Chu Xiangqian will not let his own 7 entertainment cities and let the people of Bai Rice Fish go to see the scene.

One cinema chain is a joint cinema chain, that is to say, 7 cinemas belong to Chu Xiangqian, and 4 of Baifanyu also belong to him.

There's no reason for the people of the rice fish to show themselves.

Second, he also holds the position of president of the Hong Kong Island Martial Arts Association, and there are many apprentices who learn kung fu.

As long as these people are paid, they are usually serious employees, and once someone makes trouble, everyone gathers together, and it is one or two hundred people.

And in order to keep his job, he fights, and he is not necessarily weaker than the full members of the association.

In addition to the vegetable market that will expand in the future, there will be three or four hundred people under his command, and they dare to fight and rush.

Not to mention ordinary clubs, even those big clubs, they don't dare to take the initiative to provoke.

Of course, with Chu Qianqian's connections, the big community will not provoke him.

Guarding against those little gangsters, the budding club, these people can definitely crush them.

——

At 9 o'clock in the evening, Chu Xiangqian took the box office table submitted by Wrinkle Huai.

I couldn't help but be overjoyed.

In addition to the average attendance rate of the two games in the morning was only 7.5%, the afternoon and evening games added up to 6, and the venue was basically full.

There are 3,700 seats in 11 cinemas, and the average ticket price is 1 yuan 1, which is equivalent to 4,070 yuan in revenue per game.

The whole day is equal to 7 full games, and the income is 35,000.

After being released for a month, it is indeed not difficult to achieve 700,000 or 800,000.

Try hard, it's really not impossible to break a million.

As soon as Chu Xiangqian finished reading it, Wrinkled Huai whispered, "Boss, the inspectors of several districts called me and said that it was the fee for the vendors who set up stalls outside the movie theater, do we collect it, or do they charge it?" ”

Chu Qianqian was stunned for a moment, walked to the window and looked out, and saw that there were already at least a dozen stalls on the street.

I was about to say that these people are also very hard, if the fees are counted.

But when the words came to his lips, he realized that if he protected these people and kept the number of stalls tomorrow, the number of stalls would skyrocket from a dozen to dozens.

And in the future, if you also open a commissary in your own movies, the price of soda, popcorn, and snacks will not be lower than that of these small vendors who don't need to rent a store.

"Tell the errand guy that they will collect the fee, but after collecting the money, at least they must maintain law and order. In addition, after closing the stalls every day, these vendors have to take the initiative to clean up the streets.

If they don't listen, call someone from the Department of Health. ”

Wrinkle nodded hurriedly, and guessed in his heart that the boss had realized that the stall and the commissary in the cinema were in competition.

Otherwise, why deliberately mention the Department of Health?

These stalls are indeed hard, but there is never a shortage of stalls that cut corners and fill up with poor ones.

Wrinkled Huai has had it herself, because of the experience of eating fish balls and making her stomach.

However, it is not realistic to drive out all the stalls.

People don't set up stalls in front of you, and they can't set up them fifty meters away?

Of course, fish balls, pastries and so on, popcorn, coke and the like, unless you rent a nearby store, otherwise as long as you mention it to the vendors outside, those fish balls, pastry vendors, they will drive away the vendors who buy coke and popcorn.

Then Wrinkle Huai reported, "Boss, I asked about the two karate martial arts gyms, and they were interested at first. But when you want to play 10 at a time, you immediately refuse. ”

Chu Xiangqian was stunned for a moment, no, he was a big one, and people refused to say it in the past.

If you refuse to do 10 in a dozen times, it will make people confused.

Wrinkled Huai said helplessly, "Boss, you have forgotten that last month, outside the backbone restaurant, fifteen or sixteen short mules with sticks were beaten, and now it has spread to all the boxing gyms and martial arts gyms on Hong Kong Island.

These people don't even dare to fight you in the ring now. ”

Chu Xiangqian shook his head helplessly after hearing this, and spent money to go to the United States to invite a boxing champion, and the cost was 50,000 or 100,000 US dollars.

This money is still people's appearance fee, and it will cost 200,000 or 400,000 yuan if it is converted into Hong Kong dollars.

Really invited people over, even if it is beneficial to the box office, it is equivalent to giving half of the money earned by a whole movie on Hong Kong Island to others.

It's a bit more than worth the loss.

I wanted to forget it, but I thought of Owen Davis who was locked up in a cell in the center of the village of Novice Village.

This ghost guy is nearly 2 meters tall, weighs 240, and has muscles in that body, just looking at it makes people feel oppressive.

And compared to the original tornado, Owen is taller and stronger.

If you go to the ring with him, you can definitely easily attract the attention of the whole Hong Kong.

And this ghost guy is in a coma and has entered the novice village.

If he is knocked out and released, he will only think that he was just imprisoned in an old mansion somewhere.

But this idea Chu Xiangqian only denied it in an instant.

Let's not say that I must torture him first, where to hide the money I have earned over the years.

There is also the three-storey restaurant in Central, which is worth 300,000 yuan to say the least.

And this ghost guy has his own source of goods, and there is a high probability that he has accomplices outside Hong Kong Island.

Let him go out to fight in the ring, even if he is killed on the spot, his accomplices, relatives, may come to Hong Kong Island to take revenge.

Chu Qian retracted his gaze looking at the street, turned his head to Wrinkle Huai and said, "The fight in the ring has been calculated in advance."

Now that you think about it, we can't make a big splash when every movie is released.

If you do too much of this, it will not be a good thing in the long run. ”

Wrinkles Huai thought about it carefully, and what the dark boss said was right.

The release of a movie does need publicity, but once or twice relying on the explosive news to attract attention can indeed make the first few movies explode more at the box office in the short term.

But if there is no explosion in the future, the audience will find it boring, which will definitely affect the company's future box office.

"Understood, I'm going to tell the Propaganda and Distribution Department that everything will be publicized according to the normal pattern in the past."

After Chu Xiangqian left the movie theater, he did not go to the Peninsula Hotel.

Margaret was so crazy last night that her body definitely couldn't bear her continuous tossing.

On the top floor of Fujin Garden in Wan Chai, Chu Xiangqian and Fei Fei Lou were together, soaking in the swimming pool on the attic, muttering and laughing, and doing something they liked to see.

By the time Fei Fei fell asleep tiredly, it was already past 11 o'clock in the evening.

Chu Xiangqian sent her to the bedroom, and he went back to the attic, lit a cigar, and looked condescendingly at the flow of people coming out of the Wan Chai cinema not far away.

Then look into the distance, Causeway Bay and Admiralty Cinema, although blocked by the building.

But three or four hundred people appeared on the street at the same time, and the crowd could still be easily seen.

Chu Xiangqian entered the novice village satisfied.

As for how to torture and interrogate, Chu Xiangqian experienced the matter of the capital forcing and interrogating the lurkers of the two island countries, not to mention that he was handy, and he was indeed experienced.

Owen Davidson only lasted for an hour, and then he couldn't bear to tell that he was hiding four bags of cash and flour in the cold storage in the back kitchen of the restaurant.

Chu Xiangqian thought about it carefully, it seems that there is indeed this plot in the movie.

But Chu Xiangqian didn't believe it, this ghost guy only had this money.

Pressed again, this time Owen left dozens of wounds on his body, and did not say where his other money was hidden.

Chu Xiangqian quickly realized that this ghost guy may have understood that no matter whether he said it or not, he definitely didn't want to live.

Even if he survives, he will end up crippled.

If you are crippled and have no money, it is really better to grit your teeth and not say anything, and just die.

Chu Xiangqian sneered, walked out of the center of the village, entered the medicine shop, and spent 100 silver coins to buy 10 meat buns.

Back in the center of the village, a meat bun was delivered, and his hands were tied to Owen's mouth on the wall.

This ghost guy now wishes that the meat bun is poisonous, and he eats a meat bun into his stomach as soon as he opens his mouth.

Chu Xiangqian didn't care what he thought, and fed three meat buns in a row.

I saw that the large and small wounds on Owen's body were slowly recovering.

And Owen also realized at this time that the pain in his body was decreasing.

When I looked down, I saw that several wounds on my chest that had been cut by the knife were slowly healing, and I was stunned.

The corners of Chu Xiangqian's mouth turned up, and he said with a smile, "After you recover from your injuries in a while, we can repeat the punishment just now." ”

I thought that the ghost guy would die and bite without saying anything, but he didn't want to, in the face of the miracle of automatic healing of the wound, Owen hurriedly shouted, "I say it all, I say it all."

I beg you to spare my soul after I die. ”

Chu Qianqian was stunned for a moment, and secretly said What do I want your soul to do?

It took several seconds to react, and this ghost guy mistakenly thought that he was a superpower in the East, or the existence of a devil or something.

And what Chu Xiangqian didn't expect was that this ghost guy relied on his infinite strength to hide all the money under the cold storage.

After receiving the money every month, you only need to pick up the huge refrigerator weighing 1 ton, 2 meters high and 2 meters wide, and you can hide the money in the secret compartment under the refrigerator.

Nima, this idea really suits someone of Owen's size and strength, and he doesn't even have to worry about someone stealing his money.

Chu Xiangqian whistled, and Da Zhuang and Red Niu immediately walked over and continued to stare at Owen with his hands tied to the wall.

Out of the center of the village, Chu Xiangqian's figure flashed and appeared on the open-air platform of the attic.

Then I came to the western restaurant in Central at night, looked around, and climbed all the way to the top of the third floor.

The hand pressed the door lock violently, interrupted the door lock in an instant, thought about it, and summoned Da Zhuang out of the novice village.

Let it go downstairs to investigate, and after making sure that there is no one, it slowly came to the back kitchen on the first floor.

First enter the cold storage, find the four handbags, and put them on the huge counter in the back kitchen.

The two bags were all 10 yuan and 20 yuan in cash, and the other two bags were flour bricks.

Two bags of flour Chu were thrown forward directly into the novice village, waiting for a while after 12 o'clock, the game was automatically refreshed and decomposed.

The other two bags of money, Chu counted forward, and one bag was exactly 500,000.

Two bags are 1 million.

Chu Xiangqian put the money into the warehouse of the novice village and walked to the two-meter-high and two-meter-wide refrigerator.

It's just that what embarrassed Chu Xiangqian is that his height is 1.85 meters, and his arm span is almost this data.

Owen is nearly two meters tall, and his arm span must exceed this number to hold a 2-meter-wide refrigerator.

But this was difficult for Chu Xiangqian, unplugged the power cord of the refrigerator, put his hand on the refrigerator, and with a movement of his mind, the 2-ton refrigerator was put into the carry-on storage compartment.

Then I saw that there were several floor tiles on the floor, and there were not a lot of gaps between them and the other floor tiles.

Pulling out a kitchen knife from the counter, it is easy to pry several floor tiles together.

Soon, the five bags that were exactly the same as the four bags they had just found were all placed on the desk by Chu Xiang.

When I opened the zipper of a bag, I saw that it was full of stacks of cash in waterproof plastic bags.

I thought that the 5 bags were all Hong Kong dollars, but I didn't expect that 2 bags were all US dollars.

That's $2 million, which is $8 million.

Of the other three bags, two were all Hong Kong dollars, and the last one contained four or five passports, two pistols, and a Thomson submachine gun, which was the standard submachine gun of the gangsters nicknamed 'Chicago Typewriters'.

There are also several magazines and two drums of 50 rounds, dozens of boxes of 45-caliber bullets and a dozen materials.

After Chu Xiangqian checked the submachine gun and made sure that it could be used normally, his attention was immediately attracted by these materials and passports.

Put 2 million US dollars and 2 million Hong Kong dollars into the carry-on storage compartment. Pick up your passport and open it.

immediately scolded.

I saw that it was actually a West German passport, and I hurriedly opened the remaining 4 passports, which were the passports of Italy, East Germany, Finland and Switzerland.

Chu Xiangqian understood now, this ghost guy is 100% an agent, and there is a high probability that he is a double-faced agent.

They will hide on Hong Kong Island, or they will offend someone and have to take refuge on Hong Kong Island.

Or, it's to perform some task.

But if you think about it, the latter is more likely.

Because if I remember correctly, Owen is still a philanthropist in the movie, not only interviewed by the newspaper, but also reported in the newspaper.

If he offends someone, then his photo report is looking for death.

Hurriedly put down the 5 passports, picked up the stacks of materials and looked at them.

After a while, after Chu Xiangqian finished reading it, he immediately realized that Mi Guoyan had sent Owen over in advance to investigate the number of ships, garrisons, and combat effectiveness of the baby Guoyan on Hong Kong Island.

How many cargo ships are docked at the port and what is the capacity each month.

By the way, check the quantity and variety of imported and exported goods every month.

This Nima should want to investigate whether Hong Kong Island can be used as a cargo transit station when the United States attacks Yuenan.

Chu Xiangqian's first thought was to hand over these materials to the mainland along with Owen Davidson.

But after thinking about it, it was no problem to hand over the information to Qian Guotai, but people had to be killed directly.

Otherwise, Owen will become a bargaining chip for the exchange staff.

If this ghost is still alive, he will inevitably be exposed.

even made a fuss about him to sow discord between the United States and the infant country.

In the face of long-term interests and national interests, Chu Xiangqian knows very well that he is not so important.

Thinking of this, Chu Xiangqian didn't even plan to hand over the information.

Instead, find a typewriter, type it by hand, copy it, and then hand it over to Qian Guotai.

As for whether the boss believes it or not, Chu Xiangqian doesn't care.

Put all the bags in the carry-on compartment, put the bricks back, and put the refrigerator back in place.

Da Zhuang also took back the novice village.

After inspecting the back kitchen and erasing the traces of himself and Da Zhuang, Chu Xiangqian came to the balcony on the third floor of the restaurant, and tonight's harvest was actually not small.

HK$3 million, US$2 million, a total of 11 million in cash.

And this is still the money that Owen Davis secretly hid after handing over a part of the benefits to the Zhongqing Bureau.
