After a few days, the filming process was very smooth, and He Zilong was also energetic at the scene.

By the time it was the tenth day, I saw that the progress had been completed a lot ahead of schedule. In line with the idea of cheering everyone up and striking while the iron is hot, He Zilong invited all the leading actors and second actors, as well as the director and main staff, to eat, drink and have fun there in a restaurant that night. For other people who can't come, everyone wraps a red envelope and has a day off, which can be described as a great joy.

As a well-known financial center, Hong Kong's pace of life and pressure are naturally among the highest in the world. To a certain extent, such high pressure has also contributed to the formation of Hong Kong's "city that never sleeps".

In particular, Lan Kwai Fong is the first impression many people have of this city that never sleeps. The area is lined with bars and nightclubs, and tourists and locals alike can be seen wandering the streets at all times. In fact, there are plenty of interesting dark night spots in Hong Kong.

Hong Kong's name is not for nothing: there's plenty to go and have fun 24 hours a day, from arts and culture to late-night parties to midnight food.

After dinner around 7 o'clock, the group came out of the hotel.

Because it happened to be Wednesday, the group went straight to Happy Valley at the suggestion of the director.

Of course, if you think that Happy Valley here is that kind of place, you are very wrong. This valley is not another valley, but another thing!

Every Wednesday, the Hong Kong Jockey Club organises the Happy Valley Horse Racing Night, where you can enjoy exciting horse racing, live entertainment and, of course, a cold beer. In addition to die-hard horse racing fans, there were also celebrities in the audience, immersed in the joyful atmosphere of the scene. The director of the TV station said that he is famous and a little famous, and it seems that he usually has a lot of friends with people who like similar activities, even if he has a job to start up, he always remembers to come here to relax!

Here, He Zilong really met a lot of well-known people in Hong Kong, there is no casino here, but horse racing, hehe, it seems to have a similar meaning. Betting on horses is a hobby for many Hong Kong people before the return!

Everyone who has watched Hong Kong movies and TV dramas should have the impression that many of the characters in them will bet on horses, and even remember them when they are working.

When watching old Hong Kong movies, we often see the plots of Hong Kong citizens gambling on horses, especially in Hong Kong gambling movies, and some people even indulge in this. In the movie, I often see: a group of people excitedly facing the betting scene on the TV, shouting: rush, rush~.

Perhaps, a visitor from the mainland is mostly concerned about the negative impact, but there are also fellow travelers who believe that Hong Kong has entered a welfare society, and most people only pay 10 Hong Kong dollars at a time to gamble on a horse. Even if you shoot on the spot, it is only a hundred yuan a day, or a few hundred yuan a week, which is just a "piece of cake", so as not to let it break the bank too much. It seems that "the pros still outweigh the disadvantages!"

As one of the four Asian tigers, Hong Kong does have such confidence, just take the present in the 90s. The average income of ordinary people in China is 300 to 400 yuan a month, and the income of Hong Kong people here is already close to 10,000 yuan a month.

And in another ten years, when the average person in China has an income of three or four thousand yuan per month. Although it is very difficult for Hong Kong people to buy a house, in terms of income, after more than ten years, the average is at least about 20,000 yuan.

For the elite and highly educated, there will now be tens of thousands of yuan a month's income. More than a decade later, the middle class of people with a monthly income of more than 100,000 abounds.

On the big night, the racecourse stands are almost full, and the crowds are crowded, which is magnificent. The noise is like a village bazaar. There's an aura that makes you feel like a thrilling thrill is coming. This picture reminded He Zilong of the time when he bought train tickets for the Spring Festival!

These people are men and women, young and old. They hold the "Horse Sutra" in their hands, or carry drinks and fast food, and their situation is like "hardcore" horse fans at first glance.

"Look, it's the BMW King 13 that came out, it seems that it is also in good spirits today, I will definitely press it later......" Arima fans suddenly shouted excitedly, pointing to the competition field below.

Before each horse race, the horses should be shown on a small field next to the track for the horsemen's reference. The horse in front of him was obviously the victorious general, and the man pointed at it, attracting the attention of many people.

On the TV screen, experts and horse critics "blow the water", what will appear next The weight, shape, winning rate of the famous horse, etc. And each horse will have a rather funny nickname: "Playing the side stove", "Leaping Dancer", "Diamond Treasure", "Galloping", "Shrimp King" and so on. Every time a horse appears, it causes many horse fans to scream.

The feelings are the same as celebrities coming out, so many fans!

After a while, the big screen countdown shows a minute reading of "8,7,6,5,4,3......", at which point horses appear on the track for a brief adaptive run, and some veterans go straight to the barrier. Fans began to hurried down from the stands and flocked to the halls, ready to shell out for tickets.

The director of filming is obviously also an old horse fan, shouting whether he bought a horse together. Then I ran over as well. There were many responders, and He Zilong was originally curious, so he also followed. However, in order to take care of the safety of the actresses, he walked very slowly, and several actresses, including Guan Zhilin and Guan Xiaolin, walked slowly together.

In fact, there is no such urgency, and the racecourse will reserve enough time for fans to buy tickets at the time of each race. All horse fans have to worry about is to bet on which horse will win.

He Zilong kept up with the crowd and did the same.

A purchased "cash card" is inserted into the card reader along with a "selection card", and then the machine will "spit out" a new "cash card" that has been deducted money and the same "selection card", at this time, the back of the card is printed by the computer with some English letters, "race", the code of the selected horse and other bets.

"Do you want to choose a few too, don't worry, I'll treat you......" Looking at those actresses and related to them, He Zilong said with a smile. The fat brother on the side didn't buy it, just smiled.

"No, it's not a good thing to gamble, it's not a good ...... to gamble, it's not good" The Guan sisters obviously thought of their father, who was a good gambler, and refused to buy a horse ticket with a shadow in their hearts. The other actresses also only had one or two tickets to try, and they bought a few at random.

As for Fa Ge's complete non-participation in the behavior, He Zilong also takes it for granted. Don't watch Fa Ge play the God of Gamblers movie, but as long as you know him, you will know that he himself is very opposed to gambling. And in reality, he will not participate in gambling, and the God of Gambling in the movie is completely different people!

Fa Ge's good friend Wu Mengda used to be addicted to gambling as much as his life, but every time he gambled, he would lose, and he owed hundreds of thousands of yuan when he first debuted. At that time, the borrower forced him day and night, forcing him to almost commit suicide, and had to beg Fa Ge for a loan, but Fa Ge was afraid that he would make a mistake again and again, so he didn't borrow. Instead, he arranged for him to take over the play, and chatted with the person who borrowed the money to let them reduce the interest.
