The road to becoming a movie star from the villain

Chapter 327 Attending the Banquet, Welcomed by the Big Boss

New Year, HK, International Airport.

Outside the safe passage, an extremely tall beauty was looking forward to the direction of the safe passage.

This woman is fair and beautiful, with surprisingly long legs. She wears a pair of sunglasses that look expensive. The clothes and accessories all over her body show that this woman is a properly wealthy family.

However, what is surprising is that this woman is picking up the plane at the airport?

Could it be that she is waiting for her boyfriend, or a lover of a certain boss, who is waiting for the boss?
Some people who picked up the plane looked at this beauty from time to time, thinking very surprised.

At this moment, there was a sudden commotion in front, and it seemed that the passengers had arrived.

The people who picked up the plane looked towards the exit one after another, ready to pick up the plane.

In the safe passage, Hong Chen was surrounded, followed by his two assistants, Wang Ming and Zhu Yuan, coming out of the passage.

People around took their mobile phones and aimed at Hong Chen one after another.

Hong Chen didn't show any impatience, he just waved at everyone.

At this time, the beautiful woman suddenly laughed and walked towards Hong Chen.

This beautiful woman came to pick up Hong Chen at the airport.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Hong Chen gestured to Wang Ming with his eyes.Wang Ming understood, and went to meet the beauty.

Today's paparazzi like to catch rumors, if Hong Chen goes to chat with her in person, although it is just a simple pick-up, if it is not handled well, it will become gossip about a private meeting with a lover in the mouth of unscrupulous media.

Afterwards, after Wang Ming understood the situation, Hong Chen followed Wang Ming and walked outside.

This time he came to HK to attend a private banquet.

The banquet is held in HK "Repulse Bay", which is the most famous gathering place of luxury houses here. Those who can buy villas here are either rich or expensive.

Some time ago, Lao Ma, the boss of Penguin, just spent 4.8 million to buy a villa in Shek O, Repulse Bay, which shows how high the status of the people here is.

Hong Chen came here today to attend Yuanlong's birthday party.

In fact, there are few such news in the mainland, but there are many in HK.

The bosses of HK often hold birthday parties and invite friends to come together.

This is especially true for big shots like Xiang Hua.

In the early years, HK was quite chaotic. At that time, there were still many people who started their careers by relying on associations, and they are not completely divorced now.

Back then, filmmaking was a lucrative industry, so it was often attacked by associations. For example, news broke that members of the association rushed into the company to snatch film negatives.

At that time, many Hong Kong stars were in danger of life, this is not a joke.

Therefore, Hong Kong stars will also contact some forces and seek asylum.

Over time, those people at the top gradually formed a "Hong Kong circle". Almost all the bigwigs in the Hong Kong circle knew each other, and there were many grievances and grievances. Of course, the interests were the majority.

Today's Yuanlong birthday banquet is actually just a name, the real purpose is for everyone to sit together and discuss business.

There were many celebrities and bigwigs who came, such as Wang Xiaojing, Zeng Ziwei, etc., so the banquet was very lively.

This kind of banquet usually has no paparazzi, and the entry and exit will be strictly checked.

It was the people sent by Emperor Entertainment who came to pick up Hong Chen.

Large-scale entertainment companies in the Hong Kong film industry, such as Emperor Entertainment, Universal Pictures, and China Star Films, basically account for most of the Hong Kong film market.

Hong Chen had worked with the Emperor on "New Police Story" before, so it can be regarded as some kind of friendship.

The vehicle drove into the villa without any obstruction. When the security personnel saw the vehicle, they knew that a big man was coming, so they stood respectfully.

After that, Hong Chen walked into the banquet led by Tong Fei who picked him up from the airport.As an assistant and bodyguard, Wang Ming went to the side hall to rest.

"Master Hong!"

"Master Hong!"

"Haha, Master Hong, long time no see!"

When Hong Chen appeared at the banquet, many people greeted him one after another with extremely respectful attitudes.

Hong Chen responded with a smile, but there was still some doubt in the depths of his eyes, and he always felt that everyone's attitude towards him was too enthusiastic.

"Hong Chen, welcome." At this moment, Yuan Long, as the protagonist, came to welcome Hong Chen.

"Happy birthday, today's battle is big enough." Seeing Yuanlong, Hong Chen gave a gift and said with a smile.

The gift was a golden dragon made of pure gold. HK people especially like to use gold as gifts, especially in the big circle.

"Do you know why it's so big? Many people came here for your name." Yuan Long said in a low voice.

"Me?" Hong Chen was slightly puzzled.

"Your current box office and box office appeal are a solid cash cow in the eyes of any capital. For example, this year's Spring Festival in the Mainland, the movie you starred in was the box office champion, with more than 30 billion yuan." Yuanlong exclaimed.

Hearing this, Hong Chen probably understood.

In fact, now that Hong Kong films are in decline, the total box office of Hong Kong films is not high. Apart from Hong Chen's "Infernal Affairs" leading a trend a few years ago, Hong Kong films have only briefly regained their glory.

Nowadays, most film and television companies don't make much money.

Wang Xiaojing has always been criticized as "the king of bad movies". Over the years, she has made more than 400 movies.In fact, it's not that he wants to make bad movies, it's because this is the fastest way to get money, and it's also the way to save the HK film market.

But relying on this to save is undoubtedly a disgusting cycle.

Police and robbers, gun battles, anti-corruption, anti-drugs, undercover, Hong Kong movies are now inseparable from such themes.

This kind of theme is amazing at first, but after the audience gradually becomes aesthetically fatigued, they are reluctant to go to the cinema to watch it.

Comparing with Yuanlong's comedy action movies, Xing Ye's nonsensical and funny movies, Fa Ge's masculine God of Gamblers, gangster movies, and many other outstanding people, it can be said that a hundred flowers bloomed.

Therefore, the HK film market is shrinking.

At this time, these people also realized a very critical problem.

That is, if you don't seek a way out and continue to close the circle, the prospect of the market will only become smaller and smaller.

The mainland's film and television standards have long surpassed HK, and left HK far behind.

As for Hong Chen, as the most prosperous star in mainland China, his worth may have even surpassed many bigwigs in HK.

"I won't hide it from you. The Emperor has had some problems recently and needs some help. The boss of the Emperor Yang Chengcheng came to me, but I don't have so much energy to take care of these things now, so I came to you." Yuan Long said again.

Only then did Hong Chen realize that this birthday party was actually a commercial event.

But it's normal, at his stage, there will be a lot of business talks.

"Me? What can I help with?" Hong Chen said with a calm smile.

"You are different now. Many people here have heard that you are coming and want to get to know you." Yuan Long explained.

Regarding this, Hong Chen was noncommittal.

At this time, a heroic middle-aged man came over, Yuan Long also smiled and said to Hong Chen: "Let me introduce to you, this is the boss of Emperor Entertainment, Yang Cheng."

"Haha, I've heard that there is a powerful person in the mainland. This kind of bearing is indeed beyond the reach of ordinary people." Yang Cheng took the lead and greeted Hong Chen directly.

Yang Cheng is a big shot in HK, and the Emperor Group is like a giant in HK.

The company's investment covers all aspects, hotels, jewelry, real estate, finance, entertainment, movies and so on.The Emperor Group has six boss companies alone.

Emperor Entertainment is just one of them.

Emperor Entertainment now has a dilemma, that is, music production has been on the rise, but film production is constantly losing money.

In terms of music, Emperor has Twins, Nicholas Tse, Gu Juji, Li Keqin, Chen Weiting, etc. They are all popular stars, and the release of records has always been very popular.

However, the film market is becoming increasingly sluggish. Yuan Long used to be an artist under Emperor's banner, and now he makes fewer films.Emperor's movies are now completely supported by Zha Zhahui.

Therefore, Emperor needs to seek change.

After all, Hong Chen has only just developed for a few years. Yang Cheng's current net worth is more than ten times that of his, and he belongs to the existence that would shake the HK entertainment circle if he stomped his feet.

"Hello, Director Yang." Hong Chen smiled and stretched out his hand, shaking hands with Yang Cheng in greeting.

Many people's eyes are looking here.

With Yang Cheng's status, it is rare for him to greet a young man so kindly now.

You know, in HK, artists are really just tools to make money, and they are very polite when they meet big shots.

For example, the Xiang family held a random banquet, and no one dared not to invite them, and they were very polite when they met.

Yang Cheng also belongs to such a big boss.

Therefore, many people looked at Hong Chen with deep shock in their eyes.

This inland artist has such a high status?
