1376 [New Servant]
I returned to Hong Kong in summer and returned home first, but I saw that there was an extra woman at home.
The woman was about forty years old, with a very ordinary appearance and a honest look.
"Sir, you are back," she greeted respectfully.
"Uh, you are" Xia Tian was stunned and asked in confusion.
"Sir, this is a new servant, whose name is Ma Chunhua." Dai Sally quickly introduced.
"Oh." Xia Tian nodded, "Have you seen me?"
"She was chosen by her wife." Dai Sally said with a smile.
"" Xia Tian looked at the unkind face of the new servant and blinked speechlessly, "Since that's the case, then stay. If you don't know anything, just ask Sister Dai."
"Thank you sir." Ma Chunhua responded quickly.
Xia Tian nodded and then went back to the room to rest.
In the evening, Wang Qixian finished work and went home. When he saw Xia Tian, he happily threw himself into his arms, "Brother Tian, are you back?"
"Yes." Xia Tian felt her joy and couldn't help but feel very happy. "Come on, look at the gift I brought to you from Japan."
"Oh, I have nothing, and I have everything in Hong Kong. Why buy it from Japan? It's a problem." Wang Shixian said humbly as soon as he heard this.
"I was willing to buy you a gift, so why would I find it troublesome?" Xia Tian smiled, "And there may not be such a gift in Hong Kong." As he said that, he took out a gift box from his bag, opened it, and took out the gift.
"This is" Wang Qixian was surprised when he saw this gift, and saw that it was a bottle of sake, and the four Chinese characters "A Chinese Ghost Story" were written on the sake bottle.
"This is a sake launched by Japan last year. It is said that because your Age Ghost Story is too popular, the winery has launched this sake with your popularity. It is said that the sales volume is very good." Xia Tian said with a smile.
There are many names for Japanese sake, such as blessed life, blessed life, prolonged life for thousands of years, prolonged life for thousands of years, southern beauties, Echigo beauty, Qiandao beauty, Bolexing, An Yunhu, Northeast Spring, Bamboo Forest, Seven Sages, Unparalleled Chinese Sages, etc.
The reason for this is that there are too many Japanese wineries and the competition is too fierce. Therefore, in order to compete for customers, we have to be unique and work hard on the name. Just like Mr. Ma Ji said that stand-up crosstalk universe cigarettes.
Using well-known film and television works to create sales is also a method they have tried and tested. For example, Japanese sake is called Death, some are called Seven Samurai, some are called Rashomon, some are called Hundred Years of Solitude, and even Mitsui Shoujiu.
When A Chinese Ghost Story was released in Japan last year, it was very popular, so a winery came up with it and launched a sake wine branded with the name of the movie. I tasted it in summer and the taste was pretty good.
"Really?! Wow!" Wang Qixian couldn't help but feel surprised and happy when she heard Xia Tian say this. He didn't expect that his movie would be used as a signboard, which shows that he is really popular in Japan.
"How about it, there won't be such a gift in Hong Kong, right?" Xia Tian smiled, "Come on, I'll open it and let you taste it."
"Ah, no, let's keep it as a souvenir." Wang Qixian quickly stopped him.
This bottle of wine is very commemorative to her. She wants to keep it and doesn't want to drink it for the time being.
"Okay, listen to you." Xia Tian nodded, "By the way, did you leave the sister Ma downstairs behind?"
"Yes, what do you think of her?" Wang Qixian asked with a smile.
"Not very good. Why don't you choose a beautiful one?" Xia Tian shook his head and asked.
"A servant, you can do it. What's the point of being beautiful?" Wang Qixian said, staring at him with his eyes slanted and suspiciously.
"What kind of eyes are you looking at? Who do you think of me? Don't say I don't have that mind. Even if I have that mind, will I attack the servant?" Xia Tian said in a grievance, "I mean she is our servant at least. Not to mention how beautiful she is, at least she should behave well. Otherwise, if someone comes to visit her, it would be so embarrassing to see her."
It’s not that Xia Tian is picky. A family like them should be more particular about using it. Just like the Jia family in Dream of Red Mansions, even the maids in the mansion are more decent than the ladies in Xiaofu family.
"Then you say that, I'll quit her and change to a beautiful one." Wang Qixian felt that it made some sense when he heard him say this.
People like them are first-class in everything, but at least they shouldn't be too bad. Compared to Sister Wu who left, Sister Dai who left behind, Sister Ma's appearance is indeed worse.
"Forget it, since I have promised me to stay, it will be inappropriate to drive it away now. Let her do it first. If there is anything wrong with it in the future, then change people." Xia Tian waved his hand.
Although he hopes to change to a more beautiful servant, Sister Ma will be too innocent in that case. If she doesn't make any mistakes, she will lose her job. That's not good. Although Xia Tian is not a good person, she is not a bad person. Such things cannot be done.
"Well. Brother Tian, you are such a good person." Wang Qixian praised with a smile when he heard him say this.
Xia Tian was sent a good person card by her, and she couldn't help but feel amused and crying.
"By the way, are the business negotiations going smoothly when you go to Japan this time?" Wang Qixian asked curiously.
"It's pretty good. Sony has agreed to form an alliance with us to acquire Columbia Pictures. I think this company will be in our pocket in the near future." Xia Tian smiled.
"Really?! Wow!" Wang Qixian sighed happily when he heard this.
Before, she always thought that it was a bit whimsical to acquire Columbia Pictures in the summer. But now she feels that this goal seems to be unachievable.
"But don't tell this to the public in advance, I want to keep it a secret." Xia Tian reminded again.
He has settled the media, unions, officials, and public opinion in the United States, but Sony did not. After it proposed the acquisition, the opposition it received increased waves.
The reason is that in the past two or three years, Japan has made the American people feel deeply uneasy. Therefore, if they knew that Sony and Tianxia Pictures jointly acquired, they would probably be hostile to Tianxia Pictures again and put it on fire.
Therefore, Xia Tian means to acquire Colombia in the name of Tianxia Pictures, and then split the shares with Sony equally. In this way, the resistance will undoubtedly be much less and the success rate of the acquisition will increase a lot.
After considering it, Shaofu Morita also agreed to Xia Tian’s request. He decided to take over the acquisition by Tianxia Film Company, with Sony Company assisting.
