Chapter 180 Longteng Entertainment Company
He Yukai obtained the money to invest in Wharf Holdings, a total of more than 32 million. It turns out that the stock market is the most profitable, provided that you can predict the future.

He Yukai believes that the stock market is for rich people to play with. They have huge capital flows and can decide the rise and fall of a stock by just taking a fancy to it. As for retail investors, it depends on luck.

If you buy when the market maker is bullish, you can make money. Otherwise, if you lose money, you will question your life. The stock market is risky. Remember not to rush in. When you don't have absolute strength, it is better to keep a low profile and lock in the profits. If you cannot overcome greed, you may lose everything and have to start from scratch. This was the bitter lesson He Yukai learned in his previous life.

Now we have to wait for news from Lou Zhenhua. He is unfamiliar with the place and has language barriers. It will be difficult for him to achieve results if he goes out on his own. Although he has tried his best to learn, He Yukai's language talent is terrible.

He Yushui can already have a halting conversation with the children, and even Cai Wenqing can say a few words from time to time. Only He Yukai is still working hard.

The most unexpected thing was that the one who made the most progress was He Yuzhu. He Yuzhu went home every day to practice talking with the Lou family's servants. He Yukai had never seen He Yuzhu so serious before. After getting to know him, he found out that when He Yuzhu was communicating about cooking skills with the kitchen in Lou's restaurant, he could only rely on Lou's driver to translate because of the language barrier.

This is where the problem arises. The driver is not a cook, and He Yuzhu verified the translated content and found it to be far from the original meaning. He did not doubt the cooking skills, but only after Lou Xiao'e pointed it out did he understand that the content had lost its original meaning after being relayed by others.

The translator will convey the content to you based on her understanding, and the information you receive is very different from what the chef originally wanted to say, so this result occurs.

He Yuzhu doesn't care about anything else and is the type who just lives for the day. His only love is cooking. In order to understand the gap between Hong Kong cuisine and Cantonese cuisine, He Yukai decides to solve the language problem first.

It has to be said that hobbies can bring great enthusiasm for learning. He Yuzhu's Cantonese ability has improved rapidly, perhaps because He Yuzhu has a simple mind.

He doesn't need to think so much and can focus on cooking, but He Yukai is different. His thoughts can't stop and he can't concentrate on one thing at all.

There are quite a lot of gangsters in Hong Kong Island now, and these gangsters can absolutely suppress those who have no background.

But they are nothing to those people in Deep Water Bay. These people living in Deep Water Bay are the major taxpayers of Hong Kong Island. If such people are threatened by hooligans, what will happen? It will definitely cause great turmoil to the overall economy of Hong Kong Island.

The Governor of Hong Kong would never allow such a thing to exist. Economic prosperity is directly linked to political performance. In the eyes of wealthy businessmen and powerful families, those so-called social organizations are not allowed to be on the table. Perhaps only the leaders of the social organizations are qualified to have a dialogue.

No matter how powerful they are, they have to consider whether their strength can confront the Governor of Hong Kong. The so-called societies' business scope includes bars and other places. Of course, there are also some small-time gangsters who rely on collecting so-called protection fees to make a living.

He Yukai does not want to get involved with these Hong Kong society organizations as the relationships behind them are even more complicated. He just wants to be an honest businessman.

"Mr. He, the meal is ready. The master wants you to go to the restaurant for dinner."

He Yukai was torn apart his future plans in the room when the servant of the Lou family came over and invited him to the restaurant for dinner.

He Yukai couldn't help but sigh, this is the market economy, the meals are prepared by the chef, the servants bring them to the table, and you are invited to eat.

You just need to spend a lot of your time on generating income, and don't waste time on the trivialities of life.

But He Yukai thinks that generating income is a must, and the trivialities of life cannot all be handed over to others, otherwise they will become money-making machines and lose the joy of life. What good will it do to make more money then?

Of course, this matter is a matter of opinion. At least you have to be rich to be qualified to consider it. In the eyes of rich people, the trivialities of life are the joy of life. In the eyes of poor people, the trivialities of life are just a mess. Making money is the kingly way.

"Xiao Kai, let's eat first. After dinner, I will tell you the details.

Yu Shui has already contacted Zhao Wen and Zhao Ge’s schools, so they can enroll directly at the start of the semester. This semester is not possible because school has already started.”

Lou Zhenhua greeted He Yukai and briefly explained the situation.

He Yukai arrived at the restaurant and saw that Lou's mother and Cai Wenqing were already seated and waiting for them.

"Xiao Kai, try the food in Hong Kong Island and see how it differs from that in Beijing. Zhuzi has already tasted it these past few days. Let me see how much difference there is between you brothers in your taste for food."

When Lou's mother saw He Yukai, she greeted him enthusiastically. As cooking is a family tradition, Lou's mother's appreciation of food is no worse than He Yuzhu's. She used to cook often to show off her cooking skills, but now her cooking skills are much worse.

It may be because of years of pampered life that my hands-on ability has decreased a lot and I probably have no motivation to do it. Many people cook to eat, and very few do it as a hobby, unless the chef does it for both survival and hobby.

"Auntie Lou, you're too polite. I'm far inferior to Zhuzi. Judging from the color, I think my level is quite high."

He Yukai said a few polite words to Lou's mother. He had never been interested in cooking since he was a child. Although he knew a lot from what he saw and heard, he could not compare with them after all.

He Yukai prefers heavy flavors in his food, and the food here is definitely light, so he doesn't like the eating habits here.

After all, they are guests. Even if they don't like the food, they have to eat well and say a few words of praise. This is not a matter of dishonesty, but emotional intelligence.

"To be honest, Aunt Lou, the taste here is a bit light. I like stronger flavors, but the feeling is still very good. As for tasting, I really can't appreciate it. Although it is a family cooking skill, I have never been interested in it since I was a child, so I may not be able to describe it."

Seeing that Lou's mother was looking at him with interest, He Yukai could only tell the truth. He really didn't know how to appreciate this kind of dishes. He couldn't give a clear answer even if he tried, and it would make him look like he was just trying to show off.

I originally wanted to just give her a few compliments and be done with it, but if I fail to compliment her on the point, then it would be difficult to back down. I should just tell her that she doesn't know how to appreciate food, once and for all.

"Well, I heard from Zhuzi that the family's cooking skills were only inherited by Zhuzi. You and Yushui didn't inherit much. It's not bad, at least the inheritance has not been broken."

Lou's mother didn't force her, because cooking requires talent.

Lou's mother also has a copy of the cooking experience of Tan's cuisine. This is their family heirloom and has been passed on to He Yuzhu. Since her own children don't like it, she can only pass it on to her son-in-law to pass on the cooking skills of Tan's cuisine intact.

Although the essence of Tan's cuisine cannot be passed on to outsiders, as this is the ancestral precept, the times are developing too fast and there is no need to cherish it. A son-in-law is half a son, and as long as the inheritance of Tan's cuisine is not interrupted, everything is worth it.

In fact, the so-called ancestral teachings are the basic foundation left by ancestors for future generations - to have enough food to eat.

The Tan family is a family of scholars. Their ancestors should not have been keen on cooking, but why did they leave such an ancestral motto? Wealth does not last for more than three generations. The ancestors of the Tan family had a far-sighted vision.
Cai Wenqing and his friends discussed where to go for fun. Since they had come here with great difficulty, they must take a good look at the modern metropolis.

They couldn't help with He Yukai's affairs, so why not just have fun? They were here for vacation, but He Yukai was the only one who had a purpose.

Looking at his wife and children walking out of the house, He Yukai smiled and shook his head. However, He Yushui was kept by He Yukai. From now on, He Yushui could no longer play and had to follow He Yukai to study.

Although He Yukai didn't know much, after all, he had come from the information explosion of later generations, so his insights and ideas were much more advanced, and he could always grasp the key points, which were the most important to He Yushui.

He Yukai was clear about the overall framework of the entertainment company. It was nothing more than a few departments, and he was also planning to hire a professional manager. He didn't need the details, just the overall direction. Of course, his greatest confidence still came from the successful scripts and songs of his previous life. Once he had gained a firm foothold, more talents would naturally gather there.

All things are difficult at the beginning, but as long as you make a good start, everything will be fine.

The entertainment company has another important thing to deal with, which is security. He doesn't want his artists to be threatened, especially by those gangsters with no bottom line.

He Yukai’s real idea is to set up a security company, which will be of great help to his later plans. Although the timing is not yet perfect, there is still room for maneuver.

Thinking about the fact that people still escape to Hong Kong from time to time, He Yukai wanted to slap himself. How could he forget such an important thing? There are a large number of retired soldiers in Shenzhou, and it would be easy to recruit them.

It seems that I have to start preparing after I go back. I can’t wait until later. Before the security company is established, I still have to use the Lou family for protection.

He Yukai is most disgusted by the dirty things in the entertainment industry. He Yukai does not believe that those female artists would allow themselves to degenerate. He can only say that they have to compromise due to many irreversible factors.

He Yukai’s idea is that in the future, his artists will never be allowed to be threatened into doing something unless they themselves are willing.

Of course, if the artist himself is willing, He Yukai can’t do anything about it.

He can only guarantee that no one will dare to force his artists in the future, but such confidence requires strong strength to support it. He Yukai knows who will become famous, and there is no reason why he cannot succeed standing on the shoulders of giants. Even if He Yukai himself cannot compose music, it is not a problem to simply hum it, and then find professionals to compose the music.

This was the confidence that enabled He Yukai to enter the entertainment industry in the early days. His foresight gave He Yukai full confidence. Was he still afraid that he would not be able to develop?

When the funds have accumulated to a certain level, He Yukai will also build his own cinema chain. Without his own cinema chain, even if he makes a good movie, he may be stuck.

Of course, it is too early to consider these things now, but it is only a matter of time before he comes to his senses.

Hong Kong's economy is booming now. In 75, the penetration rate of televisions had reached 95%. The Miss Hong Kong beauty pageant held by Shaw Brothers and others has given it even more power. Under such circumstances, it is very difficult to carve out a niche. You can only plan and sign up unknown movie stars or singers first, and find another way out.

In Hong Kong, a city full of contenders, it is impossible to make a breakthrough if you intervene in the TV drama and movie market now. To put it bluntly, you don't have enough strength.

It’s different for the agency. He Yukai doesn’t lack songs, he just lacks people to sing them.

It is still very possible to set up an agency to sign singers and stand out from the inward-looking television industry.

This operation will not conflict with the leading film and television companies, and you can develop yourself.

He Yukai was also a beneficiary of Shaw Brothers in his later life. How should I put it? There should be few people in later life who have not received their kindness. The teaching buildings or libraries donated by Shaw Brothers accompanied many people's study career.

Try to be cooperative with Shaw Brothers people. No matter what, they have Chinese hearts. Let’s not discuss the purpose of charity for now. At least they have benefited the majority of people, right?
“Yushui, I plan to set up Longteng Entertainment Company, adopt the agent model, and sign singers to carve out a path in this prosperous Hong Kong Island. Big brother hopes that you will study hard and familiarize yourself with the business as soon as possible.

There will be other tasks for you at that time. Big Brother’s future growth will be up to you. We don’t have much time, so you will need to shoulder this responsibility in the future.”

He Yukai looked at He Yushui opposite him and said solemnly that he hoped He Yushui could understand the importance of this company, as it was the starting point of He Yukai's career.

"Brother, I don't know anything about this entertainment company. I'm afraid I won't be able to do it well."

He Yushui looked at her elder brother with some worry. She really had no experience in this field before. If she didn't do it well, it would be bad if it delayed her elder brother's important matters.

Different trades mean different mountains. It doesn't matter if you have money and determination. The competition between outsiders and insiders made He Yushui panic, mainly because he was afraid of delaying his elder brother's plan.

“Just take care of your belongings. I’ll give you some things when the time comes, and you just put them away.

I will write down in detail how to use these things, and you can release one or two of them from time to time. As for the other matters, I will arrange professional managers to manage them.

Big brother hopes that you can study hard and grow up quickly after entering Hong Kong Island University. This place is too far away, and I will definitely not be able to take care of it after I go back. I am still worried without my family watching over you."

He Yukai has his own plans for the company, but he still has to put some pressure on Yu Shui. In case He Yu Shui gets lost in the world of feasting and drinking, he will lose a helper.

"Brother, don't worry, I will study hard. If it's just about monitoring the finances, it shouldn't be a big problem.

If it doesn’t work, I will just use the steel mill method to monitor it from the beginning, which I am familiar with.”

After hearing what her elder brother said, He Yushui felt much more relieved. If it was just about monitoring the finances, then there would be no problem. She had been working in finance for almost ten years and she was familiar with all the intricacies involved.

Although the financial habits may be different from those in Hong Kong Island, there are not many people at the beginning of the business, so there will not be any big problems in using the financial habits there. After entering school, she will learn the financial laws and regulations here as soon as possible and get into the state as soon as possible.

"It's good that you understand. These few days, just follow me and watch and learn more. Don't play with your sister-in-law and the others.

First, implement this matter. The entertainment company needs to expand its influence. You should be able to feel it in Hong Kong Island during this period. Many methods can be used in the future. Pay attention to everything and you will learn something. The main thing is that you should be attentive.

He Yukai had no choice. Finance and personnel were the key points, and these two things must be in the hands of trusted people. Only in this way could the company be controllable.

The finances are in one's own hands, and he will be informed of every expenditure made by the professional manager in a timely manner. Personnel are even more important, and key positions must be filled with people you can trust. With these two things in hand, it will not be so easy for others to plot against you.

"Understood, big brother."

He Yushui knew that the layout of the entertainment company was very important to his eldest brother, otherwise his eldest brother would not have reminded him so seriously and repeatedly.

"I will tell you the plan by telegram or phone at that time, and you just need to execute it according to my instructions."

If He Yukai hadn't had anyone he trusted, he would have planned to hoard land. Although it has been divided up now, there are still many virgin lands to be developed in the suburbs of Hong Kong Island.

He Yushui, a woman, would definitely not be able to hoard land. That would be competing with deep-water crocodiles for food, and He Yushui definitely does not have the ability to fight them.

The port city is not so safe nowadays. Gunfights are common. If an unruly person comes out, Rainwater may not be able to deal with it.

He Yukai felt helpless when he saw business opportunities everywhere. However, he was short of capital and manpower, so he could only feel heartbroken and stop distracting himself.

"Xiao Kai, I think you should just register a company. I've made some inquiries and found that most of the entertainment and media companies are either very profitable or don't want to sell.

Or they are heavily in debt. If you acquire this company, you will have to assume their debts. There are many debts and lawsuits, and there is no need for you to get involved.

Yu Shui is going to study here, so I have already applied for an ID card here. Just register under Yu Shui's name. You don't have to worry about the channels for now since you are not developing media.

Signing a contract with a singer and letting him directly participate in the competition is the most cost-effective. There are still many ways to make a singer famous."

After understanding the current situation of the entertainment industry, Lou Zhenhua began to persuade He Yukai. He knew that He Yukai wanted to enter the entertainment industry through the agency's ideas, and then he could participate in more competitions.

TV stations hold various competitions every year to increase ratings. As long as the singers have good works, they can sign up to participate. As long as they become famous, they can make profits.

If you want to run a media company, it is better to make an acquisition, even if it is for the channels. Now the media channels have been divided up, and new companies may be targeted by their peers. After all, the pie is only so big, and they don't want newcomers to come in and share the pie.

In fact, the concept of an agency does not exist now, but there are agents. Especially in the entertainment industry, agency companies have not yet appeared. The reason why Lou Zhenhua knew about it was that He Yukai explained the concept of an agency in detail.

After listening to He Yukai's explanation, Lou Zhenhua thought that this was a very good idea. Nowadays, entertainment companies are trying to increase their exposure, and brokerage companies are focusing on packaging singers and actors. The prospects should be good.

What singers need is exposure. For a place like Hong Kong Island, as long as you have money, you can advertise in various magazines. It is quick and convenient.

After listening to Lou Zhenhua's suggestion, He Yukai felt that it was feasible. With Lou Zhenhua's help, it was not difficult to register a company. He just needed to find a lawyer to do it. At the same time, He Yukai also wanted to register an offshore company so that he could control all his industries in the future. It was just right to do it all at once to save trouble.

Of course, you must have a good lawyer to register a company. In fact, you can also use the Lou family’s lawyer, but He Yukai still has some concerns in his heart.

These are also considered business secrets. After all, Lou Xiao'e has a brother. If Lou Xiao'e was an only child, it would be fine. In the future, Lou Xiao'e will be the first heir to the Lou family's property. It doesn't matter if Lou Zhenhua knows many secrets of hers. It's better to stay away from her now.

The business world is like a battlefield. If the ruler is not discreet, he will lose his ministers. If the ministers are not discreet, they will lose their lives. If a few things are not discreet, they will suffer harm.

Although Lou Zhenhua is trying his best to help him now, that is because there is no conflict of interest between the two families. For businessmen, especially big businessmen, maximizing profits is their goal.

Lou Zhenhua has been in the business world for decades and must be an old fox. It is better not to make your company transparent in front of Lou Zhenhua.

Harmfulness is not allowed, and defensiveness is indispensable.
