Chapter 319 Wen Leyu: Don’t take it seriously
On New Year’s Eve in 1984, Li Ye and his two sisters were busy working on something in the yard, and his sister Li Ying kept urging.
"Brother, can you hurry up? The Spring Festival Gala will start soon."
"Isn't there still an hour left? Why are you in a hurry?"
“She is just obsessed with watching color TV and has no future at all.”
"How can I say who doesn't want to watch color TV sets?"
Because Hong Kong Island wants to jointly develop an instant noodle factory with Qingshui, before the Chinese New Year, Hong Kong Island sent a few color TV sets as a "friendship gift."
As the facilitator of the joint venture, Li Zhongfa was naturally assigned one.
I have to say that the Investment Department Minister Hu selected by Pei Wencong is still very good at getting things done. It only took him half a year to fully adapt to the people and things in the mainland, and he can do big things with a small amount of money.
At this time in 1983, black and white TV sets were not yet fully popular in the mainland!
For people who are used to watching fourteen-inch black and white TVs, suddenly switching to a twenty-inch large remote control color TV will feel like admiring alien black technology.
But Li Ye has no interest in "twenty-one shakes" at all. Even if he is given an eighty-inch color TV, it will not be as satisfying as the thing he is busy with.
Li Ying watched Li Ye toss out something that was similar to the straw that sells candied haws, and couldn't help but asked: "Brother, you tied so many colorful bead tubes together, are you not afraid of exploding?" ?"
Before Li Ye said anything, Li Juan said angrily: "Don't you? If you can speak, don’t tell me. Do you know how many points my brother got in the math, physics and chemistry exams? Do you understand this? Damn you!”
“I’m just asking,” Li Ying pouted. Mouth, muttered: "Have I never seen it before? This is called shameless asking."
"You are so knowledgeable! Do you know what it means to ask without shame? You have the nerve to use this word."
Li Ye listened to the two girls bickering, which was quite interesting.
He tied all the colorful bead tubes tightly with hemp rope, and then said: "I tell you! This thing is called Gatling. It is inspired by a weapon from the Lighthouse Country during the Civil War. It is the best weapon in the world. The earliest machine gun."
When Gatling fireworks appeared in later generations, fireworks had been banned in most areas of the mainland, so Li Ye, as a law-abiding citizen, really never enjoyed that kind of fun.
Even the brave guys were shouting while holding Gatling, while looking left and right, always paying attention to whether there would be red and blue flashing lights.
You know, putting flowers is a temporary pleasure, but the fines are also heavy!
But there were no such concerns in 1984. Even if Li Ye went to the door of his second uncle's unit to release it, people inside would probably come out to applaud Li Ye!
However, the concerns Li Ying mentioned just now are reasonable. Li Ye cannot fully guarantee the safety of hand-rubbing Gatling.
So Li Ye took a piece of wood nearly two meters long. stick, and then tie dozens of colorful bead tubes to one end of the stick. Although it is top-heavy, it is highly safe.
"Okay, let's go out and light a fire, oh no, light a fire."
After tying up two of them in succession, Li Ye led the two sisters towards the door of Li's house.
Han Chunmei, who was still busy in the kitchen, saw this scene and suddenly felt that she was not tired at all.
The two girls have such a brother, and their lives will be better and better in the future!
Li Juan and Li Ying grabbed a pile of firewood and lit a fire at the door. It looked like they had a lot of fun with this project.
Li Ye held a pole and plunged the fuses of dozens of colorful bead tubes into the fire, which immediately caused a "hissing" sound.
Then, colorful balls of light rushed up into the cold night sky like a fountain.
The "chucking" sound and colorful lights of the colorful bead tube quickly attracted the neighbors.
Looking at the fireworks that filled the sky like a rain of flowers, everyone couldn't help but sigh.
"That's the fool from Lao Li's family! He really has a lot of money to burn. This bald guy deserves at least four or five yuan."
"Four or five yuan can be bought. No, it costs at least six or seven dollars, look at what he has left! In these two minutes, half of our salary can be burned."
"Hey, hey, it's okay to just watch people covetously. Are they stupid? They are Wenquxing, a Wenquxing who can make money. If you can write novels and earn ten thousand or eighty thousand, no matter how bad it is I am also willing to pay for it"
"That is, if I have such a grandson, I will provide for him to fire off firecrackers every day"
" Oh, stop talking, we weren’t stupid when we were young! Otherwise, we would be making a lot of money now. Wenquxing is not a mortal, and he has to be different since he was a child."
Li Ye's "Tutu" release The one was a great relief, but just when I finished putting one in and was about to light the second one, my grandma Wu Juying shouted from the steps of the main room.
"Ono, phone, call from Beijing."
Li Ye had no choice but to put Gatlin down and quickly ran to the main room to answer the phone.
But as soon as he left, Li Kaijian grabbed the remaining Gatling stick and threw it onto the fire excitedly.
On the steps, Wu Juying whispered: "It's the girl from the Wen family. She's wishing me and your grandfather a happy New Year!"
"Oh~"
Li Ye couldn't care less about looking back at the "chugging" colorful ball. Wen Leyu was much more important than Gatlin.
When he answered the phone, it turned out to be Wen Leyu.
"Hey, what are you doing? I don't even know how to call my parents to say New Year greetings. I'm warning you! No matter how nice my mother is to you, don't take it seriously, remember. Are you staying?”
Through the phone, Li Ye could hear Wen Leyu’s anger.
However, this kind of warning "Don't offend my mother" sounds like a little daughter-in-law, who is afraid that my mother will withhold her household registration book and not give it to her.
Li Ye smiled and said, "I just set off fireworks. I planned to give Teacher Ke a New Year greeting at midnight, but I didn't expect you to call me first." "How old are you to set off fireworks?" Wen Leyu complained: "You still have to wait until midnight. Do you know that you won't be able to call me for another two hours?"
"I didn't expect this. Can I give your parents a New Year's greeting now?"
"Wait,"
Wen Leyu said to Li Ye , and then I heard her shouting: "Mom, Li Ye called you to wish you a happy new year!"
Hey, you said that if you miss such a caring little wife, where can you find it?
. . . . . . .
When it was almost eight o'clock and Li Zhongfa's calls began to be answered non-stop, Li Ye had a profound understanding of the telecommunications call situation in 1983.
Li Ye usually can get through after several calls, but Li Zhongfa’s comrades and colleagues all took a long time to get through. Li Zhongfa wanted to make a call, but it would take a lot of effort. The power of nine cows and two tigers.
Thinking about the fact that Beijing is the center of the country, and the identities of Teacher Ke and Wen Qingsheng, it is not an exaggeration at all for Wen Leyu to say that he cannot make calls.
But after eight o'clock, there were basically no calls.
Everyone should know not to disturb others watching the Spring Festival Gala.
This year's Spring Festival Gala has many highlights.
Previous galas were all about simple songs and dances, but in the 1984 Spring Festival Gala, language programs showed a strong advantage.
The stand-up comedy "Universe Brand Cigarettes" performed by Mr. Ma can be said to be combined with current events and satirized the false propaganda phenomenon of certain advertisements.
“If you don’t smoke my Universe cigarettes, young man, you won’t be able to get a partner!”
Audiences these days don’t have any awareness of anti-fraud. Once they see how good this thing is on TV, their belief is 100%!
Every time you cheat, you will be right. Even in the future, 8848, melatonin, etc. will mostly target people of this era.
When "Eating Noodles" performed by Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao was performed, the whole family burst into tears of laughter, even Li Zhongfa was no exception.
They have never seen this type of comedy.
After Li Zhong laughed for a long time, he suddenly said: "Hey, Xiaoye, I think this sketch is somewhat similar to your "The Return of the Wanderer"!"
Li Ye smiled and said: "The performance format is similar, but my level is higher."
In fact, when Li Ye first wrote the script for Sun Xianxian, he had not considered writing "Eating Noodles" "The Thief and the Cop" or "The Protagonist and the Supporting Actor", but later I gave it up respectfully.
This is the memory of an entire generation, and it is also a classic that has influenced hundreds of millions of viewers. It is better not to go too far.
When Zhang Mingmin, wearing a gray suit and scarf, came on stage and sang "My Chinese Heart", the sound of firecrackers outside seemed to have stopped.
This is the first time that a Hong Kong singer appears in front of the mainland public. His passionate tunes and soulful singing have captured everyone's ears.
In Li Ye's previous life, a well-known singer once said that when she met those Hong Kong and Taiwan singers backstage at the 1984 Spring Festival Gala, their clothes and demeanor gave everyone a new understanding.
But Li Ye is better off in this life, because many of the mainland actors participating in the Spring Festival Gala wear the "Fenghua brand".
When Jin Peng proudly offered to sponsor a set of Fenghua cards for all the participants for free, everyone praised his enthusiasm and righteousness.
But Li Ye felt that these old artists were so simple! If I have the opportunity in the future, I must make up for the endorsement fees.
But after singing "My Chinese Heart", Li Zhongfa realized something.
"Xiaoye, do you think there are any comments about the Hong Kong Island actors coming to our Spring Festival Gala?"
"What else can you say?" Li Ye said calmly: "The general trend is the trend! Hong Kong Island's There are still many discerning people."
Li Zhongfa's eyes narrowed and he said, "Are you so sure?"
Li Ye looked at Li Zhongfa and said doubtfully: "Grandpa, you are Old D. You actually doubt our strength?”
Li Zhongfa shook his head and said: “Of course I don’t doubt our strength, but if Hong Kong Island is determined to unify, our instant noodle factory can be more forceful in its negotiations. , now it’s others who have the final say, we don’t have enough confidence!”
Li Ye was stunned and said: "Grandpa, we don't push ourselves too far. People invest in money and technology, but you still want to sit on the ground and steal their skin?"
"What are you talking about? I They are the cadres of Qingshui County. If they are not against us, they are still against us"
Li Zhongfa suddenly thought of something, pulled Li Ye aside and asked in a low voice: "Xiaoye, don't you have a part in this instant noodle factory?"
"Grandpa, you asked that"
“Dingling bell~Dingling bell”
Li Yezheng found it hard to answer! The phone at home rang.
Li Zhongfa went over to answer the phone, and then looked at Li Ye strangely.
"This call is from Hong Kong, looking for Mr. Li. Which Mr. Li do you think it is?"
