The Most Powerful Tycoon Reborn In Xiangjiang

In 1974, New Year's Day and Spring Festival all fell in January.

And Chu Huan also slowed down his work affairs during this period of time, but in fact Chu Huan did not stop too much.

Although all kinds of business gatherings can be pushed as soon as possible, there are still some that cannot be pushed away. All business gatherings will not end until January 6th.

What followed were various private parties.

For example, the party with Li Xiaolong today.

Li Xiaolong has already completed the filming of Game of Death and has done all the post-production, but Li Xiaolong thinks that this movie does not match the atmosphere of the New Year, so he suggested Zou Wenhuai to save the movie until May release.

Zou Wenhuai, who was left with only Li Xiaolong supporting the facade, naturally agreed unconditionally.

In Li Xiaolong's villa, Li Xiaolong, Yuan Hua, Lin Zhengying, and Hong Jinbao gathered together.

Everyone is in this circle, some of them are working on kung fu movies, and Yuan Hua is the middleman, so although Hong Jinbao and Li Xiaolong do not have as many cooperations as in another time and space, their relationship is still good.

Several people are chatting now, and Ding Pei is also sitting next to Li Xiaolong.

Now that the relationship between the two has been made public, Ding Pei will live in Li Xiaolong's villa when Li Xiaolong's wife is not in Xiangjiang.

Brother Long, congratulations, the movie Enter the Dragon won a box office of 25 million US dollars in North America, and even ranked tenth on the North American box office list last year!

Hong Jinbao preached enviously.

If it is in later generations, the box office of 25 million US dollars may not even be considered the top ten box office in the first week, but in the dark period of Hollywood in the 1970s, the box office of 25 million can already be ranked in the top ten, and the local Hollywood movies The top ten goalkeeper 007: Live and Let Die only got a box office of 16 million US dollars!

Li Xiaolong is also very satisfied with such achievements. The production cost of his Enter the Dragon is only 800,000 US dollars. According to Hollywood, this is only a C-level production!

In the end, it defeated many A-level productions and entered the top ten box office charts. Of course, it is worth being happy!

And it feels great.

It's just the beginning now, and it will get better and better in the future! Li Xiaolong said with a smile.

Hong Jinbao still said enviously: If only I can make such a powerful movie in the future!

When Li Xiaolong heard what Hong Jinbao said, he laughed and said, Sanmao, you are not bad either. I heard that the box office of your last film was over 5 million, which is amazing!

Although Li Xiaolong's Enter the Dragon made a good start in Hollywood, but as Li Xiaolong's tough movie style began to make Xiangjiang's movie audience feel aesthetically tired, this movie did not cause such a big sensation in Xiangjiang.

On the contrary, the witty action films led by Hong Jinbao began to slowly become the mainstream of Hong Kong action films.

Hong Jinbao said modestly: This is also thanks to Huan Shao's support, otherwise, I might still be groping for my own movie style!

Speaking of Chu Huan, Li Xiaolong looked at the time and said helplessly: What time is it, why hasn't Ah Huan come here yet!?

The party tonight was initiated by Li Xiaolong, and he had already called Chu Huan, but it was obviously past time now, and Li Xiaolong was inevitably a little worried.

Yuan Hua whispered: I read in the newspaper that Young Master Huan has been attending various business gatherings during this period, whether it is a charity party at the Governor's Mansion or a dinner at the General Chamber of Commerce. Is there anything else Mr. Huan has to do today? Can't make it through?

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the living room suddenly became a little depressed.

At this time, Chu Huan was no longer the former Chu Huan, although Chu Huan's business activities had been reported by newspapers before, and even True News also mentioned Chu Huan's net worth.

But no matter what happened at that time, in the hearts of Li Xiaolong and others, Chu Huan's net worth did not exceed one billion.

It's different if it's less than one billion, and if it's more than one billion, or even two or three times more than one billion.

We are all adults, and we all know that everyone has different circles at different stages.

Status represents the difference in this person's circle.

Now whenever Chu Huan appears in the newspaper, there are always some big businessmen around him, and what about them?

To put it nicely, he is a Xiangjiang superstar, but to put it bluntly, he is actually a wage earner.

The net worth of all these people added up, not even Chu Huan's fraction.

It's not that they are blaming Chu Huan, but simply feeling inferior

Yuan Hua asked Hong Jinbao curiously: Brother, how long has it been since you saw Young Master Huan?

Hong Jinbao smiled awkwardly, and said: It's been half a year, and you know what Huan Shao was busy with before. Let alone seeing us, he rarely even went to the company.

Black and white images are already out of reach for these people, but now Chu Huan doesn't even care about black and white images.

Everyone sighed again.

No, Ah Huan will definitely come over!

When everyone was silent, Li Xiaolong was the first to break the silence.

And he reaffirmed with incomparable firmness: As long as Ah Huan says it, she will definitely come!

Yuan Hua didn't say anything, but she still couldn't help thinking that even if Chu Huan was willing to come over, there was a high probability that she would have to wait until she was busy with her own business.

By that time, it may have come to the end of their time.

Just when everyone was thinking about it, a burst of dazzling light shone into the living room.

Everyone in the living room got up with different expressions.

Li Xiaolong walked out of the living room immediately, went outside the villa, and saw Chu Huan and Miao Kexiu walking out of the car.

After getting out of the car, Chu Huan was stunned for a moment when he saw everyone standing at the door, and then said with a smile: It's so grand, don't you think anyone of you wants to ask me to borrow money?

Hearing Chu Huan's ridicule, Li Xiaolong suddenly laughed and said, Don't we have enough money for ourselves? Why bother you borrowing money!

Chu Huan pretended to be relieved, and said with a smile: It's not enough to borrow money, we are good friends if we don't borrow money!

Everyone laughed.

Miao Kexiu, who was standing beside Chu Huan, smiled and said to Li Xiaolong: Brother Long, I'm sorry, Brother Huan was waiting for me just now, otherwise we would have arrived long ago!

But Li Xiaolong said indifferently: A Huan should wait for you, besides, don't we have nothing to do?

Everyone talked and laughed and walked into the living room again.

After taking his seat, Chu Huan said to Hong Jinbao: Sanmao, I heard from Fang Jianhui that you also want to set up your own satellite company?

As Xu Guanwen established his own Xu's Film Industry with the investment of black and white images, Hong Jinbao also began to move around. After all, by setting up his own film company, he could earn more. No one thought before setting up a film company. Your own movies will lose money.

Hong Jinbao thought that Chu Huan was dissatisfied with what he did, so he smiled awkwardly: I just want to see my own strength.

Chu Huan said with a smile: Your ability is definitely not a problem. The market for witty action movies is huge, even bigger than the market for Brother Long's hard-working movies. If you do it well, you will benefit from it for life!

It's not that Chu Huan is touting the market for humorous action movies, but it has been proved in another time and space.

Watching too many Li Xiaolong movies will inevitably give people a sense of déjà vu, especially in action. After all, it is difficult to have too much innovation in pure kung fu routines. Even Li Xiaolong will have a day when his talent is exhausted.

And this matter has begun to show up now, otherwise even if the movie Raptors Crossing the River takes into account the cultural attributes of Western audiences, the box office of the movie in Xiangjiang should not be so low compared to Li Xiaolong For other movies.

Hearing that Chu Huan was not blaming him, but encouraging himself, Hong Jinbao's face flushed with excitement.

Young Master Huan, don't worry, I will work hard!

Li Xiaolong on the side pretended to be dissatisfied at this time and said: A Huan, you are wrong, you said my movie is not good in front of me, don't forget that Enter the Dragon has achieved great success in North America.

Chu Huan said indifferently: I don't believe that Brother Long, you didn't discover this yourself, otherwise, you wouldn't have gone to South Korea to study The Raptors Crossing the River before Xiangjiang was released. Your Game of Death!

Li Xiaolong's expression changed, and he said helplessly: Then what do you think should be done?

The box office of Way of the Dragon in Xiangjiang was not satisfactory, which always made Li Xiaolong a little unhappy.

Chu Huan smiled triumphantly: You beg me, you beg me, I'll tell you!

Li Xiaolong shook his neck and said loudly: Scholars can be killed, but not humiliated, let me beg you, unless the sun rises from the east!

Just as everyone was lamenting Li Xiaolong's toughness, Ding Pei said in puzzlement: Isn't the sun rising in the east?

Li Xiaolong immediately boasted and showed a flattering smile: So, A Huan, please tell me quickly, Brother Long, please!

When everyone saw Li Xiaolong's appearance, they all seemed to vomit.

Chu Huan said with a smile: It's actually very simple, that is to work hard on the story!

Action movies have a problem, that is, it is difficult to perfectly combine literary drama with action. Weak literary drama seems to have become a label of action movies.

Li Xiaolong naturally understood this question, scratching his head and said: Everyone knows the prescription, but everyone doesn't know how to cure the disease?

Action dramas have been weak for decades, and there are no movies that can perfectly solve this problem, so what Chu Huan said now, in the eyes of Li Xiaolong and others, is a bit empty!

Chu Huan thought for a while, and then said: Simply speaking, in a movie, you can't fight just because of the fight, but there must be a story foreshadowing, emotional suppression, when the critical point is reached, and then the protagonist explodes, only such audiences It will be fun to watch, and you will think that you have enjoyed this battle.

Chu Huan always believes that no matter if it is a novel, movie, or TV, no matter what type it is, what it needs to do is to make the audience resonate with the content in it!

What love movies want is to make the audience think that there is really beautiful love in this world, and the regret that they can't love with their real situation is released in the movie.

Uh. Japan's *** also counts!

Comedy movies, in those seemingly absurd plots, allow the audience to get emotional release.

So later on Chu Huan couldn't understand, why did those later sketches in China have to forcibly add sensational plots in the final stage?

I fucking watched you just to have fun, but you fucking made me cry?

Action movies, especially the action movies of Li Xiaolong's style, are actually similar to the cool novels of later generations.

It's just that the more the audience watches this type of movie, the more enjoyable it is. This requires film workers to add stories that are more able to mobilize the audience's emotions.

In short, this type of audience has become a no-nonsense person!

Hearing what Chu Huan said, Li Xiaolong fell into deep thought. In fact, not only Li Xiaolong, but also Hong Jinbao.

Both of them are movie geniuses, they can not only act, but also direct and edit!

Chu Huan's words had already inspired them a lot.

time to eat!

At this time, Ding Pei's voice came from the restaurant, Chu Huan and the others got up and went directly to the restaurant.

A Huan, tell me in detail about the establishment of this hatred.

Sitting at the dining table, Li Xiaolong continued to ask Chu Huan.

I should have found some web editors for you in the previous life. They are quite familiar with this. Chu Huan thought for a while and said: It's actually very simple. The general hatred in the world is similar, but national hatred and family hatred are the most important. In general, Brother Long, your Fist of Fury was like this.

Li Xiaolong nodded and said, I will study it carefully!

Chu Huan nodded indifferently.

Afterwards, several people discussed this topic for a long time. For example, Chu Huan gave a suggestion.

The experience of the Chinese working in western North America, at that time, the Chinese were not respected in North America not only at that time, but in fact, it will be the same now and even in the future.

Creating a story based on the conflict between Chinese people and North American aborigines naturally brings sympathetic hatred to the audience.

After a meal until late at night, Chu Huan and Miao Kexiu returned to Miao Kexiu's villa in Repulse Bay.

There were many gatherings like this, and Chu Huan visited Jian Yueqiang, Tang Jiqian, Huo Tsar, Guo Desheng, Feng Jingxi and other seniors who treated him well.

Another small gathering with Tang Yunian, Guo Desheng, Feng Yongfa, Zheng Jiachun and others.

In this way, the time came to the New Year's Eve in 1973!

The bodyguards around Chu Huan had family members in Xiangjiang, and they were all sent home by Chu Huan on vacation. Those without family members in Xiangjiang were called to the villa in Repulse Bay by Chu Huan. As for returning to their hometown, it was impossible.

Also here are sister-in-law Chu Duanqing, ghost spirit Zhong Xiaoqing, Chu Huan's fiancée Cao Yunshang, and confidante Miao Kexiu.

Brother, you lied to me. It's been a long time, and I haven't caught any fish in the swimming pool!

Zhong Xiaoqing was wearing a white down jacket, sitting round and round on a chair by the pool, holding a fishing rod in her hand, but at this moment she was looking at Chu Huan with indignation.

Chu Huan held back his smile and said, How long have you just sat down, and you want to catch fish!

Zhong Xiaoqing opened her eyes wide and said aggrievedly: Although I am young, I am not stupid. I know that there are no fish in the swimming pool!

Chu Huan laughed: I know there are no fish, so I'm still fishing here!

Zhong Xiaoqing said: I just want to see how bad you are, brother!

Chu Huan: .

Come here Qingqing, your brother is too bad, don't play with her!

Miao Kexiu came over, and said to Chu Huan angrily, How can you lie to children like this!

After saying this, Miao Kexiu wanted to take Zhong Xiaoqing away.

But it was obvious that Zhong Xiaoqing didn't want to leave with Miao Kexiu, but she puffed her face and said seriously: No, sister-in-law, I want to make my brother feel ashamed, so he can take me to buy firecrackers!

Miao Kexiu has already accepted Zhong Xiaoqing's title, and said with a smile: Your brother has already bought firecrackers, and they are stored in the warehouse. I will take you to get them!

A girl always wants to play with firecrackers!

Chu Duanqing came out of the living room and preached to Zhong Xiaoqing dissatisfied.

No, I'm going to play!

While talking, Zhong Xiaoqing had already thrown the fishing rod aside, hugged Miao Kexiu's thigh, and said, Sister-in-law, take me to find firecrackers!

Miao Kexiu smiled and said to Chu Duanqing: Sister-in-law, let Qingqing play for a while!

Chu Duanqing couldn't refute Miao Kexiu's face, and said to Zhong Xiaoqing: I can only play for a while!

Okay! Zhong Xiaoqing immediately said with a beaming smile.

After watching the two leave, Chu Duanqing sat next to Chu Huan, was silent for a while, and then said: Should I call your aunt and third uncle?

Chu Huan said indifferently: Sister, if you want to fight, you can fight!

It was impossible for Chu Huan to forgive those people, but Chu Huan would not force his sister-in-law to think the same as him.

When Chu Duanqing heard what Chu Huan said, he already knew what Chu Huan meant, and after sighing, he didn't say anything.

Sister-in-law, can you see if there is anything else that needs to be prepared?

Cao Yunshang also came out of the living room.

OK!

Chu Duanqing cleared up his mood, stood up with a smile and walked towards Cao Yunshang.

You don't have to stay here anymore, go and see if there is anything that needs help in the kitchen. It's Chinese New Year, although you can't go home, you can still make some small dishes from your hometown!

Chu Huan preached to Gu Sha and others who were guarding the courtyard.

They are the second batch to come to Xiangjiang, and their family members are not in Xiangjiang.

But it's coming soon, because the three major factories under Chu Huan's name will start construction after the New Year, and those people contacted by Lin Feng will also be able to come to Xiangjiang one after another by then, and Gu Sha and others will also get the benefits of following Cao Yunshang and the others. With approval, they can bring their family members over and arrange work.

Gu Sha and the others nodded and went to help in the kitchen.

The servants in the villa have already been put on leave by Chu Huan, so all the servants who are busy today are his own.

Cao Yunshang sat next to Chu Huan, and said with some distress: After the new year, Huaye City, the printing factory, the toy factory, the electrical appliance factory, and the film studio will all start construction. Are you busy here?

Chu Huan leaned in Cao Yunshang's arms, found a comfortable position and said, It's not a big problem. There is Lu Qi in Huaye City, and Tianming will follow. There will be no problems. The printing factory and the toy factory are run by Wu Xiao Poetry, Zhong Zhichen and the others are watching, and the people from Huhua Real Estate will not be too big of a problem. As for the electrical factory, there is Haichao, so you can rest assured. As for the studio, Hu Yingxiang's construction company will follow, the problem should be It won't be too big either.

The printing factory and toy factory are affiliated factories of Fantasy Comics, but they are not in charge of Kamakura Yasuo and others, but are handed over to Zhong Zhichen by Chu Huan. At the same time, a group of secretarial staff led by Wu Xiaoshi will also follow.

Not a big problem in the early stage.

As for the studio, Hu Yingxiang has already completed the acquisition of the land, and construction will also start in the next year. Even if it is to repay Chu Huan for his help, Hu Yingxiang will take this matter seriously.

Of course, the investigation team of Jiaku Consulting Company and Fang Jianhui will also follow this project.

Cao Yunshang stroked Chu Huan's cheek, Is it true that this year won't be as busy as last year?

Chu Huan told Cao Yunshang before that this year is the time for him to consolidate the results of last year, and there should be no more acquisition plans, so this year will not be as busy as last year.

Cao Yunshang smiled and said, In this case, the company bosses in Xiangjiang can breathe a sigh of relief.

Chu Huan's acquisition of Hang Lung Real Estate caused a sensation in Xiangjiang, which has not subsided until now.

Because no one knew exactly how much cash Chu Huan had in his hand, and what companies Chu Huan would be interested in, those companies in economic crisis were all cautious, for fear that their company would become Chu Huan's target.

Chu Huan smiled, of course he knew the thoughts of the company bosses in Xiangjiang, but Chu Huan definitely didn't have this idea now.

The cash in his hand has already been spent by Chu Huan, and Huhua Real Estate and Hang Lung Real Estate also spent a lot of money hoarding land at the previous Hong Kong government auction of land, plus sporadic acquisitions, at this time Chu Huan Even if Huan had an idea, he didn't have the funds.

The two chatted for a while, then heard the sound of firecrackers coming from the front yard.

Looking at each other and smiling, they knew that Miao Kexiu was leading Zhong Xiaoqing to play happily.

The time came to noon.

Chu Duanqing greeted everyone to have lunch together.

In the afternoon, Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang went to Cao's house. Although Cao Yunshang and Chu Huan were not married yet, this year's Chinese New Year, Cao Yunshang had already spent the New Year with Chu Huan.

On New Year's Eve in Xiangjiang, there will be no Spring Festival Gala, but TVB and Lai TV both have their own New Year's programs.

To be honest, the New Year atmosphere in Xiangjiang is still very strong at this time.

After Chu Huan and his group finished dinner, Chu Huan carried Zhong Xiaoqing to the front yard and set off fireworks.

Zhong Xiaoqing's hands turned red.

Brother, I want to go to the flower market. All my classmates say the flower market is very lively!

After the fireworks, Zhong Xiaoqing raised her neck and said coquettishly to Chu Huan.

Every New Year, the flower market in Xiangjiang will be open. It is similar to the night market in the hometown of later generations, but it is larger than the night market. In the huge square, all kinds of vendors are neatly divided into rows. have.

What kind of flower market are you going to? It's too messy. Don't you have everything at home!

Chu Duanqing didn't want Zhong Xiaoqing to go there, because there were too many people there, and safety became a problem.

Chu Huan smiled and said: It's okay, you can go if you want, we have so many people, don't worry about safety!

Hearing what Chu Huan said, Zhong Xiaoqing immediately clapped her hands happily.

Chu Duanqing gave Zhong Xiaoqing a spoiled look, and finally agreed.

So a group of people immediately drove to the flower market.

When he came to the flower market, Chu Huan suddenly had the feeling of going to the market when he was a child. It was crowded with people, and it was very lively. There were stalls selling goods and street performers.

When Zhong Xiaoqing came here, it was like a fish entering the sea, happily buying and buying.

Chu Duanqing followed, surrounded by bodyguards, while Chu Huan, Cao Yunshang, and Miao Kexiu followed behind, chatting and laughing.

The group of them naturally attracted some people's attention in the flower market.

When there are many people, not only is there excitement, but there are also troubles.

A man wearing a jacket with a somewhat wretched expression noticed Chu Huan and his party.

As the Adam's apple turned, a blade appeared in his mouth, but when he was about to go over, he found the bodyguard beside Chu Huan, who faintly separated Chu Huan and his party from the others, and finally shook his head. Shaking his head, he changed his target.

He was looking for money, not trouble.

There are still many people like him in today's flower market, but these people have the same ideas as him. After seeing the situation on Chu Huan's side, they all chose to give up the matter of profiting from Chu Huan.

They still know who they can offend and who they cannot offend.

Children are energetic, but they also go quickly. Zhong Xiaoqing, who was running wild just now, has already fallen asleep in the arms of the bodyguard.

Seeing this situation, Chu Huan and others decided to leave.

It was already late at night when we returned to Repulse Bay Villa.

Although Chu Duanqing stayed here tonight, he had taken care of Zhong Xiaoqing to sleep at this time.

Chu Huan suggested that Cao Yunshang and Miao Kexiu should have another drink!

The two of them had no opinion on Chu Huan's suggestion.

So in the restaurant, the three of them started.

It wasn't until after two o'clock in the morning that the three of them had a drink, and Chu Huan didn't get what he wanted. Cao Yunshang and Miao Kexiu each returned to their own rooms.

Seeing this, Chu Huan knew that the revolution had not yet succeeded, and comrades still needed to work hard!

One night, running between the two bedrooms, Chu Huan was tired and happy!

On the second day, the first day of the new year, Chu Huan was woken up by Zhong Xiaoqing. Seeing Zhong Xiaoqing jumping on her bed, Chu Huan showed helplessness.

Couples are posted, couplets are posted!

Zhong Xiaoqing wanted to drag Chu Huan up on the bed.

Chu Huan stretched his waist long, and said with a smile: Post up Spring Festival couplets!

So at this time, there is really no big difference between Xiangjiang and my hometown in terms of New Year. Eating dumplings on New Year's Eve and posting Spring Festival couplets on New Year's Day are all necessary!

After Chu Huan got up to wash, he took Cao Yunshang and the couplets that Zhong Xiaoqing picked out at the flower market yesterday, and prepared to paste the couplets!

In fact, those bodyguards can do these things, but Chu Huan wants to have a sense of participation. As for the so-called rich people, they shouldn't do these things.

In Chu Huan's place, these are all nonsense. I am so rich, so naturally I want to be happy!

So Chu Huan took Zhong Xiaoqing and started posting Spring Festival couplets one by one.

After working for most of the morning, just when Chu Huan wanted to give up, this huge project was considered over.

Standing at the gate of the villa, Chu Huan looked at the deserted street and knew that everyone was celebrating the New Year at home!

1973 passed, 1974 came!

Also, the next chapter is at eight in the morning~
