The Most Powerful Tycoon Reborn In Xiangjiang Chapter 157

  Chapter 157 The stepping stone to enter Hollywood (7K chapters, please subscribe~)

  People are in good spirits on happy occasions.

  In ancient times, there were kings who did not go to court early, but now Chu Huan does not go out!

   In the next few days, Chu Huan lived in Miao Kexiu's apartment, the bedroom, living room, kitchen, bathroom, and even the storage room. Chu Huan's foot hair was left in these places.

  Girls who practice martial arts are just different.

  The flexibility of their bodies allowed Chu Huan to unlock many poses that he had only heard of but never tried before.

   The ups and downs outside, to Chu Huan, it seems that they don't exist anymore.

  If Li Xiaolong hadn't called Miao Kexiu's apartment today, Chu Huan would have planned to unlock another pose today.

  Called Lin Feng and asked him to come pick him up.

  Afterwards, Chu Huan and Miao Kexiu took a car to Li Xiaolong's new residence, the villa on Cumberland Road, Kowloon Tong.

  This villa, looking from the outside to the inside, actually couldn't catch Chu Huan's eyes at all. Compared with the mansions in other places in Xiangjiang, such as Peak Road and Repulse Bay, it was a gray two-story building.

  Led by the housekeeper, Chu Huan and Miao Kexiu came to the living room, where they met Li Xiaolong's family, Yuan Hua and others.

  Seeing Chu Huan approaching, Li Xiaolong immediately showed a big smile, and then saw Chu Huan holding Miao Kexiu's hand without avoiding suspicion, and there was a tinge of relief in his joyful expression.

   "Haha, Ah Huan, you can do it. A "Dragon and Tiger Fight" is expected to break a million at the box office, and your black and white image can be regarded as a firm foothold in Xiangjiang!"

  Li Xiaolong did not ask about Chu Huan and Miao Kexiu, but congratulated Chu Huan Film Company for its movie "Dragon and Tiger Fight" which won a good box office.

  Chu Huan said with a smile: "If others say that, I will take it as a compliment, but Brother Long, if you say that, then you are just looking at my joke."

The first film "Dragon and Tiger Fighting" in black and white images also had a box office of over one million, but Li Xiaolong's first film after returning to Xiangjiang "Big Brother Tangshan" directly broke Xiangjiang's box office record and won 3.2 million at the box office , the difference is three times in the middle.

  Li Xiaolong smiled proudly: "No way, who let my personal charm show up here."

While talking, they sat down. Chu Huan put the gift in his hand on the coffee table, and said with a smile, "This is a congratulatory gift for Brother Long. The first is to congratulate you on moving to your new home, and the second is to congratulate you on being selected Inducted into the Black Belt Hall of Fame!"

   Just this year, Li Xiaolong was inducted into the "Black Belt" Hall of Fame. This is the first Chinese martial artist to be selected. In the following years, when "Black Belt" selects world martial artists, Li Xiaolong will be selected and top the list.

This year marks the 10th anniversary of the founding of "Black Belt", the first selection of the "World's Seven Martial Arts Masters", Li Xiaolong ranked first, followed by American Filipino master Dan Yiyun, who is proficient in karate, judo, and aikido , Kendo, and at the same time, he is Li Xiaolong's assistant teacher in the North American martial arts school.

   The third place is Japanese karate master Takenari Yamaguchi.

  The fourth is also the Japanese aikido master Yamada Yoshimitsu, and he is also the chairman of the North American Aikido Association.

   The fifth place is still the Japanese Sone Taizan, who is well-known in the field of Jiu-Jitsu.

  The sixth North American karate athlete Joseph Heath.

  The seventh place is judo athlete Du Gelin.

If you want to say how authoritative the selection of "Black Belt" is, you are joking. It can be seen from the personnel that the people selected by this magazine, except Li Xiaolong, are either from Japan or North America. This is also because The person who founded the "Black Belt" magazine was Mito Uehara, a Japanese-American.

   At the beginning of the magazine's establishment, the most introduced martial arts were karate, aikido, and taekwondo.

   But Li Xiaolong was able to top the list in this selection, which shows his reputation in the martial arts world.

  Li Xiaolong smiled reservedly: "It's just that the magazine is entertaining itself, and it's just for nothing to make people laugh."

   After chatting for a while, Chu Huan continued to ask Li Xiaolong: "You came back this time to move to a new house, right?"

  Li Xiaolong nodded and said: "That's right, it just so happens that the filming of "The Way of the Dragon" needs to rest for a few days, so I will take advantage of this time to make some arrangements."

  The movie "The Way of the Dragon" Li Xiaolong is no longer satisfied with filming in Xiangjiang, but has moved to Italy to shoot on-site.

   "Last night I went to the theater to watch the movie "Dragon and Tiger Fighting". San Mao and Lou Zai performed pretty well, but why do I feel that their kung fu is a bit juggling?"

  This time it was Li Xiaolong who asked Chu Huan instead.

  Chu Huan said indifferently: "In Xiangjiang, which Kung Fu movie with hard bridge and hard horse can compare with your movie Long Ge, it is better to find another way than to hit a stone with an egg."

  Li Xiaolong nodded and said: "It is indeed so."

  Then Li Xiaolong asked seemingly dissatisfied: "But why did you change Yuanlou's name to Cheng Long?"

  Chu Huan said without hesitation: "Pengci, I just want Cheng Long to become a superstar like you in the future."

  Li Xiaolong saw Chu Huan's straightforwardness, smiled helplessly, and said, "You are really direct, and you don't know how to be subtle."

  Chu Huan said with a smile: "There's nothing to hide about it. Do you want to do business? As long as you can make money, there is nothing to be ashamed of!"

  Li Xiaolong laughed. In fact, Li Xiaolong didn't care about Yuanlou's name change to Cheng Long, and was even a little happy. This shows Li Xiaolong's prestige in Xiangjiang.

   "Do you still remember what we said before?" Li Xiaolong suddenly asked Chu Huan.

  Chu Huan said with a smile: "Brother Long, don't worry, I promise to keep the theaters in January next year for you, and then Shanhai Cinemas will release your "Way of the Dragon" across the board."

  The release date of "Way of the Dragon" hasn't been set yet, but according to the filming progress of the film and the importance Golden Harvest attaches to the film, there are already rumors that the film will be screened in Hong Kong during New Year's Day.

  Although Xiangjiang does not have the concept of a schedule at this time, everyone still knows when a movie will be released that will be more powerful for the box office.

  Li Xiaolong laughed and said, "I won't say thank you to you."

   "Just say thank you and we'll see you!" Chu Huan also laughed loudly.

   "But Brother Long, I heard that Mr. Zou intends to release this movie globally?" Chu Huan asked Li Xiaolong.

  The smile on Li Xiaolong's face became more and more obvious: "I do have this idea, and now Mr. Zou and I are working on this matter."

  Looking at Li Xiaolong's smile, Chu Huan still shook his head silently in his heart. The movie "Way of the Dragon" finally completed its global release, but it actually took a very long time.

  In Xiangjiang, this movie was released during the New Year's Day of 1973, but in other places, especially North America, it will not be released until 1974.

   But I have to admit that this movie is the first movie that officially introduced Li Xiaolong to the world. According to statistics from later generations, this movie has achieved a global box office of nearly 100 million US dollars.

   And his next movie "Enter the Dragon" is even more exaggerated, with a global box office of 230 million US dollars.

   Many of these countries have been re-released many times.

  Wherever it went, it aroused strong repercussions.

  For example, when this movie was released in Poland, the number of viewers reached 17.26 million, ranking second in the history of Polish foreign language films, surpassing the mainland movie "Shaolin Temple"!

  After being screened many times in Japan, the cumulative box office reached 5.06 billion yen. This cumulative box office will not be surpassed until 2000 by Wu Baige's "Red Cliff".

   In addition, when this movie was released in North America, it also won a box office of 23 million US dollars, ranking tenth on the box office list that year!

   "I believe that when this movie is released in North America, it will definitely cause a huge sensation. By then, Brother Long, you will be able to come back and return the king!"

   Chu Huan laughed.

  When Li Xiaolong was in North America, he had already participated in the filming of Hollywood movies. Everyone knows that "The Green Hornet".

  Later Jay Chou also participated in the remake of this movie!

  However, because of Li Xiaolong's complexion, he was not taken seriously in Hollywood, so he decided to return to Xiangjiang to start over in a fit of anger.

   After listening to Li Xiaolong, he put away his smile and said seriously: "I must return to Hollywood."

  Looking at Li Xiaolong's appearance, Chu Huan smiled and said, “It's not to prove how great I am, but to tell them that I must get back what I lost!”

   What do you get back?

  Dignity and respect!

  Li Xiaolong understood what Chu Huan meant, and immediately smiled and said, "That's right, that's what it means."

  The two laughed at the same time.

  Chu Huan stated his ultimate goal: "Brother Long, have you ever thought about the two of us working together?"

  Come to this era and choose to start his own film company. If he doesn't cooperate with a legendary figure like Li Xiaolong once, it must be a big regret for Chu Huan.

Li Xiaolong showed a troubled expression: "Ah Huan, although you and I have not known each other for long, our friendship is not shallow. To be honest, I really want to cooperate with you, but there are some things that Golden Harvest treats me well. If we cooperate, how will the world think of me? Will they say that I, Li Xiaolong, are ungrateful?"

Chu Huan laughed and said: "Brother Long, you misunderstood. The cooperation I told you is not in Xiangjiang, but in Hollywood. I believe that you will return to Hollywood sooner or later, so what I hope is that you are in Hollywood. Movies, how about the two of us working together?"

  Now that Li Xiaolong and Li Xiaolong have become good friends, it is naturally impossible for Chu Huan to watch Li Xiaolong die young again like in another time and space.

   This matter must be prevented.

  If Li Xiaolong hadn't passed away, what height would he have reached? Chu Huan didn't know, but he wanted to see it very much.

   Of course, there is another reason for this. Chu Huan knows very well that in the next forty years, the North American market will always be the center of the global film market.

  Although Chu Huan initially wanted to confuse Chu Tianxiao when he founded the film company, it doesn't mean that Chu Huan doesn't pay attention to this industry. In the future, the entertainment industry will definitely become one of Chu Huan's many industries.

   Either don't do it, if you do, it will naturally be bigger, so even if the entertainment business is not the strongest among Chu Huan's many industries in the future, long-term planning must be made.

   Now Chu Huan people are in Xiangjiang, with Xiangjiang as the center, spreading the entire Southeast Asian market, there should be no problem, but what about the European and American markets?

  Chu Huan needs a stepping stone, and looking at it now, the most suitable stepping stone is undoubtedly Li Xiaolong.

  As for Li Xiaolong himself, maybe now he only regards returning to Hollywood as a goal to be achieved in the future, and he has no idea of ​​going at this moment.

  However, after the global success of "Way of the Dragon" and "Enter the Dragon", Li Xiaolong confirmed his idea of ​​going to Hollywood to develop at that time.

  At that time, Yuan Hua, Lin Zhengying and others who were with Li Xiaolong also received a notice from Li Xiaolong, telling them that they were going to develop in North America after filming the movie "Game of Death".

  But fate tricks people!

   This time Chu Huan wanted to see if his own appearance would change the history.

  After listening to Chu Huan's speech, Li Xiaolong immediately smiled: "Haha, there is no problem. Anyway, I need financial support when I get there."

  Chu Huan nodded seriously, "It's true."

  Li Xiaolong's expression froze for a moment, and then he smiled helplessly.

   At this time, Linda Emery also came to inform everyone that the food was ready and ready to serve.

   At the dinner table, Li Xiaolong talked about the script of "The Way of the Dragon" to Chu Huan. With the experience of "Fist of Fury" last time, Li Xiaolong believed that Chu Huan must have a good understanding of the story.

  Chu Huan did not hide his secrets, and put forward some suggestions, but at the same time, he told Li Xiaolong that these suggestions were just for mutual discussion between friends, and whether Li Xiaolong adopted them depends entirely on the needs of filming.

After dinner, Chu Huan and Miao Kexiu did not leave immediately, but came to his study with Li Xiaolong. Mingdeyuan brought out all the things in the study in the apartment and asked Li Xiaolong to move them in, especially It's the shock equipment.

  In Chu Huan's view, this set of electric shock equipment has even been upgraded by Li Xiaolong.

   "Ah Huan, how about it, I asked you to try it last time, but you didn't agree, do you have any ideas this time?"

  Li Xiaolong pointed to the electric shock equipment and preached to Chu Huan with ulterior motives.

  Yuanhua and Lin Zhengying showed expressions of lingering fear, and at the same time looked at Chu Huan with eyes full of expectation.

  What I have suffered, I hope others will try it.

   As a result, Chu Huan just replied to Li Xiaolong haha!

   Whoever wants to try this thing will try it. Anyway, I don't have a hobby of abusing myself, and my waist hurts a bit during this time, so it is even more impossible for Chu Huan to agree.

   Not only did he not agree, Chu Huan also reminded Li Xiaolong.

   "Brother Long, do you see yourself as a movie actor or a martial artist now!"

  Li Xiaolong was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect Chu Huan to ask such a question, but Li Xiaolong immediately said unquestionably: "I am both a martial artist and a movie actor."

   Sure enough, in the world of adults, there is no choice but I want everything!

   "By the way, A Huan, why do you ask me that?"

  Because I thought you would say that you are a movie actor now, so I can persuade you.

   Regardless of whether the cause of Li Xiaolong's death was because the intensity of the training was too high, which overdrawn his vitality, leading to his final death in Ding Pei's room.

   Still really ambushed by Xiangjiang's club.

  Electric shock, Chu Huan hoped that Li Xiaolong would give up. There are two possibilities, neither of which Chu Huan wants to let happen.

"I once read a medical journal that mentioned this electric shock stimulation method. It said that although this method can improve people's potential, it will also cause serious damage to the body, and even overdraw one's own vitality, so If possible, I hope you can give up this exercise method!"

   "What?" Yuan Hua couldn't help being surprised, and Lin Zhengying did the same.

  They have always regarded this method as Li Xiaolong's inhuman training method, and they didn't think much about it. At most, they admired Li Xiaolong's endurance in their hearts, but now they heard Chu Huan say so.

   They were a little surprised.

   "Young Master Huan, is this true?" Yuan Hua couldn't help asking after being surprised.

  Chu Huan chuckled and said, "Do you think I will joke with you about this kind of thing?"

Magazine? Chu Huan definitely didn't see it, but as long as Chu Huan thinks, I believe that Chu Huan can easily find some authoritative doctors in Xiangjiang to prove his statement.

  At this time, Yuan Hua remembered Chu Huan's identity. At this time, Chu Huan was no longer the Chu Huan when they first met. Now Chu Huan's energy in Xiangjiang, even Li Xiaolong can't match it.

   "Brother Huan will definitely not joke about this kind of thing." Miao Kexiu said at this time.

  Yuan Hua laughed twice and stopped talking.

   Li Xiaolong smiled after showing a complex expression: "Don't worry, I'm not an ordinary person, those injuries don't exist to me."

   Still so strong!

  Li Xiaolong is not a person who is easily persuaded. At the same time, Li Xiaolong's obsession with martial arts has reached an appalling level, otherwise he would not have thought of using such a method to improve his potential.

   Now it is impossible for him to make any changes because of Chu Huan's words.

Chu Huan said: "I'd rather believe what's true or not about my own body. I think it's better to pay attention to it, so I think it's better to do this. In the future, let's find a doctor and give you regular body checkups. If you don't Things are naturally happy for everyone, if there is a problem, it can be found and treated early, right?"

  For Chu Huan's suggestion, Li Xiaolong did not immediately reject it, but fell into consideration.

Seeing this, Chu Huan continued to speak: "Brother Long, don't forget that you have to go to Hollywood to expand our territory for us. If your health breaks down, you can't do anything, and those who used to look down on you , you will never see them regret it."

This sentence can be regarded as talking about Li Xiaolong's pain point, and he couldn't help but nodded and said: "Yes, what you said, A Huan, is also reasonable, but I don't know such a doctor in Xiangjiang. It will definitely attract the attention of the media, and then there will be trouble."

  Chu Huan said with a smile: "It's simple, I will handle this matter, and then you just need to wait for the doctor to come at home."

  Li Xiaolong showed a moved expression: "A Huan, thank you!"

  Chu Huan laughed, and said, "Brother Long, I didn't expect you to have such ink stains one day!"

  The affectionate Li Xiaolong blushed immediately after being teased by Chu Huan, and when he saw Yuan Hua, Lin Zhengying, and Miao Kexiu holding back their laughter, his face blushed immediately.

   "Okay, you dare to make fun of me, don't you forget that I am a martial arts master in the "Black Belt" Hall of Fame."

   After finishing speaking, Li Xiaolong came directly towards Chu Huan.

   Seeing this, Chu Huan dared to fight Li Xiaolong. People like Hong Jinbao and Cheng Long were all dealt with by him, let alone his own physique.

   What's more, he is still weak now.

  Seeing Li Xiaolong approaching, Chu Huan turned around and ran away, but in the small study room, how could Chu Huan outrun Li Xiaolong.

   Not long after, Chu Huan was caught by Li Xiaolong.

   Chu Huan saw that since he couldn't run away, fortunately he didn't run away, and directly wrestled with Li Xiaolong. It was obvious that Li Xiaolong didn't have a real fight with Chu Huan, it was just an ordinary playful rhythm.

   Otherwise, Chu Huan should have gone to the hospital by this time.

   But even so, Chu Huan was not Li Xiaolong's opponent, and was soon pressed to the ground by Li Xiaolong. Seeing that he couldn't break free, Chu Huan didn't think much, and directly used a move to tease his vaginal legs.

   Aww! !

   Li Xiaolong, who never thought that Chu Huan would come to this move, let out a scream, covered his life gate, jumped up on the ground, and then pointed at Chu Huan with one hand, with a painful expression on his face, speechless.

  Chu Huan stood up with a proud face, "There is no strength in martial arts in the world, only speed can't be broken, a man is a man after all!"

   Li Xiaolong saw Chu Huan's embarrassing expression, and said loudly, "You wait for me."

   "Haha, you have no chance!" After saying that, Chu Huan tried to laugh, embarrassed, and Miao Kexiu, whose face was flushed from being suffocated, ran out of the study room, greeted Li Xiaolong's wife, and left directly.

  After Chu Huan left, Li Xiaolong twisted his body, sat on the sofa, glared at Yuan Hua and Lin Zhengying and said, "No one is allowed to tell about this matter!"

"yes!"

  Yuanhua and Lin Zhengying held back their laughter and preached.

   "Brother Huan, you are too bad, that, that." Sitting in the car, Miao Kexiu could finally laugh uncontrollably.

  Chu Huan said: "Are you trying to say that it hurts just looking at it?"

  Miao Kexiu nodded seriously.

   "Actually, there is an identity that I have never told you!" Chu Huan also spoke seriously at this time.

  Miao Kexiu looked at Chu Huan curiously and asked, "What identity?"

   "Actually, I am a master of martial arts!" Chu Huan said.

  Miao Kexiu looked at Chu Huan speechlessly.

  Chu Huan reminded Miao Kexiu at this time: "You must remember this matter. After decades, when I write my autobiography, I must include this paragraph."

   "That's over." Miao Kexiu smiled and said, "Even if Brother Long is on crutches at that time, he will definitely come to trouble you."

   "Hmph, at worst, let him **** **** legs again!"

  Chu Huan preached with disdain.

  Miao Kexiu: "."

   No matter how good the gentle township is, you can't indulge in it. After celebrating Li Xiaolong's housewarming, Chu Huan returned to his work position.

   First, I inspected my company as usual.

Brothers Audiovisual Store is currently opening chain stores in an orderly manner, one by one is being renovated, and one by one is opening. Several months have passed, and now Brothers Audiovisual Store has five chain stores. I can't see anything.

But the company already has the capital to negotiate with the major record companies. At this time, for the convenience of management, when the second audio-visual store started to be renovated, Chu Huan had already established a brother audio-visual company, which was responsible for negotiating with major record companies. , get the record at a lower price.

   As for the management personnel, Bao Tianming has not officially joined the job yet, and Chu Huan has chatted with him several times, but Bao Tianming has not given Chu Huan an accurate answer, obviously he also has his own worries.

  Chu Huan did not force Bao Tianming on this matter. Although the two did not have any problems in trust, Chu Huan also understood that everyone has their own ideas.

  In order to avoid exposing himself in advance, even when recruiting people, Chu Huan did not officially show up, but was represented by Zhu Xiaozhao, and Chu Huan listened in another room.

  The reason why Bao Tianming was not used was because Bao Tianming was still lying in the hospital at that time.

  Because the brother video store is on the right track at this time, it is naturally impossible for Chu Huan to ask directly, so Chu Huan asked Bao Tianming, who had just recovered from his serious injury, to ask about the company.

  Although Bao Tianming has not officially joined the company, during the development of Brothers Audio-visual Company during this period, Bao Tianming has always appeared as the person in charge, so now there are small-scale rumors that Bao Tianming is the boss of Brothers Audio-visual Company.

  Brothers Audiovisual Company does have some problems, but this problem does not occur in management and development, but in the decoration of the new store. In fact, it is not a big problem, but the original decoration team has changed to another team.

Since the eldest brother Cheng has his eyes on the renovation project, he naturally won't give up just like that, so after he approached Bao Tianming several times to express his affection, Bao Tianming found Chu Huan, hoping that Chu Huan could make the renovation work easier. Fully leave it to Big Brother Cheng to do it.

  Although Bao Tianming was looking for the decoration team of their club before, but now the eldest brother Cheng wants to completely control this business in his own hands.

   In short, even one's own business must be grabbed!

   "Brother Huan, I know you don't want to have more contact with the club, but to save you trouble, I will leave this matter to him, but I can assure you that there will be no problem in terms of quality."

  Bao Tianming preached to Chu Huan like this.

  Chu Huan said with a smile at the time: "Since you said so, of course I'm fine. It's still the same sentence. If you want to do something, remember to notify me in advance. I don't want to have something like last time happen again."

  Bao Tianming nodded: "Let me think again, and I'll tell you when I make up my mind!"

  Chu Huan didn't say anything.

  After inquiring about the company with Bao Tianming, Chu Huan went to find Zhu Xiaozhao again. Compared with Bao Tianming's side, Zhu Xiaozhao's side went much smoother.

  The newly opened chain store has completed the decoration and started business.

  But because Chu Huan made the shop too fast before, it will take a while to get back the money.

  After inspecting these two companies, Chu Huan returned to the current base camp and found Fang Jianhui.

  The propaganda work of "The Great Warlord" is about to start planning!

   Not today, thank you everyone~
