In the Regal Hotel, dressed in fragrant clothes and with beautiful faces, the annual Hong Kong Film Association Awards Ceremony was held grandly.
Mr. Nan Yifei, who rarely appears in public, stepped onto the podium as an award guest, and thunderous applause erupted from below.
Those who really control the Hong Kong film market are not the gorgeously dressed stars, but the showbiz giants behind the scenes.
When film and television executives such as Li Shaohuang, Xiang Haitian and Shao Nanxiang entered the scene, all the noisy celebrities also held their breath.
Celebrities are always glossy commodities created by the people behind the scenes. The boss behind the scenes can determine the stardom and even the fate of an ordinary artist. It is not difficult to understand why unwritten rules prevail in the entertainment industry. Many female stars are not afraid of unwritten rules, but are afraid of not having opportunities.
Hidden rules.
"Fang Ming, Leng Yanfang!" When Leng Yanfang, wearing a red peony, dragon and phoenix cheongsam, appeared on the stage holding Fang Ming's arm, all the spotlights flashed rapidly, and the atmosphere at the scene suddenly heated up.
In the past year, Fang Ming's performance has been obvious to all. In just over a year, this 22-year-old young man turned an unknown company into a listed film and television company that occupies a leading position in Hong Kong films.
The release of three movies that led the box office is impressive.
With his handsome appearance, outstanding talent and prominent wealth background, Fang Ming has become the target of pursuit in the entertainment industry. The most fascinating thing among them is his confusing relationship with Leng Yanfang.
Looking at the luxurious Leng Yanfang clinging to Fang Ming's side, all the female celebrities felt sour in their hearts. At the reception, many female celebrities approached Fang Ming in various ways, imagining that something could happen.
"Haitian!" Li Shaohuang greeted Haitian attentively while holding a wine glass.
Mainland China's investment was withdrawn, and Li Shaohuang focused on his old business. He hoped to develop the TV drama market with Haitian Film and Television Company.
Li Shaohuang has considered that he has no good plans for the big screen yet. Fortunately, his radio stations are doing well in TV dramas, so Li Shaohuang decided to devote himself to the TV drama market.
Xiang Haitian was sipping red wine and chatting happily with Li Shaohuang. His eyes fell on the dance floor from time to time, watching a pair of young people.
That was Xiang Lan, the daughter of Li Yishan and Xiang Haitian. They danced gracefully like butterflies. In the eyes of outsiders, they were a couple.
"Brother Haitian, Lan Lan is not a little girl this year, right?"
Xiang Haitian smiled and glanced at Li Shaohuang. He knew the meaning of the other person's words: "Brother Shaohuang, our Xiaolan has a very high-spirited spirit. It's hard for ordinary people to get into her eyes."
"Haha!" Li Shaohuang glanced at his son in the field. He really hoped that Li Yishan could seize this opportunity. If he could marry Xiang Haitian, the cooperation between the two families would be more seamless.
Before the dance was over, Xiang Lan suddenly pushed Li Yishan away.
"What's the matter, Xiang Lan?"
"Master Li, I'm sorry." Xiang Lan hurriedly walked forward. She came to Fang Ming and said with a sweet smile: "Mr. Fang, can I treat you to a dance?"
Everyone knew that the eldest daughter of the Xiang family had a bad temper. The female star nearby made excuses to avoid it. Xiang Lan pulled Fang Ming up without any explanation and came to the center of the dance floor.
Fang Ming also saw what happened just now. Now he must find a way to break up the cooperation between the two families, and Xiang Lan is a good breakthrough.
Fang Ming gently hugged Xiang Lan's waist and danced gracefully on the dance floor. Fang Ming danced very well and controlled the rhythm well. Xiang Lan still had more to say after dancing.
"Miss Xiang, I heard that you are cooperating with Donghuang Film and Television?"
"I have this intention." Xiang Lan glanced at Fang Ming and said in surprise: "Is it possible that Mr. Fang is also interested in the small screen?"
"Haha, I'm just asking casually." Fang Ming changed the topic and mentioned Li Yishan: "I see that the young master of the Li family and Miss Xiang are very close."
Xiang Lan felt nervous for no reason, and she quickly defended: "For whatever reason, our two families cooperate more because of the business relationship. Speaking of other things, what I admire most is a talented man like Mr. Fang."
Fang Ming was noncommittal. What he was most worried about was the cooperation between the two companies, which would disrupt his plan. This is the case in the business world, with vertical and horizontal alliances happening every day. Fang Ming's seemingly casual question made Li Yishan's dream come true.
.
After the party, Fang Ming returned to Maosheng Film and Television Company.
We have achieved extraordinary results in the past year. The most important thing now is to strike while the iron is hot, let the box office speak for itself, and consolidate the performance of the film and television company. Only good performance can win the support of theater managers.
When running a business, you must always keep a clear mind. The market is constantly changing, and only those with a clear mind can remain invincible.
Under Fang Ming's attack, the Li family and his son were defeated miserably.
Xiang Haitian rejected Li Shaohuang's marriage proposal. Compared to his father's tact, Xiang Lan's words were straightforward: "The eldest young master of the Li family is a well-known slut. Getting married? Please find someone else to play with."
It was spicy and merciless, even his father Xiang Haitian was dumbfounded.
Xiang Lan also flatly rejected the Li family's father-son TV drama cooperation agreement.
Xiang Haitian sent the Li family father and son away with a smile. He couldn't help but blame his daughter. Xiang Lan said plausibly: "Father, can you really not see the current situation? Maosheng Film and Television Company has suddenly emerged, while Donghuang Film and Television has been in decline. We
Cooperating with the Li family means standing on the opposite side of Fang Ming."
Xiang Haitian's face darkened, not because he didn't help his old friend, but because the other party's potential strength was too amazing.
This young man in his early twenties is like a newborn tiger, full of strength. In time, he will surely become a new capital tycoon.
More importantly, it is said that this young man also has a mysterious underworld background, and he was responsible for the collapse of the Red Star Society.
Xiang Haitian looked at his daughter and said meaningfully: "Daughter, you are right. It is not easy for our Xiang family to have such a family business. We must choose our partners carefully to avoid getting involved in unnecessary disputes.
Go in."
It was dark at night, but the lights in Li Shaohuang's office were still on.
Standing in front of his desk, looking at the majestic picture of thousands of miles of mountains and rivers in front of him, Li Shaohuang's heart was racing.
Thirty years ago, he was a poor boy from a farm in Dongguan, and he came to Hong Kong with a dream to work hard. From a small clerk to the current CEO of a film and television company, Li Shaohuang has condensed the entrepreneurial characteristics of most Cantonese people.
Now, Li Shaohuang felt the crisis. He felt that Maosheng Film and Television was a growing financial monster that would sooner or later swallow up everything he had.
"Dad, I'm going to find someone to kill that kid!" Li Yishan's words were simple and direct.
The attitude of the Xiang family's father and daughter has already explained everything. This kid is causing trouble everywhere, and Li Yishan must get rid of him quickly.
Li Shaohuang remained silent. He had always been unwilling to win in this way. People in the business world advocated using wisdom to defeat opponents, and Li Shaohuang disdained the underworld methods.
Faced with his son's proposal, Li Shaohuang did not refute. The situation in front of him forced him to make a decision.
"Yishan, please wait for me to think about it carefully."
Li Yishan pushed the door open and left. The night wind blew on his face, and the cold feeling made him go crazy even more.
The disdainful looks in the Xiang family's father's and daughter's eyes made Li Yishan completely crazy. He only had two words in his heart: revenge!
No one can insult him like this. Hatred must be resolved with blood. Li Yishan decided not to wait for his father to make a decision, but to win back his dignity in his own way.
At the headquarters of the Golden Knife Gang, Xiong Kaishan was sitting on a chair with a golden sword.
Opposite him, Li Yishan smiled sinisterly and brightly. Xiong Kaishan blew a tea ceremony: "Master Li, we gangsters will not seek revenge on others for no reason."
As he said Wu Xin, Lei Hentian, who was sitting aside, felt his heart surge.
That night, more than a dozen brothers died in the opponent's capture, and Lei Hentian was very upset. It wasn't that he didn't want revenge, but that without this opportunity, the boss would not use the entire gang's strength to help him alone.
The appearance of Li Yishan made Lei Hentian's eyes brighten, and he expressed his opinion at the right time: "Boss, it has always been your dream to enter the film and television industry. I think we can do it."
It doesn't matter whether you have a grudge with Fang Ming or not, nor does the morality of the world. The most important thing in the underworld, just like in the shopping mall, is still two words: profit!
Li Yishan laughed loudly and said: "Brother Xiong, if you agree to my cooperation, I can transfer 15% of the shares of Donghuang Film and Television for free."
"Seriously?" Xiong Kaishan's eyes lit up.
"No lies!" Li Yishan said firmly.
"Very good, let's discuss the specific cooperation plan. This Fang Ming is not an ordinary person!"
The night was dark and deep, and Tao Ziqian's difficult negotiation with her client finally came to an end, and she walked out of the company's door.
At the entrance of the alley, two gangsters quietly followed Tao Ziqian.
Tao Ziqian frowned, and she quickened her pace, preparing to get rid of the other party's tracking.
Around the corner, a pair of big hands grabbed him without any warning, and a burly man directly covered Tao Ziqian's mouth and nose. Tao Ziqian screamed desperately, but couldn't make any sound.
"Bang!" The strong man slapped Tao Ziqian's back, causing Tao Ziqian to faint. Several gangsters put her into a sack and carried her into the car.
In the darkness, a dark green figure flashed out, that was Zhu Lan wearing camouflage uniform.
"No. 3 and No. 5, drive up and follow me. The rest of the group will follow me!"
Zhu Lan was very good at guarding, and she discovered the Golden Knife Gang almost at the same time that they appeared. In order to find out the origin of the enemy, Zhu Lan did not show up, so she followed them by following the clues, hoping to find the mastermind behind the scenes.
The car stopped in an apartment in the suburbs. Zhulan used the communication device to lock the location of the villa and quickly sent the information back to Fang Ming.
"Tao Ziqian was kidnapped?" Fang Ming did not panic, he informed Black Panther.
"Black Panther, what do you think of this matter?"
"Young Master, our current security measures are very strict. Since the other party dares to take action, it means they must have something to rely on. We must deal with it with all our strength."
"You're right. Since the Golden Knife Gang no longer wants to be around, let's wipe them off the map of Hong Kong!"
In the apartment, Li Yishan faced Tao Ziqian and forced him over with a sinister smile.
Tao Ziqian's eyes shone with contempt, which made Li Yishan tremble all over. He couldn't help but stop: "You are Fang Ming's woman. If Fang Ming knows that I have defiled her woman, he will definitely go crazy."
Facing the crazy Li Yishan, Tao Ziqian knew that he must first calm down and save himself.
Fang Ming will definitely come to save him. The most important thing now is to dispel Li Yishan's evil thoughts.
In college, Tao Ziqian studied psychology, and Li Yishan had a desire for revenge.
"Really?" Tao Ziqian said coldly: "Even if you tainted me, I was just bitten by a mad dog, and I won't take it seriously. But you, you are a useless and weak man!"
"Am I useless? Am I weak?" Li Yishan's face turned red. He was like an aggressive rooster that had been poked in a painful spot and decided to fight back in his own way.
Li Yishan unconsciously took two steps forward. Tao Ziqian suddenly shouted loudly: "Of course you are useless! You are a famous playboy in Hong Kong. Besides drinking and playing with women, what else do you have? You are better than your father
Not even close!"
The high-pitched voice was like a bell blasting into Li Yishan's heart, and his head suddenly exploded.
It was rare for someone to use such harsh language to ridicule. Li Yishan had been surrounded by false praises since he was a child, and he couldn't see his own position clearly. Tao Ziqian's words were like red-hot iron needles piercing his heart, which made Li Yishan extremely uncomfortable.
"Isn't it?" Tao Ziqian was like a superior queen, and her disdain made Li Yishan even more uncomfortable.
No matter, no matter whether you are a waste or a playboy, the woman who laughed at me must pay the price!
Li Yishan roared and rushed towards Tao Ziqian.
It failed, and Tao Ziqian sighed in his heart. Is this his fate?
"Whoosh!" The cold light shone, and a dagger shot in from the window without any warning, directly penetrating Li Yishan's crotch.
"Bang!" The window lattice shattered, and Zhu Lan flew in like a magic weapon descending from the sky, hanging on a rope with one hand.
After kicking Li Yishan to the ground, Zhu Lan stepped on Li Yishan's wound, causing him to faint from the pain.
This part is the most vulnerable part of a man. Zhu Lan completely crushed Li Yishan's descendants. Even if he wakes up, he will still be a waste, and he will live with inferiority forever from now on.
"Sister Zhu Lan, thank you!" Tao Ziqian was shocked.
"Don't be afraid, come with me!" Zhu Lan hugged Tao Ziqian and hung down along the rope. Tao Ziqian felt the wind in his ears and quickly fell to the ground.
"Bang bang!" There were dense gunshots in the dark night, which made Tao Ziqian's heart feel uncomfortable. Zhu Lan took her to a car and ordered Qingpi to send Tao Ziqian back.
Immediately afterwards, Zhulan pulled the bolt of the gun and disappeared into the darkness.
The Golden Knife Gang had a good idea. They used Tao Ziqian as bait and placed a large number of gunmen around the villa to lure the opponent to the bait.
However, Xiong Kaishan and Lei Hentian ignored one thing, and that was the strength of their opponents.
For the weak, this method can work wonders, but for Zhulan and her Suzaku team, this method is useless.
Zhu Lan and his team members held sniper rifles in their hands, and they approached each other from different directions as a group. With almost every gunshot, a blood flower could be seen blooming on each other's heads.
People from the Golden Knife Gang kept falling, and Xiong Kaishan couldn't sit still.
The gunmen under his command have all undergone rigorous training, but they are vulnerable to the opponent. What kind of opponent is this?
"Leizi, are you sure?"
"Boss, the current situation can only be fought to the bitter end. After all, their numbers are limited. What's more, we still have a secret weapon."
Xiong Kaishan knew that the secret weapon Lei Hentian mentioned was the masters invited from the Yamada Group in Japan. What these people are best at is assassination.
Fang Ming, just be proud first, I will definitely make you regret it!
With this thought in mind, Xiong Kaishan got into the basement of the house and quietly waited for the result---the Suzaku team, led by Zhu Lan, killed the gunmen on the periphery and entered the central area.
In front of the villa, there is a pool with a cold atmosphere. As a master, with a sense as sharp as a beast, Zhulan did not move forward rashly, and carefully observed the surrounding terrain with a group of sisters.
There was a faint and strange feeling of heat on the surface of the pool. Zhulan put on a night vision helmet and saw several circular holes on the water.
Bamboo tube, there is someone under the water! Zhulan thought, she pointed her gun at the water and fired!
Before the bullet was fired, sword energy burst out from behind, and three ninjas flew out of the bushes, the swords in their hands shining with cold light!
Zhulan jumped up, his rifle shining in the darkness.
A ninja was shot and fell to the ground like a fallen leaf, with a terrifying hole in his chest.
