"Sister, sister, I've hidden it, come to me quickly!"
"Haha, you are hiding here again, you are so stupid..."
"..."
Kang Jiachun was caught by her sister Kang Zhenqi within seconds. This little girl, who was only 2 years and 16 days old, could only hide behind her mother and aunt.
Ye Zipei arrived in Hong Kong the night before yesterday and spent a day with her third uncle Ye Xueping to celebrate the festival. When she arrived at No. 4 Repulse Bay, she happened to see four children happily playing hide and seek.
"Hello, Sister Qingxia, I'm a fan of your movies. I didn't expect you to be more beautiful in real life than in the movies."
"Sister Azhi, your performance in "Shanghai on the Beach" was very popular in the Mainland."
"Sister Azi, I have admired your name for a long time and have long wanted to look like a strong woman. I have a record company in the Mainland, and two of the signed singers in the company are from Oriental Entertainment Agency."
"Sister Fengjiao..."
Before Kang Jianfei could make an introduction, Ye Zipei started chatting with the other four women. She spoke better than she sang. Although it was the first time they met, they soon became like good sisters, and Lin Qingxia
, Zhao Yazhi, Lin Fengjiao and Pan Yingzi chatted animatedly.
Seeing this, Kang Jianfei happily wanted to hold the pretty widow in his arms and kiss her hard. Before Ye Zipei came, the atmosphere at home seemed harmonious. In fact, everyone felt a little awkward, but Ye Zipei became familiar with it.
The gap in everyone's heart was quickly eliminated with the opening of his mouth - at least at the moment, the women were all chatting happily.
If they are women who have just followed Kang Jianfei, they may still be jealous. But for these women in their thirties, they have been following Kang Jianfei for nearly ten years and have long been accustomed to his philandering. And now they all have children.
.Except for the fact that Kang Jianfei can't always be by their side, everyone else is quite satisfied. They don't expect to get married, so it's good to maintain the status quo.
"How many months have Zipei been pregnant?" Lin Fengjiao asked, looking at Zipei's slightly bulging belly.
Mentioning the child in her belly, Ye Zipei became happy and said: "It has been more than 4 months since Ah Fei last filmed in the Mainland. I was pregnant when I went to see him. I came to Hong Kong this time to have the baby, and the Mainland
The atmosphere is not that open, and it would not be good for me as a widow to be pregnant."
Lin Qingxia said: "That's just right. Fengjiao and I are not planning to go to the United States again this time when we return to Hong Kong. We can move around more in the future."
Pan Yingzi said: "Azhi and I opened a health care center. We can usually do maintenance and practice yoga together."
Zhao Yazhi smiled and said: "Yes. Usually it's just me and A'Zi. It'll be more lively when you guys come here."
The five women chatted happily, but Kang Jianfei was left alone. This harmonious atmosphere suddenly made Kang Jianfei feel very strange. After all, they were also love rivals. No matter how generous they were, they didn't need to talk to their long-lost sisters.
Just the same.
The four little kids were still playing hide-and-seek happily, running around the house laughing and joking, and the five women also laughed from time to time. This gave Kang Jianfei a feeling of super happiness as he had a group of wives and concubines, and a house full of children and grandchildren.
The maids who cooked at home were all kicked off their jobs. The five women cooked the food themselves, and Ye Zipei, who had begun to show her pregnancy, remained unchanged. She also helped them by the side.
A sumptuous meal was put on the table, and just as he was about to eat, Hu Juncai and Ye Zishan came over to eat.
Ye Zishan has been working at Xinhua News Agency's Hong Kong branch for a year. She returned to Beijing during the Spring Festival and spent New Year's Eve, and then immediately rushed back to Hong Kong to work. This time she heard that her cousin was coming to Hong Kong and found out where she would stay from her third uncle.
I brought my husband over to join in the fun.
As a result, after entering the house, the scene of five women and four children sitting at a table made Ye Yeshan dumbfounded.
Hu Juncai originally only admired Kang Jianfei's ability to pick up girls, but now it has been directly upgraded to reverence. This is simply unbelievable, okay?
"Ah Cai and Ah Shan are here, sit down quickly, we are just about to start dinner." Kang Jianfei stood up with a smile, and then began to introduce them to each other.
Ye Zishan looked at the girls. Although she felt sorry for her cousin, she couldn't show it. She smiled and said, "I came over as soon as I finished work. It seems like I came at the right time. There are so many delicious food."
What Hu Juncai was thinking about was that it seemed that he would need to give more red envelopes to children in the future.
After eating, the women gathered together to chat. Hu Juncai hugged Kang Jiachun and Kang Jiale and forced them to say, "Afei, this is your fault. Your nephews and nieces have grown so big, and you didn't even tell your buddies."
.”
Kang Jianfei laughed and said, "Won't this save you a red envelope?"
Hu Juncai chatted a little about the tourism projects in Shaozhou, and then said: "By the way, Ah Fei, the Asian Games Organizing Committee has asked Zishan and the Xinhua News Agency to send you an invitation to attend the opening ceremony of the Asian Games."
"Invite me to sing the opening song?" Kang Jianfei joked.
"Of course they are the guests at the opening ceremony." Hu Juncai said in a low voice, "All major national leaders will be present. The only invited guests from Hong Kong are you and Mr. Huo."
"It seems that I have a lot of face." Kang Jianfei laughed. In fact, he knew very well that the main reason why he was invited to the ceremony was because he donated a lot of money. It had nothing to do with his face. He
He and Huo Daheng donated more than 200 million Hong Kong dollars one after another. In addition to Huo Daheng's one-time donation of 100 million Hong Kong dollars to build the Asian Games swimming pool, other sporadic donations also amounted to 20 to 30 million Hong Kong dollars. Kang Jianfei's several donations added up to
100 million yuan.
The generosity of the two people is no longer as simple as "patriotic capitalists". When the Asian Games application was successful in 1990, China's reform and opening up had not been carried out for a few years, and the country was so poor that the construction of Asian Games venues required public donations. Kang Jianfei and Huo Daheng
The more than 200 million yuan can be said to be a timely help, and the Asian Games Organizing Committee invited them to be guests of the ceremony.
Just as she was talking, Ye Zishan came over and sat down next to her husband, and said with a smile: "Brother Fei, your movie is a hit again this time, how about I give you an exclusive interview?"
Kang Jianfei said: "There are so many publications sponsored by Xinhua News Agency. They don't seem to care much about movies."
Ye Zishan said: "I don't care about ordinary movies, but Brother Fei, your movie is different. Just treat it as helping me complete my work tasks."
"Okay. When will the interview be conducted?" Kang Jianfei asked.
"That's it for now. I'll ask the photographer to take another photo some other time." Ye Zishan said with a smile.
Kang Jianfei asked: "What are you talking about? Your interview should have a central meaning."
Ye Zishan took out a handheld recorder and said, "Just treat it as a chat with friends, then what can we do officially?"
Kang Jianfei smiled and said, "It's not official yet. The interview equipment is all ready."
"Then let me start," Ye Yeshan turned on the tape recorder and said. "Hello, Director Kang, how did you first come up with the idea of creating an unpopular subject like "Tomb Raiders Notes"?"
Kang Jianfei pointed at Hu Juncai and said: "Your husband was there at the time, and we went to visit the Yin Ruins. Seeing so many unearthed cultural relics and tombs, I suddenly had the idea to make a movie about ancient tombs. In fact, I wrote it first
It was a script, but later I found that a movie could not fully express my thoughts, so I decided to write it first."
Ye Zishan asked again: "Why are you so familiar with these tomb robbing terms such as bucket fighting, moving mountains, rice dumplings, and black donkey hooves?"
Kang Jianfei smiled and said: "It's very simple. No one can be omniscient and omnipotent. People who have creative experience, except those who write about their own life experiences, all know to collect information. Before I create, I consulted professionals in this field
, plus some folklore, the book "Tomb Robbers' Notes" was born."
Ye Yeshan asked: "Can you reveal the name of the professional? He is also a tomb robber?"
Kang Jianfei shook his head: "Sorry, I have to keep this a secret."
"Okay then," Ye Yeshan changed the subject. "Let's talk about the movie "Tomb Raiders". I heard that within 10 days of its release, the box office of "Tomb Raiders" has exceeded 20 million. Director Kang can predict
Can you estimate how much this movie will earn at the Hong Kong box office?"
Kang Jianfei said: "Judging from the current box office curve, it is probably over 40 million. Although this movie has a strong box office momentum at the beginning, the Hong Kong film market is too small after all, and the box office drop in the next two or three weeks should be huge."
Ye Yeshan said: "The box office of 40 million is very impressive. There seem to be only two or three Hong Kong movies with a box office of over 40 million. Before it was released, did Director Kang think that the box office of "Tomb Raiders" would be so good?"
"The production cost of my movie was HK$130 million." Kang Jianfei did not answer directly, but talked about the cost with a smile.
"In other words, Director Kang was very confident about the box office from the beginning?" Ye Zishan asked.
Kang Jianfei asked: "I wonder if Ms. Ye has watched the movie "Terminator 2"?"
Ye Yeshan was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "I've seen it. The global box office of "Terminator 2" is hundreds of millions of dollars. I heard that Director Kang also invested in that movie?"
"Why did "Terminator 2" get such a high box office?" Kang Jianfei continued to ask.
Ye Zishan was completely grasped by Kang Jianfei and answered subconsciously: "It's a very creative science fiction movie, and the special effects are very realistic."
"That's right, creativity and special effects," Kang Jianfei snapped his fingers and said with a smile, "Then Miss Ye will look back at "Tomb Raiders Notes"."
Ye Zishan suddenly realized: "I understand, "Tomb Raiders" is also a unique idea of the tomb robbing genre, coupled with luxurious and realistic special effects, it has the same blockbuster factors as "Terminator 2"."
Kang Jianfei said: "That's it. I think computer special effects will play an increasingly important role in future movies. Now more and more directors in Hollywood pay attention to computer special effects, but unfortunately, most colleagues in Hong Kong seem to have little regard for them.
This is not of interest."
Ye Zishan's mind was spinning quickly and she asked, "Is Director Kang planning to promote computer special effects in Hong Kong?"
Kang Jianfei shook his head and said: "It's difficult. Hollywood film companies rely on North America, the world's largest box office market, and only some powerful companies dare to invest in high-cost computer special effects films. Hong Kong film companies have inherent shortcomings in this regard.
If you are not careful, you will lose money.”
This interview really had no theme. Ye Yeshan kept talking about whatever she thought of and asked: "What does Mr. Kang think of the development of Hong Kong films?"
Kang Jianfei said sternly: "Now everyone's consensus is that Hong Kong films have entered an unprecedented golden period, and the number of film practitioners in Hong Kong has reached tens of thousands. This is very scary in Hong Kong with a population of only more than 5 million.
ratio. But what I see is a crisis, and I think the future of Hong Kong films is worrying."
"Oh, why did Director Kang say that?" Ye Zishan asked curiously.
Kang Jianfei raised a finger: "First of all, Hong Kong, the Eastern Hollywood, does not have a complete film industry system like Hollywood. Let's put it this way, the foundation behind the current prosperity of Hong Kong films is actually very fragile. The director's power is too great
, not only the screenwriters, but also the producers sometimes become decorations. Also, the production of Hong Kong films is very random and there is no strict production process. This is extremely unscientific. Compared with big Hollywood companies, it is like a workshop.
and the difference between modern factories. Secondly, with the expansion and prosperity of overseas markets, the average production cycle of Hong Kong films has been shortened by more than half compared to five years ago. What does this mean? It means that many directors and companies are eager to make money by making films and produce shoddy films.
Once the films are produced, the overall quality of Hong Kong films is declining rapidly. With the above two hidden dangers, once the overseas market for Hong Kong films changes or encounters strong competitors, big problems will definitely occur."
From the problems hidden in the boom of Hong Kong films, Kang Jianfei has been talking about the reform of DreamWorks and his own concept of a diversified entertainment group. He carefully analyzed the development model of Oriental Culture and Entertainment Group and even pointed out some of the group's shortcomings.
Ye Zishan originally wanted Kang Jianfei to talk about something casually today, but she didn't expect that he would actually spit out so much useful information. She thought Kang Jianfei talked so much because of his relationship with friends, so Ye Zishan's impression of Kang Jianfei improved a lot.
In fact, what Kang Jianfei said was meant for people like Zou Wenhuai, Huang Baiming, and Pan Dickson. He is not afraid of competition from his peers, but he is afraid that after the overall decline of Hong Kong films, DreamWorks will be left alone.
Ye Zishan got the wonderful interview content and took Hu Juncai home.
After the four children fell asleep, Kang Jianfei walked into Zhao Ya's room. The two kissed in the dark for a while, and then Kang Jianfei walked out with the beauty on his side.
Zhao Yazhi didn't pay attention at first, because she often served Kang Jianfei with Pan Yingzi, and thought she would take her to Pan Yingzi's room again this time.
It wasn't until Kang Jianfei pressed her onto a woman's body and asked them to caress each other that Zhao Yazhi felt something was wrong.
The same was true for Lin Qingxia. She thought Kang Jianfei had brought Lin Fengjiao in, but she hugged Zhao Yazhi and kissed her for a while, only to realize that it was someone else lying on her body.
At this time, Kang Jianfei had already held Zhao Yazhi's plump buttocks and entered her body from behind. Zhao Yazhi and Lin Qingxia could only make mistakes and let Kang Jianfei spend a ridiculous night. (To be continued...) u
