Chen Chong followed Han Yingjie and Sammo Hung out of the gate of Hu Jinquan's house together and said, "Mr. Han, Brother Sanmao, really don't go for a meal together?"

"We appreciate Boss Shen's kindness." Han Yingjie refused and said, "Sanmao and I are both rough people. If we can't get along with each other, we won't join in the fun."

"Since that's the case, we'll get together next time." Chen Chong followed behind them and asked while going downstairs: "Brother Sanmao, what is the relationship between you and Director Hu?"

"I was a Dragon and Tiger Martial Artist and I was a Dragon and Tiger Martial Artist together, and I was joking around every day and didn't know anything. Later, I followed Director Hu to film "The Drunken Hero". He promoted me to be a martial arts director and taught me a lot of things." Sammo Hung said: "Later, in Jiahe, I followed him to film two more movies. I can make movies now, and it depends entirely on his guidance." (Note 1)

So that's how it is, Chen Chong knew it.

Later generations made movies very professional. Most of the practitioners graduated from professional colleges and no one owed anyone. When they were working, they only talked about money, not about feelings, and after filming, they went their separate ways, cold and lacked human touch.

In the 1960s and 1970s, in the Hong Kong film industry, it was still a traditional talent training model passed down from masters and apprentices. When making movies, the crew seemed to be a big family, the director was a parent, and had to worry about big and small things, with a lot of humanity, so it was highly cohesive and loyal.

Among the great directors in Hong Kong in the 1960s and 1970s, stories of deep love between master and apprentice are common.

For example, in order to celebrate his forty years in his career, Zhang Che's disciples made a special film to commemorate him. He had no children. After his death, Di Long, Jiang David, Li Xiuxian and others worshiped as godsons, and there were a lot of knelt in the mourning hall.

For example, Li Hanxiang went to the mainland to film, offend the Taiwanese authorities, was banned, and later offend the mainland, resulting in no drama to film. Hu Jin, the goddaughter who had already retired from film, went from Taiwan to Thailand to attract investment. Despite his old age, he personally starred in it and filmed several third-level erotic films for his retirement.

Like King Hu, after filming "The Drunken Hero", he had a conflict with Shaw Brothers because of his strong temper and went to Taiwan in anger. After hearing this, Zheng Peipei, who was so popular, didn't even take his luggage, and immediately bought a plane ticket to go to Taipei to join him.

At this time, Hu Jinquan was in trouble. Sammo Hung, who had nothing to do with this matter, took the initiative to visit him. Even if he couldn't help, he was sincere.

Sammo Hung has already settled in Jiahe, and the film department he filmed was selling, and several junior brothers have also been involved in the film. He seems to be glorious, but in fact he has no money. He is a filmmaker and cannot get dividends. He has to support a large number of brothers who are making a living with him. The expenses are very high. This time the deficit is not a small amount of tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands.

Later generations, when Hu Jinquan was filming "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer", he was seized by Tsui Hark and resigned in anger. Later, Sammo Hung invested and worked hard to help him make a movie called "The Painted Skin: Yin and Yang Dharma King", with the intention of making a comeback. Unfortunately, Hu Jinquan has been out of the film industry for too long, and his artistic conception is still there, with no rhythm, and it ends in a dismal end.

Thinking of this, Chen Chong looked at Sammo Hung's fat back and thought about his future actions. He sighed in his heart, no wonder he was able to become the biggest brother in the Hong Kong film industry. In addition to having a good box office and many brothers, this loyalty is the main reason...

The performance of these disciples also contrasts Hu Jinquan's character and is very respectable.

Walking out of the door of the residential building, Chen Chong said, "Brother Sanmao, do you know that I am going to work with Jiahe to make a movie?"

"I know." Sammo Hung said: "Boss Zou told me a few days ago."

"I'm going to make a new movie at the end of next month." In the sun, Chen Chong narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Does Brother Sanmao have any schedules recently? I want to invite you to be the protagonist."

"No problem." Sammo Hung agreed and said, "I had nothing to do before the New Year. Boss Shen is willing to give me some food, so I can't ask for it."

"Brother Sanmao, be polite." Chen Chong said to Han Yingjie again: "If Brother Han has a schedule, please come together. There will be more action scenes in this drama."

"good."

Han Yingjie is not good-looking and doesn't talk much, but his status is special and his status is very high. He is Yu Zhanyuan's son-in-law, Qi Xiaofu's senior brother, Bruce Lee's friend, and the earliest person in the Yuan family to be in charge of martial arts instructors, Sammo Hung, Jackie Chan, Yuan Biao and others. He was able to enter the film industry thanks to his guidance and guidance.

After seeing the two of them off, Chen Chong drove the car downstairs. After waiting for a while, Zhang Aijia walked down with Hu Jinquan and his wife who had changed their clothes.

Zhong Ling was obviously more enthusiastic than before. When she saw Chen Chong standing by the car waiting, she quickly stepped forward and said, "Mr. Chen, thank you so much this time."

"It should be, it should be." Chen Chong said politely, "Director Hu is Sister Zhang's teacher and my idol, both of which are all their duties."

The marketing of the two movies "Crazy Job" and "Chasing Girls" cost nearly two million yuan, and both were entrusted to Hu Shuru's advertising company. Chen Chong is a VIP client, so it is not difficult to contact him.

As for Luo Kaimu, Chen Chong asked Huang Zhan to contact him - he had media resources and had many benefits. Over the past few months, through "The Movie Age", almost all the well-known Hong Kong movie-related people, Chen Chong, have known each other and established interpersonal relationships with different closeness and distant personal relationships in a targeted manner. A top talent like Huang Zhan is naturally a key public relations target. He has met many times and has been familiar with it.

Therefore, after Chen Chong finished reading the contract, he borrowed the phone from Hu Jinquan's study, made several calls, and then made a few words, and then made a appointment with Luohu and the others. He set up a drink with his head, and everyone had a meal together at noon to solve the problem.

Hu Jinquan has a stubborn temper and is very proud of his face. He is reluctant to go to the appointment. Several people took turns to persuade him, but he did not nod until Zhong Ling took out the killer weapon to divorce if she couldn't go, and she was embarrassed.

Last time Chen Bi and Li Ka-shing treated her to show their sincerity, they worked together as an introduction and helped Chen Chong apply for a membership card of the Royal Hong Kong Golf Club. This card is quite rare. Each one is worth millions and has a limited quota. No one recommends it, and no matter how rich you have, you can't buy it. (Note 2)

With this card, you can enter the two top stadiums under the club at any time. If you don’t have one, you have to book first if you want to play and eat...

This kind of magic weapon for X is not often used to show off, which is too wasteful, so Chen Chong placed the place where the wine and wine were placed in the golf course restaurant in Deep Water Bay.

The Deep Water Bay has a beautiful environment, quiet and natural environment, and the weather is good on this day, with bright sunshine and gentle breezes. Hu Jinquan loves natural scenery the most. He visited the green grassy golf course for a while, and his face, which had always been dark, became brighter. After returning to the restaurant box made of glass curtain walls, he gave instructions on the country, talked about it, poetry and allusions, and wrote it casually. His profound cultural heritage was undoubtedly revealed, which made Chen Chong admire and impressed him.

When Huang Zhan brought the two bosses Luo Hu to the restaurant, Hu Jinquan was excited to talk with Shen Chong about how to adapt "Water Margin" into a topic of movies, but when he saw them, he immediately shut up and put on a black face.

"Boss Hu, Uncle Zhan, this must be Boss Luo." Chen Chong stood up to greet him with a smile, "Come on, please sit down, please sit down."

Hu Jinquan finally couldn't resist his wife, so he stood up and greeted Luo Hu and the others, maintaining the superficial etiquette.

After greeting each other, after some trouble, everyone arranged their seats and sat down.

"A Chong, you are young and promising, but you seem too insincere." Huang Zhan loves to play, has a wide range of knowledge, and is familiar with Shen Chong. He looked at the lawn outside the glass curtain wall and sighed: "At a young age, you can start from scratch. You can enter and exit here in less than a year. You are a master of your generation!"

"Uncle Zhan is joking. I'm just lucky. You are not as talented as Xiangjiang's name." Huang Zhan was only thirty-nine at this time. Chen Chong met him for the first time, and according to the customs of later generations, he called him Uncle Zhan. His boss was unwilling to do so, but after shouting too much, he got used to it.

There was a conflict between the two sides. No matter how good the banquet or the scenery was, it could not withstand the awkward and confrontational atmosphere, so Chen Chong did not waste time. As soon as the dishes were served, he immediately said: "Everyone, I overestimated my ability today and put a drink here. Everyone didn't mind that I was young and had a shallow knowledge. I was all here to admire my face. Then I would be shameless and be a mediator in the center."

He held the wine glass and said to Luohu and the others, "Two bosses, we should pay attention to being kind and making money when doing business. If there is no need, it is better not to go to court. Do you think so?"

The Luo family is a famous big family in Hong Kong and owns billions of assets. Luo Kaimu didn't take Chen Chong in his eyes, but only gave Huang Zhan's face. At this time, seeing him young and mature in his words and actions, he was secretly surprised and did not dare to look down on him anymore. He quickly said, "Mr. Chen is right. We don't think about such a storm. If Mr. Chen has any solution, we will listen carefully."

"Actually, after all, there is only one reason for this matter, that is, the box office of the movie is not ideal enough." After reading the contract, Chen Chong understood the causes and consequences, and immediately thought of a solution. He said: "There are two ways to solve it."

"Mr. Chen, please speak."

"One method is to borrow some money to Director Hu, and he will make up for the loss." Chen Chong glanced at Zhong Ling, signaled her to hold Hu Jinquan and not let him speak, and then continued: "The other method is to see if the two bosses are left alone."

"What are you willing to give up?"

"I, like both of you, are both movies, so some day ago, opened a film company and made two movies. The box office was OK, but it had no artistic value. People always laughed at it as a nouveau riche." Chen Chong said with a smile: "The filming of "Empty Mountain Spirit Rain" is very artistic, I like it very much. I don't know if the two are willing to give up and sell it to me? I plan to take it to the film festival abroad, get a few trophys, and suppress the words of those boring villains."

Hu Shuru and Luo Kaimu looked at each other, and then Hu Shuru asked, "I wonder how Mr. Chen is going to buy "Empty Mountain Spirit Rain"?"

"I asked about it from Director Hu. "Empty Mountain Spirit Rain" lost about 1.1 million yuan. I wonder if this is the case?"

"Yes." Luo Kaimu nodded and said, "Director Hu was too slow to film, spending 400,000 or 500,000 or more. Otherwise, he wouldn't have lost so much, and things wouldn't have been so troubled."

"When filming, anything can happen, and overspending is normal." Hu Jinquan immediately retorted and said loudly: "And she is the most responsible for the financial affairs you sent to take kickbacks and overspending problems!" (Note 3)

"The things have passed, and now there is no point in arguing." Chen Chong looked at Luo Kaimu and stared at him, quickly smoothed out the situation, and said, "Come on, come on, eat the dishes first. The taste is good here, let's talk while eating."

"A Chong, I've been waiting for you for this sentence a long time ago." Huang Zhan also smiled and adjusted the atmosphere, saying, "Lao Luo, you run a restaurant. Come and try the dishes here. How is it compared to yours?"

"My home runs a fast food restaurant, how can I compare to the dishes on the golf course?" Luo Kaimu picked up the chopsticks and said, "Mr. Chen, continue talking."

"Empty Mountain Spirit Rain" was not satisfactory in both Hong Kong and Taiwan, and the trailers on Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand have already been sold. The rest is nothing more than video tape revenue, video tape production is troublesome, high cost, and slow profit recovery." Chen Chong took the shrimps that Zhang Aijia had peeled for him and continued: "I paid 1.5 million to purchase all copyrights of "Empty Mountain Spirit Rain", including video tape, TV broadcast, and ownership of any new media. What do you think?"
