And on the TV screen, there were images of programming, with a little girl sitting in front of a learning machine, learning programming by following the instructions in the prop book.

Next, Grandpa Li and Zou Wenjuan recited an advertising slogan side by side: "Start learning computers from a young age. Luzhong Rice Brand Learning Machine accompanies children as they grow up."

This is just for filming. If it actually appears on TV, they'll repeat the same thing at the end: "Luzhong Rice Learning Machine, factory address, agent recruitment hotline xxx-xxxxx."

Okay! Xing Baohua really couldn't think of any other good names. In his previous life, there was millet; in this era, there must be rice.

As for the logo, we'll use the dm artistic font. Anyway, there are plenty of students at the Academy of Arts and Crafts, and they don't have to pay design fees—isn't free labor a good thing?

Xing Baohua felt that the first-generation learning machine was a piece of junk.

Xing Baohua only wanted to use it to make a quick buck.

If we have more money, we can upgrade this batch of junk later.

At least a Chinese character library needs to be added later. It's still pretty good for practicing typing.

This involves the Chinese character card.

Xing Baohua didn't have time to work on this. Now that the Chinese character database is out, he'll make an English-Chinese dictionary. That would be perfect for learning English; only then could it be called a true learning machine.

But that's a matter for later; we need to be ethical businessmen. We'll have to make up for these things later. He's short on cash right now, so he cut a lot of features to save costs.

After shooting this part, the photographer switched equipment to shoot a portrait advertisement.

There was plenty of film and batteries, so let's get started. People took turns snapping away, a flurry of shots.

Seeing that they were busy, Xing Baohua went out to buy some snacks to go with the drinks and three bottles of Erguotou (a type of Chinese liquor).

We agreed to have a drink with the two Russian girls. Okay, let's have a drink then. Xing Baohua hasn't had any alcohol lately and is feeling a bit craving it.

It didn't end until after 11 p.m.

Xing Baohua led the group back. The two female table tennis players also had to report that they would be back that evening.

Xing Baohua had just finished showering when she heard a knock on the door. She got dressed and opened the door, only to see two female table tennis players sneaking in.

The Sino-Soviet Friendship Drinking Contest begins.

It wasn't really a drinking contest; each person only drank one bottle, which wasn't much.

Just blow into the bottle.

Perhaps these two had never tasted domestic baijiu before, or perhaps the aroma of the liquor wasn't to their liking; in any case, after downing a third of it, both female table tennis players had slightly swollen tongues.

Xing Baohua felt a bit contemptuous. This is all the alcohol he can drink? And he claims to be a heavy drinker? And he's addicted to alcohol?

If this were served at most drinking parties in China, it would be a joke.

The two of them barely drank half a bottle before they started to get a little crazy. Xing Baohua looked out the window and thankfully it was closed because of the weather.

Besides, this is a cadre's room, and also a guesthouse in District J. This room has been specially soundproofed.

He sang loudly and boisterously; he really showed his spirit.

Xing Baohua drank a bottle and was a little tipsy. He acted like he was making a ruckus at a karaoke bar, laughing and joking around.

Alcohol can warm the body, and after half a bottle of Erguotou, Jiwa was sweating all over his body and face.

Well, he took off his jacket, revealing himself to be wearing only a tight-fitting vest. He didn't even pay attention to Xing Baohua, the man.

Xing Baohua recalled watching a foreign version of "A Bite of China," which mentioned that in many countries, all they eat is sausage.

Red sausage, white sausage, black sausage, the only thing that can be varied is to put it in a bun to make a hot dog and spray some white salad dressing on it.

Drinking too much alcohol can indeed easily lead to trouble. Xing Baohua unexpectedly ended up eating two Western-style meals.

They were all young and had big appetites, which resulted in Xing Baohua not having enough salad dressing.

Foreign food looks delicious, but only those who have tried it know. Sometimes it's really awful.

Xing Baohua felt this deeply. He couldn't help but complain, why call them "Russians"?

When leg hair grows long, I shave it like a beard. It looks clean, but some hair roots are still hard like stubble.

Especially when pushing, you'll either get poked in the shoulder or both arms, instantly reducing your fighting ability.

All the fun and romance has been ruined.

Foreign food has its thorns, it's not good. This kind of thing can't be shared or even given a bad review. It just festers in my heart.

Fortunately, there are many ways to eat it. Xing Baohua even thought about whether he should wear a bulletproof vest or an arm guard next time.

Oh well, this is just one chance to eat Western food; I won't have the chance to again.

Should I buy a razor tomorrow?

Women from Russia shouldn't be underestimated, especially after they've had a few drinks—they're incredibly fierce. It's like a two-on-one fight, the kind of game that rages on in the second half.

Xing Baohua had intended to let the two of them rest, but they were wide awake. Xing Baohua thought to herself, "Anyone who says this kind of foreign stuff is exciting is going to get back at me. Even the donkeys in the production team aren't this exhausted."

After finally finishing their meal, Xing Baohua quickly urged them to go back and rest. They couldn't stay overnight; if anyone saw them, their trip would be over.

Before leaving, Kiva said to Xing Baohua, "You are stronger than any Caucasian man."

"Caucasian? A dog? Is that even a fair comparison?" Xing Baohua thought to himself as he closed the door and walked back, leaning against the wall.

I thought I'd pull off a series of impressive moves, but I ended up being a complete disaster.

It wasn't that we weren't strong enough, but rather that the opponent was too powerful. No wonder they're from a fighting nation.
