Chapter 177 The Chosen Family Reached a Unified Opinion
When Qi Er said these words, the skinny monkey finally got up and limped to Qi Er's side.
"Little boy, do you want to make a movie with uncle? It's fun." He gave what he thought was the friendliest smile.
Yu Chi held the small conch, glanced at him, and quickly looked away.
"Yes! That's the look the kitten had when it first saw its uncle!" Qi Er couldn't help but clap his hands and laugh. "It's just right. I finally found the perfect kitten in my mind."
When Skinny Monkey heard this, he knew that he finally had hope for a start date, so he continued to help coax Xiaobao.
"Little boy, do you want everyone in the country to know your name?" He was like a human trafficker who used candy to coax a child, "Just promise uncle, and your family will see your face in the cinema in the future, and they will be proud of you."
Yu Chi knew from the little conch that he had no ill intentions, but he still shook his head and uttered a few words: "Long, don't want to."
Xiao Hailuo said that filming a movie is a very long process and he would have to stay in Beijing for a very long time, and he would not be able to see his family for a long time.
Qi Er was not discouraged after being rejected. He felt that his current dress and appearance were indeed not very reliable. He planned to visit again another day and ask about Yu Chi's address.
Zhou Yuesheng did not answer directly, but looked at Yu Zhile.
Based on his understanding of Chi, he thought Qi Er still had a good chance. As a childhood friend, although he hoped that Qi Er could get what he wanted, he still had to seek the consent of those around him first.
Yu Zhile was thinking about Yu Chi's reaction and did not respond immediately.
"Brother Zhou." Qi Er took a big step forward anxiously.
At that time, Hu Shuang happened to stroll into this floor after taking a rest. When he saw this scene, he thought they were in trouble and rushed forward to block Yu Chi.
"What do you want to do?" She glared at Qi Er.
"Xiao Shuang, they are not bad people." Yu Zhile came back to his senses and patted her shoulder gently, "Take Xiao Bao to the first floor for a look. We have something to discuss."
Hu Shuang nodded, and Yu Chi followed her downstairs obediently.
Qi Er looked at Yu Chi with a loving face as he left. He did not withdraw his gaze until his figure completely disappeared on the second floor. He then looked at Zhou Yuesheng eagerly.
Yu Zhile smiled at him politely and pulled Zhou Yuesheng aside.
"If Xiaobao doesn't agree to act in the movie in the end, what are the chances that Haiyu brand will appear in his movie?" she asked directly.
Zhou Yuesheng knew his childhood friend's personality and responded, "If Xiaobao doesn't agree, he won't start filming, but he will be happy to introduce you to other directors."
Yu Zhile thought about it and decided to tell Qi Er the address and introduced himself.
"Thank you, Comrade Yu." Qi Er immediately smiled.
Zhou Yuesheng added silently: "This is my girlfriend."
However, Qi Er was so overwhelmed with joy that he could not listen to anything else. He walked out muttering to himself while thinking of ways to persuade Yu Chi.
Seeing that Qi Er had entered an immersed state, Shouhou was afraid that if he was a step slower, Qi Er would roll down the stairs, so he hurriedly said goodbye to Yu Zhile and the others.
"Don't look, everyone has left." Yu Zhile poked Zhou Yuesheng's arm, trying not to laugh.
Zhou Yuesheng said nothing and held her wrist.
The two met up with Hu Shuang and Yu Chi on the first floor and went to a nearby state-owned restaurant. They agreed to have shabu-shabu there for lunch and then go to some famous places after lunch.
When we arrived at the state-owned hotel, Sheng Lanyue, who had just left alone, was already sitting in the lobby waiting. He held the camera and wiped it carefully, and there were some palm-sized brown paper packages on the table in front of him.
"Lan Yue." Yu Zhile shouted.
Sheng Lanyue looked up, smiled, and waved to Yu Chi.
He had just gone to borrow a camera, and on the way back he bought some local snacks. When he passed by a movie theater, he exchanged his ticket for a movie brochure for Yu Chi.
The album is printed in black and white, not thick, but rich in content. The booklet lists in detail the movies released in the past six months, not only introducing the synopsis and creative team of the movies, but also printed the promotional posters of each movie.
Yu Chi was used to flipping through the catalogue in order. The first thing that caught his eye was a poster of two people. One of the protagonists was about his age and looked at the camera timidly.
He stared at it for a while, then held the conch again and remained motionless.
"This movie is very popular recently. I heard from the ticket seller that it is very touching." Sheng Lanyue noticed his pause, "Xiaobao, do you want to watch it? There are only two shows left tonight."
Yu Chi shook his head and continued to look through the pages, never letting go of the little conch.
Yu Zhile and Zhou Yuesheng looked at each other before whispering to him and Hu Shuang what had just happened.
Hu Shuang let out a small exclamation, but Sheng Lanyue was not surprised.
They quickly changed the topic and chatted for a while about what had happened to each of them in the past few months.
Yu Zhile’s schedule for the next few days is very full, and he also wants to take some time to conduct field investigations in the surrounding areas.
"I said before that I would take a leave to take you out to play, but I didn't expect that I couldn't even make an appointment with anyone during my vacation." Sheng Lanyue chuckled and joked, "I'm afraid it will be even more difficult to make an appointment when you come to Beijing again."
Yu Zhile smiled and said, "Same here."
While they were joking with each other, Yu Yue and Chen Zhao also arrived at the hotel entrance, each with arms full of things.
The difference is that Yu Yue held large books as thick as bricks, while the latter held simple reading materials such as movie posters, brochures and picture books.
"Hey, those two people are very famous in Beijing. This is a rare opportunity. Do you need to consider it for so long?" Chen Zhao looked puzzled.
Yu Yue glanced at Yu Zhile and the others and said, "Sister and the others have arrived. We'll talk about this in two days. Remember our agreement."
Chen Zhao said "oh" and walked quickly to Yu Chi. He was about to share the picture book he had found with him, but his attention was attracted by the book he was reading first, and he immediately immersed himself in reading with him.
"Who did you meet in the bookstore?" Yu Zhile asked with a smile.
She vaguely heard the conversation between the two and noticed the old notebook mixed in with the large books.
Yu Yue thought for a moment and replied, "The two teachers said that I had a good impression of you and gave me a study notebook."
Seeing that he didn't want to say more, Yu Zhile didn't ask any more questions and let him sit down and have some snacks.
Yu Yue hesitated and finally did not speak again.
As the agreed time approached, others came with large and small bags, but Ye Liang was the only one with empty hands.
"What's wrong with you?" Chen Zhao stared at his red eyes. "Someone bullied you? Did you get blocked in an alley and lost in a duel?"
Ye Liang sniffed and ignored the first question. He patted his chest and said, "Looking at the entire Jing City, there are no more than three people who can beat me in a one-on-one fight."
"Well, Wei Er was sitting opposite you." Hu Shuang suddenly said, "So you cried while watching the movie."
Everyone was amused by her, but Ye Liang refused to admit it and just smiled and scratched his head.
They asked for a large private room, ordered all the meat in the store at once, and also asked for several hot dishes and snacks.
It was lunchtime and there were many customers in the restaurant, so the dishes were served slowly. The waiter first brought a few bowls of condiments and asked them to prepare the dipping sauce for the meat themselves.
Zhou Yuesheng and Ye Liang prepared a small bowl each according to the different tastes of the locals, and asked everyone to try and choose, and then helped to prepare the dipping sauce according to everyone's preferences.
While the others were chatting about their experiences shopping in the department store, Yu Zhile suddenly felt the hem of his clothes was heavy. He looked down and found that it was Yu Chi who was pulling on it.
"Xiaobao, what's wrong?" she asked softly.
Yu Chi said he wanted to drink hot water, so she took him out of the box, but she was stopped by him after only two steps.
"Sister, do you want me to make a movie?" Yu Chi looked up at her.
Facing the overly mature younger brother, Yu Zhile squatted down and pinched the soft flesh on his face, and said with a smile: "Oh, how come the little housekeeper has taught our little treasure to be more and more mature. As long as it doesn't hurt others, children should do what they like. There is no need to think so much."
"What I like to do is to make my sister happy." Yu Chi said seriously.
Yu Zhile's heart softened, she ruffled his hair and said, "If Xiaobao is happy, I will be happy too."
Yu Chi threw himself into her arms and rubbed her neck affectionately. Neither the siblings noticed that the door opened and closed behind them.
At this time, several waiters appeared at the stairs with trays and walked towards them. Yu Zhile helped open the door.
Soon, the table was filled with raw meat, hot dishes and snacks.
The neatly arranged meat slices are bright red in color and delicate in texture. The Aiwowowo and Donkey Rolling platters are sweet and tempting, while the freshly mixed tripe exudes the mellow aroma of the sauce.
Everyone tried the hot dishes first. The deliciousness of the fried tripe left a lasting impression on everyone, but their attention was soon attracted to the copper pot.
"Here comes the pot. Be careful not to get burned." The cook brought a steaming copper pot with thick gloves and placed it in the middle of the table skillfully. "Please enjoy your meal."
The fire was burning brightly, and the soup in the pot soon began to boil, emitting white hot steam.
The mutton rolled in the boiling water and immediately turned from red to gray. It rolled in the sesame sauce bowl and was put into their mouths in just a few seconds.
"The meat is really good, tender and juicy." Someone said.
The aroma of food filled the house with the steam, and everyone ate and chatted, the scene was lively and warm.
After the meal, the group went to visit tourist attractions. After Sheng Lanyue finished using three rolls of film, they stopped to rest and found another restaurant to eat roast duck.
The roast duck is sliced and served with side dishes. The oily roast duck skin shines under the light.
A thin dough wraps duck slices dipped in sweet noodle sauce, shredded green onions and cucumber strips. The flavors of the various ingredients complement each other, and the taste is rich and layered, which greatly satisfies everyone's taste buds.
After eating and drinking, the group set off back to the military area.
It was already eight o'clock in the evening when they arrived. Hu Shuang and Lan Yuanyuan returned to Wen Wanbai's residence and separated from everyone at the fork in the road.
Chen Hua seldom lives here, and Chen Zhao is the one who hates being lonely the most, so he happily follows the group to stay overnight at Yu's house.
The lights were on in the Li family's yard. Hearing the noise of them returning home, Political Commissar Li hurriedly wrapped himself in clothes and came out to look for Yu Haiguang.
The two partners chatted briefly and then went back home.
Yu Chi was so tired that he fell asleep, and Zhou Yuesheng carried him back to the house.
Yu Zhile talked about his encounter with Qi Er during the day in the living room, and everyone had different reactions.
"This is such a coincidence that we meet again in such a big city like Beijing." Zhang Wenxin was surprised at first, but soon recalled his thoughts from a few days ago. After much hesitation, he asked, "Is Xiaobao willing? If he is not willing, will Qi Er still be willing to discuss cooperation with us? I think this is a good opportunity."
Chen Zhao didn't think too much about it and said with a smile: "If it is really filmed, we will have the opportunity to see Xiaobao's face in the movie brochure and may even hear his name on the radio."
"Xiaobao is still young, and being famous may not be a good thing for him." Yu Haiguang expressed his opinion. Yu Wanqin hummed and put forward her own idea: "But it's not a bad thing to have more experience. If Qi Er can make Xiaobao change his mind, then let him shoot, and I will stay in Jingshi to accompany him."
As soon as she finished speaking, everyone looked at Yu Yue.
Yu Yue was stunned for a few seconds and said, "As long as Xiaobao likes it."
In this way, the family reached a preliminary consensus on this matter - not to interfere with Xiaobao's choice.
"Qi Er will come over in the next few days. We're not at home during the day, so we probably have to leave him a message." Yu Zhile then remembered that he had forgotten to tell the other party about their schedule for the next few days.
Yu Haiguang sighed: "No need, plans can't keep up with changes."
His promotion notice came out this afternoon and quickly spread throughout the family compound. Many people wanted to come to congratulate him, but were turned away by the closed gate.
In the next few days, the Yu family courtyard will not be deserted. He and Yu Wanqin are destined to not be able to avoid this social event and can only stay at home.
"It doesn't matter. There will be plenty of opportunities to travel in the future." Yu Zhile immediately changed his plan. "We can use these few days to conduct field trips around the area, which will help us improve the content of the plan."
Zhang Wenxin and Yu Chuyue had no objection to this.
The three of them agreed on a time, and Yu Zhile followed Zhou Yuesheng away under their teasing gazes, and went straight into the study as soon as he got home.
Not only does she have to record today's market research results, she also has to arrange a field investigation plan, and she also has to make preparations for film collaborations.
She sat there for more than two hours until Zhou Yuesheng knocked on the door and she put down her pen.
"Are you tired?" Zhou Yuesheng put the water cup on the table and helped her massage her shoulders and neck. "You still have to go to many places tomorrow, so go to bed early."
Yu Zhile's tense muscles gradually relaxed, and after drinking a few sips of warm water, he felt more relaxed both physically and mentally.
"Aren't you too tired after following us for two days?" She glanced behind her.
Zhou Yuesheng paused and said, "You will know later."
"I want to know now, isn't it okay? Captain Zhou." Yu Zhile spoke in a hoarse voice.
Zhou Yuesheng pinched her earlobe, but was interrupted before he could say anything.
"I'm going to take a shower. Please help me pack my things." Yu Zhile chuckled, said this and ran away.
After turning off the lights, she still paid the price for this sentence, but also left several scratches and a clear teeth mark on Zhou Yuesheng's arm.
The next morning, Yu Zhile found that he had underestimated Qi Er's persistence, so he was still groggy when Zhou Yuesheng woke him up.
Before the slogans in the training area were sounded, he and Shouhou knocked on Xiaojia's door with gifts.
Looking at the two people who had changed overnight, Yu Zhile was stunned for a long time, and then he sighed: "You two didn't sleep all night."
