Dreams of the Fragrant River

In the summer of 1993, the Hong Kong stock market continued to be hot. ∮∮, the Hang Seng Index has continued to grow for five consecutive years, and this year, the increase has suddenly increased. People who basically do not understand stocks can just follow the trend and buy a hot stock, and they can make a fortune without any effort.

Compared with the bull market in Hong Kong that lasted for more than five years, the Hong Kong film industry is much more tragic.

Due to the poor box office in the summer season, several major theater companies have been affected.

Chen Rongmei was the first to make a move. This gentleman has two cinema chains: one is the Xinbao cinema chain he built with one hand, and the other is the Jinsheng cinema chain, which was renamed after buying Princess Jin.

In the past few years, when Hong Kong films were prosperous, Chen Rongmei's theater chain could be said to be making gold every day. However, since the beginning of this year, the profitability of the theater chain has not been optimistic. Until several consecutive films in the summer program were coldly received, the two theater chains under Chen Rongmei began to suffer large losses.

Xinbao Cinema Line was founded by Chen Rongmei and others. Partners from Nanyang and Hong Kong have withdrawn their shares one after another, leaving Chen Rongmei alone crying. In desperation, Chen Rongmei had to shut down some cinemas with poor locations and outdated equipment, and then merged Xinbao and Jinsheng into one cinema line, reducing the number of cinemas by one-third.

Not only Xinbao and Jinsheng, but several other major cinema companies in Hong Kong have also made adjustments, and some theaters with poor profitability have been closed.

The same is true for Kang Jianfei's Oriental Cinema Company. Except for the Taiping Cinema, all the old one-hall cinemas are closed. After some adjustments, there are only 22 cinemas under the Oriental Cinema Line (Hong Kong).

In terms of entertainer's salary, the salary of ordinary actors has not changed much, but the salary of stars has shrunk significantly. Stars like Liu Dehua who rely on Taiwan's box office market are inflated. The remuneration has all dropped below 10 million, because Hong Kong films have become less popular in Taiwan.

Now the Hong Kong star with a salary of more than 10 million. In addition to Cheng Long and Zhou Xingchi, Li Lianjie and Liang Jiahui were also added.

Due to the adverse market sales of the two "Fang Shiyu". Li Lianjie's remuneration did not drop but increased, finally breaking the 10 million mark for the first time. And Tony Leung is because he starred in "Jurassic Park". This blockbuster with a global box office of 900 million US dollars has made his net worth skyrocket. Many European and American film companies have invited him to make films. With Leung Ka Fai's popularity in the European and American markets, his Hong Kong The remuneration is stable at more than 12 million.

As for Zhou Runfa, he and Wu Yusen went to the United States to film "Changing Faces". It is not clear whether his salary will increase or decrease.

For other first-line stars, their salary has basically dropped by more than 500,000. This is determined by the market. It's useless for the stars to complain, haven't you seen so many cinemas closed?

Faced with this situation, the bosses of many film production companies have begun to think differently.

For example, Luo Jiecheng of Yonggao Film Company. The boss was originally from Macau. He took over Pan Disheng's film company and theater chain two years ago, and invited Huang Baiming to jointly establish Yonggao Film Company and Yonggao Theater chain.

After Huang Baiming left Yonggao, Luo Jiecheng was simply a film amateur, and Yonggao Film Company has been losing money. This year, Luo Jiecheng has made a lot of money in the Hong Kong stock market. But it failed miserably in the movie market.

Wanchai, Hong Kong, a nightclub.

Peng Qihua sat on the sofa cautiously, and he didn't care about the two accompanying girls beside him. He said embarrassedly, "Mr. Luo. 5 million can't really please Liang Jiahui, and at least 5 million must be added."

Roger Cheng said impatiently, "How old is Liang Jiahui? 10 million Laozi might as well go and invite Zhou Xingchi."

Peng Qihua reluctantly explained: "If you ask Tony Leung to make films, they usually plan to sell them in Europe and the United States. After he starred in "Jurassic Park", foreigners recognize his face. I talked to Tony Leung several times. He is willing to drop 200 10,000 yuan, 10 million yuan really can't be any lower."

It is said that Liang Jiahui's situation is also very embarrassing. His salary offer in Hollywood has reached $6 million. But the quotation is just a quotation. As a Chinese actor, Tony Leung really has no good role to play in Hollywood, and can only continue to develop in Hong Kong.

Converting 6 million US dollars into Hong Kong dollars is nearly 50 million. Naturally, Hong Kong film companies cannot afford so much, so they have to regard him as a top star, and the salary is set at more than 12 million Hong Kong dollars.

But even so, there are not many people who ask Tony Leung to make movies, because the asking price is too high, it is better to invite Zhou Xingchi - Zhou Xingchi is more sought after by fans in Chinese-speaking areas.

The value is very high, but no one can afford it. This is the embarrassing situation that Tony Leung is facing now. He has already lowered his salary to 10 million, but there are still no film appointments to take.

Roger Cheng took a cigar and said, "Then please invite Liu Dehua, you can invite him for 5 million."

Peng Qihua twitched the corners of his mouth, squeezed out a smile and said, "Mr. Luo, I really can't do anything about this, I'm afraid you need to invite me."

Luo Jie Cheng took a sip of wine and said, "No problem, the hero and heroine have been decided, and Liu Dehua and Liu Jialing will play the roles."

Peng Qihua couldn't help reminding: "Mr. Luo, Jialing Liu has joined the Oriental Brokerage Company, so it's not as messy as before."

Roger Cheng frowned and scolded: "It's **** Kang Jianfei again! Don't worry, I'll take care of this."

"Mr. Luo, then I'll leave first." Peng Qihua reluctantly got up and left. He is just a word, otherwise one day an accident will be wronged.

Don't look at Luo Jiecheng as a serious businessman, this guy's foundation is not innocent. In another time and space, the "Tiger of Wanchai" based on Chen Yaoxing was filmed by Roger Cheng's famous director. This person has many connections with Xinyi An, and some people even suspect that he is a member of Macau Xinyi An.

In the past few years, Luo Jiecheng has been in constant lawsuits, accused of violently recovering advertising fees, using bad checks, etc., as well as being suspected of intimidating others. Later, he was ambushed and cut three times in Tsim Sha Tsui, and he was imprisoned for two years in Macau. It was not until 2000 that he became a rich man in Hong Kong.

After Peng Qihua left the private room of the nightclub, Wanchai Tiger Chen Yaoxing came in with a bottle and asked with a smile, "Brother Cheng, are you having a good time? I'll call you two more girls?"

"No need." Luo Jie Cheng helped Chen Yaoxing to fill a cup. Said, "Ahu. I want to ask you something."

Chen Yaoxing took a drink and said, "What about the Tao?"

Luo Jie Cheng asked, "Is this Kang Jianfei having a good relationship with Mr. Xiang?"

Chen Yaoxing shook his head and said, "I'm not very clear. What are you asking him for? It's not because you want to attack him. It's impossible."

Chen Yaoxing is also a person who is not afraid of heaven and earth. He is not afraid of Kang Jianfei, but of the British Hong Kong government.

Hong Kong's social organizations are very powerful, but there is an unwritten rule, that is, not to start with the wealthy who are doing serious business. You hack people, collect protection fees, and the police just turn a blind eye and pass by, but once you move those wealthy people in the ranks, the guns in the hands of the Royal Police are not toys.

The gangsters who really intimidated and kidnapped Hong Kong's richest people were all foreigners without exception. Either a big circle boy from the mainland, or a Vietnamese boater who is so poor that he only has a pair of trousers.

With Kang Jianfei's current status as the richest man in Hong Kong, as long as he doesn't take the initiative to provoke the local gangs in Hong Kong, then the local gangs in Hong Kong will at most collect protection fees from the companies under him, and dare not do anything to him at all.

Luo Jie said with a smile: "I only provoke Kang Jianfei after I had enough to eat. I was asking him how strong he was in Taoism. I heard that no one dared to force his company's actors to film?"

Chen Yaoxing said: "Kang Jianfei has a good relationship with Mr. Xiang. I don't know the specifics, but I heard that Kang Jianfei is also very good at Hezidui. Do you know Chen Guifang from Causeway Bay next door?"

"I heard." Roger Cheng nodded. "Chen Guifang has been up very fast in the past two years. I heard that he has almost occupied the site in Causeway Bay."

Causeway Bay is next to Wan Chai. In recent years, the most prominent people in the underground society are Chen Yaoxing and Chen Guifang. The former rely on fierce fighting to monopolize Wan Chai and become one of the five generals in New Ngee Ann; the latter rely on money to buy it. And supplemented by force to occupy Causeway Bay, are the emerging forces in the Hong Kong community.

Chen Yaoxing put his arms around a wine **** girl, knocked Erlang's leg and said, "Chen Guifang these years. The buyer alone has smashed more than ten million yuan. Where did he get so much money?"

Society is very profitable. Bare hand protection fees are becoming more and more expensive, but they are also very expensive. Raising a younger brother and taking care of the government are hard costs.

Don't look at Chen Yaoxing's occupation of the lucrative site in Wanchai, but the living money he can use is only one hundred thousand, and it is impossible to spend tens of millions to buy the other party's subordinates.

Luo Jiecheng suddenly realized: "You mean that there are investors behind Chen Guifang?"

Chen Yaoxing nodded and said, "It is very likely that Kang Jianfei is behind it, and Chen Guifang's current right-hand man Luo Dashi and Liu Jiangang are both veterans of the mainland. I suspect that they are also the thugs that Kang Jianfei helped Chen Guifang find."

The reason why Chen Yaoxing is so clear is because his site is next to Chen Guifang, and there are small frictions from time to time between the two sides, and each other has touched each other's bottom.

Luo Jiecheng started in Macau. Although he also has some business in Hong Kong, he does not understand the affairs of Hong Kong Road very well. He asked, "If I invite actors from Kang Jianfei Company to film, it should be no problem, right?"

"Don't mess around. Last year, there was a crazy line in 14k who forced Zhou Xingchi. The filming has not yet started. That guy was picked on his hamstring. Afterwards, we couldn't even find out who moved his hand." Chen Yaoxing hurriedly spoke out to stop Luo Jiecheng. crazy move. Chen Yaoxing, the Tiger of Wanchai, is also notoriously deadly, but he is quite afraid of some people's assassination methods, because the other party's methods are so clever that they come and go without a trace, and it is difficult to find any clues afterward.

Very simple, this is done by scouts who have experienced war, and it is not too easy to deal with members of the gang.

Luo Jiecheng has also heard of this, but his film company has suffered too much loss and has no money to hire big stars to film. After weighing it again and again, he gave up the forced invitation to Liu Jialing, and chose Liu Dehua and Zhang Manyu as the hero and heroine.

...

While Roger Cheng tried his best to play here and there, Mr. Kang himself was living happily.

The Qingshuiwan Villa Village, which has been abandoned for many years, is now very popular, and basically all the villas have been sold. Kang Jianfei's seaside villa was at the end. He bought all the nearby deserted beaches and spent a lot of time transforming them into beautiful beaches. Green fences were built around them with trees and flowers, and outsiders could not enter without permission.

The full moon hangs high in the sky, a bonfire is lit on the beach, rabbits and fresh fish are leaned into golden oil, and the fragrance makes people drool.

Sakai Quan Shui sang in Japanese while holding a guitar, while Yang Caini, Xu Ruoxuan and Xie Jinyan beat the beat and occasionally helped her sing a few harmony lines.

As for Kang Jianfei, he listened to music and grilled meat leisurely, with some beer and red wine scattered around him.

"cheers!"

The five of them happily raised their glasses to each other. Sakai Springs has few friends, but now there are three more little sisters. They had done all the shameful things together, and under the deliberate guidance of Kang Jianfei, the relationship between the several women soon became close.

In particular, Sakai Quan Shui can't speak Cantonese. In Hong Kong, except for Kang Jianfei, she has no one to chat with. The three girls stayed in Japan very poorly, but the basic daily communication was no longer a problem, so it was just a companion for Sakai Izumi.

"Today's moon is so round!" Yang Caini rolled around on the beach while covering her half full stomach after eating half of the grilled fish.

The four women are all wearing bikinis, of which Xu Ruoxuan has the most perfect body proportions, while Xie Jinyan has the advantage of long legs and big breasts.

Xu Ruoxuan tore off a piece of roasted golden rabbit meat, came to Kang Jianfei and said, "Godfather, I'll feed you."

Kang Jianfei opened his big mouth and bit the rabbit meat together with Xu Ruoxuan's fingers in one bite, sucking the green jade fingers with Xu Ruoxuan in his mouth.

Xu Ruoxuan didn't withdraw her fingers, and let her godfather **** and lick her, but looked at the little sister Xie Jinyan who was kneeling under her godfather's crotch.

This dead swallow~www.wuxiaspot.com~ knows how to please the godfather and doesn't stop when he eats!

Xu Ruoxuan couldn't help but think of that night, in front of Yang Caini, Xie Jinyan and Sakai Springs, her godfather pressed on her and entered fiercely. The unforgettable pain and pleasure made her unforgettable for the rest of her life.

The sheets stained with her virgin blood were cut to become the exclusive collection of the godfather, sealed with photo frames and displayed in a large cabinet. Xu Ruoxuan secretly counted by the side, there were already more than 20 sheets of red sheets in the cabinet, godfather is really amazing.

Thinking of this, Xu Ruoxuan couldn't help but get wet again, she crawled over to squeeze Xie Jinyan away, and grabbed the delicious food from the little sister's mouth.

Sakai Quanshui and Yang Caini went for a swim in the sea and came back when they heard humiliating voices on the shore. Through the bonfire and the moonlight, you could faintly see Xie Jinyan and Xu Ruoxuan hugging each other, and Kang Jianfei was pressing on them, not knowing whose body he entered.

"What a lecherous man!" Sakai Quanshui spat out, but he couldn't help but walk over while speaking. (To be continued..)u
