Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 1188 The Special Waiter
"What's the matter? Seeing that you are always absent-minded, what are you thinking?"

When I was having dinner with Brigitte Lin at night, Lin Daoqiu kept thinking about the name of the new play, so he would inevitably get distracted.

"I'm sorry, I decided on the director of the new play today, but Mai Jia asked me what name I want to name, which made me have a hard time."

Originally, Lin Daoqiu planned to use the name "Miracle", but it seems that the plot does not match the name at all.

At the end of the play "Miracle", those celebrities in the upper class of Xiangjiang, after Jackie Chan and the others finished talking about the old woman selling flowers, everyone was moved, so there was a scene where the celebrities gathered.

But this new drama from the Performing Arts Association doesn't have this part at all. If the name "Miracle" is used, it has nothing to do with this drama at all.

Only after Lin Qingxia heard this did she realize that Lin Daoqiu was actually worried about this matter.

"I thought it was something. You have made so many movies. As long as you calm down and think about it carefully, you will definitely be able to come up with a suitable name."

Lin Daoqiu thought so too, but now he really can't think of a suitable name.

Just when Lin Daoqiu and Brigitte Lin were discussing this matter, they suddenly met an acquaintance.

"Two, this is the steak you ordered."

The waiter brought the steak to Lin Daoqiu and Lin Qingxia. Lin Daoqiu turned his head and found that the waiter was Liang Jiahui.

Did Liang Jiahui notice who was sitting at this table at the beginning? After he put down the steak, he realized that Lin Daoqiu and Brigitte Lin were eating.

Last year's best actor at the Academy Awards actually worked as a waiter in a restaurant, which is simply unbelievable.

"Lin... Mr. Lin, Miss Lin, good evening."

Liang Jiahui didn't expect to meet Lin Daoqiu and the others here, his smile looked a little embarrassed.

Lin Daoqiu originally thought that Liang Jiahui should go to set up a street stall, but he didn't expect him to work as a waiter in a western restaurant.

"Liang... Mr. Liang, why are you here?"

Lin Qingxia didn't know about Liang Jiahui's ban, she was shocked to see him working as a waiter here.

After all, Leung Ka Fai was the Best Actor at last year's Hong Kong Film Awards. It stands to reason that there should be a lot of film appointments. Why didn't he go to film and come here to do these instead?
"I came to help a friend, he was sick, so I covered him for a few days, and I usually... do other jobs."

Leung Ka Fai actually came to help a friend take over this day. He usually goes to set up a street stall, but he didn't expect to meet Lin Daoqiu and Brigitte Lin by such a coincidence today.

"Oh...so that's the case."

Although Brigitte Lin said this, she was actually quite embarrassed, and she was too embarrassed to ask the other party what happened.

"Jiahui, find me in my office tomorrow morning, I have something to talk to you."

Lin Daoqiu is not in a hurry to solve the matter now, a year has passed in a blink of an eye, and now there is a good opportunity for Liang Jiahui to come back.

After all, he is being banned by Baodao, no one dares to ask him to act.

"Oh... yes... yes Mr. Lin, I will be there on time."

Liang Jiahui lowered his head, looking a little depressed, but Lin Daoqiu knew everything, so Liang Jiahui didn't say much to the other party.

After Liang Jiahui left, Brigitte Lin looked at Lin Daoqiu in surprise and asked him.

"Mr. Liang won the best actor award last year, why did he become a waiter in a western restaurant? He must have encountered a difficult problem, I think we should help him."

Lin Daoqiu felt that Liang Jiahui acted very well in both "Listening to the Government Behind the Curtain" and "Burning the Old Summer Palace", and he would not be so young.

After Brigitte Lin finished speaking, Lin Daoqiu did not speak in a hurry, but slowly cut the steak.

After waiting for a while, he tasted the steak before slowly saying.

"Because "Listen to the Government" and "Burning the Old Summer Palace" were filmed in the mainland, so he was blocked by Baodao after filming. No one in Xiangjiang dared to ask him to film, and the result became what he is now."

Lin Qingxia didn't expect that it was because of this relationship, she could only shake her head repeatedly after listening to Lin Daoqiu's explanation.

After all, she didn't know where to start with this kind of thing. She could only say that it was a tragedy of an era.

…………

At eight o'clock the next morning, Liang Jiahui arrived at New Oriental early to wait for Lin Daoqiu.

But because Lin Daoqiu hadn't arrived yet, he could only stand in the lobby and wait.

It was almost nine o'clock when Lin Daoqiu brought Fang Jinsheng in through the gate.

Just when he was about to enter the elevator, Lin Daoqiu turned his head and found Liang Jiahui standing in the other corner.

"Go and take him to my office."

Lin Daoqiu did not expect Liang Jiahui to come so early. After he got into the elevator, he asked Fang Jinsheng to take him to his office.

Fang Jinsheng didn't expect Liang Jiahui to come so early, he walked over and patted him on the shoulder.

Liang Jiahui was startled, he turned his head and found that it was Fang Jinsheng, Lin Daoqiu's assistant.

"Brother Sheng, good morning."

"Why are you here so early? Mr. Lin just entered the elevator, let's go up."

Liang Jiahui didn't see Lin Daoqiu just now, if Fang Jinsheng hadn't called him, he might have to wait here.

In the elevator, Liang Jiahui seemed to be very calm, but in fact, it was absolutely impossible for him to say that he was not nervous.

When he was filming "Listen to the Government Behind the Curtain" and "Burning the Old Summer Palace", he had no interest in filming.

Originally he was a student of the TVB training class, but because the contract was too long and the salary was too low, Leung Ka Fai felt that he had no future so he didn't renew the contract.

But after entering the film industry, Liang Jiahui began to have a strong interest in acting after he finished "Listening to the Government" and "Burning the Old Summer Palace".

If it weren't for this incident, I believe Liang Jiahui's star journey would be very smooth.

Not long after Lin Daoqiu entered the office and sat down, Fang Jinsheng brought Liang Jiahui in from the outside.

"Mr. Liang, please sit down."

Lin Daoqiu pointed to the chair opposite him, and then Liang Jiahui sat down in a proper manner.

"I didn't expect that almost a year has passed in a blink of an eye. Seeing that the third Academy Awards will be held soon, do you think it is a kind of fate to meet you at this time?"

Last year at the Academy Awards, Leung Ka Fai shined so brightly that he was able to win the Best Actor Award at the Academy Awards for the first time. He himself felt incredible.

Liang Jiahui didn't know what fate Lin Daoqiu was talking about, but his current situation was already like this, and it wouldn't be too bad if it was bad.

"I'm going to Baodao to film this time, and I plan to bring you along."

As soon as Lin Daoqiu said this, Liang Jiahui was in a daze. He was an actor banned by Baodao, wouldn't it affect him if Lin Daoqiu brought him there?
