Chapter 116: Fame and Fortune
The car slowly stopped in front of a villa.
As soon as the car stopped, the driver got out of the car first, bypassed the front of the car, and went over to open the back door, and Zhou Baoshan calmly stepped out of the car and walked down. At this time, the driver had already hurriedly run to the back, took out a large gift box from the trunk, and handed it to Zhou Baoshan.
Zhou Baoshan straightened his clothes, took the gift box, and then explained to the driver, "You can go back first, I will definitely eat at my senior brother's place." ”
The driver quickly agreed to get down and turned to get into the car.
And Zhou Baoshan carried the gift box, walked to the door of the villa, and rang the doorbell.
After about ten seconds, the door opened, and a fat body pulled it open, with a smile on his face, "When did you come back?"
Zhou Baoshan smiled on his face and said, "I just arrived, I haven't gone home yet, I heard that the uncle and aunt are here, I'll come over for a meal and then go home." ”
Zhong Yuanfu laughed, leaned sideways and opened the door, "Come, come!"
Zhou Baoshan entered the door, and sure enough, he saw that Zhong Yuanfu's parents were there-when he was in the master's door to learn martial arts, he followed Zhong Yuanfu from the beginning. For a little apprentice like him, the master only makes a point, and a lot of specific guidance and boxing practice are often the things of the senior brothers, so although Zhong Yuanfu is a senior brother, he is a bit of a half-master, since then, Zhou Baoshan has not gone to Zhong's house to eat, and he is very familiar with Zhong's father and Zhong's mother.
When he entered the door, he first shouted "Uncle and Auntie", still using the native accent of his hometown, and when he saw a girl coming out of the kitchen, he obediently called "Hello sister-in-law"!
This girl has been following Zhong Yuanfu for two years, but the wedding has not been held, because the Zhong family's parents look down on her - there is a reason for this, and Zhou Baoshan undoubtedly knows a lot.
At that time, Zhong Yuanfu was still practicing martial arts with his master, and his body was not obese because of the fork in the road, he was also regarded as a handsome guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, he liked a girl in the local hometown town, and once there was some talk about marriage between the two, but later he practiced and went wrong, and his body began to deteriorate sharply, coincidentally, the girl was then admitted to college, and then immediately after, their master died.
came and went, and the girls began to look down on Zhong Yuanfu a little, and in the end, they were divided.
One is that the master died, and he was shot, in the case of martial arts practitioners, it was a bit embarrassing to die, so that a group of apprentices could not raise their heads, and they were a little depressed, and secondly, Zhong Yuanfu was fat and lovelorn, and it was destined that kung fu would never have any entry in the future, and in despair, he decided to go south and find a job to make a living.
From here, there were several years of career in Jinhua Film and Television City.
As a result, who would have thought that the little brothers who escaped from the town back then had no face to go back for many years, but they actually hit a big luck and suddenly became movie stars!
When people become popular and rich, they naturally want to return to their hometowns.
At this time, the girl Zhong Yuanfu liked back then had graduated from college for several years and was already married, but Zhong Yuanfu was unwilling, "Huang Feihong" had just finished filming, and it had not yet been released, but the salary had already been obtained, although I don't know if it would be popular, but Zhong Yuanfu had money in his pocket, and his courage was strong, and the girl he liked back then was not afraid that she was already married, he knew that she also had a sister, who was more beautiful than her.
So, he first went home with the money, inquired a little, and then returned to Shuntianfu.
At that time, the girl's younger sister was studying at university in Suncheonfu.
After a while, the girl was impressed, and the two soon began to live together.
However, as soon as "Huang Feihong" was released, it was found that Zhong Yuanfu was a big fat man who was very likely to become a movie star, and his first love, who is now his girlfriend's sister, actually didn't know how to get Zhong Yuanfu's phone call, called him, and expressed regret.
Zhong Yuanfu didn't pay attention to her, after all, they were all married!
As a result, when he went home for the New Year, Zhong Yuanfu's first girlfriend found that his sister was actually holding her ex-boyfriend's arm, and she was immediately furious - during the New Year, the sisters almost fought on the spot.
As a result, before the New Year was over, the two of them returned to the city in advance, and later it was said that after going back, the two divorced - and then, she actually found Zhong Yuanfu's home in Shuntianfu and said to her sister that Zhong Yuanfu is mine, and you must return it to me.
Well, of course, the final ending of the story is still relatively satisfying.
Both of them lived in the Zhong family.
As a result, just like this, although the Zhong family's parents are both from small town villages, and they don't have much knowledge, they feel that the two sisters are not good-natured, and they are shameless to be poor and love rich. So, the old man of the Zhong family said that no matter who these two sisters were, if Zhong Yuanfu dared to marry them, he would be expelled from the house immediately, denying him as a son.
The sisters were very anxious, but Zhong Yuanfu was not in a hurry, anyway, if they are married or not now, the two sisters are hunkering around his feet and necks when they see the sky, and they are better than puppies, he is very satisfied.
Of course, such a beautiful blessing, Zhou Baoshan can only think about it.
Although Zhong Yuanfu has also become popular, in recent years, in addition to "Huang Feihong's Boy Should Be Self-Improvement", he has also received three small and medium-cost movies, and has also taken over the starring role of several TV series, and the money is not less, but his popularity is obviously too far from Zhou Baoshan's popularity.
And the price of being popular is that you don't have time to pick up girls if you want to.
Not to mention that while avenging the love and revenge like the senior brother, he also collected a pair of sisters.
In this regard, whenever he was holding an English book there to memorize words in the middle of the night, Zhou Baoshan couldn't help but think: Senior brother should be happy at this time, right?
Zhong Yuanfu said in person that he has no big ambitions, and he is not ready to become a big star, so it is good to shoot so steadily. Even now, after working hard for a few years to save a little money, he is ready to take on as few plays as possible in the future, except for the company's arrangement.
In his words, the most important thing is to enjoy life, as long as the money is almost enough to spend!
Otherwise, what is the point of earning a mountain of money, but there is no time to spend it at all?
At this time, Zhou Baoshan entered the door, Zhong Yuanfu saw the thing in his hand, and suddenly said: "Xiaobao, you can come, take something!"
Zhou Baoshan smiled hesitantly and said, "Auntie, there is no such good thing, it is not valuable." It's just a little tonic, I know that your second elder came over and brought it to you. I also got a set of cosmetics for one of my two sisters-in-law. ”
Hearing Zhou Baoshan shouting "sister-in-law" again, the Zhong family's parents were a little unpleasant on their faces.
Fortunately, they didn't say anything, and Dad Zhong pointed to the sofa and said, "Sit down, sit down and talk." ”
At this time, another one came out of the kitchen, his hands were still wet, he should be washing vegetables, but he was busy coming out, and greeted Zhou Baoshan with a smile on his face, "Brother Baoshan is here?" - Seriously, when Zhong Yuanfu fell in love with her, Zhou Baoshan was a half-old child, a little child, and it belonged to the goods that followed the eating and drinking. So in fact, for Zhou Baoshan, this "sister-in-law" is of course not the same as her sister's "sister-in-law".
However, this is Zhong Yuanfu's matter, and it is also a matter of other people's boudoirs, no matter how good his brother is, it is not easy to interject - besides, the big deal is a little romantic affair, with Zhong Yuanfu's current net worth and fame, not to mention the two of them ordinary girls, even those third-tier stars who have some fame, seventeen or eighteen-year-old little models, are not just beckoning, they can immediately gather around a large group, and pick at will?
The entertainment industry has always been Vanity Fair.
Successful people have always had the power to spend all their time and be suave.
However, for this "sister-in-law", Zhou Baoshan has a little more politeness brought over from his youth, and seriously called out again, "Hello sister-in-law!"
Zhou Baoshan put down his things and chatted with Zhong Yuanfu's parents casually - mainly to greet them and inquire about the changes in his hometown. He also said that since they are here this time, they will stay here for a few more days, so that they will have to come over and do their filial piety. Soon the two old men were coaxed to be happy.
After talking for a while, seeing that Zhong Yuanfu was always sitting on the side with a smile, and he didn't seem to have the intention of speaking, Zhou Baoshan had no choice but to take the initiative to speak: "What, uncle, aunt, you sit first, and I'll accompany my uncle to drink two cups later." But at this time, I have something to talk to my senior brother and ask him for an idea. ”
As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Zhong Yuanfu.
Zhong Yuanfu said "ah" at this time, with a look of sudden realization, and said, "That...... That's okay, anyway, it will take a while for the meal to be good, let's go up, you go to my study and sit down. ”
Father Zhong and Mother Zhong waved their hands happily and motioned for them to talk.
The brothers and sisters quickly went upstairs and came to Zhong Yuanfu's so-called "study" on the second floor.
In fact, this should be regarded as his "tobacco and wine room".
As soon as Zhou Baoshan came in, he found that there were two wooden blocks on the desk, and there were sandpaper and other things next to it that should be used for sanding, and then when he looked up, he saw at least one or twenty pipes of all kinds on the bookshelf over there.
In the past six months, since returning from the United States, he first went to film "Shaolin Temple", and then went to film "The Legend of the Wanderer", although he also came to Zhong Yuanfu's house a few times in the middle, but he didn't come to the study.
Entering the room, Zhong Yuanfu seemed to subconsciously touch a pipe, open the imported tobacco box, take out the tobacco for the pipe to rub, and then fill and ignite.
Zhou Baoshan has seen many people do this process.
Li Qian, Cao Zhan, and several other people in the company are all pipe smokers.
It's just that he only knows that his senior brother is a big smoker, but he doesn't know when she started smoking pipes.
Seeing that he started to smoke, the study, which occupies a large area, suddenly became full of smoke, so Zhou Baoshan quickly got up and went to open the window.
When he went back to sit down and saw Zhong Yuanfu smoking a cigarette and enjoying it, he couldn't help but ask first: "Senior brother, when did you start learning to smoke pipes?" Glancing at the wooden blocks on the desk that had been drilled, he asked again: "You still learn to make pipes?"
Zhong Yuanfu smiled hesitantly and said: "Making pipes, in fact, it is not difficult, isn't it just carpenter's work! But I still have a lot of tools, I'll take you to my garage to see after dinner, a full set of guys! My first proud work, given to Cao Ye, Cao Ye said that my craftsmanship is not bad! The last time we chatted, Qian Ye also said that he would learn from me another day, hehe!"
As he spoke, he took a beautiful puff.
The smoke erupted from his nostrils, enveloping him for a while, making Zhou Baoshan feel a little unable to see his senior brother's expression in a trance.
At this moment, he seemed to understand something, but he didn't seem to understand anything.
I just think that the senior brother is still the same senior brother, but the senior brother seems to be different from the previous senior brother.
Of course, he didn't think much about it, he lowered his head for a moment at this time, raised his head again, and said, "Senior brother, after attending the opening ceremony of Teacher Feng Yumin's studio a few days ago, Lao Hu went to Jinhua Mansion to find me. He said to me......"
didn't wait for Zhou Baoshan to finish speaking, Zhong Yuanfu said "Hi", interrupted Zhou Baoshan's words all of a sudden, and only listened to him: "Lao Hu, this person, he still has the ability, he is an agent, he negotiates with people, and his level is not bad, but he is a little bit of a wind and rain, and his mind is not steady, don't always listen to him talk nonsense to you!"
Zhou Baoshan made him stunned for a moment.
"But he told me......"
"Studio?"
Zhong Yuanfu suddenly laughed and interrupted him again.
Zhou Baoshan looked at him and nodded slowly, "He said that in addition to Feng Yumin's studio signing, the company plans to open studios for four people in the next year, two directors, Han Shunzhang and Jin Han, and two actors, He Yingyu and Bai Yujing." ”
Zhong Yuanfu was neither surprised nor surprised when he heard this, as if it was the first time he heard about it, he smacked it for a while, nodded, and said, "Well, it's appropriate!
Zhou Baoshan opened his mouth, but suddenly he didn't know what to say.
On the same day, the agent took the news and rushed to Jinhua Mansion to tell him about it, although he didn't show anything in person, but when he had dinner together and sent the agent away, he couldn't do it in his own heart. That night, standing in front of the luxurious floor-to-ceiling window of the presidential suite of the five-star hotel, he opened a bottle of wine, and drank half a bottle tastelessly, with an indescribable sense of loss in his heart.
Finally, after the filming of "The Legend of the Swinger" was finished, he hurried back, but he didn't see anyone, and he was the first to come to see his dearest brother, but the reaction of the senior brother seemed to be taken for granted?
Isn't he more red than He Yingyu?
How could Senior Brother take it for granted?
***
There was a delay during the day, and I couldn't code the words, and it was even later, forgive me.
