Chapter 60: Consortium X

"Happy New Year"

"Happy New Year"

Eight cups clinked together to congratulate each other on the New Year.

At their home in Mid-Levels, Aunt Liu and Zhao Anping cooperated to make a family banquet of Sichuan cuisine and Garu cuisine, and the two families got together and spent Chinese New Year's Eve together.

"Sister, brother-in-law, red envelopes, red envelopes."

"I haven't worshiped the New Year, I don't want to say congratulations, I want a red envelope?" Shen Chong smiled and patted her little hand and said, "First give New Year's greetings to the elders, and come one by one." ”

"Tianbao, sit down and eat, don't mess around." Aunt Liu glared at Tianbao and said to Zhao Anping: "This is my family's mischievous essence, and it is not safe at all." ”

"Children, you have to be lively, lively means energetic and in good health." Zhao Anping smiled and took out a big red paper bag and said, "Come to Tianbao, this is the red envelope for me and your aunt, give it to you first." ”

"It's better to be an uncle." Tianbao relied on the fact that Chinese New Year's Eve night was a festive day that was neither big nor small, ignoring Aunt Liu's eyes, jumped out of his seat, ran over to take the red envelope, and then bowed, and said a bunch of congratulatory words with a smile: "Uncle, aunt, good luck in the New Year, good health, happy family, and wide financial resources......"

"It's so cute." Jane touched her head and said in English, "As cute as Lily when she was a child."

Lily also took out a beautiful red envelope and gave it to Tianbao, Aunt Liu pushed and gave it across the table, and said, "There is no such rule, there is no such rule, Lily quickly put it away." ”

"Auntie, I'm in the United States, and I can't send it if I want to." Lily said with a smile: "It's the first time this year to celebrate the festival in Hong Kong, so it's auspicious, Tianbao, take it." ”

"Don't worry about it, it's a big holiday, let the children make trouble, it's festive enough." Li Tang said a word to Aunt Liu, then raised his glass with a smile on his face and said, "Come, Anping, let's have a drink, we haven't drunk together for more than 20 years." ”

"yes, more than twenty years." Zhao Anping touched him and said with emotion: "I remember the last time I drank wine, I still stole it from under my brother-in-law'......s bed behind my sister's back."

The older generation talked about the past, and the younger generation looked forward to the future, and after Lily and Sister Li Kaiyuan chatted for a while, they asked Shen Chong, "What is Beijing like?" Is it fun? ”

"I can't tell, I'll know what it's like when you go." Shen Chong put down his glass and said: "Beijing is a great city, in everyone's eyes, it is different, you will know it when you go, it is colorful, strange, like a kaleidoscope." ”

"Brother-in-law, I'm going to Beijing too"

"Your brother-in-law, they are going to do serious things, what are you going to do." Aunt Liu slapped the forgetful Tianbao and said, "Be at home obediently and go to school well." ”

This time, Zhao Anping's family will also follow Shen Chong and Li Kaiyuan to Beijing, he is a patriotic overseas Chinese who has been in the official newspaper, and is a shield for Shen Chong to engage in black-box operations, while Jane and Lily are traveling, and they are full of curiosity about Beijing.

"Alan." Lily skillfully picked up a piece of fish meat with chopsticks, carefully picking at the bones, and asked, "The last travel tape I recorded in Los Angeles was really shown on TV?" ”

"yes." Shen Chong said with a smile: "There is an urgent shortage of English professionals in the mainland, and they use your day trip to Los Angeles as a teaching material, not only on the TV station, but also take out the sentences and print them into textbooks as a teaching reference." ”

Lily's eyes widened, and she said in surprise: "I just recorded and played, and a lot of words were not rigorous, how could they be used as teaching materials, and why didn't they inform me?" ”

"The laws in the mainland are not perfect, there is no awareness of copyright, and it is not convenient to communicate between China and the United States." Shen Chong picked up the spoon, scooped the soup, and said: "The English textbooks in the mainland are still old goods from decades ago, many people can only write and not read, your accent is very standard, it is good to use it as an auxiliary teaching, and you are beautiful, and you are interesting, it is very popular after the broadcast, it has been rebroadcast three or four times, it is said that the TV station has received thousands of letters written to you, you go to Beijing this time, you have to prepare a big bag, so you can fit it." ”

"Really?"

"Absolutely." Shen Chong picked up a public spoon, scooped a bowl of soup, and said, "In Beijing, you are a superstar, as popular as Barbra Streisand in the United States. ”

Lily didn't believe it, she laughed and said, "Hearing you say that, I'm more curious about Beijing, and I'm really looking forward to going there soon." ”

"Your life is good." Shen Chong drank the soup and said: "When I went to Beijing last year, I took a green train, and it took two or three days to arrive, but this time I took a plane, and I transferred in Shanghai, and I could arrive in one day." ”

"Actually, I prefer to take the train." With a look of anticipation, Lily said, "You can see different scenery along the way. ”

"Put away your fantasies." Shen Chong shook his head and smiled bitterly, and said: "Traveling by train in the United States may be a pleasure, but taking a train in the mainland is a kind of purgatory-like torture. ”

"Why?"

"Because the car is slow, there are many people, and I like to carry large bags of luggage, I don't even have a place to stand, it's more crowded than sardines in cans, and I can lose at least a few pounds by sitting once." Zhao Anping heard their words and interjected: "Lili, listen to Ah Chong, don't try to take the train." ”

"Dad, you were in the forties, and it was a time of war." Lily said suspiciously: "It's 19Ru years now, the last time I went to Guangzhou, I took the train, except for a little taste in the carriage, everything else is very good." ”

"Lily, you're in a VIP car." Li Kaiyuan also persuaded her, frowned and said: "In the ordinary carriage, don't mention anything else, it's that kind of taste, it's really unbearable, I went to Beijing last time, and after sitting once, I didn't have the appetite to eat for two or three days, hey, don't mention this, I still feel disgusting when I think about it now." ”

"yes, don't mention it, anyway, this time it's a plane." Shen Chong beckoned: "Eat and eat, keep vigil tonight, eat more, don't be hungry then." ”

Going to Beijing during the Spring Festival is a plan that Shen Chong has already arranged, first, he has to finish some of the things he did last year; The second is to build a network of relationships in the mainland, during the Cultural Congress, many big bulls and potential parties who have met must take advantage of the moment of familiarity to move around more in order to maintain the relationship; Third, the Spring Festival has always been the best time to inquire about the news, where the reform and opening up, the situation in the mainland is unpredictable, and the communication between Beijing and Hong Kong is inconvenient. The fourth is to finalize the participants for the Academy Awards ceremony.

And this time I was able to take a plane to go, thanks to the relationship between the princelings who came to Hong Kong half for investigation and half tourism, and got a few plane tickets, you must know that in the mainland in 19Ru, air tickets are extremely rare things, no matter how much money can buy.
