Chapter 88 Zongheng
Chapter 88 Zongheng
As the saying goes, fortunes change every thirty years.
But where are you going to find thirty years?
In 2002, Zhang Yimou's film "Hero" slapped the entire Hong Kong entertainment industry in the face.
The box office of "Hero" was 2.5 million. What was the total box office in Hong Kong last year?
HK$3.83 million.
Converted to RMB, it's barely a little over 4 million.
In other words, Zhang Yimou alone, with just one film, raked in more than half of Hong Kong's annual box office revenue.
Head north, head north.
It seemed that Lao Xiang had grasped something in his heart.
"Excuse me, young man, I'm sorry for my ignorance, I only recognized you now. Ah May, please give me a cup of tea."
"General Manager Xiang is really efficient."
Qian Lang also said with a smile.
He also realized that what Lao Xiang had in his hand was his file.
The assistant wiggled his hips as he went out to pour tea.
The two sat facing each other as if they had just met again.
Qian Lang has transformed from a scoundrel into President Qian.
"Mr. Qian is truly a young hero, making such a name for himself in Beijing in less than a year."
He smiled and said to the boss.
His attitude was completely different from before.
The speed at which they change faces is comparable to that of Sichuan opera.
Qian Lang, however, only believed one sentence.
Unsolicited kindness is either a sign of ulterior motives or theft!
"President Xiang, just say what you want to say. I don't like beating around the bush."
Qian Lang said calmly.
"Haha, that's great! I wonder about you and China Film Group..."
"Old Han?"
Qian Lang replied, seemingly on cue.
He seemed to understand what Boss Xiang was thinking.
The eldest brother's lips twitched when he heard this.
Old Han?
Han Sanping?
"Haha, that's right. I've met with President Han a few times. He's quite easy to talk to. President Qian must have a good relationship with him."
Ok.
Qian Lang's lips twitched as well.
Is Han Sanping easy to talk to?
Isn't that swearing?
However, he started to think about it.
It seems China Star is aiming for a northward expansion.
This was his assessment at that moment.
Lao Xiang must have been humiliated in Beijing.
Those people in Beijing's elite circles wouldn't look down on these southerners from Hong Kong.
In the capital city, right under the emperor's nose, everyone else is inferior.
If he hadn't been so ruthless, he wouldn't have been able to establish himself in Beijing.
But Qian Lang's current concern is [Hong Kong capital].
Beijing's elite circles, Hong Kong's elite circles, and him!
Why did he make "Nightclub"?
Because they have no money, because they have no luck points.
"Nightclub" will be released during the Lunar New Year holiday, and he believes that his fortune will be quite substantial by then.
Perhaps it will reach a new level.
His next film was originally planned to be "Crazy Stone".
Because we have no money!
But Lao Xiang is rich.
If Lao Xiang (Xiang Jianlin) were willing to invest, he would have dared to snatch the rights to "A World Without Thieves".
Of course, there is one major problem.
Han Sanping!
Would Zuo Shandiao (a famous bandit leader) resent Hong Kong capital?
Xiang Laoda saw that Qian Lang was pondering and remained silent.
That's how it is when dealing with smart people; you can understand what the other is doing with just a glance.
He knew that Qian Lang was already weighing the options after he mentioned "China Film Group".
Just then, the female secretary came in with a cup of tea, but the boss waved her away, telling her to leave quickly.
At this moment, a glint of light appeared in Qian Lang's eyes.
"Mr. Xiang, my movie will be released during the Lunar New Year season. How about I treat you to a movie in Beijing?"
Qian Lang figured it out.
Han Sanping will not be averse to Hong Kong capital.
Because he doesn't just represent the Beijing film circle; he represents the entire Chinese film industry.
It's certain people in Beijing's elite circles who are averse to Hong Kong capital.
Those who have vested interests.
Han Sanping was simply dragged into it.
And he!
But it helped Han Sanping block those people.
Upon hearing this, the boss's face broke into a wide smile.
"Haha, I'll definitely be there!"
The two then chatted happily about interesting things in the entertainment industry.
They seemed like close friends despite their age difference.
This is the world of martial arts.
Two people who were just at loggerheads can instantly become friends for the sake of mutual benefit.
Of course, Qian Lang also has principles.
If Zhang Baizhi doesn't give him an explanation, this matter isn't over!
After a while, Mrs. Xiang returned.
His anger intensified.
However, before she could speak, Boss Xiang quickly stood up when she came in.
"Tiffany, let me reintroduce you. This is Mr. Qian from Beijing, one of our own!"
Mrs. Xiang was taken aback.
However, the anger on his face vanished in an instant, replaced by a smile.
They've been married for so long, how could she not know what her husband meant?
"Hey, handsome, I knew you weren't an ordinary person. Lao Xiang, the matter is cleared up. Cecilia really messed things up this time. It's true, but she didn't go through our company. She took the job on her own. Do you know how she did it?"
"Stop keeping us in suspense, Mr. Qian and I are waiting."
"Hehe, Xie Tingfeng let her answer it!"
Qian Lang was completely bewildered.
Are these two actors?
This transition was so natural, and so fast.
Okay, that's true!
only!
Xie Tingfeng?
MMP.
Qian Lang cursed inwardly.
Why are things getting more and more complicated?
Should we go and block Yinghuang's door again tomorrow?
At this moment, Mrs. Xiang continued speaking.
"I've already made her break up with GG! Mr. Qian, don't worry, the Xiang family follows the rules when it comes to business."
As she spoke, Mrs. Xiang sat down next to Qian Lang.
This speed.
Okay, Qian Lang doesn't believe it!
At this point, Zhang Baizhi definitely did not push GG.
However, she will definitely refuse in the future.
As for blocking the entrance of Yinghuang?
Now that he's got the GG, there's nothing he can do about it.
"Thank you, Mrs. Heung."
Qian Lang said with a smile.
He wouldn't make trouble unreasonably if others were doing things the right way.
The key point is that he also wants to move between the Beijing and Hong Kong social circles.
Happy to everyone!
Everything was settled, and GG was retrieved; the matter should have been over.
However, Qian Lang made a final request.
"Mr. Xiang, Mrs. Xiang, would it be convenient for you to meet Ms. Zhang Baizhi?"
We were just talking about business matters.
Qian Lang is now considering matters of fate.
As someone who has been reborn, he could not possibly forget the Hong Kong entertainment industry turmoil of 08.
It was that incident that led to the complete decline of the Hong Kong entertainment industry.
He has no interest in saving everyone, nor does he have the ability. Of course, he could also kill Teacher Chen, but the price would be too high.
However, it is possible if we can pull one or two people out.
After hearing Qian Lang's words, President Xiang and Mrs. Xiang exchanged a glance.
Then Mrs. Xiang spoke.
"Mr. Qian, it's not that it's inconvenient, but... Cecilia hasn't been feeling well lately; she was just discharged from the hospital."
Discharged?
This was something Qian Lang never expected.
He had originally thought that Zhang Baizhi had delivered himself to his door this time.
I never expected such a thing to happen.
It's unreasonable for him to insist on seeing someone who has just been discharged from the hospital.
Qian Lang could only marvel at the power of fate.
"That's such a pity. I'm not blaming her, but I want to tell her not to let others take advantage of her. Xie Tingfeng did a very dishonorable thing in this matter, and..."
Qian Lang paused here.
"This involves a personal feud between me and a big shot in Beijing's elite circles. Xie Tingfeng's actions are highly inappropriate, so please convey my message to him."
Mr. Xiang narrowed his eyes upon hearing this.
It was obvious that he was angry.
Then he said something.
"Mr. Qian, thank you very much."
Qian Lang smiled.
"Hehe, in Beijing, you could kill more officials than ordinary people with a single brick. We'd better be careful."
The three of them laughed as they talked.
-----------------
Next, Qian Lang declined the invitations to a banquet, a tour guide, and a series of other services from General Manager Xiang.
When you're on someone else's turf, you have to be on guard.
Don't end up sleeping with some random woman without really knowing what's going on, and then get photographed.
That would be really fun.
Quite a few people in Hong Kong do this.
After saying goodbye to Mr. and Mrs. Xiang, Qian Lang strolled around Hong Kong alone.
We found a hotel that wasn't too expensive, and it wasn't far from the Peninsula Hotel.
After settling in, we went to Mong Kok and didn't go back until 10 p.m.
I had just gotten into the taxi when my phone rang.
And it's a Hong Kong phone number.
He answered the call without thinking much about it.
"Hello, who is this?"
