Xue Zhisen was reading a book in his room on the second floor, thinking to himself.
Last Sunday, Li Chuang went to the movies with Pei Ziqiu as scheduled.
My brothers all went along to join in the fun and also wanted to see what the current movies in Hong Kong are like and what they are about.
The movies in the mainland that were shown by the production teams were all Hongse revolutionary movies, nothing else.
I have watched model operas before, and they are the same over and over again.
What is popular in Hong Kong now is martial arts films, which are obviously much more interesting.
Ever since watching the movie "Dragon Tiger Fight" last Sunday, Xue Zhisen has become deeply obsessed with the art of film.
In Hong Kong, movie theaters are called theaters. In recent days, he has watched all the movies being shown in Xinhua Theater one by one and was fascinated by them.
I also went to the Majestic Theatre in Yau Ma Tei and the Tai Ping Theatre in Tsim Sha Tsui... and watched all the movies I had never seen there.
A movie ticket costs about HK$3.50, and Xue Zhisen now has a handful of colorful ticket stubs.
He secretly made a decision in his heart and decided to tell Brother Will that he wanted to work for Future TV Company, preferably in the film industry.
I am willing to endure hardships and study hard, hoping to find a position that suits me.
Today is Saturday, December 23rd, and Lawrence Lu invites everyone to dinner at Cuizhen Restaurant.
At 6:30 in the evening, nine people who lived in Kowloon Tong all dressed neatly to attend the party.
After more than a week of rest, these people's mental outlook is completely renewed and they are really a different person.
Dongguanzi had already started working four days ago.
He mainly looks after the hotels in Tsim Sha Tsui, working under the manager Chen Zebin, with a monthly salary of HK$1,500.
With his skills, he deserves this salary.
Moreover, over time, as long as they are loyal and capable, the big boss Lawrence Lu will not treat these brothers who follow him badly.
They will also give a lot of benefits from time to time, which is much more than this salary.
Gao Daqi and Fan Yuhe went to work on a hotel that was under construction in Central.
At the temporary office in Central, I followed a supervisor named Feng Zihao, who was responsible for monitoring the progress of the construction site.
Central is quite far from Tsim Sha Tsui and commuting is inconvenient, so the two of them went to live in the dormitory provided by the company there.
Feng Zihao, like Chen Zebin in Tsim Sha Tsui, is a talent in the hotel industry and is Lu Guanjie's right-hand man.
After the hotel branch in Central was built, he became the general manager.
Following him, when the hotel is built, I will be considered one of the first employees, which won’t be too bad.
As for Qi Yao and Tao Yuhong, they will be responsible for taking care of the villa first. They are also very dedicated and diligent.
These arrangements are already very good for first-timers.
A lot of people who come here illegally, both men and women, struggle to survive at the beginning, doing the lowest level jobs and getting the least money. They are not as lucky as them.
The dishes were served and everyone gathered together, sitting around a large table in the private room.
Lawrence Lu asked everyone to start eating casually and try out what this restaurant was like.
For people who have not eaten meat for many years, as long as it is meat and has oil, it is delicious, regardless of the cuisine, all of them are delicious.
Everyone buried their heads in their food, occasionally toasting each other.
Lawrence Lu drank a few cups with them, and when he saw that they were almost done eating, he asked, “Hanchao, you four, what are you thinking about? What kind of jobs do you want to do? Is Li Chuang just focusing on dating Miss Pei?”
Li Chuang smiled embarrassedly: "Brother Lu, my sister has it! I just learned more about Hong Kong and learned some Cantonese. Let me tell you a few words."
Then, he told me everything he knew, such as "Lei Hai Bin Dou Ah" (Where are you) and "Lei Ji Hen He?" (Do you know)...
It made everyone laugh so hard that they almost died.
Lawrence Lu smiled, lit a cigarette, and said, “Li Chuang should become a comedian.”
This sentence is really true.
No one would have thought that Li Chuang would later actually go on to make comedy films and become an important actor in Xu Guanwen's comedy films that became popular in the mid-1970s.
"Brother Lu, do you really think I can be an actor? In fact, I've been thinking about it for a week and I really want to join an artist training class. I'm very interested in acting."
"...But I can't look as good as Shen Hanchao and Xue Zhisen. I'm just an ordinary person! I don't think being an actor is that suitable for me."
In fact, Li Chuang's appearance is not bad.
He is the gentle and clean type.
If he was really as "average looking" as he said, he wouldn't have made Pei Ziqiu, a beautiful woman, so worried.
But compared with those two brothers with outstanding looks, he does not seem so dazzling.
"Li Chuang, I'm serious. You have a good appearance. Besides, not all actors have to be absolutely handsome. All types of actors are required."
"…It's settled. You will report to the artist training class on Tuesday. These two days are Christmas, so everyone will be off. You will go back to work on Tuesday."
In fact, not everyone can join this training class. It requires careful selection and has a series of requirements, such as height, education, appearance, etc.
However, Lawrence Lu believed that the people he recommended must meet all these conditions, so he added them directly, and Brother Lanni would definitely agree to such talents joining.
Of course, there is only one thing that is not a requirement, and that is the need to speak fluent Cantonese, which I must study as soon as possible.
Li Chuang suddenly smiled and nodded gratefully to Lu Guanjie.
