Chapter 272: Qiu Gangao strikes again, Hong Kong Island Police Force is stunned
Inside the office.
"Brother Wen! This gentleman is looking for you."
Zhou Runfa spoke directly to Chen Wen.
Following my gaze, the person in front of me is the classic action director of Hong Kong kung fu films, Sammo Hung.
At that time, Sammo Hung was the head of Bow Harvest Film Company.
And Golden Harvest Films is a film production company invested by Golden Harvest.
In other words, every movie shot and released by Sammo Hung during this period needs to be shown in Golden Harvest's theaters.
Of course, at that time, Golden Harvest and Shaw Brothers were jointly releasing the film to compete with the New Hung Hsing Cinema Line.
In short, Hong Jinbao is on the opponent's side.
It is for this reason that Chen Wen is very curious as to why Sammo Hung would appear at this time.
"Mr. Chen, I'm Hong Jinbao from Baohe Films."
"It's a bit impolite of me to come to your house like this today. I've also heard about what happened at Cinema City. I'm really sorry..."
I heard Zhou Runfa call me Brother Wen.
Hong Jinbao immediately turned around and spoke these polite words directly to Chen Wen in front of him.
I have to say that Sammo Hung is also a straightforward person. He went straight to the point and mentioned the affairs of Cinema City.
That’s right! This time, Golden Harvest went directly to Cinema City to recruit talent.
Even Cinema City’s previous signature work “Best Partner” was brought along.
Even Sammo Hung, the film producer of Golden Harvest, felt a little embarrassed after watching it.
After all, he really couldn't accept this kind of shady business war.
The most important thing is that at that time, the two bosses of Golden Harvest, Zou Wenhuai and He Kuanchang, seemed to be drugged and just kept imitating and shooting sequels all day long.
This has also caused certain bottlenecks in the film production of the film company where Sammo Hung currently works.
After all, most of the money was invested in other movies, so Sammo Hung's Bowa Films would naturally be affected to a certain extent.
There is no way, since Bowa Film Company relies on Golden Harvest’s investment!
"There's nothing to apologize for. We are all adults and we all have our own choices. I respect everyone's choice."
"Also, Cinema City had already completely disbanded long before you came in. There is no Cinema City in Hong Kong anymore!"
Chen Wen said directly without any hurry.
However, Chen Wen's words made Hong Jinbao and Cheng Long next to him stunned instantly!
You know, yesterday's Cinema City still had a huge impact on the entire Hong Kong Island's movie box office, and it even made Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest unite for the first time to fight against this opponent.
But today, just because of the departure of Wong Pak Ming and others, Golden Harvest declared bankruptcy?
Could it be that Chen Wen has no intention of making a movie at all?
For a moment, even Hong Jinbao, who wanted to seek help from Chen Wen, didn't know how to start.
"By the way, you guys probably came to me today not just for the Cinema City matter, right?"
The two were not given much time to think.
Chen Wen continued to ask directly.
That's right! When speaking, Chen Wen noticed that the person standing next to Hong Jinbao was Cheng Long, the famous winner of the Lifetime Achievement Award.
"There is indeed something I want to trouble you with, Mr. Chen."
"My junior fellow had a disagreement with Boss Zou over a contract issue before, and he went to Hollywood some time ago but didn't make a name for himself."
"I originally wanted to recommend him to Cinema City, but I didn't expect to encounter something like this."
Hong Jinbao truthfully told Chen Wen all the reasons for his coming here.
Although Cinema City no longer existed at that time, Chen Wen's new Hung Hing Film Production Company was still a concern for Golden Harvest and Shaw Brothers.
In this case, even if there is no way to get Jackie Chan to enter Cinema City, it would be nice to have him enter New Hongxing.
"Yes. If I remember correctly, Zeng Zhiwei from Cinema City Film Company was also recommended by Mr. Hong, right?"
"Although Cinema City has now disbanded, I still believe in Mr. Hong's vision."
"I have accepted this junior fellow apprentice of Mr. Hong. As for which film company he will be placed in, Mr. Hong does not need to make any arrangements. I know the plan. In short, Mr. Feng, just remember that I will not treat him unfairly."
Chen Wen spoke directly to Hong Jinbao and Cheng Long in front of him with a smile on his face.
Almost at the same time.
The actions of Qiu Gangao and others have begun to show results.
That's right! At that time, the Huo family had already received a blackmail call from Qiu Gangao and others.
The basic content of the call was to bring 10 billion Hong Kong dollars to meet at a designated location, and specifically asked Deputy Commissioner of Police Li Wenbin's subordinate, Kwong Chi-lapin, to deliver the ransom.
For a moment, the police station in Hong Kong Island fell into panic again.
"Other kidnappers are after money, but these guys asked you to pay the ransom. Is there something fishy going on?"
Li Wenbin put his hands on his hips and paced back and forth in the office.
That’s right! It’s not uncommon for kidnappers to demand ransom, but it’s unprecedented for kidnappers to specifically ask the police to pay the ransom.
Even Li Wenbin, deputy director of the operations department who was always at the forefront, had a look of worry on his face.
"Don't worry, Sir Li. No matter what the other party's purpose is, I will go there in person."
"I will make a complete plan before taking action. No matter what means I use, I will bring these people to justice."
Kuang Zhili made this assurance directly to Li Wenbin in front of him.
That's right! The reason why he is so confident is not groundless.
Instead, the kidnappers had already specified the location for payment when they made the call.
In other words, these policemen had plenty of time to make arrangements in advance.
In another office.
This is the office of Liu Jiehui, Deputy Commissioner of Police, who is at the same level as Li Wenbin.
"One moment it's Hong Kong Island, the next moment it's Macao."
"What on earth are these kidnappers doing here?"
"Where on earth does he get the confidence to play around with both Hong Kong Island and Macau?"
Looking at the messages in front of him, Liu Jiehui also followed suit and made guesses.
There is no doubt that anyone can imagine that the previous kidnapping cases in Hong Kong were definitely not just done by a few gangsters.
In addition, this time the kidnapping case directly touched upon Haojiang.
The identity of the person behind this must be extraordinary!
The most important thing is that a kidnapping case started in Macau and ended up in Hong Kong Island, and the Hong Kong Island police were asked to suddenly pay a ransom.
This is simply too outrageous!
"If I remember correctly, Mr. Zhang once said that he suspected that the same person was behind these vicious cases."
"Thinking along these lines, whoever benefits the most will be the winner!"
"There are so many vicious cases in Hong Kong Island that no clues have been found. It is better to look at Macao. After all, this is the first time they have taken action in Macao. According to their character of not giving up until they achieve their goal, they must have reached some kind of cooperation at this time."
Hong Kong Island Police Station spokesperson Leung Tsz-wai continued to speak steadily, and her words hit the nail on the head.
Liu Jiehui was also completely led by Liang Ziwei's ideas.
He subconsciously asked: "What do you mean..."
