Three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.
Zou Wenhuai, who was supposed to leave after sitting down for a while, insisted on staying for more than an hour.
At this time, because he drank too much wine, his face was flushed, and his eyes began to appear bloodshot.
Shi Zhijian knew the time was right, so he winked at Zheng Shaoqiu.
Zheng Shaoqiu was the main wine escort today. Seeing Shi Zhijian winking, he raised his glass to toast again. This time Zou Wenhuai refused, saying that he was too weak to drink.
Shi Zhijian no longer forced Zheng Shaoqiu to sit down.
Zheng Shaoqiu just ate vegetables with minced meat stuck between his teeth, so he found a toothpick and said he was going to pee, avoiding the crowd, and sneakily found a place to pick his teeth.
Shi Zhijian poured a cup of tea for Zou Wenhuai, and said, "Don't be sad, Mr. Zou, I've heard about you too."
"What? Did it spread so quickly?" Zou Wenhuai was taken aback.
Shi Zhijian didn't explain, but just said: "Now that you are on vacation, even if you return to work in the future, the positions of production manager and procurement manager may not be guaranteed. These two positions are the lifeblood of Shao's, and Shao Daheng will definitely employ some obedient people. How can he be relieved of such a rebellious talent like Mr. Zou?"
This sentence was said to Zou Wenhuai's heart, and Shi Zhijian's analysis proved once again that the embarrassing incident about him being treated coldly by Shao Daheng really spread, otherwise how could Shi Zhijian know so much?
Everyone wants face, especially "literati" like them.
Immediately, Zou Wenhuai gloomily drank the tea that Shi Zhijian had just poured, and put the tea cup down with a "snap".
"Good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles! This time, I, Zou, will be ashamed!"
"Mr. Zou, you can't say it like that. Speaking of it, this is an opportunity."
"What do you mean?" Zou Wenhuai looked at Shi Zhijian.
Shi Zhijian took a sip of tea slowly, "Hey, Daheng Shao took the initiative to send you down and let you take a big vacation. It's not that you are sorry for Shao, so why don't you just break away from Shao and do something big?"
The words "do something big" are like a thunderbolt, deafening.
Zou Wenhuai, who was originally drunk, immediately sobered up.
Shi Zhijian didn't notice it, and continued: "The world is so big, you should go out and have a look, you will definitely find something exciting!"
Zou Wenhuai looked uncertain.
It's not that he doesn't want to go out, but what should he do if he goes out?
Now that Shao's is in full swing, who would dare to go against Shao Daheng?
Without strong capital support, making movies is a dead end!
At this moment, Shi Zhijian said, "Actually, I am also very interested in making movies!"
Zou Wenhuai is not a fool, as soon as Shi Zhijian said this, he immediately understood a little bit.
"It turns out that Mr. Shi is also interested in making movies? Does that mean he intends to start a movie company?"
Shi Zhijian chuckled: "If possible, I would like to try."
Zou Wenhuai smiled, a contemptuous smile.
"Try? Mr. Shi thinks of making movies too superficially! Do you know that making movies is a business, but also an art, and you can't succeed by just trying! Even a genius like Shao Daheng , It is also in this industry for most of my life that I have achieved today."
"Mr. Zou, you have misunderstood! I am not saying that filmmaking is an easy business, I just remind you not to belittle yourself! I know that it takes a lot of courage to leave Shaw Brothers. As long as you are willing, I will always support you behind my back! "
"Support me? Let me turn around and work for you?" Zou Wenhuai sneered, thinking that he had already seen through Shi Zhijian's thoughts.
"Wrong! We are partners! I'm not like Shao Daheng, who has all the details and control all the power. I'm a lazy person. If I really set up a film company, I'm afraid I will have to rely on you, Mr. Zou!"
"It's useless to say more! You are just a small businessman now, how can you compete with Shao?"
"Small businessmen are also businessmen! Just like ants can kill elephants, how do you know if you don't try?"
At this time Zheng Shaoqiu came back from picking his teeth, and seeing Shi Zhijian and Zou Wenhuai talking "in full swing", he couldn't help but ask, "Why are you two talking so happily?"
Zou Wenhuai ignored him.
Shi Zhijian didn't speak either.
Zheng Shaoqiu looked embarrassed, thinking that the two were talking and laughing to him just now, but they turned their faces but didn't recognize anyone.
Zheng Shaoqiu returned to his seat and sat down.
Shi Zhijian lifted the teapot and poured a glass of water for Zou Wenhuai, and said to him with a smile, "Think about it?!"
Zou Wenhuai didn't say anything, he picked up the teacup and took a sip.
Zheng Shaoqiu was beside him: "What are you thinking about?"
Zou Wenhuai said, "How can you tell me to believe you?" He looked at Shi Zhijian with burning eyes.
"Simple! Recently I established a company called 'Mythology', so I plan to write a script to promote my company, and the name of this script is-"Mythology"! I have even thought about the theme song, the name It's also called "Myth"!"
Zou Wenhuai was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect that Shi Zhijian was really prepared, not just talking about it.
Shi Zhijian was ashamed. In order to express his sincerity, he had to feel sorry for Jackie Chan.
"Then why don't we make a bet," Zou Wenhuai said suddenly, "If you can really write an excellent script, then it won't be too late for us to discuss today's matter!"
Shi Zhijian smiled, knowing that Zou Wenhuai had been moved by his words, at least his heart was moved.
"Okay! Mr. Zou speaks quickly, let's high-five!"
Clap!
Shi Zhijian and Zou Wenhuai high-fived each other.
Zheng Shaoqiu watched from the side, confused, "What are you doing? Let me know!"
Shi Zhijian picked up the teacup again, "Mr. Zou, please drink tea!"
Zou Wenhuai was aroused by Shi Zhijian, so he no longer kept secrets, picked up his teacup, and drank it down: "Good tea!"
Next to Zheng Shaoqiu, I always feel like I missed something.
...
When Shi Zhijian and Zou Wenhuai broke up, Zou Wenhuai told Shi Zhijian by the way that in order to congratulate "The One-Armed Swordsman" for breaking one million at the box office, Shaw Brothers will hold a grand celebration banquet in the studio tomorrow night, and Shao Daheng also invited him to attend.
Shi Zhijian replied that he must be there on time!
Shi Zhijian is still very interested in participating in this kind of banquet, especially in this era.
After Zou Wenhuai left, Shi Zhijian explained a few more words to Zheng Shaoqiu, and then took a taxi back to his home in Causeway Bay.
Taxis in this era are very scarce, because they are expensive and require high requirements for drivers, especially those who must understand foreign languages, so there are not many taxis.
Shi Zhijian also had great luck, and only then stopped one.
After getting out of the car and paying the fare, Shi Zhijian went upstairs along the stairs.
When he came to the third floor and passed the door of Nie Yongqin, Shi Zhijian paused for a moment, then tiptoed over.
He knew he was coming back too late for fear of waking others up.
When I came to my house, I turned on the light, took a bowl of tea and took a few more sips. I felt that the smell of alcohol had not dissipated, so I tiptoed out the door again, ready to go to the balcony on the fifth floor to blow some air and disperse the wine. gas.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he came to the balcony, he saw the female neighbor Nie Yongqin was also on it, her back was facing him, and she seemed to be thinking about something with her arms folded.
Seeing that the situation was not right, Shi Zhijian was about to turn around and sneak away. He really couldn't satisfy the "artistic young woman"'s appetite for art.
But before he turned around and took a step, Nie Yongqin said behind him: "Am I that scary? You run away as soon as you see me?!"
