He originally thought that when Shi Zhijian brought him in, he would sit with those celebrities and gentlemen from the upper class. After all, Shi Zhijian was a businessman and a friend of the Third Young Master, so he was fully qualified to take advantage of the opportunity to break into Hong Kong's upper class circles.
Maybe Yan Xiong can take the opportunity to get to know more high-ranking people.
No one knows better than Yan Xiong how strict the class hierarchy is in Hong Kong. The rich and tycoons are on one level, the ghosts are on another level, the politicians are on another level, and the elites are on another level. Although he is one of the four detectives in Hong Kong, he is not qualified.
He infiltrated into the upper class circle, because in the eyes of those upper class people, Yan Xiong was just a security captain, similar to a watchdog.
Yan Xiong also has self-awareness and has never dared to go beyond it, but tonight is a good opportunity.
But he didn't expect that Shi Zhijian would bring him here to sit with Zhang Jiuding, an old Jianghu who was about to retire.
Yan Xiong felt disappointed at first, but immediately changed his mind.
Looking at the gray-haired Zhang Jiuding, he was once a powerful figure in the world. He single-handedly founded Hongyihai and led Hongyihai to compete with other organizations.
Now that I am older and abandoned by the times, I can only stay at home to practice boxing and accompany my little wife.
The world has forgotten his character.
No one will give him face or respect him anymore.
Even if you attend such a banquet, you will be isolated and sit alone.
Yan Xiong couldn't help but feel something in his heart, what if he was old? What if he retired? Would he be even more miserable than him?!
Thinking of this, Yan Xiong was no longer disappointed as before. Instead, he began to appreciate Shi Zhijian's behavior. He couldn't help but have a good impression of Shi Zhijian in his heart. This young man at least valued love and justice.
After Yan Xiong sat down, he also greeted Zhang Jiuding with a smile: "Master Ding, I didn't expect to see you here. You are so old and strong!"
Zhang Jiuding didn't expect that Yan Xiong, one of the four detectives, would be so polite. He clasped his hands and said, "You're welcome, I just exercise regularly!"
"Really? If you have any secret recipe, you should teach it to me!"
Yan Xiong and Zhang Jiuding were chatting enthusiastically here, while Shi Zhijian crossed his legs comfortably, sipping beer and smoking cigarettes, rarely having a moment of leisure.
At this moment, the stage lights brightened and everyone knew that the stage performance was about to begin.
…
In this era, the most popular way for nightclubs to attract people is stage performances.
In the past, Lichi Nightclub spent a lot of money to invite film industry beauty Xia Meng to perform at the venue in order to warm up the venue.
In this era, celebrities do not lose face or lose their worth in nightclubs. On the contrary, being invited to perform on a big stage can prove that you are popular and important enough.
The same is true tonight. In order to enhance the scene and make the stage lively, Xu Shixun invited Feng Baobao, the youngest sister in "Shaw Brothers Seven Princesses", to perform on stage.
Feng Baobao was wearing a sequined costume, with wavy hair behind her back. She stood in front of the accompaniment band. As the lights flashed, she began to sing: "Rose is the most delicate, rose is the most gorgeous, spring and summer bloom on the branches."
, rose rose I love you, rose rose is full of affection, rose rose is full of affection..."
This is a very good Hong Kong love song. Shi Zhijian heard it countless times in his previous life. Now listening to Feng Baobao's passionate interpretation of it live, it has a different feeling in his heart.
Stage performances generally have a saying that the leader is the leader and the phoenix is the tail. The one who sings at the beginning should be able to shake the audience, and the one who appears at the end should be able to suppress the audience.
Therefore, Feng Baobao's song "Rose Rose I Love You" is of great significance.
Fortunately, the name of "Shaw Brothers Seven Princesses" is not hidden. When Feng Baobao finished singing this song, the audience immediately burst into cheers.
As the performance warmed up, Feng Baobao sang three songs in one breath.
After she stepped off the stage, a fashionable band composed of young people from Hong Kong came on stage, but they imitated the most popular band "The Beatles" and sang "Yesterday" and "She Loves You".
The Beatles' music is generally very melodious and tactful, and it is obviously prepared for the ghosts who are invited.
When the music started playing, those ghost guys would hold their wine glasses and slowly shake to the rhythm.
Some other gentlemen who considered themselves members of the upper class and could understand English also swayed behind the scenes with Gui Lao, and they did not forget to comment: "Singing is so good!"
As a veteran, Zhang Jiuding didn't understand this. He frowned, looked at the nondescript singers with long hair and bell-bottoms, and muttered: "What a ghost?!"
…
Shi Zhijian listened to the song, sipped the beer, and was about to continue being the second shopkeeper, but he saw Xu Shixun running over with a joyful expression. He first greeted Yan Xiong and Zhang Jiuding, then pulled Shi Zhijian to stand up and said: "Ajian, I
Let me take you to meet someone!"
"Who do you know? Even though I'm pretty, you don't have to drag me to accompany guests, right?"
"Come with me! You'll know when we get there!"
Shi Zhijian had no choice but to be dragged to the backstage by Xu Shixun.
The backstage is where the actors rest, and ordinary people are not allowed in, except of course the boss.
Shi Zhijian followed Xu Shixun into the backstage, and saw that the backstage looked pretty. Some actors and actresses were touching up their makeup in front of the dressing mirror, and the female star Feng Baobao, who had just come on stage, was drinking snow pear tea to clear her throat. Shi Zhijian directly recommended to the other party: "Shi Zhijian
The Shifu brand rock sugar snow pear is worth choosing!”
Feng Baobao was startled for a moment and looked at Shi Zhijian who was being pulled away by Xu Shixun, wondering if he had heard correctly.
Soon, Xu Shixun pulled Shi Zhijian to an independent room, and then winked at Shi Zhijian to tell him not to be too surprised. Then he reached out and knocked on the door, "Hello, I am Xu Shixun, can you come in?
?”
A voice like an oriole's cry came from the single room: "Wait a moment, I'm applying makeup."
Xu Shixun smiled and turned back to Shi Zhijian and said, "Don't say I'm not interesting enough. You are also the second boss here. I'll introduce her to you!"
"Here, look at how beautiful you are!"
Before Xu Shixun could answer, he heard a squeak, the door to the single room opened, and a pretty face as bright as a hibiscus appeared in front of Shi Zhijian.
"Hello, my name is Nie Yongqin!"
…
Nie Yongqin?
Shi Zhijian remembered.
It seems that she is some kind of "Queen of Kowloon". When Xu Shixun signed her for 500,000 yuan, he also borrowed money from himself.
It’s very grand and I don’t know how beautiful it is!
Shi Zhijian looked at the other party carefully. This look didn't matter. There was a trace of surprise on his face: "Why is it you?"
The beautiful girl in front of me turned out to be the mysterious woman who rented on the third floor of her house.
Nie Yongqin also recognized Shi Zhijian, "Uh, why is it you?"
Xu Shixun was embarrassed, "What, do you know each other?"
Xu Shixun has always been very active in introducing Nie Yongqin to Shi Zhijian in order to prove how high his vision is and how accurate his vision is.
But he never expected that Shi Zhijian would actually know Nie Yongqin.
At this moment, Shi Zhijian and Nie Yongqin, a handsome man and a pretty girl, looked at each other with big eyes and small eyes.
It seems that the relationship between the two is not simple. One has a surprised look on his face, and the other's beautiful eyes are widened.
Xu Shixun didn't know why, but there was a surge of jealousy in his heart.
