Chapter 586: Chance Encounter with Zeng Zhiwei
As soon as Lin Qingxia saw Xu Guanwu appear in front of her, Yan Yan's expression, which was still smiling just now, instantly turned cloudy.
Wang Tianlin, Zhou Yunfa and others were all obedient, and when they saw this situation, they all made an excuse and slipped away. Only Xu Guanwu and his family were left standing there.
"Qingxia, are you still angry with me? Okay, don't be angry, I'll pay you for dinner, okay? Xu Guanwu said with a smile.
"I don't have time, I want to go back to see my daughter, you go home and find your wife for dinner." Lin Qingxia didn't look at him, and said coldly.
Zhilu said that you miss your daughter, so I invited Sichen over. Xu Guanwu beckoned, and the nanny in the car hurriedly hugged Sichen and got out of the car.
When Lin Qingxia saw it, her eyes immediately widened, "Maria, who told you to take Sichen out?" She couldn't help but shout.
"Madam, it's none of my business, it's my husband who asked me so." The maid hurriedly looked at Lin Qingxia with a pleading face.
Xu Guanwu stretched out his hand and hugged his daughter, "Don't shout so loudly and startle the child." ”
"Give me back my daughter." Lin Qingxia glared at Xu Guanwu unhappily and said, "You just take your baby son to travel to the United States, why are you robbing my daughter with me?" ”
"I did this too partially, I'm sorry for you mother and daughter. Now please eat and count me as compensation, and when we have time, we will go to the United States to play together, as my compensation, okay? When Xu Guanwu heard Lin Qingxia say this, he couldn't help but look gloomy.
"If you say I'll believe it?" Lin Qingxia said angrily, "You promised our mother and daughter a lot of things, how many of them have really come true?" When you look back, you'll say that the company is busy. Can't leave. I don't have time to spend time with our mother and daughter again. ”
"No, it won't. I've decided that I'm going to retire. Xu Guanwu smiled.
"Hmph, I'm lying again." Lin Qingxia said casually, and suddenly she looked at Xu Guanwu with wide eyes, "Wait, what did you just say?" You said you decided to retire?! ”
"Yes, I plan to step back from now on and no longer be the boss of the Xu Group. I'll have time to spend with you mother and daughter in the future. Xu Guanwu smiled.
Lin Qingxia did not show a happy smile on her face, but looked at Xu Guanwu in disbelief. "Do you have a high fever, or are you talking nonsense? Xu's Group is your industry, and if you take a back seat, who will take care of the company? ”
"Doesn't the company still have a brilliant team of seven to take care of?" Xu Guanwu smiled and said, "Actually, since I went to the mainland the year before last, I haven't been in charge of things in the company. Now it's time to retire while you're young, and I can spend some more days with you. Otherwise, if you retire in your seventies and eighties, even if I want to stay with you again, I won't have much time left. ”
"Is what you're saying true or false? Does Ah Zhi know your decision? Lin Qingxia listened to Xu Guanwu's explanation, and became more and more confused.
"Ah Zhi Zhilu said, she also persuaded me yesterday, but my mind has been decided." Xu Guanwu smiled. "Okay, do you want to have dinner with our father and daughter? You see, the daughters are already hungry. Come. Baby girl, beg mommy to eat with us. Xu Guanwu fiddled with his daughter's little arm and said.
"Oh, it's so cold outside, don't take her hand out." Lin Qingxia yelled at Xu Guanwu, and ran over to stuff her daughter's hand back into the down jacket, "Okay, let's go." But have you really decided to retire? ”
"yes, what do you think of my idea, for or against?" Xu Guanwu asked Lin Qingxia with a smile.
"I don't know what to say." Lin Qingxia shook her head, "Maybe this is a good thing, but with your playboy temper, I'm afraid that you can't be idle at home, maybe you will bring the third, fourth, fifth, sixth or something back home." ”
"If I were really a playboy, I wouldn't have been able to just bring you home for so many years." Xu Guanwu said with a smile, "Okay, good wife, what are we going to eat at noon today?" ”
"Eat whatever you want, I'll have to film later." Lin Qingxia waved her hand without understanding the amorous style, "By the way, there is a teahouse on the set that has good shrimp dumplings, and there are glutinous rice chickens for sale at noon." Ah Fa and I, Uncle Tianlin and I have eaten there several times. Why don't you just go there and eat? ”
"Why, our father and daughter delay your work so much, and they refuse to even accompany us to eat a serious meal?" Xu Guanwu couldn't help but say depressedly when he heard this, "I knew that Lu Dao wouldn't help you make this movie in the first place, and now I have lost my wife." ”
"Well, eating is about eating comfortably, not about expensive food, eating with emotion." Lin Qingxia waved her hand and said, "I really don't have time to eat any Western food with you today, when the movie is finished, I'll eat Western food with you, right?" ”
"Okay, I'll just accommodate you." Xu Guanwu thought about it, and finally nodded and said, "Let's go, you lead the way." ”
Lin Qingxia nodded, and led Xu Guanwu to a nearby teahouse first, and saw that the signboards on it were a little shiny, and it seemed that it was still a time-honored brand.
"A paradise?! Good name! Xu Guanwu smiled and said, "I remember that in the movie "Emperor Qianlong Goes to Yangzhou" directed by director Li Hanxiang, the place where Emperor Qianlong drank tea was a paradise, and it seems that he should have learned from here. ”
Lin Qingxia also smiled, "There are indeed quite a lot of celebrities who come here to eat, one is delicious, the other is convenient, and the third is affordable." ”
"In front of you, what artist dares to claim to be a star." Xu Guanwu said with a smile, in exchange for Lin Qingxia's coquettish eyes.
At noon, business in a paradise was really good. There are no vacant seats upstairs and downstairs, and even Wang Tianlin and Zhou Yanfa, who have just arrived one step earlier, have to wait here.
There are Daguan Studios, Shaw Brothers' Clear Water Bay Studios, and Golden Harvest's Axe Mountain Road Studios near Huada Studios, several studios are very close to each other, and there are often crews filming here, so every noon is full of guests, and you can't find a seat when you come one step late.
"Mr. Xu, Miss Lin, you also come to drink tea." Wang Tianlin looked at Xu Guanwu and Lin Qingxia, and when he saw that they had all come to drink tea together, he couldn't help but nodded. Looking at Xu Guanwu, there was also a hint of a smile in his eyes.
"yes. I didn't expect this teahouse to look good. The business is really good, and there will be so many customers. Xu Guanwu nodded and smiled.
"It's been open for decades, and it's been here since the day I came on the set at Cathay. And the shrimp dumplings and glutinous rice chicken here are the most delicious, and some people often do not hesitate to wait for two hours just to order this plate of glutinous rice chicken. Wang Tianlin said with a smile, "I have been eating in this teahouse for more than ten years, and I haven't had a chance to come for a few years." I always miss the glutinous rice chicken he sells here. I didn't expect to come back and eat it this time, and the taste is still so authentic. ”
Xu Guanwu heard Wang Tianlin say this, and smelled the fragrance of the food, and couldn't help but move his index finger. He knew that Wang Tianlin said that "there was no chance to come for a few years in the middle", referring to the fact that after the plane crash of Lu Yuntao, the general manager of Dianmao, Dianmao went out of business, and Wang Tianlin, who was originally one of the famous directors of Dianmao, was also swept out of the house with Dianmao closing the door, so naturally he had no chance to come to this paradise to eat again.
"Uncle Tianlin, you are still very young, and the glutinous rice chicken here has a chance to eat." Xu Guanwu said with a smile.
"Then thank you Mr. Xu for rewarding me with food." Wang Tianlin heard Xu Guanwu say this. I couldn't help but smile and said.
"It's me who wants to thank Uncle Tianlin." Xu Guanwu said with a smile.
……
After waiting for a while, Xu Guanwu's legs were sore. It's still not their turn. Seeing that Xiao Sichen in his arms also began to make trouble, Xu Guanwu became a little impatient.
"Qingxia, it's better to go somewhere else to eat, I don't know how long I'll have to wait here. You see, the baby is already hungry. Xu Guanwu said to Lin Qingxia.
"Well, wait for me to go up and take a look, it's best if there is an acquaintance to take a seat." Lin Qingxia said, "There are still a few people coming to us, and it will be even more disadvantageous to leave now." ”
Xu Guanwu was stunned for a moment, and suddenly couldn't laugh or cry, "I knew that it was better to eat steak than to go there, and we didn't need to make a reservation to go there." What's like waiting to be numbered here? ”
"Mr. Xu, Miss Lin, let me take a look." When Zhou Yanfa heard the words of the two, he couldn't help but recommend himself.
Before Xu Guanwu could say anything, Zhou Yunfa had already stood up, upstairs and downstairs to look for it, "Alas, there is no way, the people who eat here are all Shaw Brothers and Jiahe, and there are no people from us who eat here at all." ”
"Alas, then there is no way, if it is from my own company, people can still sell me face. The people of Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest can't wait for me to die, who will give me a seat? Xu Guanwu smiled bitterly and said, "Forget it, let's go, let's go to the city to eat steak." Uncle Tianlin, Fa Zai, in my opinion, you don't have to wait, let's go eat together, I'll treat you. ”
Wang Tianlin smiled, "No need, I'm old, my teeth are not good, I may not chew the steak, you young people should eat it." ”
"I'm not used to using knives and forks, so let's go, Mr. Xu." Zhou Yunfa also refused with a smile.
"Alright then, in that case, we'll see you later. Uncle Tianlin, Qingxia may be a little late in the afternoon, you have to be more considerate. Xu Guanwu smiled again.
"Don't worry, I'll arrange to shoot other scenes first." Wang Tianlin said with a smile.
Xu Guanwu nodded, hugged the baby, and walked out with Lin Qingxia.
At this time, I saw a group of people coming to the door, shouting five and drinking, so lively. Through the oil-stained window, Xu Guanwu vaguely felt that the leader was so familiar.
Sure enough, as soon as the door was pushed, a large number of people walked in, all of them were young and strong dragon and tiger martial artists, and the first person was really Xu Guanwu's acquaintance, it was Zeng Zhiwei who jumped to Jiahe the year before last.
Xu Guanwu hadn't seen him since he jumped out of the city, and he didn't expect to meet him here today.
Zeng Zhiwei didn't expect to bring a group of brothers to drink tea and meet his former boss Xu Guanwu, and he couldn't help but feel hot and uncomfortable on his face.
Although he now has his own company in Jiahe, he has also pulled a lot of people to start the Zeng family class, and he is also called the eldest brother before and after, and he looks so majestic. But in fact, I know that although I have made a few blockbuster movies in Golden Harvest and made some money, I didn't make much more money than in Xu's. But to start your own company and raise a brother, this cost has greatly increased.
People outside don't know the details of the road, seeing that he set up a company and pulling another vote of people, it looks like he is majestic, and they think that he has made a fortune, but in fact, he is already a tiger ride, and even the money he earned in Xu's before has to be lost.
Zeng Zhiwei used to see Hong Jingbao as a big brother, and he looked so majestic around him, and after he opened the company, he immediately pulled a ticket and put up a big brother's shelf. But Hong Jingbao's dragon and tiger martial artists are all paid by the Xu Group, and Hong Jingbao only occasionally invites guests, eats, sings, and dances, but it doesn't cost him much money. But Zeng Zhiwei raised a group of brothers, but Jiahe refused to pay this money, so Zeng Zhiwei had to pay out of his own pocket, and he was paid, eating and drinking, singing and dancing, and over time, these people were like vampires, almost sucking his savings dry.
Zeng Zhiwei is naturally miserable, but it is already difficult to ride a tiger. So when he saw Xu Guanwu at this moment, he couldn't help but feel a little weak. (To be continued......)
