Chapter 348: The Spring Breeze is Triumphant
"Is Mr. Zou here?"
Li Xuan, as the main figure of the entire celebration banquet, can be said to have come a little late. However, despite this, the number of reporters outside the door shows no signs of decreasing. So Li Xuan greeted the reporters with a smile at this time, and asked Xian Qilu who greeted him about the situation in the banquet hall.
"It's not there yet." Xian Qilu replied succinctly.
"Hehe, this big boss Zou ......" Li Xuan smiled boringly, shook his head and said, "If you go to the away side to attend the banquet, you will be late." ”
"Well, maybe Mr. Zou has something to delay."
Li Xuan waved his hand and said, "Okay, no matter about him, we and Jiahe are competitors now, and I don't know who will kill him when the time comes." ”
Before he finished speaking, Li Xuan's voice became smaller, Shao Yifu's words of 'shop around' still echoed in his ears, and an inexplicable uneasiness crept into Li Xuan's heart.
Perhaps, in the end, this deer will be robbed by someone who no one expected?
Li Xuan suddenly felt a thrill in his brain when he thought of this, as if he understood something, but when he thought about it carefully, he didn't find anything. Fortunately, he wants to take the Shaw Brothers' theater just to increase his control over the theater chain, which is not an essential thing, even if he is really cut off in the future, it is estimated that it will be a little depressed.
Jiahe's Zou Wenhuai also had the same idea as Li Xuan, so the two of them were not satisfied with Shao Yifu's conditions now, and thought about slowly grinding it down and dragging it out until Shao Yifu lowered his conditions before talking.
It's just that this Shaw Brothers can endure for so long?
"Mr. Zou is here!"
As soon as Li Xuan's front feet stepped into the gate of Fu Linmen, there was a chaotic commotion behind him. However, when he heard that Zou Wenhuai was coming, Li Xuan had to stop with Xian Qilu, and the two turned around and went out together.
Seeing Zou Wenhuai's white Rolls-Royce slowly parked in front of the Fulin Gate Building, Li Xuan couldn't help muttering in his heart, this Zou Wenhuai came at such an accurate time. He wouldn't have been waiting around for him to arrive first, would he?
"Uncle Huai, welcome!" Li Xuan watched Zou Wenhuai get out of the car, and hurriedly stepped forward to say hello.
"Haha. Ah Xuan, your celebration banquet this time is not small. Look at it, look at ......" Zou Wenhuai was not very polite, pointed to the circle of reporters around him and laughed: "Look at so many reporters, tomorrow all the newspapers in Hong Kong are probably your news." ”
Li Xuan waved his hand at the gate of Fulinmen, and said with a smile while leading the way: "This is also everyone's lift, just to give face, it can't be taken seriously." ”
"You kid. Now I'm pretending to be humble. Zou Wenhuai raised his feet and stepped into the door, and suddenly asked, "By the way, didn't you negotiate with Sir Shao that day?" ”
Nonsense! It's been negotiated, and now Shaw is still there? Li Xuan cursed in his heart. However, he smiled and said: "No, I think Sir Shao prefers Uncle Huai's plan." ”
"Uh......, haha!"
Zou Wenhuai was slightly stunned when he heard Li Xuan's words, and then laughed out loud in embarrassment. However, Li Xuan didn't want to let him go so easily, so he pretended to hesitate and said, "Uncle Huai." Do you know that apart from the two of us who are interested in Shaw Brothers, who else wants to complete the theater? ”
As soon as Li Xuan's words came out, Zou Wenhuai was stunned for a while, this guy frowned and was silent for a few seconds, and then asked Li Xuan: "Why, you received the news and someone is still fighting the idea of the Shaw Brothers?" ”
"Uh, no. No, Uncle Huai didn't know that the sale of the theater was personally handled by Sir Shao, where did others get the news so well. It's just ......" Li Xuan shrugged his shoulders and said, "But the last time I talked to Sir Shao, I always felt that Sir Shao had something to say, and it seemed that there were more than two of us who were playing the idea of Shaw Brothers Cinemas." ”
Zou Wenhuai obviously also attached more importance to Li Xuan's news, and after thinking about it, he sighed: "There are a lot of strange things when things come to the end, this thing has to be prevented, so let's let my subordinates pay more attention after I go back, Ah Xuan, you are also on guard, when the time comes, we will communicate with each other, and this benefit will naturally not be robbed by outsiders." ”
"Haha, that's nature." Li Xuan nodded pretendly, stretched out his hand and pointed to the stairs and said, "Since the foreign affairs are all over, then Uncle Huai, please!" ”
"Please ——!"
This acquisition of Shaw Brothers Cinemas is halfway to a mysterious Cheng Biting Gold, Li Xuan naturally will not turn a blind eye, as for whether he will communicate with Jiahe at that time, it will be up to the benevolent to see the wise and the wise, of course, what to do to be good to himself.
"First of all, on behalf of the whole company and the crew of "The Saint of Gambling", thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to participate in the celebration banquet of "The Saint of Gambling", thank you!" Li Xuan raised his glass and said loudly: "Moreover, on behalf of me personally, I would like to thank every member of the crew of "The Saint of Gambling", it is your efforts in exchange for the record-breaking box office of "The Saint of Gambling" of 30 million, thank you, thank you, I will toast you first!" ”
As soon as these words fell, Li Xuan raised his head and drank the glass of wine in his hand in a cheer that should be applauded.
The first half of the celebration banquet does not need to be said, it is all a thank you drama of thanking the crew and thanking everyone and the party. After this Chase thank-you play, it is time for free time when the true usefulness of the banquet is truly revealed.
But this time, without waiting for Li Xuan to run to toast others, the invited guests from all walks of life ran over one after another. Among them, Yongsheng's Xiang Huaqiang was the most active, but no one dared to compete with him, and they all fell behind him.
"Tut, Ah Xuan, you really make me admire, a comedy without a big name actually won 30 million box office, it's a lot of money. By the way, the box office of "The Saint of Gambling" should be almost 35 million, right? Xiang Huaqiang is not as strong as Xiang Huasheng Sven, and he sighed as soon as he came up.
"What's the matter, it's more than 1 million short of 35 million, take your time." Li Xuan pretended to be modest again.
As soon as the record-breaking box office of "The Saint of Gambling" came out, it shocked a large number of Hong Kong people. What made Li Xuan laugh and cry was that when the results of 30 million came out, "The Saint of Gambling" even ushered in a small box office explosion. Within four days, it received another 3 million box office, making "The Saint of Gambling" one step closer to the goal of 35 million.
"Are you still taking your time?" Xiang Huaqiang glanced at Li Xuan with contempt, and scolded with a smile: "You are much stronger than those of us who follow the trend even if you take your time, which time did you not make an earth-shattering move?" ”
"I can't talk about earth-shattering or anything, I just make a little money to spend, and Brother Qiang, your Yongsheng is not bad." Li Xuan opened the topic and complimented indiscriminately.
Xiang Huaqiang waved his hand and said, "It's not as good as it, how can you get rich, by the way, Ah Xuan, what kind of play do you plan to do in the second half of the year?" Or a gambling movie? ”
"Haha, I don't dare to start another gambling movie so soon." Li Xuan said with a smile: "In the past six months, I have taken "God of Gamblers" and "Saint of Gambling" at once, but many people are scolding me for fried cold rice, and then I will release a gambling movie so soon, I don't know what people should say." ”
Xiang Huaqiang pretended to be angry and said: "These unreliable film critics, we can make money and the audience likes it, they like to talk nonsense, and they can't beat or scold, it's really depressing!" ”
"It's not about being depressed or anything, they scold, and I think they're promoting my movie for free."
"My brother can see it, so the second half of the year will ......"
"The filming plan for the second half of the year will definitely not be a gambling film, but ......" Li Xuan raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "But if Brother Qiang wants to borrow someone to make a film, just ask." ”
On August 1, 1984, British Foreign Secretary John Horvey arrived in Hong Kong and held a press conference at the same time, announcing that China and Britain had agreed to the outline and main terms of the agreement. The breaking of this news proves that Hong Kong's return to the motherland has become an irreversible fact for Hong Kong and the whole world.
For Li Xuan, it shows that the most chaotic era in Hong Kong is coming. Now building a good relationship with the members of the club has obviously become Li Xuan's top priority.
But fortunately, he has always had a good relationship with the Xiang brothers.
Xiang Huaqiang was obviously also very satisfied with Li Xuan's words, and said happily: "Haha, then brother, I'm here to thank Brother Li first." By the way, in a few days, my son's full moon wine, you can't help but come. ”
"It must be, how can I not come to my nephew's full moon wine!" Li Xuan raised his glass and smiled.
Xiang Huaqiang married his second wife, Chen Mingying, who came from Taiwan with a mysterious background, a year ago. This strong woman is also quite famous in later generations, and the most talked-about thing is that she helped Zhang Bozhi settle the 'underworld killing order'. And she is also a prosperous husband's life, she gave birth to a son to Xiang Huaqiang just after she got married, and she was so happy that this guy couldn't find Bei for a month.
The current Xiang Huaqiang can definitely be regarded as a double harvest of career and family.
After sending away Xiang Huaqiang, the others rushed up. These people kept congratulating Li Xuan in their mouths, and Li Xuan had to deal with it with a smile. As a result, when all these people were dispatched, Li Xuan found that his mouth was a little stiff with a smile.
Gently rubbing his cheeks with his hand, Li Xuan glanced at the table of Di Long, who was a little lonely in the distance, picked up the wine glass on the table and walked over.
