107 [A Chinese Ghost Story]
After questioning from the side, Wang Zijun learned that Wang Minchun was the son of Wang Xiling, the future director of Taiwan's intelligence bureau, and was currently a low-level cadre of the Ministry of the Interior of the Executive Yuan, but he also had an identity as a deputy in the personnel office of the Executive Committee of the Central Party Department.
These two positions are neither high nor low, but they are very potential, but this person is not well-known in the future, and I think he was dragged down by his father's crime in the 80s.
The main hall of Kaijukan, also known as Jiejudo, is a place for daily gatherings and entertaining international friends, and the seats below can only accommodate more than 400 people.
Naturally, the front-runners are the bigwigs of the military and political circles and international friends, and the last ones are the elites from the business, literary and artistic circles who have been invited. Wang Zijun was dragged by Wang Minchun to the crown prince. The party group is in a corner of the auditorium, and the position is not as good as that of the business bosses.
However, most of these people are full of arrogance, although most of them behave decently and do not speak ill of each other, but the disdain revealed in their bones makes Wang Zijun very unhappy.
"Brother Wang, this is Gu Yao, the grandson of Minister Gu, and the son of Gu Yao." Wang Minchun introduced Wang Zijun, a handsome man of twenty-seven or eighteen.
Gu Zhutong's grandson? That has to be a good relationship, this Kuomintang "saint in the army" is the auxiliary minister who escorted Chiang Ching-kuo to power.
"Brother Gu, this is our young man Wang Zijun from Taiwan." Wang Minchun introduced Wang Zijun's name.
"Hello." Gu Yaochang took the initiative to reach over.
"Hello." Wang Zijun shook hands with him, feeling that this person had no shelf, and it seemed that he was not bad.
But after chatting a few words, Wang Zijun saw that people thought he was from a drama background, and it seemed that he didn't want to have a deep friendship, and there was a faint feeling of rejecting people thousands of miles away.
After turning around, Wang Zijun also met many people, but unfortunately none of them could speak. Wang Minchun patted him on the shoulder and whispered: "Brother Wang, don't be angry, those people have eyes and don't know gold and jade." ”
Wang Zijun glanced at him, and couldn't help but feel a little funny. Wang Minchun wanted to get closer to him, and deliberately used the snubbing of these sons and brothers to set off his enthusiasm, and it is estimated that everyone was moved by him, but what is so difficult to guess about this kind of thought?
Wang Minchun and his father do not have a deep family background, his father was born as a guard officer of Lao Jiang, relying on Lao Jiang's close appreciation and his heartfelt promotion. As for himself, if he wants to follow his father's old path, he has to climb to Jiang Jingguo, and Wang Zijun's introduction to the party happens to be Jiang Jingguo, so he can't help but think about it too much!
The people who can come here to dine are all shrewd and mature people, and the second generation of officials who like to chase stars and worship Wang Zijun can only gather a group of friends to play at home. Wang Minchun wanted to pull Wang Zijun to sit at the same table with these people, but Wang Zijun didn't want to put a hot face on people's cold butts, and if he stayed for a while, he didn't know what kind of cynicism was coming.
"Zijun, come here!" Zheng Zhenkun beckoned to him, and asked the staff to add an extra seat and let him sit next to him.
Wang Zijun sat down and sighed: "Boss, you are good to me." ”
"What's the matter, you're deflated over there?" Zheng Zhenkun said with a smile.
"I didn't give you anything to eat, so I said hello." Wang Zijun said with a smile.
This table is all famous businessmen in Taiwan, but few people discriminate against Wang Zijun, especially after Wang Zijun's relationship with Master Wang's food company was found out by a few people, they have a taste of appreciation and vigilance.
"Lao Zheng, you are really a discerning talent, I admire you!" The boss of Taiwan Glass complimented.
"Where, where, it's just the light of Zijun." Zheng Zhenkun said with a smile, although it is a fifty-fifty share, he has earned at least more than 6 million on Wang Zijun, and there are other hidden incomes attached to it, which has also enhanced his appeal to new artists. It's only been four months.
Hong Jianquan suddenly asked: "Ah Jun, I heard Lao Zheng say that you are going to make a movie, and there are some problems with funds." ”
Wang Zijun suddenly became affectionate when he heard his title, and he didn't feel a little funny, and nodded: "Yes." ”
Hong Jianquan said: "I have been preparing an investment fund recently, but I can't find a project, are you interested in partnering? ”
"You'll have to figure it out." Wang Zijun said his expectations.
Hearing that Wang Zijun was going to invest 8 million to make a movie, the bosses present shook their heads, and they were all disinterested.
Hong Jianquan thought for a while and said, "Isn't 8 million a bit much?" I think 3 million is already a lot. ”
Wang Zijun said with a smile: "I can still take out 3 million myself." ”
Hong Jianquan thought about it, but he still didn't dare to invest. A few million is not too much for him, but if the investment fails, his face will not be very glorious.
After eating, other people can chat and fart at will, but Wang Zijun has to prepare for the performance.
The chief conductor of the party was Qiu Xuemei, who was a judge during the Wang Zijun singing competition, and she had already seen it during the rehearsal yesterday.
"Zijun, come here." Qiu Xuemei smiled and beckoned to Wang Zijun.
Wang Zijun was a little surprised, because this old woman usually has a straight face, why is she so amiable this time?
Qiu Xuemei's heart was also surging at this time, a few months ago, this young man in front of her was just a young student who was a little young in singing, and in a blink of an eye, he became a celebrity known to women and children on the island. The person who surprised her the most was that she temporarily received the instructions from above just now - Wang Zijun's "Loyal to the Country" was changed to the finale!
There is only one explanation that makes sense, that is, Wang Zijun has climbed to the top! Let her look up at the upper echelons.
Wang Zijun was also a little surprised when he learned that he was allowed to finale, but then he was relieved, and God was on the ground to participate in the last rehearsal.
The performers are all qualified and famous artists, and some are from the military, and the songs they sing must be the main theme of praising the party and the state, even the musical genius Liu Jiachang is not invited.
The show is being rehearsed intensively, and among the adults with solemn expressions, there is a group of children who are a few years old as embellishments.
Wang Zijun had nothing to do, so he watched these children dancing and playing, and his childlike heart suddenly rose, and he came to a cute little girl, pretending to be a childlike voice and asked, "Little friend, how old are you today?" ”
The little girl looked at the strange uncle in front of her with some fear, and replied milkily, "Four and a half years old." ”
"It's so cute!" Wang Zijun touched her face and asked, "What's your name!" ”
The little girl took two steps back and said, "I won't tell you, Dad said don't talk to strangers." ”
Wang Zijun sweated profusely.
Behind the girl came a woman who seemed to be her instructor. The woman touched the top of the little girl's head and said, "Big brother asks you something, go and tell him." ”
The little girl came over with some reluctance, pouted and said, "My name is Wang Zuxian." ”
(After Wang Zijun heard this, it was as if he was struck by a thunderbolt, and the three souls went out of his body and were directly carried to the ground.) The above is a remnant.
"Your name is Wang Zuxian, is it okay for my brother to invite you to eat lollipops." Wang Zijun tempted.
"No, my dad will buy it for me." Wang Zuxian was not fooled, but turned around and ran away.
Wang Zijun smiled bitterly and spread his hands, he was such a failure to be a man, he couldn't even deceive a little girl.
After a hard afternoon, Wang Zijun had already painted his makeup, and after having a working meal with the actors, he stayed backstage to rest.
As the sky gradually darkened, everyone came to the square outside the Kaijukan to wait for the rare fireworks display.
"Whoosh...... Sou...... Boom! ”
Fireworks rose into the sky above Taipei City and exploded, blooming with dazzling brilliance.
"Mom, look, it's time for fireworks!" The children of the city ran out into the streets and shouted, and the adults did not blame them tonight, they all stood there silently, looking up at the sky.
The fireworks take an hour, but most people in Taiwan can only watch the black-and-white footage recorded on television later in the evening.
The fireworks Wang Zijun, who was even more gorgeous than this, were all bad, but at this moment, he couldn't help but be infected by other people's emotions. Seeing Wang Zuxian and a group of children jumping and jumping there happily, Wang Zijun was so idle that he actually went to buy a bag of candy and gave it to the more than ten children.
"Oh, eat candy." A group of children pounced on Wang Zijun, laughing and grabbing candy to eat.
Wang Zuxian saw the movements of other children and also walked over, Wang Zijun opened the candy and said, "Ah, open your mouth." ”
"Ahh Wang Zuxian really opened his mouth wide.
"It's so cute." Wang Zijun said in his heart, stuffed the candy into her mouth with his hand, and picked her up.
Wang Zuxian did not resist this time, but let Wang Zijun hold him, and his attention was all on the fireworks in the sky.
"Is it pretty?" Wang Zijun asked.
"Well, it's good." Wang Zuxian nodded and said.
"I'm going to hug it too." A little boy eating candy next to him said.
Wang Zijun stretched out his hand and hugged him up, holding the two children on the left and right to watch the fireworks.
Before the fireworks ended, the actors were going back to get ready for the stage.
There were fruit cigarettes on the table below, and a group of bigwigs sat around the round table, chatting and watching the show, but Wang Zijun had to stay stupidly in the background. He's the finale, and he has to wait until he gets old.
was singing songs such as "Ode to the Soul of the Whampoa Army" in front, Wang Zijun fell asleep directly when he heard it, and then Qiu Xuemei came over to wake him up: "Get up and prepare, you will be on the stage immediately!" ”
"Next, I invite the music genius Wang Zijun to sing on stage, "Loyal to the Country"!"
The title of musical genius makes the people chatting below write funny, and everyone else calls the singer directly when they come on stage.
These people in the audience, especially those sitting in the front, basically didn't know Wang Zijun, and only a few people had read the report that he was shot, but they only remembered the incident clearly, not his face.
They are busy all day long, so naturally they don't have time to listen to Wang Zijun's songs. Therefore, when the galloping music of 10,000 horses sounded in the prelude, many people were stunned.
Wang Zijun walked out from behind, wearing a Mao suit, and yelled "wolf smoke". The heroic singing voice made some old generals quite excited, and their hearts said that this was like a song that could be heard, and when they were interested, they casually asked the people around them who were singing.
The representative of the US Air Force sitting next to Lao Jiang gave a thumbs up and said in English: "It's great, I can't imagine that there is rock music in Taiwan!" ”
After hearing this, Lao Jiang nodded with satisfaction, and then turned to the side and asked Jiang Jingguo: "Is he you talking about?" ”
"That's him." Chiang Ching-kuo nodded and said.
Wang Zijun sang decently, without a little flower, and after singing the song, Chiang Kai-shek actually took the lead in applauding. This surprised some people, and then echoed and applauded, but involuntarily kept Wang Zijun in mind.
