The world begins with Hong Kong movies

Chapter 738 The pressure is immense! (Seeking monthly votes)

"Brother Hua, it looks like we won't be able to film today!"

After finding out what was going on, the trusted assistant returned with a displeased expression and delivered some bad news.

"Then let's call it a day early!"

Dehua's expression wasn't good either, but he didn't get angry or take it out on the people around him.

After he got into his car and left, Wu Aiguo came over and asked curiously, "Why did you seem to be in such a bad mood when you met the boss? Did our company invest money in this film?"

"no!"

The trusted assistant shook his head and said, "Brother Hua is worried that the filming progress here will affect his future plans!"

"What plans can you have?"

While helping pack up, Wu Aiguo chuckled and said, "Anyway, we're all filming at the same time, why make it sound so nice?"

"Don't you know that telling the truth isn't popular?"

While they were talking, a group of Skyfilm employees had already packed up and left the still noisy film set quickly, ignoring the chaos.

"This is too chaotic!"

As Wu Aiguo got on the secondhand motorcycle, he subconsciously glanced towards the film set. Just then, he saw several cries of pain coming from there, and Zhen Yuanzhai's swaying figure leaving.

This old guy is a master of playing dumb to outsmart others!
Wu Aiguo couldn't help but chuckle, then started his motorcycle and followed his colleagues in their car.

By the time I got back to the company, it was already evening.

While the boss, Dehua, had his own activities, the company's employees gathered at a nearby tea restaurant for a meal, where they chatted about entertainment gossip.

Wu Aiguo wasn't very interested in this!
In the smartphone era that followed, all the scandals in Hong Kong's entertainment industry were thoroughly exposed.

Wu Aiguo may not know everything, but he has heard of quite a few.

Without the goddess filter, I naturally have little interest in their gossip.

As for male celebrities, needless to say.

The "Double Chow and One Jackie" trio has already taken shape, leaving all other male stars struggling to rise above their circumstances.

However, the Hong Kong film and television industry has begun to gradually decline.

Soon, the American film "Jurassic Park" will be released to great acclaim, dealing a heavy blow to the Hong Kong film industry.

Those top-tier industrial blockbuster films had a huge impact on the film industry in Hong Kong at that time, which was still operating on a small-scale, workshop-style model.

The key point is that it directly raised the viewing standards of audiences in Hong Kong and Southeast Asia, which is the most crucial factor.

In the future, the possibility of simply throwing together a few celebrities and casually producing a decent but not outstanding film will no longer exist.

Of course, if Hong Kong films find their niche, they can maintain their popularity for a long time.

"Does our company frequently encounter situations like this?"

Wu Aiguo was more interested in this.

As far as he knew, while Hong Kong triads in the normal timeline were rampant, they weren't this insane.

"It's only in recent years that those gangsters have become increasingly unruly!"

Upon hearing this, several colleagues around him immediately began to complain indignantly, as this matter clearly affected their vital interests.

No doubt!
Teamwork Motion Pictures, to put it simply, is a company established around its boss, Andy Lau, with everything revolving around his film career.

Given Andy Lau's character, whenever the company invests in him or a movie he stars in becomes a big hit, he will inevitably receive a red envelope (cash gift).

Sometimes, the red envelopes can even exceed the normal salary.

Unfortunately, by the time Wu Aiguo joined Sky Film Company, he had never encountered such good fortune. It wasn't that the boss was stingy, but rather that he had to pay off his debts first.

"Boss, we're still a bit behind the likes of Chow Yun-fat, Stephen Chow, and Jackie Chan. It would be great if we could film a few more 'Lee Rock' movies!"

"This is unreliable. It's such a shame that the original 'Lei Luo Biography' only lasted two parts!"

"Hehe, Hong Kong has had so many legendary figures over the years, why not just make a few more movies like this?"

"This is a difficult situation. Most of the real-life figures who inspired those movies are still alive. Who knows what they're thinking?"

Wu Aiguo listened quietly, showing no intention of actively participating.

He had many ideas, and at this moment he couldn't help but speak them out.

"A legendary figure doesn't necessarily have to be a big shot!"

Seeing his colleagues looking at him, he chuckled and said, "For example, those high-profile murder cases can all be adapted into movies!"

"Wu Zai's idea is quite good!"

"I think it's great too, we can recommend it to Brother Hua!"

"If it succeeds, as long as we can make money, we can totally make a movie series on the top ten unsolved cases in Hong Kong!"

"Not only bizarre cases, but also some strange rumors could be made into movies. I believe there would be quite a few viewers!"

"Speaking of strange things, the recent massacre of an entire family was quite bizarre!"

"Yes, the whole family was killed, including the bodyguards and the nanny. It's absolutely inhuman, yet they haven't made a sound!"

"It must have been done by a mastermind, otherwise it's really hard to explain!"

"Which expert is so skilled that they were able to sneak into a mansion guarded by more than a dozen bodyguards without making a sound and kill all the truly good people?"

As they talked, the conversation started to veer off-topic.

Listening to their argument, Wu Aiguo suddenly thought of Zhen Yuanzhai, whom he had met earlier that day.

Since Chin Gentsai has appeared, it's clear that several powerful fighters with enough strength to participate in the King of Fighters tournament are hidden in Hong Kong's underworld.

For example, the bespectacled fat man in "Fatal Fury" is a true master.

Just then, an emergency news report suddenly appeared on the large color TV screen hanging on the wall of the tea restaurant.

Wu Aiguo happened to see a blurry video of a murder scene.

A man completely shrouded in black, even wearing a black mask, disappeared from the scene like a gust of wind.

Wu Aiguo's eyes narrowed slightly, and he was quite shocked.

If he wasn't mistaken, the man in black in the picture was definitely faster than the 100-meter sprinters in the Olympics!
Otherwise, there wouldn't be only a fleeting glimpse of him in the picture.

Damn, could it be another master who likes to hide his identity?
Wu Aiguo was not feeling well at this moment.

He felt immense pressure!

Zhen Yuanzhai and another black-clad expert were clearly far superior to him at this moment.

If you accidentally run into them, wouldn't you get instantly killed?

Just thinking about that possibility makes my heart pound wildly, and the next moment I feel extremely dry-mouthed and uncomfortable.

For some reason, while feeling immense pressure, he also felt a surge of excitement, as if he longed to spar with a master.

After finishing his meal, Wu Aiguo politely declined some colleagues' invitations to go to nightclubs. He then returned to the company with practiced ease, closed all the doors and windows, and prepared to go to sleep.
