"Ring, ring, ring. ”
Zeng Zhiwei had never felt that the phone was ringing so pleasantly, so he quickly picked it up, but in the next second, the expression on his face became embarrassed:
"You kid, you're not afraid of the entertainment version tomorrow. ”
"What do you mean by that?"
"You turn your head to the left. Zeng Zhiwei looked to the left, although the light in the restaurant was dim, but at this time he deliberately searched,
I still saw Wei Xiong smiling at him at a glance.
"Hehe, what a coincidence. ”
"It's really a coincidence, okay, I won't tell you, be careful yourself, I just heard the bodyguard say that there seems to be a paparazzi following me today. ”
Paparazzi?
As if he had seen a ghost, Zeng Zhiwei was shocked in vain.
Hurriedly searched around, and he didn't know if it was psychological, he felt that there were a few people in the lobby who looked sneaky.
"It seems to be Mr. Wei. ”
At this time, Qiu Yueqing also saw Wei Xiong.
Of course, there is also Li Jiaxin, who is sitting opposite Wei Xiong.
Her eyes were full of jealousy, she was jealous of Li Jiaxin's beauty, but also of the attention, praise and favor that Li Jiaxin received.
If you want to talk about works, Li Jiaxin has them, but they are not heroines.
And the acting skills have been criticized.
But that's it, no matter where Li Jiaxin goes, she is everyone, the focus of all shots, and her fame is better than that of many big stars.
This is because Li Jiaxin's appearance is indeed impeccable.
Crowned the 'Hong Kong's Most Beautiful Beauty Pageant Champion'.
What's more, because Li Jiaxin is Wei Xiong's woman, no matter how big her wrist is, she has to be polite when she sees it. This is a treatment she never dared to expect.
"It's Ah Xiong. ”
"What's wrong with you?"
Seeing that Zeng Zhiwei's face was wrong, Qiu Yueqing thought that he had met Wei Xiong's relationship, and his heart was not only a little unhappy. Of course, she didn't show it on her face.
Why did she question eating in the lobby today?
The purpose is simple.
She doesn't want to be so sneaky anymore, she wants her relationship with Zeng Zhiwei to be exposed, if she can force the main palace away, it will naturally be best to succeed in taking the position.
If you can't, you can also stir up fame.
Even if they break up in the end.
Zeng Zhiwei had to give her some compensation. Anyway, as long as their relationship is exposed, no matter what the final result is, she is the beneficiary.
"It's okay, let's dine. ”
At this time, the waiter brought up the things they ordered one after another.
This restaurant is a well-known high-end Western restaurant in Hong Kong.
The steaks used are all flown in from Australia on the same day, the freshest, and attract many wealthy and gold collars to dine here every day.
But when he ate something in his mouth today, Zeng Zhiwei was like chewing wax.
He was worried that his scandal would be exposed.
Because he is a man with a wife and children, if his affair appears on the entertainment version, the result can be imagined, although he is not afraid of his wife.
……
Li Jiaxin asked, "Is there really a paparazzi following today?"
"I don't know. ”
Wei Xiong shrugged his shoulders with a smile: "Anyway, every day, whatever." By the way, I heard that you've been running to charitable foundations lately?"
"It's not just me, none of your women. ”
Li Jiaxin glanced at Wei Xiong.
"Now my aunt will come to the foundation to help almost every day as long as she has time, and of course I will go too, which is a sign of filial piety to my elders. ”
"Hehe, I don't think I'm going to be left behind. ”
At present, the Foundation is working on a project in Hong Kong to care for children with leukemia, which not only provides part of the medical fund for children with leukemia from difficult families.
It also includes keeping the child and their family in a good state of mind.
Better coordination with treatment.
As one of the signatories of the foundation, Lin Xueli has always liked children, so she often participates in some activities.
As the saying goes, pull a hair and move the whole body.
The future mother-in-law has been dispatched, and of course several future daughters-in-law can't turn a blind eye, so Zhou Huimin and others will often follow to participate in activities.
"Hmph, of course you can't be left behind. ”
"I'm going to visit the children in the hospital with my aunt tomorrow afternoon. ”
Hearing this, Wei Xiong shook his head with a smile.
Since he became popular, almost all of his women have to film and sing as hobbies or tools to kill time, all depending on their mood.
But to say the most unambitious,
It should be Li Jiaxin.
I never thought about achieving anything in my career, and when I told others that her acting skills were bad, I never cared, and I still had to do what I should do.
After dinner,
The two returned to the community where Li Jiaxin lived.
However, they did not enter the house immediately, but held hands and walked around the community, like an ordinary young couple.
During the walk, I met many people who were also walking.
Due to the dim light, there were not many people who could recognize them, and occasionally a few who recognized them did not come forward to disturb them.
After all, the people who can live here are rich people.
Celebrities naturally don't make a fuss like ordinary people.
And Li Jiaxin lives here, many residents know it, and they often encounter it, and they have long been accustomed to it. Occasionally, however, you can still hear the exclamations of young people.
After shopping for more than half an hour,
The two returned to the villa, seeing that it was almost 10 o'clock, Wei Xiong originally planned to take a mandarin duck bath with Li Jiaxin, but Li Jiaxin was killed.
"No, I'm going to wash it myself, you can watch TV first. ”
Looking at Li Jiaxin who ran upstairs,
Wei Xiong smiled, with his rich experience, he had guessed that Li Jiaxin was probably going to do some tricks, so he didn't catch up, turned on the TV and watched.
What he saw was the Phoenix Satellite TV Information Channel.
"Now broadcast a flash news that at the ongoing 19th Congress of the CPSU, Gorbachev put forward the concept of 'humane, democratic socialism'.
"Emphasizing that man is the 'measure of all things'. ”
"On the basis of socialist public ownership, individual ownership, and a variety of forms of operation, the implementation of the combination of state planning and the market;"
"Implement the principle of distribution according to work;"
"A system of high cultural literacy and morality;"
"The practice of socialist people's autonomy, democratization, openness and openness, a system of genuine equality among all nationalities, and a peaceful foreign policy." ”
"Now I would like to invite Mr. Zhao Yifeng, a current affairs commentator, to comment and analyze it for us. ”
"Mr. Zhao, what do you think of the concept of 'humane and national socialism' that Gorbachev put forward at the congress this time?"
"My personal opinion. ”
"This is a correction and reform of the old 'Stalin model' by Gorbachev, and at a time when the domestic economy of the Soviet Union is becoming more and more difficult,"
"Reform is very necessary. ”
"And Gorbachev is a person who is deeply influenced by Western culture, and in my personal opinion, this is just the beginning, just a concept. ”
"There will be more detailed reform plans in the future. ”
"There's politics and there's economics. ”
But the Chinese often say: don't use strong medicine for old diseases, the Soviet economy will fall into the current situation, which is caused by the gradual accumulation of various reasons over the past few decades. ”
"It's a stubborn disease. ”
"If you want to implement reforms, you should do it slowly, not in a hurry. ”
"Otherwise, it is very easy to cause turmoil. ”
Wei Xiong listened and nodded thoughtfully, this commentator named Zhao Yifeng had a bit of vision, and in a few words, he pointed to the key points of Soviet reform.
However, many things are often obsessed with the authorities.
And outsiders don't know what kind of situation Gorbachev is facing.
"Knock knock knock. ”
At this moment, there was a sound of high heels hitting the ground, Wei Xiong looked up at the stairs, and in an instant, a pair of eyes immediately became bright and bright.
I saw that the dress that Li Jiaxin was wearing was gone.
Instead, there is a bunny girl costume.
a black low-cut, high-leg bodysuit, a pair of shaggy rabbit ears, and two long slender thighs wearing fishnet-like black stockings;
On his feet are a pair of high heels more than ten centimeters high.
Dressed like this, in addition to being extremely sexy, Wei Xiong also thought of the word 'Sao'. I could see that his fire was rising one after another.
"Husband, are you good-looking?"
……
"Boss, it's here. ”
Putting down the newspaper, Wei Xiong got out of the car, and then took the elevator directly to the office on the top floor.
left a sentence: "Ask Mr. Zeng to come to my office." ”
A few minutes later, Zeng Zhiwei, who had a depressed face, came to Wei Xiong's office, and Wei Xiong, who was flipping through the documents, looked up,
Smiled slightly, put down the papers, picked up the newspaper on the table, and flipped to the entertainment section.
Zeng Zhiwei is obsessed with Qiu Yueqing, and he cheated on his wife, so it's not exciting! Hehe, who wrote this title, the writing is good, not bad. ”
I saw that on the page he opened, there was a clear big picture.
In the picture, Zeng Zhiwei is surrounded by several paparazzi, protecting Qiu Yueqing to the death, and in the background is a high-end looking Western restaurant.
"You're embarrassed to gloat, it's not all your fault. ”
Zeng Zhiwei said angrily.
"It's a complete coincidence that I met you, but this is also your own doing, I told you a long time ago, let you leave that woman to check the electricity, you just don't listen. ”
"What can I do. ”
"And when you eat out, you should go to the box, and the two of you sit in the lobby like this, for fear that others won't know about your relationship?"
"So you brought it on yourself. ”
"Originally, I also thought of the box, and I still remember to wipe my mouth when I ate secretly, but Qiu Yueqing said that I was in the lobby, and I agreed with a soft heart, who knows......"
Zeng Zhiwei's expression became even more depressed.
This morning he had a fight with his wife at home.
In his opinion, this incident should not have happened, but it happened inexplicably, and he was so angry in his heart that he wanted to beat someone.
"You said Qiu Yueqing wanted to sit in the lobby?"
Zeng Zhiwei was stunned.
He is not a fool, on the contrary, he is very smart, hearing Wei Xiong ask, he immediately understood what Wei Xiong meant: "You mean Qiu Yueqing did it on purpose?"
"What do you say?"
Wei Xiong smiled faintly.
"If my guess is correct, Qiu Yue informed the paparazzi early in the morning, even if there was no coincidence yesterday when I met me, there would still be a paparazzi. ”
"-dare to me. ”
Zeng Zhiwei thought about it, it was really like this.
Qiu Yueqing booked the restaurant last night, and after arriving at the restaurant, Qiu Yueqing, who used to be quite obedient, questioned that he wanted to sit in the lobby again.
He didn't think much of it at the time.
Now that I think about it, he was really calculated.
Any man who is calculated by a woman will not be in a good mood, let alone a person with status and status like Zeng Zhiwei, his face suddenly gloomy.
"Again, you deserve it. ”
"What did I tell you before? This woman is scheming. Men, it's right to find a woman, there is no cat in this world that doesn't steal. ”
"But you should also wipe the bright spots of your eyes, don't look at the beautiful face and big, just hug them in your arms. ”
Seeing Zeng Zhiwei's gloomy face and not speaking,
Wei Xiong also put away his schadenfreude.
"Later, you will warn Qiu Yueqing and tell her not to talk nonsense. It's not a big deal for such a small thing, after all, your status is here. ”
"After a few days, it stopped. ”
"As for my sister-in-law, you can say a few more good words, man, it's normal to be a joke on the spot, I believe my sister-in-law will forgive you. ”
"But then you have to clean up with Qiu Yueqing. ”
"This kind of woman is too scheming, and it's not good to stay around. One day when you fall asleep, maybe you'll take a pair of scissors and cut the guy below you. ”
"You don't have to curse me like that. ”
At this time, Zeng Zhiwei actually remembered Qiu Yueqing's excellent ventriloquism very shamefully.
"Hehe, the most poisonous woman's heart. ”
"That's all you have to say, you can do it yourself. In Wei Xiong's opinion, the scandal between Zeng Zhiwei and Qiu Yueqing is really just an ordinary trivial matter.
Like he just said.
Zeng Zhiwei's identity and status are here.
Isn't it normal to have a scandal with an ordinary actress? It's just that the scandal is true, so what? and I didn't do anything hurtful.
On a number of ethical issues.
The media, and even the public, are accustomed to treating the rich and powerful on a larger scale.
For example, if a person suddenly discovers that his neighbor is having an extramarital affair with another woman, he will most likely accuse him of immorality, unfaithfulness to his wife, and so on.
But if he sees a rich man in the newspaper and a so-and-so actress has an affair.
You will feel accustomed to it.
As for why he thought Qiu Yueqing was scheming from the beginning? He couldn't tell why, anyway, he just didn't like it, although Qiu Yueqing was good-looking.
"Okay, let's not talk about that. ”
"Now that the filming of Tales of the Night has come to an end and post-production is underway, this is the first big-budget film we have invested in. ”
"You have to take care of it. ”
"All special effects shots must be of the highest standard, and if there is not enough money, it can be appropriately improved, but it must not be made high. ”
"Don't worry about this, I'm close to follow up. ”
"However, because the branch in Hong Kong has just been established, the technical reserves and personnel quality are insufficient, and only about 30% of the special effects production can be completed. ”
"Most of the special effects had to be done in the United States. ”
"Some of them also have to cooperate with Industrial Light & Magic, otherwise the effect will not meet the requirements. ”
Wei Xiong nodded.
"Everything has to go through a development process, especially technology, you just have to make sure that the special effects you make meet the requirements of the script. ”
"I'll talk to John about the production stuff. ”
"I understand that. ”
"In addition, the preparation of the crew of "Terminator 2" has also begun, this is a real sci-fi film, and I have already agreed with Cameron. ”
"You pick some people from the company, all kinds of positions. ”
"In a few days, I will report to Cameron, learn how Yankees make science fiction films, and we have no problem making romance films and comedies. ”
"But making a real sci-fi film is a far cry from Hollywood. ”
"You have to develop some talent. ”
Zeng Zhiwei's eyes lit up.
Wei Xiong's decision was too correct.
Take "Star Wars" as an example, so far most directors in Hong Kong still can't figure out how Americans make such a real science fiction film.
Even if there are some people who think they know.
I only know what it is, but I don't know why.
Other photographers, gaffers, and the like were even more blinded. Although both Hong Kong Baptist University and City University of Hong Kong have related majors.
But compared to Hollywood, first of all, it lags behind in terms of theory.
Because the development of film special effects technology is so fast, if George Lucas were to shoot "Star Wars" now, the visual effects would definitely be several times better.
What you learn in school is always the basics.
The truly cutting-edge, up-to-date technology is in the hands of those who practice it.
What's more, experience is not something you can get by knowing theory, but also needs to be mastered through practice, and if someone leads the way,
It will undoubtedly be much faster to master.
"I'll start selecting people right away, I was thinking about the shortage of talents in this area of the company, but now I have a good teacher. ”
"Cameron really has a knack for making sci-fi films. ”
"Be careful when choosing people. ”
"Choose one that is young, has a flexible head, and has a solid foundation. Also, if you want to be loyal to the company, don't change jobs as soon as you come back. ”
"I'll pay attention to this. ”
Although he has a good personal relationship with Wei Xiong, when he really talks about serious things, Zeng Zhiwei does not dare to be sloppy. In other words, he can put himself in the right place.
……
After returning to the office, Zeng Zhiwei asked his secretary to inform Wang Jing, Wu Yusen, Tsui Hark, Cheng Xiaodong, Liu Zhenwei and other major directors of the company.
It's three o'clock in the afternoon,
The meeting was held in the company's conference room 2.
As the top executive of Webster Films, it is impossible for him to know which young people in the company are flexible and have a solid foundation.
It also depends on the recommendation of the main directors,
However, some of them are qualified.
Another point, Wei Xiong means that every position must be had, which means that the director must also choose one to serve as one of Cameron's deputies.
He believes that such an opportunity must be wanted by many people.
But to whom?
No matter who he gave it to, it seemed that he was biased and easy to cause conflicts, so he thought about it, and simply took it to the conference room, and everyone discussed and decided together.
After the secretary goes out,
He hesitated and dialed Qiu Yueqing's number.
