For Shen Chong, which is not short of money, it is really no difference between skyscrapers or Guangzhou. One is the special economic zone that the whole country is concerned about, and the other is the famous southern city with a long history. The influence is almost the same. The only difference is that it is to recover the cost two years earlier or two years later. However, for the mainland film industry, whether the pilot project of screening reform has Guangzhou, the effect is in the sky and the earth. Guangzhou has a population of more than 5 million, and Shenzhen City has added all farmers, which is only 300,000. In 19RU, few farmers were willing to spend money to watch movies. They only carried out pilot projects in Shenzhen. After a year, a box office of more than 100,000 yuan, and then a split account is not enough to put a gap in the film studio.

It’s the same wherever you build it, why not use it? Therefore, Chen Chong decided to use the strategy of "driven tigers and swallowing wolfs" in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and use the pie of skyscrapers to encourage Guangzhou local officials to take the initiative to join the pilot reform of film screening. You should know that in Guangzhou City at this time, in addition to the provincial party secretary, Secretary Yang of the municipal party committee was also a super big boss, and his secretary Sun Tiezhong also attended the practice banquet that night.

Of course, with Secretary Yang's resume, capital and vision, whether a skyscraper is built in Guangzhou is not very important. Building in Guangzhou is icing on the cake. It is not harmful to not be in Guangzhou. But for the officials below, the significance is completely different. A tallest building in China or even Asia represents dazzling political achievements and massive interests. It must be strived for. As the secretary of the Guangzhou Municipal Party Committee, he cannot ignore the opinions of his subordinates. It is almost certain that the boss of this level asks the Film Bureau for policies.

Of course, treating people as guns cannot be done too clearly, otherwise the effect will not be good, and it will easily offend people. Therefore, Shen Chong did not mention the pilot reform of film distribution and screening at the dinner. He just kept complaining, saying that Guangzhou has good supporting facilities, a large number of labor population, a mature market, is built quickly, and is easy to recover costs. At the same time, he said that Shenzhen is a special zone, with policy advantages, rapid development, and is close to Hong Kong, with convenient communication, in short, it is difficult to make up his mind...

The next day was Children's Day. Early in the morning, Chen Chong and Li Kaiyuan went to Guangzhou Youth Palace together, where they donated 1 million sets of Rubik's Cubes to the Guangzhou Municipal Education Bureau in the name of the Sino-Hong Kong joint venture Kaiyuan Toy Factory for free to distribute them to primary and secondary school students across the city. As expected, not only were there more officials attending the donation ceremony than those scheduled, but also had a much higher level.

After the donation ceremony, Chen Chong refused to keep the gods from all walks of life, got into the car, and left in the dust.

"A Chong." Li Kaiyuan turned around, looked at the crowd at the entrance of the Young People's Palace through the rear car window, and asked, "Will they understand if you don't mention a word about the movie?"

"Officials are all talented people." Chen Chong raised three fingers and said, "I have a film company, I have a good relationship with mainland filmmakers. I am a rich man who likes to spend a lot of money on movies. Such an obvious reminder, if they still can't figure out the key points, it's better to go home and grow sweet potatoes."

"There are so many ways." Li Kaiyuan curled his lips and said, "But don't be too happy too early, this may not be done."

"Just do your best, just leave your will and work hard. And even if the small conspiracy is not realized, I have gained a lot in my trip to Guangzhou." Chen Chong said with a satisfied smile: "If you are willing to plant flowers, you will not grow, if you are unintentionally plant willows and willows, you will accomplish a major event inadvertently."

"What's the big deal?"

"Do you still remember? The day before yesterday, I invested in a company in Guangzhou, was the Pacific Audio and Video Company." Chen Chong said with a smile: "The pie fell from the sky and hit me in the head."

"Oh, that's just a tape factory." Li Kaiyuan said in confusion: "There are so many small factories like this in Hong Kong, and there are not ten or eight. Is it that important?"

"It's different." Chen Chong grabbed her hand and said with a little emotion: "My biggest wish is to integrate cultural and entertainment resources from both sides of the Taiwan Strait and the three regions. Music is part of it. In Hong Kong, I have Polygold, in Taiwan, I have Rolling Stones and UFOs, but there is nothing in the mainland. This Pacific Audio and Video Company just filled the gap, gave me a springboard to enter the mainland, completed the entire puzzle, so I completed a big event."

"Then congratulations." Li Kaiyuan held his hand back and said with a smile: "It's been a long time since I saw you so happy."

Since time traveling, Chen Chong has always focused on movies and has not attached much importance to pop music. His music companies are all in a stocking state. Hong Kong and Taiwan are like this. Naturally, mainland music companies are not very concerned about it. However, not being concerned does not mean that the opportunity will let it slip away when it comes. During his stay in Guangzhou, he accidentally heard that the Pacific Audio and Video Company, which is under the Guangzhou Radio and Television Bureau, is about to be finished.

This news surprised him greatly. Pacific Audio and Video Company is a name that must be mentioned in the history of mainland China's mainland pop music. It is the first factory to produce cassette tapes in the mainland, and it is said to ignite the spark of the mainland pop music market. Zhu Fengbo, Li Guyi, Jiang Dawei, Yu Junjian and others' first music tapes were all released by it. And according to past lives, the sales volume of the tapes issued by this company are almost over one million, and the profits are tens of millions each year, which is more profitable than many large state-owned enterprises. How could it be ruined?

After careful investigation, Chen Chong couldn't help but sigh that it was better to come early than to come by. At this time, Pacific Audio and Video Company was in a state of disagreement and was about to finish the game in one breath.

In 1978, there was a company called Baili Records in Hong Kong. It asked the Guangzhou Radio and Television Bureau to cooperate with it. In 1979, it founded Pacific Audio and Video Company in 1979. Baili Records borrowed HK$4 million and introduced a stereo cassette production line with a sound channel. Pacific was responsible for recording records and producing tapes, and repaying Baili's loans and interest with product income.

Bailey Records felt that the living standards in the mainland were too low, with a monthly income of only about 40 yuan. A box of tapes worth six or seven yuan would definitely not be sold, so it brought all the tapes to Hong Kong and prepared to be sold overseas. As a result, it can be imagined that the mainland songs produced by Pacific were no longer interested in overseas. In 1979, 900,000 cassettes were produced, only one-tenth of them were sold. Both parties suffered huge losses and were terrible. In order not to destroy the overall situation of reform and opening up in full swing, the Guangzhou Radio and Television Bureau borrowed 100,000 yuan to Pacific Audio and Video Company, which saved its life and barely maintained its operation.

If there was no sunk, Pacific Audio and Video Company was at the end of its reach, sending all its employees out, each with a recorder, and selling them all across the country. In 19RU, the mainland was full of mono vinyl records and stereo cassettes, which were small, fashionable and nice, causing a sensation immediately, and soon sold out the inventory, making a big profit.

But Chen Chong was lucky. He happened to come to Guangzhou at this time and happened to hear this "failed case of foreign cooperation". As an outstanding patriotic businessman, how could he sit idly by and watch the failure of cooperation and smear the reform and opening up? Of course, he had to take action with righteousness and help others...
