The knock on the door was a girl in her early twenties, dressed in loose loungewear, with an apron tied to her chest, her eyes were red, and she seemed to have just cried.

"Sister Yuan Yuan, what's wrong with you?"

This girl is one of the two very good friends mentioned in the diary, Li Kaiyuan, the childhood sweetheart's sister next door, Shen Chong has met twice before, but every time she is in a hurry, she has not had much contact.

"Do you have anything to drink?" Li Kaiyuan ignored Shen Chong, walked straight into the living room, lay down on the sand without any image, and shouted: "I'm dying of thirst!" ”

Shen Chong shook his head and smiled, and went into the kitchen to get a drink.

It is recorded in the diary that Li Kaiyuan has been lively and active since he was a child, he was raised as a boy, he was the king of children in the neighborhood, he was naughty and mischievous and did everything.

The Li family and the Shen family are good friends, both parents are friends, Li Kaiyuan has treated Shen Chong as a younger brother since he was a child, and has always taken care of him, and the relationship between the two is very good.

took a bottle of Coke to Li Kaiyuan, Shen Chong sat on the side and asked, "Did you quarrel with someone?" ”

"Am I like someone who fights every day?" Li Kaiyuan glared at Shen Chong, took the Coke, drank half a bottle in one gulp, and then said: "It's not my mother's old stubbornness, she won't let me resign, if I dare to resign, she won't recognize me as a daughter, I am resigned, not elopement!" I'm so......"

Li Kaiyuan muttered a lot, Shen Chong listened for a while, combined with the content in the diary, and quickly figured out the reason for the matter.

Li Kaiyuan doesn't like to study, so she came out to work after graduating from middle school, and her mother Aunt Liu asked someone to help her find a job as an import and export trade agent. Li Kaiyuan is very capable, almost every year is the best performance of the company, but the boss is too picky, neither gives her a promotion, nor gives her a raise, and colleagues secretly exclude her, Li Kaiyuan is very unhappy, and wants to resign and go alone, but Aunt Liu does not agree, the mother and daughter are both stubborn, and they have been fighting for several days.

"I've been doing this for three or four years, I know everything clearly, and I still have a group of regular customers in hand, why can't I quit and work alone?" Li Kaiyuan estimated that he was aggrieved, grabbed Shen Chong, the audience, and vomited bitterness, "Do it in the company, make a single only 1% commission, and work hard every month for more than 10,000 yuan, come out and work alone, a list has at least 1o% profit, just do it for 50,000 or 60,000 yuan, and be at ease, Ah Chong, tell me, isn't this much better than working in the company?" ”

Shen Chong was a little surprised, now the monthly income of ordinary wage earners in Hong Kong is only about two or three thousand, Li Kaiyuan earns more than 10,000 yuan a month, and his work ability is really not ordinarily strong, no wonder Aunt Liu doesn't let her resign, and a stable job with a monthly income of more than 10,000 yuan is naturally very precious in the eyes of the older generation. (Note 1)

Seeing that Shen Chong had been listening and not speaking, Li Kaiyuan was also deflated, and said with a smile: "It's useless to tell you, you nerd, you don't understand anything." ”

Shen Chong smiled, he used to be a nerd, but now he is not, but he is not easy to argue, so he asked: "Sister Yuan Yuan, what do you foreign trade agents mainly do?" ”

"Toys, and occasionally electronics."

It turned out to be toys, before the rise of mainland manufacturing, Hong Kong's toy manufacturing industry was well-known all over the world, and it was indeed easier to make money in this business.

Wait, toys...... Toy......

A flash of inspiration flashed in Shen Chong's mind, he slapped his thigh and stood up excitedly.

It's really nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it, and the first pot of gold that has been tangled for a few days finally has an eyebrow!

"Ah Chong, what are you doing? Crazy and crazy. ”

"There's something here that stabbed me." Shen Chong pretended to touch the sand, sat down in a different place, and then asked, "What toys do you make in your company?" ”

"Building blocks, fluffy bears, plastic dolls and the like, some are directly requested, some are provided by customers with design drawings, we find factories to do it, and make a difference in the price."

"Where are the customers?"

"The United States, Japan, and Europe have them, mainly from the United States." Li Kaiyuan replied casually. She drank all her Coke, stood up, and said, "Okay, I'll go back, if I don't go back, my mother will definitely come to me, and the apron is still on me." ”

"Are you alright?" Shen Chong gestured and signaled that her eyes were still red.

"It's okay, it's not a quarrel with my mother." Li Kaiyuan waved his hand indifferently, not caring at all, "If it doesn't work out this time, next time, let her agree to my resignation one day." ”

Wind and fire, positive and optimistic, everything does not linger, such a girl is really rare.

"Come early in the evening for dinner." Before going out, Li Kaiyuan told again: "Don't stay at home alone, it's like a gourd, people will become stupid after staying for a long time." ”

"Okay, I'll go down in a moment."

Today is Laba Festival, Aunt Liu greeted him a few times and asked him to eat together at night for the festival, and it was difficult to resist the hospitality.

After sending Li Kaiyuan away, Shen Chong didn't send the letter, went into the study, found a few blank papers, and began to draw the design drawings.

Shen Chong is an adult after all, and he hasn't fiddled with toys for many years, so he has been going around and around for the past few days, and he hasn't thought about it in this way, Li Kaiyuan's words woke up the dreamer, and made him think of a toy that he liked to play with in his previous life.

The cost is low, the sales volume is huge, it is definitely the best choice to dig the first pot of gold, it is not an exaggeration to say, if it is not the task of the aliens, Shen Chong only needs to get this toy out, he can spend a lifetime drinking, such a high-quality gold mine, Shen Chong can't help but be excited.

When you are engrossed, time always flies, and before a design sketch is finished, you hear a knock on the door.

When I opened the door, there was a little girl standing outside, with apricot eyes and thin lips, picturesque eyebrows, and a beautiful embryo.

"It's time to eat!" The little girl poked her head out and looked around the room a few times, "What are you doing sneaking around at home?" I didn't answer when I knocked on the door for a long time. ”

Shen Chong apologized repeatedly, hurriedly grabbed the key, closed the door, and followed the little girl out.

This little girl is Li Kaiyuan's younger sister, Li Tianbao, thirteen years old, just entered middle school, after Shen Chong crossed, inherited the responsibility of his predecessor, and gave her make-up lessons every day, fortunately, the middle school textbooks are not very difficult, otherwise Shen Chong will be embarrassed.

Counting up, Li Tianbao is currently the person that Shen Chong has been with the longest in this time and space, and he is also the most familiar person.

In a very good mood today, Shen Chong looked at the ponytail swaying in front of him, and couldn't help teasing: "Tianbao, call Brother Chong to listen." ”

"Hooligans!" The little girl turned around, glared at Shen Chong fiercely, and ran away along the stairs.

Little Lori's cute expression made Shen Chong laugh.

It is recorded in the diary that Li Tianbao has always called Shen Chong "Brother Chong", but last year Shaw Brothers released "Smiling Proud Jianghu", which made Hu Chong's name spread all over Xiangjiang.

Shen Chong's house is on the fourth floor, and Li's house is on the second floor, and they walked in a few steps.

As soon as he entered the door, Shen Chong smelled the strong aroma of vegetables, and couldn't help but move his index fingers.

Shen Chong was a native of Anhui in his previous life, and his taste was heavy, although the Cantonese cuisine was broad and profound, rich and colorful, but it was light, and it was not enjoyable to eat.

"Look at your slander." Li Kaiyuan walked out of the kitchen with dishes and chopsticks, saw Shen Chong's appearance, and joked with a smile: "Be careful, don't drip saliva into the dishes." ”

The nerves are really big enough, this smile is full of laughter, how can there be the shadow of the red eyes and depressed and crazy just now......

"Ah Chong, are you hungry?" Aunt Liu took a plate of dishes and walked out of the kitchen.

Aunt Liu is a native of Sichuan, a beauty in Shu, although the years are like knives, but you can still vaguely see the demeanor of her youth, Li Tianbao inherited her appearance, Li Kaiyuan is more like her father, with a pair of thick eyebrows that are rare for girls, heroic, not like ordinary women.

"I didn't feel anything, but now when I look at this table, I feel very hungry." Shen Chong replied with a smile, he glanced at the half-open study and asked, "Why didn't you see Uncle Li?" ”

"My dad went to a meeting, and he called us back just now to let us eat first, so we don't have to wait for him."

"Ah Chong, sit, let's eat first." Aunt Liu fiddled with the dishes, beckoned Shen Chong to sit at the table, and complained: "They are old leftists, but there will be a lot, and they will hold meetings all day and night, and they will talk about useless things." Your Uncle Li is a projectionist in a theater, and he is not a sesame official, what kind of party are you going to have? Let him quit to help me sell fruits, and he still doesn't want to, as far as the movie he shows, there won't be ten people watching it a month......"

Uncle Li is the only person Shen Chong has met who is engaged in the film industry at present, and he used to be the director in charge of props at the Great Wall Film Company, which is the mainstay of Hong Kong's leftist film company, so Aunt Liu calls him "Lao Zuo".

The Great Wall Film Company was greatly impacted when it was buzzing, basically stopped production, and was in a state of abandonment, not only did it have no salary, but the employees also had to go back to the mainland to receive ideological education, criticize and reform, but fortunately, Uncle Li was a non-partisan progressive, and escaped the catastrophe, and was transferred to the Yindu Cinema as a projectionist, showing model plays and black-and-white war films produced in the mainland, these films have no market in Hong Kong at all, and the Yindu Cinema is full of people.

"Okay, Mom, Dad likes it, you just let him do it, and there is no shortage of money at home." Li Kaiyuan interrupted Aunt Liu's nagging and yelled at Li Tianbao, who was watching TV: "Tianbao, don't look at it, come over for dinner." ”

Li Tianbao turned off the TV slowly, and when he sat down at the table, Shen Chong couldn't wait to grab a piece of boiled beef, tasted it first, and gave a thumbs up after eating.

"Authentic and good Sichuan food, authentic and good taste!"

"Sycophants!" Tianbao squinted his eyes and turned white, Shen Chong softened, his eyes flowed, and he was cute and cute.

"It's rude." Li Kaiyuan used chopsticks to make a gesture, and Tianbao was so frightened that she shrank her neck - she didn't eat her sister's fried chestnuts, and she was very scared of her.

Aunt Liu smiled at Shen Chong's praise, and asked with a smile: "Ah Chong, are you used to eating?" This chili is from the mainland and is spicier than the local ones in Hong Kong. ”

Li Kaiyuan was also puzzled: "Ah Chong, didn't you can't eat spicy food before?" ”

"I don't know, suddenly I'm not afraid of spicy." Shen Chong said casually, after the crossing, this kind of oolong incidents emerged one after another, and he was already not surprised and knew how to deal with it.

Sandwiched a piece of beef, Shen Chong imitated the tone of the later TV documentary commentary, and said: "Boiled beef, is a famous dish in Sichuan, the legend originated from the Northern Song Dynasty, pay attention to the dark color and strong taste, fragrant and tender meat, Aunt Liu's craftsmanship is extraordinary, this dish, numb, spicy, fresh, fragrant, tender, all five flavors, the meat is delicate, fresh and delicious, oily but not greasy, it is a treasure, the opportunity is rare, no matter how spicy it is, it must be eaten." ”

"He is worthy of being a top student of HKU, or an expert in Ah Chong, who understands taste." Aunt Liu smiled from ear to ear, pointed to her two daughters and said, "These two girls always think that the food I cook is not delicious, and they really don't know how to be blessed." ”

Li Tianbao was originally respectful of the full pot of red peppers, but when he saw what Shen Chong said, he half-believed a piece of beef, took two bites, and quickly spit it out, picked up the Coke on the side and drank a few sips, fanning the wind with his small hands while drinking, and shouted with a bitter face: "It's spicy, it's spicy." ”

"Dead girl, I really suspect that you were picked up by me, why can't you eat any spicy food." Aunt Liu complained while pouring Coke for Tianbao, "If you can't eat it, don't eat it, what's strong." ”

"Tell my brother it's delicious." Li Tianbao accused Shen Chong in a coquettish voice, "It's all his fault, big liar!" ”

Everyone laughed and was happy, and Shen Chong's heart was full of gratitude.

Aunt Liu is amiable, Sister Yuan Yuan is cheerful and generous, and Tianbao is sensible and cute, which dissolves his sense of alienation from this strange era and makes him no longer lonely in this strange city.

At this moment, the sound of opening the door sounded, and then a middle-aged man with thick eyebrows and big eyes walked in, it was Li Tang, the owner of the house - the names of the two Li Kaiyuan sisters originated from the word "Tang" in Li Tang's name.

"Uncle Li is back."

"Ah Chong is here, sit, sit, you eat first."

Li Tang looked in a good mood with a spring breeze on his face, he took out a bottle of liquor from the corner of the kitchen, sat down on the table, and beckoned Shen Chong to say, "Ah Chong also have some?" ”

"Dad, it's not like you don't know that Ah Chong can't drink." Li Kaiyuan stopped.

"Manly man, how can you do if you don't know how to drink, come, drink a little, practice first."

"Okay, I'll accompany Uncle Li to drink a little." This body doesn't know how much alcohol it has, but in his previous life, Shen Chong was an iron warrior who had been tested by alcohol, and he was not drunk with a thousand cups.

"Look at the way you look at you." Aunt Liu sandwiched a piece of chicken to Li Tang and asked, "There will be a good thing today?" ”

Li Tang picked up the wine glass, touched it with Shen Chong, raised his head and drank it dry, and then said: "The Great Wall is ready to start filming again, and plans to let me go back to the factory to help." (Note 2)

Shen Chong's eyes lit up, he hurriedly put down his wine glass, and asked repeatedly, "What kind of movie are you making?" When are you going to start filming? ”

The emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, although the Great Wall Film Company has been abandoned for many years, but it was once a large production company that could distinguish itself from the Shaw Brothers, the foundation is still there, and the level of the filmed film should be good.

Li Tianbao also asked: "Dad, what kind of movie are you making?" Don't make those babbling and singing movies, they don't look good at all! ”

"Those movies weren't made at the Great Wall." Li Tang corrected Tianbao's mistake, took a bite of food, and then said: "This time I want to make a martial arts movie, and when it will be filmed, it has not yet been decided." ”

"It's still undecided, what are you going to do when you go back." Aunt Liu had a lot of resentment about Li Zhengdong's work, and spared no effort to crack down: "Hang there and drink the wind?" ”

"It's been chaotic for so long, it always takes time to get back to normal." Li Tang can see it, "The director has already decided, it is Zhang Xinyan, he told me that this time he may have to go back to the mainland to shoot exterior scenes, let me go back to the factory after the Spring Festival, and first clean up the props, I haven't started work for several years, and many things in the past can't be used." ”

Aunt Liu said nervously: "The mainland is so chaotic, will it be dangerous to go back?" ”

"What danger can there be......

Aunt Liu and Uncle Li were arguing, and Shen Chong was thinking about it on the side, with a lot of thoughts.

Produced by the Great Wall, directed by Zhang Xinyan, martial arts films, filmed in the mainland, several factors combined, if you guess correctly, the movie Li Tang said should be "The Legend of the White Witch".

Shen Chong can remember it so clearly, first, this movie has a special significance, it is a sign that Hong Kong leftist film companies are back on track after the buzz.

The second is that when this movie was filmed in Huangshan, he was received by Deng Gong and took a group photo with the main creators, which was a sensation.

There is a lot to be done in this, and Shen Chong instantly made up his mind that he had to blend in with the crew.

Hollywood has the backing of the North American film market, and it is invincible first, so it can sweep the world, Hong Kong wants to challenge it, and must have a solid rear box office, Southeast Asia is too small, only the mainland with a large population can take on this important task, and the sooner the mainland opens up to Hong Kong films, the more beneficial it will be to Shen Chong's future plans.

Under China's unique political system, if you want to open up the mainland film market, taking the high-level route is the only opportunity, and the leader's words are worth ten years' work, but how to contact and persuade the senior leaders to accept his ideas as a young man in Hong Kong is a difficult task comparable to leading the national football team to win the World Cup.

Moreover, given the complexity of the environment in the interior, it may not be possible to accomplish it without 10 or 8 years of effort, and this is a protracted war, and it is impossible to accomplish it in one battle.

In the future, let's talk about it later, follow the crew, and get acquainted with the great man first, there is always a good and no disadvantage.
