Global Movie Emperor

August 30, 2020, Hebeishi City, eight o'clock in the morning.

"The plane has landed at Hebei Zhengding International Airport. The outdoor temperature is 31 degrees Celsius. The plane is taxiing. For the safety of you and others, please do not open the luggage rack yet. Wait until the plane comes to a complete stop before you unfasten your seat belt... ..."

The plane stopped with a roar, and then a tall man wearing sunglasses got off the plane first. He looked up at the sky. It was cloudy today and the temperature was very moderate. It was a good weather for traveling and doing things.

He was expected to leave Hebei this afternoon, so Lu Ze didn't bring any luggage and went straight out of the airport gate. He found a place with fewer people and waited silently. After a while, an Audi A6L stopped in front of him.

"Mr. Lu, this is your car key. I wish you a safe journey and pay more attention to safety on the road."

The driver handed over the key, but Lu Ze didn't take it. He frowned and walked around the car twice. He stepped on the wheel with a pair of canvas shoes and stepped down hard before taking the key helplessly.

"Thank you, please, you too, please be safe on the road."

I got in the car, started the engine, didn't leave in a hurry, took out my phone and turned on the navigation, clamped it on the phone holder on the air conditioning outlet, listened to the cold synthesized female voice, put it in gear and drove towards the hotel.

This was his first time coming to Shishi, and the road conditions were a bit unfamiliar. In fact, as he went to more cities, he began to feel more and more that these cities were all roughly the same, without any particular features, but he became more and more able to detect the cities more easily. small differences between.

First of all, the feeling given to Shishi and Lu Ze was that of enthusiasm. The old neighbors were saying hello. Because it was Saturday, many old people were playing cards at the gate of the community. Children on the street were chasing each other and running. There were many people praising the country on the roadside. slogan.

But behind the enthusiasm is an indescribable helplessness. Like all northern heavy industrial cities, after the closure of various factories, it ushered in a long period of economic depression, and it has still not fully recovered until now.

But even so, people here still believe in the country and the government. This is the belief that flows in the blood of all people in industrial cities. They long for and firmly believe that the country can bring them a better tomorrow.

The car sped along, and after a little over an hour, we arrived at this hotel that looked quite impressive. There were three inflatable arches at the door. It was obvious that the person who chose to get married today was not Yang Dan's family.

After finding a parking space and parking, Lu Ze did not choose to get out of the car immediately. He sat in the car and lit a cigarette with the cigarette lighter. He took a puff and reached out the window with his left hand to flick the ashes.

"Brother, can you move the car? The motorcade will be parked here later. Sorry, come and smoke, smoke...to celebrate."

A slightly fat man came over and pointed to Lu Ze another parking spot while holding up the car window. This matter was originally Lu Ze's fault, but when people saw Lu Ze's car, it was worth hundreds of thousands more. , the words were a little polite, but just when he was about to hand Lu Ze a Yuxi, he found a box of red pandas in an iron box in front of the windshield of his house, and he looked a little embarrassed.

"Sorry, I didn't pay attention. Thank you. Just go forward and turn right, right? I understand. Thank you."

"You're welcome, which wedding are you attending?"

"Oh, Yang Dan's."

"Huh? You are..."

"Oh, then we are not from the same family, so I'll leave first, buddy. I'll see you later."

Lu Ze just smoked a cigarette, but he didn't refuse the man's kindness. He put the cigarette between his ears. Seeing that the man seemed to recognize him, he had to run away quickly.

After changing the parking position, I just walked from the next road and saw a motorcade driving by. The car mirrors and wheels were tied with red ribbons, which looked particularly festive.

A group of people came out of the hotel door. They were not the same as the man just now. They waved with smiles and then the car stopped. The man I saw in the photo before was wearing a black suit with red flowers on his chest and a With a warm smile, he tidied his suit energetically, ran to the other side of the car, opened the door, and picked up his bride.

It is said that the most beautiful look of a woman is the day she puts on her wedding dress. She really surprised everyone, even Lu Ze. Maybe it is because she is not suitable to dress up too brightly after work, and her curly hair has been straightened out. Instead, amid the joking remarks of a group of people, the man carried her into the hotel.

To be honest, Lu Ze didn't feel anything. After all, the two of them didn't have those romantic pasts. There was no beginning, so where was the regret? What's more, time will heal all wounds. The haze that left Lu Ze when she left has long since dissipated without a trace in so many years.

After entering the hotel, her wedding was on the second floor. Lu Ze did not take the elevator, but slowly walked up the steps. When he arrived at the door of the banquet hall, he took a look inside. There were no more than 20 tables of relatives and friends. , but there are many girls who are quite beautiful, especially those wearing bridesmaid dresses. Lu Ze has also seen them in the photo album Yang Dan placed in the room.

He took out the red envelope from his pocket and wrote his name on it. The money in it was not much, only eight thousand eight hundred and eighty-eight. This was not because Lu Ze was stingy, nor was it because his relationship with Yang Dan was worth this price, but because it was not worth it. She dared to give more because she was afraid that her husband would think too much about her. The two of them had nothing to do, and this incident would affect other people's relationship as husband and wife.

But even so, Lu Ze's red envelope is the thickest. After all, the relatives and friends here are ordinary people. A thousand or eight hundred people can be as high as the sky. The old man who kept the account was stunned for a moment after taking the red envelope. Lu Ze's name was written on the paper.

He opened the door, put on his hat, and casually asked an old man sitting at the table if anyone was here. After confirming, he pulled out a stool and sat down.

Because he was dressed plainly and wore a hat and sunglasses, Lu Ze didn't attract anyone's attention. He reached out and grabbed a piece of wedding candy from the plate, peeled it open in his mouth, and quietly played with his phone.

As time passed, a show began to be performed on the stage. It looked good. Even though Lu Ze couldn't play the violin, as a talkative king, he could still tell that the girl playing the violin on the stage didn't play at all. On tune.

Then the host came on the stage and introduced himself as a host from a radio station in Hebei. When he saw many people in the audience applauding, he must be quite famous in Hebei.

After a period of boredom and fun, the host became more serious. BGM that was very suitable for weddings was played on the speakers. The door of the banquet hall was slowly opened, and a couple walked towards the stage.

She was not short to begin with, but she looked even taller and slender after wearing high heels. She was wearing a snow-white wedding dress, her hair was tied up, and she was smiling. She was talking and laughing with her friends and family, and was not in a hurry to enter.

Lu Ze, like everyone else, stood up and applauded, watching them walk towards her little by little, but Lu Ze's height was indeed the kind that stood out from the crowd. Her eyes inadvertently noticed this tall man, and suddenly she became slightly frozen. , the eyes showed surprise and disbelief.

If others don't recognize Lu Ze, why can't she recognize him? Even though his temperament had changed a lot after a few years, even though he wore a hat and glasses, she was sure... it was him as soon as she took a look.

Today he was dressed very casually, just wearing an ordinary short-sleeved shirt, jeans, and a pair of black canvas shoes. His slightly long hair was not styled and was held down by an ordinary peaked cap.

This kind of surprise actually brought a lot of sadness. She put on the wedding dress, but he was blessing in the audience. This kind of bloody story is not uncommon in life, but when it was her turn, this kind of feeling had only been experienced before. Only people will understand.

But the rationality accumulated in thirty-one years told her to stay calm. The two of them are no longer in the same world. After this wedding, there may be no chance for them to intertwine.

She was getting closer and closer to Lu Ze, so Lu Ze took off his sunglasses and hat, put his hands down naturally, and with a warm smile on his face, waited for her to stand in front of him.

She wanted to reach out and punch Lu Ze in the chest, but as soon as she raised her hand, she put it down immediately. In the astonished eyes of the man and the people around him, his smile was as bright as a flower.

"You're here?"

"yes."

"...."
