Five Lakes Song and Dance Hall, the largest and most luxurious box.

"Weimin, did that kid play tricks and discuss with the Bamboo Union Gang to trap us?" Chen Yonghe asked worriedly.

Chen Ping'an and Zhang Zhaole have already left, and only the three bosses of the Four Seas Gang are left in the box. The negotiations between the two sides were originally very smooth, but after Chen Ping'an proposed to monopolize the box office, the pleasant atmosphere changed, and if it wasn't for Liu Weimin to stop him, Chen Yonghe would have gone berserk.

Liu Weimin pointed to the table: "I also have this suspicion." But if you look at these things, do you think he's playing tricks? ”

In the final analysis, the Bamboo Union Gang and the Sihai Gang have been fighting for decades and have hurt each other. If it weren't for the current "Yiqing Project" that is too tight, Liu Weimin and others would never consider Chen Ping'an to mention yì and jointly establish Lianhai Pictures with the Bamboo Union Gang.

Don't look at the chat before, it was very pleasant, but Chen Ping'an's high posture still made him doubt in his heart - how can there be a person in the world who is not greedy for money? But after Chen Ping'an put forward his request, he was annoyed again, and used the money of the Four Seas Gang to give him Chen Ping'an to make money, really think that the Four Seas Gang is Kaizi!

But then again, it was this kind of excessive request that made him believe in Chen Ping'an's sincerity a little more. Not to mention Chen Qili's illegitimate son, even if it is Chen Qili himself, he will have to pay the price if he dares to play the Four Seas Gang! Especially before Chen Ping'an left, he left a copy and script of "Police Story", so that Liu Weimin could see Chen Ping'an's sincerity again.

"him, it's really a kind of duck bully, it actually makes us so embarrassed!" Cai Guanlun smoked a cigar and scolded, "If you want me to talk about bullshit cooperation, I can't trust the Bamboo Union Gang." Didn't he put the copy down, let's use this copy to find a theater to release it, and it's ours to make more and less money, I don't believe he dares to talk nonsense. ”

"Ami, you're confused!" Chen Yonghe turned his gun, "In case that kid's drama can be a big hit, let's not do it all the time, how can we cooperate to make money in the future?" ”

"That's why you said that when you were worried that he was cheating on us. This doesn't work, that doesn't work, you're done! ”

"Alright, stop arguing!" Liu Weimin picked up the script, "The most critical point is this script. If this script can be a big hit, and a sequel can be made, it doesn't matter if he takes the box office, right? ”

"Weimin, what do you mean......" Chen Yonghe and Cai Guanlun's eyes lit up at the same time, and the latter slapped his thigh and shouted outside the door: "Come on, go Zhu Yanping find it!" ”

At nine o'clock in the evening, Zhu Yanping was taken to the Five Lakes Song and Dance Hall by the people of the Four Seas Gang. As soon as she entered the box, Zhu Yanping said, "I don't know why the three big guys came to me so late?" ”

Liu Weimin didn't say much, and threw the script in front of him: "Take a look." ”

Filming! Zhu Yanping breathed a sigh of relief, took the script and looked at it carefully. Half an hour later, he put down the script and looked at Liu Weimin, who took out a puff of cigar and asked, "How is it?" ”

"Okay."

"Good what? I'm asking the box office! ”

Taiwanese films are divided into two parallel lines, one is the art films of Hou Hsiao-hsien and Yang Dechang, there are forty or fifty directors who follow this route, and in recent years, the box office of literary films has been withering day by day, and it is difficult to make popular works; And the other line is Zhu Yanping's commercial film, I dare not say that it is popular, but it is certain that he will be called, otherwise he would not have been escorted by the ** big brother to make movies for 18 years. He has become a guarantee of the Taiwanese box office, but all the movies he directs are basically big hits, otherwise he will be miserable.

So Liu Weimin brought him in, if Zhu Yanping said yes, it means that Chen Ping'an's script is very likely to sell well after being made into a movie.

"It's hard to say at the box office before a drama is released." Zhu Yanping was very cautious, "But judging from this book alone, it should be good." Can I meet the screenwriter? It's the first time I've seen such a detailed storyboard script. ”

"I'll talk about that later. Let me ask you again, is it easy to make a sequel to this drama? How many sequels can be made? ”

Zhu Yanping thought for a moment and replied affirmatively: "The leading actors in this drama are all children, and the plot is not complicated, so the sequel is very easy to film, and it is not a problem to shoot eight out of ten." ”

Eight out of ten is not a problem! Liu Weimin and the three glanced at each other, and Cai Guanlun said: "You go back first, and when you come back, you will serve as the assistant director of this play, and then you will meet the screenwriter." Come on, send Director Zhu back! ”

After Zhu Yanping left, Chen Yonghe touched his chin and said, "It seems that that kid doesn't look like lying, this film company should be very interesting." ”

"Hmm." Liu Weimin nodded, "Duck Bazi gave birth to a good son, who is open-minded and responsible. The fact that he kept a copy of "Police Story" was enough to prove his sincerity. Although his request was excessive, it was normal, otherwise I would have suspected that he had another purpose. Speaking of this, he picked up the copy, "This thing is money, he will give us money first, and then let us pay for him to film, even if the filming is not good, we don't have any loss, right?" ”

Cai Guanlun threw away his cigar: "So you promised him?" Then Po made the atmosphere a little stiff just now, do you want to make up for it? ”

Po is Chen Yonghe's nickname: "How can you blame me? It's a big deal, I'll go to Xinyi City in two days, and let Zhang Yijia's little lady accompany him for a few nights. ”

"Hey, I'll settle it over there, Zhang Yijia, you think of another way!"

Chen Yonghe scratched his head, called the little brother who brought Chen Ping'an in, and asked, "You brought them in just now, is there anything wrong with Andy?" ”

The younger brother thought for a while and said, "Boss, I remember that when I passed by the dance floor, he stared at a girl inside for a long time. ”

"Oh!" Chen Yonghe sat up straight, "Which girl?" Do you remember what it looked like? She's still there? ”

……

At this time, Chen Ping'an had returned to the Yuanshan Hotel with Wu Yusen, and the two sat on the sofa chatting.

"Lao Wu, you have to remember your feelings clearly tonight, in the future, "The True Color of Heroes" will start filming, and there will be a lot of gang scenes in it, you have to grasp it."

"Boss, don't worry, I'll write down my feelings now, and I'll see if I used it when I was filming." Wu Yusen took out a pen and paper and wrote a few words, and suddenly asked again: "Boss, you are too powerful tonight, that is the three giants of the Four Seas Gang, aren't you afraid at all?" ”

"They and I don't have the hatred of killing our father and taking our wife, we just want to make money together, what's there to be afraid of?"

When he came back, because of the unhappiness before leaving the Wuhu Song and Dance Hall, Zhang Zhaole was worried about Chen Ping'an's safety. He once proposed to let Chen Ping'an live in his house or send more people to protect Chen Ping'an at the Yuanshan Hotel, but Chen Ping'an refused. It's not that he's stupid and bold, but because he's confident in this collaboration.

In later life, he dealt with the high-ranking members of the Four Seas Gang. At that time, many bigwigs and heavyweight big brothers of the Four Seas Gang went to the mainland to develop, especially in Shanghai, which had a huge and stable force. When Chen Ping'an was the director, the heroine of one of the dramas was the honey of the Sihai Gang boss who lived in Shanghai, and the filming was very successful.

Afterwards, people were also very particular, not to mention the celebration banquet, they also specially invited him to eat and drink, and after drinking too much, he began to be nostalgic, which made Chen Ping'an know a lot about the Four Seas Gang in the seventies and eighties, so he was full of confidence in this cooperation.

"But I still don't understand, since you're sure that the new drama is a big hit, why do you want to cooperate with the Four Seas Gang?"

Wu Yusen's question, Chen Ping'an did not answer, and there were some things he couldn't tell the other party.

Of course, he is not a good money boy, and he also has enough funds to start filming new films, and the main purpose of establishing Lianhai Pictures is three.

One is to gain a foothold in Taiwan. Taiwan's film industry is too chaotic, and film companies are grabbing theaters and schedules, and even the gang forces behind them will cause shootouts. And in order to make money from filming, he often treats popular artists in Hong Kong and Taiwan by illegal means. Therefore, Chen Ping'an must take root in Taiwan, and anyone who wants to move him must consider the price of his comeback. The Bamboo Alliance joins forces all over the world, and even if the Heavenly Dao Alliance is established in the future, it will have to avoid its edge.

The second is that he doesn't need to set up a branch office in Taiwan. Although Taiwan's film industry is sluggish, but film and television newcomers and rookies in the music industry emerge in an endless stream, in terms of excavating newcomers, Lianhai Pictures is equivalent to a branch of Dark Horse International, otherwise why would he propose to run Lianhai Pictures by himself?

As for the third purpose, he wanted to use the hands of the Bamboo Union Gang and the Four Seas Gang to bring down a few people. For example, Li Xhui, Chen Xbian and others.

He didn't want to say these words to Wu Yusen, and the latter didn't ask, just wrote and painted, and wrote down the feelings and details of meeting the boss of the Sihai Gang tonight, while Chen Ping'an sat on the bed and watched the Qiong Yao drama on TV bored.

Seeing that it was almost twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, the doorbell suddenly rang.

Wu Yusen jumped up from the sofa and looked at Chen Ping'an in a panic, Chen Ping'an didn't move and waved his hand at him: "Old Wu, go open the door, don't be afraid, don't forget to believe in the phrase that peace will live forever." ”

Wu Yusen walked to the door worriedly and asked, "Who?" ”

"Does Mr. Chen live here?" The girl's voice came from outside the door, sweet but with a crying tone.

Wu Yusen didn't dare to be careless, and asked again: "Who are you?" There's no Mr. Chan here. ”

The girl's voice became urgent, and a little panicked: "I know that Mr. Chen lives here, please open the door and let me in." ”

Wu Yusen leaned on the door and listened for a moment, then glanced back at Chen Ping'an, and only opened the door after the latter's instructions.

There was a pure and beautiful girl standing outside the door, about seventeen or eighteen years old, delicate and delicate, at this moment she was choking out of tears, her eyes were red, the fingerprints on her cheeks were clearly visible, and she asked with a frightened expression: "Are you Mr. Chen?" ”

Wu Yusen was startled and hurriedly waved his hand: "I'm not, the boss is inside." ”

The girl walked into the room, saw Chen Ping'an lying on the bed, and asked, "Are you Mr. Chen?" ”

At the same time, Chen Ping'an also saw the girl's appearance clearly, sat up from the bed, and said in amazement: "It's you?" You came to me? Something? ”

The girl burst into tears, crying so inexplicably that Chen Ping'an cried, and said while crying: "I'm here to accompany you tonight......"
