Fang Yihua was thinking about the information about the company behind ATV, and she knew more or less about it.

In fact, since Lin Boxin sold all his shares in ATV, many people in Hong Kong began to pay attention to what organization or person finally bought ATV.

What most people know is that the wholly-owned acquisition of Asia Television is a newly established media group in China called "Polaris".

As the number one competitor of ATV, TVB will pay close attention to every time ATV changes hands, and this time is no exception.

Especially after the reorganization of ATV, which showed great strength, and beat TVB to a standstill at the beginning, Run Run Shaw and his wife paid more attention to the company called "North Star".

Although Run Run Shaw began to focus on opening up his contacts in China before the return of Hong Kong, it has not been until now.

He can only rely on the coverage of TVB in the Pearl River Delta region of China to establish a preliminary friendship with the people here. As for the places further north, he is temporarily powerless.

Through friends in China, Run Run Shaw knew that "North Star" was a large media group, involved in all aspects of entertainment media, including TV, movies, records, magazines, newspapers and even the newly emerging Internet.

In addition to owning ATV, it also has a large satellite TV - Xinghe Satellite TV, and a 40% stake in Hengdian Film and Television City. It is the second largest shareholder of Hengdian Film and Television City besides Hengdian Group.

At first, Run Run Shaw and Fang Yat-wah suspected that the sudden appearance of "Polaris" was a state-owned enterprise owned by the state. Because the central government strictly controlled the media, there was no room for private TV stations to survive.

However, a British friend whom Sir Run Run Shaw knew who held a high position in the Hong Kong government before the reunification told him that "Polaris" is a joint venture, and the shares are held by three companies respectively.

The first company is China Great Wall Industry Corporation, which accounts for 25 percent; the second company is the US-based Glexcos Trade and Investment Corporation, which accounts for 35 percent; and the third company is a company called "Xinghe". investment companies, accounting for forty percent.

The Briton is not very clear about the Grecos Trade and Investment Company and Galaxy Investment Company, but China Great Wall Industry Corporation is very familiar with it.

Because it is a very important aerospace and rocket military enterprise in China, and it also occupies a very important position in the international arms trading market.

In other words, although "Polaris" can be regarded as a private company, it also contains national components, and its official background is extremely deep.

"Then what about Zhou Hao? What role does he play in it? Is it someone from the central government, or from the two private companies?"

Looking at the tall and handsome Zhou Hao in front of him, Fang Yihua kept guessing,

And she thinks that the most likely thing is that Zhou Hao is the son of a certain important person in the central government, that is, the so-called "princeling".

Thinking of Zhou Hao's possible identity, Fang Yihua's face gradually darkened.

Heart said: "We have already gone to the central government to discuss with those leaders before the reunification. Our wireless can continue to develop according to our own wishes after the reunification, and the central government will not interfere too much. But now how can the central government control What about ATV suppressing us?

Do they really want to completely control speech in Hong Kong? "

Fang Yihua's jumping thinking made her think far and far away, but Zhou Hao and Su Lin naturally didn't know about this.

The stock composition of "North Star" is indeed divided into three parts, but the American Glecos Trading and Investment Company is actually a puppet company registered in the United States by Zhou Hao using "Galaxy", so Zhou Hao holds "North Star" in his hand Seventy percent of the shares.

As for the 25% held by the Great Wall Industrial Company, Zhou Hao took the initiative to give it up, because according to domestic policies, it is difficult for private TV stations to develop.

That's why Zhou Haocai, under Zhao Yuqin's suggestion, deliberately divided the shares into three components: the state (Great Wall Industry), local private enterprises (Galaxy Investment) and foreign capital (Grecos) in order to obtain relatively preferential policies. right of landing.

Moreover, the Great Wall Industrial Corporation, like the Poly Group, is a military enterprise, and the Great Wall Industrial Corporation is different from the Poly Group. The military controls it much more strictly. After all, what she produces is sensitive aerospace technology.

In the Great Wall Industrial Corporation, the Zhao family faction is the biggest dominant force, so the 25% stake in "Polaris" is no different from giving it to the Zhao family.

Ignoring Fang Yihua's wild thoughts, Zhou Hao said sorry and walked away. Maybe he had some drinks just now, and he was a little anxious now.

Naturally, Su Lin and Liang Xiaobing would not follow him to the men's restroom, so they stayed here to socialize with celebrities from all walks of life.

It may be that this kind of high society party is often held. The toilets of Wireless Studio No. 1 are very luxuriously decorated, comparable to those in five-star hotels.

Zhou Hao walked into one of the grids to solve the problem, and when he was halfway there, he heard someone coming in from outside. Hearing the footsteps, it should be two people.

"These Chinese are fucking troublesome. We've always been impromptu singing, and now they want us to come to the show in the order of their list. It's fucking boring."

One of them yelled cursing in English with the sound of running water. He was obviously peeing.

Zhou Hao, who was in the toilet, felt that the voice was very familiar, and he remembered it after a while.

This is the voice of Jonathan, the lead singer of the Philharmonic Orchestra I met on the plane.

But he

At that time, he used poor Chinese to talk to himself, so Zhou Hao was not used to hearing him speak English now.

"Stop complaining, just be patient. This TV station paid a lot of money to invite us to perform. If we offend them, the company will not let us go."

The other person also spoke English, but his voice was calmer than Jonathan's, and it could be heard that he was a person who was good at controlling his emotions.

I only heard Jonathan say: "William, you are the drummer of our band, you should be the most passionate, why don't you, a bookworm, have no anger at all, this is not in line with our rock style.

I just dated a female star, it seems to be called Flora, she is an actress from the TV station that invited us to perform, although she is not very beautiful, she is more than coquettish.

How about I let her give you Lele? Guaranteed to set you on fire. "After that, Jonathan laughed lewdly to himself.

The one named William said: "You've only been in Hong Kong for a day and you've already met someone, you're worthy of being our band's 'star hunter'.

But I appreciate your kindness, I still like to do it myself. By the way, didn't you tell us before that you liked that female singer named Vivian, why are you dating someone else now? "

"I just use that flora to quench my thirst. It's a disposable item." Jonathan said indifferently, "Vivian is my ultimate goal. You saw her just now, right?" ?

Tsk tsk, as expected of vivian, the real person is much more beautiful than the photo, especially the amorous style, I can't stand it when I see it from a distance. "

"There seems to be a man beside her. Could it be her boyfriend?"

Jonathan said disdainfully: "I think it's just an old man covered in money. Even if he is really Vivian's boyfriend, I don't believe that I, Jonathan, can't snatch Vivian over with my charm."

After washing their hands, Jonathan and that William went out. Zhou Hao just came out of the toilet at this time, with a wry smile on his face, thinking that this Jonathan really didn't know how to advance or retreat.

Back at the venue, the party hadn't officially started yet, and those celebrities and wealthy businessmen were still chatting in groups.

Although many famous ladies and actresses came to this party, and they all dressed up to show off, but in terms of appearance and temperament, they were not as good as Su Lin and Liang Xiaobing.

The evening gowns worn by Su Lin and Liang Xiaobing are simple and elegant, and may not be as luxurious as others, but they can show the most beautiful side when worn on them, making them the most eye-catching beauties in the audience. I went to talk to them before, but I also peeked frequently.

When Zhou Hao came out, he happened to see two foreign men in front of Su Lin and Liang Xiaobing.

Nathan, the other person should be William who was in the toilet before, and there is a tall Chinese woman standing beside Jonathan.

"I really found Xiao Bing." Zhou Hao shook his head and smiled, and walked straight over.

Both Su Lin and Liang Xiaobing's English skills are very high. Even if Jonathan doesn't know how to speak Chinese, there is no problem in communicating.

When Zhou Hao walked over, Jonathan was praising Liang Xiaobing for his beauty. This guy has been in the flowers for a long time, and his mouth is very good. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is slick.

Those rhetoric came as soon as he opened his mouth, but Liang Xiaobing always kept a reserved and polite smile on his face, completely immune to Jonathan's tricks of tricking girls.

That William looked to be about thirty years old, taller than Jonathan, his facial features were not so delicate, a little rough, and his blue pupils were somewhat deep. He should be the kind of person who had experienced a lot.

He didn't talk like Jonathan, but talked with Su Lin very elegantly, like a gentleman.

"What are you talking about so happily?"

"Ah Hao, are you back?" Seeing Zhou Hao, the smile on Liang Xiaobing's face immediately became brighter, completely different from the coping smile she had just faced with Jonathan.
