Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 745
At Baodao Songshan Airport, as soon as Lin Daoqiu got off the plane, he saw someone waiting for him below.

I remember when I came to Baodao for the first time, the person who came to pick me up was still in the lobby of the airport.

Unexpectedly, this time, they drove the car directly into the airport, it seemed that they really gave themselves enough face.

"Mr. Lin, welcome to Baodao. These are colleagues from the Information Bureau and China Film Group who are here to welcome you."

It was Liao Xiangxiong who came to pick him up. Besides him, there were people from the Information Bureau and China Film Group.

"Thank you Director Liao."

Lin Daoqiu shook hands with the other party in a friendly manner, and then he also shook hands with the people from the Information Bureau and China Film Group.

Then Liao Xiangxiong invited Lin Daoqiu into his car, and the team left the airport.

"Mr. Lin, upon hearing of your presence, Director Song has ordered a banquet at the Grand Hotel to welcome you."

The Grand Hotel is a traditional architectural hotel, founded in 1952 with a long history, and is one of the landmarks of Beishi.

This place is generally used to receive foreign dignitaries, and it is basically a reception place for the authorities of Baodao. The mystery of its semi-official organization makes it difficult for ordinary people to stay in it.

Arranging Lin Daoqiu to the Grand Hotel was enough to give Lin Daoqiu face.

But if they know that Lin Daoqiu will soon start filming two films in the mainland, I don't know what kind of reaction Song Yaolian will have when he hears the news.

"Thank you Director Song for your careful arrangement. I'll have to toast him a few tonight."

It can be said that Lin Daoqiu didn't have the slightest affection for Director Song who was called a chameleon.

Right now, only Lin Daoqiu knows how deep his obsession with power is.

For such a person, Lin Daoqiu has always kept a respectful distance from him, as far as he can get away from him, after all, there is no benefit at all in getting involved with such a person, and he will be used by the other party to make a fuss.

Liao Xiangxiong didn't know what Lin Daoqiu was thinking at this time. After listening to Lin Daoqiu's words, his face was already full of smiles.

After sending Lin Daoqiu to the Grand Hotel and settling him down, Liao Xiangxiong immediately called Song Yaolian to report.

Knowing that Lin Daoqiu looked very satisfied, Song Yaolian also felt very happy. After all, it was a good start for Lin Daoqiu to come to Treasure Island.

Before seven o'clock in the evening, there was a knock on the door of Lin Daoqiu's room. Lin Daoqiu opened the door and found that the person who knocked was the waiter of the Grand Hotel.

"Mr. Lin, Director Song is already waiting for you in the box, please follow me."

Lin Daoqiu nodded, closed the door, and followed the other person downstairs.

As soon as he entered the box, Lin Daoqiu found that there were only Song Yaolian and Liao Xiangxiong in the box.

For Lin Daoqiu, of course, the fewer people the better, after all he doesn't know anyone here, and he doesn't really want to socialize with those strangers.

"You are Mr. Lin Daoqiulin, you have known your name for a long time, and I am Song Yaolian."

When Song Yaolian saw Lin Daoqiu, although he looked normal on his face, he was already surprised by Lin Daoqiu's youth in his heart.

When I was 22 years old, I was a student who had just graduated from university and was going to study abroad.

But the Mr. Lin in front of him not only enjoys a high reputation internationally, but he is also known as a movie tycoon in Xiangjiang, which is simply incredible.

"Hello Director Song, thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to entertain me."

Lin Daoqiu's attitude was very average, neither very enthusiastic nor indifferent.

At least in Song Yaolian's view, it is still within his acceptable range.

"Wherever it is, these things should be done. After all, when a big man like Mr. Lin comes to Treasure Island, I naturally want to do my best as a landlord. It would be too extravagant to say thank you."

Song Yaolian invited Lin Daoqiu to sit down, and then asked people to serve the food.

I heard that Lin Daoqiu seems to be from Guangdong Province, so today Song Yaolian asked the chefs of the Grand Hotel to prepare dishes unique to Guangdong Province.

It has to be said that in order to satisfy Lin Daoqiu, Song Yaolian still spent some effort in it.

Roast goose, boiled prawns, roast suckling pig, salt-baked chicken, plates of delicacies were served on the table.

"Mr. Lin, please taste it and see how these dishes are cooked."

Song Yaolian made a gesture of invitation, Lin Daoqiu nodded first, then picked up a prawn, dipped it in soy sauce and shredded ginger, and put it in his mouth. It was sweet and delicious, and the meat was tight. Vulgar.

In addition, the chefs here are all from the mainland, so they naturally continue the traditional cooking methods and methods.

"Well, the taste is very good, very authentic."

Lin Daoqiu nodded while eating, it seemed that he really liked these dishes.

When Lin Daoqiu had a good meal, Song Yaolian was happy to see him. As long as he took good care of the other party, the next thing to talk about would be much easier.

"Mr. Lin, let me toast you."

After eating vegetables and toasting, Song Yaolian didn't talk about anything with Lin Daoqiu, as if he held a banquet today just to treat Lin Daoqiu to a meal.

After a few glasses of wine, Song Yaolian picked up a piece of meat, chewed it in his mouth, and then suddenly sighed.

"Hey……"

Lin Daoqiu was not deaf, he was sitting next to Song Yaolian, and when he heard Song Yaolian sighed suddenly, he wanted to pretend he couldn't hear him, but obviously in this situation, it was impossible.

"What's wrong with Director Song? Doesn't this dish suit your taste?"

Lin Daoqiu looked at Song Yaolian in surprise, pretending not to know why the other party was sighing.

"Mr. Lin doesn't know. I am worried about the international situation of Baodao. I believe you should also know that in recent years, the outside world has been changing. Under such circumstances, we need international support. .”

Lin Daoqiu nodded as he listened, but it was a pity that what Song Yaolian said basically went in his left ear and out of his right ear.

"Mr. Lin, I know that you have great influence internationally, especially in Hollywood. If possible, I hope you can help us more and help us to speak out internationally."

Song Yaolian was not polite at all, he wanted to ask Lin Daoqiu to help them speak up.

"Director Song, I'm just a filmmaker. I don't know anyone in Hollywood. I can't do anything if you ask me to speak up."

Lin Daoqiu shook his head with a wry smile.

In fact, Song Yaolian also knew that when Lin Daoqiu was filming in Hollywood, he really had no contact with people in this area.

"Mr. Lin, if you didn't know each other before, it doesn't mean you won't know each other in the future. If you haven't been in touch with it before, you can try to get in touch with it now. In fact, sometimes things are not as difficult as you think. Maybe this is actually just an easy task. thing."
