Chapter 217 Boss Li decides on successor
After the matter was settled, Chen Yi didn't stay in TVB for long.
Although Boss Li was willing to help, he was still a bit disliked by the left and right. Chen Yi was also sensible, so he found an excuse and left Boss Li's office without waiting for Boss Li to chase him away.
Out of the office, Chen Yi originally wanted to go shopping in TVB, but thought that those familiar stars from his previous life hadn't appeared yet, so he stopped thinking about it.
As for the people he met on TVB before, Chen Yi didn't even think about going over to say hello. Now his status is too different from those people. He is no longer the little boss who just took over the Dafeng Toy Factory a year ago. Now he He is worth billions, even if he doesn't care, when those people see him again, they probably won't dare to talk and laugh casually.
Rather than meeting too awkwardly, it is better not to see each other. Anyway, the friendship has already been formed before, and if he can take over the boss's class in the future, those people can still be used by him alone.
After solving the problem, Chen Yi patted his **** and left. When he left, he was very relaxed and happy, feeling quite light-hearted.
Boss Li, who just took over the trouble, is feeling a little stressed at the moment. Although he agreed easily in front of Chen Yi, the main thing is to save face, so he won't lose his identity in front of Chen Yi.
Of course, Boss Li is also really interested in building a film and television city. It has been several years since TVB was founded, and it has gradually matured in terms of TV series and program production.
However, in the process, many problems were indeed exposed.
TVB was established for a short period of time, so it is naturally not as good as Li TV in terms of background. In order to solve the problem of shooting venues, Boss Li chose to cooperate with Shaw Brothers Films and borrowed Shaw Brothers' film and television studio to shoot, so that Run Run Shaw had the opportunity to join TVB.
Before, Boss Li didn't pay much attention to Run Run Shaw's involvement in TVB affairs, because he knew that he had a physical problem. Heart disease, a disease that could kill someone at any time, had already experienced the experience of being in and out of hell.
So, Boss Li has been looking for a suitable successor before, but unfortunately, none of his children can succeed him.
As for choosing from the children of the Li family, although Boss Li had such an idea, he finally gave up.
It is difficult for outsiders to understand the intricate relationships within the big family. The stronger the ability of the selected person, the more dangerous it is sometimes, because in the same family, once the other party becomes greedy, will the inheritance left by him fall to his wife and children? It's hard to say in your hands.
This kind of thing is not uncommon in big families.
In the face of interests, any family affection is false.
Neither his children nor his wife are capable enough to take over from him, so Boss Li can only look for someone else.
Before, he originally planned to give up TVB to Run Run Shaw. In case his illness relapsed accidentally that day, Run Run Shaw could also take care of his family for his own sake.
However, since Chen Yi appeared.
Boss Li's mind began to change slowly. Whether it was TVB or other industries, he wanted Chen Yi to take over.
Different from the Li family's children, no matter how powerful Chen Yi is, the other party will not dare to swallow his inheritance. Once Chen Yi dares to do that, not to mention the entire Li family's disapproval, it is Xiangjiang's other friends who are friendly with the Li family. The big family will not just watch.
Moreover, with Chen Yi's current wealth, Boss Li believes that it is impossible for the other party to bear the reputation of being ungrateful just for this little thing of him. You must know that ordinary people will have concerns about such things as reputation, let alone Chen Yi. A young man with a bright future.
Vulgar and vulgar, Boss Li believes that Chen Yifen is clear about the pros and cons.
The more he helps Chen Yi today, the more this love will fall on his wife and children in the future.
For a while, Boss Li made a decision in his heart.
"Yan Qun, what do you think of Xiao Yi?"
"Have you decided?" Li Xiao and his wife were taken aback when they heard the words, and when they saw their husband's expression, they instantly understood what the other party meant.
Boss Li nodded and said: "Xiao Yi, although I don't like him a bit, after observing these days, I have to say that this kid's potential far exceeds my expectations."
"The most important thing is that he sees things more clearly than an old guy like me, and sees in the long term."
"Now his foundation has been established, and with the support of our Lee family and HSBC, in a few years, I believe he will be able to rely on his own strength to gain a firm foothold in Xiangjiang."
"I think there is no more suitable candidate than him."
When Li Xiao and his wife heard this, they couldn't help but nodded, approving what their husband said. Chen Yi's development was too fast, so fast that it exceeded everyone's expectations.
Even, in her opinion, if it wasn't because of his young age, if Chen Yi was a few years older, with the wealth and power the other party now possesses, he could completely stop relying on the slightest power of the Li family.
In the final analysis, it is still the traditional Chinese thinking that is at work.
You have no hair on your mouth, you can't do things well, and you are too young, and everyone will subconsciously doubt your ability. Even if you show that you are not inferior to others, everyone will still look down on you.
However, it doesn't matter. Now the Li family and HSBC are supporting Chen Yi behind the scenes. As long as there are no accidents in the future, it is absolutely safe for Chen Yi to enter the top circle of Xiangjiang.
Although it is said that the tree is beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy it, but if the tree is protected by two mountains, no matter how strong the wind is, it will not be able to destroy the tree.
As for her husband's decision, Li Xiao and his wife will not interfere. They just looked at their husband and asked curiously: "What about TVB? You know that you plan to hand it over to him?"
Boss Li didn't hesitate, and said seriously: "If he didn't show interest in the film and television industry before, I might hesitate, but now, I think he is the most suitable candidate."
"But, what about Shao Laoliu? He seems to be very interested in TVB. I heard people say that he has the idea of giving up movies and switching to TV dramas. If you let him know that you have to make a decision, will it be okay?"
Before his wife could finish speaking, Boss Li raised his hand and interrupted: "It is precisely because he intends to give up the film career that he has dedicated most of his life that I cannot hand over TVB to him."
"Looking at the current development of Xiangjiang movies, the box office is getting higher year by year. It was already very rare for Xiangjiang movies to reach a million box office a few years ago. Now the highest box office of Xiangjiang movies has exceeded five million."
"Look at Golden Harvest Film and Television. They even dare to go to Hollywood, but Shaw Brothers has been sticking to their own one-acre three-point land. They only know how to reduce the cost of film production. The Shaw Brothers movies produced are not as good as each year."
"I know the thoughts of Shao Lao Liu better than anyone else, but he is already old. In Xiao Yi's words, he can no longer keep up with the trend of the times, and the movies he makes can no longer attract young people to watch."
"He wants TVB, but he wants to use it for retirement. He can't compete with Golden Harvest in movies, and now he wants to get involved in the TV industry. If TVB is really given to him, it might be the second Shaw Brothers movie."
