Sunlight shines softly in the garden of Hong Kong's famous Chiu family villa, and the aged Mr. Chiu Shi-tsang reclines comfortably on a rattan chaise longue and enjoys the relaxing time.
A gentle breeze swept through his long sparse silver-white hair, adding a poetic touch to the garden.
Suddenly, Mr. Zhao's nightingale-like eyes slowly opened, and his gaze looked directly at the group of reporters gathered in front of him, and his voice was slightly hoarse but full of wisdom and asked: "You may not imagine, but in my youthful and vigorous years, I used to spend a good time with one or two or even three or four beautiful ladies in one day.
The scene suddenly fell silent, and everyone was speechless in shock by the bold and direct words.
Mr. Zhao still remained calm, with a calm smile on his face, as if he was used to the surprise and questioning of others: "At that time, I had to change 172 new girlfriends every year, which was like a 'hobby' for me.
"172?!" There was an uproar at the scene, and everyone was deeply shocked by this jaw-dropping number.
Seeing everyone's stunned expressions, Mr. Zhao had a kind smile on his face, and it seemed that such reactions had long been commonplace. He slowly picked up the teacup, took a sip, and began to tell the story of his passionate, unconventional, eclectic life.
It was undoubtedly one of the most glorious periods in the Hong Kong film industry. In the sixties and seventies, many popular movie stars and little flowers were in their prime, they not only had the beauty and graceful figure of the country, but also exuded a unique charm of the times, which became the most eye-catching focus at that time.
And the one who controls the fate of these stars is the Shaw who has single-handedly created countless classic film and television works. Under his Shaw Brothers Film Company, there are countless popular actresses and film and television superstars.
Zhao Shizeng's acquaintance with Run Run Shaw was a completely unexpected encounter. At that time, he was a young member of the Architectural Society of Hong Kong, and with a dream of architecture, he walked into Run Run Shaw's office with a new design concept, looking forward to an in-depth exchange with the giant of Hong Kong's film and television industry.
When he pushed open the door, what appeared in front of him was a heart-pounding picture: a peerless beauty in a swimsuit showed various charming and moving postures under the illumination of the magnesium lamp, her eyes were misty, and her skin was like congealed cream, like a fairy in the world.
It turns out that this is the "exclusive interview" for the recruitment of new actors in Run Run Shaw Productions. At that time, Zhao Shizeng was in his youth, and his masculine and heroic temperament was instantly deeply attracted by this sudden picture, and the caution and calmness in his heart instantly dissipated.
Shaw was aware of the change in Zhao Shizeng's expression, and he joked slyly: "What? If you are interested in this, I can arrange for this beautiful woman to accompany you tonight." ”
This sentence sounded like an alarm bell in Zhao Shizeng's heart! He suddenly realized that behind the bustling and brilliant film and television industry in Hong Kong, there were so many shady transactions.
When it comes to Zhao Shizeng's family background, he is undoubtedly the best among Hong Kong's top wealthy families. He was born in 1936, and his father, Zhao Congyan, was one of the "Four Great Ship Kings" in Hong Kong at that time, and his family wealth was huge, and he was regarded as a leader in Hong Kong's business community.
As the eldest son, Zhao Shizeng enjoyed superior living conditions since he was a child. Under the careful cultivation of his parents, Zhao Shizeng has shown extraordinary talent. He was brilliant and witty, excelling academically, but also possessing unwavering perseverance and an enterprising spirit.
Such an outstanding young man is naturally favored by the whole family. The Zhao family decided to provide Zhao Shizeng with the best educational resources, so after he graduated from secondary school, they did not hesitate to send him to Durham University, a famous university in the United Kingdom, to continue his studies.
During his studies at Durham University, Zhao Shizeng worked diligently and tirelessly to complete his PhD with excellent results, which can be regarded as an academic success. At the time of graduation, he held a precious diploma in his hand and became the focus of attention in Hong Kong society for a while.
All this was already the pinnacle of life. According to common sense, as the son of the Zhao family, he can return to his hometown and enjoy the glorious achievements of the family business. However, Zhao Shizeng was not satisfied with this, he chose another challenging path - to start his own business.
With a deep academic foundation and a unique aesthetic vision, Zhao Shizeng quickly won wide recognition in the field of architectural design. He first joined the Hong Kong Construction Industry Association and met a group of like-minded friends.
So he resolutely set his sights on a magnificent and brilliant future blueprint and founded his own architectural design company. Since then, many of Hong Kong's high-profile and well-known luxury buildings and five-star hotel design projects have fallen into the hands of Zhao Shizeng.
After countless hardships and hardships, he finally earned the first pot of gold in his life with his hard hands and keen insight.
With these lucrative savings, as well as his father's unshakable position in Hong Kong's business community, Zhao Shizeng naturally made friends with many of Hong Kong's top wealthy families, especially with the film and television giant Run Run Shaw.
It was after a "chance encounter" that everyone expected, that the relationship between Zhao Shizeng and Shaw took a stunning turn, and the two seemed to have reached a tacit understanding that did not need to be explained: as long as Zhao Shizeng gave Shaw valuable gifts such as precious works of art and watches from time to time, and in return, Shaw would find the most beautiful and moving actress in the industry to accompany him.
In this way, Zhao Shizeng embarked on a fanatical, subversive, and unrestrained road of no return. With the help of Run Run Shaw's introduction, Zhao Shizeng was able to get in touch with many dazzling stars and beauties in the Hong Kong film industry.
A tacit "deal" has formed between them: as long as Zhao Shizeng keeps giving Shaw those priceless gifts, the other party will match him up and find the most beautiful and moving actress in the industry to accompany him.
As a result, Zhao Shi once held an unprecedented "beauty contest" in his luxury villa, which was far more grand than the traditional model selection activities. This unique "meet-and-greet" attracted models, film and television celebrities from all over the world, all of whom were carefully dressed and beautiful, as if they were afraid of missing this rare opportunity and not being able to make their mark.
In their opinion, there may be such a lucky person who can be "chosen" tonight, and from then on he will enter a wealthy family and enjoy endless wealth and glory. As the host, Zhao Shizeng is undoubtedly the chairman of the jury of this feast, holding the decisive power to personally "select" the favorite beauty from many beauties.
The entire villa is lit up with bright lights inside and out, shining a luxurious luster. The beautiful female guests are like blooming flowers, dotted in all corners, seductive figures, soul-bound eyes, and sultry demeanor, all of which make people fascinated and feel the unique charm and elegance of women.
In such a warm atmosphere, Zhao Shizeng stood in front of the mirror and carefully combed his appearance, and was about to leave for the banquet and embark on his "road of choosing a concubine in the harem". As the focal point of this banquet, he naturally needs to be well-dressed and look his best.
Amid the cheerful sound of gongs and drums and the cheers of everyone, Zhao Shizeng calmly stepped onto the red carpet covered with Honoka. The ladies in costume cast admiring glances at him, their eyes as bright as stars, their smiles charming and moving, and their fiery gazes seemed to melt him.
In the face of these overly enthusiastic gazes, although Zhao Shizeng was a little uncomfortable, he did not show it. For him, tonight is just a new beginning, and there are countless beautiful women waiting for him to conquer in the future.
So in the melodious music, Zhao Shizeng slowly walked to the center of the stage. Tonight, he will be unstoppable, and every appearance will be an opportunity to capture the heart.
The music finally came to an abrupt end at the climax, and Zhao Shizeng politely opened his mouth and delivered a passionate "inaugural speech". He said that he is an architect with a unique insight into the appreciation and pursuit of beauty, and it is really a blessing to be able to participate in the grand event with many beautiful women.
"I look forward to seeing you give me an amazing opportunity, and I will reciprocate it with sincerity. Zhao Shizeng's heartfelt words undoubtedly deeply touched everyone present.
In an instant, the scene erupted in thunderous applause and cheers, as if they had fallen in love with this master.
In this way, amid applause and cheers, Zhao Shizeng officially kicked off his "concubine selection journey" to recruit hundreds of daughters-in-law. In the long years that followed, wherever he went, he would meet beautiful women who took the initiative to be courteous, which made him indulge in beauty and couldn't extricate himself.
