The next day, Xia Tian went to visit Sir Shao.

The ones I carried with me were also a pair of Kangxi pastel vases.

Sir Shao is good at literary play, and the villa is full of antique calligraphy and paintings.

This pair of vases was bought by me in summer and spent 500,000 Hong Kong dollars.

If placed in later generations, these vases can be sold for at least HK$3 million.

"Just!" Xia Tian greeted respectfully when he came to Sir Shao's office.

For this old senior who has been in the Hong Kong film industry for 30 years and has made great contributions to the development of Hong Kong films, no matter how arrogant Xia Yan is, he will be respected.

"You won't go to the Three Treasures Palace for nothing. Oh, I've brought me a gift! It seems that I'm going to bleed again this time." Shao Yifu joked with a smile when he saw Xia Tian.

During this period, Xia Tian has taken away a lot of good things from him. His theaters, his directors, his artists, his employees... In short, as long as he comes, he will always have to lose something.

Xia Tian smiled awkwardly, and the intention was suddenly pointed out by someone, which made him embarrassed to speak again.

"Jazz, I just collected a pair of pastel vases imitating Kangxi in the Republic of China. I don't know if it is true or false, please help me identify it." Xia Tian hurriedly opened the box and changed the topic.

As soon as the box was opened, two exquisite porcelain appeared in front of the jazz.

On the thin white bottle, the peony flowers are beautiful in the sky, competing for beauty. Two beautiful butterflies play with flowers, lifelike.

After Sir Shao took a look, he was instantly attracted by it.

He carefully took out the vase and then came to his eyes to appreciate it carefully.

From the shape of the instrument to the pattern, from the bottle mouth to the bottom of the body, from the painter to the glaze, Sir Shao looked very seriously.

Xia Tian stood aside and waited patiently.

Ten minutes later, Sir Shao couldn't put down the vases and put them back into the box.

"Jazz, are these vases real or not?" Xia Tian asked with a smile at this time.

"When did you say it just now?" Sir Shao answered without haste and slowly sipped the tea ceremony.

"The Republic of China was imitated in the year of Kangxi," Xia Tian replied, "It cost me 50,000 Hong Kong dollars."

"Then you have found a big leak. Tell you, boy, your vase is not imitated by Kangxi in the Republic of China, but it is from the Kangxi period." Sir Shao smiled, "It can be sold at least 400,000 Hong Kong dollars now."

"Really?!" Xia Tian pretended to be shocked.

"Well, the person who sold it to you probably didn't know the goods, so he mistakenly treated Feng Jing as a horse. "Sir Shao smiled, "The things are good, the quality is intact, and they are from the official kiln, please keep them."

Xia Tian smiled, "Jazz, you can't even tell me that I can't even tell the difference. What's the point of playing? I'll give you this pair of vases, please keep them."

"Give it to me?" Sir Shao was stunned, "How can you be embarrassed?"

"It's okay, I'll buy it for 50,000 Hong Kong dollars anyway." Xia Tian smiled, "Just treat it as my junior, who respects you."

Sir Shao laughed, "Okay, then I'll accept these vases. Boy, let's talk about your purpose now. See if I can help you."

Xia Tian also smiled and knew that Sir Shao had understood.

That’s right! As the saying goes, people are old and ghosts are old and ghosts are old and spirits are old!

Sir Shao has been working hard in this industry for decades, but he has never seen any tricks. How can he hide his little thoughts from others?

"It's such a jazz. I have several things here this time I want to ask for your help." Seeing that someone had seen through his tricks, Xia Tian simply stopped going around in circles and told the truth.

"I knew you would go to the Three Treasures Hall without any trouble. Okay, just say it." Sir Shao nodded and smiled.

He had a very good impression of Xia Tian, ​​a young man. His father was loyal and made great contributions to the company. He was also the son of a loyal minister and was well-off, so naturally Sir Shao looked down on him.

After getting in touch with it, Sir Shao discovered that Xia Tian had many advantages, such as shrewdness, ability, and ambitiousness, which was almost exactly the same as when he was young, so he became more and more impressed with him.

"That's right, sir, you know that our company has just been established, and all industries are waiting to be promoted and needs talents. Can you support me more?" Xia Tian asked.

Sir Shao smiled slightly, "Who are you interested in again this time?"

"Chris Chung and Andy Lau." Xia Tian said directly.

"Your vision is poisonous." Sir Shao was stunned, and then smiled, "Chris Chung is the pillar of our Shaw Brothers, and Liu Dehua is a young student with great potential. If you poach them all for me, then I am not unavailable."

"How could I let you suffer a loss from Jazz? I will pay for the contract between them and sign a joint agreement with Jazz. In the future, you will need to invite them to film, just pay according to the pay agreed in the contract, and I will make up for all the differences." Xia Tian quickly explained.

Celebrities are all seafood prices, and the market is very unstable. A year ago may still be a hot star, but there are many people who are not interested in it a year later. Similarly, it is not uncommon for the box office poison a year ago to become a box office magic medicine a year later. Therefore, signing a joint contract is a gambling, betting on a star's fortune.

If a celebrity develops more popular in the future than now, then before signing a senior contract with a low pay, the film company will naturally make a profit. Of course, celebrities will feel unhappy when taking on roles with a low pay.

If the stars' future development is not as good as expected, their pay will be reduced. Then paying the pay at the previously agreed price will also make a big loss, and of course they will not be happy.

However, now there is Xiatian to help you with the bottom line and be responsible for making up for the difference, so that both parties are satisfied, so there is no need to worry about winning or losing.

"Okay, I'll help you again for Shuliang's sake." Sir Shao thought for a while, then said, "But don't make any more decisions about me in the future, my family's fortune will be almost emptied by you."

"Yes, Sir Shao." Xia Tian smiled happily when he heard this.

"But I can only give you Chung Chuhong." Sir Shao said again, Xia Tian's face suddenly froze. Just as he was about to say something, Sir Shao said again, "Because you are one step late, Liu Dehua has been signed by Zhang Guozhong, the artist."

"Ah?!" Xia Tian was speechless when he heard this.

Zhang Guozhong is a gold medal manager in Hong Kong. He worked with Teddy Robin at Zhucheng Film Company and has made many well-known and popular movies, such as "Pointing to the Bingbing", "Mountain Dog", "Hu Yue's Story", etc., and is considered the promoter of the new trend of Hong Kong films.

Because of his collaboration in filming "The Story of Hu Yue", Zhang Guozhong and Zhou Runfa became friends. The two formed a film dancer together, which is the predecessor of the Art Company. In the early days, they mainly managed Zhou Runfa's acting activities in Nanyang. Because Fazi's TV series became popular in Nanyang at that time, many Nanyang customers invited him to perform on stage.

After the sign was launched, many artists commissioned him to act on behalf of the performance, which made Zhang Guozhong gradually grow into the most popular star agent in Hong Kong. For example, Liu Dehua, Zhou Runfa, Tan Fenglin, Li Keqin, Zhang Weijian, etc. were all his artists.

Because of its many stars, each of them are box office superstars, Zhang Guozhong has become a hot spot in the eyes of Black X Club. In order to get film contracts for those stars, Zhang Guozhong was even over-pointed by them.

Xia Tian couldn't help feeling speechless when she heard that Liu Dehua was signed away by Zhang Guozhong in advance.

Last time he was about to sign Zhou Runfa, he was also told that he had signed Zhang Guozhong. Unexpectedly, the same was true for signing Liu Dehua this time.

"Then I'll give me Miss Zhong first, and I'll find a way out on Andy Lau." Xia Tian said with a smile.

Since Zhang Guozhong signed Liu Dehua, he would definitely make money. Since that's the case, it would be even easier. Just pay the pay according to the industry rules.

Sir Shao nodded. After Shaw Brothers closed, Chu Hong is also a hero who has no use of skills. Of course, it is not possible to put it aside. The competition in the Hong Kong entertainment industry is fierce, and even a first-tier star is not stable in status, and he is squeezed down by later generations every minute.

If you lend it casually, it may not increase the value. It would be better to give you a favor and let Xia Tian take care of it. With his ability, Cherie Chung will probably make Cherie Chung more popular than before. He holds his head in his hand, and if he wants to make a movie, he can transfer her back to film again. Even if she doesn't become famous after she goes out, at least the money for buying a piece of the appointment is paid, no matter how you calculate it, it is a business that will make a profit without losing money.

"Jazz, I want to ask for help." Xia Tian said then.

"You kid is really trying to be more greedy, what's the matter?" Sir Shao cursed with a smile.

"That's not that Jazz, you are kind and kind and love us young people, so I dare to be arrogant with you." Xia Tian smiled, "That's right, Jazz, I know you have a distribution channel in South Korea. I wonder if you can help me sell our company's movies to Korea?"

"You want to release the movie to South Korea? You have a lot of ambitions." Sir Shao was stunned, "But this is not easy to do. Although the Korean people like Hong Kong films, the senior Koreans do not like it. They believe that our Hong Kong films have suppressed the development of their domestic films, so they have always adopted a policy of restricting imports for our Hong Kong films."

Xia Tian nodded. He could understand this policy, which was the same as the mainland's restriction on imports of American blockbusters. If this policy was not available, the quality of the mainland's bad movies would definitely be beaten by American blockbusters so much that their mothers would not recognize them.

"It is precisely because of this that I have to ask you for help." Xia Tian smiled, "Your connections are still there and the channels are still there, so please be a middleman."

"Okay. But the ironwork must be strong himself. Even if I can help you release it, whether you can achieve a high box office depends on your own level." Shao Yifu's eyes lit up and he nodded.

During the heyday of Shaw Brothers, its distribution network was spread all over the world. Nanyang, Taiwan, the United States, and Canada had its theaters, and movies produced by Shaw Brothers could be sold in Europe, South America, Australia, and even Africa.
