Chapter 265 Find someone to kill that director! Then find someone else.
The fourth day back to Hong Kong Island.
Zheng Jirong has almost settled the matter of the boxing match in the past two days. After finding a coach and his default champion, his subordinates will naturally pick out the rest of the contestants who will be used to make up the numbers.
As for the [Special Function Performance Troupe].
Zheng Jirong did send his men to look for Tiancanjiao's gang, but he knew roughly the plot of the movie, but he really forgot the names of the protagonists.
You can't take a photo of Young Master Twelve and ask the boys to search for someone who looks very similar to Young Master Twelve in Hong Kong.
Speaking of which, [Special Function Performance Troupe] will come to Hong Kong Island in less than a week. According to this plot line, those two street gangs must have eaten half of [Da Huan Dan] each person. There's no point in looking for them.
At most, if you meet them one day, just buy the secret books of [Tathagata Divine Palm] and [Seven Mysterious Slash]. There is no need to make a big fuss.
On the contrary, there was something wrong with the casino that Ding Yao worked with on Ao Island. The woman called her four or five times recently. While chatting about Sao, she kept telling him to deal with it as soon as he had time in the next two days.
According to what she said on the phone, it was He Xin that bastard who used some dirty trick again this time.
"Brother Rong, what are you thinking about? Is there any problem in the business?"
"It's okay." Zheng Jirong smiled gently at Liang Wanting, held her hand and walked while saying, "I'm going to Ao Island tomorrow. If there is any gift you want, I will buy it and bring it to you then."
"No, Ao Island is so close. I can go there and buy whatever I want."
Liang Wanting shook her head, and then said in a hurry: "I'll go with you tomorrow. I heard from Sister Amei that there is a casino on Ao Island. I have never been in a casino in my entire life."
"I'm going to do some business. It's not convenient for me to have a woman with me. Obediently, if you're bored, go and have fun on a gambling boat for a few days."
"But I don't want to go alone, I just want to go with you."
"Hey, we're here, damn, the queue is so long," Zheng Jirong interrupted Liang Wanting and pointed at the long queue in the cinema and said in surprise.
Liang Wanting, who was still a little unhappy at first, looked at the people queuing up to buy tickets and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Wow, there are so many people. Brother Rong, your autobiographical movie is so popular!"
Zheng Jirong was currently looking at the oversized poster posted on the wall of the theater - "Slumdog Millionaire".
Starring: Fa Ge, Du Juan, Fang Xiaoling
The scene of Fa Ge wearing a butcher's skirt and reading in front of a meat stall occupies more than half of the entire poster.
"Brother Rong, did you still study in your free time when you were selling pork?" Liang Wanting asked curiously, looking at the poster.
"Yes, knowledge is the primary productive force. Otherwise, how could I have worked my way up from a pig to such a big career!"
After Zheng Jirong finished speaking categorically, he pulled Liang Wanting into the theater.
This autobiographical film is the first venture of his film company. Tie Dan not only invited TV station screenwriter Xiao Ruoyuan to write the script, but also everyone from the producer to the actor is a top player in the industry.
Zheng Jirong had read the script before going overseas. There is no gangster element in the whole script. The main theme is inspirational. A meat vendor who hangs out in the market is in the mud but yearns for the sky. After his unremitting hard work, he succeeds. The story of growing up into a business tycoon.
And there are also many villains like the Four Crabs of the Ding Family, Liang Kun, Dinosaur, and Jiang Tiansheng. However, their identities have changed from the boss of Hi Road to business competitors. These people are often involved in the protagonist's path forward. Jiuzi uses dirty tricks, but unfortunately in the end he still can't stop the protagonist's success.
Of course, as a qualified commercial movie, the script also contains a lot of tragic elements, such as the betrayal of a friend and the death of a beloved woman.
After reading the entire script, Zheng Jirong had only one word for his attitude towards it: Absolutely!
After getting his approval, Tiedan immediately arranged for the company's manpower to start filming. Unexpectedly, he had just returned from abroad, and the movie had already been shot!
The total time spent on shooting and editing is not even a month. It’s surprising that a good movie can be made!
But looking at the long queues of moviegoers in the cinema now, it seems like they made this movie pretty well?
"Brother Rong, let's go to the back. There are long queues at several ticket booths." Liang Wanting stood on tiptoe and glanced at the long queue of people.
"Hey, do you think being the boss on Hong Kong Island doesn't have any privileges?"
Zheng Jirong led Liang Wanting directly to the ticket gate. Just as he was about to communicate with the movie fans who bought tickets at the front, his sleeve was suddenly pulled.
"Hey, we're in line," a few people queuing next to him said angrily, "Don't think that just because you're handsome and talented, you don't have to wait in line."
"Have you noticed that I'm talented?" Zheng Jirong said in surprise.
Another person next to him pointed at him and said seriously: "I also see that you are sincere and caring. You are really a first-rate friend!"
"Oops, I actually let you see it." Zheng Jirong took out his wallet and exclaimed: "Then I will definitely treat you to dinner."
"Of course!" everyone said in unison.
"Okay, five hundred yuan each, you go to dinner, I want this seat!"
A few minutes later.
Zheng Jirong, who bought the ticket, flicked the two movie tickets in his hand and said proudly to Liang Wanting: "You don't have to queue and you can choose a good seat, isn't it good?"
"."
In the screening room.
After a few advertisements were played, the main content of the film began to be broadcast on the canvas. At the beginning, Zheng Jirong's identity was introduced through the titles and narrations of more than a dozen newspapers.
"He is arrogant, but has a kind heart."
"He is low-key, but admired by thousands of people."
"Is he the incarnation of a god or the messenger of hell?"
"No one knows."
"."
Why didn't this play appear in the script shown to him?
Zheng Jirong frowned and continued reading patiently. Fortunately, there were no changes later. They all followed the script he had set before.
Not long after, less than half of the movie was played, and Zheng Jirong, who was framed as a murderer by his competitors, was avoiding the search of the criminal police.
It is worth mentioning that Fa Ge's acting skills are indeed superb. Although the situation was extremely urgent, his character Zheng Jirong did not panic at all and even calmly entered a minibus.
Wait, minibus?
After Liang Wanting looked at the familiar scenes that happened in the car, she couldn't help but put her arms around Zheng Jirong's neck and said with emotion: "You actually wrote our story into the movie!"
"Like it?"
"Yeah! I love you so much!"
"Don't be gentle, there's surveillance. Uh-huh."
Before Zheng Jirong could finish his words, he was blocked by the tearful Liang Wanting.
An hour later, the movie also came to an end.
By a small lake, the male protagonist encountered the betrayal of his best friend. While fishing, he narrowly escaped the stone thrown at his head by his friend through the reflection in the water.
Facing the male protagonist's questioning, the friend broke down and cried, begging the male protagonist to let him go.
Although he almost died in his hands, the male protagonist thought of their past friendship, sighed deeply, and waved his hand to let him leave.
After his friend left, only Zheng Jirong's back was left by the lake. At this time, the camera slowly zoomed out, and the male protagonist's solitary figure looked increasingly sad and determined.
Although he gained wealth and status, he lost the friendship and love that ordinary people have.
Along with a long melody, a sonorous and powerful singing voice also sounded at the right time.
"Which way is ahead? Who will accompany me in my journey?"
"There is no guidance along the road, and if I walk up it, it will be a narrow alley."
"."
"How many innocent ideals are found to be decadent."
"."
After Liang Wanting heard the ending song, she nodded and praised: "The song is quite nice."
"Yeah, I wrote this myself. How about my autobiographical movie? Is it good?" Zheng Jirong raised his eyebrows proudly.
"Well" Liang Wanting playfully raised her finger and tapped Zheng Jirong's lips, "Why didn't I know that Jimmy hit you with a rock when we were fishing, and you didn't have a woman in the movie, but in reality?"
"This is called artistic processing! Alas, it's hard to chat with people like you who have no artistic talent."
Zheng Jirong took Liang Wanting in his arms and walked outside, talking and laughing. When he was approaching the car, he didn't know what he thought of, clapped his hands and said, "I almost forgot, Wanting, you go back alone first, I have to go back with you tonight." The boss from the island won’t go to your place at night to discuss business.”
"Business talk?" Liang Wanting didn't believe it: "Why didn't you say it before, but now you want to go home and say you want to talk business?"
Zheng Jirong said without changing his expression: "We are really talking about business. Look at when I have lied to you. If you are bored, go play mahjong with Amei and the others. Be obedient."
After being coaxed and pushed into the car by him, Liang Wanting looked at Zheng Jirong who was on the phone outside and curled her lips. Every time she found an excuse to run away after paying the public food, and the reason was always the same, lying. They are all insincere.
After Zheng Jirong finished the phone call and got into Ah Miao's car, Liang Wanting bit her lip and didn't know what she thought of. She raised the corners of her mouth and said to the driver: "Go to Kadoorie Mountain."
Bowland Street, Crown Nightclub.
Zheng Jirong, along with Ah Miao and others, greeted the guests around him with cheerful faces. As the largest nightclub in Hong Kong, those who have the confidence to come here are rich or noble. He glanced around and saw a lot of familiar faces in the hall. of wealthy businessmen and celebrities.
"Boss, Brother Tiedan and the others are already waiting for you in the box." The manager of the lobby quickly came up to greet Zheng Jirong after seeing him.
"Um."
A few minutes later, as soon as Zheng Jirong opened the box door, he heard Tie Dan shouting inside: "The box office on the first day was 4 million! Three tier screenings! It directly broke the box office record in Hong Kong Island!"
"I just asked who else?!"
"Hahaha"
Tie Dan, who was laughing wildly, suddenly saw A Yi and the others standing up and looking towards the door. He quickly turned around. After seeing Zheng Jirong, Tie Dan ran up to announce the good news with a smile:
"Brother Rong, this time we released it and we made more than 4 million in box office in one day. What if it was released for a month? No wonder those bastards in Xinji love making movies so much. It turns out they are really so profitable! "
"Of course, this is because of your fame, Brother Rong. After the citizens found out that it was Mr. Huasheng Zheng's autobiographical movie, the tickets sold out like crazy!"
Zheng Jirong nodded expressionlessly and said, "The movie was indeed pretty good, but what does that narration at the beginning mean?"
"Narration?" Tie Dan was stunned for a moment, then smiled and took credit: "Oh, I specifically asked for it to be added. The effect is good, boss."
"Not bad? Not bad!"
Zheng Jirong said angrily: "You can just say that I am the incarnation of a god. Why do you say that I am the messenger of hell? What does hell have to do with me?!"
"Well, I want to help you, boss, be a little more mysterious." Tie Dan said aggrievedly.
"You think about it? When will it be my turn to think about it?!"
Zheng Jirong grabbed his neck and said: "I made this movie to improve my image in the hearts of the general public. What if you, the messenger of hell, say something wrong and others think wrong?!"
"You thought we were making a horror movie!"
Tie Dan quickly dismissed the blame and said, "Actually, I didn't add it, it was specially arranged by the director."
"Really? Then find someone to kill that director for me! Then find someone to kill you too!"
