A sickly bamboo horse dressed as a villain

This kiss, as light as a feather, passed by without any ambiguity, leaving only a faint warmth.Chen Jianan's ears turned red because of this, not because he was thinking wildly, but because he had never been treated so tenderly since he was a child, so he was a little at a loss what to do.

After a long silence, he seemed to remember something, and asked in a low voice, "Little Qiao, do you have any good brothers in that world?"

Qiao Wen was slightly taken aback, only to realize that he hadn't thought of Lin Nan for a long time, time is indeed a powerful thing, some people and things will always be slowly forgotten by time.

But he didn't forget Lin Nan, but he didn't think of it often.

He nodded and said, "Well, I also have a good brother who grew up with me. But before coming here, he was no longer alive."

Chen Jianan said: "Maybe he went to another world just like you."

Because of Qiao Wen's experience, it seems that all farewells can leave people with a good expectation.

Qiao Wen also hoped so.

The two stayed alone on the boat for a long time, and they didn't set off for the return journey until their stomachs gurgled.

In this era, the threshold for making movies is very low, and the review is very simple.In the post-production stage, Qiao Wen started to run to theaters, because the pre-heating was sufficient, Li Xingchen and Su Zhizhi were famous enough, and the owners of major theaters were willing to open the door for their film, just because Wennan Films was a new film. In the company, Sun Dayu is also a little-known new director, and there are not many films scheduled at the beginning.

He was not in a hurry. After the movie was officially released, he asked his own people to watch it. Based on the number of Hong Kong movies he read in his previous life, he knew that the style and rhythm of the movie were basically stable.Then a trial screening was held in a small theater, and dozens of media, as well as several film critics and columnists were invited.

The preview also invited Li Xingchen and Su Zhizhi to the scene in person, giving the media and writers enough face.After watching the movie, each reporter and author left with a lot of spiritual and material satisfaction with the generous gifts prepared by Wennan Films.

The film was released two days later, and major newspapers and magazines had already praised the film in advance. Many young people who love movies couldn't wait to rush into the theater to enjoy this long-awaited masterpiece.

More or less people have a herd mentality, and the number of fans of the original "Bravely Entering the World" is also quite large.What's more, although this movie can't be said to be perfect, the quality is definitely top-notch, especially the martial arts designed by Chen Jianan, which is real and entertaining.The media has begun to define Chenjiaban with the "New Taipei style".

In just a few days, movie tickets have become hard to come by, and the owners of major theaters no longer bother to care about Tengxing Films, and hurriedly increase the number of films.

For a while, whether it was newspapers, magazines, or teahouses and cafes, this hot new movie was the most talked about and written about.From Li Xingchen and Su Zhizhi to Chen Jianan and his Chen Jiaban, and even Qiao Wen, the behind-the-scenes boss, are all people's gossip.

For such a grand occasion, Qiao Wen was still calm, but Chen Jianan was much more excited. After all, this was his first film in theaters as a martial artist.

People who didn't even read the newspapers have recently read the film reviews in the newspapers every day. When they see that the martial arts is well done, they are elated, and when they are criticized that the martial arts are inferior, they are dejected.Fortunately, out of the ten comments, nine were praises, so happiness far outweighed disappointment. In addition, Qiao Wen was in his ears all day, praising him for doing a good job. He didn't say that he was full of confidence, but he was doing this to himself. Full of confidence.

There are dozens of movies released at the same time as "Bravely Entering the World", the most popular of which is "Heaven and Earth Heroes" directed by Peng Guang with a beard. He has made quite a few movies, and he is considered a great director. Although his reputation is mediocre, he has made several box office champions and has a great reputation.

The two films are considered to be of the same type, and "Heaven and Earth Heroes" was released two days earlier. Because Tengxing has a strong momentum and Lu Handong is used to domineering in the industry, the theater boss dare not lose face. Originally, half of the film schedule was given to "Heaven and Earth Heroes".

But in just a few days, the word-of-mouth of "Bravely Entering the World" has fermented, and it is hard to get a ticket.

No one has trouble with money. In the beginning, it was the bosses of a few theaters who took the risk of offending Lu Handong and secretly moved part of the filming of "Heaven and Earth Heroes" to "Bravely Entering the World". Seeing this, other bosses naturally couldn't let it go. If you don't make money when you see the opportunity to make money, follow suit immediately.

So in just ten or so days, the schedules of "Heroes of Heaven and Earth" and "Bravely Entering the World" have been completely dropped.

In less than a month, "Bravely Entering the World" became the undisputed box office champion, and more than half of the second-ranked "Heaven and Earth Heroes".

"Damn! Did you make a mistake, why is the box office so low?"

When "Bravely Entering the World" was in full swing in theaters, the office of the general manager of Tengxing Films was full of clouds.

Lu Handong glanced at the box office statistics table handed over by his subordinates, and fell angrily on the mahogany table.

The subordinate was a young man less than 30 years old, wearing a suit and leather shoes, and wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. He looked like a highly educated elite, and even his eyes were shining.

This person is Lu Handong's confidant, whose surname is Wu and whose name is Zhunyun.

Wu Zhunyun replied unhurriedly: "Brother Dong, everyone in Hong Kong is now discussing "Bravely Entering the World". It's true that not many people watch our film."

Lu Handong said unhappily: "It doesn't matter how many he is, as long as he can make the box office, how did he do it before? Forgot?"

Wu Zhunyun said: "Brother Dong, it's different this time. The theaters want to make money from the popularity of "Bravely Entering the World", and there are too few films for "Heaven and Earth Heroes", so there is no way to directly fake it."

Lu Handong sneered: "These bastards, they collected my money so neatly, but the bridges across the river were demolished very quickly." As he spoke, he raised his chin and said sadly, "Go back and find someone and a few big theaters. The boss drinks tea and asks them to shoot the lineup, and the box office will do it for me."

Wu Zhunyun said: "I understand."

Lu Handong said angrily again, "Ah Guang is also useless, what big star he wants to hire him, and the film he makes is not as good as the first film of his new company."

Just as he finished speaking, the phone on the table rang.He frowned and motioned to Wu Zhunyun: "Ah Yun, you take it."

Wu Zhunyun nodded, took a step forward, picked up the phone, and said politely, "Hello!"

Hearing the answer from the other side, he silently mouthed to Lu Handong: "It's from the fifth master."

A gloomy and irritable look flashed across Lu Handong's face, and he mouthed back: "You handle it."

Wu Zhunyun nodded, said a few polite words to the phone, hung up the phone, and said, "Brother Dong, Lord Wu is asking about the money this time."

Lu Handong snorted, and became irritable: "Hurry up, they can handle it themselves if they have the ability. Tens of millions of them are washed clean, thinking it is as simple as washing clothes? They dare not spend black money, but I dare to spend it."

Wu Zhunyun said: "Brother Dong, they also said that you should be careful recently and don't touch the money that has not been laundered. The ICAC has just been established, and I am afraid it will be investigated by Inspector Hong. Very active, especially that Inspector Zhou, who said he was afraid that we would be found.”

Lu Handong said disapprovingly: "I, Lu Handong, have been around for more than ten years in good health. If the boat capsizes, it would have capsized." He paused, and then said, "I asked you to check the fifth master, do you have any clues? We have a relationship with him. A grasshopper on a rope, but he has been in the dark for many years and I am in the open, it is too unreasonable. We must find out his identity, and even if I really capsize one day, I have to bite him and share the burden."

Wu Zhunyun frowned and said: "I don't have a clue yet, but Hong Kong City is so big, as long as we do a few more things for them, we will always follow the clues to find out the details of the other party."

Lu Handong nodded, leaned hard on the executive chair, picked up a cigar, put it in his mouth and lit it, curled up the corners of his mouth, showing a cold smile: "I, Lu Handong, am not at the mercy of others, the old fox wants to keep me in check." , it's not that easy."

Wu Zhunyun also smiled: "Brother Dong is right." As if thinking of something, he said, "By the way, Li Xingchen's contract with Baozhutai expires next month. We talked to him earlier. Never agreed."

Lu Handong frowned: "He signed a contract with Liangzi Nan?"

Wu Zhunyun shook his head: "It is said that we don't know yet, his contract is held in the hands of his cousin, he probably wants to raise the price. Now that his first movie is a big hit, his net worth will definitely increase. Wennan should find a way to sell people stay."

Lu Handong raised his brows thoughtfully: "His cousin? The Li Xinghai who eats, drinks, prostitutes and gambles every day and swaggers around in the name of his cousin?"

Wu Zhunyun nodded: "That's right."

Lu Handong sneered: "At first, I didn't think much about signing Li Xingchen. It's hard for anyone to tell if a TV star turns into a movie. But since his first movie was a big hit, then I have to have this guy. Speaking of which, I I also have to thank Liangzi Nan and the others for helping me cultivate talents! What should I do? You should know, right?"

Wu Zhunyun nodded: "Don't worry, Brother Dong, I will take care of it."

Lu Handong exhaled a puff of smoke, and said with a smile: "Ah Yun, I am the most at ease when you do things. You don't have to worry, as long as I have a mouthful of rice, I will never let you just eat porridge. In time, the huge Hong Kong city will be replaced by We brothers have the final say."

Wu Zhunyun smiled and said, "Thank you Dong Ge."

While Lu Handong started to think about intrigues and tricks, the two bosses of Wennan Films have been immersed in the joy of box office sales.In less than a month, the box office of "Brave in the World" has reached 400 million. Usually a movie is released for about a month, but a movie with a good box office can be postponed to two months at most. The total box office of "Brave in the World" broke 600. Wan, obviously not a problem at all.

This box office is really nothing to Qiao Wen, who has experienced the explosion of the mainland film industry.But in the 70s, a small Hong Kong city was able to reach this amount. If nothing unexpected happened, there was almost no suspense that it would be the box office champion of the year.In his memory, the first Hong Kong film in the real world to break the box office of tens of millions was Jackie Chan's "Junior and Brother" in 1980.

The box office of more than 600 million yuan, excluding the cost, earned less than half of the money. For him who has made several windfalls in the past two years, it is actually not a big number, but for their company's film business, it is a huge number. Perfect start.And this is the result of several months of hard work by everyone, which is far more fulfilling than getting rich overnight by speculating in stocks and land.

Of course, Qiao Wen had to admit that the matter of land speculation was also very good.

While the box office continued to boom, the Haitian Yise project was completed.Because it was Ouyang Yuan's handwriting, this row of [-] luxurious villas has also become a landmark building on the seaside of Hong Kong City.

Qiao Wen and Chen Jianan kept a set.It is a bit far from the commercial area, there are no trams and buses, and you have to rely on private cars and taxis to go out. For those who can afford a villa, this is not a problem at all, but it is a big problem for the two elders, plus good neighbors The business of the tea restaurant is good, and the elders of the family will never give up their jobs and live in a remote villa to bask in the sun and enjoy themselves.

Therefore, this house can only be Qiao Wen and Chen Jianan's vacation home.

In order to celebrate the completion of the new home, the two specially invited a group of friends and brothers to hold a house warming party.

While waiting for his friends to come to the door, although Chen Jianan had seen it several times, standing in this luxurious mansion, he still couldn't help but want to roll on the spot with joy.

"Little Qiao, is this really our house?" He lay on the ground in a large shape, looking at the ceiling and sighing sincerely.

The polished marble floor, the bright crystal lamp, the spiral staircase, and the large terrace facing the sea are like a dream.Mingming had only moved out of the city for more than a year, and the gloomy tenement building seemed to have happened in a previous life.

Qiao Wen shook his head amusedly, went up and kicked him: "Brother Feng Zihui and the others should be coming soon, you should get up and greet the guests properly."

Chen Jianan stood up with a beautiful carp: "Got it." He said with a smile, "How much do you think Brother Feng envies us? He just thinks about his brothers in everything, otherwise he will leave the city and set up his own family, and he will also follow us." We're having a good time."

Qiao Wen smiled: "Brother Feng has been in the Hexing Club since he was [-] or [-] years old, and he has feelings for the club. If he lets go, what will happen to so many brothers under him?"

Chen Jianan nodded: "Brother Feng is just too loyal. He thinks about everyone but not himself. I am willing to bow down to this kind of spirit."

Qiao Wen sighed: "No matter what, Brother Feng is in the Walled City, and the common people's lives should be better."

"That's true. Although we came out by ourselves, we also hope that our former neighbors can live a good life."

While the two were talking, the iron doorbell rang outside.Chen Jianan pulled Qiao Wen and ran out to open the door.

There were a dozen or so people at the gate, they were all the brothers from the Chen family, Jiang Yufeng, and Lin Zihui.

"Brother Nan Gewen, good luck in moving to a new house, lucky star photo in the golden nest!" The brothers shouted.

Chen Jianan waved his hands and smiled, "Come in."

Jiang Yufeng handed a painting in his hand to the two, and said with a smile: "Awen Anan, this is a gift from Brother Feng for your new house. I'm a rough person who doesn't know how to paint. It was picked by Axue. You can look at it later." like or not?"

Qiao Wen took the painting and said with a smile: "Chosen by college students, of course it's not bad."

Lin Zihui also approached with a smile, and handed a huge gift box to Chen Jianan: "Awen Anan, this is a pair of vases I specially picked out for you two. Congratulations on your housewarming, and congratulations on building a love nest together! "

Qiao Wen: "????"

Chen Jianan was actually quite happy when he heard this, but the four-eyed boy was clearly teasing him and Xiao Qiao, so he raised his brows angrily, raised his iron fist with a sand bowl, and pretended to threaten: "four-eyed boy, are you It’s not that I owe a beating again!”
