Entertainment tycoon since 83

Chapter 119 Recruiting Money Trees

There wasn’t any so-called premiere this time, but it was still the first screening, so several main actors who participated in the show were all there.

Of course, having said that, the male lead and the second male lead were both in the crew of Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. There were only two actors that Huang Ze was not familiar with, one was Zhang Manyu who played A'e, and the other was Wan Ziliang who played Tony even though the filming started a few years earlier.

He was about thirty years old, rather thin, and did not have the temperament of the future underworld boss Jiang Tianyang.

At the moment, his film career is average, but his TV career has reached a new peak. This year's "Rogue Tycoon" won the ratings championship.

Although there are only two TV stations in Hong Kong Island performing rival shows, they are definitely familiar faces to the audience.

"Hello, Mr. Huang." Wan Ziliang stretched out his hands with a warm look on his face.

"Hello! Jiawei told me about you. You're a great actor! We'll have a chance to work together in the future."

"Of course. If you have a role, just call me directly."

"Oh, is this your younger brother?" Huang Ze's eyes fell on the thin young man next to Wan Ziliang, a young man with a pointy face and looked quite introverted.

Well, the main reason is that he was so popular in his previous life. When talking about comedy, many people would think of him. When talking about Hong Kong comedy, 99% of people would think of him. It would be hard for Huang Ze not to notice him.

"Oh, this is Ah Xing. I brought him out to see the world." Wan Ziliang called Zhou Xingchi forward and said, "This is Mr. Huang."

"Hello, Mr. Huang." Zhou Xingchi hurried over and extended his hand. "I often listen to your songs and watch your movies. That movie In the Mood for Love is really great."

"Oh, Ah Xing!" Huang Ze held the other person's hand with one hand and patted the other person's arm with the other hand. "She looks OK, but how's her acting?"

"Ah?" Zhou Xingchi was a little confused.

"What are you standing there for?" Wan Ziliang pushed Zhou Xingchi, "Boss Huang is asking you a question."

"Well, I entered the entertainment industry in 80. I have a lot of acting experience over the years and have played many roles."

"for example?"

"for example?"

Stephen Chow was embarrassed.

say what?
They said that I played a Song soldier and was killed by Mei Chaofeng in one move?

Or other supporting roles?

If we talk about a more well-known program, it’s probably the children’s program “430 Shuttle”.

But would such a big star watching this kind of movie?

"Haha." Huang Ze knew what the other party was hesitating about, and smiled, "Let me test you. Make a few expressions while waiting for your wife to give birth in the hospital."

"what."

"My son was born."

"what."

"My son is born to call me dad. What a genius!"

"I won the lottery, first prize!"

"Ah!" Only the whites of Stephen Chow's eyes were left.

"Hey, why are you dizzy?"

"Mr. Huang, it is reasonable for a person to faint when he is extremely excited."

"You have your own opinions!" Huang Ze nodded with a smile, "Which company do you work for? Come to our Xinghai, the monthly salary is 4,000, and the film remuneration is calculated separately. However, the people I sign personally are those I want to focus on training. You have to sign a seven-year contract. For the company's films, the remuneration is half of the market price. For films outside the company, I will take 50%."

"You are the second male actor signed, the first one is him." Seeing that he didn't know what he was thinking, Huang Ze pointed at Liang Jiahui, adding a heavy weight to his contract.

He was also determined to get the person in front of him.

If you don't see such a good employee who can make money, shaking the money tree, it's fine. But if you see him and don't let him make money for you, then are you still a human being? As for him being difficult to deal with or something.

Not to mention that he doesn't have any capital to be so arrogant now.

Even if he is arrogant, so what? I am not dating him.

After these seven years, the Hong Kong film industry will be almost gone, which will be just the right time for you to start your own business and make a lot of money.

"Mr. Huang, are you serious?" Zhou Xingchi felt dizzy and stuttered when he spoke.

He really didn't expect that he was just a children's program host and a supporting actor, but the person in front of him was willing to pay 4,000 yuan to recruit him.

Although the contract period is a bit long.

But looking at it from another perspective, the longer the contract, the more willing the company will be to support you!
Thinking about another male artist in the company who was said to be starring in three dramas this year, he was even more excited. His mouth trembled, "If Mr. Huang is serious, I will quit my job and join you soon."

"Do you think I'm lying?"

"Why don't you thank Mr. Huang quickly?" Wan Ziliang was also happy for his younger brother and quickly reminded him.

"Thank you, Mr. Huang."

"Well, you will be responsible for it yourself when the time comes, and recruit them according to the conditions I mentioned." Huang Ze instructed Liu Zhenwei and sat in his seat.

On the right is the male lead Liang Jiahui, and on the left is Wang Jiawei.

"No, I was wondering why you keep wearing sunglasses?" Huang Ze couldn't stand it anymore when he saw him wearing sunglasses while watching his movie, so he took off his sunglasses and put them on his face.

"Hehe, this will give it a sense of mystery, and it will also protect the eyes better."

Wang Jiawei smiled, reached into his pocket, took out another pair of sunglasses and put them on.

Huang Ze just wanted to ask him, "Good fellow, is this your life magic weapon?"

But at this time the movie started, and Huang Ze's eyes were all on the screen.

This may be the only film by Wang Jiawei whose plot is relatively easy to understand. If you don’t watch it now, you may never be able to watch it in the future.

At the beginning of the movie, the plot follows the script and is similar to the previous film "As Tears Go By".

It tells the story of a pair of gangster thugs, Ah Hui and Brother Wuying.

The protagonist of the original film was named Ahua, but wasn’t the protagonist Liu Dehua? Now that it has been replaced by Liang Jiahui, the protagonist’s name has naturally been changed to Ahui.

Ah Hui is a man who is somewhat tired of fighting and killing. He has a cousin, Ah E, who comes to the city for medical treatment and temporarily stays at Ah Hui's house.

Brother Wuying is a man who dreams of sitting on the top seat one day.

Later, Ah Hui found out that he had fallen in love with Ah E. He wanted to find Ah E to confess his love, but he found out that his good brother Wu Ying had accepted a "killer order" that would almost lead to his death.

In the end, Brother Wuying shot and killed the target person at the door of the police station, but he was besieged and killed after only one shot. Ah Hui, who came rushing over, saw Brother Wuying falling to the ground with his own eyes, and shot back to kill the target, but he was eventually shot dead himself.

Liang Jiahui had a Band-Aid on his face, his eyes wide open staring at the sky, and his body twitching constantly.

"Oh, it's a pretty good shot!" Huang Ze praised Wang Jiawei, "Why does the scene where Ah Hui and Ah E are having dinner look so familiar? And Ah Hui smoking."

"Hehe." Wang Jiawei stretched out his thumb and index finger and pinched them. "In some scenes, I paid tribute to your "In the Mood for Love". I really like that movie."

"Your use of light, shadow and color is great!" Huang Ze put his arm around Wang Jiawei's shoulder. "This film is pretty good. It shouldn't be hard to recoup the cost."

"I hope so. Speaking of which, I have to thank you, boss, for giving me this opportunity. I never thought that I would be a director and make a movie one day."

"You're welcome!" Huang Ze took a deep breath.

As long as you don't ask me to invest in "Days of Being Wild", it will be the best way to thank me.

At this time, Ah Hui, who had been twitching, died completely, and the movie ended completely.

Applause broke out from the audience. The applause was not very enthusiastic, but at least there was no cursing and no one threw sugar cane. Huang Ze knew that Xinghai Film and Television's third film should be a success!
