Chapter 865 965. Dream Stealer

The martial arts hall started preparing for the opening ceremony at 8 a.m. and closed at 9:30 p.m.

Even so, when the martial arts hall closed, there were still people who wanted to come in, but they were turned away because it was too late.

According to rough statistics, nearly 6,000 people visited the martial arts hall today. What made the Cheng family even happier was that among these people, nearly 500 people paid for membership cards on the spot.

Nearly one-fifth of them even directly applied for annual cards, and the income for this day exceeded one million!

Mr. Cheng never dreamed that today's income was more than his income in the previous 70 years combined. Of course, he also knew very well that such income was thanks to Nie Wei.

If it weren't for Nie Wei's popularity, how could he have opened a martial arts hall with such a grand momentum today, attracting so many people to visit and even decide to learn Baguazhang? It can be said that Nie Wei accounted for at least 8 points of the credit.

After giving each staff member a red envelope of 500 yuan, the Cheng family also closed the door of the martial arts hall after watching the staff leave happily.

Several daughters-in-law at home began to prepare dinner, although this dinner could be considered a midnight snack.

"Do you want to invite Mr. Nie to dinner?" While preparing dinner, the eldest daughter-in-law couldn't help asking her family.

"It's so late, don't disturb him." Cheng Ziguo replied with a smile. After all, it was already ten o'clock, and Nie Wei might have fallen asleep. It would be too rude to disturb him at this time.

"It would be great if the third brother was here too. With such a good start, why did I forget to send him a text message to announce the good news." Cheng Ziwu said regretfully while eating the peanuts left over from yesterday.

"Send it to him now. Even if he can't see it now, he will always see it tomorrow morning when he wakes up." Cheng Zijun said.

Hearing this, Cheng Ziwu couldn't help clapping his hands. Why couldn't he think straight just now? After shouting "Second brother is still smart", Cheng Ziwu took out his mobile phone and sent a text message to Cheng Zimo to announce the good news.

The profits of the martial arts school today can be said to have made their whole family extremely excited. Several brothers and sisters-in-law cheered when they were doing the accounts. Although the old man scolded them for being impatient and unsophisticated, Cheng Ziwu knew that the old man was also very happy in his heart, otherwise why would he even drink white wine?

He was so excited that he even forgot to tell his brother the good news. Thinking of this, Cheng Ziwu couldn't help but smile.

"Have you sent the text message?" Cheng Zijun asked casually as he watched his brother put away his phone.

"It's sent." Cheng Ziwu replied, and then he couldn't help asking Cheng Zijun: "Brother, our martial arts school is making so much money now, should we let our youngest brother come and work with us..."

Before Cheng Ziwu finished speaking, the old man Cheng who was sipping white wine on the side immediately slapped him on the head without hesitation after hearing it.

"Asshole, what are you talking about!" With the roar of the old man Cheng, everyone was startled, and even the women who were busy in the kitchen quickly turned off the fire and ran out to see what was going on?

"Dad, why did you hit me?" Cheng Ziwu was a little confused by the palm of Mr. Cheng, and asked subconsciously while covering his head.

"You still ask me why I hit you." Mr. Cheng pointed at Cheng Ziwu and scolded him: "What are you talking about? What's wrong with your youngest brother being Mr. Nie's bodyguard? Has Mr. Nie ever treated the youngest brother badly? What, you want to be ungrateful just because the martial arts school is doing well? I tell you, if you say this again, you will get out of this house!"

"Dad, don't be angry, anger hurts your body."

"Dad, my brother was just confused for a while, please don't be angry."

"Calm down."

Seeing that the old man was so angry that his eyes turned red, everyone knew that the old man was really angry, and they all ran up to coax him, and Cheng Ziwu came back to his senses at this moment. He looked at the old man with grievance and explained, "Dad, I am not the kind of ungrateful person. I remember clearly how much Mr. Nie has done for our family."

"And I just saw that the martial arts school has too many apprentices, so I wanted to ask my youngest brother to come back to help." At this point, Cheng Ziwu couldn't help but mutter, "After all, it's useless for my youngest brother to follow Mr. Nie. If there is danger, who knows who will save whom."

"Ahem--!"

There was an awkward cough at the scene, and the angry old man Cheng couldn't help blushing. The next second, he looked at his third son even more unpleasantly.

"Sophistry! Anyway, if you mention this again in the future, I will punish you!" The old man scolded Cheng Ziwu severely again, and then, with Cheng Ziwu's constant apology, he finally spared him this time.

Because of this episode, the atmosphere of the celebratory dinner became a little weird. Everyone ate three times faster than usual. It took only more than half an hour for the dinner to end.

After returning to his bedroom, the old man did not go to bed immediately, but opened the drawer of the desk and took out a photo album.

When he opened the album, the first photo was a black and white family photo.

Mr. Cheng's eyes first stayed on the woman sitting next to him in the photo. That was his wife. Unfortunately, she died ten years ago and did not catch up with the good life now.

When his wife died, what she was most worried about was his four sons.

But now, with the income from the martial arts school, the Cheng family's future good days are just around the corner. More importantly, his youngest son is with a big shot.

Old Master Cheng was originally most worried about Cheng Zimo, because his youngest son had been a martial arts fanatic since he was a child. He only knew how to practice martial arts. He sent him to school to study, but his grades were terrible. Old Master Cheng paid nearly 10,000 yuan in medical expenses a year, most of which was given to his classmates' families.

In the end, under the stick of Old Master Cheng, he barely finished high school.

In the remaining days, Cheng Zimo was working sometimes and not working sometimes. This lasted for more than ten years. He didn't save a penny, but his kung fu improved a lot in these years. Among the brothers in the family, he even surpassed them and became the one with the highest martial arts skills.

But what's the use of this! ?

At that time, the old man was anxious. No matter how high his kung fu was, he couldn't stop bullets. Apart from fighting, Old Master Cheng didn't think there was any room for Cheng Zimo's skills to be used.

What's more, he is thirty years old and doesn't even have a partner. How can the old man not be anxious? He still wants to hold his youngest grandson when he has some strength.

Thinking of this, the old man couldn't help laughing. He used to think that he was the least promising one in the family, but now he is the most promising one in the family.

Why was he so angry with his third son just now? Wasn't it because his third son said something stupid?

Isn't it much better for Cheng Zimo to follow Nie Wei than to come back to the martial arts school to be a coach?

To know why his family can open such a martial arts school in such a big city now, old man Cheng knows that it is all because of Cheng Zimo, because his master is Nie Wei.

Otherwise, there are many descendants of Baguazhang masters, why did Nie Wei choose the Cheng family?

Although Cheng Zimo is only Nie Wei's personal bodyguard now, but old man Cheng dares to guarantee that in the future, as long as Cheng Zimo works hard with Nie Wei, his world will definitely not be a small martial arts school, and his career may exceed his imagination.

Moreover, only if Cheng Zimo follows Nie Wei can the good relationship between the Cheng family and the Nie family be maintained.

As for the lack of people in the martial arts school? Old Master Cheng knows this and has even thought of a solution long ago.

You should know that the ancestor of the Cheng family is famous in the martial arts world and has accepted countless disciples, among whom he has left many valuable connections.

In the past, the Cheng family was on the edge of the martial arts world, so these connections were naturally of little use. But now that the Cheng family's martial arts school has started to operate again, these connections are the most valuable resources. Old Master Cheng also knows about a few people who are really capable, and is preparing to call these old friends tomorrow and ask them to send people to support him.

After all, this is a mutually beneficial thing. If Cheng's Baguazhang can take advantage of this to rise, then those who practice Cheng's Baguazhang will also benefit together.

So he believes that after he makes a request, the other party will definitely support it. Besides, he can't treat these old friends' disciples unfairly, and the treatment he offers will definitely be better.

When Cheng Ziwu sent the text message, Cheng Zimo was indeed asleep. He didn't see the text message until the next morning when he got up to practice martial arts with Nie Wei.

Cheng Zimo was also very happy to know that the martial arts school had a good profit on the first day, but he didn't lose his composure like Cheng Ziwu and the others when they saw the final profit figures.

After all, he had been with Nie Wei for a long time and was used to seeing hundreds of millions of transactions. He had even been on the scene of transactions of tens of billions and tens of billions. It was really hard for him to get excited about the martial arts school's income of millions in one night.

When practicing martial arts in the morning, Cheng Zimo also told Nie Wei the news.

"That's good. The martial arts school must be very busy these days. I'll give you two days off. You can go and help." Nie Wei seemed quite indifferent when he got the profit figure. He was more concerned about the development of the martial arts school itself.

Originally, Nie Wei was going to give Cheng Zimo two days off and let him go back to help. Who knew that Cheng Zimo went to the martial arts school in the morning, but within two hours, Nie Wei saw him again in the office.

"My father said that I don't need to get involved in the martial arts school, and asked me to follow you and protect you." Cheng Zimo scratched the back of his head and said in a daze.

"Okay, then don't go." Nie Wei thought about it and understood what Mr. Cheng was thinking, so he didn't send Cheng Zimo to the martial arts school again.

As time passed, the development of Cheng's martial arts school also entered the regular stage. In one month, the number of apprentices in Cheng's martial arts school has reached 1,200, and this number is still increasing every day. The reputation of the Cheng brothers is also gradually rising. After all, several of them have real kung fu, and students can really feel this in the process of learning.

With fame and reputation, the development of Cheng's martial arts school obviously does not need Nie Wei to worry too much, and Nie Wei has no time to care about the problems of Cheng's martial arts school now, because he is preparing for his new movie.

Nie Wei had already written the script of "Inception" in 2005, but he has waited until now to shoot it.

The main point is the special effects. At that time, the special effects of Thunderbolt were not enough to support "Inception", and without 3D technology, the performance of this movie would definitely be weaker than the original version, which was not what Nie Wei wanted to see.

Moreover, Nie Wei was still unfamiliar with Hollywood at that time, and he had no connections or resources in Hollywood. With such an excellent work, Nie Wei was really afraid that he would be cheated by some jealous people.

But now it is different. PO Thunderbolt is already the world's top special effects company. They can perfectly control the latest 3D technology and are even developing better technology.

In Hollywood, Nie Wei is not "poor and penniless". He owns the second largest cinema chain in the United States and is already a powerful person in Hollywood.

So Nie Wei felt that the time was ripe to bring out this movie.

After deciding to form a crew, Nie Wei immediately sent the script to Zhang Ziyi. This woman had long been at the top of Nie Wei's invitation list.

Zhang Ziyi's reaction was also quite quick. After receiving Nie Wei's script, Zhang Ziyi stayed up all night and read the script from beginning to end. Then, at 3:30 in the morning, she called Nie Wei and firmly told him that the role was hers and no one else could take it away!

Nie Wei could hear that Zhang Ziyi was quite satisfied with the role, and it might also be that she was quite satisfied with the whole story.

After all, the strongest point of "Inception" is its story. The logic is so strong that many people want to watch it again after watching it once, just to figure out a small problem in it.

After Zhang Ziyi was confirmed to star in the film, the only thing left was the issue of pay.

The two sides reached an agreement very quickly on this point. On the one hand, Zhang Ziyi's offer was quite sincere, and on the other hand, Huayi was not a company short of money, so it only took half a day for both parties to sign their names on the contract.

When everything was settled, Zhang Ziyi smiled sincerely and extended her hand to Nie Wei and said, "Director Nie, I am looking forward to our cooperation this time."

Nie Wei smiled and shook Zhang Ziyi's hand and said, "I am also looking forward to it."

One hour after signing the contract, both companies simultaneously issued an announcement, announcing that Zhang Ziyi had joined Nie Wei's new movie. As soon as this news came out, it immediately caused a sensation on the Internet.

"Nie Wei's new movie is called Inception? There was no news about it before."

"Great, Nie Wei and Zhang Ziyi are teaming up, this movie must be very exciting, I'm so looking forward to it."

"The Martian hasn't even been released yet, and Nie Wei is going to make a new movie again? Is Nie Wei going to dominate both the summer and Lunar New Year seasons this year?"

"After seeing this news, I seemed to see that the hearts of the actors in the entire entertainment industry were in turmoil."

Just like that comment, as soon as this news came out, the actors in the entire entertainment industry were restless. You know, in the past, Nie Wei's main roles in movies were only played by actors from Huayi, but this time, it was unprecedented to find an actor who was not from Huayi.

They suddenly thought, do they also have the opportunity to participate in this movie, or even get an important role?

Thanks to Fantasy Paradise and 0773 for their generous rewards.
