Chapter 471 All doubts vanished
Chapter 471 All doubts vanished
The dream goddess of many middle-aged men in Hong Kong would actually pursue silly old Fan?
He had no idea what she was trying to do, and Fan Wumian didn't believe everything she said.
at first.
He also guessed that Liz had reached middle age and his career was starting to go downhill. He might have encountered some difficulties and needed his help, so he started from Silly Old Fan and hooked his old man into a black carp.
But this doesn't seem to make sense either.
With Liz's looks and figure, plus the aura of a female star, as long as she is a little more enthusiastic and proactive, it would not be difficult for her to marry a small wealthy man outside the circle with a net worth of hundreds of millions. There is no need for her to be so compromising.
Wait until Silly Old Fan goes to the bathroom.
Uncle Da finally seized the opportunity to tell the truth, with a charming smile on his face, and said to Fan Wumian:
"I'm really impressed by your father. He has been sending Liz a bouquet of flowers every day recently. He's been pursuing her so vigorously. He mentions Miss Li eight hundred times when he drinks. My ears are almost callused by him."
"Mr. Fan, please do me a favor and quickly arrange some roles for Liz so that your father can stand out in front of Miss Li. He always runs to Causeway Bay after playing mahjong to escort Miss Li home after get off work. When people are a little polite to him during filming, your father seems to be serious."
"Alas, I thought only young men would pursue women relentlessly. If I continue like this, I will soon be discovered by the paparazzi. Then it will become a sensational news, and it will be embarrassing for you, Mr. Fan."
"Oh~~~ That's right!"
All doubts disappeared in an instant, and Fan Wumian felt that everything made sense.
With Silly Old Fan's charm, at most he can deceive middle-aged women outside the circle, and newcomers hoping to get a chance to stand out, or find a "sugar daddy" to support his little girl.
How could a female star like Liz, who has seen the world and was once pursued by Li Jiaxin's super-rich husband, fall so easily at the hands of silly old Fan?
It is worth mentioning that.
Li Jiaxin's super-rich husband is from a "billionaire family" and also owns a luxury house on Big Wave Bay Road, with house number 10, which is very close to the house at No. 13 that Zuo Ziyan's family has their eyes on.
Even though Silly Old Fan is his cheap dad, Fan Wumian still feels from the bottom of his heart that Liz is a perfect match for him.
It mainly refers to aspects such as appearance, fame and personality. In terms of family strength, now Silly Old Fan has soared to fame thanks to Fan Wumian.
For example, the "Trident" which is currently being prepared and waiting to start filming, it is rumored that Fan Wumian specially invited Uncle Da and Huang Zihua to play supporting roles for him in order to promote the silly old Fan. These resources are good enough to make his peers envious.
Uncle Da likes to drink and play mahjong, and Silly Old Fan has the same hobbies as him, so they can get along well.
Out of consideration for Fan Wumian, and also because they needed to film "Trident" together, after finishing "Detective Chinatown", Uncle Da took the initiative to invite Silly Old Fan to have a few meals with him, and they often played mahjong, and the two became friends after a few interactions.
Uncle Da knows more about Silly Old Fan's current situation than Fan Wumian, and what comes out of his mouth is much more credible than Silly Old Fan's self-boasting.
If he really finds himself a "stepmother", Fan Wumian doesn't want to meet some questionable woman and make the situation in his family even more chaotic.
Especially a divorced woman with children, or a green tea girl who wants to give Fan Wumian a brother or sister, it is easy for them to have evil thoughts of competing for wealth.
However, Fan Wumian's assets and Silly Old Fan's assets were divided cleanly from the beginning, so there was actually nothing to be afraid of.
Apart from the small apartment in the Arc de Triomphe in Hong Kong City and the Moutai shares invested with the proceeds from the sale of the house, no one else could snatch any property from him. He had already made several reservations to prevent silly old Fan from making trouble again.
On the other hand, Liz has been in the industry for many years and has had almost no negative news in recent years. She seems like the kind of woman who can live a stable life.
then.
While searching for news about Liz on his phone, Fan Wumian asked in a low voice:
"Does Liz have a good impression of my dad, or is it just my dad's wishful thinking?" Uncle Da thought for a moment and said with a smile:
"I've been around for so many years, and I'm pretty good at judging people. Miss Li agreed to let your dad take her home, and they occasionally have meals and tea together. It seems that she doesn't dislike it, but she doesn't like it too much either."
"I'm afraid you may need to help me with this. If you create more opportunities for them to get along, maybe Miss Li can really become your stepmother in the future. I think your father is serious this time."
"Being a star in Hong Kong doesn't make much money. I've filmed dozens of movies, but I still live a tight life, not to mention third- and fourth-tier stars like her, who only make a few hundred thousand a year at best. Sometimes they can't get any roles for two or three years in a row, and they have no food to eat. No wonder she focused on her brother's skin care center and started trying to learn how to run a business herself."
Something suddenly occurred to me.
Uncle Da said:
"Also, I told your father a long time ago that money doesn't matter. The most important thing is sincerity. Miss Li is very reliable. Some years ago, someone wanted to give her a yacht and named it after her English name, but she refused it in the end. Most women can't do this."
Having been in the circle for so many years, Uncle Da knows countless gossips about Hong Kong entertainment.
The fact that he praised her as "reliable" shows that Liz's character and personality are indeed good. It is very difficult for female celebrities to make a name for themselves in the Hong Kong entertainment circle and stay clean. The water in this big dye vat is much more turbid than that in the mainland.
Finished checking the news on the phone.
Only then did Fan Wumian discover that Liz had a good family background. His grandfather was the "Father of Movies" in Hong Kong, his grandmother was the first generation star in Hong Kong, and many of his relatives and friends were also well-known actors in the Hong Kong entertainment industry.
Although she started from a high point, when Liz was 14 years old, her grandmother passed away and her uncles and aunts forcibly divided the family property. Her father had to work as a handyman in a gym due to illness, and her mother became a truck driver.
Ritz himself has been in the entertainment industry since he was a teenager. In 1985, he unexpectedly became famous because of "Happy Ghost Summer Vacation". He then signed a contract with the producer of this film and became a formal actor.
With her conditions, if she could find someone to hold on to, how could she have endured more than 20 years of hardship without any success? Moreover, she has rejected numerous opportunities to marry into a wealthy family, so it seems that she is really reliable.
It's a rare thought that I would help silly Old Fan and give him some assists.
Fan Wumian said to Uncle Da:
"I originally wanted to find some actresses from the mainland to work with you in the filming of Trident. Uncle Da, what do you think about letting Liz play my dad's girlfriend in the movie? Take the opportunity to create more opportunities for him to have contact with her. If this doesn't work, then I can't help. I can't just knock her out with a stick and carry her home."
Uncle Da snapped his fingers:
"Good idea! I can help you then. Your dad mentioned before that he wants your agency to sign Liz. She is currently signed to TBV TV station and has trouble supporting herself."
TBV TV station has more than 400 actors and actresses in total. Although it shoots a lot of programs every year, the cost is spread out to each person. Unless they can find other ways to make money, it is difficult to get rich by filming.
Fan Wumian nodded and said:
"It just so happens that I want to take some time to visit Uncle Six and talk about some business matters. I'll see if I can get her contract then."
Uncle Da said with a firm tone:
"Of course there's no problem. She's not a big star. TBV has too many employees and they must have wanted to fire a bunch of them a long time ago. This would save money on wages and prevent fierce competition that would make everyone complain and have a hard time."
"It's different working under you, Mr. Fan. Newcomers like Miss Zhuang can get paid tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars for each movie. There are so many dramas that we can't take them all."
"I heard that you worked with Andy and tailored a Hollywood movie for him? I have been in the industry for so many years and have filmed more than a hundred movies, but I have never been in the limelight in Hollywood."
Looking up at Uncle Da, Fan Wumian said happily:
"There's a master craftsman who's good at making counterfeit money in the script, but I haven't found the right actor yet. I was thinking of looking for one in Hollywood, but some first- and second-tier big-name stars with box office appeal are paid hundreds of millions of dollars. The offer is too expensive. How about letting Uncle Da try? The English lines can be dubbed, as long as the lip movements match up."
Uncle Da grabbed his hand and laughed:
"I've been waiting for you to say this! I can't be the lead actor, but I think I've been a supporting actor for Andy Lau more than a dozen times, including God of Gamblers, Tricky Brains, A Moment of Romance, Inspector Lei Luo, The Dragon Prince, The Twins, and Dances with the Dragon."
".so much."
Fan Wumian smacked his lips and said:
"It's a pity that I don't have enough money, otherwise I could buy more online copyrights of Hong Kong movies and make some money."
