Chapter 299: Maggie Cheung is here
Since getting on the boat, Wang Zifan has been obsessed with Zou Wenhuai, this old thing has to talk to everyone a few words, although the content of the chat is different, but in the end he will definitely mention that "Home Alone" premiered today, he is here to give the younger generations a platform, and he is hinting at the box office of the film "Home Alone" carefully prepared by DreamWorks.

On the surface, he was quiet, but in fact, Wang Zifan was already furious, and these rumors reached his ears, which shows the power of gossip.
"I have to teach this old thing a lesson!"
"Who does Mr. Wang want to teach?"
Just whispered, I didn't expect someone to answer, Wang Zifan turned to look at the person, it was a young man in his twenties, hesitantly wearing sunglasses, he couldn't see his expression clearly, but his heart was heard, he always felt unhappy, and said lightly: "Who are you?"
"Hello Mr. Wang, I'm Master Ye's disciple Ling Bo!" Ling Bo took off his sunglasses with a very respectful expression.
"Disciple Ye Chen!"
Wang Zifan's heart moved, but he could use these people to set Zou Wen Huai, and said quietly: "Your master is an expert in gambling, what does he teach you?"
Ling Bo tried his best to hide his excitement, leaned closer and hinted in a low voice: "If Mr. Wang wants someone to look good, you can ask my second senior brother for help, he is very good at this!"
Wang Zifan frowned and said, "Your second senior brother?"
Ling Bo hurriedly said: "His name is Ye Donglai, and he is my master's right-hand man when he manages the Lisboa Hotel, and he is in charge of intelligence!
Ye Xin still has an intelligence network!
Wang Zifan understood a little, no wonder the invitations were sent everywhere, it turned out to be this Ye Donglai's ghost, but now that he can use the other party, this little thing can't be taken care of, looking at Ling Bo in front of him, this is another ambitious young man, his eyes are full of desire to climb up, and he doesn't know how to hide it, and he said lightly: "You are very good, do a good job!"
"Thank you, Mr. Wang, I'll go find the second senior brother right away!" Ling Bo rushed back along the same road.
Ye Xi has such a disciple, no wonder he can compete with the Macau gambling king, but with Ye Chen's defeat, these talents are useless, do you want to co-opt them?
Wang Zifan groaned, and Ling Bo came over with a bald head.
"Mr. Wang, this is my second senior brother Ye Donglai!"
"Hello Mr. Wang!" Ye Dong came to see that he was really the boss behind the Oriental Emperor, and hurriedly adjusted his standing posture and greeted him respectfully.
"Hmm!"
Wang Zifan nodded slightly, and under Ye Donglai's anxiety, his rigorous performance turned into a smile and said: "Sure enough, you are a talent, I look at you!"
Ye Donglai said excitedly: "Thank you, Mr. Wang!"
Ling Bo also showed excitement, just like Wang Zifan just thought, Ye Xin and the gambling king lost in the competition for the Lisboa Hotel, was kicked out of the company, and was dying, their group of disciples also followed the downfall, the previous glory days are gone, there is nothing to do on weekdays, the income is meager, there are naturally opinions in their hearts, and they talk about the way out in private, they are very pessimistic, and now they meet the appreciation of the rich Hong Kong prince Fan, and the future has become bright again, not to mention anything else, just this gambling boat is enough for their brothers to eat for a lifetime.
Wang Zifan said: "I heard that you are in charge of controlling the intelligence under Old Man Ye Chen!"
Ye Donglai nodded hurriedly, Wang Zifan may feel very novel when he first hears it, but for the people of Macau, it is simply an open secret, because he heard some unsightly secrets, and some people even offered a reward for his head, and said tentatively: "What does Mr. Wang mean?"
Wang Zifan asked: "You also sent Mr. Zou Wenhuai's invitation letter?"
Ye Donglai hurriedly shook his head and explained: "Mr. Wang, I still know about the conflict between Golden Harvest and DreamWorks, how could I send an invitation to Zou Wenhuai, but I know that they came with Zheng Jiachun of the Zheng family, and the invitation letter from the Zheng family was indeed sent by me!"
Ling Bo quietly walked to Ye Donglai's side and reminded in his ear: "It's this Zou Wenhuai who offended Mr. Wang!"
Ye Donglai said in his heart, he pondered for a moment, and said carefully: "Mr. Wang, I heard that this Zou Wen is strict with himself, has a resolute personality, and has no other weaknesses except for women, and I am afraid it is not easy to get down in a hurry!"
Wang Zifan played with taste: "Have you heard a lot of things!"
Ye Donglai said: "In the past, many people who ran Lisboa and Golden Harvest Company would go to the casino to play, even if they couldn't inquire, these news could reach their ears!"
It's a shame that this kid isn't an agent!
Wait a minute!
Wang Zifan's eyes narrowed and asked, "Just now you said that Zou Wenhuai likes women?"
Ye Donglai nodded, his eyes condensed, recalled for a while, and said: "Zou Wen has a wife and three lovers, two of whom are still female subordinates, it seems that they are called Liu Lianghua and Wu Shufang! Hehe, these two of them got involved with Mr. Zou when they had a husband! Wu Shufang also gave birth to two sons to Zou Wenhuai!"
It turns out that Zou Wenhuai and Cao Cao both like to engage in wives!
Ling Bo listened with a blank eye, he was proficient in gambling, but he didn't know anything about these gossip secrets, but he was not willing to miss this opportunity, so he could only pretend to know the inside story, and occasionally nodded.
Wang Zifan said: "Are these children here?"
Ye Donglai heard the words and knew the elegant meaning, since he couldn't find a breakthrough from Zou Wenhuai, it was the same from his children, he lowered his head and flipped through the small book to check, and said happily: "Zou Wenhuai brought a daughter over, her name is Zou Chongheng, she was born to his wife!
Zou Chongheng, it seems that there is such a person!
Wang Zifan didn't understand until today that Zou Wenhuai only has Zou Chongheng, the daughter of Yuan Xihua in the main room, on the surface, in fact, he also has two illegitimate children, Wu Shufang is still a talented girl, a famous female writer in the 50s, haha, Zou Wenhuai likes wives, and Wu Shufang was a wife back then.
When she met the married Zou Wenhuai, Wu Shufang was working as a reporter in an evening newspaper in Hong Kong, with the pen name Lan Yin, Wu Shufang also had a husband at that time, but Zou Wenhuai was reluctant, and soon Wu Shufang divorced her husband, a few years later, the evening newspaper closed, Zou Wenhuai arranged for her to work in the Shaw Brothers Propaganda Department, in 1960, Wu Shufang gave birth to Zou Chongjue, and three years later gave birth to Zou Chongjin, coincidentally, shortly after Zou Chongjin was born, Zou Wenhuai's wife Yuan Xihua also gave birth to her daughter Zou Chongheng in the same hospital.
Zou Wenhuai and Yuan Xihua's daughter Zou Chongheng has been taught by Zou Wenhuai since she was a child, she herself is a film master from Stanford University in the United States, and her husband Chen Yingming studied stage design, and worked in Chen Guo's movie "Hong Kong Has a Hollywood" Li as the leading actor and was nominated for the Golden Horse Award for Best Actor, but as far as Wang Zifan knows, Zou Wenhuai's Yu Yin did not shelter Zou Chongheng for long, in the mid-nineties when Golden Harvest was listed, Zou Wenhuai's net worth was estimated at nearly 600 million Hong Kong dollars, but Zou Chongheng was in charge of Golden Harvest, the equity was only worth about 80 million Hong Kong dollars, and during this period, Golden Harvest also suffered many hostile takeovers.
Wang Zifan carefully recalled the listing information about Golden Harvest, and slowly found some interesting data, Golden Harvest was listed in 1994, as mentioned above, Zou Wenhuai's net worth was nearly 600 million Hong Kong dollars at that time, and in 2000, after the financial turmoil and investment failure, the net worth fell back to 400 million, and in 2007, he sold Golden Harvest shares, Malaysia GSC Cinemas, and successively cashed out 202 million and 189 million Hong Kong dollars, the dust settled, compared with other Hong Kong film and television predators such as Yi Yifu, Lin Jianyue's net worth is more than 10 billion at every turn, and Zou Wenhuai's property data of less than 400 million is obviously too shy, of which the property speculation is exactly 400 million Hong Kong dollars.
With a goal, Ling Bo sighed that the emperor had paid off, and he finally had a place to use, and said excitedly: "Next, wrap it up on me!"
Wang Zifan nodded slightly, in terms of setting up tricks for people, he still believes in these professionals, with clear responsibilities and a clear division of labor, and has always been very successful!
At this time, tourists are on the cruise ship, these people have different statuses, the area they live in is also different, the higher the level, the better the conditions and facilities, the room where someone lives is comparable to a mansion, and the bottom floor, there are also a few people crowded in a room, according to the information on the invitation letter to find their own room, after putting the luggage, most people come to the most lively place, that is, the hall on the first floor, where there are all kinds of gambling games, slot machines, etc., what you want to play, there is also a gambling hall on the second floor, although the scale is not as good as below, but many high-end, the third floor is a VIP gambling hall, you have to enter with permission, the fourth floor belongs to the entertainment venue, and the middle is a swimming pool, beautiful women in bikinis play in the water, and there are very few men who can get here.
The rules are set by the prince, and the purpose is not so simple, people like Yi Yifu, Qiu Degen, and Jin Yong are powerless to come in, so they can only be a foil, sometimes they sit down and rest and leave, and only Wang Zifan is left on the scene, hehe...... But sometimes it's not necessarily a good thing to enjoy too much, just like now!
"Afan!"
"Afan!"
Wang Zifan was lying leisurely on the seat, admiring the beauties one by one, when two coquettish cries suddenly sounded in his ears, which frightened him into a clever and numb scalp.
"Ah Hong!"
"Jiahui!"
Wang Zifan smiled embarrassedly, because Zhong Yihong and Guan Zhilin looked at each other with a vinegar taste, and no one paid attention to him.
Finally, Zhong Yihong blinked, and Guan Zhilin immediately showed a smug face.
This is not a child's game! Wang Zifan only dared to say it in his heart, and said with a smile: "Why are you here together?"
Zhong Yihong pouted and said, "Who is with her, I want to introduce a few friends to you!"
Hearing that the woman opposite looked down on herself, Guan Zhilin was angry in her heart, deliberately sat next to her, stretched out a lotus-like jade arm around Wang Zifan's neck, and said affectionately: "Brother Afan, I am about to graduate during the Chinese New Year, what do you say I should do?"
Wang Zifan said: "Don't you want to be a lawyer?"
Guan Zhilin blushed and said, "But before you become a lawyer, you have to ...... I didn't win a lawsuit during the simulation!"
Wang Zifan said unexpectedly: "Not a single one?"
Guan Zhilin's face turned even redder, and she was even more embarrassed under Zhong Yihong's smiling gaze.
Wang Zifan is also speechless, a lawyer can't win a lawsuit, so it's still called a lawyer!
Guan Zhilin said weakly: "Or I'll come back to act!"
Wang Zifan smiled: "Whatever, if you like it!"
"Humph!"
Zhong Yi's red hair shows a threatening voice, is being an actor to be an unspoken rule?
Wang Zifan hurriedly looked over here and said with a smile: "Ah Hong, what is your friend's name?"
Zhong Yihong stretched out her hand and pouted, "It's over there!"
"Zhang Manyu!"
The young girl who suddenly appeared in the swimming pool, Wang Zifan has strange eyes, Zhang Manyu hasn't debuted yet, Zhong Yihong actually knows?
"What Zhang Manyu? I'm talking about her!" Zhong Yihong angrily slapped Wang Zifan and pointed at the person behind Zhang Manyu.
"Oh!"
I don't know!
Wang Zifan was not interested at a glance, she looked quite beautiful, but her face looked sour and mean, and she still had to pretend to be a reserved appearance picked by Ren Jun, contradictory and ugly, and wondered: "How do you know her?"
Zhong Yihong's eyes dodged: "You don't remember, she's my cousin!"
Wang Zifan thought to himself, how did I know your cousin, even if I knew it, it was when I was in the training class, and at that time he was just a mainland boy who was ridiculed.
Zhang Manyu heard Wang Zifan call out his name, walked out of the pool, took a few steps closer, and said curiously: "Mr. Wang, do you know me?"
Wang Zifan said: "Your name is Zhang Manyu!"
Zhang Manyu smiled: "I am, you are Mr. Wang!"
"Hehe!" Wang Zifan smiled, and the conditioned reflex in his mind seemed to come to Zhang Manyu's information, born in Hong Kong, and then immigrated to the United Kingdom, her youth was spent in Kent, England, since she was a child, her mother was strictly disciplined in the traditional way, and during her study in the United Kingdom, she encountered discrimination as the only East Asian in the school.
In 1980, that is, last year, Zhang Manyu worked as a cashier in a bookstore in London, and later returned to Hong Kong for a vacation when she was photographed by an advertising agency, and then began to work as a part-time model.
Seeing Zhang Manyu in front of him, Wang Zifan thought of Liu Jialing, Liu Jialing naturally would not miss such a lively occasion, and got the invitation letter through Lizhi, in fact, when he first entered the film industry, Liu Jialing and Zhang Manyu's process was very similar, they were a series of vase images, and Liu Jialing made her debut to give people the feeling that she was very mature, very cold, and had a ladylike taste, at the end of the 80s, Liu Jialing participated in a series of electronic music, including in "The True Story of A Fei" , everyone suddenly saw that Liu Jialing had brought her cold and mature temperament to a new level.
And Zhang Manyu's first movie was "The Frog Prince", in the following years, Zhang Manyu, who quickly became popular, took over more than 20 movies, but the output was high but the imprint was not deep, and most of the roles were pure and delicate girls who did not need too much acting skills. 8 films, Zhang Manyu took over the film in her early years, and she once laughed at herself for working hard in bad commercial films, but a large number of film contracts undoubtedly provided a platform for showing herself and laid the foundation for her to grow into a powerful actor in the future.
