Weng Meiling came back with a few bags of snacks and meat dishes, and hit the doorbell with her forehead a few times, before Wang Guxian ran out to open the door.

Both now live in apartments arranged by Oriental Entertainment for artists — the entire apartment is Kang Jianfei's private property, which is used exclusively to rent to the artists and employees of its company.

Since it is a rent, of course, you need to pay the rent every month. However, compared to this kind of high-end apartment, the rent of 800 yuan per month is very cheap, and even if a few more people share it, the rent of 300 yuan per person per month can be made.

Wang Guxian, as an actor that Kang Jianfei focuses on, originally lived in a single apartment. However, after returning to Taiwan to make a movie for a few months, the house where she lived had been occupied by other artists in the company, and she was arranged to come and share with Weng Meiling.

The first thing Wang Guxian did after opening the door was to take the big bag of snacks in Weng Meiling's hand, take out a bag of potato chips and eat it, and said, "The rice is already cooking, it will be fine in twenty minutes." Who cooks today? ”

"I'll do it." Weng Meiling carried the vegetables she bought into the kitchen, while Wang Guxian sat in the living room watching TV and eating snacks.

The two girls couldn't eat much, so Weng Meiling casually fried two dishes and served them on the table, but found that Wang Guxian was watching the Miss Hong Kong beauty pageant semi-finals with relish.

"Let's eat, what's so good about the beauty pageant." Weng Meiling said with a little bit of unpleasantness that she was also a beauty pageant of Miss Hong Kong, but unfortunately she only won the eighth place in the final.

When Kang Jianfei and Zhao Yazhi invited her in person, Weng Meiling was very happy, thinking that her future star journey would definitely be smooth sailing. But after Weng Meiling fulfilled her obligations as a sister in Hong Kong, several months had passed, and both Kang Jianfei and Zhao Yazhi had forgotten about her.

Fortunately, Weng Meiling's image and acting skills are not bad, after the contract was transferred to Oriental Entertainment Company. gradually began to play an important supporting role in some TV series and movies. Although Weng Meiling has not been able to become popular, she can also get a salary of 60,000 or 70,000 yuan a year, which is equivalent to the salary of white-collar women in Hong Kong.

Kang Jianfei actually really forgot about Weng Meiling, otherwise he would definitely take care of it a little.

In another time and space, Weng Meiling played Huang Rong in 83 and became popular, and in 85 years, her career and love suffered setbacks, and she committed suicide by turning on the gas when she couldn't think about it for a while.

Today's Weng Meiling is not famous, and the possibility of suicide is very small, and I don't know whether to say that she is lucky or unlucky.

"It's very good, there is no such TV beauty contest in Taiwan." Wang Guxian helped Weng Meiling serve rice. But his eyes were glued to the TV. Taiwan is now in a state of "martial law," and its social ideology is not much more conservative than that of the mainland, and ordinary people have really never seen such a fashion gadget as beauty pageants.

On TV, the Miss Hong Kong beauty pageant semi-finals have begun, and the participating beauties are wearing colorful fashions one by one. As for the custom-made nurses, sailors, and flight attendant uniforms, they will not be worn until the finals. In order to achieve a refreshing feeling for the audience.

When Weng Meiling sat down at the dinner table, the two emcees of the competition on TV had already begun to warm up and talk. See the glamorous beauties on the TV. Weng Meiling thought of the situation where she couldn't mix up now. She was quite unhappy, she said: "Watch the show of Phoenix Channel, otherwise we will be scolded again if we are watching TVB." ”

"Phoenix is also a beauty pageant." Wang Guxian picked up the remote control and changed the channel, the reason why she chose to watch TVB was actually because she had admired the name of "Miss Hong Kong" for a long time. I want to see how the famous Miss Hong Kong beauty pageant was chosen.

When Wang Jixian changed the channel to Phoenix Chinese Channel, it was indeed playing the Miss Oriental beauty pageant semi-finals.

Weng Meiling muttered: "It's only June, how can the beauty pageant start?" ”

Beauty contests in Hong Kong are usually held in July. There is a two-week gap between the semi-finals and the finals. However, there are sometimes exceptions, and it can be held half a month earlier and half a month later, so it can be moved to June or August.

This time, in order to take the lead, Phoenix Station chose to hold the semi-finals in mid-June, making it clear that it wanted to hold it in advance to steal the limelight of the Hong Kong Sister Competition. Of course, TVB will not show weakness, and hurriedly forced the time of the semi-finals forward, and chose to be held on the same day as the Miss Oriental beauty pageant semi-finals.

Weng Meiling and Wang Guxian, watching TV while eating, commented on beauty pageants from a female perspective from time to time, but many times the comments were sour.

As soon as Qiu Huixin's cheongsam outfit appeared, her mature and charming and dignified and gentle posture immediately amazed the audience, and even Wang Guxian in front of the TV couldn't help but envy and said: "If only I were as beautiful as her at the age of 38." ”

Weng Meiling's gossip soul also ignited at this time, and asked, "Xiaoxian, who do you say will win the championship in this Miss Oriental beauty pageant?" ”

Wang Guxian thought for a while and said, "Qiu Huixin, that has the highest call to win the championship. ”

Weng Meiling shook her head and said: "That's not necessarily, in the beauty pageant of Miss Hong Kong in the past few years, those who were favored before the finals basically couldn't win the championship." ”

"What are you doing?" Wang Guxian asked puzzled.

"I don't know what to say, anyway, the beauty pageant results must be unexpected, maybe the TV station is trying to earn ratings." Weng Meiling speculated.

Time passed little by little, and the beauty pageant semi-finals on TV had reached the question session.

No. 1 Mo Wenwen's answer was decent, and when it was Qiu Huixin's turn, the five judges were all quite interested in her.

After Qiu Huixin finished answering the scheduled question, Pan Disheng asked improvisedly: "Miss Qiu, you said that you came to participate in the beauty pageant to make money to support your family." So if you were to be free of food and clothing, would you still come to this beauty contest? ”

Qiu Huixin replied with great certainty: "No." ”

Kong Yubiao, a famous female writer and former manager of the program department of Jiashi, asked: "If you participate in the beauty pageant, you will definitely win the championship and become a popular star, will you still be the choice you made before?" ”

"Yes." Qiu Huixin nodded.

"For what?" Kong Yubiao asked.

Qiu Huixin smiled: "Because being elected as a beauty champion and being a star is not the life I really want." I just want to live a normal life and enjoy every day of life. But the reality is always not as good as it should be, and whether you like it or not, you are forced to choose a certain way to survive. ”

Zhang Dezhi, vice president of Merry Advertising Company, took the lead in applauding, stretched out his thumb to Qiu Huixin and said, "Miss Qiu, your answer is great!" ”

Wang Guxian and Weng Meiling, two girls, are still young and full of fantasies about the future, and they don't understand Qiu Hui's willing to be plain.

In the guest seat at the scene, Ye Xueyan leaned to Kang Jianfei and whispered: "This woman is good, it seems that she will definitely win the championship." ”

Kang Jianfei despised Ye Xueyan in his heart, but this Ye Gongzi looked at Qiu Huixin's eyes on the stage, and Su Yuanyuan next to him was already sulking with jealousy.

"No. 28 is not bad, she is still a lesbian from our mainland." Kang Jianfei pointed to Li Zhi on the side of the stage and said.

Su Yuanyuan vaguely heard the conversation between her husband and Kang Jianfei, and said sourly: "You men are like this, you refuse to blink when you see a beautiful woman." ”

Ye Xueyan hurriedly cursed and swore: "Yuanyuan, I have never had another woman except you." ”

"You know it yourself." Su Yuanyuan was too lazy to quarrel with him, she found a condom in Ye Xueyan's pocket last time, and it had no effect at all after making trouble a few times.

Capitalist society is easy to corrode people's minds and wills!

But in fact, this has nothing to do with ism, the key is whether men have money or power.

Like last year, when the crackdown was severe, the third son just held a dance party at home, so he naturally came to Hong Kong safe and sound. But the grandson of another boss was shot directly in the crackdown.

Why will he be shot? Because the man was too handsome, he became the president of a bank in a certain place at a young age, which attracted many beautiful women to post upside down - all kinds of women who really love, who want to do things, and who want money. The prince also did not refuse to come, and the famous woman slept with more than 30 people, but when she slept, she ate and wiped clean and did not do anything.

Those women who "lost their bodies" are naturally unhappy, and all kinds of petitions and reports have an extremely bad social impact. As a result, it happened to run into 83 Strike Hard, and after consulting the supreme leader below, there was a "prince who broke the law and committed the same crime as the people".

The reason why Ye Xueyan came to Hong Kong to do business was not only because he didn't like politics and the pursuit of freedom, but also because he was scared by the crackdown, and the prince who was shot was no worse than his Ye Sangongzi.

"Miss Leigh, please draw the question!" The master of ceremonies smiled.

Lizhi exhaled softly and pulled out an envelope from the transparent box.

The master of ceremonies opened it and asked, "May I ask Miss Leigh, which celebrity do you think is the closest to your personality?" ”

Li Zhi thought for a while and said, "I think it's more similar to Liu Bei's personality." ”

"How could it be Liu Bei? Is it because of his benevolence and morality? But now many people say that he is a hypocrite. The master of ceremonies asked in surprise.

Not only was the emcee surprised, but others at the scene were also surprised by Lizhi's answer. Because when answering this kind of question, people generally say that they look like a foreign celebrity, or a big star, etc., and no one really says that they look like the ancients.

Originally, Kang Jianfei was going to let Lizhi cheat the whole process, but this beautiful girl had to advance by her own strength, so she didn't know about the semi-finals in advance.

"Because Liu Bei has a resolute and indomitable character," Li Zhi said calmly, "Liu Bei is the one who has won the most battles among the leaders of the Three Kingdoms of Wei, Shu and Wu, but he has cheered up again and again, and finally divided the world with the invincible Cao Cao. I have suffered a lot of setbacks before, and after coming to Hong Kong, I have suffered all kinds of white eyes and discrimination because of the relationship between mainland girls, but I will not give up, I will cheer up, and use success to repay the people who looked down on me at the beginning. ”

Zhao Yazhi asked, "Do you think you are successful now?" ”

Li Zhi replied: "Being able to stand on this stage is a success for me a year ago, and I believe that with my own efforts, I will be more successful in the future." ”

Kang Jianfei couldn't help but laugh and applauded warmly with the others. (To be continued......)
