Chapter 440 Gambling "What do you mean?! What do you mean by that?!" More than 20 minutes later, Liu Xiaoli's hysterical roar was heard in the office on the top floor, and Liu Yifei, who was standing by, did not even say a word to dissuade her. It turned out that in the face of Liu Xiaoli's repeated questioning, Wang Zhongjun kept making excuses, saying that Party A had not yet transferred the money, Huayi had not received the money, and naturally Liu Yifei could not get the money either. Later, seeing that Liu Xiaoli was getting a little anxious, Wang Zhongjun said that if she wanted to get some of the money before the New Year, there was not no way. Since Party A has chosen Liu Yifei to shoot the commercial, he naturally favors her. If Liu Yifei is willing to come out for social events, he guarantees that he can get back part of the advertising fee before the New Year. Considering Wang Zhongjun's reputation in the circle, the implied meaning of this statement is simply obvious! Not only was Liu Xiaoli furious, but Liu Yifei was also so angry that her pretty face turned red and her fists were clenched. "I don't think I said anything excessive." Wang Zhongjun shrugged and said innocently, "It's normal for the payment to be fast or slow. They didn't say they were going to default on the payment. It just takes some time." As he spoke, he looked at his watch and said to the mother and daughter, "I'm sorry, I still have to attend Director Xu's press conference. I will try my best to coordinate with Party A about the payment. Please wait a little longer." Then, without caring about their reactions, he left the office.
Liu Xiaoli was so angry that she wanted to bite her back teeth off. Although she had known for a long time that Huayi would definitely suppress Xixi, she never expected that she would be controlled by others over the issue of money. Although Liu Yifei was also angry, she was much more rational than her mother, so she pulled her mother and said, "Mom, we can't go on like this. We must find a backer inside Huayi, so that at least the Wang brothers will be afraid and dare not control us at will." Liu Xiaoli was moved when she heard this, and she forgot to be angry, and asked hurriedly: "What do you want to do?" "Godfather said that we can try to contact Deputy Chen Guo." Liu Yifei said immediately: "Godfather said that this man is quite capable. With the resources in Hong Kong and Taiwan, he has enough independent voice in Huayi. If he is willing to come forward to protect us." "Deputy Chen?" This answer was beyond Liu Xiaoli's expectations. However, Liu Xiaoli was a little shaken when she thought about the fact that Chen Guofu had once served as the director of Columbia's Asian production department and that Chen Guofu had contributed a lot to the approval of the project of "The Forbidden Kingdom". If Xu Kun is a potential stock, then Chen Guofu should be a blue chip stock. Between the two... "Excuse me." At this time, the female secretary pushed the door open and interrupted Liu Xiaoli's thoughts: "If you still want to discuss things with Mr. Wang, do you two need to go to another place to rest first?" This is a disguised form of driving people away. Liu Xiaoli snorted coldly and walked out first. After entering the elevator, she suddenly thought of something and asked in confusion: "Xixi, when did you meet your godfather?" Liu Yifei then realized that she had let the cat out of the bag, so she had to confess honestly: "Actually, I went to visit the prisoner in the detention center the day before yesterday." "No wonder." Liu Xiaoli suddenly realized: "You knew those things when you visited him in prison? Humph, this old Chen is really shameless, he has the nerve to say that!" Liu Yifei became more and more curious about what her godfather had done. She wanted to ask, but she was afraid that this would reveal the fact that she knew nothing. While I was struggling, the elevator had already stopped on the first floor.
Liu Xiaoli walked out of the elevator muttering to herself, and then was startled by the angry roar of a group of people in the hall. In fact, to be more precise, I was frightened by the roars of the Hong Kong reporters, because they basically spoke Cantonese. Liu Yifei was also a little surprised and wondered what this press conference was all about, so when Liu Xiaoli suggested finding someone to ask, she did not object. The person they are more familiar with in the company is Huo Siyan. Huo Siyan introduced with a gloating look: "Just now, Brother Kun started with Lan Jieying, the most beautiful woman in Wutai Mountain, and exposed a lot of scandals in the Hong Kong and Taiwan entertainment circles. If he hadn't been interrupted by the Hong Kong reporters, he would probably have been able to do it." [Note: Lan’s interview was before 08, but the news was actually revealed in 13. I brought it forward a bit so that everyone can assume that Brother Kun is more well-informed in the industry.] "Lan Jieying?" Liu Yifei was a little confused, and Liu Xiaoli frowned slightly. She seemed to have some impression, but couldn't remember who it was for a moment. "She is the spider spirit in A Chinese Odyssey. I heard that she was raped by two bigwigs in the Hong Kong film industry, which caused her to have mental problems..." "Be quiet, be quiet!" At this time, Xu Kun, who was standing alone on the stage, shouted a few times into the microphone, barely suppressing the noise from the audience, and then sneered: "Everything I just announced has at least human or material evidence, and the reports by the Hong Kong media accusing me of violating laws and regulations are all fabricated slander! What, the officials are allowed to set fires but the people are not allowed to light lamps?!" As soon as the voice fell, a question came from the audience: "How do you prove that those are all fake?! If they are true..." "If the news accusing me of violating the law is true, then I will donate all my property, turn myself in, and ask for a severe and strict punishment!" Biting someone to death was against the law, but consensual love between men and women was certainly not included. Xu Kun used his eyes to suppress the uproar in the audience: "Of course, this requires you Hong Kong people to testify. After all, your Hong Kong law is like this. Whoever accuses must provide evidence - but if anyone dares to make a false accusation, I will definitely sue him until he loses everything and his family is separated! In addition, I also welcome Hong Kong Island's celebrities to bet with me and accept public scrutiny like me. Otherwise, it would be ridiculous for them to slander others for being dirty when they themselves are full of shit! " While the reporters were talking and chatting, Liu Xiaoli asked Huo Siyan in disbelief, "Is the Hong Kong entertainment industry really that chaotic?" "What do you think?" Huo Siyan sneered, "The most chaotic things in our mainland are just the leftovers from Hong Kong Island. Recently, I heard that some people are starting to learn the folk remedies of raising ghosts at home and applying corpse oil on their lips." The former is fine, but the latter made Liu Yifei shudder and even feel a little sick - it was probably because she had been protected too well by her mother and godfather and had been exposed too little to the dark side. At the same time, among the dozens of Hong Kong reporters who had been discussing for half a day, only two people finally shouted loudly that they would take the bet on behalf of the Hong Kong entertainment industry. The others chose to remain silent. After all, they are just pretending to be blind, not really blind. How could they not know that the Hong Kong entertainment industry is actually even more filthy and smelly than the mainland entertainment industry? When things developed to this point, the Hong Kong reporters who were originally ready to attack Xu Kun had to temporarily stop. ………… After the press conference, the news that Xu Kun proposed to gamble with Hong Kong stars quickly spread to Hong Kong Island. Most of those old seniors who are in trouble are relatively "restrained", but no one has come out to respond. Isn't this tacitly admitting that the Hong Kong entertainment industry is dark? So some people specifically asked young people to come out and "take responsibility". The most popular person in Hong Kong at the moment is none other than Xie Tingfeng, but he has a lot of criminal records, including the hit-and-run case in 02 and the beating of Wang Bozhao in 04... Then it was Wu Yanzu, but Ah Zu was filming a drama in mainland China at the time, and was unwilling to show up because he was worried that it would affect his relationship with mainland actors.
So the order moved down, and the task of carrying the moral banner of Hong Kong artists fell on Chen Guanxi and Shawn Yue. Coincidentally, these two people were competing for the heart of Twins member Zhong Xintong, and they were fighting openly and secretly. So after Shawn Yue took the lead in responding to Xu Kun's bet, the "Photography Godfather" of the entertainment industry also jumped out without hesitation. That day was January 2008, 1.
