"Junior brother!!!"
A few days later, the sun was shining and the weather was fine.
At ten o'clock in the morning, Zhang Yuan asked his assistant to drive to the downstairs of a residential area in Imperial Capital.
Opening the car door, facing the corridor entrance, the call was broadcast immediately.
Not long after, a crisp and wonderful sound came from inside the building.
Liu Shishi wore a bright red dress and a pair of pure white high heels.
The moment she saw him, she trotted happily and rushed straight towards him.
"Shh!" Zhang Yuan quickly gestured to her to be quiet and not to get excited.
First of all, this is their home, so it is easy for neighbors to hear.
He is too easily recognized now, and scandals can easily arise if he is not careful.
Secondly...
Zhang Yuan glanced upstairs.
Almost on the sixth floor, there was a good-looking middle-aged couple quietly sticking their heads out of the window and looking down.
Obviously, these are the little lion's parents.
According to this girl's style, if she hadn't seen her for a long time, she would jump into his arms when he saw her, and then hug her neck and kiss her.
My parents are watching!
What would you think?
Although Liu Shishi is also nineteen this year, she has already reached the age where love begins.
But you still can't go too far in front of other people's parents.
He quickly stretched out his hand in the car, made an interception motion, and pointed upward at the same time.
"Ah?" The little lion stuck his head towards the sky.
"It's not raining?"
Zhang Yuan:......
I know why your parents stuck their heads out and peeked.
They should be afraid that you will be abducted by traffickers...
She is quite a tall girl, but her brain and breasts have not grown. Where did all her nutrition go?
However, after this interruption, she calmed down.
Zhang Yuan got out of the car, helped her get into the back seat of the commercial vehicle, and buckled her seat belt.
Only then did he get on the bus again from the other side.
The parents upstairs felt a little relieved when they saw that the "junior brother" whom their daughter often mentioned behaved very gentlemanly towards her.
The vehicle drove all the way to the city.
Today is the 100-day banquet for Brother Qian’s son Guo Xiaobao...Yu Siyang.
It was also the apprenticeship banquet for the infant boy.
At the same time, I paid my respects to Teacher Guo and him.
Following Teacher Guo, of course I am following the cross talk tradition.
It is normal for children of partners to learn from each other.
After that, Guo Qilin will also pay homage to Brother Qian.
The reason for worshiping him is said to be the storytelling sect.
But Zhang Yuan learned a lot from Mr. Yuan and received guidance from the oldest storytelling master in the world.
But he did not officially become a disciple.
It stands to reason that even he himself does not have a formal inheritance in the storytelling world, so the idea of becoming a disciple is a bit false.
But who is Brother Qian?
In terms of cleverness, Mr. Guo is a front-row figure in the crosstalk industry.
But when it comes to great wisdom, Brother Qian is the real master!
Yu Qian's idea is very clear.
Just because there is no inheritance now, does not mean there will never be one.
With my brother's ability and reputation, it shouldn't be too easy to find a storytelling successor.
But what he wants must be the highest and strongest inheritance.
The other one, Brother Qian, apparently came here for storytelling.
In fact, the real goal is to connect his son with a network of people in the entertainment industry.
At the same time, it can also strengthen the connection between himself and Zhang Yuan himself.
Zhang Yuan knew it and was willing to accept it.
After all, with the character and conduct of Brother Qian and Sister Qian, the children they teach will not be too bad.
Family tradition is important.
And why did you bring Liu Shishi here?
I haven’t seen you for a long time. Although I’m busy, I can’t just ignore them all the time.
"Woo..."
They hadn't seen each other for several months now, and not long after the car drove out, the little lion stared at him.
Then we got closer and closer...
About five minutes later, Zhao Yuanjie, who was driving, looked in the rearview mirror and saw that she had unbuckled her seat belt and was sitting in the arms of her boss.
Raising the swan's neck, closing his eyes slightly, he took the initiative to look like he was ready to pluck.
The assistant peeked in from time to time.
She didn't expect that this innocent-looking girl would be so proactive.
And he was so bold that he didn't care about the presence of a third party like her.
"Yeah!" At this time, the little lion exclaimed: "Someone is here..."
Zhao Xuexuan:......
She wasn't bold, she was forgetful and didn't even notice anyone was there.
The assistant Xin said, I am not here, are you two driving alone?
"Okay, there will be a lot of people soon. Please tidy up your clothes." Zhang Yuan smoothed her hair for her.
The reason why she was asked to accompany him to today's 100-day banquet was because her grandfather was a performer, so it was not against the rules for her to appear.
In addition, you have to discuss with her in advance about the sugar man.
In addition, letting her go to the scene today has other uses.
The little lion touched up the lipstick he had rubbed off and straightened the wrinkled clothes on his chest.
"Brother Zhang Yuan, your cheeks..." Zhao Yuanjie glanced at the rearview mirror and reminded again.
"Hehehe..." Liu Shishi took out a tissue and helped him wipe away the several lip marks he had left just now.
"Pay attention later." Zhang Yuan looked at her with doting eyes.
"I know, I miss you."
No. 11, Exhibition Hall Road, Xicheng District.
The vehicle was parked in front of the main entrance of Hongbin Building, a famous hotel in the imperial capital.
Zhang Yuan took Liu Shishi's white and tender little hand and walked inside together.
"Here we come!" Qian Ge came to the gate to greet him.
The most famous restaurants in the imperial capital are the Eight Buildings, the Eight Great Halls, the Eight Great Spring, and the Eight Great Juyi.
Many people think that Hongbin Building is one of the eight buildings, but it is not.
Hung Hing Building is one of the eight buildings.
Although Hongbin Building is not the Eighth Building, it is also the most famous restaurant in the Imperial Capital. It is even more famous than half of the Eighth Building.
This old restaurant was first built in the third year of Xianfeng.
In 1955, he accepted the Prime Minister's call and went to Beijing together with a large number of time-honored brands from all over the country.
In fact, this is very unfair, even though it is a national call.
However, many time-honored restaurants have lost their local talent and gradually declined.
Because all the elites were dragged to the imperial capital.
But even if time-honored brands and top chefs from across the country were invited, the imperial capital of later generations was still often dubbed a food desert.
The reason why Brother Qian chose Hongbin Restaurant is that the food is really authentic.
Sea cucumbers roasted with green onions, double crispy fried in oil, chicken slices with hibiscus, fried dandelions with coriander... These dishes are very difficult and difficult to prepare in small restaurants.
But they are all the signatures of Hongbin Tower.
There are also famous dishes such as grilled shark's fin, braised oxtail, and lamb's head in casserole, which have maintained a very high quality to later generations.
Very rare among the generally degenerate long-established brands.
The plaque at the door is also inscribed by Mr. Guo Moruo.
Mr. Guo's calligraphy seems to be quite common on the plaques of time-honored brands in the imperial capital, and he is probably a foodie.
Another point is that Hongbinlou is a halal restaurant.
Many old gentlemen in the folk art world are Hui people. Brother Qian chose this place to cater to their tastes.
"Teacher Guo!"
"Teacher Wang."
I took care of Guo Degang and his wife.
"This must be your noble master." Then he looked at the fat man wearing black-rimmed glasses next to the two of them.
"My son Qilin." Teacher Guo replied.
Teacher Guo's disciples were also by his side and greeted him one by one.
"Hello." Zhang Yuan nodded and squatted next to Guo Qilin with a smile: "Yu Qian is your would-be master."
"It is natural for an apprentice to eat his master. You will have to eat more in a while."
"Hey..." The child glanced at his father cautiously before replying in a low voice.
Teacher Guo's disciples were all whispering when they saw Liu Shishi next to him.
They are all young men, so they are naturally interested in seeing beautiful girls.
But because of Zhang Yuan's relationship, I didn't dare to take a second look.
Although Zhang Yuan rarely goes to the cross talk club, his "prestige" is still there.
They all knew about the cleanup of the imperial capital for their master's wife's men, so no one dared to touch him.
But what Zhang Yuan said...
"It is natural for an apprentice to eat his master", these people have heard it in their ears.
Of course, Zhang Yuan originally told them.
"Brother Qian, where's my sister-in-law?" After chatting for a while, they came to Yu Qian's side, whose face was red and his brows were happy.
"I'm feeding the baby."
"Oh, that's not suitable for visiting."
"According to what you say, I still have to sell tickets."
After joking with Brother Qian, Bai Huiming came to him with Yu Siyang in his arms.
"The heaven is full, the earth pavilion is round, it looks good."
"Do you think he looks like me or Qian?" Qian's wife, whose figure has not yet recovered, asked with a smile.
"Who does it look like..." Zhang Yuan pondered, took out a pack of soft Chinese medicine from his pocket, took one out, and waved it in front of the child.
The child didn't even open his eyes. He stretched out his hand and pulled the cigarette away.
Zhang Yuan pointed at Yu Qian: "He obviously looks like you!"
"That's it for me!" Brother Qian said while taking something out of his pocket: "Here, son, a lighter..."
Half an hour later, Zhang Yuan led the little lion and sat at the main table with Guo Yu and his wife, Hou Yuewen, Shi Fukuan and several seniors in the folk arts industry.
Brother Qian gave a speech and thanked the guests. Mrs. Qian also smiled and said a few words, and then the banquet began.
The food was good, but he and Liu Shishi were both actors, so they didn't eat anything in order to stay in shape.
When it was almost half eaten, everyone started to play around with the child, giving red envelopes to red envelopes when it was time, and giving gifts to gifts when it was time to do so.
Zhang Yuan asked his assistant to hand him a gift bag.
"Come, Brother Qian, give me a gift from my apprentice."
He went to a gold shop to get a 24K gold lock in advance.
There is a red rope tied to it, which can be hung directly around the child's neck.
The front of the lock is engraved with "Long Life" and the other side is engraved with "Happiness and Health".
The most gold jewelry given by others is the size of a fingernail.
But when he took out this, it weighed more than 300 grams!
The same weight as a gold bar commonly known as "big yellow croaker".
All pressed.
"Ouch."
"Oh my god!"
"This big golden lump!"
In 2006, the gold price was cheap, only around 100.
This big lump of money only cost more than 30,000 yuan.
But this "but" is for him.
For most folk artists, they can’t earn more than 30,000 yuan a year!
When these people saw this big golden lock, their eyes were blood red.
I think people in the film and television industry are rich!
Brother Qian was a little surprised.
Zhang Yuan usually keeps a low profile, but today he was a bit unusual.
To blatantly give out such a large piece of gold feels like suppressing other people's gifts.
"This is too expensive!" Qian's wife was so surprised that she opened her mouth wide.
"None of our family members have ever given me such heavy gold jewelry."
Yu Qian:......
Why did you turn it on me?
I was murmuring in my heart, but Brother Qian was also very happy when he saw this gift.
My heart says my brother is so interesting!
Everyone knows that gifting children is an excuse, but in fact the gifts are for the parents.
"Hang this golden lock on my son's neck."
"The child will suffer from cervical spondylosis before he reaches one year old." Brother Qian expressed his gratitude jokingly.
[Received thanks from Yu Qian, +1 for rock basics! 】
After eating for a while, we asked the restaurant to remove the banquet and make room.
Then pull up the banner prepared in advance.
Stay there until around 3pm.
This is an auspicious time to find someone to count.
Teacher Guo is also quite a bitch.
He agreed to accept a disciple, so he simply accepted not only Brother Qian's son.
Instead, he took his first batch of apprentices together to perform the apprenticeship ceremony.
Yu Siyang ranks fifth.
In front are He Yunwei, Cao Yunjin, Kong Yunlong, and Luan Yunping.
Kong Deshui, who came with Xiao Yue, was able to become a disciple, but he could only go on stage once a week.
The envy of this little fat guy...
And regardless of his small grade, according to the layout, Xiaoyue will have to call Brother Qian's son senior brother from now on.
The three Yin Baodai masters are Zhang Wenshun, an old literary gentleman of Deyuan Society, Hou Yuewen and Shi Fukuan. These three are all seniors in the cross talk business.
After the ceremony, it was Zhang Yuan's turn.
Brother Qian hired Wang Yuebo, a fat and tall man who had just come to Deyuan Society, to act as the guide.
Because his master is Ma Zengkun, who is also Lian Liru’s godson.
Lian Liru's father is Lian Kuoru, who was of the same generation as Yuan Kuocheng, but the old man passed away in 1971.
In addition to his artistic prowess, Mr. Yuan’s strongest point is his longevity.
His peers had disappeared more than ten years ago.
Now when the old man talks about the past, no one dares to refute his boasts, because the parties involved are all dead.
There are also two young people from the storytelling industry who serve as guardians and acting teachers.
Just give me a red envelope.
It's just a formality anyway.
Brother Qian knew very well that what he wanted was for his son to become Zhang Yuan's first disciple, and possibly even his only disciple.
The actors and actresses all make up the numbers. Although Zhang Yuan is the most famous in the eyes of the audience because of his relationship with the film and television industry and "Harry Potter".
But traditional industries have the most villains and discord.
"Hey!"
"Why should a layman accept him as his apprentice?"
"Just say yes."
"We have been following the rules for many years, but we have to let people like this make trouble."
"He's just a liar. I guess the big golden lock I gave you just now is hollow."
"Hey, it must be!"
"Brother Qian may have been deceived by him."
A large group of people in the back row became crickets.
Many people are not familiar with him, but because of the big golden lump just now, they also have opinions about him.
If a tree is beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy it. This is human nature.
Of course Zhang Yuan understood, but he remained calm and didn't take it seriously at all.
The ceremony ended successfully.
Liu Shishi came to him with an unhappy expression.
He doesn't care, someone else does.
"Junior brother, they said bad things about you!"
The little lion's pair of beautiful eyebrows were frowned together.
"Oh?"
"What did you say?"
"They said you..."
Zhang Yuan listened for a long time.
Yuan Kuocheng also said that she could not remember the words.
Why do you remember so clearly what people scolded me?
Memorize it like a stream!
"How come the quality of these people in the music industry is worse than those in the entertainment industry." Liu Shishi replied with a fierce face.
You are so good at talking... Zhang Yuan thought to himself, scolding both circles in one sentence.
But it can be considered as progress, and I know what to do.
I understand that there are many bad people in the entertainment industry.
Just say she was just a little dazed, not really stupid.
After muttering a lot, Liu Shishi's mouth was dry, so she took a few sips of coconut milk to quench her thirst.
"They are all bad people when they say that to you!"
"Hmph!"
"I'm going to complain to Grandpa Yuan and let him deal with them!"
Zhang Yuan: It’s a deal, double happiness is coming!
Why did you bring her here today? This is why!
He just gave away such a big pile of gold in front of everyone for this reason.
People will feel inferior in front of gold and silver wealth.
Once people feel inferior, they will instinctively attack and belittle others in order to gain psychological balance.
Liu Shishi is better here.
Even if she wasn't here, what these people said today would have to reach the old man's ears sooner or later.
After all, how "smart" these people are.
Designate someone to inform you, hoping to gain the old man's favor.
Maybe someone has already written it down in a notebook.
What's more, maybe the informer was one of the people who just scolded him.
As people get older, it is easier to protect their shortcomings.
Mr. Yuan had never had an apprentice in his life, so Zhang Yuan expected that he was struggling.
Then he was ready to help the old man speed up.
Today is just an introduction, no rush.
Although he was the one being scolded, he still had to comfort the angry little lion.
Brother Qian was watching, and he had just heard the gossip.
After pondering over it, I have a rough idea.
"My brother is trying to set a trap for the old man!"
Brother Qian remained calm, pretending not to understand, and then went to entertain other guests to eat celebratory cakes.
After placating her for a long time, Zhang Yuan originally asked her to visit his home and have a meal by the way.
If you look at it, if it's too late, you can stay overnight.
After staying overnight, you can check your body.
After checking your body, you can learn new postures.
But Liu Shishi lowered her head and said that her mother asked her to go home for dinner and said she was waiting for her.
Before Zhang Yuan's marriage, his parents looked up and understood that they were worried about their girl.
So I had to give up.
If you really force yourself to stay, what will you do if your parents come knocking on your door?
The young senior sister was pulling him to agree on when to meet next time, when she heard a series of cell phone ringtones coming from her pocket.
She reluctantly took out her phone.
It was as if she disliked the ringtone for interrupting her conversation with Zhang Yuan.
She wanted to press off, but after seeing the caller ID, she pouted and then reluctantly pressed the answer button.
"Hello..."
Zhang Yuan waited quietly.
But as I waited, I realized something was wrong.
Because Liu Shishi's face gradually distorted, showing an extremely frightened expression.
Tears welled up in both eyes...(End of Chapter)
