Chapter 045 Cell Phone
"Goodbye Brother Youpeng, goodbye Sister Jingwen."
Outside the hot pot restaurant, Jiang Xiao waved his hand one last time and sent Su Youpeng and Jia Jingwen away as they got into their own nanny cars.
The hot pot meal lasted for more than two hours, and the guests and hosts had a great time.
Then he added that as he expected, the manager of the hot pot restaurant did what he guessed. During the final checkout, he asked three celebrities to take a photo with them and even offered them a 50% discount. He was so enthusiastic that he couldn't refuse.
Of course, you can’t refuse taking photos.
However, Jiang Xiao was able to avoid the fate of being hung up on the wall. As soon as he refused, the manager stopped insisting, which was exactly what he expected from Si Hao.
Not to mention these, he turned around and looked at Gao Yuanyuan who had not left yet and said: "Sister Yuanyuan, where is your nanny car?"
"I don't have a nanny car. It belongs to the company. I usually don't use it in my personal time."
Gao Yuanyuan came here alone today, and there was no driver or assistant waiting for her at any time. Her temperament is very low-key.
At the end, she continued to speak on the pretext of the conversation: "Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's take a walk, just for a bit of exercise, and we will take a taxi back later."
"OK!"
It wasn't too early, but it wasn't too late either. It was almost ten o'clock. Seeing Gao Yuanyuan taking the initiative to invite him, Jiang Xiao naturally wouldn't refuse him "because he is an orphan".
"Jiang Xiao, you won't be angry with me, right? Sister Jingwen and I were actually just joking. Mainly because we thought it was a bit monotonous to eat together, so we each called a friend over."
Under the dusk light, Gao Yuanyuan glanced at Jiang Xiao and quickly turned back. She was afraid that the other party would think too much, so she took the initiative to speak openly.
"Of course not. You were the first to think of me. This proves that Sister Yuanyuan regards me as a friend. It also gave me an unexpected opportunity to audition. I can't thank you enough."
Sincerely, Jiang Xiao completely believed Gao Yuanyuan's words.
He could even guess that it was the young lady who mentioned him in front of Jia Jingwen more than once, which made the latter become more curious about him invisibly, so he naturally joked about it.
If he gets angry just because of such a trivial thing, then he must be very sensitive and stingy.
"Okay, there seems to be a movie theater over there. How about I invite you to watch a movie?"
It's okay to just expose this kind of thing, there is no need to say more, so I happened to see Gao Yuanyuan in a movie theater not far ahead, so I changed the topic directly.
"No, I'll be on pins and needles when I watch a movie with a girl and ask the girl to pay for it, so Sister Yuanyuan still leaves this opportunity to me and makes sure I show my attentiveness."
"Okay, I think it's my fault that I don't allow you to be attentive, so just do it!"
Gao Yuanyuan raised the corner of her mouth slightly and said she was optimistic about the arc. In the end, she didn't argue much with Jiang Xiao.
…………
Less than ten minutes later, Jiang Xiao and Gao Yuanyuan happened to sit in the screening room of the cinema.
Then the two chose a foreign movie, "Pirates of the Caribbean", a Hollywood movie where the word "pirates" cannot be dropped casually.
It has been about 20 days since this movie was released, and it currently has a cumulative box office of more than 20 million.
It sounds a bit miserable, but in this year, the domestic film market environment is like this, and the total box office has not even reached one billion, so what else can we expect.
Even since the beginning of box office statistics, you can count on your fingers the number of movies with a box office of over 100 million.
From "True Lies" in 1995, to "Titanic" in 1998, "Life and Death" in 2000, "Pearl Harbor" in 2001, and "Heroes" in 2002, these are the five movies.
Three Hollywood blockbusters and two domestic films.
Among them, "Decision of Life and Death" is still the main theme, and the government has booked a large number of theaters. It is a movie that tells a similar story to the future TV series "In the Name of the People".
It's similar to "Titanic", and a big boss appreciates it.
All in all, the domestic film market will have to wait until the beginning of 2010 to reach its true golden period.
This is actually good. It allows Jiang Xiao to accumulate time. When the time comes, he will know where the wind outlet is and he will not be able to fly accurately.
Going back to "Pirates of the Caribbean", this is the first film in the series. It has no influence from the previous film and its popularity in China is average. Otherwise, it would not have such a small box office, and it has not even crossed the 50 million threshold.
I have to say that so many years have passed in my memory that Jiang Xiao has basically forgotten the details of this movie. Now that I have rewatched it, I don’t find it boring at all.
But he still saw a sense of history in this movie, and the special effects were relatively fake, even though this movie could already represent the world's most advanced technological level at this time.
"Well……"
At a certain moment, Jiang Xiao was quietly watching a movie and subconsciously reached out to grab the popcorn, but accidentally grabbed one of his hands. Could there be a popcorn thief?
Well, the thought was too strange. It was obviously Gao Yuanyuan next to him, and she didn't know how she got his popcorn here.
At that moment, both sides quickly retracted their hands as if they were electrocuted.
After a slight hesitation, he said in a low voice: "Sister Yuanyuan, have you finished your popcorn? Then take mine and eat it!"
"No, I still have it, I just didn't pay attention and grabbed the wrong one."
Gao Yuanyuan, whose cheeks felt slightly warm, quickly responded in a low voice after hearing Jiang Xiao's words.
She really subconsciously grabbed the wrong place and grabbed someone's hand without even thinking about it.
Hearing this, Jiang Xiao didn't say anything more about this little charm, and quickly continued watching the movie.
In this way, we waited until the movie ended, which was already around 0:30.
Jiang Xiao, who was not at ease, even took Gao Yuanyuan home in a taxi, and then prepared to go back to his rental house.
However, when he was walking halfway down the road, Jiang Xiao was about to take out his cell phone and take a look. After touching it, he suddenly realized that there was no trace of his cell phone anywhere in his body.
I immediately realized that it must have been accidentally dropped somewhere.
And the biggest possibility is a hot pot restaurant, followed by a movie theater.
This made him frown a little, not because he thought about a mobile phone, but the mobile phone number in it, such as the phone number he just exchanged with Su Youpeng today, was associated with an opportunity.
"Young man, what's wrong with you? Are you rummaging around? You don't have any money with you, right?"
The taxi driver driving in front saw the guest in the rearview mirror, turned over and over again, and finally couldn't help asking.
"No, I seem to have lost my mobile phone, but I still have the money. Don't worry, the fare will not be reduced. If not, you can just take the money first, and you won't have to look for it again for a while."
Jiang Xiao was thinking about how to deal with the mobile phone problem. When he was awakened by the taxi driver's voice again, he had an idea and immediately took out a 100 yuan bill and handed it over.
After the taxi driver subconsciously took the money, he continued: "By the way, driver, can I borrow your mobile phone? I want to call my own mobile phone to see if I can find it."
"Oh, it turns out I lost my phone. No problem, it's not a problem. Just take it and make a call!"
The taxi driver figured out the reason and saw the money. After reacting, he quickly delivered his cell phone to Shuang Shuang.
Chapter completed!
