The stage was resplendent with gold and jade.
Soon, the Four Heavenly Kings made their appearance.
Today they will be guests, performing on stage with the finalists tonight.
The audience below the stage was filled with cheers and laughter.
Without exception, all those who were able to watch the game live were prominent figures in Hong Kong.
From media professionals to business tycoons, even members of the four major families were present.
However, of the four major families, only Guo Desheng, who was in power at that time, came.
The rest of the people who came were from the next generation.
There were countless young men present.
For those watching on television, this was a visual feast.
For these young men in Hong Kong, this was a grand event for hunting for women.
The young men all stared at the beauties on stage, some plotting how to win their favor, others waiting to see which beauty would take the initiative to express her affection for them.
Of course, there are also some who genuinely want to choose one to take home as their wife.
After all, since the Miss Hong Kong pageant was first held, it has become commonplace for Miss Hong Kong contestants to marry into wealthy families.
Many of the wives of Hong Kong tycoons came from the Miss Hong Kong pageant.
Chen Dong remained quite calm, after all, he wasn't that superficial.
The woman who can follow Chen Dong must not only have a beautiful face, but also have a certain taste and excellent character.
Zhou Huimin possesses all of these qualities.
In addition, Zhou Huimin's hard work and kindness made Chen Dong like her even more.
Therefore, Chen Dong didn't have any ulterior motives this time.
The people in the audience whispered among themselves, occasionally discussing the beauties on stage and offering their opinions.
Xiang Huaqiang glanced at Chen Dong from time to time, and only when he saw that there was nothing unusual happening on Chen Dong's side did he feel relieved.
At this moment, Xiang Huaqiang's subordinate bent down and whispered, "Boss, should we arrange for a few more people to sit next to Mr. Chen?"
This subordinate was very thoughtful, fearing that the people around would disturb Chen Dong.
However, he did not understand Chen Dong's personality.
Chen Dong is just reserved, not withdrawn.
Moreover, Chen Dong is happy to engage in normal social interactions in such situations.
Xiang Huaqiang was aware of this, so he shook his head and said, "Don't do that. Wolong alone is enough."
He had witnessed Zhuge Liang's skills firsthand.
Don't be fooled by the fact that Chen Dong only has Wolong by his side right now; if anyone dares to cause trouble, they're just asking for it.
His subordinate nodded and didn't bring it up again.
After the performance on stage ended, the Four Heavenly Kings and some of the main guests returned to the audience to continue enjoying this visual feast.
At this moment, Andy Lau and Chow Yun-fat walked over to Chan Tung's table together.
Seeing this, Chen Dong smiled and said, "Please have a seat, gentlemen."
"Mr. Chen, you're too kind. I was busy going on stage and couldn't come over to say hello. Thank you so much for taking care of me these past few days," Hua said with a smile, his eyes filled with gratitude.
Chen Dong chuckled and told Hua Zai not to take it to heart.
He had heard rumors that during Andy Lau's collaboration with Huaxia Star, there were some people in the industry who would occasionally cause him trouble.
Furthermore, they will also try to manipulate the pay, etc.
Since Andy Lau and Hua Xia Xing, those people have been much more peaceful.
After all, Xiang Huaqiang has always been very protective of his own.
After exchanging pleasantries, Chow Yun-fat and Andy Lau left.
Subsequently, film stars who had previously collaborated with Huaxia Star, such as Jackie Chan and Jet Li, were also included.
It can be said that almost all the popular actors in the audience came over to greet Chen Dong.
After exchanging greetings, everyone went about their own business.
This alone is enough to show how important Chen Dong is to them.
Soon after, Stephen Chow also arrived.
Chen Dong couldn't help but feel excited, and patted the chair next to him very warmly: "Mr. Zhou, please sit down."
Zhou Xingxing sat down, looking somewhat surprised, as if he was still a little unaccustomed to Chen Dong's enthusiasm.
At this moment, Vivian Chow spoke up: "Brother Dong, there are three movies currently being filmed, with Stephen Chow in the cast and also collaborating with our Huaxia Star. These three movies will be released one after another soon."
Upon hearing this, Chen Dong's face lit up with joy.
In 1990, Stephen Chow's "All for the Winner" topped the Hong Kong box office, making him an instant sensation.
At this time, it was Stephen Chow's first time acting in a comedy, and his nonsensical style had not yet truly taken shape.
However, in 1992, Stephen Chow's talent truly blossomed.
In 1992, Stephen Chow's nonsensical style led to five films that ranked among the top five at the Hong Kong box office!
What does this mean?
In other words, if Stephen Chow released a movie in 1992, it would become an instant hit!
Chen Dong squinted and recalled for a moment.
He recalled that "Justice, My Foot!" grossed 49.88 million at the box office.
"All's Well, Ends Well" grossed 48.99 million, "The Deer and the Cauldron" grossed 40.86 million, and "King of Beggars" grossed 37.41 million.
Even the lowest-grossing film, "The Dragon Cult," still earned a whopping 36.58 million.
He single-handedly generated over 200 million in box office revenue.
Stephen Chow is undoubtedly the king of the box office.
Now that Huaxia Star has also participated in the filming investment, it can naturally get a share of the profits.
Although this amount of money is nothing to Chen Dong, it is definitely a huge sum of money for Huaxia Star Film Company.
Stephen Chow has always been Chen Dong's idol, coupled with Chen Dong's understanding of the nonsensical style.
