Reborn Tech Maniac

Chapter 533
……

On the set of the movie "The Frog Prince", everyone is busy filming a fight scene after Ami, played by Zhong Chuhong, is kidnapped.

Wang Jing called the assistant over and said: "Maggie is still a little unfamiliar with filming for the first time. Go and give me some pointers on the next steps."

Photographer Li Xinye joked, "Brother Jing really cares about Hong Kong and cherishes jade. You have taken good care of this Miss Hong Kong since filming."

Before Wang Jing could speak, the lighting engineer Ruan Dingbang laughed and said, "The women of DreamWorks should not be offended, maybe one day they will become the proprietress."

"But Zhang Manyu is not from DreamWorks." Li Xinye was a little stunned.

"Oh, I slipped my tongue, I always took it for granted." Ruan Dingbang waved his hand quickly.

"Stop chewing your tongue like a gossip, hurry up and get to work." Wang Jing laughed and scolded the gang of gossipers away.

……

"The Frog Prince" is a typical fashion comedy Hong Kong film. The play process is also based on the pursuit of being funny, and it doesn't require too much advanced, so it was completed quickly.

"Let's stop here today." Wang Jing announced, "After renting the helicopter, we can shoot a few more shots and we'll be done."

"Maggie, are you tired?" Zhong Chuhong, who is very popular, asked while packing her bag.

"It's okay. I was a little nervous at the beginning of the filming scene, but I realized later that basically I have nothing to do with myself, as long as I don't run around." Zhang Manyu shook her head with a smile.

As soon as they walked outside, they heard someone shout: "Ah Hong, Maggie, this way."

The two followed the prestige and saw that it was Tang Huan, who was sticking his head out of the car window and beckoning.

Zhong Chuhong glanced at Zhang Manyu who walked over first with a happy face, then followed slowly, and asked, "You just came back?"

"Just got off the plane." Tang Huan nodded, "I heard that you guys are filming, so I stopped by to treat you to dinner."

"Where did Mr. Tang come from Xiangjiang?" Fang Yihua secretly told him to get closer to Tang Huan, and at the same time he didn't feel disgusted. Zhang Manyu, who was even eager to try, asked curiously.

"It's very difficult to do business in Siam. Look, I haven't shaved for several days." Tang Huan grabbed Zhang Manyu's little hand and pressed it on his chin.

"It's so itchy." Zhang Manyu pulled out her hand with a smile, and glanced embarrassedly at Zhong Chuhong, who rolled her eyes.

Tang Huan sniffed the lingering fragrance in his hand, leaned back on the seat comfortably, squinted his eyes and said to himself: "Beautiful world of flowers, I'm back again."

……

1980年至1981年旱季、1981年至1982年旱季、1982年至1983年旱季，安南军队连续三个旱季对扶南西部山区反抗势力的根据地发动重点进攻。

The same was true of the fighting in the dry season of 1983-1984, and even at the end of this dry season, the fighting became more intense.

During this period, the attacks and battles of the resistance forces in Funan gradually spread from the mountainous area at the junction of Funan and Siam to the inland plains, and then reached the capital of Funan and its surrounding areas.

Therefore, Annan's army's suppression operations became more and more fierce, even chasing and attacking Siamese territory, and fought fiercely with the Siamese army.

Tang Huan went to Funan this time, and he didn't stay in that border town for two days before Annan's army attacked.Such a fast speed may also have something to do with the plane being shot down.

It is precisely because of this that Tang Huan saw the real blood and fire on the battlefield. The feeling was not comparable to that when he went to the Falkland Islands in 1982. The battles here are more primitive and more brutal.

Han Anyuan and his group of military generals were very capable. They made a false impression of retreating to the Siamese border, but actually set up an ambush at the Funan border. As a result, they caught the Annan army by surprise, which had just been forced back by the Siamese army, and annihilated an entire battalion of the opponent in an organized manner. All parties concerned about the situation in Funan were surprised.

After Han Anyuan reluctantly let Tang Huan follow the troops to see the life-and-death struggle, he resolutely refused to let him stay in Funan, and drove him away in a panic, "You just need to ensure my logistics, don't stay here What an adventure."

Tang Huan also knew that staying here longer would only add pressure to Han Anyuan, so he nodded happily and agreed, but he was also a little worried, "As your strength grows, especially the recent systematic elimination of Annan's army, it is bound to become more and more serious. It has attracted a heavy attack from Annan's army, you must pay attention to your safety, uncle."

"Our faction needs to stand out and gain a reputation. As for being taken care of by Annan's army, it will be a matter of time." Han Anyuan was mentally prepared.
"Two people were traveling in the forest, and they met a bear. A hurriedly bent down to tie his shoelaces. B said anxiously, "We can't outrun the bear." A replied, "I just need to run faster than you." gone.'"

After telling a joke, Tang Huan said meaningfully: "Brother, there is a limit to taking the lead. You only need to show that you are stronger than the other two factions. You don't have to be really desperate. In the first few years of this war, The struggle is attrition. In less than three years, Annan, fighting on two fronts, will be exhausted. By then, the more than 20 Annan troops stationed here in Funan will be unsustainable and in a dilemma."

"Your prediction is very reasonable, but don't forget that the longer the time drags on, Funan's puppet regime may become more established. What if the other side is willing to support the royal family, what should we do?" Han Anyuan, who had other plans, said I don't fully agree with Tang Huan's "drag" formula.

"You are more familiar with the situation in Funan than I am, and of course you have more authority than me." Tang Huan mused, "But you also have to be careful. Annan's army is fully capable of fortifying the wall and clearing the country, that is, driving the resistance forces to Funan and Siam first." border, and then build a line of defense. At that time, your situation will be even more difficult."

Hearing this, Han Anyuan's expression suddenly became solemn, "It is true, after all we lack armored troops."

Speaking of this, Han Anyuan unfolded the map and looked at it, "The main reason is that our rear area and scope of activities are too dependent on the western border of Funan. It would be great if we could make a hole in the southern coastal area of ​​Funan."

Tang Huan also looked at the map for a while, and found that Han Anyuan's military strategic vision was really broad, so he said with a smile: "It's okay, then just buy a ship."

"Your bet is getting bigger and bigger." Seeing his nephew's indifferent expression, Han Anyuan couldn't help but smile.

"Hundreds of millions and billions are not much different in my eyes." Tang Huan smiled indifferently.

"In the coming rainy season, Annan's large army will be unable to shrink back. I plan to take this opportunity to engage in diplomatic activities." Han Anyuan patted Tang Huan on the shoulder, "The United States, Singapore, Malaysia and other countries Most of the aid has been given to Song Shuang’s faction, and I plan to win some over, so as to reduce your financial pressure.”

"That's good too. Saving money is the second priority. The key is to establish an international channel from the outside." Tang Huan thought for a while, and felt that Han Anyuan's plan was good. "Then I will help you arrange the itinerary for the visit."

……

Tang Huan squinted his eyes, seeming to be sleeping but not sleeping. Zhong Chuhong and Zhang Manyu obediently did not bother him. The former took out the script "Autumn Fairy Tale" and thought about it carefully, while the latter looked at the notes in the training class and thought carefully.

The car soon arrived at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel. After entering the guest room through the special VIP passage, Tang Huan said, "I'm going to take a shower to relieve my fatigue. You two can sit down casually, or help me ask what dishes are recommended in the restaurant today."

"Okay." Enthusiastic Zhang Manyu rushed to call the front desk.

After a while, Tang Huan poked his head out of the bathroom and said, "Ah Hong, bring me a set of ** here."

Zhong Chuhong agreed, and lightly patted Zhang Manyu who was on the phone, then got up and walked away.

……

After Zhang Manyu made the phone call, seeing that Zhong Chuhong hadn't come back, she tried to call "Ahong", but there was no answer, so she walked towards the bathroom, but stopped hesitantly halfway, subconsciously He yelled "Ahong" again.

This time there was a response, and I only heard Tang Huan say inside: "I haven't showered for a few days, and I asked Ah Hong to help scrub the sweat on my back. Maggie, why don't you come in and help?"

"No, no, I can't do it well with clumsy hands, so I'd better let Ah Hong help alone." Zhang Manyu, who was relieved, refused repeatedly, and quickly went back to the sofa and sat down, stuck out her tongue, She snickered a few times, and said to herself: "Ah Hong is a big star no matter what, but now she's a girl. It's so interesting."

Zhang Manyu, who is less than 20 years old and has a relatively simple mind, after secretly teasing Zhong Chuhong, picked up the script "Autumn Fairy Tale" that the other party watched non-stop when he was free. It was about a Chinese couple living in New York, USA. Emotional stories between men and women.

The beautiful and proud young girl Shisanmei, in order to follow her boyfriend, came to New York from Xiangjiang to study at university, but it was not her boyfriend who came to pick her up at the airport, but a distant relative who worked in Chinatown—Chuan Touchi.

This person is full of foul language and vulgarity, and is regarded as a "rotten ghost". At first, he was bored with Shisanmei and called the woman a tea pot, which means trouble in English.

Thirteen sisters soon found out that her boyfriend had flirted with someone else, and she was devastated and disheartened. Fortunately, Chuan Tou Chi, who lives downstairs, took good care of her and recovered quickly. She regained her confidence and concentrated on studying and working.

Chuan Touchi gradually develops feelings for Shisanmei, so he quits smoking and gambling.But because the trauma of Thirteen Sister's first love failure has not yet healed, and the two people's lifestyles, thoughts, and tastes are completely different from each other, so the two sides approach emotionally, but keep a distance rationally.

In the fall, Thirteenth Sister decided to accept a new job on Long Island and move out of the room upstairs where Chuantouchi lived.

When parting, Chuan Touchi sold his second-hand car and bought a watch strap for Shisanmei to match her watch movement, but in the end he found out that the other party gave him the watch movement.

After a while, Thirteen Sister revisited the old place and found a restaurant named "Sampan" opened by the sea.

Then Chuan Touchi appeared and entertained Thirteenth Sister as the owner of the shop.

……

Zhang Manyu, who grew up in the UK, can best appreciate the feeling of wandering in a foreign land and having fun in bitterness in the story, and she is fascinated by it unconsciously.

After a long time, Zhong Chuhong came out of the bathroom, took a look in the mirror, and then came to Zhang Manyu's side, and patted her, "How about this script?"

"The emotions in this are so delicate and restrained." Zhang Manyu returned the script to Zhong Chuhong, and said enviously: "When the movie is made, it must be very exciting."

"I hope my acting skills can control this story." Zhong Chuhong smiled faintly.

"You must be fine." Zhang Manyu delicately pulled Zhong Chuhong's arm and shook it, then asked in surprise, "Why is your hair wet? Your face is still so red."

"Do you think rubbing your back is easy?" Zhong Chuhong rolled her eyes, and asked guiltily, "I'm exhausted, and it's so hot inside, so my hair is certainly wet."

"You maidservant really worked hard." Zhang Manyu nodded like a chicken pecking at broken rice, "Fortunately, it's just rubbing your back, not warming the bed."

"Smelly girl, you actually made fun of me. I knew I would have dragged you in to share the work." Zhong Chuhong shyly reached out to grab Zhang Manyu, but because of her cowardice and weakness, she was easily overwhelmed by the other party on the sofa, and the two girls immediately laughed into a ball.

……

After enjoying the carefully prepared dishes in the restaurant, Tang Huan smiled and invited: "Ahong, Maggie, come and sit in my room again."

Zhang Manyu was about to say yes, but Zhong Chuhong hurriedly replied: "No, it's getting late, and I want to go back and think about the script of "Autumn Fairy Tales"."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Manyu hurriedly continued, "Yes, Ah Hong's role in "The Frog Prince" is very easy, but I can't. I have to do more homework in advance."

Tang Huan looked at the two girls meaningfully and smiled, "Okay, I'll send you a car to take you back, and we'll have dinner together some other day."

……

After returning to the guest room, the assistant sent over an urgent document, which immediately made Tang Huan frown.He directly contacted Tang Wenmao in San Francisco, "Who made this shit-stirring Mark?"

"It is still under investigation. It seems that it is the political opponents of several California state representatives and state senators we support, but further confirmation is needed." Tang Wenmao replied cautiously.

"Then be careful. This year the United States is in the midst of a general election, and the political aspect is more sensitive. Don't cross the line easily and follow the truth." Tang Huan solemnly warned.

"I understand." Tang Wenmao asked worriedly, "When will you return to the United States? The issue of your age when you entered the country is being hyped here again."

"Then let them go and chew their tongues to their heart's content." Tang Huan said angrily, "Is the truth meaningful now? The world is so big, you can go there. With my current strength, prestige and status, Where to go is not a guest. I still don't believe it, someone will drive me out?"
