Chapter 493 Returning home in glory
After the wedding, Uncle Huo invited Wang Yuanchao to chat when he was free.

Since 64, Uncle Huo has led delegations to the capital to participate in the National Day celebrations many times, regardless of rain or shine.

In 1972, with the formal establishment of diplomatic relations between Southeast University and Britain, Uncle Huo's exchanges with the mainland became open and regular, and he led people from the business and sports circles to visit the mainland many times.

Of course, Wang Yuanchao never dared to follow, and he hadn’t been back for two years.

The timing is too sensitive.

This year, Uncle Huo is going north and invites Wang Yuanchao to join him.

Wang Yuanchao was a little nervous and said worriedly:

"Uncle Huo, you know that my family is in the capital. I haven't been back for more than ten years. I'm afraid it will affect them..."

Uncle Huo said:

“I invited you to chat just to talk to you about this.

Not to mention the advanced equipment you asked me to transport to the mainland, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is priceless. Just talking about what you have done in Hong Kong, which one is not for the rejuvenation of the flower-growing nation?

Things are different in the mainland now. Don't worry, I will accompany you. I have been there many times!

The mainland needs us now!"

With this person as a guarantor, Wang Yuanchao was of course happy. He also knew that times had changed. He immediately said:

"Then I'll listen to Uncle Huo, haha!"
-
There was no movement from Wang Yuanchao's side, but ATV quickly reached a consensus. The bulk of the cost would be borne by Sir Wang, and everyone could afford the rest.

How should I put it? Among so many companies in Hong Kong, none of the companies under Sir Wang are making losses. It’s a miracle!

Is it a miracle? To the people of Hong Kong today, it is a miracle.

But for Wang Yuanchao, who has a future perspective and huge overseas financial strength, it is really just basic operation.

Even if some businesses fail, such as the air conditioning industry after the oil crisis, the fan industry will help to make up for it. Moreover, for the air conditioning industry, research and development is endless, and a temporary hibernation is for a better take-off.

There are many industries and the tolerance rate is also high.

Therefore, before Wang Yuanchao rushed to the mainland, the acquisition of ATV was completed very efficiently.

The first thing was to back pay the employees’ wages.

Everyone immediately felt the friendliness of Sir Wang.

As the chairman of the board of directors, Wang Yuanchao did not replace the newly appointed general manager, but simply briefed all directors and executives on his positioning and planning for ATV.

We compete with ATV and TVB to build ATV's core competitiveness, one is high-quality film and television dramas, the other is distinctive educational business!
As for the educational undertaking, it is just a further deepening of the Governor's approach.

When they heard that they could broadcast a football match live, everyone's eyes popped out. Is there such a good thing?

Football matches are much more attractive than boring teaching programs!

The Hong Kong League is in full swing, and it is no exaggeration to say that it is the number one league in Asia.

If we can broadcast football matches, most of the teaching time can be filled up every day. When the league is closed, we can also buy some foreign games to broadcast! We are not stupid, we will understand it immediately.

As for whether it can be broadcast, Sir Wang has said that General Manager Li Xuelu should report to the authorities and apply for it.

That side has already been communicated in advance!
However, the teaching programs could not be used entirely to broadcast sports events, and Wang Yuanchao agreed to the governor's request.

So Wang Yuanchao decided to keep the one and a half hour teaching every day, but the format and content cannot be the camera facing the teacher and the blackboard! Too boring, isn't it?

As the saying goes, there is beauty in books!

We want to make it an interactive variety show with handsome and beautiful teachers, as well as students of training class artists and young actors! Seeing who among these guests can stand out will make the training much more interesting, right? There are teachers and students, this is what a classroom should be like!

In addition, there is a golden house in the book!
One night a week can be set aside for a big competition between TV viewers and students. They can ask for help on the spot or over the phone on various teaching knowledge, and they can also do variety shows. Wang Yuanchao has seen too much!

Golden House, Golden House, the weekly champion will receive a bonus of 1! The runner-up and third place winner will also receive a considerable reward.

More than a dozen weekly champions, runners-ups and third-place winners compete for the monthly championship, with a prize of 10 yuan!
So, the annual championship is for 12 months, and the prize money is 100 million!

Knowledge is wealth, it’s not just a simple statement!

There are so many things to compete in and learn!
Of course, the plans for subsequent variety shows are still kept confidential for the time being. If they are leaked, it would be like making wedding clothes for others.

Having talked about teaching programs, other TV programs can be exquisite but not at all costs.

The previous "July Offensive" which was a ridiculous way of spending money to promote publicity would definitely not be allowed.

After the arrangements were made, ATV started to get busy internally, some applying, some purchasing equipment, and some adjusting the organizational structure.

Fortunately, Sir Wang himself is the president of the Hong Kong Football Association, and the two parties hit it off for the broadcasting of football matches.

The two parties agreed that no broadcasting fees would be charged in the first year, but starting from the second year, ATV would need to pay the broadcasting fees to the Football Association. The specific amount would be negotiated at that time. Wang Yuanchao felt that it would be about 30% of the advertising fees during the broadcast of the game, which was more appropriate.

This is a relatively acceptable amount for both football and television stations.

Each club can also share a share of the broadcasting fees to supplement its business in addition to tickets, autumn clothing, etc. Although there is a football lottery, this income has nothing to do with the clubs. The bulk of it comes from lottery prizes, followed by taxes paid by the authorities, and finally the operating expenses of the Football Association, which is used to support the expenses of the Hong Kong United team, the Football Association, the football school, as well as the organization of the league and the prize money of the competition.

If it works well, the revenue of each team will be higher, and the pockets of the club and the players will be fatter. When watching TV, people still like to watch stars and good games.

Even Football Player of the Year can do it!
It is also because of the emergence of football lottery that the Jockey Club’s charitable donations of horse ticket sales prize money were stopped.

The amount of this part of the bonus was getting higher and higher and it was very hot to handle, but Wang Yuanchao still donated the funds, with the main idea being to take from the people, use it for the people, and keep the credit for himself.

Not only have numerous scholarships and grants been established, but there are also the Hong Kong Science Award and the Hong Kong Technology Award, which are similar to the Nobel Prize (as long as a company has an office in Hong Kong and an individual has a record of studying or renting in Hong Kong, they can participate), the Hong Kong Journalism Award, which is similar to the Pulitzer Prize (for news across Asia), Olympic medals and ranking awards, and so on.

Hong Kong football has made it to the quarterfinals of the World Cup, but has yet to win an Olympic medal. Let’s give Uncle Huo a hand.

The Jockey Club intends to adjust its business and revenue structure, and may then take back this part of the reputation. However, Wang Yuanchao does not care. Even if the horse ticket sales company is taken over by the Jockey Club, it cannot change the fact that those employees are his people.

After arranging many matters, Wang Yuanchao followed Uncle Huo and his party, crossed the Luohu Port, and took a luxurious train north to Guangzhou.

At Yangcheng Airport, they boarded the plane that was waiting there.

This was the first time in all these years that Wang Yuanchao had taken a flight in the mainland, and he was doing it openly without a letter of introduction.

Among the group of Hong Kong tycoons, he was the youngest and most handsome, which made the beautiful stewardess unable to help but look at him several more times.

People are very sensitive to eye contact. Although Wang Yuanchao turned his head away, the flight attendant had naturally turned her gaze away.

The flight attendants only thought that this young man was a scion of some wealthy family. They never imagined that he was the richest person in the group. Even the others combined could not compare to him. Yes, he was that wealthy.

Uncle Huo and Wang Yuanchao's seats were next to each other, and no one thought there was anything wrong with Sir Wang sitting there.

……

Miao Cui was sewing shoe soles in the corridor while her grandchildren were playing in the yard. She wanted to remind them not to tear down the earthquake-proof shed built under the corridor.

"Sister Miao, is Sister Miao at home?"

There was a sound of footsteps outside the yard, and the children sensitively ran towards their grandmother.

Miao Cui put down the work in her hands and quickly stood up to greet them. Among the group of people who came, she only knew Director Ma from the street and Secretary Zhao from the community.

Even if she didn't have good eyesight, she could tell that Director Ma and Secretary Zhao were just small soldiers among the group, and she immediately said a little embarrassedly:

"Leaders……"

The man in a Zhongshan suit in front of him smiled and stretched out his hand, saying:
"Comrades, we are all comrades! I am the director of the National Tourism Administration, my last name is Lu! I wonder if it is convenient for us to come in and talk!"

Miao Cui stretched out her hand weakly, shook hands with Director Lu, and nodded quickly.

As soon as the adults moved, the children retreated back into the room.

Not only them, but also the neighbors in the yard, behind the windows and behind the walls, were all peeking in to inquire. In this day and age, having such a large number of people coming was a bit scary.

Didn’t you see that Miao Cui is usually so smart, but now she can’t even speak clearly?
"Leader, please sit down!" Miao Cui pulled out a few benches and greeted them.

"Comrade Miao Cui, you sit down too!" Director Lu must have asked Miao Cui to sit down first, and then sat down opposite Miao Cui.

After thinking for a while, he said:
"Comrade Miao Cui, I heard that you have a little son named Wang Yuanchao——"

Before Director Lu finished speaking, Miao Cui started to tremble, and her eyes instantly turned red! Was this child arrested? ? ?

Miao Cui was so anxious that she tried to open her mouth several times, but she didn't have the strength to do so. She was about to raise her hand to grab Director Lu and beg for mercy.

When Director Lu saw this situation, he quickly stood up and supported Miao Cui, saying anxiously:

"Oh, sis, don't be excited!"

Not even calling him comrade!
"There is good news, good news!"

Miao Cui finally came to her senses. She was really anxious just now. Thinking about the clever third brother, he hadn't been back for more than two years. That guy would definitely not put himself in danger!
This troublesome third brother!

Her nose felt sore and she couldn't control her tears anymore.

Director Lu glared at Director Ma next to him. Director Ma quickly took out a handkerchief and came up to help wipe his tears, saying:
"Sister Miao, good things, good things, look at you..."

Director Lu didn't dare to hide it anymore. Did he need to verify it? As soon as he said the name, the elder sister burst into tears. He must be his biological son!

Directly:
"This time, the Hong Kong delegation returned to visit China, and there was a special representative. It turned out to be your son. We are here to tell you this good news!"

Miao Cui finally let go of her worries and burst into tears.

Director Ma patted Miao Cui on the back and said:

"Back then they said he fell into the river, but who would have thought that the comrades who were aiding Korea had great luck and were rescued by a large ship from the Hong Kong River!"

Director Lu said:

"Yes, he settled down there, got married and had children, and created a great career! Now, he is thinking of coming back to invest in the motherland and serve his homeland!"
