Chapter 1159: Fierce Fight! Master and Apprentice 28 (B)
Every year, in the early morning of the festival, there will be a repeat scene, but there are fewer people on the streets who get drunk on the spot after a night of partying, and most of the middle and lower areas will reach zero degrees at night, and sleeping outside is likely to freeze to death.
On a street on the middle floor, a man looked anxious in the lobby on the first floor of a clinic.
The man kept smoking a cigarette and looked anxious, when a large number of people came to the street of the clinic.
"Lao Li, have you given birth?"
The man was surprised to see that a large number of relatives and friends had come over, and he was a little surprised.
"Why are you here? It was my wife who gave birth to the child, and it was not you who gave birth to the child. ”
At this time, many people took out a red envelope and stuffed it into the man's hand, the man's name is Li Qin, a technician in the area, last year's wife finally conceived a child, and his wife was rushed to the clinic with abdominal pain at 5 o'clock in the morning.
Many people in this district are surnamed Li, although many people are not related by blood, but gradually in the past, under the leadership of a person surnamed Li, everyone took root in District 58, where the surname Li is more like a united clan, and many people understand the importance of uniting together, the reason is that because the surname Li is a big surname, someone took the lead, everything in the district is relatively stable, and this district is also the only area where there are no criminal gangs in the middle area.
In recent years, a large number of people with the surname Li have been attracted to it, and this place is gradually becoming more like a clan area, because the economy is stable, everyone is living well, and the price is also the most stable district in the middle of the city.
"I informed the others."
A fat woman said, Li Qin smiled embarrassedly, accepted everyone's red envelopes, and kept thanking him, although there was not much money, but when the New Year's holidays or some families encountered major changes, all the people surnamed Li in the district would go over and race a red envelope, dozens of dollars more, hundreds of dollars, a few less, and the most important thing is the heart.
At this time, a man who seemed to have just gotten up from the bed ran over, hurriedly took out 500 yuan from his pocket, and looked around left and right.
"Li Yin, are there any extra red envelopes?"
As the man spoke, a woman with a bag took out a red envelope from her pocket on the periphery of a person who was surrounding the clinic entrance.
"Li Ling, you are still so reckless, you will disgrace your son who is a high-ranking official in the future."
Li Ling walked over awkwardly and stuffed the red envelope into Li Qin's hand.
"Li Ling, give so much, it's inappropriate, it's inappropriate."
Many people laughed for a while, everyone knew that Li Ling's son is now the most promising person in the entire 58 district, he was admitted to the Divine Academy ten years ago, and now he is a special management officer, not only does the family have a living allowance of 500 yuan per month, but his son's monthly salary is also very high.
"What's right and what's not suitable."
Li Ling said, at this time, there was a cry in the delivery room, and everyone applauded and clapped.
Li Qin waited with a smile, and after a while, a nurse took out a baby who had just given birth.
"It's a boy."
Li Ling immediately held Li Qin's hand and kept saying congratulations, there was laughter all around, the neighbors surnamed Li and some people with foreign surnames also came over, and the whole street was full of people at this time, comparable to the celebration of a festival, and the management officer of the area also brought people over to congratulate.
He naturally knows that Li Qin and Li Ling have been playmates since childhood, and the relationship between the two is not ordinary, and Li Ling's son Li Xin will come over to review economic problems this year, as always.
"If you want to register your name, have you chosen a name?"
Li Ling asked, and for a while Li Qin was a little embarrassed, and the neighbors and friends around him all started talking.
Li Qin looked at the flag of District 58 fluttering across the street, and thought of it for a while.
"Let's call Leon."
"What's the name of Ang? Sounds weird. ”
Li Yin, the woman who had just carried the bag, muttered, and many people laughed.
"I just hope that my son will always be able to stand upright and be a man in the future."
The people in the street applauded, and the steward came over with a congratulatory gift.
"Congratulations, congratulations."
At this time, an old woman in the crowd was helped out of the way, many people took the initiative to get out of the way, the old man was wearing colorful clothes, and there was a head ring inlaid with green gems on her head, she was the oldest in the local Li clan, she was 88 years old, she would do some strange fortune-telling and divination.
"Grandma Li, please show this child."
The old man nodded, and after walking over to know the child's date and name, he looked at the child who was nursing in the delivery room with a dull gaze, walked over and took her little hand and said.
"This child will not be ordinary in the future, he is a rich and noble person, but one thing needs to be remembered, in the first half of her life, she should try to avoid a girl with a foreign surname, that is a very beautiful girl, she will hinder the fortune of this child, once she meets her, the fate of this child will change, and even bring disaster to the entire person surnamed Li."
For a while, everyone present exclaimed, Grandma Li's calculation was very accurate, and many people's affairs were told by her, including Li Ling's son Li Xin, who was very poor when Li Ling's family of three came here in the morning.
Grandma Li said at the time that as long as the time was ripe, their son Li Xin would bring wealth and power to their family, and now Grandma Li's words have been fulfilled.
The people around cheered, on such a happy day, this is the second person surnamed Li who is rich and noble in Grandma Li's fable.
Although the birth rate in the city is very low now, it is not so low that no children are born, and on January 1, hundreds of children were born.
At 7:15 a.m., with a burst of cheers, people rushed into the street, and more and more people rushed out of the house and towards the clinic hospital.
At 7 o'clock sharp, everyone in the city received a message from Congress that the lifespan vaccine had been fully developed, and it only needed to be vaccinated at a designated medical center nearby, and it was necessary to keep it on an empty stomach, and everyone in the city would be vaccinated in the next 3 months.
There are more and more people on the streets, and at this time, some clinics that are medical points have been blocked and long queues have been lined up, and everyone wants to be vaccinated as soon as possible to avoid the next generation of deformed, blight, abnormal physical defects in the process of growth, and other diseases, and the most important thing is to extend the life expectancy to between 150 years old, which is the best gift received at the beginning of the new year for most people.
Many people smiled with relief, and many businessmen and family members had already been vaccinated a few hours earlier, and after the vaccine, the body would experience rejection for several days, possibly accompanied by low-grade fever and general malaise, and Congress began to publish some information on its website.
What many people didn't expect was that the bosses of many companies gave paid leave for the first time, but those who have been vaccinated can take three days off, and these three days will be paid according to their normal salary.
The city seems to be ready to welcome more people, after all, the area of the city is 120 districts is very large, and the population of many districts has dropped to less than 10,000, and it will be reduced to dead zones as soon as possible.
The new round of population growth means that the city's economy, which has been unchanged and has begun to solidify and scab, will usher in very high growth in the coming days.
The maternity subsidy accumulated in various districts of the city over the years can fully meet the needs of a large number of newborns, and no one in the local administration dares to touch this money, because once it is moved, it will be completely finished.
Today is a day full of hope for most people, and the future is good for most people, and Congress has promised that the future will gradually introduce two types of security systems: medical care and pension.
For businessmen and families, this means that a new round of business opportunities is coming, as early as two months ago, a large number of companies applied for the right to deal in children's goods, and a large number of applications were submitted, but so far, the National Assembly has not approved any of them.
At this time, on the lawn of Angus's house, there were more than a dozen take-off and landing planes, and a large number of students from the school had already come, Alpha was holding a syringe and looking at his mother with a smile.
"Mom, it's fine, but when I inject it, I will have continuous pain for about half an hour."
Avano had been vaccinated by his daughter's own hands, and he was sitting in a shack, looking miserable.
"Tap my daughter."
Alpha said with a smile.
"It's okay, you can rest well today, I will take care of everything in this manor with my classmates in the next few days, you can have a good rest for a few days."
More than 100 students from the school came early this morning and have begun to vaccinate more than 4,000 people from the Angus family and its family.
The news media has begun to report on the very important start of the new year for the whole city, and the streets are full of people, and some people who have arrived at the health care center and see that it is impossible to wait for the vaccination are back on the streets, intending to continue preparing for the all-night party.
"Mom, don't be so nervous, relax."
Alpha smiled, looking at his mother, she was most afraid of the injection, and after a while, Violet finished the injection with a painful grin, and Alpha smiled and looked at the rest of the people who were still in line at home.
"Miss, if we don't inject again tomorrow, let you do these jobs........"
"It's okay, let's just come, you can rest for a few days."
At this time, Alpha took advantage of the gap between injections and took out the phone.
"Fat brother, are you coming today?"
"it, if you can come over and work for me, I'll go over, how about Alpha."
Alpha smiled a little embarrassedly, she didn't like the upper class in Locke's mouth very much, Locke would tell them about some of the things he had seen in the upper class every time he came back, and unlike King Xue, who went to the banquet from time to time but never revealed anything, Locke talked endlessly.
At this time, Locke hung up the phone, and looked angrily at the sun-drenched courtyard, where Hawke was holding his wife Kailin and talking about something, and their faces were full of happiness.
"Okay, okay? Have you eaten enough? ”
Kailin hurriedly pushed Hawke away, and Locke crouched on the ground and poked the lawn with his fingers.
"Chubby, let's go."
Hawke jumped out of the courtyard wall as he spoke, and Locke said hello to Kailin and climbed out of the courtyard wall.
"When did I say I could retire?"
Locke feels that things are getting more and more wrong, he seems to be trapped, and now Hawke often lets himself go to banquets alone, everything at the banquet Locke is fed up, money, power, and sex are three things, it is extremely laborious to deal with, and if you accidentally drop the truth or other things, you will be in trouble, and Locke wants to get out of this state as soon as possible.
"Hawk, don't you want to throw the mess to me, and then walk away by yourself, and hold your beauty and squeamish every day to eat, drink, and have fun?"
Hawke paused and immediately laughed.
"What do you think about Chubby, think about it carefully, your classmates, which one is not more capable than you?"
Locke thought about it this way, so he should save money for the gods to continue working for a few years.
"By the way, Chubby, aren't there many beauties at the banquet who take the initiative to approach you and want to get along with you?"
Locke shook his head.
"How dare I ask for it? If you ask for it, you have to agree to the other party's conditions, and I'm not an idiot, and those women, I can't handle it, Hawke, are you really not lying to me? ”
Hawke smiled and nodded.
"Don't worry, Chubby, when I retire, you can retire with me."
Today is another busy day, and Locke went to Congress at 4 o'clock last night to prepare for a specific video conference explanation on the research and development of the life-saving vaccine announced by Congress today.
"Really let me say?"
Locke asked, and Hawke, who had already stepped into the take-off and landing plane, nodded.
"It's okay, you have to temper it well, after all, I always say it alone, the people are somewhat aesthetically fatigued, you look very honest, didn't the first few TV speeches have a good effect!"
Locke patted his stomach.
"You mean I'm fat, bastard."
8:10 a.m
The video conference has been going on for nearly 10 minutes, and many people who are still queuing up for vaccinations are watching, but to the surprise of many people, the TV speech this time turned out to be not Hawke, but Locke, the deputy head of the monitoring team.
"This little fat man speaks very well."
Someone in the crowd said it, and many people nodded in agreement with a smile.
"yes, I always think that Hawk guy is too serious, this little fat guy has a good smile."
"It's honest and honest to look at."
There are a lot of people in the city, but many people in the upper class have stopped paying attention to these things, and some big families in the upper class have their own personal doctors and medical teams, and most of them don't need to go to the hospital to queue up for injections, just at home, and most of them are still preparing for the official dinner tonight.
"How's it going?"
Jean was standing at the fence of a courtyard, holding a cigarette in his hand, and not far from Jean, Ji Yun was breastfeeding his child.
"Mr. Jean, why haven't you come here lately, you haven't come to my house for a long time, do you want to eat at our house tonight?"
Jean smiled and shook his head helplessly.
"I'm sorry Xiao Yun, I'm busy with a lot of things right now, this kid's smiling face is very good."
Ji Yun sighed.
"I'm afraid that he will inherit his father's introverted personality, you can tell me about Mr. Jean, my husband has recently lost another business, and the family is already counting him."
"Just take your time, no one can do everything well from the beginning."
Jean smiled, looking at the family gathering place below First Avenue, he would come and visit from time to time, and there were many friends that Gene knew.
"By the way, Mr. Jean, the youngest son of the Kleiman family is going to marry the daughter of the Chloe family tonight, will you come?"
Jean said after pondering for a moment.
"Forget it, I used to run around a lot when Mr. Kleiman was still alive, but I don't know much about the generation in their family these days."
Ji Yun walked in front of Jean with the child in her arms and handed the child to Jean, who held Ji Mo in his arms, smiled and made a grimace to tease the little baby, and the little baby in his arms smiled.
"When this kid grows up, I hope Mr. Jean can take some time to teach him."
"Aren't you worried?"
Jean said, Ji Yun shook his head.
"We are more relieved to teach Mr. Jean, after all, Mr. Jean, the people you brought out are all excellent, this is obvious to all of us, that Locke is really good, he will attend the wedding ceremony of the Kleiman family and the Chloe family tonight."
"Xiaopang, that guy is really good, by the way, Ji Yun, do you have a suitable unmarried girl of the right age, help Xiaopang introduce it."
Ji Yun was a little surprised.
"Mr. Jean, Mr. Locke is very popular with girls at banquets, don't you know, many girls in the family want to marry him."
Jean laughed.
"Then it seems that my worries are unnecessary, by the way, Xiao Yun, you can go to the Chen family to see Wilsie when you have time, she seems to be ........ now"
Ji Yun sighed.
"I've been there a few times, but to be honest, although we used to be classmates, my relationship with her is not very good, Freya and her relationship may be very good, but recently Freya has hardly been home, isn't Freya almost not coming home?"
Jean looked into the distance with some helplessness.
"Maybe I should have stopped her the night she got married."
"I don't think so, Mr. Jean, even if you stop it, what is this, the marriage of the family is inevitable, you should know this better than anyone else, you don't look like a god at all, more like a qualified nanny, haha!"
Jean smiled and held up Ji Mo, the child clicked and laughed, and then Jean returned Ji Mo to his mother Ji Yun.
"I'm sorry Xiao Yun, I have to go to Jiang's house now."
As he spoke, Jean jumped directly out of the fence, and Ji Yun behind him waved his hand.
Jean strolled through the elegant gathering place of small and medium-sized families, and greeted many people along the way, and soon Jean followed the path directly to Jiang's house, which was located at the end of First Avenue.
As soon as he entered the courtyard wall of Jiang's house, the alarm sounded at this time, and Jean walked quickly to the main mansion in the distance, where a large number of star directors, playwrights, painters, and news media company owners from all walks of life in the film and television area gathered on the lawn of Jiang's house.
At this moment, a woman in a black suit ran over and bowed.
"Lord Jean, Mr. Jiang Hao and Ms. Honghong are waiting for you."
Jean walked quickly to the gate of the mansion, for a while many female stars noticed Jean, and they all looked at it in surprise, there was a commotion at the door of the mansion, the crowd separated, stood up straight on both sides, bowed, Jean smiled and nodded to both sides and entered the mansion.
Soon Jean came to a large living room on the second floor, Jiang Hao and Honghong stood in the living room, the husband and wife held hands and bowed to Jean.
"Lord Jean, I've been waiting for a long time!"
Jiang Hao smiled, hurriedly took out a bottle of wine that looked expensive from the cabinet, poured a glass for Jean, and after the door behind him closed, Jean sat on the sofa in the living room.
"I received a contact from you, Lord Jean, last night, and we waited here early this morning, what is the matter?"
Jiang Hao looked at Jean suspiciously, and after Honghong's eyes rolled, he smiled and walked over with the wine bottle.
"Is it a problem of drug flooding in the film and television area?"
Jean nodded.
"It's good that you know, I won't repeat it, Honghong, you are the president of the Entertainment Association!"
Honghong smiled and nodded.
"I know Mr. Jean, I'll deal with it, that's fine, or we announce some iron rules, once a person is found in the film and television area to consume illegal drugs, how about never hiring."
Jean nodded.
"One more thing! It's not Area 29, I hope you two can understand. ”
Jiang Hao smiled and nodded.
"But there are some things that can't be completely eliminated, and the drug is not our own reason, how can we say it well on the side of the medical association! Mr. Jean, you'll have to go over and talk about it, this ........"
Jean stood up, took a sip of the wine, then turned and walked to the back window, jumping onto the window.
"Very delicious wine, thank you for the hospitality!"
After Jean left, the husband and wife looked at each other and smiled, and came to the large balcony on the second floor near the main entrance of the mansion holding hands, looking at the large number of happy people below, Jiang Hao sighed helplessly.
"It's true, you've been warned again and again, that people are really creatures with no self-control at all."
Honghong took a glass of wine, took a sip and shook her head.
"That woman's next step is to replace it with this woman."
Saying that, Honghong took out her mobile phone, and after clicking on it, Jiang Hao took a look, an actress named Chense, who has participated in many small-budget movies, looks average, and is not too beautiful.
"Then what is Ida going to do?"
"She doesn't fit into this circle, drive her away, I don't want to see her doing pimp business at banquets in the future."
Jiang Hao nodded thoughtfully.
"But ah, wife, this kind of thing is not good, although that woman is an old bustard, but it is still a little useful."
Jiang Hao said very carefully, he didn't dare to offend this woman at all, because now the Jiang family can have such brilliance, and her credit is completely indispensable, but because she cheated during Honghong's pregnancy, she had a mental breakdown and miscarriage, and her family's career plummeted.
After that, Jiang Hao didn't dare to mess around anymore, she listened to Honghong for many things, she is now the absolute ruler of the Jiang family, and she can only be regarded as the second.
"Can't you hear what Mr. Jean means?"
Jiang Hao was puzzled for a long time.
"What do you mean?"
"Can you understand the difference between Mr. Jean drinking the wine I poured and not the one you poured you?"
Jiang Hao blinked.
"Isn't it just a glass of wine?"
"He said at the beginning that I was the president of the Entertainment Association, don't you understand, what kind of are you going to talk about the medical association, you idiot."
Honghong pinched and fried the wine glass, Jiang Hao was startled, and then she directly rubbed her hand on Jiang Hao's clothes.
"If we don't make a little bit of a show, or a little bit of change, Mr. Jean will do something about the entertainment industry next, you idiot, do you really think that you are the boss if you have money?"
Jiang Hao couldn't say a word for a long time, and he didn't dare to disobey his wife's intentions, nodded and smiled and hurriedly took Honghong's hand.
"I'll see if there's any breakage! But wife, why would you use such a nameless little actor? ”
Honghong laughed.
"Beckinsale recommended."
Suddenly, Jiang Hao's eyes lit up.
"It's the owner of the studio on East 6th Street in the film and television district."
"You remember!"
Jiang Hao said with a smile.
"Of course, after all, she is a rare beauty......."
"Idiot, she is indeed very beautiful, but she is a very terrible woman, this actor called Chense, in the past 3 years, she has recommended 1037 times, and there are other more or less small actors, more than 1,000 times, less than hundreds of times, including film directors, screenwriters, etc., this time I will also use a new director, with a tentative investment of 10 million."
Saying that, Honghong clicked on another page of information, it was a movie called "The Queen", and the script was carefully selected and polished for a long time.
"Can this thing really sell for money?"
Jiang Hao asked suspiciously.
"Whether you can sell for money is the final say in the market, what is the current market? The share of movies and TV series is gradually decreasing, do you know why? What can be produced by shoddy production, as well as the trading of power and sex in the entertainment industry? Now there are a lot of sitcoms on the market, pick some out at random, they are better than the garbage produced in the film and television area, and if you don't do something, the entertainment industry will be doomed. ”
Jiang Hao sighed and looked carefully, the director was a person named Lanny, and the script was adapted by a person named Xingyuan who didn't know at all.
"10 million is already a big production, will it be too much, or 5 million."
Honghong grabbed Jiang Hao's ear.
"Listen to me or not!"
Jiang Hao nodded immediately.
"Listen, you must listen."
Honghong smiled, looked at the planner and producer, Beckinsale, and sneered.
"What a great woman."
"What's so powerful, I heard that when she first started in the film and television area, she starred in movies, but she didn't have much fame, and then she didn't seem to act in movies anymore and set up an entertainment company, but the actor who was recommended, oh yes, that Ida seems to have been recommended by her."
Honghong nodded.
"I've recently discovered something interesting, there are some awesome guys hidden in this city, has the food show done over there?"
Jiang Hao said with an embarrassed smile.
"That Wu Qun is really a weirdo, he didn't go on TV for 1 million, he was really a fool, he even asked for 100 million, maybe he was really crazy."
Honghong's eyes widened and she looked at Jiang Hao.
"Just give him 100 million."
"Honghong, are you drunk, we have already done it, he never wants to appear on TV for the rest of his life."
Honghong looked at Jiang Hao with a smug face in surprise.
"So you're just a fool, it's useless to say some things now, and there's no way to stop them, the guys who will stand at the top in the future, Wu Qun and Beckinsale will be two of the heavyweights!"
Jiang Hao swallowed, wanting to laugh, but he didn't dare to laugh, he turned around and walked up, intending to go down there to drink.
Honghong smiled and looked into the distance.
"There are too few people in this city who really know how to help others is to help themselves!"
