Riding the wind of rebirth

Chapter 1111 Cooking Dumplings

Grandma is a person who knows how to maintain good health. In previous years, she would have gone to bed by this time. The reason why she didn't sleep this year was probably because she was waiting to see her grandson at the Spring Festival Gala.

"I saw it!" Grandma joked thoughtfully as always: "Anxin and Xiaojuan'er are beautiful. They also sent New Year greetings to people all over the country. They were very grand when they heard it."

"It's you, why did you become a four-eyed child?"

"This is to be blamed on the CCTV makeup teacher, who said that if it didn't happen like this, they wouldn't be allowed to watch the party." Zhou Zhi directly blamed the blame: "We are cooking dumplings, and I got hungry after watching the party. The things on display are for people to see, not to eat... Oops, Cousin An An and Sister Xiao Juaner are going to grab the microphone..."

Then there was another chaos, and when Zhou Zhi regained the right to speak, he paid New Year's greetings to his parents, and then started making New Year's greeting calls one by one.

For example, fourth cousin, eldest aunt, second aunt, aunt, second aunt, third uncle, third sister...

Finally, Zhou Zhi dialed Jiang Shuyi's home phone number.

"Hello? Are you thoughtful?"

"It's me, Shu Yi. Shu Yi, did you receive my paging text message? Happy New Year."

"Well, happy New Year to you too." Jiang Shuyi's voice was very noisy. Even though he was a little closer, the sound of firecrackers still resounded throughout the county.

This is an old custom in Jiachuan. The excitement tonight will last until four or five o'clock.

Both of them were silent for a while, but at the same time they said, "Zhou Zhi." "Shu Yi, I miss you so much."

After waiting for a while, Jiang Shuyi said, "We all saw you at the Spring Festival Gala."

"You heard grandma say I'm a bit ugly?"

"No, it's pretty... pretty good, but are you short-sighted?"

"Nothing. That's because the makeup artist had to make me wear it. It's flat, as if I'm not worthy of cousin An Xin and sister Xiaojuan'er if I don't wear it."

The person on the phone finally smiled: "They are very beautiful tonight. Who is the other lady beside you?"

"Oh, she is the general manager of Haitong Art Auction Company and the wife of Li Lehai, the second son of the Li family." Zhou Zhi said: "The Li family has made a lot of contributions to the country recently, and she was a guest on behalf of the Li family."

"Eh? Isn't Haitong just..."

"Yes, she hired me as Haitong's appraisal consultant. She will notify me in advance if she finds any good things." Zhou Zhi said: "In the next few days, there will be a charity auction for the Three Gorges Cultural Preservation Fund in the capital. This cultural preservation fund is also initiated by us. of."

"Well, you guys are amazing." Jiang Shuyi said after Zhou Zhi explained the tasks of the Three Gorges Cultural Preservation Fund to Jiang Shuyi.

"I also thought of it by the way, and donated money to the school to build a museum." Zhou Zhi said with a smile: "I may work there in the future, and I have to build the future workplace better."

"You are really thinking too far ahead." Jiang Shuyi smiled.

"Have you met your classmates when you got home?" Zhou Zhi asked about this.

After that, it was Jiang Shuyi's turn to report. During the holidays, the students all returned to Jiachuan. Now everyone's jobs and those who go to college have changed a lot in half a year, and there are many stories that have happened.

Starting from the closest friends, to familiar classmates from other classes, and even some classmates who were not familiar with it before, as long as there is some news, it will spread among the classmates.

But after tonight, everyone's conversation is destined to turn to Zhou Zhi. After all, the Spring Festival Gala is still the mainstream on New Year's Eve, and there must be many people who can recognize him.

Neither of them had any intention of hanging up, and they chatted for more than half an hour. It wasn't until Jiang Shuyi's Du Yufen reminded her that Zhou Zhi was calling long distance and the call was expensive, Jiang Shuyi said sorry to Zhou Zhi in a panic, and then hung up in a hurry. Drop the phone.After hanging up the phone, Zhou Zhi realized that he was hungry. When he looked around, everyone had already finished their dumplings and started playing poker.

"You didn't leave any for me?" Zhou Zhi was surprised by the conscious and unconscious behavior of several girls.

"Play it yourself, and give us some more by the way." Lin Wanqiu was busy playing her cards: "Don't be busy! To the Queen!"

"In China, you have to say that you are right." Fu Xia, a foreigner, began to correct Lin Wanqiu's pronunciation: "Yes, Kai! Hehe, no one can afford these twenty, right?"

"Go!" Cousin An An said, "Why are you standing there stunned? We just ordered the bottom, go and cook the dumplings."

"You can only fish for co-authors, but not others?" Zhou Zhi was a little speechless.

"Yes, it's just that I've become accustomed to eating ready-made food over the years." Sister Xiaojuan'er smiled a little sheepishly: "It's not that I don't work, it's that they hired someone to play cards. You can't complain to your mother about your elbow!"

"Haha, is it useful for me to complain?" Zhou Zhi sneered: "I wish you a happy New Year, and you also have to tell me a few words to keep you from going hungry."

"The main reason is that I'm afraid of starving the baby in my sister-in-law's belly." Cousin An An began to tease Zhou Zhi: "The status of the family heirloom is about to be jeopardized——"

"What about you?" Zhou Zhi didn't bother to pay attention to cousin An An's provocation, and turned to ask Su Fang, who was reading cards in her pocket.

"A group of rookies, I want to teach them how to fight." Su Fang's reason was very good.

"Sister Fang is a big star now. What do you think about letting a big star cook dumplings?" Cousin An An expressed criticism.

"That's right!" Everyone agreed.

Indeed, Su Fang is determined to become a household name after tonight, but these days there are big stars who empty toilets in Beijing alleys, so what's the point of cooking some dumplings? !

……

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the preview before the charity auction of the Three Gorges Cultural Preservation Fund officially opened in the lobby on the second floor of Chang'an No. [-] Business Building.

Chang'an No. [-] is a large-scale real estate project built by Feng Cang, Pan Shiya and several people. It is located in the Chang'an Street CBD business district. It has [-] square meters of [-]-story Grade A office buildings and [-] square meters of five-story commercial entertainment and leisure areas. It can be regarded as a new landmark in Beijing. .

This exhibition is also the opening ceremony of Changan No. [-], so it is naturally very lively.

The funniest thing is that there is also a pigeon release ceremony. Ten thousand pigeons fly out in a majestic manner. This scene will rarely be seen in future generations.

As an important donor and appraiser, Zhou Zhi also wore a small red flower on his chest and stood on the stage with Mr. Wang.

People in the capital were very busy, and no one cared about the old custom of not going out on the first or second day of the new year. Zhou Zhi followed the old man and Lin Wanqiu and got to know many big-name celebrities in the capital.

However, among many people who don't know what's going on, Zhou Zhi is the biggest celebrity. After all, the two impressive women in yesterday's Spring Festival Gala, Su Fang and Fu Xia, are following Zhou Zhi and never leave.

In fact, the two of them were just very interested in traditional Chinese art, but they didn't understand it, so they just followed Zhou Zhi and Wang Laoqi to learn about it.

The effect and influence of the previous exhibition are still very obvious, and it has also made the news, especially the "Three Gorges Theme Painting Exhibition of Modern Famous Masters" which was sorted out by Zhou Zhi and displayed together with the cultural relics to be auctioned. It fits the theme of this event very well and also awakens the public. A lot of attention has been paid to the cultural protection work of the Three Gorges Project.

On the evening of the third day of the lunar month, the auction officially began.

This auction is also Haitong's network in the domestic art auction market in recent years. Big bosses in the collection industry have donated their precious collections to participate in the bidding, making the standards of this auction very high.
