Chapter 162: The New Year is Approaching

I got together with my classmates in Heqi.

After returning to Beiya, the house in the second phase of Guanyuan Apartment has been renovated, and the interior style is designed by a decoration design company in Beiya, with a casual style and light color. All the appliances that should be there, such as air conditioners, TVs, and computers, have also been moved into the house, and my mother has already cooked several meals in the kitchen.

The master bedroom is Zhang Tan's, and the parents don't want it, saying that the house Zhang Tan bought it, and they just come to live in Bei Tan once in a while, and it's good to live in the second bedroom. Two secondary bedrooms, one for parents and one for sister, are just right.

Coding words in a brand new room feels very different.

Next to the desk facing the balcony, there is a bookcase, on which are full of books, all of which are Zhang Tan's works.

There are three books of "The Four Famous Capture of the Kanto Region", which are simplified and traditional Chinese versions published by the three publishing houses of Xianxian Culture, Xiannan People, and Xinya Culture.

There are eight copies of "The Four Famous Catchers of Jingshi", which are three traditional Chinese editions published by Xianxian Culture and Xinya Culture, and two simplified Chinese editions published by the people of Xuannan.

There are eighteen copies of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", which are eight simplified Chinese books published by Anwei Literature and Art, and ten traditional Chinese books published by Xinya Culture.

There are thirteen copies of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", which are the six-volume simplified version published by Anwei Literature and Art, and the seven-volume traditional version published by Xinya Culture.

All that's left is a whole bunch of "Ancient Legends. Martial Arts Edition" magazine, as well as a copy of "Ancient Legends. Story Edition" and two "Martial Arts Stories".

Two "Martial Arts Stories" are his pen name and he published two short stories.

In the traditional Chinese version, because Taiwan's A-bian put forward the "one side and one country theory" last year, and passed the so-called "referendum law" this year, Taiwan. The independence is making a cheerful noise, and cross-strait relations are becoming increasingly tense. Therefore, the cooperation with Xianxian Culture has already been canceled, and all traditional Chinese versions are published and distributed. All handed over to the new elegant culture of Xiangxiang.

Zhang Tan is a man who seeks fame and fortune, and the bookcase in the bedroom is used exclusively for his own works, and no other books are placed. At most, on the bedside table, there are a few books on directing.

The New Year is about to end, and it is the annual art exam.

Although Zhang Tan received a guarantee from Nortel's leaders that he could open the back door. The art examination is to go through the motions, but at least you have to prepare for the formalities, and it can't be said that the director department has three tests in the first and second examinations, and they don't know anything about it. At the very least, you have to have a certain foundation, so now I sometimes take time to read books.

However, it is said that the exams of the directing department, from astronomy to geography, to the international situation and to the gossip and names, may be used as test questions, and the test is whether the students have a huge amount of knowledge and careful observation of life.

If you let Zhang Tan take the test with his ability. I guess I won't be able to pass the first test.

However, this can't shake his determination to be a director, his confidence as a director is different from that of ordinary directors, as long as he learns the skills of a director and knows how to schedule the crew, he will be sure to copy the good movies of his previous life.

So when it comes to opening the back door, Zhang Tan doesn't have a weak heart.

"Well, after the New Year, there will be an art exam, and the content of the exam is probably a variety of popular phenomena in 2003. SARS, Flood, Containment, Mine Disaster, Hatred of the Sun, Li Mei, Shenzhou Spacecraft, Taiwan. Independence and hepatitis B discrimination are both major events this year, and maybe they will be tested in the written test. ”

"Oh yes. BT is also a hot phenomenon this year, as soon as BT comes out, everyone is for me, I am for everyone, and no one can stop the small movie! ”

BT is a file-sharing protocol based on the principle of "all for one, one for all" for downloading. That is, the user is both a downloader and a provider, as long as there is a torrent, the more people who download, the faster the download speed. After the invention of the BT protocol, movie websites that were seeking to charge for money immediately hit the streets.

Countless film company bosses can't wait to bring BT's father, Braim. Cohen unloaded eight pieces. Keep an eye on Cohen. Because BT is suspected of spreading piracy, Cohen doesn't dare to watch piracy even if he watches a DVD at home, for fear of being sued by anti-piracy organizations, let alone using BT to download small movies.

The father of BT can't download movies with BT, and Cohen is also extremely depressed.

……

Before the Chinese New Year, the crew of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" was officially shut down.

There was no finale banquet, no champagne, no celebrations, the crew was disbanded directly, and all the cast and crew went home for the New Year.

Zhang Tan's family is discussing whether to stay in Bei for the New Year or go back to their hometown to be lively.

Zhang Tan supports the New Year in Beiya, although he likes to join in the fun, but after returning to his hometown, there are too many relatives and elders, and now he has a good reputation, so he has to be poured back and forth by the elders. This is not a scene that Zhang Tan wants to see, if an ordinary person can still integrate into it, he will be happy.

The shadow of the famous tree of people, now everywhere you go, you are a guest, it is really boring.

However, in the end, he did not stay in Beiya.

As the old saying goes, parents are not far away, and now grandfather Zhang Henong is still in his hometown, as a descendant, but he is adrift and unwilling to return to his hometown, which is against human ethics. So the end of the year is approaching, or go back to Hexi, give the employees of Luzhou studio a year-end bonus, and after having a meal, the family returned to their hometown in Gangji Town.

The small western-style building in the hometown, under the care of grandpa Zhang Henong, is full of flowers and plants, but it is also chic.

The Audi A6 stopped in front of the small western-style building, and the family members who had been notified had already rushed over.

Especially the children of the younger generation, what are they happy about, every time Zhang Tan's family goes back to their hometown, they always bring something to eat.

"Little fourth, come here, take down the wall calendar, melon seeds and sugar on the car, and divide them among the families." Zhang Quanshun got out of the car and immediately ordered Zhang Tan's cousin.

When the end of the year was approaching, publishing houses, writers' associations, magazines, and the government all gave a lot of year-end benefits, and some enterprises that couldn't beat the eight poles also sent a lot of gifts to Zhang Tan, a celebrity in Hexi.

There are so many desk calendars, wall calendars, and calendars that you can't put them at home.

Local specialties such as melon seeds, small sugar cakes, etc., are also packed one after another.

There are also the most send-off of all kinds of good cigarettes, good wine, and good tea.

With so many things, Zhang Tan's family couldn't use them at all, so they brought them back and dispersed them a little bit for their relatives.

Hugged a large stack of wall calendars, and then took out a bunch of melon seeds and small sugar, Zhang Quanshun shouted Zhang Tan again: "Come, a family of two bottles of wine, two boxes of cakes, two bags of sugar, Yangyang, you send them to the uncle." ”

The trunk of the Audi car is in a state of stuffing, and it will take out most of it after a while, and it will be divided a lot for the uncle, third uncle, and fourth uncle's family. And Zhang Henong accepted the best tea from his children and grandchildren, the old man smoked and drank normally, and the best was a sip of tea.

Not only the trunk, but also the back seat of the car was stuffed with things, and I almost couldn't even sit down.

After unloading the New Year's goods, Zhang Quanshun threw the keys to the Audi car to Zhang Tan: "The cigarettes and alcohol in the car have been sorted, you drive to send you to your grandfather, uncles and aunts, and your aunt." ”

"Got it." Zhang Tan lit the fire, drove an Audi car, and hit the road in style.

Without a driver's license, I didn't dare to drive in Hexi, so I could only enjoy myself in a rural market town. When I got to my grandfather's side, there was a lively scene again, Zhang Tan's uncle's family, the number of people was more than the old Zhang family, it was a local family, although they were all farmers and workers, but in places that paid attention to the clan, more people meant that there were many people, and ordinary people did not dare to provoke.

"Eat here in the evening!" Zhang Tan's uncle said that he could not refuse.

Zhang Tan bared his teeth: "If I don't drink, I'll eat here, and I'll go back if I drink, I drive, drunk driving is easy to get into accidents." ”

"Then don't drink, eat food."

Driving was a good excuse and sure enough I didn't drink for dinner.

After eating, I talked to my grandfather, and Zhang Tuo said goodbye and went back. When I returned home, the family hadn't finished eating yet, Zhang Quanshun and the other four old brothers, as well as Zhang Tan's uncle and two cousins of the uncle's family, were drinking and bragging. The air conditioner in the house was on, and it was not cold at all.

Several aunts and aunts were chatting about Zhang's family, Li Jiaxiao.

Zhang Quanshun blushed and beckoned: "Why did you come back now, come and drink two glasses of wine with your uncle." "Uncle here is not called uncle, he is called uncle, which is a bit like the name of people in the past.

"Yang Yang is getting taller now, and he hasn't been so tall this summer." Zhang Tan's uncle was also drunk and his face was flushed.

Zhang Tan sat down, took a clean cup, and poured wine.

Tan Mingxia felt sorry for her son eating cold dishes, so she quit the gossip circle, and walked over to look at a few plates of stir-fried vegetables on the table: "You still have to drink, be careful if you drink too much, you won't be able to walk tomorrow, Yang Yang, what do you want to eat, Mom go and heat up the dishes." ”

Zhang Quanshun is now helping Zhang Tan preside over the business, and he signs everything on his behalf, and he has seen a lot of scenes, and there is more and more of the head of the family, and he instructed his wife at the moment: "Of course you have to drink well, you are all in the family, and you are not afraid to drink too much, you heat up the pork belly, and then heat up these two stir-fried vegetables, and then order some noodles." ”

Such an old-fashioned style.

In front of outsiders, Tan Mingxia gave him face, couldn't help but have a seizure, and just asked Zhang Tan: "What else do you like to eat?" ”

"Mom, don't bother, just heat up what my dad said, I can't eat anything, I've eaten a lot at my uncle's house."

"Drinking and not eating food hurts your stomach, I'll go and heat up the food, don't be in a hurry to drink first."

Tan Mingxia went to the hot dish with a plate, and bought a microwave oven at home, and the hot dish was very good.

After toasting his uncle's wine, Zhang Tan asked with some curiosity: "What about grandpa?" ”

Zhang Qiang, the lobby brother, said: "Grandpa drank two more glasses of wine, and it was a bit upset, so he went to sleep first." Come, Yangyang, we brothers go one. ”

……

Countdown to Chinese New Year's Eve.

The old Zhang family is like a city.

Relatives and friends have taken the opportunity to send many New Year's goods, the most of which are pickles and game, chicken, fish, meat and eggs from the farm, which are piled up in a room, and it is estimated that they will not be able to eat them all in a year. In Gangji Town, Zhang Tan's family is not rich, and the richest man in Gangji is said to be worth hundreds of millions, but when it comes to fame, Zhang Tan is definitely the first.

Even the county secretary took the opportunity of New Year's condolences to come to Zhang Tan's house to sit down and chat about family life.

Straight exaggerated Tan is a business card of Changfeng County.

"It's really ......"

Zhang Tan looked at the calendar torn up page by page, thinking back to his previous life, and inexplicably sighed: "Human feelings are like thin paper, and the world is like a new chess game." No one asks about the poor in the downtown area, and the rich have distant relatives in the mountains. If you don't believe it, but look at the wine in the banquet, the cup will first respect the rich and noble......" (to be continued.) )
