Chapter 700: Zhou Xingchi

Xu Guanwu walked all the way, although he didn't see the stars he was familiar with, but the candidates who applied for the exam here all noticed the luxury car that Xu Guanwu was riding.

The shape of the flying goddess on the front of the Rollslath car is really eye-catching, and the license plate hanging is more eye-catching than the car. The single number has an "eight", which is unique in Hong Kong, so that people can know whose car it is as soon as they see it.

This license plate was specially photographed by Xu Guanwu for 5 million Hong Kong dollars, specifically to match his Rolls-Royce. When Xu Guanwu first started to have money, the car he took was a German-made Mercedes-Benz, although it was already a good car, but among the many wealthy people in Hong Kong, it was basically not ranked.

The top cars in Hong Kong are still British-made cars, Rolls-Royce, Maybach, Lotus, etc., all of which are the choices of the top rich. Xu Guanwu didn't care at first, he sat in Mercedes-Benz in and out, and later participated in more activities, and saw that the parking lot was full of luxury cars worth more than one million, so his Mercedes-Benz was too inconspicuous, so he had to buy a Rolls-Royce again.

Rolls-Royce has always advertised itself as a luxury in the automotive industry, not for ordinary people to enjoy, anyone who wants to order a car of this brand, must apply in advance and then Rolls-Royce investigates the background of the person, if it is innocent, well-known, is quite a good quality customer, they will sell the car to you. But if it is found that this person is not clean, he is the head of the Black X Society or a criminal full of evil, then he will be embarrassed.

Xu Guanwu is a world-class top richman, a well-known investor in Hollywood, and a Justice of the Peace in Hong Kong. The innocence of natural wealth cannot be checked. So the application was quickly approved. And half a year later, he received a luxury car that he ordered, and he also became a member of the Rolls-Royce luxury car in Hong Kong.

Later, in order to match this car, Xu Guanwu specially spent 5 million to take the No. 8 license plate. License plates, which are scarce in Hong Kong, are sometimes more expensive than cars. It seems that Xu Guanwu's Rolls-Royce is only 6 million Hong Kong dollars, but the car license plate is worth 5 million Hong Kong dollars.

To be honest, if the other bidders were not afraid of Xu Guanwu's identity and did not re-auction, I am afraid that Xu Guanwu would have to add at least another one million if he wanted to win this license plate. A luxury car worth six million is paired with a license plate worth five million. It immediately became the focus of Hong Kong media reports, and now basically a Hong Kong person, everyone knows that Xu Guanwu has a car with a license plate number of "eight", which is worth 11 million Hong Kong dollars, which is a sky-high price that ordinary people can hardly imagine at that time.

At this moment, Xu Guanwu came to Xinghui Art School in this luxury car, and was immediately recognized by the candidates who applied for the exam. For a time, it caused a sensation among the candidates. Everyone knows that the big boss Xu Guanwu may be sitting in the car, if he can attract his attention and enter his eyes, he is afraid of entering Xinghui Art School. Becoming a big star is just around the corner.

You must know that every candidate has heard this story before, and now Hong Kong's first-line superstar Lu Liangwei. It was discovered by Xu Guanwu when he applied for Xinghui Art School. At that time, he hadn't even enrolled in school, but he kicked a can while queuing up to sign up, and the can rolled to Xu Guanwu's feet to attract his attention.

Of course, these students can't be stupid enough to smash Xu Guanwu's car with a soda can, such a beautiful car, you have to pay tens of thousands of yuan for a scratch, most of the candidates who come to apply for the exam are from poor families, who dares to poke this basket when they are idle?! If you don't get caught by others, and then let you lose the car money, it will be really unlucky to knock on the door - unlucky to get home.

However, everyone still posed in what they thought was the most eye-catching, or frequently winked in the car, or posed for their exquisite and convex S-shaped curves, or were excited and stunned, waiting for the car to pass by before regretting it and crying bitterly...... For a while, a picture of all living beings was staged at this door.

Although the candidates tried their best to attract Xu Guanwu's attention, Xu Guanwu's car never stopped, and still drove forward unswervingly, seeing that he was about to enter the school gate, at this moment, a black shadow suddenly appeared from the side, and he jumped up directly on the front glass of the Rolls-Royce.

Fortunately, the car was moving slowly, and the driver quickly stopped the car, otherwise it would have been dangerous.

Xu Guanwu couldn't help but be stunned, secretly thinking that this candidate was ruthless enough to himself, and in order to attract his attention, he used such drastic and dangerous methods. But thinking about it again, Xu Guanwu couldn't help but smile, he knew that this candidate was also very smart. It's not too difficult to jump into this slow-moving car, and the danger is not as great as expected, but the effect is really extraordinary.

"Not bad, not bad." Xu Guanwu nodded, knowing that this was a person who was willing to use his brain, was bold, and was willing to fight at the same time. Even if such a person doesn't enter the showbiz, with his ruthlessness, it is estimated that he can succeed in doing other things.

"Boss, do you want me to go out and teach him a lesson?" The driver, Ah Hong, said a little angrily.

Thanks to his slower driving now, he didn't cause any serious accidents, but this person did startle him. Thanks to his rigorous training, he didn't cause panic. If you were an ordinary person, you might be afraid that it would cause a serious traffic accident.

Use this method to attract the attention of the boss, and this person is not only cruel to himself, but also to others.

"Forget it." Xu Guanwu waved his hand, "Keep going, I think he seems to be quite comfortable staying on it." ”

The driver smiled and continued to start the car, this time not slowly, but roaring into the playground of the Starlight Art School. Thanks to the smooth road surface in the school, no matter how fast the car runs, it is not too bumpy, otherwise the candidate is likely to be turned upside down and face the fate of dying under the wheels at any time.

Even so, it still caused an exclamation from those candidates, who were surprised by the candidate's audacity, and at the same time secretly regretted why they didn't stand up. Although he was surprised by Xu Guanwu's next disposition, he faintly had a sense of schadenfreude.

In the eyes of everyone, Xu Guanwu's car quickly stopped on the playground, and then Liu Tianci came out with the teacher, and when he saw the candidate lying on the front of the car, he couldn't help but be surprised and then couldn't help but smile.

At this time. Xu Guanwu got out of the car with the driver. Neither of them paid attention to the man lying on his stomach at the front of the car. Instead, he shook hands with Liu Tianci first, "It seems that this year's enrollment is very hot again, and so many candidates are in a long queue there." ”

"Yes, I think the number of candidates this year is going to hit a new high." Liu Tianci smiled, "It is estimated that the number of candidates this year will reach 10,000." ”

"Very good, then it is even more important to select the best of the best to ensure the quality of candidates in Xinghui Art School." Xu Guanwu nodded and smiled.

At this time, the candidate lying on the front of the car finally woke up. Slowly slipped out of the front of the car, and then walked to Xu Guanwu, "Mr. Xu, I am the No. 9527 candidate, I teach Zhou Xingchi, I hope Mr. Xu can give me a chance, I will designate it." ”

Xu Guanwu couldn't help but glance at him in surprise when he introduced himself like this, it didn't look like it at first glance, and he felt that there was a gap between him and Zhou Xingxing when he starred in "The Saint of Gambling" and "Truant Dragon". But if you look closely, the more you look at it, the more it looks. However, now Zhou Xingchi has short hair and a mustache. And probably because of malnutrition, the whole person looks so thin, which is very different from the star master Xu Guanwu is familiar with.

Later, Xu Guanwu learned that Zhou Xingchi knew that he had a slightly uninteresting face, which made him look a few years younger than his actual age, so he was often rejected when he went to work in the factory. Later, he was able to grow a beard to make him look more mature.

Knowing that this extremely bold candidate was Zhou Xingchi, Xu Guanwu had a feeling that this was indeed the case. Because he knows that Zhou Xingchi is indeed a person who is ruthless enough to himself and others, especially his obsession with becoming famous is quite deep, he dares to discuss with the director to add drama when he is playing tricks, and he would rather be scolded like a dog in order to make a movie, this kind of hard work is very rare among many stars in Hong Kong.

In his previous life, Xu Guanwu liked Zhou Xingchi's works very much, whether it was classic works such as "Journey to the West", "The Legend of Deer and Ding", "Truant Weilong", "Domestic Lingling Paint", or "Lucky Dragon", "King of a Thousand Kings 2000", "Senior Brother Hit a Ghost", "97 Happy Events" and other bad movies, Xu Guanwu has watched it countless times, and feels that Zhou Xingchi is indeed an excellent actor, and his position in the movie is indispensable.

It's hard for you to imagine that another person to star in "Domestic Lingling Paint" can make this film so funny and groundbreaking. It's like Wang Jing once gathered almost the same people to shoot "The Legend of the Truant Hero", but the starring role was changed from Zhou Xingchi to Zhang Jianting, but the box office difference reached 20 million Hong Kong dollars, which shows that Zhou Xingchi's box office appeal is really strong.

As a fan of Zhou Xingchi, Xu Guanwu admires his works. However, from the perspective of investors, Xu Guanwu feels that it is best to block Zhou Xingchi from the beginning. Unlike Zhou Runfa, Zhang Guorong, Cheng Long, Hong Jingbao and other old-school movie stars, Zhou Xingchi is seriously lacking in gratitude.

Because Zhou Yanfa was originally popular by Xinyicheng, the films he made after he became popular were in Xinyicheng until the closure of Xinyicheng in the 90s. Zhang Guorong is grateful to Huang Baiming for supporting him in filming "Farewell My Concubine", so whenever there is a scene of Huang Baiming, even if he is not deliberately invited, he has to go to the scene, as if "97 Happy Events" showed a small face at the end. Cheng Long, not to mention Hong Jingbao, basically the best years stayed in Jiahe.

In comparison, Zhou Xingchi first had a stiff with Li Xiuxian, then with Wang Jing, and finally even Li Lizhi, Wu Mengda, and Luo Jiaying were stiff, and the low EQ can be seen. And basically no one who has worked with him has anything good to say, almost a crusade of all mouths, to be honest, this situation is very rare in the Hong Kong film industry.

In fact, it is difficult for outsiders to figure out what the truth is. However, at least one thing Xu Guanwu is relatively clear is that Zhou Xingchi attaches more importance to money. Many people fell out with him basically because of money entanglements, and Zhou Xingchi was probably poor and afraid when he was a child, so he paid more attention to money. After many celebrities become famous, they may be filmed by nobles who have been promoted to fame before, and they may charge a little less, such as as a friendship price or something.

For example, Liang Chaowei's net worth soared after "Infernal Affairs", and the price reached 8 million for a play, but he only received a friendship price of 3 million Hong Kong dollars when he took over Wang Jiawei's play. Liu Dehua only received half of the 8 million salary for filming, and the other half was used as an investment in the film. Zhang Xueyou also starred in the film at a friendly price, basically with a 20% discount or something.

is not as high as Zhou Xingchi's asking price, "92 Happy Events" shouted 8 million Hong Kong dollars, and Zhang Guorong's salary at that time was only 5 million Hong Kong dollars. And it was his first comeback filming after his retirement, which is actually more topical than Zhou Xingchi. Even Huang Baiming recalled in the future, "I felt like I was bitten".
