Dragon City Ice Room.

The rolling shutter door is pulled down.

Passers-by passed by the store and saw it closing, reluctantly leaving.

On the white round table in the middle of the tea restaurant, there are six dishes: steamed rat scallops, stir-fried cabbage sum, stir-fried crabs in typhoon shelter, drunken peanuts, a plate of barbecued pork and a pot of pig's feet soup. The dishes are very homely.

The light tubes on the roof flickered on and off, flashing from time to time, casting an uncertain light.

Wu 200 million sat alone at the round table, picked up a piece of cabbage with chopsticks, stuffed a piece of barbecued pork, chewed it with gusto, and ate it with gusto. When traveling in Europe, this was the food he was most uncomfortable with.

"Have you two eaten?"

He immersed himself in picking up the rice, raised his chopsticks towards the waiter without raising his head, and said vaguely: "A Liang - add two pairs of bowls and chopsticks, and ask the kitchen to add two more dishes."

"Thank you~ Sir Wu."

Liu Zhenwei pushed Wang Qianqian's waist, took the initiative to take the bowls and chopsticks from the waiter, pulled up a chair and sat down, and Wang Jiawei also sat down next to him——

"Didn't the old store just be renovated not long ago? The light tube is broken? We will fix it tomorrow..."

Wu Xiaozu ignored the two of them, especially the one who was cheating on him, and said to the cashier.

A Liang, the clerk at the cashier, was flipping through a magazine and reading with gusto.

"..."

"Ah? Brother Zu——" The waiter next to him poked him, and A Liang quickly stood up and saw Wu Xiaozu turning around and looking at him.

He nodded his head with the chopsticks and said, "Weigh it!"

"No~ Brother Zu, this is a special request from the company, and it's a scene from the movie. Many diners deliberately take pictures of our lamps and ceiling fans while eating. Brother Yao won't let them be replaced..." A Liang said quickly.

Wu Xiaozu was chewing peanuts, holding a transparent plastic cup and taking a sip of beer. His tongue curled up his gums, and his eyes were fixed on his old friend A Liang.

"Brother Zu, don't worry. I'll go to the nearby hardware store tomorrow morning to buy a replacement lamp." A Liang promised.

Wu Xiaozu ignored the other party and let out a wine burp. He looked at Wang Jiawei, who looked like a little daughter-in-law in front of him, and saw that the other party was holding dishes at random, with a look of disgust on his face.

"Sir Wu, I've been thinking about it and let's see if we can cut one play into two films..." Liu Zhenwei put down his chopsticks and said proactively, and at the same time nudged Wang Jiawei with his elbow.

"This is a method, but it cannot deceive experts. Treating the symptoms but not the root cause." Wu Xiaozu did not object to this opinion. This was originally one of the ways to solve the problem. These days, there are many such things.

But it happens that the audience may not be able to deceive the insiders.

Even if you really don't know how to do it, with so many people on the crew, who can guarantee that nothing will leak out?

brake--

There was a rapid sound of brakes outside the door, followed by several cars that seemed to have stalled and parked. A moment later, there was a banging on the door.

The guy ran over and opened the door.

Four investors, Xiang Shisan, Deng Guangrong, Cai Zhiqiang and Tomson's Xu Feng, unexpectedly came together.

"Azu, you, a rich man, invited me to dinner at a tea restaurant. You are really not sincere~ The box office of "Dragon Inn" has almost exceeded 30 million..." Cai Zhiqiang, who was wearing a cardigan and a gray suit, spoke first, followed by Xu next to him.

Feng and Xiang Shisan both smiled and greeted Wu Xiaozu.

Deng Guangrong, with his shiny slicked back hair and a large suit, glanced at Wu Xiaozu and chose to ignore it.

"There's nothing I can do, I can't get used to foreign food -" Wu Xiaozu didn't pay attention, and smiled and greeted everyone one by one. When he looked at Deng Guangrong, he also smiled and said hello.

"There are many Chinese restaurants in Chinatown in the Netherlands~" Cai Zhiqiang said with a smile.

"Just say this, I can't accept the improved Chinese food." Wu Xiaozu smiled slightly, motioned for a few people to do it, and said to Xu Feng with a smile: "Mrs. Xu, I'm sorry for asking you to come here so late."

"It doesn't matter, I also know that this tea restaurant is very famous in Hong Kong Island. I also wanted to come here and have a look before, and this time I have the opportunity..." Xu Feng, who was wearing round glasses, smiled softly. He said, "I also watched the new "Dragon Inn" and it was really exciting."

"You can't take it seriously. The movie "Dragon Gate Inn" that you acted in back then is a classic. I'm just Shiquan Shu Yahui." Wu Xiaozu was humble.

The other party once played the role of Yu Qian Yu Shaobao's daughter in "Dragon Inn" and also acted in "The Heroine". She is regarded as a senior martial arts actress in the Chinese film industry.

In 1984, with the support of her husband Tang Junnian, he founded Tomson Films in Wanwan, focusing on art films. The later "Red Dust" and "Farewell My Concubine" are all works of Tomson.

After his husband entered the real estate industry from the textile industry, he was out of control. He once set a record of NT$30 billion in sales in two weeks in Wanwan. In 1988, he moved to Hong Kong Island and made several big projects in succession. He was called the "Wanwan Gang" by the business circles of Hong Kong Island. '.The film industry is also one of its more important investments.

"They are both good works, so you two should not be modest."

Xiang Shisan said with a smile, his eyes behind the gold-rimmed glasses glanced at Wang Jiawei who stood up, nodded with a smile, and turned to look at Wu Xiaozu, "You just came back from Europe, right? Let's go play golf together another day."

"No problem."

Wu Xiaozu smiled and waved to the waiter, took away the leftovers and served tea.

Carrying a teapot and pouring tea for several people, "This time Jiawei was filming "Days of Being Wild", I only realized that the standards were seriously exceeded. Speaking of which, I shouldn't have intervened in this matter.

But I can't sit idly by when Ah Wei asks me. I will also be a peacemaker today and see if I can solve this matter.

So I deliberately chose this tea restaurant, which is ‘home’, and I hope everyone can open the skylight and talk openly about what we have to say – what do you think?”

"I have no objection. But - the investment in two movies turns into one movie, how do you divide it?" Cai Zhiqiang spread his hands, "55 million Hong Kong dollars..."

"Striving for perfection is the instinctive drive of filmmakers, and Wei also has his own persistence in his work. It is understandable that the budget estimate was insufficient for the first time he shot independently. Of course, he cannot shirk this. So I thought, is there something wrong? Remedies can satisfy everyone."

Wu Xiaozu distributed the tea to several people, raised his hand and smiled, "Please give me tea——"

Under the flickering lights, everyone took the tea cup, and their states were different. Some drank it all in one gulp, while others sipped it lightly, each with their own attitude.

"The filming of the film has been completed and the post-production is in progress. I think you have all seen the first cut of the film..."

"It's very good, the picture quality is very high, the atmosphere is very good, it's an excellent drama." Xu Feng said bluntly, "It's very stylish!"

Wu Xiaozu glanced at Mrs. Xu. She had been in love with literary and artistic films for a long time, and it was not too much to like this kind of style.

"The quality is good." Xiang Shisan said slightly hesitantly. He admitted that the movie was very good, but... he always felt that it was unclear and unclear.

The other two people also vaguely approved.

"Boss Wu, do you want us to share the profits of a movie equally?" Deng Guangrong said bluntly.

"Of course it's not one size fits all~"

Wu Xiaozu smiled slightly, not minding Deng Guangrong's eccentricity, and proactively said: "In terms of movie revenue, in addition to Hong Kong Island, there are also box offices in Bay Area and Southeast Asia. These are originally distributed by us in the European and American markets. We can reduce the distribution commission."

, Wanwan, the Southeast Asian market allows you to take a large share. Europe and the United States also want to get a share of distribution...

Of course, this is a solution.

The other one is—"

Wu Xiaozu raised his voice and said without changing his expression: "I will personally work with Ah Wei and Director Liu on a new play. You all have priority for investment.

And don’t worry, everyone is an insider, so you don’t have to worry about me playing tricks! Of course, those who enjoy this drama will get a corresponding reduction in their profit share in "Days of Being Wild"... Two to one makes five, what do you think?

If you don’t agree...that’s okay~ I’ll treat you all to tea today, just pretend I didn’t say anything!”

"Can you guarantee that the interests are equal?" Deng Guangrong asked.

"Ha~ Boss Deng, these are just layman's words! Movies are a business, and who can guarantee that all businesses will make money? Take my movie "Dragon Gate Inn", which looks good at the box office, but you also know that the losses are huge.

In the market, it is really difficult to make money at the box office...

Everyone invests in movies based on their own abilities. You can't invest in a movie and then blame the director when you lose money, right? Isn't it appropriate to beat the cook after dinner??"

Wu Xiaozu spread his hands and retreated directly, shirk responsibility and pick himself clean.

During this trip to Europe, as its distribution and cooperation channels became wider and wider, various film festivals began to clear their doors, and Wu Xiaozu was able to see the benefits of Wang Qianqian.

This is why he took action.

As for helping to make another film - it's not about financing whose investment it is, right?

"In this way, I have been cooperating with Azu for the longest time here. I will reduce the investment share ratio of "Days of Being Wild"." Xiang Shisan thundered and expressed his position directly.

This opening made Wu Xiaozu couldn't help but look at Xiang Sheng.

A smile on his lips.

As expected of Hong Kong's gold medal producer and producer, I'm afraid Xiang Shisanhe now feels that "Days of Wild" is not sure.

"How many are there?" Wu Xiaozu took advantage of the victory and pursued him.

This matter can be said to be difficult or simple.

Things have already happened, Wang Jiawei has thrown 55 million Hong Kong dollars into it, and the movie cannot be changed. At this time, Wu Xiaozu comes up with a solution, which is actually a step up.

Could it be that Wang Jiawei was really hacked to death?

At least Deng Guangrong and Cai Zhiming are reluctant to part with him ~ they think Wang Jiawei is very talented!

If you don't kill him, there's actually nothing you can do!

"Jiawei and I have known each other for a long time." Deng Guangrong smiled and looked at Wang Jiawei, "I have no problem here."

Cai Zhiqiang glanced at several people and nodded.

"I am very optimistic about this drama." Xu Feng also said.

See this.

Wu Xiaozu smiled.
