Chapter 313
At this moment, Wei Ming's breathing became heavier, while Miss Li Zhi held her breath. Wei Ming heard the movement when he went out, and the sofa was ultimately not as comfortable as the bed.
Wei Ming looked at Miss Li Zhi's exceptionally open neckline, and his thoughts flew to Mount Everest.
He wasn't someone who hadn't seen or experienced things, but in this life, Miss Li Zhi was indeed the most prominent in a certain aspect. Even a big foreign horse like Melinda was slightly inferior. Among Asians, she was indeed gifted, worthy of being called the Wei Ming among women.
However, Wei Ming didn't forget what he came here for. I came to use the bathroom!
He walked into the bathroom lightly and didn't calm down until he shook it clean for a long time.
However, after coming out, Miss Li Zhi's sleeping posture had changed, and it was even more open and deep, and even as long as he bent over slightly, he could see the end at a glance.
But Wei Ming was born under the red flag and grew up in the spring breeze. He has been upright since he was a child, and he is not someone who can't find a woman. He firmly refused to let the little head control the big head.
Do you think I'm A-Jie!
A-Ming, who had done enough psychological construction, returned to his room with a swing.
And Miss Li Zhi held her heart, only feeling regret. Is my charm not enough?
Just now, she hoped that A-Ming could be more proactive. With such a big opening, a pair of hands could easily get in, right?
Wei Ming, who returned to the room, also had no sleepiness. Today he is going to Madman Manga. He is leaving tomorrow, and he is prepared to do something for them again.
The manga Wei Ming prepared for the magazine is mostly male manga or funny manga for both men and women. "Happy Ghost" is biased towards a girl's perspective, but it is not written in enough detail, and he doesn't know how they are progressing. Today, he will write the character plot in more detail.
The images of girls like Vivian and Miss Li Zhi popped into his mind immediately. In addition, he wrote a suggestion at the very end: recruit two female editors.
Madman Manga's yang energy is too strong, basically all male workers, so he is afraid that they will not write good manga stories for girls.
After dawn, Wei Lingling hasn't woken up yet, and Miss Li Zhi has already started preparing breakfast.
Wei Ming came to the narrow kitchen smelling the fragrance of meat porridge.
"Ming Shao, you're awake." Miss Li Zhi greeted him. She had already put on her underwear.
Wei Ming said good morning, and then took a watery cucumber with thorns from the refrigerator to relieve the heat first.
Seeing Miss Li Zhi tie up her shoulder-length hair, but there were always a few strands of hair running out to block her sight.
Wei Ming suggested: "I feel you are more suitable for short hair."
"Short hair?" Miss Li Zhi frowned. Like a tomboy, can that look good?
Girls who are flat-chested are easy to be treated as boys with short hair, such as Chun Ge and Zeng Ge, but Miss Li Zhi, who has a bumpy figure, will increase a unique dashing charm with short hair.
Seeing that Miss Li Zhi didn't quite believe it, Wei Ming said: "You go ahead."
Then he took out paper and pen and started to draw Miss Li Zhi who was cooking.
"Ah, can I not move?" Miss Li Zhi asked with a spoon.
"You can move, whatever you want."
Wei Lingling, who had been listening outside the kitchen for a while, finally couldn't resist her curiosity and entered the kitchen, and saw Wei Ming drawing.
Aunt Lingling breathed a sigh of relief. She thought that these two were doing something beneficial to body and mind in their own kitchen.
Wei Lingling didn't say anything, just looked at Wei Ming's smooth brushwork and sighed. What kind of person is her eldest brother who she has never met, who could cultivate his nephew to be both civil and military, multi-talented, tall and big, handsome and dashing in that environment in the mainland.
After Wei Ming finished drawing, before Miss Li Zhi saw it, Wei Lingling said directly: "Xiao Li, you should cut your hair short."
Of course, it's not that any short hair looks good. Wei Ming drew the hairstyle of Miss Li Zhi in "Twin Dragons," which is very suitable for her.
After making breakfast, Miss Li Zhi, who wiped her hands, took over Wei Ming's sketch work. Looking at the fashionable and arrogant woman in the painting, she couldn't believe it: "Is this me?"
Wei Lingling: "Of course it's you. If you don't believe it, look in the mirror. The facial features are exactly the same, just the hairstyle has changed."
Miss Li Zhi really went to look in the mirror. It's true, it's really her. She can also have such temperament, such high spirits, and not be so earthy!
Of course, except for the change of hairstyle, Wei Ming also made adjustments in the handling of the eyes. At this time, Miss Li Zhi is not confident enough and rarely looks directly at others, and this is not something that can be changed by changing a hairstyle.
Miss Li Zhi begged for this portrait, preparing to start from the change of hairstyle.
After breakfast, Wei Lingling said: "Do you want to go to the toy factory with me to see, and help me draw a few pictures."
She is talking about Transformers. One Optimus Prime is not enough. You said there are two major camps and dozens of characters.
"This is not urgent. Wait until you return to the mainland with me and draw slowly. Today I am going to Madman Manga to see A-Long and the others. Everyone will be on the road together tomorrow."
Wei Lingling nodded. This is the truth. Miss Li Zhi hurriedly said: "Ming Shao, do you want me to accompany you?"
Wei Ming: "You'd better cut your hair first. Looking forward to seeing your new look."
Afterwards, the three went their own ways. Wei Ming went directly to Madman Manga. On the way, he bought a newspaper and learned that Elton John had already left Hong Kong for London the day before yesterday, and that interview on TVB was recorded.
However, the print media today began to report on the relationship between Wei Ming and Vivian. It seems that the news had been leaked long ago, otherwise the print media could not have reacted so quickly.
After going upstairs and coming to the company, Wei Ming saw that a new sign had been put up, as well as a new logo, which is a deformed body of the art characters "Madman." The two characters look like a painting, and it can be seen at a glance that it is from A-Long's hand, with a deep foundation in traditional Chinese painting.
As a result, when he met A-Long, he smiled and said: "I am so busy that my feet don't touch the ground. Where do I have the energy to design a logo? I entrusted Ajiang to do it. Not bad, right?"
Xu Jinjiang, ah. Wei Ming nodded. When Ajiang makes a name for himself in the Category III movie market in the future, and Madman Manga dominates Hong Kong, it can be considered a good story.
A-Long added: "It's a pity that he is not interested in manga, otherwise he could have an extra income."
Wei Ming felt that Xu Jinjiang's choice was very normal. It is difficult for bottom-level manga workers to support their families, but after entering the acting industry, there is more possibility of making a name for himself, and manga takes too much energy. After drawing manga, it is impossible to do anything else.
"Hello, Boss!"
Seeing Wei Ming, almost all of the company's twenty-plus employees stopped their work and stood up to pay tribute.
Originally, they didn't know how strong this new boss was, thinking he was just a mainlander who could write stories, and worried that the company would go bankrupt in a few months because they couldn't pay wages.
Now that they see it, he can earn millions with one song and make international superstars look at him differently, so how could he be short of that wage money? He is worthy of being a top talent from the mainland. This ability to attract money, among the four great talents in Hong Kong, who can compare to him except for Old Man Jin?
Because everyone stood up, the one person sitting down looked a bit eye-catching.
Wei Ming walked behind him and patted him.
"Ah! Teacher Wei." Wu Jing was startled and hurriedly covered the manga draft in his hand.
This kid has been following A-Long to Madman Manga recently. Although little Wu Jing is illiterate, he can read pictures. The manga here is much more interesting than those comic books at home.
Wei Ming glanced at it. In the manga Wu Jing was reading, there was a head monk with a big beard, a pig-headed man, and a monkey-headed man. Needless to say, it must be "Diary of Monk Sha."
He asked: "Who drew this?"
A thin boy stood up, "Boss, it's me."
Afraid that Wei Ming wouldn't remember, A-Long introduced: "This is the main writer of 'Diary of Monk Sha,' Huang Guoxing."
Wei Ming praised him: "Not bad, how many pages have you drawn?"
Huang Guoxing, who was praised by the boss, said: "I have drawn ten pages, and I have finished a small story."
Wei Ming nodded, and then paid attention to the progress of several other works.
"Diary of Monk Sha" is a fan work, and the progress is relatively fast. Like "If History Were a Group of Meows," only four or five pages have been drawn, and they are still spinning in the Qin Dynasty. Their biggest difficulty is that the historical knowledge of several screenwriters is relatively scarce, and the main writer Xie Zhirong doesn't know how to distinguish Qin, Han, Tang, and Song.
Wei Ming instructed: "Then go to HKU or CUHK to ask the history professors there, or directly invite a history teacher to serve as a consultant. This manga is for popularization, which is the most important thing not to be ambiguous."
Everyone nodded and listened obediently.
As the "Wind and Cloud" and "Riki-Oh," which are most in line with the tastes of Hong Kong manga audiences, the two main writers, Ma Rongcheng and Niu Lao, have been soaking in the company from morning to night for the past few days to study character settings and plots. Although the opening has not been drawn yet, Wei Ming is very satisfied with the character design drawings and gave some guidance.
Niu Lao said: "I also want to thank Brother Biao for being a model for me, so that I have the perfect Riki-Oh."
Wei Ming asked: "Where is Biaozi?"
A-Long came over and pulled Wei Ming into the office: "He is with your old ghost."
"Huh?"
"Ghost Grandpa said Biaozi is a martial arts genius and is preparing to teach him a few moves."
Wei Ming was depressed. Why did the old man never say such things to himself? It turns out I am not worthy.
Hmph, I was going to see you today, forget it, I won't go.
Wei Ming took out the script of "Happy Ghost" he wrote: "Who is the main writer responsible for 'Happy Ghost'?"
A-Long: "It's Zhao Rude, I'll call him over."
Zhao Rude's representative works are "The Emperor" and the adaptation of Jin Yong's manga. Among Shangguan Xiao Bao's disciples, he is relatively senior, having entered the industry in '75.
While waiting for Zhao Rude, the office phone rang. This is the editor-in-chief's office of Wei Madman, but Wei Ming asked A-Long to work here temporarily.
"Hello, Madman Manga." Wei Ming said.
"A-Ming, so you are back!" The voice of a young girl on the other end of the phone could not hide her excitement.
"Vivian? Why did you call here?"
"Ghost Uncle told me," Vivian, who was at her home at this time, said sweetly, "I called before, but you weren't there, and A-Long answered."
Just then A-Long came in. Hearing Wei Ming talking on the phone with a rippling face, he suddenly reacted. Oh my god, I said I forgot something.
Wei Ming still had a sense of proportion and said to Vivian: "I have official business here. I'll call you back after I finish talking."
"Hmm, I'll wait for you." After that, Vivian held her books and did her homework next to the phone.
Wei Ming chatted with Zhao Rude about the creative ideas of "Happy Ghost," and also gave him a relatively detailed script, basically the plot of the first part of the movie version, and urged him to invite a female screenwriter.
Afterwards, he chatted with A-Long about the planning of the first issue of the revival. In addition to the stories and ideas he provided, the apprentices also have some stories they have accumulated themselves. Although they are not long, they can be used as adjustments between those medium and long stories.
The problem is that the quality is not very high, like student exercises. A-Long still needs to adjust from the story and drawing skills.
"I think it definitely won't be done well in a few days, so I want to stay in Hong Kong for this summer vacation."
"Then are you going back to Beijing this time?"
"Still have to go back. I want to ask my classmates and friends from the Art Film Studio if they are willing to draw manga for us, come to Hong Kong or create and contribute directly in the mainland," Liu Rulong said, "Of course, the most important thing is to ask A-Ying if she is willing to come to Hong Kong with me." "Okay, then buy a ticket. We will fly back to Beijing directly this time."
Buying a ticket from Hong Kong is about money, there are not so many rules.
After A-Long went out, Wei Ming called back.
The other party answered in seconds: "A-Ming, you're done."
"Hmm, but I'm leaving tomorrow."
"Huh?" Vivian's voice sank, "Then when are you coming to Hong Kong again?"
Wei Ming: "This is hard to say, maybe next year, maybe the year after, at the latest the year after."
Hearing the next meeting date in "years," Vivian suddenly fell silent.
Wei Ming smiled: "What do you want to eat today? I'll treat you. We can meet one last time before I leave."
Originally, this meeting was left for the old ghost. Who told you not to teach me martial arts.
Vivian looked at her watch and hesitated for a long time: "Why don't you come to my house for a meal."
"Huh? Your house?"
Vivian: "Hmm, my mom is not home."
Now the second-hand van Wei Ming bought has been handed over to Uncle Liu. Wei Ming took a taxi to Hong Kong Island.
"Master, hurry up." Wei Ming was worried about Vivian, a little girl, being home alone.
And when Wei Ming was on the road, Vivian quickly went downstairs to buy groceries. Today she is prepared to cook a farewell dinner for A-Ming herself.
Of course, this meal is not the point.
At 12 noon, Wei Ming came to the village where Vivian and the others lived. This was his first time coming to her house.
After knocking on the door, Vivian opened the door for him wearing an apron. There was blood on the apron, and she was holding a knife in her hand: "Come in quickly."
Wei Ming said awkwardly: "Why don't I wait outside."
Vivian realized something was wrong and hurriedly hid the knife behind her: "I'm cutting vegetables."
Wei Ming: Am I your vegetable?
Entering the room, the living room is not big, a piano occupies a large part, and the dining table has to be folded, but it is very clean and tidy.
"You sit casually first, there are two more dishes." Vivian wiped her sweat.
Wei Ming really couldn't rest assured that such a small girl would handle a meal, so he rolled up his sleeves: "Let's do it together."
It's just some home-cooked food, nothing particularly amazing, but Vivian can almost independently complete a table of three dishes and one soup with fish and meat, which is already a surprise.
Wei Ming, this mainland gourmet, also slightly relaxed his standards and praised a few words, making the little girl happy.
"I'm an amateur at cooking, and I'm also an amateur at playing the piano, but I'm better than cooking," Vivian sat in front of the piano, "Do you want to listen?"
"Oh, what are you playing?" Wei Ming has heard many of Vivian's piano pieces, but he didn't know at the time that the girl sitting in front of the piano was her.
As soon as the prelude sounded, Wei Ming knew it was "Moonlight Shadow."
The effect of yesterday's TVB interview was immediate. Today, this record is selling like crazy in major audio-visual stores in Hong Kong. Those who didn't know this song before all want to see what kind of song can sell millions.
Unlike fans, Hong Kong singers are all in a hurry to find Wei Ming and want to ask for songs.
A million Hong Kong dollars can't be afforded, but 10,000 + share can be afforded.
10,000 for a song is already a sky-high price in Hong Kong. Wei Ming was only a thousand or so before. Big shots like "Hui Huang" might have thousands, but Wei Ming is a monk from outside, with Billboard and Elton John's endorsement.
It's just a pity that Wei Ming has had no news in Hong Kong since that day. Everyone guessed that he should have returned to the mainland. Some people even wanted to send someone to the mainland to ask for songs.
After the song ended, Wei Ming applauded gently: "Have you passed the grade? I feel your piano level is very high."
Vivian: "Not yet. The teacher suggested that I can take the exam this summer vacation, but this vacation is too busy, and I still have to learn to sing."
"Learn to sing, with whom?"
"Brother Zhang's teacher, Teacher Dai Sicong." Vivian said.
Wei Ming said "Oh," and then Vivian added: "After Teacher Dai's targeted explanation these few days, do you want to hear me sing 'First Love'?"
"Is there a guitar at home?"
"Huh?"
"Guitar, I can accompany you."
Hearing Wei Ming's words, Vivian happily opened the door of her boudoir and found a brand new guitar from inside.
"I just bought this after I became an apprentice. I'm not familiar with playing it myself." In the boudoir, Vivian handed it to A-Ming.
And the guitar is the instrument Wei Ming is most proficient in. Although the accompaniment of "First Love" needs to use a variety of instruments such as guitar, piano, accordion, etc., it is very layered, but the conditions are limited, and a guitar can barely be used.
Wei Ming first familiarized himself with this guitar and played a melody that was very strange but very good to Vivian.
"Hmm, I'm ready. I'll come first, you find a chance to insert." Wei Ming sat directly on Vivian's bed and started playing.
Vivian stood in front of A-Ming, closed her eyes and listened earnestly. This is it!
"Love has no experience / Discovered for the first time today / Meeting him from afar / That joy is so fresh..."
Vivian opened her mouth, and she successfully entered.
Her singing voice and Wei Ming's guitar sound matched very well. Vivian felt that it sounded much better than when she sang it alone before.
At this time, she had already opened her eyes, singing while looking at A-Ming, pouring out the affection in the lyrics to him, and occasionally walking and making expressions in front of him with her long legs. This singing also involves performance.
Four minutes is very short, and very long, as if many stories have happened.
After singing a song, Wei Ming lay on Vivian's bed holding the guitar and praised: "Perfect!"
Vivian said embarrassedly: "I also feel it's much stronger than at the beginning, but this time is the best one. Brother Zhang said that when I'm ready, I can borrow their company's recording studio for me to record the song."
Seeing Wei Ming keep his eyes closed, Vivian asked with a smile: "Why, are you still intoxicated by my singing?"
Wei Ming: "No, I ate too much rice just now, a little sleepy."
Vivian: It turns out the food was too salty.
The little girl hummed softly and lay on the bed, her head resting on Wei Ming's arm: "I'm also a little sleepy."
You are not sleepy, you are forcing me to commit a crime!
Wei Ming sat up directly from the bed: "Suddenly not sleepy. Vivian, let's chat for a while. Tell me about your school. Do many male students read manga? Are there any female students who read manga..."
The two chatted on Vivian's fragrant and soft bed until the sun was about to set. Wei Ming's sense of crisis became heavier and heavier, worried about being blocked at the door by her mother and unable to argue.
So the wind is tight, pull it.
"Vivian, it's getting late, I have to prepare for tomorrow's flight. Let's meet again in the world." Wei Ming bowed to Vivian Chow.
Vivian Chow doesn't follow the rules of the world and hugged Wei Ming directly, her little face buried in his chest: "Must meet again, meet again quickly~"
This time Wei Ming's hands finally landed on Vivian's slightly curly hair. He moved gently and his voice was gentle: "Okay, meet again quickly."
If "Seven Days of Misunderstanding" is released, he will have another reason to come to Hong Kong.
Today Wei Ming returned to the dormitory of Changcheng to rest, and the four-person group that came was gathered again.
He also used the dormitory phone to call Aunt Xia Meng to care about the progress of "Seven Days of Misunderstanding."
And Xia Meng also congratulated again, "Heroes Born from Youth" Hong Kong box office officially exceeded 10 million, which is the third movie to achieve this achievement.
In addition, the Japanese copyright of this movie also sold for 5 million Hong Kong dollars. Qingniao made a lot of money this time.
Hong Kong movies are about to enter the golden age. Making movies is still profitable. Although a song can also earn millions, the kind of "Moonlight Shadow" that catches up with the wind belongs to a special situation, and not every English song Wei Ming likes can be popular in another time or even with another singer.
Many so-called European and American divine songs that top the Billboard charts, Wei Ming actually has no emotional fluctuations when listening to them. There are only a few musical works that can truly be eaten globally and appreciated by both East and West.
So movies can also be engaged in. Let's see the effect of investing in "Seven Days of Misunderstanding" this time. If it is good, we can reach long-term cooperation with Qingniao in the future.
Or simply set up a company in Hong Kong and let the old ghost hold it on his behalf.
Kai Tak Airport, Wei Ming, Biaozi, A-Long, and Wu Jing have arrived. Everyone is carrying big bags and small bags, wishing everyone was a six-armed Nezha. Everyone's red envelopes have been spent.
They waited for a while and saw Wei Lingling and Miss Li Zhi coming over with a suitcase each.
The two are simply a beautiful landscape, attracting the eyes of most men at the airport.
Miss Li Zhi has evolved into a short-haired style, and the clothes on her body are also specially matched.
This doesn't look like something she could match with her aesthetics. Obviously, this is Aunt Lingling's handwriting.
Wei Lingling said to Wei Ming: "I can't bear to hide Miss Li Zhi at home to do housework like this."
Miss Li Zhi immediately stated: "Aunt Lingling, don't worry, I will improve myself as soon as possible."
Wei Ming asked: "Then are you taking her back to the mainland this time?"
Wei Lingling: "Have to take her. She is from Shanghai and can be considered a local snake, which can save some trouble."
Miss Li Zhi smiled: "I also want to take the opportunity to go back and see my grandmother."
"Senior Brother!"
"Little Li?"
As they were talking, Wu Jing and Biaozi suddenly looked at the airport entrance...
