Chapter 239 Chen Xiaoxu (Please subscribe!)

"Aaaaaah... Mom, get out of the way! Auntie's going to hit us again!"

"Xiaowei, don't hit us, go hit your brother-in-law instead."

"Hahaha, I can't beat my brother-in-law."

"Dad, come quick and save us..."

At Hong Kong's largest amusement park, Chen Fusheng and his family tried all the games suitable for children, and at the request of many people, they went on the bumper cars a second time.

Soon, the second round was over as well.

Chen Qian said, still wanting more, "Dad, this was so much fun! Can we do it again?"

"You've gotten addicted to it, haven't you?"

Chen Fusheng noticed that not only his daughter wanted to play, but also his wife and sister-in-law.

Although he didn't plan to continue, since they were already out having fun, he didn't want to spoil the mood.

"Okay, let's play one last round, then we'll go have lunch."

Chen Fusheng didn't participate in this last round because his size made him feel somewhat restricted in the bumper car, and he also had to protect his son, so he didn't really enjoy the ride.

But watching your family's laughter echoing through the amusement park from a third-person perspective is also a kind of happiness.

Ten minutes later, the group left the amusement park in a large procession.

Their departure naturally sparked discussion among some people.

"Whose family are they? They even brought bodyguards when they went out for fun."

"You don't even recognize Mr. Chen?"

"Mr. Chen? The director of 'Die Hard'? It's him. So those people were his family members."

"Yes, Mr. Chen's branch in Hong Kong, which he is in charge of, opened yesterday. He came here specifically to attend the ceremony and also brought his family to Hong Kong for a trip. It was even in the newspapers this morning."

"What? How come I didn't know?"

"..."

Dongying (Hong Kong) Limited.

General Manager's Office.

Li Xiaowan then bought a copy of every newspaper that reported on yesterday's opening ceremony and carefully read them one by one.

Mainland China's foreign exchange earning company establishes a presence in Hong Kong; Dongying Film Studio sets sail to promote cultural exchange.

Chen Fusheng: Integration, Win-Win Cooperation, and Common Prosperity for Chinese-Language Cinema

Li Xiaowan, General Manager of Dongying Film Studio…

……

Ignoring market rules? Dongying Film Studio's aggressive promotion of newcomers turns out to be three beautiful young women.

"Mom, I'm in the newspaper!"

At Zhou Huimin's home, Zhou's mother looked at her excited daughter with mixed feelings.

Her original wish was for her daughter to study hard, get into university, find a good job after graduation, get married, have children, and live a happy, ordinary life.

Now, another path suddenly appeared: to debut as an actress. This not only caught her off guard, but also left her feeling uncertain.

Therefore, she is still hesitant, wondering whether to agree to her daughter signing a contract with Dongying.

Unlike Vivian Chow's family situation, Chingmy Yau's parents, who had more than one daughter, readily agreed.

Of course, Chen Fusheng was unaware of all this. After leaving the amusement park, under the guidance of Fu Mingxian, a local, they did not head to any restaurants or eateries, but instead went to a snack street in Hong Kong.

Unlike the hustle and bustle of the amusement park, the food street is a different kind of vibrant scene. The char siu, made with honey-glazed roasted pork belly, is perfectly balanced between sweet and savory. The typhoon shelter-style fried crab is a local specialty, with a garlicky and chili flavor. The rice noodle rolls here are not only smooth and tender, but their translucent rice flour skins are also filled with various fillings…

On the morning of the third day of the celebration, Chen Fusheng and his family, led by Fu Qi and Shi Hui, strolled around the temple fair morning market, and then boarded a plane back home that afternoon.

……

In China, the movie "Die Hard" is still showing in theaters and has a high attendance rate in every city.

If a cinema owner from later generations were to travel back in time and see this, he would definitely be so envious that he would shed tears.

At this moment, in a movie theater in Anshan, Chen Xiaoxu, who had already seen the movie once, watched it again at the invitation of her friend He Fei.

"This movie is so exciting! The male lead, Chan Ka-kui, single-handedly took down a group of armed terrorists one by one. He's like a superman."

Compared to her friend's excitement after watching the movie, Chen Xiaoxu was much calmer. She said, "That's because the director didn't want him to die. In reality, no matter how powerful a person is, it's impossible to defeat so many people, especially a group of ruthless thugs."

He Fei retorted, "How do you know there aren't people as amazing as Chen Jiaju in real life if you haven't seen him? Maybe he practiced qigong."

“Qigong is fake too,” Chen Xiaoxu said.

"Who told you that qigong is fake?"

"Have you seen it with your own eyes?"

"Although I haven't seen it myself, my cousin has..."

Neither of them could convince the other, and just then they passed by a bookstore.

Chen Xiaoxu suddenly stopped and went inside.

He Fei thought for a moment and then followed her inside.

"You want to buy books?"

"Can't I just look around casually?"

As she spoke, Chen Xiaoxu casually picked up a fresh newspaper.

After a quick glance, he suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

"What's wrong?" He Fei leaned closer.

The newspaper Chen Xiaoxu was holding prominently displayed a message that the production team of "Under the Hawthorn Tree" was holding auditions for male and female leads nationwide.

He Fei also exclaimed in surprise, "Before the Lunar New Year, the crew of 'Dream of the Red Chamber' was casting for actors nationwide. Now, even Director Chen's 'Under the Hawthorn Tree' crew is casting for actors nationwide. It seems that the requirements for actors are particularly high."

"The director of 'Under the Hawthorn Tree' is not Director Chen," Chen Xiaoxu corrected.

"How do you know it's not?"

Chen Xiaoxu pointed to a name in the newspaper and teased her friend, "What are your eyes for?"

He Fei knew Chen Xiaoxu was a bit sharp-tongued, so she wasn't angry. She glanced at the director's name and asked in confusion, "Zhang Yimou, who is that? I've never heard of him before."

"It seems he works for the same company as Director Chen. He was the one who directed the video for the song 'I Believe'."

Chen Xiaoxu explained, then took out her money to buy the newspaper and walked out of the bookstore.

He Fei quickly followed and asked, "Where are you going?"

"Take photos? I sent all my photos to the 'Dream of the Red Chamber' production team last time, and they're all gone now."

He Fei was taken aback, then asked in surprise, "Didn't you say you wanted to play Lin Daiyu? Why do you want to play Jingqiu now?"

"The key is that Lin Daiyu might not be mine. What if the director doesn't choose me? I can't just go to his door and throw a tantrum. Besides, when I read the novel 'Under the Hawthorn Tree,' I felt like I was a lot like Jingqiu. So I might as well give it a try now. What if the director takes a liking to me? At worst, I'll just have to send a photo and lose the cost of a stamp."

After hearing Chen Xiaoxu's sobering words, He Fei paused for two seconds before sighing, "I feel that Xiaoxu, your personality is neither like Lin Daiyu nor Jingqiu."

As Chen Xiaoxu walked, she suddenly turned around, her eyes brimming with tears, and asked in a soft, weak voice, "Then how about this?"
