Hilton Hotel Taipei.

There are four people standing at the door of a certain room like a door god, two on the left and two on the right.

These four "door gods" are Kang Jianfei and Yang Dengkui's bodyguards.

The atmosphere in the room was much more harmonious, Kang Jianfei and Yang Dengkui were talking and laughing with wine glasses, as if they had reunited old friends who had not seen each other for many years.

"Mr. Kang is amazing, "The Story of Truman" has won more than 40 million box office, and it is the box office champion of Taiwanese Chinese films this year," Yang Dengkui gave a thumbs up, "In two days, "The Undefeated East of the Smiling Proud Jianghu" will premiere, and with Miss Lin Qingxia on the horse, it will definitely be able to win."

The sedan chair carried people, Yang Dengkui praised Kang Jianfei vigorously, and Kang Jianfei naturally had to return two good words: "Mr. Yang has been running a TV station in the past two years, and he is also a film investor, and he is also a big fat city."

"Hehe, compared to Mr. Kang, I can only be regarded as a small fight." Yang Dengkui said modestly, but he was quite proud in his heart.

Because of the amnesty granted to the world after the death of President Chiang, Yang Dengkui was able to be released from prison, and within a few years, he already had a TV station and a film and television investment company, and he served as the producer of "City of Sadness", which also won the Venice Golden Lion Award. A person from a gang, who can achieve such achievements in the entertainment industry in just a few years, Yang Dengkui's methods are still superior.

However, there is also a little embarrassment in it, Yang Dengkui was commended by the Taiwan Information Bureau for winning the Golden Lion Award, but he was arrested by the Taiwan police's "Two Cleanups" anti-crime operation a year later. The crime is to serve as the leader of Kaohsiung City of the Tiandao League, operate an underground casino, and so on.

Yang Dengkui, who seems to be proud of the spring breeze, has actually been released from the cell for less than half a year, and he has already "entered the palace three times".

Kang Jianfei put the mouth of the wine bottle on top of Yang Dengkui's cup. The latter was busy protecting the rim of the cup with his hand. I only heard Kang Jianfei say: "I am going to set up a Taiwan branch of Dongshi Company in Taipei, specializing in producing TV dramas and variety entertainment programs. Mr. Yang has a TV station in his hand, so he needs to take care of the business."

"It's easy to say, the programs produced by Mr. Kang's company must be of high standard and excellent quality." Yang Dengkui laughed and agreed. All he has in his hand is a cable TV station, and most of the programs broadcast need to be purchased from outside, as long as the price is reasonable, whoever buys it is the same.

Yang Dengkui's figure is very low. His attitude towards Kang Jianfei can even be described as respectful. But the more low-key and humble Yang Dengkui is, the more Kang Jianfei dares not underestimate him. Because dogs that really bite don't bark.

Ten years ago, Yang Dengkui was arrogant and domineering, and dared to send someone to Hong Kong to forcibly invite Lin Qingxia to make a movie, just like a dragon crossing the river. In order to give Yang Dengkui a horse, Kang Jianfei even had to invite the Xiang brothers to a banquet to support the scene. In the end, it was in the name of New Ngee An that the other party was scared.

At that time, Yang Dengkui had just been released from prison for murder, and no one took it seriously when he was young and vigorous. Now ten years have passed, Yang Dengkui has been imprisoned three times and regained his freedom, and the whole person has become low-key and easy-going, and those who don't know think he is just an ordinary little old man.

But Yang Dengkui is still the boss of the Heavenly Dao League after all, behind the glamorous and low-key, he also runs several nightclubs, underground casinos, and in Kaohsiung, he is the storage of the emperor of the earth.

The current Yang Dengkui is like a sharp knife back to its sheath. At first glance it looks inconspicuous, but if you are not careful, this knife will see blood.

It is a good thing that the collaborators are clever enough to build a cinema line in southern Taiwan. Ordinary people can't control it at all. And now Yang Dengkui already knows how to hide his edge, then he will definitely work hard to clear his name in the future, Kang Jianfei does not have to worry about the theater where the two are working is implicated by Yang Dengkui's community identity.

After three rounds of drinking, Yang Dengkui was already a little dizzy from drinking, and Kang Jianfei pulled it to the cinema: "The box office in the southern region has grown rapidly in the past two years."

"Is that not it?" Yang Dengkui said with a hearty face, "The first 40 years of the government were in the development of the north. Thanks to President Chiang's efforts to build the north-south expressway, the economy of the south gradually caught up. In recent years, the south has been greatly developed. When the people have money, there will naturally be more people watching movies."

Kang Jianfei said: "I heard people tell a joke that a 1,000-seat movie theater in the south can hold 5,000 spectators."

Yang Dengkui's eyes lit up and asked, "Mr. Kang wants to invest in a movie theater in the south?"

Kang Jianfei nodded and said, "I have this idea."

"Good eye!" Yang Dengkui slapped his thigh and praised, "Taiwan's current major merchants are staring at the box office in the north, and they don't even pay attention to the central part of the country, which is really a mouse's eye."

It is not enough to see that among the major cinema operators in Taiwan, there are GMD party-run companies and private companies.

In a party-run company like China Film Group, the chairman is changing like a marquee, and now this has been in office for nearly ten years and is about to leave and retire, will he spend money and energy to build a new theater in the south, and give it to the next one for nothing?

As for the private cinema companies, the reason why they do not invest heavily in cinemas in the south is simple, that is, their own conditions do not allow it. Most of the private theater companies are joint-stock franchised theater companies, and it is even more difficult to throw a large amount of money into the southern region that shareholders are not familiar with.

"I wonder if Boss Yang is interested in cooperating?" Kang Jianfei asked with a smile.

Yang Dengkui smiled and asked, "What kind of cooperation method?"

"I plan to invest NT$500 million to build a cinema in the south." After Kang Jianfei finished speaking, he looked at Yang Dengkui, waiting for his reply.

Yang Dengkui thought for a long time and said, "I invested 100 million Taiwan dollars and asked for 35 shares."

Kang Jianfei shook his head: "It's too much."

Yang Dengkui said: "Mr. Kang, you are here. [,！ After all, in the eyes of the Taiwan authorities, there is a well-known leftist, and I need to take care of the government, and I will settle the affairs on the road, which can be regarded as my intangible investment."

Kang Jianfei does not plan to regress: "But if the theater chain wants to make a profit, my film source is very important."

The two insisted on their own words, bargained like buying cabbage, and finally agreed on the distribution of shares, and Yang Dengkui invested 150 million Taiwan dollars and could own 30 shares of the company.

In addition, Kang Jianfei also has some theaters that have joined the Chinese cinema line. If these theaters are to leave China Film and merge into a new company in the future, then the equity will be renegotiated and distributed.

Speaking of which, Kang Jianfei's timing to cooperate with Yang Dengkui is just right, if it is replaced by Yang Dengkui when the spring breeze was proud last year. Today's cooperation intention is difficult to reach, this guy will definitely open his mouth.

Now it's different, since Yang Dengkui was imprisoned at the end of last year, his TV station, film distribution company and film investment company have suffered a big setback, most of the capable employees have left, only Xu Xu is waiting to die and still rely on not getting paid, and his cable TV station has even stopped broadcasting for a time.

Exactly half a year after Yang Dengkui was released from prison. His company has only imported and distributed two Hong Kong films, and the number of Hong Kong films invested in Zuò is even less than one.

In another time and space. The reason why Yang Dengkui's Judeng company was able to make a comeback was that he happened to encounter Li Lianjie's agent who was shot and killed, and Li Lianjie himself was devastated because of his involvement. At this time, Yang Dengkui extended a helping hand and paid to help Li Lianjie set up Zhengdong Film. has successively made blockbuster movies such as "Kung Fu Emperor Fang Shiyu" and "New Shaolin Five Ancestors".

Yang Dengkui's move not only saved Li Lianjie, who fell to the bottom of his career, but also saved his own Judeng company. And in this time and space, Li Lianjie filmed well in DreamWorks, so naturally it was not Yang Dengkui's turn to intervene, and he could cooperate with Kang Jianfei to obtain the source of DreamWorks, which was what he dreamed of.

Kang Jianfei needs Yang Dengkui's connections in Taiwan and the ability to settle troubles, while Yang Dengkui needs Kang Jianfei's Hong Kong film source.

The two of them got down to business. The rest of the time is all small talk.

Kang Jianfei inadvertently remembered Xie Jinyan in the SHE group, and it seemed that her father, Brother Zhu, was signed under Yang Dengkui.

Kang Jianfei said: "I heard that Boss Yang has a very powerful host named Zhu Geliang?"

Yang Dengkui was puzzled and said tentatively: "There is such a person. Mr. Kang is interested in him?"

Kang Jianfei did not hide it, and said: "That's the case, I came to Taipei this time and created a girl singing group with my own hands. One of the members is named Xie Jinyan, and her father is Zhu Ge Liang."

"Oh, you mean that little girl in middle school." Yang Dengkui actually had an impression of Xie Jinyan, he said. Last year, I invested in a movie called "The Young Master as a Soldier", which starred Zhu Geliang, and his daughter Xie Jinyan also played a role in the movie."

Kang Jianfei said: "I heard that Brother Pig Liang is a good gambler?"

"If you don't say it's okay, I will have a headache when you talk about it, and this person will not be saved if he gambles any longer." Yang Dengkui shook his head again and again.

Ten years ago, Yang Dengkui was extremely domineering, and he had Zhu Geliang under his hands, and he couldn't wait for a group of local artists. At that time, Xu Bu had already developed into Taiwan's number one comedy star, and Yang Dengkui was afraid that Xu Bu would not be able to get out of his grasp, so he did not hesitate to lure gambling and drugs. The product came to control it, and finally led to die of torture.

The reason why Zhu Geliang is addicted to gambling is also to Yang Dengkui. Yang Dengkui used means to lure Zhu Ge Liang to gamble in his underground casino, and Zhu Ge Liang, who owed a huge amount of gambling money, could naturally only succumb to him.

However, after being released from prison for the second time, Yang Dengkui began to restrain himself, and treated his artists a lot more leniently, and rarely used shady means.

But Brother Zhu Liang doesn't need to be lured by others at all, he has been addicted to gambling for ten years, and all the money he makes is thrown in the casino, and he owes a lot of debts outside.

Who would have imagined that a big star lives by borrowing money, and the daily expenses of the family need to be borne by his wife's hard work.

Yang Dengkui used to do everything possible to lure Brother Zhu Liang to gamble, but now he has a headache about it. Because Brother Zhu Liang is not only popular in Taiwan, but also in the mainland. Jian and the Singapore generation are also red and purple, and just selling video tapes can make a lot of money for Yang Dengkui.

But because of his addiction to gambling, Zhu Geliang's acting status has become more and more depressed in the past two years of creation, and even sometimes he forgot to work after gambling money, Yang Dengkui sent people to the casino several times to arrest Zhu Geliang back to the set for filming.

After Yang Dengkui finished talking about Brother Zhu's situation, he persuaded: "Mr. Kang, don't provoke that guy, no matter how much money you borrow from him, you can lose, I don't bother to care about it now."

Xie Jinyan, the future queen of Taiwanese electronic music, is also a tragedy for a gambler father.

"Hehe, I'm just asking." Kang Jianfei grinned, revealing a few of Bai Sensen's teeth. (To be continued)
