Chapter 204, Section 203: Zhao Yazhi's Shock, Debts of Favor Are Hard to Repay
Chapter 204, Section 203: Zhao Yazhi's Shock, Debts of Favor Are Hard to Repay
When Zhao Yazhi saw Kai Shanhua and his henchmen blocking the company entrance, she was so frightened that she wanted to call the police. Just as she was about to take out her mobile phone to make a call, Kai Shanhua snatched the phone away from her.
"Hey! What exactly do you want?"
Seeing this, Zhou Ruifa once again stood up for Zhao Yazhi and reprimanded Kai Shanhua.
Kai Shanhua chuckled and said to Zhao Yazhi:
“Ms. Zhao, I’m not here to force you to make a movie today. I’m here to apologize.”
"All the photos have been destroyed. Our film company has already hired a new actress. You're out of the running."
What? Zhao Yazhi was dumbfounded, and then she and Zhou Ruifa looked at each other in disbelief.
Is that all? I've been eliminated, so I don't need to shoot three-color films anymore?
Zhao Yazhi was overjoyed and cautiously confirmed with Kai Shanhua.
"Were all the photos destroyed?"
Kai Shanhua nodded, and fearing that Zhao Yazhi wouldn't believe him, he even raised his hand to swear.
“Ms. Zhao, I was wrong this time! I used a photoshopped picture to scare you.”
"I'm sorry! I hope you can forgive and forget. All the photos have been destroyed, and none of them will ever be released to the market."
Kai Shanhua broke out in a cold sweat, fearing that Zhao Yazhi wouldn't believe him, and even swore in public that he would never spread the word.
Zhao Yazhi was shocked. When did these gang leaders become so easy to talk to? Their attitudes had completely changed.
It was like a dream; Zhao Yazhi could hardly believe her ears.
"Miss Zhao, please be sure to tell Mr. Yang that there is only a misunderstanding between us and there is no conflict between us!"
Kai Shan Hua earnestly requested, and even took out a stack of Hong Kong dollars, stuffing it into Zhao Yazhi's hand.
"Also, this is for Ms. Zhao's emotional distress. I'm sorry!"
Zhao Yazhi looked at the money in her hand with a strange expression.
Good heavens! A triad boss is losing money on himself? The sun must have risen in the west.
However, Zhao Yazhi also realized that Mr. Yang had intervened and made these gang members apologize to her.
"Alright, I'll tell Mr. Yang."
Zhao Yazhi was in a state of confusion. She quickly sent Kai Shanhua away from the other side of the table. Her chest heaved violently, and her pretty face was filled with lingering fear.
After Kai Shanhua left, Zhao Yazhi hurriedly asked Zhou Ruifa:
"Ah Fa, should we tell Mr. Yang about this?"
Zhou Ruifa said with a smug smile:
“I was worried about it yesterday, so I called Mr. Yang.”
"Mr. Yang is very efficient. He resolved this matter in just one day."
Zhou Ruifa looked very excited and talked at length to Zhao Yazhi. Zhao Yazhi nodded and agreed with Zhou Ruifa's views.
Zhao Yazhi breathed a sigh of relief; the matter was finally resolved, and she could finally get a good night's sleep.
"Ah Fa, I owe Mr. Yang a favor this time. How should I repay it?"
Debts must be repaid, but debts of gratitude are the hardest to repay. Zhao Yazhi has gotten herself into such big trouble this time. If it weren't for Mr. Yang's intervention, she might really have ended up making a pornographic film.
Zhao Yazhi had heard that a Hong Kong female artist had been abducted by triad members and sexually assaulted.
Thinking about all this, he felt even more grateful to Mr. Yang, who had always been protecting the film company. What a good boss!
"I'll treat the boss to dinner~ I'll work hard in filming from now on to repay his kindness!"
Zhou Rui rolled his eyes at Zhao Yazhi. "You're already married, it's not appropriate for you to offer yourself to me!"
Zhao Yazhi nodded. She originally only had one film contract with Asia Television, "The Legend of the White Snake," and planned to retire from the entertainment industry after filming to become a housewife, since the film industry was too murky.
Zhao Yazhi's husband hopes that she will go back to be a good wife and mother and become a housewife, so that she can have more money after filming "The Legend of the White Snake".
Now that things have turned out this way, Zhao Yazhi can no longer say she wants to retire from the entertainment industry, so she can only help Mr. Yang film a few more TV series.
"Ah Fa, I'd like to invite Mr. Yang to dinner tomorrow night. You can come along too."
It would definitely not be good for a lone man and woman to be alone, so Zhao Yazhi decided to invite Zhou Ruifa and Zhang Guorong to have dinner together as a group of four.
"Okay, see you there!"
Zhou Ruifa readily agreed; for such a righteous matter, Zhou Ruifa would not hesitate to take on the task.
Zhao Yazhi hummed a little tune as she drove home, only to find her husband, Huang Dawei, sitting on the sofa, sulking. He didn't say a word when he saw Zhao Yazhi return.
"Where's Xiaobao?"
Zhao Yazhi asked a question, but seeing that her husband on the sofa remained silent and didn't seem to care!
He walked towards the child's room and saw the child doing homework, a smile appearing on his face.
"Ah Zhi, tell me, what's the deal with these photos?"
With a gloomy face, Huang Dawei threw a stack of photos in front of Zhao Yazhi and asked in a harsh tone with anger.
When Zhao Yazhi saw the photos, she suddenly remembered that she had brought them back yesterday but forgot to put them in her bag; they were left in a drawer at home.
"Xiao Bao didn't see it either, did he? These photos are fake."
Huang Dawei flew into a rage, slammed his fist on the table, and shouted:
"Are you afraid Xiaobao will find out? Don't you feel ashamed for doing something like this?"
Zhao Yazhi looked aggrieved. She hadn't expected her husband to disbelieve her and even yell at her in front of the children.
"Huang Dawei, I've already said that these photos are fake, and the matter has been resolved!"
Huang Dawei remained skeptical and questioned Zhao Yazhi:
"What exactly happened? Tell me."
So Zhao Yazhi explained the whole story, including how Mr. Yang helped her resolve the matter.
Huang Dawei became wary and said to Zhao Yazhi:
"Mr. Yang is so kind, could he be interested in you?" After getting married, Huang Dawei was always uneasy about Zhao Yazhi because of his average circumstances, and suspected that someone was trying to steal his wife.
Some people suffer from paranoia, mainly because Zhao Yazhi is too beautiful. She is also a flight attendant and has maintained her figure very well after giving birth.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Mr. Yang is the richest man in the Chinese community, why would he be interested in me?"
Zhao Yazhi blushed, feeling somewhat embarrassed!
"Hmph! If she takes a fancy to you, just go for it. She's got plenty of money!"
"Huang Dawei, are you sick in the head?"
Zhao Yazhi could no longer tolerate it and finally exploded, resulting in a big fight with Huang Dawei.
After Huang Dawei calmed down, he apologized to Zhao Yazhi again and then said to her:
"I'm sorry, Zhi, I was only doing it for the good of this family!"
"Why don't you quit the film company and stop making movies? I'll take care of this family."
Zhao Yazhi shook her head and said to Huang Dawei:
"I owe Mr. Yang a favor, and I still need to make a few films for the film company."
"Ah Zhi, favors can be repaid slowly, but the film industry is too dirty, I'm afraid something will happen to you!"
"No! I must repay this debt of gratitude."
The two disagreed, which inevitably led to an unpleasant meeting, and this incident became a harbinger of a breakdown in their marital relationship.
On the other side, Chen Long also encountered trouble. He was threatened by a Teochew gangster from the Lianying Society. After refusing to be taken advantage of, he was attacked by a group of masked knife-wielders.
Chen Long was slashed and admitted to Hong Kong Sanatorium & Hospital.
As Chen Long's senior brother, Hung Kam-pao came to visit Chen Long in person.
"Ah Long, are you alright?"
Hong Jinbao placed a bouquet of flowers on the table and sat down on the edge of the bed with concern, asking.
"Brother Bao, thank you for going to so much trouble!"
Chen Long was a little embarrassed. Back then, Sammo Hung had also invited Chen Long to join Giant Film Company, but Chen Long thought that his fellow apprentices had already gone to Giant Film Company, and if he went too, there wouldn't be much of a future for him, so he refused.
At Golden Harvest, Chen Long was the crown prince, possessing access to Golden Harvest's vast resources.
Hey! If only Chen Long had known this would happen, he would have switched to Giants Movie with Sammo Hung and the others. Now that he's been beaten up, no one is standing up for him.
"What did Mr. Zou say?"
"Hey~ Mr. Zou wants us to call the police?"
Hong Jinbao's face darkened. He called the police again. He was the victim who had called the police before. His family had been kidnapped by a mad dog, and they almost had their accounts collectively shut down.
"No, you need Mr. Zou to handle this."
Chen Long nodded. He was Golden Harvest's star player, and he wouldn't start work unless the company resolved the issue for him!
Golden Harvest Film Company.
When Raymond Chow received Chen Long's call, he was startled and sat on the sofa, resting his chin on his hand in thought.
“Ah Long asked the company to deal with Lianying Society, but our film company is clean and honest, how can we deal with these scoundrels?”
Raymond Chow frowned. He was really at his wit's end with these gangs. If he didn't deal with them, many of his artists would become disloyal.
If even our lives aren't guaranteed, who would feel safe to start work?
"Mr. Zou, why don't you try asking Mr. Yang? I've heard that Mr. Yang has powerful connections in both the legitimate and underworld circles!"
Assistant He Guanchang suggested that they go to their competitor Yang Jun.
Raymond Chow was speechless. To have to swallow his pride and beg a young man like this was truly...
If you're dealing with competitors, you can't bring yourself to do it.
“If it is inconvenient for Mr. Zou to go, I can go and meet with Yang Jun first.”
"No need. Get the car ready for me. I'm going to Giants Film Company."
Raymond Chow gritted his teeth and decided to personally visit Yang Jun to plead his case. If the film industry continued like this, Golden Harvest would be no match for Giants Films, and it would be best if they didn't go bankrupt.
Hong Kong Giant Empire Group.
Yang Jun was drinking sweet fruit soup when Ahua, who was standing next to him, reported to him:
"I've heard that the police are going to crack down on organized crime soon, and will be sweeping up Malan and underground gambling dens. I've already notified the gangs below to shut down all of these places and lay low for a while!"
Yang Jun scooped up a lychee with a spoon, frowned, and asked:
"Another crackdown on organized crime? What major incident has occurred?"
Ahua complained angrily to Yang Jun:
"It was all because of the stupid things Hung Hing and Tung Sing did. In order to snatch Li Lianjie's management contract, Hung Hing and Tung Sing's underlings opened fire with AK47s in the street, which angered Police Chief Pak Lap Kee."
Normally, conflicts between gangs are resolved through negotiation, or at worst, through a violent fight with knives.
However, using an AK47 on the street is going too far. Hong Kong has very strict gun control regulations, and anyone who uses a firearm will face fierce retaliation from the police.
It's just stealing Li Lianjie, is it really necessary to be so brutal? The entertainment industry is really chaotic these days.
"And another thing! Not only has our shady business been affected, but our nightclub has also been affected, mainly because the security situation is so bad that some customers are afraid to come out and have fun."
No sooner had he finished speaking than Li Junxia, the deputy commissioner of police, called.
"Mr. Yang, I apologize for disturbing you!"
"Director Li, I heard that Brother Yi is about to be transferred. You might have a chance!"
Yang Jun thought Li Junxia was making a phone call to build connections, since the foreigner Bai Liji was about to be transferred, and the only qualified successors were the two deputy commissioners and the assistant commissioner of police, so Li Junxia had a good chance.
"Haha! We still need Mr. Yang's strong support, but that's not why I'm here today."
"Oh, what is it?"
"Regarding the recent violent activities targeting the film industry, which have seriously affected Hong Kong's public security and international image, I hope Mr. Yang can take action to rectify the chaos in the entertainment industry and maintain Hong Kong's public security!"
Good heavens! Yang Jun's lips twitched. The police asked him to maintain order?
I'm also a big shot in the gang; isn't public order managed by the police?
