Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 1136 Praising You as a Martial Arts Superstar

Jet Li returned to the residence, and after opening the door, Huang Qiuyan was already waiting for him inside.

As Jet Li's senior sister, Huang Qiuyan and Jet Li grew up together in the martial arts team. This time she came to LA to treat her legs, and she also accompanied Jet Li throughout the whole process.

Before that, everyone felt that Jet Li and Huang Qiuyan had come together.

Because I grew up in the martial arts team, I didn't have much contact with the outside world, and the people in the team usually get in touch with the most.

After being together for a long time, Huang Qiuyan gradually began to like this handsome junior, and cared for him even more.

Jet Li and his mother depended on each other since he was a child, and his family situation was not very good. Huang Qiuyan would often go shopping to visit Jet Li and his mother.

You must know that Huang Qiuyan's behavior was really unusual in that era when thinking was still very conservative.

And she didn't tell her family about her love relationship with Jet Li, she just said that her younger brother Jet Li's family's financial conditions were poor.

Jet Li's father died very early due to a work accident, and only his mother was raising his siblings, so she would take more care of this junior.

But over time, the two came together like this.

According to the later Jet Li once said in an interview, the two came together because they became famous too early at that time, and they didn't know what love was when they were very young, and they just felt very happy with each other.

This situation continued until after the filming of "Shaolin Temple", Jet Li became a hit, and then he worried that if he broke up at this time, he would be sorry for others, and he was also afraid that everyone would misunderstand him as a heartless person.

So Jet Li approached Zhang Xinyan, the director of "Shaolin Temple", and made the second film, introducing Huang Qiuyan as the heroine. He felt that this would give him peace of mind.

But I never thought that Jet Li's leg injury became more and more serious. After filming "Shaolin Boy", he even had trouble walking, so he had to go to LA to treat his leg.

"Ajie, what did that Mr. He say?"

Huang Qiuyan knew that Jet Li went to see He Guanchang today, but she didn't know who the other party was or what they wanted to talk about.

Jet Li smiled, then walked to the sofa and sat down with the support of the other party.

"Don't be so frowning. It's a good thing that Mr. He came to me today. He said that as long as I sign a contract with Golden Harvest, they will not only pay for the leg treatment, but also add a signing bonus of 200 million Hong Kong dollars."

Although he had filmed "Shaolin Temple" and "Shaolin Kid" before, Jet Li actually didn't make any money at all, and now even treating his legs has become a big problem.

However, the appearance of He Guanchang helped Jet Li solve the immediate predicament. As long as he signs to Golden Harvest, not only will he not have to worry about his legs, but he can also get a signing bonus of 200 million Hong Kong dollars. Is there anything better than this?

"Mr. He really said that? Then what are you still worried about?"

After hearing what Jet Li said, Huang Qiuyan immediately beamed with joy. To her, the 200 million Hong Kong dollars was of secondary importance. The most important thing was that the other party was willing to pay for Jet Li's legs. This was the most important thing.

In fact, Jet Li was already emotional during the talk just now, but he felt that if he agreed immediately, he would feel that he was too casual and had no opinions at all.

Moreover, he didn't know the company of Golden Harvest, so he had to inquire about the details of Golden Harvest before deciding whether to sign the contract.

"I want to get to know Golden Harvest first. If there is no problem, then I will sign."

Huang Qiuyan felt that Jet Li was right to do this, after all, such an important matter as signing a contract must not be hasty.

"Then you take a rest first, I will cook."

After Huang Qiuyan finished speaking, she got up and went to cook for the two of them.

Jet Li was sitting on the sofa, looking at the ceiling, and then began to wander into the void.

Although Jet Li didn't know Golden Harvest, a well-known company in Xiangjiang, if he asked relevant industry insiders, he would be able to get the answer immediately.

Even though Golden Harvest's influence in Xiangjiang has indeed declined a lot compared to before, Golden Harvest is still one of the three major film companies in Xiangjiang at this time.

After entrusting someone to inquire about Jiahe's details, after a few days, Jet Li asked He Guanchang out again.

"Mr. He, I wonder if what you said a few days ago still counts?"

Jet Li has decided to sign to Golden Harvest.

He Guanchang was already aware of this when he heard the other party's question, so he nodded immediately.

"Mr. Li, don't worry, as long as you are willing to sign with Golden Harvest, we will not only pay for your leg treatment, but also give you a signing bonus of 200 million Hong Kong dollars. I have already brought the contract."

After He Guanchang finished speaking, he took out the contract and handed it to Jet Li.

Jet Li took the contract and read it carefully.

The term of the contract is as long as ten years. In addition to the signing bonus, there is a salary of 100 million for each film.

Seeing this, although Jet Li looked sinking on the surface, his heart was already throbbing.

One must know that he is still a poor young man right now, facing such a big contract in front of him, it is hard for Jet Li not to be moved.

"Since Mr. He has so much confidence in me, I have nothing to worry about."

After Jet Li finished speaking, he signed his name on the contract.

After watching Jet Li signed his name, He Guanchang couldn't help showing a happy smile on his face.

Such a martial arts superstar was snatched by Golden Harvest in this way, and the cost was only less than 300 million Hong Kong dollars. Such a good thing is really impossible to find with a lantern.

"Ajie, you are welcome to join Golden Harvest Film Company. I guarantee that Golden Harvest will make you a top martial arts superstar in Hong Kong, just like Jackie Chan and Sammo Hung."

Jet Li doesn't know much about Jackie Chan and Sammo Hung because he doesn't usually watch movies.

But listening to what He Guanchang said, Jet Li can still tell that Jackie Chan and Sammo Hung should be very popular in Xiangjiang, and they should be top martial arts stars.

Having won so many championships by himself, it must be very powerful if he can become a top martial arts superstar.

But the top priority now is to heal my legs, otherwise, let alone a martial arts star, I am afraid that even life in the future will be very difficult.

Although the signing of Jet Li by Golden Harvest was very secretive, rumors spread from Golden Harvest not long after.

When Lin Daoqiu knew about this, all he had left was regret.

Unexpectedly, Golden Harvest would be the first to sign Jet Li away, which is considered a big deal for them.

It is almost impossible to find an excellent action movie actor like Jet Li.
