Chapter 90: Liu Lanxi who eavesdropped on the conversation
The extorted 500,000 yuan was successfully recovered, and Wang Jin is now very happy, and today he specially took a few posters and asked Xu Ziming to talk at the Peninsula Hotel again.
Wang Jin came later than before, Xu Ziming came earlier, and found a place to sit down very early, and Wang Jin slowly appeared in front of Xu Ziming's seat soon after.
The poster of "God of Gamblers" is very domineering, Xu Ziming did not interfere in doing it, it was carefully arranged by Wang Jin.
The handsome Zhou Runfa sat on a chair with gambling cards in his hand, and on the other side was a knife boy holding a pistol, and on the back of Zhou Runfa stood Chen Yulian and Guan Zhilin.
This part of the poster has changed somewhat from the poster of "God of Gamblers" in Xu Ziming's memory.
What surprised Xu Ziming was not these, but the text content on those promotional posters:
"In 1982, the drama of the beginning of the year, all 13 theaters of the Shaw Brothers Cinema Line were screened"
"Shaw Brothers watched "God of Gamblers" in the New Year, and the whole family came with good luck all year round"
The big star Zhou Runfa continued the love of "Shanghai Tang", the pretty beauty Chen Yulian was on the silver screen as a partner, and the newcomer knife boy Liu Dehua shined. The great beauty Guan Jiahui fascinates all beings. ”
""Best Partner" screenwriter Xu Ziming is another masterpiece, and the "God of Gamblers" New Year's blockbuster is waiting for you on the first day of the New Year. ”
"Ah Jin, why did you write these contents in", Xu Ziming pointed to the last line on the poster and asked angrily.
Wang Jin took a look at it, didn't he just write Xu Ziming as a screenwriter into the poster, what's the big deal.
He personally laid out a scrolled poster, put it on the table, and then smoothed it back and forth with his hands, and said proudly to Xu Ziming: "What's the problem with this, let's fill in the content that can arouse the audience's interest on the poster Plus your title of 20 million screenwriters, and Ah Fa, Ah Lian's fame will definitely be prosperous." The movie "God of Gamblers" can definitely exceed 20 million. "Wang Jin, this looks like it is inevitable.
Xu Ziming shook his head and asked, "Won't you distribute all the posters?"
If the poster of "God of Gamblers" is sent out, Xinyicheng will definitely know that he and Shaw Brothers will co-produce "God of Gamblers", Huang Baiming and they may have some criticism, but it will only be a drizzle.
The most difficult thing for Xu Ziming is Lei Juekun, this Uncle Lei has always been too strong, and he has always said the same, isn't Wang Jin completely letting himself have a conflict with Xinyicheng?
Sure enough, Wang Jin nodded and said: "The people of Oriental Daily are very efficient, they were printed yesterday, and they sold a lot this morning. ”
These are the ones they have.
"Ah Jin, did you do this on purpose?" Xu Ziming didn't want to question like this, where could Wang Jin see the clumsiness, except for being timid.
obviously gave him the business card of his own security company, but he changed his mind temporarily, and suddenly didn't want to risk fighting back the 500,000 yuan he was defrauded, and then he chose to go, which Xu Ziming didn't care, but it seemed that filling in his name was a bit too much.
"Ah Ming, Xinyicheng is really not suitable for you, I did this so that you and Xinyicheng can tear your face, I know you can't do it, so I help you do it, sooner or later, we will break up with Xinyicheng, the sooner you leave, the better, it is not a problem to create your own company with your ability. Wang Jin's courage became bigger and bigger, and his voice became louder and louder, completely forgetting what Xu Ziming had said.
"Is that enough?" Xu Ziming asked rhetorically.
"I didn't say enough, let's build our own company, you are the boss, and I am the director", Wang Jin became interested, and he was not afraid of boiling water.
"Ah Jin, don't mention it, and don't mention it, but you still mentioned it. Didn't you listen to me?" his voice grew louder and louder, and even the people chatting in other positions heard it.
"Also, you are also the director of New Art City. Xu Ziming directly broke it, and he didn't want to leave Xinyicheng yet.
With so many pairs of eyes paying attention all of a sudden, Wang Jin's original comfort and happiness were also swept away, but a thought passed in a flash, and he immediately came to his senses.
He kept reciting these three words silently in his heart, why did he Xu Ziming think of forming a new art city with Lei Juekun and others, the most critical point is that Xu Ziming has no experience in the operation of film companies, but now in Xu Ziming's view, this may be a one-sided word.
Xu Ziming joined Xinyicheng, a film company that withdrew from the stage of history in the 90s, out of his heart, and hoped to be able to lead it to glory with the people of Xinyicheng, rather than the tragedy of the original time and space.
Xu Ziming really felt all the drawbacks brought about by this place in Xinyi City, and the complexity was completely beyond his imagination!
The conversation with Wang Jin, Xu Ziming was angry, and now he didn't have the heart to continue the conversation, and after paying for the tea, he was ready to leave.
Wang Jin had an embarrassed and uncomfortable expression before, but now he really looked gloating, and he didn't even pay attention to whether Xu Ziming left. Instead, he leisurely spread out the previous poster and looked at it again.
Xu Ziming involuntarily touched his chin, then habitually brushed his nose, glanced at Wang Jin, turned his head and left.
But in my heart, I wondered why I ate something bad today and my brain was broken?
"Mr. Xu, I didn't expect you, who have always been gentle and elegant, to lose your temper so much. When Xu Ziming was about to move away, Liu Lanxi, a quirky and pretty woman, suddenly jumped out of nowhere.
"Miss Liu, why are you here? Xu Ziming absolutely did not believe that there would be such a coincidence.
Liu Lanxi's long hair is shoulder-length, her fragrant lips are spitting a trace of heat, and her whole person's dress has changed a lot compared to Xu Ziming's previous memories compared to Xu Ziming, and under the decoration of the pink dress, she looks beautiful but pure.
Wang Jin secretly covered his mouth with the poster, quietly walked behind Xu Ziming, put his hand on Xu Ziming's shoulder, and forcibly held back his laughter.
Xu Ziming suddenly realized, thinking of the reason why Wang Jin was not uncomfortable but secretly enjoyed after being scolded by himself.
A few days ago, Wang Jin asked himself a very inexplicable sentence, but he didn't expect it to be embarrassing to himself.
Good boy, I actually secretly brought Liu Lanxi over, looked at my embarrassment when I was angry, and then whispered to Wang Jin's ear, Xu Ziming said without being salty or light: "Okay, I was cheated by you today, I know that I don't like to be angry in front of girls." ”
Wang Jinle looked like he haha, Xu Ziming didn't use his mind, he took Liu Lanxi's hand and was about to go out.
was pulled by Xu Ziming without warning, Liu Lanxi did not get angry because of this, but tilted his head and looked at Xu Ziming's very uncomfortable face with a smile, and the small mouth that could say his heart's touch, and forcibly prevented himself from laughing.
"It's been a long time, and things have been too busy lately. After Xu Ziming saw Liu Lanxi get into the car, he said apologetically.
Liu Lanxi said with a smile: "It really doesn't matter, there have been too many films recently, and I couldn't panic for a while, so I wanted to ask you for advice, but I looked for you many times, and I didn't see you." Liu Lanxi, who was still smiling, became more and more blamed as she spoke, and she looked very uncomfortable.
"I thought you were a very responsible person, but I went to Xinyi City to find out that you were fishing for three days and drying nets for two days. You don't know, Xinyicheng has given you nicknames. Liu Lanxi shared what she saw and heard in the new art city.
"What a nickname. Xu Ziming was intrigued and asked curiously.
"Snake Boy. She replied crisply.
Xu Ziming gave the two bodyguards and drivers the Spring Festival holiday in advance, and began to pick up the steering wheel again, and was suddenly confused by this indecent sentence. Narrowly and dangerously brushed past an oncoming truck.
"I want to die, I hit the street!" the truck driver cursed as his head sticks out of the window.
A sudden brake made the beautiful woman in the back row panic and screamed, stared at the big charming eyes and asked, "Mr. Xu, don't you often drive?"
Xu Ziming does not drive often, usually his rich son is to let Pan Weiguo and Li Guozhong switch cars, and they haven't touched the steering wheel for half a year, but the main reason is Liu Lanxi's sudden sentence "Snake Son".
Cantonese "snake" means lazy, isn't "snake boy" just saying that Xu Ziming is a rich son who loves to be lazy, but Xu Ziming is a serious eight hard-working and brave, modest and low-key son, so Xu Ziming, can you not choke Xu Ziming?
"I drive a lot. As he spoke, he began to help Liu Lanxi in the co-pilot seat fasten his seat belt again, "You still owe me a treat, when will you pay it back." Xu Ziming's eyes stared at the front, and he chatted with Liu Lanxi.
Liu Lanxi, softened her somewhat messy hair, and said: "Go to Liyuan, that place has recently been renovated a lot of things, it looks quite fun, I'll help you buy tickets, and I'll be the right to do it today." ”
Liu Lanxi has taken on a lot of dramas, compared to the beginning when she came to Hong Kong, her waist bag is naturally much thicker, and she is saying that the cost of Liyuan is not much, what does she care about.
"Then Liyuan, you lead the way, I don't know. ”
"Don't you know? I don't know either. Liu Lanxi was very embarrassed and explained that he had been to Liyuan, but he had always taken the bus, and he remembered the specific route.
Xu Ziming parked the car on a small road, asked several passers-by on the road, but they didn't know, and after returning to the car with some dejection, he happened to see a somewhat familiar back in front of him passing through the car window.
"Beauty, do you know how to get to Liyuan?" he beckoned to the lady who was really looking down at her watch.
The lady looked in the direction of the voice, "Mr. Xu, why are you, I haven't seen you for a long time." From the tone of her voice, you can know very familiarly that this woman is definitely very familiar with Xu Ziming.
Xu Ziming felt very familiar before, but when he walked in, he realized that it was Huang Zaoshi who was filming "The Most Girl" together.
"Miss Huang, do you live nearby?" Liu Lanxi heard a familiar voice, tilted his head, and found that it was someone he knew from his crew, and shouted excitedly.
"Oh, Miss Liu is there too. Huang Zaoshi saw that there was an extra Liu Lanxi in the car, and estimated that Xu Ziming and Liu Lanxi would be dragged again, otherwise how could they be in the same car.
Huang Zaoshi does live nearby, after filming "Chasing Girls", she also took over a lot of films one after another, and her pockets became thicker, so she moved the address of Broadcasting Road to the vicinity of Salisbury Road in Tsim Sha Tsui.
However, the prices near The Peninsula Hotel are relatively high, and it is difficult for people without a stable income to choose to rent nearby.
Recently, wireless has been busy recording and promoting the tidbits of "God of Gamblers", Huang Zaoshi's fame has always been hot and cold, and Zhou Yanfa, Zhao Yuzhi and other popular movie stars are completely incomparable, and the schedule is also small.
"Does Miss Huang know how to get to Liyuan?" After a few people greeted him, Xu Ziming asked again.
