Chapter 58 What? You Call Me Brother Wang?

Familiar coffee shop, familiar faint fragrance, and familiar piano music.

Lu Yuan stopped for a moment.

Today's piano piece is not "The Maiden of the River Neil" but "To Alice".

Of course, Lu Yuan also knew the piano player, it was Zhou Yao.

Skillful techniques, elegant temperament, plus a trace of white long skirt, accompanied by soft coffee lights, gave off a strange atmosphere...

"Brother Lu, you're here."

"Um."

"There is a space upstairs, I will take you there."

"No need, I'll just go up by myself, I know the way."

"Have you dated someone?"

"Yes."

"Well, okay, this way please..."

The little girl at the front desk raised her head and saw Lu Yuan, her eyes filled with surprise, and then she greeted him warmly.

In her opinion, Lu Yuan is a very talented and very romantic big boy. At the same time, he does not have the arrogance of a literati who dismisses everything, and is very approachable.

She had a very good impression of Lu Yuan.

"okay."

Lu Yuan nodded and walked towards the stairs on the second floor.

"Brother Lu, are you here?"

At this moment, "Fur Elise" finished playing, Zhou Yao stood up just in time to see Lu Yuan, so she ran over happily, and when she came in front of Lu Yuan, her cheeks were a little bit shy.

"Uh, hello."

"I played your "Fur Elise" just now, did you listen to it?"

"Well, I listened."

"How do you think I play?"

Zhou Yao stood in front of Lu Yuan, looking like a student with a look of anticipation and a trace of apprehension.

"Not bad." Lu Yuan nodded after seeing Zhou Yao's gaze, "It sounds good!"

Maybe because he felt that his answer was a little perfunctory, and he was afraid that the little girl would have unnecessary misunderstandings, so Lu Yuan added that sentence.

"Oh...is it just nice to hear?" Zhou Yao asked, her eyes filled with anticipation.

"Well, it's really not bad, it's quite tasty." Lu Yuan nodded, but couldn't think of any words to describe it after searching all over his mind.

"Oh, is it interesting? Although I know that you are encouraging me, brother Lu, I am still very happy...well, I will work harder!" Zhou Yao nodded, after a moment of inexplicable disappointment, and then changed smiled.

"Well, come on!" Lu Yuan didn't quite understand why Zhou Yao's face flashed with disappointment, but he really couldn't find words to praise Zhou Yao, and he felt that what he could say was almost the limit.

He doesn't know much about the deeper realm of the piano. Although he is familiar with To Alice, he can't understand the deeper attainments.

Many things need to be felt and understood.

At least Lu Yuan didn't have this kind of understanding yet.

"Yeah!" Zhou Yao nodded, then silently went back to the piano to pack her things.

"To Alice" was the last song she played today, and it was time for her to go back to rest after playing.

Lu Yuan didn't think much, but went directly to the second floor and walked towards the last row of boxes.

"Maybe you should agree with her."

"what?"

When Lu Yuan walked to the end of the aisle, he saw a middle-aged man in his forties leaning on the railing and looking at the coffee hall. After feeling Lu Yuan approaching, he turned his head and showed a meaningful smile .

Lu Yuan looked at this middle-aged man a little strangely.

In his mind, he didn't know this man.

"This little girl is a stubborn person, and of course she is also a person who is eager for approval. She hopes to get your approval. It can be seen that he has worked hard during this time."

"Um... I don't disagree." Lu Yuan was a little surprised.

"She wants to see your admiring eyes, but she can't see the admiration in your eyes, so she is a little disappointed."

"..." After hearing the middle-aged man's words, Lu Yuan didn't know how to respond for a while.

Did he say that he didn't understand the real deep meaning in the piano piece "To Alice"?

Or, does he say that he doesn't know how to appreciate?

Wouldn't that be a shame, a shame?

Unlearned and incompetent...?

Lu Yuan shook his head inwardly.

It seems that I have to work hard on the piano in the future, otherwise I don't know how to agree with others?

No, this shit is too nonsense, right?

Normal people don't pay attention to these details, okay?

"Well, I'll go in first, I have an appointment..."

"I'm the one who wants to see you."

"what?"

"I heard you like smoking a lot?"

"well enough."

"How much do you smoke a day?"

"Uh... Actually, not many."

"Not much is how much?"

"About a pack or so."

"..."

The middle-aged man looked at Lu Yuan and suddenly felt that this kid was dishonest.

One pack a day is not too much?

How much is too much?

I haven't smoked a pack a day for many years!

you boy...

It's quite capable.

"Do you smoke? I brought two packs."

"Pick out the root, actually I don't smoke much."

"Well, I understand."

"Honglan or Huaxia?"

"You smoke "Red Orchid"?"

"Yes, I smoke this all the time."

Lu Yuan nodded and subconsciously opened a pack of "Red Orchid" and handed it to the middle-aged man. The middle-aged man's eyes lit up when he saw "Red Orchid", and he took it and ordered it immediately, looking like a skilled old driver.

"I haven't smoked this kind of cigarette for many years, and the taste is still so authentic..."

"I've always liked smoking this."

"How many years have you smoked?"

"Seven or eight years."

"I can't tell, I'm still an old smoker."

"It's okay. In fact, I don't smoke often. I only smoke when I'm bored."

"If you can kill one pack a day, you'll be bored all day."

"got used to……"

"Smoking is harmful to your health and you will get lung cancer. One pack a day is too harsh."

"I'm also thinking about reducing it a little bit."

"Quit it."

"Can you quit? People who have quit smoking, how hard they are to themselves!"

"Hahaha."

In fact, the two of them are the kind of people who share the same smell, and both of them smelled the tobacco smell on each other, so when the two cigarettes were lit, they both sat in the box and enjoyed the rising smoke, everything was in harmony. It goes without saying.

This is a feeling of enjoyment like a confidant.

Although smoking to get this feeling is really nonsense.

The middle-aged man saw sincerity from Lu Yuan, and at the same time, he didn't have that sense of restraint, and his whole person was very natural.

Lu Yuan saw kindness and peace from the middle-aged man, and this feeling is very comfortable.

"I've watched your movie, it's very good, and the actors you're looking for are also quite good at acting. More importantly, your idea is very good, and you can earn the box office steadily at a small cost. It's pretty stable, and your ideas are pretty good. .”

"Um, thank you."

"Do you know who I am?"

"I didn't know it before, but I should know more or less now."

"Oh?"

"You should be the boss of Tianhe Cinemas. Even if you're not the boss, you should be a high-level figure." Lu Yuan laughed.

"Well, you guessed it right, my name is Wang Yaohua, and I'm the boss of Tianhe Cinemas."

"Oh, it's a pleasure to meet you, brother Wang, hello, hello..." Lu Yuan was pleasantly surprised at first, and then quickly stood up and shook hands with the smiling Wang Yaohua, feeling very flattered at the same time.

"What did you call me?" But Wang Yaohua's cheerful expression suddenly stagnated.

"Brother Wang, I think calling you Uncle Wang is a bit... inappropriate?" Lu Yuan looked at the middle-aged man, and felt that the middle-aged man was not too old, and it was a bit weird to call you Uncle.

"Brother Wang..." Wang Yaohua shook his head with a dumbfounded expression, "What are your plans for this movie?"

"Wait for his release."

"No, I mean do you take it to Berlin, or to Taiwan? Or do you have to do both?"

"What's the difference?" Lu Yuan immediately understood after seeing Wang Yaohua's expression.

Berlin Film Festival or Taiwan Golden Horse Awards...

After all, literary films still have a chance to win awards.

The box office is second, and winning prizes is the real thing...

"Berlin will be in March next year, and Taiwan will be in November. Of course, they can be sent separately before the release. There is also a film festival in Spain that can also be sent."

"Do you think you can win an award?"

"It is impossible for art films to have much box office. Their value is to be nominated and win awards... I am very optimistic about "Buried Alive."

"Then...you mean..."

"Send them all for a try, it doesn't hurt to win or not."

"Well... that's right." Lu Yuan nodded after looking at Wang Yaohua's serious face.

It seems that "Buried Alive" in that world won a lot of awards, and the word-of-mouth box office is flying?

………………………

We chatted with Wang Yaohua until midnight, basically the two of them were drinking coffee and smoking, so two packs of cigarettes would be gone soon.

At one o'clock in the middle of the night, Lu Yuan returned to the company in Wang Yaohua's Rolls-Royce.

Wang Yaohua glanced at Lu Yuan's company, and then at Lu Yuan again, with some emotion on his face, but finally he paid attention to the next sentence of "work hard, and smoke less in the future" and left.

Looks like Lu Yuan's elder...

When Lu Yuan opened the door to enter the company, he found that Fatty Wei was not asleep...

Not only did I not sleep, but...

"Hold the grass, A Yuan, good news, good news, I received a good script, and there is a character in it that is very suitable for you!"

"what?"

"Protagonist!"

"so smart?"

"Yes! The male protagonist is a homeless man who is also a smoker, alcoholic, and drug addict, and it's the kind of inspirational movie that no one loves..."

"???"

When Lu Yuan heard this, he was stunned.

What?
