Siheyuan: Why is my crossing so ugly?

Chapter 723 Kunpeng Pictures

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it is already November 1966. Even Hong Kong Island, which has always been warm, has a tinge of chill.

For more than half a year, Hong Kong Island has been calm and the only thing worth mentioning is the crude Chinese detective Han Sen, who got drunk and got into an accident, directly crashing to death on the side of the road.

This can be regarded as a big event. Hong Kong Island is currently divided into three land regions, Kowloon, New Territories, and Hong Kong Island, with 21 sub-regional police stations below.

The so-called Chief Chinese Detective is the Chief Detective of the region. For example, Lei Luo is currently the Chief Detective of Kowloon and Hong Kong Island, while his opponent Yan Tong is the Chief Detective of the New Territories.

Below the chief inspector are Chinese inspectors from various police stations, but not every police station has a Chinese inspector. The Lantau police station where Uncle Nine originally belonged didn’t even have a resident plainclothes. How could it be possible? Have a detective?
Some detectives also command several sub-divisional police stations. For example, Han Sen, the Yau Ma Tei detective, is in charge of the three sub-divisional police stations in Yau Tsim Mong. He is definitely considered a high-ranking and wealthy police station.

The new inspector of Yau Ma Tei Police Station three months ago is named Feng Jiu, known as Uncle Jiu. This Uncle Jiu is a ruthless man. He solved 4 major cases in a row within 34 months of his tenure.

Tsk is the only Chinese detective in the Hong Kong Island police force who has gained a firm foothold by relying on his true ability to solve crimes and arrest criminals.

There is another point worthy of praise, that is, this Uncle Nine does not charge fees, and the people above and below charge fees. He turns a blind eye and closes his eyes, but he himself does not charge a single cent!
Under the full cover of Lei Luo's black gold empire, Yau Tsim Mong District, which is the most lucrative, has such an alternative, and it can still stand tall, which is amazing.

But that's fine, he doesn't care if he doesn't accept it, so that the boss above can get a lot of money, and the people below can also share more, and everyone is happy.

In addition, on Jordan Road in Tsim Sha Tsui, a small but well-known private detective firm opened.

This private detective agency is called Wesley Detective Agency, and the boss is an old man in his 50s. His surname is Ma and his English name is Pete.

In addition to the old man named Pete, the office also has a 15 or 6-year-old, quiet little girl named Xiaolan.

Finally, there is a handsome, but very cold young man who never speaks. Pete calls him Awen, but his real name is unknown.

This is such a small private detective firm. Since it opened for 4 months, the satisfaction rate is as high as 100%, and there is an endless stream of cases.

Ma Wu has just sent away a big customer, a wealthy businessman from Wanwan. His wife has been missing for a month, and there is no one alive or dead.

He offered 5 Hong Kong dollars and entrusted Wesley's firm to find her wife, regardless of life or death.

Ma Wuye looked at the photo of the woman in his hand, flipped it off, and gently threw it on the table, with a teasing tone:
"This girl has thin lines in her eyes, three white eyes, and her eyebrows are upturned and divergent. At first glance, she looks like a silver baby and a wife. Brother Hanwen, don't let it leak, let's work, set up an altar."

Hanwen picked up the photos on the table, as well as Xiaolan's neatly filled file registration form, and complained helplessly:

"Isn't that right, fifth master, are you catching a woman for adultery and derailment again? Are you handling some decent big cases?"

Ma Wu laughed and joked:
"Brother Hanwen, if there is such a big case, they will call the police. Our Uncle Jiu from the Yau Ma Tei Police Station is fascinated by solving the case. How can it be our turn?"

"Cut! It's just an outer disciple of Maoshan Dao. If the boss didn't let me be a policeman, how could he be arrogant!"

Han Wen said unconvinced, Ma Wu handed Xiao Ma a Double Happiness cigarette, after lighting it, he smiled persuasively and said:
"Brother Hanwen, the policemen on Hong Kong Island are all members of the Greenskin Gang, so they don't match your figure at all, and you speak authentic Beijing movies, and you don't know English, how can you be a policeman?

Besides, didn't Miss Fu say that?There will be a serious deal next month, be patient, this is 5 yuan, as the captain, you will earn a full 5000 yuan in commission! "

Upon hearing this, Hanwen became even more annoyed:

"What Miss Fu? The head is too off-centered. How can Guo Fu, that useless little yellow-haired girl, follow her into big business?
Then let me take the children to play at home all day long, what kind of captain am I now?Captain of the Young Pioneers? "

hehehe~
Ma Wu was amused by Hanwen, Xiaolan looked at Hanwen a little puzzled, she had no idea what kind of organization the Young Pioneers was.

"Brother Hanwen, it's alright, don't complain. The sir has stipulated for our firm that we must complete a monthly performance of no less than 15 yuan. You don't want to participate in the special training class anymore, do you?"

"Hey, the head has changed, it's so realistic, okay, let's go, Xiao Lan, come home with me, and pick up our little ancestors to investigate the case together."

Hanwen scratched his hair a little irritablely, greeted Du Lan, turned around and walked out of the office, Xiao Lan nodded obediently, carried her small backpack on her back, and trotted to keep up.

Hanwen started a green 7-seater Toyota van parked downstairs of the office, and took Xiaolan back to the villa in Saigon.

On the way, Xiaolan asked softly:

"Brother Hanwen, where did the master go? Shouldn't he come back to see us today?"

Xiaolan's Putonghua is very good now, and her words are correct. Han Wen curled her lips and shook her head lightly, with a slightly dissatisfied and sullen tone:
"I don't know either. Now, the gods and dragons see each other all day long, pushing a lot of children to me, and then I go to be happy every day!"

Xiaolan pursed her mouth, and retorted dissatisfiedly:

"Brother Hanwen, you talk nonsense, sir won't be happy and unrestrained alone. Last time I saw him frowning, he smoked several cigarettes in the car by himself."

"Really? Is there anything in this world that can trouble him, hiss! Could it be that he wants to go back to Sijiu City to see the jade picking, can't he? No, I have to go back and ask Chunsheng."

Hanwen seemed to have thought of something suddenly, stepped on the accelerator, and the car was speeding on the road like a mad dog.

In this three-story villa in Saigon, there are currently six people living in total, namely Han Wen, Gu Chunsheng, Du Lan, Du Tie, Du Nan, and Du Hani.

They are all people with special abilities. Hanwen is a direct disciple of the Zhengyi Sect, and he is proficient in Taoism.

However, Du Weiguo gave them a death order, absolutely not to display supernatural powers in front of any outsiders.

In this regard, the big guys have done a good job of keeping secrets. Even Ma Wu and Xiao Ma don't know that they have supernatural powers.

Hanwen and Chunsheng came to Hong Kong Island 3 months ago. After Du Weiguo settled in Hong Kong Island and was completely stable, he wrote a letter to Mr. Qian.

After just 10 days, Hanwen and Chunsheng arrived on Hong Kong Island, and Hanwen and the others couldn't stay in the country any longer.

Mr. Qian did not come. First, he was old and his homeland was difficult to leave. Second, this old man had profound morals. After seeing off Hanwen Chunsheng, he was directly invited to the Potala Palace in Tibet, saying that he was studying ancient books. and so on.

Du Weiguo secretly praised in his heart, as expected, ginger is old and spicy, why didn't I think of this paradise in the first place?
After Hanwen came, Du Weiguo had a confident child king, so he directly contacted Uncle Jiu and took Hani over.

At present, after more than a year of recuperation, the little girl Hani has also become white and fat, carved like a jade, and clings to Xiaolan all day long.

At the same time, at the Wong Nai Hang Police Academy on Hong Kong Island, Pang Xiaoqing completed her three-month police training and graduated successfully. However, when she was assigned a police station, she was not named.

Of course, she wasn't the only one who wasn't named, but she graduated with full honors, and a policewoman as beautiful as her was usually the target of fierce competition from various police stations.

When Pang Xiaoqing walked out of the police academy in a little confusion, he saw a middle-aged man with a stern face and long eyebrows standing at the door. Behind him, a police car was parked.

The man walked up to her quickly, with a calm expression and a capable tone:

"My name is Feng Jiu, the inspector of the Yau Ma Tei Police Station. From today onwards, you and me!"

At the same time, Siam Bangkok, the banquet hall on the 5th floor of Oriental Mandarin Hotel, is holding a grand movie wrap-up reception.

"Brother Tangshan" starring Bruce Lee is officially completed, and the sponsor is a newly established film company on Hong Kong Island called Kunpeng Films.

The external general manager of Kunpeng Pictures is Donald, a 50-year-old fat old man in England, but the actual boss is Zhao Yingnan, whose English name is Megan.

Brother Xiaolong officially became the first and only contracted artist under Kunpeng Films, and signed a contract with at least 10 starring roles in 8 years.

Today, a deputy mayor of Bangkok, Wan Zhongkui, the chairman of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce in Chinatown, and the head of Shaw Brothers, who came to talk about theatrical distribution, attended the wrap-up banquet today.

Shaw Brothers currently has 16 theaters on Hong Kong Island, and Lisheng Cinema, which has 9 theaters, also relies on Shaw Brothers movies to survive, so it has to rely on others.

There are currently only 51 theaters in Hong Kong Island, so the current Shaw Cinemas is definitely the number one, the only one.

In addition, Shaw Cinemas has a very extensive network of contacts in theaters throughout Southeast Asia, and it is really a giant in the film industry.

Mr. Shao actually attended the wrap-up banquet of "Big Brother Tangshan" in person today, somewhat condescending.

However, Mr. Shao did not open his mouth like a lion. When talking about the release, he spoke very gently:
"Miss Megan, this movie is really exciting. I like it very much. Shaw Brothers undertakes the distribution in all of Asia. We cooperate with you according to Hollywood movies. Let's share 55% of the box office. How about it?"

Hearing this, Zhao Yingnan immediately raised his eyebrows. Mr. Shao is not showing mercy, but a big cut of meat to sell well!The share ratio of normal theaters is usually 50%.

If Shaw Brothers Films undertakes the distribution in the whole of Asia, and if they take 55% of the distribution, then apart from their own theaters, the distribution in other regions will not be profitable at all.

After this order is completed, not only it is possible to play for nothing, but it may even be reversed and directly lose money. After all, the cost of publicity and distribution is not low.

Mr. Shao is indeed selling well. When Kunpeng Films was established on Hong Kong Island, they did not come to visit him at the pier. This is a taboo in the world, but he has not yet responded.

He received notifications from Mr. Huo, Lei Luo, and a senior foreign official successively. There was only one core idea, don't touch Kunpeng Pictures.

Mr. Shao was furious at that time, what kind of energy is this!To be able to alarm these super bosses at the same time, any one of them is very important.

What made Mr. Shao even more terrified was that when he wanted to check the details of the boss of Kunpeng, he got stuck halfway through. He was told that it was a top secret.
Mr. Shao, who has experienced the world and is well-versed in human relations, immediately came to a conclusion:
The youthful and beautiful Ms. Megan in front of her is definitely a big shot with amazing background and good hands and eyes. She can only befriend her and not offend her!

With a smile on his face, Zhao Yingnan said in a gentle tone:
"Shao Xian, you are too polite, you are a highly respected senior, and I am a rookie, I didn't know the rules before, and I was already rude if I didn't pay a visit.

Although I know little about the release of this movie, I also know that there are rules, and we, Kunpeng, cannot break the rules.

Do you think this will work?Shao Xian, we ask Shaw Brothers to distribute this "Big Brother Tangshan" globally, we Kunpeng will keep 3%, and you Shaw Brothers will get 7%. "

"Ok?"

Mr. Shao glanced at Zhao Yingnan in a little surprise. This girl is young and light, but she speaks politely, neither humble nor overbearing. The key is that she is very calm and humble, and she is not arrogant at all.

He joked with great interest:
"Miss Megan, as far as I know, your "Big Brother Tangshan" has a total investment of 120 million. If the share ratio is 37, it needs 400 million at the box office to recover the cost. Are you so confident?"

Zhao Yingnan smiled slightly, with a calm tone:
"Mr. Shao, you have also watched this movie. I am very confident in it, in Mr. Bruce Lee, and at the same time, I am also very confident in Shaw Brothers!"

"Hahaha!

Mr. Shao had a hearty laugh and a bold tone:

"Miss Megan is really good at talking. In this way, our Shaw Brothers will get 6%, and [-]% of it will be used for publicity, so as to ensure that this "Big Brother Tangshan" will be a hit, and that your Kunpeng Films will skyrocket!"

Zhao Yingnan was also very straightforward, and generously extended his hand:
"Okay! Shao Xian is really refreshing! I wish us a successful start. In the future, all the films produced by our Kunpeng Films will be released by Shaw Brothers first, and everyone will win and benefit!"

Upon hearing this, the satisfaction in Mr. Shao's eyes became even greater. There was a very crucial signal hidden in these words. Kunpeng would not publish it alone, and she was not here to grab a job.

Mr. Shao held Zhao Yingnan's hand with a brisk tone:
"Okay! Ms. Megan speaks quickly, and women don't give in to men. I wish us a happy cooperation and success in no time!"

"Kakaka~"

At this time, there was a rhythmic light sound in the distance, which was the unique sound of high-heeled shoes, and a graceful, seductive, and beautiful woman walked over from the door.

The woman was wearing a black double-breasted dress with lapel collar, black culottes, high heels, and her hair was casually pulled into a bun.

Behind the woman, there are 6 capable bodyguards in black suits, walking with wind, with an aura of [-] meters!
The one who can possess such an aura is naturally Queen Moran.

Seeing Moran, Zhao Yingnan raised his eyebrows immediately, and his face became gloomy at that time. She nodded to Mr. Shao:

"Mr. Shao, I have something to deal with, and I will chat with you later."

Mr. Shao has gone through the rivers and lakes, so he can see at a glance that something is wrong. It is so obvious that Mu Guiying met Hua Mulan, and it must be a bloodbath.

"Okay, Miss Megan, you go first."

When they got close, Mo Lan retreated from the crowd and walked towards Zhao Yingnan alone. The pony looked vigilant, and led the two strong brothers to approach him. Zhao Yingnan waved his hand gently to him. The pony understood, Slowly receded.

At this time, Moran had come to Zhao Yingnan. She raised her eyebrows and looked Zhao Yingnan up and down, teasingly:

"Brother Tangshan, Kunpeng Films, Ms. Megan, making a movie? Hehe, he really loves you enough, just throwing out millions to play house with you?"

Zhao Yingnan is wearing a pure white lady's haute couture suit today, with her hair in a bun. She is exceptionally capable. She confronts Moran tit-for-tat, and her momentum is not inferior:

"Hmph, Triss, you're not bad, aren't you the underworld queen of Pattaya now? You spend a lot more money than me!"

Having not seen each other for half a year, Moran and Zhao Yingnan were still at odds when they met. Moran sneered, full of sarcasm:

"Megan, you are wrong, I was an investment, and in only half a year, I not only recovered the cost, but also started to make a profit.

And you?He just spends money to amuse you, just like Zhou Youwang's Fenghuo opera princes, tsk tsk, this guy is really good to you, nothing to say! "

Zhao Yingnan's face tightened, his eyes were sharp, and his tone was also sharp: "Mo Lan, you say I'm a concubine? A disaster for the country and the people?"

In desperation, Zhao Yingnan called her real name directly, but Moran didn't care, and his tone was still joking:
"What? Aren't you? By the way, where is your King Zhou You? Didn't you come to such an important occasion as the finale ceremony?"

Hearing this, Zhao Yingnan suddenly chuckled:

"Cut! Don't look for him, he didn't come at all, Moran, are you jealous? He stayed in Hong Kong Island for more than half a year, and he didn't go to Siam once, ha! What a sour smell!"

Moran's heart was punctured, and her face became gloomy. After Du Weiguo, a heartless man, left her in Pattaya, he didn't show up again for half a year.

She came here today to settle accounts with this scumbag. Knowing that Du Weiguo didn't come, she felt somewhat comforted, but she was more disappointed.

Moran lowered his voice:
"Zhao Yingnan, you don't have to be proud. He has been in Hong Kong Island for half a year. Could it be that he can't get along with you every day?"

Zhao Yingnan's eyes couldn't help but a glint of gloom flashed, the complacency just now couldn't be maintained any longer.
