Chapter 313
nightclub
In a private room, Hong Jinbao and his group were interacting with a group of girls.
"Brother Sanmao, stop touching me, let's roll the dice~" the girl pleaded softly.
Hong Jinbao laughed, pulled his hand out, and even brought it to his nose to smell it, which made the girl angry.
"Hahaha~" Hong Jinbao was in a good mood, feeling comfortable being coaxed by the little girl.
"Okay, let's play dice, a bunch of lustful ghosts..."
Seeing his men being so affectionate with the young ladies, Hong Jinbao acted like a bad guy.
The members of the Hong Clan reluctantly sat back at the table. Playing dice was not as fun as playing with girls, but since the eldest brother had spoken, they had to accompany him.
The sound of shaking dice rang out in the box. Everyone was having a great time. Whenever people who were familiar with each other drank and flirted, it would cause a burst of laughter.
Big brother Hong Jinbao laughed out loud from time to time amid the flattery of the crowd. His face was greasy, making the scar on his philtrum look even more hideous.
He loves to play. Legend has it that the scar on his philtrum was left from fighting for a girl in a nightclub when he was young.
When the atmosphere was just right, the private room was suddenly pushed open, and then a man came in hurriedly and went straight to Hong Jinbao.
Hong Jinbao laughed when he saw the person coming: "Awen, you came at the right time, come and sit down, I'll ask the madam to call some girls for you..."
The visitor did not say anything, but walked around the others and came directly to Hong Jinbao, whispering in his ear to report.
"Brother Sanmao, Collin was beaten up~"
"What?" Hong Jinbao's face froze and he looked at the guy who was talking again.
His voice was a little loud, and the people around him stopped what they were doing out of fear.
Even those who were physically violent stopped. When Brother Sanmao was in a good mood, it was fine for them to do anything. But when he was in a bad mood, if they didn't pay attention, they would be scolded.
The visitor saw Hong Jinbao getting angry, then looked at the people around him, and this time his voice was a little louder: "I said Brother Collin was beaten up~"
"Who? Who hit him?"
Hong Jinbao's first reaction was disbelief. Collin was Zou Zhaolong, and Zou Zhaolong was very skilled and not someone most people could beat.
But then I remembered that this is Hong Kong, and the community doesn’t follow any rules, and everyone works together.
It is inevitable that two fists cannot beat four hands.
"Zhang... Zhang Chen's people~"
"Ok?"
Hong Jinbao looked at the newcomer in surprise: "How did you manage to fight him?"
The visitor then said hesitantly, "Brother Collin watched the episode of 锵锵三人行 today, the one with Zhang Chen. In the episode, Zhang Chen was disrespectful to you, the master. Collin wanted to vent his anger on the master, so he took people to the crew of 九龙墙城, intending to injure the leading actors so that their movie could not be filmed..."
"Stupid~" Upon hearing this, Hong Jinbao was furious.
"How could you be so stupid as to go to someone else's studio and cause trouble? What's the difference between you and those gangsters..."
He is a film maker himself, and this is the kind of behavior he hates the most.
Before the return, the entire film industry was deeply harmed by gangs. It was common for crews to be blackmailed by gangs. They would not pay, kidnap the leading actors, and steal the copies.
To this end, the entertainment industry has even organized anti-gang parades.
But I didn't expect that my apprentice would do something similar now.
The most important thing is that people will definitely think that he was the one who instigated this, which is like yellow mud falling into the crotch, which is shit if not shit.
"Zhang Chen also said..."
Seeing that Hong Jinbao was angry, the visitor felt uneasy, but he still had to say what he had to say.
"What did you say?" Hong Jinbao looked like he wanted to kill someone.
"You are the first one and he is the fifteenth. When your movie is released in the future, he will arrange a movie to compete with yours~"
slap~
Hong Jinbao angrily threw the sieve, and the dice inside spun around on the table. The girls nearby were frightened like quails. Someone winked at them and they immediately staggered away.
"Where's Collin?"
At this moment, Hong Jinbao just wanted to give his good apprentice a good beating for causing such a big disaster and making him, the master, take the blame.
But then I heard the man say, "Brother Collin's leg was broken. He is in the hospital now."
"His leg was broken? So cruelly?"
Then I thought about how he was trying to hurt the lead actor, and I felt really bad for him: "He deserves it~"
The visitor originally wanted to say a few good words to Zou Zhaolong, but when he saw Hong Jinbao's attitude, he became more nervous and dared not speak.
Seeing him like this, Hong Jinbao became even angrier.
……
On the set, a group of people were saying goodbye to Johnnie To: "Director To, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you~"
Johnnie To shook hands with the two men: "Boss Yang, Director Zhang, please don't be so formal. I can't help you in any way..."
If it was a matter involving a society, he might be able to help mediate, but now it was a feud between Hong Jinbao and them, so Johnnie To could not help.
Although he and Hong Jinbao knew each other, they were not close friends, so there was no need for him to get involved in this matter.
And this time it was obvious that Hong Jinbao went too far.
After seeing off Johnnie To, the boss who had been smiling just now suddenly turned face dark and immediately called Fatty Hong.
"Sanmao, you idiot, who gave you the guts to mess with my movie?"
Even though Hong Jinbao is a veteran in the circle, the boss still scolds him as soon as he opens his mouth.
On the other end of the phone, Hong Jinbao hadn't been scolded like this for a long time, but he just couldn't talk back.
Who made his apprentice do such a disgusting thing? Now he says that it was not his instigation and it was all Zou Zhaolong's own idea. Who would believe him?
The boss kept scolding for ten minutes before hanging up the phone, and Hong Jinbao listened for ten minutes.
When he was younger, he would definitely turn his face away and curse back.
Jiahe said he would turn against him if he wanted to, so who do you think you are?
But not anymore.
The older one is in the arena, the less courageous he becomes.
Coupled with the sluggish Hong Kong film market, only a few companies can start work.
He has to consider the Hong family and his own son.
He is not afraid of offending Zhang Chen. The worst that can happen is that he will not be able to work in the mainland anymore. But if he offends his boss, he will be the local boss.
Hong Jinbao's face turned pale and blue, and no one knew what he was thinking.
It just so happened that at this moment the mama-san poked her head in. She heard that Hong Jinbao had lost his temper inside and had kicked all the girls out, so she came over to smooth things over. Unexpectedly, as soon as she entered the room, Hong Jinbao yelled at her: "Get out!"
The mama-san ran out of the house covered in dust and ashes, and Hong Jinbao felt a little better about his depressed mood, but it was only a little better.
This time I'm really going to be tricked by this apprentice~
The box became quiet. The karaoke was still going on, but no one was singing or talking. Everyone even breathed more lightly.
"All of you go out and leave me alone~"
After driving all his men out and waiting for a while, Hong Jinbao finally took out his phone and dialed: "Along, there is something you need to help me with..."
Tonight, there is bound to be one more person who has trouble sleeping.
……
The driver boss was still left to Zhang Chen. His only job these two days was to serve Zhang Chen. Now he was taking Zhang Chen and the other two back to the hotel.
In the car, Zhang Chen was still angry.
Hong Jinbao's actions somewhat touched his bottom line.
Zhongli Ti next to him was trying to make Zhang Chen happy.
"Don't be angry. Being angry can really hurt your abilities~"
Ok?
"Can you comfort people?"
"I can do it. Don't you believe me? I'll prove it to you~"
Zhongli Ti's eyes were charming and her breath was as sweet as orchid. She looked at the back of the driver in front of her, then at Zhang Chen, and finally stopped at the position of her second brother.
The next second, she suddenly leaned down, and the famous scene from Young and Dangerous was played out~
The car was driving through the bustling streets of Kowloon, and the neon lights reflected on the car windows were gorgeous and magnificent.
The car jolted as the road passed a few uneven sections. The driver could vaguely hear a slight "humming" sound coming from the back seat, but his good professionalism allowed him to stay focused. He didn't even blink, let alone turn his head to look.
After a while, Zhongli Ti finally sat up again and began to wipe the corners of her mouth with a tissue. Zhang Chen had a lewd smile on his face, still not satisfied.
……
The next day, at noon, the two were still asleep.
It’s not that he likes to sleep in, it’s just that he goes to bed when it’s almost dawn.
It is said that a woman is like a wolf at thirty and a tiger at forty.
Mature women have strong sexual interests and can't stop once they start.
Zhang Chen stayed with the baby and kept the light on all night.
Ding-ling-ling, the phone is ringing. It’s the hotel front desk’s wake-up service.
Zhang Chen woke up and remembered that he had to go to the hospital today.
Patting the perky butt beside him and moving his body away, Zhang Chen got up and went to the bathroom to run the shower and wash up.
An hour later, the two met up with Lu Yang and Xie Miao who had rushed to the hospital.
"How's the crew?"
"It went very smoothly. After yesterday's incident, everyone became quiet. The Hong Kong martial artists used to complain a lot, but after yesterday, no one dared to say anything anymore."
The martial arts industry belongs to the very end of the ecological chain of the crew, but they are best at praising the powerful and bullying the weak.
In order to ensure the authenticity of the film, the martial arts actors were basically recruited from Hong Kong. When these people first saw that it was a mainland crew, they felt that they were superior.
Even the male protagonist Xie Miao lacks basic respect.
Zhang Chen had told Lu Yang before that he could make an example of someone when the time was right.
Originally, Lu Yang had not planned to kill the chicken so early. He planned to make an example of it to scare the monkeys after returning to the mainland. Unexpectedly, after what happened yesterday, the martial arts community collectively became obedient.
In fact, this is easy to understand.
Basically, all martial artists have kung fu skills and understand kung fu.
So they understood better what it meant when Rui An beat Zou Zhaolong so casually last night.
"There's only one person who's more difficult to deal with~"
"Who?"
"Billy Zhou, he always wanted to fight with Ruian, but he wasn't trying to cause trouble, he just wanted to fight. In his words, it's too difficult to find an opponent who is equally matched~"
Hearing this name, Zhang Chen felt relieved.
Who is Billy Chow? He is the world boxing champion.
He won the world heavyweight fighting championship in 85.
It's world class!
He entered the entertainment industry later, but his filming was only an amateur activity, mainly to promote his fighting gym.
He can be said to be the most capable villain in all Hong Kong movies.
Compared with him, Zou Zhaolong looks like a good fighter, and he is really a good fighter.
"You can fight, but just stop when you are satisfied, and especially don't get hurt~"
As long as nothing goes wrong, Zhang Chen doesn't mind what they do in private. In fact, it might even be a good thing as it could bring popularity to the movie.
For example, in the scene last night, when they rushed to the set, the paparazzi had already arrived at the scene.
I don’t know if his sense of smell is really that sensitive or if Zou Zhaolong found it in advance.
Anyway, the fight last night could not be concealed. In fact, it was impossible to conceal it. Before midnight last night, related reports had already appeared on the Internet.
This morning's newspapers even made this incident an entertainment headline, instantly setting off a sensation across Hong Kong.
"Chang Wei, who beat Lai Fu, was beaten this time~"
"Chang Wei, you said you don't know martial arts, ah, you really don't know martial arts?"
"Chang Wei's legs were broken, and his miserable state was like a blessing~"
The Hong Kong media has always been accustomed to talking nonsense, and this time is no exception, even if the target is Hong Kong people themselves.
Soon the whole story was revealed, and some tabloids were reporting how Hong Jinbao had instructed Zou Zhaolong to cause trouble.
At this time, Hong Jinbao had completely become a standard villain in the movie in public opinion, and he was the kind who hid behind the scenes and played dirty tricks.
"Fatty Hong is actually this kind of person~"
"Is this the big brother of the entertainment industry?"
Walking in the hospital corridor, you can hear the nurses talking from time to time.
When I arrived at the door of the ward, I could see through the window a guy eating inside. He was wearing a hospital gown.
Lu Yang pushed the door open: "Guo Fan, look, who's here to see you?"
After Lu Yang finished speaking, he moved aside, revealing Zhang Chen and the others behind him.
"Director Zhang, Director Lu, Brother Miao..."
Guo Fan on the bed was about to get up, so Lu Yang hurried over to calm him down.
"You must not move. It will take a hundred days for your injured bones to heal. You must take good care of yourself..."
Zhang Chen also comforted himself in this way. He had already recognized that the man with glasses in front of him was Guo Fan, the director of "The Wandering Earth" in later generations. He was just wondering why he appeared in his crew for no reason, and was even a script supervisor.
"How is it? Where are you hurt?" Zhang Chen asked.
"I was kicked in the chest yesterday. I had difficulty breathing at the time, but now I'm fine." Guo Fan said. Looking at him, it seemed that he was really fine.
"Luckily you are here, otherwise the crew would suffer a huge loss~"
"I remember you are a college student, how come you are in our crew?" Zhang Chen asked.
Guo Fan was surprised that the other party actually knew his background, but he just thought that the other party had learned about his information after being injured, so he didn't pay much attention to it and replied: "I graduated in 03, and after graduation I went to work for Travel Satellite TV.
I have always wanted to work in the film industry, but I never had any opportunities. Earlier this year, I saw Xingchen Entertainment recruiting people, so I came to try it out. Unexpectedly, I was selected.”
Zhang Chen thought to himself, as a law school graduate, applying for the position of script supervisor, of course you will be selected.
But he continued to ask, "Why, do you like movies very much?"
Guo Fan scratched his head: "Yes, I like it very much. When I was in school, I always regretted that I should have applied for Beijing Film Academy."
Zhang Chen smiled and said, "If you really apply to Beijing Film Academy, I might have to call you Senior Brother."
He remembered that Guo Fan was older than him, and seemed to be born in the 80s.
"Tell me, what do you like about movies?"
"Well, I like the feeling of creating something from nothing. Watching the script turn into pictures frame by frame in front of me gives me a great sense of accomplishment."
"Oh, then you should learn to be a director and turn the script into pictures. That's the director's job~"
Guo Fan scratched his head again in embarrassment: "Don't make fun of me, Director Zhang. I learned everything about movies by myself. This time I just want to see how a real movie is made..."
"What are you afraid of? Being a director is nothing special. It doesn't mean you can't be a director if you haven't learned it. There are so many great directors in Hong Kong, but how many of them are trained in the field? Many of them are latecomers~"
After hearing what Zhang Chen said, Guo Fan's eyes suddenly lit up.
The others smiled.
Zhang Chen then took out an envelope and said, "Guo Fan, this is the 100,000 yuan reward from the crew to thank you for your contribution to the crew. Please keep it. If you have any other needs, you can tell me, or tell Lu Yang."
"Really? Then can I make a request now?"
Zhang Chen didn't expect Guo Fan to really take advantage of the situation: "Okay, you say~"
"Can I start learning how to film from Director Lu Yang starting tomorrow?"
"Yes, of course. This is a good thing. Lu Yang, starting from tomorrow, Guo Fan will no longer be the script supervisor, but the assistant director. You can order him around..."
Afraid that Guo Fan didn't understand, he explained to him: "Assistant director is the most challenging position in the entire crew. If you do this well, you can learn a lot from it. Only if you do the job of assistant director well, you may grow into a director."
One step to the sky!
Xie Miao behind him was happy for him and secretly gave him a thumbs up.
Guo Fan was full of energy and spirit.
