Chapter 375: First Meeting Bruce

"Haha, just kidding."

Mr. Bao laughed and waved his hands, "There are several mansions and plots of land on the Peak. How could we not know?"

“Forget about the mid-mountain areas. The areas that are neither up nor down should be given to the up-and-coming talents.”

Mr. Bao said this with great arrogance. Of course, he has the qualifications.

He also learned from the HSBC board of directors that Wang Deming still owned two luxury homes on the Peak.

But there are several people sitting in the living room, and it would be inappropriate for anyone to give up the seat. It is not convenient for Mr. Huo to live on the Peak, as the British dislike him, but other people have the ability to do so.

Originally this small circle was well maintained. But in the end it became disunited because of the two houses on the top of the mountain. Although the strategy of killing three warriors with two peaches is an old one, it targets human nature.

"Mr. Bao," Wang Deming put down his teacup and explained sincerely, "You also know that I have three wives, so the three properties on the top of the mountain have long been in their names."

Still a little helpless, "Every bowl of water must be kept even."

"Haha! That's right."

Then they talked about the recent economic situation in Hong Kong. Since the establishment of the Far East Club in 69, which was specifically for listing Chinese capital, Hong Kong's stock market has been rising again and doubled in 70.

Including low prices, housing prices, etc. are constantly breaking new highs. Especially as Hong Kong's population has shown explosive growth in recent years, housing issues have once again become the focus of Hong Kong.

Use Marxist theory of contradiction to explain: the contradiction between the growing population and the demand for ordinary housing.

Especially after the Hong Kong housing crash in 65, there were less than 2000 real estate companies left out of the 500 in Hong Kong at its peak, and there were not that many newly built residential houses.

There were no public rental housing in that era, so one can imagine how poor the living conditions of ordinary working people at the bottom of Hong Kong were.

In this regard, Wang Deming has done a lot. He has been building buildings on the land he acquired in 65 and then selling them in installments. In addition, several companies under his name also have special dormitory buildings for ordinary employees to apply for.

It's just a drop in the bucket.

They chatted until about 10 o'clock in the evening, when Mr. Bao and others got up and said goodbye.

"Mr. Huo and the others are gone?"

"Ah."

"Why aren't you guys down there chatting with Brother Dong?"

"Brother Dong is talking to Mr. Zhuang about real estate business, but we are not interested. We might as well play mahjong and watch TV." Zhang Shouchun, Diana, Jin Yuqing, and Qin Huairu happened to be playing mahjong at the same table.
"By the way, I heard from Li Hanxiang that Shaw Brothers seems to have invited someone back from the United States. He is quite capable. I wanted to sign a contract with him, but later I felt that the price was too high and so I didn't sign. I plan to meet and talk, and if it is suitable, I will sign him."

"Okay. The film company is yours anyway, you can do whatever you want."

Zhang Shouchun rolled his eyes and played a card in anger. "I did find out how to get rich. It turns out that I'm the only one working so hard to set up a film company. The other sisters are collecting rent from me."

"Haha. Isn't this what you like?" "Okay then. By the way, I heard that he has also filmed movies in the United States and knows real kung fu. Deming, do you want to have a competition with him?"

"It seems that you haven't lost yet today. That's fine. We can meet someday."

"Haha, Hu La, I'm lucky today."

Wang Deming did not take Zhang Shouchun’s suggestion of a simple interview seriously. He was just an actor, how high could the price be?

Mr. Wang is concerned about businesses worth hundreds of millions or even billions of Hong Kong dollars. How could he have the time to ask which actor it is?

Time passed quickly and it was June. After dinner one day, Zhang Shouchun suddenly talked about meeting with an American actor. She had already made an appointment with him and asked Wang Deming to accompany her.

Wang Deming agreed without hesitation.

This meeting took place at the newly built Han and Tang Film Studio next to Liyuan. Ever since Shaw Brothers' martial arts film "One-Armed Swordsman" broke the million box office in Hong Kong in 67, and "Dragon Inn" written and filmed by King Hu in 68 broke the record again, martial arts films have emerged in large numbers in Hong Kong in recent years.

As a result, Li Hanxiang even said that he wanted to retire. Although the few movies he made made money, they were far less than these martial arts films.

But Zhang Shouchun always supported him, because "Yangtze River Storm" directed by Li Hanxiang was a film reflecting the Anti-Japanese War. In her and Wang Deming's view, making money is secondary, and Mandarin films must still have emotions.

It would be even better if people like to watch the film.

The only thing that limits Li Hanxiang now is the shortage of screenwriters, until Wang Deming suggested that he talk to "Happy Tonight" host Xu Guanwen.

There are four brothers in Xu Guanwen's family, and their names are more talented than Wang Deming's: Wen, Wu, Ying and Jie. The eldest is Xu Guanwen.

At this time, Xu Guanwen's fame was far less than that of his fourth brother Xu Guanjie. Xu Guanjie formed a band in 67 and served as the lead singer of the Lotus Band. His album sold very well. He went solo in 70 and the album "Iron Tower Soaring into the Sky" released in 71 became an instant hit.

Especially since Xu Guanwen is the eldest in the family, he is always cold-faced and short, and is far from being as handsome as Xu Guanjie.
After watching the program hosted by Xu Guanwen, Li Hanxiang exclaimed that this man was talented. He ran to TVB with great interest and pulled Xu Guanwen to have a chat. They became close friends and came up with a movie through their conversation. He is currently writing the script.

It should be said that directors of this era all write their own scripts and attach great importance to them. Li Hanxiang often said: Script, script, the foundation of a play.
The reason why it is called Han and Tang Film and Television City is that only the Han and Tang dynasties have just been completed, and the Song Dynasty one is under construction. A total of 5000 million Hong Kong dollars have been invested in just these two dynasties, so you can imagine the scale.

Not only that, the original Liyuan Amusement Park has also changed a lot, adding a Ferris wheel, theater, restaurant, roller skating rink and other amusement venues and facilities. You can buy a combination ticket, only 6 cents for children and 2 yuan for adults.
At the gate of Han and Tang Film and Television City, Wang Deming, Zhang Shouchun, Li Hanxiang and Hu Jinquan came together and saw a short and thin young man with a watermelon head, wearing a floral shirt, flared jeans and sunglasses, who was observing the slope of the city gate tower from left to right.

It seems like it is ready to jump up at any time.

Next to the young man was a well-mannered young man wearing glasses and a suit, and a young woman with a fashionable perm, wearing a small suit and a skirt.

"Yanni!" Li Hanxiang waved at the woman and then introduced her to Wang Deming and Zhang Shouchun: "Mr. Wang, Mrs. Shouchun, this is my friend Lin Yanni, she is the host of Lido TV."

"She is a very talented woman who often writes articles in newspapers. Next to her is her ex-husband Li Zhongchen. The person we are meeting today is her ex-husband's younger brother."

"Hi, Director Hanxiang, Director Jinquan, long time no see." Lin Yanni came over and shook hands with Li Hanxiang and Hu Jinquan. She asked cheerfully, "You two must be Mr. Wang and Ms. Zhang Shouchun from Chunqiu Film and Television, right?"

Then he extended his hand to them and introduced them: "Come, let me introduce you two, this is my younger brother, Bruce Lee."
