The Chief Detective Inspector is dead. I'm now the top police officer in Hong Kong!

Chapter 79 White Tiger Star's Fortune (77) Requesting first subscription, monthly tickets, and rewards.

The entertainment industry is a quick way to make money, with a large capital base, and is rife with drugs, sex, power, and money.

There is no clean entertainment industry in the world; they are all competing to be the worst. Hong Kong's entertainment industry, which injects a lot of dirty money to achieve development, is even more murky.

But this doesn't stop Hong Kong's entertainment industry from developing rapidly. Because a large number of talents and capital are coming for power, sex, and money.

Beneath the road paved with gold lies mud and bones.

After Xiao Xianhui sat down, he ordered an iced lemon tea and began to observe the relationship between Li Shaifeng and Lin Tiansheng. He tentatively asked, "May I ask, Mr. Lin, are you Miss Li's cousin?"

"Friend," Lin Tiansheng said with a smile, revealing nothing, "Director Xiao, have you prepared the contract?"

Xiao Xianhui, harboring suspicion, took out a contract from his bag and handed it over, saying, "Mr. Lin, this is a Class B artist contract from Lishi. Please take a look."

ATV, or ATV for short, was the earliest Chinese-language pay television station in Hong Kong. It started broadcasting in 1957 and was the first Chinese-language television station in all of Asia.

It wielded considerable influence throughout Southeast Asia and was the predecessor of ATV, rivaling TVB in Hong Kong. However, TVB preemptively won the "Broadway Television" license, quickly gaining a large number of clients and implementing a free-to-air policy, becoming an industry pioneer, with many of its programs achieving higher ratings than ATV.

Currently, ATV has also canceled its subscription service, and is fiercely competing with TVB. The two sides are copying each other's programs and dramas, poaching talent with high salaries, and cultivating a large number of artists, directors, and monitors.

Many artists are happy to work with ATV because ATV's contracts are more lenient than TVB's.

Second-tier artist contracts are mostly issued to extras, and the terms are very lenient.

Lin Tiansheng flipped through it and found it acceptable. Perhaps it was because there was a competitive market, which was more ethical than during the monopoly period. However, he pointed to one clause and said, "Within three years, all commercial performances outside the station must be approved by the TV station, and they will take a 50% cut. Isn't that a bit excessive?"

Xiao Xianhui gave a wry smile: "Inspector Lin, it's all standard contracts. There are plenty of actors for TV dramas, why would they choose you?"

"I have faith in you because I hope you can make money."

Lin Tiansheng remained noncommittal, then put down the contract: "The pumping can remain the same, but let's shorten the time to one year."

A year later, "The Land of Love" had finished airing, and Li Shaifeng, with her outstanding image, had no shortage of film offers, so there was no need for her to continue to give money to ATV.

Just like Liu Yifei after starring in "Chinese Paladin" and Chow Yun-fat after filming "Shanghai Bund," whether they can become hugely famous is one thing, but they always want to act.

"Forget it, Inspector Lin. Let's work together again next time." Xiao Xianhui took back the contract and decided to leave. He couldn't afford to mess with plainclothes detectives, but couldn't he at least avoid them?

As a big shot in the nightlife scene, Siu Hin-fai, nicknamed "Young Master," had already noticed the subtle relationship between Lam Tin-sing and Lee Shai-fung. With the police protecting him, there was no need to force the issue. After calming down, he stood firm and refused to change the contract.

Although director Hsiao Hsien-hui was willing to plead for them and explain to the production director that changing the year wasn't a big deal, he was still dreaming if they wouldn't even sleep together!

Lin Tiansheng didn't want to miss an opportunity for Li Shaifeng to succeed. Seeing Xiao Xianhui get up, he couldn't help but smile and say, "Director Xiao, don't rush off. Make a call when you have time and ask someone what I do for a living."

"Is it worth changing one of them?"

Xiao Xianhui asked in bewilderment, "Aren't you from the Major Crimes Unit?"

However, he was quite flexible. Receiving the hint, he picked up his mobile phone, immediately went to the window to make a call. After asking a few simple questions, his expression changed drastically. He hurriedly hung up the phone, returned to the table, and readily said, "No problem, change the time to one year."

Young talents may lack a deep understanding of society, but they are often very receptive to advice. While the Five Poisons Detective was at the height of his power, he was still studying, yet that didn't stop him from being humble and subservient.

Filming a TV series is a complicated process. Ordinary plainclothes officers, whose power is limited to their jurisdiction, don't need to be arrested. But a police officer with connections can order uniformed officers to work on the streets with just a word, turning a three-month production into a six-month production, resulting in losses far exceeding tens of thousands of yuan.

Lin Tiansheng may not be good at directing TV dramas, but he can definitely prevent TV drama productions from succeeding, and power is the best protection for artists in the entertainment industry.

Lin Tiansheng dared to send Li Shaifeng to film a movie, he didn't intend to ignore her, and he certainly wouldn't come to the rescue at the last minute.

By clearly outlining his backing, Ah Feng can avoid a lot of harassment. "Thank you, Director Xiao."

Li Shaifeng stared blankly as the director took out a pen, crossed out the clauses, made modifications, and then added a note and signature.

Xiao Xianhui handed over the contract and said with a smile, "No need to thank me, it was just a small favor. It's an honor to know Mr. Lin."

Lin Tiansheng gestured for Ah Feng to sign the papers, lit a cigarette, and said with a smile, "You're welcome, Director Xiao. If anyone causes trouble on set, feel free to call me anytime."

"Call the West Kowloon Organisation (ODI) police hotline."

Xiao Xianhui raised an eyebrow, surprised by the unexpected gain, and said happily, "Great! With Lin Sir's help, the filming will definitely go smoothly."

I initially thought Lin Tiansheng was just there to show off, but the fact that he went to the trouble of closing the photo booth suggests he really wants to promote Ah Feng for a long-term career in the entertainment industry.

Using a small clause to make a friend in the police force seems like a bargain. In other situations, connecting with a police officer with connections is much more difficult.

"I'm no expert in filming TV dramas, so Ah Feng will need Director Xiao's guidance," Lin Tiansheng said. Xiao Xianhui tactfully replied, "I treat Ah Feng like a younger sister, so I'll definitely teach her properly."

The intention to avoid the issue was quite obvious in their words.

Lin Tiansheng laughed continuously as he personally escorted Xiao Xianhui out of the hotel and into his car. Li Shaifeng retrieved her bag of clothes at the front desk and waited quietly for Lin Tiansheng to return.

"What are you doing? Aren't you leaving yet?" Lin Tiansheng waited at the door for a long time, but no one came out. He went back to the front desk and couldn't help but feel a little impatient.

"Let's go, let's go." Li Shaifeng gripped the bag's drawstring and turned to walk towards the elevator. Lin Tiansheng, leaning on the counter, looked at her with interest and called out, "Which way to?"

"Go to the hotel room." Li Shaifeng stopped and turned around.

"Crazy, let's go home."

Lin Tiansheng laughed and cursed, then waved and walked out of the hotel. Li Shaifeng was quite frightened and quickly ran after him, getting into the passenger seat of the Chevrolet. She carefully explained, "I... I thought we were going to stay at a hotel."

"We don't have that much money." Lin Tiansheng chuckled as he turned the steering wheel, while Li Shaifeng looked embarrassed and couldn't laugh out loud.

Back in her office at Rongchang Building, Li Shaifeng put down the bag and habitually reached for a broom.

Who enjoys watching a schoolgirl in a short skirt, with curled bangs, stockings, and leather shoes doing cleaning?

Lin Tiansheng said, "Stop working, wash your face, and go to sleep."

Since the remnants of the gang have officially inherited the power, it's only natural that the mistress should also be officially accepted. Otherwise, she'll just be doing free work for the former Five Poisons Detective, taking the blame, and leaving the younger brother to go hungry.

That makes absolutely no sense.

Li Shaifeng looked somewhat flustered as she stood in the hall and suddenly said, "Brother Sheng, there's something I want to tell you."

“Go ahead and say it,” Lin Tiansheng replied.

Li Shaifeng kept her head down, her voice barely audible, and after speaking, she asked, "You won't think I'm unlucky, will you?"

Lin Tiansheng waved his hand: "Come in, let me take a look at you. The master said that my White Tiger Star was turning my luck around, but it really didn't grow. I'll give you a raise next month."
