As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Ye opened the door, frowned slightly and said to Li Qiang: "Reporter Du, are you okay?"
"Um... Director Lu, I did not come here for official reasons, but for a private matter. I hope you will forgive me for disturbing me, Director Lu."
"Private matter? What private matter?"
Even though he was aware of the obvious displeasure in Lu Ye's tone, Li Qiang could only bite the bullet and continue: "That... is... I don't know who is the quick talker who made Director Lu
It has been announced that you are going to film at the Peace Hotel. I was just about to go to the restaurant for lunch when I ran into an old friend who asked me to introduce him to you."
“I didn’t expect that the Du University reporter is really easy-going!”
Facing Lu Ye's sarcasm, Li Qiang could only shrug with a wry smile, "I can't help it. After all, the other party is Japanese. I, a young reporter, can't afford to offend him!"
"Japanese? No wonder..." Immediately after, Lu Ye's attitude made a 180-degree turn, "Since we are Japanese friends, it doesn't hurt to meet, but... what is the purpose of the other party's visit?"
"Oh, look at my brain, I actually forgot the most important thing. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Ishikawa-kun is here to discuss cooperation with you, Director Lu, on behalf of Panasonic Electric."
"Cooperation?" As soon as these words came out, Lu Ye immediately became energetic.
"Yes, I think it's investment sponsorship or something like that." Li Qiang said truthfully.
Before he finished speaking, Lu Ye's eyes also lit up. He couldn't restrain his excitement and said: "Really? That's really great! To tell you the truth, brother, I'm worried about investment sponsorship.
Oh! You are just a timely gift to me! I wonder where that Ishikawa-kun is now?"
“It’s in the restaurant downstairs.”
"Then what are you waiting for? Invite people quickly... No, no, no, no, that would make me appear too insincere. Wait a minute, brother. I'll go change my clothes and go down with you!"
After saying that, he turned around and ran into the room to change clothes, even forgetting to close the door.
In a short time, Lu Ye packed up and followed Li Qiang to the restaurant on the first floor.
After introducing the two parties to each other, Li Qiang, as the middleman, took the initiative to avoid it, leaving the two of them enough room to talk, and he went to the room of Chen Ming and his wife without stopping.
"Huh? Boss, why are you alone here? Where is Sister Yu?" As soon as Li Qiang entered the door, he saw Chen Mingzheng spread out on the sofa alone, and couldn't help but ask.
"I went out and said I was going around the neighborhood to see if there were any suitable stores." Chen Ming lazily leaned on the sofa and said as if he was about to be suffocated.
After hearing this, Li Qiang couldn't help but ask: "You went alone? Why don't you go with me?"
"You think I don't want to?" Chen Ming said with a look of resentment, "You said that a crappy crew suddenly showed up, and you insisted on shooting some crappy movie in this crappy place. If they accidentally filmed it,
If someone recognizes me again during the screening, wouldn't I be a loser?"
Hearing this, Li Qiang couldn't help but smile, "Say boss, are you too timid? How come you are so small and the camera can definitely capture you? Besides, even if you are being photographed,
Come on, your name won’t be written on it, and there are so many similar ones in the world, how can it be so easy for someone to recognize you!”
"That's right...Oh, brother, I feel much more at ease after hearing you say this. You don't know how uncomfortable it has been for your brother and me this morning! Let's go, let's go out with me first.
change."
"Going out for a walk? Where are you going?"
"What the hell? Anyway, I don't want to be bored in the room anymore."
"If you want to go, you can go by yourself. I don't have the time." Li Qiang said angrily, "Let's get down to business. The radio station has already been sorted out."
As he spoke, Li Qiang lowered his voice and briefly told Chen Ming Gu Xiaomeng's plan to convert a radio into a simple radio station.
However, Chen Ming was filled with disbelief when he heard this, "Can a radio be converted into a radio station? Is it true?"
"Of course it's true, otherwise why would I put so much effort into setting up this trap?"
"That's right!" Chen Ming tilted his head and thought for a while, but finally chose to believe it, "Then it's settled. When your sister comes back, she and I will make a careful calculation."
After coming out of Chen Ming and his wife's room, Li Qiang returned to his own room.
However, before he could tell Haitang and Gu Xiaomeng about the latest progress of Plan B, there was a knock on the door.
"Who?"
Before he finished speaking, Wu Shibao's voice rang out, "It's me."
After hearing this, Li Qiang stood up and opened the door, "You're back? How are things going?"
"It's all done."
"Where are the people?"
“The restaurant on the first floor.”
After hearing this, Li Qiang nodded with satisfaction, and then followed Wu Shibao to the restaurant on the first floor.
However, when Li Qiang came to the restaurant on the first floor and saw the rumored Yang Dazhanzi, he couldn't help but frown.
I saw that the man was wearing a fine cloth gown, a satin mandarin jacket, and a pair of shiny leather shoes on his feet. He had a slightly fat figure and a fair and chubby face. No matter how you looked at it, he had nothing to do with the Pole Gang. No wonder Li Qiang
There will be such a reaction.
"Are you Yang Dazhanzi?"
The man hurriedly nodded in agreement, and then cupped his hand, "Big Yang Jinyuan, I have met Master Ming."
Li Qiang still frowned, "I heard that all of you in the Gangzhi Gang are poor people who rely on begging for a living. I never thought that you, a big guy, live a decent life!"
After hearing Li Qiang's barely concealed sarcasm, Yang Jinyuan was not angry at all, but explained with a smile on his face: "Young Master Ming doesn't know something. The reason why our Gangzi Gang can gain a foothold in Fengtian is naturally indispensable for following you.
If you are dealing with such a powerful person, if you come in and out all dressed in rags, it will not only be embarrassing for us, the Gang, but it will also be embarrassing for you, Master Ming, right?"
"Well, that doesn't sound unreasonable." After hearing this, Li Qiang's expression softened a little, and then he went straight to the point, "I heard that the power of your Gangzi Gang is spread throughout Fengtian City.
, I must be well-informed, right?"
Yang Jinyuan was not modest, and directly patted his chest and said: "Master Ming, if you want to find out any information, you have found the right person. I am not bragging to you! There are no big or small things in Fengtian City.
We, the Pole Gang, can’t detect anything. No matter what happens, it can’t escape our eyes and ears.”
"I say Yang Dazhanzi, there must be a limit to this bragging. I don't deny that you beggars are well-informed, but it would be too much to say that all the troubles in Fengtian City cannot escape your eyes and ears.
Is that an exaggeration?"
"You can tell whether you are just talking or not, whether you are exaggerating or not, Master Ming will know after you try it." Yang Jinyuan said confidently.
"Really? Well, then just tell me some news related to Manchuria Railway."
"Mantie?" It's okay that Yang Jinyuan didn't listen. Hearing what Li Qiang said, he suddenly became nervous. He quickly glanced around to make sure no one was paying attention, then lowered his voice and asked, "Master Ming,
Could it be that you are..."
Li Qiang smiled and said, "Don't worry, none of us are."
Although Yang Jinyuan was still a little doubtful after hearing this, he was still more inclined to believe that what Li Qiang said was true, so he bravely said: "Okay! I believe you, if you want to talk about Fengtian City during this period,
The most widely circulated news related to the Manchuria Railway is probably the newly appointed deputy captain of the police force, Yamamoto Kazuki."
"Yamamoto Kazuki?"
"Yes, even though most of the guards are Chinese, the one who really has the final say is not the captain Cao Weidong, but the deputy captain Yamamoto Kazuki! I heard that guy came back from Germany
, is very good at training his subordinates, and it only took less than half a month to treat those old veterans so docilely that even the agents of the Security Bureau did not dare to provoke them easily."
"Well..." After hearing this, Li Qiang nodded with satisfaction, "It seems that I have to take back what I said before. Your Gangzi Gang does have a good way of inquiring about information. But if what I want to inquire about is a person's
As for the specific whereabouts, I wonder if your gang can find out?"
"Then it depends on who the person you want to find out is, Master Ming."
"President of Mitsui & Co., Ltd., Masao Mitsui."
…
"Master Ming, isn't it appropriate to leave such an important matter to a beggar gang leader?" After Yang Jinyuan left, Wu Shibao, who had been acting as a servant, finally couldn't help but said to Li Qiang.
However, Li Qiang shrugged after hearing this, "Of course I know this is inappropriate, but now I can't even see President Mitsui, so I can't wait here, right? Do you have anything else?
Method?"
Just as he was talking, someone clapped their hands and shouted loudly in the lobby: "Gentlemen, ladies, brothers and sisters, young and old men, all look at me! Look at me, look at me, I have something to announce! Tonight
, Director Lu will be filming a scene in the grand banquet hall. Everyone who participates in the filming, playing the role of a tycoon, will cost five hundred for each person in the upper class, and $800 for each person who will bring their own clothes to play the role of a noble lady. Come to me after the filming.
Get money on a first-come, first-served basis, no waiting after the deadline!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone immediately cheered, making Li Qiang look confused.
"What are they excited about?"
Wu Shibao also shrugged, as if don't ask me, I don't know either.
At this moment, Gu Xiaomeng's voice rang out, "Brother Ming, you don't know this, right? I heard that Director Lu spent a lot of money on this drama, using all his connections, and even
I don’t know what method he used to get the Japanese to come forward for him, and then he successfully invited Butterfly to play the heroine."
"Who are you talking about? Butterfly? Hasn't she already disappeared?" Li Qiang suddenly turned his head and looked at Gu Xiaomeng who had appeared behind him at some point and said.
"Yeah, that's why it's even more rare! If you're lucky enough to get an autograph, it might be out of print. It's exciting to think about it, right? And I also heard that not only Butterfly, but Director Lu also got it
The elder sister is a friendly star. If I could see two great movie queens competing on the same stage with my own eyes, not to mention getting money, there would be a lot of people competing for the money and not even having the chance!"
After hearing what Gu Xiaomeng said, Wu Shibao suddenly nodded. When Li Qiang heard Butterfly's name at first, he was quite calm. He was just a little surprised. However, when he heard the word "eldest sister"
After the greeting, a look of surprise appeared on his face unconsciously.
It's no wonder. After all, in today's film industry, there is probably only one person who is qualified to be called "Big Sister", and that is the wife of his immediate boss, Tang Shengming. She is the first celebrity to have a female secretary for herself.
Movie queen, Xu Lai.
I really didn't expect that Lu Ye, who lived up to his name and had an extraordinary path, could hire two movie queens at once. No wonder when I went to the Panasonic office to ask Ishikawa for help, the other party agreed so happily.
It seems that this Mr. Lu is not only a wild man, but also very ambitious. Judging from this attitude, he plans to go down in film history!
But that's fine. The more powerful the crew is, the more beneficial it will be for your next action plan. Thinking about it this way, it's not a bad thing.
Just as he was thinking about it, there was a commotion at the door of the hotel, which attracted curious glances from people sitting in the restaurant.
In fact, not only in the restaurant, but also outside the hotel, many people stopped and stared.
As Li Qiang and others happened to be sitting by the window, they quickly had a panoramic view of everything happening outside.
I saw a brand new Cadillac parked in front of the hotel. Soon, the surrounding area was surrounded by curious spectators. Although the security team worked hard to maintain order at the scene, the curious crowd continued to gather.
In just one cup of tea, the entrance to the hotel was completely blocked.
It was not long, and accompanied by exclamations from the crowd, a beautiful woman wearing an indigo-colored cheongsam and a precious fur shawl, with an elegant smile on her face, gave people a dignified and beautiful feeling all the time.
The man got out of the car with great dignity.
Even though she was covered by a shawl, her graceful figure set off by the carefully tailored cheongsam and her unique elegance left a deep impression on many people and firmly attracted everyone's attention.
Even though he had never met him, when Li Qiang saw the very capable-looking female secretary following closely behind that person, he could already recall his name.
That's right, the person who came was none other than Tang Shengming's wife, Xu Lai, a star and movie queen known as the "eldest sister" in the film industry!
