"I'll put a coin in it and it's already boiled. Don't worry about safety. Whoever eats it will get a big red envelope."
On New Year's Eve, at Wang Bingbing's house, a family of three plus Qin Xiaobao, a total of four people, sat around the table.
The dough has been kneaded. Qin Xiaobao is responsible for cutting the dough, Wang's father rolls out the dough, and mother and daughter make dumplings.
Mother Wang took out a coin and showed it in front of the three people.
"25% chance, Mom, how big is the red envelope!" Wang Bingbing leaned over.
"It's a big red envelope anyway." Mother Wang stretched out her hand and scratched her daughter's nose, causing a burst of laughter.
Qin Xiaobao has lived here for ten days, and the relationship can be said to have improved by leaps and bounds.
On the third day, we moved into our home, ate and drank every day, went shopping together and bought new year's goods.
Knowing that she didn't bring any clothes, Mrs. Wang specially took him to the mall to buy some clothes.
Good intentions are hard to deny, so I bought several sets of clothes.
They went out too many times and ended up being photographed. It wasn't until it was on the news that they knew their whereabouts had been discovered.
Good things are coming for Qin Xiaobao and Wang Bingbing,
Qin Xiaobao visited his mother-in-law’s home in Changchun,
Qin Xiaobao and Wang Bingbing combine to purchase, suspecting that good things are about to happen.
Qin Xiaobao......
Various reports were flying all over the place, but Kiwi and the parties concerned ignored them at all. If the boss really wanted to get married, he would definitely notify us. Anyway, it was the Chinese New Year holiday. When I called to inquire, he said that he could not contact the director and did not know the situation.
As for my friends, they ignored it and didn’t receive any invitations.
However, after his itinerary was exposed and they learned that he was in Changchun, the family became cautious.
Father-in-law and mother-in-law felt Qin Xiaobao's influence for the first time. Relatives no matter how far away they were at home would call and inquire.
So I asked him not to go out anymore, or he would drive out at night, fully packed, to look at ice sculptures and other things.
Grandma went back on the third day, and Qin Xiaobao moved in. He was well served and served every day, eating and drinking.
After ten days, I saw that I had gained weight.
Mrs. Wang is very proud that the breeding level has not declined.
I told my other relatives years ago that I would not go to pay New Year greetings when my uncle comes. He is so busy, and I don’t know when he will come over next time.
Everyone can understand that after finding such a good son-in-law, we should not be too tight-lipped.
The New Year atmosphere in the north is indeed stronger. I went out in the morning, went to the market, and bought couplet lanterns.
The market was crowded with people, and candied haws, hemp flowers, new clothes for adults and children, and pork, beef, and mutton were all placed on the table.
Whether they are customers, sellers, or spectators, everyone has a smile on their face.
Say auspicious words, talk about prices, and enjoy the fun brought by the Spring Festival.
Qin Xiaobao enjoyed this atmosphere very much and bought a bunch of gadgets, but he didn't care whether they were used or not.
After returning, the parents prepared the New Year's Eve dinner, and the young couple were responsible for the decorations.
The couplets at the door are essential, plus small lanterns, a little snowman with a cute red nose, balloons, ribbons, window grilles...
There is only one more person in the family, but the family of three found that the vitality has more than doubled. Things that usually feel a little redundant or ignored are particularly interesting.
The taste of the new year has just begun.
"I'll take a call." Qin Xiaobao temporarily put down his work, got up and went to the side.
I don’t know which New Year’s call it was, but Lao Wang accidentally glanced at him: “Deng Chao, is this Deng Chao?”
Wang Bingbing nodded and looked back at her boyfriend.
"Isn't it said that seniority is important in the entertainment industry? I see that many people call him, why?"
Bingbing smiled: "If Brother Xiaobao was just a singer or actor, he would have to take the initiative to say New Year greetings.
However, he is a director and a very popular director, so his status is completely different.
Actors want to work with him, and investors need to have a good relationship with him. Even if some veteran actors have more seniority, they are still willing to have a good relationship with him."
"So amazing." Mother Wang said in surprise: "I read the news on the Internet and said that the movie you acted in invested more than 300 million yuan. Did you really spend that much money?"
"I guess it's more than that. Just the investment is more than this amount," Wang Bingbing nodded: "There is also the most expensive promotion later, I estimate it will be at least 100 million."
The old couple were speechless. This son-in-law is so powerful. He is 22 years old and already manages 400-500 million yuan.
"Bingbing," the mother-in-law was a little worried: "Isn't it very risky to spend so much money?"
"Of course, making movies is actually a business, and the risks are higher. With so many films released every year, only a few can make money."
"What should we do? How much should we sell for 400-500 million yuan?"
"A minimum of 1.5 billion in box office is guaranteed to make the money back."
"If we lose money, will Xiaobao be affected?" asked the old father-in-law.
"It will definitely have an impact," Qin Xiaobao walked over with a smile: "But there are risks and you still have to do it, and work harder, although sometimes the effort is not proportional to the reward."
"Will you lose money?"
"Hahaha, no." Qin Xiaobao laughed: "Investors are smart. They will hand over real money to you and have done a risk investigation in advance, but it's hard to say anything about movies.
It's quite common for big-budget films made by big stars and directors to do poorly at the box office.
As a director, it’s just that people will think more about and research the next project.
I have made three movies so far, two of which have been on the big screen, and both have done well.
Even if one movie doesn't work, it's still fine. It's just that it will be difficult to operate a project with an investment of hundreds of millions. After all, compared with those veteran directors, the qualifications are still far behind."
"Bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah," Wang's mother said anxiously: "It's Chinese New Year, don't say unlucky words."
Qin Xiaobao did not disobey his aunt, but turned his head and sighed a few times.
"I will definitely be very busy next year." Mrs. Wang was satisfied.
"What do you mean, I have to go to school and watch the post-production of the work. I definitely have time to come and see you." Qin Xiaobao picked up the dumpling wrappers and wrapped the dumplings together: "But Bingbing is definitely busier than me.
The company plans to give her a leading role in a TV series next year."
"Wow, my life is so miserable," Wang Bingbing said with a sad face: "Can't you tell me again after the New Year?"
The three of them were amused by her.
"After the movie is filmed, there will be nothing more to do with Bingbing, right?"
"Yes, there may be additional shots and dubbing, and she will definitely be included in the promotion later. It will be good for her popularity and influence." Qin Xiaobao explained patiently.
"Originally, Bingbing has made two movies, so she should go the movie route. You don't know that the status of a movie star will be higher than that of a TV star.
Many TV drama actors are working towards the big screen, and the two acting styles are different.
Bingbing is still young and lacks experience, so it will be good for her to shoot diverse works."
Qin Xiaobao is obviously younger than Wang Bingbing, but no one feels strange or awkward when he says these words.
"Bingbing, please listen to Xiaobao more from now on and don't quarrel."
The young couple nodded at the same time.
"Besides." Mother Wang looked at the two of them with indescribable satisfaction in her heart: "Your father, I and my relatives at home have also discussed it. Logically speaking, marriage is decided by the parents.
Xiaobao, you are sensible and have a special occupation. If you really have to set a time, it would be troublesome if something happens.
Therefore, we both think that you can discuss it and tell us in advance when you plan to get married."
The young couple exchanged looks. Wang Bingbing had expected such a result and was not surprised.
"Okay," Qin Xiaobao did not refuse: "Let's see and find a time when most people are free, but then the two elders will still have to suffer. After all, they don't understand anything."
"Don't worry, we'll take care of it."
Crackling, crackling...
The four of them turned around together, the sound of firecrackers outside the window was loud, today is the New Year!!!
(I wish you all that in the new year, all your wishes will come true, everything will go as you wish, and no matter what you do, everything goes smoothly. The moon wishes you a happy new year!!!)
