321 Chinese New Year
"Going abroad?"
Wu Ping and Shen Lingyun were a little surprised when they learned about their son's wedding plan.
Shen Yize nodded: "Yes, first run a Western-style event abroad, and then come back to do Chinese-style." ”
"Then your dad and I are still going abroad?"
"That must be, relatives can not be invited, and both parents cannot be absent."
Shen Lingyun asked coldly: "Which country?" ”
"England."
Dad hates some countries, Shen Yize knows, of course he won't step on thunder.
"Dad, when the time comes, you can play with my mother in the UK for a few more days, and I will reimburse all expenses."
Before Shen Lingyun could say anything, Wu Ping had already shaken his head into a rattle: "No, no, no, your father and I are a lot older, so I won't toss." ”
Yang Jiuan said with a smile: "Age is not a problem, my mother loves to travel the most, and after retirement, she has to go abroad almost every month." ”
"That's different, your mother can speak English, your uncle and I can't even speak Mandarin well, and we were thrown abroad, that's really a black eye, not to mention travel, and I can't even find the north."
Shen Yize said: "It's okay, I can find you a private tour guide." ”
Because the interval between the two weddings is very short, only one month, he and An An must come back as soon as possible to prepare, otherwise he will be a tour guide for his parents.
Wu Ping still disagreed: "Don't worry about these haves or not, the most important thing now is to get the wedding well, and then give birth to the child as soon as possible, and then have time to travel in the future." ”
Shen Yize did not agree with his mother's statement, the wedding should be done well, and the children will have it sooner or later, but when it is time to enjoy life, you must also enjoy it, and you can't be kidnapped by these things.
However, he also knew that his mother, like most parents, had a more traditional concept, so he didn't refute or explain, but just followed her words: "I know Mom, after the wedding, An An and I will take you out on a trip, how about it?" ”
"Let's talk about it. An An, when is your mother coming? ”
Wu Ping diverted the topic.
"The second year of junior high school."
"Is your dad coming?"
Yang Jiuan shook his head: "He's busy with work, so he can't come." ”
Work is on the one hand, on the other hand, Yang Qingwen is also ashamed to see Fang Qiong, instead of destroying the atmosphere, it is better to avoid it, including the last engagement, he was just in a hurry, and left after eating.
Shen Yize said: "Don't get in the way, Mom, even if you arrange it, I will inform my father-in-law." ”
Wu Ping "harmed": "You overestimate your mother, you want to hold an ancient wedding, how can I understand this?" I think your plan is very good, festive, atmospheric, and the etiquette in all aspects is also in place, just do what you think, Mom doesn't care about it this time. ”
My mother has always attached great importance to things like welcoming relatives and marrying, and even she is satisfied, which seems to be really good.
Shen Yize instructed: "Dad, Mom, you just know about this, the neighbors ask, don't go into too much detail, we won't invite you anyway." ”
Wu Ping immediately said, "Don't worry, I will take care of your father." ”
Shen Lingyun was suddenly unhappy: "What do you mean to take care of me?" I'm not going to preach it everywhere! ”
"You can get it, you, you love to blow every day, making others think that our family is rich, and you come to borrow money every once in a while."
"Nonsense, it's basically your friends who borrow money, what does it have to do with me?"
Mom and dad bicker every day.
On Chinese New Year's Eve, the Wu family gathered together, inevitably concerned about An Yi's marriage.
Shen Yize told the truth.
Xue Qin asked, "Have you chosen the best man and bridesmaid?" ”
"Someone has chosen, but it's not decided yet."
In Western-style weddings, the number of groomsmen and bridesmaids depends on the size of the wedding, generally no more than eight people, Shen Yize and Yang Jiuan do not plan to invite so many, only four people, three friends and one relative.
An An's bridesmaids are tentatively Xu Wenqian, He Ya, Qin Wandi and her little cousin Lin Shuxiang - three years have passed, the little cousin has already graduated from high school, and the last time she saw her at the engagement banquet, she has become a slim big girl.
The bridesmaids chose Xu Wenqian, and the best men naturally included Zhang Chunlin, in addition to Cai Youning and Ding Shijie. The last relative, because Shen Yize is the youngest in the Wu family, his cousins are married, and his nephew is a minor, so he found a cousin of the Shen family who has a good relationship, Shen Yiwen.
The groomsmen and bridesmaids are foreign products, and there is no such saying in Chinese weddings, but in Ming weddings, the bride and groom have their own deacons, and the tasks of the deacon are heavier than those of the groomsmen and bridesmaids.
The so-called fan ceremony is the etiquette of covering the face with a fan when a woman leaves the cabinet.
In ancient times, this ritual was usually placed after the grand ceremony, and the bride should hold a fan to cover her face when she visited the church and thanked the guests, until the ceremony was completed and the guests withdrew from the new house, and then showed their true faces to the husband, which is the so-called cave house.
The two of them simplified it on the basis of retaining the fan ceremony, and only used the deacon to fan their faces before the worship hall, and then they no longer practiced this ceremony, let alone a cave room or anything.
There are many more such traditional rituals, and An has also selectively retained some of them, but even those that have been preserved have been improved and simplified to achieve the purpose of using the past for the present.
"Oh, yes." Shen Yize suddenly remembered something, "Although it's a bit early to say this now, I still want to tell you the bottom in advance." ”
Seeing that everyone cast puzzled and curious eyes, he continued: "We are holding a Ming wedding, the venue we chose is the palace group of the Ming Dynasty, we will try to imitate the antique layout of the scene, and the guests are the same, we will prepare a set of Ming Hanfu for everyone, and everyone will wear it to attend, so that it will be more atmospheric." ”
"Everyone? What a big deal! Second cousin Wu Qiliang was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth, "How many people are you going to invite?" ”
"The site of the scenic spot is limited, so I can only invite the main relatives, maybe a hundred."
In fact, it's okay, an ordinary Hanfu is only a few hundred yuan, and the total is only tens of thousands of yuan, which is only a fraction compared with the venue fee.
"Are we going to send you the size, then?"
"Don't worry, we'll send out an invitation in a while, and the invitation will have a detailed description attached to it. You can also come to Jiangnan to personally select, we have signed a cooperation with 'Hanlu Silk', go at any time, just say that it is a guest of Anyi. ”
"Hanlu silk?" Xue Qin's eyes lit up, and he immediately became interested, "Then I have to pick and choose, I like the Hanfu in this store very much." Brother, if I fall in love with a particularly expensive one, will I be reimbursed? ”
Shen Yize didn't think twice: "Choose whatever you want, there is no limit." ”
The most expensive Hanfu of Hanlu Silk is only a hundred thousand, he believes that his cousin will not be so ruthless, if something misfortune happens, he has left a budget of 300 million, which is completely affordable.
"Love, love!" Xue Qin was excited, took her cousin-in-law's hand and said, "You will accompany me after the New Year, and I will choose one for you." ”
It turns out that most girls are willing to try Hanfu whenever they have the opportunity. As soon as Xue Qin mentioned it, the two cousins-in-law also immediately moved their minds, and persuaded Wu Qiming and Wu Qiliang in a few words, and finally the three families made an appointment to go to Jiangnan to try on clothes together after the New Year.
Shen Yize touched his chin, he didn't expect everyone to be so active, tens of thousands of specifiers can't be stopped, and his cousins and sisters-in-law can't choose hundreds of Hanfu for him, at least a few thousand.
It's not a big problem, as long as it's not hundreds of thousands per capita, it's a drop in the bucket for him.
His idea only lasted until the Spring Festival Gala was broadcast.
"? Did you sponsor the Spring Festival Gala? Two billion red envelopes?! ”
When Su Dongbinkou, the host of the Spring Festival Gala, broadcast an advertisement for enjoying a short video, the cousins were a little dumbfounded. Everyone knew that Shen Yize was rich, but they didn't expect to be so rich.
He quickly explained: "It's not sponsored by me, it's sponsored by the company." ”
The aunt said: "That's different, you are the boss, what is the difference between the company's sponsorship and your sponsorship?" ”
“……”
Shen Yize knew that he couldn't explain it clearly to his aunt, so he simply didn't explain.
Xue Qin smiled and said, "Niu, brother, it seems that we don't have to think about saving you money." ”
It's over, and these thousands of Hanfu may not be able to stop.
He thought so in his heart, and his tone was still light: "Don't save me, just choose the favorite, don't think about the price." ”
Wu Ping took out her mobile phone, opened the short video of Lexiang according to the host's instructions, and asked, "Can we also grab this red envelope?" ”
"Everybody can grab it."
"How to grab it?"
"You open the software, it will pop up an activity interface with the word Jifu, just click in."
"I clicked in, why didn't I?"
"It's not until now, it's 9 o'clock."
The elders are obviously more active in grabbing red envelopes, of course, positive is positive, and the real operation is to let young people help. In fact, everyone present is not short of this money, but grabbing red envelopes is not only for money, but also for a lively and festive time, and by the way, to test their luck.
"An An, you help my parents get it."
"Okay."
Yang Jiu'an gathered blessing characters for Wu Ping and Shen Lingyun, and Shen Yize helped other elders install machines.
The aunt asked: "Let's rob ourselves, will we have more points?" ”
"No, it's random, it's just a matter of luck."
2 billion seems like a lot, considering that the Spring Festival Gala has an audience of more than 1 billion, the average distribution to each person's head is less than two yuan, and there are also 66, 88, 2025 and other large red envelopes, the probability is one per million, which is about equal to a gimmick, in order to attract more people to participate.
The Wu family obviously doesn't have this kind of lucky star, but Yang Jiuan grabbed a red envelope of 66, and this little fortune fan was happy all night.
The husband scattered 2 billion, and the wife snatched back 66, and I don't know what to be happy about.
The aunt's family who opened a restaurant is also a businessman, and asked Shen Yize: "You spend so much money to sponsor the Spring Festival Gala, can you get back to your capital?" ”
There is no direct answer to this question, yes or no. Unlike other industries, in the Internet industry, it is difficult to quantify the income obtained from each investment of a company by revenue or a single indicator.
Just looking at the increase in traffic, it will undoubtedly pay off, and the effect is obvious. The daily activity of Lexiang short video is usually about 300 million, and during the Spring Festival Gala broadcast period, the number of active users within 4 hours exceeded 600 million, which directly doubled.
But how much of this traffic can stay, how sticky it can be, how long can the average daily usage time be, and whether the increased traffic can be monetized...... These need to be determined after long-term observation and follow-up operations, and it is not a simple sentence that can be concluded by returning to the original cost.
It's too troublesome to explain, Shen Yize thought for a while and said: "No matter whether you can get back to your original cost or not, at least the reputation is out, and the people of the whole country are happy, which is enough for a company." ”
"That's a good thing to say, there's a pattern!" Uncle gave a thumbs up, "Our private enterprises should take a long-term view, continue to innovate, care about people's livelihood, and become an important force in promoting economic and social development." ”
Uncle is worthy of being a former county party committee, although he has been retired for more than 10 years, he is far away from the rivers and lakes, and he can blurt out his speech at the forum of private entrepreneurs.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, I first went to the temple of Jiang Bodhisattva to offer incense, and then Shen Yize chartered a scene and invited everyone to take it to the movies.
"Charlotte's Troubles", although this movie is a small-budget film of less than 20 million, the preparation time is no less than that of a big production.
The main reason is that actors are difficult to find, there are too few excellent comedians in China, and Shen Yize's standards are very strict, there are many well-known actors who are willing to lower their prices to act, but they can't meet his standards, and there is no play for money.
Although there are many comedians in the Northeast, the flavor is too strong, and he sifted and sifted before finally selecting a team that satisfies him.
He had already seen the finished film, and the effect was very good, and there was constant laughter during the movie, and after leaving the cinema, everyone was full of praise.
The box office of "Charlotte's Troubles" easily exceeded 100 million on the first day, and the film schedule and attendance rate both crushed the same period.
Movie fans generally choose which movie to watch according to the director and cast, but this situation is slowly changing, and more and more people are finding that as long as it is a work with a golden point, whether it is an investor, producer or producer, it is likely to be a masterpiece that can be worth the ticket price.
Golden Pin production is gradually equating with Boutique, and this trend not only exists in cinema movies, music, dramas and variety shows, but also in the entire entertainment industry, especially in today's traffic and rampant idols, Golden Pin and its artists are undoubtedly a clear stream.
When false hype is popular, it becomes more and more valuable to persist and intentions, and when cutting vermicelli leeks becomes the norm, it is more rare to reflect not forgetting the original intention.
Everyone has a scale in their hearts, and now, this scale has a tendency.
In the second year of junior high school, An also took Fang Qiong to Jiangzhou.
Fang Qiong also heard about the wedding arrangements between the two for the first time, but unlike Wu Ping and Shen Lingyun's reactions, the mother-in-law was so excited that she clapped her hands: "Go to the UK to rent a church?" That's great! The wedding of your dreams! Absolutely unforgettable! ”
When I learned that I was going to hold a Ming wedding, I couldn't sit still: "The Ming wedding is a phoenix crown, right?" Do it in the palace of the Ming Dynasty?! My God, An'an, Mom is so happy, happy for you......"
Although the mother-in-law is more than half a year old, there is obviously still a little girl living in her heart, and it can be seen that she likes this romantic arrangement very much.
As a parent, there is no one who doesn't want her children to be good, especially Fang Qiong, to this day, she still feels sorry for not taking good care of An An back then.
At this time, when I learned about the wedding arrangements of the two, I knew that my daughter was luckier than her, and married a man who loved her and was willing to give everything for her, and I was sincerely happy for my daughter.
