Receiving such a task is a form of recognition and affirmation.
Huo Yingjie had long anticipated this day, so he was not surprised.
"Don't worry about things at home," Huo Zhegan said. "Your grandfather and I are here for important matters, and your grandmother, aunt, and sister-in-law will help with daily life. So go ahead and do your best."
"Thank you, Uncle and Grandfather," Huo Yingjie said. This was the reason he came before leaving.
Grandpa Huo smiled and said, "Go ahead. Yingjie is very capable. The big boss has praised you more than once. Once you're in the project team, don't stand out, but don't be too weak either. Just do your assigned tasks well."
“Yes, Grandfather,” Huo Yingjie said. He could have the final say at the Materials Research Institute, but he had to keep a low profile in front of other experts.
Seeing that his father and nephew had finished discussing business, Huo Zhe chuckled dryly and said, "Now Yingjun has gone to the Soviet Union, and now Yingjie is going to a military base. Now there are only the old and the young left at home, and no one is idle."
"Haha," Old Master Huo laughed, "They are all talented! I have done right by the Huo family patriarch."
During the subsequent casual conversation, the three chatted amiably and seemed to be having a great time.
At the same time, Huo Zhegan, the old man, also told Huo Yingjie some political matters.
Huo Yingjie understood the general direction but not the details, so he listened very carefully.
As the day for Huo Yingjie's departure approached, He Tiantian felt somewhat down.
My husband has left, and I don't know when he will return.
However, I have to go.
He Tiantian packed Huo Yingjie's luggage, including clothes for all four seasons. She prepared two large suitcases filled with Huo Yingjie's everyday clothes.
He Tiantian and Lu Wanxia prepared a table full of dishes and brought their three children to see Huo Yingjie off.
"Dad, you're going on a business trip. Let's have juice instead of alcohol to wish you a successful trip and a speedy return," He Tiantian said with a smile. This kind of ritual will leave a beautiful memory for the child.
The children were surprised to hear that their father was going on a business trip.
In their memory, when their mother went to compete and was away from home for ten days or half a month, their father was always by their side.
"Dad, where are you going?" Huo Ruimin asked. "When will you be back?"
Uh... I can't answer either of these questions...
"I'm just going on a business trip," Huo Yingjie said with a smile. "I'll be back as soon as possible. You all need to listen to your mother at home and not be naughty. When Dad comes back, he'll buy you delicious food and fun toys. What do you want?"
"Dad, I want a model ship made from bullet casings," Huo Ruihua said. He had long been envious of the eggshell model ships his classmates had.
Huo Ruimin thought for a moment and said, "Dad, I don't want anything, but I like all the gifts you give me."
Huo Xiaosan blinked, grinned mischievously, and said, "Dad, I want a new soccer ball."
"Didn't Mom just give you one?" Huo Ruimin glared at him, thinking, "This kid is so greedy."
"I want one to play with at home, but I also want one to take to school and play with my classmates," Huo Xiaosan whispered. "Anyway, they're all gifts, one or two, that's all my share!"
“Okay, Dad will grant all your requests,” Huo Yingjie said. “If Mom says that any of you who misbehaves won’t get a gift when I come back, then you won’t get one.”
"Yes, yes!" the children nodded repeatedly in agreement.
He Tiantian felt a pang of sadness, but she kept smiling, not wanting the child to be affected by the adults' sorrow at parting.
That evening, He Tiantian and Huo Yingjie poured out their hearts to each other and reluctantly parted ways.
Like a farewell feast, they tirelessly demand from each other, passion, madness.
The next morning, when He Tiantian woke up, Huo Yingjie had already left.
A little lazy, a little melancholy.
However, life must go on.
Training, managing the company, taking care of the children, visiting relatives and friends.
The children were not upset by Huo Yingjie's departure. In their minds, their father would be back in a few days anyway, and they did not realize that their father had gone on a major business trip.
A week after Huo Yingjie left, Tang Qian returned with the main creators of "Tai Chi Master" after a long journey.
The film grossed 73 million overseas in just two weeks in Hong Kong and Southeast Asia, and when combined with the 43 million grossed in mainland China, it surpassed 100 million.
After deducting channel fees, investment, production costs, and advertising expenses, the estimated revenue is 50 million.
This wasn't the company's first investment, but it was definitely the biggest investment and the highest-return film.
The company's conference room was filled with a joyful atmosphere.
Tang Qian arrived and gave each employee a red envelope.
Tang Qian had already paid the key members of the "Tai Chi Master" team before, but after the film's huge success, he gave each of them two red envelopes. Even the director who had left the company for a large state-owned film studio had his staff personally deliver the money to him.
Chen Jianfeng was very excited. He weighed the red envelope and said, "Shuang'er, it was the right decision for us to stay here. Look, the reward we received before was already very high, and now we have a red envelope too. Weigh it, it's quite a lot."
Qin Shuang was also very excited and nodded, saying, "Yes, you know my family's situation. My dad's salary is only enough for the family to live on. My grandparents have always been in poor health, and now I can finally take good care of them and help them improve their health."
"Yes, keep up the good work, I believe in you," Chen Jianfeng said. "By the way, with 'Tai Chi Master' doing so well, what should we film next?"
"We don't know yet!" Qin Shuang said. "But judging from President Tang's attitude, it seems like he's planning something big. Let's wait and see. If you have any good ideas, you can bring them up, and we can discuss them later."
“Okay, you should think about it too,” Chen Jianfeng said. “We can’t just follow the rules; we should think of more good ideas.”
"Okay, I've got it, Brother Jianfeng," Qin Shuang said with a smile, agreeing.
Even if the company coordinates things next time they make a movie, it will probably still be the two of them filming together. After all, they are both too young, and it would be difficult for them to work alone.
After Tang Qian and Qi Zhengmin returned, they met with several shareholders at He Tiantian's house.
He Tiantian had just finished training and picked up her child to go home when she saw several couples who were all her good friends.
What's rare is that Zhou Yuanchao also came, accompanying Wang Ying.
"Oh my, did you two plan to meet today?" He Tiantian was very happy to see her friend.
"Yes, we agreed to come together, and I wanted to give you a surprise," Tang Qian said. "Guess how much our box office revenue is in mainland China and overseas combined?"
So she came here to show off. He Tiantian couldn't help but chuckle.
