Porcelain to Porcelain

After work was over and makeup removed, Lu Qiu yawned and went to the parking lot with Wang Gui. Halfway there, he took out his phone and looked at it. It was almost three o'clock in the morning.In the studio, in order not to disturb others, Lu Qiu's mobile phone was set to vibrate mode.

There are five missed calls and two text messages on the phone.

Four of the missed calls were from Zhou Hongxun, and the other was from Lu Chunhua, and the text messages were also sent by these two people.

Lu Qiu flipped through the pages, and found that the phone calls and text messages came between [-]:[-] and [-]:[-] in the evening.At this time, Lu Qiu was filming in the studio, so naturally he wouldn't answer.

For the two text messages, Lu Qiu first read the ones from his sister Lu Chunhua.

Lu Chunhua knew her brother was at work when she couldn't get through on her mobile phone. Therefore, the text message she sent was very long, and it took Lu Qiu a minute to read it.

The main idea of ​​the text message is that with the help of Ding Xiaoqiang, Lu Chunhua found an apartment building that meets Lu Qiu's terms.The apartment building is two streets away from the rented house. It has [-] floors. There are properties and there are key schools nearby. The house can be handed over years ago, but the price per square meter is too expensive, [-].

The house that Lu Chunhua had fancy before did not have an elevator. It was on the highest floor, and the attic above was given away for free, and it only cost more than 3000 per flat.

The location of the free attic house is too remote, there is no formal property, the building is seven floors high, and there is no elevator to go up and down.After Lu Qiu asked Ding Xiaoqiang to understand the situation, he immediately vetoed it.Feeling that Lu Chunhua was unreliable to look at the house, Lu Qiu entrusted Ding Xiaoqiang to find a house with his sister.

The area of ​​the largest house I see now is around 130, and the full purchase price is close to 70.

Lu Qiu didn't want to buy a house with all the money. He currently has less than 30 yuan in his account. This is the manuscript fee he earned from the publication of the three novels he contributed. The down payment is enough, and other loans are repaid every month.In the future, depending on the manuscript fee, it can be repaid.

Lu Qiu was very satisfied with the house Lu Chunhua was looking for now, so he replied a text message and asked his sister to book the largest house tomorrow.A house in that location will not be available for [-] square meters in ten years. Whether it is for comfort or preservation of value, the bigger the house, the better.

After reading his sister's text message, Lu Qiu went to answer Zhou Hongxun's text message.

Zhou Hongxun's text message was very short, only writing the five words 'Are you still unemployed' with a question mark.Lu Qiu was a little strange. Zhou Hongxun made four phone calls in a row. He thought it was something urgent, but ended up with such nonsense.

But nonsense is nonsense, the text message vaguely hinted that Lu Qiu would call him back after work.Lu Qiu felt that three o'clock was too late, Zhou Hongxun must have rested, and calling would disturb him, so he replied a text message directly.

Just finished work, on the way back to the hotel.

After Lu Qiu sent the text message, he had already walked to Wang Gui's car.After getting in the car, Lu Qiu threw the phone into his bag.When Lu Qiu was filming, his mobile phone was inconvenient to carry around, so he developed the habit of carrying a bag with him.

Wang Gui started the car and drove away from the parking lot.

"Brother Qiu, Mr. Li came to see me this afternoon." Wang Gui is now Lu Qiu's economic and assistant.

"Li Weiming? What did he ask you for?" Lu Qiu rubbed his forehead, and went to the film and television city to put on makeup at four in the morning. It was not easy to put on makeup once, and he couldn't take off the makeup during the lunch break. His scalp hurt even after wearing makeup for seventeen or eight hours.

"He wants to invite you to take on the role of the second male lead in the new TV series."

"He wants to make a new drama?"

"Well, the content is about the ups and downs of a troupe during the Republic of China. You are the mainstay of the troupe. I read the script, and the plot is not bad. It is a bit similar to Farewell My Concubine. Mr. Li's salary is [-] per episode, and the whole drama is about Thirty episodes can be filmed." Wang Gui was a little moved, Li Weiming's salary was the price of ordinary second-tier actors.

At present, Lu Qiu's reputation is not very big, even if he is the star of "Farewell My Concubine", his salary is not as high as that of a second-tier star.

The reason why "Farewell My Concubine" can be as high as Sun Jiaxing's salary, the same 100 million, is due to two reasons, one is Zhou Hongxun's generosity, and the other is that Lu Qiu turned the film salary into investment, which is the same as "Farewell My Concubine". bear a certain risk. "Farewell My Concubine" was going to lose money, and Lu Qiu's salary would also go down the drain.

Lu Qiu smiled: "Li Weiming is quite good at following suit."

After Lu Qiucheng dressed up in butterfly clothes was photographed in the entertainment newspaper, Li Weiming immediately came to the film and television city when he saw it.Li Weiming's vision is not very good, but he has a keen sense of smell. After reading the report, he thought that "Farewell My Concubine" would become popular after it was released, so he wanted to make a similar series to follow suit and make a profit.

You can make money by following suit, but you won't become bigger and stronger.

"What do you mean?" The longer Wang Gui and Lu Qiu have known each other, the more Wang Gui can't treat him like a young man.

"Push it off, don't take this type of role in the future." Lu Qiusheng was afraid that Wang Gui would have an idea, and explained: "I played Qiuming and Cheng Dieyi, and the roles were both feminine. If I continue to take on the role, I will ruin my future."

It's refreshing once or twice, and you will have to play this role every time in the future. Given the current social environment, it would be bad if you were given a homosexuality, and that would be a self-destructive life.

"Then what type of role are you going to play in the future?"

"Let's talk about it after the filming of "Farewell My Concubine"." Lu Qiu has a plan, which is based on the success of "Farewell My Concubine".

"Oh, fine, then I won't help you take over the show right now." Wang Gui's manager was inexperienced, and Lu Qiu seemed strong in this regard, so Wang Gui followed Lu Qiu's opinion unconsciously.

The phone in the bag vibrated, but neither of the two people in the car noticed it.When they arrived at the hotel, after taking a quick shower, the two climbed into bed and fell asleep.

In Shanghai high-end apartment, Zhou Hongxun was still staring at his mobile phone, waiting for Lu Qiu's reply.

On the way home from Yujiayuan, Zhou Hongxun called Lu Qiu.I called two times on the way and no one picked up. When I got back to my residence, I called two more times, but no one answered.Zhou Hongxun guessed that Lu Qiu was filming and had no time to check his cell phone, so he sent a text message, hoping that Lu Qiu would see the text message and contact him.

As a result, I waited and waited until twelve o'clock, but none of the phone calls or text messages came from the person I was looking forward to.Feeling hopeless, Zhou Hongxun had no choice but to go to bed.

Lying on the bed, Zhou Hongxun still didn't give up, and moved the mobile phone from the bedside table to the pillow.Lu Qiu replied the text message, and the phone rang, and Zhou Hongxun, who was in a daze, immediately opened his eyes.

Looking at Lu Qiu's text message, Zhou Hongxun was both sweet and distressed.

Sweetness is because she thinks that Lu Qiu really loves her, and she has to reply to text messages at three o'clock in the morning, and her heartache is because she thinks that Lu Qiu has worked so hard, and she can only finish work and go back to sleep at three o'clock in the morning.

Zhou Hongxun smiled and frowned at the phone, and the idea of ​​driving to the film and television city arose in his mind.After the idea was born, it was forcibly suppressed by Zhou Hongxun.It will be dawn when we drive to the film and television city now. The company will have a very important meeting at [-] o'clock tomorrow morning. As the helm of the company, how can we be absent and late.

Suppressing the impulse, Zhou Hongxun sent a text message to Lu Qiu.

Don't work too hard and pay attention to your body.

After sending, Zhou Hongxun waited anxiously for Lu Qiu to reply with a few words, but the phone remained silent until dawn.

Lu Qiu slept until nine o'clock and woke up to find that Wang Gui's bed was empty and no one was in the room.

After resting for five hours, Lu Qiu came back in spirit.There is no Cheng Dieyi scene this morning, so Lu Qiu can go to the studio after lunch at the hotel.

After Lu Qiu finished his push-ups and went to the bathroom to freshen up, Wang Gui came back with breakfast and newspapers.

"Here, your favorite fish-flavored shredded pork buns and salted tofu flower."

"Thank you, Brother Wang, have you eaten yet?"

Lu Qiu took out his mobile phone and ate breakfast while turning over his phone. Seeing the sending time of Zhou Hongxun's text message, he was stunned.If you don't sleep at three o'clock in the morning, the big boss has a rich nightlife.

"I bought it for you after eating."

Wang Gui sat on the sofa and read the newspaper. After reading for a while, he patted his thigh: "Mother Xipi! We have big news in the entertainment industry!"

Niangxipi is Xie Pu's colloquial term, and Wang Gui's close ink is filthy, which has also become an idiomatic term.

"What big news?"

"Bai Qian from Xingqiang Film and Television Company was stabbed to death with a knife."

"Bai Qian? The Bai Qian who plays Mrs. Wei in "Han Wu Feng Yun"?" Lu Qiu opened his eyes wide. "It's not fake news, is it?"

Bai Qian is the actress that Xing Qiang has favored this year. She looks sweet. When she got the role of Mrs. Wei in "Han Wu Feng Yun", the notices were flying all over the sky. All reports about "Han Wu Feng Yun" will mention Bai Qian.

"Han Wu Feng Yun" was completed last month, and it is entering the intense post-production, and it is expected to meet the audience in June.

"No, all three newspapers have published it." Except for "Reference News", several newspapers brought by Wang Gui published the news of Bai Qian's murder on the front page.

"Let me take a look." Lu Qiu put down the mobile phone bag and took a newspaper.

It's such a pity that a delicate beauty has disappeared.

The content of the newspaper report is not detailed, only confirming that Bai Qian was killed at around eleven o'clock last night.

When the police saw Bai Qian, Bai Qian was covered in blood and had no signs of life.Bai Qian was stabbed seven times in the body, and three times were stabbed at the vital point.Next to Bai Qian's body, lay the young man who had severed the arteries in his neck.

The man was still able to speak when he saw the police, but died after being sent to the hospital.

The last thing the young man said to the police was that we were together forever.

Before the press release, the reporter found out from reliable sources that the young man was Bai Qian's admirer, and he committed the atrocity of killing both because he was rejected because of love.

"Mother Xipi, this guy is crazy!" Wang Gui scolded. "Bai Qian is really unlucky."

"Just because of love and hate?" Lu Qiu questioned the authenticity of the news. In his previous life, there was also a case of a female star being killed, which included other factors besides love and hatred.

If it was in the previous life, the incident at eleven o'clock last night would have maxed out the Internet and WeChat and Weibo, and the content had been updated a lot.In this space, computers have only entered the home, smartphones have disappeared, and print media is still the main source of news.

"I'll ask someone to ask." Wang Gui took out his mobile phone and called a well-informed insider.

After making several phone calls and even asking an agent who was familiar with Bai Qian, he confirmed that the content of the newspaper report was basically true.Bai Qian has always refused to be the young man's girlfriend, so she made an appointment with the young man yesterday to confront her face to face.The young man couldn't accept it, so he picked up the fruit knife on the table and stabbed Bai Qian.

To say that it is missing is to miss the identity of the second generation of young officials.When Bai Qian first entered the entertainment industry, the second generation official helped introduce many contacts.After filming "Han Wu Feng Yun", Bai Qian felt that her position in the film and television industry was stable, so she wanted to get rid of the entanglement of the second generation of officials.

The second-generation official's family probably has some energy, and the newspapers did not report the young man's name.

"People who know both of them say that the man has a deep affection for Bai Qian. Bai Qian is too careless, and she should find someone to accompany her when she picks it up." Wang Gui shook his head: "This man doesn't know what he thinks. Money has power, so it must be hanged from a tree. Bai Qian is also unlucky to encounter this kind of rubbish."

"Everything in the world is full of wonders." Lu Qiu shrugged. He had heard too many cases of idiotic men complaining about women's love and killing in previous lives.

In the afternoon at the film and television city, everyone in the production team was talking about this love murder case. Some regretted that Bai Qian's beauty had faded in the prime of life, and some regretted that the second generation of officials couldn't think about it. There were all kinds of opinions.

The crew was probably distracted by the love murder case, and the filming in the afternoon was not going well, just like yesterday, and the filming didn't stop until early in the morning.

Lu Qiu didn't need to put on makeup for the afternoon scene, and it was quickly cleaned up.After leaving the dressing room, Wang Gui was not seen outside the door, but Zhou Hongxun who was smiling.
