Huayu: From charlatan to great entertainer

Chapter 86 Brother, I want a cigarette

On June 2002, 6, Lu Kuan and some crew members rushed to Hong Kong.

This was to take care of Mei Yanfang, who was unable to travel due to illness, and to complete her guest appearance of a few minutes in the play.

In addition to the necessary crew members, Liu Xiaoli and her daughter also accompanied them.

After Lu Kuan officially acquired shares in Red Star Studios, introducing Mei Yanfang's music resources in Hong Kong to Liu Yifei was one of the conditions at the time, and now is the time to fulfill it.

He slightly modified the script and placed the meeting place between the female lawyer and the male protagonist and his son at home, so as to avoid the need to find another set.

This way, filming can start directly at Sister Mei's home in Heng'an Pavilion. With Mei Yanfang's many years of acting experience, this scene is not even a side dish.

"Brother, if you don't have a job, why don't you come to visit your sister?"

Mei Yanfang's face looked even rosier than the last time we met. The blog had become her big toy, a platform for her to interact and communicate with her thousands of music and movie fans.

She just sits in front of the computer wearing glasses every day, and Wang Minhui has to urge her to get up and walk around and exercise regularly.

Liu Xiaoli looked at Mei Yanfang and Lu Kuan hugging each other affectionately, and she knew in her heart that he was not lying and that their relationship was indeed very close.

Lu Kuan gave a brief introduction to the main creators of the crew from the mainland and arranged for them to set up the scenery and set up the camera.

Liu Yifei gave a gift at her mother's suggestion:

"Hello, Sister Mei. I'm Liu Yifei. This is a handmade incense for you. It's a blend of tea tree, geranium, and cedar. It's natural, non-irritating, and has a calming effect."

Mei Yanfang took the gift and looked at the delicate little girl with some surprise.

She has a slender pink neck and a pretty face. She is wearing a light purple floral dress and open-toed low-heeled sandals. Her toes are painted like red beans, which is very cute.

"Xiaolu, this is the girl you mentioned, right? She's so pretty!"

"Yes, I came here this time to see if there is any possibility of developing my career in music."

Mei Yanfang smiled and said, "With your looks, singing is not that difficult. It's very simple."

Well... that's you. At least the later Xiao Liu didn't become famous.

As if knowing that Lu Kuan valued this little girl very much, Mei Yanfang politely took her hand and said to Liu Xiaoli with a smile, "Ms. Liu, your daughter is really amazing. She has grown up to be so beautiful that she surpasses all the girls of the same generation in Hong Kong."

Liu Xiaoli smiled and said a few humble words. Liu Yifei said sweetly, "Sister Mei, please call me Xixi. Besides singing, I also want to ask you for advice on acting!"

Mei Yanfang smiled even more happily: "Xixi, have you seen the movie I acted in?"

"Of course, I like Ruhua in Rouge, Yingjie in A Better Tomorrow, and Gu Manlu in Half a Lifelong Romance very much!"

Boss Lu had some respect for her, and it was he who suggested sending incense, but he didn't teach her how to flatter!

The little girl raised her eyebrows proudly when she saw Lu Kuan's playful eyes. She did do some work on this trip.

Furthermore, after this period of training and the hawk-like guidance of Lu Kuan, who was no less than the perverted mentor in "Whiplash", the little girl was able to get a glimpse of the acting field and truly learn and improve consciously.

Judging from her many later works, her talent may be considered mediocre in the entertainment industry where talented people emerge in large numbers, but her personal determination and dedication to her acting career are unquestionable.

This is also why Lu Kuan thinks she is worth cultivating. No matter what, you have to have both talent and hard work.

Everything is ready, and Lu Kuan's command begins.

Mei Yanfang, dressed as a professional lawyer, began to negotiate with drummer Jay Chou and his son.

"ACTION!"

"The main reason I visited you today is..."

Before he could finish his sentence, something unexpected happened on the field!

"Miss Mei!"

Mei Yanfang suddenly felt a sharp pain in her lower abdomen, beads of sweat dripped from her nose, and she collapsed in agony onto her chair. Jay Chou, her co-star, was the first to react and rushed over to support her.

Wang Minhui rushed in from outside and called the medical team while screaming, "Quick! Help Sister Mei to the bedroom!"

Lu Kuan picked up Mei Yanfang and felt that she was as light and soft as a ball of cotton. She was shaking with pain and her teeth were chattering.

As soon as he gently put Mei Yanfang on the bed, she began to twitch violently.

"Xiao Liu! Help!"

Concubine Liu Yi heard his hoarse shouting outside and rushed in.

"Help me hold Sister Mei's jaw in place so she doesn't bite her tongue."

After saying that, he rushed out of the room to find Wang Minhui. There should be pethidine or painkillers at home.

"okay!"

The little girl had never seen such a situation before. She didn't know how to put her hands and was so anxious that she almost cried.

Seeing Mei Yanfang, who had just embraced her lovingly and affectionately, looking in agony, Concubine Liu Yi hardened her heart and directly put her hand into her mouth...

The doctor arrived quickly, and Lu Kuan, Wang Minhui and Liu Yifei went out to wait.

"Why is this happening?"

Wang Minhui glanced at Liu Yifei and hesitated to speak, but Lu Kuan urged her, "It's okay, go ahead."

"They prescribed her a new medication in the US that needs to be used with hormones. Otherwise, she'll be in so much pain that she'll have to have this every two weeks."

Lu Kuan said sternly, "Then why don't you fight?"

It was the first time that Wang Minhui saw him so furious with his hair and beard standing on end, and she began to sob as she spoke.

"Take hormones and they'll affect your skin and make you gain weight. It'll be hard to recover after several years."

"She's worried that it will affect the filming of your movie, and that it will affect her comeback a year later..."

"What she cares about most is her fans. What she cares about most is not being able to continue singing and performing. I can't persuade her, wuwuwuwu..."

Wang Minhui is Mei Yanfang's closest person. Since Mei Yanfang fell ill, she has been under more pressure than anyone else.

Wang Minhui respected her and loved her. She could not bear to see her suffer, nor could she bear to let her lose her acting career, which would almost take away the soul of this wandering singer!
Liu Yifei started to cry and squatted down to hug Wang Minhui, who was sitting on the ground. "Sister Minhui, don't cry. Sister Mei will definitely get better."

Listening to Mei Yanfang's painful voice in the house, her soul was dazed for a moment.

How can someone devote themselves to their artistic life to such an extent?
"Sister Mei asked you to come in."

Mei Yanfang's personal doctor walked out of the room with sweat on his forehead.

Mei Yanfang, who was resting with her eyes closed on the bed, looked at Lu Kuan calmly.

"Xiaolu, get your men ready and continue shooting."

Lu Kuan's face turned pale: "No! Your body..."

"Be quiet! Do as I say."

When talking about work, Mei Yanfang seemed like a different person.

Or perhaps he felt that his tone was a little harsh, and after a while he weakly raised the corner of his mouth towards Lu Kuan.

"Little brother, give me a cigarette."

　Brother, give me a cigarette, is that what you say?
　　I remember saying this when I was on a business trip to Foshan a long time ago. If there are any mistakes, please correct me. (Thank you for your advice, because I changed it, your book review was deleted by the system. Thank you)
