"Welcome, welcome. There are scripts on the table. Take your pick." Zhang Wen didn't expect that Wang Jin would find such a great talent right away, and he was ready to start filming with him right away.
"Okay, let me take a look first." Wen Jun, who is not tall, is much more stable than Wang Jin.
"How is it? Have you thought about it? Which one are you going to shoot first? How is the team?" While Wenjun was choosing the script, Zhang Wenzhi asked Wang Jin.
Wang Jin said shyly, "Brother Wen, you know I just finished a gambling movie, so I'm quite interested in gambling movies. This is the script I wrote some time ago, why don't you take a look at it."
Chapter 10 Brothers Films (Please give me flowers)
"Oh~~~ Let me see." Zhang Wenzhi took the script from Wang Jin and flipped through it. In fact, he knew that this movie was basically plagiarized from the TV series he had written before.
"Isn't this the movie version of your gambling film? Will Uncle Six agree to it?" Zhang Wen asked with a smile.
"Well...I'll ask my dad to do it, it should be okay." Wang Jin was also a little uncertain.
"Why not film God of Gamblers?" asked Zhang Wenzhi.
"I... I'm afraid of losing money. Didn't you suggest using Afa as the leading actor? Afa's pay is not low now." Wang Jin lacked confidence.
“I heard someone was selling Ah Fat’s single-film contract for NT$100 million, and I’ve already bought it.
Let's just shoot God of Gamblers, and then ask your father to supervise the production, how about that?" Zhang Wen made the decision directly.
"Brother, from now on you are my real brother! Hahaha." Wang Jin was stunned after hearing this, and then he reacted immediately. He was so excited that he almost knelt down to Zhang Wenzhi.
"Okay, he won't be available until half a month later. And our company is undergoing renovations these days. I'll give you half a month to find all the people right away. Is that okay?" Zhang Wen said with a smile.
"No problem, it will work!" Wang Jin assured again and again.
After Wang Jin was dealt with, Wen Jun also picked out the scripts. He walked over and said, "I like these very much, but I don't have enough ability now, so I probably can't shoot them well. I'll just be an assistant director in A Jin's crew."
"Okay, no problem, but I'll still give you the director's contract. Whenever you want to shoot something, feel free to contact me." Zhang Wenzhi was very happy with Wenjun's caution.
"Okay, thank you, Brother Wen."
Half a month later, the newly decorated Brothers Film and Television Company opened in a low-key manner.
There are two floors with a total area of 800 square meters, which is quite large.
The first thing to do after opening the business was to meet the male and female protagonists.
"Ajin, I've read the script and it's really good. Are you sure Alian will be the heroine?" Afa asked uncertainly.
"Sure, the boss made the decision himself, so there will definitely be no problem." Wang Jin nodded.
"Okay, that's no problem for me. I've already adjusted my schedule and you can join the crew at any time." Ah Fa shook hands with Chen Yu Lian beside him and said happily.
"That's great. Wait a minute, the boss has gone to invite the actor who plays Daozi. He will be here soon." Wang Jin said with a smile on his face.
“Dong dong~~~”
There were two knocks on the door of the conference room. The first one to knock was Zhang Wen, followed by a handsome guy.
"Brother Fa, it's really Brother Fa, you didn't lie to me?" The handsome boy was excited when he saw Ah Fa.
"Why would I lie to you? By the way, the person you're acting with is Mi Xue. Do you have any other questions?" Zhang Wen said with a smile.
"No problem, no problem. Hello, Fa Ge. I'm Andy." Andy said enthusiastically when he came in front of Fa Ge.
"Hello, handsome boy!" Fa Ge also said with a smile.
"Okay, the leading actors have been confirmed. When will the filming start?" Zhang Wen asked Wang Jin.
Wang Jin looked at Andy, he was quite handsome but he didn't know how good his acting was. However, since he was chosen by the big boss, he couldn't say anything.
"No problem. I have found veteran actors for the other supporting roles. We will start shooting tomorrow," said Wang Jin.
"Okay, Afa, Huazai, I have something else to do, you guys chat." After saying that, Zhang Wen left.
Ah Fa looked at Zhang Wen who was leaving and asked Wang Jin curiously, "This is the big boss. Who is he? He is so young? He is so handsome. I thought he was Dao Zai just now."
"Hahaha, he really is good at playing with knives. I won't say any more. The filming starts at nine o'clock tomorrow morning. Don't be late." Wang Jin said with a smile.
"You are all the big guys in the gang. Now there is a business to make money. See if you want to join.
I contributed half of the 300 million yuan filming budget, or 150 million yuan.
If you don’t pay for the rest, I will pay for it all.
If you invest, the dividends will be distributed in proportion. "
The day before the filming started, Zhang Wen gathered all his men together on the fourth floor of Wen Ji Restaurant.
In fact, he had no pressure since he had invested all the money, but he wanted to provide benefits for his subordinates.
Because he can't just give out money for no reason, and such uneven distribution can easily make his younger brothers feel uncomfortable.
"Boss, this is the watch I bought last month. It cost me 10 yuan. Do you want to accept it?" Da Boyi took off the gold watch on his hand.
"OK, no problem."
"Boss, I still have 40 yuan in this card. I was planning to buy a house." Siyanqing has always been good at financial management and is considered the richest among Zhang Wen's former brothers.
"Boss, I also have 10 yuan." Lawyer Ming handed over a card.
The three childhood friends were very considerate and were obviously supporting him as the boss.
"Boss, I still have 20." Guilicai also handed over a card.
"Boss, I only have 5." Bo Zai searched his whole body and added up the money he collected today to finally get the 5.
"No problem, any amount is fine." Zhang Wen said with a smile.
"Boss, I'll invest 20." Wang, a mahjong friend who is in charge of small commodities, made a lot of money recently and generously took out all his assets.

Chapter 11 Dragon Five is online (seeking support for the new book!!!)
"Boss, why didn't you tell me earlier? I just bought a batch of liquor and used all the money." Wu Nan, who is in charge of one of the few entertainment venues in Tsuen Wan, had a look of regret on his face.
"It's okay, it's okay, then you just wait for next time." Zhang Wen said it was okay, but he had actually decided in his heart to take down Wu Nan.
The other brothers all had some problems.
Finally, Parker Xiong was left with an embarrassed look on his face. He said with a sad face, "Boss... I don't have any money."
"Haha, I know. How about I lend you 5 yuan? I'll give you 3% interest. Do you want to invest?" Zhang Wen asked with a smile.
"No problem, invest. Boss, take me to make money. I'd be a fool if I don't invest." Parking Xiong's face was full of surprise.
"Okay, brothers, support me. I will not let you lose money. As for how much profit we can make, we have to wait until the movie is released." Zhang Wen said.
“Boss, it’s okay if we lose money. It’s you who brought us to where we are today.” Dabaoyi said proudly.
"Yes, the other gangs are much poorer than us." Parker Xiong is well-informed.
"Okay, okay, midnight snack, midnight snack." Zhang Wen was very happy that his younger brothers were loyal.
The next morning, Zhang Wen arrived at the set under the escort of Dabaoyi.
Burning incense, worshiping gods, and cutting off the pig's head, after completing all the procedures.
Gao Jin appeared with his hair combed back.
The first scene is a bet with Japan's Kamiyama.
The most classic thing is the appearance of the girl with tattoos on her arms. Zhang Wen asked Wang Jin to invite the Japanese girl Nishikie Michi, a three-time bodybuilding champion.
Everything was filmed smoothly and is basically exactly the same as the original.
Until Long Wu appeared, Wang Jin was very dissatisfied with the actor who played Long Wu, and the filming progress was slowed down.
"Boss, I have a suggestion." Wang Jin found Zhang Wen who had been watching on the set.
"Who do you want to replace?" Zhang Wen asked.
"You, you are so handsome and cool, you are perfectly suitable." Wang Jin said.
"Just kidding, I can't act." Zhang Wen was stunned.
"Boss, just keep a cold face and don't say anything. This character needs to be cold and cool." Wang Jin continued to persuade.
Zhang Wen thought about it and realized that it was true. He was also a handsome guy.
"Okay, okay, I'm convinced." Zhang Wen nodded.
"Hurry, hurry, put on makeup and costumes." Wang Jin was overjoyed and immediately called people over.
After Zhang Wen finished dressing up and appeared in the scene, Wang Jin and Wang Tianlin looked at each other and nodded.
Awesome!
The filming progressed very quickly, and Wang Jin only spent one month, which happened to be Afa's schedule.
"Andy, how about signing a long-term contract? If this movie does well at the box office, we will make a sequel." After the filming was completed, Zhang Wen specifically found Andy and tempted him.
"Brother Wen, actually I want to sign up for TVB's artist training class to improve my acting skills." Andy said embarrassedly.
"Has no one told you that our brothers are also planning to run this class? We will invite veteran actors to teach." Zhang Wen said immediately.
"Really? That's great, I'll sign it then." Andy honestly said that he didn't want to leave either. He had seen his brothers' background and after filming a movie together, he could tell whether the script was good or bad.
"Okay, ten years. In the first three years, each film will earn between 50 and 100 million yuan, and other income from endorsements and advertisements will be split 64-55. In the middle three years, the film contract will be split 37- based on your status, and the last three will be split -." Zhang Wen explained the details of the contract.
"So good? It seems TVB only offers basic salary." Even Andy was surprised by such generous conditions.
"There is a dormitory upstairs, with free food and lodging, and you will also be provided with an agent and a nanny car." Zhang Wen continued.
"Boss, stop talking, stop talking, where is the contract, I'll sign it!" The conditions were too good, and Hua Zai had no reason to refuse. As long as he signed it quickly, he would move in.
After settling on Andy Lau, Zhang Wen found Ng Man-tat and Simon Yam.
Wu Mengda has just experienced bankruptcy and is at the lowest point in his life. It was Ah Fa's request that he be able to perform in the film, as he wanted to help his good brother.
Both of them signed long-term contracts without hesitation because the conditions were really good.
The Brothers Artist Training Class is officially open for enrollment. Ng Mengda and Simon Yam are both professionally trained and are fully qualified to be acting teachers. Zhang Wen also hired several other veteran actors to teach at a large sum of money.
Moreover, the Brothers Artist Training Class not only provides teaching, but also provides free food and accommodation, which is unique in Hong Kong and immediately attracted many handsome men and beautiful women to sign up.
Chapter 12: God of Gamblers (begging for flowers)
38 Queensway, Hong Kong Island, Hong Kong, the location of the Hong Kong High Court.
Early in the morning, Daboyi drove Zhang Wen here, and then he also stayed beside the boss in a neat suit.
"He Fugui, after deliberation by the jury, was found not guilty of murder but guilty of manslaughter. He is sentenced to three years in prison with no parole during his sentence."
After the judge read out the verdict, Zhang Wen stood up and gave a thumbs-up towards the iron fence in the courtroom.
He Fugui, who was in prison, was so moved that he burst into tears, and then left under the guidance of the bailiff.
Looking at He Fugui being taken away, Zhang Wen met the lawyer Ming who was walking over, patted him on the shoulder, and walked behind him.
"Mr. He, you shouldn't show off!" Zhang Wen said with a smile.
"You're welcome. I did receive the money, too." Mr. He said with a smile.
"Money is money, favors are favors. By the way, this is a letter of appointment, the legal advisor of Brothers Film and Television Company." Zhang Wen handed over a document.
He Dazhuang's eyes lit up and he said happily, "Okay, no problem."
Lawyer Ho is a famous barrister in Hong Kong. He is well-versed in his profession and his fees are not low. He is the queen lawyer of the society and specializes in handling criminal cases for the society. Lawyer Ming is now following him to learn.
Zhang Wen’s future business will more or less involve legal matters, and it is certainly impossible for him to ask the society for help every time.
So he just handed in the offer letter. The salary was only 100 million a year, and he could earn it back in a few days.
After leaving the court, Zhang Wen went to the Peninsula Hotel.
God of Gamblers has been completed, and the next step is to arrange its release. As for the theaters where the film will be released, Zhang Wen actually prefers Jiahe Cinemas.
But Wang Jin insisted on going to his sixth uncle to show off.
As a big boss, you must support your younger brothers.
Zhang Wen had no choice but to invite Uncle Shao Liu to a banquet and prepare to release the film in Shao’s cinema chain.
After waiting for a while with Wang Jin and his son, Uncle Shao Liu arrived at the private room of the Peninsula Hotel on time.
"Hello, Sixth Uncle! I'm Zhang Wen." Zhang Wen took the initiative to stretch out his hands.
"I know you, Xizaiwen. You're a good young man with a lot of courage. I've seen the finished film and Ajin did a good job. I heard that you wrote the script?" Uncle Shao Liu said with a smile.
"I just wrote it randomly." Zhang Wen said modestly.
"Haha, then how about you write a few books for my Shao family?" Uncle Shao laughed.
