Chapter 694: Wanted in the City

With a good-looking MV and a good song, coupled with the vigorous promotion of the record company, Deng Lijun's new English album was very popular as soon as it was released.

The global sales of more than 500,000 copies on the same day are really amazing, including more than 50,000 copies sold in Hong Kong, and the first day has already reached the gold record achievement. It also sold 200,000 copies in the United States, and it was easy to get on the US Billboard charts, which is a really surprising result.

The title song "This Love Can Be Treated" was a nirvana in the 80s. At that time, Marx was known as the prince of love songs and had a large number of fans. And this song is also very in line with the aesthetics of the Oriental, subtle, introverted, affectionate, no matter the melody, no matter the lyrics, it can be called a veritable classic. In that year, it once set a sales volume of triple platinum in Singapore. This song has been sung all over the country in China and has become a classic of English songs in the minds of a generation.

Although this song was originally sung by a male singer, but now it is performed by Deng Lijun, it adds a special charm, which is really amazing, and the reputation is not as bad as Xu Guanwu thought, on the contrary, the reputation is very good.

AND SEVERAL OTHER SONGS SUCH AS "YOUARENOTALONE", "ONLYTIME", "BEAUTIFULDAY", "EYESONME" AND SO ON ARE ALSO QUITE ACCLAIMED, ESPECIALLY THE SONG "YOUARENOTALONE" IS THE MOST ACCLAIMED, THIS SONG WAS ORIGINALLY MICHAEL. Jackson's single, which was only released in the 90s, topped the Billboard charts just one week after its release, setting a new record for the shortest time to reach the top. And this single is also a very bestseller. It has obtained platinum certification and has sold at least one million.

All in all, Deng Lijun became an instant hit in the United States this time. Both unexpected. And it makes sense. The famous songs of so many singers, classic songs gathered in one album, if they can't be popular, it's really unreasonable.

Deng Lijun became popular, became the most popular Chinese singer in the United States, and many media interviewed this slightly mysterious "Oriental Beauty" and "Shanghi Girl". This is the new nickname that Deng Lijun has just received.

The 80s coincided with the honeymoon period between China and the United States, and the beginning of China's reform and opening up made the United States excited, thinking that the capitalist camp was about to usher in a heavyweight friend. The brothers of the capitalist camp celebrated the opening of a closed but huge market, and many people could not wait to make a fortune in that virgin land.

In '79, Deng Gong visited the United States, and in the same year, the cover of Time Magazine in the United States adopted Deng Gong's portrait for the new year, with the title "Deng XP, the image of China's new era", a month later. He was once again on the cover of Time Magazine with the caption: "Deng, here", introducing the story of Deng Gong's visit to the United States.

Deng's visit to the United States set off a Chinese craze in the United States, a frenzy that continued to burn in the years that followed. Cui Jian, a singer from Shendu, sang a song at the London Asian Music Festival in England with a guitar and was very popular. People are pleasantly surprised to find that there is actually rock music in China, and the core of rebellion and freedom contained in rock and roll actually makes it not only a kind of music, but also a kind of spirit and attitude towards life.

Deng Lijun released an album at this moment, just in time for this wave of Chinese fever, which can be described as the right time and place. If you go a few years forward or a few years back, you can't have such good results. So she really is a lucky woman.

……

Just when Deng Lijun's album was a big hit, the Bamboo Union Gang in Taiwan finally found out the killer who shot Xu Guanwu, named Zhen Hongkun. Originally, he was a member of the Haiyan Gang of the Miaoli Jiaotou Gang, and later the strength of the Bamboo Union Gang expanded to Miaoli, and after defeating the Haiyan Gang, he disappeared, but he didn't expect to appear in Taipei now, and he also shot Xu Guanwu with a gun.

The Zhulian Gang found the arms dealer who sold him the gun, and also found the boat boss who took him out to sea to smuggle away, knowing that after Zhen Hongkun shot him, he knew that the Zhulian Gang Dasuo was the whole city, so he didn't dare to stay in Taipei for too long, and fled to Japan by boat overnight.

Chen Qili naturally knew that Zhen Hongkun's background was not so simple, the Haiyan Gang was just a small corner gang in Miaoli, and the gang was only about 20 people, mainly relying on operating casinos and brothels. After the power of the Bamboo Union Gang expanded to Miaoli, the original Jiaotou gang in Miaoli was swept away, and the alliance of alliances, the incorporation of co-optation, and the suppression of suppression.

Because the Bamboo Union Gang has many people and guns, and the soldiers are full of food, and most of the Jiaotou Gangs are small gangs, although the total number of people is much more than that of the Bamboo Union Gang, but it is a plate of scattered sand, so under the coercion and temptation of the Bamboo Union Gang, the local gangs were quickly swept away. That Haiyan Gang is just one of the inconspicuous small gangs, Chen Qili couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this name at the earliest, and after thinking about it carefully, he finally remembered that there seemed to be such a gang.

However, it has been more than a year ago to sweep away the Haiyan Gang, and even if Zhen Hongkun is loyal to the Haiyan Gang, it is impossible to wait so long to make a move. Besides, after the territory of the Haiyan Gang was cleared by the Bamboo Union Gang, which gang he was following, and where did he get the money to get guns and ammunition, this is always a mystery, if you don't find Zhen Hongkun, I am afraid it will not be clear.

On the one hand, Chen Qili sent people to continue to investigate Zhen Hongkun's interpersonal relationships in Taipei to see where he came from, and on the other hand, he sent people to Japan to visit the Yamaguchi Group, the largest Yakuza organization in Japan, and asked them to help find out Zhen Hongkun. The Bamboo Union Gang has always had a close relationship with the Yamaguchi Group, and at the beginning, the Bamboo Union Gang also sent people to the Yamaguchi Group to learn from the advanced management experience of others. Moreover, there is also a lot of cooperation in the fields of arms, smuggling, and narcotics.

Xu Guanwu received Chen Qili's call, and after hearing his report on the current search situation, he couldn't help frowning. Knowing that things are not that simple, he and this Zhen Hongkun have not had a holiday, and it is not his work that the Haiyan Gang was cleared, so it is basically impossible to get together, and he can't shoot himself at all.

Since it is not his personal factor, there must be someone behind the scenes. No matter who this person is, if he dares to send someone to shoot himself, Xu Guanwu will not let that person have a good time.

"Chen Sheng, you have to help me find out about this matter. Let's see who I can't get by. Xu Guanwu said. I don't want to go to Taipei next time. There will be an extra hole in the body for no reason. ”

"Don't worry, Mr. Xu, this matter is on me." Chen Qili packed the ticket and said, "I will definitely find out about this matter, so you can rest assured." ”

"Very well, then I'll wait for your good news." Xu Guanwu nodded and said, he was about to hang up the phone, but he heard Chen Qili say again. "Mr. Xu, do you know Zeng Zhiwei?"

Xu Guanwu was stunned, "Of course I know, what?" ”

"Oh, he is looking for a film company to invest in Taipei recently, saying that he is going back to Hong Kong to make a movie, I heard that he seems to have had some holidays before, do you want to take the opportunity to repair him?" Chen Qili asked with a smile.

Xu Guanwu was stunned for a moment, and then thought that in his previous life, Zeng Zhiwei did use the funds of Taiwanese film companies to start a number of companies, and he was also the initiator of the large-scale invasion of the Hong Kong film industry by Taiwanese film companies in the late 80s. has the heart to teach him a lesson, so that he can never turn over again. But after thinking about it, forget it, from a young director who rose to fame to a down-and-out filmmaker who ran away to Taiwan in embarrassment. Zeng Zhiwei has also suffered enough, and he has fallen so hard that he doesn't have to go up and step on 10,000 feet again, so that he will never be able to live forever.

"Forget it, let's ignore him. It's been more than half a year. Xu Guanwu smiled, "If he wants to come back, come back." ”

"It's still Mr. Xu, you are generous, if I had replaced him, I would have overturned him a long time ago." Chen Qili smiled and said, "Okay, since you have spoken, I will not be embarrassed for him." ”

Xu Guanwu smiled, and then hung up the phone.

Zeng Zhiwei wants to return to Hong Kong with the funds of Taiwanese film companies to develop, well, it is indeed a not bad idea. Taiwanese films are on the decline, and Hong Kong films are very popular in Taiwan. And if you invest in making films yourself, you will save a lot of money, and you don't have to share the cake with others, this business is really great.

Even Xu Guanwu thinks that the idea of a Taiwanese film company is very right, and if he is a Taiwanese film company, he will definitely use this method. And although Zeng Zhiwei was a little embarrassed when he went to Taiwan, he was actually quite beautiful in Taiwan, because many of the movies he shot had achieved a high box office in Taiwan, which made him a guest of honor for the film company immediately after he went.

And she was not idle in Taiwan for half a year, but helped Taiwanese filmmakers shoot three dramas, all of which are comedies on the theme of pickle girls that he is familiar with in Hong Kong, mixed with pornographic jokes and various, pee and fart plots, although the reputation is poor after the release, the box office is high, which makes the film company happy.

So this time, Zeng Zhiwei proposed to return to Hong Kong for development, and Taiwan's film companies were very supportive, and they quickly raised the first funds. However, because it made too much noise, it attracted the attention of the Bamboo Union gang bosses. Chen Qili remembered that Zeng Zhiwei's younger brother seemed to have dropped a bomb on Xu Guanwu, although this matter may not have been instructed by Zeng Zhiwei, and he may not have known about it, but according to the rules of the rivers and lakes, the younger brother made a mistake, and the eldest brother should be held responsible, so Chen Qili wanted to help Xu Guanwu avenge his revenge, and by the way, let him vent his evil anger in his heart.

Fortunately, Lord Xu Guanwu didn't remember the villain and didn't nod, otherwise Zeng Zhiwei would have to shed his skin even if he didn't die.

……

After returning to Hong Kong from Taiwan, Xu Guanwu accompanied the Lin family to visit Hong Kong, went to Lantau Island to burn incense and worship Buddha, went to Wong Tai Sin Temple to ask for a signature, and went to Central to sweep goods and shop, which made the Lin family very happy.

The Lin family couldn't help but be very happy when they saw that Xu Guanwu was considerate and generous to their family, knowing that their daughter was not inferior in the Xu family, and the relationship between the two was also very deep, and they couldn't help but be much satisfied with the current relationship between the two of them.

Zhao Yazhi saw it in her eyes, and on the surface she put on a generous and uncaring posture, but in her heart she was secretly pantothenic. Looking at how Xu Guanwu treated the Lin family, and then looking at what happened to his brothers and sisters, he couldn't help but be secretly angry in his heart.

Two days ago, her brother and sister were finally transferred back from Guangzhou by Xu Guanwu, and the three of them got off the train so that the Zhao family who went to greet them didn't see it at all. Dressed in military green clothes, wearing a liberation hat, and tanned, he was no different from his cousin who had been smuggled over.

After saying goodbye to the comrades who saw them off, the three of them took the car home, and they couldn't help crying, it turned out that after these two people arrived in Guangzhou, they were immediately put under house arrest in disguise, all their identity documents were confiscated, and all the money on their bodies was collected. With no money and no identification, these people are really unable to move an inch.

Fortunately, the company canteen managed the meals and provided accommodation, so that the two people did not starve to death, but it is impossible to eat and drink spicy food like when they were in Hong Kong, sing songs every night, and party every day.

When I first went, this guy relied on his identity as his mother's family, and also made trouble with the people in the company over there, and even forced him to jump off the building and hang himself several times, but the people over there refused to eat this set. I don't like to eat food, I can't live in the house, and in the end I starved them for three days, their eyes were green, and in the end, not to mention the meat, even if it was a nest, they ate it.

When the Zhao family's parents heard this, tears flowed out, what is this to be a manager, it's like going to prison, I can't help but criticize Xu Guanwu for being inhumane, ruthless, and harming people like this. (To be continued......)
