Tseung Kwan O.

What was once a remote village has now become a deserted construction site.

The British Government of Hong Kong made plans for the development of Tseung Kwan O New Town three years ago, the first step is to build Po Lam and Tsui Lam New Village, the second step is to reclaim the waterfront industry and develop the town centre, and the third step includes the further development of the town centre and the reclamation works in the southern part of the bay.

Unfortunately, as soon as the road from Kowloon to Tseung Kwan O was completed, Sino-British negotiations began, and the Tseung Kwan O development plan was temporarily shelved, leaving only a large area of wasteland that had just started.

Kang Jianfei's Tseung Kwan O Film and Television City is located between Tseung Kwan O and Tiu Keng Lean, covering an area far larger than the Tseung Kwan O Film and Television City in the original time and space. If it weren't for the Sino-British negotiations, the British government in Hong Kong shelved the Tseung Kwan O development plan, and Kang Kimfei would not have been able to buy such a large area of land – some of which is in the government's Tseung Kwan O New Town Plan.

Kang Jianfei's film and television city is next to the "new village" in Tseung Kwan O (in fact, it is still a construction site), and further southeast is the Clear Water Bay Peninsula, which is where the Shaw Brothers Clear Water Bay studio is located.

The car departed from Kowloon City, and after a short distance of Tiu Keng Leg, you could see the dark brown walls of Tseung Kwan O Film and Television City.

Today is the day when several companies under Kang Jianfei moved into the film and television city, although they did not deliberately invite any newspaper to interview, but the reporters still spontaneously came to find news.

Since the Shaw Brothers ceased production, DreamWorks has won a big victory in this summer, and it seems that it has become the number one film company in Hong Kong. Now that a film and television city has been created, and all your related entertainment companies have been moved in, it is impossible not to get attention.

A car drove up to the gate of the studio, and a doorman walked over and said to them, "Please show your ID." ”

The window of the car sticks out of the head and says to the doorman: "Dude, I am Nanfeng, a reporter for the Hong Kong Times." It's easy to take the trouble. ”

Nanfeng said a cigarette and handed it over, he felt that he would definitely come here for interviews in the future, so he wanted to have a good relationship with the doorman.

Unexpectedly, the doorman said: "Mr. Nanfeng, there is a rule above, because there are too many moving company cars today, so your cars can only be parked outside." And when you go in for an interview, you need to register with me. ”

Nanfeng smiled: "It's the road outside, and we have nowhere to park." ”

The doorman pointed to the construction site of Xincun next to it: "The construction site over there has been vacant for two years and can be used for parking." ”

Nanfeng's face was a little dark, and the construction site was at least two kilometers away from the gate of the film and television city. He had to walk over after the interview in a while.

However, it didn't matter if I walked a little more for the interview, and I quickly got out of the car with the photojournalist to register.

After entering the film and television city, Nanfeng found that the inside was not badly repaired, at least much more beautiful than the Clear Water Bay set that was built decades ago. Many trees have also been transplanted along the concrete roadside. Unfortunately, due to the short transplanting time, these trees are bare and do not have many leaves.

Walk on the road. From time to time, trucks dragged office supplies and equipment past. The south wind soon came to the foot of a high-rise building, and from time to time there were stars coming in and out.

The photojournalist hurriedly pressed the shutter, while Nanfeng took the opportunity to run over for an interview.

Half an hour later, Nanfeng had already obtained short interviews with several celebrities, but unfortunately he couldn't enter the building, otherwise the harvest would definitely be greater.

The location where the south wind is located is the administrative district. There are two administrative buildings not far away, each with eight floors, plus an underground car park.

Oriental DreamWorks and Phoenix TV are on the first floor of the administration, with DreamWorks having five floors exclusively. Phoenix TV, on the other hand, has only three floors.

The same is true on the second floor of Xingzheng, where Oriental Entertainment Company enjoys five floors, and Fengxing Records has offices on the remaining three floors.

The administrative area is further past the living area, with a canteen, a supermarket, and several apartment buildings.

The owner of the supermarket is Kang Jianfei's cousin Liang Ying, this woman has nothing to do at home, and when she heard that the film and television city was going to attract investment to open a supermarket, she found Kang Jianfei and said that she wanted to do it herself.

Apartment buildings are places where employees of the company are accommodated, and of course they are not all free, but rented out at a relatively low price. Only veteran employees who have worked in the company for more than 10 years can buy an apartment here at a low price.

To the east of the living area is the studio of the film and television city, part of which is built with magnificent antique buildings, part of which is built as a studio, and part of which is a leveled vacant lot. These open spaces can be left behind for future filming and TV dramas.

"Tseung Kwan O Film and Television City was built so completely unconsciously, Kang Jianfei's ambitions are very big!" Nanfeng stood on an antique street and couldn't help but sigh.

Another reporter who also came to the film and television city for an interview accosted: "Yes, in the future, whether DreamWorks is filming a TV series or a movie, costume dramas can be filmed in the antique area, company dramas can be filmed in administrative buildings, family dramas can be filmed in apartment buildings, except for some plots that need to be filmed on the street, others can be done in the film and television city." ”

The people who came to the film and television city today for interviews are all entertainment reporters, and Nanfeng Tong also knows the person who answered the call, and added: "Several companies are put together, and when you want to make a film, you will go to Oriental Entertainment Company to find actors, and the post-production soundtrack is also convenient, because Fengxing Records is also here." ”

The two reporters were chatting while wandering around the antique street, and when they came out after a while, a photojournalist suddenly said: "Nanfeng, do you see if it is Chen Xunqi over there?" ”

Chen Xunqi is not only the owner and director of the film company, but also a movie star, because his movies usually play the male lead by himself - this guy is an all-round jack-of-all-trades, writing, directing, acting, and doing his own soundtrack and editing.

Nanfeng fixed his eyes and immediately ran wildly: "It's him, go for an interview!" ”

Nanfeng quickly caught up with Chen Xunqi, and asked while panting: "Mr. Chen, I am Nanfeng of the Hong Kong Times, why did you appear in the film and television city, do you want to cooperate with Mr. Kang again?" ”

Chen Xunqi came to try to contact Kang Jianfei today, but he didn't expect to run into reporters, his face changed and said, "I'm sorry, I don't accept your interview." ”

Chen Xunqi walked quickly to the administrative building, Nanfeng and several other reporters followed him closely, and continued to ask: "Mr. Chen, are you going to close Yongjia Pictures and return to DreamWorks?" ”

A minute later, Chen Xunqi had already entered the administrative building without saying a word, while Nanfeng and several other reporters were stopped by the doorman.

Although Chen Xunqi did not answer any questions, the reporters were very happy, because Chen Xunqi's appearance here is big news.

A car drove by, Weng Meiling lay in the window, watching the reporters chasing Chen Xunqi from a distance, and couldn't help sighing: "When will we become big stars?" ”

Wang Guxian chewed a snack in his mouth and said: "You are a star now, the female No. 3 of "Sister Tuogun 3" has long been a household name in Hong Kong. ”

"If you can play the second female lead, it's almost the same, and the female third has a lot of roles." Weng Meiling pouted.

Wang Guxian stuffed a piece of potato chips into Weng Meiling's mouth and said: "It's good to be able to play the female number three, but now there are more and more actors in the company, and the competition pressure is so great." ”

The competition of Oriental Entertainment Company is really cruel, although the income of famous actors is higher than that of their counterparts in other companies, but the third-tier actors and newcomers are very miserable, and they can only make ends meet. But even so, the dream of becoming famous and making a lot of money still attracts countless people to moths to the fire.

Weng Meiling chewed potato chips and said, "You are embarrassed to say that with Mr. Kang's special care, there has never been a shortage of performances." ”

"He said he was going to make a special film for me, but I guess I forgot about it." Wang Guxian said with some loss.

Weng Meiling took the initiative to go to Wang Guxian to get potato chips to eat, and said: "This time, the four companies moved together, and I heard that because of the overlapping functions, many people were fired. ”

"The beginning and end is to fire the squid, some departments are directly disbanded, and I saw someone splashing red paint and scolding Mr. Kang yesterday." Wang Guxian said.

The two beauties didn't say a few words, and the car had already driven to the apartment building in the living area, dragging a bunch of luggage out of the trunk.

Just when Weng Meiling and Wang Guxian were struggling to move, Chen Xunqi had already come to Kang Jianfei's office.

Kang Jianfei used to have his own offices and secretaries in several companies, but now that the four companies have moved together, there is only one office left in his office. However, there are still four secretaries, who are responsible for the affairs of the four companies, and then go to Zeng Bolin to summarize the information, and then arrange the work itinerary to feed back.

Chen Xunqi originally wanted to come over and sigh Kang Jianfei's tone, but when Kang Jianfei shook hands with him, he directly smiled and said: "Welcome back!" ”

Kang Jianfei knew Chen Xunqi's character very well, if it weren't for the plan to return to DreamWorks, he wouldn't have come back to find here.

Seeing that Kang Jianfei was so disregardful, Chen Xunqi's face burned in panic and said: "Yongjia Pictures will take two months to dissolve. ”

"No problem, you can go back to DreamWorks whenever you want." Kang Jianfei said with a smile.

Let the employees treat the company as a vegetable market, go in and out freely and come back, is Kang Jianfei such a generous person?

Of course not.

The reason why Kang Jianfei didn't mention Chen Xunqi's betrayal at the beginning was because he took a fancy to this person's ability.

Unlike Golden Harvest and New Arts City, which focus on a certain type of film, Kang Jianfei hopes that DreamWorks can shoot various types of films.

Now the directors of DreamWorks are good at police and gangster films, such as Li Xiuxian, who is good at realistic themes, Xu Ke, who is good at fantasy, Wu Yusen, who is good at Jianghu hero films, McDonjie, who is good at youth campus themes, and Wang Jing and Zeng Zhiwei, who are good at comedy......

Chen Xunqi's genre is urban comedy, and unlike the comedies of Wang Jing and Zeng Zhiwei, he is biased towards middle-class petty bourgeois tastes. With the development of Hong Kong's economy, Hong Kong's middle class will become larger and larger, and Chen Xunqi is the most powerful middle-class film director in Hong Kong.

Kang Jianfei's "generosity" made the two instantly relieved their suspicions, and after chatting a few words, Kang Jianfei turned his eyes to Wang Jiawei beside Chen Xunqi and said, "This gentleman is so familiar." ”

Chen Xunqi introduced: "His name is Wang Jiawei, and he is my screenwriter and assistant. (To be continued......)
