Andy Lau and Stephen Chow are both from Hong Kong Wireless.

Stephen Chow had not become popular back then, and when he played the soldier who was killed by the white bone claw of Jiuyin in 83 "Shooting the Condor", Andy Lau had gradually become popular, and filmed classic dramas such as "Demon Paradise" with popular actress Zhao Yazhi.

It can be said that Andy Lau became famous five or six years earlier than Stephen Chow. Stephen Chow did not emerge in wireless until his partner Wu Mengda filmed "He Comes from Jianghu", and a "Gambling Saint" in 90 established his popularity in the nonsensical film industry. It's been almost two years now, Stephen Chow has shot more than a dozen movies, basically more than 10 million in each play, and is called "Zhou 10 million" by filmmakers!

Stephen Chow became famous and began to film non-stop, with a high salary all the way, and there was almost no time to rest. Some people say that during this golden period, Stephen Chow even spent the time of and sleep on filming.

is such a busy person, when he received a call from Andy Lau, he couldn't help but reply that he would take time to meet Chen Xuanting, the invisible boss of Tianmu.

Li Palace Theatre, Hong Kong.

At this time, three dramas are being staged, one of which is last year's old drama, "The Saint of Gambling" starring Stephen Chow.

Anyone who likes Hong Kong movies has basically seen this drama, so not many people buy tickets at the window.

Just as the conductor was sleepy and wanted to yawn, a voice said, "Give me a ticket, "The Saint of Gambling"!" ”

The conductor took the money and tore a ticket for him.

Chen Xuanting came to the entrance with the ticket, and his own staff took a flashlight to help him find a seat.

Chen Xuanting sat down in the dark. On the big screen, Stephen Chow used a special function to help the third uncle Wu Mengda win money at the gambling table.

Not many people watched, but they all laughed softly.

Only Chen Xuanting seemed very calm.

"Don't you think this scene is funny?" Suddenly, a voice next to him said.

Chen Xuanting looked through the faint light reflected from the screen, but saw Stephen Chow himself wearing a sun hat and looking at him.

"Even if it's funny, you can't laugh if you watch it too much." Chen Xuanting said indifferently.

"Hmm." Stephen Chow paused, "You don't mind if I invite you to meet here, do you?" ”

"It doesn't matter, it's a conversation anyway," Chen Xuanting shrugged, "and it's very special, a bit of a 007 feeling." ”

"Hehe, no way, now the paparazzi are chasing me too hard, and only in this way can I relax a little." Stephen Chow sighed. "Perhaps, this is the trouble of being a celebrity!"

Chen Xuanting smiled and was speechless.

Stephen Chow said again: "I heard that you are the invisible boss of Tianmu, and now you are still the red director of wireless?" ”

"Sort of, men always have to struggle!"

"You are a very special person----- "Stephen Chow said suddenly, "Many people are squeezing their scalps to become famous, but you are hiding behind your back...... Which makes me curious? ”

"Hehe, didn't you just say that being a celebrity is very troublesome! I hate those paparazzi more than you do! Chen Xuanting smiled.

"It seems that I asked this question in vain!"

"Then let me ask you instead, may I ask Mr. Stephen Chow, are you willing to deign to come to Tianmu to film?"

"Hehe, pretty straightforward!"

"Time is money, isn't it?"

"That's my motto."

"Mine too."

"It looks like we've finally found a glimmer of common ground."

"Will Mr. Zhou promise me because of this common denominator?" Chen Xuanting looked at him with a smile.

Stephen Chow touched his chin, "This...... What price do you offer? ”

even asked directly about the salary, which is worthy of the "money first" star master in his previous life.

"Tianmu has Andy Lau's share, and you are Andy's friend, does it hurt to talk about money?" Chen Xuanting quipped.

"Hehe, although talking about money hurts my feelings, but not talking about money hurts myself," Stephen Chow said with a rare humor, "And I am exactly the kind of person who feels super sorry for myself!" ”

"Well said! What do you think of five million? Chen Xuanting asked.

Stephen Chow smiled, "Do you know that now many film companies give me six million, I won't do it!" The meaning is obvious, five million, is too little, he Stephen Chow doesn't look at it at all.

"Six million? Hehe, it's really fascinating, but the question is can you take it? If you can't, don't say give you six million, even ten million is for nothing! Chen Xuanting directly retorted.

"What do you mean by that?" Stephen Chow was a little angry.

"You know best what that means." Chen Xuanting said tepidly, "So you have to know how to be a --- person."

"Five million, that's a little less!" Stephen Chow suppressed his emotions and his tone was a little loose.

Chen Xuanting smiled slightly and said, "Less? As far as I know, you only have four million to shoot a movie at Yongsheng! Staring at him.

Stephen Chow's old face turned red and said: "I can't help it, who let me sign a contract with others for a few plays----" His eyes were dry, and he stopped talking.

Chen Xuanting is very tight, although Stephen Chow is famous enough and popular enough, but in the eyes of the Xiang brothers, he is just a money-making machine, at best, he is a little star with a head and a face, and it is very simple to control him, after all, the entertainment industry is not easy to mix, if you don't rely on some community forces, it will be over sooner or later.

In his previous life, Stephen Chow wanted to immigrate to Canada, but he was not allowed, because he was too close to Hong Kong's underworld ~ society, and it is said that he and Chow Yun-fat are both members of the community of New Ngee An.

As for whether Stephen Chow has joined New Ngee An now, Chen Xuanting doesn't know, but Chen Xuanting knows that Stephen Chow will never be able to escape from the palms of the Xiang brothers.

"Mr. Zhou, five million may be really small, but in my opinion, a different environment is better than anything else!" Chen Xuanting's words were very subtle, but they made Stephen Chow's heart active. Yes, I've been working at Yongsheng to help others, isn't it a little too stupid, I can take over other people's .......

"What's more, this time you will co-star with Andy Lau, and you can take over the filming under the banner of friendship first, I think even if others don't want to, they have nothing to say!" Chen Xuanting directly pointed out the advantages of Stephen Chow in taking over the filming of this drama.

Stephen Chow's heart loosened a little more, but he would not be persuaded by Chen Xuanting so easily, his eyes returned to the big screen, and said: "Let's talk about this later, let's watch a movie!" ”

The corners of Chen Xuanting's mouth curled: "I've watched this play, I'll talk about it here today, if Mr. Zhou has any ideas, you can contact me at any time!" ”

In Stephen Chow's surprise, Chen Xuanting stood up proudly and said, "Missing!" "Turn and leave.

Damn, this is also a begging person? It's too much of a drag! Stephen Chow couldn't help but be depressed.

The next day, Stephen Chow was filming Yongsheng's movie "Shanghai Beach Gambling Saint" in Repulse Bay, Hong Kong. Playing with him are the well-known Hong Kong actor Lu Liangwei and the mainland actress Gong Li.

At this time, Chen Xuanting came.

The first person to see Chen Xuanting was his old friend Wu Mengda. Wu Mengda is now the golden supporting role of Stephen Chow, and his salary has also risen a little. Despite this, because Wu Mengda was divorced, he needed to pay a lot of alimony every month, so that he was stretched. I had to stay up all night, hoping to rely on this to make ends meet.

Seeing Chen Xuanting coming over with a basket of fruits, Wu Mengda, who was leaning against the wall to smoke and rest, stepped forward with a smile and said, "It's rare, Ah Ting, why are you here?" This blue fruit wasn't given to me, was it? You're too polite! As he spoke, he reached out for the fruit.

Chen Xuanting: "I'm sorry, this is for Stephen Chow!" ”

Wu Mengda was stunned: "To Ah Xing?" No way! You're too stingy, aren't you? It's not just that I'm here to visit the class, and I don't even send blue fruits! ”

Chen Xuanting: "You won't eat the fruit that I gave you, so I might as well invite you to drink instead!" ”

"Hehe, what you said, it's okay to drink, but you have to go to the rich!" Wu Mengda chuckled.

"Why not? I'm afraid that your old man's body can't be satisfied! Chen Xuanting said with a smile.

"Damn, you're underestimating me! I, Wu Mengda, have cultivated the incorruptible body of King Kong, don't say that I am a rich man, even if I go to Ginza, there is no problem! Wu Mengda patted his chest and blew the water.

Chen Xuanting: "Don't brag yet, Nuo, help give this fruit to Ah Xing, just say I'm coming to him!" ”

Wu Mengda shook his head and said: "I want to see Ah Xing as soon as I have a blue fruit, I'm afraid it's a little difficult to ......" Wu Mengda thought that Chen Xuanting was an ordinary star-chaser, but he didn't know the special identity of Chen Xuanting, the boss behind the scenes.

"It doesn't matter if he sees me or not, as long as you get the word in!" Chen Xuanting said firmly.

"Okay, I'll say something nice for you, maybe he'll take a picture with you!" Wu Mengda muttered, took the fruit and went to the set.

Inside the lounge. Stephen Chow was reciting his lines, but saw Wu Mengda come in and said, "Here you go, Ah Xing, this fruit is for you!" Saying that, Wu Mengda habitually took out an apple from the fruit basket and ate it in one bite. It seems that Ping said that Wu Mengda did not eliminate these "gifts" for Stephen Chow.

Seeing his eating appearance, Stephen Chow frowned and said, "You don't wash it either?" Very unhygienic! ”

"It's okay, if you don't eat cleanly, you won't get sick!" Wu Mengda pursed his lips and said, "Hey, I said, you don't ask me who gave it to you?" ”

Stephen Chow didn't raise his head and said, "What's there to guess, aren't those fans yet?!" ”

"Wrong!" Wu Mengda spit out the apple core and said, "It's the director Chen Xuanting who has become popular recently!" ”

Stephen Chow raised his head, "You said it was him?!" ”

Wu Mengda was stunned: "What, do you know him?" ”

"Well, he looked for me yesterday!"

"What are you looking for? Filming a TV series? Wu Mengda joked.

"No, make a movie! Shoot the scene of the canopy with Andy Lau! ”

"Skycanopy? Andy lau? What does that have to do with Chen Xuanting? Wu Mengda was surprised.

Stephen Chow glanced at him: "Don't you know?" This Chen Xuanting is the mysterious shareholder of Tianmu! ”

"Smack!" Wu Mengda almost choked to death with an apple. The apple in his hand fell to the ground.

Stephen Chow: "What's wrong with you?" ”

"Oh nothing?" Wu Mengda said in his mouth, but he was thinking in his heart, "This Ah Ting is really not a friend enough, and he won't tell me such a big secret!" ”

"Then you don't see him now?"

"It's good to see you." Stephen Chow was curious why Chen Xuanting came again.

"Then I'll go out and invite him in." Wu Mengda walked out.

Looking at Wu Mengda's back, Stephen Chow didn't have the heart to read the script anymore, he really didn't understand, what chips did Chen Xuanting have to convince himself, he was looking forward to it!
