Year: I had a good time when I was young

Chapter 213 The Murderer Goes to Be the Referee
After listening to Chu Xiangqian's box office forecast for Ah San, the three of Charles couldn't help thinking that Chu Xiangqian should have done an investigation.

Then he thought about his understanding of Ah San in his heart, and soon realized that Chu Xiangqian's estimate seemed a bit underestimated.

Even seriously underestimated.

In this era, Ah San's movies are not only banned from romantic movies, but even some movies related to people's livelihood are not allowed to be released.

However, the autonomy of each state is very large. If Mountbatten had not lobbied a large number of native states seven or eight years ago, it would have been possible to divide it into hundreds of small states.

As long as you spend some money, bribe the local leaders, and play some romantic movies, no one cares.

The three of Charles even felt that as long as they find a high-caste woman with fair skin as the protagonist, the box office will definitely explode.

After Chu Xiangqian finished speaking, he was paying attention to the expressions of the three of them. When he saw the guy named Hahn's eyes light up, he knew that the other party was very optimistic about the market of landscape films in Ah San's side.

But he did underestimate Ah San's market.

"Gentlemen, if I authorize you to distribute a landscape film that is popular in South Korea, the island country, and the local area for 1 Hong Kong dollars, can it be exchanged for you not to care about tonight's affairs?"

"Chu, in principle, if we become partners, we will naturally favor you, but the question is, how many landscape films can you make every year?

And among these movies, how many of them can you guarantee to be popular? "

Chu Xiangqian thought for a while and said, "A popular landscape movie, I think it should be no problem to earn 20 Hong Kong dollars from Ah San, right Superintendent Hahn?"

Hahn was taken aback for a moment, and then he understood the excitement in his heart just now, which was seen by Chu Qianqian.

Assistant Director Blair gave Hahn a look, and before he could speak, he interjected, "Chu, how about five movies a year?
If it is not enough, then rely on quantity to reach the benchmark of 100 million Hong Kong dollars.

If it still fails, you have to authorize us to show the film in other European countries. "

"In principle, there is no problem, but if it is sent to Europe, a movie costs 10 yuan."

Chu Xiangqian did not ask for a high price, because in addition to Southeast Asia, South Korea, and the island countries, there is also the possible future of the United States, and he has no consideration for the European market at all.

There is also a high probability that there will be no channels for distribution to Europe.

Even if he doesn't agree, Blair and his group can sell it secretly.

Even if it is found, the other party can still say that someone from Ah San's side bought the film and printed it privately.

So it's better to open up the market by relying on romantic movies, and the kung fu movies I make in the future can also be distributed to the Commonwealth countries by relying on these ghosts.

Chu Xiangqian stood up, stretched out his hand to Blair and said with a smile, "It's a pleasant cooperation."

Blair held Chu Xiangqian's hand, "It's a pleasant cooperation."

After the agreement was reached, the atmosphere quickly became more harmonious.

Half an hour later, accompanied by the three of Blair, Chu Xiangqian reappeared in the plainclothes office on the second floor.

Charles clapped his hands and said to Lei Luo and others, "We have appointed Mr. Chu as the investigation consultant for this case, and Mr. Chu has the right to supervise during the investigation of the case.

And, if there are clues and any progress, he will report to me and Assistant Director Blair, understand? "

Lei Luo and the others were stunned. Isn't this letting the murderer be the referee?

Secretly said that Chu Xiangqian must have given some great benefits to the ghosts.

But after thinking about it, the lame man died, his wife died, and his territory became vacant.

Who would have thought that the superior would definitely have to spend money to buy off the top and bottom, and in the past the money was only handed over to Lei Luo, but with Chu Xiangqian staring at him, the Guilao's share would be indispensable.

Even Chu Xiangqian had to give a copy, lest he make small reports behind his back.

Moreover, wealth such as family property has also become ownerless items.

Whoever gets it first can go to someone to register for help, and then they can change it to their own name.

After careful calculation, Lai Hao has accumulated quite a lot of assets in the past few years.

Lei Luo and the others hurriedly saluted, while the three of Blair smiled and reached out to shake Chu Qianqian's hand, "Chu, then I will trouble you."

Chu Xiangqian laughed, "It should."

After seeing off the three ghosts, Chu Xiangqian took Lei Luo to the window of the office and lit him a thin cigar.

He smiled and said, "Brother Luo, you can see that the ghost only cares about profit. But don't worry, I don't care about the specific actions and how to divide the land and assets vacated by Laihao, as long as you don't lose the ghost's share." That's fine.

But I don't want to wake up tomorrow, and there are still people holding the flag with the initials of "Yi". "

Lei Luo couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief. Chu Xiangqian meant that he didn't pay any money, and paying the money was equivalent to buying everyone to clean up the remaining influence of Lai Hao.

This is not difficult for Lei Luo.

Even in this situation, I wish to help Chu Xiangqian get rid of the influence of the word "Yi" as soon as possible.

In case Chu Xiangqian took the opportunity to intervene in the power within the police force, and even more afraid that he would jump out and raise the flag to stand on the top of the mountain.

As soon as he thought that among Chu Xiangqian's men, there were even snipers who killed Lihao and his wife in two shots, Lei Luo shuddered.

Coupled with a group of subordinates who can forcibly kill more than a dozen people including Dawei and Dawei, not to mention those gangster bosses, even if he, the chief inspector of Zonghua, is ambushed by these people, the ending will definitely be the same as Dawei.

As for why he didn't want to see the banner with the initials of Yi, it was nothing more than asking Li Hao's subordinates to change their names, or to seek refuge with other forces.

However, if the police force takes action directly, it will inevitably make other gangs feel cold.

Then we can only let people on the road grab the territory of the prefix.

When there is a fight, there will be a legitimate reason for the police force to enter the game, and it will not cause panic among Taoists.

Lei Luo nodded and asked with a smile, "Don't worry, no one will remember Lai Hao in custody tomorrow morning. No one will care about him anymore."

As soon as the two settled, the atmosphere began to ease.

Seeing the two of them talking and laughing, and lighting cigarettes for each other, more than a dozen plainclothes felt relieved, but at the same time, they couldn't help feeling afraid of Chu Xiangqian, and then admired him again.

At around 7 o'clock in the morning, Zhu Youzai walked in with a beautiful woman, and Chu looked forward and knew that this woman was Rose.

Lei Luo's heart moved, and he thought to himself that there was no need to kill this woman.

It was Chu Xiangqian who had an enmity with her, not herself.

Keeping the roses can be regarded as a restraint on Chu Xiangqian.

He whispered to Chu Xiangqian, "Do you want her to talk to the person with the prefix Yi?
If they can reach an agreement, she will take over the territory of Yizi, and then pay an entrance fee of 500 million? "

Chu Xiangqian rolled his eyes at Lei Luo with a bit of tiredness, of course he knew what this guy was thinking.

The so-called cutting grass does not remove its roots, but the spring breeze blows and regenerates.

Since you, Lei Luo, have bad intentions, don't blame yourself for not giving you face.

He made up his mind to kill Rose, but he said, "The old rule was that if you want to join a gang, you have to submit a certificate of approval.

If she wanted to be in the position, besides paying money, she had to show her attitude.

At the same time, you have to convince other forces, otherwise you won't be at ease if you use her, Brother Luo, right? "

Lei Luo curled his lips inwardly, what worries you is Chu Xiangqian.As for the nomination certificate, it is nothing more than asking Rose to clean up Lai Hao's henchmen.

To tell the outside world, Rose has been following Lai Hao since she was a teenager. By then, this woman will not only be a [-]-year-old boy, but the man she brought back from Southeast Asia may have other thoughts.

Not only is it possible to kill her and become the boss by himself, but he is also definitely unwilling to avenge Laihao.

On the surface, the person with the prefix "Yi" became Rose's subordinate, but secretly he would not submit to her control.

The probability is the same as those who came from Southeast Asia, looking forward to this woman's death.

Seeing Chu Xiangqian say this, Lei Luo said, "Okay, I'll let Lard Boy go and talk to the people with the prefix "Yi". Those who are disobedient will be dealt with by Rose."

At noon, Lan Gang and Fei Bo came back one after the other and said that one of Hua Ziming and the dumb Ah Qi, the gold medal thugs under Laihao's men, were arrested and the other was shot dead on the spot.

I heard that the mute was very brave, if it wasn't for Lan Gang who didn't want to let him live in the first place, he would shoot as soon as he encountered him.

But even so, it took twenty or thirty bullets before he lost his mobility.

Otherwise, he might really get hurt by him, or kill one or two plainclothes.

Only then did Chu Xiangqian feel relieved, looked at Lei Luo, and then at Rose who had been sitting quietly.

Knowing what Chu Xiangqian meant, Lei Luo got up and walked to Rose, "Follow Lard Boy, kill Hua Zaiming with your own hands, and then go talk to the one with the prefix Yi, understand?"

Rose nodded expressionlessly, got up and followed Lard Boy and seven or eight people out.

And Chu Xiangqian let Titmouse follow him all the way.

Seeing with her own eyes that no matter how Hua Zaiming begged for mercy or how she talked about her friendship back then, Rose killed Hua Zaiming without hesitation.

Then he took people to negotiate with the person at the head of Yi.

Those bigwigs at the beginning of Yi, some want to be in the top position, and some want to buy peace.

Seeing that Rose brought someone to the door to talk, and it was Lard Boy who followed, after much deliberation, she finally agreed to meet at the hall.

In this process, apart from quarrels and threats, all that remains is the distribution of benefits.

Chu Xiangqian had seen everything clearly through the tits, and when the two groups had a similar conversation, it was already past 9 o'clock in the evening.

Rose proudly walked out of the gate of the hall, a silver light flashed, and the tit's claw cut through the artery on Rose's neck.

Standing on a branch not far away, looking at the dozen or so people following Rose, he looked at Rose who suddenly stopped in surprise.

Within a few seconds, a trace of blood mist flew out from Rose's neck, and the scene suddenly became chaotic.

If it weren't for the presence of lard boy and seven or eight plainclothes, a fight would have been inevitable.

The next day, Chu Xiangqian learned from Fei Bo that the group of men that Rose brought from Yue Nan had guns at three or four o'clock last night, and attacked the first boss of Yizi who had strongly opposed to relying on Rose before.

The two groups are now fighting hard.

Now, even if some outsiders suspect that Rose was killed by Chu Xiangqian, it doesn't matter anymore.

Moreover, Rose died for no apparent reason in the entrance of Yizitou under the eyes of a dozen people, and Yizitou couldn't get out.

Some people even suspected that Rose's own subordinates blamed Yi Zitou and Chu Xiangqian.

Not to mention, this kind of conspiracy theory is quite popular.

Then it came out that Chu Xiangqian had dinner at Lei Luo's house last night and didn't leave until after 10 o'clock. During this period, not only did he not go out, but he also drank and chatted with Lei Luo, Baifanyu, Lan Gang, and Fei Bo.

Didn't even make a phone call.

In this way, it became real all at once, Rose either died at the hands of his own subordinates, or was killed by the people at the beginning of Yi.

After several days of turmoil, the leaders of the two groups were either killed or arrested by the police, waiting to be put in prison.

And the territory of Yizitou, as well as the territory that Rose had conquered before, were also swallowed by other forces.

Only then did Chu Xiangqian call Shang Sanjiangshui, and asked him to find the two island women from last time.

Speaking of the studios on Hong Kong Island, Shaw Brothers’ Clear Water Bay studio is not the only one in this period of 60 years.

In terms of scale, the Clear Water Bay studio, which has not yet been expanded, is not as big as the Diamond Hill studio.

The boss of the Diamond Hill studio is Cao Dahua, who has been active in the film industry for five or sixty years.

In the 60s, the old man had at least several million cash in his hands, and owned half a street of property, a palace theater, a studio and several film companies.

He also opened several import and export companies in partnership with his relatives.

At the peak, his net worth definitely exceeded hundreds of millions.

According to the valuation of the new millennium, the real estate alone is worth at least 1500 billion.

It's a pity that while his wealth increased rapidly, he actually got involved in gambling. In just a few years, he lost all his family fortune to the gambling king in Macau.

Since Chu Xiangqian wants to enter the film industry and then join the TV media industry, he will naturally not forget that he is a rich boy.

After Sanjiangshui found the two island women who were used to seduce and consume boxing champion Tornado last time.

Chu Xiangqian asked him to put aside the matter of the market under construction at the fire station and go to Macau by boat.

They paid a doorman in Lisboa to let him call Sanjiangshui when he saw Cao Dahua enter Lisboa.

After seeing those two island country women, Chu Xiangqian understood why the ghost tornado was so obsessed with these two women.

Judging from the aesthetics of the Celestials, the appearance can only be considered good, but with a weak appearance, let alone Europeans and Americans, even Chu looked forward, feeling faintly protective.

No wonder the ghost tornado stayed in the room for two consecutive days.

After choosing the heroine of the Fengyue film, the rest is very simple.

Come up with a script, spend money to find a director, crew, and actors to start filming.

But before that, Chu Xiangqian asked Baifanyu to meet, and the film was naturally under the name of Baifanyu's film company.

The old man saw that Chu Xiangqian didn't even sign the script with his own name, and instead used a screenwriter's name instead.

He followed suit and put the film company on the head of a younger brother.

With the addition of Baifanyu, no one dared not give face to any director or actor Chu Xiangqian had a crush on.

It's hard to say whether you will catch a movie or not, but if you meet up and have a meal, you are always on call.

Fortunately, Chu Xiangqian is not stupid, so naturally he won't actually make that kind of movie about fighting between men and women.

In addition, there are indeed a lot of classic plots in my mind, and I just put them together, and with the perfection of a few screenwriters, the script of a movie is completed.

These days, no matter the director, behind-the-scenes or actors, all get a fixed salary.

Faced with a salary of 10 yuan for 1000 days, Baifanyu could easily hire a director who was still famous at the time.

After the introduction of the director, the behind-the-scenes teams such as photography and lighting were easily set up.

After the filming started, if Chu Xiangqian hadn't asked so much, the "Fu Tuan" series of films might have been filmed in three days.

A week later, while smoking a cigar, Bai Fanyu lightly bumped Chu Xiangqian with his shoulder.

Sitting facing the front row, the two ghosts, Wallace and Charles, who had been staring at the big screen, whispered in Chaozhou dialect, "Ah Chu, look at this, these ghosts also like your movie."

Chu Xiangqian waved his hand hurriedly, "Uncle, don't talk nonsense. What does this movie have to do with me?"

"Okay, okay", Baifanyu rolled his eyes, "It's the head office of the film company under my name!"

Only then did Chu Xiangqian focus on the screen again, and waited for a while before saying, "If this film is popular in Hong Kong Island, I think you can open several Fenglou and nightclubs all dressed in kimonos.

Or simply find some women from the island country, and the business should be good. "

After finishing speaking, Chu Xiangqian said that in the past few years in the island country, hundreds of thousands of women were hired and coaxed by the island country government to serve the soldiers of the United States.

There is also the story of a large number of mixed-race births.

Calculated in terms of time, the first batch of mixed-race children would reach adulthood in less than two or three years.

And these people must not have a better life in the rigid and conservative environment of the island country.

Rice fish immediately became interested.

Although the economy of the island country has shown signs of recovery since the 60s, life at the bottom is still very difficult.

Otherwise, there will be no island country women doing business on Hong Kong Island.

Chu Xiangqian didn't care how Baifanyu harmed the island country, and he thought in his heart that the number of viewers of the small open-air movie in the two remote areas of Yuen Long and Tuen Mun last night should be judged.

The popularity of this "futon" is still very good.

Once it is rolled out in other districts, there will be no problem selling HK$30 million at the box office, but the cost of the film is only a little over 6.

Moreover, the open-air theater does not need to pay to the cinema, and it can be shown in one place for two or three days, and then transferred to other places immediately.

It is easy to attract ordinary people from various places to watch, and the ticket price is only 7 or 8 cents, which is about one-third cheaper than movie theaters.

No wonder there will be so many movies in the future. From the day the filming started, I never thought of going to the cinema.

After the rise of videotapes and DVDs in the future, in countries like the United States, a large number of movies will be directly filled into videotapes and sold in the market after they are shot, and they will also be sold to countries such as South America and Europe.

There are even some American film companies that only engage in the video tape business, not only living well, but also earning a lot of money every year.

After the movie ended, the lights came on, and Chu Xiangqian casually threw away the thin cigar in his hand.

He got up and asked Blair and Charles, "Gentlemen, I will give you all of Ah San's market for [-] Hong Kong dollars. Believe me and Mr. Bai's sincerity, you should be able to feel it.

As for the European release, after Ah San's box office comes out, I believe you will be very willing to buy out the broadcasting rights in Europe for 10 yuan. "

Blair smiled at the corner of his mouth, secretly thinking that Chu Xiangqian is really a talent, and he wanted to refuse but still didn't show anything.

On the contrary, it can arouse men's peeping and fantasies even more.

If you think about it, you will know that Ah San's box office should not be low.

He smiled and stretched out his hand, "Chu, I hope to see the second part as soon as possible."

Chu shrugged forward, "If blockbuster movies are so easy to make, I believe you will start a film company yourself."

The two of Blair's hearts tightened. It's not like they haven't discussed this idea these days.

But the end result is to see how Chu Xiangqian is doing, and then copy him, or find a screenwriter to write a script to test the waters.

Now that Chu Xiangqian had broken his mind, the two ghosts couldn't help feeling embarrassed.
