That year Huayu

Liu Dehua's "Gong Xi Fa Cai" has dominated the Spring Festival for the 12th year and can be heard everywhere in the streets and alleys.

If you include other festive festivals, the coverage and popularity of this song can really be said to be extremely abnormal.

No, as they sat in Liu Xiaoli's car and shuttled through the bustling commercial streets, the lyrics "I congratulate you on getting rich, I congratulate you on being wonderful" never stopped ringing in Lin Nan and Liu Yifei's ears.

Either it came from this clothing store, or it rang from that supermarket. When the three people entered a time-honored gold store, good guy... it was still this song!

"By the way, shouldn't we two receive red envelopes?" Liu Yifei, wearing a khaki coat and a black mask, murmured in a low voice with only a pair of bright eyes exposed.

"You two are married, why should you receive red envelopes? It's time to give out red envelopes to the younger relatives!" Liu Xiaoli smiled and rolled her eyes at her daughter, knowing that she was being coquettish with her.

"Mom, don't worry, we are both prepared." Lin Nan couldn't help laughing.

He and Liu Yifei had just come out of the airport. Miss Liu was thinking about buying gifts for her elders. How could the two of them prepare anything else? Not at all.

"Huh? What have you prepared? Why didn't I know?" Liu Qianqian raised her head slightly and looked at Lin Nan doubtfully.

"Of course we're getting ready now. You can accompany our mother to pick something else slowly."

After finishing speaking with a smile, Lin Nan walked straight to the display cabinet on the other side and said to the teller: "Please give me 20 of those little monkeys. They should have Spring Festival style packaging boxes, right?"

"Huh? Yes, there is a gilded mahogany gift box. Sir, each one is 10 grams. Are you sure you want 20?"

After the teller was stunned for a moment, the smile on his face became brighter in an instant, and he kept echoing.

Seeing this scene, Liu Yifei and Liu Xiaoli understood what Lin Nan was thinking. They didn't stop him and began to choose other things with satisfaction.

"Well, you can wrap it up for me now and pay for it together later." Lin Nan nodded and ordered. These things together are not as expensive as the watch that Miss Liu gave to Lao Lintou.

"Okay, please wait a moment."

Older women with good temperament are generally more suitable for high-quality pearls, jade or gold jewelry.

According to different personal preferences, Liu Yifei chose a simple and large gold bracelet for her grandmother, jadeite for Liu Xiaoli, and pearls for her aunt...

Well, all of this was paid for by Director Lin Da.

Of course, this is what it should be. After all, the first Spring Festival after marriage was spent in Lin Nan’s hometown, and this second Spring Festival naturally has to come...bringing gifts to the door!

At early 1 o'clock in the afternoon, the three of them arrived home smoothly.

The atmosphere here is indeed more lively because it is more popular; and when Lin Nan came to visit, everyone was laughing and joking for a while.

Ever since, Miss Liu was a little "dissatisfied". She felt the same way as Lin Nan's treatment in front of Lao Lintou a few days ago - she was "ignored" by her grandma and the others!

…

On the first day of February, the film bureau also officially went to work.

If you want to ask who in the bureau has the most "life-like" during this Spring Festival, it is undoubtedly Zhang Hongsen. The reason was undoubtedly what Tong Gang had revealed to him before.

"What's wrong? You look like you have encountered something funny?" In the office, Zhang Hongsen, who was in a very good mood, made a rare joke with his secretary.

Seeing the secretary who had just walked in, he couldn't help laughing and explained: "Zhang Ju, the people from China Film Group came too early! They need to apply for an extension key for "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons", which will take one month."

"Oh, I also admire La Pai Kang. On my first day of work after the new year, I've only been sitting here for less than half an hour, and he's already looking for trouble for me?"

Zhang Hongsen was overjoyed. In his opinion, the fact that China Film Group came to submit an application for an extension of the secret key today was definitely because of La Peikang’s special instructions;

Perhaps while the latter was applying for an extension key, he was also "reminding" him that the film bureau owed China Film an extension key... After all, he had indeed gone back on his word about "The Great Wall."

"How is the box office performance of "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons"? How are the reviews and response from the audience?" After laughing, Zhang Hongsen began to ask about the key points.

"The daily box office continues to fall, and it dropped to 140 million yesterday. The overall reputation is weak, mainly because the actors can't handle it, or even very bad; and the plot is also thin, and you can see the ending at a glance."

The secretary told the truth and restrained himself a lot.

Zhang Hongsen nodded slightly, this result was barely acceptable. But before he spoke, he habitually asked about other movies, "Where's Jackie Chan's "Kung Fu Yoga"?"

Upon hearing this question, the secretary paused obviously, and the expression on his face was a little strange.

"Say." Zhang Hongsen noticed something strange.

"The daily box office of "Kung Fu Yoga" has surpassed that of "Journey to the West: Conquering the Monsters". Yesterday it was 145 million, and its reputation is obviously better than ""Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons"!"

"I remember the first-day box office of these two movies, one was 354 million, and the other was 140 million, right? Yesterday was only the fourth day of release. Is this going ahead?"

Zhang Hongsen's eyes widened in an instant, with a look of disbelief on his face.

"Well, we have completely overtaken it. Zhang Bureau, what should we do now? Approval or not?"

Zhang Hongsen was silent. With the box office performance and reputation of "Journey to the West: Conquering the Monsters", the one-month release period is already full.

After a moment, he looked at his secretary and said seriously: "For the time being, withhold the extension key application from China Film. If Kung Fu Yoga also applies, give it to them."

"Director Zhang, this?"

"Let's do it this way. It's fair and just."

Just like his previous denial of The Great Wall, Zhang Hongsen once again showed an unusually resolute attitude. His appointment will be finalized by the end of this month at the latest.

...

Really returning to her hometown, Miss Liu is a little bit free.

Although it is sunny today, it is only more than 20 degrees.

Just like this, Liu Yifei changed directly into a white suspender dress... She stepped on brown boots, waved her shoulders and yelled for Lin Nan to accompany her out for a spring outing.

At the repeated request of Director Lin, she reluctantly added a silk shawl. In this way, Lin Nan took the camera and accompanied her to the park.

Well, before going out, Lin had a bowl of hot dry noodles to replenish his energy; because when women go out, their physical strength and energy are really far beyond what men can compare to!

As expected, Lin Nan did not rest for the whole morning and took a lot of landscape photos for the vain Liu Yifei.

It was not until noon that the news of "Operation Red Sea" landed on the top of the Weibo hot search list, which attracted the attention of the two people and stopped.

"Around 11 o'clock in the morning, Guo Fan, Lu Yang, Zhang Yi, Yu Nan, Luo Jin, Zhang Ruoyun and other main members of the "Operation Red Sea" crew appeared at the Capital Airport together."

"It is reported that the destination of the "Operation Red Sea" crew is Morocco, which is also the start location of the film. The specific start time..."

Liu Yifei was driving the car, and Lin Nan was sitting in the co-pilot and answering the phone. The two were rushing back. Because Liu Xiaoli had just called and urged the two to have lunch.

"The ratings have exploded, right? What was it yesterday? And what about the first-day data from Tudou?" As Lin Nan asked, Liu Yifei also listened attentively.

"Yesterday's ratings were 3.5, ranking first in the country in the same period. And the number of views on Tudou is as high as more than 600 million, which is simply terrifying! Director Lin, the performance of this drama is really explosive!"

Jiang Xingrou's tone was very serious. She was extremely satisfied with the data of "Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms". Compared with the previous "The Journey of Flower", it was completely crushed.

Lin Nan subconsciously glanced at Liu Yifei, only to see that her face was full of undisguised bright smiles, and she glared back: "What are you looking at? Haven't you seen a beautiful woman?"

"Tsk, obviously the ugliest in the family..."

Halfway through the joke, Lin Nan realized that the phone was still connected. Jiang Xingrou's laughter was already clearly audible, and when he looked at Liu Yifei again, he looked at the road ahead with a murderous look on his face.

"Director Jiang, let's stop here. Yifei and I are on a flight tomorrow morning, and we'll meet at the company later."

"Okay, Director Lin. The filming team of "Dying to Survive" is also ready."

...

On the morning of the 3rd, Lin Nan and Liu Yifei took out three "little monkeys" that had not yet been distributed and prepared to take them away, and left the rest to Liu Xiaoli to continue using as red envelopes until they were all distributed.

Ten minutes after the two boarded the plane, there was corresponding entertainment information on the Internet-"Director Lin Nan and Liu Yifei ended the Spring Festival holiday, departed from Wuhan, and officially returned to Beijing..."

Ali Pictures.

The success of the drama version has completely put pressure on this side.

But fortunately, there is no tendency or behavior of pulling down the marketing of the drama version, so for Zhang Qiang, the success of the drama version of "Eternal Love" is actually a good thing for his company!

"It has to be said that the popularity of this drama has successfully saved the careers of several out-of-date male actors. Even the female students from the Central Academy of Drama and the Beijing Film Academy have begun to show their talents and have a lot of star power;

But these are all good things for us, because with the drama version as a precedent, it can provide more heat, attention and topics for the film version... I am very much looking forward to the box office now."

Zhang Qiang said confidently. He has always remembered Lin Nan's previous box office boasts about this big IP.

And the entire company's expectations for the box office of the film version of "Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms" are naturally self-evident. After all, this is the first exclusive film produced by Alibaba Pictures in the true sense!

"Mr. Zhang, she's here." The assistant's voice interrupted Zhang Qiang's thoughts, and the latter's face suddenly smiled even more.

"Let's go and greet our great hero, the female stock god!"

Zhang Qiang's compliment today was not contemptuous at all, but completely heartfelt.

Because since the resumption of trading of Wanjia Culture on January 12, the operation of repeated harvesting has been ongoing. Now three weeks have passed, and a lot of money has been made.

The A-share market holiday ended yesterday, so from today, the planned last harvest can officially begin - within 4 to 5 days, sell directly to the placard line!

When countless leeks... stockholders reacted, the overall situation was determined and everything was too late!

Two minutes later, Zhang Qiang met the visitor in the small reception room.

"Congratulations, as of today, not only have you made back your principal and interest, but you have at least doubled it, right?"

"Haha, Mr. Zhang, you are joking. But in the next two days, I can directly transfer the principal, interest and the promised share!"

The sense of accomplishment and the "generosity" in his tone were not concealed at all. Zhang Qiang could hear that the other party acquiesced to his guess.

"Okay, then do it as soon as possible. Besides, you will also make pure money in the next few days. I have to admit that I am very envious now."

"Then leave a seat for Mr. Zhang next time, and you can participate in it privately. No, it depends on the funds and channels of the group."

"Okay, it's all okay, haha..." Zhang Qiang was really tempted.

...

There are indeed a lot of paparazzi at the Capital Airport. Lin Nan and Liu Yifei were dressed so low-key and wrapped so tightly, but they were still caught.

Fortunately, most of the entertainment reporters were attracted by the TFboys surrounded by a large number of bodyguards and assistants;

So Lin Nan and Liu Yifei easily got rid of the sharp-eyed paparazzi and quickly slipped into an inconspicuous Audi A6.

This is the car of Shu Chang's studio. She is driving, and Han Jianu is sitting in the passenger seat.

"You two are finally back. Finally, there is a quiet place to hide." The car was driving on the highway, and Han Jianu complained with a pout.

Lin Nan and Liu Yifei smiled at each other. They knew without guessing that Han Jianu was definitely nagged by Han Sanping; her mouth was so annoying that it was killing people!

"It's still a bit cold today, let's go eat hot pot at noon?" Without paying attention to Han Jianu, Lin Nan directly talked about lunch.

Sure enough, the three foodies all nodded instantly.

"Yeah, Changchang, we are not in a hurry to go home, the destination is changed to..." Liu Yifei immediately greeted Shu Chang.

"Oh, I'm so sorry, I'll let you two treat me again... I also want to eat roasted whole lamb, the one next door last time..." Han Jianu was not polite at all, and ordered the meal with a smile.

"Understood, leave it to me!" Shu Chang wrinkled his nose and said, a pair of sunglasses covering most of his face.

Lin Nan originally wanted to tease the three people, but unfortunately, a phone call came in. Glancing at the caller ID, he decisively gave up the idea of ​​turning on the hands-free.

"Hello, Mr. Lu? No need for a welcoming party, Shu Chang will pick us up at the airport, and we are preparing to have a dinner. Well, okay, let me think about it...

How about setting it on the 7th? Well, after Mr. Lu makes arrangements, just give me the address..."

Two minutes later, Lin Nan hung up the phone.

It was then that he realized that the atmosphere in the car seemed to have become a little strange, and it was so quiet that it was a little solemn.

Liu Yifei looked at him with a smile, her acting skills were superb, and there was nothing unusual.

And Shu Chang in the rearview mirror, although she was wearing sunglasses to cover her eyes, Lin Nan could see the curve of her mouth clearly!

Only Han Jianu was a little confused, with clear doubts in her eyes.
