    Brother Dong, I just had a late-night snack with Brother Fa, and happened to see your Mercedes-Benz here, so I came over to take a look. I didn't expect you were really here.  Johnnie To was obviously very excited to see Wang Dong. During this period, "Legend of the Condor Heroes" he filmed was very popular and was highly praised by TVB. It was the time when he was very proud of himself.  This also wipes out Johnnie To's failure in movies, and at the same time greatly improves his status in TVB.  For this, he was also very grateful to Wang Dong.  If it weren't for Wang Dong's recommendation, he wouldn't have had the opportunity to direct this classic TV series.  This movie not only made Weng Meiling famous, but also brought Johnnie To into the ranks of first-line directors.  In the 1980s in Hong Kong, although movies were booming, the television industry was also developing very rapidly. At least at this time, competition between TVB and ATV was fierce, and classic TV series were constantly released. Unlike in later generations, TVB only promoted stupid dramas.  Johnnie To also established his basic skills through training at TVB before entering the Hong Kong film industry.  At this time, Johnnie To had not yet realized his own film style, and was more inclined to follow the crowd.  But his directing skills are also quite good.  I was finishing filming a movie and happened to run into Adu, so I had a meal with him.  By the way, I would also like to congratulate you on the box office of "Dao Ma Dan" reaching 30 million yuan. You have become the first director in Hong Kong with more than 100 million yuan.  Zhou Runfa was as gentle as jade, his smile showed off his bright smile, and he also joked with Wang Dong.  Haha, let¡¯s go sit at the bar next to us for a while. We haven¡¯t seen you for a long time. Just in time to have a few drinks!  Wang Dong was also very happy to see Du Qifeng and Zhou Runfa.  And seeing Zhou Runfa, Wang Dong also thought of the movie he was about to shoot, and wanted to have a good talk with Zhou Runfa about it.  At the very least, the schedule should be free.  You must know that after "A Better Tomorrow" and "Prison", Chow Yun-fat is definitely the first male star among the well-deserved Hong Kong male stars.  Film appointments keep coming and the schedule is full.  Naturally, Wang Dong hoped that Zhou Run would free up time to film his upcoming film "God of Gamblers".  Without Zhou Runfa, "God of Gamblers" would not be the God of Gamblers.  The group of people drove to Lan Kwai Fong. At this time, Lan Kwai Fong was also bustling with entertainment and entertainment.  At this time, Lan Kwai Fong was a few years earlier than in the previous life.  Wang Dongsheng and Zhiwen developed Lan Kwai Fong, which made the conditions even more popular and became the favorite of urban white-collar workers.  It has also become a high-end bar and nightclub.  Wow, Brother Dong, they say you own several Lan Kwai Fong stores, it seems you are really wealthy.  I've been to Lan Kwai Fong before but I couldn't find a place because it was so popular.  Johnnie To shook his head and sighed as he looked at the sexy urban girls around him who kept dancing with their graceful figures.  ??You stick, the place you just came to is also the most luxurious and largest nightclub in Hong Kong that is under construction.  I said you should be more careful Sha Biao and Johnnie To are also very close. They also laid a good foundation for their friendship when they were filming "Shaolin Temple".  Are there nightclubs on the sixth floor?  It¡¯s incredible. I think this will really threaten the Chinese royal palace and the richest people.  Du Qifeng sighed with a sigh on his face, but he didn't care too much about Sha Biao's disdain. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Indeed.  ¡± Zhou Runfa also nodded. Wang Dong is becoming more and more popular now. Even their old friends lament that Wang Dong is getting bigger and bigger. Zhou Runfa also laments that Wang Dong is definitely a rare thing and he cherishes this friend very much.  The relationship between the two of them has long been inseparable. It won¡¯t be affected by these things. Brother Fa, you have some spare money anyway. I think you might as well invest a few million in it. Just a few million more for decoration.  He looked at Zhou Runfa with a smile on his face and said, "How many million? I only have more than four million in savings. This little money is a drop in the bucket" Zhou Runfa shook his head and said with a wry smile.  The difference of several million for decoration was laughed off by everyone. It was just a step forward for Chow Yun-fat. This also shows that Wang Dong is attentive to his friends. Then you should invest six million and treat it as an investment.  "Don't worry, I will give you a certain amount of shares and I will never let you suffer." "I know, but the problem is that my current deposit is only four million Of course Zhou Runfa knows that Wang Dong will not let himself suffer."  Even Zhou Runfa knew that Wang Dong would not only not let himself suffer, but would also give him great advantages.  Knowing Wang Dong's character, how could Zhou Runfa not know about it?  ¡°Haha, it¡¯s okay, I¡¯ll have another two million in income soon.  I will give you 8% of the shares, and then you will wait for annual dividends.  It also saves money depreciated in the bank.  Never leave your money in the bank, it will simply depreciate.  Might as well buy some insurance.  "Wang Dong said with a smile: Your four million plus two million, the total of six million is your investment, and you will become the third largest shareholder of the nightclub." "What two million?"  YouzhouHe looked at Wang Dong in surprise, confused and quite puzzled.  I don¡¯t know what Wang Dong¡¯s words mean. ??????????????????????????? I have a new film about to be shot, and I would like to invite you to be the protagonist of the film. The two million is the salary for you.  Don't refuse, your worth is definitely worth this price now, even mine is slightly lower.  Otherwise, I'm afraid Mrs. Chen will settle a score with me.  When Wang Dong mentioned Mrs. Chen, Zhou Runfa also smiled.  Although Chen Shufen is the general manager of New Dream, Wang Dong is the boss.  But Chen Shufen can be said to distinguish between public and private matters.  Wang Dong also has to pay for using the company's artists.  In Chen Shufen's case, this is an essential distinction for a mature company.  Only in this way can it be clear and formal.  During this period, Chen Shufen also signed bad film contracts and advertisements for her artists, and every time she strived for the maximum profit for the artists.  This also makes New Dreams have a very good reputation among artists.  Won the favor of many celebrities.  Zhou Runfa is also a beneficiary.  Otherwise, he might not have been able to save four million in the past.  You must know that the agency is quite harsh on artists, and it is far less humane than New Dreams.  It can be said that New Dream has also broken the shackles of the market. Now many celebrities are actively joining New Dream.  Brother Dong, are you going to start filming a movie?  What kind of movie is it?  If you work with Fa Ge, then this movie will definitely break records again.  You don¡¯t know, I think many movie fans are looking forward to it as soon as I tell you that the two of you are together.  Golden partners, you two are a box office guarantee.  " Upon hearing that Wang Dong invited Zhou Runfa to shoot a new movie, Du Qifeng couldn't help but sigh. He bit his cigar and looked at Wang Dong with excitement. " Du Qifeng also likes cigars. At this point, Wang Dong has a common hobby with him.  . ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? The fact that he agreed directly showed the trust between the two of them. In fact, in Chow Yun-fat's heart, he always regarded Wang Dong as his noble person and benefactor, not to mention that Wang Dong's movies made him enjoy his performance.  If Wang Dong asked, Zhou Runfa wouldn¡¯t agree. ¡°Brother Fa, what if Brother Dong asked you to play a bad guy? That would ruin your image!¡± Fatty Cheng joked:  If you play a perverted gangster or something, you won¡¯t make your fans cry to death" Haha, if I really play these roles, it¡¯s not a bad idea.  If A Dong thinks that I am suitable, I will be obliged to do so.  As for the perverted gangsters, it seems that it would be interesting to play these roles - " Zhou Runfa smiled nonchalantly, but when Fatty Cheng mentioned this, he became a little interested. I have to say that Zhou Runfa is definitely a very dedicated actor.  . The issue of image is not worth mentioning when it comes to acting. It is not like those idols in later generations who have to ensure that they look handsome to the audience. Damn, your big face makes many viewers vomit.  Wang Dong was also overjoyed when he generously accepted the role in the new movie. With Zhou Runfa, "God of Gamblers" would be the next step. Otherwise, even if Wang Dong wanted to reform, he would not be able to find a more suitable God of Gamblers than Zhou Runfa.  Wang Dong is also quite touched by Zhou Runfa¡¯s trust. Brother Fa, don¡¯t worry. This time we will challenge a new character and story, but you have to think about it carefully before that.  You must gain weight and be taller, so that it will be more in line with the image of the character in my mind. Wang Dong glanced at Zhou Runfa and made his own request: "Okay, no problem, I'll just listen to you."  But for your movie, I lost weight while filming "A Better Tomorrow", lost weight while filming "Prison", and now I'm trying to gain weight again. I really don't know if you're kidding me.  Me. Haha Zhou Runfa said jokingly. ¡°Brother Fa, don¡¯t tell me. You can shoot with Brother Dong. I don¡¯t know how many people are envious. Even I wanted to shoot with Brother Dong.¡±  "Shaolin Temple" has given me a lot. Brother Dong, how about I help you? Anyway, I don't have much to do recently Du Qifeng glanced at Zhou Runfa with envy and said, "Hmm?"  Nothing? "Nothing. I am currently preparing for another TV series, but it is in preparation. It will take some time before it can start.  Johnnie To answered truthfully.  If that¡¯s the case, I have something I need your help with.  Now the company has a copy of the movie, but half of it needs to be shot to complete the entire movie.  This film is the second film in my original "The Happy Ghost Is Coming" series. It is called "The Happy Ghost is on Summer Vacation" and was originally intended to be released in the summer.  HoweverZhisen left the company, causing the film to be aborted. I wonder if you would be willing to help complete the filming?  Originally, I planned to complete it myself, but there were too many things to do and I couldn¡¯t spare any time.  Since you have so much time, how about helping with the filming?  ""Happy Ghosts' Summer Vacation" was originally assigned to Gao Zhisen to shoot and collect materials, but later Gao Zhisen left the company, making the film a semi-finished product. Originally, Wang Dong was going to complete the filming and let the film be released. However,  But time was too tight, and many people within the company had their own plans, which made this movie uninterested. Therefore, when Wang Dong saw that Johnnie To had time, he couldn't help but think of Johnnie To in his actual memory.  He has a lot of connections with the "Happy Ghost" series. The third film "Happy Ghost" is actually a movie directed by him, so Wang Dong immediately thought of Johnnie To to reshoot this movie.  He is so talented and has an amazing style. But he is also a very good director. Wang Dong is very relieved to let him shoot a comedy movie, and it is not without a hint of support and training.  Wang Dong also has high expectations for Du Qifeng. He is also one of the top directors Wang Dong is preparing to train. His personal style is very interesting.  Many people say that Johnnie To single-handedly supports Hong Kong movies. This is not unreasonable. Although it may be a slight exaggeration, it also shows that Johnnie To's ability is absolutely extraordinary.
