Chapter 105 Secretly Obsessed

In the high-end residential complex outside the south gate of Chaoyang Park, Jiang Heng stood in front of the living room window of a large flat of more than 300 square meters, looking at the scenery outside.

A banquet sent by the hotel had been set on the kitchen table. Thinking of the dumplings Tang Yan mentioned, Jiang Heng waited for a while and even went downstairs to buy a bottle of vinegar.

"Mr. Jiang, there is a Miss Tang outside the community gate. She said she has an appointment with you?"

"Well, let her in!"

After hanging up the phone with the property management, Tang Yan came in more than ten minutes later.

"Director Jiang, Happy New Year. My mother heard that you were here alone, so she asked me to bring some dumplings over!" After saying that, he raised the food box in his hand.

"Thank you so much for making such a fuss during the New Year. Come in and warm up for a while!"

"No, no, I'll go back now!"

Jiang Heng smiled bitterly, "I was hoping you could eat with me!"

"Ah!" Tang Yan was stunned. After hearing this, he didn't know whether to leave or stay.

After a few seconds of hesitation, he asked, "Have you always been alone during the New Year?"

"Yup!"

"What does that feel like!" He said this while already entering the door.

Jiang Heng smiled and said, "Sometimes I may feel a little lonely, but I will get used to it after a while!"

"Wow, living alone in such a big house, anyone would be lonely, right?"

After all, she is a girl, and at first she felt it was inappropriate to come in. But when she walked in, she was involuntarily attracted by the layout and decoration of the house, and she took a curious look around.

When I went to the kitchen and saw a sumptuous meal, I asked curiously, "Who helped you cook it?"

"We ordered it at the hotel. Let's eat together?"

"Ah, isn't it good?"

"It's okay, I can't finish it anyway!"

"That's such a waste!" Tang Yan hesitated for a few seconds, but still took off his coat and sat down.

"Since you're going to drive later, I won't give you any wine, get your own drink!"

"Oh!" Tang Yan finally couldn't resist the temptation of delicious food, picked up the chopsticks and devoured it.

“Do you spend your days like this every year?”

"more or less!"

“That’s too lonely!”

"There's nothing we can do. Everyone has their own destiny!"

"What about your mother? Doesn't she miss you? Don't you miss her?"

Jiang Heng smiled bitterly. He was nothing in his previous life. His mother ignored him after she remarried and was too lazy to answer his phone calls.

In this life, he has achieved success and his mother has become much more enthusiastic, but Jiang Heng is too lazy to contact her. He just transfers some money to her during the Chinese New Year to show his filial piety, but there is no talk of feelings between them.

Jiang Heng said a few simple and obscure words, and Tang Yan could understand the general idea. He then said: "I suddenly feel so happy. I have a father and a mother who love me so much!"

Jiang Hengxin said, it is well known that you live a happy life.

The only daughter in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai is so spoiled!
While the two were eating, there were fireworks outside.

However, the capital city had issued a ban on fireworks as early as 93.

But there are too many capable people in the city, how can it be completely contained?

Especially the owners of high-end residential areas, they don’t care about it at all and just play for fun.

Tang Yan put down his chopsticks and walked to the French window to watch the fireworks show outside. He couldn't help but exclaim, "It's so beautiful!"

Jiang Heng followed and asked, "Want to go and release it?"

"May I?"

"Go downstairs!"

The two of them put on their clothes and went to the underground garage. When they drove out of the community, they saw a vendor selling fireworks. Jiang Heng bought the largest fireworks, placed them on the open space and asked Tang Yan to light them.

"Oh, I don't dare!"

"Then let me do it!"

After that, he lit it with cigarettes, and beautiful fireworks shot straight into the sky, bursting into colorful and gorgeous patterns!
"It's so beautiful!" Tang Yan looked up and exclaimed. However, when the fireworks faded and the cold wind blew, the little girl returned to reality, "I should go back. Mom and Dad have been waiting for so long that they must be getting anxious!"

"Let me take you there. Leave your car here and come pick it up tomorrow!"

Tang Yan nodded and got into Jiang Heng's BMW 728. Maybe because of the cold wind, he felt a little hot when the warm wind blew after getting in the car.

He leaned dejectedly on the passenger seat, looking at the night view outside the window.

Jiang Heng turned on the car CD and played "Secretly Obsessed" by Liu Dehua.

"Can you please not be like this? If you keep looking at me, you will realize that I am simply too lonely to bear it... Actually, I am fascinated every time I see you, but we each have our own roles, even if we are more than friends in a lonely dream..."

"Is this Huazai's song?"

"Ok!"

“It sounds so good!”

Jiang Heng smiled and continued to drive calmly, quickly sending Tang Yan to the downstairs of her apartment building.

“Thank you for the dumplings today!”

"I also want to thank you for treating me to a nice dinner and fireworks!"

"Well, let's go upstairs!"

"Happy New Year!"

"Happy New Year!"

Tang Yan wanted to ask if he could have dinner with you in the future, but he didn't have the courage to do so and fled upstairs.

After entering the door, Tang's father asked, "Why did you take so long?"

"You don't know, even though he's rich, he lives a pretty miserable life!"

"How pitiful is he?" Tang's mother came over and asked curiously.

Tang Yan said as he took off his clothes and shoes, "The place he lives in is about 200 to 300 square meters, and he lives there alone. He even ordered the New Year's Eve dinner from the hotel!"

"Oh my, when all the lights are on and families are reunited, it's really lonely just to think about it!"

"Yes, compared to him, I feel so lucky to have a loving father and mother!"

After Tang Yan said this, he hugged his father and mother coquettishly.

Tang's father smiled and said, "So, sometimes you don't have to envy others for having less money. It's best for the family to be together!"

Tang Yan smiled and said, "It would be even better if the family was together and there was still a lot of money!"

"You little money addict!"

……

After two days of holiday, the crew of "Splitting the Mountain to Save Mother" continued filming, and all scenes were completed just after the Lantern Festival.

As for the post-production of the film, Jiang Heng is already familiar with it.

About one-tenth of the special effects shots in the film were still completed by Weta Digital.

He also handed over a small number of special effects shots to his own Good Time Special Effects Company, as well as two small companies in the United States and Australia.

The special effects companies from Japan and South Korea that had previously cooperated also received some of the profits.

The special effects shots that are outsourced account for about 30% of the total number of special effects shots.

The rest was naturally done by his "super microcomputer".

This time, about 2500 million US dollars in special effects costs can be saved, which is almost million RMB.

After the post-production arrangements were completed, Jiang Heng urgently began preparations for "The Matrix 2", which was scheduled to start filming in mid-March and be released during the Lunar New Year holiday at the end of the year.

In Hong Kong, Wu Yizu, who received the call, was excited and said hurriedly: "Director Jiang, don't worry, the schedule is reserved, and I will definitely join the crew when the time comes!"

It’s a bit embarrassing to talk about his current development situation.

In terms of fame and box office, he is a top-tier superstar, but his role is limited to Jiang Heng's films.

It would be difficult to guarantee box office success if he starred in other Hong Kong films.

After all, all the film and television resources in Hong Kong combined cannot compare with Jiang Heng’s projects.

I want to go to Hollywood, but I don’t have any resources, so I can only muddle along like this for now.
