1305 [Asian Sister Finals]
"Boss, Sony agrees to jointly acquire Columbia-Samsung Films with us!" After dealing with Qiu Shuzhen's incident, Xia Tian received a call he had always dreamed of.
"Really?! It's great!" He said happily when he heard this.
"But it also put forward some conditions, and I hope we can agree." Michelle said again.
"What conditions?" Xia Tian was stunned and said in confusion.
"Sony hopes that after the acquisition, they will serve as chairman." Michelle reported, "and hopes that Colombia will cooperate with Sony's development strategy and prohibit us from engaging in the production and sales of electronic products."
"You tell them that their people can be chairman, but I must be CEO. And during my administration, I was in charge of the company's full operation and Sony people are not allowed to interfere with my work.
I also promised them that I would help Columbia Pictures turn losses into profits within two years. If I perform poorly, I would resign myself." Xia Tian thought for a while.
"I basically agree with Columbia Pictures in conjunction with Sony's development strategy, but the premise is that it does not harm its own interests."
"As for the ban on electronic products, I will never agree with this." Xia Tian said again, "But you can tell them that even if I make and sell electronic products, I will not compete head-on with Sony."
He knew that Sony acquired Columbia Pictures to promote its video recorders, video discs, Blu-ray discs, etc. However, what Sony did not expect is that with the development of the Internet in the future, these electronic products will eventually decline.
As far as he knows, the Blu-ray technology launched by Sony and Panasonic, Philips, Samsung and others in the past life defeated the HD-DVD technology advocated by Toshiba and NEC, but the Blu-ray technology did not last long and basically faced elimination after it was launched.
Because with the development of Internet technology, online download and streaming services allow people to watch movies anytime and anywhere, without having to rent and buy movie discs like before.
So summer will not be as stupid as Sony, investing huge amounts of money and striving to develop these technologies and products. However, in the future, he will also be preparing to study MP3, MP4, smartphones, etc., which are also electronic products. If they cannot be produced and sold, summer will undoubtedly make a lot of money, so of course he will not agree.
Michelle nodded and remembered Summer's reply, "Okay, boss, I'll go and respond to Sony right away."
"Yeah." Xia Tian smiled. No matter what, it would be a good thing for him to agree to the joint acquisition of Colombia.
As for how to acquire and how to deal with it later, it is all a matter of details. You can discuss it slowly in the future, as long as the general direction is not wrong.
...
Just as Michelle was busy negotiating with Sony, the Hong Kong Sister Asian Beauty Pageant officially kicked off.
As the chairman of ATV, Xia Tian was invited to serve as a judge in the finals and will present awards to the final champion.
The final was held at 8 o'clock, and he arrived at ATV at 7 o'clock.
The backstage was really busy. Not only the staff were busy, but the beauties were also busy. They put on makeup, tried fitting, warmed up, opened their voices... to make final preparations for the next big show.
"Everyone pay attention!" Yu Meiren, director of the variety show department, clapped her hands, "Chairman Xia is here to visit everyone, applaud!"
Hearing her shouting, the beauties followed the reputation. When they saw Xia Tian, they quickly stopped what they were doing and stood up and applauded at the same time.
"Thank you everyone" Xia Tian nodded, and then, accompanied by Yu Meiren, he met the twenty beauties who entered the finals one after another.
Li Meifeng, Yang Baoling, Li Jiaxin, Qiu Shuzhen... Each beauties are full of life and in various shapes, which simply turns this backstage into the Grand View Garden in "Dream of Red Mansions".
"Congratulations to everyone for entering the finals! You can stand out from 150,000 people, proving that you are really excellent and powerful. I hope you can also show your best condition today and show your unique beauty." Xia Tian smiled and encouraged, "I look forward to your performance, cheer for you! Everyone, work hard!"
"Thank you, Chairman Xia!" The beauties were moved when they heard him say this. Several of them even burst into tears, not knowing whether they were really moved or acting.
"Okay, everyone, keep preparing, I won't disturb you anymore. Let's see you on the stage later!" Xia Tian smiled and then stepped out.
"Wow! Mr. Xia is more handsome than being on camera!"
"Mr. Xia is so nice, he has no airs at all!"
"He seemed to look at me before leaving. Could it be interesting to me?"
After leaving in summer, the beauties chirped.
Seeing this, Qiu Shuzhen couldn't help but shake her head. She had seen with her own eyes how terrible Xia Tian was. Her humble and approachable look just now was just his skin. In fact, he was a big devil, and it was not worth the life to kill anyone. Poor people even regarded him as a good person, and they didn't know how he would be eaten alive by him.
Li Jiaxin glanced at everyone coldly, her eyes full of disdain. These people have never seen the world before, but when they met Xia Tian, they were so excited that they didn't know what it was. It was really embarrassing.
It’s not like myself, I can see Xia Tian at any time if I want to see Xia Tian, and I often learn about Xia Tian’s latest news from my mother. It can be said that my understanding of Xia Tian is even greater than that of Wang Xiaoxian who sleeps by his side every day.
"Hmph, you scumbags don't have to daydream! If anyone among the people present can catch up with Chairman Xia, that person can only be me!" Li Jiaxin sneered in his heart.
The military strategy is full of knowledge, know yourself and your enemy, and you will never be defeated in a hundred battles! With her understanding of Xia Tian, as long as she finds the right opportunity and takes what she likes, she can guarantee that she can take him down. And even if these beauties want to attack Xia Tian, they will hit the wall like headless flies.
...
After leaving the beauties' lounge in summer, I happened to meet the old naughty boy Huang Zhan.
When he saw Xia Tian coming out of the Beautiful Lounge, he immediately smiled, "How about it, A Tian, have you feasted your eyes?"
Xia Tian was stunned and then smiled, "It's indeed a charming and beautiful country. Uncle Zhan, you really have a vision. I really want to thank you for choosing such a beautiful beauties!"
"If you want to thank me, please ask me to be a judge next year." Huang Zhan smiled, "I'm really a feast for all the beauties these days!"
After hearing what he said, Xia Tian couldn't help laughing.
Huang Zhan is really worthy of being the "Godfather of Unculturedness"!
"Don't worry, Uncle Zhan, as long as you are willing to come, I will definitely welcome you." He then smiled.
Although Huang Zhan is unruly and loves beauty all his life, he is not obscene and has a very elegant style as an ancient literati. Xia Tian also admires him quite well, so naturally he will not destroy his elegance.
"Okay, one word is certain." Huang Zhan smiled happily when he agreed.
Although he now has a beautiful girl Lin Yanni, he still has no change in his romantic nature and often goes to nightclubs with his old friends. But he can get money by being a beauty judge of the Asian Sisters.
Furthermore, in terms of beauty, how can those nightclub dancers compare to Yajie's beauties? Therefore, it is really cheap to be the judge of Yajie's beauty pageant.
Xia Tian couldn't help laughing when he saw him laughing happily.
...
At 7:30, the audience entered the studio one after another.
At 7:45, Xia Tian sat in the judges with all the guests.
Today, the judges included Huang Zhan, Li Hanxiang, Cai Lan, Shi Nansheng, Liu Peiji and Xia Tian.
Liu Peiji is a well-known clothing stylist in Hong Kong. Mei Yanfang was once called the "Queen of Changes" in her previous life. It was because Liu Peiji successfully created a variety of styles for her, which made her name of change deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
At eight o'clock, the Asian Sister Beauty Pageant final officially began.
The finals are live broadcasts. If the performance is not good, they will be broadcast live, which will be embarrassing in front of millions of Hong Kong people. Therefore, there are certain pressure on the program team, the host, the beauties, and the judges.
The hosts of this final are hosted by Liu Zhirong, Wu Junru, Xia Chunqiu and Fang Fang. From the beginning, they were cheongsams and walked the show!
I don’t know who said that cheongsam can best highlight the curvaceous beauty of women. Its upper part is tight, highlighting the female’s chest; the middle part is tightened, outlining the female’s slender waist; the lower part is wrapped around the neck, showing the female’s siding; the hem of the skirt is slit, revealing a pair of beautiful legs.
Zhang Manyu in "The Mood for Flowers", Tang Wei in "Lust and Caution", Lin Zhiling in "The Taoist Goes to the Mountain", and Zhang Ziyi in "The Grandmaster"...
Every actress shows her most moving side through a cheongsam.
Now, twenty beauties are also appearing in cheongsams, and their curves are revealed for a moment, and their figures are graceful, which is really beautiful.
"Wow!" Not only were the audiences in the audience and in front of the TV stunned, but even the judges were amazed and reluctant to blink.
"A Tian, I really didn't expect this scene!" Huang Zhan smiled and said to Xia Tian, "These beauties are so beautiful when wearing cheongsams!"
"Uncle Zhan, I didn't expect it." Xia Tian nodded and said.
During the second Asian Sister Beauty Pageant last year, he provided a lot of suggestions. However, this year, he let go and asked the people from the ATV Variety Show Department to prepare for it themselves.
After all, no matter how capable he is, he will not be able to finish everything alone. In that case, it will be unfavorable to the company. Therefore, he should let go in time and cultivate talents to take over.
It seems that the colleagues of the ATV variety show department were also thinking about it this time. The first game was a cheongsam show, which immediately showed the beauty of the beauties. It was amazingly beautiful, which made Xia Tian feel like she was lit up. It was really amazing.
"Mr. Xia, you ATV are interested." Li Hanxiang smiled.
Chapter completed!
