these years

Chapter 8 Carol Coffee Street

From nowhere, the flow of people is getting bigger and bigger, and finally they are pushed onto the street, and before they know which street it is, they are pushed to the next intersection.

Across the crowd, Qiao Weidong saw the seafood, jewelry, gold store and electronics. There are more people, cars, things, and colors here, and everything is more than that in Forty-Nine City. When everything starts to flow, the disorder is spectacular.

Du Yibing tried to save the atmosphere, he pretended to be novelty: "Look! There are so many foreigners!"

Wang Lijun said: "Just pretend, Qiao Weidong is not enough for you?"

Du Yibing shut up knowingly, he knew that this hurdle would be difficult for a while.

When they got to the subway station, Du Yibing spent the last few bucks on his body, talking with a Macanese homeless man. After a lot of bargaining, he only got a few Hong Kong dollars, and finally let the three of them get on the subway.In the subway carriages, many people are carrying dusty luggage, and they all come from the mainland when they hear their accents.A well-dressed Hong Kong man kept leaning towards Wang Lijun to avoid being soiled by his luggage, because Wang Lijun was dressed like a Hong Kong farmer, and the soil was a bit dirty, but he was a Hong Kong person after all.

When the subway stopped at the station, the crowd suddenly collapsed. Finally, the Hong Kong man could not escape the fate of being defiled by the mainlanders. He patted his gray trouser legs and reprimanded in a low voice: "Lao Lao."

The subway started suddenly again, and the Hong Kong man couldn't stand upright, and stepped on Qiao Weidong's foot. He hurriedly said to the simple farmer brother, "I'm sorry."

Qiao Weidong said, "It's okay, it's okay."

Hearing his standard Mandarin, the Hong Kong man sighed helplessly: "It's another Lao Lao[1], alas."

Fishing back and forth, climbing up and down, according to Du Yibing's memory, they finally came to the place where the brothers were stationed.

What kind of place is this?They set off from the street without looking back, and saw on the way: a crew was racing, a crew was kissing, a crew was hunting ghosts, and a crew was slashing people.

As Wang Lijun walked, he recalled a booklet that was usually handed out at studio screenings because that was the only place children in Beijing were exposed to Hong Kong culture.The pamphlet says that Hong Kong is terrible, that it is the most lewd city in the world, and so on. It is intended to scare young people, so that everyone can learn to produce with peace of mind, and stop thinking about smuggling.But things backfired, and the result was so bad that everyone who watched it thought of going to Hong Kong for a while.

Of course, this is not the case in Hong Kong, but this street is completely in line with the imagination: hundreds of scenes have been filmed in every square meter here, and each plot is extremely exciting. It challenges the imagination every day, and you can choose from an ice room If you catch a few people, you can make up a crew: lighting, make-up, art, screenwriting, and most of them are Kelifei[2].Therefore, people at that time called this place Kelifei Street.

At that time, the brother sat at the table, lit a cigarette, and said, "Do you know what 'kale coffee' means?"

Du Yibing had just arrived, and in order to impress his senior, he hurriedly said, "I know! Kelifei is an extra in Cantonese."

The brother stretched out his hand to break off the soot, and praised: "Yo, it's ok, the homework is done well."

After finishing speaking, the senior brother continued to smoke, closed his eyes at the same time, shook his head slightly, hummed a song, and tapped the beat with his fingertips on the table.He was enjoying himself, and he didn't pay attention to the three new juniors who came to join him.

Du Yibing stared at his senior brother, who was like a crane. He wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and a pure white Chinese-style shirt.It is said that his talent is favored by many famous southern directors. His play "Beautiful Women in Pairs" is even directed by director Gao Baifei. It has recently been put on the big screen, co-starred by popular movie stars Christian and Mimi - everything shows that Yan Brother Han's nobility is well-founded. As the most promising playwright on Garrison Street in recent years, his various colors are tolerated by his neighbors.After all, what genius doesn't have a bad temper?

The three of them were in a moment of embarrassment. Someone pushed the door, and they didn't see the person, so they heard his voice first.

The man said: "Today is awesome, after Chang Miaotong went on strike last time, today he scolded a group of actors as stinky shit, his temper is really—"

The door was pushed open, and a skinny fairy met the three of them face to face.

Shouguxian and Wang Lijun looked at each other, and quickly connected to each other's channels.

Skinny Bone Fairy said: "Hey—what a coincidence, you see, you finally came to Hong Kong, right? This is what we call the same goal by different routes."

Wang Lijun barely lifted his mood, and said enthusiastically: "You are right, these years, we all come to the same goal by different routes."

Skinny Bone Fairy came over to hug his shoulders, and asked in a low voice, "It's ok, how did you get here?"

Wang Lijun hesitated for a moment: "...he swam over here."

Skinny Fairy was surprised: "No way, I know a few people who came over from the film crew. At that time, eight of them set off, and the border guards killed four, and only half of them came. There are really not many people who came by water. , are you so lucky?"

Wang Lijun smiled wryly: "It rained heavily that night, and no one caught up in Shenzhen. When we arrived in Hong Kong, the border guards didn't catch up...Actually, four of us set off and three of us arrived."

Skinny Fairy understood, his smile gradually faded, and he only patted him on the shoulder as encouragement.Then Skinny Fairy introduced himself to several people. His name was Qiu Yuanzheng, and he and Yan Han were cousins. The two of them came here through their relatives in Hong Kong to settle here.Qiu Yuanzheng was acquainted with each other, and quickly communicated with the three of them. After all, they were brothers and sisters of the same school. He readily agreed to let the three of them stay, just to help him make a living to cover the cost of board and lodging. agree.

Qiu Yuanzheng also saw that the relationship between them was tense, especially between Du Yibing and Wang Lijun, so he ran his mouth full of trains to arrange everything, trying to ease the atmosphere.

Yan Han seemed to be conceiving a script, and he couldn't hear any noise. Every time Qiu Yuanzheng said something, he rolled his eyes and clicked his tongue.He got up and wanted to leave. Before he left, he sarcastically said: "Eating wire and pissing in a big basket, weaving."

Qiu Yuanzheng smiled: "Eat bamboo to draw fences—you really know how to weave."

Yan Han knew that this was a compliment to him, so he gave Qiu Yuanzheng a half-smile look, and finally walked back to the house on his own.

Watching Yan Han go back to the house, Qiu Yuanzheng said: "There is still one person in the living room, so I can sleep on this table." He knocked on the table, and pointed his thumb out of the window: "If there is a camp bed outside, I have to be wronged." , you discuss it and see how to live, I will lend you a quilt."

Wang Lijun and Du Yibing looked at each other and said at the same time, "I'm sleeping with Qiao Weidong."

The triangular relationship is not easy to balance. Now that they have a rift in their hearts, they naturally want to snatch the opportunity to get close to Qiao Weidong, so as to prove that they have the support of their companions and are not unjust and helpless people.

Qiao Weidong knew that the smuggling was not done properly, and he felt guilty for helping to conceal it, so he said: "Brother was found by the soldier, and the main credit is on you. You can sleep in, and I will sleep outside with Brother Lijun." .”

The temperature was not high that night, and there were only two lone stars in the sky. Wrapped up in blankets, Wang Lijun and Qiao Weidong huddled together on a camp bed under the eaves.The thin quilt couldn't withstand the low temperature, and Wang Lijun was blown by the cold wind. Thinking of Luo Huisheng, I don't know if he has gone ashore. If he hasn't gone ashore, I wonder if the sea in Hong Kong is cold?

People who suffer from cold always tend to be warm.When Wang Lijun came to his senses, he had already leaned back into Qiao Weidong's arms. Qiao Weidong's right arm passed under his armpit and met his hand on his chest.Qiao Weidong also held his wrist with one hand, as if to inject strength into him.The two just made do with it, and they didn't want to ask their senior brother for an extra quilt. Their love was frozen, and they tacitly received the punishment from God, which should be regarded as a redemption.When Qiu Yuanzheng asked about it the next day, they just said, Hey, it’s okay, Hong Kong is really not cold at all.

When Qiu Yuanzheng finally got a fake certificate, it was already a week later, and Du Yibing could finally start helping out, and he no longer had to stay under the same roof and be looked down upon by Wang Lijun every day. Alone——Thinking about it, Du Yibing suddenly had an inspiration: a triangle relationship is by no means the most stable structure, and it will definitely develop in the direction where two people get along and one stays away, unless there are always plot conflicts in the main storyline, and one of them is emotionally like It swings like a pendulum; for example, in his work "Liao Zhai: The Evil of Seas and Love", one character can be added to form a triangle relationship with No. [-] and No. [-]. The relationship between three people is more interesting than that of two people. , as the saying goes, the long-term division must be united, and the long-term union must be divided...

"Du Yibing! Where did I tell you to take a knife!" Someone called him.

Du Yibing quickly stopped thinking, picked up a basket of special equipment for dragon and tiger warriors[3], and ran towards the motorcycle on the side of the road, and then the vehicle started and drove away in a hurry.

At the same time, Wang Lijun and Qiao Weidong were sitting on the curb, staring blankly like a diorama.On Kelifei Street, everyone speaks Cantonese, Teochew, or at worst Hokkien. They don't understand anything, and they can barely understand a word or two.Motorcycles transported the crew’s materials back and forth, and the fake swords in the baskets lit up the street with white light. Occasionally, during intermissions, Jia Lifei, who played the young and Dangerous boy, sat in an ice room, drinking milk tea, blowing water and chatting. Talk about the latest and latest looks from Christian.Some of them who are a little educated even picked up today's newspaper and read a paragraph of entertainment news in a calm manner.According to the news, the entertainment industry in Hong Kong is in a vacuum. The most popular Christian and Mimi are both over [-] years old, but the new generation of idols has not yet been cultivated. The milfs cheered. Although they lived like headless chickens, they all thought that they would gain attention through hard work, and then fly to the branches and fill the void of that idol.

The local children's drama has finally come to an end, and the martial arts drama in Hong Kong's entertainment industry is finally about to begin... I would like to thank the veterans who have survived here, and you will see the unfolding of a new era. The formation of personality still needs a process, I hope Dakar can treat it patiently.Feel big.
