I am very poor

If Huo Yushou and Huo Yufei are somewhat alike, then Huo Yubo is not like a family member at all. He is plainly dressed, ordinary, not too tall, and his appearance is inferior to his two cousins Quite a few, but the polite temperament on his body is exactly the same.

Or maybe it is precisely because of the lack of these overly eye-catching external conditions, compared with Huo Yufei and Huo Yushou, Huo Yubo is easier to get close to.

Just like now, he took the initiative to say hello to Gu Cheng, pulled a chair and sat down naturally, and asked him when he would arrive, did he take a break, etc., neither making people feel unfamiliar nor too too abrupt.

Gu Cheng didn't quite understand what the other party meant when he came to talk to him.Huo Yufei occasionally mentioned his family to Gu Cheng, but rarely mentioned a specific person. Of course, he also mentioned the three words Huo Yubo, but it was only in passing.Said that he had a cousin who gave up family inheritance and devoted himself to public welfare.As for Huo Yubo's devotion to public welfare, Huo Yufei didn't make any statement, neither agreed nor opposed, just mentioned here, casually.

The longer they spend together, the more Gu Cheng realizes that his little sunflower is not as sunny as it appears on the surface. On the contrary, there may be many things that he never wants to say.But just like Huo Yufei didn't ask him to ask how he grew up in the orphanage, Gu Cheng was very considerate and didn't ask about it.

At this time, he thought very positively, it doesn't matter, as long as I'm by his side.

Huo Yubo was very friendly, and after exchanging pleasantries, he casually asked about Gu Cheng's family and school, as if the elders in the family cared about the younger generation.But Huo Yubo is already 35 years old this year, so he is indeed an elder.

Therefore, Gu Cheng's attitude is also very polite. When Huo Yubo speaks, he listens carefully, but when he mentions his own affairs, he often only mentions them in a few words.

Such a cautious attitude was noticed by the other party.

Huo Yubo looked at Huo Yufei who was talking to others not far away, and smiled: "Don't be nervous, the family knows about your affairs, and so do I."

Everyone at home knows?What does it mean?

Gu Cheng picked up the water and put it in his hand, waiting for him to speak further.

"However, no one has dared to tell the old man yet. The problem involved is a bit big, and it's not easy to handle..." Huo Yubo changed the subject, "Since Yu Fei wants to be with you, let him figure out how to solve it himself. As a man, you have to be responsible for what you choose. Yu Fei didn't have much interest in things since he was a child. He just saw you together and his attention was all on you. I thought you should have a good relationship?"

Gu Cheng affirmed: "It is very good."

Huo Yubo couldn't help laughing, and patted the sand on his pants: "That's good, as long as Yufei can handle the old man. But the thinking of the grandfather's generation is different from ours, and he is very serious about some things that we don't care about."

Gu Cheng said, "It's understandable."

Huo Yubo looked at him and said with a smile, "Really? I can't understand it."

He took a piece of ice from the ice bucket, and drew a circle on the wooden table: "When I was young, the old man took us to read "Das Kapital", and let us talk about our opinions one by one, which ones are right and which ones are wrong. But, Grandpa himself pursues elite centralization, so from my father and Yufei’s father, to the next generation Yushou, Yufei, and Yulai, they all believe in elite centralization. I may be a bit of a deviant. From the age of eight to now, I have written " I have read Das Kapital no less than ten times.”

The small ice cubes quickly melted in his hands, leaving circles of water stains on the table.

Huo Yubo suddenly asked: "What do you think?"

Gu Cheng thought about it for a while, and said, "They all have different starting points."

Huo Yubo smiled slightly: "Yes, grandpa advocates the centralization of power by elites. He has a strong family concept and is also enthusiastic about charity. So far, the family's investment in charity has exceeded the output value of small domestic enterprises for decades... But It is not contradictory to maximize profits. He believes that social wealth is in the hands of a few people, which is scientific and reasonable, and recognizes the Matthew effect. This is also the reason why I gave up inheriting the family, and I advocate communism and democracy.”

At this point, he seemed to be in a daze, paused for a few seconds, and then continued: "Of course, this is only based on my personal ideals, and it does not mean that communism will definitely make the lives of most people in the world better than they are now. I have seen the life of the people living at the bottom. It is very unimaginable. I was greatly touched. I have to think about what I can do... Of course, what I want to say is not this. Although the old man loves the juniors very much, This kind of favor is by no means letting go. Your biggest resistance is not gender but identity. In addition to your own character and ability, the family also values ​​your wealth and status, which will influence the old man to a great extent Attitude."

Huo Yubo threw the last bit of ice on the ground, took out the napkin and wiped his hands, looked at Huo Yufei who was talking shoulder to shoulder with Li Ze, and raised his chin: "Believe it or not, if Yufei's boyfriend today is Li Ze, it's a different situation."

He threw aside the napkin that wiped his fingers, pushed away the chair and stood up: "This kind of concept is quite difficult for me to understand."

Gu Cheng raised his eyes lightly, but didn't say anything, his expression had already turned cold, which made his facial features look extraordinarily sharp.

He replied calmly: "Thank you for coming to tell me this."

Huo Yubo looked at it for a while: "You and Yu Fei have completely different information backgrounds. I guess you will have huge differences on many issues. I suggest you talk to him earlier."

Out of the corner of his eye, Huo Yufei saw Huo Yubo go away, whispered something to Li Ze, and apologized to the other friends: "Excuse me."

After speaking, he turned around and walked behind Gu Cheng while putting down his cup.

Reach out and cover his eyes: "Baby, guess who I am."

Gu Cheng broke off the hand covering his eyes and did not let go for a while.

"What's the matter?" Huo Yufei asked him, "I just saw my cousin walk away, and he came to talk to you specially?"

Gu Cheng nodded absent-mindedly, and suddenly pulled his two hands into his arms.

Huo Yufei was pulled by him, his posture was very awkward, he just sat down next to Gu Cheng, and asked, "What did he tell you?"

Gu Cheng glanced at him, and asked irrelevantly: "I want to kiss you."

Huo Yufei:?

He looked around and joked, "Now? Here?"

Unexpectedly, Gu Cheng nodded affirmatively.

Huo Yufei was startled, as if he wanted to ask something, but he still swallowed the question first, and nodded first: "Yes."

Gu Cheng stared at him for a long time, but finally did not move, and let go of Huo Yufei's hand: "Forget it, I won't kiss."

Huo Yufei's eyes widened immediately: "Why do you dislike me, baby?"

He immediately put the other party's hands into his arms, with a natural smile on the corner of his mouth: "How about I kiss you instead?"

Gu Cheng suddenly withdrew his hand, and sat a little further away: "Do you have any business to do?"

Huo Yufei's expression didn't know how hurt he was.

Immediately pulled the other party up: "Yes, you are my business."

He took Gu Cheng on a hot air balloon ride, and played a few other games. Huo Yufei discovered that his little rabbit was actually very smart, no matter what it was, he could always teach it.After getting off the jet ski, he happily hugged Gu Cheng's waist, asking him to promise to accompany him to go snorkeling in Sipadan in the future.

It was getting dark by this time, and there was no one else around them.

Gu Cheng turned around and hugged Huo Yufei very tightly, as if hiding some treasure in his arms.

Then it was kissed.

They kissed behind the dark rocks.

A BBQ has just been set up on the beach not far away, and under the gorgeous lights, there is a lot of people.

Huo Yufei pressed Gu Cheng against the stone and kissed him seriously for a while before he let go. Just at this moment, the moon appeared from behind the clouds, covering the sea with a layer of shimmering sequins, and it seemed to be reflected in his eyes. The water was shining, flickering and shaking, very bright and beautiful.

The surroundings are quiet and quiet, only the sound of the waves lapping.

The sound of their breathing mixed with the sound of the waves was very clear.

Huo Yufei looked into Gu Cheng's eyes, not giving him room to evade: "Are you in a bad mood today?"

He even omits the question mark outright.

Gu Cheng was silent for a while, but still nodded, but he also emphasized: "Only a little."

"Well," Huo Yufei put his arms around him and pressed his forehead together, "tell me, okay?"

His voice is very serious, completely different from the usual jokes, and he is also very gentle, making it impossible for people to refuse.

Gu Cheng had no choice. He paused for a few seconds and asked Huo Yufei, "What do you think is the biggest obstacle between us?"

Biggest obstacle?

He immediately thought of something that they hadn't made it to the last step until now.

Huo Yufei rubbed his nose, and apologized: "It's because I can't adjust my mentality for a while, baby, give me some time, I will perform well."

Gu Cheng's attention stayed on the word "mentality", and he thought a little more for a while.

Then Huo Yufei called again: "Baby?"

Gu Cheng came back to his senses and repeated Huo Yubo's words.

Huo Yufei gave a "hmm" and said, "I have also considered the issues he mentioned."

Gu Cheng looked at him.

Huo Yufei touched Gu Cheng's nose and then his ears.

In the end, I said four simple words: "It will be resolved."

Neither of them said anything for a moment.

For Huo Yufei, the huge difference in background and philosophy between the two people that Huo Yubo pointed out was not a problem for him at all.

Gu Cheng...but he doesn't necessarily think so.

Before that, what he saw more was the material gap between each other, but today he saw more things.

Spiritual and intellectual distance.

He has never thought about how to change the world, nor would he have read "Das Kapital" since he was a child.He is trapped by his own origin and background, unable to see the structure and level of the world, and in the final analysis, it varies from person to person.

He doesn’t treat investment as a toy, gaming as a game, rock climbing, diving, horse racing, wingsuit flying, piano, violin, good or bad artwork, or even sculpture, painting, architecture at all. ...Everything that Huo Yufei was accustomed to was strange and out of reach for him.

The way they see the world is completely different.

The way of thinking about the problem is also completely different.

Such two completely different things lie in front of them, even without the intervention of the big parents that they will have to face in the future.They may also have many differences.

Now thinking about how they met, how they got along, and the words I said when I confessed, I feel very strange.

But these can always be solved, can't they?

The holiday of just a few days passed by, and Huo Yufei had to fly back to the UK even though he was very reluctant to part.Sitting on the plane, he calculated the time in his mind. It was September soon. If everything went well, he might be able to complete all the courses before Christmas and apply for graduation.In this way, even if Africa still has to travel frequently due to special reasons for the project, he can spend half of the time in China.It doesn't have to be like now, it takes more than a month to squeeze out time to come back for two days.

Huo Yufei, who never liked sharing the same bed with others, suffered from insomnia on the first day he arrived in the UK, and has not fully adapted until now.

Maybe people are naturally social animals. After getting used to the body temperature of another person when sleeping at night, they realize how cold a person's night is, right?

Huo Yufei smiled after thinking about it.

Not long after school started in September, Gu Cheng finished filming his last scene.As soon as school started, his time became tense, and it was impossible to watch every game, but he still tried his best to learn something within the time limit.Although according to Li He's words, this small film was made for fun and will not be shown on the big screen, and he himself may not have the opportunity to make a second film in the future.

Gu Cheng is still very attentive.

Maybe it's also because of the state of keeping himself busy, which makes him feel good.

The last scene will soon be left, and usually an unimportant scene will be left for the finale. At this time, the actors are more relaxed, and the atmosphere in the crew is also good. After the filming, everyone will have dinner together to celebrate.

But their crew is an exception.The reason is still the director, even if it's just a so-called "shooting and playing with friends" small movie, when it comes to Zhao Meng, he is as serious as answering the college entrance examination paper until the last second.Even in the most relaxing scene at the end, everyone's emotions were still very tense, and they didn't dare to look forward to such things as whether there was a chance to knock Director Zhao unconscious at night.

Gu Cheng's own work has been completed, and the whole person is very relaxed, in a state of pure onlookers.Li He, who usually appeared occasionally just to change the script, was also present, and stood across from him with arms folded. Zeng Shuangqiao was originally standing next to Li He, but at this time he made a deliberate walk around and walked up to Gu Cheng, and whispered to him: " Don't rush away for a while, let's have a dinner together."

Gu Cheng nodded: "No problem."

As a result, when he arrived at night, Gu Cheng found that there were not many people at all.

Those celebrities who are really worth a little bit only made a cameo appearance, and the dinner time could not be coordinated, so they basically didn't come.

In addition to him, there are three other "masters", an elder of the beggar gang, and three or five other supporting roles.Including the director, assistant director, producer, and coordinator... the total will be enough for two tables.

The person sitting next to Gu Cheng happened to be a relatively familiar field manager. He had been in contact with many celebrities. When he saw Gu Cheng for the first time, he asked who it was. With such a face, he didn’t know him. Cheng is a pure rookie and quite surprised.

In particular, Gu Cheng's appearance is quite impressive, but he has never had the airs and habits of a star, is studious and can endure hardships. Later, he gradually got to know each other. Ding Lang joked in private, saying that if Gu Cheng had entered the circle a few years earlier, how would he be able to come now? Play a monk.

Everyone knows that Li He is a rich man playing for tickets, and he has no confidence in the film's real participation in awards. Fortunately, there is no deduction on his salary, and when he meets a director like Zhao Meng, he has no choice but to calm down and do it steadily, so in the end All went well, nothing went wrong.

When it comes to salary, Ding Lang also specifically reminded Gu Cheng to confirm whether his salary is in place.Arrears of salary have become commonplace in the industry, especially since Gu Cheng is a newcomer and doesn't even have his own agent, so it's easy to suffer in this situation.

In fact, it is not without.

When looking at the contract, Huo Yufei even volunteered to be Gu Cheng's manager.

Thinking of this, Gu Cheng felt amused, took the time to send a text message to Huo Yufei during the meal, and asked his "manager" how to deal with this situation.

Soon Huo Yufei replied, asking if he had signed a check when the filming started?

At this time, the remuneration is usually paid before the shooting starts, and the rest is settled before the release, and then the dividends are calculated separately.There is no dividend for Gu Cheng here. According to the usual practice, he should be able to get a transfer check with an agreed payment date before the shooting starts. Usually, he can withdraw it half a month to a month after the shooting starts.

Gu Cheng replied to him and said no.

Huo Yufei quickly replied, "Let's leave it to the manager =3=~".

Gu Cheng: "?"

Huo Yufei: "=3=kiss baby."

Gu Cheng couldn't laugh or cry, his "?" asked not what the emoji meant, but how Huo Yufei planned to deal with it.

At this moment Li He started to take the lead in toasting, but he didn't continue to ask.

Many people work together to do one thing and make it happen. The cohesion brought by it is not a little bit. Seeing the filming is over and parting is imminent, no matter what happens during the filming process, I feel a little bit reluctant at this time.

In the same way, no matter how many times I was scolded by Director Zhao during the filming process, I was a little touched at this time.

Not to mention that Gu Cheng himself is very grateful to Zhao Meng.

Although speaking of it, he was probably the one who was scolded worse by the whole crew.

After everyone finished their respect, Gu Cheng made a special effort to toast Zhao Meng, Li He and Zeng Shuangqiao.

Probably because he was drinking too much, Zeng Shuangqiao was also moved by his true feelings, and suddenly pulled Gu Cheng closer to him, and said to him in a low voice: "I shouldn't have said this, but Gu Cheng, you are too young , I’m afraid that you will suffer a big loss if you don’t know anything, do you understand?”

Gu Cheng supported him: "Brother Zeng, are you a little drunk, please sit down and relax."

Zeng Shuangqiao broke away from his hand and kept shaking his head: "I drank a lot of wine, but I'm not drunk, and I can only tell you this after drinking. You haven't seen it in the circle, what kind of dirty There are things, but people choose their own paths. No matter which one you take, don’t regret it. How can you not regret it? That is to be a righteous person, to act righteously and walk properly, and we will not be afraid thing, are you right?"

Gu Cheng could only nod his head: "Yes."

Zeng Shuangqiao still shook his head: "You didn't listen to what I said at all. I just called and said that I would send you the money as soon as possible. Anyway, how was the contract signed at that time? We will definitely not deduct a penny, but the money How to collect it, you have to think about it... think about it..."

Gu Cheng's sleeves were deformed by him, and Li He on the side finally couldn't stand it anymore, reached out and pulled Zeng Shuangqiao's arm off, telling Gu Cheng to go back to drink by himself and leave him alone.

But after drinking, people are very strong, and before Li He let go of his hands, Zeng Shuangqiao stood up, insisting on pulling Gu Cheng to confess his heart, and his voice suddenly became louder. The deal exploded with a lot of material.The others were dumbfounded. If it wasn't for Zhao Meng's words, they might have turned around and sent messages to their "friends" at the newspaper office.

Li He was quite annoyed seeing him like this, so he simply asked Gu Cheng to help, first coaxing Zeng Shuangqiao to the lounge next to him to sober up.

After Zeng Shuangqiao settled down, he was not in a hurry to let him go back, but called Gu Cheng to stop.

Li He touched a cigarette in his hand, and leaned against the corridor to organize his words: "Gu Cheng, don't take what Lao Zeng said to you."

He paused, and apologized tactfully on Zeng Shuangqiao's place: "Old Zeng doesn't know about your relationship with Young Master Huo, and he cares about you, nothing else. By the way, the salary will be transferred in two days. Anyway... Hey, don't think too much about it."

After speaking, he patted Gu Cheng's arm and prepared to go back.

He was gently but firmly stopped.

There was no sound in the thickly carpeted corridor. Gu Cheng looked at Li He and asked, "How much did Huo Yufei invest in?"
