- The big shots are the last to appear at the right time, and the big shots have the right to be late.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? By ????????? ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? By Massive Applause
This is how a big shot appears.
As the autocratic ruler of the Shaw Brothers and an absolute film tycoon in Hong Kong, Shao Yifu can be said to be the most powerful figure in the Hong Kong film industry.
Every time such a big shot attends a party or attends a show, he is definitely the center of attention.
Since receiving the invitation from Wang Ben to attend the "Eight Star Announcement" celebration banquet held by Phantom International, Shao Yifu has been planning to give Wang Ben a little look.
Shao Yifu decided to be late!
Shao Yifu wanted Wang Ben¡¯s celebration banquet to be quiet, and then at the critical moment, he would appear under the spotlight, activate the silent celebration banquet, and bring the celebration banquet to a climax. He wants Wang Ben to know that a party without him, Shao Yifu, is definitely not a good party; he wants Wang Ben to know who is the undisputed leader in the Hong Kong film industry!
Therefore, nearly half an hour after the banquet was held, Shao Yifu appeared at the entrance of the Peninsula Hotel in his Rolls-Royce with license plate number "6".
What surprised him was that there were no reporters at the door of the hotel who were annoying and annoying like flies chasing odors. And the applause, the cheers, the spotlight, the red carpet nothing. The entrance to the deserted Peninsula Hotel was almost deserted, with only a few doormen and waiters standing there conscientiously.
Shao Yifu opened the car door and got out of the car with a pretty girl who could suit both men and women. He frowned and looked coldly with his sparse eyebrows, the corners of his mouth were tilted, and a look of unpleasantness appeared on his thin face.
Such a deserted scene was something Shao Yifu had never encountered before. For a moment, Shao Yifu thought he had remembered it wrong. Shao Yifu thought to himself: Did I remember it wrong? The celebration banquet will not be held at the Peninsula Hotel, or will it be held tonight? This is impossible! I remember it very clearly, tonight, at the Peninsula Hotel!
Thinking of this. Shao Yifu couldn't help but feel secretly angry, and his face became even more ugly.
The beautiful woman held by Shao Yifu frowned and said in confusion: "Uncle Six, have we come to the wrong place? Why is there no one to greet you at the door? Uncle Six, why don't we check whether the date and place on the invitation are correct? ?¡±
Shao Yifu glanced at this beautiful woman with many questions indifferently, and said with a gentle smile: "Miss Ding, I didn't bring an invitation. Do I still need an invitation in Xiangjiang? Just with my face, Shao Yifu, I walked There¡¯s no need for invitations! Let¡¯s go in and see what this celebration banquet at Phantom International is like!¡±
A tycoon is indeed a tycoon. A simple sentence reveals infinite confidence and pride.
Ms. Ding had a look of admiration on her face, and her two big eyes were full of nymphomaniacs. She obediently walked to Shao Yifu, and Xiaoniao held Shao Yifu's arm lovingly and walked into the Peninsula Hotel.
The lighting is dim and dim, and the atmosphere is leisurely and elegant. Accompanied by melodious saxophone dance music. Couples of men and women in the restaurant either embraced each other and danced gently, or chatted together in groups holding wine glasses, or one person tasted the sweet wine in the glass alone
And all this has nothing to do with Wang Ben.
This is a small private room. Simple and elegant Victorian-style sofa furniture, all kinds of ancient gold- and silver-inlaid vases and porcelain ornaments that exude a strong historical atmosphere, as well as artistic oil paintings hanging on the walls all of which combine this The decoration of the private room is simple and elegant.
But in such an elegant private room, a tense scene was unfolding.
"boom!"
Wang Ben slapped the mahogany coffee table heavily, his eyebrows raised slantingly, his sharp eyes staring closely at Zhou Wenhuai, and the corners of his curled mouth were filled with sneers.
"HeheheheMr. Zhou, if I hadn't seen you as Bruce's boss. And we have cooperated before. If I wanted to give you some benefits! Do you think I would call you into this private room? ? You are reallyheheheyou are so ignorant!"
Looking at Zhou Wenhuai, who looked indifferent, he actually looked like a rogue from the corners of his eyes and eyebrows. Wang Ben wanted to catch him and throw him out of the room like a shot put and discus.
What is luring the wolf into the house?
This is it!
Zhou Wenhuai is the wolf who can¡¯t get enough to eat!
The key is that Li Xiaolong didn¡¯t react at all. It seemed that he wanted to acquiesce to Zhou Wenhuai's proposal.
Wang Ben originally saw Zhou Wenhuai during a press conference. He thought that he would need Jiahe's support in Xiangjiang in the future, so he invited Zhou Wenhuai to this private room.
But I didn¡¯t expect that Zhou Wenhuai would talk so shamelessly as soon as he entered the private room. In other words, the lion said such words loudly.
"I want to hold 50% of the shares in the film company you set up, and the conditions are whatever you want!"
Hahahahahehehehe
Wang Ben couldn't help but sneer in his heart. He said in his heart: You actually want to get involved in my and Li Xiaolong¡¯s company? ! You actually want to turn us into your Jiahe workers? ! You actually want to completely control the film company? ! What a daydream and wishful thinking!
Zhou Wenhuai looked very calm and ignored Wang Ben's harsh words. Zhou Wenhuai looked at Li Xiaolong who was sitting silently. My heart said: If I let you and Li Xiaolong set up a film company, but I didn't have a hand in it! So where does Jiahe stand out? It won't be long before Jiahe will disappear under the crushing force of Shaw Brothers
Wang Ben also looked at Li Xiaolong and said in his heart: Li Xiaolong, you are such a fool! Under such circumstances, you remained silent, allowing Zhou Wenhuai to hear such harsh conditions. It¡¯s really rotten wood that cannot be carved! Fortunately, I didn't agree to form a film company with you that day, otherwise there's no telling who would own Phantom International today!
"Bruce, what did you say?" Wang Ben stared at Li Xiaolong with sharp eyes.
Li Xiaolong is also in a dilemma.
Zhou Wenhuai was his boss and had the favor to promote him. And these days, Zhou Wenhuai has been persevering in promising him various conditions, including funding the establishment of a film company. This made him who valued love and justice really unable to say anything to refuse.
And Wang Ben is a person he admires very much. It has always been his wish to form a film company with Wang Ben.
Being sandwiched between Wang Ben and Zhou Wenhuai, Li Xiaolong felt very aggrieved.
"Ahu, do you think we should let Mr. Zhou join in?" Li Xiaolong looked at Wang Bi and said good things for Zhou Wenhuai.
Zhou Wenhuai immediately beamed. In my heart, it is called beauty!
Zhou Wenhuai patted Li Xiaolong on the shoulder and praised: "Xiaolong, I did not misjudge you! You are indeed a good man who values ??love and justice and knows how to repay kindness!"
Historically, Li Xiaolong organized his own Concord Pictures. Zhou Wenhuai also took advantage of Li Xiaolong's weakness and tampered with it, turning Concord Pictures into a subsidiary of Golden Harvest, and a dispensable subsidiary at that.
However, Li Xiaolong said to Zhou Wenhuai: "However, Mr. Zhou, the 50% share you asked for is too harsh If Ahu and I share the remaining 50%, I'm afraid Ahu will definitely not I will agree"
Wang Ben sneered and said: "Bruce. You don't have to say it! Fifty percent?! Hahaha That's absolutely impossible. Bruce and I are neither short of money, nor are we those unknown people Bruce and I You can start a film company at any time without anyone's help.
HahahaMr. Zhou, why do you think we should take you with us? Originally, I called you here just to talk to you about the distribution matters of the new film company I believe that as long as I spread the word, there will definitely be many companies in Xiangjiang who want to accept our distribution business! If nothing else, let¡¯s just talk about Mr. Shaw¡¯s Shaw family. He is definitely willing to accept it.
Now it seems that you want to turn this new company into a subsidiary of your Jiahe! Then there is no other way. Hehehehe"
Zhou Wenhuai¡¯s face turned pale at Wang Ben¡¯s words. He didn't expect Wang Ben to speak so directly, leaving no room for error. Zhou Wenhuai looked at Li Xiaolong begging for help. If he wants Li Xiaolong to say a few nice words to him, find a place to go.
Receiving Zhou Wenhuai¡¯s look for help, Li Xiaolong had no choice but to smooth things over.
"Ahu. Do you think we should discuss it again? Mr. Zhou's request is too much, but he has helped us after all. If you think about "Fist of Fury", it is still very pleasant to think about our cooperation"
Wang Ben looked at Li Xiaolong angrily, really not knowing what Li Xiaolong was thinking. Obviously Li Xiaolong and he can form a film company. Why involve Zhou Wenhuai again?
Two people can eat a large cake and feel full. Why bring another person to eat? Isn¡¯t that just taking food out of their mouths and eating it?
However, Wang Ben also blamed himself secretly, saying in his heart: Zhou Wenhuai should not have been dragged into this room. what do you think? Is it because of Zhou Wenhuai?
Zhou Wenhuai looked at Wang Ben's determined look. I knew that it was impossible to get any benefits out of Wang Ben's mouth, and it was absolutely true.?It may take a dominant position in the film company to be formed and control the company.
He had no choice but to surrender to Wang Ben.
"So what does Mr. Wang want to do? Mr. Wang, what conditions do you want before you agree to let me invest in this company? How much does it cost"
What conditions?
Hum hum¡¡
If possible, I will not let you occupy even the slightest share! Others don't know the value of Li Xiaolong, but I know it clearly. Invest a little money now, and the output in the future will be huge. If you want to join in, you can¡¯t do it without paying the corresponding price! money? ! Do we lack your money now? Hey hey hey
Wang Ben paid attention.
Wang Ben touched the fluffy beard on his chin, raised his sword eyebrows, and had a thick evil smile at the corner of his mouth.
"Mr. Zhou, you can buy shares if you want, but you can only buy 10% of the shares at most. It's absolutely impossible to buy more than 10% of the shares. And you don't need to use cash to buy 10% of the shares. We only need you to buy Jiahe Cinema Line. 10% share exchange. If you agree, then we will continue to talk about film distribution. If you don¡¯t agree then please go out and enjoy the party tonight. What do you think?"
"Um?"
10% of Jiahe Cinema Line¡¯s shares are exchanged for 10% of the company¡¯s shares? !
Is there anything more shameless than this? !
You take a film company that has not yet been established and want to exchange it for the shares of Golden Harvest Cinema
It is simply the most ridiculous thing in the world!
It¡¯s simply a shameless robbery!
It¡¯s simply
The veins on Zhou Wenhuai's forehead popped out one by one, his elegant face was covered with frost, and his angry eyes were covered with bloodshot eyes. He was so angry that he could hardly speak.
"Mr. Wang, you, you, you just don't want our Jiahe to invest in the film company! You. You, you Xiaolong, look at what he is doing?"
"Hahaha¡¡"
Seeing Zhou Wenhuai looking a little angry, Wang Ben couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh. The huge sound shook the private room, and the decorations such as cups and plates were shaking leisurely.
Suddenly, Wang Ben stopped laughing and asked with a stern look on his face: "What? Mr. Zhou, are you unwilling to change? Do you think that by changing the method, Jiahe will suffer a big loss? Hahaha you You look down on Bruce¡¯s box office appeal, and you also look down on my ability! Humph! Even with this change, I still feel that Bruce and I are at a disadvantage, don¡¯t you think so?¡±
Li Xiaolong remained silent and did not say a word to the verbal exchange between Wang Ben and Zhou Wenhuai. He understood that if Wang Ben continued to fight for their interests, if he opposed Wang Ben now, it would definitely hurt Wang Ben's efforts.
¡°Besides, Li Xiaolong is a very conceited person. As he once said: I dare not say that I am the best in the world, but I will never admit that I am the second in the world!
When a conceited person like him hears Wang Ben say such words, he will absolutely agree. Li Xiaolong believes that the shares of the company he and Wang Ben formed are definitely comparable to the shares of Jiahe Cinema Line!
It¡¯s just that because of his relationship with Zhou Wenhuai, Li Xiaolong couldn¡¯t express his position directly.
Wang Ben was really disappointed with Li Xiaolong. Li Xiaolong usually looks like he is the boss of the world, but why does he lose control at the critical moment?
Wang Benxin said: If I hadn¡¯t wanted to use your influence to get the movie into Hollywood, or if I hadn¡¯t seen your value. If I didn't want to use you to expand my influence to foreign countries, I wouldn't form any company with you!
Wang Ben no longer cared about Li Xiaolong and said directly: "Mr. Zhou, look at it. Look at it. Look at Bruce's acquiescence. You may feel a little disadvantaged now, but you have to look at the future potential of me and Bruce! I With the script and Bruce's wonderful performance, we will be the first Hong Kong film company to break into Hollywood Dollars! Dollars! ¡¡±
¡°Dong dong dong¡¡±
When Wang Ben was talking happily, dancing and spitting, there was a knock on the door outside, interrupting his words. Wang Ben frowned. Suddenly I felt a little unhappy. He shouted outside: "Who is it?"
The door of the private room opened quietly. Zhang Zheng leaned half in and said to Wang Ben: "Ahu, Mr. Shao is here. His face is a little ugly. It seems he seems angry! Do you want to come out and show yourself? A face?"
Show up?
As the host of the celebration banquet of "Eight Star Announcement", Wang Ben will definitely make an appearanceCome and show your face to receive Shao Yifu. Otherwise, others will say that Wang Ben does not know etiquette and does not know how to respect his elders.
Wang Ben stood up, looked at Zhou Wenhuai and Li Xiaolong, straightened his clothes, and said apologetically: "Mr. Zhou, that's all I have to say about your investment. You go back and think about it, and discuss it with everyone in Jiahe." No, please reply to me and Bruce. Don't wait until the deadline. Bruce, I have already written the script and I will have it delivered to your home tomorrow. Regarding the matter of the film company, um, the distribution of sharesif Mr. Zhou agrees. If so, then each of us will own half of the remaining 90%. If Mr. Zhou doesn¡¯t agree, then you will own 51% and I will own 49%. What do you think?¡±
Li Xiaolong said without thinking: "No, no, no! You should take the majority! You have management experience. And I also believe that you can manage this company well. I mainly want to make movies, and I don't care about the rest."
Li Xiaolong looked at Zhou Wenhuai, who looked ugly, and continued: "If Mr. Zhou agrees, then we will give you the share; if Mr. Zhou does not agree, then you will take 51% and I will take 4%." nineteen."
Wang Ben pondered for a moment and said: "Okay! If this is the case, then I will take advantage. But let me pay for the establishment of the company alone! That's it! Well, you'd better prepare, I'll do it right away We have to go to the United States to solve this matter. Hahaha You can also take me to Hollywood"
Li Xiaolong has lived in the United States for many years, and has also participated in many movies in Hollywood. He is familiar with the United States and knows Hollywood very well. This time Wang Ben went to the United States to shoot, and he didn't know anything about it, so it was just right for Li Xiaolong to show off his local snake skills.
Li Xiaolong smiled and said: "Okay! It's settled! Let me know when you are leaving."
Wang Ben smiled and said: "Okay! Bruce, let's go out together! The party outside is so exciting, we must not miss it! Mr. Zhou, would you like to go out for a drink together?"
With that said, Wang Ben pulled Li Xiaolong out of the private room with a smile.
Shao Yifu and Miss Ding were led by the waiter into the restaurant where the "Eight Star Annunciation" celebration banquet was held. He was recognized as soon as he entered the restaurant, and everyone greeted him along the way.
"Mr. Shao is here!"
"Hello, Uncle Six!"
"Good evening, Uncle Six."
""
The reporters present also took out their cameras and took pictures of Shao Yifu.
The enthusiastic greeting made Shao Yifu's stern face soften. Shao Yifu looked around the restaurant and found no trace of Wang Ben. This made Shao Yifu a little surprised, and he thought to himself: Did Wang Ben not attend the celebration banquet? Or did he hide somewhere?
Just when Shao Yifu was confused, Huang Zhan walked over.
Wang Ben is not here. As the general manager of Phantom International, Huang Zhan naturally has to greet the guests in Wang Ben's place. Huang Zhan picked up two glasses of wine from the passing waiter's plate, walked up to Shao Yifu, handed one of the glasses to Shao Yifu, and then said with a smile: "Uncle Six is ??here! Welcome! As soon as Uncle Six comes, Our restaurant is suddenly in full bloom! Isn¡¯t this Miss Ding?¡±
Huang Zhan snapped his fingers and shouted coolly: "Waiter! Pretty boy! Come here! Give this beautiful lady a glass of wine!"
Shao Yifu smiled and said: "Mr. Huang, where is Ahu? He is the protagonist tonight! Why didn't you see him?"
Huang Zhan suddenly had a sad face and didn't know what to say.
Wang Ben was discussing things with Li Xiaolong and Zhou Wenhuai, and Shao Yifu didn't deal with these two people very well. If Shao Yifu knew that Wang Ben was discussing things with them, wouldn't it be a little embarrassing?
There was no other way, so Huang Zhan had no choice but to divert Shao Yifu's attention and started to panic, "Ahu went to the bathroom for a while and will be back soon. Come on, come on! Uncle Six, let's sit down here and have a drink first."
Then he winked at Zhang Zheng, who was teasing the actress, and shouted: "Zhengzi, go call the boss and tell Uncle Six that he's here."
Zhang Zheng looked at Shao Yifu and immediately understood what was going on. He immediately gave a look that said everything was OK and ran to call Wang Ben.
Shao Yifu has been involved in the world for decades and has long been a slippery old fox. How could Huang Zhan and Zhang Zheng deceive him with this artificial performance?
Shao Yifu immediately knew that there must be something fishy, ??and Huang Zhan must be hiding something from him. Shao Yifu looked at the direction Zhang Zheng was going and confirmed his idea. While dealing with Huang Zhan, he looked carefully at the direction Zhang Zheng was going.
"Um?!"
"Li Xiao???! "
"Zhou Wenhuai!"
