After only a week off, Yang Rui began to feel empty.

There are too few things to play in this era. He has watched classic movies and TV series. With the vision that he is accustomed to watching future blockbusters, he looks at these things now, even if the box office hit "Independence Day" and "Man in Black" ", it's not a great thing.

It makes no sense to buy a game console. I am used to playing advanced games of later generations. The current PS1...the picture is so beautiful that he dare not look at it.

He gave the deposit to Thomas to invest in stocks. Thomas fancyed the IT industry and technology stocks. The choice was very accurate, so he didn't need to worry about it.

In the end, his only pleasure is to eat.

In the previous life, Yang Rui could cook, and his parents had to go early, so he had to rely on himself; Jerry could also, mainly western food.Now after he was reborn, he has combined Chinese and Western, but he is far from professional, and the food he cooks is relatively poor, which is called dark cuisine.

Therefore, Yang Rui spends most of his time eating out, and the "Aftertaste Snack Bar" where he worked before has become his first choice.The food is delicious and the price is reasonable. This shop has a lot of repeat customers.

"Brother Yang, are you here?" The waiter Xiao Xiao greeted Yang Rui excitedly when he saw Yang Rui.The two have a good relationship. They have worked together before, and Yang Rui chats with her the most in the store.

"Hi, long time no see."

"There is no seat, don't worry, I'll call the boss." Xiao Xiao smiled and said: "The boss has ordered you to notify him when you come again."

"Uh……"

Ten minutes later, a short old man in his forties came to the shop, his hair was sparsely combed to one side, and he was the owner of the snack bar.

He didn't speak easily. He spoke in Cantonese. He didn't take Yang Rui seriously before. This time he introduced himself excitedly and his name was Li Qi.

Li Qi said: "You become the Knicks coach. I am so proud of you. Our Chinese finally became a star."

"I worked here before, thank you for taking care of it." Yang Rui smiled.

"I'm embarrassed if you say that. I knew you were so good. I must have processed money for you at that time." Li Qi smiled.

After chatting for a while, a guest finally left. Li Qi gave Yang Rui a membership card, which would offer a 20% discount for future visits and reserve seats.

Yang Rui sat by the window and ordered the "black sesame paste", an ancestral flavor in the store.

This special snack is said to be energizing and aphrodisiac, tastes good, sweet and delicious.It's a pity that this black sesame paste sells a little bit differently. It's thicker than a pot of sugar water that poisoned Qi's thirteen mouths with a pound of arsenic, so besides Yang Rui, it seemed that no one was in favor.

He was waiting for the sesame paste to cool down, and a girl smelt it over."Excuse me, what is this?"

"Black sesame paste." Yang Rui replied in Chinese, not knowing what it was called in English.

He looked up and was stunned.

This is a girl in her early ten years old. She is not tall, with dark blonde hair, a popular braided head on both sides, green eyes and pupils, a little buck teeth, high cheekbones, and a sharp cheekbone, with a sharp chin and a typical awl face. .

This face is very young, not a beauty, but Yang Rui is very excited because her name is Scarlett Johansson.

After rebirth, Yang Rui especially hopes to meet a few celebrities in the entertainment industry, but unfortunately, he was a little bit lucky. He didn't see one before, and finally ran into one today.

Scarlett smiled and asked in English: "I've been to this store several times. I haven't seen this before. How does it taste?"

"This is new, it's a bit hot...so I haven't moved...you can taste it first, and order it if you like." Yang Rui squatted in English.

He despised himself a little bit in his heart. Now Scarlett is less than thirteen years old and not a big star. He is not nervous when facing a group of big NBA celebrities, but he has a short tongue in front of a little girl, which is embarrassing.

Probably this man’s play is too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. He seems to have seen the young "black widow", who can take out a gun at any time to shoot randomly, jump up and clamp people in his legs... In the future, countless fans will fall in love with her good "cheating" Up her.

Scarlett took a small spoon, tasted two, and smiled with two rows of white teeth."It tastes so good, I want to order this. That... can I sit with you?"

There are a lot of guests at the moment, and you have to put together tables no matter where you sit.

"Of course, Miss Johnson." Yang Rui smiled and stood up to help her move her chair, feeling that she could take this opportunity to meet celebrity friends.

"Do you know me?" Scarlett was taken aback.

"I've watched "Home Alone 3" and you played that little devil's sister." Yang Rui responded.

"Ah? You can remember my name in that kind of little role? You are in the entertainment industry? Chinese actor? I don't remember meeting you." Scarlett asked several questions in one breath.

"I like movies. I'm not a person in the entertainment industry. Although you played a supporting role, I just remembered it, maybe it's an eyeball, so I was surprised to see you just now."

"Haha, don't you think I'm very attractive?" Scarlett smiled and showed her back teeth.

The goddess is a little girl now, but Yang Rui doesn't hate it at all."I think you will become famous in the future, even though "Home Alone 3" is a bad movie."

His prediction is absolutely accurate, and everyone would like to listen to it.

Scarlett laughed a few times and sighed again."It's a pity that not everyone likes me. I failed in the audition for "Nature Couple" before. Do you know this movie?"

Yang Rui thought for a while and nodded: "Is it a movie adapted from "Two Little Lots"? There was a version before, and I heard that I want to make a new one."

"Yes, that's the one... It seems you really like movies." Scarlett said in surprise.She just found a place to sit, but she didn't expect someone to recognize her and still chat.

"You didn't get a role, it must have nothing to do with acting. The protagonist of the script is a child? You look too big. If I were a director, I would definitely find a kid, even if the acting is worse than yours."

"You're not a certain member of the crew. You came here to wait for me on purpose? Wait, the interview is in Los Angeles." Scarlett held his chin in her right hand and stared at him blankly.

This is the reason why she was not selected. Her face does not look big, but her height is already 1.5 meters. More importantly, her breasts already have a shape. She is one of the girls who developed early. Acting as a little girl?Unless you grew up eating April fat.

"Aside from the movie, we must meet for the first time." Yang Rui said, tasting the sesame paste.

Scarlett looked at him: "But I see you very familiar, you must have seen it somewhere. What do you do? Have you been on TV?"

"I'm Jerry Young, assistant coach of the New York Knicks. You can call me Jerry."

"Ah, I see. I watched your news interview. You brought a camera to the party and took a lot of things." Scarlett opened her mouth in surprise.

"Well, that's me." Yang Rui smiled.

"You are an interesting person."

Soon, another black sesame paste came up, and Scarlett ordered other desserts, which Yang Rui thought was very interesting.

With a vision for the future, Yang Rui easily gained Scarlett Johansson's favor.

He dare to assert that the unreleased "Titanic" is a classic movie, and he firmly believes that magic and sci-fi movies are the future development trends and will definitely become the main box office.

At this time, "Harry Potter" had just published its first novel. Like "The Lord of the Rings", the first movie was only released in 2001. If he had money, he would want to buy a share of the copyright of these films.For him, the entertainment industry has unlimited business opportunities. As long as he invests, it is difficult not to make a fortune.

Scarlett was a famous literary girl in the early stage. Yang Rui talked to her about acting and movies, and she became a friend in a while.After lunch, he got Scarlett's phone number, which was not regarded as a strange bun.

Before leaving, Scarlett asked: "I want to give my brother a gift. He is a fan of Alan Houston. When the season starts, can you help me get his signature jersey?"

"Of course." Yang Rui agreed without thinking.

Scarlett was taken aback, and two rows of white teeth were revealed with a smile: "Jerry, why are you so good to me? Isn't it because of me?"

"I am optimistic that you will become a big star and a Hollywood actress, so make a good relationship first. Don't think all day long before you are 13 years old." Yang Rui was amused.

Even if he knew that Scarlett would be a star in the future, he didn't mean that, just wanted to make friends.

In the United States, having a relationship with a minor will be sentenced to severe penalties. In New York, it will have to be sentenced to 20 years...Unless you don’t want to pass it, who would think about it?

Meeting Scarlett, Yang Rui's life became fulfilled, preparing for future investment with money.

He goes to the library to read books every day, eats at the aftertaste snack bar at noon, walks home in the evening, exercises and exercises cooking skills.

To live a new life, he cherishes time more than others and has more life insights.

His work in the previous life was good, or just good, not a passion; he had several girlfriends in his previous life, but none of them were true love, more like acting on the spot; there were many friends in the previous life, and no one could help others, and could not make progress together.

To put it bluntly, his previous life was just an ordinary person, too ordinary, and his life was dull to boring.

Some people say that plain is true, but plain, is it really good?

The Belgian "Old Man" magazine once conducted a national survey on elderly people over 60 years old, entitled "What do you regret?" The survey results are very interesting.

72% of the elderly regretted that they did not work hard enough when they were young, resulting in no success in their careers; 67% of the elderly regretted choosing a career wrongly when they were young; 63% of the elderly regretted insufficient education or improper methods for their children; 58% of the elderly regretted not exercising enough; 56% of the elderly regret not cherishing their partner.

At 60 years old, it is already in the evening sun. Looking back on the past, I can make a more objective and fair judgment of myself.

Before Yang Rui was 60, he realized that his previous life was wrong. Since most of the elderly regretted his unsuccessful career, he should focus on his career, especially when he chose the right career. He did not want to regret in the future. .

He also needs to exercise, ensure his health, and find a partner who loves each other.

As long as these three points are achieved, life will be more perfect.He currently has no children or old parents. He is energetic. If his career is not successful, he will find no excuses!

Not only is Yang Rui's life on track, Thomas has also done a great job on Wall Street, and both of them are enviable successful people among their peers.

Soon after two months, Yang Rui and Scarlett became friends, and there was a special seat by the window in the "Aftertaste Snack Bar".Scarlett lives not far away and likes to talk about movies with Yang Rui.

They usually eat Chinese food, and the black sesame paste for dessert is still only two favorites.

Scarlett's younger brother Hunter also often comes to eat. He has twin siblings with similar facial features. This kid wearing a wig and pretending to be a female can definitely fool many people.

The two forced Hunter to eat the sesame paste, and this guy took a bite. The expression Yang Rui could remember for a lifetime, as if he went to the execution ground.This delicacy tastes a bit heavy for most American cultural concepts.

At the end of August, Scarlett successfully auditioned into the crew of "The Horse Whisperer" and went to make a movie.

Hunter still often went to the snack bar to eat and asked questions for a long time."Jerry, I'm very strange, can you really talk to Scarlett?"

"Don't you often listen to us chatting? Don't you believe that she can become a Hollywood star? I am very accurate." Yang Rui replied.

Hunter was confused. He insisted on following at first because Scarlett said that he knew the Knicks assistant, and he was worried that the other party was a liar or had bad intentions.

As a result, after meeting many times, he found that Yang Rui's eyes were clear, not admiring Scarlett at all, but talking about basketball, movies, Hollywood gossip, and some entertainment.

"Do you still want to be an actor in the future?" Hunter asked.

"No, I'm more interested in being a boss and investing in making movies. To put it bluntly, I want to make money." Yang Rui took a mouthful of fried noodles, showing a look of yearning.

The more money is naturally the better. In the short term, he can't accumulate capital to do big things. Thomas has helped him make a lot of stocks, but it is still too slow.

Hunter asked: "After the training camp starts, you will help me get to Houston to sign, right?"

"Of course, this is a trivial matter. What do you want Houston to write on your clothes? I guess he can't give you clothes, so you'd better prepare one yourself."

"Just write Hunter, one day, you will become an NBA star." Hunter said seriously.

Yang Rui smiled and shook his head: "Change to another. From my professional perspective, you can't be an NBA star. Playing basketball depends on your talent."

Hunter was a little unhappy: "Why not, I am tall."

Yang Rui sighed: "Don't you look at what level of confrontation is in the NBA? I have to break up with my physique. Even if you grow to 1.9 meters in the future, can you train a muscle? Others give you a elbow. , Your delicate face is over. If you want to be handsome in basketball, you can play in school."

Hunter is usually narcissistic, blushing when someone says the main thing."Then what are you talking about?"

"Study hard, make progress every day." Yang Rui answered casually.

"..."

Hunter went home to meditate for several days and took a jersey to the snack bar to Yang Rui."I think about it, just write, never give up my dream!"

"Hey, this is really good, Hunter, what is your dream?"

"I don't know. Now...I don't know yet."

Yang Rui looked at him shy, and felt a chill.This is the tall male version of Scarlett. The two look so alike.

On September 23, Yang Rui received a phone call from the management to prepare him to participate in the team media day. The day after tomorrow, everyone on the team will get busy, and the new season is about to begin!
