"Squeak squeak..."

The electronically controlled iron door of the villa slowly opened and a black car drove in.

As soon as Kang Jianfei got off the car in front of the building, two women in suits came up and looked at him vigilantly. He observed for half a minute before he could get out of the way.

"He seems to be the master, I've seen the photos."

"Hmph, Miss Pan is pregnant for several months, and he has only been here for the first time, and he has no sense of responsibility at all."

"Speak quietly, if he hears it, we have to go back to the mainland."

“…”

Kang Jianfei felt a little ashamed when he heard the conversation between the two female bodyguards behind him.

"Where is the madam?" Kang Jianfei called the servants at home to ask.

The maid said, "It seems like she is basking in the sun on the rooftop."

Kang Jianfei climbed two floors to the rooftop. Pan Yingzi, with a bulging belly, was lying on a sun lounger, and there was a nurse next to him squatting under an umbrella reading a book to pass the time.

Before Kang Jianfei could approach, Pan Yingzi said angrily: "I thought you had forgotten me."

A woman's temperament will indeed change after she becomes pregnant. In the past, Pan Yingzi followed Kang Jianfei in everything, so how could she scold him as soon as she meets him like now?

"Are you okay?" Kang Jianfei's eyes turned to Pan Yingzi's belly. The child in her belly has been almost five months old. Pan Yingzi rarely goes to the company now.

Pan Yingzi stroked her belly and said, "I'm fine, and Baby in her belly is also very good."

Kang Jianfei sat with Pan Yingzi on the rooftop for a while, and the sun began to fall, leaving golden waves on the sea in the distance.

"So beautiful!" Pan Yingzi said as she admired the afterglow of the sunset.

Kang Jianfei nodded and said, "It's very beautiful."

Pan Yingzi carefully stood up from the sun lounger, held the roof railing, and looked into the sea in the distance and said, "I moved to Hong Kong with my parents from Suzhou at the age of four. Because my family was too poor, I followed my mother to set up a stall to sell things at a very young age. Since I attended Shaw Brothers training class at the age of 14, I have been busy working and making money all day long. Until recently, when I was pregnant and my mentality gradually calmed down, I suddenly realized that I had missed a lot of beautiful things." Pan Yingzi turned around and smiled at Kang Jianfei, "A few months ago, I didn't have time to enjoy the sunset sea view."

Kang Jianfei leaned lazily on the chair that Pan Yingzi had just lying on, and said, "Maybe."

Pan Yingzi sighed and said, "In the past, my goal was to make money, and I made countless money. Later, when I followed you, making money became secondary. The goal became power, and I finally tried hard to control the Oriental Entertainment Agency. Now for me, the child in my belly is the most important thing. As long as it is enough to spend money, I have never expected it. I just hope that after the child is born, you don't care about it, just take a look at it for three to five months."

Kang Jianfei smiled bitterly and said, "Your requirements are really not high."

After Pan Yingzi finished speaking, she returned to the room with the help of the nurses and did not communicate with Kang Jianfei any more.

Kang Jianfei has a strange attitude towards women. There are many men who show mercy everywhere in Hong Kong. However, it is basically divided into two types. One is like Ho Ying-tung, He Hongsen, Shao Yifu and others who blatantly marry their concubines, or quietly keep the outdoor room like Zou Wenhuai; the second is a deal that you are willing to do, or a night of affection, or a long-term relationship between friends, anyway, they will always be completely clean and leave.

Kang Jianfei belongs to these two types. Because he has a pathological rejection of his family, he has always been unwilling to get married, or even unwilling to live with the same woman for a long time. However, for the women he has played with, Kang Jianfei has a perverted possessiveness, holding on to others and refusing to let go.

The combination of these two points has caused Kang Jianfei's current entanglement, and He Chaoqiong's pregnancy and the forced marriage of the He family further aggravated his entanglement.

After spending dinner with Pan Yingzi, the two of them clearly spoke a lot of things. They basically explained the future of Pan Yingzi and the children in their belly - the outdoor room and the illegitimate child (daughter).

He said he didn't have a name, but when he really explained this, Pan Yingzi was still worried. When he spoke, he deliberately switched the TV to TVB to disgust Kang Jianfei.

TVB is broadcasting the news: "At around 9 am this morning, Mr. Chen Rongmei and Feng Bingzhong held a press conference on the radio channel, announcing that he had officially left Princess Jin and formed another Xinbao Cinema. Currently, Xinbao Cinema has 4 theaters in total, including Xinbao, Kaidu, President, and Luxury. There are 9 screening halls and more than 3,600 seats. It is the sixth largest theater company in Hong Kong after Oriental, Jiahe, Princess Jin, Yindu, and Anle..."

On TV, Chen Rongmei is interviewing reporters: "Mr. Feng and I will spend HK$50 million to continue to build or acquire new theaters and build Xinbao Cinemas into the leading large theater chain in Hong Kong. At the same time, Hong Kong's large and small theaters are welcome to join together, and major film companies are welcome to bring the movies to Xinbao Cinemas for screening. At present, Xinbao Cinemas has reached a cooperation with Taiwanese scholars and Nanyang Shaw Brothers. As long as the movies are screened at Xinbao Cinemas, there is a great chance of being successfully released in Nanyang and Taiwan..."

Pan Yingzi hasn't been to the company for several days. She basically asked about the company's affairs for a week, and the people below were taking care of the specific work. She deliberately switched to TVB in anger, but she didn't expect to see such a news. She put away her temper and asked: "Does the opening of Xinbao Cinema have any impact on Oriental Cinema and DreamWorks?"

Kang Jianfei crossed his legs, and said in a tone that it was about to rain and her mother was about to get married: "The impact is certain. Xinbao said that he had distribution channels in Taiwan and Nanyang, and I don't know how many independent film companies would attract. And I have found out clearly that behind this is the scholar Cai Songlin who is doing it.

Because of the prosperity of Hong Kong films in recent years, wealthy bosses in Taiwan and Nanyang have long wanted to invest in Hong Kong films to get a share. However, because Hong Kong films’ distribution channels in Hong Kong are controlled by several theaters, the movies invested in overseas have only made small fuss. For example, Liu Zhenwei’s previous Century Pictures was invested by the Philippine boss, and several consecutive movies have been ranked in the top ten of the annual box office list of SIPG films, but because they are still not in a good schedule, they will lose money if the movie is not filmed well.

Cai Songlin's vision is very vicious. He knew that if he wanted to invest in Hong Kong films, he had to master a Hong Kong theater, which convinced Chen Rongmei to set up the Xinbao Theater. With Cai Songlin spending money behind and Xinbao Theater to schedule films, I'm afraid that all directors in Hong Kong who think they are talented will be ready to move."

Pan Yingzi asked: "The director of DreamWorks is also moved?"

"Cai Songlin made a big deal. He dug up my film production manager to open a film company, and also invited Sammo Hung and Mecca, the two best film companies in the Hong Kong film industry, to be actors. I have to admire him for his whimsical thoughts. And he really did the job." Kang Jianfei kept laughing while talking, not seemingly angry at this.

Pan Yingzi said in surprise: "Has Zeng Zhiwei been poached?"

"It's not just Zeng Zhiwei," Kang Jianfei shook his head and said helplessly, "It seems that Wu Yusen and Li Xiuxian are leaving sooner or later."

Pan Yingzi asked: "It makes sense that Wu Yusen is leaving. Didn't Li Xiuxian set up a personal studio at DreamWorks?"

Kang Jianfei explained: "Taiwan is an important market for Hong Kong films. Now DreamWorks has been banned by the Taiwan side, and scholars have Taiwan's distribution channels. Helping scholars make movies is more profitable than helping DreamWorks shoot movies. If I were to choose to cooperate with Cai Songlin."

After being the general manager of an entertainment company for several years, Pan Yingzi's vision is far more obvious than that of ordinary people. She said: "I have dealt with Cai Songlin, a very elegant and gentle person. I didn't expect that his style of doing things is so sharp. His approach is to completely destroy the order of the Hong Kong film industry today."

Kang Jianfei smiled and said, "It was to smash money into it as a stone, muddy the water and fish in a mess. I guess Wu Siyuan, Liu Jiahui, Yuan Zhenxiang, and Deng Guangrong are now secretly in contact with scholars and Xinbao, behind their backs."

...

I have contacted more than those Kang Jianfei mentioned by Cai Songlin and Chen Rongmei. The opening work of Xinbao Cinema is Pan Disheng Debao Film Company's "Happy Adventure". Three of the four female leading actors in this film are all stars under Kang Jianfei. Naturally, they will be coldly treated by Jiahe Cinema. Now they are hooked up with the newly opened Xinbao Cinema.

When "Happy Adventure" was released, DreamWorks' "Wong Fei-Hong" had already been released, with a box office of HK$36.81 million in Hong Kong. According to the movie's ticket price and inflation, the box office of this film is much higher than the original time and space "Wong Fei-Hong". The reason is nothing more than Kang Jianfei's director appeal, the backing support of Oriental Theater, and the stunning and shock brought by filming several years in advance.

"Huang Feihong" can be said to have both box office and reputation. Several of the movies Li Lianjie's previous films were sold well in Hong Kong. But his popularity has always been half high and not low, which is inconsistent with the box office of the movies he starred in. In the final analysis, Li Lianjie's identity as a mainlander is there. After "Huang Feihong" was released, Li Lianjie's elegant and upright image was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and was finally recognized and accepted by Hong Kong audiences.

As for Guan Zhilin, she became very popular because of this movie. The popularity of the other first-line actresses was temporarily overwhelming.

After the release of "Huang Feihong", DreamWorks prepared a grand celebration banquet for him, and the follow-up film was directed by Wang Jing, executive director of Li Lichi, and screenwriter of Kang Jianfei. Starring Zhou Xingchi, Huang Qiusheng, Wu Mengda, Wang Shuxian, and guest starring Zhou Runfa and Xiang Huaqiang.

"The Gambler" happened to be released at the same time as Debao Film Company's "Happy Adventure". At this time, Jiahe Theater's "Police Story" and Hollywood blockbuster "The First Blood 2" have begun to have a weak box office, and the films in New Art City are still dying.

The second round of this summer season is basically a head-on battle between "The Gambler" and "Happy Adventure".

"The Gambler" relies on the fame of Zhou Xingchi and Wu Mengda and the box office appeal brought by "The Gambler", the box office in the first week was as high as 11.67 million, which is better than the data when "Police Story" was first released.

With the fame of Yang Ziqiong, Li Lizhen, Wen Bixia and Ng Junru, "Happy Adventure" attracted a large number of students on summer vacation to the movie, and also won a good box office of 5.88 million in the first week, making Xinbao Cinema truly a happy opening.

The box office success of "Happy Adventure" immediately brought hope to countless Hong Kong independent film companies. Every day, people asked Chen Rongmei and Feng Bingzhong to discuss cooperation.

As for Zeng Zhiwei, he officially resigned from his position as DreamWorks, and established a good friend film company with the support of Taiwanese Scholar Film Company, and successfully invited Sammo Hung and Mecca to come out to film.

Since the three of them agreed to share the profits they made after the movie was made, Hong Jinbao and Mecca were both very enthusiastic about it. They invited their capable screenwriters Huang Bingyao and Zhang Jianting to write the script. The brothers of the Hong family were all dispatched, and they also asked for relationships to invite actors such as Shi Jian, Wu Yaohan, Shen Dianxia, ​​and Wang Yu. They even invited Kurata Baeka from Japan, and from Oriental Entertainment Agency to Guan Zhilin and Zheng Wenya.

These three people want to play a big game, and without any concealment, they are carrying out preliminary preparations with great fanfare!

Kang Jianfei is too lazy to ask about this. Hong Kong film prosperity cannot be supported by DreamWorks. The best situation is that two or three leading film companies, as well as dozens or hundreds of powerful independent film companies.

Only with competition can there be pressure. As long as Zeng Zhiwei does not play the wrong way, Kang Jianfei doesn’t want to deliberately suppress it. In his opinion, it is normal to change jobs. Zeng Zhiwei even proposed to invite Zheng Wenya and Guan Zhilin as the leading actor. Kang Jianfei did not make any embarrassment and generously let people go.

As for Zou Wenhuai, there was no way around this. Hong Jinbao had a very stale relationship with Jiahe because Jiahe censored the box office several times. This time, he made a big fuss with Zeng Zhiwei, and actually wanted to show Zou Wenhuai's face. What Hong Jinbao wanted to express was: I didn't sign a contract with Jiahe, so I would come and go. If I leave Jiahe's support, I can still make money. If I want to continue working together in the future, don't play tricks at the box office!

The most depressing thing is Huang Baiming and Shi Tian. The three of them jointly opened the Xinyi City. Now the major shareholder of Mecca actually went out to film with others, and the movie will be released in Princess Jin's traitor Xinbao Theater. What the hell is this!

Faced with such incredible cooperation, Hong Kong newspapers exerted their genius imagination, such as Sammo Hung and Zou Wenhuai's rebellion, such as the upcoming bankruptcy of New Art City, and Zeng Zhiwei's filming was instructed by Kang Jianfei, and other reports, published them all in one go.

Zeng Zhiwei said with a smile: "Actually, things are not as complicated as everyone imagines. The reason why my film company is named Good Friend is to invite good friends to come out and work together to make movies. Everyone eats meat and everyone earns money. There are no conspiracies behind it..."
