The Most Powerful Tycoon Reborn In Xiangjiang Chapter 637

"boss!"

  Xu Yi led the people from Xiangjiang Jiaku to Los Angeles.

  For this meeting of the Jiaku Department, Chu Huan specially asked David Maxwell to book the five-star hotel Shell Hotel next to Santa Monica Beach in Los Angeles.

  After the people from North America's armor warehouse took them to the Shell Hotel, Xu Yi drove to Chu Huan's manor by himself.

   "How is it? Is the journey going well?"

  Chu Huan asked Xu Yi with a smile.

  Xu Yi nodded, and said happily: "It went very well, and everyone is very happy to be able to come to Los Angeles for this meeting."

  Chu Huan said with a smile: "Take a good two days to relax, and when the personnel from the European Jiaku, Japan Jiaku and other places arrive, we will hold this meeting!"

  Xu Yi said: "Okay!"

  Afterwards, Chu Huan told Xu Yi again, asking her to inform the company's people to pay attention to safety here, and to contact Wu Shuhan in time if there is anything wrong!

  Even now, Chu Huan still doesn't think North America is a paradise. North America is only a paradise for rich people, and for people of yellow race, there will be danger anytime, anywhere.

   It's just that many people have no idea about this.

   After briefly inquiring about Xu Yi's situation in Xiangjiang, Chu Huan let her move freely. Now it's just that the people from Xiangjiang Jiaku have come.

  The next team to arrive in Los Angeles is the Europa League.

  Although Europe is also a big market for Aku, Chu Huan seldom goes to Europe to contact the staff there, so he can take this opportunity to contact the people in Aku in Europe.

   This time, all the people from the global armor library were called to Los Angeles, not only to listen to their reports, but also to make these companies coordinate with each other.

For example, the black and white theater chain has acquired a European theater company, and is now actively expanding the number of theaters in the European theater chain. There are very few cooperations in the film industry. This time, after the people from the European theaters come over, Chu Huan will introduce them to Kelly from Vertex Films.

  At night, Chu Huan came to Armand Hammer's villa in casual clothes, accompanied by Wu Shuhan, and met this legendary North American businessman.

   "In my hometown, there is a saying that heroes come out of youth. It turns out that I have always refused to accept my old age, but now after seeing Director Chu, I really have to admit that I am old!"

   After meeting Chu Huan and hugging him warmly, Armand Hammer couldn't help but preach.

   "Dr. Hammer is too modest, I am familiar with your heroic deeds, really admirable!" Chu Huan said with a smile.

  Amand Hammer laughed, and after inviting Chu Huan to sit down, he sighed: "I have always been interested in the mysterious oriental culture. This time I took the liberty to invite Director Chu, and I hope that Director Chu won't mind!"

   "I think Dr. Hammer will have many opportunities to learn about oriental culture in the future!" Chu Huan said seriously.

Hearing what Chu Huan said, Armand Hammer's eyes lit up immediately, and he said with a smile: "I heard that Director Chu has a good relationship with the senior management of his hometown. By saying this, Director Chu knows what has changed in his hometown? "

Chu Huan said: "I'm just a businessman who can know what, but I think it's a good signal that my hometown can invite businessmen from Hong Kong and Macau to visit my hometown, so I think the development of my hometown It's definitely going to be different.”

   Armand Hammer leaned forward slightly. Although Chu Huan's words were ambiguous, the meaning inside was enough to make Armand Hammer excited.

"Mr. Chu, to tell you the truth, I am very optimistic about the future market of my hometown, and I have always wanted to establish a relationship with my hometown. Although I claim to be one of the businessmen who have studied my hometown the most in North America, it is still not as good as Mr. Chu, a Xiangjiang businessman like you, knows your hometown better, if Mr. Chu can give you some advice, I will be very grateful for Mr. Chu's help."

  Chu Huan said with a smile: "Of course, if I can help Dr. Hammer, I will be very happy!"

   Armand Hammer immediately smiled and said, "Please speak, Mr. Chu."

  Chu Huan said: "My hometown is one of the largest countries in the world. The leaders have a heart like the sea. They are open to foreign investment, but there is one thing I hope Dr. Hammer can pay attention to!"

   "I would like to hear more about it!" Armand Hammer asked immediately.

"Respect!" Chu Huan spit out two words slowly, and then explained: "It is true that the development of my hometown is not as good as those in developed countries, but through my understanding, the leaders of my hometown have determination , the determination to lead my hometown to a brighter future."

Having said that, Chu Huan paused for a moment, and said to Armand Hammer: "Dr. Hammer, I think about my hometown, the history between the two countries in North America, international status, social background, etc., I don't need to say, you Can you feel it deeply?"

   Armand Hammer said in a somewhat silent voice: "Naturally!"

Chu Huan said with a smile: "Respect is one of the important factors in making friends with each other. Just like this time, Dr. Hammer, you have sincerely invited me twice. This is your respect for me. When we come here today, we can chat openly and honestly. , this is my respect to you Dr. Hammer.

   It is because of mutual respect that we will be able to become friends in the future.

And Dr. Hammer, you want to enter the market of your hometown and break the bottleneck of Occidental Petroleum's current development, and your hometown also needs new funds to enter the local market to provide assistance for the future development of your hometown. It can be said that this is a relationship that both parties need. , if Dr. Hammer's heart is the same as other North American businessmen, he blindly thinks that his hometown is what your country advertises.

  I think even if there is cooperation between the two parties, it will not be a long-term cooperation. "

   Armand Hamer showed a serious expression, nodded, and said: "Yes, respect is indeed the beginning of a good relationship. Director Chu's words made me suddenly enlightened, thank you very much!"

  Chu Huan said: "Dr. Hammer is too polite, I am just expressing some thoughts in my heart!"

Armand Hammer said again: "However, Director Chu, although I have always maintained enough respect for my hometown, after all, there is no good opportunity for us to connect with each other. If Director Chu can help, whether it is me Both personally and we at Occidental Petroleum will be grateful for this!"

  What I said before is actually the opening remarks. The real reason why Armand Hammer invited Chu Huan this time is to let Chu Huan be the middleman who allows him to meet with the high-level executives in his hometown.

  Chu Huan already knew Armand Hammer's thoughts, and Chu Huan had no idea about Armand Hammer's entry into the home market.

As Chu Huan said before, in fact, many things are already doomed. As far as the situation of his hometown is concerned, in the future, there will definitely be countless foreign capitals entering. Huan can make any changes in this matter.

  The only thing Chu Huan can do is to fight for more right to speak for himself in the process.

for example

"Although Occidental Petroleum has plenty of funds, Occidental Petroleum's development is still too big, and there are many places to use funds. If you want to invest in your hometown, you must not only consider your own cash situation, but also consider your hometown. Will there be some changes in the situation, I don't know if I'm right, Dr. Hammer?”

   Armand Hammer pondered for a moment, then guessed Chu Huan's meaning, "If Director Chu is willing, we can jointly establish a company and seek cooperation with my hometown!"

This is what Chu Huan thought of after receiving Hammer's invitation. Chu Huan has always wanted to find an opportunity to enter the energy market. Before going to Europe, he wanted to cooperate with Huo Mei in France according to the situation in Iran. Ni saw that when he was in Japan, he took a stake in Mitsui & Co., which was an opportunity for Chu Huan to seek to enter the energy market.

   Now that Armand Hammer, the chairman of the North American Occidental Petroleum Company, has found himself, Chu Huan still wants to take advantage of this opportunity and enter the energy market.

  The reason why Armand Hamer agreed to cooperate with Chu Huan after simple consideration was because Armand Hamer was indeed very optimistic about the energy market in his hometown.

  People like Armand Hammer's understanding of their hometown is actually far beyond the imagination of many people, and North America has actually investigated the oil reserves of their hometown a long time ago.

  As early as the 1920s, Professor Blackwild of Stanford University in North America conducted a geological survey of his hometown and pointed out: "My hometown is an oil-poor country."

  In the same period, the Mobil Oil Company searched for oil in S North and returned without success.

  Since then, the "hometown poor oil theory" has become widely popular.

  But after the war, this argument began to lose its footing. At that time, my hometown developed and constructed two major oil fields and other various oil fields (I dare not write the details later, it may be sensitive content. Hehe).

  By 1973, my hometown was able to export crude oil to Japan and other Asian neighbors, which made Western countries, including North America, look at my hometown's energy production capacity with admiration.

  When the oil crisis broke out in 1973, the Arab oil exporting countries imposed an oil embargo on North America and Europe, making my hometown an indispensable oil exporting country in the eyes of the Western world including North America.

  Some people even think that the oil resources in the offshore of the hometown may make the hometown become the second Saudi Arabia.

  One of the hot topics in the North American energy security research community at that time was to discuss the significance of being a potential oil exporting country to North America's oil supply.

  Due to the long-term lack of contacts, North America does not know the oil reserves and the status of the oil industry in its hometown, but some scholars still expect their hometown to become a new source of oil imports for North America.

   It was also in this year that a North American trade delegation visited his hometown, accompanied by Andrew Gibson, president of the North American Interstate Petroleum Transportation Company.

  By 1975, my hometown began to import related equipment from North America on a large scale.

  In March, the hometown YY ​​Group signed a contract with Mobil Oil Company of North America to import lubricants and oil tanks for tankers, and reached agreements with Gulf Oil and Exxon to purchase oil tanks.

  In October, my hometown purchased oil exploration equipment from Kellogg Company.

  During the Canton Fair in the autumn of the same year, the hometown also invited representatives of North American Baker Trading Company, Dresser Company, Litton Resources Company, Rockwell Automation Company and other companies to Beijing to discuss the import of "oil drilling and exploration equipment".

From November to December 1975, Laojia signed an oilfield equipment procurement contract worth 30 million US dollars with North American Internet Data Corporation, Cameron Steel Corporation, Caterpillar Corporation, and Dowell Corporation, and also reached an agreement with Litton Resources Corporation signed an agreement to purchase offshore exploration equipment.

  Last year, my hometown sent a delegation to conduct investigations in Europe, America, Japan and other countries. One of the focuses of the investigation was the petroleum technology in North America.

Laojia Machinery Import and Export Corporation and Laojia Oil and Gas Exploration and Development Corporation jointly sent 10 representatives to visit North America for one and a half months, focusing on Texas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Alaska and other places The 47 oil companies in China are particularly interested in equipment such as drilling platforms, seismic measurement equipment and ships, well logging systems, and downhole devices.

  Two months later, my hometown sent a higher-level oil delegation to visit the United States.

  In the same year, North America also sent a delegation to investigate the oil fields in his hometown.

  The mutual exploration of oil between the two sides can be said to be a mutual exploration of the opening of trade channels between the two countries.

  However, there is no Occidental Petroleum among the projects under investigation.

  This is something Armand Hammer is very anxious about. He is more optimistic about the future development of his hometown than anyone else, but seeing such a good opportunity, he has no way to participate, which is unacceptable to him.

  So the appearance of Chu Huan is very important to him, especially this year, a larger-scale hometown inspection team will arrive in North America soon.

   Occidental Petroleum is still not within the scope of the investigation.

   Armand Hammer knew that he had to make changes. If he didn't change, he might miss this opportunity for development.

At the same time, Armandhammer also relied on his influence in North America to get a message in advance that North America will greatly increase the export of advanced technology and equipment to his hometown this year, and the top one is related to oil exploration and production. equipment.

  With the support of so many conditions, Armand Hammer has no opinion on the matter that Chu Huan is going to join.

   "Great, I will let David Maxwell and Dr. Hammer contact you to discuss specific cooperation matters!"

  Chu Huan said with a smile.

  Armandhamer also put forward his own conditions in a timely manner, and said: "Director Chu, I don't know what you think of the inspection team from my hometown to North America this time!"

  Chu Huan said: "I will use my relationship to facilitate an informal meeting between Dr. Hammer and the delegation!"

   Regarding this matter, Chu Huan has some confidence. During this period, North America needs the oil market from his hometown, and his hometown also needs advanced technology from North America. At least at the current stage, the two sides need each other.

   And Occidental Petroleum, a proactive potential partner, I believe that my hometown will also be very willing to meet and discuss with him!

The smile on Armand Hammer's face could no longer be suppressed, and he said with a smile: "David is a very powerful businessman, I have had contact with him before, I believe this cooperation will be very pleasant! "

   This is basically the basis for cooperation between the two parties.

  Chu Huan also said with a smile on his face: "If this is the case, it will be a win-win situation!"

  In this transaction, Chu Huan knocked on the door of Occidental Petroleum Company with cash and connections, and at the same time entered the energy market of his hometown.

Armand Hammer successfully established a relationship with his hometown. He was in another time and space in advance. In another time and space, Armand Hammer sneaked into the banquet when the old man was visiting North America, and only met the old man. .

And my hometown also has a lot of gains. There is one more large oil company to choose from. At least in the current situation, my hometown belongs to Party A in this cooperation. Some terms that can be negotiated!

  The three parties get what they need, and the win-win situation is temporarily established!

  With the basis of this cooperation, the negotiation between Chu Huan and Armand Hammer became more enjoyable.

   At this time, Chu Huan thought of one thing. Armand Hammer is also a Jew, and his oil company is headquartered in Los Angeles, which means that Armand Hammer must have a good connection with the Jews in Los Angeles.

But Chu Huan did not talk about this matter at this time. One is that Chu Huan has not yet figured out how to tell Armand Hammer about the relationship between himself and Kelly, and the other is that the two parties have just begun to cooperate. Intent, no such cooperation has been formally established.

  So it is not suitable for the two parties to talk about this matter at this time.

  However, this matter can be regarded as a rocker that may break the Jewish control of Disney in the future.

   After returning home, we must discuss this matter with Kelly.

  Chu Huan didn't mention it, so Armand Hammer naturally didn't know about it, so the two sides communicated more about the specific matters of this cooperation.

  First of all, Armand Hammer invited Chu Huan to join the delegation to welcome his hometown to North America this time.

  Chu Huan thought for a while and agreed to Armand Hammer's invitation. After all, he still had to attend as an intermediary.

  Secondly, Armand expressed his desire to go to his hometown once.

   Regarding Armand Hammer's idea, Chu Huan said with a smile: "I can convey your thoughts, Mr. Hammer, but in the end it depends on the results of the negotiations between the two parties, and at the same time the attitude of the hometown."

   Armand Hammer nodded: "It should be."

  Finally, Armand Hammer left Chu Huan to finish his dinner in his manor before Chu Huan left here.

  After returning to his manor, Chu Huan saw that Li Xiaolong was already waiting here.

  Li Xiaolong's recent situation made him helpless.

   At this time, Li Xiaolong has become an absolute kung fu superstar in North America and even the world. Even Stallone, who has successfully promoted to the ranks of Hollywood first-line stars with "Rocky", still has some gaps with Li Xiaolong at this time.

  The most obvious thing is the remuneration of the two. Li Xiaolong is higher than Stallone. At the same time, Li Xiaolong also enjoys the right to share the box office in the production of certain movies.

   Li Xiaolong can be said to be the first to achieve such an achievement in Hollywood as a yellow race.

  However, what made Li Xiaolong feel helpless was that the box office of his local films in Xiangjiang continued to decline.

  How should I put it, when people in Xiangjiang now mention Li Xiaolong, they are still full of pride. Everyone will say that Li Xiaolong is the pride of Xiangjiang, an absolute superstar who has gone out in Xiangjiang.

  However, the box office of Li Xiaolong's films in Xiangjiang has been difficult to show his previous appeal at the box office in Xiangjiang.

   "The moviegoers in Xiangjiang are tired of your actions!"

  Chu Huan directly pointed out the reason why Li Xiaolong's movie box office in Xiangjiang continued to drop.

Li Xiaolong ushered in a new era of kung fu movies, but as Li Xiaolong came to Hollywood to develop, Xiangjiang's action movie market, driven by Chu Huan, entered the ranks of witty action movies in advance, so it also led to Li Xiaolong action movies Embarrassing scenes of incompleteness began to appear in Xiangjiang.

  The audience's aesthetics will change.

Sitting on the sofa, Li Xiaolong said with some helplessness: "Actually, I also felt this. When I went to Xiangjiang to promote a new movie last year, I also found some Sanmao to watch Aaron's movie. They were moving. There are too many bridges designed in the film, so that it will not appear so boring, and it is indeed very attractive to the audience."

  Chu Huan nodded and said: "The problem is here now. After there are more elements in the movie, your fighting scenes will look a bit boring!"

  During the process of discussing this issue, the two finally came to a conclusion, that is the reason why Li Xiaolong's films can continue to be popular in Europe and the United States.

In fact, to put it simply, European and American audiences have little experience, not to mention the current European and American audiences, even ten or twenty years later, the same is true for European and American audiences. The entire Hollywood action movie is more about two big muscular sticks. Export their movies to moviegoers in a way that resembles street kids fighting.

   But Li Xiaolong is different. His actions have both strength and beauty, which can be said to directly open up new horizons for European and American audiences. Among the entire European and American action movies, Li Xiaolong's movies are a clear stream.

   "Is there no other way?"

  At this time, the Xiangjiang market is actually an insignificant market for Li Xiaolong, but as a superstar who came out of Xiangjiang, it is obvious that Li Xiaolong does not want to lose his status in Xiangjiang.

"A Huan, I know you are a person who has a lot of ideas about stories. At the beginning, my "Fist of Fury", "Happy Ghost" with black and white images, "Dragon Ball", "Tomb Raider" and "Transformers" of fantasy comics You provided the stories, and Sanmao, Aaron and the others' film styles were opened by you, so I'm afraid I'll trouble you again this time!”

   Li Xiaolong sincerely asked Chu Huan for advice.

Chu Huan thought for a while, and said, "I think you should change your method. Of course, it's not like Sanmao, Aaron and the others. If you shoot any kind of movie, you will probably be scolded to death by fans." !"

Everyone has their own movie style, Zhou Xingchi's nonsensical, Cheng Long's witty moves and his desperate style are all imprinted in the audience's bones. If one day you let them perform in a different style, it will definitely make movie fans Angry scolding.

  The fans of Xiangjiang movies in this era really have the guts, after all, the midnight screening is still a tradition of Xiangjiang movies at this time.

  Chu Huan asked Li Xiaolong to change his style. In fact, he added more fighting skills on the basis of maintaining his original fighting style.

"Can we design a decent guy and a villain? The decent guy is alone, the villain is powerful, and at the same time, the villain's subordinates gather all kinds of fighting masters, including kung fu masters, taekwondo masters, judo masters, muay thai masters, etc. .

  The protagonist is a bit like clearing the game, going through the stories one by one, and then let these protagonists fight one by one, and finally the super showdown with the big villain, the most important of which is to heighten the tension of the atmosphere.”

   Speaking of this, Chu Huan suddenly thought of two later movies "Slaying the Wolf" and "The Fuse"!

  If the "Ip Man" series is the movie that made Zhen Yuxiu turn around again, then the two films "Slaying the Wolf" and "Fuse" are actually the two movies that established Zhen Yuxiu's status in the world.

  In these two films, Zhen Yuzhou contributed two action scenes that can be recorded in Xiangjiang film history.

  In "Slaying the Wolf", the fight between Zhen Yuyu and Wu Zhanlang in the alley, in "The Fuse", the final decisive battle between Zhen Yuyu and Zou Jiaotou.

  It is one of the most exciting fighting scenes in Xiangjiang film history.

Before Li Xiaolong became a movie superstar, his more familiar identity was actually a martial artist. Chu Huan believes that Li Xiaolong definitely has a good understanding of all kinds of fighting in the world. Really able to shine.

  Li Xiaolong was also attracted by what Chu Huan said, and began to seriously consider Chu Huan's suggestion. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that what Chu Huan said made sense.

   Then asked excitedly: "Is there any specific story to tell?"

  Chu Huan thought for a while, and then told Li Xiaolong the main story line of the movie "Slaying the Wolf".

The more Li Xiaolong listened, the more excited he became, and the more he listened, the more he got up. He couldn't help but stood up and said: "This story is very good, A Huan. I'm going to look for this kind of talent now, and incorporate more fighting skills into the movie. Why didn't I think of this before!"

  Chu Huan stood up with a smile and said, "Then I wish your new movie a big hit!"

  Li Xiaolong immediately corrected: "I wish our movie a big hit!"

Li Xiaolong's film contract in Hong Kong is currently signed in black and white video. At the same time, because the contract with Warner is over in Hollywood, Li Xiaolong's film contract in Hollywood is now being contracted by Kelly's Vertex Films, Li Xiaolong's own Concord Films and Zou Wenhuai's Golden Harvest, Shared possession!

   "Okay, I wish our movie a big hit!" Chu Huan said with a smile.
