“At school, the task of raising the national flag is given to the older students, which is not impressive at all.”
"Of course, this is the national team! Only the most outstanding talents are handed over to the country." Lin Yanwan patted her sister's head and said with a smile.
The younger sister-in-law nodded thoughtfully, then exclaimed loudly, "When I'm in higher grades, I want to be a flag bearer too!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xia and Lin Yanwan exchanged a smile, indicating that the patriotic education trip had been very successful.
Plant a seed in your heart from a young age, so that you can become a better person who is useful to the country, society and the people in the future.
When they got home, it was already past 6 o'clock. They found that the adults had all gotten up. Ji Wanqiu asked them where they had gone so early in the morning. Jiang Xia said that he had taken Xiaoman to Tiananmen Square to watch the flag-raising ceremony. His mother-in-law couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.
This is a good thing.
After breakfast, Jiang Xia took his family to climb the Great Wall as planned. Considering that it had been very hot in the past few days, he had bought a lot of sun protection products in advance in the trunk, so they could visit the Great Wall in the morning and the Forbidden City in the afternoon.
The family set off from the Badaling Great Wall, and were in high spirits as they looked at the magnificent scenery inside and outside the Great Wall.
Jiang Xia and Lin Yanwan had visited once before and taken many photos. Now, they were simply spending time with their family and taking photos to preserve these happy memories.
Climbing to the highest viewing platform, overlooking the majestic and precipitous scenery below, a landscape combining beauty and verdant greenery, one can't help but feel a surge of emotion as one imagines how the ancients used this natural barrier to keep enemies out of the pass.
As the sun rose higher and its rays grew increasingly intense, the family, having finished their sightseeing, took the cable car back.
We had lunch at the commercial pedestrian street in the Badaling Great Wall scenic area, then went back and took a two-hour nap. In the afternoon, we continued to visit the Forbidden City with our family.
The next day, we visited the Temple of Heaven and the Summer Palace. As the premier classical imperial gardens in China, the natural scenery of lakes and mountains is full of poetic and picturesque charm. The pavilions, towers, corridors, and bridges all showcase the elegance and beauty of classical gardens.
After two days of travel, Xiaoman's eyes were truly opened.
Xia Shanshan was no exception. As a Chinese language teacher, she had long yearned for these famous historical sites. Whenever she visited a place, she could easily recite various poems. Presumably, when she returned to school this summer, she would be even more at ease when telling her students about these experiences.
Two days later, Jiang Xia was forced back to work by Jiang Wende, while Lin Yanwan was more relaxed. Her current task was to provide voiceovers for Pokémon and Slam Dunk, and to prepare some background music for the Tom and Jerry movie.
With free time, she can stay home and spend time with her parents, allowing Jiang Xia to focus her energy on the company.
"Didn't I tell you to spend more time at home with them? Why are you here at work?" Li Weiya walked into Jiang Xia's office and couldn't help but laugh.
"My dad said I didn't need to come with him, and sent me back home," Jiang Xia said helplessly, putting down the report in her hand.
Li Weiya smiled slightly: "Haha, I guessed so. Your dad is a very straightforward person. He says what's on his mind. He's just afraid of affecting your work."
"I know." Jiang Xia chuckled. "Let's not talk about that. Godmother, what did you want to see me about?"
"The Animation Golden Dragon Awards are coming this year, but the venue has been chosen to be Shanghai. Last year's Tom and Jerry: The Year of the Rabbit, as well as Slam Dunk and the Tom and Jerry animated series, were all nominated. If nothing unexpected happens, there will be a lot of Golden Dragon Awards."
She smiled and asked, "Why don't you go?"
Jiang Xia shook his head: "Forget it, I won't go. Let A-Ming go. He's the animation director for Tom and Jerry now, so it'll be a good opportunity for him to shine on screen and win back the other awards as well."
Li Weiya was stunned for a moment, not expecting Jiang Xia to say that.
After all, this is a great opportunity to boost one's personal reputation. In any case, the Golden Dragon Award is the highest award in the animation industry.
"Aren't you going?"
"I can't always be the one in the limelight. It's good to let Ah Ming go. He might attend various events more often in the future, broaden his horizons, and won't be nervous on important occasions."
"Xia, I want to thank you on behalf of Amin. I'll talk to him about this in a bit and tell him to be prepared." Li Weiya's eyes showed gratitude.
“Godmother, we’re family. Ah Ming and I are brothers. You don’t need to be so polite with me. I’m happy for him that he’s doing so well. Let me put it this way, if he couldn’t lead Tom and Jerry to keep going, I wouldn’t have let him attend the Golden Dragon Award ceremony. He deserves all of this.”
"I see."
Li Weiya nodded slightly. Although she said that, she knew very well that her son Wang Ming's current achievements in the animation industry were entirely due to Jiang Xia's guidance.
From the very beginning, they forcibly brought him to the Tom and Jerry project, and later taught him how to draw storyboards step by step, which lasted for more than half a year, and that's how Wang Ming became who he is today.
The same is true for her. Her life took a major turn from the moment she decided to come to the capital to help him. Everything that she and her son have now can be said to be given to them by Jiang Xia.
Watching Li Weiya leave, Jiang Xia smiled calmly. With his current fame, he didn't need these things to enhance himself. Qitian Animation was now unrivaled in the domestic animation market, and it could be said that every work was created by him.
Despite being a newcomer to the director's career, he has repeatedly created animated blockbusters, making him one of the brightest stars in the animation industry.
