The dishes Gu Qingning brought were black pepper beef tenderloin and turtle soup made by her parents' aunt.
Yu Zhiming cooked some dumplings as a staple food.
The three of us had a wonderful dinner.
Afterwards, Zhou Mo and Gu Qingning worked together to clean and organize the bedroom and living room.
This made Yu Zhiming grin secretly!
The bedroom and living room are cleaned every day and are not dirty at all.
He is just a film and television star, but he still came here to see a doctor. As for welcoming him in such a grand way...
At nearly eight o'clock in the evening, Yu Xiangwan finally came back carrying two large bags of one or twenty large steamed buns.
"Lao Wu, the big star hasn't come yet?"
"Not coming!"
Yu Zhiming replied: "The appointment is at nine o'clock, so I won't come so early. But, sister, why do you bring so many buns?"
"Big stars are not big fans. They can't save face. The most they can do is eat a bun from you."
Yu Xiangwan rolled her eyes at him.
"Lao Wu, don't you understand?"
"Senior big stars are surrounded by assistants, managers, bodyguards and many other people."
"I'm even worried that this bun won't be enough."
As he spoke, Yu Xiangwan took the buns to the kitchen, put the buns in the steamer, and lit the stove to heat them up.
Yu Zhiming waited for the fourth sister to finish her work and left the kitchen, then threw the brand-name men's leather goods box given by Dr. Weng to him.
"Sister, I can treat it as something you bought and give it to Zhang Bai."
When Yu Xiangwan saw the LG printed on the box, his eyes lit up.
"Hoho, Gucci, a big luxury brand! Lao Wu, where did you come from?"
"Are you willing to give it to me?"
Yu Zhiming said: "Dr. Weng's thank you gift."
He said proudly: "I have proven myself and do not need such luxury goods to decorate myself."
"If Zhang Bai goes out to discuss business, he still needs some external things to prove his strength."
Yu Xiangwan held the box and said with a smile: "Lao Wu, I love you to death. You are indeed my biological brother."
"This thing is sent to my heart, hehe..."
At 8:30 in the evening, after the bedroom, living room, and bathroom were tidied up by three women again, they couldn't stay in the room any longer.
After the three people discussed it, they decided to go downstairs to guard.
This made Yu Zhiming look full of contempt.
You don’t know who the other party is, so why are you so excited?
He couldn't help but remind: "Three beauties, senior stars, please pay special attention to the word senior."
"It also has another meaning, that is, you are no longer young, you may be an old man."
"I'm definitely not the young guy you imagined, or the young and middle-aged sportsman or handsome guy."
Gu Qingning gave Yu Zhiming a pair of white eyes.
"Are we so superficial?"
"The one who can be admired by the great singer Rao Yi must be the powerful film and television star."
"If I count with my fingers, it's just a handful of people."
"No matter which one of them comes, it is worth waiting for us to greet you downstairs."
Gu Qingning said very considerately: "Zhiming, please don't go down there. Don't catch a cold."
Yu Zhiming hummed softly: "I don't want to go down."
After the three women walked downstairs, Yu Zhiming couldn't sit still.
Who could it be?
Ge Naomen? Comrade Daoming? Comrade Excavator...
Yu Zhiming didn't have to guess for a long time before he heard the sound of chaotic footsteps outside the door.
He opened the door immediately and saw the fourth sister, Qing Ning, and Zhou Mo walking over surrounded by a tall middle-aged man with a very familiar face.
Yu Zhiming recognized it immediately.
Damn it, it turns out to be Zhao Zhiwen, a film and television star from Binhai.
Yu Zhiming had heard of and watched some of the TV series he starred in, and was quite impressed by him.
In particular, his voice is very magnetic, extremely infectious and penetrating.
In terms of voice expressiveness and line skills, Yu Zhiming personally believes that Zhao Zhiwen is definitely one of the few domestic film and television actors who are at the ceiling level.
Now that there was something wrong with his voice, he even offered to pay him a million dollars, which Yu Zhiming understood very well.
His voice can be considered an iconic signature.
This also made Yu Zhiming feel extremely responsible and must find out the root cause of his voice problem.
"Hello, Mr. Zhao! I am also a fan of yours and have watched many of your movies and TV series."
Zhao Zhiwen said politely: "Hello, Dr. Yu!"
"I have also admired you for a long time. I came here specifically to seek your help tonight. I hope you won't be too intrusive."
This sound was not so pleasant to Yu Zhiming's ears.
Not only hoarse, but also harsh.
"Mr. Zhao, please come in!"
Yu Zhiming let Zhao Zhiwen into the living room.
After the two parties sat down in the sofa area, he asked directly: "Mr. Zhao, what's your voice now?"
Zhao Zhiwen sighed softly: "Dr. Yu, I was suddenly surprised to find a change in my voice more than three months ago."
"At that time, I thought it was because I used my voice too much."
"I have been recuperating for more than half a month, but my voice has not recovered and is getting worse."
"I contacted several medical experts for examination, but they found no problem."
"They told me that this was the second natural change in my voice and asked me to learn to accept it."
Yu Zhiming naturally knows about the so-called second natural change of voice.
When he saw the fourth sister, Qing Ning and Zhou Mo all looking at him inquiringly, he organized some words to popularize science for them.
"You must be aware of the first pubertal voice change."
Yu Zhiming said: "In childhood, the vocal cords are shorter, and the attached mucosal lamina propria lacks fiber components."
"As we age, our vocal cords will gradually lengthen."
"At puberty, with the secretion of male and female gland hormones, the length of our vocal cords will increase dramatically."
"During this period, boys' Adam's apple enlarges, their larynx becomes larger, and their voice quality becomes thicker."
"Girls generally enter puberty around the age of ten. After going through the voice-changing period, girls' voices generally become sharper."
"It's because you girls have small throats, relatively short vocal cords, and high vibration frequencies."
After a pause, Yu Zhiming went on to introduce: "When entering middle-aged and elderly people, many people will experience a second voice change period."
"At this time, women are usually between 45 and 55 years old, and men are usually between 50 and 60 years old."
"At this time, their voices will become a little shaky, the volume will weaken, and the timbre will become deep."
"This is mainly because the elderly's hormone secretion decreases, the vocal cords will gradually shrink, the vibration amplitude will decrease, and the glottis will not close completely, resulting in unstable voice."
Zhao Zhiwen patiently waited for Yu Zhiming to finish his introduction before continuing: "I am aware of this second change in voice and have actively taken precautions."
"As a professional actor, I usually exercise my throat muscles and vocal cords scientifically and systematically, as well as my neuromuscular control and coordination abilities."
"Such long-term persistence and systematic and scientific exercise of vocal cords and muscles should prevent me from changing my voice for the second time and keep my voice clear."
"Moreover, I am certain that my voice did not become like this gradually, but suddenly deteriorated one day."
"So, I don't agree that the change in my voice is the second natural voice change."
"But several medical experts failed to identify the problem."
"Dr. Yu, I can also confirm that my throat has not been traumatized. In the past five or six years, I have not even had a fish bone pricked."
After a two-second pause, Zhao Zhiwen continued: "To be honest with you, Ms. Rao Yi and I are very good friends."
Zhao Zhiwen said with sincerity: "She knew about my situation and recommended Dr. Yu to me based on her own experience!"
"She told me that if anyone can discover the real reason for the change in my voice, it must be you, Dr. Yu!"
"Doctor Yu, please give me more help."
Yu Zhiming faced the other party's expectant gaze, stood up, and said: "Mr. Zhao, since I agreed and accepted Ms. Rao's request, I will naturally try my best to find out the problem."
"Come to the bedroom with me..."
After the two entered the bedroom, Yu Zhiming reached out and stroked Zhao Zhiwen's throat, asking him to practice pronunciation as before.
"Ah..."
"Ah..."
As Zhao Zhiwen practiced his voice slightly hoarsely, Yu Zhiming calmed down to explore and analyze his vocal problems.
Human voice is formed by the airflow from the lungs impacting the vocal cords in the larynx, causing the vocal cords to vibrate and then resonate through the pharyngeal cavity, oral cavity, nasal cavity and sinuses.
As Zhao Zhiwen continues to practice his voice, in Yu Zhiming's mind, he has carefully constructed a three-dimensional perspective diagram of all the organs involved in vocal production, as well as a path diagram of the air flow.
However, according to Yu Zhiming's perception, no organic disease was found in Zhao Zhiwen's vocal organs.
He also found no abrupt bulges or other anomalies that hindered the airflow on the airflow path.
There is no problem with the vocal organ and path!
Could it be caused by lesions elsewhere?
Yu Zhiming knows that some diseases may also affect the voice, such as Parkinson's disease, various tremor diseases, multiple sclerosis, myasthenia gravis and other neurogenic diseases, which will affect the vocal function.
In addition, some mental illnesses may also cause dysphonia.
Yu Zhiming, who had gained nothing for the time being, asked Zhao Zhiwen to lie on the bed and gave him a detailed full-body examination.
To Yu Zhiming's disappointment, the physical examination, which lasted more than ten minutes, found no useful clues that led to the change in voice, except for a few minor physical problems.
Is it really just the second natural voice change?
After lowering his head and thinking for a few minutes, Yu Zhiming raised his head and looked at Zhao Zhiwen, who was full of worry.
"Mr. Zhao, maybe I can try to determine whether your voice change is caused by the second natural voice change or by other reasons."
"What method?" Zhao Zhiwen looked forward to it.
Yu Zhiming said thoughtfully: "I need high-definition recordings of your previous voice practice or speech."
"I will try to reconstruct the working state of each vocal organ when you were pronunciation based on the recording."
"Compare it with the current working state of your vocal organs. If the change in the vocal cords is relatively large, it can be determined that it is caused by the second natural voice change."
"Dr. Yu, can you do it?" Zhao Zhiwen felt a little incredible, like a fantasy.
Yu Zhiming smiled and said: "I have done something similar before. Based on a person's voice, I determined which part of his vocal organ has a disease."
"There is still some certainty."
He asked again: "High-definition recording?"
Zhao Zhiwen nodded and said: "What I don't lack most is this, the poetry recitation recorded in the studio four months ago..."
