Chapter 261: The God of Management on Treasure Island
"Do me a favor. As long as Ms. Deng is willing to visit, I am willing to donate 1 million Taiwan dollars to the scholarship program you are preparing." Tang Huan cooperated and continued to lobby.
"If that's the case, I can try to adjust the itinerary." Deng Lijun finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"I don't have this kind of stuff, I have to be forced to spend extra money." Tang Huan coughed lightly, returned to his normal tone, and complained, "My money didn't come from a strong wind. It's very stressful to raise a TV station. The landlord’s house doesn’t have any food left.”
"You have such a big purse, what a waste of opportunity if you don't ask for alms." Deng Lijun's laughter showed a little complacency.
"Why don't you stay in Xiangjiang? Is Baodao really so busy?" Tang Huan greeted with some concern.
"Ever since I returned to Baodao to participate in the performance of the Golden Horse Awards, my itinerary has been fully booked, not counting the commercial activities that I declined. Moreover, most of them have some human feelings in them, so it's not easy to show big names You know, the team of assistants you arranged for me has become a wall, and people have already talked about it in private, saying that Deng Lijun is too arrogant." Deng Lijun, who heard Tang Huan's concern, explained carefully in a soft voice. Fan.
"Don't care about what other people say, your workload is too heavy, you need to pay attention to rest." Tang Huan emphasized the importance of his arrangement, "By the way, congratulations on the good response of your first Cantonese album "Incompatibility" , Proper white ♂↑, ww♂w. Jin, can’t run away. That, Miss Deng, give me a chance to support me.”
"You, you are not suitable for developing in the music world. You should honestly be a businessman, a promising career." Deng Lijun hit Tang Huan happily.
"Okay. Listen to people's persuasion. Eat enough. Thank you, Ms. Deng, for your guidance. I decided to do my job well first." After some flirting in private, the phone call ended unsatisfactorily.
...
After nearly two years of construction, the Hsinchu Science and Technology Industrial Park was finally completely completed on December 15, 1980. It took a lot of hard work on the island. Compared with this, the mainland has a long way to go.
As the first batch of high-tech enterprises to settle in, it is the factory of Zheru and Fangyuan Computer. It can be said that the core position has been established, and the associated upstream and downstream enterprises are supported by all the stars.
In particular, Acer was authorized and technically supported to start producing 8-bit microcomputers compatible with the first-generation Fangyuan computer, and UMC became Intel's second supplier, and had the opportunity to develop intel8086, which fully demonstrated Tang Huan's tolerance and energy, making Baodao Industry insiders naturally see him as an industry leader.
Driven by Tang Huan,
Singapore has confirmed plans to establish fabs with Italy's sgs and France's Thomson; while Baodao is also actively promoting this.
After this batch of production capacity is released, it will more or less affect the speed of hardware price decline.
Tang Huan was most gratified. Formosa's production system has also passed the certification, and so on. The quality control of all products is guaranteed, and the next step is such requirements for partners.
The environment of Baodao is far more complicated than that of Singapore, so Tang Huan has extraordinarily many entertainments.
However, compared to the previous times, he has a bigger figure to meet the head of Formosa Plastics Group, Wang Yongqing, who is known as the "God of Management".
It has to be said that the role of the American billionaire's world passport has gradually emerged. Tang Huan, who bears this halo, has become a very close business partner with his next generation. If the Wang family continues to turn a blind eye, it will be I'm going to be laughed at.
A group can get rich suddenly, but soft resources such as social contacts, corporate culture, etc. need to be accumulated and precipitated over time, and the industry under the name of the Wang family has obviously reached the standard.
The first overseas investment started in February 1976, and the establishment of "Indonesia South Asia Company" in Indonesia, and the establishment of "Formosa Plastics America Company" in New Jersey, USA in October 1978, and even the registration and establishment of "Formosa Plastics Corporation" in Liberia in March 1980 Formosa Plastics Shipping Co., Ltd., the Formosa Plastics Group, as the leading private enterprise in Baodao, has already jumped out of the pattern of Baodao.
In the original time and space in 1983, the American subsidiary of Formosa Plastics Group began to cooperate with HP to enter the electronics industry.
It is not difficult to see from this that the Wang family is actively expanding their industries at this stage, and Tang Huan, a man with all-hands and eyes, naturally has too much need for further contact.
Accompanied by Wang Xueling and Jian Mingren, Tang Huan attended the year-end social dinner of Formosa Plastics Group and met brothers Wang Yongqing and Wang Yongzai.
In the original time and space, it was revealed that Wang Yongqing had a fourth wife and more than ten children, while Wang Xueling and Wang Xuehong were sisters from the second bedroom, and they did not inherit the family business, and opened up a new world.
With the help of Tang Huan, Dazhong Computer, established by Wang Xueling and Jian Mingren, quickly became the largest computer service company in Taiwan today.
Coupled with Tang Huan's mutual shareholding relationship with Wang Xueling and Jian Mingren, his relationship with the Wang family is really deep.
Naturally, even though Tang Huan met Wang Yongqing and Wang Yongzai for the first time, he didn't feel too much strangeness.
Formosa Plastics Group itself is a major customer of Fangyuan Computer, and the benefits brought by enterprise informatization have become more and more obvious. Wang Yongqing recognized this progress.
Tang Huan never underestimates others just because he has the advantage of information asymmetry. The information age in the original time and space only provides convenience for people, and does not mean improving people's wisdom.
And Wang Yongqing's views have always been praised by others. For example, he said, "A dollar you earn is not your dollar, but a dollar you save is your dollar."
Compared with the dazzling financial system invented by the West and expanded from it, it is really intriguing to think about it carefully.
In 2004, according to statistics from Forbes magazine, Wang Yongqing of Formosa Plastics and Terry Gou of Hon Hai were both worth US$2.8 billion. Tied for the richest man in Taiwan. Ranked 188 in the world.
And the truth. Wang Yongqing's property is not only in one basket of Baodao. The general view is that Wang Yongqing's personal wealth is seriously underestimated, and his global wealth ranking should be before the 95th.
The most obvious proof is that when the inheritance was declared, the treasure island was about 1.7 billion US dollars, Xiangjiang was more than 4 billion US dollars, and there was a larger part in the United States. Its total assets were estimated to be nearly 20 billion US dollars.
The actual richest man in Baodao. it goes without saying.
This phenomenon may not be a cleverness in dealing with people.
While interacting with the family members of the Wang family, Tang Huan kept an appropriate distance from other members. The relationship between each house is not that simple, and the prince who is also from the second house and is being regarded as the future successor Lord, the future is also different from the path chosen by Wang Xueling and Wang Xuehong.
As long as I get the help that can help the IT industry, there is no need to get involved.
...
At this banquet, Tang Huan drank a little too much, and when he woke up the next day, he felt hungover.
This reminded him suddenly of Gu Long who was addicted to alcohol. I don't know how the opponent recovered from his injuries after encountering the Yinsong Pavilion incident.
Xiangjiang's game development team is working on the "Peerless Twins" project. I'm so busy, and when it's time to release, maybe I still need this guy to shout and cheer.
As a result, when Tang Huan saw Gu Long, he was startled. Originally, the other party was quite a strong man, especially his chubby head, which was considered a sign, but now he was obviously thinner.
Looking at Gu Long who was drinking wine with Wo Longsheng, Tang Huan shook his head again and again, "Is the injury healed, I can't help my appetite."
"I have wine today and I'm drunk today, come, let's drink together." Gu Long, with a gloomy expression, repeatedly invited.
This literary hero has inherited the free and easy style in his works, and has not changed his initial attitude towards getting along with Tang Huan at all because of the improvement of Tang Huan's status.
Tang Huan's eyes fell on Wo Longsheng, and he asked lightly, "Why don't you persuade me?"
"How can he listen?" Wo Longsheng smiled wryly, "I just had a quarrel with his wife, Mei Baozhu, and I'm getting more and more depressed."
"It's normal for couples to quarrel. As for drinking, don't you take your own health seriously." Tang Huan couldn't understand Gu Long's actions, and there was a sentence he didn't say. If you keep your body, how can you be bound by a woman?
However, what Wo Longsheng said just now is also true. Talented scholars have their own world in their hearts, and it is difficult to listen to other people's persuasion.
Seeing Gu Long pouring himself a drink with drunken eyes, Wo Longsheng explained in a low voice, "Recently, besides his bad luck of being injured, the film company is also not going well, and he lost a lot of money in a daze. It is estimated that there is not much money left."
"No way." Hearing these words, Tang Huan couldn't help being a little dumbfounded.
"People like us have never been good at managing money." Wo Longsheng laughed at himself helplessly.
No matter how lonely a hero is, he still cannot escape the secular economic foundation.
Tang Huan pondered for a while. Gu Long's martial arts novels are his wealth, but in the 1970s they were adapted and filmed a large number of movies, and the craze has gradually passed. There are also several TV series of "Peerless Twins", but it is impossible to put them on the screen too intensively in the future, and even with this kind of product, it will not be so easy to realize.
However, after all, I own a TV station, so I might as well provide some support to relieve Gu Long's immediate needs.
You know, tvb is planning to shoot "Tian Long Ba Bu". According to the historical development trend, a large number of costume martial arts TV dramas will emerge in the next few years.
Jin Yong's works were basically booked early by TVB, and DreamWorks had to find a way from Gu Long, Liang Yusheng and others in order to cope with the martial arts craze throughout the 1980s.
"Have you heard that I bought Li's TV in Xiangjiang and renamed it Media Asia TV." Tang Huan knocked on the table and asked.
"Your business has grown so big?" Gu Long burped and muttered to himself.
Wo Longsheng scratched his head, and replied embarrassedly, "I didn't pay much attention to the news in this area."
"I guess you just remember to drink." Tang Huan patted the table dumbfounded, "Heroes, you don't even know when the business is here. If the TV station wants to shoot martial arts TV series, your works can be sold for money."
After hearing this. Gu Long was jolted up, as if he had woken up a little bit from the alcohol, and shook Tang Huan's arm with a smile on his face, "Boss Tang, you are really timely, how do you buy it, do you buy it in packages like video games? I sell them all Give you."
"I won't be robbed by people poking my spine." Tang Huan broke his hand and snapped his fingers. Slowly said: "I'll buy the exclusive right to adapt your martial arts novel to a TV series in Xiangjiang; it doesn't have to be filmed immediately, but the time limit is all in the 1980s; you can continue to sell the right to adapt TV series on Baodao, but you are obliged to notify me in advance."
"No problem, I'll listen to you." Gu Long nodded like a chicken pecking at broken rice, "You can buy them all."
"Do you think I'm being taken advantage of?" Tang Huan scolded with a smile, "First pick works such as "Peerless Twins" and "Little Li Feidao", and just use them. The money was exchanged for wine. Drank it into the stomach."
Although Tang Huan didn't mind pulling Gulong, he couldn't compromise his shrewd reputation.
""Peerless Twins" was filmed by Baodao TV in 1977. It was also filmed by TVB in Xiangjiang in 1979." Gu Long reminded.
"I know, it doesn't matter. Didn't I buy several works? "Peerless Twins" is scheduled to be filmed two or three years later, and the audience will feel fresh again." Tang Huan nodded.
He naturally knew that in 1979, in order to film "Peerless Two Pride", tvb went to great lengths to invite Mi Xue to play the role of Su Ying in the play. In 1988, they filmed Tony Leung's version of "Peerless Two Pride". Xie Ning, who was born as a young lady, starred as Su Ying.
In the original time and space, no less than 8 versions of "Peerless Twins" were filmed, which shows how long-lasting the attraction of this theme is.
"Boss Tang, take care of my business too." Wo Longsheng flattered Tang Huan with a glass of wine, and brought it up with both hands.
"Of course." Tang Huan took the wine and drank it all in one gulp, "Let's pick "Flying Swallows Startled the Dragon" and "Crimson Snow Profound Shuang" first, the rules are the same as Gu Long's."
The main feature of Wolongsheng's martial arts novels is that the male protagonist is pursued by many beauties, and the result is often that the female protagonists are described with distinctive personalities, vividly written on the page, while the male protagonists pale in comparison.
In the original time and space, the adaptation of "Flying Swallows Startled the Dragon" into "The Crane and the Magic Needle", and the adaptation of "Crimson Snow and Xuanshuang" into "Snowflake Excalibur" are quite well-known.
All in all, Tang Huan calculated the gains and losses under the appearance of being eager for justice, which is the so-called equalization of interests and a win-win situation.
At the end of the chat, Tang Huan knocked on the table again, "For more detailed matters, I will let my subordinates deal with them, and I will not ask them personally."
Speaking of this, Tang Huan took out an envelope and put it in front of Gu Long, "I didn't have time to express my condolences immediately when you encountered an accident this time, so I will make it up now."
"How embarrassing." Gu Long scratched his head shyly.
"Just take it." Tang Huan waved his hand indifferently, stood up and said goodbye, and kindly reminded, "Don't be so greedy, and if you don't pay attention to health care, you will feel powerless when you see beautiful women."
"Mr. Tang taught me a lesson." Gu Long and Wo Longsheng laughed and sent Tang Huan out the door.
Tang Huan waved his hand, got into the car, glanced at Gu Long and Wo Longsheng, and said to himself that you should restrain yourself in your living habits, otherwise it would be a pity to die young.
...
It can be said that Tang Huan was overwhelmed with the entertainment in Baodao, and he was delayed for a long time at Acer and Lianhua alone. As for Hon Hai, which is still unknown at this time, he can only be in the back row.
When Tang Huan arrived in Japan, it was January 1981, and people here had just celebrated the New Year.
Of course, the sales of game consoles and personal computers also took advantage of this opportunity to blow out.
The main purpose of Tang Huan's coming to Japan is to transfer part of the production capacity of Epson printers to the mainland. At present, there are frequent exchanges between China and Japan, so there shouldn't be any problems in operation.
After meeting Hideaki Yaskawa, the other party had no objection, and speculated that Reijiro Hattori would not only agree, but might also give up the control of Epson that Tang Huan had coveted for a long time.
It turned out that Hattori Reijiro became interested in the position of the head of the Hattori family.
The family's main business is Seiko watches, and luxury items like jewelry, and products like printers are just sidelines.
As Tang Huan's influence on the Epson printer grew, Reijiro Hattori, who was tired of coping, was already annoyed at letting wolves into the house at the beginning, and subtly changed to surrendering control in a flexible way.
Because he was deeply attracted by the batch of gems on the Lady Atoka, the few treasures brought back from San Francisco had just appeared in Japan and attracted the attention of dignitaries.
Located in the center of Ginza, Tokyo, the art gallery "Wako Hall" on the sixth floor has been overcrowded recently, and people just want to witness those perfect natural gemstones.
The status of the Hattori family in the Japanese fashion industry has also been raised to a new height. Reijiro Hattori has made great contributions to this.
Ever since, he felt that he could give up his sideline printer business, while Tang Huan, who was not very good at jewelry, continued to provide gemstone resources.
After seeing Hattori Reijiro, who was obviously much more enthusiastic than before, Tang Huan quickly understood the other party's wishful thinking. This guy is not young, but he is still so ambitious, which is really amazing.
Of course, there is room for flexibility here.
