Two black Mercedes-Benz sedans drove into Clear Water Bay Cinemas in Kowloon. The doors opened and actress Kwan Chi-lin and a tall young man got out of the car, accompanied by many entourages.
Hong Kong's Shaw Brothers Film Company has rarely been involved in the film market since the 1990s. This Clear Water Bay Cinema is mostly used for filming TVB TV series. Another important income is leasing it to other film production groups.
Walking along the road to the studio, you can see the huge shield-shaped logo of Shaw Brothers Film Company, filled with two letters "sb" in pale gold.
Wang Yaocheng thinks this is full of joy, that is, now, who would dare to use this English mark in more than ten years?
Veterans who are full of fighting ability can spray it into a sieve and cannot take care of themselves.
Now, actress Kwan Chi-lin is participating in the filming of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes: The Sword of Madness". The male protagonist is Andy Lau, a model worker in the entertainment industry, a conscientious idol actor.
There were many staff in the studio, and most of them noticed the two conspicuous black Mercedes-Benz sedans, as well as the actress Guan Zhilin and a tall young man who got out of the car.
Stars are not uncommon in movie theaters, but this tall young man has aroused everyone's speculation.
"Uncle Yao, have you met that young boss?"
Mr. Wu Yaohan, the veteran Green Leaf owner, glanced at it casually and said;
"There are so many people in the world, how can I know everyone? When you get to work, do your work quickly, lest the director gets angry later and takes it out on you."
Mr. Wu Yaohan plays the devil in this movie. He is the mustachioed man in the "Five Lucky Stars" series of movies. His performance is vulgar and timid, and his acting skills are very sophisticated and expressive.
"Oh, then I'm going to do something."
"Remember, kid, the director will definitely not be in a good mood today, so you have to be careful."
"I know, Uncle Yao."
Sure enough, director Li Dawei's face was as dark as a pot. He raised his hand and looked at his watch. It was already 9:40 in the morning. The heroine Guan Zhilin arrived late and didn't even say hello.
"Calm down, these big stars have a lot of airs, let me talk about it."
Action director Yuan Kui patted Li Dawei on the shoulder and walked towards him.
"I'm sorry! Wang Yaocheng, I may have disturbed your work. We will leave soon, please forgive me." Wang Yaocheng clasped his hands and saluted, doing it very well.
"Mr. Wang, you're welcome. It's not easy for everyone to start work. We only have food to eat, and the big water pipes that invest money are keeping a close eye on us. No, a scene hasn't been filmed today, and the director is already unhappy.
You see, can you let Miss Guan go change her clothes first, and we can catch up later, so the problem won't be too big."
Yuan Kui is a very good person and expresses his thoughts tactfully.
"Yao Cheng..."
Guan Zhilin pouted to express her displeasure, and Wang Yaocheng patted his shoulder and said softly;
"It's not a good idea to make everyone wait for you. You'd better go change your clothes first. The flight will take you to the United States at noon. I'll watch here for a while and then leave. I won't say hello."
"Then when you come back, please call me and invite me to dinner."
"No problem. I'm going to Japan's Fusang Country next month. I'm afraid I'll have to stay for a long time. You can go and have fun."
Guan Zhilin smiled happily after hearing this and followed the makeup artist to change clothes. Yuan Kui stood aside and could only smile bitterly;
This aunt is quite difficult to serve. Her heart has never been focused on movies. 90% of her energy is spent on the big water pipes in the mansion in the middle of the mountain, and her unrivaled beauty is wasted.
"Master Yuan Kui, I like your action performance very much. The martial arts movements are crisp and neat, which makes people happy to watch."
"Thank you for your compliment, Wang Sheng. We, who were born as dragon and tiger martial arts masters, rely on this skill to make a living in the film industry and make the bosses laugh."
"I think you are pretty good and can definitely develop in Hollywood."
Wang Yaocheng's unintentional words made Yuan Kui's eyes light up, and his expression became much more passionate as he looked at it. Who doesn't want to develop in Hollywood?
In the Hong Kong film industry, only Jackie Chan, who was highly favored by Golden Harvest Film Company, once went to Hollywood to make a career, but he still failed and returned, and Golden Harvest Film Company vomited blood at the loss.
Counting further ahead is the famous kung fu movie star Bruce Lee, who once made waves in Hollywood and gained world-class fame, which is the envy of all Hong Kong filmmakers.
At this time, Hua Zai, who was in his prime, came out dressed in ancient costume, looking dashing and dashing, with a little boyish fat on his face.
As expected, he is the most handsome boy in Hong Kong Island. He is so handsome that there is nothing to say.
There was a short fat man next to him. Wang Yaocheng laughed when he saw it. Isn't this a wretched and salty guy?
Zeng Zhiwei is well-known in the Hong Kong film industry and has extensive connections. He once participated in the establishment of New Art City Film Company and is one of the Seven Monsters of New Art City. The "Best Partner" and "Happy Ghost" series of movies are their masterpieces.
.
Later, Zeng Zhiwei, Chen Kexin, and director Zhang Zhiliang jointly founded UFO Film Company.
Ufo Film Company has released popular and well-received movies such as "Sweet Honey" and "Golden Flowers". This is a very talented little fat guy, who can do weird things and make shit, and is quite active.
Yuan Kui raised his hand to greet;
"Viagra, Hua Zai, this is Wang Yaocheng, the boss of Guojiang Dragon, come and get to know him."
Wang Yaocheng smiled and shook hands with them one by one. Looking at the young faces of Andy Lau and the little fat man, it felt like decades had gone back in time. It was really embarrassing.
"Boss, you are young and wealthy. It is our honor to meet you. Please support me more when you have the opportunity!" Wei Wei smiled with all his facial features squeezed together and shook his hands desperately.
People who don't know the inside story have completely forgotten that Viagra is also the boss of a film company and a rich man worth tens of millions.
However, Andy is a bit introverted and is not as familiar as Zhi Wei.
After standing and chatting for more than ten minutes, Wang Yaocheng raised his watch and looked at it, and said sheepishly;
"It's a pleasure to meet you today. I'm really sorry. I have to catch a flight. We can only talk about it next time when we have the chance."
"Definitely, definitely."
Looking at the two black Mercedes-Benz RVs leaving, Zhiweiwei's smile faded and asked, "Yuan Kui, do you know the origin of Wang Yaocheng, the gangster who crosses the river?"
"I don't know, it was brought by our big star Miss Guan Zhilin."
"oh……"
Viagra nodded in sudden realization, "That's right. Our eldest lady is a woman whose legs weaken when she sees a wealthy family. Ordinary people will never look down upon her. She must be a wealthy boss."
Hua Tsai and Yuan Kui nodded in agreement and watched as the car drove further and further away, gradually turning into two small black dots.
May 13
About 13 noon
san francisco international airport
Luo Qianjin, who arrived earlier, had already been waiting at the airport pick-up port. He received his boss Wang Yaocheng, deputy general manager Huo Jiaguang, and assistant Cai Linlin and a group of more than ten people. He arrived in a 16-seater Toyota Coaster van.
This car is called "Costa" in the United States. Its styling has basically not changed much from that of later generations, except that its appearance is a bit angular. It is an old product launched in early 1982. Its biggest advantage is its reliable performance.
Sitting in the air-conditioned Coaster van, Luo Qianjin said;
"Chairman, should we go to dinner first? There are many authentic Chinese dishes in San Francisco, especially Cantonese restaurants. The taste of the dishes is quite authentic."
"Mr. Huo, look..."
"We all listen to the boss's arrangements and have no objection at all."
"Okay, let's go have a meal first, and then quickly stay and rest to adjust to the jet lag. We'll talk about anything tomorrow."
