Chapter 215 Shao Daheng’s impatience
After the competition ended, Zhang Yi did not return to Hong Kong immediately. He still needed to digest what he learned from the competition.
Of course, to rectify those hundreds of theaters, Zhang Yi does not need to personally intervene at all. He will just transfer some talents from Hong Kong theaters to the United States. What he needs is support from behind.
"Boss, the ghost master is here." Lin Xiao walked in and said to Zhang Yi.
"Oh! He really came to the door." Zhang Yi smiled and said. Could it be that this guy really got the true biography of Sun Clan.
"Mr. Tang Xiaoyun, I didn't expect to see you again." Zhang Yi greeted him with a smile.
"Haha." Tang Xiaoyun smiled and said, "I heard that Mr. Zhang is a disciple of Sun Clan and also practices Tai Chi. How about we help each other?"
Zhang Yi glanced at Tang Xiaoyun, not expecting him to be so direct, and then said with a smile: "Okay!"
When we join hands to try our best, the competition is much gentler and more friendly.
Zhang Yi also saw from the Tang Xiaoyun Tai Chi pusher that this guy had indeed learned Sun style Tai Chi, but it was not pure. There were also Yang style Tai Chi, Wu style Tai Chi, and even Li style Tai Chi, and he had mastered it.
He has practiced so well. No wonder he can beat the Mafia and Hongmen to the point where they have to resort to gambling to solve their problems.
Of course, Hongmen's compromise with the Mafia, apart from Tang Xiaoyun's own force, may have something to do with the US government behind him.
There is organization and strength. What's more, behind Tang Xiaoyun is a superpower.
"I didn't expect Mr. Tang Xiaoyun to be proficient in the four schools of Tai Chi. I admire him! I admire him!" Zhang Yi said with a smile. I really admire him in his heart. As a ghost, he can practice Tai Chi to this level, which is worthy of admiration.
"Haha. You're welcome, Mr. Zhang." Tang Xiaoyun said with a smile, "Mr. Zhang's kung fu is so pure, I think his disciples must have learned your true skills and become masters."
Zhang Yi glanced at Tang Xiaoyun and then said: "I haven't seen them for a long time. I don't know how far they have practiced kung fu."
Zhang Yi did not expect that Tang Xiaoyun came to his door not because of Kung Fu, but because of his apprentice. Moreover, Zhang Yi believed that this guy came for Luo Shukai. In other words, this guy came for what Luo Shukai snatched from Joseph.
of.
"Haha!" Tang Xiaoyun glanced at Zhang Yi and then said, "I heard that Mr. Zhang has three apprentices in total. The eldest apprentice is the son of Zhao Chenxi, the Hongmen tycoon in Southeast Asia, and the second apprentice is Miss Huo from Hong Kong. These two people are obviously
It’s difficult to have a special status. It’s obviously difficult to pass on Zhang Yi’s kung fu. The person who can pass on Mr. Zhang’s kung fu may be the third apprentice of a Chinese-American. Your three apprentices came with Mr. Zhang when he came to the United States this time.”
Sure enough! This guy really came for Luo Shukai.
Zhang Yi glanced at Tang Xiaoyun and then said: "Mr. Tang Xiaoyun, if you have something to say, you might as well say it directly."
"I'm looking for your three apprentices." Tang Xiaoyun looked at Zhang Yi and said directly.
"Joseph asked me for someone, saying that my apprentice took his things. I wonder why Mr. Tang Xiaoyun asked me for someone?" Zhang Yi smiled, looked at Tang Xiaoyun and said.
"The things he took belong to the US government." Tang Xiaoyun stared at Zhang Yi and said.
"I don't know what that thing is, and I don't want to know. As for who it belongs to, I don't want to ask. You are looking for my apprentice, so I am looking for him. When I came to the United States, he disappeared. I was
I am going back to Hong Kong to see if he has gone back on his own. If he has not gone back, I will have to ask Mr. Tang Xiaoyun for help. I heard that you are a senior executive of the CIA, and it is much easier to find someone in the United States than me." Zhang Yi.
Said with a smile.
When Tang Xiaoyun heard this, his face turned cold. He naturally heard the cynicism in Zhang Yi's words.
Tang Xiaoyun left a little unwillingly. He did not dare to use force with Zhang Yi. After all, Zhang Yi's status was somewhat special. Moreover, even if they used force, the two of them were only between brothers, and no one was sure who would win.
"Boss, there are a lot of people staring at us outside. It seems there are two groups of people." Xu Liang walked in and said to Zhang Yi.
"The two groups must be the Mafia and the US government. Don't worry about them, they are not here for us." Zhang Yi smiled bitterly and then said, "Now I am also interested in what that guy took.
.”
"Would you like to ask Hong Kong if Mr. Luo has returned to Hong Kong?" Xu Liang said immediately.
"Yeah! That's fine!" Zhang Yi nodded, and suddenly a movie flashed in his mind, and then he called Xu Liang, who was leaving, and said, "Wait! Forget it. I'll go back to Hong Kong directly. You take me with you
If these people stay, if Joseph is honest and surrenders to the theater, that's it. If he is dishonest, you make him be honest."
The movie Zhang Yi appeared in was of course "Public Enemy"! People like the Mafia can ignore it, but who knows that Tang Xiaoyun didn't install some bugging device on the phone he used.
Then Zhang Yi took Li Xiao back to Hong Kong, while Xu Liang and Lin Xiao stayed behind.
Back in Hong Kong, "Myth" has been fully completed. His box office has also created a myth.
It exceeded 50 million in Hong Kong, and also broke the highest box office record, directly reaching the top of the box office list in Hong Kong. Moreover, Japan, South Korea, and various places in Southeast Asia have all broken their country's highest box office records. In other words, "Myth" directly refreshed the box office record.
The box office records of movies in Southeast Asian countries.
The box office in Southeast Asia is very popular, and it is also very popular in North America, Europe and other places. Especially in North America, "Myth" has been the box office champion for three weeks in a row, becoming the best box office performance of Hong Kong movies or Chinese movies in North America.
The total box office in North America directly exceeded the record set by Zhang Yi's "Resident Evil" for Chinese films in North America, with a total of more than 90 million US dollars, almost breaking the 100 million mark.
In mainland China, the direct box office has exceeded 100 million, surpassing "Shaolin Temple" and "Ip Man". Even in terms of the number of moviegoers, "The Myth" has surpassed "Shaolin Temple" to become the true box office hegemon in mainland China.
"He really didn't return to Hong Kong?" Zhang Yi looked at Wu Jie, with some worry flashing in his eyes.
If he had not returned to Hong Kong, he would probably still be in the United States. Now in the United States, not only the mafia is looking for him, but also the CIA.
"Then please pay attention and notify me immediately if there is any news." Zhang Yi said. This apprentice of his is really not a worry.
"Boss, Boss Shao is here." Li Xiao came in and said to Zhang Yi, "It's in the living room downstairs."
"Uncle Six. Why do you have time to come to my place again?" Zhang Yi went downstairs and said to Shao Daheng with a smile.
"Why, I can't come, or are you not welcome?" Shao Daheng rolled his eyes at Zhang Yi and said immediately. Now they are several dozen years apart in age, but they speak with the same tone and demeanor as if they were the same age.
"How could it happen? You are most welcome. It would be great if Uncle Six could come to this humble house!" Zhang Yi said with a smile, then sat on the sofa opposite Shao Daheng, looked at him and said, "Uncle Six will probably not come.
Come chat with me."
"I heard that you bought hundreds of theaters in the United States?" Shao Daheng asked immediately.
Zhang Yi transferred people from the Hong Kong theater chain to the United States. As a shareholder of the theater chain, Shao Daheng would naturally know about it.
"Haha, I didn't buy any theater!" Zhang Yi smiled and said.
"If you didn't buy it, then why did you send someone over?" Shao Daheng frowned and said.
"Those hundreds of theaters were not bought. They were won from a swindler." Zhang Yi said with a smile.
"You kid!" Upon hearing this, Shao Daheng pointed at Zhang Yi and cursed with a smile. However, he was also very shocked in his heart. Five hundred theaters are not a small number. As Zhang Yi said, the guy who lost to him was really a
Taken advantage of.
"When will the movie you are starring in be released? Many people are planning to adjust the schedule." Shao Daheng asked immediately.
"Oh, schedule adjustment. Who wants to compete with me?" Zhang Yi asked in surprise.
"Who dares to fight with you? They adjusted the schedule to avoid crashing with you!" Shao Daheng looked at Zhang Yi and said angrily, "If it were just a movie directed by you, there might be people who would fight with you regardless of life or death.
. But this is not only your director, it is also the first film starring your kid, and maybe the only film. Let’s not talk about the quality. Even if it is a piece of rubbish, there will be many people who buy tickets to watch it. What’s more,
How could the movie your kid made be rubbish?"
With Zhang Yi's popularity, the first and perhaps only movie he starred in can support the box office with his current popularity. Moreover, the box office will not be low.
"Probably during the summer vacation!" Zhang Yi thought for a while and then said.
Shao Daheng nodded, then looked at Zhang Yi and said: "When will you start preparations for the sequel to "Resident Evil"?"
"Uncle Six, aren't you a little anxious? My movie hasn't even been released yet?" Zhang Yi said with a wry smile.
"You kid, don't tell me that you have to take a break for half a year or something. When you make a movie, you finish filming this one and start preparing for the next one before it is released." Shao Daheng said.
Zhang Yi glanced at Shao Daheng and had nothing to say. He was almost always like that when making movies. Could it be that this old guy was hit by something, so he was so eager to make a sequel to "Resident Evil".
"Okay! I'm working on the script now!" Zhang Yi said helplessly.
"What! You haven't written the script yet? Didn't you adapt the novel "Resident Evil" based on the script? The novel has come out, why haven't you written the script yet?" Shao Daheng was very angry, thinking that Zhang Yi was deceiving him.
"Uncle Liu, the novel "Resident Evil" is adapted and expanded based on the first one. You can't let me take the novel and shoot it directly. Don't worry, the story is already in my mind. What's more, I wrote
Uncle Liu is worried about the speed of the script." Zhang Yi looked at Shao Daheng and then said, "However, Uncle Liu's investment in this sequel is much higher than that of the first one. Whether it is scenes, backgrounds, or characters.
Much more."
"Forty million! As much as you need for the rest, you can invest it yourself." Shao Daheng thought for a while and then said.
"Forty million US dollars is not that much." Zhang Yi said with a smile.
Chapter completed!
