Chapter 57: I want to be a Shaw Brothers pick-up man, wildfire burns disrespectful (two in one)
An hour later, Hui Ka-chun went to the breakfast room across the street from the Kowloon General Administration to meet Xia Mingcheng.
"Xu sir's side." Xia Mingcheng, who was diagonally facing the main entrance, saw Xu Jiajun first, and immediately stood up and waved.
Xu Jiajun nodded and walked over.
Without waiting for Xu Jiajun to get closer, the middle-aged woman sitting opposite Xia Mingcheng hurriedly took two steps forward and stuffed a plastic bag into his arms: "Xu sir, this is my husband asked me to hand it over to you, my husband has always had a stomach problem, and I have to go back to make breakfast for him." ”
After speaking, without waiting for Xu Jiajun to speak, he looked panicked and hurriedly trotted out of the restaurant.
"I ordered something for her and didn't eat, so I remembered to rush back to cook for her boss." Xia Mingcheng looked at Xu Jiajun, who was a little confused, smiled and explained.
Xu Jiajun said, while opening the plastic bag in his hand: "Being so concerned by his own maid shows that this boss is good to people." ”
After all, looking at the woman's expression, it was obvious that she was in a hurry to go back out of concern, not fear.
"Tapes?" Xia Mingcheng looked at the things in his hand and frowned, then glanced at his watch and said with a smile: "I'll go to work first, don't delay your vacation today, sir, by the way, remember to buy an order for me when you leave, Thank you, sir." ”
"Pick, okay, I'm wronged." Xu Jiajun smiled dumbly, waved his hand and signaled him to hurry up.
After Xia Mingcheng left, Xu Jiajun looked at the tape in his hand with a pensive expression, returned to the car after settling the account, and inserted the tape into the car tape machine.
A sound sounded, followed by a familiar voice: "My name is Liu Zhengyuan, I am currently the deputy director of the Economic Decision Division of the Political Department of Xiangjiang, and I am also an official member of the Legislative Council, Xu Jiajun, when you hear this recording, I am already dead......
Hearing this, Xu Jiajun was a little stunned, Liu Zhengyuan's death was expected by him, because this was what he promoted, but why did he keep a recording for himself?
It can't be a video tape of Sadako, after listening to this recording, you will be haunted by Liu Zhengyuan's grievances.
As the recording continued, Liu Zhengyuan's voice went through several ups and downs, sometimes resentful, sometimes unwilling, sometimes remorseful, sometimes self-deprecating, and at the end it was as calm as water.
The recording is long.
After listening to the entire recording, Xu Jiajun let out a sigh of relief, and Liu Zhengyuan reported in detail the illegal acts of several officials in the political secretary, including his boss Brian.
For example, Brian has taken bribes many times, forcibly occupied the wives and daughters of his subordinates, violated female students, injured people and disabled people, and so on.
At this moment, Xu Jiajun felt very wonderful in his heart.
The character he created who is not afraid of power and upholds justice has actually been recognized by his enemies.
You can't let him down, can you?
In the face of the Chinese doing evil, he always strikes hard, and he can't turn a blind eye to the evil in the face of ghosts, right?
Of course, it has to be treated equally.
He wasn't racist.
The Qingming Festival is coming, every household sweeps the tomb to pay tribute to their relatives, and Brian's family can't even sweep the tomb during the Qingming Festival, how lonely it is.
So Xu Jiajun decided to send Brian to be buried before Qingming next month, so that his family could have more sense of participation in the festival, celebrate Qingming and have a happy family.
"After all, Qingming Festival is one of the four traditional festivals in my country, and it can be regarded as helping ghosts follow the customs."
Then he kicked the throttle and drove towards Shaw Brothers.
Recordings alone cannot be used as evidence, so to investigate Brian still needs to take a long-term view, and can't be in a hurry, so go to Shaw Brothers first to talk about asking Dilong to make a film.
At this time, Shao Yifu was worried about Fang Yihua in the office, sighed and said: "The modern local guy deliberately avoided the happy ghost and the junior brother, but I didn't expect the box office to be more than 2 million in half a month, and I am afraid that it will eventually stop at about 3 million when the painting is made." ”
The modern local guy is starring the popular actress Jing Li and the singer Lin Zishen, Shao Yifu has high hopes for the box office, otherwise it would not be released during the Spring Festival.
The original space-time modern local guy finally won the box office of 4.1 million, becoming the fifth box office of the year in 1980.
But now there is the younger brother of the popular superstar Cheng Long, and then there is Xu Jiajun, Zhao Yazhi, and Huang Hanwei who contributed the happy ghost of the year.
The attendance rate of modern local guys is naturally low.
Especially after watching the happy ghost and his junior brother go out and break 10 million box office one after another the day before yesterday, Shao Yifu became even more depressed, and he had no appetite for eating.
Watch them make money.
It felt worse than losing money.
"Sixth brother, if you want me to watch it, it's better to focus on TV, with the popularity of TV, the future is the world of TV after all." Fang Yihua stood behind Shao Yifu and helped him massage while persuading.
Shao Yifu just wanted to speak, the phone on the desk rang, he picked it up casually and answered, and then raised his eyebrows and thought he had heard it wrong: "Xu Jiajun? ”
Fang Yihua behind him was stunned.
"You let him come up." After hanging up the phone, Shao Yifu said to Yihua: "Xu Jiajun actually came to see me, what do you say he is here for?" ”
Fang Yihua shook his head.
After a while, Shao Yifu's secretary took Xu Jiajun into the office, and Xu Jiajun said with a smile: "Sixth uncle, I have admired the name for a long time, I can't hide it, I grew up watching Shaw Brothers movies, and today I finally have the honor to meet you in person." ”
"And this must be the sixth uncle's virtuous assistant Ms. Fang, I often hear my sister talk about you."
Fang Yihua was originally a Nanyang singer, and became Shao Yifu's lover at the age of 18.
The two are a match made in heaven.
Starting this year, at her suggestion, Shao Yifu will shift his focus to TV stations, and Shaw Brothers Pictures will reduce production year by year until it completely stops filming five years later.
And when the time comes, Xu Jiajun wants to take over the Shaw Brothers' cinema line, so his attitude at this time is very humble.
"Xu Sir's name is also like thunder." Shao Yifu ordered the newspaper on the table this morning, and then stretched out his hand and gestured: "Please take a seat, by the way, I haven't congratulated Sir Xu on breaking 10 million at the box office and setting a record for the box office in Xiangjiang City, which is really terrifying." ”
"Uncle Sixth is too polite, I'm a junior, just call me Ah Jun." Xu Jiajun smiled slightly after sitting down, and exchanged a few words of greeting with Shao Yifu before getting to the point: "Don't hide it from Uncle Six, I came this time to borrow Brother Di Long to shoot the next new drama." ”
"Use my people to make money for you, you have a good calculation." Xu Jiajun's modesty made Shao Yifu have a good impression of him, and he did not have the arrogance he expected, he said jokingly: "It's not impossible to borrow people, how about Ah Jun's next drama be screened in Shaw Brothers Cinemas?" Shaw people are whatever you want. ”
"Thank you Uncle Sixth for your love, but I have a contract with Lisheng." Xu Jiajun pretended to regret a nonsense, and half-jokingly: "Of course, then again, if Shaw Brothers can co-star with Lisheng, it is not without a chance to cooperate." ”
Shao Yifu shook his head and didn't answer.
The company's actors can cooperate with each other, and even the director can make films for others under a pseudonym, but it is a fool's dream to expect the theater chain to cooperate.
He wouldn't agree, and neither would Lei Juekun.
"Sixth uncle, Brother Di Long was popular in the seventies, but if you don't like to hear it, the response to the drama in the past year has been mediocre, why don't you lend it to me? How can I use Shaw Brothers actors to make money, I am obviously using my own drama to praise Shaw Brothers actors! ”
"You're not a little angry." Shao Yifu couldn't help but snort when he heard this, and thought that every drama could break 10 million? But anyway, Di Long took over the play to make money for the Shaw Brothers, so he said: "For the sake of your sincerity in coming to the door in person, I agreed, you go and talk to Ah Long, it's no problem to convince him." ”
Di Long's popularity has indeed declined recently, and Xu Jiajun is the name of a box office producer with tens of millions of dollars, and the cooperation between the two will help Di Long's popularity rebound.
………………
Oriental Daily, Chairman's Office.
Ma Chengkun has been in a very good mood recently, and after tasting the sweetness of Xu Jiajun, Oriental Daily has mastered the traffic password, and plans to compete with major newspaper groups such as Ming Pao in the future.
Oriental Daily will create another glory in his hands!
"Bang!"
The office door suddenly opened, and Ma Chengkun, who was self-absorbed on the sofa, was startled, and looked up to see that it was Ma Tingqiang who rushed in.
"Ah Qiang, what's going on, is the sky falling?" Ma Chengkun asked angrily.
Ma Tingqiang is Ma Chengkun's cousin, in charge of the external affairs of Oriental Daily, and the public's deepest impression of him is probably that he later married actress Li Kai.
Ma Tingqiang was short of breath, wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "The printing house was set on fire." ”
"What!" Ma Chengkun got up instantly and blurted out: "Has the fire been extinguished?" How much of the machine material burned out? Who did this to you? Did anyone die? ”
"The whole factory burned down." Ma Tingqiang shook his head, and after taking a breath, he added angrily and happily: "No one was injured, the old boy who set the fire drove people out first and then set the fire." ”
This is the greatest humiliation for them!
The fair and honest means that it is to you.
"It's just lawless!" Ma Chengkun was also so angry that he smashed his fist on the table, his face twitched slightly: "Which club is so short-sighted!" ”
You must know that their father who escaped is Lao Fu's boss, and he has a lot of connections on Xiangjiang Road, and the size of Oriental Daily is here, so there is generally no club that dares to come to them for trouble.
"Sheng and Spicy Ginger's people, the other party also said that we should be respectful, don't write the news nonsense." Ma Tingqiang's voice fell, grabbed a newspaper on the table and said viciously: "Needless to say, it must have been instigated by the surname Xu, this bastard, killing people and setting fires, all fucking done, is it a police or a bandit!" ”
Their old beans sold hundreds of tons of flour, creating a family business for them to enjoy the fruits, their family can bully others, but when it is their turn to be bullied, they will break the defense.
Hearing that it was Xu Jiajun, the anger in Ma Chengkun's heart gradually subsided, not because he knew that he was wrong, but because he knew that he had no choice, could he still take revenge on him?
His father is famous on the road, but people go to tea and cool, Fu Yixing just planted a Chaozhou male, who dares to offend Xu Jiajun for them? Unless you pay a lot of money.
But it's not necessary.
"Brother, let's report this matter ......" Ma Tingqiang is younger, so he doesn't think much about the consequences.
He only wants to take revenge on Xu Jiajun now.
This guy is simply unreasonable, a little thing can make people set fire, can't you talk to them first?
Before he could finish speaking, Ma Chengkun interrupted him coldly: "What about after the newspaper?" Do you have witnesses or physical evidence? Believe it or not, while suing us for slander, he let people continue to burn our factory? ”
"What then?" Ma Tingqiang asked rhetorically.
"I won't write about him in the future." Ma Chengkun held back his anger and said the most rational way to deal with it: "Ask Lao Fu's uncle to come forward and ask him out to talk, make amends in person and turn the page on this matter first, it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, he is so arrogant, sooner or later he will be in trouble!" ”
This revenge is not unavenged, the time has not yet come.
"Damn, I'll have to let him go first." Ma Tingqiang slammed his fist on the desk with reluctance.
Ma Chengkun sighed: "It is said to the outside world that the factory caught fire due to improper operation, otherwise other newspapers would have written that we were retaliated against for participating in the community struggle because of the background of the Black Society, and the factory was set on fire." ”
………………
Xu Jiajun didn't know anything about the fire in the factory of Oriental Daily, and he was helping Guan Jiahui extinguish the fire.
His grace of dripping water, Guan Jiahui reciprocates with springs.
After the incident, Guan Jiahui's bones were crispy, and she collapsed on the bed weakly, her pretty face was red and amorous.
After a while, she finally recovered a little, only to find that Xu Jiajun was smoking a cigarette, frowning, and showing a worried look.
"Brother Jun, what's wrong with you, you're not happy with me?" Guan Jiahui climbed into his arms, resting her chin on his chest, looking up at him.
Xu Jiajun gently stroked her head, as if he was petting a cat, sighed and said, "I'm worried that the planned new drama won't be filmed." ”
"Ahh Why? Guan Jiahui was anxious when she heard this, and sat up directly, if there was no this one, what would the heroine of her sequel do.
She has read the script and feels that there is a lot of hope for the hero's true colors, and the sequel will definitely be even more popular, she still wants to be an instant hit, how can she say that if she doesn't shoot it, she won't shoot it.
Xu Jiajun was silent and did not speak.
Guan Jiahui pouted, pulled Xu Jiajun's arm and shook it coquettishly: "Brother Jun, you obviously promised others, then you have to do what you say~"
"You're really good at clipping." Listening to the clip sound made by Guan Jiahui deliberately pinching her throat, Xu Jiajun's goosebumps rose, and it was so sweet that he became diabetic.
Guan Jiahui's face turned red: "It's not that you teach well, hum, bad guy, teach others all this." ”
"Ahem, I'm talking about your throat." Seeing that she had misunderstood, Xu Jiajun explained with a tug of the corners of his mouth.
Guan Jiahui's face turned even redder, and she glared at him with anger and anger: "You still say, hum~"
Xu Jiajun: "............"
The last time he was so speechless was the last time.
"Brother Jun, do you want to think of a way~" Seeing that Xu Jiajun stopped talking again, Guan Jiahui began to be coquettish again.
Xu Jiajun pretended to be silent for a moment, and then said: "I said that I can't shoot, just because I lack funds in my hands at present, your father should have money, right?" Ask him to borrow some and add it, and return it to him when I get the happy ghost account, so that the new drama can continue to be filmed. ”
Pay back? It is impossible to repay the money!
At most, pay his father-in-law a salary and ask him to work for himself, let him work overtime, and strive to earn back the money he owes him as soon as possible, and people have to rely on themselves!
"Borrowing money from my dad?" When Guan Jiahui heard this, she immediately hesitated, and pursed her lips: "I don't know how much money he has, and he doesn't borrow it?" ”
"Then it's up to you." Xu Jiajun hugged her and coaxed: "Your father is also constantly losing money in business with money, and if it goes on like this, sooner or later he will lose nothing, so it is better to lend it to me." In addition, he has to go to work when he has no money, I asked him to come to my company as the manager of the artist department, which is also for the good of our father, so that he can settle down, what do you say? ”
Guan Jiahui thinks it makes sense, she is borrowing money and not giving it away for nothing, and her old bean really has no business talent and likes to toss around, and sooner or later she will lose all her family money.
"I pay my dad a high salary, which is twice the salary of the industry." Xu Jiajun said generously.
Guan Jiahui suddenly raised her eyebrows, feeling that she was taken seriously: "Brother Jun, you are so good to me." ”
For his own sake, he was even willing to give his old bean double salary, so could he be bad to himself in the future?
"Fool, you are my woman, who am I good to be good to you and good to you?" Xu Jiajun gently pinched her face, and said, "Then ...... our dad over there"
Everything is ready, and the father-in-law has the funds in place.
"Leave it to me! I have a way! Guan Jiahui smiled slyly and patted her chest confidently.
She is very confident in this regard.
