Chapter 498: Every time I breathe, I am rushing to the future
Pull open the heavy glass door, the wind with a strong ocean breath instantly blows the nose, blows the hair messily flying, and is smoothed by a pair of big hands, in the distance, there is a big ship sailing directly to the port in the sparkling waves, and the automated dismantling equipment will eliminate human beings, and there is no more bustle of workers under the container.
He listened to the sound of the paper flipping, came to the fish tank to grab the fish food and sprinkled it into the water, the fish tank is not small, there are two cubes, the ecology in the tank is to find the master to get, under the premise of suitable for the survival of fish, it increases the beauty of ornamentation, but unfortunately, there are only two red mint fairies in the tank, which looks a little empty.
But it's also clever, not preoccupied when eating, as long as the fingers lightly touch the cylinder, the fish will swing their tails, and swim a long way, this living spirit is also interesting.
"Mr. Lu, I'm done. ”
"Good. ”
Answered, sat back at the main seat of the desk, the middle-aged man in front of him still had a solemn expression after thinking for a while, and placed the paper on the table, as if thinking about the wording, how to persuade Lu Ze to be not responsible for his own health.
His name is Kenny, a personal doctor and nutritionist hired by Lu Ze, this time to give Lu Ze a physical examination and escort the weight loss plan of "No Listen" in the future.
"You're in good shape, except for some hard injuries that require you to avoid recurrence after strenuous exercise, everything else is a minor problem, but ...... I really don't recommend you to lose weight quickly in the short term, and it is a weight of 30 kilograms, so the burden on the body will be relatively large, three months is too short, it will definitely cause irreversible damage to the body, with your current physical condition, at least half a year, or in the case of special self-discipline can be completed, after all, your body fat is only 14%. ”
"I'm not so nervous about time, three months is only the shortest time I expected psychologically, if you say you can reduce it, of course it's best, if not...... Then forget it, it doesn't matter. ”
"I really want you to say that it's okay if you can't lose 30 kilograms, and even want to take the initiative to persuade you to forget it, what does it matter if you lose a little less? But think about it, I think I should understand your pursuit of art, if you really give up so simply, you will not become such a great actor, but an ordinary person like me. ”
After putting Lu Ze's physical examination form into a brown paper bag, he got up and shook hands with Lu Ze with a smile, and finally recounted the plan he had made.
"Your physical trainer has contacted me, and when I go back, I will work out your recipe with the trainer, which will be sent to your mailbox in about three to four days, and some nutritional supplements also need to be prepared, after starting training, I will come over every three days to check your health, and if you have any discomfort, even if you are a little tired, you must call me immediately, and stop training, you are going to be a herbivore for half a year, good luck Mr. Lu, so today is it?"
"Okay, I'll send you. ”
It's going to be a tough experience, losing weight to fifty-five kilograms in a way that Lu Ze has never experienced before, and it's certainly difficult, but like Kenny just said, if he always likes to play simple, he won't be who he is today, so come on, it's all a small problem.
After sending off the private doctor, the life of the day has just begun, change into a neat suit, and pick up a bag of fast vegetable juice, something produced by a new company, I don't know if it's an IQ tax, but it tastes good, he likes to drink it.
Lu Ze originally wanted to sell this Cullinan to fill the company's financial gap, but this mere hundreds of thousands of euros is a drop in the bucket for the company's operation, and it can't be heard at all when it is smashed in.
And the company really needs a luxury car to act as a card when necessary, so Lu Ze's desire to share hardships with Mickey has also been shelved.
Holding vegetable juice, getting on the car and igniting the fire, the vehicle starts quietly, and moves in the direction of the company, after returning from Italy, every day, although there is no company, but it is better to be comfortable in a lively place than to nest at home alone, in short, to find something to do for yourself, is a necessary skill in life.
The headquarters is still as lively as usual, and even many reporters began to squat at the door, which began to occur after the release of "Exile", after Fatini's warning, reporters and friends also restrained a lot, just squatting at the door to shoot, did not make more excessive moves, Mickey turned a blind eye, and was even happy to do so, after all, entertainment companies always need some exposure.
After getting out of the car, ignoring these reporters who can only pat themselves on what they wear every day, walk into the company, and you can hear the sound of rock music from afar, accompanied by people's laughter, coming from upstairs.
Old Jill has been dressed very handsome these days, maybe he is his wife, and he doesn't forget to wear a gentleman's hat when he sits in the mailroom, as if the sun can really shine in through the west window.
On the second floor, pushing open the door of Mickey's most commonly used conference room, a group of people were playing pitchers, and ping-pong balls were jumping on the bottles and cans placed in specific positions, and finally passed by the Coke Cup, making this large group of people hold their heads and regret.
"Mr. Lu, good morning. ”
"Coming?"
Everyone put down the toys in hand and said hello to Lu Ze, except for the grandson who was still holding his head and wailing, everyone showed respect to Lu Ze, Lu Ze responded, but in the afterglow, he swept a boy who was not very suitable for the environment.
"Charlie, welcome back, how was it on the set?"
"Thank you, Mr. Lu, it's very good, I learned a lot. ”
The blonde and blue-eyed young man grabbed the corner of his clothes, faced Lu Ze, who was a head taller than him, raised his head and responded shyly, although his expression was well controlled, but the action of pulling the corners of his clothes clearly exposed the problem in front of Lu Ze.
This is a way of treating the other actors in the crew with obvious differences, so that their tolerance for error is much lower than that of actors from other companies, and often the second or third time they get stuck, and the director's criticism will come in, in this case, the actor's psychological state is actually very depressing.
If it weren't for the excellent performance quality of the actors selected by Lu Ze, so that the directors who were indirectly offended by Mickey really couldn't find any fault, it is estimated that the atmosphere and appearance of the actors who played in front of him would definitely not be so energetic.
But Charlie is different, in fact, his psychological quality is not too hard, and he does not have a long period of acting experience like other actors in the company, and Lu Ze needs to admit that compared to other actors, he does pay too much attention to appearance and temperament when recruiting Charlie, as for acting skills, it can only be said that he is very talented in acting, but it will take a long time to transform into real strength.
It seems that Charlie's life in the first crew of his life is not good, Mickey was the first to perceive it, and sent a text message to Lu Ze to persuade him, the main purpose of Lu Ze's coming over today is for this.
After taking a cup of coffee and sitting down next to Charlie, the two watched as the ping-pong ball jumped into the Coke cup, and the cheers of the crowd erupted, making the two people who did not go to celebrate look a little out of place.
Took out a custom cigar box from the inner lining of the suit, made of alloy, light weight, excellent grip, and the sound was crisp when the bumper jumped out, which attracted Charlie's attention, watching Lu Ze take out a classic size cigar and put it on his lips to light it, he was silent, and when Lu Ze handed the cigar box to him, he waved his hand and refused.
"The first cigar after the first finish?"
"I won't suck, thanks. ”
"It's very expensive, about 200 euros a piece, it tastes good, why don't you try it?"
At this time, Lu Ze didn't seem to be a good person, as if he was trying his best to promote his products, which made Charlie a little apprehensive and didn't want to, but he was embarrassed to refuse the recommendation of his boss and idol, and after a long pause, he gritted his teeth and firmly refused again.
"Really won't suck, thank you sir. ”
Repeated excuses made Lu Ze put away the cigar box, threw it on the table and left it alone, his lips opened lightly, the smoke flowed outward from the corner of his mouth, and the opened window was like a natural range hood, sucking away this trace of mist and returning fresh air to the room.
He leaned back in his chair, pinched the cigar with three fingers and turned it slightly, turned his head, and said to Charlie with a smile.
"Every time I light a cigar, it's like a dream, it's incredible to think about, do you know why Charlie?"
"Why?"
"I can smoke this cigar in thirty minutes, but at the age of eighteen, it was my month's salary. ”
This made Charlie a little surprised, but it was not to the extent of surprise, just listening to Lu Ze's words, he could feel a trace of other meanings, which was worth thinking about something else.
He is a fan of Lu Ze, and naturally understands the history of Lu Ze's fame, but in his memory, Lu Ze is a wild actor who was born in a non-class class, and with his own talent, he quickly stood out from the Chinese TV drama industry.
Before Charlie could fully understand the meaning of Lu Ze's words, Lu Ze spoke to himself again.
"When I was the same age as you, I worked as a waiter in a restaurant, and the exchange rate at that time was about 1 to 11, and my monthly salary was about 180 euros. ”
One hundred and eighty euros, it is estimated that only homeless people and refugees in the UK will regard this as a large amount, from the waiter to the actor, the gap between the two is like a trench, Charlie did not speak, but he already understood what Lu Ze meant.
"Later, I heard that I made a lot of money doing group performances, so I took 200 euros and took a train for more than 40 hours to another environment that I was completely unfamiliar with to start a group performance, and since then, I have started my acting career, at first I was very stupid, I couldn't do anything, I was scolded a lot, I suffered a lot of losses, and after more than a year, I slowly got some improvement, I heard that the economic company was recruiting, and I was introduced to officially become an actor. ”
This is a Lu Ze who is diametrically opposed to the Internet encyclopedia, not so talented, but more real, Charlie looked at the thick layer of calluses on Lu Ze's hands, and the scars on the back of his hands, and gradually had his own understanding of the former Lu Ze.
"Have you ever been scolded by the director?"
"Of course, if you don't scold me for a day, the director can't live, but Charlie, what I want to say is that other people's definition of you will always exist in the future, not in the present, because every breath you take is close to the future, and you are also saying goodbye to the past, if you only dwell on the mistakes you made in the past, then the future you will still not be recognized by others, since it has become the past, it is time to let go. ”
Lu Ze said it was true, Charlie didn't understand the truth anymore, and suddenly he was silent, young boys are always inexplicably ashamed to be comforted, maybe they were really belittled too much on the set, Lu Ze could clearly feel that his body was trembling slightly, so he reached out and rubbed Charlie's soft long golden hair.
It was a miracle medicine, and after a brief tremor, Charlie calmed down again, but his nose was still sour, and he would inhale a snort shortly thereafter.
Charlie finally lifted his head, revealing his handsome face from the cover of his long hair, and then, a white hand gently lifted and slowly reached out to the cigar box with delicate silver veins and calfskin wraps on the table.
With a flick of the fingers, the bumper made another crisp and pleasant mechanical sound, and the lid popped open automatically, showing Charlie the hand-rolled Cuban cigar, and after a moment of hesitation, the slender fingers finally grasped the leftmost one and slowly picked it up......
"Bang bang bang...... Little Charlie is starting to grow!"
I don't know when everyone's eyes have been focused on Lu Ze and Charlie, and when he picked up the cigar, applause began to ring, which is more of a symbolic meaning, rather than smoking is growth.
Charlie was still a little shy, holding the cigar to his mouth at a loss, just nodding blindly, thanking his big brothers and sisters in his own company, and even when Mickey lit the lighter and came over, he was subconsciously ready to light one for himself.
It wasn't until his head was patted that Lu Ze snatched the cigar and put it back in the box from the new one that he realized that something was wrong, and looked at Lu Ze who was sneaking up behind with a somewhat wooden expression.
"Can you learn something good at a young age?"
Lu Ze quickly took the cigar box into his arms, slapped away Mickey's outstretched black hand, picked up the ping pong ball placed on the table, and threw it at the pots and pans that had been placed, after a clanging sound......
Echo fell into the Coke cup.
