top. Companies generally turn a blind eye to such things unless they go too far.
"The young master is here." Yang Dongxu heard Jie Chengwu's voice in a daze. When he opened his eyes, he realized that he was lying there and sat up quickly.
It turned out that my head was a little dizzy just now due to the alcohol, and I was leaning on Chen Hong in a daze.
"I'm sorry that I'm a little drunk, please go up first." Yang Dongxu glanced outside at the pitch black sky and didn't know where it was.
"Well," Chen Hong nodded slightly, then hesitated and said, "Would you like to go up and have a sip of tea?"
After saying that, she lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Yang Dongxu's cheeks, which were as red as apples.
"No, let's do it next time." Yang Dongxu waved his hand.
"Oh." Chen Hong was shy and a little disappointed.
"Wait a minute." Yang Dongxu thought of something and called Chen Hong.
Chen Hong looked up at Yang Dongxu.
"There will be an advertisement for you to shoot in the next two days. The company should notify you soon."
"Advertisement?" Chen Hong looked at Yang Dongxu in confusion. In this era, there are many stars who are in the spotlight. There are many Hong Kong and Taiwan stars filming commercials, but the mainland market has not yet emerged.
"For a product endorsement, someone will tell you the details when the time comes."
"Yeah, okay." Chen Hong agreed. Seeing that Yang Dongxu had nothing else to say, Chen Hong opened the door and got out of the car with a little disappointment in his eyes.
Seeing Chen Hong walking into the corridor, Yang Dongxu patted the chair in the front row: "Go back."
...
In the study, Yang Dongxu looked at the document in front of him in a daze, feeling as if he had seen a ghost.
After a while, he pinched himself and it hurt! Obviously not a dream.
"This is really..." Yang Dongxu rubbed his forehead and didn't know how to evaluate it for a while.
At this time, he was holding a document in his hand, which also contained two photos. The information was none other than information about a man who was suspected of being in a relationship with his elder sister Hongying. The photos were naturally taken secretly during the investigation.
When Yang Dongxu suddenly saw this information and photos just now, he was almost too scared to jump. Because he is so familiar with the information and photos. The person in the photo is none other than his brother-in-law Liu Leehom in his previous life. Yes, he is the brother-in-law who has the same last name as the famous singer Wang Leehom in later generations.
But shouldn’t my brother-in-law be working in the south now? Why did you come to Yanjing? In this era, commerce was not as developed as in the South. So now, whether they are those who quit their jobs and go to work in the sea, or those who are farming in the countryside to earn enough food and clothing to work hard, they are all going south and very few people are going north, even if Yanjing is the capital.
After taking another look at the information in his hand, Yang Dongxu threw it on the table. If the investigation revealed that it was someone else, he must pay special attention to it. The other person turned out to be his future brother-in-law. He didn't know what to do for a while.
In the end, he scratched his head and put the information and photos in the drawer: "Forget it, let it go."
Yang Dongxu decided to pretend not to know about the matter and let the two of them develop freely. With Zhuo Qing'er and her aunt watching over her, I would definitely not be able to make a decision similar to elopement like in her previous life.
Waiting until they got married and had children to ease the relationship with their parents made Yang's father and Yang's mother almost sick. He planned to wait for a while for the two of them to stabilize their relationship, then take them home directly and persuade them from the side. The matter would probably not cause the family to remain in a cold war for more than a year like in his previous life.
With the elder sister relieved about the matter, Yang Dongxu began to focus on the company again. Especially for Dongxu Technology, after more than two months of tug-of-war, Dongxu Technology defeated them with a combination of punches.
Tianwang Technology suffered heavy losses, and those who saw an opportunity and wanted to get involved stopped in their tracks and watched from the sidelines without daring to get into the water.
According to Yang Dongxu's intention, he would delay the other party for a while. Anyway, he would make money no matter how he sold it. The longer the delay is, the greater the opponent's loss will be, and the better the effect of this chicken will be.
But according to the information gathered privately, procrastination can certainly achieve the goal, but the effect may not be as good as expected.
And the local government's protection efforts are getting stronger and stronger, but it's not enough. The originally tens of millions of investment projects were real achievements.
What's more, in less than half a year of investment expansion, Tianwang Technology's assets have not only exceeded 60 million, but there are now more than a thousand workers in the factory.
If such a local 'leading industry' suddenly collapses, many people will not be able to reap the benefits. And what will these workers do if the factory goes bankrupt? This is a serious social problem.
Therefore, if this matter continues, Yang Dongxu will certainly put Tianwang Technology in a dilemma of life and death. But there is another situation that occurs, that is, the local government carries out regional protection in order to keep this fig leaf.
This protection will not only continue to protect Tianwang Technology, but may also prohibit Dongxu Technology's VCD from entering the local market. By using administrative means to retain the share of Tianwang Technology, Yang Dongxu can certainly compress Tianwang Technology into a small place so that he will have little impact on the domestic market.
But it is impossible to completely capture him, and at the same time, it also gives some people who are ready to do something an example before their eyes - kidnapping the government.
Therefore, after some consideration, Yang Dongxu decided to completely defeat Tianwang Technology before the year, without giving the local government time to consider. While defeating them, they also prepared a back-up plan to prevent those who refused to put down the fig leaf in their hands from jumping over the wall.
The advertising endorsement Yang Dongxu and Chen Hong mentioned was Dongxu Technology VCD. This is the first step of attack, so the celebrity spokesperson is not just Chen Hong.
Although due to the release of Auntie Qiong Yao's trilogy, Chen Hong's presence has been greatly improved and she has become a popular first-line female star in the mainland. She is also very popular in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan.
But she seemed a little weak by herself, so Yang Dongxu roped in his brother Leslie Cheung, Andy Lau, and Brigitte Lin to shoot this commercial together.
Four first-line stars, especially Leslie Cheung and Andy Lau, who are absolutely the best in mainland China, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, have become the top celebrity endorsers in less than three days. As long as there is a TV at home, everyone knows about Dong Asahi Technology VCD.
Coupled with the fact that it is now the time to buy and sell at the end of the year, Dongxu Technology's daily sales have directly exceeded 10,000 units, and monthly sales are heading towards 400,000 units.
This is only sales in the mainland, due to foreign production costs and technology patent issues. There is also a lot of demand for CVD in countries without agents.
As of the end of January 1994, Dongxu Technology's annual export volume reached an astonishing 600,000 units, with a total export volume of nearly 1.1 billion. Such amazing sales and output have set a satellite not only in the mainland, but also internationally.
Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, no new product in mainland China has been so popular overseas. Dongxu Technology, which was already popular, was named and praised by official mouthpieces such as the People's Daily, and even senior leaders from the central government visited the factory in person.
Under such a general trend, Yang Dongxu used his strength to make his second move.
...
"How can this be done? How can this be done?" Wang Laixi roared angrily in the office of Tianwang Technology. The office was in a mess. Everything that could be smashed was smashed to pieces. Even the desk seemed to have been torn into pieces. .
The secretary at the door looked carefully at the door of the office. There was a sound of something breaking inside, which made her body tremble.
"Excuse me, are you, Manager Wang, here?" A voice came from behind the secretary who just turned his head to look at the company.
"Yes, but you guys can go in later. Now Manager Wang..." The secretary's eyes suddenly widened before she could finish her words.
The people standing in front of him were not the usual visiting customers, but two policemen wearing large caps.
She opened her mouth to say something, but was too frightened to make a sound. The leading policeman smiled at her and waved four or five policemen directly to the door of the office.
Then panicked sounds came from inside.
"What are you doing? Why are you arresting me? I know you, Director Liu. Do you believe it if I take off your skin?"
