Chapter Fifty-Eight: Meet Honggu and Frankly Invite

At half past eight in the morning, the streets of Hong Kong are busy with traffic, and it is the rush hour for work, buses, taxis, and private cars are driving back and forth, looking up at the entire Prince Edward Avenue, which is slightly congested because of the busy traffic.

Although the road conditions are not too good, it is still early, Zhong Yihong does not seem to be in a hurry, while thinking faintly about the upcoming meeting in his mind, he slowly drives forward with the traffic.

She was bored watching TV at home last night, and received a call from Zhou Yanfa, who was busy filming "The True Color of Heroes". After everyone chatted for a while, Zhou Yunfa conveyed to her the invitation of director Su Mucheng to meet. probably means that Director Su wants to invite her to participate in a new movie, and the script is also written by himself, because he knows that Fa Ge has a very good relationship with her, so he asked Fa Ge to convey the invitation to meet tomorrow morning.

For this director Su, Zhong Yihong naturally knows it, she and Fa Ge went to the premiere of his first movie, and it can only be said that the senses are very good, but everyone did not communicate too much. Su Mucheng's deepest impression on her was not his extraordinary talent and appearance, but his faintly exuding calm temperament and his bright and deep eyes.

still remembers that the first time the two met was when she was invited to participate in the movie "Hardcover Chasing Girls" directed by Fa Ge and directed by Wang Jing, and at the same time, Su Mucheng wrote the script herself. He looked at himself at that time, and apart from the first look of surprise, followed by that pure appreciation. I don't know if it's an illusion, Zhong Yihong faintly felt a faint taste of joy and nostalgia hidden in that look.

After receiving Fa Ge's call last night, she leaned back on the sofa and thought quietly, and couldn't help but think of the strange feeling she felt from the other party's eyes at the beginning. It's a pity that I can't figure it out when I think about it, but she has a calm personality, since she can't figure it out, she is too lazy to think about it, and she will contact it in the future, maybe she will get the answer.

After a while, it was finally time to meet at the meeting place, and after Zhong Yihong parked the car, he walked into the teahouse.

When she arrived at the service desk, Zhong Yihong raised her head and was about to speak, but the waiter opposite looked at her and said with a smile: "Hello Miss Zhong, Mr. Su has already booked No. 6 Tea House, and he is already inside, please come with me." After speaking, he politely stretched out his hand and motioned for him to lead the way.

Zhong Yihong also said politely, "Thank you", and followed the waiter to the No. 6 tea house where Su Mucheng was located.

The so-called No. 6 tea house is just the name given to those private rooms by this tea house, the tea house is the private room, and the number is the number of the private room.

When she arrived at the door of the No. 6 Tea House, the waiter turned around and politely motioned to Zhong Yihong to wait a while, and raised her hand to knock on the door gently, and Zhong Yihong, who was standing behind, had already seen Su Mucheng with a teacup and meditating with his eyes closed from the crack in the door of the hidden door.

The curtain city was just savoring it, and the owner of the teahouse in front of him specially sent the West Lake Longjing. Although I don't know much about the tea ceremony, the fresh and mellow tea aroma and delicate and silky taste can still be experienced by Makujo.

At this time, a knock on the door sounded, interrupting Makujo's faint thoughts just now.

"Please come in," Makujo said lightly, putting down his teacup.

With a bang, the waiter opened the door, turned to Zhong Yihong and said, "Miss Zhong, please." ”

Zhong Yihong smiled and nodded to the waiter to thank him, and walked into the room. Seeing Zhong Yihong who walked in, Makujo also hurriedly got up to welcome him, and nodded to the waiter to thank him, and the waiter also smiled and bent down at Makujo, then retreated, and closed the door of the room.

Makujo pulled away the chair next to him, smiled and said to Zhong Yihong, "Honggu is here, let's sit down first." ”

"Thank you", Zhong Yihong responded politely, and sat down on the chair. After seeing Zhong Yihong sit down, Makujo also walked back to his seat and sat down.

"Sorry to bother you so early, let's have some snacks first!" It's only nine o'clock now, it's breakfast time, Makujo estimated that the other party shouldn't have eaten breakfast yet, so he took the chopsticks and put a xiaolongbao in the bowl in front of Zhong Yihong, and pointed to the snacks on the table, and said to Zhong Yihong with a smile.

"Eh, okay, thank you" I didn't expect the other party to be so enthusiastic, Zhong Yihong couldn't help but be stunned, but he still reacted immediately and thanked him.

Mucheng didn't notice Zhong Yihong's consternation, he also picked up a bun and ate it, looked up and saw Zhong Yihong looking at him in a daze, raised the half of the bun in the chopsticks in his hand and said, "Eat, you're welcome." ”

After Zhong Yihong saw his signal, he also picked up the buns in the bowl, brought them to his mouth gently, and took a bite. As soon as the delicious bun entered his mouth, Zhong's eyes lit up, "Well, it tastes really good."

It's been a long time since I've eaten such a punctual xiaolongbao, Zhong Yihong couldn't help but eat more, and after a while, Zhong Yihong reacted, and there was another person coming. When he looked up, he saw that Su Mucheng had put down his chopsticks, looked at himself with a smile, and then looked at a few empty plates on the table, Zhong Yihong's face couldn't help but blush, and he put down his chopsticks embarrassedly.

Seeing Zhong Yihong suddenly stop her chopsticks, Mucheng looked at her suspiciously and said, "What's the matter, if it's not enough, I'll ask the waiter to send some more." ”

"No, no, I'm already full" Zhong Yihong hurriedly shook his hand, blushed slightly and looked at Makujo with a slightly satisfied face and said, "It's been a long time since I've eaten such a punctual breakfast, I accidentally ate more, and now my stomach is a little supportive." As he spoke, he rubbed his stomach in motion.

Mu Cheng couldn't help but smile when he looked at Zhong Xinhong's appearance, Zhong Yihong reacted that the action he got just now was not very elegant, so he hurriedly put down the hand that was rubbing his stomach, and lowered his head and didn't dare to look at Su Mucheng. Zhong Yihong also felt strange in her heart at this time, how could she look so casual and natural in front of him, she was not very familiar with him!

After thinking about it, he couldn't figure it out, so Zhong Yihong didn't bother to think about it, so he raised his head and looked at the shogunate. Makucheng also happened to look at Zhong Yihong, the eyes of the two suddenly collided together, looking at Makucheng's calm and smiling face, Zhong Yihong now knows that it is the other party's calm and casual attitude that makes him feel comfortable and relaxed.

After the two looked at each other for a while, Makujo took the lead in breaking the silence and said, "Honggu, I asked you to come over today, in fact, there are two things I want to talk to you about." ”

Zhong Yihong was also a little puzzled in her heart, "It's not to negotiate his new movie, how can there be another thing" couldn't help but look at Makucheng curiously, looking forward to his next words.

Seeing Zhong Yihong's slightly puzzled eyes, Makujo didn't rub it, so he smiled and said:

"Let's talk about the first thing first, which is the movie making that Fa Ge told you before. I wrote a script called "Dao Ma Dan", and then I will cooperate with director Xu Ke, who will direct it, mainly about a patriotic legend performed by three women with different identities who got together by chance during the Republic of China. One of the female characters we hope you can participate in, yes, although the other two actresses have not been confirmed, but basically there should be no problem, I might as well reveal to you first, one is Miss Lin Qingxia, and the other is Miss Ye Qianwen. ”

After Makujo finished saying these words in one breath, he smiled and nodded to Zhong Yihong, who was thinking, and took a big sip of the teacup, really thirsty. At this time, this good dragon well was like boiled water, and it was drunk like a peony chewed by the shogunate cow.

Zhong Yihong can be said to be a wiser person, and from what Makujo just said, she grasped several important news. One is that the script of this movie was indeed written by Makujo himself, but he did not direct and shoot it himself, but chose to cooperate with director Xu Ke. The other is to listen to his simple description, this is a patriotic story during the Republic of China, it should not be a comedy but may be a literary film. There is also the other two actors he mentioned, one is the famous predecessor in the film industry and the popular movie star Lin Qingxia, and the other is Ye Qianwen, an artist who straddles singing and film and is also very good, which shows that this drama is not small.

After a while, Zhong Xianhong looked at Makucheng, who still looked calm and casual, and said, "Director Su, can I read the script first." ”

"Oh, okay, no problem, it was my negligence." Makujo also reacted after hearing the other party's words, and said it himself, and didn't give the script to others first.

Turning around, he took the briefcase lying quietly from the chair next to him, opened it and took out two manuscripts from it, one was the outline of the script, and the other was the script of the role she was going to participate in. After putting the briefcase back in its place, Makujo got up with a smile and handed the two manuscripts to Zhong Yihong, nodded and motioned for her to take a look first, then sat back in his position, lifted the teapot next to him and poured a cup of tea in front of Zhong Yihong, and then refilled the leaves in his cup, then took the teacup, drank tea, sat quietly, and waited for Zhong Xinhong's reply after reading the script.

After Zhong Yihong took the script, she nodded to Makucheng, and then looked down and read it in detail. As

Makujo said that this is a story that takes place in the Republic of China, and the main characters are three women with different identities and different personalities. After reading the outline of the script, Zhong Yihong knew in her heart what the role that the other party invited her to participate in was. Then I opened the character script and read it, and sure enough, as I expected, it was the role of Xianghong, the money-hungry courtesan in this play.

From the script alone, Zhong Yihong felt the literary atmosphere contained in the period, and it was a test of acting skills for literary films, and Zhong Yihong did have an interest in participating in this role.

Although Zhong Yihong debuted in 79, what really made her famous was a literary movie, that is, "The Story of Hu Yue" she cooperated with Zhou Yunfa in 81, with the role of the Vietnamese girl Shen Qing she played in the play, it can be said that it was an instant hit and completely became popular.

After making a decision in her heart, Zhong Yihong put the script back on the table, showed her charming smile and looked at the curtain city who was waiting quietly opposite, nodded and said, "The script is very good, I am willing to participate in this role." ”

After hearing Zhong Yihong's affirmative reply, Mu Cheng also smiled and nodded, got up, stretched out his right hand, looked at Zhong Yihong and said, "I believe that with the addition of Honggu, this movie will be added a lot." ”

Zhong Yihong also got up with a smile and shook hands with Mu Cheng, "Director Su has won the award, it should be that I thank you for giving me this opportunity." ”

Mu Cheng shook his hand and looked at Zhong Yihong calmly and said: "Aunt Hong, you see that I call you that, you don't want Director Su, Director Su, if you don't mind, just call me Ah Cheng like Brother Fa and them." Everyone is young, so there is no need to be so restrained. ”

Looking at the other party's calm expression and listening to the other party's words, it is true that everyone is young, and she also feels very relaxed and natural in the face of the curtain city, Zhong Yihong also showed a sincere smile and nodded.

After the two sat down, Zhong Yihong also let go of writing in his heart, and looked at Makucheng with a smile and said; "Ah Cheng, then you can talk about the second thing you asked me over today."

Makujo nodded, and said with a smile: "This second thing is that I want to invite Honggu to join my company." You should know that brilliance is my own industry, but unfortunately there are no artists under the company who can take out the level, so I hope you will join. Of course, you can rest assured that the company's conditions are very generous, and there will not be too many restrictions on you, and it will help you get more opportunities to participate in the show, and make you the company's signature. ”

When he said this, Makujo glanced at Zhong Yinhong, and saw that there was no excessive reaction on her face, so he paused and put away the smile on his face, but changed to a serious and serious expression and continued: "The ones mentioned earlier are all basic things, and I will only say the next words once, I hope you can seriously consider it." After finishing speaking, he looked at Zhong Yihong seriously.

Zhong Yihong saw Makujo's serious expression, she knew that the next thing would be the highlight, so she nodded with a serious face, and motioned for Makujo to continue.

Makujo looked at Zhong Yinhong's eyes seriously and said word by word: "I don't lack script funds in my hands, nor do I lack funds, but I don't have good actors." If you are willing to join, I will tailor a few classic movies for you, each of which will invest more than the "Legend of the Swordsman of Xinshu Mountain" filmed by Golden Harvest back then, and I am confident that it can succeed and believe that it can break through to the other side of the Pacific Ocean. And you will become popular all over the country and become an idol in everyone's minds. In my eyes, Hong Kong and the whole of Southeast Asia are still too small, and I want to go farther, wider, Asia, Europe, the Americas, and even the world. Maybe you think I'm delusional, so ambitious, but this is my goal and ideal, I don't care what others think, I will keep going until I can no longer walk.

With the words of Makucheng, you will find that his eyes are so hot, his expression is so solemn, and his body exudes a kind of majestic momentum of overcoming thorns and thorns, riding the wind and waves to conquer all the ups and downs on the road under his feet, and the whole person is full of incomparably domineering confidence.

After Makujo finished speaking, he returned to his original state, as if the domineering and confident majestic momentum just now had never appeared. After looking at the past, it has changed to the original calm, confident, and smiling expression.

Zhong Yihong looked at Makucheng with wide eyes, she was shocked, shocked by his lofty ideals, and shocked by his unintentional domineering and majestic momentum. Although he still feels that what Makujo said is a bit ambitious as he said, when he thinks of that fleeting momentum and the other party's incomparably domineering self-confidence, there is a trace of agreement in his heart, maybe the other party can really do it.

Mu Cheng, who calmed down, smiled and looked at Zhong Yihong, who was still staring at him with wide eyes, and said, "I hope that Aunt Hong can consider my invitation when she goes back, and not only you, but I also sent an invitation to Brother Fa." I hope that when the time comes, you will be able to join us in creating a brilliant future. ”

Zhong Yihong was stimulated too much today, and it took a while to come back to her senses. She just nodded when she heard Makujo's words, it would take her a long time to digest today's goodness.

The two continued to talk in the room like old friends, and neither of them brought up the topic again, as if it had never appeared, but both of them remembered the conversation clearly in their hearts.

Time passed imperceptibly, and seeing that it was going to be noon, Zhong Yihong proposed to say goodbye, she needed to go back and sort out today's conversation, and Makucheng didn't hold back too much. Soon after Zhong Yihong left, he also walked out of the teahouse.
