I'm the director, I'm not bad

Chapter 127 125. The Cold War
In the sound of gobbling noodles...

"good to eat?"

"Yeah! It's delicious!"

Looking at his son who was smothering the noodles, Xu Daqiang, who had just cooked the noodles and was sweating on his forehead, raised his wine glass with a smile.

After taking a sip of the wine, he picked up two peanuts, and another chopsticks of the celery-based vegetables in his noodles.

People in Yanjing basically don't eat syrup.

Even Yang Mi didn't know what this thing was...

But indeed, Xu Xin had nagged more than once before, saying that he wanted to eat noodles.

When I was in my hometown, some people judged whether the housewife was clean or not, and whether the work was done quickly. Needless to say, just look at the slurry tank in her house in summer.

The summer sun in northern Shaanxi is too poisonous, poisonous and hot.

Although the temperature is not too hot, people are really prone to heatstroke.

So... Xu Xin doesn't know what other places are like, but in Xujiawan, almost every household will prepare a large tank of syrup in advance.

This thing is actually very simple to make, and the only raw material is celery.

Wash the celery and put it in warm water, then pour it into a bowl of syrupy primer, and marinate it for two days with the lid on.

But if the preservation is not good, or if someone's woman is doing the work, the oil film will easily appear on the slurry, or it will become moldy.

That means that this woman is not clean and useless.

will be looked down upon.

The Xu family brothers lost their mothers since they were young, but Xu Daqiang, who is a father, is also unwilling to let others look down on his own baby.

Every year, the tank of slurry water is clean, translucent and bright.

Not to mention the oil film, even the oil flowers are invisible.

No matter going to school or going home for dinner, there will always be a bottle of syrup waiting for the two brothers.

When I got home, I gulped down the sour syrup in one gulp, clearing away the heat and relieving the heat.

With these exquisite and clean craftsmanship, the man without a wife worked hard to pull the eldest into an adult, and the second from babbling to faltering... to being able to carry a schoolbag to and from school...

What kind of hardships there are, outsiders don't know.

Northwest men never express it.

The only thing he did was to act like when the family had no money.

In summer, use a tank of clear syrup made by yourself to bring the two sons named "home" and "father" a refreshing summer.

As far as Xu Xin was concerned, if he didn't have that bowl of syrup in summer, he would indeed lose his soul.

"dad."

"Ok?"

"It can be counted as eating, but if you can't eat the syrup, you really seem to be going crazy."

"……Hahaha."

These words of the son are equal to the highest praise for him.

He took another sip of the wine happily and took a bite of the noodles before he said unhurriedly:
"The acid water at home is particularly good this year, transparent."

After speaking, he pointed to the kitchen:
"Dad made two tanks, and brought you a big bucket. If you want to eat, fry some leeks yourself, don't put anything in it, just fry in oil, add salt, put it out, and then pour oil, onion and garlic into the pot, Spicy, pour the slurry water in... boil the pot and put the noodles in, and it will come out after two rolls, it's good."

"Uh……"

Although the steps may sound simple, the truth is...

Xu Xin really doesn't know how to do it.

I can only nod my head:
"Okay... let's try it then!"

"Remember not to get oil on the basin, otherwise the slurry will be bad."

"Uh-huh."

"Talk to that girl later, if you can do it, let her beat you~"

"..."

Xu Xin, who is pulling noodles, eats with chopsticks...

He raised his head in embarrassment:

"……it is good."

"Don't eat outside food all the time, it's not clean~ In the refrigerator, you can see the eggs being changed, and the rest don't move, will it work? Young people, live a life, you suffer, and the mother-in-law stays in the kiln That’s fine. There’s no fire at home to cook pots, so what’s life like?”

He didn't worry about what kind of friend his son had talked about.

He's just using the most simple point of view... Even compared to his current social status, such things as "suffering bitterness" and "cave dwellings" are out of place.

But still use the truth contained in these roughest words to tell his son how to run a family.

"Well... I know."

Hearing this, the old man who came here specially to deliver the syrup to his son today stopped talking.

One sip of wine, one sip of noodles.

Three taels of wine and a big bowl of noodles.

The father and son lay on the rocking chair in the yard and smoked.

"The sky in Yanjing, why can't you see the stars?"

Holding the fan in his hand, Xu Daqiang said with emotion:
"The life of the people of Yanjing is miserable."

Xu Xin deeply agreed.

Indeed, it is really rare to see stars here.

"Dad, I want to go home on July [-]th..."

"No return!"

Xu Daqiang rejected his son's idea without hesitation:

"Just burn some paper. Dad told your mother that the baby is doing the Olympic Games, and the ancestors will be honored. She must be happy~ Don't dare to delay the affairs of the country!"

"……All right."

Seeing that his father was so persistent, Xu Xin stopped talking.

"Go back tomorrow?"

"Well, I just want to go to Dongsheng tomorrow, and there is another mine over there. Let's talk about it...Ah, these are trivial things, so don't worry about it. Just do it well."

"……Um."

There was no earnest teaching, even a little forced, Xu Daqiang didn't let his son worry about making money.

as he said.

It's all little things.

Nothing important about national affairs.

The middle-aged man set an example for his son with the most unpretentious point of view.

……

Come and go like the wind.

When going out in the morning, Xu Xin originally wanted to ask Brother Li why he didn't come.

But when I think of my father's "mysterious" sense of secrecy, it seems that this matter can also get a reasonable explanation.

Just like sending his son to school, watching his son get into the car with a bucket of syrup, he did not forget to ask:
"Talk to Director Zhang, don't dare to get oil on the slurry~"

Xu Xinxin said that he is not a fake Northwesterner...

Can you still know about this?

All the way to the Olympic Building, he directly carried the syrup to the cafeteria.

The big spoon of the cafeteria in his hometown Hanzhong was very happy when he saw this bucket of syrup.

He unscrewed the lid very professionally, poured out a small bowl, smelled it first, then tasted it, and gave Xu Xin a thumbs up.

And this bucket of slurry seems to have brought good luck to Xu Xin.

As soon as he went upstairs, he was stopped by Wei Lanfang who was overjoyed:
"Xiao Xu, Xiao Xu!"

"...What's the matter? Miss Wei."

Looking at the elder sister who looked like a temple that had been blown up in front of her, Xu Xin looked bewildered.

"Tomorrow! There will be a press conference tomorrow!!! Official announcement!"

"Uh……"

After Xu Xin realized what the so-called "press conference" was, he nodded his head:

"Isn't that nice?"

Wei Lanfang was taken aback.

Looking at Xu Xin who seemed very calm for some reason, he asked speechlessly:
"Aren't you excited?"

"Excitement is excitement...but isn't it already decided?"

Xu Xin said with a smile:

"It's been almost two months, I'm not excited anymore."

"... Then you have to be more excited in the camera, you know? Otherwise, what if the documentary is broadcast in the future?"

"Okay, got it."

The two entered the room, and during the meeting, Wei Lanfang didn't mention this matter.

After all, the press conference is tomorrow.

Everyone knows it, so when facing the camera, some special charges were made.But once the news is announced tomorrow, it is inevitable that the people here will show an extremely excited look.

but……

When eating at noon, Xu Xin looked at the surprised expressions of the two directors Zhang Yimou and Zhang Wu after taking a mouthful of noodles...an idea popped up in his heart.

I don't know if the expression on tomorrow's press conference will be more excited than it is now...

……

December 2006, 8.

morning.

It was nearly ten o'clock.

Xu Daqiang turned on the TV and directly tuned to TV1.

At the moment, a set of channels is still showing commercials.

But neither he nor Xu Miao and Zhang Qianqian at the side said a word, staring at the advertisements with straight eyes.

It looks a little nervous, but more of anticipation.

This puzzled the girl next to her.

But no one explained.

Xu Daqiang was even a little anxious.

Just after finishing a commercial, he looked at the watch in his hand, then raised his head again and continued to watch the commercial.

over and over again.

the other side.

"Girl, are you not going to practice driving today?"

Yang Chunling looked at her daughter who was sitting on the sofa, staring at the TV, and asked wonderingly.

Yang Mi shook her head:
"Go again in the afternoon."

"...Isn't there a test tomorrow? Why don't you touch it more quickly?"

"Don't go, don't go."

Yang Mi also stared intently at a satellite TV advertisement, and answered perfunctorily.

Yang Chunling was speechless.

Turning around and going back to the house, after changing into a long loose skirt, he said:

"Then go shopping with mom? Your dad said he wants to eat stewed chicken. Let's have lunch..."

"Oh, Mom! Please!"

The girl clasped her hands together and prayed:
"You let me watch TV for a while. Okay? You go by yourself. I'm not going anywhere in the morning."

"..."

weird.

Looking at the uncharacteristic girl, Yang Chunling shook her head helplessly.

Yang Dalin was not at home at the moment, so she said directly:
"Those who didn't know thought that your boyfriend was on TV... an inexplicable girl movie!"

"..."

The corner of Yang Mi's mouth twitched... Looking at the mother who stepped out of the house in slippers, she muttered:
"Are you a fortune teller?"

Time passed by every minute and every second.

The meeting room was equally silent.

Those who should smoke smoke, those who should watch TV watch TV.

At this time, Chen Weiya, who was holding a cigarette, said:
"Xiao Xu, are you nervous?"

Xu Xin glanced at the big screen with the hourly timer appearing in the upper right corner, and shook his head:
"Not nervous...but I feel like everyone is more nervous than me."

In an instant, many people turned their heads speechlessly.

The inside and outside of the eyes have the same meaning.

Why is your heart so big?

But Xu Xin is really not nervous... Isn't it all settled.

I haven't heard any rumors that it has been replaced or changed.

He is really not nervous... I can't say that, it should be said that he himself is not nervous, but he is a little worried for Zhou Chenghe.

After all...the internal combustion device used when the torch was first lit was designed by Zhou Chenghe.

He really doesn't know who will get the internal combustion design plan for these two months.

Just like that, it arrived on time at 10:[-] Yanjing time.

As soon as the screen switched, a reporter full of heads appeared on the scene.

……

"Finally, among the 388 effective works, the judging committee of the organizing committee officially selected the No. 2008 proposal submitted by the creative team of the "Director Group for the Opening and Closing Ceremonies of the 237 Yanjing Olympic Games" to pass the torch for the 2008 Yanjing Olympic Games .and, officially naming the torch as..."

In front of the camera, the big leader glanced at the outline of the torch covered by the red cloth, and said word by word to the reporters:

"Xiangyun!"

After the words fell, the staff on the side uncovered the red cloth.

Red with silver, the torch full of auspicious patterns came into view.

"Crack clap clap..."

In an instant, at the scene of the torch press conference that everyone was looking forward to, the sound of flashlights and shutters was transmitted from the screen like a sea tide.

The big meeting room was in an instant boiling.

"Little Xu! Hahahaha! Congratulations!"

"A dinner treat! This is something to celebrate again!~"

"Hahahaha! Xiao Xu's treat! Eat well today!"

The sound of congratulations resounded in the conference room, but Xu Xin tried his best to prick up his ears and listen to the movement in the screen.

Because it was too noisy, he only heard one sentence:
"The Aerospace Science and Industry Corporation is responsible for the design of the internal combustion system..."

Aerospace science and industry?

Not four?

"..."

Xu Xin sighed inwardly.

I'm sorry, Brother Zhou.

……

"Yeah!!!! Xiangyun! Xiangyun! Xiangyun!!!"

In the empty living room, Yang Mi was jumping up and down on the sofa, baring her teeth and claws, her face full of ecstasy!
But his eyes were always locked on the torch that gave a close-up.

It was also the first time she saw a torch designed by her boyfriend.

it……

What a nice view……

so beautiful……

Look at the magnificence conveyed by the red and silver colors inserted on the crystal booth.

Her eyes were full of obsession.

And the words "Xiangyun's design concept is inspired by books" in the ears are like the sounds of nature at this moment.

It's so sweet and beautiful.

So beautiful……

"It's really beautiful..."

Shenmu.

Zhang Qianqian looked at the torch on TV obsessively:

"This torch... is so beautiful!"

"Ok!"

Xu Miao, who clenched her fists at some point, responded forcefully:
"Listen, it's inspired by scrolls, symbiosis, harmony... What a good word! The lacquer red of the Han Dynasty... what an elegant adjective! It's really... so beautiful, so beautiful! Dad, let Sanjin ..."

As soon as Xu Miao opened his mouth, Xu Daqiang's eyes immediately turned towards him like a knife.

"..."

Realizing that she had said the wrong thing, Xu Miao quickly changed her words:
"Let Sanjin ask if Yanjing sells models, let's get one..."

"..."

Xu Daqiang is still a little dissatisfied with his son's seeking love.

But he didn't say anything.

He just grabbed the cigarette case and walked out of the house.

When he came outside the house, he lit a cigarette, and a stream of smoke rushed into the sky with his eyes.

……

The announcement of Xiangyun Torch is a big event.

This is true both internally and externally.

For several days in a row, various experts came to interpret what is hidden in the design of Xiangyun's appearance.

Whether it is an expert in reality or an "expert" on the Internet.

Because it's really, really good looking.

No matter how you look at it, you feel comfortable.

So the response was quite strong, and the Baidu Encyclopedia function, which was just launched in April this year, was already logged on that day.

From detailed size, to design concept, time, and close-up photos, etc., you can find it.

However, there is one small detail that has not been noticed for the time being.

That is to say that there is a "mistake" on it, whether it is human negligence or something.

Chinese name: 2008 Yanjing Olympic Torch

Foreign name: Yanjing 2008 Olympic Torch...

The descriptions of release date, release unit, and main color are very clear and clear.

However, in the [Designer] column, its format is:
Designer: Director of the Opening and Closing Ceremonies of the Yanjing Olympic Games
There is a "," symbol in front of it.

However, such details are generally not cared about, and some netizens who discovered it also submitted corrections in time.

It's just... nothing changed.

Anyway.

The release of Xiangyun is a big event.

Whether it is for some people or for the entire celestial dynasty, it is a big event.

In a blink of an eye, only the last "two years" of the Olympic Games are left.

The steel structure of the Bird's Nest is being built, the interior decoration of the Water Cube is being perfected, and various related living places are being constructed rapidly.

Two years may seem like a long way at first glance.

But in a blink of an eye... It seems that the 2006 Spring Festival was just over yesterday, but after a night of sleep, 2006 has quietly come to the end of August.

8 month 22 number.

Yang Mi got her driver's license.

The thing about the rich woman "that ghost" has also become a legend in the driving school of driving friends.

It is estimated that in the future, when members of the same batch meet with friends, or when relatives and friends at home want to learn a driver's license, they will inevitably make fun of this matter.

It tells the story of when they were learning to drive, they met a rich ghost who had never seen her face before and made sunscreen so crazy...

After tricking her parents into auditioning herself, Yang Mi sneaked into her boyfriend's house like a thief.

Tomorrow is Saturday, so Xu Xin doesn't have to go to work.

This time Yang Mi used a rather extreme excuse, and said directly:

"I'm going to Shanghai to audition."

He generously "asked" for two days off.

During this summer vacation, she was busy practicing driving to test her driver's license, and the two of them actually made quite a lot of travel plans around Yanjing.I want to take advantage of the end of this summer to go around Yanjing.

There is no way to go too far.

After all, time does not allow for a back and forth.

And this day, the two of them planned to go to Yanqing to drift.

Needless to say, the one-night tenderness between the young lovers.

On the morning of the 23rd, which was a sunny day, just at 6 o'clock, the alarm clock rang.

Xu Xin opened his eyes in a daze, pulled his hands out of his girlfriend's T-shirt with great reluctance, pressed the mute button, and pushed her:

"Sister... it's 6 o'clock, get up..."

Don't ask how the name "sister" came from.

Anyway, it sounds better than calling "Lin Chen".

The honey is too sweet, the wife is too ugly, and the daughter-in-law is too earthy.

Anyway, the inexplicable name became sister.

"Um……"

Yang Mi replied in a daze.

But Xu Xin turned around and fell asleep again.

The two of them tossed until almost 1 o'clock last night, and Ren Woxing next to him let him go.

He is also tired...

And Yang Mi got up in a daze, half-closed her eyes, held the phone, stepped on the silk stockings, rabbit ears and other things on the floor, and walked to the bathroom.

First, I washed my face, and I became more awake, and my eyes were able to open.

After brushing her teeth casually, she sat down on the toilet and started fiddling with her mobile phone.

Experts say that it is best not to look at your mobile phone when you go to the toilet, as it is easy to get hemorrhoids... But the experts also say that you should not eat whole grains, saying that you will die quickly...

Who do you listen to?
Of course it is how comfortable it is.

Her habit is to read the novel update first, and then read the news again.

But today I just opened the comprehensive website of the mobile base, and before clicking on the novel column, I was suddenly taken aback...

Blinking... Looking at the headline news on the phone, I thought I was wrong.

But after blinking, she looked again... When she found that she was right, she immediately yelled:
"Brother! Oops! It's over!"

Xu Xin, who was drowsily planning to sleep for a while, instinctively bounced off the bed, and quickly pushed open the bathroom door:

"Are you injured!?"

"no no……"

Although her boyfriend's subconscious care made her very warm, this is really not the time to worry about it.

She held up her mobile phone, looked at her panicked boyfriend and said:

"Something happened to Jaylen..."

……

"Netizen BLOG broke the news: Jay Chou's full record was intercepted on the streets of London! "

"Zhouhou Love Crisis? SHE's third party turned out to be HABE! "

"HABE intervenes in Zhou Hou's love, and the two travel together in London!" "

One message after another slaughtered the entire entertainment circle this morning.

A netizen ran into Jay Chou in London on the 20th, and the companion behind him turned out to be HABE from the popular group SHE.

Although there is no photo to prove it, it is true that someone saw a photo of Jay Chou appearing in London on the news on August 8th, which proved that he was in London.In July 15, HABE's BLOG said that she was going to London to learn how to play drums in order to play drums at SHE's Moving Castle concert in September.

All of a sudden... It was confirmed that Jay Chou and HABE were indeed in London at the same time during this period.

then……

The entertainment sector exploded.

Cheating, cheating, Zhou Hou's relationship crisis, breaking up...

A series of news completely slaughtered the entertainment news section on the morning of the 23rd.

And after Xu Xin roughly read the ins and outs of the matter, he suddenly asked his girlfriend:
"I remember who you said, you are good friends with Jay Lun?"

"Ella, E, Ella. She and Jaylen are good friends."

"Then this HABE..."

"..."

Looking at his girlfriend who was silently shaking her head, Xu Xin frowned:

"Shouldn't be..."

"...you call first and ask, how is it? I'll go and pack up."

"okay."

Xu Xin nodded, thought for a while with his mobile phone, and instead of calling Jay Chou directly, he called Dani.

beep~
The phone rang for a long time before Dani's voice sounded:
"Hello...Brother Xu..."

She has a low voice.

"what's wrong?"

"Danny, where's Jaylen, are you together?"

"Not yet... I'm downstairs at brother Jay's house. Brother Jay just came back from London at midnight last night, and he's still sleeping because of jet lag."

"...Have you read the news?"

"..."

After hearing Xu Xin's words, Dani was silent for a while, and then responded:
"Well, people from the company are also rushing here... This news was only released today, and everyone was caught off guard. Brother JAY doesn't know yet, but the company believes that remedial measures should have already begun..."

Xu Xin was noncommittal about her thoughts.

After all, Jay Chou's departure is already a certainty.

It's hard to say whether to grab a hand or step on it.

So, he directly asked:
"Then... is this true?"

"No! Brother Xu, Brother JAY just knows that HABE is in London and wants to meet. HABE took Brother JAY to visit London. This time Brother JAY is going to make up some scenes in "Chapter 7 of the Night"."

Hearing Dani's words, Xu Xin breathed a sigh of relief:

"Then he has to explain it to Patty quickly."

"Uh……"

"……What's wrong?"

Hearing that Dani's movement was not right, Xu Xin asked in bewilderment.

Then I heard a sentence:

"Brother Xu...Brother JAY just had an argument with Patty two days ago...the two are in a cold war..."

"..."

Xu Xin's heart sank...

　I'm here for three things.The first thing, everyone, don't complain about the name HABE.No way, I understand all homophonics.The second thing is that Zhou Hou’s timeline has changed, including traveling to London with HEBE, which actually happened in April.But here I changed it for the needs of the plot.Third, for the sake of my rigor, isn't it worth a thousand monthly tickets?
