Chapter 490. Never lower your head!

Although Ma Rongzhen was currently leading a poor lifestyle, his acting career began many years ago, he had to go through a lot in the seething show business, so when he heard Lu Chen’s question, he immediately knew what was going on.

No!;

He replied firmly: “Even if it were, I would never have left the crew, unless you yourself, young mister Lu, ask me to leave!”

Lu Chen and Chen Wenqiang, glancing at each other, read each other’s glee.

If Ma Rongzhen escaped, it would be a lot of trouble!

Lu Chen, feeling relieved, smiled, “That’s great. Don’t worry, I’m definitely not asking you to leave. With our joint efforts, we will make this film.”

This veteran of the stage was certainly trustworthy.

Ma Rongzhen asked carefully,” Young sir Lu, and Liu Zhaohui probably doesn’t want to continue filming?”

Lu Chen and Chen Wenqiang were numb. The latter asked in amazement, “Brother Rongzhen, how do you know?”

“This man…”

Ma Rongzhen’s gaze flashed with disdain. He said: “… Not only cunning, but also overly cowardly. Anyone can intimidate him, he immediately gives the back, so no surprise.”

It was evident that Ma Rongzhen despised Liu Zhaohui furiously. Probably, some kind of conflict arose between them in the past.

But Lu Chen was not worried about their relationship, but Ma Rongzhen himself: “Uncle Ma, why are you not afraid? After all, behind the Honghua company, which puts a spoke in our wheels, is the Shinitang triad.”

Ma Rongzhen chuckled:” Why should I be afraid?”

“I’m a lost person now. If the Shinitang Triad wanted to cause me trouble, I would no matter what clashed with them. Modern Hong Kong is no longer the Hong Kong that it was decades ago. The Jiang family is far from being the most powerful people in Hong Kong!”

Ma Rongzhen said in a completely imperturbable tone:” If earlier, when I was a well-to-do man, the Shinitan Triad decided to trouble me, maybe, I would be as afraid as Liu Zhaohui, but now I really am not afraid of anything. My wife and child have long since run away from me, I have only a mother left. Since those people are not afraid to stir up public indignation, then sooner or later they will bring trouble on their heads.”

“If Jiang Chenghua dares to cross my path, then I will dare to lie down with my mother in front of the threshold his father’s house. Let’s see who loses face!”

Lu Chen was slightly shocked, but generally calm for Ma Rongzhen.

“Then be careful, they can resort to dastardly tricks.”

Ma Rongzhen laughed,” Young Mr. Lu, they are unlikely to plan to kick me out of the crew, I don’t have a very good reputation in show business anyway.”

Cash Loser!

Lu Chen suddenly remembered Ma Rongzhen’s nickname and involuntarily smiled.

Ma Rongzhen sighed : “To tell the truth, in a situation like ours, the best solution would be to find some tycoon and come to an agreement with him. Unfortunately, I currently have no authority whatsoever. I’m sorry I can’t help you.”

“Don’t say that…”

Lu Chen shook his head.” Uncle Ma, the fact that you persist in staying with the crew is help.”

Despite the constant hassle that the crew had to face, the filming process could not be interrupted because of this, otherwise there will be big losses.

Lu Chen did not try to persuade anyone to stay who decided to leave the film crew. Anyone could leave, for coercion would not bring the desired results.

As for Liu Zhaohui, he was hired by the Jiayang Film Company. Naturally, the management of the film company had to decide what to do with him next.

That same evening, the owner of the film company Jiayang Zhou Yi called Lu Chen again.

Honghua, through an intermediary, put forward the terms of “reconciliation.”

“Joining the share is a prerequisite…”

Zhou Yi’s voice on the phone seemed exhausted: “As for their shares, then everyone needs to get together and discuss. The mediator said not less than 35%. In this regard, Honghua will set up a new film company, which, as the shareholder, will join the filming and sales of the new film.”

At least 35% of the shares in the film are the last remnants of Lu Chen’s hope for resolution of the conflict disappeared without a trace!

All these criminal corporations were overly greedy. Even giving them 1% of the stock was extremely risky.

But Lu Chen still listened patiently to what Zhou Yi said next: “Besides, Honghua wants to decide for herself who to direct. and the producer, and the leading actors can be left.”

Well, that’s it, Lu Chen couldn’t listen to this anymore!

important members of the film crew were always the director and producer, sometimes these two positions could be combined in one person. Often the fate of the film depended on the director and producer.

And Honghua not only wanted to join the share, but also remove the director and producer. It was like entrusting the fate of China Ghost Story to this criminal corporation.

How could Lu Chen agree to such a step?

“Director Zhou, don’t tell me further, I won’t agree with any of their terms! If they continue to poke sticks in the wheels, I will fight them to the end!”

Lu Chen’s response was determined and confident and could not bear doubts.

This meant that he would never lower his head and give up!

For Zhou Yi, this was not a surprise at all. In Lu Chen’s place, he would rather curtail filming than go to such disgusting conditions, otherwise it would be tantamount to kneeling down.

After a little thought, Zhou And still expressed his guess: “Young Mr. Lu, it seems to me their ultimate goal is not to get shares, but to drive you out of Hong Kong.”

Zhou Yi put himself in Honghua’s shoes… If he liked Chinese Ghost Story and wanted to own this film, then it would be worth causing trouble not now, but when most of the film is filmed.

By this time Lu Chen will spend a lot of money, it will be too late to retreat, as this will threaten with large losses. It is possible that in this case he would have to agree with the conditions set.

And now, when filming has just begun, what idiot will demand his share, and even his director and producer?

Therefore, Zhou Yi suspected that Honghua was committed to driving Lu Chen away!

Lu Chen felt there was some sense in Zhou Yi’s suggestion, and yet he wondered, “But what good is Honghua if I leave?”

Lu Chen came to Hong Kong to shoot a film. In theory, he could not have any conflict with the Honghua company, which is currently engaged in public catering. Moreover, he originally ordered food from this company.

Zhou Yi said: “I don’t know either, but I know that Jiang Chenghua is a very cunning person. He is not engaged in a business that can bring him losses, and he would not waste time and energy on things that would be disadvantageous for both parties. Therefore, I will continue to find out what is the matter, and you be on the lookout.”

After finishing the telephone conversation with Zhou Yi, Lu Chen thought a little and called Wan Yong.

So much has happened already. Although the film crew reported to the police and filed a complaint with the film studio, the safety of the film crew had to be ensured on their own, so in the evening Lu Chen asked Wan Yong to personally stay on the set and look after the equipment.

After briefly explaining everything to Wan Yong, Lu Chen went to rest.

Early the next morning, he was woken up every now and then by the phone ringing.

Opening his eyes, Lu Chen immediately rolled over on his other side, groped the landline phone on the bedside table and raised the receiver to his ear.

“Hello?”

Wan Yong’s excited voice came from the tube:” Young Master Lu, we’ve captured two intruders!”

What?

Lu Chen finally woke up.
