Dust is like a city

Chapter 67 The old man

Mr. Liao was sitting in the middle of the hall on the second floor, surrounded by a group of people, basically all of them were of the older generation, and director Lin Fengping was one of them.

Huo Rongxuan walked over and greeted politely: "Old Liao."

Elder Liao raised his head to look at Huo Rongxuan, and said with a smile, "Hey, Xiao Huo is here? How is your grandfather recently?"

"His old man is very good, but he stayed in a deserted country abroad. In recent years, he often talked about returning to China." Huo Rongxuan smiled lightly.

"Yes, yes, domestic is better. People of our age can't get used to going abroad." Mr. Liao nodded, and then said to Lin Fengping beside him, "It's not easy, Ah Lin, three times a year. I've been abroad for a hundred days."

Lin Fengping smiled and said: "I need it for work. No, did you return to China immediately after work? In recent years, the domestic film market has been getting better and better. I heard that Huo Shao, you have also opened a film and television company, right?"

"Yeah, I'm not very familiar with this area, and I have to rely on Mr. Liao and Director Lin in the future." Huo Rongxuan said.

"What do you say about relying on what you don't rely on? It's all your young people's world now." Liao Lao smiled, "I know that your kid has a poisonous vision, and it won't be long before your company will have a place in City A. When the time comes, I will think Don't forget about me when you cooperate, Xiao Huo."

"Mr. Liao, you are joking. If you are willing to invest, then we will be very happy." Huo Rongxuan said, "However, the company has just started, and it is not yet involved in big projects like movies. I plan to ask Director Lin for advice and experience."

"Haha, Young Master Huo flattered you." Lin Fengping smiled, and then his eyes fell on Chen Qianchen behind Huo Rongxuan, "Is this the newcomer of your company?"

"Yes." Huo Rongxuan turned sideways slightly, allowing Lin Fengping to see the person more clearly, and introduced, "Chen Qianchen."

Chen Qianchen stepped forward slightly, nodded and said, "Director Lin."

Lin Fengping nodded, and took a little look at Chen Qianchen. His appearance was not bad, but he looked young and didn't know how good his acting skills were, so he asked, "Have you ever acted in a movie before?"

"Not before, but now I'm filming a TV series." Chen Qianchen answered truthfully.

"Oh... have you ever heard of movies?"

"Hmm..." Chen Qianchen nodded.

I have never filmed a movie, and even the first TV series is just being filmed. No matter how you look at it, you are a newcomer among newcomers. It is really difficult for an international director like Lin Fengping who employs strict personnel. On the other hand, Old Liao is kind. Smiling: "I just like newcomers. The newcomers now have a drive. Young people, follow your boss Huo and work hard, and there must be a bright future."

"Yes." Chen Qianchen replied with a slight smile.

Lin Fengping planned to return to China to make a movie after a few years this time, and the biggest investor in this movie was Mr. Liao. When he saw what Mr. Liao said, he immediately understood that Mr. Liao wanted to sell Huo Rongxuan's face. Willingness, he did not refuse to follow the principle of favor, so he said: "Many people know that I plan to return to China to shoot a movie this time. At present, the hero and heroine are all set, and it will start up in a few days. I don't know if your schedule will match. .”

Chen Qianchen was a little surprised, he didn't expect that he might actually star in a movie directed by Lin Fengping.

"It's a movie about ancient healers. There are basically no action scenes. If you are interested, come and try it out." Lin Fengping said flatly.

Chen Qianchen glanced at Huo Rongxuan beside him, and Huo Rongxuan smiled slightly: "Thank you Director Lin, we will definitely come over some other day..." Before he could finish speaking, Huo Rongxuan's sentence suddenly stopped.

Everyone present couldn't help but glanced at him, but Huo Rongxuan's eyes locked on one direction, and he narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was trying to distinguish what he was looking for. Everyone couldn't help but follow his gaze. Today's dinner There were a lot of people there, and there were naturally a lot of people in the direction he was looking at, and no one knew what he was looking at.

"Mr. Huo...?" Chen Qianchen reminded him in a very low voice.

It was only then that Huo Rongxuan realized that his mind had been distracted, and when he came back to his senses, he tried his best to smile: "Sorry, I saw an acquaintance just now."

"Haha, there are a lot of people here today, probably many of you are with us, but everyone is here for dinner today, Xiao Huo, don't be in a hurry to discuss business." Mr. Liao joked.

Huo Rongxuan smiled lightly: "Old Liao was joking."

Chen Qianchen stood aside and looked at Huo Rongxuan. He felt that Huo Rongxuan's smile seemed a bit forced at the moment. Although the curvature of the smile was the same as before, it was different from the previous chat and laughter. absent-minded.

"Hey, you've been standing still after talking for a long time, sit down quickly," said Old Liao.

Huo Rongxuan said politely: "No, I've interrupted your conversation for a long time, and there are quite a lot of acquaintances here. I'll go down and take a look, so I won't accompany you."

"Haha, that's okay. Young people want to talk to young people after all. It's really boring to be with us old men." Old Liao laughed, and the others followed suit.

After bidding farewell to Mr. Liao, Chen Qianchen went downstairs with Huo Rongxuan.

As expected, almost as soon as Huo Rongxuan turned around, the smile on his face disappeared instantly, his expression was cold, and his brows were knotted.

Chen Qianchen wanted to ask him what was wrong, but he didn't dare to speak, so he could only follow behind him.

After looking around on the second floor, Huo Rongxuan looked as if he hadn't found anything, then turned around and went down the first floor. For a moment, he even wondered if he was wrong, but after searching around on the first floor again, Huo Rongxuan There was an obvious flicker in his eyes, and his eyes were fixed on a young man in a suit and leather shoes with gold-rimmed glasses in the crowd.

Han, Han, Sen? !Huo Rongxuan raised his eyebrows.He appears here, that means...

Chen Qianchen noticed Huo Rongxuan's gaze, followed his gaze, and then saw a black-haired young man with a glass of red wine in his hand, raising his hand slightly in their direction.

Huo Rongxuan's figure didn't move, but the young man whispered goodbye to the people around him and walked towards them.

"Long time no see, Mr. Huo." The young man smiled slightly.

"Han Hansen? Why did you appear in China?" Huo Rongxuan's voice was a little cold, making it difficult to hear the tone.

The young man named Han Hansen smiled lightly: "Isn't our business just going where there is a job? I heard that Mr. Huo also started a company? I think I can understand it even more."

"Work?" Huo Rongxuan chewed the word for a while and then smiled, with a hint of sarcasm in his smile, "Haven't your jobs always been in the United States?"

"I'll always go back to China, after all, my family is here, Mr. Huo, don't you think so?" Han Hansen said.

Huo Rongxuan snorted coldly and didn't answer.

Even a fool could read that the atmosphere was very discordant, and Chen Qianchen stayed quietly on the side without interrupting.

"By the way, Yi Nian is also here. Do you want to see him? He drank a few more drinks just now, and now he is resting in the side hall. You haven't seen each other for a long time, right?" Han Hansen said.

Huo Rongxuan didn't speak, looked at him, just snorted without emotion, turned to Chen Qianchen and said, "Let's go."

Chen Qianchen nodded, and as soon as he turned around with Huo Rongxuan, Han Hansen behind him said: "Mr. Huo, Yi Nian came back this time for..." He paused again, "Just treat it as an old friend reminiscing about the old days. , it’s been so many years.”

Huo Rongxuan's footsteps seemed to be nailed to the ground, and after a while he turned around and said: "Yes, it's been so many years..."

Han Hansen didn't speak.

Huo Rongxuan turned around again, and left without looking back.

Huo Rongxuan was not in the mood to care about others at this dinner party. Many people came to say hello to him. He just nodded, and his frosty face could frostbite a group of people. He only took a glass of champagne halfway through, but he kept holding it He didn't drink a sip in his hand, and he was absent-minded and didn't know what he was thinking.

Chen Qianchen followed him all the time, not knowing what to say. After a long time, Chen Qianchen hesitated and said: "Mr. Huo, you haven't had dinner since you came from the company, right? Do you want something to eat? I'll get it for you."

"No need." Huo Rongxuan refused straight away, he was not in the mood to eat now.

"Then...how about eating some fruit?" Chen Qianchen suggested.

Huo Rongxuan didn't answer, Chen Qianchen said: "Let me get some for you." He said and walked to the buffet table.

Chen Qianchen had just picked up the plate and picked up two pieces of fruit, but Huo Rongxuan suddenly raised his head and said, "You can eat something here first, I'll go out for a while, and I'll be back later."

"...Mr. Huo..." Chen Qianchen was a little surprised, but before he could call him, Huo Rongxuan had already walked in one direction without looking back.

Chen Qianchen suddenly felt a little helpless. He thought about what Huo Rongxuan and Mr. Han said just now, and the person mentioned in their conversation.

Is... an old friend?

But Huo Rongxuan seems to be in a very bad mood, if so, it should be the kind of friend who has a very bad relationship, right?

But... something always feels wrong.

The shadow of an answer lingered vaguely in Chen Qianchen's heart, but he couldn't grasp its reality no matter what.

Looking at the two lonely pieces of fruit on the plate, Chen Qianchen was silent for a while, and finally chose to eat it by himself.

But at this moment, he suddenly heard a voice behind him——

"Qianchen...brother?"

It was a very familiar voice. After listening to it for four years, I could almost tell who it was without turning my head.

Chen Qianchen turned around and looked, the person standing behind him was none other than Yu Yang.

Huo Rongxuan asked the waiter where the side hall was. Walking all the way, he found that the unknown place was quite remote. In addition, everyone was busy socializing tonight, and almost no one came here to rest.

When he walked to the hidden but obviously unlocked door, Huo Rongxuan felt his fingertips tremble a little.

>>What are you here for?Why do you want to come here?Ask him why he returned home?

>> But what's the trouble?

His hand was already on the doorknob, and he chose to let go after turning it a bit. Just as he was about to walk away, he suddenly heard a voice from inside: "Is that you, Hansen?"

The voice that I haven't heard for many years is still familiar.Huo Rongxuan couldn't help but clenched his hand tightly.

"Han Sen?" It seemed that because there was no response, the voice came closer, as if walking over.

Huo Rongxuan stood at the same spot, neither walking nor entering at this moment.

The door was opened with a "click", and the person inside leaned out and said, "Han..." Then the whole person froze.

Huo Rongxuan looked at the person coming.

Such a long period of time did not seem to have left any traces on the other party's body. His eyes were wide open, and his expression of bewilderment seemed to be that of that young boy.

"Rong...Rong Xuan...?" The man's voice trembled slightly.

Huo Rongxuan looked at him squarely and said, "Long time no see."

Long time no see, Yi Nian.
