Not long after, Zhang Jizhong's assistant rushed over with the contract. Under Zhang Jizhong's gaze, he respectfully handed the contract to Lin Lei.
Lin Lei roughly looked through it and found that there were no problems. He took the pen that the assistant handed over enthusiastically and decisively signed his name on it.
A man's word was a promise. Since he had already agreed, there was no reason for him to go back on his word now.
Seeing Lin Lei sign, Zhang Jizhong's heart was finally relieved.
Suddenly feeling hungry, Zhang Jizhong subconsciously raised his wrist to look at his watch and realized that it was noon. He turned his gaze to his assistant.
The assistant understood and quickly said,"The hotel's private room has been booked. You can go over at any time."”
Zhang Jizhong nodded his head in satisfaction. He quickly said respectfully to Mr. Jin Yong,""Since you've graced us with your presence, why don't we have a meal together?”
Although he really hoped that the old man would agree to his invitation, Zhang Jizhong knew very well that the old man had never liked socializing, so he most likely would not agree to his invitation.
To Zhang Jizhong's surprise, Jin Yong did not hesitate at all and immediately agreed." Alright."”
Zhang Jizhong couldn't help but be delighted. Even the rest of the crew were equally surprised. They hurriedly welcomed the old man to the hotel room.
No one paid any attention to Lin Lei. After all, he was just a newcomer. He was not qualified to attend such a banquet.
Not to mention Lin Lei, even Liu Yifei did not have the qualifications. Although she was already a little famous, she had only been in the industry for a short time and was still young. Her status in the entertainment industry was not high.
Of course, Lin Lei knew this in his heart. He didn't expect to have a share of this banquet. He just waited for the staff to arrange for him to leave later. Before that, he would take a few more glances at his idol.
Jin Yong was escorted out by the crew. When he reached Lin Lei, the old man suddenly stopped and went straight to him. He patted Lin Lei's shoulder warmly and said with a smile,"Little brother, do you have an appointment at noon? If you don't have an appointment, why don't you come with us?”
Lin Lei was stunned. He had never thought that a big shot like Jin Yong would specially come over to invite him. For a moment, he actually forgot to respond.
The old man wasn't annoyed. He just waited with a smile on his face.
Everyone present was stunned. Just like Lin Lei, they did not expect a big shot like Jin Yong to specially invite an unknown newcomer actor.
Zhang Jizhong reacted the fastest and quickly came out to smooth things over. He smiled and waved at the important people around him, including Liu Yifei and her manager." After a busy morning, everyone should be hungry. The private room is quite big and there are many seats. Why don't we go together? It's not a waste and it's lively."”
Lin Lei finally reacted and quickly nodded in agreement.
Of course, Lin Lei wouldn't reject Mr. Jin Yong's special invitation. On the contrary, he was flattered and fearful.
Lin Lei still had a lot of respect for the old man who had created so many great martial arts works.
Moreover, Zhang Jizhong had invited Liu Yifei to join him. Lin Lei would naturally be more willing to eat at the same table as his idol.
"Alright." Seeing that Lin Lei had agreed, Jin Yong nodded in satisfaction and was about to leave.
Seeing this, Zhang Jizhong quickly came over to support the old man. The staff who had booked the private room also took the initiative to run to the front to lead the way. The group of people walked all the way to the private room.
On the way, Zhang Jizhong seemed to be afraid of neglecting the old man, so he kept looking for topics to talk about. The old man also responded politely. Occasionally, the two of them would even look at each other and smile, as if they were having a good chat.
As for the others, other than the person who led the way to the private room, they all deliberately slowed down and quietly followed behind the two big shots. It seemed to be an established rule, even Liu Yifei did the same.
Of course, Lin Lei wouldn't walk too fast to get close to the two big shots. He didn't need to curry favor with the two big shots at all. Instead, he was more interested in Liu Yifei. He deliberately walked beside her and would turn his head to peek at her from time to time.
Liu Yifei had already changed out of her snow-white Xiao Longnu costume into a light green dress. This dress was the kind that accentuated her figure, making her beautiful figure sink in. Her makeup had also changed, and it was thicker than before. The color of her eyeshadow and lipstick was just right, making Liu Yifei more charming. It was completely different from before. However, she had an otherworldly fairy aura. This was still the same as always, as if he was born with it.
It was simply too beautiful.
Lin Lei couldn't help but feel emotional. His gaze towards Liu Yifei couldn't help but become even more passionate.
Liu Yifei had already noticed Lin Lei's peeking, but she did not stop him. Instead, she could not help but feel shy and blush. Fortunately, she was more pretentious this time, so it was not obvious if one did not look carefully. However, her panicked expression, her calm steps, and her almost smooth walking made Lin Lei happy. He felt that his idol was not quite the same as he had imagined. He seemed to be cuter.
In fact, the private room was not far away. The group arrived at their destination very quickly. After they were served, the food and wine were served very quickly. Everyone was a little hungry, so they ate in silence.
As everyone drank and ate, they chatted casually. Soon, they were drunk and their ears were hot. As for the old mister Jin Yong, who had always been cold and silent, he could not help but talk more.
" By the way, I plan to revise the novel 'The Condor Heroes' recently." As he spoke, the old man seemed to be very interested in Lin Lei. He turned his gaze to him and asked with a smile," What do you think of my novel?"”
To be able to portray Yang Guo so vividly, Jin Yong was really curious about Lin Lei's understanding of this novel.
Lin Lei was taken aback. He had not expected to be called out by the old man. He could not help but panic. He wanted to say a few polite words to brush it off, but he noticed that Liu Yifei was looking at him. He had a little drink, and his head was getting hot. He suddenly remembered that the century version had not been released yet. The old man should be referring to this version. He immediately thought of the difference between the two versions. He mustered up his courage and began to speak slowly.
"As far as I know, the most widely circulated version of your novel is the trilogy version. However, I feel that this version of Xiao Longnu is too cold and has too little interaction with Yang Guo. I feel that it lacks a bit of fireworks and is not very realistic.”
The few people present broke out in cold sweat.
Wasn't Lin Lei too bold? He actually dared to question the old master's work in public. What if he angered the old master and took his anger out on them?
Zhang Jizhong was even more frightened. Just as he was about to open his mouth to smooth things over, he saw Jin Yong slam the table and shout,"That's right, I was thinking the same thing too. I didn't expect little brother to have the same opinion as me!”
Lin Lei laughed awkwardly. How could it be different? I'm talking about the version that you're going to change in the future.
After saying that, Jin Yong actually stood up directly and staggered to Lin Lei with a wine glass in his hand. He said loudly,"Since little brother and I hit it off so well, why don't we just become sworn brothers and call each other brothers in the future?”
It was obvious that Mr. Jin was drunk. Otherwise, he wouldn't have lost his composure.
Everyone was frightened when they saw this. Zhang Jizhong even opened his mouth to stop them.
"Old sir, you mustn't!"
Lin Lei was not completely drunk yet, so he was still clear-headed. Of course, he also felt that it was not appropriate. He quickly shook his head and refused, his tone terrified." Old Sir, you're killing me!"”
"What nonsense are you talking about? This old man is not a jinx, so why would I kill you?”Jin Yong angrily rebuked, his tone clearly drunk.
Lin Lei was so shocked that he broke out in a cold sweat. The others were also terrified. Just as they were at a loss, Lin Lei suddenly had an idea and quickly said,"Actually, becoming sworn brothers is just a formality. Old mister, you don't have to be so stubborn about it. Since old mister thinks highly of this junior, how about this junior be bold enough to be old mister's friend regardless of age? I'll take the liberty to call you big brother.”
Jin Yong thought about it for a while and felt that this was fine, so he nodded and agreed." That's fine. Then I'll call you Little Brother in the future."”
"Sure, sure." Lin Lei let out a long breath and quickly agreed.
