Global Film Emperor

Chapter 49 From this day forward, Lu Ze will never return to Hengdian.
If Lu Ze wanted to move, it wouldn't take three days at all. His house was just a pile of junk. Apart from a few clothes and some other things he could take with him, he could just throw the rest in the trash or give them to the old man next door. He could finish packing everything in two hours.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead; his face was still covered in cobwebs. He had searched high and low for something he might have forgotten, but he hadn't found anything worth taking. Instead, he had gotten covered in dust.

After washing his face and packing his luggage, Lu Ze picked up the phone and called Zeng Long and Liu Le. He didn't have any close friends in Hengdian, only two benefactors who had been kind to him. They were getting together today because he would be leaving Hengdian tomorrow.

The three of them met directly at a restaurant. Zeng Long and Liu Le were old acquaintances, so there was no awkward atmosphere at the dinner table. The three of them booked a small private room and toasted each other.

Zeng Long was initially surprised, but then quickly accepted it. He worked in the union and had seen many actors who had made it big leave. Now, seeing Lu Ze go? It was only natural.

Liu Le was surprised, muttering that it was too fast, too fast. In just four months, Lu Ze seemed to have a stroke of good luck, with good things coming one after another and his career soaring.

From an ordinary extra to a character actor, to working with a film crew, to officially joining the crew and getting a named role, and finally signing a contract with an entertainment company and about to debut.

Liu Le had worked in Hengdian for over a decade and had never encountered anything like this before. He really wanted to ask God, "Is this reasonable?"

Even though he was a little upset, he was still happy for Lu Ze. Lu Ze was the first extra he knew who had made it through his own hard work.

He also knew that Lu Ze was about to stir up a storm in Hengdian, bringing those weary people who had lost their dreams back to life. More importantly, if Lu Ze really made it big, many people would be influenced by him and think they could do it too. Whether it would be good or bad, Liu Le couldn't say for sure.

Both of them supported Lu Ze's departure, and after congratulating him, they didn't mention it again, since they were already used to parting.

The three drank until after 10 p.m. before finally parting ways. Lu Ze hugged the two men, and then they went their separate ways.

Lu Ze had drunk quite a bit and was drunk. He staggered home and, passing a regular intersection, touched the lamppost next to him.

He walked through every familiar place, touching the things placed there, as if trying to remember everything. Finally, he leaned against a telephone pole and vomited.
I barely made it home, opened the door, and without even taking off my clothes and shoes, I lay down in bed, closed my eyes, smacked my lips, and drifted off to sleep.

"dong dong dong"

"Who?"

"Brother Wang, it's me, Lu Ze. I'm not renting the house anymore, I'm moving out today. Would you like to come with me to take a look?"

The door opened, and the landlord, Old Wang, who seemed to have just woken up, looked like he had just been out partying yesterday. His hair was a mess, and he squinted when he saw the light as he pushed the door open.

"What's wrong, Aze? You're quitting? Planning to go home?"

Old Wang only had this one guess, after all, too many people left Hengdian this year, one more Lu Ze wouldn't make a difference, and one less Lu Ze wouldn't make a difference either.

Lu Ze simply smiled and nodded without saying anything more. He watched as Lao Wang put on his coat and then followed Lao Wang back to his rented room.

There's nothing to see in this old, dilapidated house. Even if it gets damaged, as long as you don't smash a hole in the wall, it's not considered damage. Old Wang just glanced at the electricity meter, told Lu Ze to leave the electricity bill to him, and then readily refunded Lu Ze a month and a half's rent.

With a backpack and two bags, Lu Ze left. When people who knew him asked where he was going, he didn't say anything, but simply wished them well.

From then on, Lu Ze, an extra, was no longer seen in Hengdian.

Back at Qian Shijia Company, Lu Ze left his luggage at the front desk and gently knocked on the office door of the administration department.

"Hello, is this where artists register for their dormitories? Who should I ask to show me to my dorm?"

After asking an employee who was typing on a keyboard at his desk, Lu Ze quickly found the staff member in charge of the artists' dormitories. The staff member had a key and let Lu Ze follow him downstairs.

The dormitory isn't far from the company; it's in an apartment building to the north of the company. The environment is decent, though there isn't much greenery, but the facilities are fairly complete. "Floors 15, 16, and 17 are all our dormitories; you can choose one."

Lu Ze preferred to live on higher floors, so he decisively chose the seventeenth floor. The staff found the elevator card for the seventeenth floor in a bunch of keys.

There are fourteen rooms on the first floor. Lu Ze looked at them one by one and finally chose 1703. This room faces south. Although the apartment-style design does not have north-facing windows, it will be a bit hot in the summer, but it will not be as humid in the winter.

After signing the registration form, the staff handed Lu Ze a set of keys and an elevator card, reminding him to pay attention to the cleanliness of the room. The company would conduct surprise inspections every now and then, and if the room was found to be in poor condition, he would be fined.

After seeing the staff off, he took a tour of the new home, which was about 70 or 80 square meters with tiled floors. There were four bedrooms, each containing only a single bed, a small wardrobe, and a desk.

There is a TV and a washing machine, so you can cook, but there is no air conditioning or broadband. The toilet and bathroom are not big, but the bathroom has a water heater so you can take a shower.

After choosing the room with the best lighting and neatly unpacking all the clothes and other items he had brought, Lu Ze picked up a mop and carefully cleaned the room inside and out. This room must have been lived in before; the surface was very clean, but the corners and edges were very dirty. Lu Ze even swept out a used condom and a woman's underwear, which made his face turn pale.

There was a mattress on the bed, but no quilt or sheets. Lu Ze's bedding was too dirty and torn, so he threw it away. He would have to buy some later.

I took out my phone, opened Notepad, wandered around the room, and wrote down everything I felt I was missing before finally putting on my shoes and heading to the department store.

Lu Ze still has some money in his personal savings account, and the signing fee from Qian Shijia, after deducting taxes, has been credited to his account. It's not a small amount, so Lu Ze isn't short of money at the moment.

But he remained frugal, always comparing prices before buying anything to save money wherever possible, not only because he was the breadwinner, but also because he wanted to save money to get married.

From bedding sets to pots and pans, try them all out and choose the best quality and most cost-effective ones.

And so, after spending over eight hundred yuan and making several trips, he finally managed to move everything upstairs. Wearing his newly bought slippers, he walked around the house a couple of times, and Lu Ze expressed his satisfaction.

He filled the washing machine with water and scrubbed it thoroughly. The condoms he had previously found had left him with a lot of psychological trauma, especially if the previous resident had used the washing machine to spin-dry their shoes.
The sheets and blankets were removed, thrown into the washing machine, some laundry detergent was added, and the washing began. Lu Ze also went into the bathroom and took a good shower.

After taking a shower and changing into clean clothes, I went downstairs to the Dili Fresh Market to buy groceries, cooked a meal for myself, turned on the TV, and sat on the sofa watching TV and drinking beer.

Lu Ze's phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID and saw that it was Gao Wanzhi calling.

"Hey, Sister Gao, what's up?"

"Lu Ze, you've moved into the company dormitory, right? Are you busy tomorrow?"

"No, do you need me to go to the company tomorrow?"

"Yes, your agent has been finalized. Come to the company tomorrow morning and meet with him."

"."

Lu Ze is about to turn his life around. From now on, he will sever all ties with his former self and will no longer be an extra. Suddenly, he feels a bit emotional. As he writes, it actually resembles his own personal experience. The protagonist, who is not based on himself, actually resonates with him at a certain point in his life. Fate is truly amazing.
