169 Widows

"Ah Hao is going to get married?" He Dingxian was a little surprised and asked, "Brother Nineteen's widow, Brother Nineteen has so many widows, which one is marrying?" ”

Bai Fanyu said: "Sixth aunt, Liu Peony, a red card for singing in Paramount before. Five years ago, I followed Brother Chen Nineteen, and I have been taking care of the cigarette stall business for Brother Nineteen, and I am considered a member of the community. ”

Generally, the family members of bigwigs rarely join the club, and once they join the club, they must seek power.

He Dingxian didn't expect that Wu Shihao would mix with widows, but if he thought about it carefully, if the peony had a little power in Chao Yiyong, it would be of great help to Wu Shihao.

He frowned and asked, "This aunt eats a lot in the club?" ”

"I used to be trusted by Brother Nineteen, and I helped Brother Nineteen manage the accounts of the club as my aunt's wife." Bai Fanyu pondered: "If you want to talk about rights, it's not that big, but as the only aunt and wife of Brother Nineteen in the community, everyone respects three points." ”

Chen Shijiu's earliest wife has long passed away, and the wives of several aunts he married later take money to play cards all day long, and no one wants to join the club to lick blood.

On the contrary, the latest-married aunt wife is the youngest and the most ambitious.

Maybe he took a fancy to Chen Shijiu's high status in the rivers and lakes, he was old, and he came for the inheritance.

He Dingxian was silent: "If you want to take power smoothly, do you have to talk about cooperation with her?" ”

Bai Fanyu nodded: "If you don't give her benefits, you can't take her rights, otherwise outsiders will scold me for bullying orphans and widows, this is a violation of the thirty-six oaths of Hongmen, and it must not be done." ”

"In other words, in addition to handing over the accounts, she will definitely continue to manage the cigarette stall?" He Dingxian felt that something was wrong, and said in a deep voice: "This is the Yiqun will manage the cigarette stall of Chao Yiyong, which means that Yiqun has got the cigarette card!" ”

There was a hint of jealousy in his heart.

Bai Fanyu said: "Actually, if she doesn't get together with Ah Hao, we can slowly take back the cigarette stall, but Ah Hao wants to marry a widow."

One is famous, the other is real, and the virtual name is supported by strength, which is really fun.

He Dingxian drank tea and said broadly: "It's not good for me to talk about this matter, men love women, it's a matter of course, and there is no such thing as keeping festivals now." What's more, Ah Hao is willing to accept the widow of Brother Nineteen, and everyone will only think that Ah Hao is angry. ”

If Ah Hao had been here for the cigarette stall, then things would have been far from so simple.

"However, my brother is planning to get married, I can always care about a few words, and ask Ah Hao when the time comes." He Dingxian said.

Bai Fanyu said loudly: "Okay, in addition, if Yiqun wants to merge into Chao Yiyong, I may not be able to stop, if I oppose it with all my might, it seems that I want to deliberately exclude Ah Hao, and my reputation is not good." ”

He was completely able to guess Mr. He's thoughts, He Sheng definitely didn't want Yiqun to merge into Chao Yiyong, and it was easier for the two prefixes to be in charge separately.

If it is merged into one word, He Dingxian will not be able to point fingers at Yiqun, of course, the tide word must have to do things for him, but whether it can develop into what he wants is hanging.

Therefore, after he took the position, he tried to stop the matter of merging Yiqun into Chao Yiyong, but the resistance he encountered was greater than expected, and many of his uncles felt that accepting Yiqun could not only strengthen the strength of the community, but also give a handful of scenery and go to bad luck.

Moreover, accepting Yiqun can also show the courage of Chao Yiyong to recruit fellow villagers.

He Dingxian understood in his heart, and said with a smile: "I think you are afraid of others gossiping, and you also like peonies, and you want to grab food with the offspring with a handful of old bones, right?" ”

"Hahaha." Bai Fanyu laughed out loud when he heard this, not caring at all that his daughter was by his side.

"If you can't stop, you don't have to stop, Yiqun wants to merge into Chao Yiyong, Ah Hao didn't discuss it with me at all." He Dingxian said loudly: "As the speaker of the prefix, he can decide everything about the prefix, and I, as the boss of the prefix, can only decide whether to support it or not." ”

Two days later.

Central District, Hollywood Road.

Tea Restaurant.

He Dingxian sat behind the table, holding the menu in his hand, and asked aloud, "Ah Hao, what to eat?" ”

Wu Shihao was wearing a white shirt, sitting opposite, and his words were refreshing: "It's the same as before." ”

"One pork chop rice, one roast goose rice, and two cups of frozen lemon tea." He Dingxian put the menu aside, finished speaking, and immediately a waiter repeated it, wrote a list and handed it to the kitchen.

Wu Shihao drank the frozen lemon tea sent from his mouth, adjusted his posture, sat up straight and said, "Brother Xian, do you have anything to help?" ”

"Nope."

He Dingxian stirred the drink with a straw leisurely, and his tone was relaxed: "No matter how delicious the fruit is, you will get tired of eating too much. ”

"Hey, hey."

Wu Shihao smiled happily and said happily: "Okay! ”

He Dingxian saw the two meals coming up and asked, "Uncle Bai told me, you are about to get married?" ”

Wu Shihao looked like a shy little boy, smiled embarrassedly, and said implicitly: "Yes, my wife is beautiful and a good person, so it's my blessing to be able to take a fancy to me." ”

"Congratulations." He Dingxian said with a smile: "I have no opinion on you marrying the widow of Brother Nineteen, but there are some things that I have to talk about in advance." ”

Wu Shihao nodded: "Don't worry, Brother Xian, Yiqun will definitely not sell powder and big cigarettes,"

He Dingxian shook his head: "It's not these, I've already talked about these things, so there's no need to talk about it, Yiqun merged into Chao Yiyong, it is also your own choice as a museum, the two Chao prefixes are together, I have no reason to refuse." ”

"I want to ask you one thing, did you kill Chen Shijiu."

Wu Shihao's expression was slightly stunned, there was no surprise in his eyes, it was not like he didn't guess, but he didn't expect the big boss to speak so directly, and quickly shook his head: "No!" ”

"Brother Xian, if you suspect that I am harming Brother Nineteen for the sake of a woman, I will vouch for my life, I didn't know Peony before this, it was at the funeral that I saw Peony for the first time." Wu Shihao's tone was firm and his expression was resolute: "If you want to suspect me for power, then Chao Yiyong has many uncles who can testify for me." ”

"The price that Brother Nineteen gave Yiqun to merge into Chao Yiyong is to let me sit in the hall next time!"

"That's a licensed society in Hong Kong, the first word of the Chaoshan Gang, and the Chao Yiyong of hundreds of thousands of members!"

Wu Shihao said: "What price is bigger than this!" ”

He Dingxian was thinking: TMD, hook up together at the funeral? Someone else just died of her husband, what are you doing! Hit the streets!

He said after a while: "Okay, I'll believe what you say, the case is all done by Ah Weng, remember to invite me when you get married." ”

Wu Shihao sighed with relief: "Definitely, big guy." ”

However, although Wu Shihao and Peony are together, it is obvious that the two will not get married so soon, because the two are also a cooperative relationship, and the union of interests is far more effective than a marriage contract, as long as the two stand together and get married, it doesn't matter if they get married or not.

After He Dingxian sent Wu Shihao away, he felt that Ah Hao was far from being able to control it at the beginning, and a little power before could make him die.

Now he has power in his hands, ambition in his heart, intentionally or not, and in his own way.

"Whew." Wu Shihao got into the rickshaw, let out a long breath, and the whole person became relaxed, the horse boy who pulled the cart was his subordinate Ah Ming, only to hear Ah Ming ask: "Brother Hao, what did the big boss say?" ”

"Nothing." Wu Shihao revealed the matter lightly, he didn't say it, but he understood in his heart: "Brother Xian already doubts me." ”

In the middle of the year, the Hong Kong Island film industry quietly killed a dark horse.

"Lu Yuntao", a Nanyang businessman from Singapore, came to Hong Kong Island and established Hong Kong Island International Film Company, intending to shoot Chinese films in Hong Kong.

The arrival of this dark horse did not attract the attention of the leftist film companies that were struggling with ideology, but it attracted the strong attention of the Oriental Film Company and the Shaw Brothers & Sons Company.

Because "Lu Yuntao" is not a nobody, but the founder of Singapore's "International Film Distribution Company", specializing in the distribution business of Chinese films in Nanyang, and is the main opponent of Nanyang's "Shaw Brothers Company".

Compared with the head of the Shaw Brothers "Shao Yifu", Lu Yuntao is a real junior, but Lu Yuntao was born in a wealthy family in Nanyang, has received a good higher education, art education, the original intention of making movies stems from the hobby of photography, after the establishment of a distribution company, it is the only company in Nanyang that will import art films, relying on the sword to go sideways, occupying a certain market in Nanyang, and also investing in film shooting on Taiwan Island.

Zou Huaiwen, under the suggestion of the big boss, deliberately paid attention to the Shaw Brothers father and son company, and naturally paid attention to the "international film distribution company" in Nanyang, and then received the news that Lu Yuntao had established a branch on Hong Kong Island.

He Dingxian only felt that the name of the person had an impression when he received the news, but he didn't remember which big director or which film company he was, and when he thought of Shao Yifu, he suddenly remembered that he had seen Lu Yuntao's name in Shao Yifu's biography.

This Mr. Lu is Shao Yifu's first real opponent in the years of the film market, relying on the spirit of "high quality, big investment, and excellence", he once beat the "short, flat and fast" and "high turnover" strategy of Shaw Brothers to a corner, and he couldn't stand up, because, after all, film is a kind of cultural creation, and the quality is obvious to all.

Lu Yuntao was born in a wealthy merchant family in Nanyang, whether it is life or business, he has never been short of money, so he can have the heart to take the route of "excellence", which inadvertently becomes a major obstacle to the Shaw Brothers film road.

In two years, Lu Yuntao will acquire the "Yonghua Studio" on the verge of bankruptcy and set up the "International Electric Pictures" to open up a new situation for the smoky Hong Kong Island film market.

The reason why his reputation is not obvious is that when he was at the peak of his career, he and his family suffered a plane crash and died, and "International Electric" reorganized the "Cathay Pacific Organization" and inherited the management by his wife and brother.

It is commonly known as dying too early.

When He Dingxian saw Lu Yuntao coming to Hong Kong, he understood: "Shao Yifu is also coming soon." ”

However, he is now ignoring the twist that is brewing in the film market, and is instead talking to Fok Guantai about a more urgent matter, as the British government in Hong Kong has tightened the ban on shipping due to the sharp turn of the situation on the peninsula by the ghost coalition forces.

Huo Guantai had a batch of cotton seized by the customs, and it was detained in the ghost warehouse and couldn't be withdrawn!
