19. Honey, why are you thinking about naughty things all the time?
‘Liu Kai Wei’ isn't from Eagle Emperor Entertainment.
He's from TVB,
but he's still part of the Hong Kong entertainment industry.
So he knows Huo Wen Xi and they have each other's contact information.
Liu Kai Wei's dad is Liu Dan, a veteran actor in Hong Kong entertainment. Coupled with Liu Kai Wei's success in mainland China over the years, most people in Hong Kong entertainment would give him some face.
"Kai Wei, why are you calling me suddenly?"
"Is there something good you want me to help with?"
Huo Wen Xi asked.
Of course, she spoke to Liu Wei in Cantonese.
After all,
her Mandarin is really terrible!
She was born in 1972, two years older than Liu Kai Wei.
Although she's not a star, she takes good care of herself, looking about 30 years old. Many people even mistook her for Nicholas Tse's girlfriend...
Liu Wei didn't beat around the bush, and frankly said: "Mani姐, I have a script, 'The Legend of the Ancient Sword', a Xianxia genre. My wife, Yang Mi, and I want to film it. I wanted to ask if Eagle Emperor is interested in participating!"
"Of course, Eagle Emperor can also have our artists join in!"
"Yang Mi will be the lead?"
Huo Wen Xi asked.
"Yes."
"With no surprises, I'll play the male lead!"
"For other roles, if Eagle Emperor Entertainment has suitable actors, they can be considered first..."
Liu Wei laughed: "I heard William Chan and Gillian Chung want to develop in mainland China? This might be a good opportunity!"
"Mani姐, if you're interested, I can send you the script to take a look. If you like it, give me your answer!"
"Of course I'm interested."
"Send me the script to look over, and I'll reply to you as soon as possible!"
Huo Wen Xi said readily.
Hong Kong entertainment is on the decline,
and all the artists under Eagle Emperor Entertainment want to develop in mainland China.
But currently, only Nicholas Tse has made a name for himself in the mainland market. Huo Wen Xi is always looking for opportunities to make her artists famous in mainland China...
Unfortunately,
there hasn't been a good opportunity.
How could she refuse Liu Wei?
As long as the script is good,
Eagle Emperor is willing to invest!
"Alright!"
"Then I'll send you the script..."
After that,
Liu Wei sent the 'The Legend of the Ancient Sword' script to Huo Wen Xi.
...
On the side,
Yang Mi asked with some worry: "Honey, will Huo Wen Xi really be interested?"
"Of course!"
"She will definitely invest!"
"But I also don't plan to give her too much of the share. The main power of speech is in my and your hands!"
Liu Wei laughed.
The artists from Hong Kong have long been eyeing the big cake of mainland entertainment.
They've even sent many artists to mainland China to film dramas or participate in variety shows. Maybe it's because of the unfamiliar environment, but none of them have made any waves...
How smart is Huo Wen Xi?
She single-handedly made Nicholas Tse, the Twins group, Charlene Choi, and others famous.
Also, William Chan,
in the previous world,
if Huo Wen Xi had let him star in 'The Legend of the Ancient Sword', he would have become a complete hit!
Huo Wen Xi,
absolutely sees this as a good opportunity!
And the reason Liu Wei approached her first is naturally because 'The Legend of the Ancient Sword' originally had William Chan and Gillian Chung starring...
He also wanted to find the original cast to film it,
so why not tie Eagle Emperor to the same chariot?
Looking at Liu Wei's confident appearance, Yang Mi was also infected, and laughed: "Honey is so confident, it definitely won't be a problem!"
"Hmph, Zeng Jia and Zhao Ru Rao, they actually treated me like that."
"I really didn't expect them to be this kind of people. It seems Honey was very right not to let me start a company with them!"
"Of course!"
"Would I ever cheat you?"
Liu Wei grinned, a bit smugly saying: "Joy Pictures refused to invest in 'The Legend of the Ancient Sword', they'll definitely regret it in the future!"
"As for Zeng Jia and Zhao Ru Rao, I'll see what tricks they can play!"
Joy Pictures.
Zeng Jia and Zhao Ru Rao were smiling.
"Heh, Liu Kai Wei can write a script?"
"I have to say, the 'The Legend of the Ancient Sword' script is really good, but unfortunately, no one will invest in him!"
"I'm curious to see what else he can do!"
...
Hong Kong.
After Liu Wei sent the script,
Huo Wen Xi couldn't wait to read it.
The more she read,
the brighter her eyes became!
"This script is really good!"
"It's much better than the mainland scripts I've seen lately..."
"And this drama has Yang Mi as the female lead. With her popularity, it will definitely get a lot of attention. Liu Kai Wei is really taking good care of us..."
Still at home,
she immediately went downstairs and drove to Eagle Emperor Entertainment headquarters.
"Call all the executives..."
"I have a good script in my hands. Everyone study it, whether it's worth investing in and how much we should invest..."
...
Two hours later.
Huo Wen Xi called back Liu Wei.
"Kai Wei, the script is great."
"Do you have time recently? We can talk in person, and discuss how we can cooperate together!"
Liu Wei laughed: "I have time recently."
"So should I fly to Beijing to find you, or will you come back to Hong Kong?"
"emm..."
"I just happen to be going back to Hong Kong with my wife to visit my family, so we'll come back to Hong Kong to find you to chat..."
Liu Wei said calmly.
After he and Yang Mi returned from Bali, they had never been back to Hong Kong.
Although,
he isn't 'Liu Kai Wei',
he still needs to fulfill his filial duty since he's taken his identity...
"Okay, I'll wait for you."
He ended the call.
Liu Wei asked Bai Shang to book plane tickets.
Then, he and Yang Mi immediately flew to Hong Kong...
On the plane,
Liu Wei and Yang Mi sat together.
Remembering their wonderful experience on the plane from Bali back to Beijing, Liu Wei mischievously said: "Wife, do you want to go to the bathroom together?"
Yang Mi,
immediately knew what he was up to...
She quietly pinched him on the waist, and teasingly said: "Honey, why are you thinking about naughty things all the time??"
