Chapter 173 Shi Tiesheng came to Xijing
“Yes, some time ago I had a friend named Li Chengru, who was the stage manager of the "Journey to the West" crew. He called me and asked me to play the role of the king of the daughter country in "Journey to the West". role, but I haven’t agreed yet,” Zhu Lin said on the phone.
"Why don't you agree?" Fang Minghua asked.
On the other side of the phone, Zhu Lin hesitated for a moment and then said: "Minghua, we are old friends, so I won't hide it. The king of the daughter country is just a supporting role, and his role is only in a few episodes. I I don’t want to go.”
Fang Minghua understood.
Now Zhu Lin has made several movies in a row, all of which are the heroines, and she also won the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actress last year. She can be said to be at the height of her popularity in the film industry, surpassing Liu Xiaoqing, who was once the leading actress in the film industry.
I don’t know how many directors have extended an olive branch to her. Now that she is asked to act in a TV series that mainly focuses on men, she naturally feels a little unhappy.
This is human nature.
But Fang Minghua would like to advise, this is a classic character, don’t leave any regrets to those born in the 80s and 90s.
So he said: "Sister Zhu Lin, do you have a schedule now?"
"Yes, I've been free recently."
"Then I suggest you take this role. You have basically acted in modern dramas before. Try costumes, maybe you can become a classic."
< br>Costume?
Zhu Lin was a little moved after hearing this. He had never acted in a costume drama.
How about just listening to him?
"Okay, then I'll listen to you, but Minghua, if you don't perform well, don't laugh at me then." Zhu Lin said.
"How could it be? I will definitely perform well!"
After hanging up the phone from Zhu Lin, Fang Minghua stopped thinking about the awards. Now he had to think about Shi Tiesheng's coming to Xijing.
Since we promised, we have to get it done. The most important thing is to have a car.
Shi Tiesheng is a disabled person. It is inconvenient to go out and do anything in a wheelchair.
Finding a car depends on Zhao Hongjun, so Fang Minghua picks up the phone and calls directly. After explaining what happened, Zhao Hongjun on the other end of the phone said: "I can help you find a car. It will last for two days, no problem, but there is no driver." , you have to figure it out yourself."
"It doesn't matter. , just find the car, you don’t have to worry about anything else."
"What? Ask Tangtang to drive?"
"Tangtang is a little busy recently, I have no time to rehearse a new dance. Drive.”
“Can you drive?”
"Let's learn. You drive the car over and find a place with few people to teach me." Fang Minghua said with a smile.
"Okay, I'll do my best and call you when the car is ready."
"Okay, as soon as possible. Do you know anyone from the traffic police brigade? Also think of a way Get me a driver’s license.”
“Oh shit! You don’t know how to drive but you still want a license? Okay, as long as you can drive on your own, I’ll get one for you!” The Red Army is very fast in doing things. When Fang Minghua was about to get off work the next afternoon, he received a call from him and said that he had borrowed a car. After dinner, I would drive to your house and pick you up to find an open place to practice. "
"Okay, no problem!"
After eating at home, Fang Minghua said to his parents, and happily went downstairs. As soon as he left the gate of the Planning Commission Family Courtyard, he heard someone honking the horn, and then he saw Then Zhao Hongjun stuck his head out of the window of a white car and motioned for him to get in the car.
It turned out to be a brand new Santana!
“Okay, Red Army.” Fang Minghua sat down in the passenger seat: “Your unit is equipped with one?”
“Our unit has two, but I, the deputy, can’t turn. "Zhao Hongjun laughed at himself and said: "It was borrowed from a subordinate unit."
"Tsk tsk. It's good to have power."
"Wouldn't it be better to have money? Buy one and drive it however you want. You can borrow it as you like!"
The two said , Zhao Hongjun had already started the car and drove north, passed Xijing Railway Station and arrived near Taihua South Road. This was later the Daming Palace National Heritage Park, but now it is still relatively desolate, with few people and cars.
"Just here." Zhao Hongjun parked the car on the side of the road and explained to Fang Minghua: "This is the accelerator, this is the brake, and this is the clutch. There is a formula for driving a car called one step, "Two hang, three open, four press, five release, six watch, seven plus" Zhao Hongjun was spitting out words while Fang Minghua pretended to listen carefully.
Fortunately, before I came to this era, my first car was a manual transmission Lavida, so I am very familiar with these things.
But you have to pretend to listen.
Zhao Hongjun talked a lot, looked around and saw that there was no one on the road, and said, "Would you like to try?"
"Okay." The two changed places.
“Get familiar with the essentials first, don’t drive in a hurry, and don’t use the handbrake!” Zhao Hongjun warned.
Fang Minghua first pretended to be familiar with it for a while, but finally got impatient and simply pressed the clutch, put the gear in, released the handbrake, and then stepped on the accelerator. The car quickly started and slowly drove forward.
"Holy shit, shit." Zhao Hongjun was so frightened that he said several shits in a row, preparing to stop Fang Minghua's recklessness, but when he saw that he was driving steadily, he slowly felt relieved.
“Minghua, you know how to drive.”
“Didn’t I just learn from you?”
“Damn it. I didn’t expect your article to be so good. You can learn to drive so quickly, you’re a genius”
Fang Minghua laughed "hehe" twice without saying anything.
For the first time driving, Fang Minghua naturally couldn't show off. He just ran at a speed of 30 yards per hour for a while, and then under Zhao Hongjun's "guidance", he learned to reverse and park sideways.
After two consecutive afternoons of tossing, Fang Minghua made his move.
It feels so refreshing to drive and stroll through the city streets, enjoying the summer evening breeze.
I have to buy a car in the future.
Do the math.
Not counting domestic royalties, the total royalties from "The Legend of Wukong" in Xiangjiang, Baodao, and Japan are already over 100,000.
I can’t afford a brand new Santana, but I can buy a Lada 2105.
But now is not the time. I am considered a member of the system, and suddenly having a car worth hundreds of thousands is a bit shocking.
Just two more years.
Sun Lizhe from Yanjing also acted quickly. He called Fang Minghua a week later and had already bought a direct ticket to Xijing this afternoon. It was expected to arrive at around four o'clock tomorrow afternoon.
"Okay, pay attention to safety on the road, I will pick you up at the station."
The next afternoon, Fang Minghua drove the Santana borrowed from Zhao Hongjun, went straight to the train station, and bought I bought a platform ticket and entered the station. Not long after, a train from Yanjing slowly entered the station.
Xijing is a big station, and there were many people getting off the train. It was not until the last passengers were almost gone that Fang Minghua saw a man slowly getting out of the carriage carrying another disabled man on his back.
"Tie Sheng, Li Zhe!" Fang Minghua called out, ran over quickly, and took the wheelchair handed by the conductor from the car. The two of them put Shi Tie Sheng in the wheelchair and pushed him towards the exit of the station. Go.
"Is the journey going smoothly?" Fang Minghua asked with concern.
"Fortunately, Lizhe bought a hard sleeper, and when he got on the train, he asked the conductor to move him to the lower berth, which was very convenient." Shi Tiesheng said with a smile: "It's too troublesome for you two."
"What's the trouble? The conditions now are much better than when we jumped in line." Fang Minghua said with a smile: "When you come to Xijing, you don't have to worry about anything. Just listen to my arrangements."
"Okay, okay, I will listen to you!"
"Let's go to the place where we stay first, the guest house. We’ve contacted each other, and then we’ll have a meal. After the meal, I’ll take you to meet someone.”
"Who?"
"Of course it's Chen Ximi."
