Chapter 1420 Mr. Shao’s Considerations!

When Run Run Shaw and Fang Yihua saw Liang Shuyi coming, they were still very enthusiastic.

Especially when they learned that Liang Shuyi was here on behalf of Sir Yang.

"Ms. Liang, are you saying that Sir Yang recommended me to be the first president of the Hong Kong Artists Association?"

Now the news about the Hong Kong Artists Association has spread everywhere, and the position of president is also very popular, and many people are eyeing this position.

It's just that many members of the association have been arrested recently, which makes some people a little afraid.

"Indeed, Sir Yang said that no one else is more suitable for the position of president than you."

Since the 1950s, Run Run Shaw's position in the Hong Kong film and television industry has been unmatched. If he hadn't met Yang Ming, he would have had a greater influence with Run Run Shaw's TVB.

And in recent years, because of Yang Ming's relationship, TVB's ratings have fallen, and Run Run Shaw's influence has also been greatly affected.

However, Yang Ming knows that in terms of Hong Kong film and television, there is indeed no one else who can compare with Run Run Shaw.

"Ms. Liang, I'm too old to take on this position."

In total, Shaw Yifu is 87 years old, almost 88 years old, and he is indeed not young. However, he still has the final say in TVB and Shaw Brothers, and Shaw Yifu is still very energetic.

What Shaw Yifu is worried about is that even if he takes the position of chairman, he will be interfered with by Sir Yang.

For him, he actually doesn't like being interfered with by others.

"Mr. Shaw, this is Sir Yang's intention. As for whether you are willing to accept this position, you should think it over carefully."

This is indeed something that Shaw Yifu should think about clearly.

She just came to talk to him about this matter on behalf of the boss. Whether the other party agrees or not is the other party's own business.

Fong Yihua next to him winked at Shaw Yifu, and Shaw Yifu said, "Ms. Liang, I will think about it first and give you a reply in three days."

Son Leung Suk-yee did not stay any longer.

After Son Leung Suk-yee left, Shaw Yifu and Fang Yihua personally sent Son Leung Suk-yee to the door.

See Son Leung leave in a car.

Run Run Shaw and Fang Yihua also know that Liang Shuyi's status in the Hong Kong entertainment industry is also very high.

If nothing unexpected happens.

In the future, Liang Shuyi should also serve as the president of the Hong Kong Artists Association.

"Yihua, what do you mean, why don't you just refuse?"

"Sir, you are confused. Although the Hong Kong Artists Association was proposed by Sir Yang, it is also supported by the Hong Kong Governor's Office. It is a semi-official and semi-civilian organization. If you serve as the president, it will be of great help to TVB and Shaw Brothers. You help those artists and protect their interests. Maybe there will be a group of artists who will jump to TVB and Shaw Brothers."

At the beginning, after Yang Ming acquired Asia Television, Run Run Shaw over-exploited the actors, causing many actors to jump to Asia Television.

However, historically, although Run Run Shaw exploited those actors, he did play a very important role in the Hong Kong entertainment industry.

Many ordinary people have gone from being extras to becoming superstars. In this, the TVB model plays a very critical role.

As for the decline of Hong Kong film and television later, it had little to do with Shaw Yi-fu.

However, in Yang Ming's previous life, after Shaw Yi-fu passed away, TVB did begin to decline.

This is enough to show that Shaw Yi-fu did play a very important role in the management of TVB.

"You asked me to poach those actors from Sir Yang?"

Shaw Yi-fu looked at Fang Yi-hua and asked in disbelief.

"No, the actors want to leave on their own, and Sir Yang can't stop them." Fang Yi-hua seemed to have thought of the same thing a long time ago.

Shaw Yi-fu thought of it.

It's not that simple.

Now Sir Yang not only owns the Asia Television, Asia Film Company, Asia Record Company, and Asia Film City in Hong Kong, but also has many film giants in the United States.

This is not something he can compare to at all.

Moreover, for Sir Yang, the Hong Kong film and television industry is only a small part.

That time, he met Sir Yang, and Sir Yang also reminded him that Hong Kong film and television must make a transformation, otherwise, there will be a dead end in the future, including the TV station.

Sir Yang's opinion at that time had a great influence on Shaw Yi Fu. He also began to make changes to TVB and Shaw Brothers Film and Television, and began to put part of the market into the domestic market.

In other words, to develop the domestic market.

For example, Asia Television cooperated with TV stations in Guangdong Province to develop cooperation in Cantonese-speaking areas such as the Pearl River Delta, and Asia Television opened a Mandarin channel, which was aimed at more domestic audiences.

TVB also followed Asia Television to make changes.

"Let me think about it."

In terms of film and television, Shaw Yi Fu has never been a person who never admits defeat.

It's just a pity that he was betrayed by Zou Wenhuai first, and then met Sir Yang's strong capital, plus he is old, so naturally he is no longer the same as before.

However, as long as he is still alive, he has always wanted to make it bigger and stronger in the film and television industry.

"Sir, there is nothing to think about. Sir Yang asked you to be the first president, and it was also considering your contribution and influence on Hong Kong film and television."

. . .

Liang Shuyi left Shaw Yi Fu's home in Clearwater Bay and took a car directly to the Repulse Bay Mid-Levels Villa to meet the boss.

At the Repulse Bay Mid-Levels Villa.

Liang Shuyi met Yang Ming.

"Boss, I went to see Mr. Shao. However, at first, Mr. Shao refused the position of president. But after I saw Miss Fang winked at him, she said she would consider it for three days."

Reject?

"Why did you refuse?"

"He said he was too old to be competent."

Old?

Yang Ming couldn't help laughing. He knew it was impossible.

At this age, Shao Yifu was unwilling to give up power to TVB and Shaw Brothers. How could he think that he was too old to be competent?

The other party was clearly just worried about his existence.

If he didn't exist, Shao Yifu would definitely be the president.

"No matter what, Mr. Shao has made great contributions to Hong Kong's film and television. I recommended him to be the president because I was fair-minded. Of course, if he is unwilling, then the first president can only be a white person."

Why a white person?

In fact, Yang Ming still considered the system, including the rules and regulations of the Hong Kong Artists Association.

He knew very well that if the first president did not do a good job, then the next successor might be worse and worse.

"Boss, why Mr. Shao?"

"He has the ability, the energy, and the influence."

As for Yang Ming?

Although Yang Ming now has many titles in Hong Kong, including the president of the Hong Kong Football Association, and various other titles, it stands to reason that he can have one more title, and at most he can send other people to manage it.

However, Yang Ming still recommended Shao Yifu to be the first president of the Hong Kong Artists Association, just for the sake of fairness, justice and openness.
