The place where Wang Zijun and a few people drank was a new private club opened by Manna in Lan Kwai Fong.

In the past, Wang Zijun only mentioned it once when he visited Manna's private salon, and this smart woman knew everything well, and opened a new private club upstairs last year.

The club implements a membership system, and only by paying 100,000 Hong Kong dollars to become a junior VIP member can you have the qualification to go in and consume.

At the beginning, Xiang Huaqiang still didn't understand, isn't it better to do business with more customers? Why do you have to set up thresholds to keep a whole bunch of ordinary guests out?

Not only did Xiang Huaqiang not understand, but the other bosses of Lan Kwai Fong were also waiting to see Manna's joke, but they were soon dumbfounded.

On the day of the opening of the club, Manna invited some of Hong Kong's top rich people in the name of Wang Zijun and Xiang Huaqiang, and parked a luxury car downstairs.

Then, Manna generously gave these rich people a gold membership card "worth" tens of millions - gold-inlayed, but the cost is actually no more than 10,000 yuan.

Most of these rich people are face-saving people, how can they ask for Manna's things for nothing? In addition, the environment in the club is really good, so these rich people often come here to talk about business and chat in the future.

The name of Manna's private club gradually spread, and I heard that even the Governor of Hong Kong had visited twice with his friends, and he was given a diamond membership card.

For the wealthy, the clubhouse is just a place for casual gatherings and business, but for those small businessmen who can't afford it, having a membership card in Manna's private club is something to brag about.

Now there is a popular joke in some small circles in Hong Kong, saying that if you want to soak those material beauties, it is better to give a car than to give a membership card of Manna Club.

For a broken card, the cheapest one is 100,000 Hong Kong dollars, and in just one year, Manna earned more than 20 million yuan just by selling cards.

Not only that, but since all the dignitaries who come here are high-ranking officials, the rich interpersonal resources in Manna's hands have become another invisible wealth that is difficult to estimate.

Up to now, even Hehetu does not send people to the club to collect protection fees, and several people from Hehetu are also frequent visitors to the club.

And Xiang Huaqiang, through Manna, also went online with Hehetu, who had not had much contact, and the two clubs of New Ngee An and Hehetu began to officially cooperate.

Manna's private club is simply black and white business, and ordinary gangs will make trouble when others come to the door, even if you come in to consume, you are not qualified.

Wang Zijun has never been here yet, and the diamond membership card that Manna gave before was also thrown on the stage. Wan didn't bring it, and when I wanted to go in, I was stopped by the security guard at the door.

"I'm sorry, sir, please show your membership card." The doorman said very respectfully, but his eyes were fixed on Wang Zijun and Lin Bowen and the others behind him.

Wang Zijun took off his sunglasses and said with a smile: "Can I go in?" ”

The lights in the aisle at the door were a little dim, Wang Zijun took off his sunglasses, and the two doormen recognized Wang Zijun.

The doorman didn't seem to know the relationship between Wang Zijun and Manna, and one of them wanted to stop him, but the other directly smiled and bowed: "A few gentlemen, please come in!" ”

Wang Zijun didn't know if the people in Mecca were frequent visitors here, so he said to the doorman: "I have a few friends who are coming later, please let me go." ”

"Mr. Wang is so polite, your friend is our honored guest." The doorman smiled and pushed the door open.

Wang Zijun walked in first, and Lin Bowen followed behind him, giving each of the two guards a piece of Hong Kong paper.

When the group of them all entered, the doorman who wanted to stop Wang Zijun looked at the 100 yuan in his hand, and then looked at the 1,000 yuan bill in his colleague's hand, and said indignantly: "Didn't the boss say that there is no membership card, and Tianwang Laozi will not be allowed to enter when he comes?" Why did this Wang Zijun go in! ”

"Idiot!" The doorman who received a tip of 1,000 yuan said, "Who is Wang Zijun?" The boss saw that it was too late to send gold cards and diamond cards, and you actually stopped him? What to watch? Don't hurry up and report to the manager that Wang Zijun is here! ”

……

Not long after Wang Zijun entered, a manager surnamed Huang of the club quickly caught up and said to Wang Zijun with a smile on his face: "Oh, Mr. Wang is really a rare guest, I have prepared a Tianzihao box for you." ”

"Isn't Sister Xue here?" Wang Zijun asked casually.

"Sister Xue?" Manager Huang was stunned for a moment and asked, "Are you asking Boss Manna?" ”

"Nonsense, besides her, there is a Xue sister here." Wang Zijun said.

Manager Huang smiled: "It turns out that Mr. Wang, you and Boss Manna are good friends. It's really unfortunate that Boss Manna and Mr. Xiang went on a trip to the Maldives. ”

"Xiang Huaqiang?" Wang Zijun said in surprise.

Manager Huang nodded and said, "It's Mr. Xiang." ”

Exam, these two won't really hook up together, right?

Not long after Wang Zijun entered the Tianzi box, Mecca, Shi Tian, Huang Baiming and Teddy Robin came, followed by Zhuge Mao.

Mecca and the others didn't expect Wang Zijun to invite Zhuge Mao, and their faces instantly became gloomy.

"Come on, let's do this cup first, everyone is a friend, why bother about a little thing." Wang Zijun personally opened the bottle and poured wine, and he didn't allow a few people not to drink.

Wine is a good thing, it can cover shame, it can be emboldened, and it can be compromised.

After drinking a meal, the two gangs agreed to reconcile for the sake of Wang Zijun's face.

Now that the new art city has become bigger, it is the second largest film company in Hong Kong after Golden Harvest, and Mecca and others, as shareholders, naturally cannot be stupid enough to really break up and leave.

They have been "on strike" for half a year, just to give Zhuge Mao a little color.

I didn't expect Zhuge Mao to simply turn a blind eye, you want to "strike", right? It's okay, the new art city is still running without a few of you.

Due to the pressure of a few people in Mecca, all the blockbuster films in the previous years of New Arts City were shot by a few of them, and the company's rookie directors and screenwriters couldn't get ahead. Now that there are several "strikes", the powerful "newcomers" below are happy, under the nod of Zhuge Mao, they all work hard and make the new art city more prosperous than when there were Mecca, and in the first half of the year, several small cost works with a local box office close to 10 million Hong Kong dollars were released.

Although these movies are not as famous as the "Best Partner" series, and they are not as profitable, as the owner of a film company, Wang Zijun would like to see more such works. After all, a regular film company can't be supported by just a few blockbusters.

A few people in Mecca thought that after they left, the new art city would not be able to play, but they didn't expect it to be self-defeating, and they couldn't get off the stage for a while.

Zhuge Mao's house is also poisonous, and it took half a year to dry these people, which made several people a little impatient, so they borrowed Wang Zijun's hand to give them the steps, and their grasp of people's hearts and time is extremely accurate.

Since Wang Zijun came out to interfere, if they continue to make trouble, they will only be bored in Mecca.

Under the persuasion of Wang Zijun, Mecca continued to be the director of his production department, and got the decision-making power of the annual shooting plan of the new art city as he wished, while Shi Tian and Huang Baiming were in charge of the company's artist department and screenwriting department respectively, and Teddy Robin was still the director of the music department.

It can be said that the positions of several people have hardly changed, but everyone understands that the battle between Mecca and Zhuge Mao was won.

Because the biggest contradiction between the two sides is that Mecca, by virtue of their status as shareholders and heroes, bypassed the rules of the company at some point and changed the existing plan without authorization. To put it bluntly, everything is planned, and suddenly my brain is hot, and I think it is better to do it this way, and then I change the established plan. This is easy to say when it comes to the production of a single film, but when it comes to the company's overall development plan, Zhuge Mao can't tolerate it - Mecca has committed this taboo by embezzling the budget of other films to increase the investment in "Best Partner".

Mecca and others have their own reasons for thinking that they are trying to make the film better; Zhuge Mao also has a reason to think that if they are so unruly and messing around, the company will finish playing sooner or later.

Now Wang Zijun has stood up and given Mecca and others certain decision-making power, but they are also limited to these departments of the company, and others that do not fall within their purview are not allowed to reach out. Wang Zijun has already said cruel words in the short board meeting, whoever wants to stretch out his hand again, he will play the real thing.

Mecca, Shi Tian and Huang Baiming were very depressed after drinking this meal, and after being the boss who could do whatever he wanted for a while, he suddenly had to obey the rules, which was like a wild horse that was used to being happy and was suddenly put on a chewing cage.

Wang Zijun is also helpless, everyone has their own thoughts. I don't know that there is a mess in Xinyi City, Taiwan. On the side of Bay Rolling Stone Records, Wu Chuchu and Peng Guohua, the two major cadres who joined the company when it was founded, also fell out with Duan Zhongyi two months ago and resigned directly.

Wang Zijun was filming at the time, and it was not good to leave the crew and come back in person, so he could only ask Lin Qing to come forward to dissuade him. It's a pity that it's useless at all, Wu and Peng and the Duan brothers have great differences in both music concepts and business concepts, and now they have turned against each other from discord at work, and they can't work together anymore.

Wang Zijun had no choice but to ask Lin Qingxia to contribute a sum of money on the phone to fund Wu and Peng to set up another UFO record company. Now, the UFO record company, which has just been established for less than a month, has two singers, one is the newcomer Zhou Huajian, who was poached from Jinsheng Records; The other is the female singer Jiang Yuelin who was dug from Xinsheng Records, and has just changed her stage name to Han Baoyi.

In addition to these two future greats, UFO Records also took a music producer Li Zongsheng from Rolling Stone Records............

"Mr. Wang, Boss Manna's phone number." When the wine was changed, Manager Huang took the opportunity to come in and say.

"Looking for my number?" Wang Zijun was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, this is Manager Huang who urgently told Manna that he came to the club, so he nodded and said, "Wait a minute." ”

The wine has been almost drunk, and the problem has been solved for the time being. Mecca suffered a dark loss and lost face, and when she left, she staggered so badly that she couldn't even recognize people, and she didn't know if she was pretending to be drunk.

Wang Zijun asked Lin Bowen to send these drunks down, and he went to the general manager's office of the club to pick up Manna's call back.

"Hey, Sister Xue, you and Brother Qiang went to the Maldives for their honeymoon." As soon as Wang Zijun got on the phone, he joked, "When will you get married?" I'm coming for a drink. ”

"Little bastard, I'll tease your sister as soon as I come." Manna laughed and scolded, listening to that voice was a tacit acquiescence.

The two didn't talk anything, just talked nonsense, and then chatted about the business conditions of several stores in Lan Kwai Fong and hung up.

Out of the manager's office, Wang Zijun was about to go downstairs to leave, and a woman walked up to him, and when she saw Wang Zijun, she was surprised and said, "Mr. Wang, you are also here?" ”

That woman is Huang Zhan's Ma Zilin Yanni, Wang Zijun and her have had several contacts because of Huang Zhan's relationship.

Wang Zijun smiled: "Yes, what a coincidence. Is Brother Huang also there? ”

"No, I'm here with a few friends." Lin Yanni said.

"Then don't bother." Wang Zijun didn't bother to ask her what kind of friend she was, and she was not a small person who could gather in this golden nest.

"Goodbye." Lin Yanni didn't have anything to say to Wang Zijun.

As soon as the two of them misturned, a young woman in her twenties ran up, stared at Wang Zijun for a while and said, "Are you really Wang Zijun?" ”

Wang Zijun smiled: "Wang Zijun still has a fake? ”

"Why not, I've seen two people who look the same in the parody show." The woman said and asked Lin Yanni, "Sister Lin, is he really Wang Zijun?" Didn't you come to perform at the clubhouse? ”

Lin Yanni didn't take the woman's words, but introduced to Wang Zijun: "This is Miss He Chaoqiong, the beloved daughter of Mr. He, the Macau gambling king." ”

"He Chaoqiong?" When Wang Zijun heard this, he looked at it seriously.

He Chaoqiong was dressed in leather at this time, with a bunch of shiny metal jewelry hanging on the jacket outside, her hair was slightly curly, tied crookedly to the side, and there were a few studs on her earlobes.

Where is this like a rich daughter? It's a little sister.

In another time and space, he only saw He Chaoqiong once, when He Chaoqiong was already in her fifties, she was an old lady with a net worth of hundreds of millions, noble, rich and kind and polite, and the little sister in front of her was like two people.

He Chaoqiong was looked at by Wang Zijun without scruples for a while, and couldn't help but say: "What do you look at, do you think Miss Ben is so beautiful that you can't take your eyes off?" ”

"Hehe, you're really welcome." Wang Zijun said with a smile, and said in his heart that this woman was really beautiful when she was young, and she deserved to be the daughter of the gambling king.

"Tell me the truth, what am I polite?" He Chaoqiong waved his hand impatiently, "Alas, don't talk about this, since you meet, come in and have two drinks." ”

He Chaoqiong was really polite, and pushed Wang Zijun to a room, which made Lin Yanni in the back smile bitterly.

He Chaoqiong was in the Xuanzi room, and as soon as Wang Zijun appeared, several people in the room stood up in surprise.

"Wang Zijun?"

"Master Jun?"

"Hello Mr. Wang."

“……”

Among the few people inside, Wang Zijun recognized the singer Chen Baixiang and the lyricist Lin Mincong, and the others were not impressed.

Chen Baixiang asked with some excitement: "Miss He, why is Mr. Wang here?" ”

He Chaoqiong said unashamedly: "Didn't you say that Wang Zijun is your idol? Seeing that Ah Xiang is in a bad mood, I will help you bring him. How's that, Miss Ben is thoughtful, right? ”

Wang Zijun has a black line on her forehead, how could this woman be so outrageous when she was young?

What Wang Zijun didn't know was that Miss He, who was in charge of most of the gambling king's properties, was a sister when she was a girl, and even played with others and had a car. In the past few years, he has gone to the Hong Kong entertainment industry to play, and has starred in several TV series on TVB, and wants to sing and release records after acting, and he is good friends with Chen Baixiang, Lin Yanni, Zhou Yunfa and others.

It wasn't until she was about to get married that she was pulled back by the gambling king's father and instantly turned into a gentle lady.

Now that he came in, Wang Zijun couldn't turn around and leave, and said to Chen Baixiang and the others: "Everyone is free, I'll sit down for a while and leave." ”

Chen Baixiang is now considered a top figure in the Hong Kong music scene, but everything has not gone well this year, and he has recently had conflicts with Warner Records, and there are even rumors of his suicide. Although He Chaoqiong had a wild time, she was still very humane, so she pulled Lin Yanni and others out to accompany Chen Baixiang to drink.

As soon as Wang Zijun came in, he instantly became the protagonist. Several people who originally accompanied Chen Baixiang to drink came over to get close to Wang Zijun, and the scene was particularly enthusiastic.

Even He Chaoqiong asked expectantly: "Master Jun, your new film "Three Heroines of the East" is really exciting!" I heard that there is going to be a second film, what do you think of my conditions? Why don't you give me a role too? As long as you let me act, I will let Lisboa Casino open to the crew for free, and go in and shoot casually. ”

"You?" Wang Zijun looked at her and pouted.

"You don't believe it? Then I'll show you live. He Chaoqiong felt that she was being underestimated, rubbed her face and fell on Wang Zijun, crying, "My dear, don't go, how can you leave me and the child alone......"

He Chaoqiong is unexpectedly still an acting school, but Wang Zijun obviously doesn't care about her acting skills, and nervously reminded: "Hey, don't wipe your snot on my clothes......"

"Then it's decided, what do you want me to play, and I'll be on call when the time comes." He Chaoqiong stopped and said with a smile.

Wang Zijun said speechlessly: "Miss He, it seems that I didn't promise you anything, right?" ”

"Hehehe, everyone drink, drink!" He Chaoqiong filled Wang Zijun with a cup and stuffed it directly into Wang Zijun's hand.

Wang Zijun felt that he didn't need to be serious with a child, so he smiled at Lin Yanni, and then got up and left.

"Hey, don't go!" He Chaoqiong shouted twice, and then said to a few friends in the room, "I'll go first, see you another day!" ”

As soon as Wang Zijun was about to enter the elevator, He Chaoqiong chased after him and hurriedly rushed into the elevator, but was stopped by Wang Zijun's bodyguards.

"Let her in." Wang Zijun said.

The bodyguards let him go, and He Chaoqiong said to Wang Zijun: "Hey, do you like drag racing?" I'll take you to play two games. ”

"Not interested." Wang Zijun said.

He Chaoqiong said: "I heard that you used to be a double-flower red stick of the Bamboo Union Gang, and you must be very good at drag racing." ”

Wang Zijun said: "Miss, there is no time for drag racing in the mixed club. ”

"Oh, that's right," He Chaoqiong asked again, "Then will you shoot?" Or you teach me how to shoot another day. ”

Wang Zijun sighed and said, "Miss He, we don't seem to know each other." ”

"Don't be so impersonal. I'm a fan of yours, and I've seen all your movies. He Chaoqiong said.

Wang Zijun helplessly covered his forehead with his hand.
