After the assistant left, Liu Tianwang couldn't help showing a bit of tiredness and helplessness. When his manager Leslie Cheung, who was standing next to him, saw him, he persuaded him kindly: "Hua Zai, you'd better not work too hard. Your health is important."

Liu Tianwang rubbed his forehead and said with a wry smile: "How can you pay back the money if you don't fight?"

In the eyes of outsiders, Liu Tianwang is a superstar with unlimited fame, but in fact, who knows that he has incurred a lot of debt because of opening a company and making movies in recent years?

In Hong Kong in the 1990s, the film industry dominated Asia and was nicknamed "Hollywood of the East". It was so popular that no one could match it in the entire Eastern cultural circle.

The Japanese and Korean pops are just second-rate or even third-rate brats, not worth a second.

How popular were Hong Kong movies at that time?

Just because the relationship between Brother Long and his future wife Gillian was exposed, there were fanatical female fans in the island country who wanted to sleep on the train, and some even came to his office to take poison.

When a slightly famous Hong Kong star goes to Japan and South Korea, there will definitely be a huge crowd of fans who come to pick him up at the airport.

But behind the glory is the last afterglow before the sunset.

Because of the influx of too much hot money and the fact that Hong Kong films have not established a complete industry standard, this chaos has led to a large number of shoddy films flooding the entire market.

Without reputation, avalanches will inevitably occur.

Liu Tianwang is a good actor, but it is obvious that his business vision is not very good.

Seeing that making movies would make money, I hurriedly established a movie company of my own. I chose to enter the industry at the wrong time, and naturally lost everything in the end.

By 1995, Tianmu Film Company had already lost 45 million Hong Kong dollars, causing Liu Tianwang to almost go bankrupt. His peers and investors also mentioned that "Liu lost money".

New nickname.

In the past few years, creditors came to collect money every day. King Liu Tianwang had no choice but to work hard to make money to pay off his debts.

Although it was very hard and tiring, and he might not even get six hours of rest a day, Liu Tianwang still chose to grit his teeth and persevere.

Zhang Guozhong is Liu Tianwang's manager and a close friend.

After having known each other for many years, he couldn't help but persuade him: "Just give up. It's really going to kill people if you work hard to take on commercial roles like you do. I don't want to see you die young when we're just friends. Or you should file for bankruptcy."

, countless companies have gone bankrupt in the industry in recent years, and we are not ashamed."

Liu Tianwang shook his head and said resolutely: "There is no need to persuade me anymore. I will definitely repay you no matter how much you owe. It doesn't matter if you fall. The key is to get up."

When I was young, I was in poverty and hardship, and after going through many hardships, I finally gained the recognition and support of noble people, leading to the achievements I have today.

Liu Tianwang is not afraid of hardship, but is afraid of poverty, because he was born in a poor family, so he knows that poor life is really difficult.

It is easy to file for bankruptcy, but then he will completely lose the chance of making a comeback.

In his lifetime, he has already tasted the taste of success and fame. If he were to fall from the clouds and fall into the mire that he had tried so hard to escape from in the first place, it would be even more uncomfortable than killing him.

So no matter how hard and tired he is, he will never bow his head and admit defeat.

Seeing that his friend had made up his mind, Zhang Guozhong did not try to persuade him anymore. He just said with emotion: "Nowadays, the movies in Hong Kong are really getting worse and worse. They want box office but not box office, and they want reputation but not reputation. Every time they encounter a Hollywood blockbuster, they are killed."

We have to abandon our armor and be defeated. It seems that the current audience really doesn’t like to watch the movies we make.”

The implication is that if Liu Tianwang wants to make money and turn around, he may have to find a new way, otherwise he will just repeat the same mistakes of the past.

After feeling melancholy for a long time, Zhang Guozhong felt hungry, so he suggested: "Let's go to the restaurant to eat first, and then we'll talk after we're full."
