Hollywood Lover

It was not until May 21, 2002 that Wu Yusen left his footprints and handprints in front of the Chinese Theater. broke this record.

After discovering this fact, Zhang Dongcheng's favorable impression of this theater suddenly became much less.

Although Dongsheng Cinema is a movie theater that has just been reorganized and reopened, at least it really belongs to Zhang Dongcheng.

"Adaman, let's start contacting, our premiere will be held at Dongsheng Cinema!" Zhang Dongcheng made a final decision.

"Don't worry, I have already informed Keanu and the others in Australia, and they will come back to attend the premiere before the screening!" Adaman laughed triumphantly.

He finally thought of Zhang Dongcheng's front on one thing.

For a long time, as Zhang Dongcheng's good friend, Adaman has been under a lot of pressure. Although the two are close friends, Adaman is always like a little brother running errands, never helping Zhang Dongcheng with anything, just helping him That's all.

This time, there was finally one thing to consider in front of Zhang Dongcheng, which made Adaman feel much more at ease.

Zhang Dongcheng didn't know what his bad friend was thinking. Now that Adaman has prepared everything, he has nothing to worry about. After pondering for a while, Zhang Dongcheng said: "Adaman, since you have already started the preparations, I will leave it to you to handle the guests at the premiere. Remember, invite more reporters. It is best to make good friends with us." media!"

After Adaman agreed, the two got together and discussed the process of holding the premiere. Afterwards, Adaman began to get busy for the premiere.

Naturally, Zhang Dongcheng will not be idle. His purpose of this dark war is to help Hong Kong movies that are already in decline. Since he wants to have a premiere, he simply invites Xiang Huaqiang and screenwriter You Naihai. Du Qifeng By the way, I also invited you over, so I might as well have a big one.

After thinking about all this, Zhang Dongcheng immediately started calling Xiang Huaqiang.

The phone rang for less than ten seconds, and Xiang Huaqiang's bold voice came from the receiver. "Haha... Mr. Zhang. It's really unexpected that you, a busy person, would call me. I'm really flattered!"

"Mr. Xiang was joking!" Zhang Dongcheng smiled and said, "I'm bothering you this time because I want to trouble you about something!"

"Don't bother! Don't bother! It's my honor to help Mr. Zhang!" Xiang Huaqiang has a deep understanding of the truth that people speak human words, and hell talk nonsense. Just one sentence shortened the relationship with Zhang Dongcheng.

"My American version of Dark War has been produced. It is planned to be released on July 10! I hope that Mr. Xiang will be able to come to the premiere ceremony!" Zhang Dongcheng invited Xiang Huaqiang to attend the premiere ceremony. The more important reason is that I want to use his line to open up the issue of Dongcheng Films' theaters in Asia.

As Dongcheng Pictures grows stronger and stronger, things that are released in North America can be completely self-sufficient. But overseas releases have always been the company's weak point.

Xiang Huaqiang has connections in both black and white, so he is a good partner for cooperation.

Xiang Huaqiang is not a brainless person. To be able to gain a great reputation in such a complicated environment as the underworld, his brain is definitely much better than many people. The moment Zhang Dongcheng proposed the invitation, Xiang Huaqiang thought a lot.

"It's my honor to be able to participate in the premiere of Mr. Zhang's movie. Then let's make it clear that I will definitely go to the United States on July 10th! I will trouble Mr. Zhang then!" Xiang Huaqiang said politely.

After exchanging pleasantries with Zhang Dongcheng and hanging up the phone, Xiang Huaqiang frowned.

"What's the matter? Brother Ten, is that Zhang called? What did he say?" Xiang Huasheng wore a pair of eyes and looked polite, but the moment he opened his mouth, he revealed his identity as a member of the underworld.

Xiang Huaqiang's face was serious, and he said angrily: "We have been cleansed now, remember, don't always be so gangster, now Hong Kong belongs to the mainland, we have to behave with our tails between our legs..."

Before Xiang Huaqiang finished speaking, Xiang Huasheng immediately interrupted, admitting his mistake: "Okay, brother ten, I understand. Don't teach me a lesson, let me tell me what that surnamed Zhang said first!"

Although he is not young anymore, in front of Xiang Huaqiang, Xiang Huasheng still behaves like a young and energetic child.

"He didn't say anything, he just invited me to the premiere of the American version of Dark War." Xiang Huaqiang frowned, and said with a bit of doubt on his face: "But I always feel that he seems to have something else. What do you want to talk to me about?"

"He doesn't want to investigate the leak of our script, does he?" Hearing what Xiang Huaqiang said, Xiang Huasheng immediately thought of the bad side.

"No!" Xiang Huaqiang was very confident about this. He had already apologized to Zhang Dongcheng on this matter before. And according to his contact with Zhang Dongcheng, Zhang Dongcheng is not a small-hearted person, otherwise, he would not be able to make such an achievement.

Character determines destiny. It is impossible for a person who does not keep his word and cares about every detail to have such a large number of followers.

Xiang Huaqiang may not know much about other people, but he knows Yuan Heping very well, and he can make Yuan Heping stay in Dongcheng Pictures with all his heart, which shows the charm of Zhang Dongcheng's personality.

If he really felt that he had tricked him, he should have shown it long ago. There is no reason to make so many detours. After all, Zhang Dongcheng's current forces don't need to be afraid of them at all.

"Although I don't have much contact with Zhang Dongcheng, I'm confident that I can still see some of his temper." Xiang Huaqiang showed a reminiscing expression, and said: "This guy Zhang Dongcheng can go from penniless to complete in just a few years. With such an achievement now, it doesn’t make sense why he cares about something, I think he specially asked me to attend the premiere ceremony, there must be other things. But his tone is very tight, and he didn’t reveal what it was at all.”

Looking at Xiang Huaqiang's distressed look, Xiang Huasheng said indifferently: "What's so embarrassing about this, won't everything be clear when I see that guy in a few days?"

Although what Xiang Huasheng said was very reasonable, but knowing yourself and the enemy in everything is the only way to win a hundred battles, but Xiang Huaqiang was still thinking about Zhang Dongcheng's deep meaning.

On the other side, after Zhang Dongcheng in Los Angeles hung up the phone with Xiang Huaqiang, he contacted Du Qifeng and others again and invited them to attend the premiere of Dark War.

As July 10th approached, people invited by Zhang Dongcheng began to rush to Los Angeles. Even Wu Yusen, who was filming The Spy Shadow, put down his work and came to participate in the premiere of the secret war with Jackie Chan. It's screening.

On the morning of July 10th, the sun was shining brightly, and Zhang Dongcheng successfully picked up Brother Xiang Huaqiang at Los Angeles International Airport.

This time, besides Xiang Huasheng's younger brother, Xiang Huaqiang was accompanied by a few people that Zhang Dongcheng didn't know, but judging from the angry looks on these guys' faces, they should be Xiang Huaqiang's bodyguards.

After all, Xiang Huaqiang was a gangster before and had many enemies, so how could he be careless when going out?

"Mr. Zhang, we finally meet again!" Xiang Huaqiang, who was walking from the airport in the distance, spotted Zhang Dongcheng and raised his hand to greet him.

Zhang Dongcheng greeted him quickly with an enthusiastic face. "Mr. Xiang, welcome!"

After shaking hands with Xiang Huaqiang, Zhang Dongcheng joked, "The last time I went to Hong Kong, Mr. Xiang was the host. This time it's my turn!"

Xiang Huaqiang also smiled slightly, nodded and said, "Then I'll take it at my own convenience, and everything will be arranged by Mr. Zhang!"

"Please!" Zhang Dongcheng turned sideways and waved at the car that came to take the opportunity.

After everyone got into the car, Zhang Dongcheng and Xiang Huaqiang chatted endlessly. The content is nothing more than flattering each other, or expressing my apology to Huaqiang for the leak of the script last time.

After all, if it was more serious, Xiang Huaqiang would have cheated Zhang Dongcheng. In the final analysis, Dark War is a stepping stone work to Hollywood produced by Zhang Dongcheng for Hong Kong under the sincere invitation of Xiang Huaqiang.

But now everything is going well with Zhang Dongcheng, but there is a problem with Hong Kong, which almost made Zhang Dongcheng's investment go to waste. Zhang Dongcheng can forgive them, but this does not mean that Xiang Huaqiang is just an empty-mouthed apology. It's over.

When I went to Hong Kong before, Xiang Huaqiang, who was the host, invited Zhang Dongcheng to have a talk at the hotel. The Chinese are most particular about courtesy and reciprocity. Zhang Dongcheng also set up a banquet at the hotel to welcome Xiang Huaqiang.

Because this evening is the premiere of Dark War, the restaurant where Zhang Dongcheng greets Xiang Huaqiang is on Hollywood Boulevard. And this place can be regarded as a well-known hotel.

Pan Jinlian Restaurant! Anyone who knows something about Chinese culture should know the name Pan Jinlian.

After arriving at the downstairs of Pan Jinlian Restaurant, looking at the huge banner with white characters on a red background, the people behind Xiang Huaqiang couldn't help being a little dazed.

Judging from the shape of "Pan Jinlian Restaurant", the Song Dynasty font is not standardized, not symmetrical, and a bit skewed, obviously not written by Chinese. After all, there is no Chinese who would name his restaurant such a name.

However, Xiang Huaqiang seemed to know this place, and did not show surprise or surprise. Naturally, he followed Zhang Dongcheng and walked towards the restaurant.

After arriving in the box that had been booked long ago, I had three rounds of wine and five flavors of food. Xiang Huaqiang and Zhang Dongcheng, who had been praising each other for a long time, finally brought the topic to serious matters.

"Mr. Xiang, besides participating in the premiere of Dark War, I invite you to come to the United States this time. More importantly, I hope Dongcheng Films can reach a cooperation with China Star." Zhang Dongcheng finally started to talk about cooperation with Xiang Huaqiang openly and honestly.

"It is also my long-cherished wish to cooperate with Mr. Zhang!" Xiang Huaqiang praised Zhang Dongcheng calmly, and then asked, "I don't know how Mr. Zhang hopes to cooperate?"
