Chapter 363: Cai Ziming is missing
Returning from Taiwan, Zhong Chuhong, the queen of the new Golden Horse and Wang Guxian, the queen of the Golden Statue of Xinke, surrounded by many award-winning staff of Dark Horse International, Chen Ping'an walked out of the charter flight from Taiwan to Hong Kong.
During this trip to Taiwan, Dark Horse International won a number of trophies, and Chen Ping'an won four awards. He and Zhong Chuhong conquered the audience and judges with their superb performance of "Autumn Fairy Tale", and both were crowned emperors.
Standing in front of the camera, the man is handsome and extraordinary, and the woman is sexy and beautiful, like a pair of golden boys and girls. Even some Taiwanese media began to joke about the two, saying that the two were a natural pair, but it was a pity that the jade girl was slightly older than the golden boy.
The Hong Kong media took "A Chinese Ghost Story" to talk about it, saying that at this year's Academy Awards, Chen Ping'an and Wang Guxian were also crowned emperors, and they were also a pair of golden boys and girls, born a pair, and the age is very appropriate.
At this time, the media didn't care that Wang Guxian was from Taiwan, Zhong Chuhong was from Hong Kong, etc., they were just to hype up and increase the topicality, after all, readers like this kind of gossip, right?
The most ruthless are naturally those third-rate tabloids, they pointed out in the newspaper that Chen Ping'an has successively won the fiefdom at the Academy Awards and Golden Horse Awards this year, and the heroines who are his partner have been sealed separately, saying that he is simply a lucky star for actresses, and if he wants, I believe there will be countless actresses vying for arms.
The most intuitive response to the title of actress is the skyrocketing value. In the era when actresses' salaries are relatively low, this is nothing less than a shortcut to increase their worth!
I don't know if those third-rate tabloids in Hong Kong and Taiwan have been discussed, and they finally began to half-jokingly and half-seriously discuss the future of Chen Ping'an, Zhong Chuhong, and Wang Guxian.
Some tabloids expressed regret, saying that Chen Ping'an did not catch up with the good times. If you were born decades earlier, Hong Kong and Taiwan do not oppose the system of wives and concubines. He could have married both of his daughters.
Immediately, some tabloids objected, saying that fortunately the system had changed. Otherwise, wouldn't Chen Ping'an become an actress killer, and wouldn't most of the beautiful actresses fall into his arms? How does this make others live?
There are also tabloids that put on a tone of "you don't understand", saying that in this day and age, who said that it must be monogamy? How many celebrities, gentlemen, and rich people don't have several wives? Can't Chen Ping'an follow their example?
The reason why tabloids are tabloids is because they can completely ignore the authenticity of their reports, as long as readers love to read them.
Indeed, the issue of Chen Ping'an, Zhong Chuhong, and Wang Guxian's two daughters has aroused the interest of many citizens in Hong Kong and Taiwan. Even in Japan and Singapore, there are citizens gossiping about this matter.
So the tabloids began to discuss the difference between Chen Ping'an and those wealthy giants of the older generation who had wives and concubines. Some people are artificially based on the current scale of Dark Horse International, which is no worse than those giants; Some people also think that the scale of Dark Horse International today is a little worse than those giants......
Whether Chen Ping'an can be on an equal footing with those old giants is quickly unified. When Chen Ping'an's acquisition of ATV reached the substantive stage, the voices of disagreement instantly became much smaller.
As long as the acquisition of ATV is successful, Chen Ping'an will be able to establish an entertainment empire that spans film and television songs, and this scale, just from the surface, is on par with those old giants!
But before that. There is another incident that has caused a great sensation in Hong Kong, and its repercussions have even covered up Chen Ping'an's return from Taiwan -- Cai Ziming, the owner of Fuyi Film Company, has disappeared!
After participating in the Golden Horse Awards, Chen Ping'an was summoned by the police the day after returning to Taiwan. Ask him about Cai Ziming.
Cai Ziming disappeared the day before the Golden Horse Awards, and then his family called the police, considering the rumors not long ago. This matter has aroused great attention from the police. The police have always been very similar to defeating the underworld forces that have invaded the entertainment industry, and they have been working hard. Unfortunately, it had little effect.
Cai Ziming's disappearance was regarded by them as a breakthrough. Because this matter is likely to be related to Chen Ping'an, a popular figure in the film industry.
So the day after Chen Ping'an returned to Hong Kong, he met Ren Darong again in the crew who came to inquire.
On this day, the crew was filming exterior scenes, filming a letter written to each other by Chen Ping'an and Zhang Min buried under a big tree.
The location was chosen on Lantau Island, which is a beautiful place with beautiful scenery and pleasant scenery. With the popularity of "Midnight Bell", more and more foreigners have learned that there is such a beautiful scenery in Hong Kong. Although Midnight Bell is full of horror and horror, the beauty of Lantau Island has won over many tourists, and most visitors to Hong Kong choose to stay there for two days.
The residents of Lantau Island are also very savvy, and when they saw the business opportunities, they began to build some holiday homes based on the scenes in "Midnight Bells", digging a deep pit on the ground and enclosing it with cement to look like a well to attract tourists.
There are also many people who play the slogan ""Midnight Bell" is filmed here" to flaunt their authenticity and attract tourists.
This time, Chen Ping'an brought the crew of "My Savage Girlfriend" to Lantau Island for filming, and the local departments and residents of Lantau Island gave a strong welcome, and the support was beyond imagination, and many of the support was free.
In this plot, Chen Ping'an made minor modifications. The train in the original book was replaced by a ferry. The two buried the letter, agreed to meet under the big tree on a good day, and then broke up. At Zhang Min's request, Chen Ping'an boarded the ship first and left.
After the ferry departed, Zhang Min couldn't give up, so he found a speedboat at the ferry port and chased after him; As a result, Chen Ping'an, who was also unable to give up, jumped into the sea from the ferry and swam back to the ferry, and the two passed by and finally separated.
"Cards!" The shooting was very satisfied, Wang Jing shouted to stop, then stood up and hurriedly shouted, "Go and help Director Chen!" ”
With the assistance of the staff, Chen Ping'an climbed onto the speedboat wet and returned in the distance, with the photographer and his assistant on it.
Climbing into the speedboat, a staff member immediately draped a blanket over him and dried his hair and body. Although Hong Kong, which is approaching December, is not as cold as the north, the temperature is not high, and after being soaked in seawater, it is easy to catch a cold and fever if it is not properly prevented.
Back at the ferry, another staff member brought the ginger soup that had been prepared for him to ward off the cold.
"Boss, Sir Ren is here, and I've been waiting for you over there." Gu Tianle walked over and whispered in Chen Ping'an's ear.
Chen Ping'an glanced at it and saw Ren Darong sitting on the shore with a policeman in civilian clothes not far away, and said casually: "Let him wait, I'll take a look at the shooting picture first." ”
After the train was changed to a ferry, the difficulty of filming increased a lot, and if he wanted to reshoot, he had to dry his body first, which was very troublesome.
Fortunately, Pan Hengsheng took several photographers to work with him many times, and he was already familiar with his requirements, and he was able to shoot completely according to his requirements, and the picture was well shot and met his requirements.
At this time, he asked Wang Jing to announce that the crew was temporarily resting, wearing a blanket and wiping his hair, walking into the bus, blowing the heater and drinking ginger soup, and at the same time asked Gu Tianle to invite Ren Darong.
"Unexpectedly, it's not easy for you to film!"
Ren Darong got on the bus and sighed. He has been here for a long time, and he has been watching the crew filming on the side, and he admires Chen Ping'an's attitude towards making movies. Just like the scene of jumping into the sea just now, he knew that Wang Jing had built a stand-in to avoid accidents, but was rejected by Chen Ping'an, because it required a slight modification of the plot and the deletion of two pictures, and at the same time, he could not take a close-up shot, while being seen by the audience with the face of the stand-in.
"You're a big boss, are you still working so hard? There are so many good actors, why do you have to compete with them, you are already the most famous director and screenwriter in Hong Kong! ”
"May I understand that you are complimenting me?"
"Huh." Ren Darong shrugged his shoulders and chuckled, "No matter how you understand it, but with your current status and achievements, do you still need to be complimented by others?" ”
The two looked at each other and laughed, Chen Ping'an asked, "Ren Sir chased all the way to Lantau Island, wouldn't it be to tell me this?" ”
"You are a smart person, and I like to deal with smart people the most, saving trouble." Ren Darong nodded, and his words changed sharply, "As I just said, with your current status and achievements, you must clean yourself and cherish your feathers!" ”
"I don't understand what sir Ren said."
"Mr. Chen, it's not interesting for you to say that, I just said that you are a smart person."
"Isn't there a time when a wise man doesn't understand?"
"In that case, then I'll just say it, have you heard of Fuyi Film Company?"
Chen Ping'an nodded, smiling.
"Boss Cai Ziming, you know, right?"
The smile is still there.
"Cai Ziming is missing, you know, right?" Before the words fell, Ren Darong revealed a sharp gaze like an eagle falcon and stared at Chen Ping'an.
Chen Ping'an laughed, and after a while, he smiled and said, "Aren't you dead?" ”
"What do you mean by that?"
"I think it's a good thing if he dies."
"So, you sent someone to do it?"
Chen Ping'an put away his smile and said seriously: "Ren sir, you can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense." I'm a law-abiding filmmaker, how can I do anything that violates the law and discipline? ”
"If so, of course it's best, but the question is, are you really law-abiding?"
"Familiar, but if you say so, I can still sue you for slander."
Cai Ziming's disappearance, not only the police suspected Chen Ping'an, but many people thought of Chen Ping'an for the first time. Just because of the rumor not long ago, it was Cai Ziming who offended Chen Ping'an, and there were dark flowers hanging red on the road to buy Cai Ziming's life. And the reward is a share of the next fundraising order, worth millions of dollars.
"You know, whether you did it or not, you are the most suspicious. If this matter cannot be clarified, it will have a bad impact on your reputation. ”
"This is your policeman's business, I don't want to insult the police with the statement of paying taxes, but I did not pay less taxes, you have the responsibility and obligation to find out the truth, don't you?"
Ren Darong was silent for a moment, and then asked, "Then do you have any suggestions?" ”
"Hehe, his background, I don't know if your police have thoroughly investigated." (To be continued......)
