Who is it?
Chan Kong-sang responded from inside the house.
Hearing that Chan Kong-sang was indeed inside, Uncle Wong was secretly pleased.
I'm so happy for this brat. His luck has turned around, and there's no stopping it. Even a prominent figure in Hong Kong like Xiao Linsheng has come to his door in person.
"Hong Kong student! Hong Kong student! Open the door! Someone important is looking for you! Kobayashi student! It's Kobayashi student who's here to see you!"
Uncle Huang knocked on the door again and shouted loudly inside, even revealing Xiao Linsheng's identity.
Inside the house, Chan Kong-sang, who had just flown back from Australia looking disheveled and had been cooped up in his cramped little house for several days, was finally able to fall asleep when he was abruptly woken up by Uncle Wong.
Suddenly, a nameless rage surged up within him.
However, Uncle Huang took great care of him daily, so he could only irritably cover his head with a pillow and mutter to himself:
"Uncle Huang! Stop messing with me! Xiao Linsheng? Xiao Linsheng is a tycoon! How would he know me? And come here in person? Are you dreaming!"
He didn't believe it at all.
He assumed it was just another joke from his kind-hearted neighbor, Uncle Huang, or that he had misheard something.
What am I now?
A "box office poison" who was highly anticipated by Brother Lo Wei but whose films flopped one after another, leaving the company with a mountain of debt, even dragging down Lo Wei himself.
How could someone as wealthy as Xiao Linsheng, who stands at the top of Hong Kong Island, possibly lower himself to come all the way to Causeway Bay, a working-class area, to find an unknown nobody like Chen Gangsheng?
After Chen Gangsheng finished speaking, he felt a few seconds of silence outside the door.
He assumed that Uncle Huang had left sensibly, and breathed a sigh of relief, preparing to take another nap.
result……
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The knocking became even louder, as if they would keep knocking until the door was opened.
"Hong Kong student! Why would I lie to you! I'm telling you, it really is Xiao Lin! And he's with two beautiful girls! Open the door!"
Uncle Huang shouted even louder, still so confident.
As Chen Gangsheng listened, the persistent knocking only fueled his anger.
He suddenly jumped out of bed and hastily threw on a t-shirt.
Then, filled with resentment at being woken up, he abruptly pulled open the old wooden door.
"Uncle Huang! Please don't..."
The words Chan Kong-sang was about to complain were instantly choked back the moment he opened the door, as if an invisible hand had gripped his throat.
The light was dim in the narrow stairwell outside the door.
However, the few people standing at the door seemed to radiate an immense light.
Especially the young man at the head, who was tall and straight, wearing an expensive dark suit, with a handsome face and a faint smile on his lips.
His composed demeanor as someone in a position of authority was not diminished in the slightest, even as he stood in this humble alley.
In the entire island of Hong Kong, who else at this age has such charisma?
Even though Chan Kong-sang usually didn't spend much money on newspapers, he recognized the man at a glance.
The face that has appeared countless times in newspapers and on television is none other than Kobayashi Tenmo, the newly crowned tycoon of Hong Kong Island who stirs up the winds and waves of the entire island every day!
Beside him stood two stunningly beautiful women, each with a different air about them but equally radiant.
One was dignified and gentle, with a touch of aloof scholarly air between her brows; the other was bright and beautiful, with a sharp and capable look in her eyes.
Chan Kong-sang, who follows the Miss Hong Kong pageant, naturally recognized them as former Miss Hong Kong runner-up and second runner-up, now the heads of ATV, Ms. Lau Yu-meng and Ms. Lui Shui-yung!
boom!
Oh my god!
It's true!
This moment!
Chen Gangsheng felt as if a lit firecracker had been shoved into his head, instantly blasting his mind into a blank.
All the previous unpleasantness, irritability, and resentment vanished, leaving only utter shock and disbelief in his eyes.
In his eyes, he was just a struggling actor who couldn't even afford rent when he wasn't filming and often didn't know where his next meal would come from.
If it weren't for the help from Uncle Huang and his brothers, they would have starved to death on the roadside long ago.
How could a nobody like me, who would die on the roadside and not even cause a ripple, possibly have any dealings with a big shot like Kobayashi?
All of this feels like a dream.
"Young...Young Lin? Miss Liu...Miss Liu? Miss Lü...Miss Lü?"
Taking a deep breath and recognizing reality, Chan Kong-sang was extremely embarrassed.
His mouth was slightly open, his tongue seemed tied in knots, he was somewhat incoherent, his face was flushed, and he didn't know where to put his hands and feet.
Finally, he stammered out a few words: "You...you...really came...to find me?"
After saying these words, he subconsciously looked back at his messy little room, which contained only a bed and a table.
I felt embarrassed, awkward, and quite flustered.
Lin Huowang smiled and looked at Chen Gangsheng, whose hair was messy, who was casually dressed in a t-shirt and shorts, and who looked utterly astonished and bewildered. He extended his hand in a friendly manner and said:
"Mr. Chan Kong-sang? It's a pleasure to meet you. I'm Kobayashi Tenno. Yes! We came here specifically to see you. Would it be convenient for us to come inside and talk? Or, shall we find somewhere to sit?"
"Huh? Come...come in?"
Chan Kong-sang then seemed to wake from a dream, and looking at his truly unsightly "doghouse," his face turned even redder.
He frantically tried to tidy up, but the more he tried, the messier it became. He even found some offensive posters and magazines. He quickly covered up his embarrassment and said, "No... I'm sorry! The house is too messy... too small... Shall we go... go to the tea restaurant downstairs?"
