After coming out of the company, Kang Jianfei was shocked when he saw the car driven by Pan Yingzi. It was actually a Mustang muscle car that was quite popular in the 1960s and 1970s. He couldn't help but joked: "Ms. Pan's car is really unique.
!”
"It's okay." Pan Yingzi replied casually, feeling quite uncomfortable in her heart.
In fact, this Mustang car belongs to Chen Honglie.
In Hong Kong in the 1960s, only handsome martial arts boys were popular, but Pan Yingzi's husband Chen Honglie became famous as a villain. Before marriage, Chen Honglie was a playboy. When he was most prosperous, he lived in a mansion in Waterloo Road, trading sports cars and women.
He is equally diligent and has tried everything from the British antique MG to the powerful Lotus, Audi, and BMW sports cars. He once had the feat of flying from Sha Tin to Tsim Sha Tsui Pier in seven minutes - there were no highways and tunnels back then.
Pan Yingzi also enjoyed two years of happiness after marrying Chen Honglie, and she took a break from acting to help Chen Honglie manage his own film company. Unfortunately, the good times did not last long, and several movies invested by the company failed to hit the market. In the end, Chen Honglie had to sell off his properties to replenish the company.
loopholes.
Pan Yingzi's own car was sold at that time, and now all that is left at home is a small villa and this Mustang muscle car. Pan Yingzi was so embarrassed that she had to come out to work in movies to make ends meet.
After getting on the bus, Kang Jianfei asked: "Where to eat?"
Pan Yingzi blurted out subconsciously: "The Peninsula Hotel, it's not far from here."
The Peninsula Hotel’s tea restaurant is a popular place for Hong Kong’s high-end filmmakers. It has become a trend, and the Chinese and Western restaurants of the Peninsula Hotel are also often visited by filmmakers. I think Pan Yingzi often went to the Peninsula Hotel in the past.
, so when Kang Jianfei asked, she casually named the Peninsula Hotel.
What Kang Jianfei is thinking now is that every time he goes out to eat with a beautiful woman, he always has a woman drive the car. How shameless!
The car quickly drove to the downstairs of the Peninsula Hotel. Kang Jianfei took out a 10 Hong Kong dollar and gave it to the parking boy, and asked Pan Yingzi, "What can I eat?"
Pan Yingzi thought for a while and said, "Let's have some Western food. I haven't had Western food in a long time."
Before Kang Jianfei and Pan Yingzi took a few steps, they saw a hurried figure. They came to the boy who had just helped them park the car and said, "Brother, you should also resign and go to the wireless training class. Parking can make more money."
Not much money."
The parking boy said angrily: "If you hadn't offended my boss, would I have been reduced to parking?"
Kang Jianfei heard the man's voice, turned around suddenly, smiled at the man and said, "Tang Zhenye!"
Tang Zhenye turned around when he heard the sound, and his expression changed when he saw it was Kang Jianfei, then he smiled awkwardly and said: "A Fei, ah no, hello Mr. Kang!"
Kang Jianfei pointed at the parking boy and asked, "Is this your brother?"
Tang Zhenye quickly introduced: "Yes, this is my brother Tang Zhenzong."
"Your brother is much calmer. Learn more from him." Kang Jianfei said without hesitation, and led Pan Yingzi into the door of the Peninsula Hotel.
After the two left, Tang Zhenzong asked his younger brother: "Aye, do you know these two? That woman seems to be Pan Yingzi who acted in "The Famous Sword"."
Tang Zhenye sighed and said: "Oh, that man is Kang Jianfei. Not only do I know him, but a few months ago we were brothers on the set of Clear Water Bay, and we did odd jobs and ate box lunches together. He is now prosperous and has become the boss of a film company. I
He’s still a second-rate actor that no one knows.”
Tang Zhenzong was quite dissatisfied with Kang Jianfei and said: "This man is really a man. He doesn't take care of his old friends even when he is rich. He is not worthy of close friendship."
"Oh, I offended him." Tang Zhenye has been regretting it ever since "Happy Ghost" was released. He turned down the second male lead in "Happy Ghost" because of an ordinary role. Thinking about it now, it is simply stupid.
downright.
But who would have thought that a movie made by a mainlander who had just arrived in Hong Kong would cause a sensation?
Not only Tang Zhenye, but now many people on the Shaw Brothers studio regret it to death, especially the fat man who was replaced by Xu Ke.

"Do you know that person just now?" Pan Yingzi asked in the elevator.
Kang Jianfei said: "An old friend who we don't see often."
The elevator door opened, and Pan Yingzi took Kang Jianfei to the Western restaurant with ease. She walked into the restaurant, but Kang Jianfei behind was stopped by the hotel waiter.
The waiter leaned forward and said, "Sorry sir, you are not allowed in if you are not dressed properly."
"My clothes are disheveled, are you talking about me?" Kang Jianfei lowered his head and carefully inspected his clothes, but found no clothes that were disheveled.
The waiter reminded: "Sir, you are not wearing a tie?"
Damn it! Not wearing a tie means you are disheveled. What kind of bullshit rule is this?
Kang Jianfei was not low-level enough to quarrel with the waiter in the restaurant, so he said angrily: "Please lend me a tie."
"Please wait a moment!" The waiter ran away politely.
Pan Yingzi smiled apologetically at Kang Jianfei and said, "Sorry, I saw you were wearing a suit and didn't notice the tie problem."
"Nothing," Kang Jianfei asked jokingly, "I just came from the mainland and haven't seen much of the world. Are all Western restaurants in Hong Kong regulated like this?"
"Not necessarily, everyone has their own rules," Pan Yingzi said jokingly, "Fortunately you have never seen the world, otherwise your first movie wouldn't have a box office of tens of millions, no matter what, you have to have a
50000000."
Kang Jianfei smiled and said: "Don't worry, there will be a time when it breaks 50 million."
Pan Yingzi thought Kang Jianfei was joking, so she also laughed and said: "Then I wish your movie will get 50 million box office as soon as possible."
The waiter ran over slowly, holding a green tie that didn't match Kang Jianfei's suit, and said, "Sir, this is the tie you want."
"Thank you!" Kang Jianfei felt that the waiter was deliberately playing tricks on him, so he wrapped the tie around his neck in displeasure, tied it up like a red scarf, took Pan Yingzi's hand and walked into the restaurant.
Pan Yingzi was held by Kang Jianfei's hand without any warning. She was not angry because of it. Instead, she tilted her head and looked at Kang Jianfei's tie in a funny way, trying not to laugh out loud.
The two of them found a table by the window and sat down, ordered their meals and started chatting.
After all, Pan Yingzi also worked as a housekeeper for a film company for several years, and was very familiar with some things in the Hong Kong and Taiwan film circles. After a small chat, Kang Jianfei learned a lot of useful things from Pan Yingzi.
After chatting for a while, Kang Jianfei suddenly had an idea and asked, "What are Ms. Pan's future plans?"
Pan Ying held the red wine glass elegantly in her hand and said helplessly: "What are your plans? It's just to make some movies to make a living."
Kang Jianfei vaguely remembered that Pan Yingzi became famous again two or three years later while filming a TV series in Taiwan. At this moment, Pan Yingzi obviously has no plans to go to Taiwan for development. He said: "I don't know what Ms. Pan's impression of my company is.
?”
"It's very promising." Pan Yingzi said the unintentional words calmly. In her opinion, there are not 100 but 50 small film companies like Kang Jianfei in Hong Kong. If one film becomes popular, maybe the next one will be released.
The movie hit the streets and disappeared from the film industry in an instant. Of course, Kang Jianfei was a director highly praised by Princess Jin, which was better than other small companies.
Kang Jianfei didn't care whether what she said was true or not, and directly extended the invitation: "The position of Artist Department Manager of my company is vacant, and I just need someone like Ms. Pan who is very familiar with the industry."
"Artist Department?" Pan Yingzi then took Kang Jianfei's Oriental Dream Factory seriously. Many independent film companies, except for the bosses, from directors to actors, were all put together temporarily, with few regular employees.
What kind of artist department is there? Only big companies like Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest have serious artist departments.
Pan Yingzi used to run a film company with her husband, but they struggled for several years without signing any actors. So now she is very surprised by Kang Jianfei's ambition, which obviously positions the company as a large film company in the future!
Kang Jianfei smiled and said: "How about it, Miss Pan, are you interested? As long as you nod, the position of Artist Department Manager is yours."
Pan Yingzi shook the red wine glass, and the light reflected by the red wine reflected on her face, making the skin on her face more and more crystal clear, white and rosy, and Kang Jianfei was stunned for a while. Just looking at the smooth and delicate texture of the skin,
Pan Yingzi, a young woman in her early 30s, is actually better than girls like Li Saifeng and Wen Bixia.
Pan Yingzi kept silent as she considered Kang Jianfei's invitation. Kang Jianfei was not in a hurry either. The beauty in front of him was delicious. He stared at Pan Yingzi and admired it carefully.
Pan Yingzi took a sip of red wine. She didn't know whether it was because of the alcohol or because she was shy because of Kang Jianfei's hot eyes. Two red clouds flew up on her face and she suddenly smiled and said: "Okay, it just so happens that I don't know what will happen next."
What should I do? Thank you Mr. Kang for giving me a job."
After the serious business was settled, the conversation became more relaxed. The two chatted nonstop for half an hour before finally settling the bill and leaving.
When going downstairs, due to the stamina of the red wine, Pan Yingzi walked a little unsteadily. Kang Jianfei took advantage of her staggered position, stretched out his hand to support her waist, and said with concern: "Miss Pan, are you okay?
How about I take you back?"
"It's okay." Pan Yingzi's eyes were a little blurry, but her consciousness was still clear. She was not an alcoholic, but she had been very irritable recently. She had just completed the divorce procedures with her husband a few days ago, and she was very emotional.
Had two drinks.
Kang Jianfei asked: "How about I take you back? It's very unsafe for you to drive like this."
Pan Yingzi didn't refuse anymore and leaned into Kang Jianfei's arms and acquiesced.
