The king of ghost horse comedy

Chapter 710 A New Journey
Time continued to fast forward, and in the second half of the year, "Project A" by Hong Jingbao, Cheng Long, and Yuan Biao was grandly released in the United States.This movie has continued the popularity of "Project A", "Cannonball Run", "Golden Jade" and other movies. It was released for one and a half months and earned 8000 million US dollars at the North American box office. Although it cannot be compared with Hollywood action movies, it is comparable. Compared with Hong Kong movies, this box office is already quite exciting.

After the release of the funny romantic comedy "I Love Rolando" written and directed by Wang Jing and starring Guan Zhilin and Chen Baixiang, the box office received 1000 to [-] million Hong Kong dollars.For Guan Zhilin, a newcomer, it is already very remarkable. Guan Zhilin quickly became popular because of her outstanding beauty. Together with Zheng Wenya, Chen Yulian and Zhong Chuhong, they are called the four golden flowers of the Xu family.She was also dubbed a great beauty by the Hong Kong media, and she was regarded as the embodiment of beauty just like Lin Qingxia. From now on, whenever there are appraisals in newspapers and magazines, Guan Zhilin is bound to be on the list and rank in the front row.

Lin Qingxia's "Royal Sister: The Royal Warrior" was also grandly released on Christmas. This time, Lin Qingxia took the lead as the female star, and cooperated with action boy Lu Liangwei and Japanese first-line movie star Chiba Shinichi to present an audio-visual presentation for Hong Kong fans. feast.In "Royal Warrior", although Lin Qingxia challenged an action scene for the first time, but because she had received three months of hell-like death training before, she made her fight vigorously, without the slightest weakness of the previous literary girls.And her valiant and heroic image is also eye-catching, which has attracted more fans of different levels for her, making Lin Qingxia's popularity soar again. It is estimated that no one can replace her status as the number one actress in the Chinese world in a short time up.

Deng Lijun entered Japan and started her own tour after the entry ban was lifted, because she had already achieved considerable success in the United States, and many Japanese cultures were imitated from the United States, so Deng Lijun's English album was also very popular in Japan. Welcome, and her luxurious concert created by the American team is also widely welcomed by Japanese fans.Japanese fans have been waiting for a year to hear her concert.From the day the concert tickets went on sale, within a few hours, more than [-] tickets were sold out, which also demonstrated Deng Lijun's popularity.After leaving Japan for a year, not only did it not decrease, but on the contrary, it increased even more.

In the United States, the first "Lord of the Rings" "The Lord of the Rings" was finally filmed after ups and downs and tribulations, and was released on Christmas. The total cost of this film is 8000 million US dollars, making it the most expensive film in the world today.Of course, if it weren't for Richard and David who swept up the filming funds, the investment in this film could actually be higher.After all, this is the first part of the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy. Too many sets need to be built in the early stage, and this investment accounts for a relatively large proportion.

After the release of "The Lord of the Rings", it attracted a lot of bad reviews. People accused the film of being shoddy and thought that it did not meet the "Lord of the Rings" in their minds.Bad special effects, poor acting, no redeeming qualities, etc.But what is strange is that although the word of mouth is extremely poor, the box office is extremely high. This phenomenon is somewhat similar to the situation of domestic blockbusters released in the new century. The worse the word of mouth, the higher the box office.Although this is a relatively strange phenomenon, there are actually traces to follow, and it is not as difficult to understand as imagined.

The reason why the box office of "The Lord of the Rings" is relatively high is mainly because of the ups and downs in the filming of this film, which has already whetted people's appetite, and "The Lord of the Rings" is called the Western version. The status of the fantasy works of "Journey to the West" in Western countries can also be seen.Even if the shooting is relatively poor, but because of the large number of readers, the audience base is relatively strong.In addition, the unanimous bad reviews also indirectly played a role in publicity, and people couldn't help but want to see how bad it is.

Therefore, the more people cursed, the more fierce the box office of "The Lord of the Rings" was, which attracted some sociologists to analyze and investigate.But Xu Guanwu and other investors don't care so much, as long as they have money, it's great for them. The box office of "The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" reached nearly [-] million U.S. dollars, and everyone made a fortune.And "The Two Towers of the Lord of the Rings" also took advantage of the opportunity to start filming again.Seeing the popularity of the first film, people will not give up filming the second film.

Just when "The Fellowship of the Ring" hit the theaters, the elder Darryl Zanjuk also died of a serious illness. Because he was implicated by his son Richard Zanjuk, there were almost no one after Daryl's death. Willing to attend his funeral, only a few people including Xu Guanwu and Lei Shidong were present.Richard and David hid in the Russian consulate in Spain because they were summoned by the US police earlier. They hid there for almost a year and never dared to come out again.He didn't come to his father's funeral this time either.Xu Guanwu couldn't help but sigh.

……

During the Spring Festival, the Xu Brothers' "Modern Bodyguard" was released. This hilarious Xu comedy brought a lot of joy to the New Year of Hong Kong citizens.Just when everyone was reuniting to celebrate the Spring Festival, Xu Guanwu was a little impatient, because Hu Yinmeng in the United States was about to give birth at this moment.Xu Guanwu couldn't help feeling as if his heart was pierced when he thought of his woman who was expecting to give birth in the hospital with a big belly, but he couldn't be with her by his side.Just a week after the Spring Festival, Xu Guanwu immediately found an excuse to go to the United States, and gave birth to his first child with Hu Yinmeng, a daughter. Xu Guanwu named her Hu Yiqing.

After Hu Yinmeng gave birth to her daughter, she decided to leave the United States and return to Taiwan, because she was not used to eating in the United States, and she did not want her daughter to grow up in a place like the United States.Xu Guanwu agreed with her. He already owed Hu Yinmeng a lot emotionally, so he also wanted to make up for her shortcomings as much as possible.

News of Hu Yinmeng's out-of-wedlock childbirth spread quickly in Taiwan, and people speculated about the child's fatherhood.Many people speculated that it was Li Ao's according to the time. After all, the pregnancy was in October, and the date was almost around the time of marriage.And some people suspected that it was Xu Guanwu's. After all, he had a criminal record of abducting Taiwanese beauties before, and he made Miss Lin pregnant.Faced with many speculations, Hu Yinmeng kept silent. After returning to Taiwan, she hid in the villa in Yangmingshan and lived a life of seclusion.

Both Lin Qingxia and Zhao Yazhi also suspected that the child belonged to Xu Guanwu, but Hu Yinmeng clarified for Xu Guanwu that the child was not his but was born to her and another Chinese whom she met in the United States. Knot.Lin Qingxia and Zhao Yazhi half believed Hu Yinmeng's explanation, but there was no way to force her to admit it, so they had to give up.

After the Spring Festival, another big news is that Deng Lijun announced her retirement, and released a selection album since her debut, and announced the holding of a farewell concert tour.The news shocked the whole world. Deng Lijun is only 30 years old now, which is the best age for an artist. She has both beauty, physical strength and experience. In addition, she is now very popular. There is no need to announce her retirement now.But Deng Lijun still raised it, and the record company did not stop her.

The subsequent farewell concert was performed for two consecutive months, and the last one was set in Hong Kong, and the date was set on Deng Lijun's birthday.At the end of the last concert, the audience stood up and sang the birthday song for Deng Lijun, and Deng Lijun also held a wheat closing ceremony with tears in her eyes. Since then, the most famous singer in the history of the Chinese music scene has stepped down from the altar.Deng Lijun's glorious retirement brought endless sadness to the fans. For a while, fans in Taiwan, Japan, Nanyang, and Hong Kong were in agony.

But then there was a piece of news that made Hong Kong people panic even more.The Sino-British Hong Kong negotiations, which existed only in legends and did not exist at all, announced that they would start negotiations in the imperial capital in May.

The news that mainland China is going to take back Hong Kong came. At first, people thought it was a fantasy, but as the mainland continued to speak out, and the British and Hong Kong British governments retreated steadily, the people of Hong Kong finally realized that something was wrong. They really had Possibly abandoned.

For a time, Hong Kong's stock market plummeted, real estate plummeted, and a large number of Hong Kong people began to prepare for immigration. Green cards in the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada and other places were hard to find.

At this time, people discovered Xu Guanwu's wisdom and wisdom. He had already started to sell the real estate in his hands one after another the year before last, and transferred a large amount of funds abroad. Today, the Xu Group in Hong Kong is just an inconspicuous part of his business empire. , Compared with the total assets, it is only a drop in the bucket.

Thinking that Xu Guanwu sold real estate two years ago and was criticized by others for investing in the United States and other places. Now people want to hug Xu Guanwu's thigh and kiss him fiercely. Why didn't they realize the intention of Xu Guanwu?Now most of his funds are abroad, no matter whether Hong Kong can take them back or not, his losses will not be too big. This kind of vision is really enviable.

However, after the Hong Kong stock market plummeted and the real estate plummeted, the previous financial wave receded, and we saw who was not wearing a swimsuit.Chen Songqing, chairman of Carrian Group, who was previously known as Xu Guanwu's second, finally revealed his true colors at this moment. He is not at all the son of a high-ranking official in the Mainland, nor is he the agent of a big family in Nanyang. He is just a small real estate developer in Singapore. By bribing Malaysian bank managers in Hong Kong, they obtained a lot of financial support.And after a series of hype, he made his own identity infinite myth, and became a master of management and investment expert in people's minds, which made the stock price of Carrian Group, a subsidiary of his company, skyrocket and grabbed a lot of money.

And Chen Songqing's investment strategy is to keep buying, buying and buying again, relying on his influence to increase the stock market price and make profits.But also because of such continuous acquisitions and acquisitions, Carrian Group has an astonishingly high debt ratio and is not as profitable as the legend.Now that the stock market has collapsed, the real estate market has collapsed, Carrian Group's capital chain is broken, and it cannot pay huge interest on schedule, which directly exposes its true colors.The so-called muddy feet come out of the water, and the Carrian Group, which was once a powerful company, turned out to be nothing more than an empty shell, and quickly declared bankruptcy due to insolvency.

And Jiayi TV Station, which is supported by Carrian Group, also announced its bankruptcy and closed down, and a large number of artists of Jiayi TV Station lost their jobs. Under the current dire economic difficulties, it can't help but be miserable.Even a first-line star of Jiayi like Zheng Yuling was forced to hold a sign in front of the Hong Kong Governor's Mansion to protest.Of course, Jiayi's bankruptcy also gave TVB and ATV an opportunity, and then the artists of Jiayi TV were divided up by the two TV stations, and some of them flowed into the film industry.

Carrian Group's bankruptcy and liquidation further caused the stockholders to panic, the stock market plummeted rapidly, and many listed companies were miserable and complained endlessly.

Xu Guanwu began to contact Li Jiacheng, Huo Yingdong, Li Zhaoji, Hu Yingxiang and others to prepare for bottom hunting. If the Hong Kong stock market really collapses and the real estate market really collapses, then those rich people who rely on the stock market and the real estate market to make their fortunes will have a hard time.Moreover, Hong Kong's current economic slump is actually related to the deliberate suppression of the British Hong Kong government. The purpose is to disrupt Hong Kong's economy and increase its bargaining chips in negotiations.

In response to the shamelessness of the British Hong Kong government and to support the mainland, Xu Guanwu specially mobilized a large sum of foreign funds of about 20 billion U.S. dollars to return to Hong Kong's bottom-hunting stock market and property market to show that he is definitely not a capitalist roader and is absolutely optimistic about Hong Kong's economy. building.

"I, Xu Guanwu, are back!" Holding a huge amount of money in his hand, Xu Guanwu led the assembled Hong Kong rich and powerful to start a new round of journey.
