"Ha, a little money, a lot of money. I'm afraid these are not two brothers who have been separated for many years. I remember a movie about two twins who were carried by the wrong person in the hospital. As a result, their life trajectories were very different. One was in the sky and the other was on the ground. ." Chen Xi, who had been silent, suddenly interrupted.
"It's all scripted and arranged by the director. How can there be such a coincidence." Although Chen Yifeng said this, his eyes kept staring at the TV screen. In fact, he loved watching this program. Just don't admit it.
Indeed, some aspects of this program are indeed well designed.
In his previous life, Chen Xi and Luo Yiming once looked at each other in a foot spa shop and made trouble. A female guest on the stage happened to be Luo Yiming's elementary school classmate, but the information was all different from reality...< br>
"Okay, Qian Duoduo. Judging from your body shape... you usually eat well." Meng De stood in front of Qian Duoduo, compared their belly with the other party, and finally chuckled. Shaked his head.
"Haha, there are a lot of delicacies at my doorstep. I eat them in different ways every day, a bite of coke rings, a bite of pickles, and a bite of adzuki bean juice. It's so authentic!" Qian Duoduo gave a thumbs up and proudly praised the cuisine of his hometown. advertise.
"Ha." Seeing this, Chen Xi couldn't help but smile.
Actually, this soybean juice is not as bad as what is said on the Internet. He had drunk it before when he opened a company in Huajing, but if you say it tastes good, he didn't think it was good. Maybe he is not used to drinking it.
"Okay, you have a lot of money, please choose the girl you are interested in." Meng De stopped talking nonsense and handed over the tablet.
This Qian Duoduo is wearing a casual suit and a slicked back hair. He looks like a boss.
Therefore, the female guests present also puffed up their chests and wanted to show off their pride.
"Ha." Looking at the performance of the female guests on TV, everyone in the Chen family was happy.
"Okay, please watch the first segment of the VCR." Meng De took back the tablet and went directly to the next link.
"I am Qian Duoduo. I am twenty-eight years old this year. I am a real old Huajing. My family lives in XXX Hutong, which is an old place. Next to it is the former Wangfu. , the accumulation of history has made me have a strong interest in antiques since I was a child.
When it comes to antiques, it is a university subject. I am engaged in the antique industry. For several years, I have dealt with objects full of stories and histories every day. I think there are actually many similarities between appraising women and appraising antiques. You see, antiques require careful observation and careful appreciation to discover their true value. ; As for a woman, you also need to understand and feel her heart to discover her unique charm
I am a straight-tempered person. If I like something, I like it. If I don’t like it, I don’t like it. The same goes for me when it comes to finding my other half. I hope to find someone with whom I can share the same goals and aspirations, share every detail of life, and pursue a higher spiritual realm together.
When it comes to finding your partner, you can’t be in a hurry, you have to take your time. I believe that fate will always come. Just like the antiques I found, sometimes I can discover real treasures inadvertently..."
In the VCR, there is a scene of Qian Duoduo eating in various small shops, which gives the impression that he is a Foodie.
But, this paragraph The VCR did not show pictures of houses, cars, antique shops, etc. This made the women at the scene very anxious, so they all chose to keep the lights on and wanted to ask about the specific situation.
"Well, the same thing. He is twenty-eight years old, and this man is really good at it. For those who deal in antiques, it seems like each item costs hundreds of thousands. "Meng De patted Qian Duoduo's back, and then looked at his palms, which were covered with sweat.
"You seem to be very hot." Meng De joked.
"Haha, I'm fat and sweat easily." Qian Duoduo lifted his belt, deliberately revealing the logo of the brand-name belt.
"Okay, do the female guests on the stage have anything to ask?" Meng De looked at several women who had raised their hands.
“Me!”
“No. 18, please say.”
"Male guest, the antiques industry seems to be mostly done by older people. How come you are involved in this industry when you are only twenty-eight years old?" The woman was very smart and wanted to inquire about the man's family situation.
Sure enough, what Qian Duoduo said next made her heart pound.
"I inherited my father's business, and some things are passed down from my family."
Qian Duoduo's answer satisfied the other women, which shows that his family's conditions are pretty good. Can.
"No. 11, what do you have to ask?" Meng De said looking at the woman who was about to jump up.
"I would like to ask the male guest, there are many courtyard houses in your alleys in Huajing, which seem to be very valuable. Your family lives next to the palace, so the house must be very expensive. I heard that in the past, high-ranking officials and aristocrats paid attention to Feng Shui when choosing their residences. ." The woman's eyes almost turned pale when she looked at Qian Duoduo.
"The feng shui must be good, the place is spacious, warm in winter and cool in summer." Qian Duoduo took out a handkerchief from his suit and wiped the sweat on his head.
"Male guest, what kind of car do you drive? A big boss like you probably rides either a Bentley or a Rolls-Royce." Female guest No. 3 asked.
“I don’t like that kind of car. I usually drive a car without a roof. It’s so cool!” Qian Duoduo explained.
“Wow, that’s a convertible.” A female guest clapped her hands.
Women like them like convertibles the most, because the effect of installing 13 can be greatly improved.
"Yes." Qian Duoduo nodded.
"Then how much money can you make in a month?" someone asked again.
“In the antique business, if you don’t open for three years, you will only be able to survive for three years after opening...” Qian Duoduo straightened his hair.
"Okay, please watch the next VCR." Meng De interrupted the female guests who wanted to continue asking questions and pointed to the screen.
[The VCR opens, and the picture gradually appears. Qian Duoduo is sitting at a slightly quaint desk. In the background are rows of neat bookshelves. Soft lights shine on his face, creating a calm and profound atmosphere. ]
[The camera slowly advanced, Qian Duoduo gently picked up a book with a yellowed cover, with some thoughts in his eyes, and then slowly said: "In this fast-paced, materialistic era, , I often think about true love, What should it look like? Is there still such purity that is not moved by money, but only by the mutual attraction and clinging of two hearts? "
[The scene switches to the night scene outside the window, with dim lights, and The quietness of the interior is a stark contrast. 】
“It is undeniable that I have witnessed too many emotional entanglements caused by money. Those women who put a clear price on love and regard their partners as cash machines make me deeply saddened and despised. Love, if it is Having lost its original innocence and sacrifice, it is like a body that has lost its soul, empty and boring."
[The camera returns to Qian Duoduo, and he gently closes the book. 】
"Therefore, in my view on mate selection, what I long for is the right woman who can share the good times and adversity with me. I am not a stingy person, but for my future partner, I value her more. Inner qualities, whether you have an independent personality, whether you understand You have to cherish and be grateful, and whether you can stick to your true heart and remain unmoved in the face of material temptations." [The picture is interspersed with fragments of simple life, where the couple has a picnic in the countryside, rides a bicycle together, and cooks simple meals together at home. Dinner was filled with warmth and happiness. 】
“I plan to go through a seemingly ‘hard life’ with my partner during the first few years of dating and even marriage. This is not to deliberately create difficulties. , but to test whether our relationship is established Based on sincere emotions, not just the pursuit of material conditions. I believe that true love can withstand the test of time and poverty and shine more dazzlingly."
[Lens. Finally, it was fixed on Qian Duoduo’s smile. 】
“I look forward to you who is willing to join hands with me to discover the extraordinary in the ordinary and taste happiness in the simplicity. Because in the end, what makes us dependent on each other is not the accumulation of money, but the love of the soul. Fit and mutual understanding.”
[The picture fades and the VCR ends. 】
Seeing this, Chen Xi looked at Chen Yifeng secretly, and saw that the other party had a serious face, as if he was thinking about something.
Zhang Xuan, on the other hand, covered her face with a bowl while drinking soup, and her expression at this time could not be seen at all.
After the VCR finished playing, the female guests on the stage looked a little unhappy, and some even chose to turn off the lights directly.
"Haha, this VCR short film seems to be very lethal! I am still very curious about the idea of the female guest who turned off the lights. Please tell me." Meng De smiled from ear to ear, Pointing to the women who turned off the lights.
"I have nothing to say. I'm from the south. I can't stand the weather in Huajing and I don't want to marry far away." The first woman made an excuse.
“I think his thoughts and views are a bit inconsistent with mine. I married to enjoy happiness, not to suffer. What age are we in, and we still pay attention to hardship, so you might as well take me to the countryside to farm. "Yes." The second woman directly said what she was thinking, which was also what the other female guests were thinking.
"Love must be based on money and material things. If you don't spend money on me, then I might as well choose the one just now, at least a little more handsome than you." The third woman is also the same. Be blunt.
“I agree with both of you just now. I think if a man loves a woman, he must be willing to spend money on her. If you don’t spend money, you don’t love her. Who would be so unkind to their lover? What? It's just like if you like a product, you will spend a lot of money. Buy it. If you don’t like it that much and think it is unnecessary, you will choose to give up. You just said that you would take a woman to endure hardships, and it was only after marriage, and it was several years ago. What kind of international joke are you making? I don’t believe that any woman would. "Hold on." The third woman said a lot, and her words made the other female guests nod.
"This female guest, I want to correct your wrong view. Women are not commodities and cannot be obtained with money. What you just said is an insult to all women." Huang Yi, who has always been good-tempered, is really He couldn't help but speak.
"Teacher Huang Yi, you may be too old to keep up with the times. In this era, women only need to dress themselves up beautifully. We provide emotional value to men, which is actually a kind of transaction. Wait until you get married. Now, we still have to give birth to and raise children, what a huge sacrifice it is, shouldn’t men spend money on us?” the female guest immediately countered after hearing this.
This made Huang Yi so angry that she actually said she was old in front of so many people present.
"This female guest, I am a man, or a normal man. If I choose to spend money, I will definitely not spend money on you. People like you are useless in my eyes." Meng De stood up and spoke for Huang Yi.
“I can’t communicate with you elderly people.” The female guest dropped a sentence and stopped talking.
However, some of the female guests present did not choose to turn off the lights. They were thinking about whether to ask more questions.
"There are still 7 lights on the stage. You still have a chance. Please watch the short interview with a friend!" Meng De didn't wait for everyone's reaction, waved his hand, and the picture on the screen began to change again.
“I grew up with Qian Duoduo. Qian Duoduo is a bit poor and particular. He eats food from small shops on the side of the alley every day, but he still has to look high-end.
A portion of stewed stew can give you the feeling of a fine meal, which is why tourists from other places complain about it The food is unpalatable, and he has to use his non-standard Beijing accent to educate others. In fact, he is not our old Huajing at all. In the past, he was from the countryside of Huajing, no, he was from another city..." A senior citizen It must be more festive, with the man sniffing his nose and waving to the camera in a funny way while talking.
This made Qian Duoduo sweat even more, and the handkerchief that was originally used to wipe the sweat was completely wet at this time.
“Hahaha!” Many audience members laughed.
"Hello everyone, I am Qian Duoduo's neighbor. Have you seen that? The serious XX Prince's Mansion of the Qing Dynasty, where Mr. Baylor once lived. Look at the decoration at the door. Before, you didn't even have a chance to look at it. The door The guards will kick you away..."
Seeing this, Qian Duoduo's face instantly looked much better, and his waist straightened up.
Not only him, but the livid faces of the female guests at the scene also softened. In any case, it is true that they live next to the palace. How valuable that house is, I dare not even think about it.
However, it didn’t take long for the painting style to change. The man in the VCR changed his appearance and said: "Do you know what the house price here is? Even if it is eight figures, you may not be able to get it. Our family Apart from the palace, this is the best house here. Yes, it’s bigger and more breathable than the basement where Qian Duo lives. If there are any female guests interested in me, please contact me. Anyone who wants to buy a house can also contact me..."
"Hahaha." Seeing this, many people laughed again.
"Dong~"
"Dong-dong!" Three more lights on the stage went out.
There are four female guests who still don’t give up.
Then the camera turned to an interview scene with another uncle.
It was winter time in Huajing. The uncle was curled up and sitting on a simple bench. His hands were tightly hidden in his sleeves to keep warm. His body was shivering unconsciously due to the cold.
In front of you, a wide plastic sheet was spread out on the cold ground, with a variety of colorful old objects scattered on it.
“Qian Duoduo is really the worst businessman on our street. Look at us, which one of us is not running around collecting goods from outside in a serious manner? We are so windy He came and went in the rain just to buy some good things. But as for him, all the things he sold were his father's. My mother rode a tricycle and collected rags from door to door. Tell me, can a person who deals with rags all day really know any good old things?
Occasionally, he can. Parents may also be lucky and pick out one or two good things from those junk piles, but they don’t have the discernment to do so. You can't tell the difference between good and bad. As a result, those knowledgeable customers missed it and bought the real treasure at a low price.
You are in our line of business. , that is not something that just anyone can do. We all rely on the techniques passed down from our ancestors and the experience passed down from generation to generation. Experience and vision are no joke. It's not easy for someone like Qian Duoduo, who has no real ability and no ancestral skills, to still get involved in this industry... Hey, I've been there. Don’t miss it if you pass by, it’s a serious jade ring, used by Lafayette…” As the uncle spoke, he started to shout.
"Hahaha!" The people at the scene burst into laughter again.
After working on it for a long time, I found out that the convertible that Qian Duoduo was talking about was a tricycle.
This time, Qian Duoduo really revealed his true colors.
There is not even an antique shop, and they have to make a living by running street vendors. The most important thing is that their parents still collect rags.
This sudden truth is completely different from the original expectations and assumptions of the female guests present. (End of this chapter)
