Rebirth of Hong Kong: Rising Era

Chapter 105 The Workaholic
Wang Yaodong asked Li Lizhen where she wanted to go, then started the car and drove away.

The distance is not far, and they arrived at the set in a short time.

"Director Wang, are you busy?" Wang Yaodong patted Wang Jing who was holding a loudspeaker.

Wang Jing, who was concentrating on what he was doing, was still startled when a hand patted his shoulder.

Turning around, he saw that it was Wang Yaodong who had swallowed the question, but he still said unhappily: "Wang Sheng, scaring people will scare people to death. This is not the first time."

"Okay, okay, okay, be careful next time. I just got it right. Where did you find that Luo Meiwei?" Wang Yaodong looked at Luo Meiwei and said.

He was a little surprised. It seemed that Wang Jing was very good at spotting newcomers!
Little did he know that Wang Jing was even more surprised when he heard his words.

He didn't tell Wang Yaodong!

How did he know?
This was a topic that Wang Jing couldn't figure out.

But if you don’t understand, you can ask!
"Wang Sheng, how do you know her name?"

Wang Yaodong was stunned for a moment, as if he really shouldn't know!

But this didn't bother him. He opened his eyes and fell asleep and lied: "I thought about having her in the first part, but there are just enough people."

After hearing this, Wang Jing realized that this reason was still relatively valid.

But he didn't know that this was also an excuse Wang Yaodong said by the way.

"How long will it take for this drama to be completed?" Wang Yaodong asked, changing the subject.

Wang Jing thought for a while and said: "It takes three to five days. Why do you have time to come to the crew today? Isn't it just to ask how long it will take to finish filming?"

Wang Yaodong shook his head and said: "I just went to the filming site of A Better Tomorrow. Li Lizhen happened to be coming over, so I brought her over to have a look."

"The relationship is not Li Lizhen, you don't even plan to come here?" Wang Jing asked in astonishment.

He originally thought he would come here to show some concern, but in the end he just wanted to give it away.

"Don't I believe you? You will have this script at your fingertips in no time." Wang Yaodong hurriedly defended again.

In fact, it cannot be regarded as an excuse. This is probably a big factor!

Wang Jing was speechless when he heard this. He could just say thank you. This was obviously an excuse.

But if it wasn't him, there was no proof.

And if people say they trust you, you should be content.

"Would you like me to take you over to introduce you?" Wang Jing asked.

He already wanted to know her because Wang Yaodong wanted to know her, so he asked.

Wang Yaodong shook his head and said: "No, I still have things to deal with. Ask her if she wants to sign a contract with our company."

When Wang Jing heard this, his eyes lit up. Was he going to put it under his nose first, and then slowly attack it?
But this kind of question must not be asked.

"Then you walk slowly and continue filming. I'll ask you when the night is over." Wang Jing replied.

Wang Yaodong nodded, turned and left.

Driving the car, we first came to Yaodong Investment.

Mainly I want to ask about movie theaters and renting space to build a movie theater in a shopping mall.

"Jian Ning, are you busy again?" Wang Yaodong said after entering the door.

What a workaholic!

Wang Yaodong thought for a moment. Ever since he came to Yaodong Investment, he has been working every time he saw him.

Huo Jianning shook his head: "It's just a small matter. It'll be done soon. You sit down first."

Wang Yaodong was already used to this and didn't say anything. After waiting for a few minutes, his came over.

"Did Mr. Wang come here to ask about the progress of the cinema?" Huo Jianning asked directly.

Because besides this, he really couldn't think of anything else.

Wang Yaodong nodded and said, "This is indeed the case. How's it going?"

"One of them wanted to sell two cinemas under his name, but the asking price was higher than the market price." Huo Jianning replied.

"Where are they?"

“Tsim Sha Tsui and Yau Ma Tei!”

"How much are the seats?"

"It's all 500!"

"I've almost bought it. Don't delay it too long, but the confidentiality regulations need to be in place. Let people know about it as late as possible." Wang Yaodong explained.

Huo Jianning also knew how important it was to keep secrets. If he was told too early that he was working in a theater chain, several theater chains would probably turn their guns and attack them.

There are already four theater chains in Xiangjiang, and no one wants to add one more.

"Okay, I will. There are still two shopping malls we are talking about. I will try to get them as soon as possible." Huo Jianning said.

"I know, thank you for your hard work." Wang Yaodong thanked him.

After all, employees who work hard like this are not easy to find.

"Is there anything else I can do?" Huo Jianning asked.

Wang Yao thought for a moment and shook his head: "No, that's all. What can I do for you?"

"I have a meeting here right now." Huo Jianning said matter-of-factly.

"Okay, I'll leave first, you go about your business." Wang Yaodong stood up and said when he heard that they still had something to do.

Huo Jianning thought for a moment and said, "Sheng Wang, do you want to have a meeting with us?"

"No, I won't disturb you." After Wang Yaodong said that, he left directly.

After leaving Yaodong Investment and returning to Yaodong Pictures, I met Cheng Xiaodong and Lin Zhengying again.

"Are you two sitting here?" Wang Yaodong asked, looking at the place not far from the door of his office.

"Wang Sheng, we two came to find you." Cheng Xiaodong said.

Wang Yaodong nodded and said, "Come in and talk!"

Wang Yaodong saw the two of them sitting here and knew that they had something to do with him, so he asked them and let them in directly.

After a few people sat down, Wang Yaodong asked directly: "Why do you have time to come and sit here with me? Aren't you supposed to be busy with the screening now?"

Wang Yaodong was a little curious. As far as he knew, it should be released today. Shouldn't there be something to do?

Why do you still have time to come here to chat with him.

"I've finished what I should be busy with. I came here this time to ask Wang Sheng if you would like to come with us to the midnight show tonight?" Cheng Xiaodong said sheepishly.

"Why do you want me to go? Is there any big shot coming?" Wang Yaodong asked puzzled.

Now he rarely participates in such activities. Li Fuhai always goes there directly.

If you want a big shot like Lei Jiekun to get over, then it’s time for him to get over.

"The main reason is that we don't know what's going on, and we want you to come over and calm us down." Lin Zhengying directly expressed his true thoughts.

"Haha, it turns out that's what happened!" Wang Yaodong said with a smile: "Don't worry, there is nothing wrong with the movie. The audience will definitely like it, so calm down." Cheng Xiaodong was still worried and said: "If Wang Sheng is fine tonight, just follow us go together?"

When Wang Yaodong heard their repeated invitations, he couldn't keep rejecting them. Besides, it was his company's film anyway, so it made sense to go and watch it.

"Okay, I'll come over before the movie starts."

The two of them breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that Wang Yaodong agreed. With him as their guide, they both felt a lot more confident.

"Then we will wait for Wang Sheng tonight. Without disturbing you, we will leave first." Cheng Xiaodong stood up and said with a smile.

"Okay, let's see what else needs to be arranged and get it done as soon as possible. The more critical the moment comes, the more we can't relax." Wang Yaodong nodded.

"Okay, let's go back and check carefully." After Cheng Xiaodong said that, he and Lin Zhengying left.

Wang Yaodong watched them leave and shook his head with a smile. Don't be so nervous even if it's your first time!
Back at his desk, he began to write the script. Now that he is free, he always thinks about writing the script and making money that should be earned.

But not long after writing, Xu Anhua was welcomed into the office again.

"Director Xu, I haven't seen you for a while. Is the movie finished?" Wang Yaodong asked with a smile when he saw Xu Anhua.

Xu Anhua nodded and said, "Sheng Wang, that's why I'm here this time. The post-production and special effects of the movie have been completed, and the English version has been made as per your request."

"Great, thank you for your hard work, Director Xu, please get the master tape as soon as possible. I will go to the United States in the next few days to seek distribution." Wang Yaodong said happily.

It was always good for this film to reach the United States. Because of Xu Anhua's attitude of striving for perfection, it was completed more than a week later than expected.

Xu Anhua was a little puzzled when he heard Wang Yaodong's words: "Wang Sheng, don't you want Jiahe to help you distribute it there?"

When Wang Yaodong heard what she said, he knew that she had always misunderstood, and explained: "No, I have no cooperation with them now, so why should they help me?"

Only then did Xu Anhua realize that he really had to go alone, which would definitely be much more difficult.

"Why not cooperate with Jiahe, so that we can directly take it to the theater?" Xu Anhua still puzzled.

Wang Yaodong did not intend to answer her question, but just said: "It is not convenient to disclose the specific reasons, please understand."

Xu Anhua paused for a moment, since she was not one of them, she seemed to have asked too much.

"Okay, I'll get the mother tape as soon as possible. I wish you a smooth journey!" Xu Anhua blessed.

"Thank you, take your time, I won't send it off." Wang Yaodong said with a smile.

Xu Anhua nodded, turned around and left without saying anything.

After she left, Wang Yaodong started writing the script again, and he didn't leave the company until evening to come to Guan Jiahui's place.

But when the car stopped, I thought that Li Zhi would be there at the midnight show, so after thinking for a while, I turned the car around and went to her side.

When Wang Yaodong entered the house rented by Lizhi, she had already prepared the meal and sat at the dining table facing him.

Wang Yaodong was a little surprised when he saw it: "How are you sure I will come?"

"Director Cheng told me that you would also go to the midnight show in the evening, so I knew you would definitely come to my place. How about it, am I smart?" Lizhi said with a crescent-shaped smile with her eyes.

Wang Yaodong also smiled. Fortunately, he turned the car around, otherwise he might not even be able to sleep on the sofa next time.

"Yes, with a mind like yours, you should go to the business world to show your talents. Being an actor is really a waste." Wang Yaodong complimented.

"Do you really think so?" Lizhi asked in disbelief.

She actually had the idea of ​​studying abroad to study business, because she felt that movies were really not suitable for her!

Seeing her like this, Wang Yaodong thumped in his heart and said, "You don't really have this idea, do you?"

Lizhi nodded without hesitation and said: "I feel that movies may not be suitable for me. I feel that there are too few roles that I can play, so I want to study business abroad for two years and then come back to do business."

Wang Yaodong didn't expect that she would choose this path in the end, but he still said: "You can go if you want, I support you."

"Really?" Lizhi said happily.

Wang Yaodong nodded and said with a smile: "Really, but you can't let anyone cheat you. I will go there often for inspections."

"I'm not that kind of person." Lizhi quickly defended anxiously.

"I know, you don't need to be so nervous. Do you really have this idea?" Wang Yaodong pretended to be surprised.

"I didn't, don't talk nonsense." Lizhi rolled her eyes at him and said.

When I saw his exaggerated expression, I knew he was just joking.

"Let's eat first, the food won't taste good when it's cold." Wang Yaodong looked at the food on the table and said.

Lizhi nodded, picked up his rice bowl and started eating.

The dinner was finished quickly, and the two of them didn't even wash the bowls, so they just lay on the sofa and cuddled in each other's arms.

"I'm going to the United States for something in a few days. If you really want to study, why don't you go shopping with me first?" Wang Yaodong and Li Zhiyi said after a while.

Li Zhi was a little surprised when he heard this: "What are you going to do over there?"

"I have a movie here that I want to get or distribute, so it may take a few days." Wang Yaodong explained.

After hearing this, Lizhi replied: "Okay, since I have nothing to do recently, I will go over with you to take a look."

"Okay, pack your luggage in the next two days. I'll take you there with me after I've taken care of it and get your passports ready."

"It's almost time, why don't we go to the cinema?" Lizhi suddenly changed the subject.

Wang Yaodong glanced at the clock on the wall and saw that there were almost two hours left. He said, "It's still so long. Don't worry, I'll hold you for a while."

"If you encounter a traffic jam, I'd better go there in advance and I'll give you a hug when I get back."

Li Zhi broke away Wang Yaodong's hand and went into the bedroom to change clothes before walking out again.

Seeing this, Wang Yaodong could only shrug his shoulders helplessly, put on his shoes, and followed her out first.

As a result, the journey was smooth and the two of them arrived more than an hour early.

Wu Zhaocan was very surprised to see him. Why was the boss the first one to arrive? The employees hadn't arrived yet?
"Wang Sheng, what are you doing?"

"Wu Sheng, I was wondering if there would be a traffic jam, so I came here a little earlier." Wang Yaodong could only explain helplessly.

Wu Zhaocan had no choice but to nod after hearing this. The roads in Xiangjiang were indeed not very spacious, and there was no way around traffic jams.

"Then you two should come in and sit for a while, there's still an hour left?" Wu Zhaocan suggested.

Wang Yaodong glanced at the eight claw machines in the lobby, all of which were surrounded by people playing. He shook his head and said, "No, Wu Sheng, just go and do your work. Let's go to the claw machines and have a look."

Wu Zhaocan paused when he heard this, but didn't say anything. He nodded and said, "Then you can take a look and call me if you need anything."

"Okay." Wang Yaodong replied.

After Wu Zhaocan heard this, he turned around and went to do other things.

He knew that the two of them wanted some time alone, so they agreed so simply without accompanying him.

"Let's go over there and have a look!" Wang Yaodong said to Li Zhi who was beside him.

"Okay, I haven't played it yet?" After saying that, he pulled Wang Yaodong and walked over quickly!
