On New Year's Eve, at five o'clock in the evening, the sky is about to fall into the night. Unlike the lonely and deserted streets outside, at this time, the family courtyard of the Electric Power Bureau is already bustling with people, and there is a festive atmosphere everywhere with lights and colorful lights.
Li Xiangyong and his wife Meng Xiuzhi worked hard all day. After putting up couplets, window grilles and other decorations, they began to prepare for the New Year's Eve dinner.
Someone was setting off firecrackers constantly in the yard. Looking around, the whole Xuzhou was filled with a joyous atmosphere.
During this period, neighbors came to visit one after another. When they learned that the Li family’s son was going to attend this year’s Spring Festival Gala, many neighbors congratulated and were envious. Many people who knew a little bit about the entertainment industry were even proud to know the Li family.
Promote every bit of your acquaintance with Li Qing.
Nowadays, Li Qing can be regarded as a billionaire and a big star. He is extremely popular all over the country. In Xuzhou, Li Qing is even more famous. When the Cultural Affairs Bureau formulated the regional publicity plan, Li Qing was included in the list.
His name was at the top of the list, and he even began to compile small allusions about what happened to Li Qing when he lived and studied in Xuzhou, causing crazy discussions and spread among many citizens in the streets and alleys.
And because of Li Qing's relationship, Li Xiangyong's title as director of the Electric Power Bureau's office has also changed several times this year. The original deputy section level was also corrected during this period, and he became the director of the Electric Power Bureau.
One of several deputy directors.
Now when people meet Li Xiangyong, they no longer call him Director Li, who has remained unchanged for ten years, but Director Li.
During this period, Meng Xiuzhi, who was originally a primary school teacher, was given the title of dean and became the management of her primary school.
At six o'clock, Li Xiangyong came back from visiting. Thinking of the changes in his family in the past two years and the admiration for him from the people around him, he felt sad for a moment.
"As my true father, I am only as valuable as my son."
Li Xiangyong sat at the dinner table, sipping a sip of wine, with a smile on his face, "My son has a promising future, and I am really happy to be a father. It's the New Year's Eve, and it's a bit too much for this kid not to come back.
.”
Meng Xiuzhi was making dumplings when she heard this and rolled her eyes at her husband: "My son is going to attend the Spring Festival Gala. It is something that many people dream of doing. If he doesn't come back, he won't come back. Why can't you understand the importance?"
"Hi, I'm just feeling emotional."
Li Xiangyong said, looked at the time, and then took out his cell phone to call his son to inquire about the situation.
But at this moment, there was a knock on the door, "Director Li, is Director Li at home? I am Ren Fuda!"
Director?
Li Xiangyong and Meng Xiuzhi looked at each other.
Ren Fuda is the director of the Electricity Bureau and Li Xiangyong's immediate boss. He used to ignore Li Xiangyong's family, but since Li Qing became popular, Ren Fuda has become very fond of Li Xiangyong. He goes to Li Xiangyong's office every two days to extend cordial greetings.
Originally, Li Xiangyong still had business office tasks every day, but since Li Qing's rise to prominence, Ren Fuda just waved his hand and asked Li Xiangyong to take up a new position as a hands-off shopkeeper. Not to mention an on-the-job position, even now that he is promoted to deputy director, Li Xiangyong's workload is still the same.
Least.
Li Xiangyong stood up and went to open the door. When the door was opened, Li Xiangyong was shocked by the bustling crowd in the corridor.
There were more than a dozen people in front of them, many of them carrying cameras on their shoulders. The leader was Director Ren. Behind him were several female reporters holding recorders and interview microphones. As soon as they saw Li Xiangyong, they swarmed forward.
, one of them asked loudly: "Director Li, will Li Qing go home for the New Year this year?"
"There are rumors that Li Qing has a girlfriend. Do you know about this?"
"What do you think about your son attending the Spring Festival Gala?"
Amidst the shouting, Li Xiangyong frowned and glanced at Ren Fuda.
Ren Fuda was in his early fifties, short and fat, but he had a jet black hair. He looked radiant and had the aura of a successful man. Seeing Li Xiangyong looking at him, he coughed and laughed dryly.
: "These reporter friends have been waiting in front of the courtyard for a long time. I thought it would also increase my nephew's exposure, so I led them over..."
Although Ren Fuda is the director of the Electricity Bureau, he has never lived in the family home.
In order to make good friends with Li Xiangyong, this guy moved out of the West Street Villa Park and relocated to a family compound. He came here every now and then to start a relationship with Li Xiangyong.
Ren Fuda will never forget what Mayor Wu of this city told him, and he must cultivate a good relationship with the Li family.
Because even Secretary Song, the top leader in the provincial capital, admired Li Qing very much and once personally promised to make Li Qing a cultural celebrity in XZ City.
Of course, this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is Li Qing’s background.
Mayor Wu originally only treated Li Qing as a person in the entertainment industry. He wanted to imitate Yun Province in creating a cultural symbol of Leng Ling, and erected Li Qing to become a scenic symbol of XZ City.
However, during his interactions with Secretary Song, Mayor Wu was vaguely aware of Li Qing's unfathomable background, which directly caused Secretary Song to favor Li Qing more.
Later, Mayor Wu learned about Huaqing Technology, and even though it was just the tip of the iceberg, he suddenly broke into a cold sweat.
Because he did not know Li Qing deeply enough, Mayor Wu did not dare to act rashly. Although he was covetous of Li Qing's background, he did not dare to act rashly. With the mentality of not seeking merit but seeking no fault,
Mayor Wu carefully told Ren Fuda to entertain Li Qing's family well.
But Ren Fuda went too far and showed extraordinary importance to Li Xiangyong. He originally ignored Li Xiangyong, but he praised Li Xiangyong in several performance appraisals, and later directly praised Li Xiangyong.
The position of second-in-command in the industry bureau...
The space in Li's house is not small, but when more than ten people came in at once, it seemed a bit crowded.
Meng Xiuzhi cleared the dining table, then sat upright in front of the sofa with her husband, accepting interviews from many reporters.
From Li Qing's strange stories when he was a child to his unconventional behavior when he grew up, reporters asked about him all over.
Li Xiangyong and Meng Xiuzhi also answered as usual. They didn't mind reporters describing their sons' childhood as child prodigies, but they also waved their hands in denial of some obviously false and excessive news records.
Forty minutes later, at the instigation of reporters, Li Xiangyong took out his mobile phone and made a call to his son who was preparing for a performance in Beijing.
At that time, the CCTV building.
In the crowds of people, countless artists stepped out of cars, smiling and waving in the face of the spotlights that were constantly on by the reporters around them.
The scene is no less than a red carpet show at an awards ceremony. Every artist arriving at the CCTV building will be baptized by the lightning of media lights and the fanatical screams of many fans.
When a black nanny car appeared, looking at the familiar license plate number, the focus of the audience gathered in an instant...
