One week after filming, the crew of "Dao Ma Dan" has changed the filming location and rented a large Spanish-style villa on Taiping Mountain for a daily rent of 5,000 yuan.
As soon as she entered the villa, Guan Zhilin's eyes were filled with stars and she said to herself: "I'm afraid this villa costs tens of millions."
Kang Jianfei smiled and said: "With tens of millions of dollars, it still depends on whether others can sell it. This villa has a history of more than 50 years."
Guan Zhilin walked around in the garden and looked around, and said longingly: "It would be great if I could live in a house like this one day."
Zhong Chuhong was also shocked by the luxury of this villa and said: "It's good to stay here for a few days. I guess I can't afford this kind of house in my lifetime."
Kang Jianfei smiled and said: "As long as you film well, you will definitely be able to live in a house like this in the future. Okay, let's go put on makeup and get ready."
Zhong Chuhong and Guan Zhilin ran into the big house laughing and joking, while Lin Qingxia walked in as Kang Jianfei and said: "Ah Fei, how long will it take to film in Hong Kong?"
Kang Jianfei smiled and said: "There are still a few days left. The rent here is so expensive. I won't be able to pay for it for too long."
Lin Qingxia said: "My parents have completed the immigration procedures and will go to the United States next week, so I want to take two days off to accompany them while filming in Taiwan. I wonder if I can coordinate the schedule."
Kang Jianfei thought for a while and said: "You will basically appear in the scenes in Taiwan. Let's do this. For the rest of the scenes in Hong Kong, your scenes will be filmed first, so that you can free up at least one day."
Lin Qingxia said: "If it doesn't work, forget it. After filming, I will go to the United States to see them."
"It's okay." Kang Jianfei patted her shoulder and said.
Kang Jianfei and Lin Qingxia walked side by side to the living room. The field staff were moving filming equipment under the watchful eye of the villa housekeeper, while Guan Zhilin and Zhong Chuhong were chatting with a ghost guy and a middle-aged Chinese about 40 years old.
That ghost guy is the owner of this villa. His identity seems to be the director of Jardine Matheson. He also gave himself a meaningful Chinese name of Deng Aili.
As soon as Kang Jianfei came in, Deng Aili and the middle-aged Chinese immediately turned their attention to him.
When you come to someone else's house, you naturally have to build a good relationship with the owner. Kang Jianfei walked over and reached out his hand to express his gratitude: "Thank you, Mr. Deng, for your help. Otherwise, I don't know where I would have found such a nice house for photography."
"This is just a small matter," Deng Aili said, introducing the middle-aged Chinese, "This is Mr. Li Pengfei, a member of the Legislative Council personally recruited by the Governor of Hong Kong."
"Hello, Mr. Li." Kang Jianfei shook hands with him enthusiastically, but he was muttering in his heart: Why did this foreign devil introduce Li Pengfei to him for no reason?
"Hello, Mr. Kang, I have long admired your name," Li Pengfei said with a smile, "Can we borrow a place to talk?"
Kang Jianfei looked at Deng Aili. The foreigner kept smiling. He obviously knew what Li Pengfei wanted to discuss with Kang Jianfei.
Kang Jianfei nodded and said, "Okay."
Deng Aili asked the housekeeper to take Kang Jianfei and Li Pengfei to a study room. Li Pengfei exchanged pleasantries for a while and then said: "I wonder what Mr. Kang thinks about the future of Hong Kong?"
When Kang Jianfei heard that something was wrong, he immediately laughed and said, "Mr. Li, you asked the wrong person. I am a movie maker, so how can I think about that?"
Li Pengfei said: "Mr. Kang, you now have a Hong Kong ID card and your career is in Hong Kong, so you are a Hong Konger. Hong Kong people naturally care about the future of Hong Kong, don't you think so?"
Kang Jianfei had been sitting on the chair for less than five minutes. After hearing this, he immediately stood up and said, "Mr. Li, I only care about the development of my film company and have no time to think about other things."
Li Pengfei stopped Kang Jianfei in a pleasant manner and said, "What I want to talk to you about is related to the future of Mr. Kang's company."
Kang Jianfei was still wondering why the foreign Japanese was so easy to talk to. He readily agreed to the crew renting the villa for filming. It turned out that there was another mystery. At this time, Kang Jianfei could only sigh and said: "Mr. Li, if you have anything to say, just say it.
No more going around and around.”
Li Pengfei asked: “I wonder what Mr. Kang’s views are on the separation of Hong Kong’s ‘sovereignty’ and ‘governance’?”
The idea of separating Hong Kong's sovereignty and governance was proposed by the British government to China last year and was recognized by Hong Kong's upper class and many elites. However, not many ordinary Hong Kong people care about this.
Kang Jianfei said perfunctorily: "Haha, I still say the same thing, I am an entertainment businessman. I am not interested in these things."
Li Pengfei said: "On the contrary, Mr. Kang is in the entertainment industry, so he should be more concerned about this. If the mainland takes back Hong Kong, the policies there will change. Can your film company still be open?"
Kang Jianfei shook his head and said: "This kind of thing is too big, I dare not express it, otherwise I will be stigmatized in the future."
Li Pengfei thought that Kang Jianfei had already made a move, and continued to enlighten: "As a Chinese, I also hope to see the reunification of the motherland. But as long as the sovereignty is unified, that will be enough. The British government has admitted that China will take back the sovereignty of Hong Kong, but the governance of Hong Kong has not been
We cannot let the mainland take it back. The Communist Party has no ability to manage Hong Kong well. You and I are both people with property in Hong Kong. Once the governance of Hong Kong is taken back, we will all be communist."
If Kang Jianfei hadn't been a time traveler, he might have been frightened by this person. After all, he now has a net worth of over 100 million, so why should he be frightened by this?
Now that the conversation had begun, Kang Jianfei was not in a hurry to leave. He sat back in his chair and asked: "I'm curious. I'm just the owner of a small company. Mr. Li, are you a business elite of a large company or a member of the Legislative Council?
Why are you telling me this?"
Li Pengfei then explained the purpose of his visit: "This is how it is. I am going to call together the young elites of Hong Kong's business community and organize a 'young talent group' to go to Beijing to petition the Chinese government to separate Hong Kong's sovereignty and governance."
In Kang Jianfei's heart, ten thousand grass-mud horses were running wildly, and he thought, why are you dragging me along if you want to die? Then he smiled perfunctorily: "How can I be considered a young talent? I don't dare to go to Beijing, you know I am fleeing to Hong Kong.
Those who came here are afraid of being arrested by the police when they go back."
"Mr. Kang, you are now a Hong Konger, and the mainland does not dare to arrest you," Li Pengfei continued to persuade, "My 'Young Talent Group' has currently gathered 18 people from the real estate, transportation, manufacturing, financial industries, etc.
All the elites from other fields have joined us, all we need is an elite from the film and entertainment industry."
Kang Jianfei smiled and said: "In the film and entertainment industry, Daheng Shao and Boss Zou are the big shots, and I am just a little guy."
Li Pengfei said: "Mr. Kang, don't say that. Your influence in the film industry is no worse than these two. Moreover, my group has gathered young talents. Shao Daheng and Boss Zou are too old."
Kang Jianfei showed a troubled expression and said, "But I'm filming a movie now, and I won't be able to leave for a while."
"Our young talent group is preparing to enter Beijing at the end of May. By then, your movie should have been almost completed," Li Pengfei said, "and as long as Mr. Kang joins this group, Oriental DreamWorks will no longer have to
I am no longer worried about funds. Jardine Matheson and HSBC will promise to provide Mr. Kang with an ultra-low-interest mortgage loan of less than 30 million per year within three years, which is almost the same as borrowing for free."
Kang Jianfei thought for a moment and asked: "This young talent group is also sponsored by HSBC and Jardine Matheson?"
Li Pengfei smiled and said: "Absolutely, and I can guarantee that we will be able to see Deng directly after arriving in Beijing, and our trip will not be in vain."
If Kang Jianfei was a fanatical patriot or an angry youth, he would probably scold Li Pengfei angrily and then lead the crew out of this disgusting villa.
But Bitch Fei is not that high-minded. He is ready to agree temporarily and finish filming the scenes in the villa first. It would be too troublesome to find another villa. Wait until that young talent group sets off to Beijing to petition.
His mother was just pretending to be sick. There was no way Li Pengfei would kidnap him to Beijing.
Compared with having no integrity, Kang Jianfei is not inferior to these traitors and devils.
Kang Jianfei immediately smiled and said: "No problem, let me know when you are leaving. I will go filming first."
Li Pengfei smiled and said, "Mr. Kang is indeed a smart man."
Kang Jianfei and Li Pengfei walked downstairs together chatting and laughing, but secretly laughing in their hearts: Of course I am a smart man, only a fool would go to Beijing with you to seek death.
"Hurry up, don't move the furnishings in the living room, and ask the housekeeper to put away all the valuables..." Kang Jianfei returned to the living room and ignored Li Pengfei, instructing the crew to get busy.
Deng Aili walked up to Li Pengfei and asked in a low voice: "How was the discussion?"
Li Pengfei smiled and said, "He has already agreed."
Deng Aili nodded and said: "Very good, he is the 19th one. We can recruit another one to make up the 20 and we can set off."
Li Pengfei said: "I can definitely get 20 together. But I feel that Kang Jianfei is perfunctory with me and will probably regret it before setting off."
Deng Aili frowned and said, "Since he wants to go back on his word, why does he still agree to you now?"
Li Pengfei smiled and said: "I don't have to guess why he agreed to it. I just need to make him have to go to Beijing with me."
Kang Jianfei was happily filming in the villa, but unfortunately his good mood was ruined by a newspaper five days later.
Li Pengfei's gray grandson, after convening 20 young business elites, immediately published a big propaganda in the newspaper. He said that for the future prosperity of Hong Kong, sovereignty and governance must be separated, and returning sovereignty to China would be worthy of the ancestors.
Hong Kong must be managed by the British.
The flow of information at this time was extremely poor, and ordinary people in Hong Kong also had many misunderstandings about the mainland government. Combined with various movements in the previous decades, this propaganda actually aroused the approval of many Hong Kong citizens.
And the list of Lao Shizi's "Youth Talent Group" also appeared in the newspaper news, and Kang Jianfei's name was prominently on the list.
Kang Jianfei threw the newspaper out with a livid face and cursed loudly: "Li Pengfei, you idiot, I will wipe out your 18th generation ancestor!" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian () to vote for recommendation,
