Kai Tak Airport is located in the urban area of ​​Hong Kong City, on the south bank of the Kowloon Peninsula and on the shore of Victoria Harbour. It is one of the busiest international airports in the world. It was built in 1924 and was originally used as a training base for flight schools.

In 1954, the Hong Kong government adopted the Airport Development Master Plan and decided to develop Kai Tak into an international airport.

As of last year, Kai Tak Airport's annual passenger volume was close to 10 million, and it is expected to exceed 10 million for the first time this year.

Outside Kai Tak Airport is the downtown area of ​​Kowloon City, surrounded by mountains on three sides. The mountains about 10 kilometers away to the north and northeast of the airport are as high as 2,000 feet; the mountains to the east are only 5 kilometers away from the runway. To the south of the airport is Victoria Harbor, and outside the harbor

Less than 10 kilometers away, there are mountains of about 1,700 feet on Hong Kong Island. Only the west side of the airport and the Lei Yue Mun Gap corner southeast of the runway are not blocked by mountains.

Kai Tak Airport has only one runway that extends into Victoria Harbor and was reclaimed from Kowloon Bay.

Cai Zhiliang was driving intently, Lin Qingxia was reading the script quietly, and both of them were silent for a while.

Cai Zhiliang and Lin Qingxia seemed to be unlucky today. They were blocked on Prince Edward Road. Looking ahead, there was a long queue of cars one after another, but there was no movement for a long time.

Cai Zhiliang seemed to say something to avoid embarrassment, but for a moment he didn't know what to say. After all, he had nothing to say, so he might as well remain silent.

When we get along with friends, we are most afraid of this kind of situation where we say we are familiar but we are not familiar with each other, and we say we are not familiar but we are acquainted. If we talk superficially, there is no nourishment. If we talk deeply, and there is not such a strong friendship, it seems very abrupt.

Fortunately, at this moment, Lin Qingxia's mobile phone rang.

"Hello..." Lin Qingxia answered the phone.

"Where have you been?" Li Yumin's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"I'm near Prince Edward Road. There's a traffic jam on the road..." Lin Qingxia's voice startled Cai Zhiliang, who was listening attentively. The mobile phone at this time was still a big brother, and the signal was not very good. It couldn't express its meaning unless it was loud.

It's mind-blowing.

With a "squeak" sound, Cai Zhiliang braked suddenly.

"Ah..." Lin Qingxia exclaimed, holding the mobile phone in one hand, and hurriedly holding the backrest of the front seat with the other hand. Fortunately, the speed of the car was very slow at this time, and even the sudden braking did not cause huge vibrations.

It's just that the brakes came so suddenly that people were caught off guard.

"I'm... so unqualified..." Cai Zhiliang was about to curse, but he stopped abruptly when he remembered Lin Qingxia in the car.

It turned out that when Cai Zhiliang pricked up his ears and eavesdropped on Lin Qingxia's phone call, his reaction was slower and he failed to keep up with the moving car in front of him in time. Seeing an opportunity, a red car from the side suddenly cut in and blocked Cai Zhiliang's progress.

direction.

"What's wrong?" Lin Qingxia asked with concern. She was just looking at her watch and didn't notice the car that suddenly cut in front of her.

Cai Zhiliang said angrily: "There is someone cutting in front of me, it seems I have to follow closely."

"It's okay, drive slowly, don't be in a hurry." Lin Qingxia comforted Cai Zhiliang, worried that the latter would get angry with others and something unexpected would happen, so she put her elder brother in her ear.

"Qingxia... what happened just now, are you okay..." Li Yumin's anxious voice came from the phone.

"I'm fine... There was a car cutting into the queue just now, and the driver hit the brakes." Lin Qingxia explained.

"Tell the driver to drive slower. I'm already at the airport. You don't have to be in such a hurry to come here. Pay attention to safety on the road." Li Yumin kept telling Lin Qingxia.

"Well, I know."

Lin Qingxia said a few words and then hung up the phone, not because the phone bill was expensive, but because these days, the battery is really hard to use. After eight or nine hours of charging, you can talk for an hour. Of course, the standby time will be a little longer.

longer.

Lin Qingxia looked at her watch and looked at the endless traffic ahead, feeling a little worried.

"Who are you going to pick up at the airport? Can you tell me?" Cai Zhiliang was a little curious, who comes to Hong Kong City and needs Lin Qingxia to pick him up at the airport.

Lin Qingxia smiled and said: "What's the inconvenience? It's Ms. Chen. You would have seen it in the newspaper if I didn't tell you."

"Ms. Chen?" Cai Zhiliang couldn't remember who this Ms. Chen was for a while. According to Lin Qingxia, she should be relatively famous. Otherwise, how could she be so sure to be in the newspapers?

"Qiong Yao, she came to Hong Kong to attend the Academy Awards ceremony." Lin Qingxia said, and Cai Zhiliang naturally knew who it was.

Lin Qingxia made her debut in Taiwan, and the first film she made was "Outside the Window" adapted from Qiong Yao's debut novel. This "Outside the Window" made Lin Qingxia quickly become popular.

After 1976, Lin Qingxia joined Qiong Yao's self-organized company Superstar Film Company, and collaborated with Qin Xianglin, Qin Han, etc., and starred in more than a dozen films adapted from Qiong Yao's novels, including "I Am a Cloud", "Hazy Moon, Hazy Bird", etc.

Become the embodiment of the heroine in Qiong Yao's works.

While these movies made her popular in Southeast Asia, they also limited her acting career to a certain extent, making her synonymous with literary and romantic films.

In any case, Qiong Yao can be regarded as Lin Qingxia's guide. When she came to Hong Kong City this time, she notified Lin Qingxia in advance, so she had the opportunity to pick her up.

As for why the Hong Kong Film Awards Committee was not there to pick him up at the airport, Cai Zhiliang did not ask. He just said: "It's still early before the Hong Kong Film Awards are presented, right?"

This year's Academy Awards is scheduled for the 6th of next month, with two weeks left. Lin Qingxia has also been shortlisted for the Academy Award for Best Actress for her outstanding performance in "Police Story".

"There may be other things." Lin Qingxia said lightly, as if she didn't want to mention it.

Qiong Yao has been adapting her novels into TV series since last year. The first TV series, "The Sunset Is Red" starring Qin Han and Liu Xuehua, has been filmed and has attracted huge attention since it premiered in Taiwan on January 7 this year.

Sensation. The two leading actors, Qin Han once again reached the peak of his career, and Liu Xuehua became well known to Taiwanese audiences.

It is said that Qiong Yao once invited Lin Qingxia to star and intended to bring Lin Qingxia and Qin Han together, but I don't know why it didn't happen in the end.

Cai Zhiliang originally wanted to ask if Qiong Yao came to Hong Kong to choose roles this time, or to invite Lin Qingxia back to Taiwan. After all, in another time and space, Qiong Yao often auditioned for roles, but seeing Lin Qingxia's attitude, he didn't ask again.

Seeing this, Cai Zhiliang tried to divert Lin Qingxia's attention and asked: "What time is her flight?"

Lin Qingxia looked at the watch on her wrist again and said: "There is still one hour."

In order to ease her anxiety, Cai Zhiliang said: "It will probably be an hour and a half after she comes out of the airport, which is enough time for us to arrive at the airport..."

Lin Qingxia nodded silently, as if thinking, but her eyes were fixed on the long queue in front of her.

Although there was a traffic jam, I was able to move forward slowly. Twenty minutes later, the road finally became clear.

"Thank you for sending me to the airport. I'll treat you to dinner another day." Lin Qingxia expressed her gratitude.

"I have time every day." Cai Zhiliang said while driving. It seemed to be a hint, come and treat me to dinner.

"Wait until my call is ready." Lin Qingxia promised.

Cai Zhiliang parked the car slowly, turned around and said, "I would like to ask Ms. Lin to seriously consider Zhao Shuo's proposal just now. Our company is very much looking forward to Ms. Lin's joining."

Regarding Cai Zhiliang's invitation again, Lin Qingxia nodded and said, "Well, I'll discuss it with Mrs. Li."

Cai Zhiliang pointed not far away and said: "Mrs. Li is over there, next to the promotional poster for "Thunderbolt Loudspeaker"."

Lin Qingxia followed what Cai Zhiliang pointed at, took a closer look, opened the car door, waved to Li Yumin, then turned back and said: "Mr. Cai, see you later..."
