Chapter Twenty-Three: Want to Stay Left and Right?

Hong Kong, Kai Tak Airport, Shen Xudong followed the crowd and got off the plane.

"I must buy a private jet!"

“… Feeling inconvenient? ”

"Well, it's so inconvenient!"

Civil aviation flights are generally fixed, no matter who you are, as long as you buy a ticket, even if you have something urgent, you have to wait for the flight obediently like ordinary people.

But private jets are not the same because there is freedom to set the time of travel...

Oh, Shen Xudong arrived in Hong Kong with Gao Fenfen.

This time I came to Hong Kong, in addition to promoting "Zhao Zilong 2", but also the entire Golden Harvest film promotion - the film plan for the next three years!

Gao Fenfen is a director of the board of directors of Golden Harvest and the head of the head office...

In every sense of the word, she should be present on such occasions.

Gao Fenfen snorted and didn't speak...

I guess she was also wondering if there was a need to buy a private jet...

It's not that you can't afford it, but will it be too public?

Oh, and Uncle Motosugi hasn't bought a private jet yet.

Shen Xudong is actually addicted, he searches so much, buying a plane?

The rent for parking at the airport alone costs 5 million a year!

Unless you wait until Bitcoin skyrockets...

Oh, and next year Bitcoin is coming out, and he's going to make a $100,000 one.

Now that you know this thing can make money, there's no reason to miss out!

The reason why it is 100,000 US dollars is mainly because he is worried that he will absorb too much at once, which will affect the trend...

At this time, Chen Xi, who answered the phone behind him, hung up the phone, patted Shen Xudong, and said, "Xudong, your words about faith in the Zhejiang University Auditorium are on fire..."

"yes... How so? ”

"I'm basically praising you for speaking well... But there are also religious arguments..."

"Religious hair, it's all a bunch of sheepdogs... I don't believe in any God or Jesus, I only believe that man will conquer heaven..."

Speaking of this, Shen Xudong waved his hand: "I haven't opened it yet!" ”

"Open wide?"

Shen Xudong said word by word: "Long live the great unity of the world's nations!" ”

Chen Xi was stunned for a moment, and then gave a thumbs up: "You are still in a high realm!" ”

“…”

After a few casual words, he walked into the hall and was surrounded by a group of media.

They're still wondering which celebrity is coming...

As a result, they rushed over, to be precise, towards Shen Xudong...

"! What happened? ”

“… Oh, in addition to the popularity of faith, there is also the fact that you said 'will never cooperate with Andy Lau' is also on fire... Ask for more blessings! ”

revealed, Chen Xi pulled Gao and left...

Well, it's really gone!

……

"There are so many actors in the entertainment industry, why do I have to work with a certain actor?"

“… Does this thing have anything to do with the General Administration? I don't speak for the government... I'm just a private entrepreneur..."

In the face of the Hong Kong media's fire, Shen Xudong answered very calmly.

"Mr. Xiang of China Star said that you took the initiative to inquire about the release time of "Seeing the Dragon Unloading the Armor", and then worked overtime to launch "Zhao Zilong 2" at the same time, is it true?"

Shen Xudong shook his head decisively: "No... We definitely didn't work overtime, "Zhao Zilong 2" was completed in August last year, and we reserved most of the half a year for the later stage! ”

"That's when you took the initiative to adjust the schedule?"

"That's right, two movies with the same theme were released on the same day, and the publicity is a little better, in addition, for the audience, especially for the fans of the Three Kingdoms, it is tantamount to a gluttonous feast!"

“… You don't mean to kill them all? ”

Shen Xudong was furious, and his face was incredulous: "What are you kidding?" We are worried, "Seeing the Dragon Unloading the Armor" has the international director Li Rengang and the emperor superstar Andy Lau, the cost of 35 million US dollars, and the cost of "Hero" is only 30 million US dollars;

What about our "Zhao Zilong 2"? The director is the executive director of Amou, and the starring role is Nie Yuan, who is not familiar to movie audiences... Hit a stone with an egg! I can't tell the prophet..."

"But you've read the script!"

"Didn't they see the script? Why did the three major film companies invest in Media Asia, Huanyu and China Star? ”

Speaking of this, Shen Xudong asked rhetorically: "So, you mean that they are stupid and deserve to be beaten by my movie?" ”

“… Then you..."

"Come out and mix, you have to stand up when you are beaten," Shen Xu shook his head: "Times have long changed, producers and producers must first understand movies, not like before, find a few stars to sell films, besides, who in the current audience still watches movies specifically for a few Hong Kong stars?" Hollywood superstars can't catch up! ”

Yu Ji wanted to ask something, but Shen Xudong pushed them away: "Okay, my car is here, let's go first!" ”

Just as he was about to leave, a chubby man stopped him: "Mr. Shen, I just received the news that Andy Lau publicly apologized, saying that it was because he couldn't refuse the invitation of an acquaintance that he chose "Seeing the Dragon and Unloading the Armor"... What do you think? ”

"What the hell is going on with me? In order to let him star in "Zhao Zilong 2", we offered a salary of 30 million Hong Kong dollars, but he didn't agree, do you know how much pressure we are under to make "Zhao Zilong 2"? The overseas advance payment was all refunded, and we threw nearly 20 million US dollars ourselves... Now, what acquaintances are not good to refuse? What do you think I should be responding? ”

"So... Do you still insist on not cooperating with Andy Lau? ”

“… Have you read the Analects? Confucius's sentence 'How can you repay virtue?' Repay grievances with straightforwardness and repay virtue with virtue. Do you know what that means? ”

Leaving the last sentence, Shen Xudong got in the car...

……

Andy Lau is indeed a good person, promoting "Seeing the Dragon and Unloading the Armor", the media has made various accusations, and he generously admitted: "The market response of "Seeing the Dragon and Unloading the Armor" did not meet expectations... But there is no way, I also want to only pick good performances like Liang Chaowei, but he and I are really not the same person, some feelings can't be pushed away, and I have to go hard, and I always have to pay off the debt of affection! ”

"The investor approached me to act, thinking that the box office was guaranteed and would not lose too much. Because I still have to be the boss, I have to maintain the relationship, otherwise how can I attract investment? This is the case with "Seeing the Dragon Unloading the Armor"..."

"Director Li Rengang and I are old acquaintances, my 100th film "A Tiger" is directed by him, and I collaborated on the first "Zhao Zilong", then I will definitely continue to cooperate with him!"

"Then Xudong said that he would not cooperate again in the future, what do you say?"

Andy Lau waved his hand: "No, if there is a suitable script, I will definitely take the initiative to ask for it, and I will act if I don't want to be paid!" ”

Hehe...

There is a joke about Liu Tianwang making bad movies:

for there was always a gun pointed at his head;

for there is always a knife to his neck;

Because there's always someone...

It's all external factors, it's not that he wants to act, but he has to act!

Later, everyone followed suit, and as soon as they made a bad movie, they said that they were returning favors, and there are really many people in the entertainment industry who play this hand, the most typical is Brother Xiaoming!

It's a pity that Shen Xudong didn't eat this set at all...

In his opinion, except for a very few actors, no one is irreplaceable.

Andy Lau just happens to be among the alternatives...

So, he didn't care about his thoughts at all.

I don't have time to care, when I arrive in Hong Kong, the first thing I do is to go to the banquet - Yang Shoucheng's invitation, Jiang Zhiqiang!

The two bigwigs of Hong Kong Entertainment...
