Lao Qi and Xiao Wen are both newcomers, and Chu Yu's income for them is already quite high. Currently, many TV station artists in Hong Kong only receive a monthly salary for filming, which is only a few thousand yuan a month. If they want to earn more money, they can only hone their acting skills.
An actor must go through a long period as a newcomer before becoming famous becomes a strong guarantee for box office success, which is how they can earn a high salary of millions.
Lao Qi and Xiao Wen were amateurs, and Chu Yu single-handedly promoted them to the industry, investing in the best film resources and hiring the best teachers. The company had to spend a lot of money to train them.
Compared to the few hundred or thousand yuan that mainland actors earn for a single film, Chu Yu was incredibly generous to Lao Qi and Xiao Wen.
The two of them were so happy they almost jumped for joy.
Especially the seventh brother, he is old, and his peers can get married and have children. His family situation is not good, so he has never dared to find a girlfriend. After making money by making movies, he can afford a house and live a stable life.
Right now, Lao Qi hasn't thought about becoming an international martial arts star. All he wants is to make money, go back to Shenzhen, buy an apartment, and have a warm home with his wife and kids.
"Xiao Zhong, Lao Qi and Xiao Wen need to change their stage names. Let the staff in Hong Kong find a master to calculate and change them to auspicious names that are easy to pronounce and bring good fortune."
Chu Yu is a staunch materialist and doesn't believe in these things, but the entertainment industry in Hong Kong does. It's said that all the popular movie stars in Hong Kong have consulted fortune tellers, and the fortunes they told were incredibly mysterious.
Chu Yu could afford the money, so he considered it a psychological comfort and proceeded according to the rules of the port city.
Upon receiving the order, Xiao Zhong immediately called the company in Hong Kong. The company in Hong Kong was in frequent contact with the master, and they made an appointment. The master agreed to give Lao Qi and Xiao Wen stage names based on their facial features and birth dates after they arrived in Hong Kong.
At the end of December, a heavy snow fell in Beijing. Since the senior year classes were not busy, Chu Yu had not been to school for two months. After the snow, Chu Jiali and Yorkham's supply could not keep up, and Shen Jun and Shu Hui both wanted to close the store and rest for a few days.
They hardly have any chance to rest all year round, so Chu Yu also advised them to take a few days off, stay at home for the winter, warm themselves by the heater, have some hot wine, and enjoy a few days of comfort.
Chu Yu was worried that Shen Jun would be home alone and without anyone to look after her when the snow got heavy, so she let her sleep at Shu Hui's place. Shen Jun bought a few jugs of plum wine, warmed them on the stove, and poured a cup for both Shu Hui and Chu Yu, who were warming themselves by the fire.
Shu Hui smiled and said, "Chu Yu is still too young to drink."
"She's not young anymore, let her have a few drinks, it's not like she drinks every day."
In her previous life, Chu Yu had just turned 18 when Shen Jun made her drink alcohol. That time, Chu Yu got drunk and blacked out the next day. Shen Jun took the opportunity to teach her not to drink too much with strangers, because if she blacked out, she would be easily taken advantage of.
Chu Yu sat with Shen Jun on her left and Shu Hui on her right. The steaming stove made her cheeks flushed, and the snow outside the window was like salt sprinkled on the ground, making the ground white. She felt an unprecedented sense of peace.
She had a few drinks and enjoyed a particularly relaxing night, but Mao Xia, far away in the port city, was not so relaxed.
He demanded that Yanlong's father secure a 100 million yuan order, or he wouldn't be allowed to return home.
Xiang Yanlong worked very hard, going out drinking with people every day. When he got drunk, he would come home and vomit. After vomiting, he would hug Mao Xia, cry and kiss her, and say how sad he was because he couldn't get his father's approval.
When emotions run high, Xiang Yanlong would look at Mao Xia with deep affection, saying that she was different from others, that she was the woman he loved most, that she was the home of his soul, and that his days only had value with her by his side.
Xiang Yanlong also said that Mao Xia was the only woman in the world who knew how to appreciate him.
The once playboy young master would cry in her arms after getting drunk, a contrast that Mao Xia found quite endearing.
It is said that people speak the truth when they are drunk, and Mao Xia believed every word Xiang Yanlong said.
He truly loved her. If he didn't, he wouldn't have come to her every time he was drunk, let alone say such heartfelt words. Xiang Yanlong said that Mao Xia understood him, and Mao Xia felt that Xiang Yanlong was her salvation.
He was almost perfect in appearance and wealth, and could have easily been aloof and acted like a young master, but he never looked down on her, a girl from mainland China.
