Chapter 26

The authoritative Hong Kong feng shui magazine, *Great Feng Shui*, dedicated a special edition to a detailed report on the feng shui of the Ming Pao Building on the second day, and the story of the Golden Toad spouting a spring was also dug up by the relentless journalists.

At the end of the article, *Great Feng Shui* also evaluated the Four Treasures of the Study feng shui array!

Refined, perfect!

*Great Feng Shui* is known for its professional and rigorous attitude, with each article having high academic value, exerting significant influence in the feng shui circles of Hong Kong and Taiwan. Not only do feng shui masters enjoy subscribing, but many wealthy individuals and the public are also its loyal readers.

Due to the influence of *Great Feng Shui*, many feng shui enthusiasts in Hong Kong and Taiwan, as well as feng shui masters still in the learning stage, would visit the Ming Pao Building during their free time to observe and learn!

Some people even spotted many famous masters in the crowd!

For a newly practicing feng shui master, Su Minfeng was fortunate to be able to independently handle a case like the Ming Pao Building.

To earn this fortune, Su Minfeng put a lot of effort into the site selection, orientation, and layout of the Ming Pao Building!

He had internal resistance and hostility towards the idea of Wang Zhong re-layouting the feng shui of the Ming Pao Building!

On the day *Great Feng Shui* was published, Su Minfeng brought his San Yuan Luo Pan and angrily drove to the Ming Pao Building.

But after seeing the overall layout of the Ming Pao Building,

Su Minfeng had to admit, he was impressed, very impressed!

Refined, perfect!

A few days later, Lin Wuzhang from Taiwan appeared alone at the Ming Pao Building. Lin Wuzhang had been famous for a long time, and his broad perspective was naturally not comparable to the young Su Minfeng. Even so, Lin Wuzhang could not help but praise the overall layout as perfect!

After using his unique method to manage the qi, the admiration in Lin Wuzhang's eyes grew even stronger!

The placement of Wang Zhong's Golden Toad was absolutely a stroke of genius!

Sitting in the center, overseeing all directions!

Lin Wuzhang's eyes emitted a burning heat; Wang Zhong's feng shui skills were far beyond his imagination!

Lin Wuzhang had an impulse to meet Wang Zhong in person!

But thinking about the *Young Master Dragon* box office incident, Lin Wuzhang's steps stopped.

Due to the influence of *Great Feng Shui*, several tycoons invited Wang Zhong to examine their feng shui, but all were politely declined by Rulan, who said that Master Wang was very busy and the appointments were already booked for half a year later.

Not only were the tycoons not angry, but another dozen tycoons made advance reservations.

And now, Master Wang Zhong, who should be very busy, was enjoying the charming sunshine on the Caribbean beach, living a sweet life with Rulan.

"Isn't this a bit inappropriate?"

Rulan looked at Wang Zhong with some guilt.

"No problem, they don't know we're on vacation. They must think we're examining feng shui somewhere else. If they want me to examine their feng shui, they should be prepared to wait in line for one or two years!"

Wang Zhong was not at all worried, looking very confident.

Ding Ling Ling!

Rulan's office phone rang. After answering, her eyes widened, and her breathing quickened.

"Mr. Li Chao Ren, the chairman of Cheung Kong Holdings, has invited you to examine the feng shui in Australia. Should he also make a reservation?"

Rulan looked at Wang Zhong with a teasing smile.

"No need for that!"

Wang Zhong said somewhat awkwardly. Hunger marketing is a very effective marketing strategy, but it depends on the target!

"Boss, the film *Young Master Dragon* starring Jackie Chan is about to premiere, and Cinema City has sent an invitation!"

Back in Hong Kong, Rulan, who had returned to work, regained her usual calm and professionalism.

"Get ready, we'll all go to the movie tonight!"

Wang Zhong typed the last word on the keyboard, turned his slightly sore neck, and said with a smile.

"Do you have that much confidence in *Young Master Dragon*?"

Rulan asked curiously.

"This is a bet where I already know the outcome!"

Wang Zhong said with a smile.

...

The premiere of *Young Master Dragon* was grand, with all the main cast members present, and the film tycoon Mr. Run Run Shaw also attended.

Of course, there were also the journalists with their cameras!

The original creators and main actors were all energized.

The cast members straightened their clothes ten times in half an hour, and if it weren't for the scolding from Big Eye, Jackie Chan's tuxedo might have been retired early!

Wang Zhong wore a black tuxedo, and Rulan wore a white dress.

Together, they looked handsome and beautiful. Moreover, Wang Zhong was a very controversial figure, and from the moment they got out of the car to the cinema, they had taken countless photos!

"Mr. Wang, thank you for taking the time to attend the premiere of *Young Master Dragon*!"

Mr. Run Run Shaw personally escorted them inside.

"Of course! I have confidence in *Young Master Dragon*, and I am very much looking forward to that 20% of the box office!"

Wang Zhong shook hands with Mr. Run Run Shaw and said with a smile.

"I hope it will be as Mr. Wang said!"

Mr. Run Run Shaw's face also broke into a smile. If the box office really reached 10 million, after deducting Wang Zhong's 20%, Cinema City could make a huge profit of 8 million!

"It will definitely be!"

Wang Zhong nodded, speaking with certainty.

Wang Zhong, Rulan, and others were arranged in a special VIP section, which had the best view in the entire cinema.

Big Eye, Jackie Chan, and other main creators held a simple ceremony in front of the big screen, and *Young Master Dragon* officially began its premiere.

The plot of *Young Master Dragon* was not complicated. During the fall of the Qing Dynasty, the head eunuch took the opportunity to sell ancient artifacts to foreigners for a huge profit. This was strongly opposed by the deputy head eunuch, Hai Huo, and they parted ways in anger. Long, the son of a wealthy family in Longshan Town, was highly skilled in martial arts. One day, while traveling with friends, he accidentally entered the place where Cheng hid his treasures. Fortunately, he was saved by Mr. Wang, avoiding death. Meanwhile, Hai Huo took the opportunity to steal several treasures, and Cheng, enraged, pursued Hai Huo everywhere.

During a visit to the Yue Wang Temple, Long encountered several of Cheng's men trying to capture Hai Huo. Long stood up to save him, and Cheng's men, seeing the anger of the crowd, left reluctantly. Cheng knew that Long had hidden Hai Huo at Mr. Wang's house and suspected a conspiracy, ordering the killing of Hai Huo and Mr. Wang. Long fought a life-and-death battle to save them, and together they defeated Cheng.

The 90-minute film ended quickly, and Jackie Chan and the main creators went on stage to thank the audience.

However, the emotions of the film critics, journalists, and audience were not high, and only sparse applause could be heard.

"The plot is too bad!"

"Exactly, Jackie Chan's performance is not up to par, another bad movie!"

"Bad movie, take it off, take it off!"

Various comments made the faces of Jackie Chan and the main creators lose their luster, and there was also concern about a box office flop!

Mr. Run Run Shaw's face also turned sour, not only because it was a Cinema City production, but also because he personally supervised it!

This work, which had cost Mr. Run Run Shaw a lot of effort, being criticized in front of everyone, it was no wonder his face turned sour.

Rulan's hand tightly gripped Wang Zhong's arm, and due to excessive tension, her hand was slightly trembling.

"Don't be nervous, don't be nervous! This is all within my expectations!"

Wang Zhong gently patted Rulan's back, trying to calm her down.

"I don't have Mr. Wang's good attitude; Mr. Wang is the loser in this big bet!"

Mr. Run Run Shaw looked at Wang Zhong coldly, his face full of displeasure.

"Just now, the most professional team at Cinema City predicted the box office for *Young Master Dragon* to be 2 million! Although it's not bad, it's far from Mr. Wang's prediction."

"There's still the overseas box office, the outcome is still uncertain!"

Wang Zhong said indifferently. In Jackie Chan's autobiography *Who Am I*, he frankly admitted that the Hong Kong box office for *Young Master Dragon* was not good, but it unexpectedly became popular in the Japanese market. Because of the bet between Wang Zhong and Cinema City, the attention to *Young Master Dragon* greatly increased, and the 2 million box office made Wang Zhong feel pleasantly surprised.

"Mr. Wang, according to past trends, the overseas box office is usually only about half of the local box office, so the total box office for *Young Master Dragon* should be around 3 million."

Big Eye, standing behind Mr. Run Run Shaw, interjected.

"You said that's the usual trend, *Young Master Dragon* is an exception!"

Wang Zhong said indifferently.

"Let's wait and see!"

Mr. Run Run Shaw suddenly felt a sense of frustration. He found Wang Zhong too difficult to communicate with. In popular terms, he was the type who stubbornly clung to his beliefs.

"The world is full of miracles, at least I always believe so. You haven't encountered a miracle because you don't firmly believe in its existence!"

Wang Zhong looked at Mr. Run Run Shaw and Big Eye, speaking seriously.

"Here's a free piece of advice: when Japan buys the rights to *Young Master Dragon*, you should drive a hard bargain!"

Wang Zhong looked at the back of Mr. Run Run Shaw's head and said loudly.

Mr. Run Run Shaw, who was walking forward, stumbled. With the Hong Kong box office suffering a setback, he still wanted to drive a hard bargain with overseas distributors. This Wang Zhong was truly charmingly stubborn!

"If you don't listen to me, you'll regret it!"

Wang Zhong said somewhat helplessly.
