Although Tianxia Film is very important, Asian TV is also important. Both companies are indispensable. None of them have a development that will come to a halt is not good news for summer.

Zhou Liangshuyi has been working at ATV for a year and a half and she has performed very well and helped Xiatian manage ATV very well. Moreover, ATV is already used to her rule.

If Zhou Liang Shuyi leaves at this time, it will inevitably cause ATV to turmoil. And it is also a difficult problem to find who to be the successor. If you choose well, it will be just a matter of choice, but if you don’t choose well, it will be troublesome.

Therefore, appointing Zhou Liang Shuyi as the general manager of Tianxia Film Industry seems to be a very good idea, but in fact it is a bad idea to treat the symptoms but not the root cause.

"Uh..." Zhou Liangshuyi was stunned when she heard Xia Tian's question, and then said with a smile, "The company's deputy managers have performed quite well. I think they should be able to take over my job."

After hearing what she said, Xia Tian frowned and felt a little embarrassed.

It is unwise to directly reject Zhou Liang Shuyi's transfer application. Even if she accepts it, she will have grudges in her heart. It is naturally even more unwise to directly agree to her transfer, because in that case, ATV will be in chaos.

Although Zhou Liang Shuyi said that those deputy managers could take over her position, they had not been tested after all, so who would dare to promise? If they find that it doesn't work, wouldn't it be another trouble?

So after Xia Tian considered it, he said, "Madam Zhou, in principle, I still hope you will continue to serve as the general manager of ATV. If you insist on coming to Tianxia Pictures, I will not force you, but I still hope that you can find a suitable successor for Asian TV first and then leave."

"Then let it go." Zhou Liang Shuyi said helplessly after hearing Xia Tian say this.

It is easy to find a successor, but it is difficult to say whether it is suitable or not. To prove whether it is suitable, at least you must first fully delegate power and observe for at least one year to confirm that you are competent.

But in this case, the opportunity to be transferred to Tianxia Pictures as general manager has long been missed. After all, it is impossible for summer to let that position stay in vain for a year.

Therefore, although Xia Tian said it nicely and would not force himself to stay at ATV, the conditions he put forward had already limited himself to Asian TV, which made Zhou Liangshuyi a little unhappy.

"Madam Zhou, don't be sad. Although you may have missed the position of general manager of Tianxia Pictures, you may not have no chance of the position of general manager of Tianxia Entertainment Group." Xia Tian comforted him after a blow.

"General Manager of Tianxia Entertainment Group?" Zhou Liangshuyi was stunned, a little clear and a little confused.

"Yes, now Tianxia Pictures, Asian TV, Tianxia Comics, Mingpao Group, Fantasy World Magazine, Tianfeng Records, etc. are still fighting each other, but sooner or later I will integrate them into one." Xia Tian said with a smile, "Only by unity and cooperation can we achieve the greatest effect."

"Ah, it makes sense." Zhou Liang Shuyi's eyes lit up when she heard this.

The form of entertainment groups like this is not rare. Australian media tycoon Murdoch began to acquire newspapers, magazines, and TV stations as early as the 1970s to expand his influence. Just two years ago, he bought Fox, one of the Hollywood giants, and established his own TV network.

This kind of group development can maximize the expansion of channels, control public opinion, and enhance one's own voice and influence.

The reason why Murdoch was able to influence the British Prime Minister's election was known as the "king-maker" because he relied on his huge media group.

His news can be reported through TV, radio, newspapers, magazines, movies, the Internet, etc., and it is overwhelming and has a huge momentum. It can easily guide public opinion, mislead the people's hearts, and let people act according to his command. Therefore, whenever the British general election is in the United Kingdom, Murdoch can make trouble and influence the situation.

In order to win his support, those politicians had to move closer to him and frequently provide benefits for him. Even if the World News broke out in a wiretap scandal, he could still get away with the law and not bear any responsibility.

Xia Tian’s current power in Hong Kong is already quite strong, including Asian TV, Ming Pao Group, Tianxia Film, Tianfeng Records, Tianxia Comics, ATV Weekly, Fantasy World Magazine... These media are now under his control. If they are integrated together, then he will be the uncrowned king of Hong Kong, and even the Hong Kong Governor will be scared when he sees him.

Once I take over the position of general manager of Tianxia Entertainment Group, I will have great power. At that time, I can call on the wind and rain.

When Zhou Liang Shuyi thought of this, she couldn't help but feel moved.

In addition to being a successful TV person, she is also a member of the Legislative Council of Hong Kong and is also very interested in politics. If she can become the general manager of Tianxia Entertainment Group, it will undoubtedly be a great help to her political career.

"Mr. Xia, are you really willing to let me be the general manager of Tianxia Entertainment Group?" Zhou Liangshuyi asked in surprise.

"No, I just give you a chance to apply. Whether you can grasp it depends on your performance." Xia Tian explained, "If the Tianxia Entertainment Group is really integrated and completed, the energy will be very huge. The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. I must choose a suitable leader for it. You are already one of the candidates, and I am very optimistic about you, don't let me down."

"Well, that's OK." Zhou Liang Shuyi nodded when she heard him say this, but she was a little disappointed, "Then I will perform well and will not disappoint you."

"Okay." Xia Tian also said with a smile.

...

After hanging up the phone, Xia Tian considered the company's future development.

What he said to Zhou Liang Shuyi just now was that the plan to merge Tianxia Film, Asian TV, Tianxia Comics, etc. was not just open to his mouth, but had been brewing in his heart for a long time.

Xia Tian’s idea of ​​building a media empire has been around for a day or two. When he acquired Asia TV, Mingpao Group, and founded Tianfeng Records, he was already having this idea. Now that the maps of the media empire have basically been gathered, it is time to put them together.

Once integrated, the company will become the largest media group in Hong Kong, with influence covering various channels such as movies, TV, newspapers, magazines, comics, novels, etc., and is still in a leading position in each channel.

In this way, the power of this media group is really huge. It is no exaggeration to say that it is enough to make a big difference in Hong Kong. Therefore, it is undoubtedly more difficult to choose its general manager candidate.

Just as Xia Tian was considering how to integrate these media companies, the phone ringing suddenly rang.

When Xia Tian picked it up, it was Liao Yiyuan who called it.

"Mr. Xia, tell you two good news." Liao Yiyuan reported the good news as soon as he spoke.

"Mr. Liao, what good news is?" Xia Tian asked curiously.

"The "Red Sorghum" you invested in was released during the Spring Festival and achieved a box office of 130 million yuan. Congratulations!" Liao Yiyuan said with a smile.

When summer hears it, I feel happy.

At this stage, the RMB is still very valuable. If exchanged at the official exchange rate, one yuan is equal to two Hong Kong dollars.

That 130 million RMB is equivalent to 260 million Hong Kong dollars. Even if we divide the share and divide the dividends from Xiying, we can get at least 100 million Hong Kong dollars in summer.

"What is another good news?" Xia Tian asked with a smile again.

"This drama will be selected by the state to participate in the Berlin International Film Festival." Liao Yiyuan said with a smile again.

When Xia Tian heard this, his eyes lit up.

The reason he invested in the movie "Red Sorghum" was because it was the first Chinese film to win the Berlin Golden Bear Award.

Now it can participate in the exhibition, of course, for summer, it is the best news, happier than hearing that it earned 130 million yuan in box office.

"This is really great. When will I set off, I will follow you." Xia Tian said immediately.

As the producer of the film, he has the right to go to Berlin with the crew.

"That... are you going too?" Liao Yiyuan was stunned, not expecting Xia Tian to be so active.

"Of course, this is a good time to add glory to the country. How could I miss it?" Xia Tian smiled, "And with me, you don't have to worry about funding issues, I'll cover it all."

"Okay, I'll ask the leader for instructions." Liao Yiyuan said with a smile when he heard Xia Tian say this.

To be honest, the country's foreign exchange reserves are insufficient now, so the number of people participating in "Red Sorghum" has always caused great headaches for leaders. If they go less, they seem to be not taken seriously; if they go too much, they are not paid enough. If they go too much, they are not paid enough. If they can cover the funds in the summer, then this problem will be solved.

"Well, then I'll wait for your good news." Xia Tian smiled.
