Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 143 "Kung Fu Boy"

"I used to hear people say that Mr. Gu Long is addicted to alcohol. Today I have seen it."

Gu Long didn't know how many times he had heard this sentence, he didn't think it was a big deal.

And he likes to drink, not because he likes to drink, but because he likes the atmosphere after drinking.

He thinks this is something that those who don't drink can't understand at all, so it's absolutely impossible for you to persuade him to quit drinking.

"This year, the first movie I made took the highest box office record in Xiangjiang, and the first TV series I made was able to make Lidi, who has been suppressed by TVB, and the other party evenly..."

"Is Mr. Lin showing off to me?"

Gu Long thought that Lin Daoqiu said this because he wanted to show off his great achievements in front of him.

But I have to say that if one of these two things is taken out at random, most people dare not even think about it, let alone Lin Daoqiu now only has one.

"Everyone who comes to see Mr. Gu Long has to drink with you. Only when they are happy with you can they become good friends with you. This seems to have become a custom."

Lin Daoqiu shook his head with a sudden smile and said, "But I, Lin Daoqiu, are different. I'm different from them. Even if I don't drink with you, I can still be good friends with you."

After hearing what Lin Daoqiu said, Gu Long was stunned for a moment, and then he suddenly burst out laughing.

"The reason why you talk so much is because you are afraid of drinking with me. You are really boring."

Lin Daoqiu did not expect that he would be defined by Gu Long as a boring person.

"But you are right. You are indeed very special. Your achievements at your age have already surpassed others, so it is only natural that you are proud."

It's rare that Gu Long is willing to "open the net" to Lin Daoqiu, at least in terms of drinking, as long as he can't drink with him, he will exclude them.

After removing two of the three glasses of wine, Lin Daoqiu said to Gu Long, "It's not that I can't drink, but I'm here to drink, not to compete."

When he finished speaking, he drank the wine in the glass in one gulp in front of Gu Long.

Gu Long watched Lin Daoqiu finish the wine. He didn't say a word from the beginning to the end. He just looked at each other like this and didn't say anything for a long time.

"Forget it, you have already been disgusted by Mr. Cha. If I dislike you, then you are a bit miserable. Just focus on this, and I will not drive you away tonight."

Bringing the two glasses of wine that Lin Daoqiu removed to him, Gu Long swallowed one of them in one gulp.

Just as he was about to pick up another glass and drink it, Lin Daoqiu suddenly reached out and held Gu Long down, preventing him from picking up the wine.

Gu Long turned his head and looked at Lin Daoqiu with a puzzled expression, wondering why he wanted to stop him?Could it be that he also wants to persuade himself to drink less?
If that's the case, he won't be looking for Lin Daoqiu to drink in the future.

"These three glasses of wine were originally mine. Now that you've had one, you can't drink this one."

Upon hearing this, Gu Long shook his head, then took his hand back.

"You, who copied my "Meteor Butterfly Sword", refused to drink as a fine, and refused to drink with me. What exactly do you want?"

"Before I came here, I wanted to persuade you to quit drinking, but now it seems that you should not listen to what I said."

If possible, Lin Daoqiu would like to make Gu Long drink less, but this is probably only his extravagant wish.

"You still have some self-awareness."

This was the first time that Gu Long praised Lin Daoqiu tonight, although it was not a good thing.

"Of course, what Gu Long wants to live is a happy life. Wine and beauties are indispensable. Ordinary people like me have no way to comprehend."

"You're right, but it's a pity you can't drink, otherwise we would be very good friends."

After Gu Long finished speaking, he poured himself another glass of wine and drank it all in one gulp. He drank like ordinary people drinking plain water.

"Although I'm not Chu Liuxiang, I'm not Lu Xiaofeng, and I'm not the alcoholic Li Xunhuan, but I think we can be friends, very good friends."

Gu Long shook his head. In his opinion, people who cannot drink with him, no matter how extravagant they say, are unlikely to become his friends.

"I'm not in a hurry. Anyway, I have plenty of time. After all, being friends is a lifetime thing. To be able to become good friends with the famous Gu Long is not done by drinking. Isn't it interesting?"

I don't know where Lin Daoqiu's confidence came from. Gu Long just laughed at what he said.

However, Gu Long felt that he was right in saying one thing, that is, being friends is a matter of a lifetime, and his best friend is only Ni Kuang.

This time Gu Long drank very unhappyly. Originally, he thought that Lin Daoqiu would feel guilty for copying "Meteor Butterfly Sword", and he would show himself very hard at the wine table.

But I didn't expect that Lin Daoqiu only drank five glasses of wine from the beginning to the end, so Gu Long had to drink in another place after drinking, and this time he didn't bring Lin Daoqiu with him.

Obviously Gu Long has decided not to drink with Lin Daoqiu in the future. As for whether they can become friends, it depends on whether Lin Daoqiu has the ability.

The next day, Lin Daoqiu wrote a check for 200 million Taiwan dollars, and then sent it to Gu Long's company.

According to the person who gave the money, Gu Long looked at the check and remained silent for a long time, but finally he accepted it, but he asked the person who gave the money to tell Lin Daoqiu a word.

"Only this time, the next time is not an example."

It seemed that Gu Long was really angry this time, but maybe he felt that Lin Daoqiu was acting sincerely, at least not the kind of hypocritical person, so he was willing to make an exception once.

Throughout August, Lin Daoqiu was busy in Baodao, wholeheartedly trying to make "Lotus Hegemony" a good one. It can be said that he devoted almost all his energy to this matter.

………………

September 1978, 9 may seem like an ordinary day.

But early in the morning, a message was published on the entertainment pages of all the newspapers.

"Yuen Biao's new film will be released tonight"

"Yuen Biao, Sammo Hung Vows to Break Ten Million Box Office"

"Golden Harvest is coming fiercely, Shaw Brothers sacrificed Zhang Wuji to fight"

Regarding the menacing "Kung Fu Boy", Fang Yihua himself didn't think that any of the movies they were planning to release could compete with "Kung Fu Boy".

But if they don't play their cards, then Shaw's face will definitely be lost.

In the end, Fang Yihua decided to take out Chu Yuan's "Yi Tian Shou Long Ji" and go face-to-face with "Kung Fu Boy".

The lineup of this "Yi Tian Shou Long Ji" is not bad. Er Dongsheng, a popular young boy of the Shaw Brothers, plays Zhang Wuji, Yu An'an plays Zhou Zhiruo, and the first sister of the Shaw Brothers, Guo Youhua, plays Zhao Min.

If it wasn't for "Kung Fu Boy", this drama might have won a good box office, but now, I'm afraid it will really be reduced to cannon fodder.
