Chapter 554 Promotion of Chinese Martial Arts

In a place like the United States, building an after-sales system is very laborious and time-consuming. The former Japanese home appliance giants all spent a lot of time and money on it.
Although Changxing Group has some resources in Hong Kong, it is still far behind the Japanese home appliance giants, and its technology is not as good. Therefore, if it wants to provide after-sales service for its own products in the same way, the difficulty may increase by more than ten times, or even be impossible, or it may take more time and money.

However, if you concentrate on an industry that is promising in itself, and then develop after-sales service at the same time, it will not only serve your own products, but also serve other brands. In this way, the various after-sales costs will become lower, and it will also be beneficial to the home appliance supermarket industry.

Only in this way can we overtake others. Other brands or capitals have thought of this method, but the existing home appliance market alone cannot support a chain supermarket covering the United States, so no one invests. But as long as we wait until personal computers become popular and various portable appliances are gradually launched in ten years, the total output value of the electronics market will increase by more than ten times. In this way, the model of electronic supermarkets will naturally work there.

However, if Best Buy takes the lead and builds up the infrastructure and brand, then even if other players can participate, they may not be able to enjoy many delicacies.
On December 12, Christmas Eve, Yang Wendong naturally did not want to celebrate this holiday, so he took a plane back to Hong Kong.

At the headquarters of Hong Kong's Sing Tao Daily, editor-in-chief Lin Yousheng was drinking tea, reading a newspaper from a friend company, and slacking off while waiting for lunch;

Suddenly there was a knock on the door, and a young man in his early 20s poked his head out from the crack of the door and said, "Editor-in-Chief Lin."

"Ah Long, come in." Lin Yousheng saw his capable subordinate and smiled. After he came in, he asked, "What can I do for you?"

Aaron smiled and said, "There is one thing about Yang Wendong."

"Yang Wendong? What's going on?" Lin Yousheng immediately became excited. Anything about this top Hong Kong tycoon would be hot news.
Aaron said: "I have a friend at Kai Tak Airport. He told me that Yang Wendong went to the United States recently and then came back."

Lin Yousheng was stunned and asked, "What kind of news is this?"

"Editor-in-chief, wait for me to finish." Aaron said with a smile, "Yang Wendong chartered a plane when he left, but not when he came back. He took his own plane, a Boeing."

"Boeing plane?" Lin Yousheng asked in surprise, "That would cost tens of millions, right?"

They don’t know much about the price of airplanes, but they roughly know that every time Cathay Pacific buys a new airplane, it makes the news.

Aaron laughed and said, "Aren't tens of millions a small amount for Yang Wendong? But this is indeed the first time that a Hong Kong tycoon has purchased such a luxurious private luxury item. Even the Jardine Matheson Group has never done this before."

"Not only in Hong Kong, but in the whole of Asia, I don't think there is one yet." Lin Yousheng shook his head and said, "I will call my friends in Japan to see if there is one in Japan. If not, he will probably be the first person in Asia."

Aaron was pleasantly surprised and asked, "So this can be considered big news, right?"

"Of course it counts, but it's a bit strange that the Oriental Daily didn't break the news in advance." Lin Yousheng frowned and said.

A Long said, "Could it be because Yang Wendong is the big boss, and their people don't dare to report such things casually? After all, the most important thing for a worker is not to make mistakes. Oriental Daily's sales volume is basically the highest in Hong Kong, so there is no need to take risks?"

Lin Yousheng nodded and said, "You are right. If it were me, I would also be cautious. So, you should immediately arrange for someone to write this report. It would be best if you could take a photo of the plane.
Then we should be more careful in our writing, describing the incident in a neutral manner, or praising Yang Wendong for his reputation as a Chinese. We cannot afford to offend him. "

In Hong Kong, no one dares to offend the top wealthy people nowadays, otherwise even the newspapers cannot bear the pressure. Just by stopping the advertisements, their boss can fire them.

"I understand. Don't worry about me." Aaron said with a smile, "My friend also took photos, but the distance was far, so I could only see a rough idea. The plane stopped for a while and then flew away."

"That's enough. This kind of plane is difficult to approach." Lin Yousheng said with regret.

There may be a chance to take close-up photos in the future, but by then the news will no longer be timely.

The next day, Sing Tao Daily put an airplane on its front page, with the headline: Hong Kong Chinese tycoon goes to the United States and spends huge sums of money to buy the most luxurious private jet in Asia.

Such a title immediately attracted countless Hong Kong citizens. After opening the official content, they immediately understood: "Oh, it turned out to be Yang Wendong, no wonder."

"A plane worth tens of millions can buy hundreds of houses in Central. It's really too rich."

"A few hundred houses are nothing to them. It is said that the area of ​​their properties exceeds 10 million square feet."

"There are so many houses. If he lives in one a day, he won't be able to live in all of them in his lifetime. It would be great if he could give me one. It's a waste for rich people to have resources that they can't spend all of."

"You have tens of thousands of dollars in the bank, and you can't spend it all. Can you give me one dollar?"

"I'm not rich?"

"You would be the same if you were in that situation. The butt determines the head. It's human nature."

Many young people, after receiving the newspapers, laughed and discussed and talked nonsense;

They also admired Yang Wendong. After all, when he started his business, his experience was much worse than theirs, but he managed to reach where he is today step by step.

Anyone who sees this will be speechless. He deserves to be rich.

In the afternoon, assistant Ah Ying handed Yang Wendong the Sing Tao Daily newspaper. She needed to organize the news reports about Changxing Group and Yang Wendong himself and then give them to her boss. "Sing Tao Daily? The response is quite fast." Yang Wendong said with a smile.

Only his family and a few of his most trusted subordinates in Hong Kong knew about the plane purchase, and it was not until the plane arrived that it was truly exposed.

Ah Ying said, "Mr. Yang, the report in Sing Tao Daily is quite objective. It just describes the whole incident."

"Okay, there's nothing wrong with the content, just leave it as it is." Yang Wendong naturally wouldn't care about these;

As a celebrity, many things will be reported in the newspapers, as long as there is no malicious misinterpretation of the reports.

On the 26th, Yang Wendong brought his children to the film and television city in Tseung Kwan O;
"Wow, candied haws~"

When several children saw the extras dressed as ancient people holding candied haws in their hands, they gathered around them. Several family bodyguards were so scared that they hurriedly followed them. Only after asking did they realize that it was fake.

Yang Wendong looked at the people around him and said, "Take the children out to play. Assign bodyguards. This is also our territory. You can call for security guards at any time. However, there are still a lot of people here, so be careful."

In fact, the British Hong Kong government began to suppress criminal gangs in 68, probably because they wanted Hong Kong to become a true crown of the empire. Even if these things existed, they could not be put on the surface.
From the perspective of public security, Hong Kong is much better than before. If you are an ordinary person, there is basically no unsafe situation in crowded public areas. However, the Yang family is not an ordinary person, so they still have to be cautious. Especially in recent years, many people have come from the Monkey King side, and these people have also caused considerable social harm.

The security consultant immediately began to make arrangements, and Yang Wendong went to do his own thing. Even if he valued his family's safety, it was impossible for them to stay by his side all the time;

After arriving at a street that was somewhat republican style, Yang Wendong soon saw Li Xiaolong and others fighting in the distance. He was now being besieged by a number of Japanese warriors. These people seemed to be really skilled, and they were having a lot of fun fighting. They were very involved, and it looked very real.

Several cameras were constantly switching angles around. These cameramen were able to quickly move around with equipment weighing dozens of kilograms, which was enough to show that their skills were not bad.
After a while, "click", a director called a stop when he saw that the plot was almost done, and Li Xiaolong walked over and discussed something with him. However, from the tone of both parties, it was obvious that the director was listening to Li Xiaolong timidly, and there was someone beside him writing something in a notebook.

Li Xiaolong was also explaining seriously. Suddenly he looked up and saw Yang Wendong not far away. He immediately said to the director beside him: "Wait for me."

He then walked towards Yang Wendong. Although he was arrogant to all kinds of people, he still gave face to Yang Wendong, the capital tycoon who controlled the Hong Kong film and television industry.

"Mr. Yang." Li Xiaolong greeted as he approached.

Yang Wendong laughed and said, "Why are you still filming a movie? Hasn't Huo Yuanjia already been filmed and is scheduled to be released after the New Year?"

With Yang Wendong's early guidance and the support of strong capital, Li Xiaolong was able to shoot films much faster than in the past. He built whatever was needed, and if he was really restricted by the geographical environment, he would charter a plane to shoot overseas.
The movie "Huo Yuanjia" was completed in just a few months. Yang Wendong has also seen it and found it very good.

Li Xiaolong said: "The film is finished, but I am preparing to shoot the next film. I just don't have any inspiration, so I thought of pulling a few people over to help me.

Even if it doesn’t add any inspiration, it will allow me to do more research on the fighting, and having them film it will also make it easier for me to watch and study it later.”

Yang Wendong smiled and said, "Okay, try more to get a feel for it, maybe you can take better photos in the future."

Only Li Xiaolong has the qualification to make the entire team do this kind of thing around his needs. If anyone else wanted to do this, they would have been scolded to death long ago. So many manpower and films cost money.

Li Xiaolong asked again: "Mr. Yang, what suggestions do you have?"

"I don't know the plot of the movie, but since you've already made films about police and gangsters and the Republic of China, why not make a modern one?" Yang Wendong said with a smile, "The hottest topic in Hong Kong right now is housing. You can make a story about a small person fighting against a big real estate developer and the government, such as resisting demolition. I believe many people will resonate with it."

Li Xiaolong thought for a moment and said, "This angle is pretty good."

Yang Wendong added: "This is just a suggestion. You have the final say on how to shoot."

"Well, thank you Yang Sheng." Li Xiaolong followed.

Yang Wendong continued, "Before Huo Yuanjia is released, I will arrange for TVB to interview you. If this movie is as popular as last time or even better, then you can definitely be said to be a top star in Hong Kong, and even very famous in some Chinese communities in Asia;
But if you want to become a superstar, you can't just rely on movies, you also need a persona. My media will also do its best to support you to become a global Chinese Kung Fu superstar."

After hearing this, Li Xiaolong was overjoyed and said, "Mr. Yang, no problem. I will definitely prepare well. I have also accepted several media interviews on the character setting part. The core is to promote Chinese martial arts."

"Yes, just this point will make Chinese people all over the world have a good impression of you." Yang Wendong nodded: "In addition, even people from other countries will have a good impression of people who promote their own country's martial arts."

Many martial arts in various countries in history, such as karate, taekwondo, Muay Thai, judo and even wrestling, have gradually become famous internationally, but Chinese martial arts, which are extensive and profound, have not spread widely;
Originally, Li Xiaolong's Jeet Kune Do had great potential, but due to his sudden death, it failed. As for the following Kung Fu superstars, although they were personally famous, they never had the idea of ​​promoting martial arts, so naturally they could not succeed.

"I see. I have opened more than a dozen martial arts schools in Hong Kong." Li Xiaolong said with a smile, "This way, we can spread martial arts and find some high-quality disciples, and then bring them in to film together."

"Okay, I hope Jeet Kune Do can become the future star of our Chinese martial arts." Yang Wendong said with a smile.
