For more than ten years, he has conquered movie audiences all over East Asia with one acclaimed and well-received movie after another, and is the well-deserved king of comedy in the Hong Kong film industry.

After Xu Guanwen said this, he ignored Lin Chaoyang's reaction and continued:

"When I was young, I wanted to buy a gold Rolex. Later, the gold Rolex became a Mercedes-Benz. But how much can I eat? How much can I drink? How much can I use?

The difference between the deposits in the bank and one more zero and one less zero is not much to me.

I am forty-three years old this year. The audience loves to see me perform comedy, but how many more years can I perform?

I can’t act anymore, and I don’t want the audience to look at me pretending to be crazy and stupid on the screen someday in the future, with disgust on their faces.”

Speaking of this, Xu Guanwen's face was filled with loneliness.

As the most popular star in the Hong Kong film industry in recent years, people only see his glamor, but no one knows his mental journey.

Xu Guanwen is the eldest son in the family. After he became famous, he focused on leading his younger brothers to succeed. Now all three younger brothers have carved out their own careers. Over the years, the reputation of the four Xu brothers as outstanding civil and military figures has spread throughout Hong Kong.

The brothers' wings were strong, and Xu Guanwen decisively chose to let go.

In the past, when the eldest brother acted in movies, his younger brothers would definitely have their place, but now, Xu Guanwen has not worked with his younger brothers for a long time.

Xu Guanwen rambled on about what was in his heart, while Lin Chaoyang and Li Hanxiang listened quietly.

"Lin Sheng, do you know why I came to you?" Xu Guanwen suddenly asked Lin Chaoyang.

"Why?"

Xu Guanwen laughed at himself, "We Xiangjiang people, whether you call it snobbish or realistic, if I said these things to that filmmaker, they would just think I'm hypocritical. But you are different..."

Xu Guanwen looked at Lin Chaoyang with eyes full of appreciation, "You are a writer, I believe you understand me."

Lin Chaoyang smiled. He didn't know whether Xu Guanwen's words were sincere or a compliment.

In his view, Xu Guanwen has the narcissism of an artist. Narcissism is certainly not a good thing in the eyes of others, but for many people engaged in art, it is a trait that must be possessed if they want to succeed.

"Mi Gao, I can understand your feelings. However, even if I cooperate with you, I may not be able to achieve the success you want, right?"

Lin Chaoyang's question hit the point. Xu Guanwen wanted to transform, so why should he be targeted?
