Out of the door of the dance theater, Li Niantian exhaled fiercely.

Yu Chen and Xia Jin waved goodbye to her happily, not affected by the fact that they couldn't enter the entertainment industry.

Li Niantian felt that it was not a taste in his heart.

She walked to the side of the car and bumped into Gu Yuheng head-on.

"Why are you here?" Li Niantian was startled, hurriedly opened the car door, stuffed people inside, and learned from Gu Yuheng, "On such a cold day, didn't I tell you to rest in the hospital for two days and not run outside?" Oh, what are you doing? ”

The difference in physical strength between men and women was brought into full play by Gu Yuheng, Gu Yuheng, who was already about to sit in the co-pilot, turned around, put her into the seat, and then threw the car door in a chic manner, and strode to the driver's seat.

"Brother...... This is my car ......" Li Niantian was speechless, but still obediently handed over the car keys.

Gu Yuheng's driving skills are very good, there are basically no bumps, and he enters the lane silkily.

"What's wrong? What's on your mind? Unable to hear her speak, Gu Yuheng turned his head, glanced at it, and made a judgment.

"How do you know?" Li Nian leaned to the ground, hugged his arms, and looked aimlessly at the endless traffic in front of the traffic light.

"Once you have something on your mind," Gu Yuheng hooked the corners of her lips, like a noble cat, "your eyes will be out of focus, you won't speak, and you won't like to move." ”

“……”

"Tell me about it?" Gu Yuheng took advantage of the traffic light to reach out a hand and squeeze her small fist shrunk into the cuff of her sweater, "Maybe I can give you an answer." ”

"I can't give an answer." Li Niantian told Gu Yuheng what the dean told her, "Actually, I've been thinking, where is the way out for the troupe?" ”

"Inside the system? Stable? But these are really not very attractive compared to the income of the entertainment industry. A star in the entertainment industry may earn so much in a lifetime for an actor in a troupe with an endorsement. ”

"The troupe is stable, but stable and poor, and it has to pay much more than those little idols."

"Many of our actors, especially female dancers, basically end their careers once they get married and have children, and even if they can return to their prenatal state, they are still a minority."

"I danced in the troupe for the youngest years and then returned to my family, or although I still work and dance in the troupe, it is difficult to make it again."

"The income of a few thousand yuan a month is actually a level that everyone can accept in the past."

"But now with the choice of the entertainment industry, in terms of talent flow, many young children would rather give up their dance foundation for more than ten years, and don't dance well at all.

"The teacher's consideration is also very reasonable, the children in the troupe, if they are not strong-willed, it is difficult to ensure that after entering the entertainment industry, they abandon their dance, and finally return to the troupe, and they are not even qualified for a group dance."

"Originally, Chinese dance was a very talented and hard-working dance, but now there are fewer and fewer children who dance seriously, and the troupe will be able to recruit good seedlings in the future to pass on Chinese dance."

"In terms of audience, the actors of the troupe and the little idols in the entertainment industry are still in different directions."

"The actors of the troupe speak with their dancing strength, and compared to idols, their contact with the audience is in the theater, they are on stage, and the audience is offstage."

"What they interpret is the characters in this play, and what they bring to the audience is also the behavioral logic of the characters in this play, and the stickiness between them and the audience is not too great."

"The same repertoire, I can watch you play it, and I can watch others play it, anyway, they are all actors from the National Dance Theater, and the level is about the same."

"And there is another problem, that is, if you want to stand up for the characters in the play, you have to have a long narrative, and the actors in the theater are hiding behind the characters in the play."

In just a few minutes, you may be able to use a dance to tell the mental journey of this period very clearly, and the audience only needs to spend a few minutes to see it clearly. In the current fast-paced life, such a large-scale performance of the troupe is indeed not very attractive to young people. ”

"So, it's a logical loop, you know?" Li Nian poured out three or four traffic lights, and when he stopped drinking water with a dry mouth, he asked Gu Yuheng.

"I think I probably do." Gu Yuheng stepped on the brakes, and while waiting for the green light to turn on, he took the mineral water bottle in his hand, helped her unscrew it and handed it to her, "Young actors are not attractive enough, resulting in lack of acceptance." ”

"I want to open up their popularity through the channels of the entertainment industry, but I am afraid that after they taste the way of making quick money in the entertainment industry, they will give up their efforts, resulting in fewer young dancers."

"However, adhering to the current model of 'the aroma of wine is not afraid of deep alleys', the troupe is unable to cater to the preferences of the audience and attract more audiences into the theater, resulting in a low income of the theater and a higher treatment for the actors."

As a result, more young dancers may no longer pursue theatre as their career direction. With less and less talent, there is a high risk that the quality of new theatre talent will decline, and the theatre and its young actors will become less competitive. ”

"Yes, yes, yes, yes!" Li Nian poured a mouthful of water and didn't have time to swallow it, and began to applaud Gu Yuheng's logic.

It's rare for an outsider to follow her train of thought so quickly after listening to her speaker.

The warm wind in the car blew the fine hair on her forehead, Li Niantian took off the scarf, folded it on her legs, pulled the hairballs hanging from the corners of the scarf, and remembered the conversation between Gu Yuheng and Gu Xiaotang that she accidentally overheard in the hospital a few months ago.

"I thought you would just say, double chin......" she muttered quietly.

"What?" happened to be a green light, Gu Yuheng didn't hear her turning her head to complain to the window.

"Nothing!"

Of course, Gu Yuheng can't know that she overhears this, otherwise where can the eldest young master's face go.

Li Niantian solemnly turned his head and promised, "Nothing!" ”

"Really?" Gu Yuheng was very skeptical, but he didn't ask anymore.

"But......" Li Nian leaned closer and closer, the tip of his nose almost touching his ear, "You know this circle very well......

Then the tips of Gu Yuheng's ears became more and more red with the naked eye.

"Ahem......" Gu Yuheng coughed lightly, drove the car into the slow lane, and then freed her hand, pushed her back to the co-pilot and sat down, with no shock on her face, "After all, Xiaotang has always been in this circle, so he knows a little ......"

He said it very seriously, and it can be said that the reason is very convincing.

If it weren't for Li Niantian knowing, if he had only seen Gu Xiaotang's double chin coming out for so many years in Gu Xiaotang's circle, maybe he would have really been fooled by him.

Li Nian leaned his elbows on the armrest box between the two seats, held his chin, and watched the delicate pinna gradually dyed the color of coral beads.

"Brother ......," she said softly, "can you give me an answer?" ”

City roads are full of traffic during the evening rush hour.

Gu Yuheng drove into the parking lot of the Gu family, and finally said a word-

"You're going to be the top performer."

This sentence has been haunting Li Niantian for the next few days.

You have to be the top class, in order to have more say.

Also because, the rules are in the hands of the strong.

The next day was the day when the Gu family's grandparents were buried.

The old couple have been in love all their lives, and in the end, they also chose to be buried together.

The funeral was not grand, Gu Xiaotang greeted all the cooperative media, and he was not allowed to come over for interviews today, so there were no big news reporters carrying equipment to make the funeral home impassable.

Even a few disobedient small media outlets could only be stopped by the Gu family's bodyguards, trying to peek through the cracks in the lush bushes.

At the door of the Water Cloud Hall is a three-meter-long table covered with delicate French lace, which is used to store the daisies that have just been picked from the flower shed in the back mountain this morning and are still with dewdrops.

The funeral parlor is very elegant, even if it is the Shuiyun Hall used to mourn people coming and going, it is also snow-white. The high dome reverberates with the sound of an accordion, and strings of feathered wind chimes fall down and move in the wind.

A layer of wreaths was placed on the side of the wall, and two streamers crept down from a high place, and the dragon and snake were written on it, writing the thoughts and condolences to the two old men.

The condolence words are very short, and they do not write the glorious and frank life of the second elder.

A self-made young man, and a lady who has accompanied poetry, books, rituals and music, how to spend their lives together in that turbulent/chaotic era.

The young businessman has been up and down for decades, from nothing to rich Taobai.

His fame is just to fulfill his promise to marry a young lady who used to be well-dressed and well-fed.

It doesn't matter so much whether the world remembers it or not.

Li Niantian followed behind Gu Yuheng, followed the melody of the accordion, and slowly turned to the mourning hall.

The coffin is nothing special, the difference is only inside the coffin.

Instead of the usual daisies, a large bouquet of bright red roses.

The old man lay peacefully in the coffin, his face was peaceful, his eyebrows had been carefully drawn, and even his sideburns were meticulously combed.

The skin that had already seen the wind and frost was lined with red roses, as if it were alive.

The two hands are clasped in the flowers, and the ten fingers are interlocked.

No one can separate them anymore.

By the time of the burial, the irrelevant people were almost gone. The cemetery is selected in a grass bush by the mountains and rivers, with a wide field of vision, and on the marble tombstone of the cooperation, the first set of wedding photos taken by the two when they were young are placed.

It's been a long time, and the pixels aren't very sharp.

The grandmother with a lace veil snuggled in the arms of her grandfather in a tunic suit, looking at each other and feeling a friendship.

"Grandparents," there was a drizzle in the sky, Gu Yuheng held an umbrella, and under the umbrella stood two people, him and Li Niantian, "I'll send you here today." ”

"Pour out and say, you have become stars, the sea of stars, you go to see it for us first. Yesterday we watched "Dream Travel", and I was right, as long as I remember that candle, even if it goes out one day, it will always be in my life. ”

"Everything is fine at home, and my parents have accepted this fact, they will guard this business empire that you have built, and they will be as loving and loving as you, you can rest assured."

"Xiaotang and Haoyu are also very good, and when your mourning period is over, I will start to help them prepare for the wedding."

"There is only one last wish left in your lifetime."

The hand that didn't hold the umbrella held Li Nian's hand in the crook of his arm, and a simple bracelet on his wrist was circulating.

"That pair of bracelets, I have already given them to Tilt, grandma is right, I should have expressed my heart to her earlier, maybe I don't have to waste so many years, let you worry about my marriage every day."

Gu Yuheng recalled it and smiled helplessly, "I'm sorry, I didn't let you see this scene at the end......"

His voice was low.

Li Nian leaned over his hand and pressed slightly.

Gu Yuheng lowered his head and smiled lightly at her.

In the rain, two black butterflies came and landed on their shoulders.

"It's grandparents." Li Nian tugged Gu Yuheng's hand and whispered to Gu Yuheng.

Gu Yuheng nodded, "Hmm." ”

*

Back at the Gu family, Xiang Haoyu had already arrived one step ahead of them.

After all, Gu Xiaotang has not seen so many deaths like Gu Yuheng, and now he is still a little out of energy, leaning on the sofa like a sleepy cat.

"If you're not feeling well, go to the bedroom and sleep for a while?" Li Nian leaned forward and patted her shoulder, rubbing her eyes that cried into little walnuts in distress, "I'll go boil an egg, and I'll give you a hot compress to reduce the swelling later." ”

"I'm fine." Gu Xiaotang sat up straight and pulled her next to him, "I'll talk about the egg later, let's talk about you and the dog man first." ”

Su Jingqian?

Li Niantian really didn't want to use things about this person to block people at such a time.

Gu Xiaotang hugged Li Niantian's arm, leaned on Li Niantian's body, and pushed Xiang Haoyu, "Say it quickly." ”

Xiang Haoyu had fallen out of favor from the moment Li Niantian approached. Fortunately, he got used to it, and he took out the agreement that had entered the final procedure, "Then let's make a long story short." ”

"Since the two of you have not agreed that the marital property shall be owned by the husband and wife separately, the marital property of the two of you shall be jointly owned. In other words, no matter how much, there is a certain loss for Nian Tilt. ”

"I'm ......" Gu Xiaotang "chua" for a moment, "Why divide him?" He didn't do anything but himself back then, and he did so many things, and he still had to give it to him?! No way! Don't give! ”

"This ......" Xiang Haoyu pondered for a moment, "because he cheated in marriage and caused his body to be in Shanghai by violent means, and he was at fault, I can only try my best to let him divide the property less, but judging from the past judicial precedents, it ......"

"Can you not give a cent?" Gu Xiaotang's eyes were shining, and he looked at Xiang Haoyu adoringly.

"......" Xiang Haoyu was silent for two seconds, "I am a lawyer, not Wang Ba in the wishing pool." ”

The light of adoration in Gu Xiaotang's eyes was extinguished, "Then why don't you go and lie on your stomach in the wishing pool." ”

Xiang Haoyu: "......"

Li Nian held back a smile and patted Gu Xiaotang's head, "People must have a legal basis." ”

"Okay......" Gu Xiaotang hugged Li Niantian's arm again.

"Then he said," Xiang Haoyu handed her the list in his hand, "This is a list of the division of property between the two of you." ”

Li Nian took it, but he didn't care much about anything else, just rummaging through the belongings of Jing Nian.

But I saw the word "pending" in the remarks column at the back.

"What does that mean?"

"It will take about a month," Xiang Haoyu tried to explain to her in plain language, "because Jingnian Company is a limited liability company, and a limited liability company has a human nature, so its equity transfer is not as convenient as that of a company limited by shares." ”

"Although you invested in the establishment of this company back then, after several rounds of financing in the middle, many other shareholders were added, and the equity of the two of you is all recorded in Su Jingqian's name."

"Based on the human compatibility just mentioned, the equity transfer of a limited liability company requires a pre-procedure, and the scientific name is the right of first refusal."

"To put it simply, within this month, if the other shareholders do not propose to buy the equity transferred between the two of you, then all these shares will be in your name, and you will register as the new controlling shareholder of Jingnian Company."

"In other words, if someone in the middle disagrees, maybe something will go wrong?" Li Nian groaned.

"In theory, it is." Xiang Haoyu smiled, "But judging from the strength of other shareholders, the possibility is very small." ”

"What do you mean?"

"I don't know if this is Su Jingqian's intention, I checked the accounting annual reports of other shareholders in recent years, and from their cash flow, none of them can come up with so much money at one time in just one month to buy all the shares under Su Jingqian's name."

"He is very smart, he has never been able to raise a person who can match him, and the people who hold the equity of Jingnian Company are some shrimp soldiers and crab generals."

"It can be seen that Su Jingqian has a very strong control over this company, and these shareholders are just brought in by him to provide him with funds, and they don't have much decision-making power."

"It's really in line with his character." After Li Nian listened, he was not surprised, "Using people to the extreme, you can't pose any threat to him." ”

"Being smart is being mistaken by being smart." Gu Xiaotang was angry with Xiang Haoyu's sentence of "very smart", and couldn't help but say viciously, "I don't usually be a person, but I didn't expect it, it really came to the last moment, and there was no one who could help." ”

"Maybe this is the righteous and the unjust?" Xiang Haoyu said, "But we still have to pay close attention to the dynamics of other shareholders, and do you want to kill a dark horse in the middle?" ”

Xiang Haoyu chatted with them for a while.

When it was getting dark, he got up and took his leave.

The Gu family's parents and three children, the five of them had a reunion dinner, and there was no shortage of Gu family's parents who took matters into their own hands and pierced their son's cold masks.

After the ups and downs of the past few days, Gu Yuheng has relaxed a lot now, but every time this kind of debunking still makes him uncomfortable, he only cares about himself and fights with the dishes on the plate.

"Yuheng, don't just eat by yourself," Gu Qian called his son anxiously, "At such an age, I don't know ......"

The four words "Tao takes care of people" swallowed back into his stomach after watching a piece of fish meat with the words removed fly from Gu Yuheng's plate to the small dish in front of Li Niantian.

Gu Qian and Mrs. Gu looked at each other and smiled.

After eating, several people tacitly left the space to the little couple.

The two of them didn't go to the glass house outside, and nestled on the sofa.

Velvet was a little sticky spirit with a dead face, and he didn't feel that he was in the way, so he jumped on the sofa and lay between the two of them like a child.

Warm and baked.

Gu Yuheng had long been "domesticated" by the velvet, forgetting the habit of cleanliness, and the slender fingers of the bones played with the pink ears of the velvet.

Neither of them spoke, just listened to Velvet's irregular breathing when she was excited.

Later, Li Niantian couldn't help but speak.

"Gu Yuheng."

"Huh?"

"Can you tell me what you like about me?"
