After many consecutive investment failures, Qiao Qiao did not give up, and with the encouragement of Shao Jingmo, she quickly regained her fighting spirit.
Next, under the guidance of Shao Jingmo's analysis, she used the 100 million that Shao Jingmo allocated to her to invest in a modern criminal investigation movie that was not very promising.
The subject of modern criminal investigation has never been very optimistic.
Moreover, Qiao Qiao knows that in the film and television industry, ancient themes are always the most popular, followed by modern urban themes, both of which will never lose market popularity.
But looking at the modern criminal investigation before us...
Qiao Qiao suddenly had some doubts about Shao Jingmo's vision. Maybe the financial and stock markets were what he was best at, but he wasn't actually that accurate in the film and television industry?
Shao Jingmo told her: "I don't know much about metaphysics, and I won't use Bagua Zhouyi to calculate the fate of this drama in advance. I will analyze the possibility of this drama breaking the data based on the production team you provided.
As for whether it will really explode in the end, it all depends on fate."
"Just what you said, I will vote one up or down." Qiao Qiao said with high morale.
Eleven months later, Qiao Qiao invested 100 million in a modern criminal investigation drama and it was successfully aired.
During the warm-up period before the broadcast, Qiao Qiao was quite nervous.
So she decided to ask Li Xiwu to accompany her to the hospital for a checkup first. If she was really pregnant, she would definitely come back with the checkup report and tell him without stopping.
Pei Jingzhou raised his eyelids and smacked his lips: "It depends on how you understand it."
Shao Jingmo's expression froze and he did not reach out to take it.
Qiao Qiao frowned in frustration, put all the braised pig's feet on the plate, and then continued to prepare the next dish.
The two of them were chatting about how the popularity of the modern criminal investigation drama Qiao Qiao invested in would increase in the future. In fact, Qiao Qiao's heart had already been refreshed countless times by the performance of this drama, and she would receive good news every day.
Shao Jingmo raised his eyebrows: "I don't think Mr. Pei sent his child to an old man just to live a different world with his wife."
Shao Jingmo smiled faintly, and then asked: "Where are your two children? Why didn't you bring them with you?"
Qiao Qiao waved her hands, indicating that she was fine, but she couldn't help it the next second, and squatted beside the kitchen trash can, retching uncontrollably.
When I went back in the evening, Li Xiwu was driving, so Pei Jingzhou drank some.
Fortunately, the ratings during the premiere period were not bad, and the popularity was also good. The producer and other investors contacted Qiao Qiao and asked her if she wanted to buy hot searches to increase the popularity.
After saying that, Shao Jingmo really waited for two or three minutes before reaching out and taking the pregnancy test report from Qiao Qiao.
Li Xiwu supported Qiao Qiao: "It's better to go to the hospital first."
Li Xiwu held the stove with one hand and raised his eyelids to look at Qiao Qiao with a smile on his face: "Normally I don't agree with being a high-profile person, but this time you should be floating and walk sideways."
Qiao Qiao didn't say a word to Shao Jingmo about what happened tonight.
Li Xiwu, who was standing nearby, was thoughtful. Possibilities that he had not thought of at first were already growing in his mind.
However, she was not in a hurry and would wait until dinner was over before mentioning the matter to Qiao Qiao.
-
The dishes tonight are particularly rich.
Qiao Qiao held a piece of starch sausage in her hand, raised her face and smiled: "I want to eat it."
These words made Qiao Qiao proud: "This is more satisfying than me acting in person."
Shao Jingmo asked: "Mr. Pei prefers cinnamon?"
Qiao Qiao slowly turned her head to look at Li Xiwu, without saying a word, but her expression looked a little uncomfortable.
Li Xiwu noticed it first and greeted him politely: "Mr. Shao."
Li Xiwu nodded: "I think it's possible, it depends on what you think."
What Li Xiwu said is not an exaggeration at all.
But while she was smiling, she suddenly felt something was wrong. At first she didn't take it seriously, thinking she was laughing too happily and couldn't hold back her anger.
She recalled that during the filming, she even went to the set. The set was full of veteran actors and actresses, which made her scalp numb.
Seeing Qiao Qiao sitting on the sofa with a bunch of barbecues and bags of snacks in front of her, Shao Jingmo was surprised and came over and asked, "Why did you buy so many snacks and barbecues?"
Qiao Qiao thought about it carefully: "It's probably about ten days late."
The sound of her retching was not loud, and the living room was some distance away from the kitchen, so Shao Jingmo outside did not hear it.
Qiao Qiao laughed.
Shao Jingmo filled Pei Jingzhou's tea cup with tea: "The world between two people is quite good."
After the feeling of nausea and vomiting disappeared, her whole body returned to the same as before. To make sure, she jumped twice in a restored state.
The success of this drama has indeed caused a huge stir in the industry.
Shao Jingmo did not stop her from eating these. He sat down next to her and tidied up the mess of barbecue and snacks in front of her: "You can eat what you want, but don't eat too much. Eating too much barbecue can easily cause enteritis. Also,
I can’t sleep at night after eating too much.”
Li Xiwu: "I'll accompany you."
Shao Jingmo took a jar of Tiger Roaring Rock Cinnamon from the drawer.
Qiao Qiao came closer and asked, "Isn't it a bit scary?"
Shao Jingmo smiled and said nothing.
-
At the door of the kitchen, Qiao Qiao looked out and said to Li Xiwu, "We get along very well."
"Hold on."
Anyway, as long as she stays on the set, she is very confident that this drama will be a hit.
"We picked them up from their grandmother's house after school. My wife and I plan to go back to the small courtyard tonight and won't take them with us." Pei Jingzhou finished speaking slowly and put down the tea cup.
"Hey, Baozi, don't tell me. If they fight, do you think Pei will always win, or my uncle?"
She knew that in this situation it would be better to go to the hospital. Although she had not tasted undercooked spring bamboo shoots, her sudden nausea was so severe that she might have suffered some damage to her gastrointestinal tract.
After Qiao Qiao felt better, she didn't want to go to the hospital anymore. She turned around and continued to fiddle with the things on the stove: "You have to start dinner quickly, otherwise it will be too late."
There is something in Pei Jingzhou’s words: “A world with multiple people may be more lively.”
Li Xiwu went into the kitchen to prepare dinner with Qiao Qiao. Pei Jingzhou's cooking skills were good at cooking his own dishes, but he couldn't read them alone and couldn't help the kitchen. He sat in the living room and read books to pass the time.
The atmosphere during the meal was also very good. Shao Jingmo brought out red wine. Before the meal, the four of them stood up to congratulate and celebrate Qiao Qiao's huge profit from the investment drama!
Qiao Qiao shrugged her shoulders and smiled: "Baozi, if you continue to praise me like this, I'll get carried away."
Qiao Qiao said in a serious tone: "As the saying goes, parents love their children for their own purposes. This sentence means the same thing to you and me."
Li Xiwu noticed something was wrong and came over to ask: "Did you forget to put something in?"
But Qiao Qiao had already prepared most of them before Li Xiwu arrived.
"No, I'll take it slow."
Qiao Qiao remained motionless as she held the plate.
He came with Li Xiwu, just half an hour before Shao Jingmo came back.
Several times during this period, Qiao Qiao wanted to drink more, but was interrupted and stopped by Li Xiwu. After the meal, Pei Jingzhou and Shao Jingmo sat down and chatted for a few words, and then began to clear away the dishes.
"I..." Qiao Qiao's expression solidified: "I injured my body when I fell into the sea, and it was not easy to conceive. In the past few years, I have been letting nature take its course. He was never in a hurry, and I didn't plan this. Now...
…”
Li Xiwu, who was washing vegetables, couldn't help laughing: "Are you still worried that they will fight?"
To celebrate the success of this investment, Qiao Qiao prepared many sumptuous ingredients in advance in the evening and invited Li Xiwu and Pei Jingzhou to her home.
"I really don't want to give you face." Li Xiwu drained all the washed dishes, picked up the corner of his apron and wiped his hands and said: "If there is a real fight, your family will indeed win. The fourth brother should have been earlier."
I was injured in country T last year, and my health has never been well."
Qiao Qiao looked at Li Xiwu with a worried look: "If Mr. Pei's health is not good, will your affairs be harmonious?"
"You should be happy." Li Xiwu said truthfully: "The industry is now talking about the success of this drama. The script is well written, the cast is well selected, and the production is very careful. Coupled with your large investment, let
This drama has more resources to select scenes, and now it is a win-win situation for directors, actors, investors, sponsors, and video websites."
Shao Jingmo noticed something was wrong with her and asked her: "Why are you laughing? You are so happy?"
After saying that, Qiao Qiao was stunned for the first time. She looked at Li Xiwu in disbelief: "...???"
Li Xiwu was startled for a moment, then burst into laughter: "Qiao'er, should I say that, you have quite a lot of waste in your head."
Qiao Qiao heard the sound and turned around to see Shao Jingmo standing at the door of the kitchen. She raised her eyebrows and smiled: "Uncle, go entertain Mr. Pei. Xiwu and I will take care of the kitchen. Dinner will begin soon."
Li Xiwu took advantage of this moment and pulled Qiao Qiao to the terrace.
Shao Jingmo knew that there would be visitors tonight, so he came back from the company early.
Shao Jingmo first went to the kitchen door and took a look to let Qiao Qiao know that he was back. However, Qiao Qiao, who was busy at this time, did not see the tall figure standing at the kitchen door.
"Well..." Qiao Qiao covered her mouth.
But as soon as she left the set, she couldn't help but wonder if the show would be a hit...
Qiao Qiao, who is in charge of the kitchen tonight, and Li Xiwu are responsible for helping others, such as washing vegetables, peeling garlic, chopping vegetables, etc.
"That's right." Qiao Qiao was modest at all.
Li Xiwu was really serious now. She asked Qiao Qiao: "How long has it been since your period?"
Li Xiwu was doubtful: "Are you sure?"
Shao Jingmo recognized Pei Jingzhou the first time he saw him and came over: "Thank you for your concern, Mr. Pei."
I am afraid that this expectation will be disappointed.
The color of the braised pig's trotters is very beautiful. The sauce is made with dark soy sauce. The smooth and tender pig's trotters are connected with the pork trotters. They look very tasty and soft, which makes people very appetizing. Although it does not make you feel sick, but
But she didn't really want to eat, she had no appetite.
The whole day passed peacefully.
Li Xiwu next to him was stunned: "What are you doing?"
Shao Jingmo never asked Qiao Qiao about her daily schedule.
"I understand what you said." Qiao Qiao nodded: "Then I will go to the hospital for a checkup tomorrow."
After making up her mind, Qiao Qiao went out as usual the next day. She told Shao Jingmo that she had made an appointment with Li Xiwu to play cards with her, but in fact, she slipped away to the hospital accompanied by Li Xiwu.
The tip of Qiao Qiao's nose suddenly sore.
Such high results were clearly visible in front of her eyes, and it was so eye-catching that Qiao Qiao could hardly believe that this drama would become so popular that the whole country would watch it.
Qiao Qiao chuckled: "I'm fine."
"It's really better." Qiao Qiao let out a breath and felt much more relaxed: "I don't know what happened just now, but suddenly I felt like my stomach was churning, I felt sick and retched, and I wanted to vomit but couldn't.
Come out and act like a normal person again."
Hearing the voice, Pei Jingzhou turned to look at Shao Jingmo, and smiled: "Mr. Shao, you are well."
Li Xiwu's heart suddenly rose, and he quickly stepped forward to help her catch the plate, put it aside, and supported Qiao Qiao: "Do you feel uncomfortable?"
Especially when Qiao Qiao and Li Xiwu went to play together, he wouldn't even ask. He would only ask her at meal times if she had eaten on time and pick her up at night, so he wouldn't think too much about it this time.
Pei Jingzhou: "My wife likes it, and so do I."
To use Li Xiwu's analysis: "With such a theme and team, coupled with such results, I dare say that there will be no more similar themes in the past two years."
But then, when she put the braised pig's trotters in the pot, the feeling that something was wrong suddenly came to her mind.
Li Xiwu gradually fell into deep thought.
In the past few years in the capital, although Shao Jingmo has never mentioned children, and she has never cared about them, if they really have children, he will definitely look forward to it, right?
He turned around and went to the cabinet at the bar. After opening the drawer, he turned around and asked Pei Jingzhou who was sitting on the sofa: "What kind of tea does Mr. Pei drink?"
At this time, Qiao Qiao and Li Xiwu were busy in the kitchen, talking and laughing, and the atmosphere was warm.
Although Li Xiwu had come from the past, his only experience had been many years ago. He didn't think about it for a while. He just thought that Qiao Qiao had a sudden gastrointestinal discomfort.
Shao Jingmo frowned: "What?"
Qiao Qiao bit her lip and smiled.
Qiao Qiao saw that Li Xiwu was nervous, and she also became nervous: "What's wrong, so serious all of a sudden?"
Qiao Qiao couldn't suppress the feeling of nausea, as if her stomach was churning, the nausea was very strong, but she couldn't vomit it out.
However, when she was helped by Li Xiwu to stand up, the nauseating feeling disappeared instantly.
Li Xiwu gently pushed Qiao Qiao's shoulder: "Who is the parent and who is the beloved son? You are really good at taking advantage of this."
After a while, Pei Jingzhou took the tea brewed by Shao Jingmo himself. He looked happy and praised the taste of cinnamon after tasting it.
"Um."
Li Xiwu's lips twitched and smiled: "Do you want to listen to the truth?"
Shao Jingmo nodded politely.
Qiao Qiao nodded and stood up with Li Xiwu's help.
Qiao Qiao put down the starch sausage and handed the pregnancy test report to Shao Jingmo: "You have upgraded."
As soon as he arrived home, he came in from the entrance and saw a man wearing a white sweater sitting on the sofa in the living room.
Qiao Qiao wanted to see the real results, so she didn't let her buy the hot search.
Li Xiwu took Qiao Qiao's hand and shook it reassuringly: "Maybe, the fate didn't come before, but now the fate has come, so..." Li Xiwu's eyes fell on Qiao Qiao's belly: "The little guy picked it
Take the pick, you have been chosen."
Shao Jingmo smiled gently and responded to her: "Okay."
Qiao Qiao pressed her heart, but felt nothing, so she pressed it again.
Li Xiwu:?
If it's really a mistake, then just pretend that nothing happened.
Pei Jingzhou: "Cinnamon."
Seeing this, Li Xiwu quickly said the important things first: "Don't have too high expectations yet. Look, I took you outside after dinner to talk about it. I was afraid that things would be revealed too early. What if?
I’m afraid I’ll still be very disappointed because of the mistake.”
Li Xiwu knelt down, patted Qiao Qiao's back gently with the palm of his hand, and calmed her down: "Did you taste the uncooked spring bamboo shoots just now?"
Curiosity suddenly rose in her heart, Qiao Qiao asked.
Pei Jingzhou smiled.
Qiao Qiao immediately raised her hand to signal: "Let me explain first, you can't deliberately give me face."
"No." As soon as he said no, a feeling of nausea quickly came over him.
"I am happy because I am in a good mood." Qiao Qiao also said: "I eat more barbecue now because I will eat less in the next nine months."
And the performance of this drama did not disappoint Qiao Qiao. During the period of its popularity, the popularity increased greatly every day, almost a qualitative leap. The popularity on the premiere video website has soared to the third most popular video on the entire site.
Combined with Qiao Qiao's situation just now, Li Xiwu felt that it was very possible...
In the evening, Shao Jingmo came back early.
Qiao Qiao noticed that Shao Jingmo's hand stretched out to receive the pregnancy test report was trembling slightly.
He had always kept his face calm even when the mountain was falling, but now because of this pregnancy test report, not only his hands were trembling slightly, but his eyes were instantly red.
Qiao Qiao had no time to calm down his emotions and was suddenly embraced by him.
She patted his back and said softly: "Congratulations, little uncle."
His hoarse and choked voice fell in my ears: "Same joy, Qiao Yuyu."

ps: Qiao Mo is finished. I will write about Pei Jiao and Wei Yu tomorrow. This pair is really not long, so I will finish it quickly.
