Repulse Bay is located in the Southern District of Hong Kong Island. It is one of the most noble residential areas. The upper class people in Hong Kong either like mountains or beaches, so they choose these two places for residence. In particular, the beach is the best choice for summer heat dissipation. Several good bays in Hong Kong have developed villas. Among them, Repulse Bay has the longest history. The famous people in Hong Kong, such as Li family, Bao family and Zeng family, have their own villas here.

At this moment, in the low night, a villa with hundreds of square feet is shining with lights. Luxury cars are constantly coming in and out. If anyone can distinguish the license plate number, they will be surprised to find that almost all of the famous tycoons in Hong Kong have come. Although they usually have contacts, what kind of party can these big people come to attend ?

"I'm old, I've experienced too many things, and the world is changing more and more. It's for you young people. Now I've given my work to Yihua. I just want to watch how the world can change." Hair is almost gone, wearing a pair of wide glasses of the shriveled old man sighed so.

"I can't say that. Mr. Shao, you are much more energetic than all the old people of the same age I have seen. You believe in Buddhism and do so many good deeds. You are a world-famous philanthropist. San Francisco also designated September 8 every year as Shao Yifu day. The Buddha will surely bless you. It is not too late to talk about retirement after the age of 100. " It looks like a white man of about thirty to forty said with a smile next to him.

This is a somewhat strange scene. The bald, shriveled old man spoke in English, while the white man spoke Chinese - the standard Mandarin, not Cantonese - but the few people next to him looked like they should be.

"Yes, uncle Liu, it's too early for you to retire. TVB can't do without you." On the other side, a man who is also in his thirties laughs and answers, and then there is a chorus around.

The old man laughed, then frowned and coughed. A lady who was far away came to the old man and whispered a few words. Then she looked up and said sorry to Adrian: "I'm sorry. Mr. Cowell, Yifu is a little tired and needs to go back to rest. "

"It doesn't matter. I'm flattered that Mr. Shao can attend the reception in person." Adrian nodded politely, then shook hands with the old man. "Thank you for coming. I wish you well, Mr. Shao."

"Thank you, Mr. Cowell." The other party laughed and left with the help of his wife who was a few decades younger.

This shriveled old man has been in charge of TVB for decades, making it almost the largest family in Hong Kong, and Shao Yifu, a famous justice of the peace. Although the head of AC media's Hong Kong office sent an invitation to TVB when preparing for the reception, he did not really expect Shao Yifu to come. After all, he is over 90 years old. It's enough for TVB to come to several high-level officials. What he didn't expect was that he actually attended in person.

Although I only stayed for half an hour before and after, I spent most of my time talking to Adrian, which was quite face saving. And he wasn't the only one to give face. Guo's, Zheng's and Li's have their own representatives, such as the two who are talking with Adrian.

"To tell you the truth, after hearing about you for the first time, my first reaction is that it is impossible. I have met those directors in Hong Kong. They have talent. But it's almost impossible to run a group. "

"Yes, think of Huang Baiming, but it also shows that there are still talents in the world, big brother."

The two men in front of him, who were about the same age as Adrian, were wearing glasses, with slightly right eyes and slightly protruding teeth. But one had neat hair and the other had short hair, and the relationship between them was delicate. Just like the big brother, the small one seems to want to prove something, while the big one doesn't think so.

These two are Li zeju and Li Zekai, the two sons of Li Jiacheng, the owner of the Yangtze River industrial group. Although Li Jiacheng is not good at coming in person because of his seniority and other problems, his presence is equivalent to his coming in person. The same is true of the other families. If they all come in person, they will not be treated in the capital city. Therefore, it is not disrespectful to have representatives of close relatives present.

As for why Shao Yifu came in person, it is because the relationship between TVB and AC media is not quite the same. To be exact, TVB demands AC media in many places.

"That's because I have a good partner. I am in charge of the general direction, and he is responsible for the specific implementation. We have a good cooperation." Adrian said with a smile, "just like when I was in Stanford Business School, although I had nothing to do most of the time, I still remember a sentence that the professor of innovation and entrepreneurship once said. Only by giving full play to their strengths, avoiding their weaknesses, and being good at cooperation and adjustment, can we achieve success."

Speaking of this, he showed a sudden expression, and with a stronger smile, he raised the cup in his hand to the two young masters: "speaking of it, we are still alumni."

"That's true." Li zeju began to laugh, and Li Zekai also began to laugh. Then the three cups touched each other and made a jingle. Only the two brothers were making a fake smile.In my eyes, Adrian doesn't have much to say. Li family's affairs have nothing to do with him. However, if he can only choose one from another, he is more willing to deal with Li zeju. As the eldest son, he has been kidnapped, so he will be more kind, even if it is only a little bit. Li Zekai is young, proud and conceited. He also made it stocks listed rashly and then plummeted, which made many people like him, so that TVB used Li Xiaochao in the story of seeking Qin to allude and satirize him.

"But there is no doubt about Mr. Cowell's talent and ability. I often hear from some peers that Mr. Cowell supports half of AC media." At this time, a voice came in, and it was a well spoken Mandarin. Although the Li brothers wanted to open up the mainland market, they also knew Mandarin. But it's not a special standard.

Then, a fat face with glasses appeared in front of Adrian. In addition to Guo, Zheng, er Li, there were also many people with status, such as Liu Changle, chairman and President of Turkey satellite TV.

"Mr. Cowell's Chinese is very good. Although it has been mentioned for a long time, it is only when you hear it that you know how good it is." That's a compliment.

"Thank you for the compliment. I'm glad you can come, Mr. Liu." Adrian reached out and shook him.

"Speaking of it, Mr. Cowell is not only the chairman of AC media, but also a world-famous director. I don't know what you think of the future of Hong Kong movies. " Liu Changle then asked.

Hearing this, Adrian couldn't help but chuckle in his heart. They did their best.

It is not only because Adrian has come to Hong Kong that so many celebrities from Hong Kong can join us. AC media has not invested much here. However, if someone has said hello and asked these celebrities to help observe this American media tycoon, it will be another matter. If it was just a guess. Liu Changle intervened to guide the topic when he was observing the Li brothers. People in the circle all know that because Murdoch wanted to enter the mainland by acquiring satellite TV's Chinese channel, but the mainland side did not allow foreign investors to hold shares, so Liu Changle was transferred to buy part of the equity to become a major shareholder, and changed Murdoch to Turkey station, which pushed Murdoch to the third place. Therefore, the official behind him was the official Square color is relatively thick.

That's interesting. I'll show you more.

"It's a pity for me," Adrian said after clearing his throat. "I'm not sure what the future will be, but if Hong Kong films can fully cooperate with the mainland after the salvation work appears. It's totally invigorating. But in my opinion, the best time was ten or twenty years ago. "

Speaking of this, he sighed, as if he was really sorry: "at that time, Hong Kong's films and TV series, although many of them were rubbish, but also produced a lot of memorable boutiques, and all of them were extremely elegant."

Speaking of the last sentence. The men around him couldn't help smiling.

"I've always heard that Mr. Cowell is a romantic seed. Today I see Mr. Cowell deserves his reputation." Following Liu Changle, another big shareholder of Turkey satellite TV, said with a smile.

"I don't deserve it. I just follow my own heart." Adrian put down his glass and arched his hand with a smile.

This action makes a group of people feel a bit messy. The ghost guy doesn't speak English or Cantonese, but speaks Chinese. It's just that he speaks Chinese so fluently. It's just that he is familiar with various idioms and allusions. He also has such a set of movements as if he worshipped a mountain. Is it better to laugh at him for knowing nothing or to marvel that he knows everything?

"For example, Ms. Lin's Oriental invincible, Ms. Zhao's Bai Suzhen, and Ms. Chen's little dragon girl are all impressive. Although the other few lack their representative roles, they also have their own characteristics. For example, Ms. Zhong, I like her cooperation with Mr. Zhang and Mr. Zhou in "the world in full swing." Adrian didn't pay attention to their eyes, but continued to speak. Although he used miss and Mr. instead of actors' names, people around him basically knew who he was talking about.

"If I had been born ten years earlier, I would have tried to kiss Fangze." He finally concluded that there was no sense of taking it for granted.

People around him couldn't help but exchange their eyes. Some were surprised and some sighed. Finally, Liu Changle came out to play the game: "Mr. Cowell is really straightforward. I believe many people will not directly say it even if they have this idea."

"I know, in fact, it's really nothing. It's normal for men to pursue beautiful women," Adrian said, spreading his hands. "Isn't that the case for thousands of years

Liu Changle has a headache and a slight twitch in the corner of his mouth. The westerner in front of him really has enough Westerners. He speaks very directly, but he has a good understanding of Oriental culture. He even comes out with "my fair lady and gentleman's love". It's hard to say anything for a while. Fortunately, there are not many people around.

In fact, Adrian knows that he has gone too far. Even if he talks to people he first met at the reception, it is a little rude in the United States and Europe, let alone Hong Kong.But it's also good. If he shows too much understanding of Chinese culture, it will make people suspicious. Just like he couldn't direct crouching tiger, hidden dragon.

"No wonder Mr. Cowell's works this year focus on the charm of this woman." Li zeju added a sentence beside him.

"I just want to use the camera to capture those beautiful bodies and faces, the demeanor that can cause people to throb their souls. Just like those beauties ten or twenty years ago, although they are old, there are still their magnificent figures in the film, which can stimulate people's inspiration when creating." Adrian sighs that he is now an artist.

Just when Liu Changle sighed and didn't know what to say, a voice came over: "although it's a little inappropriate, I'm a fair lady. It's always true that a gentleman is fond of him

Liu Changle's face shape is similar to that of Liu Changle. He is also wearing glasses, bald forehead and slender glasses, about 70 to 80, with a refined temperament.

Adrian was obviously stunned when he saw the other side. It gives people a sense that they are familiar with each other but can't remember who they are.

"I don't think I'm that scary." The old man looked at himself and said in a humorous tone, and then there was a low smile around him.

"Of course not," Adrian responded, "I just don't know. Mr. Jin or Mr. cha. "

This sentence immediately attracted the eyes of surprise. They all thought that the ghost guy was already familiar with the Chinese culture. Unexpectedly, even the pen name and real name of this guy also knew, and the old man's smile became more and more enthusiastic.

"Jin Yong is just a pseudonym, Cha Liang Yong is his real name." He said with a smile.

"It seems that Mr. Cowell also likes Mr. Cha's novels." Liu Changle finally seized the opportunity to change the topic again.

"Yes. As a representative of the new school of martial arts novelists, Mr. Cha's books certainly need to be read. The snow shoots at the White Deer all the time, and the comic book god chivalrous man leans on the Bi Yuan, and all of them have gone down. " Adrian said with a smile, "I have to say that Mr. Cha has a good grasp of history. It's a very clever combination of story and history. It's novel and unconventional. No wonder people can't stop seeing it. "

"I'm flattered, Mr. Cowell." Cha Liangyong's smile suddenly became stronger.

Indeed, it is said that Zha Liangyong prefers to be praised as a writer and historian rather than a master of martial arts novels. For this reason, he also received a doctorate in history and a master's degree in Cambridge. Adrian also praised him. As for the actual situation, it doesn't matter. Zha Liangyong is also an old fox. When film and television companies make his novels into films, they ask him whether the actress meets the imagination of the heroine. Will he say yes? What's more, who won't whitewash his family after his success?

"So, which novel does Mr. Cowell like best?" After seeing Shao Yifu off, Fang Yihua, who had exchanged greetings with many people, came back.

"Well How to say that, each has its own shortcomings and its own advantages. " Adrian mused and then said so.

"It's too general, Mr. Cowell, to count." Chen Yongqi said with a smile in his half cooked Mandarin.

"Well, then..." Adrian thought for a moment, "I'll talk about the hero of some of the most popular novels in the forefront of my personal feelings. I'll state in advance that this is just a personal opinion."

After clearing his throat, he immediately began to comment: "Qiao Feng is bold and forthright. He can be a close friend, but he is hard to break. Duan Yu's infatuation is too circuitous, but Xu Zhu is pure and good, but he is dull. Guo Jing is as wise as a fool and tenacious. He is a great chivalrous man, but he sticks to etiquette. No wonder he is not happy with Huang Laoxie. Yang Guo is a genius. He is extremely intelligent. But after suffering a lot at a young age, his mind has become delicate. Only XiaoLongNu, a pure person, can get along with him. He really needs such a simple wife. Unfortunately, other girls are just the so-called Miss Yang Guo's death. This is what Ms. Lin said, not me. "

Hearing the last sentence, everyone couldn't help laughing.

"Zhang Wuji is also pure and kind, but his feelings are indecisive, which makes people feel anxious. Linghu Chong's unrestrained and arbitrary, chivalrous person, but not definitely will not be a good leader, Yue buqun does not like his frivolity is also should. It's Hu Fei. Mr. Cha once said in his postscript that he wanted to create a real husband, and he did. In the biography of the flying fox, Hu Fei is very distinctive, but he still hesitates like all the protagonists in his feelings. What a pity. " Adrian said here with a sigh, "but because of this, these characters are so impressive and they are the real people." Zhang Sanfeng in the story of relying on heaven to kill the dragon is perfect, but it lacks a bit of human nature. "

It's finally over here. Then, under the leadership of Zha Liangyong, clapping applause started. Well, anyway, this westerner already knows Chinese culture very well, and it's normal to say so much more.

"I was surprised that Mr. Cowell knew so much about my novels." There is a trace of complacency hidden between Cha Liangyong's eyebrows and Yu. Just like 286 when he lit a cigarette for him, Adrian certainly can't compare with 286, but now he is also the upstart of the whole world media group. Such a westerner has read and studied his novels, so it is inevitable that he will feel complacent."So does Mr. Cowell have a favorite character?" Liu Changle then asked.

"Well..." Adrian thought for a moment, then glanced at Fang Yihua. Before he came to Hong Kong, he was constantly selecting in his heart. At this moment, he finally made a decision.

"If you really want to choose," he said with a smile, "then choose Zhang Wuji."

"Oh? Why is that? " Not only Liu Changle, but also several people around him showed a curious look.

"It's very simple. He's the only one who enjoys the same happiness." Adrian spread his hands.

The scene was quiet for several seconds, then several people burst out laughing together, causing people from other places to turn their heads to look at this side.
