Zhao Xingyu returned to 2002, at the beginning of the new century, opportunities and waves rushed towards him. He held a lot of opportunities; he did not miss out on entertainment and business, and he could not lack industrial technology; he held the lifeline of the world economy; he was reborn, and he worked hard to stir up the world with his own strength. When he looked back, he found that he was already standing at the peak. (High definition, no codes, no abuse, IQ online, stable updates, rest assured to enter the pit)
In the early spring of 2002, the season when all things were revived, the willows on both sides of the road had sprouted buds, full of the breath of life. The delicate and beautiful winter jasper had spat out buds, waiting for the time to bloom.
In Shanghai, in a 120-square-meter house, Zhao Xingyu slowly opened his eyes and looked at the scene in front of him in disbelief!
Where was this place? His brain was still in a state of stagnation where time and space were intertwined and information processing was incomplete. The things in front of him were both familiar and strange.
It was familiar because he had lived in this house for nearly ten years. It was unfamiliar because the house in front of him should have been sold for nearly twenty years to pay off his debts. Now that he saw it again, it was really unbelievable.
Zhao Xingyu rubbed his eyes, trying to confirm if what he saw was real. The scene that greeted his eyes remained unchanged.
"No way! It was just a little wine! Are you still dreaming?" Zhao Xingyu was in disbelief. Then, he pinched his thigh hard and pain came.
He looked at his own body and felt his clear and powerful heartbeat. He was much healthier than the greasy middle-aged man who had three high points. He was full of youth. His abdominal muscles were six packs and his facial features were distinct. This was what he had when he was young.
Later on, as he grew older and had to work and socialize, his waist was bent by life. His abdominal muscles gradually became one, and his figure began to become fat and greasy.
He walked to the foot of the bed where there was a mirror. A head of black hair was reflected in front of him. His clean and fair face revealed a well-defined and cold handsomeness. He had sword-like eyebrows and star-like eyes. His high nose bridge could be said to be bright and beautiful. He was 1.78 meters tall and had a straight figure.
"Is it true? What was this? I've returned to my old home? He was reborn! F * ck! How can I get such a good thing?" Zhao Xingyu was a little confused. As a regular customer of Qidian, how could he not know what this meant? A lot of opportunities and countless wealth.
He had wasted half his life. After graduating from university, he had been wandering around in various large production teams. From the beginning of the scene, to the action design director, to the assistant director, he had done everything. It could be said that he had worked his way up step by step.
In the end, he did not get married. There were many reasons for that. Besides, he was in the entertainment industry and faced too many temptations. He could only talk about marriage. The only thing he wanted was to film a successful film and make a comeback! He would have all the fame and fortune! That's right, he was such a vulgar person.
It was not until 2023, before he was reborn, that he finally had the chance to get his first guide tube, and it was his own guide tube!
After a friend's introduction, a big investor had offered him the opportunity to film a TV series. When he first heard the news, he could not suppress his excitement. He was already in his forties, and he finally had this opportunity! To him, it was like a hungry tiger entering a sheep pen!
"I've waited for three years for an opportunity! I want to fight not to prove that I'm amazing, but to tell others that I must get back what I've lost!"
The lines in 'A Hero's Colors' were also referring to him! Due to some irresistible reasons, he had no choice but to transfer from the acting major to the directing major in university. The hardships he had gone through were not something that outsiders could tell him. He had held back his anger and gritted his teeth for 20 years. Finally, this day had arrived!
Because he was too excited, he called his former friends out for a drink in the middle of the night. The depression in his chest was finally completely released. However, he was drunk for a moment. In the end, when he opened his eyes, he was back to his student days?
What year is it now? Zhao Xingyu looked at the furnishings in front of him, the clock on the wall, the posters of Qiu Shuzhen, Zhou Huimin, and other Xiangjiang celebrities, and the computer with a slickback on the desk next to the entrance. His mind could not help but ripple as he recalled the distant memories of his student days.
"Year three? I failed my first mock exam after I entered school. Because I didn't study hard during the winter vacation, I was attracted by online games. I played until the night before the first mock exam, and I fell asleep during the exam. As a result, my parents were called back for moral education."
Zhao Xingyu's mind kept spinning. Year three should be in 2002, right? Because his family had not been peaceful this year, a major incident had happened, causing his family conditions to plummet. This year was also the year of his college entrance examination, so he had a deep impression of it.
Just as he was recalling, a voice came and woke him up.
"Little Yu, Little Yu!" A slightly anxious mezzo-soprano voice came from the living room. Zhao Xingyu was too familiar with this voice. It was his mother, Li Yuting.
In Zhao Xingyu's dazed eyes, the wooden doorknob turned and a tall figure appeared. It was his mother.
Li Yuting was only forty years old now. Time seemed to have never left any traces on her. She had a beautiful face, smooth and white. Because she had studied music since she was young, she had a gentle temperament.
"Alright, alright. It's just that you didn't do well. Just do your best next time. There are still a few months before your college entrance examination. Don't worry." Li Yuting saw that her son had already gotten up, and her eyes were a little dull. She thought that he was still thinking about the failure of the mock exam. She could not help but go forward and hug him to comfort him.
Zhao Xingyu understood that his mother had high expectations for him. He had been smart since he was young, which led to him going to school earlier. In his third year of high school, he was only seventeen years old, while most of the people around him were eighteen years old. It was because of this year that he became obsessed with online games, and his academic performance plummeted.
Fortunately, he had been learning music from his mother since he was young, and because of the influence of Shaolin Temple, he had learned boxing and kung fu for a few years. He had some specialties. What was even more ridiculous was that he had coincidentally taken the art exam before the new year and was actually selected. He had scored third in the art exam.
It was normal for him to be able to get in. His family had good genes, and he was tall and well-defined. Although he was not as handsome as Wu Yanzu or Bai Gu, Yan Yikuan was still comparable.
Originally, with his results, he would have no problem getting into Fudan University. However, because of online games, his results plummeted. When it came to the college entrance examination, he failed without any surprise. However, by accident, he got into the Shanghai Theater Academy.
He became the famous Guo Jingfei, Hu Ge's junior brother, and was in the same batch as Lei Jiayin, Du Ruoxi, and Sun Yizhou.
Zhao Xingyu had mixed feelings when he thought of the events in his previous life.
"Mom, I miss you!" Looking at his mother's figure, his eyes were wet with tears.
The first half of Li Yuting's life was smooth sailing, but the latter half of her life was hard work. She had a family background, and because she fell in love with her father in university, she finally got married. However, because her father's family background was average, her grandmother and grandfather did not agree to this marriage. Because of this, her mother even quarreled with her family for a while. It was only when she was born that things got better, and the conflict with her family eased a lot.
His father, Zhao Jianguo, had been a substitute teacher in high school. However, things didn't go as he wished. Because of the coming wave of layoffs, he lost his job. This also prompted him to decide to go into business. A few years ago, because of the big wave, he made a lot of money. It was quite a good start.
However, in 2002, he was tricked by a boss from Shen Zhen to set up a factory together and invested most of his money. Who knew that the person was a swindler? He ran away with the money, causing his family to fall to the bottom of the valley and raising a lot of foreign debts.
The whole family relied on her mother's salary as a music teacher to survive. Sometimes, she even needed her grandparents to help out. In order to supplement the family, her mother often taught interest classes and was so busy that her feet did not touch the ground.
Her mother had also developed a disease because of her long hours of hard work. Whenever it rained on a cloudy day, she would cough non-stop. Half of her long hair was white when she was less than 50 years old.
Looking at his tall mother, Zhao Xingyu thought about the past.
"Silly child, what's there to think about? Didn't I just bring you back from school?" Li Yuting looked at her son with an indescribable strangeness. He seemed to have grown up a lot and became more sensible, but Li Yuting didn't think too much about it.
"Alright, come down quickly and wash your face. It's almost time to eat." Li Yuting instructed and walked towards the living room.
Zhao Xingyu nodded and looked at his mother's departing figure. A smile hung on his lips. The sunlight shone on his face, making him look exceptionally warm.
