   Chapter 258 Chairman Qiu

after get off work

   Yang Chen and Xue Yufei took the car home together, and when they arrived at the door of the house, the two saw a strange car parked at the door, and they knew that there was another guest at the house.

   During this time, since Yang Chen's worth was exposed, people have come to visit Xue's house one after another.

   For this, Yang Chen and Xue Yufei are not surprised either, anyway, most of the people who come here are familiar with Father Xue.

   Unfamiliar people, Father Xue would not let them enter the gate of Xue's house.

   As soon as he entered the door, Yang Chen saw Father Xue, who usually came back very late during this time, and was drinking tea with people chatting and laughing.

   This made him curious for a while.

   "Achen, Yu Fei, you are back."

   Hearing the movement, Father Xue looked up at the door, saw Yang Chen and Xue Yufei coming back, and waved to them.

   "Uncle, Dad"

   Father Xue nodded with a smile, and then introduced to Yang Chen and Xue Yufei: "Come on, let me introduce you to both of you, this is Chairman Qiu of Far East Group."

   "Press?" Hearing this, Yang Chen was obviously taken aback.

  Although he has never met Qiu Degen, but the name of the other party, when he read Xiangjiang Wen in his previous life, those novel authors introduced this big man a lot.

   Qiu Daheng, who was born in 1924, was born in the family of a small trader. Due to his poverty, he dropped out of junior high school after only a few months of study.

   At only fifteen years old, Qiu Daheng, who had not read for a few days, went to the cinema to work as a laborer. After several years, he accumulated a sum of money and rented a cinema.

   In 1950, Qiu Daheng brought his wife, who had been pregnant for several months, to Hong Kong. With his passion and understanding of movies, and at that time, Hong Kong was at the beginning of its development.

   Qiu Daheng, who first arrived in Hong Kong, went back to his old business and crashed into the film industry again.

  Because of the limited initial capital, he could only turn his attention to the countryside. At that time, except for the prosperous center of Xiangjiang Island, other places farther away were still villages.

  Rural residents have nothing to do after finishing their work every day, so they can only visit, chat, and sleep.

  Movie was still very new at that time, and few people were willing to pay to go to the cinema to see a movie.

  Fortunately, the rent of old movies was cheap at that time, so Daheng Qiu opened the curtain in the countryside, attracting the villagers who went home every day to have nothing to do.

  Compared with cinemas in the city center, country cinemas usually have a very high attendance rate.

   Ten years before and after, Qiu Daheng finally accumulated his first pot of gold in Hong Kong by relying on the expanding country cinema in his hands.

  The most difficult thing to earn in life is the first pot of gold, especially for self-made people. Many people have been busy for half their lives before they can accumulate this first pot of gold.

   Under normal circumstances, most of the people who earn the first pot of gold will choose to continue to live by and continue to live with the existing petty bourgeoisie.

   But Qiu Daheng did not. After gaining a firm foothold in the countryside, Qiu Daheng set his sights on the urban area and began to consider the urban area to develop his own business.

   But because the funds are not very abundant, it is not enough to simply rely on the first pot of gold in hand to make a big splash in Hong Kong, which is full of British capital.

   As a result, the Far East Bank came into being. At that time, most of the banks and banks in Xiangjiang focused on the rich and middle class in the city, and did not take into account the rural residents at all.

  Qiu Daheng has a precise eye on the development prospects of the countryside, and he specialises in the deposit and loan business in the countryside.

   In order to concentrate on the operation of the Far East Bank, Qiu Daheng temporarily put aside the idea of ​​expanding the cinema chain and began to try his best to build the Far East Bank.

  With decades of hard work, Daheng Qiu started from scratch and eventually established the huge Far East Group.

   To a certain extent, at this stage, this boss is not at all inferior to the charter king and the richest man Li.

   Even because the other party holds the Far East Bank, a financial institution, its influence is far beyond that of ordinary rich people.

   "Hello, Chairman Qiu"

   In his mind, after recalling the first half of his life, Yang Chen gave him a junior salute.

Seeing Yang Chen salute him as a younger generation, Qiu Degen nodded secretly, got up and patted Yang Chen's shoulder, and said with a smile, "You don't need to be so disrespectful, nephew, what Chairman Qiu, just call me Uncle Qiu. ."

   "Uncle Qiu" Seeing Qiu Degen say this, Yang Chen was not polite, and directly changed his voice and called Uncle Qiu.

   Seeing that Yang Chen was so refreshing and straightforward, without being sloppy at all, Qiu Degen was slightly taken aback, and then he pulled Yang Chen to sit beside him.

   As for Yang Chen, before coming to Xue's house, Daheng Qiu had a detailed understanding of it.

   Originally thought that the other party had achieved achievements far beyond the reach of ordinary people at a young age, and such a person should be a little arrogant at his age.

   Never thought that the other party could still be polite and restrained, and there was no arrogance in his expression or even his words.

   For a while, Daheng Qiu couldn't help thinking of his sons. Although Daheng Qiu was not bad, Daheng Qiu couldn't help but sighed in his heart.

   Actually, Daheng Qiu came to Xue's house today, not to talk to Father Xue, but to come here specifically for Yang Chen.

   In the early years, Qiu Daheng gave up the film industry for his career and devoted his energy to the Far East Group.

  Now, with the development of Far East Group getting better and better, Qiu Daheng has turned his energy to the entertainment industry.

  In 1979, Qiu Daheng invested tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars to build a historical and cultural amusement park covering an area of ​​tens of thousands of square feet - "Song City".

  The buildings in the city are all imitating the buildings of the Song Dynasty, shops, banks, theaters, gardens, etc. The residents and performers in the city are all dressed in ancient costumes.

   When modern people walk into the Song City, it is like returning to the ancient society. It attracted countless tourists for a while and brought huge profits to the Far East Group.

   As the years go by, the Far East Group develops better and better, and Qiu Daheng wants to do something he likes more and more.

  The sons have grown up and can share a lot of things, which makes him a lot easier than before.

   At this time, he remembered the days when he first came to Hong Kong and worked as a laborer in a movie theater for the first time.

   Nowadays, in the Hong Kong film industry, there are Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest and the newly emerging Golden Princess Cinema.

  Three-legged efforts have already carved up the entire Xiangjiang film market. Even if he has money, it is difficult for him to intervene.

  So, Daheng Qiu turned his idea to the TV industry.

   In the previous life, Tycoon Qiu obtained the equity of Li's TV station from the Australian consortium, and was able to enter the media industry smoothly, which is also a dream for him.

   However, because Yang Chen stabbed the bar horizontally, Qiu Daheng lost this opportunity.

   However, Daheng Qiu, who has made up his mind and wants to fulfill his youthful dream, will obviously not give up so easily.
