Chapter 57: White Daddy and White Mom (2-in-1 Chapter)
On January 23, 1923, the American Osborne and the Chinese Zeng Jun founded the China Radio Company, which broadcast radio programs in Shanghai for the first time through their self-built radio stations, and sold radios at the same time. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
There are more than 500 radios in the city to receive the radio program, which is the first batch of radios in Shanghai and the first in the country. Later, with the continuous establishment of radio stations, radios gradually emerged in Shanghai, all of which were imported products, with the United States producing the most, and its types were ore radios and tube radios, and the public liked to use ore radios.
Before the popularization of television, radio is undoubtedly the most important entertainment tool for human beings, and now the vast majority of China's post-80s generation have the memory of listening to the radio when they were children, but with the development of the times, first the popularization of television, and then the promotion of computers and the Internet, the status of radio has naturally deteriorated, and even has reached an extremely embarrassing point.
For example, there is such a tacit understanding in the news industry, a press conference, if the reporter from the TV station does not come, then wait, wait until the people come and set up the camera before starting, if the reporter from the newspaper industry does not come, then wait another hour, if it does not come, let's start, and if the reporter of the radio news program does not come, what, who do you say did not come?
Nowadays, radio, also known as radio programs, can be roughly divided into two categories of people in China: students and drivers;
In the early years, in fact, there were migrant workers in the third category, but now most of the construction site workers' dormitories are also equipped with routers covered with WIFI, and the migrant worker brothers holding smartphones no longer need to rely on radio programs to pass the boring time, and for students and drivers, the radio just fits the characteristics of their work and life, and therefore, many radio programs are now basically inserted into the real-time traffic information of the local city, and they themselves know what kind of people are listening to their own programs nowγ
............
"Okay, listeners and friends, today, our "Golden Melody Years" program is over here, welcome everyone to listen to our program tonight, tomorrow, we are FM 92.9 Nantong Music Traffic Radio, see you or leave. β
The operator on the opposite side of the glass cut into the advertisement, and made an "OK" gesture to the female announcer inside, the female announcer smiled knowingly, took off her headset, and then gently pinched her wrist, sitting for so long, it was indeed a little sore.
Nowadays, the job of being a radio host has gradually degenerated from the iron rice bowl and glamorous appearance that everyone envied ten or twenty years ago into a kind of perseverance, just as people used to knit straw shoes for home wear and take out to sell, and now they are regarded as a kind of art, radio hosts have gradually begun to change in this direction.
Nowadays, in fact, many famous hosts of many stations have been engaged in broadcasting and radio hosting work if they check their resumes, but when the size of this big ship begins to gradually decrease, many people have to choose to change jobs and replan their life routes.
"Sister Liu, supper. β
As soon as the hostess walked out of the studio, the man who had just gestured to her immediately brought out a wonton, obviously a takeaway ordered in time, and the wonton was still hot and did not swell.
"I said Chen De, you can't be so partial, what about mine?" the female assistant on the side shouted with some dissatisfaction, "You are treating us differently, which is not conducive to our unity work." The female assistant stared at the young man named Chen De with a playful look, but she was not very angry.
After all, although the female anchor surnamed Liu is over thirty years old, she is well maintained, and her skin is more tender than that of a twenty-year-old girl, and her kind of cold temperament is also fascinating, even the female assistant herself admits that even if she is a woman, she has some uncontrollable associations with Sister Liu, and even doubted her true orientation for a while.
As for Chen De, who is a young man, in the face of such a big beauty, he naturally can't hold it, and it has only been less than a month since he was assigned here, and he has begun to be attentive non-stop, and he is also a woman, and the female assistant found that she couldn't be jealous, probably because she was too good.
"Come, Xiaofang, give you food. β
Sister Liu handed the wontons in her hand to her female assistant Xiaofang.
Xiao Fang was a little embarrassed and said, "What is this, this is Chen De's intention, just now I almost cut the wrong takeaway advertisement in order to pinch the time." β
"You eat, I like to eat shouhou, I don't like small wontons very much. Sister Liu put the wontons on Xiaofang's table, and then removed her coat from the hanger on one side.
Nantong is a coastal city, even if it is already summer, but it is still quite cool at night when I go home after the late-night program.
"Copying hands? Chen De didn't mind that the wontons he bought were cheaper than Xiaofang, he actually knew that it was impossible for him to be with Sister Liu, on the one hand, Sister Liu's consistent cold temperament made it difficult for him to give birth to that kind of voyeuristic heart, and Sister Liu was not the kind of empty and lonely woman, even if she wanted to be a tender grass and go to others, she was still not interested in it at all.
But men are sometimes so cheap, knowing that two people can't have the slightest development and possibility, but they still can't help but be nice to her.
Sister Liu is not young, although she can't guess her exact age if she is properly maintained, she can also feel that she should be the age of motherhood, for Chen De's thoughts about herself, Sister Liu can naturally afford to put it down and grasp the proportions, this is the wisdom of being a woman, to be exact, it is the wisdom needed as a beautiful and attractive woman.
When I walked out of the door of the radio station, Tiangong was a little unpleasant, and it rained slightly, which added a little to the coolness of the night.
There are two barbecue stalls not far from the left turn at the door, there is no storefront, it is a mobile stall, in fact, doing this kind of business, making a lot of money, the things sold on the barbecue stall can be wholesaled, and the wholesale price is not expensive, the barbecue utensils are also one-time purchase of long-term things, the cost has already been recovered, plus there is no need for store fees;
And as long as you know some rules and consciously clean up the neighborhood when you come out to set up a stall at night, there will rarely be a city management or the like to find trouble, that is, people will be more tired, of course, people living in this world is a very tiring thing.
Sister Liu carried her bag and walked to a stall, the stall was taken care of by a husband and wife, plus a brother-in-law as a helper, the business was tepid, and people sat for a small half, but the night was still long, which was already good.
"It's the same as the old three. Sister Liu said with a smile to the proprietress .
"Yes, you sit. The proprietress first took the initiative to take a rag and wiped a table that had been wiped next to her, and asked Sister Liu to sit here, generally because Sister Liu is an old customer, and the proprietress knows that she is a person from the radio station, so she is extraordinarily polite, of course, and the most important point is that the proprietress and her husband are the same as Sister Liu, they are all Sichuanese.
Once people leave their hometowns, they feel that the dialect is kind.
After Sister Liu sat down, the proprietress personally gave Sister Liu to cook brain flowers, originally the boss lady's barbecue stall did not sell brain flowers, but because Sister Liu likes to eat, so the proprietress also prepared some every day, which can be regarded as everyone making a friend.
Nantong people like to eat brain flowers are not much, or in other words, people in the coastal areas of Jiangsu and Zhejiang are not many good mouthfuls, plus duck intestines and goose intestines, there are very few people who like to eat, but these are indeed the delicacies that Sichuan people love very much, and Sichuan people naturally have their own methods to remove the fishy smell of these foods and make them delicious.
A few of the people at the next table who got together to eat barbecue couldn't help but glance at Sister Liu, probably thinking that the probability of meeting such a beautiful woman at the barbecue stall in the middle of the night was indeed too low and too low, and they evaluated Sister Liu's appearance in dialect with each other, some of them were indeed a little unbearable, but they felt that they were talking about the southern call, and they thought that Sister Liu, who had just communicated with the proprietress in Trump, could not understand it, and the language barrier would naturally not be embarrassing, and the Nantong dialect was indeed the most difficult to understand in the national dialect systemγ
Sister Liu understood, but she didn't care, and even a few young people opposite used her body to talk about meat jokes, but she didn't even move her eyebrows.
Since you live in this world, you have to enjoy the good side of this world, but you also need to get used to the dirty and disgusting things in this world.
Fortunately, the brain flower, the hand, and a bowl of steamed vegetables have been served, and with food, you can temporarily distract yourself.
The proprietress served Sister Liu a bowl of rice, and then went to work on her own business.
Sister Liu eats quietly alone, which may be the most relaxing moment of her day.
The proprietress is also a sensual person, usually if she is not busy at night, she always likes to sit next to Sister Liu and put a dragon gate array with Sister Liu, and the most talked about is nothing more than her own pair of children, the couple came out to work to make money, and a pair of children stayed in Sichuan to go to middle school, so they were naturally very concerned.
The world's impression of Sichuan women is mostly hot, but in fact, Sichuan women are actually the most family-oriented, and their sense of responsibility and dedication to the family is also very strong, which can be most clearly presented in the boss's wife.
The proprietress also asked Sister Liu if she had any children of her own, because the proprietress was not sure that even if Sister Liu was an urban white-collar worker at an age, there seemed to be many people who didn't want children.
Passing on the family and inheriting the incense is no longer a mission but a constraint for modern urbanites.
Sister Liu replied once, as if she was pondering for a while, and replied, "Yes." β
It is indeed a very strange thing to have children and need to answer with question sentences, but the proprietress automatically made up that Sister Liu may have been divorced before, and the child is with the man.
The hand is very refreshing, the soup is also very delicious, the brain flowers are tender and smooth, and the vegetables are also very delicious.
Just like Chinese go to the United States to open a restaurant, the taste of Chinese food in the restaurant will become very strange in order to deliberately cater to American tastes, although the proprietress and husband are authentic Sichuanese, but the barbecue and night snacks they usually sell can not be regarded as authentic Sichuan flavors, because most of the locals are not used to eating, even if the sign posted in front of the grill of the food truck is "Old Chengdu Barbecue".
Especially the plate of millet spicy and a plate of kimchi in front of Sister Liu, the locals will not ask the boss for these when they eat supper, but these are essential things in restaurants in Sichuan.
Before the food was finished, Sister Liu's mobile phone rang, there was no remarked number but it was not unfamiliar, because Sister Liu's mobile phone was not used much, she rarely played with her mobile phone, and there was no one in the address book, which was very inconsistent with the current mobile phone usage habits, but it did not hinder Sister Liu's life.
Sister Liu answered the phone, and a man's voice came from the phone:
"I'll pick you up after work. β
Sister Liu answered, and then hung up the phone, a man drove out late at night to pick up a woman who got off the night shift, according to normal logic, the relationship between the two should be very close, but judging from the tone of the man's speech and Sister Liu's response, it seems that the relationship between the two is very cold.
When Sister Liu felt that she had eaten well, a very ordinary Volkswagen happened to drive over and stopped on the side of the road, and there was a man wearing black short sleeves sitting in the car, and the man was holding a mobile phone in his hand and a mobile phone was fixed in front of him, which was the usual match of the current Didi master.
Although in recent years, because Didi has beaten the rest of its competitors to start a monopoly, the benefits at the beginning have been almost cut, but these drivers have no other choice.
"The conscience of the capitalists......"
Sister Liu heard this sentence more than once from the middle-aged man in the car.
Sister Liu settled the account and got into the car, but did not sit in the passenger seat, but sat in the back, obviously, this is an attitude, but also a distance, if it is an ordinary man who comes out in the middle of the night to pick up a woman who gets off the night shift, if this woman is still unwilling to sit in the passenger seat and deliberately alienate herself, it is estimated that she will not be interested in the next few days, in this impetuous era, who is more sincere than whom?
But this man has become a habit to pick her up,
In other words, picking her up regularly every day is already a part of his life.
"Before the monopoly, capital is beautiful, but after monopoly, it becomes an exploiter. The man turned off the Didi software in a mobile phone, obviously, he picked up the woman back tonight, and he was off work.
Sister Liu didn't pay attention to this man, although this man has been talking less and less, but Sister Liu is no longer interested in talking more with him.
There is a word on the back of the front seat of the car, and a painting is pasted on the other, both of which are new, because Sister Liu knows that this man will write a word and draw a picture every day, and then stick it on the front seat.
When driving during the day, if a passenger knows how to appreciate, then you can talk to him more, if you don't understand the appreciation, then there is no need to talk.
Sister Liu remembered that she had the impression that this man talked a lot, but he spoke very little when writing and painting, as if he was immersed in his own world.
But now, it seems to be all over the place.
He is also old, although he can't be seen from the outside.
But life is only a hundred years, the ancients said that thirty and forty do not confuse fifty and know the destiny of heaven, and they all know the age of destiny, ordinary people can become much more free and indifferent at this age, not to mention that this man's experience is much richer than ordinary people.
The man started the car, Nantong is a city that is not very congested, and it is naturally more comfortable to drive on the road at night.
Sister Liu leaned lightly against the car door and glanced at the not-so-gorgeous neon outside, which was a quiet city, which was why she chose to settle down in this city.
The city is close to Shanghai, although in terms of size, it is not appropriate to call it a satellite city of Shanghai, but after all, because it is adjacent to Shanghai and Shanghai is only separated by a Sutong Bridge, it seems that it has been absorbed by the bustling Shanghai to absorb the hustle and bustle of the city that should belong to it, in comparison, Chengdu is a mainland city, but in terms of congestion and hustle, it is much more serious than Nantong on the eastern coast.
The car entered the main road, and then went up to the Elevated Jianghai Avenue, and the man driving played a song, the song is called "Si γ²γ§", which is the theme song of a Japanese TV series called "Late Night Canteen", the tune is very serene, suitable for listening to at night when it is quiet. A while ago, the domestic flop also flopped this Japanese TV series, but the exaggeration and frivolity ran through it, completely losing the flavor of the original Japanese TV series.
Sister Liu let out a sigh, as if, she and his youth and impulsiveness have also passed away, when you lose something, you guess you will miss it more and more, when you are tired of playing with something, you will regret your previous lack of moderation.
Unfortunately, there are many times in life that there is no turning back.
After a long time, the car got off Jianghai Avenue and turned into the auxiliary road.
Sister Liu does not live in Nantong City, but lives in Xingren Town in the suburbs, the two of them bought a house in the town called Renhe Home, the reason for settling there is not that the housing prices in the city are too expensive, but because the two of them seem to prefer to drive out at this time of the night to take a break, and if they live in the city, just to go out for a drive for a leisure, but lose a kind of atmosphere on the way home from work, a ridiculous reason, but the two of them accepted at the same time.
"It's a good thing we didn't buy the neighborhood in the first place. β
Passing by a neighborhood, the man stretched out his finger.
It's a very ordinary community, but it looks like it's just been built in the past few years, and it doesn't seem to be very popular.
"A group of Shanghainese specially came here to buy a house, and then did not live in the living, and specially put an urn as a mourning hall. The man shook his head and said, "There are probably not as many living people living in this building as there are dead people, alas." β
Sister Liu didn't care about the fact that there were more people living in the house than the mourning hall in the building, what she cared about was that this man would pay attention to this matter and tell her about it as an anecdote.
The man didn't seem to care about Sister Liu's opinion, he just continued to talk to himself, because after the two went home, they basically stopped communicating and went back to their respective rooms.
"The price of the cemetery over there has also been speculated, and a better cemetery is also hundreds of thousands, so it is better to really buy a suite in the suburbs of the nearby city as a mourning hall. β
Sister Liu closed her eyes slightly, but unfortunately, she couldn't rest for long, because soon the car turned into the community where she lived, and the man stopped the car.
Sister Liu also got out of the car, and then the man locked the car.
The two stopped talking and went upstairs silently, the man opened the door, Sister Liu entered his room, and the man entered his own room.
Living under the same roof, it seems that they belong to two worlds, but in fact, they are really the same kind of people.
After taking a shower in the bathroom in the room, Sister Liu did not blow her hair, but let her wet hair stick to her shoulders and slowly sat down on the edge of the bed.
The furnishings in the room are very simple, there is not even a TV or dresser, and there is not even a router at home.
Ordinary entertainment projects have long lost their attraction for them, and what can really attract them is the essence of life.
Because that's how they feel,
I'm still alive.
Lonely?
It's not lonely, it's not lonely.
In terms of life and society, they are two very insignificant people, and in terms of their life path, they are also very insignificant two people, because on this road, it seems that only the two of them are still moving forward.
Once upon a time, they had companions,
But some people gave up, some people left, and leaving, probably means that even if they look back, they still can't see the familiar figure, perhaps, at the beginning, they can still feel a little lonely, but slowly, when there are only two of them around, they silently accept this reality.
Probably, at this time, there are many people who have joined or are ready to join this path, but they have gone too far and too far, many people are looking at them, many pairs of eyes are staring at them,
Because they have gone far, the people behind them expect to see an answer from them.
But in fact, there is no answer.
Because of this path, there is no choice.
There was a radio on Sister Liu's bedside table, and she looked at the time, it was almost time, and Sister Liu turned on the radio.
"Welcome to the "Midnight Horror Story Program", I am the host of the show, Sun Ran, and the name of the story I bring to you today is ............"
After listening to this paragraph, Sister Liu pressed the radio and asked it to stop playing.
seem
This long night,
This boring life,
This unchanging life,
I can only rely on the beginning of this midnight ghost story show to make my soul instinctively throb a little.
