Return to 88: Starting from Marrying My Sister-in-law

After half an hour.

"Just him?"

"Who is this little fat guy?"

"What about people?"

"Where is the person we are looking for?"

Xiao Jun grabbed Lu Yang's collar and pointed at the opposite side loudly.

Lu Yang spread his hands: "That's him!"

Seeing that Xiao Jun's face had turned green, he slapped his forehead and said, "Oh, I forgot to mention, this is Director Wang Jin.

Our contact person in Hong Kong.

Don't be so rude, just say hello."

Lu Yang slapped Xiao Jun's hand away and pursed his lips.

Only when Xiao Jun realized that he had misunderstood did his expression finally look a little better than before.

He glared at Lu Yang.

Nodded to the fat man opposite.

Then the fat man opposite stood up and said enthusiastically: "Hello, hello, I am Wang Jin, you can just call me Xiao Jin, or Xiao Wang. Mr. Xiao, your visit really makes my little temple shine."

After saying this, he clasped his hands together and bowed seriously.

This attitude can be as low as possible.

Xiao Jun felt a little embarrassed, so he asked curiously: "Do you know me?"

This fat guy definitely knows him, otherwise why would he be so rude at first and respectful later?
Wang Jin said with a shy face: "To be honest with you, Mr. Xiao, I didn't know you before, but after Mr. Lu introduced you, I suddenly realized that it was the leader of Pengcheng Gang who came. I am sorry for not welcoming you in person. I am sorry for not welcoming you in person."

It's really because he has filmed too many costume dramas that he has become so pretentious.

Xiao Jun said with some disdain: "Alright, alright, stop flattering me. Since you are not the real boss, then call the real boss out."

He is just a small-time director in Hong Kong, not worth his time and energy to get to know him.

Who is he?
He is the leader of Pengcheng Gang.

Pengcheng, which is only separated from Hong Kong by a river, is his territory. This man is so famous that he is respected wherever he goes.

Unconsciously, he had stretched his neck and tilted it upwards.

Such a conceited look.

This made Lu Yang a little unhappy, so he patted his shoulder vigorously and said, "Sit down. What's the matter with the host or not? There is no one else here except Director Wang. We are here to invite Director Wang to dinner today."

Xiao Jun grimaced in pain and shrugged unhappily.

I thought to myself: Damn, this guy is trying so hard, he must be trying to take advantage of the opportunity to embarrass me. No, I can't show my weakness. If I do, I'll fall into his trap.

He sat down with gritted teeth.

Then he picked up his chopsticks and ate the food, one bite after another, to suppress the curse words that wanted to come out of his mouth.

"Cough cough cough."

Unfortunately, I ate too fast and choked myself.

Wang Jin saw this and quickly stood up to pour him some tea. "Mr. Xiao, have some tea."

Xiao Jun snatched the teapot from his hand and started drinking.

"Gulu gulu..."

Finally feeling comfortable, Xiao Jun sat down, rubbing his belly, and stared at the fat man opposite him with a smile on his face. He looked at him again and again before finally blurting out, "What is your purpose?"

Yup!

Why do Hong Kong directors try to please mainlanders so much?

Do these Hong Kong people particularly respect mainlanders, especially the wealthy ones?
wrong.

Weird.

What kind of people are Hong Kong people? What is their attitude when facing tourists from the mainland? Although Xiao Jun has never directly faced people from Pengcheng, who is only separated by a river, he has many friends and good buddies who like to come here to shop, travel and hang out with celebrities when they have nothing to do.

Then he would turn around and talk about the materialistic nature of capitalism here, how having money allows you to do whatever you want, what you have done, and what girls you have dated, and he would brag about it all.

Then step on it again.

People who complain about this side and look down on mainlanders usually describe it as "looking down on others with dog eyes".

Wang Jin smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed, and he said in a more arrogant and respectful manner: "This is all as it should be. You are the boss and I am an employee. If you must say the purpose, my purpose is to hope that you can eat well, have fun, and then you are welcome to come again next time."

Xiao Jun suddenly turned around, looked at Lu Yang and asked, "Is what he said true?"

Lu Yangzheng drank some wine and ate some food, then put down his chopsticks and said, "Yes, that's right, I have decided to use the money raised by Xiaobawang to make a movie."

"Well, he is the director."

After saying that, he pointed with his chopsticks at the delighted Wang Jing opposite him: "The little fat boy is not bad, he has the style of a future great director, I am very optimistic about him, the Hong Kong film industry, maybe in the future, he will be the support."

In this era, the most glorious period of Hong Kong films, there were a lot of directors more famous than Fatty Wang, such as John Woo, Tsui Hark, Chang Cheh, and Du Qifeng... Just by hearing their names, you can tell that they are great directors, and they are the leaders in their respective fields.

And what does Fatty Wang have?
Fatty Wang started out by making 1+2 level films, and the only things he can show off, apart from a bunch of crappy films or comedies that cater to the audience, are these.

So when he heard Lu Yang praising him for his promising future, calling him a well-deserved great director in the future and a pillar of the Hong Kong film industry, he felt a little embarrassed.

Xiao Jun opened his mouth and said exaggeratedly: "Are you really going to make a movie?"

"Ah."

Lu Yang nodded.

“How much are you going to invest?”

Xiao Jun asked.

"All in."

Lu Yang answered truthfully.

"hiss--"

Xiao Jun took a deep breath and said, "You're going to invest all of it? Do you know how much money it is? Aren't you afraid of losing everything?"

Lu Yang answered them one by one: "Yes. I know. The total amount of money is 3000 million, but it can't be used up. It would be a pity to waste it. I didn't plan to continue raising funds. Brother Mou insisted on investing, so I had to accept his investment reluctantly. This is 3000 million more. I have no place to spend it, so I have to use it to make movies. As for losing all the money, haha, I'm not afraid."

This puts all the responsibility on Mou Qizhong. If Mou Qizhong hadn't insisted on coming to Pengcheng to invest in Little Prodigy Company, adding an extra 3000 million to the company's account, Lu Yang would never have thought of using this money to make a movie.

Da Jun swallowed his saliva and said, "No, buddy, if you feel that too much money is too much, you can save it and put it in the stock market. I will take care of it and guarantee that the annual interest rate will not be less than 30 points."

Lu Yang shook his head. "It's too late. If you don't believe me, ask him."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Jun turned around and looked at Wang Jin.

The little fat man nodded at him, seemingly very honestly, "Yeah, it's really late."

Xiao Jun didn't believe it: "Could it be that the contract has been signed?"

The little fat man continued to nod: "Well, the contract has been signed. Don't worry, Mr. Xiao, I will definitely shoot it well."

You take a picture of Jill. You take a picture of Jill.

Xiao Jun glared at him, then turned to look at Lu Yang: "Tell me the truth, has the contract really been signed? Didn't we just get here?"

Lu Yang smiled and said, "Who are we? We are the bosses. Small matters like signing contracts are naturally handed over to our subordinates. I have already sent people here to contact Director Wang and arrange all the contracts.

Let's come here, find someone to shoot the commercial, and then spend the rest of the time wandering around and appreciating what this materialistic, capitalist city really looks like. Otherwise, do you think we're here to work?"

Lu Yang laughed at him.

Xiao Jun said unhappily: "Yes, you are awesome, you treat money like dirt, but can you guarantee that you won't lose money?"

He had a share of the money here, but now it was being used by Lu Yang to show off, which made him feel uncomfortable.

Lu Yang shook his head: "No."

It really can't.

He made up his mind to invest in this movie, but it was difficult to make a profit, let alone make money.

Unless it can be released in mainland China, Lu Yang has made up his mind. As soon as the film is finished and released in theaters in Hong Kong, it will be printed in mainland China at the same time. However, they will be pirated discs. Lu Yang is even prepared to provide the source of the film for free, just to let them spread.

If the east is dark, there is always the west. The meaning of this movie's existence is not to be a box office hit.

Besides, no matter how much it sells, how much can it sell? 2000 million? 3000 million? Unfortunately, even if it sells million more, it can't make back the investment, but this is already the ceiling of Hong Kong movie box office.

In Hong Kong, if you want to make money by making a movie, in addition to controlling costs and trying to make the costs as low as a few million, the rest depends on selling copyrights. For example, in Southeast Asia, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Taiwan, Japan, South Korea, etc., it would be best if they all have the opportunity to be released, and then they should be released. This way you can make a lot of money.

Xiao Jun asked Lu Yang even more angrily: "If you can't guarantee it, why are you still voting? And you're voting all at once?"

Lu Yang smiled and said, "Of course I have my reasons for this."

As he said that, he looked at the fat guy opposite him and said, "Okay, no more jokes, Director Wang, you come and introduce to our shareholder the movie we are going to shoot next, its name, its main content, and the purpose we are going to achieve after it is finished."

The little fat boy rubbed his hands, then said happily: "Okay, okay."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Xiao Jun and said in unfluent Mandarin: "Boss Xiao, this is what's going on. Our movie is called "Super School Bully". It stars the four kings who have dominated the music scene this year: Andy Lau, Jacky Cheung, Aaron Kwok, Leon Lai, and Stephen Chow. This is a comedy movie. The main element is Street Fighter. In addition, it also incorporates a lot of content from fighting games to pay tribute to the classics. I believe that after the movie is finished, many audiences will like it, especially those who will want to play the games in it."

Lu Yang continued, “In addition to the above elements, we would like to ask Director Wang, the screenwriter, to pay more attention to the film and try to see if we can integrate some game characters such as Super Mario and Contra. The main thing is that it must be playable with our Little Prodigy Keyboard Learning Machine.

By the way, you should also design as many inserted advertisements as possible, even if people will complain after watching it, saying that this movie is actually a complete advertisement.

It doesn’t matter.

Then just scold her. She won’t have any flaws on her body anyway. Can it be possible for her to give birth to a son without an anus? Right?

Our goal is to go viral. Remember, we must go viral. Word of mouth will spread the word, and black and red will also be red.

By then, the product will be a big hit.”

Lu Yang snapped his fingers.

Celebrate yourself for coming up with such a great idea.

And Wang Jing didn't take it seriously.

He had no idea how many times he had been cursed with words like "giving birth to a son without an anus" and "May God strike him dead". Every time a bad movie came out, he had to hear these same words hundreds of times.

I'm tired of hearing it and don't take it seriously at all.

Instead, he agreed with a smile and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Lu. I have written down all your requirements. I will shoot the film the way you say. I will edit the film the way you say. Inserting advertisements is no problem. It's no problem to insert a few more. I will definitely get it done. Don't worry."

This is why Lu Yang looked for him.

If it were any other well-known director, for the sake of so-called principles and bottom line, I'm afraid they would have started arguing with Lu Yang just after hearing what Lu Yang said.

The king of bad movies, Wang Jin, is still better. This little fat guy has no principles or bottom line in his heart. His principles and bottom line can be sold as long as they can be exchanged for investment.

Lu Yang laughed, stood up and patted Wang Jin on the shoulder, saying, "I knew you, a fat guy, had a future. Okay, go back and sort out the script first, and then find a time to invite the Four Heavenly Kings to come out and finish filming the commercial. I'll get the finished commercial videotape and it's time to go back to the mainland. Then we can arrange a time. Your movie will be released in Hong Kong, and I'll put the commercial on CCTV. We'll do it on two fronts. Hehe, do you think our product will be popular?"

Wang Jin bowed his head and nodded: "Boss Lu, don't worry, I will do it as soon as possible. Whether it is an advertisement or a movie, it won't take much time."

Wang Jin, who once created a record of finishing a movie in seven days, is truly a quick shooter among quick shooters. He really has the ability to say this.

Lu Yang called out to the stunned Xiao Jun: "Let's go, let's go strolling around the streets of Hong Kong. I heard that the beauties here are very attractive, and you can also run into celebrities on the streets anytime and anywhere. Don't you want to?"

Xiao Jun was pulled by him and walked downstairs.

I had so many doubts in my mind, but I could only keep them all to myself at this moment.

But when it comes to shopping, looking at beautiful women, and encountering celebrities, he is really quite fond of them.

Wang Jin caught up with him and approached Lu Yang and said, "Mr. Lu, you have never been to Hong Kong. Are you in need of a guide?"

Lu Yang glanced at him sideways and said with a little disdain: "You?"

Wang Jin quickly shook his head, his face full of fat trembling as he said, "It's not me, it's a female star that I've taken a fancy to. I think she's quite suitable for starring in the movie Super School Overlord, and it's also good to be a vase in it. Of course, the main decision is still made by you, Mr. Lu. Why don't I ask her to come over and let her meet you first?
If she doesn't suit your taste, let her go.

If she is pleasing to you, Mr. Lu, you can let her stay and serve as your guide for a few days. Mr. Lu, what do you think?"

This pimp has it all written on his face.

Lu Yang felt a little embarrassed.

"who is it?"

If it was an unknown actor in the future, he would not agree and would not even bother to meet him.

Wang Jin felt there was a chance, so he quickly said in a flattering way, "Her name is Chingmy Yau, she's just over 20 years old, she doesn't have a boyfriend yet, she was a Miss Hong Kong, and she's acted in some TV series and movies before, but she's never been the leading actress. If you, Mr. Lu, are willing to support her, I have a way to make her obey you."

The three words "Qiu Shuzhen" represent a generation of goddess.

But at this moment, she is not really famous. She became famous after she met Wang Jin. She first took the risk to shoot a 1+2-level movie, in which she played a female killer, and then she became an overnight sensation.

From then on, she and Wang Jin were inseparable. Every movie they made became a hit. As the saying goes, Shu-zhen Yau is permanent, but the male leads come and go. Their relationship was always like that of boyfriend and girlfriend. They were together for a full five years before they broke up peacefully. Two years later, Shu-zhen Yau married an honest man.

At this moment, Lu Yang looked at the green light above Wang Jing's head and asked: "Are you sure it's her?"
