My Hong Kong Island Filmmaker

Chapter 770

PS: Ask for a recommendation ticket, ask for a monthly ticket.

PS: I suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in the cervical spine yesterday, so I didn't dare to continue coding.

There are 747 luxury seats in the Boeing 12 first-class cabin of the international flight from Paris to Hong Kong Island.

Wu Xiaozu folded his legs and straightened his waist.

"Sir, your mineral water."

A stewardess in a well-tailored uniform, with thin black silk wrapped around her slender legs, is very friendly and seductive.Air France uniforms have always been designed by Christian La Croix of the LVMH Group, showing French elegance.

"Thank you."

Wu Xiaozu was relieved of the French version of "Lover" in his hand, and thanked him in French, which he has become familiar with a lot. It may be because he didn't have a good rest, and his cervical spine is very uncomfortable recently.

"Do you need to change into the pajamas we prepared for you now? The pajamas and toiletries are on your left... Do you need a blanket?" Air France stewardess smiled and served in a low voice, "If you have any other questions, you can contact me at any time .I'll bring it to you later in the morning..."

The stewardess communicated the menu with Wu Xiaozu concisely and patiently.

Watching the stewardess leave with a smile, Wu Xiaozu looked back, just in time to see a scholar-like Asian man in a suit, tie and glasses sitting on the single sofa in the same airplane cabin across a corridor, nodding and smiling at Wu Xiaozu.

Out of politeness, Wu Xiaozu raised the crystal cup in his hand and nodded.

"Excuse me, sir, are you from Hong Kong Island?" The other party looked at Wu Xiaozu curiously, and asked in very standard French.

"Chinese from Hong Kong Island." Wu Xiaozu smiled back, "Wu Xiaozu."

"Hello...Mr. Wu, I am An Kang, from Jiangcheng, China." The other party first spoke in Mandarin, and then he might think that the other party is from Hong Kong, and Mandarin may not be very good, so he continued to speak friendly in French: "I didn't expect to meet compatriots on this flight back to Hong Kong. It's true to meet old acquaintances in a foreign land. Is Mr. Wu on a business trip in France or studying abroad?"

"You can speak Mandarin, I can understand it." Wu Xiaozu looked at the other party to take care of himself, and said with a smile, "My Mandarin is 'pretty solid'."

Hearing a Hong Kong person speaking standard Mandarin, An Kang was stunned for a moment, and then he heard a magical Jiangcheng dialect, and couldn't help smiling, "Mr. Wu's Mandarin is the one I heard from Guangdong Province and Hong Kong Island." People who speak the most standard words are even better than me..."

In later generations, there is a question on Zhihu: Why does Jiangcheng dialect sound like a curse?

The answer begins with: Hahaha! (Come on, Wuhan!)

When Wu Xiaozu went to Jiangcheng, he once took the 521 bus in Wuhan... so far... his legs are trembling.

I still remember that when my bus driver was chasing the bus ahead, the passengers advised him to drive slowly, and the driver said directly: "The one in front is not afraid of death, I am afraid of Moss..."

By the way, it was a female bus driver.

I remember when the Prime Minister went to Jiangcheng for an inspection and tried to ride a bus. After taking the bus, he said with deep emotion: the most distinctive feature of Jiangcheng is the skills of the bus drivers, which are world-class!
By the way, I learned what is called 'swinging dishes'.

"I'm here on a business trip, Mr. An..." Wu Xiaozu asked with a smile.

"I'm also on a business trip, and I happen to be passing through Hong Kong Island to meet up with the school's debate team. When the time comes, we will transfer to Yangcheng and return to Jiangcheng..." the other party replied.

"So Mr. An is a teacher?"

"He has been in charge of teaching in the French Department of Jiangcheng University."

"So it's Professor An..."

"no no……"

The two smiled and talked to each other. Most of the Chinese who can afford first-class seats in this era are not simple. They have a kind of friendship between gentlemen. They chatted with each other about the customs of France, Hong Kong Island and Jiangcheng.

The other party is indeed a scholar, appearing to be gentle.

Especially after seeing the French version of "The Lover" on Wu Xiaozu's lap, they have a common topic in literature, they have a good conversation, and there is a trend of being like-minded...

In terms of French translation and interpretation, the other party can more clearly and accurately summarize and interpret in Chinese language than Isabelle Adjani, a French native. Adapt direction.

"When we arrive on Hong Kong Island, Mr. An must have a light meal together, and let me show the friendship of the landlord." Wu Xiaozu took the initiative to invite, "Don't refuse, I still have to ask Professor An a lot of questions."

Although he is a scholar and literati, An Kang is not pedantic or pretentious. On the contrary, he is very free and easy, and makes people comfortable in the world. Seeing Wu Xiaozu's invitation sincerely, he also agreed.

The two ended their happy chat with the stewardess' soft reminder.

After nearly 18 or 9 hours of flying, the plane finally landed at Kai Tak International Airport.

Because of the time difference, when we arrived here, it happened to be a busy hour after 7:[-] pm. As the busiest airport in the world, there was a lot of people.

"Professor An, where are you going? I'll let the car take you."

"Don't bother, I have someone here to pick up the plane." An Kang smiled and waved his hand, pointing out of the mouth.

"That's fine, but since you're staying on Hong Kong Island for four days, call me when you get to the hotel, and let me do my best as a landlord." Wu Xiaozu didn't continue to force.

It's probably just right for adults to get along with each other, and the words stop here.

After parting, the other party went to the luggage transfer place to pick up other luggage, while Wu Xiaozu strode outside with his travel bag.

There are paparazzi guarding the airport all the year round, but this Air France flight is not a popular flight, so not many people paid attention to it.Although Wu Xiaozu is well-known throughout Hong Kong and frequently appeared in front of the stage, he is still behind the scenes.

In the parking area, Jiang Zhiqiang parked the car at the predetermined location according to the agreement.

Wu Xiaozu walked into the parking lot and saw a Lexus parked in the parking space from a distance. He looked around and walked up silently. Before he could get close, he saw Jiang Er Shao who was wearing a Versace T-shirt and Armani shorts got off the car.

"Your old man is finally willing to come back..." Jiang Ershao teased and took the handbag, "What are you doing, where are you going?"

"Hit the side stove, go take a shower after eating."

Wu Xiaozu twisted his neck, "Find someone to pinch it for me, the cervical spine is not feeling well recently."

"Do you want me to arrange it for you?"

"I'm talking about a serious massage master..."

"Forget it, let's get to know each other seriously." Jiang Ershao shrugged, "Then go to the side furnace first, and then find a Thai masaki, that's all. The Thai technicians look like... see It makes people very serious when they go up...all of them are short winter melons with black nests..."

Wu Xiaozu looked up and down Jiang Ershao's height.

……

The stove is steaming, rolling bone broth, and an electric fan is stretched across the corner.

Wu Xiaozu shoved the meat into his mouth, it was so hot that he bared his teeth and grinned, while wiping the beads of sweat that couldn't be shaken off his head, he was still enjoying himself.

"Italian and French food are not good? It looks like you have been hungry for days..."

Jiang Ershao rinsed the green vegetables, picked up the frozen lemon tea next to him, and teased with a smile, "Do you want some cow treasures and kidneys for you?"

"Two more dishes." Wu Xiaozu pouted and waved his chopsticks, and asked vaguely: "What's the situation in Xinyi City?"

"A child has no mother, it's a long story."

"Then start talking with his mother."

"Speaking of which, it's still your business..." Jiang Zhiqiang smiled and told Wu Xiaozu the matter.

It is probably because New Art City is unable to make ends meet and is on the verge of bankruptcy. At the same time, Golden Princess Cinemas has also been struggling to make profits recently, causing internal turmoil.As a result, many families are now staring at each other.

"The two brothers Lei Yunqing and Lei Yunlong from the Golden Princess Entertainment Company are making a fuss." Jiang Zhiqiang ended with one sentence.

Wu Xiaozu stuffed a fish ball without raising his head, "Where's Old Ghost Lei?"

"A few days ago, a tabloid photographed him being admitted to the hospital."

Jiang Zhiqiang thought for a while, and said in a low voice: "Will Xiao Qiang be troubled, should we push the wall together with everyone?"

"It's not so easy for the Jiubalei family to fall." Wu Xiaozu didn't care.

"Of course the Jiuba Lei family is not that easy to fall down, but Princess Jin is not the same as the Lei family, let alone Xinyi City." Jiang Zhiqiang said bluntly, "I understand your concerns, but when you have to do it, you have to do it... Golden Princess Cinemas..."

Wu Xiaozu did have concerns.

Business is just going around in circles.

He doesn't want to get a bad reputation either.

Especially if he really doesn't think much of the Shangjin Princess Cinema.

Many people's thinking about doing theater chains is all the thinking of the "big old king" later, thinking that buying a theater chain is equivalent to entering the film industry... So after the big old king suddenly became rich, he began to enclose land in Laomei...

I almost lost my life.

Cinema chains have no future on Hong Kong Island.

But the people below don’t see it that way, they care too much about theaters.

Now [-] is a giant in the industry, and it can be said that its overall strength even surpasses Golden Harvest.

but……

Without a theater chain, it is really dull.

Although they have shares in Xinbao.

"Since everyone is willing to give it a try, let's try it." Wu Xiaozu was also unwilling to dampen Jiang Ershao's enthusiasm.

But he didn't want to be a theater chain, on the contrary, most of the four theater chains are now franchised by theaters.

What he thought was that he could take the opportunity to start a wave of commercial real estate.

Who said that film companies can't buy houses and shops.

This asset-heavy method is beyond the imagination of the major theaters now... Now the daily movie theater under Big Chest Brother is taking this route + leasing routine.

So, although the big breasted brother didn't make a lot of money recently because of the theater chain, he really made a lot of money with the increase in real estate prices.

"Then I'll get in touch with Princess Jin?" Jiang Zhiqiang eagerly asked.

He started out in theaters, and has an indissoluble bond and obsession with theaters.For the Jiang family, the theater chain has been an ancestral business for decades.

"You can figure it out, but..." Wu Xiaozu shook his head with a smile, "I can't always let Mecca go outside to ruin my reputation. In this way - I have an appointment with Mecca these two days."

Today's Wu Xiaozu began to slowly change from petty profits to long-term profits.

Fame sometimes seems useless, but sometimes it is ubiquitous and very important in business.

The same is true of some public welfare undertakings he has done in recent years.

The matter of "Seven Sins" is somewhat digging a hole... Although Mecca was begging Bailai to jump into the hole at the beginning, it doesn't make sense.

Art creation, where is the time limit?

Isn't it true that Wang lost money to film for eight months... Forget it, this example is not good.

In short, it is good to untie this mess.
