Huayu: From charlatan to great entertainer

Chapter 71 White Lotus Dream Shattered

May 2002, 5, Tianjin Foreign Studies University, outside the studio of "The Golden Age".

Jay Chou has already rushed to Beijing to receive jazz drum training at the Central Conservatory of Music.

Lu Kuan came back to reshoot a few shots of Ouyang Yujian, and then brought Liu Yifei back to the crew to officially start filming.

"Master, a bowl of gabacai and a set of pancakes!"

Lu Kuan, who had just finished his morning exercise, glanced at Uncle Niu's stall and added, "Give me two goose eggs!"

"Wow! Young man, you're eating so extravagantly today."

Uncle Niu, who hadn’t seen him for a long time, was amazed by his beauty. He could get a goose egg for 2 yuan, and they were all picked from the wild!
Concubine Liu Yi followed him around like a shadow and asked for money: "Master, you don't know, he has made a fortune recently!"

"I want the same!"

After hesitating for a while, he said, "I just want a big goose egg..."

She looked at her figure a little worriedly. Bai Xiuzhu's cheongsams have been too tight for her recently.

Lu Kuan teased the little girl while slurping his gabacai: "You're growing, eat more, you're not fat at all."

Concubine Liu Yi looked at him in disbelief: "You can also say nice things?"

"That's right, you're not fat, you're fat but not greasy."

"roll!"

Lu Kuan looked at Liu Yifei, whom he hadn't seen for a while. The girl seemed to have grown taller. She was far from being fat, but instead looked a little slimmer.

"Hey, I said."

"There are so many reporters outside, why don't you meet any of them? Isn't this the time to increase your profile? It can also advertise our crew."

Boss Lu made a zipper gesture to his mouth and said, "I've received hush money. I have to be honest when I'm out there."

If it weren't for the 600 million, I, Boss Lu, would have scolded them to death.

"Xiao Liu, please do me a favor these two days."

"No help." A straightforward refusal.

"The breakfast debt of 120 yuan is written off."

This girl really can eat. During the ten days that Lu Kuan was not on the crew, she spent more than 10 yuan on breakfast every day.

"Say!"

Boss Lu looked around the studio with lingering fear: "If you have nothing to do today, stay by my side and don't leave. Be my shield."

"Tsk, aren't you Director Lu quite a playboy? You used to have such a good relationship with Sister Dong, but now you're going to keep her at a distance?"

That’s right, Miss Dong must be regretting it these past two days.

She was just about to sell her house and car to leverage her position and invested all her money in Lukuan, a low-priced concept stock, but was scared away by a limit down.

Unexpectedly, she found that more than a dozen single-digit stocks could not be opened, and there was a huge queue to buy one, which made her completely confused.

"Don't talk nonsense! I'm your boss now!"

As the Lu Kuan crew finally saw the light at the end of the tunnel, the equity transfer and business registration of Hongxingwu also "miraculously" accelerated.

He has temporarily become a shareholder of Liu Yifei's agency with a 10% stake. If "Whiplash" successfully enters the main competition unit of Venice, he will acquire another 10%.

Concubine Liu Yi said arrogantly: "I don't care about you. It depends on my mood whether I help you or not!"

After dinner, the two returned to the crew together. They deliberately made a big circle outside the studio and passed through several prop cars in order to avoid the reporters who were chasing them.

"Xiaolu, wait!"

Lu Kuan and Liu Yifei looked at each other silently. How long had this woman been waiting here? As soon as she came back, she was caught in a wait-and-see situation.

Miss Dong's hair was a little messy today. I don't know if she didn't sleep well or if something sad happened. Her eyes were slightly red, and she looked at Lu Kuan with her long eyelashes fluttering. She looked so pitiful, "Fei Yi, I want to say a few words to Lu Kuan. If it's convenient for you..."

"Ouch!" Concubine Liu Yi squatted on the ground, holding her ankle tightly.

"The road is wide. I sprained my ankle and it hurts!"

Boss Lu's mouth twitched as he watched her poor acting, just as upset as when he couldn't cry when he was trying to trick Chen Guanxi!
The basic skills still need to be practiced!

He winked at the little girl, then turned back to Bai Lianhua and said with a smile, "Dong Jie, Xiao Liu seems to have sprained her ankle. I'll take her back. Let's talk later."

Dong Jie stared blankly at the departing young man and woman. The tall Concubine Liu Yi was half leaning against the road, her slightly exposed profile revealing a charming smile.

Damn Liu Yifei! You green tea! You seduced my man and didn't even betray him, right? Why did you hurt me like this?
Bai Lianhua clutched her chest as if her heart was pounding, and tearfully looked at the girl leaning on Lu Kuan's shoulder. That spot should have belonged to her...

"Xixi, the road is wide, you guys..."

Su Chang stared blankly at the young men and women who were walking towards her laughing and joking, and felt that the filter of her best friend in her heart was shattered!

Concubine Liu Yi withdrew her arm from Lu Kuan's entanglement as if she had been electrocuted, and held her forehead in pain, saying, "Changchang, I sprained my ankle, come and help me."

"Oh oh!" Su Chang, who didn't understand what was going on, hurried forward.

Boss Lu looked at the two of them walking away thoughtfully, and inexplicably felt that what Zhang Wuji's mother said was right.

The little girl can make up lies without blinking an eye. What will she be like when she grows up?

Lu Kuan leisurely returned to his room to pack his luggage when there was a sudden knock on the door.

Oh shit! Could it be Miss Dong is chasing me? It’s broad daylight now. What if I can’t help myself? All my efforts will be wasted.

"Which one?"

"Me! Bingbing."

Lu Kuan opened the door a crack in uncertainty, and the fully armed girl from Qingdao squeezed in.

Seeing her patting her chest and breathing a sigh of relief, it was obvious that she had also escaped the siege of guns and cameras.

"A rare guest, please come to the bed!"

"Bah! You only know how to bully others!"

Bingbing blushed and spat, she was just trying to show off. If you have the guts, come and do it!
"Why are you here?" Boss Lu didn't treat her as a outsider and continued to pack his clothes.

Fan Bingbing is such a worldly-wise person that he pushed Boss Lu away with disdain and kindly helped him fold his clothes.

"You grown men are useless. You can't even fold your clothes."

As he said this, he began to tidy up his underwear with a calm face, which made Boss Lu, who was known for his thick-skinnedness, feel a little embarrassed.

Master, this is a master!
Playing with ambiguity, the level of seduction has reached a new level.

"I just came back from wrapping up filming. I couldn't be with you when you got into trouble before, so I came to see you."

Lu Kuan was happy and relaxed, lighting a cigarette leisurely, or saying that Bingbing was much higher in rank than Bai Lianhua.

She is one year younger than Dong Jie, and her debut and star journey were much more bumpy than Dong Jie's, but her emotional intelligence and methods already give us some clues of the future Fan Bingbing.

When Boss Lu was attacked by fans of Eagle King, Xie, Chen and others, it was impossible that Fan Bingbing had not received interviews, but he simply said nothing.

It's impossible to say that she has some superstitious filter towards Lu Kuan that is deep-rooted. She just wrote a song for her and knew that he was good friends with Mei Yanfang.

At this time, Fan Bingbing, who has defected to the Hong Kong circle and relies on the Hong Kong crew for his livelihood, can keep his mouth shut instead of foolishly expressing his stance in advance to flatter the Hong Kong circle. This is the difference!

I took Fan Bingbing's car back to Peking. The latter also understood the true meaning of moistening things silently, and left like a gust of wind.

Lu Kuan returned to his senior brother's apartment and the phone in his pocket vibrated. It was an unfamiliar number.

"Hello, Master Lu, I'm Zhao Wei."
