HK Composite: Starting from Shenghe Leading

Chapter 531 One song, one million!

Nowadays, no one would be annoyed if someone just pushes the door open and walks in, let alone celebrities who value privacy the most.

Mei Yanfang sat in the center C position, wearing casual clothes and light makeup, which was very different from her image on stage.

She looked very capable with her short hair, a lady's cigarette in her left hand and a glass of foreign wine in the other.

There always seems to be a melancholy in those big eyes.

Next to her is her assistant Wang Minhui.

"I'll attack your mother!"

"How can you survive in this world if you don't even recognize Bald Brother?"

The bald guy didn't even need to say anything, the younger brothers behind him took a few steps forward, their words full of arrogance.

When the two men heard and saw this, and looked at the tattoos on their bodies, they immediately shut their mouths and subconsciously took a few steps back.

For them, every time this happens, their sense of identification with the identity of Young and Dangerous reaches its maximum.

The frightened eyes of the onlookers and their subconscious retreat steps are what they are proud of.

After making sure that his younger brother had the situation under control, the bald guy looked around, taking in everyone's expressions, and finally locked his sights on Mei Yanfang. He slowly walked up to her and said, "Miss Mei, my boss is Huang Weilang, he is in the next box."

"I heard that Miss Mei is here, so I came here specially to invite you over for a chat."

"As long as you come, I will pay for your consumption today."

The bald guy was quite good at talking. He not only stated his identity but also gave Mei Yanfang a way out so as not to make the situation too awkward.

After all, his job was just to invite people over. If he said something too harsh, made the relationship too awkward, or messed up the job, it would seem that he was incompetent.

Mei Yanfang took a puff of cigarette, exhaled a puff of smoke, and winked at Wang Minhui standing beside her.

As personal assistants, they naturally had a tacit understanding. She immediately stood up and said apologetically, "Excuse me, sir. Our Ah Fang is not feeling well today. How about we meet another day?"

Although Wang Minhui is just an assistant, she has a pretty face, otherwise she would not have been involved in scandals with Nicholas Tse in the future.

Of course, these are all things that will happen in the future, so let’s not discuss this matter for now.

"To be a gangster is nothing more than being carried by everyone in a fancy sedan. You give me face, I give you face, and everyone is happy."

"I'm giving you face now, but you're treating me like a fool. Miss Mei smokes and drinks, and you actually told me she's not feeling well."

"From what I see, you just don't take me seriously, or do you think I'm easy to talk to?"

The bald guy didn't give any face at all. He glared and yelled, scaring the men who had stood up earlier.

Wang Minhui quickly waved her hands to explain, "Boss, we really don't mean that..."

"It's just that Anita is really not feeling well today. How about we personally toast Mr. Huang a glass of wine as an apology?"

As someone in the circle, Wang Minhui was naturally familiar with Huang Weilang. However, now that the Number Gang had been disbanded, his status as the leader was naturally not as valuable as before, so they didn't need to care too much.

Nowadays, who among those who can make it in the entertainment industry doesn’t have someone to back them up?
Mei Yanfang also has a big boss backing her up, but he needs to be used at critical moments. If she bothers him over trivial matters, the relationship will gradually become worthless.

Wang Minhui understands this principle.

"Okay, let's go over there first. My boss never likes to wait for people."

The bald guy doesn't care about the specific details. As long as he can "invite" the person over, the rest of the matter has nothing to do with him.

Besides, once it’s over, won’t they still have the final say on what to do and how to do it?

"Okay, Anita, let's go."

Wang Minhui and Mei Yanfang exchanged glances, and the latter did not say anything, but just nodded.

As a star, a Hong Kong star, it is very normal to encounter such things.

If you haven't met him, there is only one reason: you are not popular enough.

Nowadays, social societies and the entertainment industry are, in a sense, completely tied together.

It has been better in recent years, but in the early 1980s, many societies would force celebrities to act in movies at gunpoint.

It is said that when Wei Longhao approached Chow Yun-fat to film "A Better Tomorrow", it was his right-hand man Da Liqiang who brought Black Star to the project.

Of course, this is just rumored.

Even Hutchison Entertainment, the largest company in Hong Kong's entertainment industry today, has a community background, so there is no need to say more about the rest.

Therefore, there was no emotion in Mei Yanfang's eyes. She simply fixed her makeup and followed the bald man and others to the next door.

As soon as they entered the box, the gangsters widened their eyes and started whistling and making a noise.

"Big star, welcome, welcome. You look even better in person than on TV."

"Oh, with this figure and this face, she is indeed a beautiful girl. If I can enjoy her for a while, my life will not be lived in vain."

"Look at her. Even when she rolls her eyes, she's still so charming and attractive. Even if she's not a celebrity, she'd definitely be a top star if she worked in a stable!"

"..."

The dirty words of the gangsters drowned Mei Yanfang like snowflakes, making her look ugly immediately, but she couldn't get angry.

Fortunately, Huang Weilang finally spoke up to stop them, "What are you doing? Do you know that this is a big star and needs respect?"

"You guys act like you've never seen a woman before. Don't mention being with me when you go out. I can't afford to lose face like this!"

To be fair, Huang Weilang looks very ordinary. He has neither the aura of a gangster nor the shrewdness of a businessman. Instead, he has a weird temperament that is in between the two.

"Mr. Huang, nice to meet you. I'd like to toast you."

Seeing the smoky air in the house and women's underwear scattered on the floor, Mei Yanfang didn't want to stay any longer and just wanted to leave immediately after toasting.

"No hurry. Since this is our first meeting, why would we start drinking right away?"

"I've long heard that Miss Mei's singing voice is like heavenly music. Why don't you sing a song for us brothers? It will open our eyes."

"After all, it's rare to have the opportunity to watch a big star perform so closely."

Huang Weilang looked Mei Yanfang up and down, not hiding the aggression in his eyes at all.

Seeing their boss speak, the gangsters also started to make a fuss.

"That's right, Miss Mei, please sing one, everyone likes your singing very much."

"That's right, this opportunity is rare, you must show your favor."

"It would be better if you could sing and dance at the same time, just like you do on TV!"

As they talked, they also used body movements, and some even performed pile-driving on the spot, causing others to make strange noises, and the atmosphere instantly reached a climax.

Hearing this, Mei Yanfang couldn't help herself anymore, she put down the glass she was about to raise, and said coldly: "Excuse me Mr. Huang, I came here today to relax, to spend money, to relieve my mood."

"I am a consumer today, not a performer for people."

"So, I can't meet your request. If Mr. Huang likes my performance, I can reserve some front row tickets for you and your brothers at my next concert."

After saying that, Mei Yanfang was about to leave, but was stopped by the gangsters.

"What do you mean? Do you think you're great because you're a star?" "Do you know who my boss is? He's the leader of Liyi Xin! He asked you to sing because he's giving you face, don't you understand?"

The younger brothers pointed at Mei Yanfang and scolded her loudly with an extremely arrogant attitude.

In their eyes, celebrities are nothing special, they are just a little rare.

Moreover, past experience has taught them that celebrities are often easier to deal with than ordinary people because their weaknesses are so obvious.

"Hey, how do you talk?"

"Miss Mei must have drunk too much just now, she was just talking drunkenly."

"Miss Mei, isn't that right?"

Huang Weilang raised his hand to stop his younger brothers' behavior and spoke meaningfully to Mei Yanfang.

"Mr. Huang, Ah Mei..."

Wang Minhui had just said a few words when she was interrupted by Huang Weilang, who asked sharply, “Did I ask you?”

"Do you understand the rules?"

"I'm talking here, why are you interrupting me?"

A series of questions silenced Wang Minhui.

She wanted to say more, but was stopped by Mei Yanfang, "Mr. Huang, I drank today, but I am not drunk."

"If you want to make friends, I welcome you with open arms."

"But if you insist on me singing today, I'm sorry I can't agree."

Mei Yanfang had just become very popular, and her personality had always been one of being soft-hearted, so of course she would not tolerate such humiliation.

In terms of wealth, property, and status, she has long been out of the circle of ordinary people.

If she bows her head today, similar things will definitely happen more and more in the future.

We are all human beings, who doesn’t have a temper?

What's more, she is a star and a public figure.

"If you don't accept my toast, I think you don't want to leave this box today!"

The bald man was just speaking when he was interrupted by Huang Weilang's eyes. He reached into his arms, took out a checkbook, picked up a pen, wrote a string of numbers on it, and pushed it in front of Mei Yanfang.

"Three hundred thousand for one song!"

"As long as you sing any song, the three hundred thousand will be yours."

"Based on your current appearance fee, it must be much higher, right?"

With things turning out like this, Huang Weilang can't just let it go.

If he can't force Mei Yanfang to bow her head today, how can he continue to survive in the world? Who will take him seriously?
What's more, now that he has just left the Number Gang and established Li Yi Xin, it is time to establish his authority.

In this case, no matter what, he could not let Mei Yanfang leave easily.

Sometimes, things are just like this. Originally, no one might want to make a big deal out of it, but when things get to this point, they have no choice but to go ahead with it.

Both sides have reasons not to bow their heads.

After all, public opinion is really terrible. If you take a step back, your reputation will collapse directly. An industry that relies on reputation cannot withstand such a loss.

"Mr. Huang, let me say it again, I am not here to sing for money today."

Mei Yanfang was very tough. She didn't even look at the check and directly rejected it.

As long as she is willing, with her current popularity, it would be very easy for her to make three hundred thousand, there is no need to do it in this way.

Huang Weilang didn't say anything, but signed another check in the same way, but the amount was changed to 700,000.

"Seven hundred thousand for one song, isn't that too much?"

Seven hundred thousand!
Hearing this number, even the younger brothers stared at the check on the table with their eyes shining!
This number may not be a big deal for rich people, but it is definitely a huge sum of money in this era.

With the current housing prices, you can start with just two houses.

"Mr. Huang, if you insist on doing this, I will have no choice but to leave."

Mei Yanfang still refused, and there was no room for negotiation in her words.

The current situation is no longer a question of how much money is.

If word got out that she was singing for a few hundred thousand dollars at such an occasion, she would not only lose her face, but also her status.

The reason why stars become stars is, to a certain extent, because of their rarity.

You can perform for anyone in any occasion as long as they pay you. What's so special about it?

"Good, it has character!"

Huang Weilang praised him and then signed another check.

And this time the number is one million!

Seeing so many zeros on it, the little brothers' breathing immediately became rapid, and their eyes seemed to be welded on it, not moving at all.

If we give them this money, any hesitation for a second would be an insult to one million!
Not to mention one million, even if it's one hundred thousand, no, even if it's ten thousand for a song, they can sing Huang Weilang until he goes bankrupt!

"One million, one song."

"Isn't it an insult to you to offer this price?"

"Perhaps, after this matter gets out, it will become a good story."

Huang Weilang actually didn't want to make things too ugly, because he knew who the big boss behind Mei Yanfang was.

That's why he kept increasing the stakes, both to give Mei Yanfang a way out and to avoid losing face after the news got out.

As long as Mei Yanfang nodded in agreement, from a certain perspective, it would be a happy ending for both parties.

She got money and status, and Huang Weilang got face.

If the news gets out, it will become the following version: Have you heard that Huang Weilang invited Mei Yanfang to sing and gave her one million just for one song!

It not only highlights Huang Weilang's strength, but also indirectly reflects Mei Yanfang's popularity.

Unfortunately, Mei Yanfang didn't think so.

"Mr. Huang, I'll say this one last time. I'm not short of money. One million may be a lot for others, but it's really nothing to me."

"I've been performing on stage since I was four and a half years old. I've seen all kinds of things. You can't scare me."

"If you want, I'll give you a million and you can sing a song for me, how about that?"

Even a clay man would have some temper, let alone Anita Mui who is very popular in Hong Kong Island at this stage?

Besides, she had someone to back her up, and after being humiliated all night, she immediately exploded.
