Uncle Shui's intention was already obvious. He wanted to take the initiative to make friends with Lorraine.
If Lorraine hasn't solved the problem of hongkong's support now, he doesn't mind helping Lorraine.
As a true Hongkong person, Uncle Shui is very aware of the problems that businessmen from the mainland will encounter if they want to come to Hongkong for development and investment.
First of all, it requires the support of local industries or forces with certain influence.
The xenophobia here has not lasted for a day or two. It is estimated that even if Lorraine came prepared, it would be difficult to reach an agreement for a while. Therefore, Uncle Shui wants to attack as soon as possible. If he can take the advantage earlier, then... maybe, Xinji's current situation of being the weakest among the three major underground forces in Hongkong will be reversed.
As mentioned before, even if they are underground societies, they are only seeking money.
No one is willing to fight and kill all his life. He dares to fight and kill just so that one day he can get ahead and live a life that he could not live before.
Speaking of which, many years ago, Xinji was still a well-known society in Hongkong. At that time, Xinji's business was spread all over Hongkong, and there was even some business overseas. It's a pity that after experiencing turmoil, they were no longer so strong. In the end, they were firmly suppressed by He Liansheng and Black Star who came from behind.
Currently, the ranking of hongkong underground societies from high to low is: Black Star, Heliansheng, and Xinji.
Wan Qiang, the leader of Black Star, is a mixed-blood who came to Hongkong from Thailand. He has a relatively low background, but with his courage, he has made a big difference. As for him, he made his fortune by selling drugs. As we all know, the Golden Triangle refers to an area gathered in Thailand, Vietnam, Myanmar and other places. It is rich in A goods. When Wan Qiang came to Hongkong, he not only brought He came with a lot of courage and brought a strong transaction pipeline.
When he first started his business, the goods he poured out were cheap and of high purity, so the sales were naturally smooth. At that time, there were still many bosses who didn't like him. After all, this guy came to steal other people's business. But Wan Qiang was not a vegetarian. He led a group of less than thirty people under his command and killed a lot of people. Blood Road took three years to establish a new underground society - Black Star.
Twenty or thirty years later, Wan Qiang is already in his fifties, but despite his strong physique, he is still very active. I heard that he can still sleep with his mistress for several nights in a row. But it's time for him to enjoy his blessings, and his sons, Wan Gongzi and Wan Long, have completely inherited his father's fine traditions. They have extraordinary methods and a very agile style of dealing with things. However, he did not inherit his father's ferocity. But this is not necessarily a bad thing. Wan Gongzi has filled up the shortcomings in this area with his sinister heart and ruthless thoughts.
After so many years of operation, Black Star's main income is now not just drug trafficking. After all, the investigation is getting stricter and the competition is fierce, so it has begun to expand new money-making projects, such as opening bars. , open karaoke, open a seafood restaurant, engage in freight transportation, real estate speculation and leasing, in short, they do everything that can make money, and... they also invest in the film industry, Hongkong even has several medium-sized entertainment companies, including Black Star of shares.
Although Black Star is the latest club to be established, its current achievements and edge directly overshadow the other two.
As for Heliansheng, it was established relatively early and has a history of more than 40 years. It was formed by some members of the then-disbanded Sanlian Association who moved south and then formed it. Due to its high reputation, it has been established since the beginning of the gang. , many retail investors responded to Heliansheng's call. After more than 40 years of development, they are not cool but stable enough and have been on the rise. They are engaged in all aspects, mainly investing in the film industry and real estate. In addition, , there are also bars and the like, but as for drug trafficking and drug trafficking, Black Star has a semi-monopoly there, and there is no profit.
However... To put it simply, He Liansheng and Black Star have one thing in common, that is, they are both involved in the film industry.
It can be seen that if Lorraine wants her film company's works to have a good box office and sales here, she will naturally have to open up some connections with underground forces.
At present, Lorraine has not had contact with anyone from Black Star or Heliansheng. In fact, even if he did, they might not necessarily buy it. Therefore, the wisest choice is to turn your attention to Xinji.
Speaking of which, although Xinji is the oldest, the business in which he made his fortune seems a bit unclassy. Xinji made his fortune by opening a beef grocery store. Even now, you can still see beef grocery stores with "Xinji" signs on many streets in Hongkong.
But don’t underestimate the catering industry. When Xinji Beef Grocery Store was the most popular, each store could make millions every year!
But it’s no longer possible now, and time-honored brands can’t make much money. Today’s new businesses can be said to have no focus on making money. This can be seen from Big D’s real estate business, Ahao’s porn movies, and Sweet Potato’s chicken coop. These three are the three well-deserved big brother-level figures under the name of Xinji in recent years. If the business under the big brother-level figures is like this, how can Xinji be prosperous
In fact, Uncle Shui has always wanted to find an opportunity for Xinji to invest in the film industry, not just occasionally investing in one or two movies like before, but... long-term cooperation with a certain film company, so that he can really make big money. .
It's a pity that all the film companies in Hongkong that have cooperation and financing have been taken advantage of by Black Star and Heliansheng. The only blame is that Xinji didn't have enough vision to enter this industry in time. But there is no way to regret it. Uncle Shui is not a person who is good at regretting. He has lived so long and has too many things to regret. It is useless to think about these things every day. Therefore, he always adheres to the belief that he should seize the opportunity, look forward, and take the next step well.
As Suan Tou, who has followed Uncle Shui for more than ten years, he naturally knew what Uncle Shui meant. Soon, he ordered his subordinates to check Lorraine's related hongkong investment information in detail again. The investigation results obtained made Uncle Shui smile.
Sure enough, as he expected, Lorraine has not yet found a hongkong partner in the film.
Not only that, the news also revealed that Lorraine had failed in his previous attempt to invade the Hongkong market. It seems that he was going to use the Chinese Supreme under his command to invade the market, right? In the end, he failed, or in other words, he didn't even see the city gate and went back home.
However, this Lorraine did not give up. I don’t know how he met Jackie, the number one person in Chinese movies today. In short, as a big boss of a film company, he wanted to get in touch with Hongkong again. This time Most of the movies were shot with hongkong actors, and a lot of location shooting took place in hongkong. It can be seen that his ambition to enter the hongkong market is obvious.
"Haha, I didn't expect it. This Lorraine is young but full of energy. Well, not bad... Not bad, he appeared at the right time..." After listening to Suan Tou's report, Uncle Shui couldn't help but nod and smile. The way.
Talking to himself, Uncle Shui put a cigarette to his mouth. With quick eyes and quick hands, he took out a lighter and lit it for Uncle Shui.
"Garantou, tell me, Lorraine...can I invite him?" After a pause, Uncle Shui suddenly asked.
Suan Tou shook his head and said: "I'm not sure, but according to my analysis, he should be a very wise person. As long as he is a wise person, he will not refuse Uncle Shui's request. This is for everyone to seek wealth and development together. thing."
Uncle Shui nodded.
… …
At the same time, in a studio in the West District.
"cut!!"
The director shouted, and today's fourth scene ended.
"Haha, Brother Jackie, I admire you more and more now." Lorraine smiled and waved to Brother Jackie, who was walking toward her from under the camera, "It's just been the morning, and three scenes have already been solved. Well, it seems that it shouldn’t be a problem to win eight scenes today.”
Brother Jackie smiled modestly: "Brother Xiao Luo, filming is not as simple as one plus one equals two. The three scenes this morning were not difficult at all. There were few shots and simple movements, so the filming was faster. But the remaining games weren’t that easy.”
Lorraine smiled and was about to speak, but her cell phone suddenly rang in her pocket.
"Excuse me, answer the phone."
With that said, Lorraine walked aside with a smile, took out the phone and looked at the number, and couldn't help but frown.
It's an unfamiliar number, and judging from the number and area code, it seems to be a phone number from Hongkong
who is it
Could it be that Meiyuan used someone else’s phone to call me
Lorraine doesn't have many friends in Hongkong. The only few friends she has are filming with him.
After hesitating for a moment, Lorraine still answered the phone in his hand.
"Hello, hello, is this Mr. Luo?" An old but majestic voice came over the phone.
Um? Is this voice familiar? It seems like you heard it somewhere
Lorraine frowned slightly and said to the other side of the phone: "Hello, who are you? -"
"You can call me Uncle Shui." The person on the phone paused and said straight to the point, "On behalf of Xinji, I would like to talk to Mr. Luo about... your film development. Of course, I am referring to Hongkong. On the other hand. If you like, I’ll be waiting for you at the Shangdao Cafe in the West District of Victoria Harbor."
“…”
There was a long silence, and Lorraine did not make any rebuttal. He raised the corners of his mouth with a half-smile, suppressing a trace of doubt and expectation in his heart, and actually agreed in one breath: "Okay, I'll rush there as soon as possible. ."
ps: It’s the weekend, as usual, please vote! !
