"It's been half a year since the Performing Arts Center opened. This is the first time I've stood on this stage." Chen Chong stood on the stage of the main theater of Jiajia Performing Arts Center, rubbed his hands and joked: "It is said that this is the most difficult stage in Taipei, and it's harder to get on the rostrum of the Legislative Yuan..."

There was a burst of laughter and applause from the audience.

This main theater can accommodate nearly 17UU of famous audiences, and is currently the largest and best professional indoor performance venue in Taiwan and even Southeast Asia. Every time you perform, whether it is a movie premiere, a stage play, a musical or a traditional drama, the attendance rate remains above 80%. However, now, there are only more than 40 people sitting in the audience in total - they are not audiences, but all employees of the Oriental Charming Taiwan branch and affiliated companies.

At noon, Shen Chongda went from Yuanshan Hotel to the Performing Arts Center to hold an annual meeting of the Oriental Charming Taiwan branch. First, it encouraged its employees who have been suppressed and ravaged by the Taiwan government in the past six months, and second, it was preparing to take advantage of the opportunity of organizing a TV station to integrate the movies, music, magazines, and theater troupes invested in Taiwan, and transform them from their own government into an organic whole.

He is going to Hsinchu tomorrow, and back to Hong Kong the day after tomorrow. He will go to the United States after Jiayi TV Music Station is broadcast. He can only take a break from his busy schedule and do it at lunch break. Otherwise, if he drags on, he can only wait until next year. Time is worth an inch. He doesn't want those talented filmmakers or musicians to waste the entire 19RU year...

"I'm so sorry. I called you here for a meeting at noon, especially today, it's still so hot." Chen Chongxian apologized on a routine basis and then began to talk about the serious matters: "Today we are gathered, in name, it's an annual meeting, but in fact it's not. I'm here to curse people today."

"The purpose of the annual meeting is to summarize the past and look forward to the future, but think about it, what are you going to sum up? I started investing in April last year, and it has been a year and a half since now. The achievements you have made can be counted with ten fingers."

"Records? Rolling Stones, Flying Sauce, Tianshui Le Ji, and not finished..." Tianshui Le Ji is an independent music studio formed by musicians such as Li Shouquan, Li Jianfu and Cai Qin after the Film Awards. Chen Chong is also a financial supporter. He raised his hand and pointed the circle of people sitting in the corner, and then continued to criticize: "Movies? Or the two films made last year; magazines? Sales are not as good as Hong Kong, which is only one quarter of Taiwan's population; stage plays, back and forth, are old dramas that have been rehearsed before, and the new dramas have only one "Hozhu New Pair". If I remember correctly, this is a work that has been brewing last year."

"Don't tell me that art needs time to think and refine. You are not alone, but a group of people. When Jin Shijie is thinking, Li Liqun, what do you have? When Luo Dayou is refinement, Hou Dejian, what do you have? Hou Hsiao-hsien... Forget it, I'm too lazy to talk about the movie."

He is rich and willing to spend money, and has the advantage of being foresighted. Therefore, although he did not come to Taiwan much, he recruited almost all popular culture celebrities in Taiwan in the early RU era, including short-lived people and soft-mouthed people. This group of famous celebrities who are familiar to fans and opera fans in later generations were all trained by him! His face was blushed, and he was as obedient as a little lamb.

"Life is too comfortable, and work is tiring. You are all inappropriate. Someone must whip it with a whip in the back before you think about going to live. Art is also a job, but it is just a talent. You are all rare talents. Don't waste your talent." Chen Chong pressed his chest with his thumb and said in a bad voice: "I tell you clearly now that from today on, I am the whip. I will never give up until you suck it."

"I know that people who play culture are very noble, proud, and like to do whatever they want and do not like to restrain themselves. You must be disgusted when I speak like this. Some people may want to leave and leave now. I will not charge a penalty for liquidated contract." Chen Chong pointed to the door, made an indifferent expression, and said coldly: "I can tell you very confidently that all of you have to work hard for a lifetime. The profits you can bring to the company may not be as much as me in one year, a month, or even spend a lot of money this morning. The ancients learned literature and martial arts and made money from the imperial family. Now there is no emperor. Your talents can only be sold to capitalists like me. So, don't be too proud. I don't have talent, nor do I have the power of the emperor, but I can make you hungry."

The audience was silent and the atmosphere was depressed.

"I have invested in building such a good recording studio and such a large stage. It's not to show off my wealth, but to show off. I will go to New York, Paris or Tokyo, and I will get praise and satisfaction in those places, a hundred times as much as Taipei. The reason why I do this is just to hear or see some good works of art.

"Making money, you can't do it, art, I can't do it." Chen Chong felt that the big stick had almost been swung, so he summed up the bombardment with a classic line from Chiang Kai-shek in the Founding Ceremony, then sighed lightly, slowed down his tone, and said, "The more you lack, the more you want, this is a famous saying. I am a businessman full of stinky money, and I have no culture. I can only do some artful things to decorate the store. Dear, everyone, you work harder and frame my stinky face to look better. OK? I also rely on it to pick up girls."

A few heartless chucklings came from the audience, but they quickly calmed down.

"Okay, the past has been summarized, and now we will look forward to the future." Chen Chong bulged his palms twice to boost the atmosphere in the venue, and then said: "I have never seen the almanac. I only know that today is August. In Cantonese, 8 is homophonic with 'fa, 'and', homophonic, 'and', and 'homophonic, 'and', and 'homophonic, 'for long time, it should be a good day. So I announced that from today on, the Oriental Charming Taiwan Film Branch will be reorganized into the Taiwan Branch of Oriental Charming Group. In the future, movies, music, magazines, and theater troupes will be included in a system, unified management, unified planning, and strengthen complementarity and interaction with the Hong Kong headquarters..."

He opened the white set board behind him, pointed to the diagram above, explained the organizational structure of the future company in a concise manner, and then announced the personnel appointment: "Mr. Duan Zhongyi will serve as the general manager of the Taiwan branch of Oriental Charming Group, Mr. Li Yuan will serve as the film department manager, Mr. Zhuo Botang will serve as the magazine department manager, and Mr. Yu Yushui will serve as the financial and fixed asset investment department manager. As for Rolling Stones, UFOs, Tianshui Leji and Lanling Drama House, they will still maintain independent operations. The headquarters is not involved in daily operations, but will audit financial details."

Duan Zhongyi worked at China Film and also ran a magazine. She is very knowledgeable about film, music and publishing industries. She has a wide social circle in Taiwan. She built the Rolling Stone into the largest Chinese record company in her previous life. She has great business capabilities and is the best candidate to serve as the general manager.

Li Yuan, whose pen name Ono, was a famous best-selling writer in Taiwan in the 1970s. He went to the United States to study in 1979, but soon dropped out of school and returned to Taiwan. He joined China Film and Television as deputy manager and planning team leader of the production planning department. He was then poached by Shen Chong to Oriental Charm and replaced Zhang Aijia as the manager of the Taiwan branch. This person was historically one of the flag bearers of the new film movement in Taiwan. Classic Taiwanese films such as "The Story of Time", "A Day on the Beach", and "Terrorists" were filmed under his guidance.

The editor-in-chief of "The Movie Age" was originally Qiu Gangjian, but he was disheartened by the repeated difficulties of the Taiwan government. In July, he resigned on the grounds of concentrating on writing scripts. Zhuo Botang took over. As for Yu Yushui, whose name is very auspicious, he was an anonymous sent from the Oriental Charming Miscellaneous Secretariat. Celebrities need to be recruited, and capable passers-by also need to pay attention to...

After the personnel appointment, he took out a stack of thick folders, yang Yang, and threatened again: "This is the work task for the second half of this year. Every department and everyone must complete it. If it cannot be completed, don't blame me for not giving face."

Chen Chong has always believed that the core of management is nothing more than just being devoted to life. To achieve this goal, there has been only one way from ancient times to the present, which is coercion and temptation. In layman's terms, it is to use big sticks and carrots together. The coercion has been used just now, so it is time to use temptation.

"Okay, I've scolded the past and decided on the future. Now I'll come to the last item of today's annual meeting. I'll give some souvenirs to commemorate the official establishment of Oriental Charm in Taiwan - the previous year and a half, which can only be considered trial operation."

He waved, and Zhang Aijia walked out from behind the scenes with a small flatbed cart piled up with red and white paper bags printed with oriental charm.

After Zhang Aijia pushed the car to the center of the stage, she hid aside, stuck out her tongue and made a scared face. Many people smiled, making the atmosphere lighter again.

Chen Chong took a bag, opened it, took out a square box from it, lifted it up, and said while showing it: "Omega, the right time of life, everyone, time cannot be kept. After all, it is gone east, please cherish it." (Note)

Then he took out a rectangular box from the bag, opened it, and said, "Montblanc ink pen, we can't keep time, but we can keep memory and feelings. This is a tool for crafting time. Please use it more... If the watch is broken, you can repair it yourself. If this is broken, come to me again."

Zhang Aijia spread her hands behind her, shook her head and smiled bitterly, and made a helpless expression, despising his unromantic spirit of burning the piano and boiling the crane. There was a burst of laughter in the audience - firstly, her expression was indeed fun, and secondly, these two souvenirs were valuable luxury goods, and they were very likable luxury goods, and no one didn't like it.

Amid the laughter, Chen Chong began to send gifts one by one, starting from Duan Zhongyi to Huang Yunling, she was the youngest employee, less than 16 years old.

"Thank you, Mr. Chen."

"Okay, I didn't scold you just now, it doesn't mean I won't scold you in the future."

Huang Yunling stuck out her tongue and jumped off the stage with a smile. Before she could sit back again, Chen Chong waved his hand and announced: "Okay, the grand, united, harmonious, beautiful, memorable annual meeting ended successfully. Let's disband, go back to their own houses, do their own things, and leave without sending them away."

Everyone knew that he had more important things to do in the afternoon. Everyone walked past the stage in groups of three or three with different expressions, said a few words of farewell, and then they scattered the birds and beasts, and the theater soon became empty.

Luo Dayou, Lee Zongsheng, Hou Dejian, Li Shouquan, Liang Hongzhi...

Qi Yu, Cai Qin, Li Jianfu, Chen Shuhua, Huang Yingying...

Hou Hsiao-hsien, Chen Kunhou, Jin Shijie, Li Liqun, Gu Baoming...

Looking at the young and energetic faces passing by, Chen Chong felt like a military parade. Although these soldiers were indecently orderly, this was my real career, and the rest were just playing games with plug-ins.

"Why were you so fierce just now?"

"It's not ferocious." Chen Chongshao smiled and said, "If a scholar meets a soldier, he can't explain it clearly. If he deals with literary and artistic people, he must be forced to take the blame."

"Nonsense, they are all easy to talk to." Zhang Aijia asked with his arm in his hand: "Did the talks go smoothly in the morning?"

"It went very smoothly, and we basically agreed. We can't go in the afternoon." Chen Chong used a golden sledgehammer to get all the terms he wanted in the morning. In the afternoon, he only planned to make a clay-sculpted Bodhisattva to show off. He looked at the theater, and then teased him terrified: "Do you know, I have always wanted to do something strange on this stage...

"You're going to die"
