After listening to Yi Mingzhe's reminder about the TV station, Gao Xian still attached great importance to it. After talking, he left and saw that there was plenty of time, so he went to St. Paul's hospital where Yi Minghe lived. It is very close to Causeway Bay. It is a private hospital with French church background. Although it is not large and famous, it has no medical conditions to say.

Before Gao Xian rose, Yi Ming and his family were full of goodwill towards him. Therefore, sir Gao today has always remembered this feeling. When he visited, he was full of sincere feelings. "Uncle, I know you are in a hurry and empty handed. Please forgive me."

"I know you're busy." Yi Ming, who is old-fashioned, chuckled. "In fact, it's more sincere for you to come like this."

Yilu Yanqun also said in an active atmosphere: "Sir Gao is his own family. It's best to be free."

Gao Xian asked with concern, "uncle, how do you feel now?"

Yi Minghe replied dismissively, "heart disease, old problem."

Yilu Yanqun quickly added: "the doctor said that in order to control the disease, we must rest at ease and rest, and all work must be put down."

Gao Xian sympathized and said, "uncle's health is the most important. Just leave the work to others for the time being."

"The years are unforgiving. I really can't do what I want." Yi Minghe sighed. "I wanted to find time to discuss the TV station with you. Now it's just time to talk about it."

"I haven't been to the TV station's office for some time. If I continue to lie in the hospital bed like this, the chairman of the board of directors should choose other people who can perform their duties. Are you interested in taking over?"

"My position has been overwhelmed." Gao Xian shook his head slightly and turned his eyes to Yi Lu Yanqun. "I think, just from the equity of TV station, even if the third uncle wants to rest, the position of chairman of the board of directors can still be controlled by the Yi family. There is no need for me to come forward."

Seeing Gao Xian looking at himself, Yi Lu Yanqun quickly said, "I know myself clearly. If Sir Gao means to let me take over as the chairman of the board of directors of the TV station, I think highly of me. I can't be competent regardless of ability or qualification. Moreover, your brothers and sisters are not interested in the specific management of the TV station."

Gao Xian scratched his head. This posture is to have no successors.

You know, Yi Minghe founded BTV outside the Yi group system led by Yi Mingzhe, and Yi Mingzhe had not been hidden by the Hong Kong government at that time.

In other words, if no member of Yi Ming and his team can continue to serve as the chairman of the board of directors of the TV station and Yi group can not intervene, the influence of Yi family will inevitably be marginalized step by step, and Gao Xian will be distracted.

In other words, Yi Lu Yanqun told the truth. She is a rich family. She can entertain all kinds of communication activities as a social celebrity. However, she really can't convince the public in the TV station's board of directors. Only Sir Gao can live with Shao Yifu and other shareholders.

But the problem is that Gao Xian knows the bottom line of the Hong Kong government at this stage.

It is true that Xiangjiang is a free port, but this does not mean that the Hong Kong government really allows the media to ignore it. Especially in the 1980s, television has become popular in Xiangjiang and its influence is immeasurable. The Hong Kong government can no longer tolerate a consortium monopolizing such important public resources. Jardine's peace is an example for reference.

In the mid-1960s, the Hong Kong government issued a license to transmit TV programs using radio wave technology. Jardine joined ho Tso Chi's commercial radio station to participate in the bidding. As a result, the consortium led by Yi Minghe won. It was not until later that Jardine became addicted to entering the television industry, but Jiayi television soon closed down. This situation is not really irreversible. In the final analysis, the Hong Kong government does not want Jiayi TV's equity to be too concentrated in the hands of the Lin family.

The Hong Kong government's strategy of checks and balances, which can only be understood and unspeakable, may not be able to pay attention to the layout in a few years, but now there is no need to fight hard, and it is not worth it. Because the Hong Kong government has the initiative to "wear shoes", Yi Minghe of BTV slowly said: "according to the latest information I have, the board of directors of the TV station may not be calm. Someone wants to join."

High string eyebrows a pick, "who?"

"You should be familiar with Qiu degan of the Far East Group." Yi Minghe motioned his wife to give a document to Gao Xian. "It is said that Qiu degan has privately collected hundreds of thousands of shares of TV stations and should be the largest individual shareholder."

"Really familiar." Gao Xian's eyes narrowed. "Qiu Degen wants to engage in industrial transformation like Lei juekun of Jiulong construction industry."

Yi Minghe reminded: "Although Qiu degan and Shao Yifu are from the same hometown, their relationship is incompatible. More than ten years ago, when Shao and Dianmao fought against each other, he supported Dianmao in the theater in the new territories. However, Dianmao's boss Lu Yuntao died in a plane crash on Baodao, and Dianmao declined. Since Shao's family was dominant, Qiu degan had to hibernate. Now he collects shares of TV stations and tries to enter Board of directors, can you live in peace with Shao Yifu? "

Gao Xianshen thought: "the third uncle has made a thorough analysis. The board of directors of the TV station is really surging with your rest."

Yi Lu Yanqun noticed that her husband was tired, so he quietly winked at Gao Xian, "Sir Gao, I'll trouble you about the board of directors of the TV station."

Gao Xian naturally understood it. Before he got up and left, he said, "uncle, don't worry about the TV station. I'll deal with it. Although I'm not suitable to take over the chairman of the board of directors, I can decide the control of the TV station!"

Feeling Gao Xian's casual self-confidence, Yi Ming and his face were full of joy. Holding Gao Xian's hand, he sighed: "how lucky the Yi family can have your excellent son-in-law. If one day I'm gone, please take care of your brothers and sisters."

Yi Minghe's words showed a sense of entrustment, and tears flashed in Yi luyanqun's eyes. Yi Minghe married very late and was more than ten years older than Yilu Yanqun. He is a typical old husband and young wife. Yi Yulian, the largest of his children, is now less than 30 years old. It is inevitable that he is a little worried.

Gao Xian said positively, "I remember the kindness of the third uncle to me. I will never forget your instructions!"

"OK, ok..." Yi Minghe slowly let go of Gao Xian's hand and said with a smile: "go and be busy."

Yi Lu Yanqun sent Gao Xian out. Tears finally fell down. "I don't know if your third uncle can survive this level."

Gao Xian is speechless. It's not optimistic that Yi Minghe is so old and has such a serious heart disease.

Of course, the mood swings caused by birth, old age, illness and death were quickly swept away by the high string, which has now been honed like a rock. After he got in the car, his mind turned to the TV station.

At this stage, although BTV has not been publicly listed on the stock exchange, its shares are relatively dispersed and quite liquid under the check and balance strategy of the Hong Kong government.

For example, at the beginning, the members of the joint bidding included Yi Minghe and his two brothers who also participated in their personal capacity, Yu Jingwei, Shao Yifu, British Independent Television, the National Broadcasting Corporation of America, etc; Today, individual shareholders such as Yi Ming and brothers, Yu Jingwei and Shao Yifu are still there, but institutional shareholders have changed greatly, mainly Huifeng bank, Shanghua culture and American times.

Specifically, at present, BTV's shares are divided into 10 million shares, and Huifeng bank has about 2.36 million shares; When Hutchison was in financial crisis, Qi dezun of Hutchison Daban resold the equity of BTV to Gao Xian along with the core assets of Huangpu dock. This amount was also about 2.36 million shares. Therefore, Shanghua culture and Huifeng bank were the largest institutional shareholders of BTV; American times owns slightly less BTV shares, at 2.26 million shares.

As institutional investment, Huifeng bank and American times are not interested in participating in the specific operation of BTV; Shanghua culture is also this attitude on the surface, so the control of BTV's specific operation is in the hands of individual shareholders.

Among the individual shareholders, Yi Minghe has not the largest number of BTV shares, about 270000 shares, which is about 50000 shares less than Shao Yifu. However, Yi Minghe's two younger brothers still have 110000 shares. With Yi Minghe leading the bidding for the TV license, it is natural to sit as the chairman of the board of directors.

Unfortunately, Yi Minghe is not competent for his work because of his health. In addition, the board of directors of BTV may really make waves because of the secret operation of people like Qiu Degen.

After getting off the bus, Gao Yaoxue, her sister who was helping Gao Xian deal with the banquet, greeted her and handed over a document, "this is the guest arrangement list. Do you have any mistakes?"

Gao Xian glanced quickly and casually pointed out: "arrange Qiu Degen of the Far East Group, Shao Yifu and Chen Tinghua at the same table."

Gao Yaoxue said in surprise, "don't tell me. You don't know. Although Qiu Degen and Shao Yifu are fellow townsmen, they have always had a bad relationship."

Gao Xian said faintly, "relationship and discord are rumors. I want to see the actual situation."

Gao Yaoxue reminded again, "you're not afraid of something wrong at that time!"

Gao Xian smiled playfully, "we are all decent people. What can go wrong?"

"That's true." Gao Yaoxue nodded. "Sir Gao has such a big face, they always want to give some."

Speaking of this, Gao Yaoxue warned: "however, if something really goes wrong at that time, you can't blame me for my poor arrangement in order to find the steps. I won't carry this pot."

Gao Xian was amused. "Your aunt, who dares to provoke me? If something goes wrong, I'll be responsible."
