Huayu: From charlatan to great entertainer

Chapter 5 Shopping with a Beautiful Sister (2)

This is true. Zhou Xun and Jiang Qinqin are both frequent guests in domestic TV dramas, so they are naturally familiar with superstitious or mystical behaviors on the crew.

The opening ceremony requires burning incense. The table is covered with red velvet cloth, and a seated statue of Guan Yu or other gods is placed on the table. An incense burner, a suckling pig, and fruits are presented.

The camera must also be covered with red cloth, and it can only be opened when the start of filming is announced. The day must also be carefully selected. If there is a temple with a lot of incense nearby, the creators must go there to worship.

There are countless other rules, such as women cannot sit on prop boxes and lens boxes, otherwise the lens will be out of focus (wet), and must give red envelopes to the living people who died in the film and take a bath to ward off bad luck.

Especially the Hong Kong crew. Not to mention the distant past, the "Infernal Affairs" which will be released next year held a large-scale worship ceremony to start filming, and also invited the White Dragon King of Thailand to preside over the blessing ceremony.

Later, White Dragon King suggested that "The Departed" be renamed "Infernal Affairs". After the film became a big hit, his fame rose even more and he gained more trust from Eagle King Li Shoucheng.

In his previous life, he made his mark in the public relations industry of the entertainment industry with his professional abilities. In this life, he is clothed in the cloak of religious mysticism, which undoubtedly makes it easier for him to act.

Zhou Xun suddenly said, "By the way, Qinqin, isn't Li Dawei going to film a new movie next year? Why don't you introduce him to Lu Kuan?"

Jiang Qinqin was stunned for a moment: "Let me ask."

Li Dawei is her ex-boyfriend. Seeing Zhou Xun say it without any scruples in front of Lu Kuan, an outsider, she felt a little uncomfortable for a moment.

Lu Kuanxin understood, that was "The Golden Age".

Later, director Li Dawei directed "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" in succession, completing the trilogy.

Da Mimi has some roles in "The Legend of Red Mansions", and Jiang Qinqin will reunite with her ex-boyfriend in "The Legend of Red Mansions".

Lu Kuan parked the car and took the two of them into the New World Department Store. This shopping mall, which was only opened in 96, is more upscale than the commercial building. The Dunhill and Montblanc counters that only a few people saw on the first floor are beyond the reach of the working class.

Lu Kuan stood behind the two ladies very gentlemanly, admiring their charm that could not be hidden even with their full armor.

In 2001, there were no street photography, fan clubs, or fanatical fans. Even though both of them got rid of their assistants today, they were not very worried about safety issues in such a high-end shopping mall.

"Xun'er, please stop talking later. Your voice is too recognizable."

Jiang Qinqin wore a pair of oversized frog-eye glasses and a scarf covered the lower half of her pretty face. If you didn't look closely, you could hardly see her features.

"Okay, let's go buy Lu Kuan some clothes first, otherwise everyone will stare at us along the way."

This is the truth. These days you hardly see people wearing strange clothes on the streets, and the little Taoist priest's attire is too conspicuous.

The three of them passed by "European and American luxury brands" such as Hugo Boss, Armani, and Dior, and walked into "domestic luxury brands" such as Goldlion and Youngor.

Lu Kuan weighed his current wealth and walked into a Yageo store. The saleswoman came up to him enthusiastically and greeted him.

"Please sit down for a moment. I'll be quick."

The two female stars were not willing to be lonely, and followed him closely: "As a man, you don't know what to match. We will choose for you."

Women always have the strongest desire to control things like dressing and matching. The two of them came out this time just to go shopping and relax, and picking clothes for Lu Kuan was just for fun.

The salesperson looked at the three men and women in strange clothes without saying a word, but the man's image and temperament were too prominent.

The economies of Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai are prosperous, and the coastal areas are also open-minded. Rumors of wealthy women keeping mistresses are commonplace, and common people are accustomed to this. This young Taoist priest, with his handsome and clear appearance, seems qualified to be a gigolo, but his aloof and unrestrained demeanor doesn't make him someone who would easily fall for a woman.

Jiang Qinqin knew more about clothing and matching. She also had a younger brother who was about the same age as Lu Kuan, so she naturally took charge of directing the salesgirl.

"The one with the dark blue, mercerized fabric, yes, that one."

"Get him a white shirt, one that's slim-fitting."

Zhou Xun stared at the little Taoist's lower body for a long time, and couldn't help pinching his throat: "Find a pair of shallow crotch trousers, not this suit."

Jiang Qinqin grabbed Lu Kuan, tightened his waist and roughly measured it, then told the salesperson: "About 84 feet. Take the size . It's quite sturdy."

Zhou Xun swayed and started to pick up his tie again.

Lu Kuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he let Jiang Qinqin fiddle with her clothes and went into the fitting room with a pile of clothes in his arms.

When he came out with smoothed wrinkles on his body in a dragon-like stride, not only Jiang Qinqin and Zhou Xun, but even the two salesgirls were dazzled by his presence.

The upper body is a low-key and serious midnight blue suit, and the white slim shirt outlines the faint outline of the chest muscles. It is not as exaggerated as those of bodybuilders, but highlights the ability and sexual tension.

The shallow-crotch trousers Zhou Xun chose for his lower body fit him perfectly, wrapping his streamlined legs appropriately. The shallow-crotch design fully displayed his leg lines, like two uncarved white marble pillars.

He has a tie in his hand, but he doesn't know how to tie it.

Zhou Xun and Jiang Qinqin were stunned for a moment, then stood up and helped him tidy up.

"Lower your head!"

Jiang Qinqin skillfully tied his tie, then tucked it into his suit and smoothed it out with satisfaction. Her delicate hands slid across Lu Kuan's chest with a warm touch, a little bit ambiguous.

"It fits perfectly! Like a male model!"

"Yes! You two beauties have great taste!"

Both salesmen praised the customer highly, thinking that the deal was a sure win.

"Well, really handsome, the only thing missing is a pair of shoes!" Zhou Xun looked up and down at the little Taoist priest with satisfaction. He was still wearing the leather shoes from the fitting room.

Choosing clothes for Lu Kuan and the outstanding effect on his body gave Jiang Qinqin a high emotional value. She took out a card and gave it to the salesperson, indicating that she would pay the bill.

"Hey! Sister Jiang, no, no, I can do it myself!"

"Oh, I made your clothes dirty, I'll give this one to you!"

Zhou Xun also advised: "It's only a few thousand dollars, don't be polite, and be our assistant and carry our bags later as a favor."

"Okay." The young Taoist priest felt helpless and at a loss as to whether to laugh or cry. He never expected that he could still experience the feeling of being kept in his past and present life.

The sisters of this era know how to care for others, unlike the sisters in later generations who are all little princesses and won’t tell you which KTV they work in when asked.
