114. New Year's Eve
Just after dawn, Lu Tian called, saying that his family watched the Spring Festival Gala yesterday, and the funniest program was Su Butong's. He asked him if he was free today. Mr. Bai Xing wanted to see him. Su Butong
So I took Futaba and went to pay New Year greetings.
When we arrived at Mr. Bai Xing's place, Mr. Bai Xing got up early and was practicing Tai Chi. Su Butong kowtowed to Mr. Bai Xing a few times without saying a word, and wished Mr. Bai Xing a happy new year and all the best. He also gave Mr. Bai Xing a big red envelope with a few buns in it.
One hundred yuan red envelope.
Mr. Shirahoshi was so happy that he said that he hadn’t received a red envelope for many years. After seeing Futaba and knowing that she was Japanese, Mr. Shirahoshi didn’t have any grudges. After all, people from their generation were not blindly anti-Japanese, and they knew that Japan also had
Japanese people from the left, right, and left also gave a lot of help to China. There were also Japanese doctors in the army at that time, and they saved the lives of many Chinese soldiers.
Mr. Shirahoshi held Futaba's hand and entered the house. Several grandchildren also came to pay New Year greetings. Seeing the red envelope in his hand, he jokingly asked Mr. Shirahoshi: "Grandpa, you are still receiving red envelopes at such an old age?"
Then do you want to give one to my little girl too?"
Mr. Bai Xing treated this red envelope like a treasure: "Hey, why don't I take what the big capitalists gave me? I've prepared extra for you, and I'll give it to you as soon as you finish kowtowing to me."
"Ah, our family didn't have such rules before. Isn't this the feudal custom of the old society?" Several grandsons and grandsons quit.
"It didn't happen before, but it has started this year. The customs in feudal society are not all bad. Isn't this New Year thing passed down from generation to generation? If you don't kowtow this year, you won't get any red envelopes." Mr. Bai Xing acted like a child.
Lu Tian poked Su Butong: "Yes, I knew something was going to happen when I saw you kowtow just now. Now it's better. If you finish the meal by yourself, we will all kowtow too."
Su Butong's mouth twitched: "Are you okay?"
"It's okay, just wait and get beaten." After Lu Tian whispered to Su Butong, he kowtowed to Mr. Bai Xing with his brothers, and then helped him introduce his two brothers.
"This is my eldest brother, Lu Yu, second brother, Lu Yun. I am the youngest in the family. There are also a few cousins, Yao Guoqing, Pei Jiajun..." After a few people kowtowed, they gathered together, but Lu Tian was introducing them.
.
Lu Yu and Lu Yun were both soldiers, and they were serious in speech. They got to know Su Butong for a while and then went back. But Yao Guoqing and Pei Jiajun pulled Su Butong and asked, "What are you doing, coming to your house to kowtow early in the morning?"
"Our family used to have a custom of kowtowing to the elderly during the New Year..." Su Butong was really wronged. Su Wei in his previous life and Su Budong in this life have a combined experience of forty years, but the rule in the family is to kowtow during the New Year.
of.
Yao Guoqing and Pei Jiajun had known Su Butong's name for a long time. Seeing that he was here, they talked to him about the development of the domestic gaming industry. One of them is a top student who graduated from Tsinghua University and is now working as a substitute at the grassroots level. The other is
Section-level cadres of the Ministry of Culture.
After chatting for a while, someone called Su Butong and said that the old man had something to do with him. Su Butong followed him.
Entering the old man's study, the old man asked him: "Do you know why I called you here today?"
Su Butong thought for a moment, "Is it because I'm going to Treasure Island tomorrow?"
The old man nodded: "That's right, you can tell the truth at first glance."
Su Butong sat upright and said, "Old man, tell me."
Mr. Bai Xing said: "After our analysis, Mr. Jian Feng from Baodao may or may not see you. It is more likely that he will see you."
Su Butong asked: "Why would Mr. Jian Feng want to see me?"
Mr. Bai Xing smiled and said: "After Mr. Yixian unfortunately died of illness, in order to protect Mr. Jian Feng from the domestic situation at that time, your grandfather escorted Mr. Jian Feng all the way to the Red Rakshasa. Although Mr. Jian Feng has never said this in public.
It's a piece of history, but we are all familiar with it. So as a descendant of Su Jianglong, you are naturally qualified to meet Mr. Jian Feng."
Su Butong thought to himself: "So that's it."
Mr. Bai Xing mentioned a few more precautions, and Su Butong carefully wrote them down one by one.
The two of them were almost done talking, and then Mr. Bai Xing said: "One more thing, a few old subordinates came to see me recently. I heard that your company's salary is relatively high, and they want to arrange a few cadres to work with you. Look at this.
Will it be accomplished?"
When Su Butong heard this, his head got bigger. He couldn't refuse Mr. Bai Xing directly. Of course Zhan Long was short of people now, but what he was short of was professional talents in game production, art talents, composer talents, and military personnel. Of course he would welcome them.
, but the logistics staff are already full, so he really doesn’t know how to open this.
"What's the matter? If you have any difficulties, just tell me if you have any. I'll solve it for you. If you can't, find someone to help you. Budong, I know it's not easy for a business to start, but you were considered a domestic enterprise before.
The company has set an example, and it is not reasonable to want people at this time." Mr. Bai Xing's hidden secret made it difficult for Su Butong to say that he didn't want people to come.
So Su Budong said: "Old man, I have a plan, do you think this will work? I plan to find some places with better scenery near the capital next spring to develop a film and television city. This film and television city can be used for
In the future, filming movies and TV series can, secondly, drive local tourism, and thirdly, it can be used as a model for games. If there are many people, I would like to invest a sum of money and open an independent film and television city company." Su Butong actually said
I have long had this idea. Now that prices in China are low, it means that the cost of building a film and television city is low. The film and television city is different from commercial housing. What Su Budong wants to build are imitations of buildings from the Han, Tang, Ming and Qing dynasties, such as the Weiyang Palace of the Han Dynasty.
, Daming Palace of the Tang Dynasty, gardens of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, etc. Let these buildings with the characteristics of the times reappear in the world, and let people re-examine the ancient Chinese lifestyle. There are still some masters in the construction industry in China who are still there, with their guidance.
, these things are not a problem.
I am very fortunate to my country, and I am very fortunate to my descendants.
After a long time, Mr. Bai Xing nodded: "Let them go. If they don't come up with something, come find me."
Only then did Su Butong pass the test.
After talking for a while, Su Butong saw Mr. Bai Xing's life secretary winking at him. He immediately understood the meaning and stood up to leave.
Mr. Bai Xing said: "I know you have many things to do, so I won't let you eat here."
When he went out, he found Lu Tian's mother waiting for him, so he smiled and asked, "Auntie, what's wrong?"
Mother Lu smiled and said, "Budong, there may be a small matter that I want to trouble you with."
Su Butong said: "As you say, I will help you as much as I can."
Lu's mother told her story. It turned out that her nephew had been dissatisfied with the company he was assigned to after graduating from college. He didn't want to stay in the system and wanted to go overseas and start a company. Lu's mother watched her nephew grow up.
Yes, how much does he need to be a nun? So I wanted Su Butong to arrange a position for him and try working in the company first.
Su Butong listened and asked with a smile: "Auntie, why don't you just ask Lu Tian for this matter?"
Lu's mother ignored Su Budong and scolded her with a smile: "I don't know what that damn kid is thinking. He cannot accept his relatives in the company unless he wants to learn from you."
Su Butong said speechlessly: "In this case, I happen to be planning to open a film and television company after the year. I can't let him go there. My game company will be busier after the year, and there will be some personnel changes."
Mother Lu nodded: "As long as you want him to win, I won't say anything else."
Subutong and Futaba said goodbye and left.
Back at the company, Subutong and Futaba began to pack their luggage. Subutong packed quickly, but Futaba packed slowly. So Subutong took advantage of his free time to write about Zichuan again, and moved the plot forward.
Aunt Wang Tian and his family have all gone back today. There is food in the company cafeteria, but Su Butong doesn’t like to eat very much. Futaba also seems to have no appetite. Su Butong said: "Shall I cook you something delicious?"
"I want to eat sashimi, rice balls, and kelp soup." Futaba said.
"There's no fresh fish for the sashimi. What should I do if I get a bad stomach? I'll make the remaining two."
Take Futaba to the canteen. When the chef saw Su Butong coming, he wanted to show off his skills in front of Su Butong, but Su Butong refused with a smile. He asked for rice from the kitchen and started cooking in the kitchen. From Futaba
Take out two grilled fish fillets from the snacks, break an egg into pieces, beat the egg into fine pieces, shape a rice ball with your hands, add the shredded grilled fish fillets into the rice ball, and dip the egg foam on the rice. One
The simple rice balls are finally made.
Subutong made one, and Futaba ate one. But when Subutong thought it was almost done, he found that not a single rice ball was missing on the table. He couldn't help but laugh, "Eat slowly, don't choke."
Futaba nodded obediently.
Su Butong started making seaweed soup again.
Japanese kelp soup requires a stone pot. Fortunately, Zhanlong Kitchen has everything. Su Butong added dried fish to the stone pot to make it fresh, and added some chives and dried seaweed. Boil the water and soak it in warm water.
Open the kelp. After the broth is cooked, add the soaked kelp. Simply process the kelp into short kelp that is easier to eat. Add some egg drop, ham, and chopped green onion.
Chapter completed!
