This star is too fierce

Chapter 52, The Millennium, New Beginnings

April 1999, 12, evening.

"Dragon Lanterns to Celebrate the Millennium" New Year's Eve party, Cheng Long, Zhang Guorong, and Tan Yonglin celebrated the Millennium together, Guo Yucheng, and the king of tomorrow will meet again, Wang Jingwen is a few seats away from Xie Tingfeng, between Xie Tingfeng and Zhang Bozhi is Mo Wenwei, Next to Zhang Bozhi is Chen Xiaodong... It can be said that the stars are shining.

At the same time, the filming of "The Sword of the Three Young Masters" has been completed during the day today, and is currently holding a finale banquet at the hotel.

Generally, after filming a film, in order to draw a perfect end to the work, the director and screenwriter will hold a wrap-up banquet to celebrate, echoing the opening ceremony before filming.

That is, "scattered meal".

After this meal, everyone went their separate ways.

Although Lu Bu has filmed four films, this is the first time to participate in the finale banquet, because "Little Li Fei Dao", "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and "Youth Bao Qingtian" are all his own roles and left the group after finishing the filming. When the play was finished, he was already in another crew.

I was curious at first, but when I arrived at the restaurant, there was nothing special about it, just a group of people eating and drinking together.

"Brother, this cup is over, and my sister will vote for you in the future!"

An investor also came to the wrap-up banquet, female, 50 to [-] years old, seeing Lu Bu's bright eyes, she kept looking for him to drink.

"Thank you, Mr. Wang. Instead of wine with tea, I'll finish this cup first."

"You really can't drink?"

"For those who practice martial arts, the body is the most important thing, and they don't smoke or drink. I hope you will forgive me."

Lu Bu is a principled person. Alcoholism hurt his body before, so if you say quit drinking, you should stop drinking first, and don't drink if you can.

"Okay, sister doesn't force you, just drink tea, come!"

Lu Bu drank the tea in his cup in one gulp.

To be honest, drinking tea is much more uncomfortable than drinking alcohol, and my stomach bloats.

And he is the second male lead. At the main table, all the leading actors, director, assistant director, screenwriter, producer, etc. all want to have a drink. Not long after the meal started, he ran to the bathroom twice.

And because today is special, it is New Year's Eve and the millennium is about to enter, so everyone is in a better mood.

"In the future, if I don't understand anything, I will ask you. Don't answer my call."

"no problem."

"Otherwise, I will worship you as my teacher!"

"This is not necessary."

"Do you think I have a bad foundation?"

"No no."

……

Especially He Zhonghua, after he was half drunk, he pulled Lu Bu to chat and respect him in various ways, and even wanted to worship him as a teacher and learn martial arts.

"Abu, I respect you." Yu Feihong saw that he was entangled by He Zhonghua, and the pot of tea had run out, so he wanted to pull him out of the sea of ​​suffering.

"You should drink less too." Lu Bu clinked the glass with her, she had been toasted a lot just now, and her face was already flushed red.

"Yeah." Yu Feihong took a sip, then lowered his voice and said, "You just have to act like you mean it."

"Thank you." Lu Bu nodded slightly, and said in a low voice, "It's okay, I'm just tea, at most I just need to run to the bathroom a few more times."

Yu Feihong put down his wine glass and asked softly, "Are you leaving tomorrow?"

Lu Bu nodded and said, "Well, let's go back to Chongqing." Then he smiled and said, "You call me 'Abu' now, I have no choice but to change my name."

The name "Abu" was called by Hu Jing and Zeng Lai, and Yu Feihong called it that way. It feels a little more intimate: "Aren't you joking, do you really want to change your name to Lu Bu?"

Lu Bu's eyes froze, his temperament changed instantly, and he asked, "Am I not like Lu Bu?"

Before Yu Feihong could speak, He Zhonghua said first, "Like, from the first time I saw you, I thought you looked like you, and you must be more handsome than Lu Bu."

Lu Bu was speechless, was I ugly before?
However, upon hearing their conversation, Jin Demao said, "Little Lu, you have to be careful about this. It's not that the name 'Lu Bu' is bad, but that some names can't be suppressed by ordinary people, and various situations may arise."

Lu Bu smiled and said, "Director Jin, other people may have this concern, but you don't need to worry about me."

Just kidding, he can't hold back the name, so who can hold it?
Jin Demao kindly reminded him, but this is someone else's private matter after all, so it's not good to interfere too much, so he didn't say anything else.

This meal was late, and I saw the New Year's Eve fireworks when I came out of the restaurant.

Lu Bu looked at the gorgeous sky and was filled with emotion.

From this moment on, everyone will go their separate ways, join new crews and meet new actors. As time goes by, this so-called "friendship" will gradually fade away, and eventually become familiar strangers.

For him, the millennium was a new beginning.

The next day, return to Chongqing.

Lu Bu hasn't been so relaxed for a long time. He doesn't have to worry about food, drink, or military affairs.

"Go change your name!"

"Brother, people have a holiday on New Year's Day."

Lu Bu was stunned and forgot about this.

This new year doesn't seem to be going well...

I can't just wait for these few days, so I asked Liu Liang to buy some gifts, and went to see the coach and Zhang Jin's parents.

After getting a new household registration book and ID card, Lu Bu was in a very happy mood.

The two rushed to Hangzhou again.

Lu Bu wants to buy a house.

It's time to have a home.

The remuneration for several films, plus the money for two advertisements, the full amount is not enough, but it is no problem to pay a down payment and mortgage to buy.

From 97 to 99, the housing price in Hangzhou was around 2000 yuan per flat.

Lu Bu didn't like tall buildings, so he chose a villa.

Expensive is a lot more expensive, but it is clean, and it will be much more convenient to invite friends to play in the future.

In fact, he was very interested in the courtyard house in Yanjing, but his wallet was not rich, so he could only talk about it later.

Lu Bu then went to see Yuan Heping, and when he came back, he gave Liu Liang a big red envelope and gave him another month's leave.

He wants to rest and start work after the Spring Festival.

After some operations, there is not much money left.

The villa has no money to renovate, so I can't live in it for the time being, but after a lot of work, I returned to the rental house in Hengdian.

When I'm not working, I always feel that time passes very slowly.

Every day, besides exercising and practicing, Lu Bu spends the rest of his time reading books to enrich himself.

Since the beginning of the year, the entertainment industry has been very lively.

Luo Baoyou wrote "Love Song 2000" in advance, "a dream that is about to wake up after a long absence for a thousand years, as old as a myth";
Laiming released a song "Happy 2000", "A thousand days, a thousand changes, and a thousand years together, everything is in front of me, I will take the route I want to go";
Even Park Sook has a song "I'm going to 2000", "I'm leaving, I'm going to 2000, I'm leaving, come on boys and girls";
……

Zhang Ziyi sang "Welcome Spring In" solo at the opening of the Spring Festival Gala;
Zhao Wei and Lin Xinru, who became popular overnight with the return of pearls, were also invited to the stage of the Spring Festival Gala. Little Swallow was a little busy, hosting, singing, and guest sketches; Ziwei and Cui Yongyuan sang "Liu Liu's she".

And the funniest skit in this year's Spring Festival Gala still belongs to Zhao Benshan and Song Dandan. Their performance of "Part-time Worker", the line "I don't know you if you take off your vest?" made people laugh out loud and became a classic.

……

Everyone is welcoming the arrival of 2000 in different ways.

As for Lu Bu.

I don't feel too special, I should eat and sleep.

After the Spring Festival.

Liu Liang brought him the first good news of the year.
