Chapter 998 Five Days in Hong Kong Chapter 999 Du Yuesheng(1/3)

I never thought that I would see these celebrities in Hong Kong who can only be seen in the video materials in the books. I have looked at these faces over and over again. They were very cold in the books. But now, they are in front of me, appearing alive in front of me.

They have expressions and smiles, and I can listen to them laughing at me from a close distance. This feeling is really amazing.

After the introduction, everyone was in high spirits, and only I was a little disappointed.

"Everyone go to our branch, we will hold a cocktail party there!" Nico said laughably.

"Yes, we have a good cocktail party. We have always been secretly in the United States and are so frustrated." Sdenberg said hummingly. This guy seemed to have a good impression of Hu Die and was always around Hu Die, not sure what he wanted to do.

The airport is in the branch factory. Nico said that it only takes more than ten minutes to walk from the airport to the branch banquet hall.

We left some employees to pack up at the airport, carry equipment, and then a large group of people walked through the branch toward the reception location.

Along the way, Nico also took us into some production workshops. This branch in Hong Kong is now called the largest arms manufacturing base in Asia. From light weapons such as submachine guns, grenades, machine guns, to heavy weapons such as howitzers and heavy artillery, there are all production lines. In addition, this year they will add a production line for tank vehicles, which will produce major images in this area.

The weapons produced by Northrop's Hong Kong branch are widely praised in China because of their excellent quality and price. These weapons are sold in large quantities and are equipped among many armies, which greatly improves the combat effectiveness of the Chinese army. However, the Japanese hated this arms company to the core because the Hong Kong branch never sells weapons to them, even if the price they offer is much higher than the price sold to the Chinese.

The Chinese are very impressed by the actions of the branch.

Of course, if you can't buy weapons from a branch factory, the Japanese will also come up with some bad ideas. For example, they will establish relationships with some Chinese soldiers, pay for Chinese soldiers to buy them, or buy them directly from Chinese soldiers. However, the branch factory has conducted a large number of investigations on all those who come to the branch factory to buy arms. This trick of Japanese people rarely succeeds. Even if some Chinese soldiers who are obsessed with money do such a thing, he can only do this one time, because he will be on the blacklist of the branch factory.

.There is no longer the qualification to buy weapons, which makes it unlikely that most military controllers will agree to cooperate with the Japanese, because for them, the army is their capital, and equipment is the most fundamental factor in maintaining the development of the army. They do not want to lose the great opportunity to buy advanced weapons just because of a little money. In addition, once these people's cooperation with the Japanese are shaken off, it will immediately cause condemnation across the country. Public opinion and people's hearts are also what they value.

Therefore, the Hong Kong branch is very famous in Asia, but this place has always been kept confidential. Few people can come in. This time Nico led everyone to visit it, which made these filmmakers very happy.

"Mr. Corleon, this is the first time I have seen such an advanced arms factory. I have been to the army once because of filming a movie. I found that many of them use the weapons you produce. You have made great contributions to our revolutionary cause!" Li Minwei has always been very concerned about the military and the fate of the country. He saw the scene of the rushing fire in the arms field. He saw batches of weapons transported to the conveyor belt to pack. This middle-aged man was filled with emotion.

The others were also very curious. Tian Han and Xia Yan even picked up dragon-style submachine guns from the conveyor belt and posed for the soldiers to take photos of them.

"If the Japanese invade us that day, we will go to the battlefield like this!" The thin Xia Yan said firmly with a face full of his face.

The two look very cute.

After visiting the submachine gun production line, in a workshop, both men and women screamed.

The workshop produces pistols, and there are all kinds of pistols, many of which are high-standard, small and exquisite, and have great power and precision.

In such an era, many people will buy one or two weapons to defend themselves as long as they have some spare money, even women are no exception, and pistols naturally become their best choice.

So when they saw such exquisite pistols in front of them, all of these people became excited. Even a woman like Ruan Lingyu picked up a small pistol in surprise and couldn't let go of it.

"Everyone, if you like it, you can pick one here, even if it's a gift I give you." My words caused a lot of cheers, and everyone did not refuse to choose their favorite pistols.

"It seems that no matter where you are, weapons are always good things." The fat man smiled.

"Especially in troubled times." I added.

After visiting the arms branch, we held a grand cocktail party in the party hall of the branch, which lasted from morning to afternoon.

Everyone was very happy at the cocktail party. After the cocktail party, these people went to rest under Nico's arrangement. In the room behind the hall, I only left people from star film companies such as Zhang Shichuan, Zheng Zhengqiu, and Fei Mu.

The cheerful atmosphere at the cocktail party just now disappeared here, replaced by an extremely solemnity.

"Brother Ishikawa, Brother Masaki, I came here not to travel around, nor to investigate." My first words made Zhang Shikawa and Zheng Zhengqiu stunned.

"Mr. Corleon, what we learned is that you came here this time mainly to cut the production line of the branch and then inspect the Chinese culture." Zhang Shichuan looked at me, a little disbelief.

I smiled and said, "Look, I want someone to be able to investigate everywhere. There is nothing important, and I won't come here."

"Boss, Mr. Corleon is here this time to shoot a movie." Feimu pushed his eyes.

"Make a movie! Mr. Corleon, what movie do you want to shoot?" As a filmmaker, Zhang Shichuan immediately became interested when he heard that I was going to shoot a movie in China. When the screenwriters, actors and directors of celebrity film companies heard this, they all felt energetic.

They all seemed to realize that this was an opportunity, and if they could participate in this movie, it would undoubtedly greatly improve their reputation. Especially those actors, all of whom were looking at me with all their concentration, looking forward to me to continue talking.

"Everyone, the situation in China this year is not very good." I sighed, and then explained in detail the situation in Japan and their possible war of aggression against China this year. The people all glared.

As filmmakers and cultural figures, especially those in the celebrity film companies that are deeply influenced by DreamWorks, they have always been extremely concerned about the fate of the country. How can they hold back when they hear such news?

"Mr. Corleon, your behavior makes us ashamed! We cannot do our own country's affairs, but instead let you run over from all the way. It really makes us like us unable to raise our heads!" Zhang Shichuan shook his head.

"Mr. Corleon. Just tell me if you have any questions. The celebrity film company will do everything possible to help you complete this movie! It will be our honor to be able to shoot such a movie!" Zheng Zhengqiu pushed his eyes excitedly.

"Boss, just give me instructions. Treat us as gunmen!" Cai Chusheng's voice trembled with excitement.

"Everyone, I can remind you that this time the film is completely different from the movies you filmed in the past. This time we will be able to go directly to the battlefield and shoot it on the battlefield! Bullets pass by us, death stays by us, and no one knows what will happen. Maybe you will never get off the battlefield again. So I hope you can think clearly." I looked at these people and said in a deep voice.

"Mr. Corleon, I am a woman. I don't know much about war, but I know that the reason why our China has been bullied for so many years has not perished. It is that there are always some people who are not afraid of sacrifice and are working for the country. I really hope that I can become such a person, even if I die in front of the camera!" At this time, Ruan Lingyu stood up. Her voice was very light, but her pretty face was extremely firm.

"Miss Ruan said it well! We all hope to make this movie. Mr. Corleon, just give me the order!" The tall Jin Yan stood up and clenched his fists.

Looking at the passionate people in front of me, I nodded.

Next, I talked about the specific movie plan, and these people listened very carefully, especially when they heard that the movie would be filmed in the Northeast, they were both excited and worried.

"Mr. Corleon, the Northeast is a place where the Japanese have been eyeing each other for a long time. If they could shoot such a movie, they would definitely awaken the people! But what I am worried about is that the filming of the movie would not be so smooth there." Zhang Shichuan frowned and said.

"Why?" I asked.

"Although the Northeast is now nominally led by the central government, it is actually still the territory of the Zhang family. In other words, the Zhang family is the local emperor there. Can they allow you to shoot at will on that territory?" Zhang Shichuan looked at me and asked.

I frowned and said, "I will find a way to solve this problem."

"Actually, I don't think there is any big problem. Mr. Zhang has always hated the Japanese very much, and I heard that this young man is very enthusiastic about culture, especially in the movies. He should have some understanding of Mr. Corleon. Besides, Mr. Corleon did local things this time, both for the country and for the Northeast, and he had no reason to refuse." Cai Chusheng echoed.

I smiled, then looked at Zhang Shichuan and said, "Brother Ishikawa, the actors and most of the crew members in this movie will be Chinese, so I am afraid that many of them will be selected from your celebrity movie company."

"Mr. Corleon, you will be dismissed. You do this. It is the honor of our stars! Even if you choose, we will cooperate with you!" Zhang Shichuan slapped the armrest of the sofa and said: "In the past few years, we have filmed some patriotic movies, but we have never done a big fight! This time I have waited for a great opportunity!"

"Okay, I'll discuss with you after I've finished writing the specific shooting outline." I stood up, looked at the people in front of me, and smiled slightly: "However, I hope everyone can help more!"

"Sure!" These people answered in unison.

That night, I went to the Governor's Office to attend their welcome banquet. After some social engagements, it was already past 11 o'clock in the evening when I returned to the branch.

In the living room, Nico and the others were waiting for me.

"All ready?" I asked.

"It's ready." Nico nodded.

"Ozu, you must be very careful this time. Remember to take care of your personal safety." I patted Ozu's thin shoulders.

"Boss, it's okay. Besides, I'm not alone this time." Ozu laughed.

"Who else has gone?" I said in surprise. "We!" A response came from behind me, and I changed my face. I saw two solemn faces.

Ito Daisuke and Mizuguchi Kenji!

"Boss, this time, the three of us will definitely be able to ensure the quality of the film taken! And the three of us will also take care of each other." Kenji Mizuguchi looked sincerely.

Looking at these three people, my nose became sore.

"Everyone, I thank you for the Chinese." I held their hands tightly.

"Boss, we are also doing things for those innocent Japanese civilians! I will say nothing, long live the peace!" Ozu smiled.

"Long live the peace!" I nodded heavily.

"You have arranged everything in Japan?" I turned around and asked Nico.

"It's all arranged. There will definitely be no security issues in the area. Ozu and his party will take a boat to leave from Hong Kong and log in to North Korea. Someone will pick them up there, and then they pass through North Korea and enter the Kwantung Army's base. Honjo Shin has already agreed that he welcomes Ozu and the others very much, and these guys are missing such people now. They are very happy. In addition, we are also arranged along the route. These people are the hidden lines of our company, although they are not as good as the factory guards. But they are still more than enough to deal with the Japanese. So boss, don't worry about their safety." Nico replied solemnly.

"Then I'll feel relieved. Let's set off, I look forward to your good news!" I shook hands with them one by one.

That night, Ozu, Miuraguchi and Ito led some of the people they were with him to set off from Hong Kong to North Korea. What awaited them would be a difficult journey.

"Nico, prepare a batch of gifts for me." After seeing Ozu and the others off, I lit a cigarette.

"Gift? Boss, who are you going to give to?" Nico asked.

"Zhang Xueliang." I smiled.

"That young man from the Northeast? I heard that this young man is very amazing. He doesn't like money and sex, so he is afraid that gifts are not that easy to give." Nico naturally understood what I mean.

"Made in wealth?" I laughed in silence: "Nico, do what I said. This gift will definitely satisfy Mr. Zhang. But I'm afraid our Rockettke Consortium will have to spend a lot this time."

Next, I personally gave Nico a list. Nico looked at the list and immediately grew up.

"Why, I feel sorry?" I smiled as I looked at Nico.

"Boss, this time it's really a waste." Nico shook his head.

In Hong Kong, I took it for four or five days. During this period, there were social gatherings and endless people came to visit, but I couldn't refuse, so I had to bite the bullet and receive it. During the two days here, I also took the time to write the shooting outline, and the others were busy. Nico was so busy that he almost vomited blood to prepare the gift I gave to Zhang Xueliang.

During these two days, I also saw some things that interest me in the newspapers, one of which attracted my attention.

This incident is called the "Wanbaoshan Incident" in newspapers.

The thing is like this. In the northeast, there is a Chinese man named Hao Yongde. This guy defrauded the land of 12 Chinese farmers near Wanbaoshan Village without the approval of the government, and illegally sublet it to 188 North Koreans to cultivate rice. These North Koreans rely on their masters, seemingly the Japanese, and dig canals in the local area to intercept and build dams. This project seriously damaged the interests of local farmers. The local farmers reported it to the government, and the Jilin Provincial Government immediately issued an instruction: "Let the Korean overseas Chinese leave the country."

The Chinese government's instructions were completely legal. However, the Japanese consul in Changchun sent Japanese police to stop the North Koreans from withdrawing and restricted the North Koreans from completing the dam before July. The North Koreans had their masters support and became more and more arrogant and sent a large amount of manpower to build the dam. More than 400 Chinese farmers joined forces to demolish the dam but were suppressed by the Japanese police.

Under the protection of Japanese military and police, the Koreans finally completed the construction on July 5. At the same time, Japan fabricated news through a local reporter from North Korea named Kinli, saying that the Koreans were killed in Wanbaoshan. The Koreans immediately launched a large-scale anti-Chinese movement on their peninsula. These people gathered in front of their Japanese masters, demanded their masters to support them, and attacked the local Chinese, causing hundreds of Chinese to die in their hands, and it is said that there were many elderly people and children among them. The Japanese government even used this incident to falsely accuse China of harming their North Korean expatriates.

This incident caused anger among the Chinese media. A commentary article was published in the "Shen Bao" on the same day: "Building a dam on the land of our country, suppressing the people of our country on the land of our country, and attacking the Chinese in our country. Fraudulently accusing our country's legitimate policies and trampling on the dignity of our country is a strange story that has never been seen before! The great humiliation of China! The great humiliation of the people of our country! The great humiliation of our 400 million compatriots!"

"The rampant Japan and the arrogance of North Korea's lackeys really make my people angry! China, when will it become stronger? My people, when will it take back its lost dignity!"

This incident was a big mess in the country and attracted the attention of the central government, but it was all left alone.

"The Japanese are starting to implement this, they are already creating public opinion." I put down the newspaper and looked at Fei Mu next to me.

"This is their usual trick." Fei Mu's face looked very ugly.
