Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 3214 is arrogant enough

"It's normal for Mr. Lin not to recognize me, so I'll introduce myself again. My name is Cai Ziming, and I'm Jet Li's agent now. Does Mr. Lin remember it?"

Cai Ziming has a bad temper. If it were someone else on the phone, he probably wouldn't be so polite.

However, Cai Ziming knows very well what kind of existence Lin Daoqiu is in Hong Kong, especially the Xiangjiang film circle. If he wants to develop in the Hong Kong film circle in the future, Lin Daoqiu cannot afford to offend him, so Cai Ziming takes the initiative to submit to Lin Daoqiu, which is rare. soft.

But what Cai Ziming didn't know was that Lin Daoqiu knew him very well. He knew some things about Cai Ziming, and even knew that Cai Ziming would be shot dead nine times in the head.

There were many rumors about Cai Ziming's death in later generations. The day after the murder, a reporter from "Tian Tian Daily" received a call from a man who claimed to be the killer.

The other party claimed to be a mainland assassin and was hired by a Hong Kong film producer to assassinate Cai Ziming for 100 million Hong Kong dollars. However, he only received 50 afterwards, so he felt dissatisfied and exposed the matter. He also said that he would smuggle back to the mainland soon.

However, according to the police's judgment from the guns used by the killer and the methods of action, the person who killed Cai Ziming should be a foreign killer.

The investigation results released by the police later showed that Cai Ziming's murder was probably related to a business in the Netherlands. Cai Ziming was a middleman in this business and was responsible for finding someone to bring the goods to the Netherlands. He first received 1000 million yuan. The payment was made, but the deliveryman never showed up in the Netherlands.

The consignee in the Netherlands thought that Cai Ziming was trying to steal the money, but the other party did not believe Cai Ziming's explanation, so the conflict between the two parties was difficult to reconcile, and the other party chose to send a killer to kill Cai Ziming.

But no matter what, Cai Ziming's own background is not clean. He went from the mainland to Hong Kong and then to the Netherlands, and then returned to Hong Kong for development. He has never been engaged in serious business, and he often walks along the river without getting his shoes wet. Moreover, he After signing Jet Li, he rejected everyone's invitations to film with Jet Li, which naturally made him a lot of enemies.

Those who are not as powerful as him naturally do not dare to retaliate against Cai Ziming, but after a long time, some capable people will naturally not let him go easily, and Cai Ziming's death is only a matter of time. After all, he, a dragon across the river, wants to Xiangjiang is a mess, but it has offended a large number of people, and wants to monopolize all the benefits. Without an absolute prerequisite, it will only be a matter of time before someone solves it.

"Then do you have anything to do with me?"

Lin Daoqiu's attitude towards Cai Ziming was very ordinary, as if he didn't take Cai Ziming seriously at all.

Cai Ziming was a little unhappy when he heard this, but based on Lin Daoqiu's status in Xiangjiang, Cai Ziming guessed that this was the tone in which he usually spoke to unfamiliar people, right?

"Mr. Lin is going to make a sequel to "The Swordsman" and plans to ask Jet Li to participate in the filming of this movie. Is this happening?"

"You are right. Jet Li played the protagonist in the last movie "Swordsman". I also want him to play in this third movie. Since you are Jet Li's agent, then you can help me arrange the time. I will let you know when I want to join the group."

Lin Daoqiu's words made Cai Ziming furious. This guy really didn't take him seriously, as if he was his little brother. He would do whatever he said.

"Mr. Lin, Jet Li has no time to shoot your movie "Swordsman" because he wants to shoot my movie. I am calling you just to tell you this. Do you understand?"

Cai Ziming felt that since Lin Daoqiu didn't take him seriously, he naturally didn't need to be polite to Lin Daoqiu anymore, and simply made it clear that he would not let him go. "Mr. Cai, I hope you can seriously consider and take back what you just said. Otherwise, I am very worried that your future film career will be difficult to develop, whether in Hong Kong or anywhere else on earth. You What do you think?"

"I don't care, Mr. Lao Lin. I have finished what I want to say. Jet Li wants to film a film for our Fuyi Film Company and has no time to help others film. So we appreciate your kindness. I am calling you just to tell you this." Do you understand what’s going on?”

Fuyi Film Company is a film company founded by Cai Ziming last year. It hired Wan Ziliang, Ye Tong and others to make a movie "I Want to Escape", which took 700 million at the box office. It can be said that it is off to a good start.

Then they invited Russell, Andy Lau and Man Tsz-leung to make a movie called "The Legend of Dragons and Tigers". The box office has exceeded [-] million, and the upward momentum can be said to be very good.

Now Cai Ziming has signed Jet Li to prepare for a big fight, and is even planning to let Jet Li go to Hollywood to collaborate with Stallone in a movie, but these are still being planned.

At this time, Lin Daoqiu suddenly asked Jet Li to film "Swordsman". Although it didn't take much time, for Cai Ziming, Jet Li was now his star, and he would not lend Jet Li out casually.

If Jet Li is lent to Lin Daoqiu today, then if someone else comes to him to borrow someone tomorrow, will he lend it to him?
In order to prevent himself from getting into too much trouble, Cai Ziming simply decided that no matter who came to borrow Jet Li, he would not agree.

"In that case, I wish Mr. Cai good luck and goodbye."

After Lin Daoqiu finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

Although Cai Ziming was angry when he heard the busy signal on the phone, he also felt regretful after he calmed down.

Lin Daoqiu not only has extremely strong influence in Hong Kong, but also overseas, especially in Hollywood. He is now the boss of MGM, and it is said that he has deep friendships with many Hollywood film companies.

If Lin Daoqiu issues a banning order on himself, then the world's major film markets may not be able to accommodate him.

"Mr. Cai, what's wrong with you?"

While Cai Ziming was still thinking about Lin Daoqiu's matter, Jet Li came over at this time. He wanted to discuss the contract dispute with Jiahe with Cai Ziming.

"Ajie, the thing is like this. Lin Daoqiu sent someone to come to me before and said that he wanted to find you to film the third part of "The Swordsman", but I refused. I just called him to explain, but Lin Daoqiu doesn’t seem very happy, what do you think we should do now?”

"Ah...what did you say? Mr. Cai, how can you make Mr. Lin unhappy?"

Jet Li was frightened when he heard that Cai Ziming and Lin Daoqiu were having trouble. You must know that in the Hong Kong film industry, Lin Daoqiu can be said to be the emperor of the film industry. Cai Ziming actually provoked Lin Daoqiu, so what if they It was definitely over all at once.
