263 [Hongmen Banquet]
Zeng Zhiwei and Chen Xunqi ran to Kang Jianfei's office and asked, "Who is Arnold Schwarzenegger?"
Kang Jianfei asked strangely: "Have you heard of his name before?"
Zeng Zhiwei asked back: "Is he very famous?"
Kang Jianfei coughed awkwardly and said, "Schwarzenegger is a very famous person in the United States. You can find out if you go there and ask. However, he is not popular in the movie industry, so the pay should not be too high."
After hearing this, Zeng Zhiwei said happily: "That happens to be the best candidate in the United States with both reputation and low pay."
Kang Jianfei wanted to say something else, but there was a sudden knock on the door outside and he said casually: "Come in."
Lin Qingxia came in. She was dressed up quite cheerful today, wearing a white casual outfit and wide and straight trousers, which made her legs look slender and charming.
Lin Qingxia put her hands in her pockets and smiled at Kang Jianfei, "A Fei, it's getting late."
Kon Ka-fei said to Zeng Zhiwei and Chen Xunqi: "That's it, you can do the rest."
"Then I'll leave first." Zeng Zhiwei left very consciously, and nodded at Lin Qingxia when he left, so Chen Xunqi naturally followed him out.
Kang Jianfei took off the coat from the hanger and put it on, walked over and kissed Lin Qingxia on the forehead, hugged her slender waist and walked outside.
Guan Zhilin's father Guan Shan lost money in business in Hong Kong and did not make much money in acting. He has now immigrated to the United States and plans to reconcile with his ex-wife Zhang Bingqing. Without Guan Shan in the company, Kang Jianfei is not afraid of rumors about his scandals with other women in the company. Anyway, he won't admit it if he beat him to death.
The two dragged their men downstairs and went straight to Liyuan.
When Kang Jianfei first heard Yang Dengkui's name, he had not yet reacted, but when he called Chen Qili to ask for details, he immediately remembered that Yang Dengkui was here.
In another time and space, Yang Dengkui is definitely a famous figure in the Taiwanese film and television industry. This man killed someone 10 years ago and was released from prison. He was bailed for "common amnesty to the world" after he was released from prison. After he was released from prison, he has been running a nightclub and used drugs, violence and other means to control several artists to help him make money.
This person's investment vision is very accurate. Later, he not only invested in a lot of blockbuster commercial films such as "Red Fen Corps", "Kung Fu Emperor Fang Shiyu", "Directional Dragon Power", and "The Producer of "The City of Sadness" won the Golden Lion Award. Although Yang Dengkui was the founding veteran of the "Tiandao Alliance", one of the three major gangs in Taiwan, he was completely whitewashed later. Not only did he serve as the chairman of the Golden Horse Awards, but he was also the boss of Taiwan's first cable TV station.
Although Kang Jianfei is not familiar with the Taiwanese film industry, he still has some hearing about such a heavyweight figure. Now that he has to match people, he naturally has to take the opportunity to make friends, so that he can do things better in Taiwan in the future.
Kang Jianfei has always believed that making friends does not mean flattery. For people like Yang Dengkui, it is useless to flatter him no matter how much you please him. But if he asks you for your request, he will naturally come to him on his own initiative.
Now Yang Dengkui is just a relatively powerful gang figure in southern Taiwan. Compared with the power, Wang Ke of the Wenshan Gang, whose hands and feet are not as good as Kang Jian's gang, is the best time to win over the relationship.
As the masters, Kang Jianfei and Lin Qingxia naturally have to go first.
After waiting for a while, Xiang Huaqiang also came. This guy has been working on a new film with Wang Jing recently. It seems that his name is "The Big Young Master of Flowers", which is the same type as last year's "Hardcover Chasing Girls". The male leads are Chen Baixiang and Alan Tam, while the female leads are Zhong Chuhong, Liu Xuehua and Qian Huiyi.
After Xiang Huaqiang entered the private room, he saw Lin Qingxia. After being a little stunned, he smiled and shook hands with Lin Qingxia and said, "Miss Lin, I have always been your movie fan."
Lin Qingxia knew that Xiang Huaqiang was from a club and shook hands and smiled: "It's not a great honor."
Xiang Huaqiang glanced at the bowls and chopsticks on the table and asked Kang Jianfei, "Who else is coming?"
Kang Jianfei nodded and smiled, "A friend from Taiwan, I heard that he is a person on the Tao. I am not familiar with people on the Tao and have no knowledge of this, so I want to invite Brother Qiang to come and keep the market."
Xiang Huaqiang was amused and crying. He received a call from Kang Jianfei for dinner. He thought Kang Jianfei was going to work with him to make a movie, but he didn't expect to pull him out as a shield.
"People from the Sihai Gang?" Xiang Huaqiang asked. He heard that Kang Jianfei had cooperated with the Zhulian Gang, so he subconsciously thought that the people who were coming today were people from the Sihai Gang.
Kang Jianfei replied: "It's from the Northwest Gang."
Xiang Huaqiang laughed as soon as he heard this and said disdainfully: "Northwest Gang? I haven't heard of it before, where did the small gang come from?"
As soon as Xiang Huaqiang finished speaking, the door of the private room was suddenly knocked, and noisy sounds came from outside - the younger brother who was staying outside the door had a conflict with Yang Dengkui.
"Brother Qiang, there are a few Taiwanese people who want to come in, saying they are looking for Mr. Kang." The door was suddenly pushed open, and the red stick named "Tiger Head" who was subdued by Kang Jianfei last time came in.
Xiang Huaqiang put aside his teeth and said, "It's a guest from afar, let him come in."
Yang Dengkui and Zhu Yanping were put in by Xiang Huaqiang's people, but several followers brought by Yang Dengkui were stopped.
As soon as he entered the private room, Yang Dengkui angrily said in Mandarin with a Taiwan accent: "This is how Mr. Kang treats you?"
Kang Jianfei laughed, stood up and shook hands with Yang Dengkui enthusiastically and said, "It was all a misunderstanding just now. Mr. Yang, don't be angry. I really want to have a good drink with you."
It’s weird if you’re sincere!
Yang Dengkui complained in his heart, but he didn't dare to turn against each other easily. After all, this is Hong Kong, not Taiwan. Those people outside the door are obviously also on the Tao. If you have a strong dragon, you will not suppress local snakes. He must be the one who suffers losses in Hong Kong.
Kang Jianfei wanted this effect. The so-called leveraging the power to fight. Today he asked Xiang Huaqiang to have a drink, just to pull the banner of Xin Yi'an to make a tiger's skin.
"Let me introduce it. This is Mr. Xiang Huaqiang, Xinyi'an." Kang Jianfei said with a smile, "Mr. Xiang's father is a general of the Republic of China and a descendant of the famous place in the country."
After Yang Dengkui heard the name of Xin Yian, the only thing he had on his body disappeared immediately. Now that the Taiwan Heavenly Dao Alliance has not been established, Yang Dengkui is just a master of the Northwest Gang. How dare he play tricks on Xiang Huaqiang?
The most powerful gang in Hong Kong in the 1970s was 14K, but in recent years, the development of Xin Yee An has exceeded 14K, becoming the number one community in Hong Kong, with more than 100,000 brothers under his command alone.
Yang Dengkui seemed to have changed his personality in an instant, shook hands with Xiang Huaqiang respectfully and said, "Hello, Brother Qiang, I am the Northwest Gang Yang Dengkui."
Xiang Huaqiang saw that there seemed to be a marriage between Kang Jianfei and Yang Dengkui. He clasped his ears with his fingers and asked in a contemptuous tone: "Which Northwest Gang?"
Yang Dengkui was slightly angry and pressed his heart and said unhappy: "Taiwan Kaohsiung Northwest Gang."
"Oh, I came from Kaohsiung, no wonder I haven't heard of it." Xiang Huaqiang laughed and said, "Please sit down."
Yang Dengkui sat down with anger. Seeing Xiang Huaqiang pressing Yang Dengkui to death, Zhu Yanping guessed that he was a big shot in Hong Kong and did not dare to go out and follow him in the seat.
Exquisite Cantonese cuisine was served on the table, but the atmosphere of this Hongmen banquet was a bit bad.
Kang Jianfei, the host, kept smiling, Xiang Huaqiang said coldly, Yang Dengkui was still muffled when he was angry, and Zhu Yanping was so scared that he dared not speak.
Seeing this, Lin Qingxia had to smooth things over and hold the wine glass and said, "Mr. Yang, Director Zhu, everyone comes from Taiwan, I will give you a cup."
Yang Dengkui didn't want to make the scene a frustrated, and he didn't dare to turn against Xiang Huaqiang in Hong Kong. At this time, Lin Qingxia toasted and gave him a step. She immediately picked up the wine glass and said with a smile: "Ms. Lin is in love. In fact, I have always been a fan of Miss Lin. This time I invited Miss Lin to star in a movie to fulfill my dream of chasing stars when I was young."
Kang Jianfei waited for Yang Dengkui to drink the glass of wine before he knocked on the table with his glass and said, "There are many ways to invite someone to make a movie, not everyone can force him to invite him. Mr. Yang, don't you?"
"Mr. Kang is right." Yang Dengkui said with apologizing. How dare he fly with Kang Jian? Not to mention that Xiang Huaqiang is guarding him in Hong Kong, even in Taiwan, the Bamboo Alliance Gang is not afforded by the Northwest Gang.
Yang Dengkui is a newcomer who has half a foot in the film industry, and he has been in the south and is not very clear about the situation in Taipei. He is preparing to make movies entirely to make money. People say that Lin Qingxia is the most popular, so he has to invite Lin Qingxia to star in "The Red Fen Corps". When he didn't understand the relationship between Kang Jianfei, Lin Qingxia and the Bamboo Alliance Gang, he took it for granted and sent someone to Hong Kong to invite him.
As a result, after Kang Jianfei showed his tough attitude, Yang Dengkui found someone to inquire and found out that the Bamboo Alliance Gang and Dream Factory were in a cooperative relationship. Lin Qingxia was protected by the Bamboo Alliance Gang, so he couldn't have hired it forcibly.
The Northwest Gang and the Bamboo Alliance Gang, one in the north and the other in the south, do not have much intersection, and no one is afraid of offending anyone. However, Taiwan’s film base is in Taipei, and all the formal film companies in Taiwan are in Taipei. If Yang Dengkui wants to develop in the film industry, he will definitely not offend the northern gang such as the Bamboo Alliance Gang.
Yang Dengkui is a person who can take it and let it go. He used to be young and energetic, but he would no longer be able to kill a person by squeaking a knife if he didn't say anything. Now he is still in gangs mainly to make money. The prison disaster of several years has made him calmer. After thinking it through, he actually picked up the wine glass and apologized to Kang Jianfei in public: "Mr. Kang, Miss Lin, what happened before was that I, Mr. Yang, are wrong, and the two adults don't remember the villain's fault."
Kang Jianfei rushed to Hua Qiang and smiled, picked up the wine and stood up and said, "It's easy to say, but I actually want to make friends with heroes like Mr. Yang."
