Chapter 197 #0196 】
Kowloon Walled City, underground boxing arena.
On the boxing ring, two fierce men with bare upper bodies punched to the flesh, fighting to the death.
The audience below erupted, raising their hands and shouting: "Good fight!"
"kill him!"
"Push the street!"
Amidst the blood and hustle and bustle, Dai Fengni was inexplicably excited, her pretty face flushed bright red, and her phoenix eyes sparkled with excitement.
She hugged a girl she had recently met recently, and comforted her: "Yanni, I know you don't like this kind of bloody scene, but who made me like it! You just have to bear it a little longer, and I will take you with me later." Go shopping in Mong Kok, buy bags if you like bags, buy clothes if you like clothes, everything is up to you!"
The girl in her arms is Hu Yanni, a Chinese-German mixed race, and a popular female star of Shaw Brothers.
Hu Yanni knew Qin Jian, the great director of Shaw Brothers. Qin Jian saw her charming and beautiful appearance, so he recommended her to Shaw Brothers.
Since Run Run Shaw attached great importance to this talented director, he readily agreed to Qin Jian's request, and Qin Jian immediately transferred Hu Yanni's contract to Shaw Brothers, and Hu Yanni officially joined Shaw Brothers. Last year, she became famous with her debut novel "When Will You Come Again".
It can be said that Hu Yanni is the most beautiful among the girls Dai Fengni made friends with.
Even though Dai Fengni compared Hu Yanni with Su Youwei and Nie Yongqin whom she had met, she had to admit that Hu Yanni was very special.
In addition, both of them have the word "Ni" in their names, which makes Dai Fengni feel that they are destined by fate, so Hu Yanni has been favored by her during this time.
"But I'm still scared, let's go!" Hu Yanni didn't dare to watch the bloody scenes on the ring.
She has been filming in Shaw Brothers all the time, and she has been exposed to civilization and elegance, where has she ever been in such a dirty and horrible place.
Seeing Hu Yanni trembling with fright, Dai Fengni couldn't bear it, so she got up and put her arms around her waist and said, "Okay then, let's go first! Master Su, get the car ready!"
Master Su didn't like the scary places like underground boxing rings too much. When Dai Fengni said that he was going to leave, he immediately waved the folding fan in his hand and called Chen Biao, "Get ready for the car, what else are you looking at?"
Chen Biao, on the other hand, had a reluctant expression on his face, and before leaving, he took another hard look at the ring.
Leaving the dark and terrifying underground boxing ring, Dai Fengni took Hu Yanni into the car.
At this moment, thump, thump, master Su knocked on the door outside very inappropriately.
"You're on the street, you're taking a rickshaw!" Dai Fengni opened the window, thinking that Master Su was going to ride the car.
Master Su bowed his head and apologized: "No Missy, I have something to report to you!"
"What the hell are you talking about? Believe it or not, I'll blow your head off!" Dai Fengni was still furious.
Master Su took out a letter with both hands, "Miss, I have been forgetting to hand this letter over to you!"
"What letter?"
"I don't know, it's plugged into the car! It's weird!"
"You help me take it apart!" Since it's strange, of course I can't take it apart by myself.
Dai Fengni picks up a lot of girls, and I don't know how many rivals she has made, so it's better to be careful when doing things.
Master Su hesitated for a moment, "This letter is for you, it's not good for me to open it! How about letting Chen Biao open it?"
"If you tell you to dismantle it, you will dismantle it! What are you talking about!" Dai Fengni scolded.
Master Su bit his head, first closed the folding fan in his hand and inserted it behind his neck, then spit on his fingers, and then tore open the envelope little by little.
"Well, here's a letter and a contract."
"What is it?" Dai Fengni was taken aback, she reached out to snatch it, and took a closer look, "Fuck you! Shi Zhijian, you are too deceitful!"
Looking at the pretty and furious Dai Fengni, Master Su didn't know what happened.
Chen Biao, who was in charge of driving, also looked confused.
Hu Yanni, who was sitting next to her, was even more surprised. In her impression, the eldest lady of the Dai family seldom lost her temper like this, but now she was very angry.
Who is this Shi Zhijian? Why does it sound so familiar?
Dai Fengni raised her hand and threw the letter and contract out. The curious master Su couldn't help but bent down to pick it up, and saw that it read: "Golden Harvest is a start-up, and all industries are waiting to be flourished. Today, crowdfunding is used to shoot the movie "Mythology" ", let you become an investor too!"
"Invest 1,000 Hong Kong dollars, and return 1,300 in the future! More investment, more rewards, action is worse than heart! Come on, the stage is as big as the dream! Be the master of the movie, and you can do it too!"
The latter contract was mailed by Golden Harvest Company. To put it bluntly, it was a financing contract.
Master Su looked at the letter and then at the content of the contract, and his heart was moved!
You must know that making movies in Hong Kong is still a very noble thing. Most of them are filmed by film companies, and film tycoons manipulate and direct behind the scenes.
Ordinary people like them can only pay to go to the cinema to see it.
But now, Shi Zhijian has given an opportunity for the public to participate. Everyone can become a producer, and everyone can become a movie boss. This feeling seems really cool!
Master Su is a movie buff through and through.
He usually has no hobbies, so he went to the cinema for three days when he was paid, watching the movies he liked to watch over and over again.
He also has a dream in his heart, that one day he can become a participant in a movie, so Shi Zhijian's promotional sentence "You can also be the master of the movie!" deeply stimulated him.
Secretly, Master Su squeezed the letter and the contract into a ball and stuffed it into his pocket, then took a deep breath to comfort Dai Fengni and said, "Miss, don't be angry, Shi Zhijian does this kind of thing, ghosts believe it!"
...
"You do this kind of thing, the devil will believe it!"
When Shi Zhijian took out batches of envelopes and contracts, and asked Zou Wenhuai and others to help pack them up and mail them out for crowdfunding, Zou Wenhuai let out a terrifying roar.
"We are filmmakers, not beggars! How can we get money from ordinary people?"
"How do you call making money? We are looking for them to invest, and there will be returns! One thousand Hong Kong dollars will return one thousand and three, what a deal!"
"Then what if the box office is not good?"
"Then one thousand yuan will become three hundred! Doing business is risky, how can you just make a profit without losing money?"
"Why didn't you write this sentence in the letter?"
"Write it down for fear that they will run away!"
Zou Wenhuai looked at He Guanchang and the others, "What do you think?"
He Guanchang: "Aren't we cheating?"
Chen Ziqiang: "Who knows the law? Tell me!"
Shi Zhijian raised his finger to make everyone quiet.
"I have read the current financial laws of Great Britain. The above laws only prohibit illegal financing, and are mainly aimed at the stock market! We are making movies now, and it is not financing, but crowdfunding!"
"Do you understand the concept of crowdfunding? If you don't understand, I can explain it to you. It is a fundraising method for helping others. You help me, and I help you. If you make money, everyone is happy together, and if you lose money, everyone is happy Don't be nervous, as long as the company is still there, everyone will have a chance to make money in the future!"
"In a word, we are crowdfunding for art! It is an aboveboard fundraising behavior!"
Although Shi Zhijian said so much in a roundabout way, Zou Wenhuai and others still understood that this is a very shameless fundraising behavior!
"The question is, does anyone believe in these ghost things you did?" Zou Wenhuai rolled his eyes.
"That's a good question!" Shi Zhijian raised his finger again, and said in a solemn tone, "So I sent it in your name! And I wrote it down, our Golden Harvest is about to sign contracts with big names like Wang Yu and Pan Yingzi. The two of them starred in this movie! Tell me, do those movie fans believe it or not?"
Zou Wenhuai almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
Why did he become a target again?
"Wang Yu and Pan Yingzi signed a long-term contract with Shaw Brothers, how could they sign with us at Golden Harvest?"
Everyone felt that Shi Zhijian's idea was unimaginable, and it was shameless to a certain extent to deceive others.
"Why not?" Shi Zhijian continued to make everyone vomit blood, "Organize and let Wang Yu steal the contract! Then burn Shaw's contract!"
