Chapter 90: Worshiping Buddha

The annual Christmas is coming, and the annual Christmas battle between Jiahe and Shaw Brothers has also begun.

Jiahe made the first effort and released Hong Jingbao's "Lin Shirong" on December 19. Hong Jingbao, who returned to the kung fu comedy, had a good momentum and received 2.41 million yuan in the first week, with a very impressive performance. Shaw Brothers released the romantic film "** Jade" directed by Li Hanxiang on the 22nd, and only won 720,000 yuan in three days of release.

By this calculation, Shaw Brothers' Christmas season this year is highlighted again.

As for Wang Jin's "King of Thousand Kings", after being swept by the tail of "Alien" in the first week, the box office increased in the second week and received another 2.25 million box office. The movie was released for 18 days, with a total box office of 4.26 million in Hong Kong, which was considered to be a barely recovering its capital.

Li Xuan was very satisfied with the result, but Wang Jin's face was not good. His first movie was seven million, and his second movie was only four million, which was a complete failure. In his opinion, it was a bit of a failure.

However, Li Xuan didn't care about Wang Jin's mood at this time, as long as he was in a good mood.

In Hong Kong, except for some government functional departments that do not have holidays, everyone else will have holidays. Li Xuan, who is doing the post-production of "King of Killers", will not treat himself badly. Anyway, the film could not be released before the New Year, so he was not in a hurry and gave himself two days off.

On Christmas Eve on the 24th, Li Xuan and Zhong Chuhong had a good rest at home and went to watch a movie in the evening. Of course, it was not Hong Jingbao's "Lin Shirong", but "** Jade". After watching a movie about Fengyue, Zhong Chuhong's pretty face turned red, while Li Xuan's index finger was shaking.

A cool breeze blew in from the windowsill. Li Xuan, who felt a little cold, pulled the thin quilt on his body in a daze, then stretched out his right hand, intending to hold Zhong Chuhong next to him and sleep happily for a while.

But my right hand actually stumbled into the air and touched the sheet with my hand, but no one was there?

Li Xuan opened his eyes and sat up halfway. He glanced at the bedroom with a confused look. The door was open, but there was no one else in the bedroom. But there was a burst of water coming from the bathroom, and it seemed that Zhong Xiaoniu was taking a shower.

So early?

Li Xuan looked out the window. The sun had just risen. There was still a thin layer of mist in the Lion Mountain Park in the distance. He picked up the alarm clock on the nightstand. It was just past 7:30.

"Crazy--"

With a light sound, the bathroom door opened and Zhong Chuhong walked out of the inside wrapped in a bath towel.

Beauty is out of the bath!

Li Xuan's eyes suddenly turned straight, and he watched Zhong Chuhong walking towards the bedroom, and asked quickly: "Xiao Niu, why are you doing so early? Today is Christmas!" He patted the bed next to him and continued: "Come on, sleep for a while."

Zhong Chuhong, who knew what Li Xuan was trying to make, rolled her eyes, opened the closet and started looking for clothes, and said by the way: "Get up quickly, Sister Pei will come to pick us up later."

Depend on!

Li Xuan stood up naked from the bed, put on his nightgown, and muttered with dissatisfaction: "It's so funny in the world. I actually went to worship Buddha on Christmas!"

Zhong Chuhong, who had found the clothes, turned around and smiled, "Who said that Sister Pei only believes in Buddhism? People don't believe in Jesus."

"Hey—" Li Xuan sighed, took out his clothes from the closet, and asked in confusion: "What do you think she wanted to ask us to worship Buddha? It would be fine if you have a good relationship with her, but she also deliberately told me to go with you."

"I don't know." Zhong Chuhong also shook his head in confusion: "It's probably related to the movie. Let's see what Sister Pei said then."

"Well, that's all." Li Xuan nodded in his clothes and responded.

but……

Zhong Chuhong wrinkled her nose, looked at Li Xuan and said, "Why haven't you gone to take a shower yet?"

"Don't you want to change your clothes?" Li Xuan said as if he had taken a bunch of clothes.

"rogue!"

Zhong Chuhong spat fiercely and pushed Li Xuan out of the bedroom.

"Bang!"

The door was closed heavily. Li Xuan touched his nose, smiled proudly, and turned around and walked towards the bathroom.

You can go to Wong Tai Sin Temple to worship gods in Hong Kong, but the first choice for worshiping Buddha is the Po Lian Zen Temple on Lantau Island.

Bao Lian Zen Temple is the most famous Ten-Ping Temple in Hong Kong. It was built in 1906 and is located on the Aung Ping Plateau of Lantau Island, between Phoenix Mountain and Maitreya Mountain. In front of the mountain gate, there are Muyu Peak and Fahua Pagoda on the left; there are Lotus Mountain and Lion Stone on the right, which can be called the charming place on Lantau Island.

Li Xuan is familiar with this place. He has been here several times when filming "Kunlun" and "Mr. Zombie". In fact, compared with the enlightened monks here, the empty Muyu Peak on the left is more attractive to Li Xuan. Because Baolian Zen Temple is preparing to build a Buddha statue about 30 meters high on Muyu Peak, which will definitely look spectacular after it is completed.

However, Li Xuan immediately discovered that Ding Peixin's Buddha was probably Guanyin Bodhisattva. After Xiang Tai brought everyone to Baolian Temple, he hurriedly worshiped the Great Hall and the Heavenly King Hall, and then ran to Guanyin Hall to kneel down. At this time, she was closing her eyes and folding her hands together, and while kneeling, she still muttered her chanting scriptures.

After struggling for five or six minutes, Ding Pei opened her eyes and prayed to Guanyin statue three times before she stood up.

As soon as everyone left the Guanyin Hall, Ding Pei smiled and said to Li Xuan: "Axuan, you won't laugh at me, you are practicing Guanyin Bodhisattva's method."

"No." Li Xuan waved his hand and replied casually: "I have always believed that a person with true faith is a person worthy of respect."

"Do you believe?" Ding Pei suddenly looked at the mountains in the distance lonely and murmured: "I'm just asking for peace of mind for life."

Rest in mind?

Li Xuan was stunned. What peace of mind was she asking for? Is it for Xiang Huaqiang? Or Li Xiaolong?

However, Ding Pei obviously did not have the interest to talk about this, and then asked with a smile on her face: "Ha, Axuan, are you interested in coming to Yongsheng to do things?"

Depend on!

Li Xuan was stunned for a moment, knowing that this woman had no good things to do for her, but she would just dig up from the other party's leader without having to poach?

"This, Sister Pei..." Li Xuan gritted his teeth and prepared to refuse.

"Haha." Ding Pei chuckled again: "I'm teasing you. How comfortable being a boss is to be someone else's subordinate? It's going to make you nervous."

"Hu——, Sister Pei, you scared me to death." Li Xuan said while patting his chest.

"What's scary?" Ding Pei glared at Li Xuan and continued: "Don't think that Brother Qiang is the eldest brother of Xin Yian, but he really likes the movie industry, so he won't do anything that breaks the rules. Don't worry."

"Haha..." Li Xuan smiled awkwardly.

"Forget it, you don't believe it after you say it, you will know later." Ding Pei said helplessly: "However, there are really two things to look for you this time."

"Sister Pei, I can help you with anything, just say it!" Li Xuan said while patting his chest.

Ding Pei nodded and then said, "The first thing is that if Yongsheng is really done, you, the younger brother, have to help the two brothers."

"This is no problem. If you want people, you need things. If you want things, Brother Qiang will say it." Li Xuan nodded and replied.

Ding Pei looked at Li Xuan in surprise and said, "You promised it with ease. Don't worry, we will follow the rules and will give you a penny of money."

Li Xuan pursed his lips secretly, knowing that you would not lose money from others, so he agreed to be so happy.

After seeing those gossip information in later generations, Yongsheng didn’t remember much of other gossips. Instead, he knew that this company had a big feature, which was very generous in spending money! Sometimes he even gave it to others without blinking a few million Hong Kong dollars. At that time, he would ask him to borrow someone and borrow money. Yongsheng would definitely be embarrassed to borrow for free, and he would have to pay.

"Okay!" Li Xuan nodded and asked, "What is the second thing?"

"The second thing..." Ding Pei paused and asked back: "Axuan, are you preparing to make a movie?"

Are you planning to invest again? Li Xuan was sweating all over his head, gritted his teeth and nodded and replied: "Well! He is preparing, and it is estimated that the filming will start after the New Year."

"That happens. I want to arrange for someone to learn how to be a director from you. That guy highly respects you." Ding Pei seemed to have not seen Li Xuan's expression and said indifferently.

When Li Xuan heard this, he was stunned. It seemed that he was not going to invest in the shares, so he hurriedly replied: "Yes, but Sister Pei, who are you talking about?"

"You know."

"I know?" Li Xuan thought for a while. Yongsheng was simply a shell company, so where did the director come from?

"Zeng Zhiwei, don't you know each other?" Ding Pei said with a smile.

Li Xuan only felt a twitching in the corner of his eyes. How did Zeng Zhiwei run to Yongsheng? According to history, he will be one of the seven monsters in Xinyi City after a while...

After considering it, Li Xuan asked curiously: "Isn't he in Luowei's film company?"

"They haven't signed an agent contract, they're just a cooperative relationship, and they're leaving as long as they want." Ding Pei explained casually, then smiled and said, "We elders want him to come, how can he not come?"

Khan! Li Xuan secretly observed a moment of silence for Zeng Zhiwei. Fatty Zeng was now suffering from his generation.

"Okay, the main thing is over. I'll take you guys to the vegetarian hall to try the vegetarian dishes here, which is the best here." Ding Peiyou laughed. After saying that, she didn't wait for Li Xuan and the others to speak, she turned around and walked down the stone steps.

Li Xuan also took Zhong Chuhong's hand and followed behind.
