Chapter 127 Seeing the Parents
Chapter 127 Seeing the Parents
The sixteenth day of the first lunar month.
After eating glutinous rice balls, it also means that the Spring Festival has come to an end, and we need to devote ourselves to busy work in the new year.
You will get bored after eating delicacies from mountains and seas for more than ten days, and you will get bored after more than ten days of holidays, but some bombarding news will make people more excited, and even fear that the world will not be chaotic, and look forward to more violent storms.
For example, the tsunami in the entertainment industry that has not stopped throughout the Spring Festival.
Starting with the news on New Year's Eve - "The pigeons will be in the same frame after ten years", and then one shocking news after another, the entire entertainment industry seems to have agreed to let everyone collectively eat melons and support them.
Among them, except for a few cases that were indeed coincidences, which happened just in time for the Spring Festival, more of them wanted to take advantage of the wind.
This Spring Festival, the dialogue among many stars is like this.
"Hi, it's me."
"what?"
"How about going out for coffee and taking a picture?"
"Are we familiar?"
"We are not familiar with each other, but we have a tacit understanding of 100 points in that evil game. Now everyone says that game is a holy book in the entertainment industry, and the attention is on it. Why don't we cooperate?"
"Why should I cooperate with you?"
"Come on, isn't your show about to hit the stars, but now there is no discussion? My movie is in theaters and the box office is not doing well. Isn't mutual benefit good?"
"This... let me think about it..."
"Thinking about your sister, let me tell you, there are definitely not a few people who think about me. Now that the news is hotter, it will be drowned in the vast sea of news."
"This……"
"Can you be more sober in the world? We are just two fools, and it is not easy to chat about the advantages and disadvantages of a topic. Why are you hypocritical?"
"Row!"
In addition to rubbing the heat, there are also those who fish in troubled waters.
For example, those who have been divorced but are inconvenient to announce, those who have illegitimate children and are afraid that fans will not accept them, those who have been married for many years but follow the traffic route, all took advantage of this tsunami to make their big waves covered under countless big waves, thereby reducing the impact. It also prevents you from being used by gossip reporters in the future.

Buddy Company.
Everyone in the company sat at the conference table, which was filled with souvenirs from everyone's hometown.Wang Feiniu, who didn't go home, made tea for everyone graciously.
Fu Qiaoming was still brushing his laptop, walking in the front line of gossip.
"It's scary, it's really scary." Fu Qiaoming looked at the crowded homepage of the website.
In the past, news such as the marriage/divorce of a well-known celebrity could be posted on the homepage of the website for three days and three nights as a feature, but now it can only be divided into small tofu pieces in the entertainment section of the website, which is extremely shabby.
Fu Qiaoming recalled the night of New Year's Eve.
She is used to sending blessings to everyone on New Year's Eve. People or customers she doesn't know well use group messages, and those who are acquainted send greetings individually.
When she blessed the proprietress of Yuexia Fengqing, the proprietress said excitedly: "Liu Zhongxin has come to our cafe!" She also sent a blurry photo.
With her 5.2 eyesight, Fu Qiaoming recognized Liu Zhongxin from the blurred picture, and regretted why she didn't work overtime during the Spring Festival.
Fu Qiaoming: "Why did he go to your coffee shop? Don't tell me that your food is so delicious that celebrities go to eat it after the Spring Festival Gala."
The proprietress hesitated for a moment: "I don't know, but there is a guest who came at noon in the box he entered. Just now my other guests said that the box is Chen Fangge?"
Fu Qiaoming: ...
Fu Qiaoming listened to the chattering public debate and the background sound of the Spring Festival Gala on the other end of the phone.
"No, I know the Spring Festival Gala is ugly, but it doesn't make people mentally retarded, right?"
Fu Qiaoming thought he was at the pinnacle of wisdom, until both sides of the carrier pigeon posted Weibo.
Fu Qiaoming:? ? ?
The clown is me?
Li Xiaobai's crowing-like laughter interrupted Fu Qiaoming's memory.
Fu Qiaoming: "What are you doing? Are you laying eggs?"
Li Xiaobai handed the phone to Fu Qiaoming.
In the company's large group, the employee in charge of background monitoring is sending a screenshot of the message to the company group.
[Gou Dai's father!Gou Daddy!Can you make a prop for us 'Portuguese Duck CP'?I hope you don't know good from bad, if you don't agree, I... I will kneel down for you! 】
[Gou Dai's father!Can your prediction and fortune-telling business be open to amateurs?I am an orphan. I have been trying to find my parents all these years, but there is no progress. I cry all day long. So, can you help me calculate the first prize number for the next Shuangseqiu? 】
[Gou Dai's father!Can you expand the game?Don't be limited to the entertainment circle, we in the sports circle also want to enjoy this sleepless shock!This kind of knocking CP is really happy! 】
……
Fu Qiaoming: "Once the Spring Festival is over, the boss will be happy to be a father."
As soon as Fu Qiaoming finished speaking, Gou Dai walked into the meeting room.
He heard Fu Qiaoming's teasing, and he just wanted to say weakly, "Can these cheap sons let me go?"
The first company meeting of the new year kicked off in an atmosphere where everyone except Gou Dai was expressionless, and everyone was beaming.
Wang Feiniu excitedly reported how [Star Appreciation GO] has jumped from a low reputation before the Spring Festival to an explosive reputation today, becoming the "God-level game" among the people.
The operation department doesn't even need to think about marketing or event planning, netizens are much more talented than them.
"Would the cult CP dream come true? Come to 【Star Appreciation GO】!"
"The more effective way than burning incense and worshiping Buddha is to pray to the production team of [Star Appreciation GO]!"
"Don't make fun of any setting of [Star Appreciation GO], he will fight back with practical actions, telling you 'the clown is yourself'!"
Fu Qiaoming reported the user situation of 【Star Appreciation GO】.Before the Spring Festival, the number of new downloads fell to the bottom, and the number of active users declined significantly. By the time of the Lantern Festival, the number of new downloads reached 5000 million in two weeks, and the number of active users hit a new high.
Shangguan Jingxian reported the financial situation of 【Star Appreciation GO】.In the early days of the Spring Festival, under the call of the White Prostitution Alliance, a large number of high-V users chose to follow up with zero recharge and boycott the game’s festival activities, so that the decline in financial data was more obvious than the number of users.
After the outbreak of the "Pigeon Reconciliation" incident on New Year's Eve, the white whoring alliance fell apart, and with the development of the situation, it became more and more broken, and even took the lead in recharging.
For example, "White Dove Knows I Believe", the founder of the White Prostitution Alliance, walks in the vanguard camp of spending money every day. The money spent this Spring Festival alone is enough to buy a house in a third-tier city.
"White Dove Knows I Believe" not only spends money, but also often chats with customer service to give advice.
Customer service has always attached great importance to this kind of big krypton gold players, and quickly collected and sorted out their opinions to the headquarters.
However, his opinion cannot be accepted——
"Can you change the drop props of the carrier pigeon, don't use the sculpture of the Silent Man, it's unlucky, change it to a condom, or a sex/fun stick? Jumping/eggs are also okay?"
"Can you enable the function of celebrities getting married and being sent to the bridal chamber? The kind that can be watched?"
"You need to know how to be flexible! Can you activate the function of celebrity marriage and childbirth? Who doesn't love beautiful babies? Of course, please set it as same-sex fertile. You can also sell milk powder props and baby costume props, isn't it good?"
This big krypton gold player is too proficient in molesting the production team.
Gou Dai listened to the employee's report, and looked at the new information that popped up from the phone from time to time,
[Yun Zui: Toi Dai, do you have any hidden news, tell me a little bit! 】
[Yun Zui: Toi Dai, give me a hint! 】
[Yun Zui: Dao Dai, if it doesn’t work, tell me secretly which stars will have relationships after the game is updated, right? 】
Yep, the big paparazzi in the entertainment industry all regard him as a god.
With a headache, Gou Dai turned the phone around and covered it on the table.
After a Spring Festival, all kinds of front-page headlines were bombarded, and various entertainment reporters snooped on news, Gou Dai still couldn't believe in Buddhism.He really couldn't figure out which link went wrong, and the progress of things could be so bizarre.
The smiling Bu Dai people also joined the gossip army after finishing their work.
Fu Qiaoming: "Boss, how on earth did you know so many secrets about the entertainment industry?"
Gou Dai is indifferent: "I said that based on various entertainment gossip news on the Internet, I concluded that the entertainers with the worst relationship with each other in the entertainment circle, do you believe it?"
The newcomer Lu Xijing quickly adapted to Budai's style: "I understand! Boss! As you told me at the beginning, when we make this game, we should also do something for the artists, such as resolve the hatred between artists! It's just me I didn't expect you to actually do it!"
Gou Dai was speechless, he obviously wanted to disgust fans and players at the time, but who knew that Lu Xijing believed it to be true, those celebrities themselves believed it!
Lu Xijing's argument was supported by everyone in Bu Dai.
Wang Feiniu nodded again and again: "The boss really has a big plan, but unfortunately I don't have enough vision. Before the Spring Festival, I was so worried that I couldn't sleep all night."
Li Xiaobai: "However, the timing is really just right. If it weren't for the revelation of the reunion of the carrier pigeons on New Year's Eve, our game would be hopeless."
On New Year’s Eve, almost all the major games launched various festive activities to attract players, especially for some games that already have a lot of traffic and a large number of users.
According to the real-time monitoring in the background, during the daytime on New Year's Eve, the number of registered players in [Star Appreciation GO] was reduced by half, and the average online time of players was even reduced by two-thirds compared with normal times, which was seriously diverted.
However, as soon as the group photo of Pigeon CP came out, according to background statistics, about one-fifth of the old players who had not logged in today went online within 10 minutes, and continued to log in for a long time in the next two weeks.
And as one incident after another in the entertainment industry broke out, not only old users returned one after another, but new users also increased rapidly. The number of new downloads in a single day during the entire Spring Festival was second only to the day when the game was just released.
Fu Qiaoming looked at Gou Dai with a look of epiphany: "Boss, I understand, I know why you are taking risks and looking for artists with bad relationships. It is said that there is no love for no reason in this world, and there is no love without a reason." Hate without reason, and based on the truth that love to the end is hate, and hate to the end is love. Two people who can hate each other, after energy conversion, will eventually love each other, at least a close relationship."
It's hard for Gou Dai not to agree with Fu Qiaoming's reasoning. If you must use principles other than metaphysics to explain, Fu Qiaoming's argument that "what is there is nothing, and nothing is what is there" is the most reasonable.
Fu Qiaoming: "But boss, how did you grasp this opportunity well?"
If these news broke out a few months later, according to the antipathy and resistance of gamers to the game at that time, the game might not last for half a year.
Gou Dai: I also want to ask, why can't you start things a few months later?
This is his first close contact with bankruptcy. He thought his dream would come true, but in the end, it was nothing.
==
At the end of the meeting, when everyone walked out of the meeting room, they saw Liang Junche bring takeaways for two desks.
"Blessings to everyone's old age, treat everyone to dinner!" Liang Junche smiled brightly.
Everyone looked at Liang Junche, who was in high spirits, and then at Gou Dai, who was rather sluggish. They always felt that something had changed compared to before the festival, but nothing seemed to have changed.
But soon, the foodie employees failed to sympathize with the boss's feelings, and brought the expensive food back into the conference room with a glance at the packaging bag.
"Are you still in a bad mood?" Liang Junche cautiously approached him.
From New Year's Eve to New Year's Day, after seven major events occurred in the entertainment industry, the entertainment industry continued to ferment at an average rate of one major event every three hours for the next few days.
The crowd chanted, "It's really too full, there are no New Year's goods in the belly, only melons", while eagerly looking forward to the birth of the next big melon.
Poor Goudai, every time he sees a new trend, he gets dizzy.
On the third day of the Lunar New Year, after receiving the good news from Wang Feiniu that "the daily turnover hit an opening record", he finally deeply realized that it is impossible to go bankrupt.
Liang Junche sensitively noticed that Gou Dai was in a bad mood, and this bad mood had nothing to do with his tossing around at night, but because of the disturbing entertainment news.
Liang Junche did not find out the connection between the two, but it did not prevent him from solving it. His solution was to arrange an island vacation.
Mr. Liang has a private island under his name, but Liang Junche didn't go there, but found a lesser-known island in China.
This island was recommended by Chen Boxue. There are not many people, even during the Spring Festival, there are only a few tourists.
The scenery of the island is relatively primitive, with fine white sand, blue sea water, and a large area of primitive and lush jungle on the island.
Gou Dai did not refuse Liang Junche's invitation, and when he was upset, he chose to isolate himself from the world, and it was a good choice to keep out of sight.
So for ten or so days, the two walked around the island, ate seafood, and drank wine. Liang Junche would also teach Gou Dai sea fishing, diving, and motor boating.
Most of the time, the two of them just sat on the edge of the beach without doing anything, watching the vast mist in the distance, and the clouds rolling and relaxing in the sky.
Gou Dai had to admit that this long-lost vacation completely relaxed his nerves that had been tense for a long time.
"By the way, do you want to accompany me home today?" Liang Junche asked cautiously.
These days, Liang Junche can't leave Gou Dai at every step. They just returned home from the island the day before yesterday and rested at home for another day.Liang Junche didn't go back to visit his elders for a whole vacation, so it can be said that he was treasonous.
Gou Dai smiled: "Why do you want me to accompany you?"
Liang Junche glanced at no one around, and immediately changed his innocent eyes like a dog: "Are you denying it? Aren't you going to come with me to meet the parents?"
It looked like an innocent girl accusing an irresponsible scumbag.
Gou Dai's body shook honestly twice, he had nothing to do with Liang Junche's cheekiness of perfectly combining the bad and the good.
"Okay." Gou Dai still agreed, and can only say that Liang Junche's trick has been tried and tested.
Liang Junche pouted his nose and put his face on his face: "My parents...um...you have my mother's contact information, you should have met them, they are more open-minded and don't mind our affairs. But my grandpa...has a very traditional way of thinking..."
Gou Dai nodded, since he agreed to Liang Junche, he would naturally face it with him.
Liang Junche: "If my grandfather gave you [-] million and asked you to leave me, wouldn't you agree?"
Gou Dai looked at Liang Junche pretending to be appraised: "Tell your grandfather, 1000 million is enough. I watched the market for 500 million checks on TV. Xiao Liang always looks good, almost doubled. [-] million is too inflationary, and it doesn't meet Our socialist demand for stable prices."
Liang Junche: Wronged!
Gou Dai wanted to tease Liang Junche a few more times, but the phone rang inappropriately.
It's an unfamiliar number, from City A, Province H.
Gou Dai answered the phone.
The person on the other side of the phone claimed to be a certain street office, and came to notify the tomb to be relocated.
It turned out that the original cemetery of Gou Dai’s grandfather and grandmother was requisitioned by the government, and all the tombs in the cemetery had to be relocated, and the family members had to sign and receive compensation.
After Gou Dai hung up the phone, his mood was obviously much negative.
Liang Junche just heard the voice on the other end of the phone, and held the hand of the person in front of him: "Generally, this kind of land requisition will move the grave to the local cemetery."
Liang Junche knew Gou Dai's reluctance to the two old people: "Why don't we move our grandpa and grandma to Beicheng? I have a friend whose family runs a cemetery. It's very good. My grandma was buried there. The transportation is convenient, the terrain is high, and the environment is beautiful." Quiet, living people find it pleasing to the eye, and grandparents will definitely like it."
Gou Dai nodded, the frustration of "failure" in starting a business came back, and the sadness of not being able to realize his wish spread all over his body.
Liang Junche looked at Gou Dai's slightly frowned eyebrows and the unconcealable exhaustion in his eyes, gently embraced Gou Dai in his arms, and stroked his thin back soothingly, like a mother comforting a baby in swaddling.
Holding a little green dragon in one hand, Fu Qiaoming opened the door of the conference room with the other, and was about to call the boss to have a dinner together, when he saw the scene of deep friendship in front of him.
Fu Qiaoming hesitated for ten seconds, then closed the door of the conference room again.

The Liang Family Courtyard.
The living room of the Liang family is exquisite and quaint, with simple Chinese-style furniture and appropriately decorated antique ornaments, showing that the owner is not a nouveau riche with empty pockets.
Liang's father and Liang's mother sat on the double seat on the left, and Mr. Liang sat on the single seat on the right.
Liang Junche was a little nervous, and the slippers moved slightly left and right on the floor, as if they were going to rub the floor into two fans.
On the contrary, Gou Dai was very contented, sitting by the side and sipping the tea made by Mr. Liang.
"The tea soup is bright, the tea taste is mellow, and the tea aroma is abundant. Both the tea itself and the brewer's technique are excellent." Gou Dai praised it generously.
Mr. Liang was always on airs, and when he heard this, the corners of his mouth rose slightly in a controlled way: "It's quite knowledgeable, unlike Jun Che who only drinks those foreign things all day long."
Liang Junche was not annoyed either, and even pushed his nose on his face: "It's just right, we complement each other."
I thought that Mr. Liang would ask questions, but I didn't expect that he only talked about his views on major national affairs and the economic situation, and didn't talk about the love between his children at all.
After dinner, Mr. Liang called Gou Dai to the study alone.
Liang Junche was anxious and nervous, as if his study was a dragon's pond and a tiger's den.Gou Dai patted the back of his hand to comfort him, and entered the study with the old man.
In the study room, both of them could bear their temper, neither opened their mouths, and looked at each other quietly.
The time of staring at each other was so long that the fish in the big fish tank were still curious at first, and they swung their big red and black tails against the fish tank to spy. After a long time, they became impatient and shuttled leisurely among the Yuhua stone bonsai.
In the end, it was Mr. Liang who spoke first: "I'm not surprised that Liang Junche will fall in love with you."
Gou Dai shrugged his shoulders, Mr. Liang didn't scold him a few words first for bewitching people and people's hearts, so it was enough for him to save face.
Mr. Liang: "But I'm quite surprised that you like Liang Junche."
Gou Dai smiled: "Jun Che is fine everywhere."
Mr. Liang crossed the walnut in his hand: "What's so good? There's only one face to look at. The brat has a bad temper and is childish."
Gou Dai smiled. Generally, when elders despise their children and grandchildren, they must not put their noses up and agree with them.The first principle of getting along with humans is that some people can scold themselves, but others have to find someone to do their best.
Gou Dai: "Xiao Liang has always had a personality. He is indeed not thoughtful and mellow in the worldly sense, but he is really kind-hearted and can put himself in other people's shoes. He may not be stable and old-fashioned in dealing with things, but he has his own style of thinking , which is quite unique.”
Liang Si didn't show any dew on his face, but he was quite at ease in his heart.This Gou Dai was not like his subordinates, he praised Liang Junche all over the place, his boasting was far-fetched and incoherent, completely missing the point.
But it also shows that this person really understands Jun Che.
Liang Si looked at Gou Dai with more complicated emotions.
He wasn't enlightened enough to laugh at the two immortal couples.But let him beat mandarin ducks with a stick, he can't do it.Besides, their old Liang family is stubborn in their bones, he is, Liang Zhuangyuan is, Liang Junche is no exception, blunt methods can only cause counterproductive results.
I thought I'd let the two of them mess around for a while, and after a while their relationship faded, so it's natural that they get together and part ways.But seeing Liang Junche's cautious appearance, he knew that it might not be easy to leave.
Who made the Liang family always deeply rooted in love.
Mr. Liang is also thinking about it. His children and grandchildren have their own blessings, so he doesn't get involved too much.Anyway, now that someone is taking care of Liang Junche for him, the ideas of Liang Zhuangyuan and his wife have also changed. At worst, they will give birth to a grandson for him.
Liang Si, who had successfully enlightened himself, spoke a lot softer to Gou Dai.He had investigated the child's life experience, and was quite impressed. Some people may be born as noble and pure Qinglians, who can emerge from the mud without being stained.
Old Man Liang let out a long sigh: "Since Jun Che has chosen you, you are willing to accept him, and I will not get involved in the affairs of you young people."
Gou Dai obviously didn't expect Mr. Liang to give up so quickly, even skipping the basic link of throwing the check.
"It's the first time you come to Liang's house, I always give you some presents. Take whatever you like in this office, and take it away." Mr. Liang said grandly.
Gou Dai smiled, but instead of pushing and shoving for a few rounds, she stood up unceremoniously, and paced back and forth in front of the display cabinets in the big office.
"The most expensive here should be this Yuan blue and white figure bottle?" Gou Dai asked.
"Oh, I really have a good eye. If you like it, I'll have someone send it over tomorrow." Liang Si said aloud.
Gou Dai couldn't help sighing in his heart that he really had a lot of money, he and Qiu Ren participated in an auction, and there was also a figure bottle of Yuan blue and white, which was not as good as this one, and it was nearly [-] million.
However, he has little interest in antiques, and he doesn't like to accept heavy gifts from others.
Gou Dai walked around and stopped at the painting next to the fish tank.
It was an authentic oil painting, but the painting was a traditional Chinese dragon. It was lifelike, with exquisite brush and ink, except that it lacked eyes.
"How about this painting?" Mr. Liang asked.
"The colors are bright and flowing, but there is no signature, so I can't tell which famous artist it is? Without eyes, do you want to learn from the allusion of 'finishing the finishing touch'?"
Mr. Liang smiled: "This is drawn by Jun Che." After a pause for a few seconds, he added, "When I was in the sixth grade."
Gou Dai was surprised, he couldn't see that Liang Junche had such an accomplishment in painting.
Mr. Liang took off the picture frame, and there was a file bag hanging behind the picture frame.Mr. Liang opened the file bag and took out what was inside. It turned out to be a test paper.
Old Man Liang smiled proudly and full of memories: "This is why Jun Che made this painting back then."
Gou Dai looked at the test paper. It was a Chinese test paper. Except for the ugly handwriting, the content was correct. The only point where points were deducted was the last question of reading comprehension.
The title article is the ancient prose of Mr. Ye who loves dragons, "Young Master Ye is fond of dragons. He hooks to write dragons, chisels to write dragons, and carved inscriptions to write dragons in the room. So Tianlong heard it, peeped at the head in the box, and put the tail in the hall. When Ye Gong saw it, he abandoned it and went back, losing his soul, and the five colors have no owner..."
There is also a picture corresponding to the article below the article.
The question stem is to ask candidates to write a dialogue between Long and Ye Gong based on the original text.
This topic is obviously expanded on the words "Ye Gong is not a good dragon, a good husband is like a dragon but not a dragon".
The answer of a normal child is probably——
Long: Don't you like me?
Ye Gong: No, you are too scary.
Dragon: So you don't really like me, you just like the dragon in your imagination.
However, Liang Junche was obviously a thoughtful child when he was young, and his answer was——
Long: What did you draw?
Ye Gong: What are you, I have a talent like Van Gogh.
Long: Don't worry about it, you have found the reason why Van Gogh cut off one of his ears. It turned out that he heard your humiliation.
Gou Dai looked at Liang Junche's crooked handwriting and the big cross with the marking teacher beside him, and couldn't laugh or cry.
Mr. Liang is very proud: "Ah Che was very thoughtful when he was a child, and he even asked his teacher to argue, thinking that the standard answer was not standard. He said that the dragon drawn by Mr. Ye in this illustration is so ugly, even a dragon would be angry."
Gou Dai couldn't help laughing.
Old Man Liang: "Of course the teacher doesn't accept this reason, and deducted his points. Jun Che drew this picture as soon as he got angry, which proves how horrible the illustrations in the test paper are."
Gou Dai smiled and shook his head, sure enough, it is three years old and seven years old, Xiao Liang always has his own style when he was young.
"Then I want this painting." Gou Dai said.
"Eh?" Mr. Liang was startled, and he couldn't take it back when he said it, "This painting is worthless, you can change it."
Gou Dai: "I think it's pretty good, including this paper."
Liang Si's face was full of "mistakes".
When the two went downstairs, Liang Junche had already paced back and forth hundreds of times in the living room, and was relieved to see that Gou Dai was intact.
Liang Junche saw the painting in Gou Dai's hands, and his face became hot: "What are you doing with this thing?"
When he made this painting, he was in a period of self-doubt when he was hurt by his parents, he was in conflict with heaven and man every day, and he was in the transitional period of transformation from a good boy to a rebellious teenager.
This painting is like the parrot-colored hair when they first met, it can be called Liang Junche's shameful witness.
Gou Dai teased: "Isn't this to get to know Mr. Xiao Liang deeply?"
Liang Junche blushed from being ridiculed, and secretly said in his heart, I will let you know how deep it is when I go back.
