Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 2288 It's time to thaw

"I thought you were going to have a New Year's Eve dinner there this year."

On New Year's Eve, Zhong Chuhong has already gone home to spend New Year's Eve with her family.

Because Lin Daoqiu encountered an assassination incident, Brigitte Lin naturally dared not and was not willing to go back to Baodao for the New Year at this time.

So she decided to stay in Xiangjiang and spend this year with Lin Daoqiu.

"How come, do I look like this kind of person?"

Lin Daoqiu laughed, if Brigitte Lin was not there, Lin Daoqiu might consider going to Zhong Chuhong's place for the New Year's Eve dinner.

But since Brigitte Lin stayed in Xiangjiang, and Zhong Chuhong was accompanied by her family, it was impossible for her to leave Brigitte Lin and go to have a New Year's Eve dinner with Zhong Chuhong's family alone.

But despite this, he actually just postponed his visit to the third day of the Lunar New Year.

The servants had already cooked the meals, so Lin Daoqiu gave them an early holiday and went home for the New Year, and each sealed a big red envelope of 1 yuan.

"Thank you Mr. Lin, I wish Mr. Lin, Ms. Lin, a happy new year, all the best, Gong Xi Fa Cai."

Although there are many benefits to being Lin Daoqiu's servants, Lin Daoqiu and Brigitte Lin are very polite in dealing with people and things. There are not as many rules as those in the rich families, as long as they finish their duties.

After thanking Lin Daoqiu, several servants left Lin Qingxia's villa, leaving only Lin Daoqiu and Lin Qingxia and some bodyguards.

"What are your goals for this year?"

Sitting in the dining room, a rich variety of dishes have been placed on the table, including chicken, chicken and fish. Lin Daoqiu even boiled a pot of rice wine.

At this moment Brigitte Lin suddenly asked about Lin Daoqiu's goals for this year.

"I hope everyone is in good health, safe and sound, and then they will succeed in their careers."

Lin Daoqiu thought for a while, and gave three wishes of health, safety, and career.

"I didn't see that after what happened last time, you started to pay attention to these things. When I asked you in the past, you would say that your wishes come true. Today, looking at you like this, you have changed a lot."

Brigitte Lin did not expect such a change in Lin Daoqiu's mentality after experiencing the assassination incident, which she had never thought of before.

"People will change. Your thinking ten years ago must be very different from what it is now, and so am I."

Lin Daoqiu doesn't think it's a big deal, people will change with time, it just depends on what they become.

Brigitte Lin felt that what Lin Daoqiu said was right, so let me use her as an example. In the past, she wanted to achieve more achievements in the film industry and act in more good movies.

But now she only wants to marry Lin Daoqiu as soon as possible, and then have children. Even if she is asked to retire immediately, Brigitte Lin will not refuse.

But it's a pity that Lin Qingxia knew that Lin Daoqiu would not agree, because Zhong Chuhong was still standing there, and she couldn't handle him at all.

Not to mention that besides Zhong Chuhong, Brigitte Lin was sure that Lin Daoqiu had other women, but she hadn't found out so far.

"I hope we can go smoothly together this year. I think nothing is more important than safety and health. I wish you a happy new year!"

"Happy New Year to you too."

The two looked at each other and smiled, then had a drink.

In this simple and warm atmosphere, a simple New Year's Eve dinner was finished like this.

In the past few years, Lin Daoqiu would go to Dongshi to participate in the Spring Festival Gala from New Year's Eve, even if he was not on stage, he would show his face on the TV station.

But this year, due to special circumstances, Lin Daoqiu did not go to Dongshi, but stayed in Lin Qingxia's villa to watch the party.

Since Lin Daoqiu helped Dongshi organize the Spring Festival Gala, Yu Teng and Zeng Lizhen also began to pay attention to the show.

As long as it is a star of Dongshi, they will perform some programs at this party, or act as the host.

As one of Dongshi's actors, Zhou Xingchi and Wu Mengda are no exception. This year, the two of them staged a show similar to cross talk.

"Speaking of which, it has been a year since Zhou Xingchi smashed "The Saint of Gamblers". Are you planning to keep him in Dongshi forever?"

Brigitte Lin cut a fruit plate and brought it to Lin Daoqiu.

She remembered that Lin Daoqiu had written a script for "The Saint of Gamblers" for Liu Zhenwei and Zhou Xingchi before, but later because they failed to produce an effect that satisfied Lin Daoqiu, Lin Daoqiu directly sealed the play.

Almost a year has passed now, Brigitte Lin felt that no matter what, Zhou Xingchi should be released to act in a movie.

In fact, apart from "The Saint of Gamblers", Zhou Xingchi has performed well in other movies, such as Lin Daoqiu's previous film "A Happy Event".

"If he thinks he can, he will take the initiative to come to me, but since he didn't come to talk to me, it means that he is not ready yet."

Although Lin Daoqiu said so, he also felt that it was time for Zhou Xingchi to practice more in the film industry.

Acting in TV series all the time is actually not good for him. After all, TV series and movies are completely two forms of performance.

Moreover, Zhou Xingchi has his own unique understanding of movies and shooting methods, which ordinary people can't learn at all.

"At that time, you were so optimistic about him, just because he didn't make a movie well, so you kept him in storage. It doesn't seem very good."

Brigitte Lin suddenly helped Zhou Xingchi say good things in front of Lin Daoqiu, which made Lin Daoqiu feel very strange.

"Could it be that this guy asked you to intercede for help?"

Lin Daoqiu found it very strange that Lin Qingxia didn't seem to be a person who likes to take the initiative to intercede for others.

But if this is the case, and Lin Qingxia also agreed to the other party, then Lin Daoqiu would naturally not refuse.

"That's not true. I just hope that you can dig out more talents for Xiangjiang's film circle. After all, he is a little different from other actors. For example, his recent film "He Comes From Jianghu" was quite funny."

Brigitte Lin also occasionally watched the TV series "He Comes from the Rivers and Lakes" recently, and felt that Zhou Xingchi played very well in it.

Although he failed the filming of "The Saint of Gamblers" before, Brigitte Lin felt that young actors should be given more opportunities, and it is not good to completely abandon it after making a mistake once.

"It's rare for you to speak good words for him. If that's the case, then give him a chance."

Lin Daoqiu smiled slightly, it seemed that he had already thought about what kind of movie he would arrange for Stephen Chow.

Brigitte Lin just said it casually, and she was naturally very happy when she heard that Lin Daoqiu immediately agreed.

After waking up the next day, Lin Daoqiu and Brigitte Lin stayed at home because it was the first day of the new year.

After waking up, Lin Daoqiu remembered what he had promised Brigitte Lin yesterday, so he called Liu Zhenwei directly.
