Rebirth: Rising Hong Kong

Chapter 1470 1469 [The dragon and the snake dance! 】

Golden Harvest Film Company.

Zou Wenhuai reached out and touched the "General Manager" nameplate placed on the table, slowly sat behind the desk, took out a large cigar from the cigar box on the table, took a cigar cutter to cut off the cap, and then used it habitually to A long match lit the cigar, and he smoked it leisurely.

It's such a great feeling to be back!

Back then, because Shi Zhijian was kidnapped by pirates and legends tore up votes, Zou Wenhuai's ambitions began to swell, and he planned to team up with He Guanchang and others to force Gong Shi Yufeng and win the control of Golden Harvest, but he did not expect Shi Zhijian to escape from the pirate island and return to Hong Kong. These careerists killed every single one of them!

Then, Shi Zhijian handed over the power of Golden Harvest to Bruce Lee whom he had just met.

Bruce Lee was also very competitive, relying on three or four movies to let Golden Harvest dominate the film industry, and even hit Hollywood!

At that time, Zou Wenhuai thought that he would never have the chance to return to the position of general manager. As long as Bruce Lee existed for a day, he could only be raised by Shi Zhijian.

It's a pity, God is jealous of talents!

Bruce Lee passed away suddenly, and a generation of kung fu superstars fell sadly!

At that time, Zou Wenhuai was also very surprised and very sad. After all, he is a filmmaker and he also very much recognized Bruce Lee's contribution to Hong Kong Kung Fu movies.

However, with the death of Bruce Lee, Golden Harvest lost its backbone, and after that, Zou Wenhuai, who was raised by Shi Zhijian, was used again and became the general manager of Golden Harvest again.

"I got it back, should I be happy or unhappy?" Zou Wenhuai breathed out a puff of smoke, feeling a little tangled in his heart.

Boom boom boom!

There was a hasty knock on the door.

His old friend He Guanchang came over to fetch a document, walking hurriedly and looking a little nervous.

"Achang, what happened? Look at your flustered look!" Zou Wenhuai joked as he exhaled smoke.

"Something really happened!" He Guanchang handed a document to Zou Wenhuai, "These are the six new recruits signed by Mr. Shi, you can take a look first!"

Zou Wenhuai took it, looked it over, and immediately showed a hint of surprise on his face: "It's okay for Tan Yonglin and Lin Qingxia, after all, they are very famous, but the liquidated damages are a little bit more, and we need Jiahe to help pay, but those people behind, what the **** are they?" ?”

"That's right, I'm also very curious!" He Guanchang said, "I have investigated, that Zhou Runfa is just a little TVB actor, and that Zhang Guorong is an unknown little singer who hasn't even released a record. The most outrageous thing is Those two girls, one is a female athlete on the basketball team, and the other is a saleswoman in a department store!"

Zou Wenhuai frowned and looked at the files of Wang Zuxian and Zhong Chuhong, flicked the ash, put the cigar on the ashtray, picked up the glasses from the table, put them on the bridge of the nose, looked at their photos carefully again, and said: It's quite beautiful!"

He Guanchang smiled wryly: "I know what you mean! But the problem is that in this world, you can't be a star just by being beautiful, at least you have to sing well or have acting skills!"

This sentence is quite true. "Vases" are not very popular in this era. Female stars must have acting skills, or they can go directly to Shaw Brothers to become an R bomb star, but even then, it takes a certain amount of effort acting.

What's more, this era is the period when female stars are born in large numbers, such as the three princesses of the Great Wall, the seven golden flowers of the Shaw Brothers, and the top ten talented women of Xiangjiang, etc., are all very important.

Zou Wenhuai breathed out, put the documents in his hand on the table, and looked up at He Guanchang, "Then what do you mean?"

"I think it is necessary to talk to Mr. Shi! Not only is the liquidated damages high for signing these six people, but the salary he offered is also very high. We Golden Harvest can absolutely refuse!"

"Can you refuse?" Zou Wenhuai smiled, and reached out to pat He Guanchang on the shoulder: "Don't forget, Golden Harvest was indeed founded by us and Shi Zhijian in the past, but now—it is equivalent to his personal property!"

"Uh, this—" He Guanchang froze for a moment, then sighed, "If it wasn't for the two of us betraying him last time, maybe we can still have a strong voice as partners!"

"I know! It's a pity that there is no regret medicine in this world!" Zou Wenhuai said with a wry smile, "Besides, I have another opinion--"

"Another opinion?"

Zou Wenhuai pointed to the materials on the table, "Shi Zhijian never does anything uncertain, especially in entertainment! Don't you think he is so accurate, he can turn everything into gold! Zheng Shaoqiu, Zhao Yazhi, Zhang Aijia, and even that Huang The big teeth were stained yellow, and now they are all red!"

After a pause, Zou Wenhuai continued: "In addition, Bruce Lee who just passed away is a good example!"

He Guanchang thought about it carefully, and it was true.

It seems that Shi Zhijian has never been wrong in these years in the entertainment circle, and he has never missed any pearls.

"So what we can do is to follow his instructions and train these six people well! Of course, as the leaders of Golden Harvest, we cannot give them the best resources of Golden Harvest. After all, we still need to train people like Cheng Long and Hong Jinbao , these people are the future!"

He Guanchang smiled wryly: "It seems that these futures are also recommended by Shi Zhijian!"

Zou Wenhuai also smiled wryly: "So I don't know what he's going to do now, are he going to catch all these star singers?"

"Not only that, besides the "Oriental Daily" controlled by Shinhwa, I heard that he is also buying other newspapers and magazines, as well as radio stations, film companies, etc." He Guanchang said.

"Is one Golden Harvest not enough for him to play with?"

"Yeah, he has complained a lot about doing this!"

In fact, this is indeed the case. In order to occupy the public opinion position in Hong Kong, Shi Zhijian has been frantically expanding his entertainment territory during this period, buying newspapers, radio stations, film companies, etc., which caused a big earthquake in the circle. Many entertainment bigwigs complained Shi Zhijian is too barbaric, expanding his career like a lunatic, not giving others a way out!

In particular, Yifu Shao Daheng, who is the leader of the Hong Kong film industry, was promoted by everyone to "hold justice".

For this reason, Shao Daheng personally wrote an article: "Sima Zhao's heart is known to everyone!" Remember the crazy expansion of Shinhwa Entertainment!

This article was directly published in "Ming Pao", coupled with the blessing of Shaw TV's TVB news program, it quickly spread throughout Xiangjiang.

And many unreasonable citizens have also accused Shi Zhijian's Mythology Group of "bullying others". It can be said that Shi Zhijian's reputation has plummeted.

"That's why I'm even more curious. Why would a person who cherishes feathers like him do that? Besides, how can he restore his reputation?" He Guanchang said distressed.

"Recovering word of mouth? I'm afraid it will be difficult!" Zou Wenhuai shook his head: "In short, we will never see through his actions!"

…

Kowloon Tong, Qihe Xiaozhu.

Former residence of Bruce Lee.

This villa, covering an area of ​​865 square meters, was the place where Bruce Lee lived when he started his business and filmed in Hong Kong. Now, with Bruce Lee's untimely death, this place is no longer as lively as before.

But today, Qihe Xiaozhu has an important guest, he is the famous president of Shinhwa Group, Shi Zhijian!

Inside the villa, several of Bruce Lee's surviving servants were sorting out the dilapidated flowers and plants, and his pair of children, Guohao and Xiangning, were playing and playing on the playground.

Seeing Shi Zhijian coming, the servant rushed into the villa to report to Mrs. Linda, Bruce Lee's widow.

Soon, Shi Zhijian was invited in.

Linda is sorting out Bruce Lee's relics in the study at this time, mainly books, scripts, and Jeet Kune Do drawings drawn by Bruce Lee.

After getting the answer, Shi Zhijian opened the door and walked in. Behind the desk, Linda was busy with black-rimmed glasses and casual clothes.

Hearing footsteps, Linda raised her head from behind the desk and smiled at Shi Zhijian who entered the door.

For many ordinary people, this study room may be considered luxurious. Apart from a lot of books, there are some sports equipment. It is conceivable that Bruce Lee did not forget to practice martial arts and exercise when he was studying here.

In particular, on a wall of the study room, there are densely posted some martial arts experiences written by Bruce Lee, as well as inspirations for movie stories.

"Dear Shi, why are you here?" Linda got up and invited Shi Zhijian to sit down.

Shi Zhijian didn't sit down, but walked around the study a few times before turning to look at Linda: "Sorry, I'm late!"

When Linda heard this, her nose turned sore, her eye circles turned red, and she showed a trace of sadness, but she quickly smiled again: "It's nothing, Xiaolong has gone to heaven now, he must be doing well there!"

Shi Zhijian nodded, walked to the desk and stroked Bruce Lee's photo frame, "Linda, do you need any help? As long as I can do it, I will do it."

"Thank you, dear Shi! The help you have given is already great! Back then, Xiaolong's funeral was also funded by Shinhwa Company. It was very grand and grand! Xiaolong is already very happy to have a friend like you!"

Shi Zhijian sat on the chair opposite the desk, Linda brought him a cup of coffee, and then sat back behind the desk: "But I'm curious, dear Shi, do you have anything else to do here besides greeting us? "

Shi Zhijian picked up the coffee gracefully and said, "Yes, I do have one more important thing and I hope to get your permission, or help!"

After finishing speaking, Shi Zhijian looked around and said: "First of all, I want to apply for this place to exist as the former residence of Bruce Lee, and it will soon become a landmark building in Hong Kong! Of course, in order to make up for you, I will help you buy a villa again!"

Linda smiled: "Your suggestion is very good. In fact, I also have this idea, but there are many good memories of me and Xiaolong here, so I am a little reluctant to leave—"

"Understandable!" Shi Zhijian nodded.

"Of course, since you brought it up, I will think about it! After all, I can't live in the memories forever. I should take my children back to the United States. Maybe it will be better for their growth!"

"I can help arrange these." Shi Zhijian sipped his coffee and said in a firm tone, "In addition, I bought some land near Victoria Harbour, where I plan to erect a statue of Bruce Lee and build his memorial hall, and the name of the memorial hall has been decided , it's called - Wuying of the Dragon!"

"Memorial?" Linda was taken aback for a moment, she didn't expect Shi Zhijian to do so many things for Bruce Lee.

"That's right, I will cover all the funds, but Linda needs you to provide some information about Xiaolong's life, such as his photos, books, and the scripts and paintings you are sorting out!"

While talking, Shi Zhijian took out a document from his pocket, bent down and handed it to Linda: "This is the document approved by the superior. As long as you agree to sign on it, you can start building and building it!"

Linda's mouth moved, but she didn't make a sound. Apart from being excited, her expression was still excited! After more than ten seconds, he said: "Is all this true?"

As the wife who loves Bruce Lee, Linda certainly hopes that a memorial hall full of Bruce Lee's memories will be completed in Hong Kong, so that those dragon fans who love him and admire him will have a good place to pay their respects.

But this kind of project is huge, and she, a weak woman, can't complete it at all, not to mention the financial aspect, even the energy aspect. However, as Bruce Lee's good friend before his death, Shi Zhijian now proposes to undertake the construction of the Bruce Lee Memorial Hall. Linda was so excited that she didn't know what to say.

"Besides asking me to sign, what else do I need to do?" Linda tried hard to adjust the thinking in her mind.

"Of course, you and I need to attend the inauguration ceremony of the statue of Bruce Lee and the foundation stone laying ceremony of the memorial hall. If you want, the time will be three days later!"

Linda's eyes were wet, and she finally cried: "I promise you! No, I still want to thank you! Thank you, Aaron, for having a good brother like you!"

Shi Zhijian stood up, handed the pen to Linda, patted her on the shoulder and said, "Sure, I should do these things!"

…

Shi Zhijian wanted to help Bruce Lee build a memorial hall, and the news that a statue was erected in Victoria Harbor quickly spread throughout Hong Kong.

This made countless fans of Bruce Lee cheer for the first time, and then they were full of gratitude to Shi Zhijian, Bruce Lee's good friend!

"The establishment of the Bruce Lee Memorial Hall will be recorded in the annals of Hong Kong film history!"

"Mr. Stone is Bruce Lee's best friend!"

"It was Shi Zhijian who helped us fulfill our wish!"

"Mr. Shi, long live UU Reading www.uukanshu.com!"

For a moment, Shi Zhijian's reputation soared!

This made those entertainment bigwigs who scolded Shi Zhijian dumbfounded, especially as Shi Zhijian's old rival, Shao Yifu, the head of Shaw Films, was even more dumbfounded: "This is also okay? Shi Zhijian directly restored word of mouth just by helping Bruce Lee to establish a memorial hall." ?!"

"Is there any reason? He, Shi Zhijian, annexed newspapers and magazines, and the matter of the film company, so no one cares about it?"

"He is so ambitious! We should flog him together and reprimand him!"

pity-

The reprimands of these entertainment bigwigs became smaller and smaller in the cheers celebrating the upcoming construction of the Bruce Lee Memorial Hall, until they were drowned out, and they could no longer stir up any waves in Hong Kong!
