Rebirth of Hong Kong Island, I, the rice class leader

Chapter 277 Chapter 277: Am I afraid of strong wind and waves?

The 40s were really far away from Gao Yao. His biggest feeling about this era was the hatred between the country and the family.

and the pulse of the development of the times.

As for celebrities and the like, to be honest, Gao Yao doesn't know much.

He is more familiar with butterflies. The key is that this lady is now middle-aged...

Gao's taste is not that strong.

As for Ren Jianhui and Bai Xuexian, Gao Yao really didn't know much about these two women if Bai Yue Chang Ba Ba Ba hadn't introduced them earlier.

But he knows one thing. In the future, Mandarin films and Cantonese opera films will appear simultaneously.

Let’s not talk about Mandarin films. Those big bosses from Shanghai will only concentrate on filming in Hong Kong after confirming that they cannot go back.

But when it comes to Cantonese opera films, Gao Yao also knows one thing, isn't it about putting the opera on the stage onto the big screen?
This is simple.

Isn't it about the characters in opera? Ren Jianhui and Bai Xuexian are the most popular characters at the moment. To film with them is to bring together all the pillars of Hong Kong Island.

How good is this deal?
Ren Jianhui saw that Gao Yao's attitude didn't look like he was cheating. She was surprised and happy inside, but she couldn't help but remind her, "Gao Yao, I've always known your influence."

"But every other line is like a mountain. This line is not so easy to do."

She doesn't understand that sometimes men are stubborn and childish.

Gao Yao, who has traveled through time, is willing to pay for the Hong Kong film filters he once had.

"Teacher Ren."

Gao Yao smiled and said: "This is not a problem."

"In this part of Hong Kong Island, I, Gao, have both face and money."

“As for talent,” he said lightly.

"I believe that if the team leader Ren and Jiu Miss join, there will naturally be a steady stream of talents joining us."

Gao Yao said proudly: "One thing I can assure you, Team Leader Ren, is that creative freedom is absolutely respected here."

"Also, although our Clear Water Bay studio is still under construction, in the future, it will become the first studio on Hong Kong Island."

"As for other places."

Gao Yao said: "I will arrange for people to open theaters in Southeast Asia, Nanyang and other places. After all, I have to have my own place to show the film."

Ren Jianhui asked curiously: "Gao Sheng, aren't you interested in the mainland?"

Currently, the largest market for Hong Kong Island’s Mandarin films is the Mainland…

As for Cantonese opera films, they are in the Guangfu area.

It can almost be said to be the largest market.

Gao Yao waved his hand and said vaguely: "There is still a war over there. I think the main force is in other places."

In fact, it is because Gao knows that the foundation of the film will be moved from the mainland to Hong Kong Island in the next two years.

Later, movies were not allowed to be released there.

Oh, it’s not forbidden. Promotional films are allowed to be released with restrictions.

But Mr. Gao was shooting a commercial type of film, so it was a no-brainer for him to make such a film.

Ren Jianhui thought that although Mr. Gao was a newbie in this industry, he knew how to build studios and open theaters first.

With Mr. Gao's reputation, there are very few people on Hong Kong Island who would not sell his face.

Moreover, when Mr. Gao spoke, he could not refuse.

Immediately he said: "It is naturally my honor for a high school student to speak."

"only."

Ren Jianhui heard that Gao Yao wanted to take Xiaobai and many other big-name officials with him?
After hearing this, he said: "Please give me a few days, high school student, and allow us to discuss it."

"No rush, no rush."

Gao Yao was really not in a hurry about this. He said, "Master Ren, I hope this business will be long-lasting."

"It's not like [-] Days Fresh and the like, just get a vote and leave."

"That's an insult to me being superior to someone."

In later generations, Hong Kong films often boasted that they were fast shooters, saying that they could shoot a movie in 7 days.

This is called Seven Days Fresh, which actually originated from a Cantonese opera film in the 40s...

Later, because of the flood of 7-day fresh food, theater fans complained so much that the big bosses and officials on stage couldn't bear it.

So they launched a campaign to purify Cantonese opera films!
Ren Jianhui cupped his hand and said, "High-achieving students are far-sighted."

Although she is not filming much at the moment, with Bai Xuexian here, she still has some understanding of the current film and television market.

With the revival of Cantonese opera films, there has been an atmosphere of impetuousness.

As long as the crew has negotiated with the boss, they don't even have a script, so they go to the film company to ask for money to film...

Ren Jianhui believes that this situation is extremely dangerous.

Gao Yao smiled and suddenly asked: "Master Ren, since we are making a Cantonese opera film, is there a good screenwriter?"

Although it is just to put the opera on the big screen, it does not mean that there is no need for a screenwriter. Gao Yao believes that Ren Jianhui should be very familiar with this.

As for whether Ren Jianhui and Bai Xuexian will agree?
That is not within the scope of Gao Yao's consideration at all. Although he has not officially set foot in the film and television industry, he has Gao Yao's strength and reputation.

As for the wave of arms and the sprinkling of money.

Gaosheng Entertainment must be the dominant player in Hong Kong Island.

"Kang Nian."

Ren Jianhui blurted out: "It must be Mr. Tang Kangnian."

Tang Kangnian is Tang Disheng, who studied under Jiang Feng, the Thirteenth Prince of the South China Sea!

His scripts such as "The Lonely Bird in the Setting Clouds", "The Story of the Purple Hairpin", "The Emperor's Flower", "The Story of the Red Pear in the Butterfly Shadow" and "The Story of the Reincarnation of the Red Plum" have become well-known in Hong Kong after their superb performances by Ren Jianhui, Bai Xuexian, Liang Xingbo and others. .

When it comes to Cantonese opera films, we can't go past Tang Disheng. The scripts produced by this man are of clear and elegant diction and beautiful and moving intonations. They are absolutely top-notch.

"well."

Gao Yao said: "Teacher Ren, I don't think it's better than this."

He looked at the white rice fish. In fact, most wealthy families had the habit of supporting theater troupes with their own money.

"My opinion is for class teacher Ren's reference."

"I paid for the theater troupe hosted by my predecessor. From now on, this theater troupe will perform at the Xiayue Grand Stage."

As soon as these words came out, Baifanyu and Ren Jianhui were shocked.

Ren Jianhui quipped: "This...this..."

Not to mention, she was really moved.

After the Anti-Japanese War, Ren Jianhui led the "New Voice Theater Company" to Hong Kong Island to perform performances, and it became a hit. However, the members of the troupe were attracted by other theater companies one after another, and the "New Voice Theater Company" was disbanded.

At that time, Ren Jianhui had no choice but to bite the bullet and start the class on his own.

If you are not at home, you do not know that diesel, rice, oil, and salt are expensive.

The expenses of dozens of people are really not a small matter, and Ren Jianhui has been walking on thin ice.

If Mr. Gao is willing to do this big water pipe, then he can devote his main energy to performing, and maybe his skills can be improved to a higher level.

Gao Yao smiled and said, "A little insight."

"Okay."

Baifanyu felt happy this time. He thought that his uncle was his uncle, and he had great skill in riding horses.

He slapped his thigh, and then shouted loudly: "Hello, you traitor, my virtuous son-in-law has plenty of money and status."

"With him here, no one dares to bully you. But you and Miss Jiu can concentrate on praising you, isn't it good?"

At present, the influence of these big boss officials has not yet reached its peak.

In later generations, Xin Ma Shizeng was able to mediate He Xin's disputes in Haojiang.

Now?That's too much missing.

Therefore, even people of Ren Jianhui and Bai Xuexian's level will inevitably be harassed by power or money.

Taishan finally got a divine assist.

Gao Yao said: "I also had an idea. Leader Ren can think about it slowly after he returns."

He then said: "Actually, Class Leader Ren can think about it."

"After all, you are an artist, not a businessman."

"I think what class leader Yan should do is devote most of his energy to promoting Cantonese opera."

"This is the true master of art."

"As for trivial matters, why not leave them to the common people?"

Ren Jianhui stood up and bowed: "Gaosheng, I understand."

She was so excited that it was hard to describe. This was the first time in a long time that someone spoke from the bottom of her heart.

Yam Jianhui just wants to carry forward Cantonese opera and become a great generation.

"This is a serious matter, please allow me to talk to the people on stage when I get back."

Ren Jianhui said frankly: "Actually, I don't have any objections, but the guys believe in me and only eat with me. I have to give them an explanation."

Without such loyalty, how could a prostitute support such a large stall?

"Good son-in-law!"

Ren Jianhui was shocked a bit, so he left with some excuses after having a few drinks.

Baifanyu couldn't stand it anymore, and his two eyebrows that were about to fly had betrayed him deeply.

"My wonderful son-in-law."

Bai Yuechang couldn't bear this disgusting feeling: "Dad, what on earth do you want to say?"

Baifanyu wondered if he had revealed himself too obviously?He quickly restrained himself, and then said: "The reputation of a good traitor in Liangjiang is not so easy to be accepted."

Gao Yao just asked: "Taishan, do you want to contribute a little bit?"

Baifanyu Baba nodded: "If you need people, you need money..."

He gritted his teeth and said, "I have money."

Huh?
Bai Yuechang opened her eyes and looked at her father. How could he still have money?Small vault?
Gao Yao said with a gentle smile: "I think there is a high probability that Ren will agree. When the time comes, Taishan will be the permanent honorary leader of the Xiayue Troupe."

"a ha ha ha."

The white rice fish couldn't control the joy in his heart. He was just chasing a drama, but ended up chasing the entire theater troupe under his name?

This feeling is indescribable.

What kind of young man can compare to a young man who only knows how to throw money and flower baskets to make singing girls smile?

Baifanyu immediately geared up and said, "My dear son-in-law, it seems that I will have to be in charge here from now on."

The Kowloon Walled City is a place for big fishermen like Baifanyu to make money, but it is not a place for enjoyment.

It's just that the situation outside is treacherous and full of crises.

For their own safety, white rice fish rarely go outside.

But this was Lee Garden Hill, his uncle's territory, so he couldn't be more worried.

Moreover, there is a show to watch, and it is my own theater troupe, so how can he not come?

Gao Yao smiled and said: "With Taishan to share my worries, my son-in-law will feel much more relaxed." "Then it's settled."

"As for."

Gao Yao changed the subject: "The money to buy the theater troupe..."

Baifanyu said without hesitation: "I'll do it."

"What a big deal."

He took care of everything: "You Taishan, I don't have any hobbies in my life, I just listen to some songs."

"I'll cover all the remaining expenses."

OK!

When Bai Yuechang saw this situation, she knew that her father had hidden a lot of money behind her back. Maybe he had gone to Haojiang to make a living again these days.

There was murderous intent in Phoenix's eyes at that moment.

Baifanyu's intuition was wrong, he didn't dare to look at his precious daughter, but quickly called Gao Yao,

"Xian son-in-law, aren't you going to Haojiang?"

"It's very windy and unsafe at night. It's better to go now and try to come back in the evening."

The killing intent disappeared.

Bai Yuechang also said quickly: "Hubby, if you really want to go, you'd better go during the day."

"Dad, he has experience, right, Daddy?"

"Ah ha ha."

Can't take this.

Baifanyu winked at Gao Yao: "A good son-in-law."

Bai Yuechang didn't really want these two men to go to Haojiang, but she couldn't stop them, so she urged: "Then it's better to go early."

"The sea is rough, please pay attention to safety."

"Dad, please take it easy."

"Crazy line."

Baifanyu said in a lively manner: "Will your father and I be afraid of strong winds and waves?"

"Forgot how my dad got ahead?"

"The bigger the wind and the waves, the more expensive the fish!"

Gao Yao smiled as he watched the father and daughter bickering, and then he said, "That's what my father-in-law said."

"Yue Chang, I'll be back soon."

"I won't necessarily come back in the evening. You and Axia don't have to wait for me."

"Oh."

Bai Yuechang pouted: "I have to go to Kowloon later, so I won't see you off."

Bai Fanyu was most afraid of Bai Yuechang seeing her off, but now that she was not going, he felt relieved: "Let's go, let's go."

He grabbed Gao Yao's hand and hurriedly walked out, saying as he walked: "What a good son-in-law."

"Can this troupe be called Bai Laoda Troupe?"

"I have face."

The corner of Gao Yao's mouth twitched, you have a bad reputation.

Even if Ren Jianhui's theater company could be bought, the main reason would definitely not be money.

"Taishan, I definitely support you."

Gao Yao said righteously: "It's definitely not a problem."

Baifanyu was overjoyed: "What a good son-in-law."

"If Yue Chang agrees."

"Depend on!"

Baifanyu rolled his eyes angrily: "My family is unlucky, my family is unlucky."

By the time the group arrived at Yulong Shipyard, the hydrofoil had already been lowered into the water.

A group of boatmen are loading cargo.

Take a look, you'll find cinders, gold, western medicine and more.

Hey, Taishan never misses any opportunity to make money.

The white rice fish was so proud that he put his hands on his hips and raised his chest and belly, looking down at the world.
"Young man, learn."

“To make money, you must never miss any opportunity.”

Not missing any opportunity is that the cabin is crowded.

Gao Yao didn't mind this, he just gave Baifanyu a thumbs up: "Taishan, awesome."

Baifanyu obviously does not need to suffer this kind of suffering, but he still takes the lead every time.

Gao Yao thought to himself, no wonder his father-in-law was able to hold the Kowloon Walled City for more than ten years. It was really remarkable.

"Hahaha."

Baifanyu laughed, and he said with great dignity: "Do you think I'm the cover-up?"

"You're kidding, I'm just a freeloader!"

As he spoke, there was a boom, and the hydrofoil began to surge wildly.

Everyone swayed slightly, and some couldn't help but hold on to the armrests of their seats.

When a hydrofoil boat moves, the hydrofoils generate upward lift like the wings of an airplane, gradually lifting the hull out of the water.

It's like stepping on a large water ski.

The hull is no longer subject to water resistance, and its speed is naturally much higher than that of ordinary ships.

It's really like an arrow leaving the string!

Bai Fanyu said with a smile: "Xian son-in-law, is this your first time sitting down?"

Gao Yao nodded: "Yes, Taishan."

This was really his first time riding this hydrofoil.

From the current point of view, the speed of this ship is indeed very fast, and the noise is not that loud.

It is indeed feasible to carry people.

Baifanyu said proudly: "There is always a first time for everything."

"This boat is great."

"If you can pull goods and people, the most important thing is to run fast!"

Bai Fanyu said: "I'm telling you, this business will definitely not be a loss."

Speaking of this, Baifanyu was a little impressed by Gao Yao: "How did your kid's brain grow?"

He clicked his tongue: "You just bought it and you want to imitate it?"

"Xiao Li told me that it's not a big problem."

This Xiao Li refers to Li Mingzhi of Yulong Shipyard.

Gao Yao said with a smile: "With this condition, even if the counterfeiting is not successful, the loss will not be big."

"Makes sense."

Baifanyu nodded frequently: "That means you have a lot of money and are not afraid of losing money. Otherwise, how can ordinary people be willing to do so?"

"Come on."

Of course, Baifanyu would not go alone to Haojiang. There would be at least a few people or as many as a dozen people. There would always be someone guarding him.

Following his order, someone took out a wooden box from a corner and opened it.

3 Bobosha submachine guns, 20-shot shell gun, grenades...

"My dear son-in-law, Haojiang is a place as chaotic as Hong Kong Island."

"Even a guy like Fu Laorong, who has both black and white power, can be kidnapped."

Baifanyu loves to take risks, but that doesn't mean he is willing to risk his own life, so he always pays attention to safety.

"But don't worry."

He took care of everything: "As long as I'm here, nothing will happen to you."

Gao Yao smiled: "Thank you Taishan."

In fact, his space is equipped with explosives, grenades, and firearms...

After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, because the Australian government did not search for traitors, let alone escort them to the mainland government for processing, the traitor lackeys and gangsters of all sizes fled to Haojiang.

These people flooded the Haojiang River, causing social security to be quite chaotic and dangerous.

"You're kidding, we're all on our own, if I don't take care of you, who will I take care of?"

Baifanyu pulled out a flower-mouthed poker from his lower back and threw it to Gao Yao: "Can you play?"

"Take self-defense."

"Thank you Tarzan."

The flower-mouthed roller is a Browning. Gao Yao took it and looked at it. Oh, it has an ivory handle. It seems to be a common item in Mount Tai.

"I said you people."

Baifanyu pointed at the mute and several other high-ranking officials approaching: "Why don't you show some color? Get a gun."

The mute opened his clothes, and a 20-shot shell gun was inserted into the left and right sides of his waist.

Gao Yao said modestly: "Taishan, my son-in-law is more afraid of death, so he has been prepared in advance."

In fact, in the past, Mr. Gao did not carry a gun at close range.

However, as his career grew bigger and bigger, he provoked more and more enemies, and the mute and others consciously carried guns with them.

"Depend on."

Bai Fanyu originally wanted to show off, but the punch missed directly, not to mention how uncomfortable it was.

"Go, go, go."

Baifanyu said angrily: "I really wasted my efforts."

Gao Yao smiled apologetically: "Taishan, it's my son-in-law's fault. It's all my fault that I didn't make it clear before."

"Forget it."

Baifanyu said: "I should have thought of it earlier."

"After all, your men are so powerful, so what's the point of having a few guns?"

It's really easy to get guns in Hong Kong Island. There used to be special gun shops here. As long as you have money, there are no taboos.

Not to mention that after the war, there is a large amount of military supplies that need to be disposed of, including guns.

If it weren't for this, how could Li Ahji start shaking so quickly?

It is purely a matter of time, location and people.
