Hong Kong Entertainment 1979: A Beating Up the Manager at the Start

Chapter 170 Shura Field

In the afternoon, Yuan Hua and Cheng Xiaodong appeared in Li Jiangbo's office on time.

After sending the script to the two, Li Jiangbo said, "Ahua, you'll play the male instructor of the Flying Tigers. Include Leslie Cheung and Lawrence Ng in the cast too. As for the others, discuss it with Adong and Brother Jing, and remember to pick a comedic role."

Yuan Hua nodded. "Okay, leave it to me."

"Ah Dong will be in charge of action design and training. Hui Yinghong will be at the company later, you can discuss it with her then."

Cheng Xiaodong nodded. "Mr. Li, this is what I'm thinking. The first week is for practicing basic skills, the next two weeks are for learning routines, and the last week is for physical training."

Li Jiangbo nodded. "Don't go overboard. Listen to Hui Yinghong's advice. After all, she's a girl!"

"Don't worry, Mr. Li, I will communicate well with Ah Hong."

"Alright, you can lead them in training tomorrow."

After discussing it for a while, Yuan Hua and Cheng Xiaodong went to get busy.

Wang Jing acted swiftly; not long after Yuan Hua and Cheng Xiaodong left, he brought Hui Yinghong to Li Jiangbo's office.

Li Jiangbo gave Hui Yinghong a script and briefly explained the training process to her.

Kara Hui agreed without hesitation, but said that there was still a little bit left to film in "The 18 Martial Arts", and promised to come over as soon as filming was finished.

The training began the next day.

At the beginning of training, Yuen Wah and Ching Siu-tung didn't dare to increase the intensity for the celebrities, only doing simple leg stretches and running laps.

Basic movements such as stretching and loosening muscles.

The group adapted relatively quickly. Actors like Zhu Lin, Cherie Chung, and Rosamund Kwan had previously practiced at the Pink Chrysanthemum Drama Academy, so they found it relatively easy.

Hu Huizhong, Du Lisha, Ye Qianwen, and Mei Yanfang, relying on their youth and willingness to work hard, were able to keep up with everyone's pace.

Only Lin Ching-hsia is a little behind, after all, she is not young anymore, she is already 27.

But there are advantages to being older: you have more experience and are more willing to work hard.

But everything changed on the third day after Kara Hui arrived.

As soon as Kara Hui arrived, she gave everyone a rude awakening. She doubled the training volume set by Cheng Xiaodong, and the eight girls almost blew the roof off the training room.

Hearing Hui Yinghong's arrangement, Yuan Hua secretly shook his head.

Cheng Xiaodong asked in a low voice, "Yinghong! Aren't twenty laps, fifty push-ups, fifty sit-ups, and fifty squats a bit too much?"

Kara Hui smiled and said, "Let's give it a try! If it doesn't work, we can reduce the dosage. Besides, they persevered the past few days, didn't they?"

Cheng Xiaodong and Yuan Hua stared wide-eyed at Hui Yinghong, thinking to themselves: So even you're not sure about this!

They both realized that this guy was doing it on purpose; he was just having a prank.

This whole process really exhausted Lin Ching-hsia, Anita Mui, Sibelle Hu, and Teresa Carpio.

After completing their actions, the group collapsed to the ground, too exhausted to move.

Lin Qingxia's gaze kept drifting towards the door. She hadn't seen her lover for three days and wondered what Li Jiangbo was up to, as he hadn't even gone to her apartment.

This feeling was quickly replaced by the heavy training, but during her daily training, her gaze would unconsciously drift towards the door.

But after reading it, Lin Qingxia felt somewhat ridiculous. She wasn't a teenage girl anymore, so why was she acting like this?

Actually, it wasn't that Li Jiangbo didn't want to come, but that he didn't dare to come.

His arrival would be a five-person battleground, and he himself didn't know if he could handle it.

But what had to be faced still had to be faced, so a week later Li Jiangbo appeared at the entrance of the training room, carrying a large bag of drinks.

Rosamund Kwan was the first to spot him, but due to the authority of the three instructors, she did not come to greet him immediately.

Li Jiangbo put down the bag he was carrying, took out three cans of Bingfeng soda, walked over to the three men, distributed the cans, and asked, "Adong, how's your training going?"

Cheng Xiaodong took the Bingfeng soda, opened it, and took a sip. "You've improved a lot. We'll start practicing routines next week."

"When will this training session end?"

Yuan Hua replied, "Soon."

Li Jiangbo nodded and said nothing more, his gaze falling on the group of people who were training.

After waiting for about ten minutes, the training finally ended with a whistle from Hui Yinghong.

As soon as it ended, Rosamund Kwan rushed to Li Jiangbo, grabbed his arm, and exclaimed, "Brother Bo! You're finally here! I'm exhausted!"

It would have been fine if Rosamund Kwan hadn't hugged him, but as soon as she did, Li Jiangbo felt several murderous glares.

Li Jiangbo, trying to remain calm, handed the ice cream to Guan Zhilin, saying, "Practice hard, don't slack off."

Rosamund Kwan took the Bingfeng soda, opened it, drank it all in one gulp, and then squinted her eyes in satisfaction.

"I didn't slack off!"

Cheng Xiaodong, standing to the side, snorted coldly, "He didn't slack off, he just dropped from third to sixth place."

Everyone burst into laughter upon hearing this, and Rosamund Kwan stomped her feet in anger.

She snorted heavily, finished her Bingfeng drink, and then went back to practicing on her own.

Lin Qingxia walked over and took the ice cream from Li Jiangbo. "Thank you."

Two people had already come over, and the others squeezed in, each grabbing a bag of Bingfeng soda.

However, when Ye Qianwen, Zhu Lin, and Zhong Chuhong took the ice peak, they gave Li Jiangbo a deep look, their eyes carrying an indescribable feeling.

Li Jiangbo felt guilty and dared not look at the others. Only Hu Huizhong, Du Lisha, and Mei Yanfang held Bingfeng ice cream and huddled together, chatting quietly.

Teresa Teng nudged Anita Mui's arm. "Anita, did you feel that just now?"

"What do you feel?"

Teresa lowered her voice, "The air around the boss is cold."

Hu Huizhong chimed in, "Yeah! I felt it too. When I was getting the Ice Peak earlier, my arms were covered in rashes."

A layer of goosebumps.

Teresa Teng joked, "You're not getting goosebumps, you're just moved!"

Mei Yanfang sighed and said softly, "I really don't understand why the boss would offend so many people."

Hu Huizhong asked, "Whom did they offend?"

Mei Yanfang pointed to a few people, "Look! You can tell just by looking at Ah Lin, Ah Hong, and Jia Hui."

Teresa Teng added, "And Sister Qingxia too!" She clicked her tongue twice and said, "Among these people, I'm afraid only Sister Qingxia is unaware of the others' existence."

"However, on the other hand, a man as talented, wealthy, and kind as the boss is hard to find even with a lantern."

Mui Yan-fang shook her head. "I don't like that. I'm going to find a man who only loves me."

Hu Huizhong asked, "How do you treat people well?"

Teresa lowered her voice, "You probably don't know, but the boss gave 20% to General Manager Zhao and General Manager Pan, and then gave the videotape factory the rest."

"Those shares, you know, are worth over six million!"

"And Ah Hong, Ah Lin, Jia Hui, and Ah Mei are the four who endorse Bingfeng GG, and their monthly income exceeds this amount."

As she spoke, she made a six-shaped hand gesture.

Hu Huizhong stared wide-eyed, her face filled with disbelief.

"Six hundred thousand? Really? How did you know?"

Mei Yanfang said embarrassedly, "Don't listen to her nonsense. It takes a lot of sales in a month to reach that number. Besides, Sister Sasha also signed a contract!"

Teresa Teng slapped her forehead and chuckled sheepishly, "I forgot the person involved was here. We're all just small fry; Time Girl is the real star. She's so popular, while I'm all alone..."

After listening, Hu Huizhong fell into deep thought. She thought to herself: If the boss treats me like this, I'll accept it...

Just then, a whistle brought everyone back to their senses, and training resumed.

Li Jiangbo watched for a while, then left the training room. He dared not stay inside any longer; it was truly agonizing for him.

As soon as he stepped out of the training room, he saw Lizhi waiting at the door with a stack of documents in his arms.

He reached out to help Riji with some of the burden, saying, "Let's go back to the office and talk about it."

Li Zhi nodded and followed behind Li Jiangbo.
