Chapter 116 Huang Xizhao, General Manager of Rediffusion Television!
Hong Kong.
Kowloon Tong.
81 Broadcast Drive.
Rediffusion Television Building.
General Manager's Office.
Huang Xizhao is the first Chinese general manager of Rediffusion Television. Before that, the general manager and most of the senior executives of Rediffusion Television were monopolized by white elites.
Later, Rediffusion Television's major shareholder Rediffusion found that the white management could not compete with the Chinese management of Hong Kong TVB, and began to gradually appoint and reuse the Chinese management.
Huang Xizhao left TVB and joined Rediffusion Television with a high salary as the general manager of Rediffusion Television.
His situation is similar to Liang Shuyi.
However, Liang Shuyi is now with the weaker ATV.
Huang Xizhao, who is over 40, has just arrived in the office not long ago. When he sat down to drink tea, his mind was full of how to defeat TVB.
ATV has also put a lot of pressure on Huang Xizhao in the past two years. However, considering the situation of ATV itself, Huang Xizhao and the senior executives of Rediffusion Television are not too worried.
"General Manager, your phone."
The landline phone in the general manager's office suddenly rang.
After the female assistant answered the phone, it turned out to be a call from the Rediffusion headquarters in London.
Huang Xizhao was stunned and surprised when he picked up the phone. When he wanted to ask a few more questions, the other end of the phone had hung up.
Rediffusion TV was actually sold by the major shareholder Rediffusion!
It was sold by that side, and finally called to inform him.
"General Manager, what's wrong?" The female assistant asked in disbelief.
"Rediffusion TV has changed its major shareholder. The new major shareholder will come to inspect in a while. Notify other executives to the meeting room immediately."
Huang Xizhao hurried out of the office.
He never thought that although Rediffusion TV is still in a loss-making state, the major shareholder Rediffusion was sold quietly.
What Huang Xizhao didn't expect was that the new major shareholder was not someone else.
It was Mr. Yang, the boss of Empire Group, who had just acquired Wharf and Hutchison Whampoa some time ago.
Compared with the original Rediffusion.
Empire Group is probably a hundred times stronger.
For Huang Xizhao, is this a blessing or a curse?
Huang Xizhao went to the conference room.
The management of various departments of Rediffusion Television, including several production directors he promoted, such as Mai Dangxiong, Xiao Ruoyuan, Li Zhaoxiong, Tu Yongxiong, etc., all appeared in the conference room soon.
Huang Xizhao sat in the chief position with a serious face.
"Just five minutes ago, I suddenly received a call from the headquarters of Rediffusion Television, the major shareholder. Rediffusion Television's parent company has sold all shares of Rediffusion Television to Mr. Yang of Empire Group."
Rediffusion Television sold all its shares to Empire Group?
When the executives of Rediffusion Television who were sitting there heard it, they were silent at first, and then surprised.
Finally, when they reacted, they didn't know whether they were surprised or frightened.
It was not easy for them to adapt to those TV stations controlled by white people. Now, with a sudden change of major shareholders, it seems that they have to adapt from scratch.
"General Manager, what is the attitude of Empire Group?" Mai Dangxiong asked.
Huang Xizhao shook his head.
"I don't know either. I just saw a report about Mr. Yang in the newspaper a few days ago."
Thinking that Mr. Yang was able to swallow up Wharf Holdings and Hutchison Whampoa at such a young age and also invested in Huifeng Bank, he thought that this Chinese tycoon would be more difficult to deal with than the original white major shareholder.
It was already difficult for them to deal with TVB. If the new major shareholder interfered again, it would be difficult for them, the executives.
"Also, the new major shareholder Mr. Yang will come to inspect our Rediffusion Television in half an hour. You should be prepared and don't embarrass yourself in front of Mr. Yang."
Huang Xizhao didn't say anything more.
Huang Xizhao returned to the general manager's office and asked the female assistant to bring all the news reports about Mr. Yang a few days ago.
Huang Xizhao began to study Mr. Yang there.
. . .
Yang Ming, Mai Lisi, Lin Xiuzhi, Tang Shilian and others took cars to leave the Empire Group and come to Kowloon Tong.
I have to say.
This place is really remote now.
Especially after getting away from Kowloon, Yang Ming sat in the Rolls-Royce and looked out, and found that it was getting farther and farther away.
When the driver and bodyguard Chen Zhenhua drove up the mountain, Yang Ming knew that the five major TV stations and radio stations in Hong Kong were all located halfway up the mountain.
In addition to Rediffusion Television.
There are also TVB, Jiayi Television, Hong Kong Commercial Radio, and Hong Kong Radio, all of which are located here.
When they arrived outside the Rediffusion Television Building at 81 Broadcast Road.
The Rolls-Royce that Yang Ming was sitting in stopped.
Huang Xizhao brought a group of senior executives of Rediffusion Television, and even some young and beautiful female hosts all came out to greet them.
"General Manager, Mr. Yang's Rolls-Royce is here."
I don't know why.
Huang Xizhao was actually a little nervous.
Chen Zhenhua opened the car door, got out of the car himself, took down Yang Ming's folding wheelchair, and after Lin Xiuzhi helped Yang Ming sit on the wheelchair.
Mai Lisi, Tang Shilian and others also got out of the car.
"Hello, Mr. Yang. I am Huang Xizhao, the general manager of Rediffusion Television. Welcome to visit the television station." Huang Xizhao took the initiative to greet him.
"General Manager Huang, hello."
Yang Ming and Huang Xizhao shook hands and greeted each other.
Originally, Huang Xizhao was still a little worried about Mr. Yang's attitude. Seeing that Mr. Yang was not as he imagined, Huang Xizhao instantly recovered a lot.
Introducing other executives of Rediffusion Television to Yang Ming, Yang Ming found that the executives of Rediffusion Television are now half white and half Chinese.
After all, it was originally a British-owned shareholder, and Rediffusion Television is definitely different from TVB and even Jiayi Television.
"This is Mr. Mai Lisi, the general manager of Empire Group."
"Mr. Mai Lisi, nice to meet you."
Huang Xizhao also hurriedly greeted Mai Lisi.
In his opinion, Mai Lisi's identity is also not simple.
"This is Miss Tang Shilian, the financial director of Empire Group."
. . .
Yang Ming and Huang Xizhao introduced each other.
Surrounded by a group of people, Yang Ming officially entered the Rediffusion Television Building.
There are still many people in Rediffusion Television, nearly a thousand people. Except for the staff of major TV stations who are still working, the rest basically come to see Yang Ming, the new major shareholder.
Came to the meeting room.
Yang Ming looked at Huang Xizhao and said, "General Manager Huang, I am going to have a meeting with other shareholders of Rediffusion Television first. I will talk to you after the meeting."
"Yes, Mr. Yang."
In addition to Rediffusion Television's original major shareholder Rediffusion Television, there are also Jardine Matheson, the Kadoorie family, the Wing On Guo family, the Jardine Matheson Bank, the Xu Shixun family, etc.
Among them, Yang Ming is an old acquaintance of Jardine Matheson.
The Kadoorie family, Yang Ming, met Mr. Kadoorie some time ago when the Murray House land was auctioned.
The Wing On Guo family is an old comprador family in Hong Kong in the early days, and its strength is not as good as that of the emerging Chinese families.
The Jardine Matheson Bank is the second largest foreign bank in Hong Kong.
Xu Shixun, Yang Ming also met in the meeting room of Huifeng Bank.
Before Yang Ming came to Rediffusion Television, these small shareholders of Rediffusion Television suddenly received calls from the headquarters of the major shareholder Rediffusion Television.
The phone informed them that Rediffusion had sold all of Rediffusion Television's shares to Mr. Yang of Empire Group.
Before these small shareholders could react, they received another call from Mr. Yang's secretary, informing them to come to Rediffusion Television Building immediately for the shareholders' meeting.
