Zhou Xingchi split his legs, Zhang Mian !!—— a huge headline on the front page of entertainment in Sing Tao Daily caught the attention of all readers.
This is an exclusive surprise.
According to the article, at half past two in the afternoon of November 15, a reporter who had been squatting outside the community where Zhou Xingchi lived suddenly found a suspicious person.
The man was wearing an overcoat, a scarf around his neck, and sunglasses on his face.
almost wrapped himself tightly, but after careful identification, the reporter still recognized this person as his target: Zhou Xingchi.
After Zhou Xingchi left the community through the back door, he boarded a taxi.
The reporter hurriedly took a taxi to follow.
After driving for about 20 minutes on the road, Zhou Xingchi took a taxi into a community, and the reporter did not immediately show up for an interview.
Instead, they continued to follow secretly.
Finally, Zhou Xingchi was witnessed entering a room.
The reporter waited outside the room for almost two hours, and finally the emperor lived up to his wishes, and finally waited for Zhou Xingchi to come out of the room.
and witnessed Zhou Xingchi kissing a woman goodbye.
This woman is none other than Zhang Meng, who had an affair with Zhou Xingchi three years ago, and this discovery shocked the reporter.
This was followed by a series of photographs.
There are several photos published in the report, and it can indeed be clearly seen that it is Zhou Xingchi and Zhang Meng, not to mention the angle, even the distance is just right.
Zhou Xingchi, who originally thought that he was ungrateful for cooperating with Lin Jianyue,
Now there is another title of negative man.
Since officially living with Zhou Xingchi, Li Meixian has been dutifully a woman behind her, especially in the past year or so.
Li Meixian put more energy into running a small family with Zhou Xingchi.
In the whole of 1989, only one film was filmed.
It can be said that Li Meixian made a lot of sacrifices for Zhou Xingchi, but what she paid now is Zhou Xingchi's split.
On the day of the "Sing Tao Daily" report,
Some paparazzi photographed Li Meixian leaving from the villa where she lived with Zhou Xingchi with her luggage, and the matter of Zhou Xingchi's splitting of his legs next time is tantamount to being confirmed.
The newspapers were almost full of accusations.
There are those who accuse Zhou Xingchi of being irresponsible, and there are also those who accuse Zhang Meng of being a junior and intervening in the relationship between Zhou Xingchi and Li Meixian.
But those who blamed Zhou Xingchi were in the majority.
Because men generally take the initiative in this kind of thing, and no matter how they explain it, Zhou Xingchi finally failed Li Meixian.
For the next period of time, the three people involved became the target of the paparazzi.
Zhou Xingchi and Li Meixian are a little better, they don't go out directly, or they go out as little as possible, or choose a time period when there are fewer people to go out.
Even if the paparazzi want to harass, they can't do anything.
But Zhang Meng was a little annoyed.
She has to go to the crew almost every day, and those paparazzi are squatting outside the crew, even if she has the heart to dodge, she doesn't have the ability.
If it weren't for the fact that she was escorted by the crew every day when she entered and exited the crew, she wouldn't dare to go to the crew.
Those paparazzi are really like mad dogs for the news.
It really made her annoyed and helpless, and it lasted until "Comic Weilong" was completed, and she hid at home and didn't show up.
It can be seen that the exposure of the relationship was not done by her.
In fact, it is.
She asked Zhou Xingchi to go to her that day, just to 'explain', she didn't expect Zhou Xingchi to be followed by the paparazzi so carelessly.
made her suddenly involved in the whirlpool of public opinion.
No woman will like the title of 'Little Three Who Destroys Other People's Feelings', and she is certainly no exception, but now she has to accept it.
Unless she publicly denies her relationship with Zhou Xingchi.
In fact, she also thought about it seriously, but later dispelled this idea, mainly because even if she publicly denied it, others might not necessarily believe it.
Rather than end up with the infamy of being a junior and getting nothing, it's better to acquiesce.
Now that Li Meixian has moved out of the villa where she lives with Zhou Xingchi, the two should have broken up, and Zhou Xingchi will be hers from now on.
……
Cui Muqing knelt on the ground of the carriage and said while busy: "Boss, I heard that Liu Luanxiong has been going to the crew to find Li Ruotong recently. ”
Wei Xiong asked nonchalantly, "Since when?"
At this time, he was looking at a document - the box office data of "Resident Evil", and just looking at his expression, he only knew that he was very satisfied with the box office.
$138 million!
This is the film's next draw at the box office in the United States.
Although the box office is much lower than that of another sci-fi film produced by Webster, "Tales of the Night 1", it is a different matter compared to other films.
You must know that so far, there are less than 10 movies that have grossed more than $100 million in the United States this year.
Resident Evil is third among them.
This ranking speaks volumes. can achieve such good box office results, in addition to the quality of the film itself is really good.
The choice of release time is also crucial.
"Resident Evil" will be released on October 30, that is, on the eve of Halloween, a very important traditional holiday in the West.
It's a festival about ghosts.
And "Resident Evil" itself is a sci-fi film of the horror film genre, and it will undoubtedly be more favored by the audience when it is released at this time.
And that's exactly what happened.
It is estimated that the film's global box office will likely exceed $300 million, which is an exciting number for any film.
"It should have been four or five days. ”
Four or five days? In other words, Li Ruotong was targeted by Liu Luanxiong shortly after returning to Hong Kong?
Previously, the crew of "Yangmen Female General" had been filming in the mainland, and it was not until a week ago that they returned to Hong Kong to continue filming in Clear Water Bay and Songcheng.
"Well, what is he doing to find Tongtong?"
Cui Muqing smiled: "Of course I sent flowers, and I made an appointment to eat, but I was all rejected by Li Ruotong, thanks to his perseverance." ”
"Huh. ”
Wei Xiong smiled faintly, his sense of this Liu Luanxiong was worse than Lin Jianyue, and in his memory, Liu Luanxiong was a standard playboy.
I don't know how many actresses he has slept with.
Including Li Jiaxin and Guan Zhilin, they all fell under his stick and sweet dates one after another, and also caused the perverted peachy news of the golf goal.
He wasn't much better than he is now.
"Young master, the HSBC Building has arrived. At this time, Wu Wenzheng's voice sounded in the carriage. Hearing this, Wei Xiong tidied up his clothes and got out of the car.
"By the way, send someone home and drive that white Jaguar. ”
"Yes, young master. ”
The office of the joint investment company is located here.
When Wei Xiong arrived at the conference room, Ho Hongsen, Fok Yingdong and Li Ka-shing had already arrived, and they seemed to be chatting quite happily.
"I'm sorry I'm late. ”
Huo Yingdong said with a smile: "It's set at 4 o'clock, it's 3:50 now, and there are still ten minutes left, who is the three of us old guys who came early." ”
"Respecting the old and loving the young is the traditional virtue of the Chinese nation, and since all three have arrived, it means that I am late. ”
Wei Xiong smiled and sat down on the chair.
At this time, in addition to Wei Xiong, Ho Hongsen, Huo Yingdong, and Li Ka-shing, there were only Huang Jiankun, the president of the United Investment Company, in the conference room.
The four of them chatted a few digressions and then turned to the topic.
"There is only one theme for today's meeting, and in the near future, Webster Capital will launch a big operation in Japan, will the joint investment be involved?"
Hearing this, He Hongsen and the others looked at each other.
What can make Wei Xiong call it a big operation is obviously not a matter of hundreds of millions or billions, at least it is a big operation in tens of billions.
"I must state that this operation is risky. ”
"And this action is very important, and there will be mistakes, if the joint investment is also going to act together, it must be operated together with Weishi Investment. ”
"In addition, co-investment will have to sell off its assets from now on. ”
Since the establishment of the joint investment, more than 90% of the investment projects have been concentrated in Japan, and it has always followed the actions of Merriam-Webster.
The abundance of use is not enough to describe.
In less than two years, the original principal amount of HK$3.5 billion has increased nearly fivefold, and the total assets on the books have reached as much as HK$15.2 billion.
made the three of them feel that the original investment was too right.
Huo Yingdong frowned slightly: "Can you tell us about the big action you are referring to." Also, how risky is the operation?"
He was rightly wrong to ask.
Although the three major families are all in the top 10 in Hong Kong.
But after all, it can't be compared with the Wei family, of course hundreds of millions are fine, but billions, or even tens of billions, they have to think carefully.
Wei Xiong knew that Huo Yingdong and the three of them would have this question, so he already had a draft in his heart.
"As we all know, the 70s and 80s were a period of take-off and explosion of Japan's economy, with the economy growing at a double-digit rate every year. ”
"The whole country is prosperous. ”
Not long ago, Mitsubishi Real Estate purchased 14 skyscrapers in Rockefeller Center in New York at a sky-high price of 200 billion yen. ”
"But it all seems to me to be an illusion, or rather a bubble in it. ”
"Four years ago, in '85, the United States, Japan, West Germany, the United Kingdom and France reached the 'Plaza Accord' at the Plaza Hotel in New York. ”
"The deal was born because the dollar exchange rate was too high at the time, which caused a large trade deficit. ”
"So the U.S. wants to improve the U.S. balance of payments imbalance by devaluing the dollar to increase the export competitiveness of its products. ”
So Britain and West Germany and France were united to put pressure on Japan. ”
Since then, the yen has appreciated rapidly. At that time, the exchange rate rose from around 220 yen per dollar to 150 yen per dollar a year later. ”
"As a result of sharp changes in the exchange rate, assets made up of U.S. Treasuries incurred a paper loss. ”
"As a result, a large amount of money has entered the domestic market to avoid exchange rate risks. ”
"At that time, the Japanese government began to implement quantitative easing in order to subsidize export industries that had been hit by the sharp appreciation of the yen. ”
"Interest rates in the market have fallen, and there is a surplus of liquid money. ”
"As a result of the combination of these factors, there has been a boom of speculation in Japan, especially in the stock market and land market. ”
"I'm sure you've seen how crazy the Japanese stock market and property market have been in the past two years. ”
"But most of this is an economic bubble created by international funds and Japan's loose monetary policy, and it is just an illusion. ”
"And I think the bubble is on the verge of bursting. ”
Huo Yingdong and the three of them listened carefully to Wei Xiong's analysis, nodding their heads while listening, obviously thinking deeply, and after Wei Xiong finished speaking, Li Ka-shing asked:
"What happens if the bubble bursts?"
Wei Xiong smiled slightly: "What will happen if a bubble is punctured by a needle?"
Ho then asked, "Can you be sure when the bubble will burst, and how risky is this operation?"
"Right now I don't have a definite time. As for the risks, I'm only half sure. ”
Wei Xiong didn't mean to exaggerate the risks.
The world has already undergone many changes because of his changes, and no one can guarantee that the crisis in his memory will happen on time.
It may be earlier or later.
Only half sure!
The stock market is inherently speculative, and half of the certainty is actually very high, not to mention that it has been a wealth and danger since ancient times.
Thinking of Wei Xiong's gains in the U.S. stock market crash, they couldn't help but be excited.
As for what to do if you lose the bet?
When they first established the joint investment company, they invested 1 billion Hong Kong dollars alone, and even if they lost it all, they could still bear it.
After Huo Yingdong and the three of them glanced at each other, Huo Yingdong asked, "Just according to your meaning." ”
Hearing this, Wei Xiong smiled slightly: "Okay, Manager Huang, starting tomorrow, we will gradually sell off the assets in the company's hands and collect the funds." ”
"I understand. ”
……
When he left the United Company, it was almost dinner time, and Wei Xiong drove the Jaguar to Songcheng and parked the car in the parking lot.
He didn't get out of the car, but called Li Ruotong.
As early as when the relationship was formally established, he gave Li Ruotong a new motorcycle mobile phone so that the two could contact each other frequently.
The call was not answered, and it took a few minutes before Li Ruotong called back.
"It's almost time to call it a day, I'm in the parking lot. ”
"Well, today's scene has been filmed, you wait for me for a while, I'm removing my makeup, and it will be fine soon." Li Ruotong's voice came from the phone.
It seems that there is a deliberate effort to lower the volume, probably for fear of being heard.
"Well, you don't have to rush. ”
After hanging up, Wei Xiong rolled down the window and lit a cigar. Just then, a new Rolls-Royce pulled up in a parking space not far from him.
Nowadays, Hong Kong can afford to drive a Rolls-Royce, but everyone is an ordinary person.
He couldn't help but take a second look.
Soon, a slightly wealthy man with a pair of glasses, about 40 years old, and a bouquet of roses in his hand, got out of the car.
It was Liu Luanxiong that Cui Muqing had just mentioned to him.
It seems that as Cui Muqing said, Liu Luanxiong is really persevering.
After Liu Luanxiong got out of the car, he left the parking lot directly, and Wei Xiong did not follow, but continued to smoke his cigarette, as if he didn't see Liu Luanxiong.
Almost half an hour passed.
Li Ruotong appeared in Wei Xiong's sight, walking towards his car, followed by a man with flowers, who is not Liu Luanxiong?
……
"Miss Li, this is the fourth time, you should feel my sincerity, and I just want to invite Miss Li to dinner. ”
Liu Luanxiong said as he walked, his tone was not very good, and he should have been rejected again.
"I'm sorry Mr. Liu, I don't have time at night. ”
Li Ruotong replied politely, but there was obvious impatience between his eyebrows, since the crew returned to Hong Kong, this Liu Luanxiong has come every day.
She's been tired of it for a long time.
"In that case, I won't bother Miss Li, but I still ask Miss Li to accept this bouquet. ”
"Tongtong, since Mr. Liu is so gracious, you can accept the flowers. At that moment, a voice rang in the ears of the two of them.
Wei Xiong stepped forward and gently hugged Li Ruotong, Li Ruotong glanced at Wei Xiong, hesitated for a moment and then took the rose from Liu Luanxiong's hand: "Thank you." ”
"I didn't expect to meet Mr. Liu here, fortunately. ”
Wei Xiong had a smile on his face, but Liu Luanxiong couldn't laugh, in this situation, how could he not know the relationship between Wei Xiong and Li Ruotong.
"Hehe, Mr. Wei is really a good fortune. ”
Liu Luanxiong, who felt that he had lost face, smiled slightly, but he didn't smile, and there was obvious ridicule and even sarcasm in his tone.
"Mr. Liu, isn't he envious?"
Hearing this, Liu Luanxiong's face suddenly changed slightly, and he immediately snorted softly and said, "I still have some things, so I won't bother the two of you." ”
Looking at Liu Luanxiong's back, a cold light flashed in Wei Xiong's eyes.
"What's wrong?"
"That's right, let's go. ”
Wei Xiong smiled and walked towards the car...... After driving out of Songcheng, Wei Xiong turned his head to look at Li Ruotong: "Why didn't you tell me about Liu Luanxiong?"
"I thought he would give up after rejecting him a few times, who knew he was so annoying. ”
"You're not going to be angry, are you?"
Li Ruotong looked at Wei Xiong with some concern, she was not a fool, of course she could see that the atmosphere between Wei Xiong and that Liu Luanxiong just now was very bad.
"Fool, what am I angry about, our family is so beautiful, it's normal for someone to chase after you. ”
"Hmph. ”
Li Ruotong snorted arrogantly, as the so-called woman is the one who pleases herself, and she is praised for her beauty by the man she likes, every woman will be happy.
"Where do you want to eat?"
"You just have an idea. Li Ruotong said casually.
Wei Xiong couldn't help but smile again, many women say 'you can do it' or 'whatever' is not really casual, but contrived.
When I really got to the restaurant, it was either bad or bad.
But Li Ruotong is really casual, and he doesn't have much demand for things like 'eating', or his pursuit of material things is very ordinary.
No wonder I didn't want to participate in Miss Phoenix in the first place.
"Now that the weather is getting colder and colder, and you have lost weight during this time of busy filming, take you to eat wild meat, and make up for you. ”
"Hmm. ”
Li Ruotong smiled sweetly.
For her, it's not about what she eats, it's about who she eats with.
