"Hahahaha~~!!!"

"..."

As soon as Jiang Xiao walked into the door of Lemon Entertainment, he immediately heard a burst of hearty laughter, just like the laughing characters in movies and TV series.

But in reality, it’s rare to see someone smile so exaggeratedly and grandiosely.

And the owner of the laughter is a handsome guy, even though he can't compare to him, well...it's not that Jiang Xiao is narcissistic, just telling the truth.

Anyway, he is a very good-looking handsome guy. He is quite tall, probably close to 1.9 meters tall, but his face is rather dark. Could it be that he works as a lifeguard at the beach?

In short, this tall dark-faced handsome guy smiled exaggeratedly and came to him in two or three steps, making a gesture of hugging him.

"Um...you are?"

As a last resort, Jiang Xiao, who took a step back to avoid, also asked the other party directly and clearly.

At the same time, I also had some doubts in my heart. Could this guy be the person Bai Yingzhen said he was looking for on the phone, an old acquaintance? I didn’t see that he was old... uh, familiar?

You know, Jiang Xiao came to the company specifically because of a phone call saying that someone was looking for him, and he was an old acquaintance.

"Why, your kid is now a star and you don't even recognize me? It's me, Zhang Xueliang."

"Ah, Zhang Xueliang?"

When Jiang Xiao heard the name, he was immediately stunned. What the hell? Marshal Zhang showed up. Wasn't the man in 2001... Even if he is still alive, he should be 108 years old.

No, it seemed wrong. At a certain moment, something came to mind in his memory. He did seem to know a guy named "Zhang Xueliang".

But that guy was obviously a fat white guy, and there was no similarity at all with the handsome black-faced guy in front of him.

"Zhang of Zhang, Zhang Xueliang, Grade 1, Class 1, look."

Seeing that Jiang Xiao seemed to have no impression of him, and also realized that Zhang Xueliang might have changed a bit, he simply took out a photo from his body and showed it.

"This, so you are really Zhang Xueliang? You...haven't this change been too big? Your mother probably won't be able to recognize her when she sees it. Look, you look like you just came back from Africa. How did you become like this?

What has life done to you?"

Seeing the group photo, Jiang Xiao was already sure that the handsome black-faced guy in front of him was the Zhang Xueliang he remembered, a junior high school classmate with whom he had a close relationship, and scenes from the past quickly emerged.

This allowed him to punch the opponent with one punch and tease the opponent easily.

Although I haven't seen him for many years, after confirming that he is really the person, those familiar feelings from back then emerged again.

"Hahaha, you are right, I really just came back from Africa, where I participated in peacekeeping and just retired."

"Here you are, kid. I heard the news not long after I returned to China that you have become a big star. Originally, I thought you would most likely become a painter, the kind who hides in dimly lit places and sketches all day long. You know

Yes, hehe!"

Zhang Xueliang, who put away the photo, did not forget to respond to Jiang Xiao with a "hehe" smile.

"I understand. Let's go and find a place to chat inside. It's so unexpected. I didn't expect you to show up suddenly. Didn't you study abroad? Why did you become a soldier again? Why did you go to peacekeeping?"

While pulling Zhang Xueliang towards the reception room, Jiang Xiao sighed without hesitation.

"Hey, don't mention it. You also know my grades. After junior high school, I was thrown abroad and didn't learn anything. I was admitted to a pheasant university and was dropped out of school halfway."

"In the end, my family members threw me into the army again..."

Zhang Xueliang, who had nothing to hide, talked about his experiences over the years.

…………

In a private room of a hotel.

"You have retired now, what are your plans next?"

Maybe it was because they hadn't seen each other for many years, and there was so much to talk about. Jiang Xiao and Zhang Xueliang chatted until noon without knowing it, and then found a restaurant to eat and chat. Until now, he paid more attention to the other party's answer.

Plan to come down.

"I don't know, life in the army is monotonous and there are rules for everything. Now I really haven't thought about what I want to do in the future. I accidentally saw your news, so I asked about it and then came over."

"Oh, who would have thought that the person you were back then would now become an actor and a star. It's a fantasy, but it's a very real reality."

Regarding Jiang Xiao's huge change, Zhang Xueliang sincerely felt that the deviation was too big and that he had an illusion that he dared not recognize.

However, after meeting each other, the familiar feeling from back then was restored again. There were not many people he could regard as true friends. He was unable to keep in touch with Jiang Xiao due to various reasons, and he regretted it for a long time.

.

I never thought that we would meet again in this way. It was a twist of fate, but it was also a lucky thing.

"My brother has been artistic since childhood, so why is it so strange to become an actor?"

Seeing that Zhang Xueliang even used the adjective "fantasy", Jiang Xiao also smiled happily.

"I think it's an artistic bug, but to be honest, I just watched your movie "Wushuang", and I feel like I'm torn apart from who I remember you to be. If you ask me, the actor is really amazing."

Zhang Xueliang also said with emotion.

"How amazing it is. Do you want to give it a try? You haven't decided what to do yet? Then come to my company and become an actor. My friends will support you, haha!"

After saying this jokingly, Jiang Xiao felt that if Zhang Xueliang really wanted to try, he would really be willing to help.

"Forget it about being an actor. After watching the movies you acted in, I'm not a human being. I definitely won't be able to do it. As for investing, it's okay. Hey, how are the profits from your business?"

Zhang Xueliang, who kept shaking his head, still knew how much he weighed.

"You really know how to describe it. Of course, the profit is related to the box office performance. You can feel it very intuitively. For example, my previous movie "Love Is Not Blind", how much do you think I earned?"

"How many?"

"About 70 million or so."

"70 million? Is there an extra zero? Let me go... It's faster than grabbing money. Is it so profitable? It makes me want to invest in this industry!"

Zhang Xueliang was really surprised by the figure of 70 million, and he really didn't expect it.

"This situation is naturally not common. It is not easy to make a hit. Most of them still lose money. But if you really have the idea of ​​​​investing, you can come to me. I can't guarantee how much you can make, but it is definitely not easy to lose money."

Jiang Xiao didn't speak too fully, leaving some room. He was confident, so his promises to others should naturally be more realistic, or more credible.

"Hey, Jiang Xiao, do you think you can shoot blockbusters like those from foreign countries? I can help you find genuine equipment, be it sea, land or air. How about shooting a tank battle? Just thinking about it makes you a little excited."

After all, he came from the army, and Zhang Xueliang still has this aspect in his heart.

Originally, he just came here to catch up with Jiang Xiao, but now he really feels a little moved, always looking for something to do. Anyway, for him, no matter what he does, it is a new attempt and a new beginning.

"You are a retired soldier, but you talk so well..."

When Jiang Xiao heard Zhang Xueliang's praise of Haikou, he started teasing him.

Of course, that's what he said on the surface, but he actually believed it in his heart, because his buddy's father was a lieutenant colonel back then. Combined with the words "being thrown into the army by his family", he could unintentionally reveal some information.

, he believed it must not be simple.

…………

The next day, on the set of "The Big Man Gets Married" in Beijing.

Jiang Xiao appeared here, here to visit the class, of course, mainly to visit Tong Liyan's class.

But this level of relationship is naturally difficult to reveal. Fortunately, Lemon Entertainment is also the main investor in "The Big Man Gets Married", which gave him an excuse to come over.

However, when he walked into the set, he didn't see Miss Yaya first. Xu Zheng's bald head caught his eye first, as if he was looking down at the script.

After thinking about it, Jiang Xiao finally walked over and greeted Xu Zheng, who subconsciously raised his head when he heard the movement and happened to see him: "Hello, Teacher Xu Zheng, nice to meet you."

"Jiang, hello Mr. Jiang, you're too polite. Just call me Lao Xu. I'm glad to see you too."

Even though Jiang Xiao suddenly appeared unexpectedly, Xu Zheng, who put down the script and stood up after reacting, responded enthusiastically.

Then I sighed silently in my heart. After all, the person in front of me is much younger than him, but his achievements are far greater than his. Even the new movie he is filming now, the other party is also the main investor.

There is a saying that "comparison between people makes people angry to death", and he was probably the one who was "irritated to death" when compared to others.

"Then don't be polite..."

Jiang Xiao smiled and quickly found a topic to chat with Xu Zheng to get acquainted with him. After all, this future was doing very well.

Maybe he can make the "" series of movies first, or continue to find Bald Xu to star in it. Now that he has thought of it and met it, he will grab it. This is fate.

But they didn't even exchange a word. The director of "A Man Got Married" might have come over to greet him after being notified, and even Zhu Yawen came over unexpectedly, so Jiang Xiao also knew that the other party was also participating in this film.

In this drama, he played the second male lead who seemed to be played by Guo Jinfei in my memory.

Of course, Tong Liyi, the main target of his secret visit, also appeared. Jiang Xiao also caught a hint of joy in the young lady's eyes.

The woman seemed very surprised by his arrival.

…………

It was night, after dinner, Jiang Xiao drove to send Tong Liya back.

It turned out that his house was relatively close, and he even had to pass by the road outside on the way. Out of politeness, he invited the young lady to come up and have a cup of hot tea or something. After all, it was quite cold in Beijing in December.

"Brother, do you live alone?"

After walking into the house, she looked around and then looked at Jiang Xiao who was looking for slippers for herself, and then Tong Liyan asked.

"Li Ying also lives here. The capital is so big that it's not easy to live there. Anyway, I have a lot of rooms."
