"Ha Luha~~ Director Li, we met again~~ I didn't expect that I interviewed you with the microphone just now, and I was able to talk to you about cooperation, and the fortune teller said that I would meet a noble person in the next few days, which is really good." As soon as Zeng Zhiwei saw Li Xiaole enter the door, he put on his signature enthusiastic smile, went up and gave him an affectionate hug, and then turned his head and hugged Zhang Guorong again: "Ah Zai, long time no see." The two are old friends, they both look at each other, nod their heads and understand a lot of words.

Ha Zhiyuan, who was following them, nervously greeted Cheng Long and Zeng Zhiwei: "Brother Zeng is good, Brother Cheng Long is good." Seeing these two big brothers for the first time made her so nervous that she didn't dare to look them in the eye at all.

Cheng Long just smiled, shook hands and said "hello" to Ha Ji Yuan, but deliberately kept a distance from Li Xiaole, just nodded as a question mark.

"Director Li, I see that we will talk in another place, let's go eat something and talk while eating." Zeng Zhiwei hugged Li Xiaole's shoulders and smiled.

Li Xiaole originally wanted to shake his head and refuse, but Zhang Guorong next to him grabbed him and whispered in his ear: "Talking to the eldest brother, it's easier to talk after drinking......

Thinking of Zeng Zhiwei and Cheng Long's behavior, Li Xiaole also understood that this was not the place to talk, so he could only nod and agree.

The four of them drove all the way to an alley behind Tseung Kwan O TV City in Kowloon, and entered a simple old restaurant with a very old fragrance.

As soon as Zeng Zhiwei entered the door, the chubby boss greeted him with a smile on his face: "Brother Zeng is here." ”

"No seats?" Zeng Zhiwei, who was short in stature, tiptoed to see if there was an empty table. At the back of the TVB building here, it's 8 o'clock in the evening, and most of the people who stay here to eat are wireless extras, field staff, and so on.

"There's no seat left, I'll clear it for you." After the boss finished speaking, he turned around and shouted: "Brother Zeng is here, which of you is almost finished eating, quickly pack up your things and leave." ”

As soon as he said this, several tables of people who were eating turned their heads to look over, and when they saw Zeng Zhiwei, they all stood up one by one, and they all shouted: "We're leaving~!" Brother Zeng came to us~" "We're almost done eating~!" "I have to give up the table, obviously they all know Zeng Zhiwei, who often comes here.

"Don't be so troublesome, it's not easy for these young people to shoot for a day." Zeng Zhiwei frowned, turned his head and asked Li Xiaole: "Director Li, how about we put it on the table at the door?" ”

"Okay." Li Xiaole also smiled very dryly, he was really familiar with this kind of scene, and he missed this kind of scene of eating roadside stalls here and here with a bunch of friends at night.

Zeng Zhiwei smiled and moved the table with the hotel guys, and said to the boss with a smile: "Boss, remember the tables that got up and let us sit just now, right?" Those children's accounts are mine. ”

While Cheng Long greeted these juniors, he had already walked to the counter to pay the bill.

Li Xiaole saw this detail in his eyes, and also recalled the famous director Chen Kexing's evaluation of Zeng Zhiwei: "In today's Hong Kong entertainment industry, at least half of the directors younger than him have been helped by him, and no one in the entertainment industry will help people more unconditionally than him, he was born to help others, just like Brother Leopard in "Sweet Honey", he is a magnificent and affectionate person. ”

Nowadays, many people like to be a big brother, but what is a big brother? is not a commanding blackmailing younger brother, but a person like Zeng Zhiwei and Cheng Long who provokes everything on one shoulder, is the real "big brother".

After moving the table, after the five of them sat outside, they ordered roast goose and chaos noodles, and some side dishes with wine, although there were still many people passing by on this street, but there were no fans who came to ask for autographs or anything like that, just looked at this side from a distance very politely.

This is a place where many artists will come, because the head of TVB, "Sixth Uncle" Shao Yifu, once let go many years ago, in the five streets near the TVB building, no reporter can come here to take photos and interviews, so no matter which newspaper reporter, even the most bottomless "Apple Daily" will not appear here, unless they don't want to mix in the Hong Kong media industry, this humble restaurant has naturally become a good place for Hong Kong artists to come to have a pastime and eat.

Of course, this is also thanks to Hong Kong, a small land, where everyone is already familiar with celebrities, and when you go to a vegetable market, you may see Zhou Runfa at any vegetable market, and ordinary people rarely have a curious psychology about artists, even fans will only pick public occasions to meet their idols, and rarely affect the lives of celebrities in private time.

"Hong Kong is such a great place." Li Xiaole never thought that he could eat food stalls with Zeng Zhiwei, Cheng Long, and Zhang Guorong so leisurely, and he couldn't help but sigh when he felt the gentle night breeze.

"That's right, Brother Zhiwei." Zhang Guorong didn't move his chopsticks, just took a sip of the XO in the wine glass, and said straight to the point: "You should have received our fax file, this time Director Li wants to shoot 3D condor, I need some actors, you know that there are some people, you can only come forward to ask for ......"

"Eh~ How do you talk about work as soon as we meet?" Zeng Zhiwei shook his head again and again, and stretched out his hand to greet Li Xiaole: "Come on~~ Director Li, you're welcome, this family's roast goose wings are very famous, you try it~"

"Yes, today we drink and eat, and we don't talk about those headaches." Cheng Long, who has a very pleasing screen image, also said with a serious face next to him, and there was a sense of distance in his tone that rejected people thousands of miles away.

"Come~~ Brother Zeng, Brother Cheng Long, I salute the two of you with a glass, thank you two for admiring your face and coming out to eat with us." Ha Zhiyuan on the side hurriedly raised his wine glass to salute first, and after speaking, he dried it up, after mixing in China for so long, she is also transparent and sophisticated, she knows that these two big brothers in the Hong Kong entertainment industry do not trust Li Xiaole too much in their hearts, this is the key, if you don't establish trust, don't think about any cooperation at all.

Seeing the situation, Li Xiaole can only force his head to drink a few glasses with Zeng Zhiwei and Cheng Long, but he is not good at acting on the scene after all, although the five people are eating and drinking, but the atmosphere is not too warm, He Zhiyuan is not very bright in Chinese, and he does not dare to say anything, just trying to accompany Zeng Zhiwei and Cheng Long to drink, unconsciously his cheeks are slightly red.

But it can't be helped, this scene needs her to ease the tension.

After three rounds of drinking, Li Xiaole also didn't know the essentials, and his words became even less, and Zeng Zhiwei drank two glasses of interest, and began to hold Li Xiaole's hand and said:

"Director Li, you may not know the way, I was a martial artist when I should have entered the industry, and at the beginning I could only perform all kinds of corpses in this feature film, don't look at me like this now, I was very thin thirty years ago, and girls with wigs are exactly the same, of course, if the figure is not enough, I will fill in some materials." Saying that, Zeng Zhiwei smiled and compared his hands, this funny action amused Zhang Guorong, and he couldn't help laughing.

But Li Xiaole smiled and heard a lot of things from Zeng Zhiwei's words, and suddenly he saw a faint scratch on Zeng Zhiwei's arm. It's like an old wound strangled by something.

"This is an injury from the old-fashioned Wia, right?" Li Xiaole asked, pointing to his arm.

"Yes, how do you know the way?" Zeng Zhiwei was a little surprised.

"I've seen many martial artists have had similar injuries." Li Xiaole ate a piece of roast goose leg, recalled the scene of the year, and replied slowly:

"I remember that there was a martial artist, who was hung dozens of stories high, and the power went out as soon as filming started, and he listened to the wind blowing the sound of the wire, to know that the wire used at that time was still a good model of U817, not as safe as it is now, he said that all that appeared in his mind at that time was which movie was broken when the wire was filmed, and which movie stuntman had an accident...... He was really scared at the time, no one could save him before the call, he just hung on it, after the call, when we put him down, his legs were weak, he couldn't stand, but he still said that there was nothing to do, he was not afraid at all......"

Li Xiaole's words were very touching, in fact, the scar on this arm he also had in his previous life, and what he said was his own personal experience, because Wu Ti had to do a lot of dangerous actions, not only fighting, but also many scenes of hanging wires flying around......

Just like that, the distance between Zeng Zhiwei and Cheng Long and him was suddenly shortened, because the three of them were all from martial arts, and when they heard what Li Xiaole said, they couldn't help but feel a little empathy.

"Yes, people who have been martial arts for a few years can't remember how many injuries they have suffered." Zeng Zhiwei turned his head and pointed at Cheng Long and said with a smile: "Do you know the way?" When Cheng Long lives in a hotel now, if he sleeps, you can't find him in bed, because he must be lying on the ground, people who have been injured in the waist are more comfortable lying on the hard floor, Hong Jingbao has the same problem, you say it's funny or not~~~ So it's useless to say that people who enter the martial arts industry have money, and they don't have that rich life. ”

Li Xiaole also recalled his hard days back then, and couldn't help but sigh, really, these top actors in Hong Kong have all slowly climbed up from the bottom, and their acting skills are not because they have learned more professional courses in the training class than the students of Beiying Chinese Opera, and they have been honed by stumbling completely.

Now that he thinks of the years of martial arts, he still feels miserable, and he is very curious about why Zeng Zhiwei can make fun of his years as a martial artist so easily.

"Brother Zeng, why didn't you give up back then?" Li Xiaole was inexplicably a little emotional, and looked at Zeng Zhiwei, who was smiling, and asked.
