Chapter 69: Thoughts
In many people's impressions, the CCTV Spring Festival Gala in 1983 was the first one, but Xu Wangqiu knew that there was the first Spring Festival Gala in 1979, and the director of the Spring Festival Gala was Yang Jie, the director of "Journey to the West". Xu Wangqiu likes "Journey to the West", and after reading a little information about the director and actors of "Journey to the West", he remembered that Yang Jie was the director of the first Spring Festival Gala.
In this era, only a very small number of people can enjoy TV, and those who can afford TV definitely belong to a well-off family. There is no problem with Xu Wangqiu's money to buy a TV set for his family, but the problem is that he can't buy a TV ticket without a TV. Xu Wangqiu knew that there was an imported 20-inch TV in the staff activity center of Xiuying Studio, so he asked Su Zhensheng to borrow the key from the trade union. Therefore, their family finished the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner early, and the whole family went to the show studio to watch the Spring Festival Gala.
Xu Wangqiu and his family came to the staff activity center, but found Su Bai standing at the door and couldn't stop looking. Xu Wangqiu hurriedly walked over and said in a reproachful tone: "You don't stay at home well, what are you doing here?"
Su Bai was a little unhappy when she heard Xu Wangqiu say this: "I want you to take care of it! I'm here to visit Bei, and my uncle and aunt!" Saying that, she went over to greet Xie Chunhong and them, and then took out a piece of money and handed it to Xu Wangbei: "Wangbei, this is the New Year's money for you." ”
Xu Wangbei is very familiar with Su Bai, and in her eyes, Su Bai is like a sister. If someone else gave the New Year's money, Xu Wangbei would pretend to refuse, but Su Bai gave it, and she accepted it without hesitation: "Thank you, Sister Su Bai! Sister Su Bai, are you here to find the second brother?"
"I'm not here for him. Su Bai glanced at Xu Wangqiu, took Xu Wangbei's arm, and said with a smile, "I don't have anything to do at home, and I remembered that we Wangbei are here, so I came to play with you." ”
At the same time, Su Zhensheng was cleaning up the table with his children. Su Wei, the eldest son of the Su family, said curiously: "Didn't the little sister say to go out, why didn't she come back for so long?
Su Zhensheng smiled: "It's going to be fine, she must have gone to find Wangqiu." The kid said that there was a party on TV tonight, so he borrowed the key to the activity center. Su Bai must have gone to see it too. Speaking of this, the old man sighed: "The woman is not staying!"
Su Wei suddenly realized: "I said why did my little sister run out in a hurry, it turned out that she went on a date with Wangqiu." ”
Not long after entering the staff activity center and turning on the TV, the party began. The Spring Festival Gala in 1979 was different from the later Spring Festival Gala, it was a "tea house" party, called the "New Year Gala". The party pioneered the fusion of champagne, ballroom dancing, bullfighting dance and other "foreign" creations, which was refreshing. Xu Wangqiu was particularly pleasantly surprised to see Teacher Zhao Lirong, but unfortunately the old lady did not act in a sketch, but sang two commentaries.
"The wine is fragrant and the song is flying, friend, please have a toast......" Li Guangxi's "Toast Song" is undoubtedly a highlight of the whole party, the cheerful style and strong atmosphere of the times made Xu Wangqiu's family applaud.
Su Bai said excitedly: "This song is so good, but it's a pity that there are too few good songs now." I heard on the radio that everyone in Xiangjiang has a special concert, and many singers take turns to sing, how can we organize such a performance!"
This sentence was like a thunderclap that sounded in the quiet midnight, almost shaking Xu Wangqiu's seven souls and six spirits out of his body.
These days, Xu Wangqiu is not only thinking about the problem of "Hoe Rape", but also refining his plan that has been conceived for many years. His original idea of Chinese movies was to pull it if he could, and if it really couldn't be pulled, he could do it. But after Nortel's symposium, he decided to do everything in his power to change all that, so he made a big adjustment to the plan.
Now Xu Wangqiu's new plan has been roughly thought of, but the biggest difficulty is the problem of start-up funds, which require hundreds of thousands, or even millions, of funds to start that plan. For this era when 10,000 yuan households are rich, it can be said that it is difficult for private individuals to come up with hundreds of thousands, or even millions of funds.
Xu Wangqiu has conceived many money-making schemes for this, but these schemes are quite difficult and have policy risks. If it doesn't work out, when it comes to cracking down, it will be regarded as speculation.
Su Bai's words woke up Xu Wangqiu and allowed him to find a way to make money, but it was very safe, and organized a walk.
In the 80s, one of the most important words in the Chinese performance market was to go to the hole, as long as it was a star, no matter how big or small, basically it would go to the hole. Liu Xiaoqing is known as a billionaire sister, and the first pot of gold in her life came by walking through the holes.
Xu Wangqiu heard his teacher say that at that time, Nortel students also went to the acupuncture, especially the students of the 85 star class, and they would be divided into two teams to go to the acupoints during the winter and summer vacations, one team went south and the other team went north. The scene is comparable to today's superstar concert, when it is the hottest, it performs seven times a day, and you can get an average of about 120 yuan per game.
If you can organize a group of celebrities to go around the country, it will definitely not be difficult to earn hundreds of thousands of dollars in a year or two. Scalping goods has been branded as speculation, sentenced, and even shot, but I have never heard of anyone going to prison for organizing a hole.
After thinking of this, Xu Wangqiu seemed to have been opened up and Ren Du's second vein, and all 36,000 pores on his body were opened, revealing comfort from the inside out. He grabbed Su Bai's hand and said excitedly: "Su Bai, you are really my lucky star! You have really helped me a lot!"
Su Bai saw Xu Wangqiu holding his hand in front of his family, his cheeks were slightly red, and he struggled hard, but he didn't break free, so he let him hold it, and asked casually, "What did I do you a big favor?"
Xu Wangqiu definitely didn't say what he thought, but chuckled: "I can't say it now, I'll tell you later!" But what I can tell you is that this matter is very important to me, very, very important!"
Su Bai didn't ask much, and glanced at him and said, "It's mysterious all day long." ”
Xie Chunhong saw Xu Wangqiu holding Su Bai's hand and not letting go, and Su Bai also let him hold it, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but smile, as a person who came over, she had already seen that Su Bai liked Xu Wangqiu, and Xu Wangqiu also liked Su Bai. She likes Su Bai very much, this girl has a good family background, a good temper, a beautiful person, and no need to say anything about her conduct, she is definitely the most ideal daughter-in-law. She smiled and poked Xu Wen's arm, and motioned for your son to take Su Bai's hand.
Xu Zhuwen glanced at her, which means that people are young and young, what are you fooling in.
In fact, Xu Wangqiu really didn't mean to hold Su Bai's hand, but really forgot about it. Now his mind was full of his own plans, and he didn't pay much attention to anything else.
Xu Wangqiu thought about that plan all night, and kept revising the details of the plan. I kept thinking about it at three or four o'clock in the morning, and the whole plan took shape. Show Studio, Xu Wangchuan, Concert, Cave ...... All the threads are connected together to form a complete puzzle. There is no perfect plan in this world, and there is no plan that is 100% successful, and Xu Wangqiu's plan is the same, but he is extremely confident in his plan, and feels that the certainty of success is at least above the ninth level.
Because he slept too late, Xu Wangqiu woke up in the morning with obvious dark circles under his eyes. After washing, Xu Wangqiu and his brothers and sisters made dumplings under the command of Xie Chunhong. In this era, there was no special rice ball heart to sell, so Xu Wangqiu's family used brown sugar to make rice ball hearts. After the rice balls are wrapped, they are put into a pot and boiled, and the family sits at the table and waits.
Soon the hot rice balls were served, round as beads, and white as jade floating on the clear soup noodles, that kind of temptation was really indescribable! Xu Wangbei couldn't wait to take a bite, and was so hot that he screamed. Everyone else laughed, only Xie Chunhong felt sorry for her daughter: "Eat slowly!
Xu Wangbei smiled and said to Xu Wangbei: "Wangbei little beauty, the second brother taught you to sing a song." Sell glutinous rice balls, sell glutinous rice balls. The second brother's rice balls are round and round, if you want to eat the rice balls, come and buy them, eat the rice balls and have a good reunion......"
Xu Zhuwen and Xie Chunhong are not from Rongcheng, they have no relatives in Rongcheng, unlike many people, who will walk the streets and alleys during the Chinese New Year and go to relatives' houses to pay New Year's greetings. However, since they are factory workers, the relationship between colleagues is relatively good. From the second day of the Lunar New Year, colleagues will greet each other for the New Year. Xu Wangqiu did not have the habit of following his parents to pay New Year's greetings, but Xu Wangbei liked to follow him to join in the fun.
Xu Wangqiu was not idle, and went to Qingyang Palace with Su Bai to watch the lantern festival. Visiting the lantern festival during the Spring Festival has been a tradition in Rongcheng for many years, and it is also the happiest thing during the Spring Festival. During the lantern festival, all kinds of colorful lanterns compete to display, chandeliers, hanging lanterns, horse lanterns, carp lanterns, lotus lanterns, dazzling;
Rongcheng people have the custom of touching the green sheep in the Qingyang Palace during the Spring Festival, and everyone believes that the two bronze sheep have divine power and can ask for blessings and drive away disasters. Of course, Su Bai didn't believe in this kind of thing, but it didn't prevent her from joining in the fun and touching Qingyang. The copper sheep was cold, it was winter again, Su Bai couldn't help but sigh at his hands after touching it, and said in his mouth: "It's so cold!
Xu Wangqiu gloated and said: "Let you go and join in the fun, you deserve it!"
Su Bai glared at Xu Wangqiu: "It's really unsympathetic!" She will put her cold hand into Xu Wangqiu's neck and laugh proudly: "This is your punishment!"
Xu Wangqiu didn't speak, just looked at her quietly. Su Bai thought that Xu Wangqiu was angry, so he withdrew his hand weakly. Unexpectedly, Xu Wangqiu grabbed Su Bai's right hand and held it tightly: "Your hand is really cold." I'll give you a hot cover. ”
Su Bai felt the heat coming from Xu Wangqiu's hand, her face turned red, there were people all around, she wanted to break away, but Xu Wangqiu held it very tightly, and she couldn't break free at all, so she said softly: "What are you doing?"
Xu Wangqiu said with an innocent face: "Didn't you say that I have no sympathy? I found that your hands were very cold, so I warmed your hands! If you don't want to, then forget it! I won't care about you anymore." With that, he let go of Su Bai's hand.
Su Bai immediately grabbed Xu Wangqiu's hand: "Who said I didn't want to?
The two held hands and wandered around in Qingyang Palace, Xu Wangqiu was very calm about this, he should see it, he should say it, but Su Bai was a little embarrassed, and even a little panicked, for fear of being seen by acquaintances. After a while, Su Bai's palms were sweaty, and Xu Wangqiu let go of his hand and said Your hands are hot. But after a few steps, Su Bai grabbed his hand again, no, he had to cover it for a while.
After the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, Xu Wangqiu took the train back to Beiping to make final preparations for the filming. Su Bai could have stayed at home for a few more days, but Xu Wangqiu was going back to Beiping, and she also went back to Beiping with her. Su Zhensheng sighed for a long time, the woman was not staying, and her baby girl was abducted by Wangqiu.
After staying in Beiping for a week, Xu Wangqiu and the crew of "Hoe Rape" packed their bags, loaded the equipment and props needed for film shooting, and prepared to set off for the magic capital.
