Chapter 293 Party (II)

After walking a few steps, Lin Yu saw Mr. Huo and several energetic old men gathered together, each with joy and joy. This party was more like a gathering for them, such as their old friends. I recalled the past and the years. Perhaps a long time ago, no ribbon could string them into a line like today, looking back on the past, and talking about the country.

Although the party was held by Mr. Huo and Li Chaoren, the two of them have not yet spoken on stage, and they just sit here to accompany their old friends to drink tea and chat. They are not young people now, and they no longer have the feeling of drinking desperately for the struggle when they were young. There are no other younger generations here, and they may not dare or feel ashamed of themselves. However, many people will look at the situation here from time to time, their eyes are full of respect and admiration, and their ears are also high, hoping to hear any inside news and dynamics.

Although Mr. Huo is still very young, his eyes are still very good. He saw Leng Bianhan from a distance and waved to him. His eyes were undoubtedly kind, and he said to several others: "I will introduce you to an old friend right away. It is very amazing. He is much better than my incompetent children and grandchildren."

"Oh? Is it? On the phone">You and Lao Li praised someone so much, which really made us old guys want to see what kind of young people can afford to praise you two." After hearing what he said, several old men who were older couldn't help but become interested. They rarely heard Mr. Huo praise a junior like this.

"Come on, Xiaoyu, I'll introduce you to some old men. If you have anything in Hong Kong in the future, don't be polite to them. They will stomp each other in Hong Kong, but they will tremble all the time." After Mr. Huo's recommendation, Lin Yu knew who these people were.

These old people are all legendary figures of the older generation of Hong Kong, including Mr. Zeng from Jin Lilai, Mr. Cao from Yongxin, Mr. Shao from Shaw, Mr. Ye from Ye, Mr. Li from Hengji, and Mr. Bao from the ship king. Each old man is a big shot that the outside world has seen. They are gathered together, no wonder others dare not surround him.

If you want to talk about who is interested in Lin Yu? Lin Yu would definitely say no. He is very interested in these old men, but if you want to say that the ones who are most interested in him are undoubtedly Mr. Shao and the King of Shipbuilding.

Mr. Shao is a godfather-level figure in the Hong Kong entertainment industry. Lin Yu is planning to enter the entertainment industry now. However, Lin Yu is just playing around with the entertainment industry. He didn't think about how much money he could make in this industry. However, the film industry can indeed make some money, but that's what they all talk about. Lin Yu remembers that "Titanic" has a box office of hundreds of millions of dollars, and a movie can make hundreds of millions of dollars. To be honest, this money is no different from the wind blowing.

Lin Yu also respects this "Sixth Uncle" whom he admires, not only his outstanding contribution to Hong Kong films, but also a pioneering hero in the true name of Chinese film industry. Every step of the change in Chinese films has the hard work he and his family have devoted. Seeing the growth and rise and fall of Chinese films is a witness to the history of film. He also respects him for all his money to help all living beings for many years. As early as 1973, he established the Shaw Brothers Foundation, dedicated to various social welfare undertakings, regards money as an outsider, is kind and enthusiastic about public welfare, and is one of the few philanthropists in Hong Kong.

Speaking of "Six Uncle", we have to say that his family Run Run Shaw's father was Shao Xingyin, the boss of Shanghai Jintaichang Pigment Company. He ranked sixth among brothers and sisters, so he later became known as "Six Uncle".

In the 1950s, Hong Kong achieved historical opportunities and all industries flourished, and the film industry was no exception. In 1957, Run Run Shaw officially moved to Hong Kong and fought for his life at the age of 50 to open up a new world in his career. In 1958, Run Run Shaw established Shaw Brothers Hong Kong Co., Ltd. in Hong Kong.

Compared with the celebrity status that often appears on the entertainment page headlines, Uncle Six may prefer to be regarded as a successful businessman - he is suffering, diligent in doing things, proficient in business, has a strong market sensitivity, and is very concerned about costs. The older generation of Hong Kong businessmen's way of getting rich is fully demonstrated in him.

Run Run Shaw was not from a poor family. His father owned a large-scale pigment company in Shanghai, but no one of the Shaw brothers inherited their father's business and entered the entertainment industry. In 1926, he followed his brother to Singapore to explore the Nanyang film market, and started as the humblest film projectionist. Since Shaw Brothers had just started and did not have his own movie distribution network, he could only carry the burden of dressing videos and equipment to run around every corner of Singapore and Malaysia, and to show it to places where Chinese people gather.

As of the 1960s, Run Run Shaw's film and television kingdom was quite large, but his diligence was not reduced. It is said that he still worked 16 hours a day in his seventies. The famous director Zhang Che had worked under Uncle Shao Liu. In his book, he recalled: "The hard work of Run Run Shaw was rare in my life. The Rolls-Royce he was sitting in was a luxurious car with a bar in the car. He converted it into a small desk and did not waste even the time on the way."

As for businessmen, Uncle Six is ​​extremely courageous and has made decisive decisions. He has been working with his brother for more than 30 years in the 1920s and has accumulated considerable wealth in Nanyang, but he still chose to go to Hong Kong to "start a business" in the year of destiny. By the end of the 1970s, he faded out of the film industry, which had been struggling for nearly 50 years and turned to the emerging television industry, and was over 70 years old. Even if he ignored the achievements he had created, Uncle Six's perseverance is worthy of the admiration of the young Hong Kong who was trapped in the transformation today.

Most people who make movies and sell movies like to regard themselves as "cultural people", while Uncle Six is ​​willing to honestly admit that he is a businessman. Film critics often accuse Shaw of film and television works produced by Shaw Brothers of "kiss" and lack artistic value, with large output and few passing on the world. But in terms of commercial value alone, "Shaw Brothers" that specializes in the line of petty citizens dominates the Hong Kong film market for nearly 20 years; TVB, which is often denounced as a rich soap opera, can also be the first among Hong Kong ratings and advertising revenue for many years. In terms of business, Uncle Six is ​​no different from all Hong Kong bosses who are very concerned about costs, and he even made a joke about it.

Uncle Six is ​​not the richest person in Hong Kong, but he is one of the few big philanthropists among Hong Kong's richest people. It can be said that his influence in Hong Kong originated from his film and television kingdom, and his reputation in the mainland is mainly due to his charitable donations.

As early as 1973, Uncle Liu established the Shaw Brothers Foundation. This year, in 1985, I heard that Uncle Liu planned to donate 100 million yuan to the mainland to support various domestic social welfare undertakings.

Lin Yu still admires his sixth uncle's behavior. It is his actions that make the people in the country so familiar with his name. However, there is no way to test whether the money is used for charity.

Lin Yu looked at the old men who could only see on TV in his previous life, but now he was facing them directly. He could hardly suppress the excitement in his heart. Facing the calm and calm majesty of the old men, Lin Yu still suppressed the turbulent emotions in his heart and politely greeted the old men one by one.

His attitude surprised the old men here. Who are they? The old foxes who have worked hard in the mall for decades, all of them are cunning. They have long seen that this young man is not old and seems to have never experienced such occasions. However, his calmness, indifference, and neither humble nor arrogant demeanor, and his temperament of superiors are faintly revealed, which makes them very surprised. Who can cultivate such an outstanding young man? Anyway, they have never seen it before. No wonder Mr. Huo and Li Chaoren would admire this young man so much. It is indeed extraordinary.

These old men are all wealthy and have never lacked beauties around them. But as beautiful women see too many times and get older, their thoughts in this regard will naturally fade. However, this little guy made several old men interested. When they looked at each other, they all saw the same thoughts from each other's eyes.

Mr. Zeng looked at Lin Yu, then laughed and said, "It seems that it was not in vain today. Lao Huo, you are very good junior."

Mr. Cao also smiled and said, "After living for so many years, I can be regarded as a person who knows countless people, but I am still rare to see such a temperament and demeanor. At least there is no one in the young master's door that can match. I am very curious, Lao Huo, who was you, a junior? It's really extraordinary, extraordinary."

Several other old people also nodded and agreed. Indeed, Lin Yu's age and his demeanor were in sharp contrast. To put it, it was actually very inconsistent, and even some contradictions. But in this contradiction, it showed extraordinary charm, which made them appreciate it very much.

It is something that no one else dares to think about when he gets the praise of these old men. Even if Lin Yu has good psychological quality and thick skin, he can't help but blush with a shy face. Although he has his current wealth, perhaps all these old men can't catch up, but they are all cheated by themselves, and it's easy to get it. No matter how old people gather wealth, most of them have experienced thrills, like taking the chestnuts from fire, relying on their advancing and retreating, their vicious vision is in the long run, and they are extremely courageous and courageous. The value of the content is incomparable.

Just when Lin Yu was praised and was a little shy, Mr. Bao, who was sitting beside him, smiled and said, "Old Huo, you junior should be from the mainland."
