December 31, 2006.
The last day of the Gregorian calendar year 2006.
That night, the bungalow where the crew lived was brightly lit and filled with laughter.
A group of young people put down their jobs, abandoned their identities, and celebrated their new home and the New Year here.
Jiang Qingyue and Gu Haitao were also sitting among them. The fat white guy Tang Yuxuan also shamelessly wanted to join the crowd, but Liu Xiaoyu looked at his head with disdain and he left, knowing that he was bald.
Including Huo Qianli, eleven young people gathered around the table, on which were placed braised meats and dishes, melon seeds and peanuts, and cans of beer that the crew had specially bought in town today.
Jiang Qingyue and Gu Haitao invited them, but Liu Xiaoyu forced Huo Qianli to share a portion to vent her hatred.
They were all free-spirited young people, but they had all been immersed in the working environment for quite some time and had already subconsciously set rules for their behavior in their hearts. Therefore, everyone's eyes turned to Liu Xiaoyu and Huo Qianli.
Huo Qianli smiled and said, "Sister Xiaoyu, please speak!"
Liu Xiaoyu ignored him, looked at everyone, raised the beer can, "Happy New Year, drink!"
Direct and crisp!
Everyone stood up, raised their beer cans and clinked them together, "Happy New Year!"
Then we eat the food and continue drinking, you toast me and I toast you.
As the jars were emptied and thrown aside, everyone's mentality gradually relaxed, and all the rules and constraints in their hearts were gone.
"Hiccup!"
Zhang Yang burped, stood up, and looked at Jiang Qingyue, "Miss Jiang, I toast you a glass."
As soon as these words came out, the originally noisy room suddenly became quiet.
Except for Jiang Qingyue herself, everyone present knew that Zhang Yang had once coveted Jiang Qingyue.
Liu Xiaoyu, who was sitting opposite Zhang Yang, looked at him warningly.
A boy sitting next to Zhang Yang also kicked Zhang Yang several times.
Zhang Yang didn't care at all. He smiled at Jiang Qingyue who stood up and said, "It's a great pleasure to meet a beautiful girl like Miss Jiang in a place like Hushan Village. It's a pity that she has someone else. Otherwise, I would have pursued love. Since it's impossible, I wish you happiness!"
Phew~
Liu Xiaoyu and others secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Jiang Qingyue clinked glasses with Zhang Yang quickly, took a sip and sat down.
Once her worries were gone, Liu Xiaoyu also teased Jiang Qingyue, pretending to be surprised and said, "Huh? Qingyue, why are you so upset all of a sudden? Weren't you fine just now?"
Jiang Qingyue took a deep breath and picked up the wine jar, "I'm fine now, come on, Sister Xiaoyu, I toast to you!"
The magnanimous Jiang Qingyue did not act like a shy little girl. Instead, she took the initiative and Liu Xiaoyu's intention to laugh at her was dashed.
Huo Qianli chuckled and looked at Zhang Yang. This buddy is pretty good. Even when he has no hope, he still remembers to give me an assist. He is free and easy, and he is very capable!
So he smiled and toasted Zhang Yang, but this toast made Jiang Qingyue's ears turn red.
Most of the plates on the table were gone, and there wasn't much left. Gu Haitao whispered to Huo Qianli, "Brother Qianli, do you think the food is not enough? I haven't even eaten much."
Huo Qianli rolled his eyes and said, "Watch me."
He cleared his throat and said loudly: "Hey everyone, which one do you think is better, Jincheng or Yuzhou?"
"Need I say that? Jincheng is definitely better! The environment is good, the climate is good, and the food is more exquisite than Yuzhou..."
"No, I think Yuzhou is better. From the perspective of the country's positioning, Yuzhou is the center of the southwest. The Southwest Bureau of the several major local bureaus was also in Yuzhou..."
Once a topic is thrown out, it is like pouring bait into a pond. Everyone will take up the topic and start chatting enthusiastically.
Huo Qianli nudged Gu Haitao, who was listening with great interest, with his elbow and pointed at the dishes on the table.
Gu Haitao was stunned for a moment, Huo Qianli smiled and said: "When you have a meal with a group of educated people or people who think they are educated, as long as you bring up a suitable topic, the whole table of food is yours."
Gu Haitao suddenly realized, gave Huo Qianli a thumbs up, and started eating voraciously.
Huo Qianli turned his head to look at Jiang Qingyue and winked at her. Jiang Qingyue's puzzled eyes moved from him and Gu Haitao to the crew members who put down their chopsticks and chatted animatedly. Suddenly she chuckled and looked at Huo Qianli with a little speechlessness.
This smile is charming and beautiful, and this glance is full of charm.
......
In fact, Huo Qianli didn't need to deliberately guide them. Once there was more wine, the topics at the party naturally began to drift to the sky along with people's consciousness, becoming more and more mysterious.
After drinking half a pound of wine, as long as they are not drunk, the villagers of Hushan Village dare to talk about the world situation.
At this moment in the room, everyone's topic has shifted from the dispute between Jincheng and Yuzhou to the overall social development.
After all, they all work for a TV station, so they can talk about things like the national orientation of regional competition, the national will reflected in the various supporting policies for migrant workers after they move to cities, the growing gap between urban and rural areas, the gradual formation of disparity and solidification between social classes, etc. Gu Haitao, who had just eaten his fill, was stunned by what he heard.
Huo Qianli listened with great interest and was able to grasp some useful knowledge from it.
As we chatted, somehow the topic was brought back to the group.
They talked about the future, the prospects of the documentary about Hushan Village, and then talked about their and Huo Qianli's future development.
They talked a lot and, under the influence of alcohol, pursued their dreams of getting promoted, getting a raise, and reaching the peak of their lives.
