got a phone call from Tino to imply that Sun Ziming already wanted to return to Hong Kong, not that Shantino and their revenge made him feel homesick, but that that great era had begun to come to an end.

This world is like this, the masters come one by one, and the great movies are also coming one by one, and when they enter the new century, the entire film industry will enter an era of mediocrity. Sun Ziming has already achieved fame, and it is only to make some box office money if he continues to shoot it, so it is better to go back to Hong Kong and try it and use Hollywood's narrative mode to make a "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"-style Chinese-language film.

And the opportunity was that he found that one of Hong Kong's greatest films, "Infernal Affairs", was actually fanned by the wings of his butterfly. Liu Weiqiang, who finished filming "Hacker Trilogy", is now thinking about bringing the story of Chinatown to the big screen, and Zhuang Wenqiang's guy has gone north and is like a fish in water in the light and shadow branch, and he has not come up with the idea of being great.

Sun Ziming locked himself in the study for a day, and finished writing the script at eight or nine o'clock in the evening, and threw it to Liu Weiqiang, who was gambling with Douglas and Lu Huiguang, "Stop playing, you can help you take a look." Ah Guang, go and make a few spicy dishes, I haven't eaten them for a long time."

"Oh", Lu Huiguang, who knew that Sun Ziming was in a bad mood during this time, hurriedly went to the kitchen to show his skills, and Kayo Sato, who was joining in the fun next to the card table, saw that the boss was busy, and hurriedly reported: "Boss, Ms. Shirley has something to find you and wants to talk to you alone." ”

"Shirley? Did you say something? ”

“No”

Douglas put away the playing cards on the table and cautiously reminded, "Boss, she doesn't want to ask you for help, does she?" Paramount's performance has not been good in the past two years, and she is under a lot of pressure. ”

There is no need for him to remind him, Sun Ziming also knows that Shirley is under a lot of pressure, and if possible, he is still willing to pull her. Although Viacom Group refused to cooperate last time, it is better to have one more ally in Hollywood than one more opponent. Shirley was able to make friends with people like Tino when she was humble, and her vision was very good, but it was only because she was unlucky that she snatched a few classics and abducted Spielberg and Cruise that she was in such a situation today.

Seeing that Sun Ziming nodded, Kayo Sato hurriedly called to inform, and put down the microphone in less than a minute and said, "Boss, she will be here in twenty minutes." ”

So fast? You don't have to be in such a hurry to help yourself, right?

Twenty minutes later, Sun Ziming, who was enjoying the spicy heat, lost his interest because the bastard following Shirley was Bobby. As soon as the three of them shook hands politely, Liu Weiqiang ran down from the stairs excitedly, waving the script and shouting: "Big man, I'm back to Hong Kong, I'm back to Hong Kong!" This book hangs, if you let Fa Ge and Ah Hui and Ah Yi soar, it will definitely be enjoyable! ”

After shouting, Liu Weiqiang, who was on the rise, found that Shirley and a young man he didn't know were standing in the restaurant and greeting the big guy, and hurriedly said: "Ms. Shirley, I'm really sorry, I'm overexcited." ”

"Understood", Shirley glanced at the script in Liu Weiqiang's hand enviously, and took the initiative to reach over to shake hands with him, but did not introduce Bobby next to him to him. Bobby, who looks personable and gentlemanly, didn't know the meaning of the two-time Oscar-winning cinematography and Hollywood A-level director, and stood there reservedly and motionless.

Liu Weiqiang is not an eyeless person, seeing the strange atmosphere in the restaurant, his boss looked a little unhappy, shook hands with Shirley and hurriedly walked away, but was stopped by Sun Ziming in English, "Set up the crew frame for me, I want to watch it in twenty minutes!" ”

"Yes/boss, I'll come back to you in twenty minutes", Liu Weiqiang hurriedly agreed, and cooperated with tacit understanding to help his boss give an eviction order.

When Liu Weiqiang left, Shirley, who was a little embarrassed, said helplessly: "Ming, Bobby is the son of my half-sister, he has something to do with you, why don't you talk a few words?" ”

Bobby Gere's family background, the grandson knows it well, it is a rich family with a long history. Shirley introduced this, and Sun Ziming immediately knew why she was so familiar with Tino's gang.

Although with the progress of the times, there is no difference between illegitimate children and children born in registered marriages in European and American countries, but in Shirley's time, they were discriminated against. No wonder she never mentioned her biological father, and they never said anything about it.

"Cooperation?"

Sun Ziming looked at Bobby and said strangely: "Bobby, do you think we have the basis for cooperation?" ”

Bobby was aggressive in the negotiations, and said gently: "Ming, there are no eternal enemies, but there are eternal interests." ”

After sitting down again and pulling the rest of the rice, Sun Ziming got up and wiped his mouth and said, "Shirley, I attach great importance to friendship and family affection, so I will give your nephew twenty minutes." ”

Shirley smiled and said unconcernedly, "Ok, then I'll take my leave first." ”

Bobby next to him changed his face, and said quietly: "Ming, there is something you need to figure out, I came to you at a risk." ”

Risk? Sun Ziming swallowed back the ridicule that came to his mouth, stretched out his hand and signaled: "Please, go to my study to talk." ”

The two went upstairs into the study, and Sun Ziming poured a glass of whiskey for Bobby, waiting for him to explain to himself.

Bobby shook his wine glass, and Sven said slowly: "Ming, if I sue you, I am sure that Edward's old guy will resign voluntarily within a week, do you think we have a chance to cooperate?" ”

Sun Ziming's heart was shocked, and he immediately took this as a joke, how can the head of the CIA be changed by this rich kid?

"You don't believe it? Ok, I'll tell you a secret, I only found out this morning, that old guy has liver cancer, and it's in an advanced stage. ”

Well? Sun Ziming looked at Bobby in shock, does this guy know what he's talking about? If Edward's old bastard is revealed to be terminally ill, he will lose control of the CIA in a very short period of time, and their blackmail will be in vain.

After being silent for a while, Sun Tzu Mingcai said quietly: "Bobby, this is a big matter, I admit that I am very interested in this mention, but you have to give me an explanation." ”

Bobby smiled and pointed to a simple Patek Philippe watch on his wrist, Sun Ziming quickly got up and opened the door of the study, and said to Kayo Sato at the door: "Kayo, don't let others disturb us." ”

“Yes/boss”

Bobby waited for Sun Ziming to sit down again, and without explaining to him why he did it, he talked about blackmailing him this time.

"Ming, from your standpoint, Shantino did a very despicable job this time, but from our standpoint, it is a very reasonable counterattack, because you broke the rules of our game, which is one of the reasons why he was able to convince Edward and Kane, the two old guys."

If you are willing to gamble, you have to admit defeat, Sun Ziming will admit this blackmail, and he will only find reasons from himself, such as soft-heartedness, such as lack of greed, but he will not be like Bobby who is a/son and wants to set up an archway.

"No, Ming, you're wrong. I was also involved in their plans with Santino, and we have shown you kindness several times, but you have rejected them. If Santino wasn't your partner, we wouldn't have much to say, but you're clearly taking advantage of the opportunity. If you are dissatisfied with the behavior of the screen fund, you can give a stern warning instead of betraying your friends like this. ”
