Chapter 703 Chapter 702, Thailand Sweeping the World
At breakfast time, Zhang Manyu left, feeling satisfied.

I traveled with the crew of "Hero", led by director Zhang Yimou. They first went to the mountain city, then to the Magic City, and then to Hong Kong Island, Tokyo, Seoul, Singapore and other cities. The last stop was Los Angeles, the United States.

By the time the "Heroes" crew arrived in Los Angeles, the 60th American Film and Television Golden Globe Awards ceremony was about to be held.

Jiang Feng did not participate in the roadshow of the "Hero" crew because this was stipulated in the contract.

Of course, if Jiang Feng does not participate in the roadshow, the atmosphere of the "Hero" crew will be better, after all, there is the lesson learned from last night.

As long as Jiang Feng appears in front of reporters, he will be the focus of all media reporters. If anyone has any questions, just ask him.

Jiang Feng returned to the Beijing Film Academy.

The school is about to have winter vacation, and Jiang Feng wants to take advantage of the time before winter vacation to write his thesis. You know, this year is already the third year of graduate school, and the graduation thesis must be prepared early.

Well... and, I heard from Professor Cui Xinqin that, after efforts by the school leaders, starting in 2003, Beijing Film Academy will become a doctoral degree-granting institution and will establish a doctoral program in film studies. The school hopes that Jiang Feng can become the school's first doctoral student in this major.

Regarding this one, Jiang Feng wanted to refuse.

I've been studying for nearly 20 years and I'm almost sick of it. I want to take a break.

But Teacher Cui Xinqin said on the phone:

Jiang Feng, the reason why our school can officially become an institution that grants doctoral degrees is partly due to your contribution.

At that time, Dean Zhang told his superiors that Jiang Feng, a master's student at our school, had filmed a movie in Hollywood, and the highest box office for a single movie exceeded 9 million US dollars.

But such students cannot study for a doctorate at the Beijing Film Academy. Leaders, do you think this is ridiculous? !

Faced with this situation, Jiang Feng could only scratch his head and say he would think about it again.

Saturday, December 2002, 12
Although today is a weekend, as the winter vacation is approaching, students of Beijing Film Academy are basically rehearsing their final works in the school's various rehearsal rooms.

Jiang Feng got off the car at the school gate and walked into the campus, which was empty.

Well, it can’t be said to be completely empty.

At least in the parking area next to the playground, there was a black RV parked, and next to the RV there was a man and a woman, seemingly arguing about something.

After looking at them, Jiang Feng wanted to take a detour, but these two people were sharp-eyed. When they saw Jiang Feng from a distance, they came over to greet him with a smile.

"Hello, Director Jiang Feng. I'm Liu Xiaoli. Have you forgotten? We met in Los Angeles. My daughter is Liu Yifei, a student in the 2002 undergraduate class of the Department of Acting. Her debut film was the movie "Seeing Ghosts" directed by you."

"Oh, hello Sister Liu, I remembered you!"

Being recognized by the woman, Jiang Feng had no choice but to greet her with a smile.

"Sister Liu, are you here to give something to your daughter?"

“It’s not a gift, it’s just that the girl just finished starring in a TV series called ‘The Story of a Noble Family’. Although it hasn’t been aired yet, she’s become a little famous in the circle.

Isn't the child's godfather having a dinner party tonight? I'll take Xixi to attend it and make some more friends.

Well, Director Jiang Feng, how about we go together tonight?"

"No, I don't like that kind of occasion!"

Jiang Feng waved his hand, thanked them both, turned around, and walked towards the teaching building.

The current situation in the mainland entertainment circle is still better. In another two years, this kind of thing will be commonplace, just like in the Hong Kong business circle, where two bosses discuss business at the dinner table and sitting next to them is a popular actress.

The popular actress was brought by one of the bosses, and bringing her here seemed to symbolize status.

At the dinner party, the main task of the popular actress is to pour tea, or tell jokes or sing songs to liven up the atmosphere.

If it is difficult to negotiate a deal, the popular actress may have to pay something. Of course, in this case, her salary will increase several times or even dozens of times.

Just like that, Jiang Feng walked into the teaching building while thinking about all sorts of things. However, as soon as he entered the corridor, he saw a beautiful woman in a long black down jacket hiding in the corner of the corridor, peeking out.

"Brother Feng, haven't my mother and Uncle Chen left yet?"

Liu Yifei was very happy to see Jiang Feng, and she jumped to his side.

"Not yet. I seem to be waiting for you."

"Oh…"

Hearing this news, Liu Yifei was obviously a little disappointed.

"What's wrong? Don't you want to go out for social events with your mother?" Jiang Feng asked with a smile.

"Of course." Liu Yifei has the nature of a little girl, and she pouted when she said this.

"Brother Feng, you don't know, those old men at the drinking party are so disgusting. They look well-dressed, but they are actually full of thieves and prostitutes. I got up to pour a cup of tea, and my hands were touched by them countless times." The girl lowered her voice and even put her mouth close to Jiang Feng's ear to speak.

Ok…

Hearing this, Jiang Feng was speechless.

You can't tell her that it's better if your mother is there. If your mother isn't there, those people might just do it, right? !
"Well, it seems that I can only pretend to be sick." Liu Yifei muttered to herself: "Last night, I checked on the Internet and found that a virus appeared in the south, which is highly contagious. I don't believe that they will drag me to attend such a drinking party if I say I have that disease."

Ha ha…

The girl's mumbling made Jiang Feng laugh. Look, you've made the child so worried that you even came up with a trick like pretending to be sick.

But in an instant, Jiang Feng was stunned.

Oh shit…, South, Virus, December 2002!
...

Jiang Feng, who originally came to discuss the thesis with Cui Xinqin, did not go upstairs.

Instead, he turned around and walked out of the teaching building, found a few pharmacies outside the school, and bought a bunch of masks, a bunch of isatis root, and a lot of alcohol and gauze.

Although I know nothing is happening in the capital, I still need to be prepared.

Of course, this is not the point. The point is that Jiang Feng, who returned home, contacted his stockbroker Guo Sheng.

[Guosheng, are you there?]

[Mr. Jiang, I'm here. Please go ahead.]

[How much liquid funds do I have in my account?]

【Wait a moment, let me take a look. 】

【2.34 million US dollars! 】

[Well, in recent months, please help me keep a close eye on energy stocks, especially PetroChina. Please tell me if there are any major fluctuations in PetroChina's stock price.]

【OK. 】

[Please help me open an account. Once the account is opened, I will inject 2.5 million US dollars into it. This account will mainly be used to trade Hong Kong stocks. Please help me keep a close eye on Hutchison Whampoa.]

【OK. 】

Guosheng is as steady as ever.

No matter what decision Jiang Feng makes, he will carry it out to the letter.

Jiang Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief after receiving Guo Sheng's text message. He had been busy with the "Yellow Sea" project recently and almost forgot some things.

Like the Iraq War, like the disease next spring...

These are once-in-a-lifetime opportunities in the stock market.

As for the fact that I want to play the role of savior when the crisis comes...

It seems that it is really impossible to do so, because some people and some things cannot be changed just because you know something in advance.

For example, if you go to Saddam Hussein now and say that the United States will attack you in March next year, and that you will die miserably, being dragged out of a tunnel wearing only a pair of shorts.

Believe it or not, if you say this, you will not get a huge bonus, but one or even dozens of bullets. Therefore, Jiang Feng chose to wait and see while ensuring his own safety.

Of course, you need to have the capital to wait and see, otherwise, even if you see a good opportunity, it will slip away.

For example, right now, the funds Jiang Feng has available are the money he has saved from filming movies and releasing music albums in recent years, a total of 2.5 million US dollars. If he had more than ten or twenty billion US dollars in his hands, the situation would be different.

Who knows, just because of Nan Fang's serious illness this time, he might be able to take over more than 10% of Li Huanggua's Hutchison Whampoa's shares.

Fortunately, his latest music album "Read All About It", which was postponed for three months, is about to be released.

Thinking of this, Jiang Feng took out his mobile phone and sent a text message to Zheng Donghan who was far away in Hong Kong Island.

[Mr. Zheng, let's start warming up for our album!]

[Fuck... Jiang Feng, I've been waiting for this text message from you for three months. I thought you had forgotten about it.

OK, let’s get started! 】

Chonburi, Thailand
On Christmas Eve in 2002, Huo Wenxi took a taxi from Bangkok and arrived here secretly, without any bodyguards or assistants.

The reason for this is that Huo Wenxi was entrusted by Boss Yang to ask the White Dragon King for help on two matters.

Since they had contacted each other in advance, although it was already 11 o'clock in the morning when they arrived, Huo Wenxi was still received by the White Dragon King at the White Dragon King Temple.

Everyone is an acquaintance.

Without any greetings or pleasantries, after burning incense, Huo Wenxi asked his first question.

"Sir, are Tingfeng and Yehenala Ying incompatible? Since they started dating, Tingfeng has never had a smooth life. First he had a car accident, then he was framed, and he still hasn't recovered.

Jiang Feng, who debuted at almost the same time as Tingfeng, is now an Asian pop star and a world-renowned director! "

Speaking of which, the White Dragon King, who was sitting cross-legged in the White Dragon King Temple, was really awesome. With his eyes closed and a smile on his face, he instantly gave instructions regarding Huo Wenxi's confusion.

"Yehena Ying is unlucky. She is not a good match for a man."

Hearing this, Huo Wenxi felt as if he had suddenly been enlightened.

is not that right?

Yehenara Ying's ex-boyfriend was a football player. He was once known as the fastest horse in Asia. But after he started dating Yehenara Ying, he immediately became indistinguishable from the crowd.

It is said that he can't even get into the national team now. You know, he is only 30 years old, which is the golden age for a football player.

Eh…

Back then, Tingfeng wanted to pursue Wang Fei, but unfortunately Jiang Feng got there first.

It doesn't matter if he grabs one first. Now Jiang Feng is taking the lead step by step. Even a movie star like Liang Chaowei has to follow him to make a living.

For example, in "Infernal Affairs 2", it was Liang Chaowei's turn because Jiang Feng didn't play the role.

Thinking of this, Huo Wenxi sighed and asked the second question.

"Sir, what do you think of Jiang Feng? Well, let's put it this way. Brother Qinglong got a movie script from him. It's called "Mythology" and the total budget is about 1.6 million Hong Kong dollars. Do you think this movie has a chance to make Tingfeng famous?"

Regarding this question, White Dragon King answered it even faster than the previous question.

"This movie will definitely be a hit, because it has the right timing, right location, and right people, but why can't it make Tingfeng a hit?"

"Why?" Huo Wenxi asked.

"Because he hasn't broken up with Yehenala Ying yet."

groove…

The beautiful agent Huo Wenxi almost swore in the White Dragon King Temple, but I actually forgot about it.

After answering the two questions, White Dragon King, with the help of his disciple, stood up from the dragon throne and prepared to go back to rest.

The White Dragon King's rule is to receive one hundred believers every Tuesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Since Boss Yang had given notice in advance, Huo Wenxi was the 100th one today.

But at this moment, Huo Wenxi spoke for the third time.

"Sir, I have one more thing I need your help with?"

"The last one?"

"The last one!"

“Well, it seems that for Mr. Yang’s sake, you can speak.” White Dragon King stopped and turned to look at Huo Wenxi.

"I am a non-marriage advocate, but I want to have a child myself. I want to ask Jiang Feng what he is like? Because there are many people like me in the circle who were together with him, and then separated after having children."

"Well... I have Jiang Feng's horoscope, but I've never seen him in person. Do you have a photo of him? The kind without makeup?"

"Have!"

Huo Wenxi immediately reached into his bag, took out a photo, and handed it respectfully to the White Dragon King.

The White Dragon King looked at it and smiled.

"That's fine, as long as he wants to."

...

That's fine, as long as he is willing!
This sentence sounds like nonsense, but Huo Wenxi is very happy. She had done in vitro fertilization before, and even asked Tingfeng for help.

But after trying for a while, she still couldn't get pregnant. Now that she heard that the White Dragon King had given her a positive answer, Huo Wenxi was naturally happy.

I was in a good mood and wanted to eat some local Thai food to satisfy my taste.

Less than 2 kilometers from the White Dragon King Temple is Chonburi’s famous food street. Devotees from Hong Kong Island, such as Mr. Yang, director Wang Jing, Liu Weiqiang, Liu Tianwang, Qing Long, Liu Jialing, etc., all come to this food street to dine.

Today, Huo Wenxi is the same.

When they arrived at the place, Huo Wenxi paid the fare, pushed the door and got out. He was just about to go to the restaurant that everyone often went to for a big meal when suddenly, two jumping girls came running over from the side.

The little girl looked very happy, jumping and singing.

"Oh you are shouting Lugagujinangu

How many roads have you called nia difficult yeah fuck enough donkey
Buy all dried silk
Poor La Liga

Crying is over

... "

Hearing the singing of the two little girls, Huo Wenxi laughed at first. It was obvious that the two girls should be tourists from the mainland.

Because their Thai is too unauthentic, there is no such pronunciation.

However, in a moment, Huo Wenxi became a little excited.

This tune sounds so beautiful.

Perfect for Gillian and Charlene Choi to cover!

Wow, I never thought Thailand would have such musical talents.

Thinking of this, Huo Wenxi quickly chased after them, wanting to ask the two little girls where they heard the song from.

However, when Huo Wenxi ran two more steps forward, he heard the same melody coming from the restaurant next door.

"Oh you are shouting Lugagujinangu

How many roads have you called nia difficult yeah fuck enough donkey
Buy all dried silk…”
