Raising Babies in the 70s - Chapter 140

    Because Zhang Yichao was making a fuss about being a director, Zhang Chengbei’s family had been arguing for several days.

    Zhang Chengbei was about to be **** off by his son, “Yesterday you said you wrote novels, today you said you wanted to be a director, what else do you want to do tomorrow?”

    “Forget the nonsense of the novel you wrote, and now you are making a fuss about not taking the college entrance examination this year, and which film school you will go to next year. Is your mind full of sea water?”

    I finally hoped for the stars and the moon to wait for the eldest son’s college entrance examination, but it came to a critical juncture. This guy said that he would not take the examination. He was going to take the art recruitment examination next year.

    “Are you a director?”

    Zhang Yichao is very stubborn: “Why am I not?”

    “I have now found the direction of my life struggle, I want to be a director, I want to make movies, I want to become the greatest director in the country!”

    Zhang Chengbei Liangliang said: “You are going to become the biggest unlucky person in the world.”

    “How did I give birth to such an unfortunate son as your father?”

    Zhang Chengbei is now glad that he has given birth to two more sons.

    …

    The father and son of the Zhang family quarreled in the yard every day, attracting a group of people from the family yard to watch the fun.

    “Old Zhang, what happened?”

    “This child is making a fuss about not taking the college entrance examination.”

    Xiao’s sister-in-law came up with an idea: “Don’t take the college entrance examination? Then let the child inherit his father’s business and join the army!”

    Zhang Chengbei: “You are a good idea, this unfortunate child needs to be sent to discipline.”

    Zhang Yichao: “I won’t go! Can you force me to go? Can you carry me? If you want to send me to be a soldier, I will be a deserter.”

    Zhang Chengbei rolled his eyes: “You’re really going to be mad at me!”

    Sister-in-law Xiao curiously said, “Old Zhang, what does your child want to do if he doesn’t take the college entrance examination?”

    “What film school does he want to go to.” Zhang Chengbei sighed: “He wants to be a director and make movies.”

    “Yo, make a movie.” Aunt Xiao was stunned, because the movie is familiar and unfamiliar to them, everyone has seen the movie, but… how to make a movie? How are movies made? These questions are too far away for them.

    “Dad, why don’t you allow me to be a director? You let me try. I’m going to the Capital Film School next year.”

    “Try it? Can you pass the test?” Zhang Chengbei was not optimistic: “Are you ready to be a director?”

    “What’s wrong with failing the test? You didn’t tell me before that I couldn’t pass the test in the first year, the second year, the third year… I can always pass!”

    “People who took the college entrance examination in 1977, still take the college entrance examination this year, and my cultural performance is not bad.”

    “Dad, look at the photos I took, look at how well I took these photos, and I will definitely be good at making movies in the future!”

    “Didn’t I inherit your talent?! We father and son are both good at making this stuff.”

    Sister-in-law Xiao supported: “Yichao is right! Mr. Zhang, your photos are the best in our family home. Maybe Yichao will really become a great director in the future.”

    Zhang Chengbei covered his head: “Mr. Huang, you are a teacher, come and persuade your son.”

    Huang Xinying spread her hands: “Your son has made a decision, three horses can’t pull back, don’t hit the south wall and die and don’t look back, when he finds out that he’s not that piece of material, don’t you think about it? Did you get through?”

    “I said before that I wrote martial arts novels. Look, it took me so long to write them, and I gave up immediately.”

    “Wait, maybe before the college entrance examination, he will figure it out himself, don’t argue with him.”

    “Your son is just like you. He works hard for three minutes. The more you argue with him, the more interested he will be.”

    Zhang Yichao said seriously beside him: “Mom, your attitude is correct! I am serious!”

    As a child, I hate parents taking their decisions as a joke. This time Zhang Yichao really thinks he wants to be a director and he wants to make great movies!

    “When I become a director, you can see your son’s work in the cinema.”

    Zhang Chengbei: “There won’t be that day.”

    Huang Xinying shook her head: “You father and son, stop arguing, Lao Zhang, be quiet.”

    “Mr. Huang, your attitude is not correct, you take the posture of training students to discipline your son…”

    …

    The Zhang family and their sons quarrel every day. As their neighbors, Lu Yan and his wife had to watch a lot of fun.

    Sweet Bean Rong sisters were playing on the lawn in the yard, Qin Rou was sitting under the thatched shed drinking tea, Lu Yan said that she wanted to play checkers with her, the couple just set up the chessboard, and the next door quarreled again .

    The war also spread to his home.

    Zhang Yichao worked hard to draw a battlefield alliance for himself: “Uncle Lu, Aunt Qin, did the graduation photo I took for you that day look good?”

    Qin Judo: “It’s a good shot.”

    Zhang Yichao seemed to have got a sword of Shangfang, and quickly said to Zhang Chengbei: “Look, Aunt Qin said that I took good pictures.”

    “Is taking a photo the same thing as taking a movie?”

    “Why is it not the same thing?” Zhang Yichao waved to the next door: “Uncle Lu, your son and daughter are so good-looking, I will be the director in the future, Zhouzhou and Rongrong will come for me Let’s be an actor!”

    “Doudourongrong, come and see brother Yichao. In the future, my brother will become a director and let you play the little fairy.”

    Rong Rong said: “I want to play Sun Dasheng, I want to make a scene in the heaven!”

    Doudou said: “I want to be Nezha!”

    Zhang Yichao will do anything to win the alliance: “You can play whatever you want, brother.”

    Zhang Chengbei’s eyebrows twitched, “You are the director, one of them will play Sun Wukong and the other will play Nezha. What do you want your father to play?”

    “I will give you a card face, you can play that bull devil.”

    “Zhou Zhou and Dumplings play Jin Zha Mu Zha.”

    Zhang Chengbei: “…”

    Lu Yan held the checkers and couldn’t help laughing: “Yichao, this kid is very capable, and your dad is so angry that he can’t speak.”

    Qin Rou put her hands on her face, and it was interesting to hear them arguing, the belated rebellious period of the child next door.

    “Am I speechless?” Zhang Chengbei jumped up like a big cat whose tail was stepped on, and subconsciously said, “I don’t really want to see this… Little Lu, you have Jin Zha, Mu Zha, Nezha, and Sun Wukong in your house, you are born to be rebellious.”

    Although he knew his son was joking, but Zhang Chengbei imagined this scene, very happy.

    Want to take a look.

    Lu Yan: “…”

    “You, Lu Yanzhu, are not a character who hates people.” Zhang Chengbei hugged his chest and said, “I hate you the most when watching movies.”

    “Where can you be proud, you bull demon king.”

    Zhang Yichao hurriedly said: “You listen, you listen, you all find it interesting, all come to support me as a director, in the future… let Liu Yue, let Liu Yue write the script, you guys Be an actor for me, and I’ll make a movie!”

    Mr. Huang shook the fan quietly: “Do you need your mother to fan your proud arrogance?”

    …

    The family next door was noisy, Qin Rou listened to it for several days, and couldn’t help but said to Lu Yan: “You said that our children have grown up, will you be with them too? There’s a quarrel in our yard.”

    “Comrade Lu Yan is afraid that his son will make him jump.”

    Lu Yan calmly said: “Don’t worry, Jiang is still old and spicy.”

    Qin Rou smiled: “This is not what my mother-in-law saw back then.”

    It is said that Lu Yan often made his father jump with anger. If she is lucky, I am afraid she will see the same history repeat itself in the future.

    Qin Rou sighed: “Blue is better than blue.”

    “The boss can’t, the second is he, he can’t quarrel with his father.”

    Qin Rou: “Don’t overestimate yourself.”

    Lu Yan looked at her amusingly: “What about you? I quarreled with my son, and you were talking sarcastically?”

    “I have to learn like Mr. Huang, and then I will carry a banana fan in my hand, and I will defeat you.”

    …

    Huang Xinying, husband and wife, and other people in the family home, most of them think that Zhang Yichao is making a fuss, just like his writing martial arts novels, but it is only three minutes of popularity, but this time, he seems to be moving real.

    In July, Zhang Yichao did not take the college entrance examination.

    Zhang Chengbei was so angry that he wanted to beat him with a stick, but Huang Xinying and Lu Yan and his wife were still persuading him.

    “Let the child try next year, he is still young and can try a few more times.”

    Qin Rou said to Huang Xinying: “My sister’s pearl wedding dress shop wants to shoot a short promotional video for ten to twenty minutes, why don’t you let your family come and try it.”

    Qin Rou sees that Zhang Yichao’s photos are very good-looking, and she has indeed worked hard to read a lot of books on director photography recently. After all, she is watching a grown child, so why not let him try it? I really don’t have that ability, so I can let him get away with it.

    “Is this… is this OK?” Zhang Chengbei and his wife were muttering in their hearts.

    “Aunt Qin, don’t worry, I promise to complete the task successfully for you!” Zhang Yichao smiled happily: “Among you, Aunt Qin has the discerning eye and can accurately identify me as a maximalist.”

    “Like my dad, if you put Maxima in front of him, he is also blind and can’t find Maxima in his life!”

    Zhang Chengbei rolled his eyes to the point of myocardial infarction: “How did I give birth to such an eldest son as you, are you really my seed?”

    Huang Xinying: “I don’t know if your father can discover Maxima and your mother, but your father and son have the same blind confidence.”

    Zhang Yichao patted his father Zhang Chengbei on the shoulder: “Dad, Mom, just wait and see!”

    “The finished product I shoot will scare you to death.”

    Zhang Chengbei sighed: “I was so scared that the coffin board bounced.”

    Huang Xinying: “Don’t talk nonsense.”

    “When I become an internationally renowned director in the future and shoot a masterpiece that shocked the world, you will realize how badly you are wrong!”

    Zhang Yichao: “Aunt Qin, tell me what kind of promotional video you want to make.”

    Qin Rou went to communicate with him.

    Zhang Chengbei came to Lu Yan’s side and pushed him with his elbow: “Brother Lu next door, don’t hurry up and watch, your son may be so angry with you in the future.”

    Zhang Chengbei continued: “Boy, there is always such a process.”

    “When you are so angry with your son in the future, I will definitely not laugh at you.” So you can’t laugh at me now.

    “When the time comes, I will lend you my shoulder, and I can accompany you to drink.”

    Lu Yan raised his eyebrows amusingly: “If you want to see me jumping with rage, I’m afraid it’s not that time, old Zhang, look at it in your dream when you’re drunk.”

    “Your three sons, I don’t mind watching it three times.”

    Zhang Chengbei snorted coldly, thinking that he should not speak too soon, who can tell what will happen in the future.

    Besides, who are the three sons of my family? It’s not that I accidentally got the blessing of your old Lu family.

    Now I return this blessing to you.

    Qin Rou rented a set of equipment, and Zhang Yichao, a young man with glasses, ran around with the machine. He was sunburnt during a summer vacation, as if he had come back from a black coal mine, but it was really for Qin Rou Toss out a very eye-catching wedding promotional video.

    Nowadays, there is a small TV in the bridal shop, and from time to time a promotional video shot by Zhang Yichao is played on a loop.

    The customers who came to the bridal shop all praised the promotional video. I didn’t really want to take a pearl wedding photo, but when I saw it, I couldn’t help but want to take one.

    “What a beautiful shot!”

     “It’s pretty good, who did you ask for in this store to shoot the promotional video… How could it be like this?”

    …

    I have never seen a way to put a TV in front of the store to show a promotional video, and people from all over the street come to watch the fun.

    Hearing these compliments, Zhang Yichao quickly pulled his parents out to see the lively scene outside the store.

    “Dad, Mom, look, I’m good at shooting, right? Am I talented?”

    Zhang Chengbei said in disgust, “You’re just shooting a small film that lasts about ten minutes. It takes one or two hours for a human film.”

    “Small things add up. I’ll be able to make a good movie when I get better at it!”

    “When your father retires, you will bring my mother to my movie to play a small role.”

    “How about I arrange for you to be a retired x-gang boss? Shootout biubiubiu…Our mother is Huang Chengcheng, waves run, waves, thousands of miles of surging rivers…”

    Zhang Chengbei: “Don’t be mad at your father.”

    Although they were shown by this kid’s pride, Zhang Chengbei and his wife calmed down, and tacitly gave this kid a chance to try which film university?

    “If you don’t pass the exam next year, just study hard for Lao Tzu.”

    “Go to a doctor and become a military doctor in the future.”

    “Help, I don’t want to study medicine.”

    “Then you are like your mother, go get tested for a teacher.”

    …

    Although it is not obvious in front of his son, as a biological father, Comrade Zhang Chengbei Zhang is quite proud. He found that his son really has a talent for making films, and he is proud of being a father.

    —This is the inheritance of his father’s talent!

    The more Zhang Chengbei thinks, the more beautiful he is. If it weren’t for his age now, he would imagine that he was the delayed film director.

    “Old Lu, your little Qin has some discerning eyes and sees that my son Zhang Yichao looks like me. Look at how good my photos are, hey, my son may really be real in the future. Become a great director.”

    “When you are old and retired, I will ask my son to assign you the role of a fishing uncle in the movie. What do you think?”

    Lu Yan smiled lightly: “I don’t think so.”

    “Old Zhang, man, you have to take one step at a time. You should wait for your son to be admitted to the film university first, and then think about the future.”

    Zhang Chengbei: “…”

    The elementary school built by sisters Qin Rou in Dajiao Village has been completed. Although there is not much formaldehyde and other materials at the moment, Qin Rou still intends to ventilate for a few months, and then invest in the spring of 1983 use.

    The children will be able to put on their new school uniforms and go to school happily. The new school is very beautiful and there are many exercise facilities, such as parallel bars, basketball courts and table tennis. ball table etc…

    There is a half-human-high statue of a pearl oyster with pearls at the entrance of the school.

    After the construction was completed, the children in the village were all outside the school to watch the beauty of the new campus.

    Qin Rou’s pearl craft garden has also been built, just in time for the high production of pearls this year, and the pearls of all pearl cultivation factories are bursting. Maybe it was a good weather last year, or it may be some other reason. Mortality is low, pearls are good and big, and every farm is filled with the joy of a bumper harvest.

    After Qin Rou sold some of her pearls, a large number of pearls remained, not only in their Xunrou pearl cultivation factory, but also in other pearl cultivation factories.

    “Only good pearls are exported, but to whom do you sell so many ordinary pearls?”

    “Is it possible that they were thrown away?”

    “Although it’s a little smaller, and the surface is still a little bit, but you look at the gloss, isn’t it pretty in your hand? You can’t see it if you don’t look carefully? This pearl Isn’t it pretty?”

    “These are some good pearls too.”

    …

      Is it yellowing in the warehouse?

    Although the high-quality pearls sold have kept the major breeding factories from losing money and made a small profit, the backlog of ordinary pearls cannot be sold, causing all the people in the breeding factories to have a headache.

    Compared with other breeding factories, Qin Rou’s Xunrou Pearl Factory has a backlog of more ordinary pearls.

      Can the finished pearl powder be poured into the sea?

    What a waste?

    “Director Qin, aren’t you worried at all? I think your factory is running out of pearls.”

    “Oh, by the way, you also built a pearl craft garden. You said that you have a lot of money in your pocket. If you don’t say that you can use it for other purposes, what’s the use of this craft garden? ?”

    “We all cultivate pearls. How many people can visit your craft garden throughout the year?”

    Lin Guisheng was also anxious. Although he made money from pearl farming, he did not think pearl farming was a good way out. Every day, more and more pearl farmers were raised. More pearls have been produced, coupled with the improvement of the cultivation and insertion technology in the experimental station. After scientific management of cultivation, the cultivation time of pearls has been greatly shortened. No matter how many pearls there are in the future, there will be no sales. What should they do?

    Those who are engaged in pearl foreign trade also know that what is rare is more expensive, these people do not buy a lot of pearls, and the price of pearls has to come down.

    The price this year is not as good as last year, which is very annoying.

    Lin Guisheng is preparing to sell the Guirou Pearl Cultivation Factory and take the money to do business in Guangcheng. Now the clothing business in Guangcheng is doing well, and there are countless orders from outside. At the top of the list, there is a large demand for clothes in the mainland market, and it is obvious that opening a clothing factory can make a lot of money.

    Lin Guisheng was thinking about this, and he received a call from Guangcheng:

    “Brother Lin, there is a night market in Guangcheng! Do you know what a night market is?”

    “Oh, you really have to come to Guangcheng to see the bustling night market here, many people set up stalls in the night market to sell clothes and shoes, the crowd is crowded, you can’t stand, all night is full of people…”

    “The night market in summer is very lively.”

    “Good sale, the clothes in this night market are very good, now who doesn’t like to buy clothes, everyone loves to buy clothes, and a night market stall can make this amount a day, hey, it’s hard work point.”

    “This dress has a lot to do with it, and my brothers also plan to invest in making clothes.”

    …

    Lin Guisheng thought about it many times, and finally decided to sell the Guirou Pearl Factory, leave Qiongzhou Island, and go to Guangcheng. That is a businessman’s paradise and make a lot of money by the Pearl River.

      .

    “The future is not very good on this island. To make a lot of money, I still have to go to Guangcheng. Fortunately, I have accumulated a lot of money, and I can do business in Guangcheng.”

    His Guirou Pearl Factory was sold to the owner of the Shrimp Rou Pearl Factory. Lin Guisheng distributed the dividends to his relatives who had previously invested in them. He only said that he did not want to dry pearl cultivation. There are too many factories, and there is a backlog of pearls that cannot be sold.”

    “Life is much better now than in previous years. Everyone has to buy several sets of new clothes every year, but who would buy so many pearl necklaces?”

    The pearl factory makes money, but it can’t make a lot of money at present. Lin Guisheng thought that a person with culture, knowledge and experience like himself must go to Guangcheng to make money.

    In addition, he has enough principal now, and he does not want to set up a factory in partnership with his group of relatives. The sooner he gets out, the better.

    Lin Guisheng said goodbye to Cui Mingzhan before leaving.

    “Cui Mingzhan, are you still troubled by love?” Lin Guisheng really didn’t know what to say about this old man.

    I hanged on a tree.

    Cui Mingzhan sighed: “Menglan is worried about the pearls in the factory, and I am also worried about her.”

    “You hurry up and find another suitable partner, this woman is not allowed to develop her vision, the woman surnamed Qin was lucky and made a lot of money, but she was stupid and didn’t go. To do some other business, I went to get a pearl craft garden.”

    “What’s the use of this craft garden? Few people in our country have the habit of wearing pearls. Many people have never seen pearls, let alone want to buy them.”

    Cui Mingzhan said: “I think the director of Xiao Qin is a visionary. I went to the pearl craft garden to see it, it is very beautiful.”

      farther.”

    “It’s not those foreigners who have nothing to do every day, who are people from our country who come to the island for nothing?”

    Cui Mingzhan said: “Yecheng is not just saying that it wants to engage in tourism, but there are several new travel agencies opened in Guangcheng.”

    “How many people can come to travel? Come here to see the Pearl King? The pearls are nothing to look at…” Lin Guisheng had no interest in the pearl business at first, but he thought about making pearls because he was eager to make money. Farming, he has earned a lot of principal at the moment, he is like a fish jumping out of the water, going to swim in a wider sea.

    Fish into the sea.

    Cui Mingzhan said goodbye to him: “We are destined to see you again.”

    “Goodbye by fate.” Lin Guisheng smiled: “When I come back in a few years, maybe you still haven’t changed, and you are still raising pearls on the island.”

    “I love the taste of opening pearls.”

    “Then take it easy.”

    Lin Guisheng left Qiongzhou Island.

    Qin Rou’s pearl craft garden is about to be properly arranged, and the processing factory attached to the breeding factory is also working overtime to make pearl necklaces, pearl earrings, pearl bracelets and other handicrafts and pearl powder.

      , well into a good time of the year.

    Qin Rou went to Yecheng Tourism Bureau in advance to ask for the contact addresses and methods of many travel agencies, and prepared various video promotional materials for Qiongzhou Island Pearls, and she also made advertising leaflets by herself , One by one, go to the major travel agencies to contact each other, hoping to open up the pearl scenic tourism route of Qiongzhou Island.

    When contacting the travel agency, Qin Rou called Xie Ruan, the calligraphy teacher of Zhouzhou Dumpling’s two children, of course, there was no other reason for him, but this guy The lips are too talkative.
