Wu Jianye sat at the card table and asked without changing his expression: "What's going on?"
Dai Zhen said awkwardly on the other end of the phone: "Well... Chen Le and I came to Haojiang to find Shuangqing. After playing a few games in Lisboa, when we came out, Chen Le found that he had
The money and documents are lost, as well as the bank card you gave him."
When Wu Jianye heard that it was not a big deal, he said with relief, "Okay, I understand!"
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
After He Xian's death, He Hongshen has always wanted to claim the title of the real King of Haojiang, not just a simple gambling king of Haojiang. In fact, many people in later generations like to call He Hongshen the King of Haojiang.
But in fact, He Hongshen is really not the King of Haojiang. Before He Hongshen, the King of Haojiang was He Xian. After He Xian passed away, Haojiang also had its own local giants. He Hongshen has never been able to truly achieve the level of his predecessors and become a well-deserved
King of Haojiang.
However, a small matter like Chen Le is not a big deal to He Hongshen.
Wu Jianye then told He Hongshen what happened to Dai Zhen and the others.
He Hongshen said with a smile: "Director Wu, it's not interesting for you to do this. You didn't tell me that your brother went to Haojiang to play. I should have sent someone to show my loyalty to the landlord. Now things like this won't happen.
."
Wu Jianye smiled and said: "We are all children, so we can't trouble He Sheng, but I'll leave this matter to He Sheng."
He Hongshen smiled and said: "Little things."
After saying that, he made a phone call. Almost ten minutes later, Dai Zhen called and told Wu Jianye that someone had returned Chen Le's lost things, and there was an extra 100,000 Hong Kong dollars!
Wu Jianye said nonchalantly: "Here it is, just keep it. This money will be used as your expenses for playing in Haojiang."
Naturally, this money must be collected, otherwise the other party will not be able to feel at ease. Moreover, as Wu Jianye's younger brother, Chen Le had his wallet stolen. It would be difficult to explain without charging some interest.
For Wu Jianye and others, this incident was nothing more than a minor episode, but it only shocked Chen Le again.
The four people's card game lasted until dawn. When the servants of the Zheng family prepared breakfast, the four people immediately stopped playing cards. For them, this kind of self-control is the most insignificant.
After having breakfast at the Zheng family villa, Wu Jianye and the other three walked out.
"Director Wu, do you have time tonight? Why don't you let me do the hosting?" Liu Luanxiong invited Wu Jianye to talk. Liu Luanxiong had a relationship with Wu Jianye two years ago, and Wu Jianye helped him successfully survive the 1987 stock market crash.
, so every time Wu Jianye came to Xiangjiang, Liu Luanxiong would personally invite Wu Jianye.
Wu Jianye smiled and said: "Let's talk in two days. I will stay in Xiangjiang often during this period, and we will meet a lot!"
Liu Luanxiong showed a happy smile: "That's great. Director Wu will stay in Xiangjiang. I can ask Director Wu for advice if I have anything to do."
Wu Jianye clapped his hands: "I'm serious, okay, no more chatting, I'm going home first!"
Liu Luanxiong said: "Director Wu, please!"
Zheng Yutong's villa is not far from Wu Jianye's villa, just a few steps away.
After returning home, he saw that Gong Yin and others had also gotten up. Wu Jianye just chatted for a few words and went to rest.
When he woke up in the afternoon, Wu Shuangqing, Geng Xiao'e and his wife, Dai Zhen, Chen Le and others were all back in Haojiang. However, Wu Jianye didn't ask why. It was estimated that Chen Le had a shadow on Haojiang...
...
Wu Jianye smiled and asked Geng Xiao'e: "How are you doing? Are you having fun?"
Geng Xiao'e was naturally happy. To be honest, since she married Wu Shuangqing, she found that she seemed to be dreaming every day. She used to think that Wu Shuangqing was already very powerful if he had his own house, car, and job in Yanjing, but when she
After following Wu Shuangqing to Xiangjiang, they discovered that there were many surprises waiting for them.
"I'm happy, thank you uncle."
She knew that everything Wu Shuangqing had now was given by Wu Jianye, and she was naturally very grateful. Therefore, when Wu Shuangqing told Geng Xiao'e that when Wu Shuangqing went home in the future, she would not talk about Wu Jianye's affairs in Xiangjiang, and she repeatedly agreed.
Wu Shuangqing said from the side: "Uncle, we have almost finished playing. Next time, I want to see how those large supermarkets you mentioned operate."
Wu Jianye nodded: "Okay, you go ahead. Yanwen has already contacted a professional lecturer for you. He will follow you for inspections and explain the operation mode of large supermarkets. However, Xiangjiang and domestic
The situation is a little different, and you don’t have to copy Xiangjiang’s management and operation model!”
Wu Shuangqing nodded and said: "I understand!"
At this time, Chen Le came over humbly, "Brother, do you still have those membership cards in your hand? Give me one!"
Wu Jianye glanced at Dai Zhen.
Dai Zhen smiled and said, "I just taught him a lesson."
Wu Jianye sneered and said, "I taught you a lesson. I even lost my wallet when I went out with you. How embarrassed are you!"
Dai Zhen's face turned slightly red and he said, "I reminded him and told him to pay attention. Who should I blame if he didn't pay attention?"
Wu Jianye ignored him and said to Chen Le: "If you want that thing, go to Zhou Tao. I don't have it here!"
Chen Le nodded and said seriously: "That's it, I'll go find Brother Zhou Tao soon."
At this time, what Chen Lexin was thinking about most was the membership card. He also wanted to be a teacher...
Wu Jianye waved his hand and said: "Okay, if you have nothing to do, just go and do your own business. I won't need you during this time in Xiangjiang. Just remember to call me if you need anything!"
When he was in Xiangjiang, Wu Jianye mostly used Maplewood Security's bodyguards to protect his own safety. Zhou Tao used Yaoguang Group's influence in Xiangjiang to apply for gun quotas for the bodyguards of some core figures. They have
Protect and nothing will happen.
Chen Le did not leave because of Wu Jianye's words, but looked at Wu Jianye with a flattering smile and said, "Goodbye, brother, didn't you say you would take me to see Zhou Runfa?"
Wu Jianye glanced at Chen Le helplessly and said, "Let's go then. It just so happens that I have to visit their set today!"
Now Zhou Runfa is filming "The Bloody Heroes", and the director is still Wu Baige.
By the way, because the copyright of "A Better Tomorrow" does not belong to Tsui Hark's film studio, and Wu Jianye never interfered with the subsequent creation of "A Better Tomorrow", it is impossible for Wu Baige and Tsui Hark to appear.
There was a falling out due to creative ideas.
The two are still good friends now.
As for the reason why "Bleeding Heroes" was released in advance, it actually has nothing to do with Wu Jianye. The script of this movie was not provided by Wu Jianye, but because Wu Baige became famous in advance and wrote it in advance.
I wrote the script for "Bleeding Heroes", it's that simple.
After the "A Better Tomorrow" series, Wu Baige and Chow Yun-fat became golden partners in the Hong Kong film industry. Naturally, Jiang Zhiqiang supported their new film together unconditionally.
When Chen Le heard that he could join Zhou Runfa's crew, he immediately became excited.
At this time, the servants in the villa also prepared lunch for Wu Jianye. After Wu Jianye finished eating, he took Chen Le and Dai Zhen to visit the crew of "The Bloody Heroes".
The filming location of this movie was in a church in Saigon. When a few people arrived in Saigon in a car, it was already past three o'clock in the afternoon.
Outside the church, Wu Jianye saw the crew who were busy filming. Wu Jianye knew that he didn't like to be disturbed when he was filming, so when he came to the crew, he didn't go directly to interrupt their filming.
Instead, I watched them filming from a distance.
After watching it for a while, Wu Jianye knew that this was the wonderful gunfight scene that took place in the church in this movie.
Gunfights, white pigeons, and churches make this movie Wu Baige's pinnacle work.
Although in the rankings of many classic Hong Kong movies of later generations, "A Better Tomorrow" is ranked particularly high and even ranked first.
But when it comes to the shootout movie in Hong Kong, or which one is the most successful film in Wu Baige's film career, Wu Jianye still thinks it should be the current film "The Bloody Heroes".
This movie almost takes the aesthetics of violence to the extreme, and at the same time pushes Wu Baige's personal style to the extreme.
This film was even named one of the top ten Asian films of the 20th century by Time Magazine in the United States in 1999.
This movie even influenced the production of many Hollywood gunfight movies in later generations, and Wu Baige also officially entered Hollywood with this movie...
After the scene was filmed, Wu Jianye walked over, and Chen Le saw his idol, Zhou Runfa, who was wearing a white suit stained with blood, and ran over excitedly.
"Zhou...Zhou Runfa, I like your movies very much!"
These are the domestic movie fans of this era. If it were a later generation, Chen Le would probably hug Zhou Runfa and scream.
Members of the crew also saw that Chen Le came with Wu Jianye, so they did not stop Chen Le. Zhou Run laughed and said: "Thank you, thank you!"
However, Chen Le's poor Cantonese did not understand what Zhou Runfa was saying at all, and now he just kept giggling.
Wu Baige walked up to Wu Jianye and said, "Director Wu, you are here!"
Wu Jianye smiled and said: "Yes, I happened to come to Xiangjiang to do some things. I heard that you are filming here, so I came to visit the team!"
Wu Baige congratulated: "I haven't congratulated Director Wu for winning the Golden Bear Award at the Berlin Film Festival!"
Wu Jianye waved his hand and said: "It's all in the past. Are there any difficulties in this shooting?"
Wu Baige said quickly: "No, the company is very supportive of this drama."
Wu Jianye nodded: "Well, that's good!"
After a few words of greeting, Wu Jianye saw that Chen Le was asking Dai Zhen to take a photo of him and Zhou Runfa!
So he walked over with a smile. When Zhou Runfa saw Wu Jianye coming, he said happily: "Director Wu, when did you come to Xiangjiang?"
"Just arrived two days ago."
"By the way, Director Wu, this is Li Xiuran, my partner in this play!" Zhou Runfa called over to Li Xiuran who was watching them chat with some envy.
Li Xiuran came over and said excitedly: "Director Wu, I have seen all of your movies and I like them very much."
For the young people of later generations, Li Xiuran is more like the Sir in "Young and Dangerous Enter the Dragon", but Li Xiuran was also a banner in the Hong Kong film industry in the 1980s and 1990s.
Especially good at playing the role of Sir, this is actually related to Li Xiuran's early development. He didn't actually want to enter the film industry at first, but wanted to apply for the police academy, but was stopped by his mother later.
If Wu Jianye hadn't appeared, Zhou Xingchi's start in the film industry would have been brought out by Li Xiuran, and Dasha, by the way, was also discovered by Li Xiuran.
However, after Li Xiuran discovered Zhou Xingchi, he did not give Zhou Xingchi the treatment he deserved after he became famous. The two eventually fell out, and Zhou Xingchi even cursed Li Xiuran when filming "Ji Gong".
This shows how great the contradiction between the two is.
However, Dasha has always respected Li Xiuran, and was very dissatisfied with Zhou Xingchi's behavior, so this is why Dasha often appeared in Zhou Xingchi's early movies, and in the middle and later stages, the two of them were no longer together.
There is no reason for cooperation anymore.
The reason why Li Xiuyan has such respect for Wu Jianye is naturally because of Wu Jianye's influence in Hong Kong. At this time, Fengge Entertainment was the giant in the Hong Kong film industry, dominating the world. Li Xiuyan also had his own film company, regardless of
Whether it is distribution or screening, it is inseparable from the help of Fengge Entertainment.
Wu Jianye also said beautiful words: "Sir Li, you're welcome, I've seen a lot of your movies, and I personally like them very much!"
Although Wu Jianye has reached this status, he no longer needs to be so polite with them, but there is no need to show off the cool and cool middle-class style.
After Wu Jianye chatted with them for a few words on the set, he asked Wu Baige: "Do you have any other scenes today?"
Wu Baige shook his head and said: "No more, it was the last scene just now!"
Wu Jianye smiled and said: "Then I'll borrow the hair boy. I haven't seen him for a long time, just sitting among friends!"
Wu Baige: "Okay, then we won't delay Director Wu."
Zhou Runfa smiled and said: "Then I will go change clothes now!"
Then Wu Baige and Li Xiuran watched Zhou Runfa leave with Wu Jianye, with varying degrees of envy in their eyes.
On the way to the restaurant, Wu Jianye thought for a while and decided to come out anyway, so he called Liu Luanxiong, told him where he was eating, and asked him to come over too.
As for Liu Luanxiong, a stock sniper in Hong Kong who has frightened many companies, and a new Hong Kong predator, whether it would be against the law to eat with an actor like Zhou Runfa is not within the scope of Wu Jianye's consideration at all.
When Wu Jianye and others arrived at the restaurant, Liu Luanxiong was already waiting in the lobby. When he saw Wu Jianye, he immediately greeted him.
"Director Wu, the private room is ready!"
"Then go in!"
Zhou Runfa looked at Liu Luanxiong's attitude towards Wu Jianye and couldn't help but sigh. Liu Luanxiong always looked domineering when he saw his reports on weekdays. Now, such a person has become a good boy in front of Wu Jianye.
After several people arrived at the private room, Liu Luanxiong asked the waiter to serve the food.
Chen Le sat next to Zhou Runfa, and also pulled Dai Zhen to help him translate. Zhou Runfa felt a little funny when he heard that Chen Le admired him. You must know that in the entire Asian film industry, in terms of achievements, he can compare with Wu
There is no one who can compare to the night.
Now his cousin actually worships him.
In fact, this is easy to explain clearly. Wu Jianye belongs to the background. No matter how famous he is, he is only in the industry. In the hearts of movie fans, he is far less attractive than the glamorous stars.
