Chapter 172: Butterfly Effect (Please subscribe)

"For this matter, you just need to contact Siam!"

In the evening, when Jiang Tiansheng returned to his residence, Wu Feng told him about the matter.

Jiang Tiansheng waved his hand and said: "Right now, my mind is entirely on the amateur football match!"

Speaking of this, an excited expression appeared on his face involuntarily.

There was no other reason; through this amateur football match, he had gotten to know the senior management of the Hong Kong Football Association, as well as physical education teachers from universities, and most importantly, the Sai Kung Police Station Chief.

Let's not mention the university PE teachers for now; the senior management of the Football Association was not simple.

One must know that the current President of the Hong Kong Football Association was the famous tycoon Huo Daheng.

Even with Jiang Tiansheng's influence, wanting to befriend Huo Daheng depended on luck and opportunity.

At this moment, he was on quite good terms with the senior management sent by the Football Association.

Although they couldn't directly help introduce him to Huo Daheng, the other party had made it very clear: if the amateur football match organized by Hong Hing could continue to be popular, there would be a great chance in the future.

This gave Jiang Tiansheng great hope, and his motivation to work on the matches became even stronger.

As for the senior management of the Sai Kung Police, those who understood, understood; there was no need to go into detail.

Jiang Tiansheng felt that this trip to Sai Kung had been very rewarding, and his attitude toward Wu Feng, the initiator, was naturally very warm.

"Mr. Jiang, the profit in this is not small!"

Wu Feng reminded him: "Things like radios and electric fans, although they can't compare to fast-moving consumer goods like clothes and shoes, the market is vast!"

"Haha, you can rest assured about that!"

Jiang Tiansheng said happily: "In fact, I have already reached a tacit understanding with Siam; the share that belongs to me won't be a cent less, you can rest assured about that!"

Wu Feng nodded to show he understood and had no intention of probing into the transactions between the brothers Jiang Tiansheng and Jiang Tianyang.

As long as the brothers didn't think he was sowing discord, everything else was easy to talk about.

The next morning, after his daily workout, he called Jiang Tianyang.

"Oh, is that so? I'll have to send someone to investigate!"

Through the receiver came Jiang Tianyang's hearty laughter; after hearing Wu Feng's introduction, he became interested.

He didn't express his stance directly, but explicitly stated he would let his underlings verify the situation.

Clearly, this person was not as carefree as he appeared on the surface and had quite a methodical way of doing things.

Wu Feng naturally had no objections!

After all, he would only trust the situation investigated by Jiang Tianyang's men.

Once the business was finished, Jiang Tianyang directly invited Wu Feng to visit Siam as a guest over the phone.

Wu Feng didn't rush to agree, but indicated that when the first batch of goods went over, he would go along with it.

"Then at that time, I must entertain you well!"

Jiang Tianyang laughed heartily and said straightforwardly: "I will definitely make you feel the unique characteristics of Siam!"

"Then many thanks to Little Mr. Jiang!"

Wu Feng had a feeling of chill; he had no interest in the unique characteristics of Siam.

After hanging up the phone, he couldn't help but sigh: sure enough, different environments created different personalities.

Truth be told, Jiang Tianyang was a notch stronger than Jiang Tiansheng in terms of both ability and vision.

This was caused by environment and experience; it was a very normal thing!

No matter how much Hong Kong boasted, at this time it was just a colony of Great Britain, an international metropolis that had developed well, but in fact, Chinese people were suppressed everywhere.

And no matter how inconspicuous Siam was, it was still a "little strongman" of the Indochina Peninsula.

Jiang Tianyang had made a name for himself in the capital of Siam, so he would naturally be influenced.

The difference between having national support and not having national support was quite significant.

Not to mention anything else, Wu Feng had exchanged with Zou Wenhuai several times and clearly noticed that this guy's confidence when facing the "ghosts" (foreigners) was not just a little weak; it reached a level Wu Feng couldn't understand.

Golden Harvest had a branch in the United States, but the head office had no right to interfere with the branch's business and practices!

When Cheng Shilong went to the United States to film, he couldn't get strong support from the branch at all!

Otherwise, as the main investor, how could the filming of "The Cannonball Run" and "The Big Brawl" bypass him, the core backbone of Golden Harvest?

The situation of Jiang Tiansheng and Jiang Tianyang was somewhat similar, although Jiang Tiansheng was not so soft when facing the "ghosts."

But in terms of international vision and confidence, Jiang Tianyang was a notch more formidable.

In the movie, by the year 2000, Jiang Tianyang voluntarily gave up the position of Hong Hing Dragon Head to Chen Haonan.

He himself hid behind the scenes; this move alone was quite remarkable!

Of course, in fact, Jiang Tiansheng's personality was indeed more suitable for managing Hong Hing in Hong Kong.

Because Jiang Tiansheng had to preside over the amateur football match in Sai Kung, Wu Feng naturally couldn't leave.

He stayed there until the Lunar New Year was almost over and the amateur football match had completely concluded.

When he left, everyone had smiles on their faces.

Speaking of which, this amateur football match was quite successful, both in terms of influence and the TV station's ratings.

If it hadn't been too rushed, the advertising revenue alone would have earned quite a bit!

But even so, the local residents of Sai Kung earned quite a bit by doing small businesses around the two middle school football pitches during the match times.

There were even residents from other parts of Hong Kong who specifically took cars to watch the matches when they were free.

This time, Sai Kung had also shown its face in a big way!

Li Saifeng and Weng Hong both had work to attend to and left before the 15th day of the first lunar month.

There were other female stars from the company who wanted to come, but they were sternly refused by Wu Feng.

By the time he returned to the Shanghai Street base, the first lunar month had already passed.

As expected, "Good Luck," filmed by Qiankun Film and Television Company before the festival, was released during the Spring Festival and the first lunar month, taking a total box office of over 20 million.

Jing Kun was quite happy and held a banquet at a large hotel to celebrate.

Not only did Wu Feng receive an invitation, but many stars from Fengrui Film and Television Company also received invitations.

When Wu Feng arrived at the celebration hotel, he was surprised by the lively scene there.

Not only were there stars from Qiankun Film and Television and Fengrui Film and Television, but many male and female stars from other companies also came to show their support, and for a moment, it actually had the air of being star-studded.

He even saw Guan Jiahui and Zhong Chuhong, two top-tier big stars.

Jing Kun, this guy, was currently chatting and laughing with Huang Baiming in the center of the hall, surrounded by a circle of film company bosses or general managers.

This guy had truly risen up.

Li Saifeng and Weng Hong surrounded Wu Feng on the left and right, walking around by his side.

Seeing this scene, the female stars who originally had some thoughts and ideas could only temporarily extinguish them.

Not long after, Hong Xinbao and Cheng Shilong also arrived, making the scene even more lively and noisy.

These two walked directly up to Wu Feng, ignoring Li Saifeng and Weng Hong, greeted him with smiles, but didn't rush to leave.

"Why, do you two have something?"

Wu Feng asked directly: "If you have something, be direct; otherwise, I'm afraid there won't be any free time later!"

As he spoke, he gestured toward Jing Kun, who was basking in infinite glory in the center of the hall.

"Mr. Wu, my senior brother wants to consult about game development!"

Cheng Shilong took the initiative to speak and said directly: "Arcade games are too popular, and my senior brother has filmed many movies, most of which are kung fu films; there should be quite a bit of potential for adaptation, right?"

At this time, Hong Xinbao followed up: "Please give us some guidance, Mr. Wu!"

"How about handing over the game development rights to Fengmang Game Company?"

Wu Feng was not polite at all and said with a smile: "Some of Mr. Hong's movies are indeed very suitable for adaptation into games, but the content needs a certain degree of adaptation!"

"No problem!"

Hong Xinbao agreed without thinking: "I wonder which movie Mr. Wu has his eye on?"

"The 'Thunderbolt' series!"

Wu Feng said bluntly: "In fact, the content of a single movie is really too little!"

"Does Mr. Wu mean that series movies are easier to adapt?"

Hong Xinbao was thoughtful: "Then what about the 'Five Lucky Stars' series?"

"That's also possible!"

Wu Feng said with a smile: "But there must be a clear main storyline; to be honest, the arrangement of the movies, in my opinion, is a bit too childish!"

Hong Xinbao was quite embarrassed but didn't know how to refute.

If one really wanted to probe, the plot of the "Five Lucky Stars" series indeed couldn't stand up to scrutiny, with too many flaws and unreasonable points; this was something that couldn't be helped.

The "Five Lucky Stars" series naturally counted as action films, but they also had a large number of comedic segments; one couldn't just call them comedic action films, that would be truly funny.

In this regard, Cheng Shilong's movies were much better.

There was always only one main storyline, and then it was just fighting, fighting, fighting, while the comedic segments were just embellishments.

"Then it's settled!"

Cheng Shilong was loyal enough and smiled to smooth things over: "Speaking of which, the arcade motherboard for 'Dragon Brother Tiger Brother' is almost finished; at that time, Mr. Wu must help critique it!"

"So fast?"

Wu Feng was a bit surprised and nodded: "Rest assured, I hope 'Dragon Brother Tiger Brother' sells well!"

This was really not a perfunctory remark, but his true thoughts at the moment.

In fact, Fengmang Game Company had also called him earlier to tell him a piece of good news: the arcade motherboard for the second part of "A Better Tomorrow" was also almost finished.

Unknowingly, Hong Kong's game development companies had become quite adept at developing action and gunfight series arcade motherboards, and could even be said to be at the forefront of the world.

If one really wanted to say it, this was the result of Wu Feng's forced intervention.

Whether it was the new company founded by the former boss of VTech, or Fengmang Game Company founded by Wu Feng with the R&D director of VTech as the core, they were already experienced veterans in the production of arcade motherboards.

This was the benefit of actively participating in the early stages of the arcade game explosion.

Even top-tier game production companies in Japan couldn't dare say they were definitely stronger than their Hong Kong counterparts in the production level of action and gunfight game motherboards.

Sometimes, things were just this incredible.

Wu Feng's active participation not only brought Hong Kong's arcade game motherboard R&D capability to a world-class level, but also opened up many joints in subsequent sales.
