It wasn't May yet in Hong Kong, but it was already very hot. Kang Chunhu was fanning himself with a script board. Although he didn't feel hot at all, it was very comfortable, especially when he saw the others sweating from the heat…
"Cut, it's too much." After Mecca shouted the last shot, he confirmed with the cameraman that there was no problem with the shooting. Then, he stood up and shouted to everyone in the crew,"I hereby announce that 'Salted Fish Revival' has been wrapped up. When we return to the city later, everyone will go to the wrap up banquet.”
Everyone in the production team cheered happily when they heard this. The last time they filmed " Crazy Old Cheater ", they didn't have a wrap party. At that time, Mecca and the others hadn't earned a single cent, so they naturally saved as much as they could. Now that Mecca and the others were full of confidence, they were naturally much more generous.
Because there was a big meal to eat, everyone in the production team quickly packed up. Finally, Huang Baiming escorted the equipment cart to return the rented equipment. The others went to the restaurant first under the lead of Mecca.
Mecca's small company only had three employees including the boss, Mecca, Ishida, and Huang Baiming, let alone their own props and cameras. Therefore, they rented all the equipment from Golden Princess. The rental fee for the cameras and other equipment was quite high, so it was better to return them as soon as possible.
The two vans and Mecca's own car were parked at the Bai Wei Wang Restaurant near the Tian Hou Temple on the main road of Hong Kong.
When Mecca and his group entered the restaurant, the people inside were shocked. They thought that the gang had come to cause trouble. Fortunately, Mecca and his group had already booked a table. Moreover, Ishida knew the boss here. The boss came forward to explain a few words and the other customers were relieved.
Mecca and the others came to the big private room that had been booked beforehand. As the investor, Chunhu Kang naturally sat at the main table with Mecca and the others.
As the dishes were served, glasses of wine were filled. First, Mecca thanked everyone and drank the first glass of wine. Then, it was time to eat. As the glasses of wine were drunk, the atmosphere became more and more lively.
This was the first time Chunhu Kang had eaten with so many people since he came to this world. Looking at all the people who had drunk too much and were making a fool of themselves, Chunhu Kang was not used to it.
At the main table where Kang Chunhu was sitting, Kang Chunhu found that the most forthright person was Hong Jinbao, who was worthy of being the future big brother. The most cunning person was Mai Jia, and the most capable person was Zeng Zhiwei, who was the most inconspicuous.
Chunhu Kang thought to himself, No wonder Zeng Zhiwei could film for both Jiahe and Princess Jin in the Hong Kong film industry in the future.
One had to know that when New Arts City rose and Shao Group did not fall behind, Jiahe's biggest enemy was Princess Jin, who controlled New Arts City. Zeng Zhiwei was able to not offend either of the two families and even curry favor with them. This required skill.
Huang Baiming, who came later, seemed honest to Chunhu Kang. However, he knew the future, so he thought Huang Baiming was reserved. Huang Baiming was the one who supported them in the last few years of New Arts City. At that time, Mecca and Ishida were not doing their jobs properly…
After dinner, it was just eight o'clock. Mecca suggested to go to the bar for a drink first, and then go to the Celestial Palace nightclub to play. Zeng Zhiwei clapped his hands and agreed. Hong Jinbao thought about it and agreed. Finally, only Kang Chunhu was left at the main table. Kang Chunhu saw that he couldn't be too unsociable, and he hadn't been to the bar in the 80s, so he agreed.
In the end, the eight of them split into two cars and headed straight for Tsimshatsui in Jiu Long.
Although there was already a famous street called Lan Gui Fong in the future, Lan Gui Fong was still mainly used for dining. It was not until 1981 that the " father of Lan Gui Fong " Sheng Zhi Wen started the establishment of the later Lan Gui Fong bar area.
When they arrived at Tsimshatsui, Zeng Zhiwei led them to a bar called " Lover." According to Zeng Zhiwei, this bar was often visited by beautiful women, and many of them were female celebrities.
The eight of them found a booth and ordered a bunch of drinks.
While drinking, Kang Chunhu didn't say much and listened to them talk nonsense. However, he could also hear many secrets that Kang Chunhu didn't know.
He drank until almost 10 o'clock. Kang Chunhu drank the most because no matter who asked him to drink, he would finish it in one gulp. This made the people present have a good impression of him.
Among the eight people who were drinking, except for Kang Chunhu, Mecca was the most sober. He looked at his watch and it was almost 10 o'clock. He called everyone to go to the Celestial Palace Nightclub, but this time, Ma Ma refused to go. Kang Chunhu also took the opportunity to say that he had something to do and would not go. The other five people were a little drunk, and Mecca did not force them.
In the end, the seven of them walked out of the bar together, while Chunhu Kang stayed behind with the excuse of going to the toilet.
Kang Chunhu didn't really want to go to the toilet, but he saw a woman, a 40-year-old woman who could still act as a young girl…
When Chunhu Kang came out of the bathroom, Mecca and the others were long gone. The woman that Chunhu Kang found was sitting on the counter. She looked a little drunk, but she kept asking the waiter for wine.
Chunhu Kang found a table near the beauty and ordered a bottle of beer and snacks. Chunhu Kang's seat was diagonally facing the beauty, so he could look at the beauty openly.
"Ah!"
Chunhu Kang's attention was suddenly interrupted by a low shout. He turned his head and saw two young men in suits blocking the waiter who was about to serve the drunk woman.
It was a little noisy at the scene. Kang Chunhu could roughly hear a few words: " Money…forever…without you…"
Just by looking at the few words that they had heard from the waiter, Kang Chunhu guessed that something bad was going to happen. Otherwise, he saw one of the young men take out a bag of things from his pocket and put it into the wine. Then, he stirred it with the straw beside the wine glass.
Chunhu Kang watched quietly from the side. This made him think of the plot in a fantasy novel. Was it his turn to be the hero saving the damsel in distress?
As Chunhu Kang watched, his imagination started to run wild. He thought to himself that as expected, all protagonists should have romantic encounters!
The waiter brought the wine to the drunk beauty. Before the waiter could put it down, the beauty snatched it over and drank half of it. When the waiter put down the remaining two glasses, the drunk beauty had already drunk one glass.
After the drunk beauty finished a cup of wine with added ingredients, her already flushed face turned red, and her eyes, which were still conscious, became more and more unfocused.
Even so, the beauty still mechanically drank the second glass of wine. After drinking the second glass, she was about to reach for the third glass when she suddenly leaned on the table. From Chunhu Kang's angle, he could see that the beauty's small mouth was still opening and closing as if she was saying something.
At this moment, the two young men that Kang Chunhu had been paying attention to stood up and walked towards the drunk beauty. As they walked, one of them was even proudly showing off to the people beside him.
The two of them happened to pass by Chunhu Kang. Chunhu Kang overheard the man's words,"... Dali pill, my Japanese classmate said that in Japan, he just..."
Although he had only heard this much, Kang Chunhu knew what was going on. These two young men had poisoned the drunk beauty's wine.
The "Great Strength Pill" that the young man mentioned was actually Penang poison. In the mid-1970s, Japanese drug dealers replaced sulfuric acid with sulfuric acid for solid processing, inadvertently creating a crystal like ice. This type of solid methylephetamines was commonly known as betachets. Because of the reaction of taking this betachets, Hong Kong and Taiwan regions jokingly called it "Great Strength Pill." (No, it's poison. You can't send the correct word.)
After the two of them walked past Chunhu Kang, he picked up the beer on the table and drank it in one gulp.
After drinking, Chunhu Kang tidied his clothes with his hands. This was what Chunhu Kang learned from movies. In movies, before the main character went to fight the bad guys, he had to grab the lapel line of his clothes with both hands and tidy his clothes. Chunhu Kang was purely an otaku!
The two young men sat on both sides of the drunken beauty's table. As soon as they sat down, they said,"Miss, how did you…"
Before they could finish their sentence, they felt someone standing behind the drunk beauty. Just as they were about to look up to see who it was, they felt a hand grab the back of their necks. Then, they lost consciousness.
