Global Movie Emperor

Chapter 170: New Year in Xiangjiang

"Brother Lu, here it is."

"Okay, leave it there for now, I'll eat it later."

Lu Ze kept flipping through the script, switching markers of various colors back and forth in his hand, and using a ruler to draw straight lines, wavy lines, dotted lines and other marks on the script.

About ten minutes later, I threw the pen on the script, rubbed my eyes, and opened the takeout Wang Zixuan bought. They were all high-calorie fried foods, such as burgers and fried chicken.

He picked up a burger, opened it and took a big bite, along with Coca-Cola. His expression was not as happy as Fat Man's, but rather painful. After all, no one could bear to eat these things every day.

The filming has been going on for almost two months, and the progress is gratifying. Now that the scenes of the young Jia Helong have been filmed, Lu Ze needs to quickly gain weight to fit the identity of the middle-aged Jia Helong.

The last time he weighed himself, Lu Ze weighed an unprecedented 207 pounds. The muscles he had developed during the "King of Fighters" period had completely disappeared, and he turned into a fat and burly man.

Now back at the hotel, Lu Ze couldn't bear to look in the mirror. His big belly and double chin really irritated him, but this was a work requirement and he had to accept it. He could only arrange what to do after filming this movie. Weight loss plan.

After three burgers, half a fried chicken, and a cup of Coke, Lu Ze burped. His eyes were a little distracted. He had obviously eaten straight. He leaned on the chair and didn't want to move.

"Brother Lu, you called."

Wang Zixuan was taking photos of Lu Ze with her mobile phone. Now the task of maintaining fan loyalty fell on Lu Ze's personal studio. As an assistant, Wang Zixuan had to take many photos of Lu Ze and send them back to the studio every day, and then the studio would take photos of Lu Ze and send them back to the studio. Posted on Weibo, he heard Lu Ze's cell phone ringing in his pocket, and quickly took it out and handed it to Lu Ze.

"Hello? Mom, um, I'm in Xiangjiang now. I can't go back this year. I don't have to worry about money. Does the medicine I mailed to my dad work? If it works, I'll buy more. Will it work? Then Very good, then I will buy it today, don’t stop taking the medicine, and you can just have a good New Year."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Nan, who was in Li Youmei's ear, quickly asked: "What did my brother say?"

"He said he is busy now and won't go home this year. Okay, it's better to be busy. Young people's work is important."

Li Youmei hung up the phone. In fact, it was quite unpleasant. She was so stubborn that she refused to admit that she missed her son. How could she actually not? After all, Lu Ze hasn't been home for a year.

"I'm not coming back, okay then...it's okay, Mom, you still have me~"

Lu Nan also missed her brother and was quite disappointed when she learned that he would not go home to celebrate the New Year this year. However, it was unpleasant to see Li Youmei, so she quickly hugged Li Youmei's arm and started acting coquettishly, trying to comfort her mother.

"Forget it, you'd better leave quickly. I'm annoyed when you're at home. Come on, I'm going to cook."

Li Youmei shook off Lu Nan's arm and stood up to prepare dinner. It was hard to imagine that Lu Nan, a well-known beauty in school, was like a piece of shit at home. Everyone disliked her. Just like that, she was still shameless. He had to stay close to his parents and brother, as if he felt uncomfortable if he didn't get scolded.

...

After hanging up the phone, he held the phone and tapped it twice on his lap. Lu Ze also felt homesick, but this year the crew didn't have a holiday, so he couldn't do anything special. He had to go home and eat pig head meat for two days, so he could only stay in the crew.

"Zixuan, later you go buy some of the plaster you bought last time, from the Cishitang store. Buy more this time, and then mail it to the same address as last time. By the way, is it okay if you don't go home this year? ?”

"It's okay. I've already told my family. My family is very supportive of my work, so I'll go first."

Looking at Wang Zixuan's leaving figure, Lu Ze could only sigh with emotion. In the past few years, Wang Zixuan and Lu Zexuan have been running around, and they have made rapid progress. They are no longer the silly girl who follows Lu Ze all day long to grab luggage.

He works neatly, conscientiously and communicates very well with Shen Jinghan. Now he is used to Lu Ze's work pace. He can arrange everything by himself without Lu Ze having to ask him anything. He can be called a qualified assistant.

She has only been with Lu Ze for nearly three years, and now she is almost twenty-five years old. According to Lu Ze's thinking, at this age, she should find a boyfriend and consider marriage, but she is still single.

Her mother has Lu Ze's WeChat account. After all, Lu Ze is considered Wang Zixuan's leader, so her mother doesn't dare to send Lu Ze messages often. She only occasionally asks Lu Ze about Wang Zixuan's current situation and asks Lu Ze for reminders. Wang Zixuan, don’t miss the right one when you see it.

It's just that it's hard for Lu Ze to say this, and he is still single and has never found a suitable partner. The eldest brother, not to mention the second brother, is about Lu Ze's marriage. Both Li Youmei and Lu Weiguo are worried about their gray hair, but it's not easy to rush them. Lu Ze, after all, it is really difficult to find a partner in his profession.

Previously, according to Lu Hua's rules, in a normal family, if the eldest son did not get married, the second eldest child could not get married, but now...if Lu Nan could get married, the old couple would probably want Lu Nan to get married quickly.

In fact, he was thinking too far. Lu Ze didn't want to give in to his relationship. After all, it was a lifelong thing. He didn't want to get married today and leave tomorrow like other people in the circle. He just found a suitable one and was down-to-earth. It will be good in one lifetime.

"Lu Sheng! It's time to film."

"Okay, I understand, here I go."

The stage manager came over and called Lu Ze. Lu Ze stood up and looked at his hair, which he had grown back. It was combed neatly behind his back. He had a big belly and was wearing a black suit. He didn't look like a good person.

Since I gained too much weight, my movements have indeed become sluggish. I even snore while sleeping. I carry dozens of kilograms of weight on my back when I run a few steps, sweat drips down, and even my breathing becomes heavier. If it weren't for regular maintenance, Lu Ze would probably have developed mild fatty liver disease in the past two months.

We got into a particularly retro 1948 Rolls-Royce and started filming again. After finishing the filming of each scene, another scene started immediately, and it seemed that it never stopped.

...

This is the first time that Lu Ze has not gone home to celebrate the New Year and is resting alone in the hotel. The director in Xiangjiang always wants to speed up the progress. Even now that Xiangjiang Film has entered an era of excellence in movies, he has never been able to change this. A bad habit that is not a bad habit.

They took two days off, New Year's Eve and the first day of the new year, and continued filming on the second day of the new year. At 11 o'clock in the evening on New Year's Eve, after Lu Ze made all the phone calls, he took Wang Zixuan out for a walk and met Xiangjiang. A very unique New Year.

Lu Ze had to admit that the New Year atmosphere here was stronger than that in mainland cities. At eleven o'clock in the evening, the streets were full of people, and there were some performances that Lu Ze had never seen before.

For example, Lu Ze has never seen performances such as lion dance. There are relatively few lion dances in northern cities, but Lu Hua does more Yangko during the Chinese New Year.

Although the customs are different, the process is actually the same, except that it is more lively than the mainland cities, and the climate here is mild, and the streets are full of little girls wearing miniskirts, which really attracts Lu Ze's eyes.

The rest of the crew were all from Xiangjiang, so they all went home to celebrate the New Year. Song Qingmin originally invited Lu Ze and Wang Zixuan to his home to celebrate the New Year, but it was better not to get involved in this festival, so Lu Ze politely declined.

After eating some of the snacks here, the taste was quite sweet. Carrying a cup of milk tea, the two of them walked to Victoria Harbor at 11:40.

There are more people here than on ordinary streets, but most of them are tourists from the mainland. The mixture of various accents has become a taste that Lu Ze is accustomed to and enjoys.

In order to avoid being recognized, Lu Ze still put on a mask, although it is a bit difficult for people to recognize him with this body shape...

The purpose of the two arriving here was to see the fireworks that would be set off in Victoria Harbor tonight. It was said that the fireworks would last for more than ten minutes and cost hundreds of millions. They did not want to miss such a large fireworks scene.

Standing on the guardrail at the seaside, the sea breeze was actually a bit cold. The two waited patiently. There were people around and behind them. They were wrapped up in the crowd, just like two ordinary tourists.

"Coming, coming! Countdown!"

A countdown started on a huge LED screen on the other side. Lu Ze and Wang Zixuan were also inspired by the atmosphere of the crowd and shouted together.

"five four three two one!"

In an instant, a burst of fireworks shot up into the sky, exploding into a huge, round firework. Lu Ze raised his head and exclaimed like everyone else, and then a row of fireworks rose up on the coastline and exploded, covering up the huge sound. Can't hear people's shouts.

People congratulated each other, and even strangers said auspicious words for the New Year.

"Happy New Year, Brother Lu!"

Lowering her head, Wang Zixuan held a large cup of milk tea in both hands, her face still expressionless, but Lu Ze could see the stars exploding in the sky reflected in her eyes.

"happy New Year."
