039 [Sounds like a spring]

A taxi was parked at No. 79, Radio Road, and a father and daughter got out of the car. It was Li Saifeng and her father.

Although Li Saifeng is one year older than Wen Bixia, her figure is even more petite and cute, as handsome as a girl walking out of a comic.

Li's father was very angry. Today he brought his daughter to investigate Kang Jianfei's reality. If Kang Jianfei really had the ability to make his daughter famous by making movies, then he agreed to the actor contract; if Kang Jianfei was just a liar, he thought it would make Kang Jianfei look good.

But no matter whether Kang Jianfei really wants to make a movie or not, Li’s father must firmly deny the ten-year agency contract.

The father and daughter followed the address upstairs, standing at the door of Kang Jianfei's house, keeping ringing the doorbell.

Kang Jianfei opened the door and immediately understood what was going on. He smiled and said, "Please come in and sit down."

After Li Saifeng entered the house, she looked at the furnishings in the house curiously. It was much more beautiful than her house, and her eyes showed some envy and yearning.

But Li's father directly took out the ten-year brokerage contract and said, "Mr. Kang, this contract is not counted, right? It is not approved by my daughter. Only the guardian's signature does not have legal effect."

Kang Jianfei was not stupid enough to get entangled with him on the contract, but said with a smile: "Why don't you agree? Mr. Li, don't you think your daughter has a very good appearance and has the potential to become a big star? I'm bluntly speaking, when she was in the middle school of Jingling Yuansheng, I heard that your daughter's academic performance in school was not very good. If she continues to study, she will most likely not be able to get into college and can't find any good job. But with her excellent appearance, it's just right to make a movie and become a star, and maybe she will become the next Lin Qingxia."

Li Saifeng is just an adolescent girl. She has loved acting since she was a child. She often participates in various performances at school. She dreams of making movies and becoming a star. This time she heard someone ask her to make movies. Li Saifeng was so excited last night that she couldn't sleep all night. Now she heard Kang Jianfei say that she could become the next Lin Qingxia. She was even more excited, afraid that her father would have an unhappy relationship with this gentleman and would have lost her chance to act.

Li Saifeng looked at his father with eyes, as if begging him to agree quickly. However, Li's father ignored his daughter's eyes and said, "I don't know if my daughter has the potential to be a star. I only know that there is no famous film company in Hong Kong called Oriental Dream Factory. Mr. Kang, can you take me to your company to see it?"

Seeing that this person was not easy to fool, Kang Jianfei said truthfully: "My company has just been established."

Li's father is a small businessman. Although he has made money and lost money, his business has not improved, but he is knowledgeable. When he heard that Kang Jianfei was a new company, he immediately sneered: "Hmph, it's just established, it's not a scam..."

"Mr. Li, wait a moment, I know what you want to say," Kang Jianfei interrupted him, took out his film planning, cast and crew list, budget plan, movie script, movie storyboard script, tentative shooting schedule, rental venue contract with Jijingling Middle School, equipment rental contract with Shaw Brothers, etc., and put it in front of Li's father, "Does Mr. Li think a liar spend so much effort to make a movie? I dare say a shameless saying, 99% of all directors in Hong Kong are not as prepared as I have before the start of the filming."

Li's father looked at these things one by one. Although he had no idea about making movies, he still had basic judgment ability. As soon as Kang Jianfei took out these things, Li's father's suspicion disappeared immediately. If Kang Jianfei was really a liar, he would admit it even if he was deceived.

"I don't doubt Mr. Kang's intention to make a movie," Li's father sorted out his words, "and as long as my daughter's studies are not delayed, I agree to her appear in this movie. However, the ten-year agency contract must be invalidated, and I don't want my daughter to be trapped on this contract in the next ten years."

Kang Jianfei glanced at Li Saifeng and smiled at her, "Li Saifeng has an excellent appearance and temperament. She is the most star-potent girl I have ever met, so I hope to train her with my own hands. I have the confidence to make her famous."

Li Saifeng was in adolescence, and girls at this time wanted to get praise and recognition from others. Kang Jianfei's few words made Li Saifeng feel happy and her impression of Kang Jianfei was extremely good. She pulled the corner of her father's clothes and said, "Dad, this Mr. Kang is a good person. I think it's good to make movies with him."

Li's father shook his head and said, "It's okay to make a movie, but the agency contract must be invalidated."

"Mr. Li wants to invalidate the contract, but I'm afraid he thinks that my company has no future." Kang Jianfei took out the paper and pen and said, "The most popular movie in Hong Kong this year is Cheng Long's "The Strange Tactics of Laughing Boxing". The local box office is 5.44 million Hong Kong dollars, the second box office is "Inside and Outside the Wall", the local box office is 4.79 million Hong Kong dollars, and the third box office is "The Legend of the Stories" and the local box office is 4.08 million Hong Kong dollars. These are all fine movies made by famous actors in big companies. And my newly established small company has a group of unknown actors. If I can get 3 million in Hong Kong, it will be ranked among the top ten annual box offices of Hong Kong movies. Can it prove that my company has a great future?"

"Not bad." Li's father nodded. He is also a businessman and knows that the small companies he just opened cannot compare with big companies. If Kang Jianfei's movies can rank among the top ten in the annual box office, it will be very promising.

Kang Jianfei smiled and said, "How about this, let's make an agreement. If my box office of "Happy Ghost" is less than 3 million, then your daughter's agency contract will be invalid. If the box office exceeds 3 million, this agency contract will take effect. How?"

Li's father thought to himself, if his daughter's movie box office exceeds 3 million, she would obviously become a hit. At that time, any big company can be used, so why bother with Kang Jianfei's small company?

After making up his mind, Li's father shook his head and said, "Mr. Kang, I think it's okay to make a movie, but it's better not to sign the agency contract."

Kang Jianfei did not respond, but said to Li Saifeng: "Little sister, go to the living room to watch TV. I have something to do to talk to your father."

Li Saifeng wanted to hear what they said, but Li's father waved, "Go and watch TV quickly, don't interfere with adults and children."

"Hmph!" Li Saifeng was driven away by the two of them and was unhappy, so she could only snort coldly to express her dissatisfaction.

As soon as Li Saifeng left, the smile on Kang Jianfei's face immediately became cold and he threatened directly: "Does Mr. Li think I am a fool? Your wife has signed this agency contract and is fully legal. If you have any objections to this contract, you can come and sue me. It is fine for three or five years to fight. You know that I am a writer, and I will write a book for one or six months, and I will get hundreds of thousands of lawyer fees. I can spend it slowly with you."

Li's father's face became very ugly. Although he had just made a fortune in business not long ago, he did not have the financial strength to break up the lawsuit. If Kang Jianfei was determined to have a fight with him for three or five years, just the money spent by hiring a lawyer would make him bankrupt. Maybe he would lose the case in the end and pay a large penalty for liquidated damages.

Kang Jianfei had a contract in hand, and was not afraid of his troubles. He said slowly: "Mr. Li, you must know how to advance and retreat. I discussed with you kindly before, why do you need to be more greedy? Toasting must be better than punishing wine."

Li's father's face turned pale, obviously being angered by Kang Jianfei's arrogant attitude.

After Kang Jianfei gave him a big stick, he immediately gave him sweet dates: "Mr. Li, you can discuss it calmly. Think about it, if I were the kind of person who made some money by making some money by making movies, how could I sign a ten-year long appointment with your daughter? I really want to make the company bigger, and I really hate to value your daughter.

You might as well think about it this way. If your daughter doesn’t film with me, she will not be a star. If she films with me, then at least she has the hope to become popular. After becoming famous, if my company can grow bigger, she will naturally carefully cultivate her precious star seeds. And if your daughter signs a big company like Shaw Brothers and Jiahe after becoming famous, those companies are full of stars. How many resources can your daughter be a little star? It’s better to be a chicken head than a phoenix tail!

Besides, my company is small, and once you can't continue to do it, you will sell your daughter to a large company. Those big companies spend a high price to buy your daughter's agency contract, so they will naturally pay more attention to it than to sign directly, so as not to spend a vain transfer of money. In this way, no matter where you go, your daughter signs an agency contract with me is the best choice. Think about it, is this the reason?"

Kang Jianfei was changing the topic. He made Li’s father dizzy after a slander. At first glance, it seemed like this, but when he thought about it carefully, he felt something was wrong. If he was careful, he felt that nothing was wrong. If he was careful, he had nothing wrong.

After Kang Jianfei gave Tianzao, he played the emotional card and said, "Mr. Li, I am a young man, only eighteen years old this year. In order to make this movie, I bet on all my wealth. I will do my best to make this movie well and try my best to make your daughter famous. Don't worry, as long as your daughter joins my company, I will treat her as a real sister and will never let her suffer any grievances. If you enter a big company, the intrigue between the stars there is very terrifying. Your daughter is so young, it's okay not to become popular. Once she becomes popular, she will definitely be bullied by other stars who jealous of her!"

After the call, Li's father found out that he had been convinced by Kang Jianfei. It seemed that it was really reasonable and profitable. His daughter should have signed a brokerage contract with Kang Jianfei's company. He pondered for a while, and finally nodded and said, "Okay, that's it."

Kang Jianfei didn't mention any agreed matters anymore. He struck while the iron was hot and called Li Xianfeng over and asked her to add her signature in the agency contract. Even if this matter was for sure, I wouldn't be afraid that Li's father would regret it.

After Li Xianfeng signed the autograph, Li's father suddenly realized: No, the purpose of my visit today is to ask Kang Jianfei to abolish the agency contract so that his daughter would not be trapped by him in the next ten years, rather than discussing which company to sign for the agency contract. This kid is so eloquent, and said a lot of words that he circumvented me!

When Li's father thought it through, his heart suddenly became angry, but Kang Jianfei smiled and raised the contract in front of him, and the fire in Li's father's heart was extinguished. Now, with the signature of the contract with the parties and the guardian, he would lose if he wanted to sue. Even if he was angry, he could only pinch his nose and accept it.

Kang Jianfei carefully closed the contract, and then smiled at Li Saifeng and said, "Seifeng sister has no class today, right? Another heroine of the movie is coming this afternoon. I will take you to measure the size and make clothes. There are several sets of heroine's clothes in the play that need to be customized with tailors. So, why not, Mr. Li, please go back first."
