[Chapter 405 Chapter 405 Requesting permission to show a movie]
Time flies, and several months have passed in the blink of an eye.
That morning, just as Shen Yuyao was about to go out to class, she received a call from Cheng Liyan.
Cheng Liyan said Director Yan called him.
"Ah? Is that movie coming out soon?"
"Yes. Director Yan said that in order to celebrate the National Day, the movie is scheduled to be released on September 25th, and the release period is expected to be half a month. At that time, he will send movie tickets to our company and invite our whole family to watch the movie."
"It's so fast!" Shen Yuyao exclaimed.
She felt like it was just yesterday that her three children were participating in the filming of the movie, yet half a year has passed in the blink of an eye.
"It's quite fast." Cheng Liyan felt the same way.
"Write a letter to your family and tell them about this. Ask Mingyue to come over. Director Yan said that this time we will be given tickets to the premiere, and they will give us the best seats."
"Okay, I'll write back now. Mingyue will be so happy when she finds out!"
As soon as Shen Yuyao got home from class, she wrote a letter to her mother, telling her that the movie was about to be released.
Before that, she had printed out an extra copy of all the photos Joan had taken of the children filming movies and playing and sent them back home.
The family passed it around and watched it countless times, wishing they knew every detail of the film's making.
But the more this happened, the more curious and eager everyone became about the film shot by the children.
The consequence of this was that the idea of showing a movie that the Third Young Master’s wife, Zhong Lingyu, had mentioned earlier was brought up again.
This time it was the third son, Shen Junlin.
Although Shen Junlin is the youngest of the three sons, he is the most focused one among the three sons of the Shen family.
The agricultural and forestry books that my sister sent me mentioned some knowledge on increasing grain production.
This young man from a noble family put aside his beloved arts of music, chess, calligraphy and painting and, regardless of his status, stayed in the imperial manor for a total of ten years!
There, he worked in the fields with the old farmers, asking questions without hesitation and working diligently.
He managed to research and develop high-quality crops, doubling Wushuang Country's total grain output in a short period of time!
Such tenacity and spirit of research were admired by not only outsiders but also his father, Prime Minister Shen.
He secretly told his wife several times that he felt his third son was most like him.
Now, Prime Minister Shen's favorite son ran to his study and talked to him again about wanting to watch a movie.
It was no longer appropriate for Prime Minister Shen to try to escape.
Cheng Liyan had mentioned this matter before when he was corresponding with his father-in-law.
Tell him that if he really wants to watch the movie, it is feasible from an operational perspective.
Because now in China, there are already relatively small generators and movie projectors.
Both together can be carried on a bicycle.
Therefore, if your family really wants to watch it, you can find a way to borrow a set of equipment and return it after watching.
But one thing is that the noise caused by showing a movie is quite loud.
If it is set off outdoors, people from miles around can probably hear it and even see it late at night.
If you want to release it, this must be considered.
Otherwise it will be difficult to end up like this.
Prime Minister Shen has been cautious all his life.
My first reaction after seeing the letter from my son-in-law was that it is better to have less trouble than more.
Even though he knew his family wanted to see it, he still chose to refuse.
And now that the youngest son has come over, Prime Minister Shen knows that he must have been nominated by his family.
Seeing that the whole family was so looking forward to it, and knowing that his granddaughter and grandson would also be in the movie this time, Prime Minister Shen hesitated.
Seeing that his father was thinking, Shen Junlin stepped forward and said to him, "Father, I think you don't need to think too much.
Considering the importance the emperor holds our family in, it's just showing a movie and there shouldn't be any serious consequences.
Besides, Xiaoyi and Nanxi have been visiting your home frequently over the years. Do you think the emperor really doesn't know?"
Of course, Prime Minister Shen knew that his family's every move was under the emperor's nose.
The emperor also knew the whereabouts of his grandson and granddaughter very well.
But Prime Minister Shen knew very well that the emperor was happy to see this happen.
After all, he also hoped to have more interactions with the goddess.
In order to get more blessings.
The emperor was happy that the goddess was willing to let her children interact with their grandparents.
This can be seen from the fact that he would give more children's supplies as rewards every year during the festival.
But this is different when it comes to showing movies!
The noise from the movie was too loud.
Moreover, Prime Minister Shen had also heard from his wife that the movie would also show the war scenes on his daughter's side, and there would be guns and cannons that Wushuang Country did not have.
If these things were seen by the emperor, and he asked his daughter to get some for him, wouldn't that cause trouble for Yuyao and Liyan?
Thinking of this, Prime Minister Shen hesitated again.
"Don't we say you can choose from these movies? Let's tell my brother-in-law not to choose the one with guns and cannons, but to choose the one starring Mingyue and the others.
Mingyue said they just visited the capital and took a boat ride. There is definitely no problem with such a film. "
Knowing that his father was wavering, Shen Junlin launched his strongest offensive until he was completely convinced.
Although Prime Minister Shen agreed, he proposed that he should go to the palace to talk to the emperor about this matter in advance.
It is better to tell him in advance than to let the emperor find out later.
When looking at it this way, the family won’t feel uneasy.
The next morning, Prime Minister Shen handed in his card to enter the palace.
This was the first time that Prime Minister Shen took the initiative to hand over a sign after retiring, so the emperor naturally summoned him immediately.
Prime Minister Shen did not hide it and told them about the interactions between their family and their daughter over the years.
Of course, the emperor knows this.
Afterwards, Prime Minister Shen told the emperor that after his second son, Shen Junshan, was taken away by his daughter to learn martial arts, his little granddaughter was also taken away by her aunt to play for a few days some time ago.
Then there, the little granddaughter, along with her grandson and granddaughter, were noticed by the immortal who was responsible for recording images of the heavenly palace and was asked to participate in the filming of a movie.
Now his daughter has appeared in his dream and told him that he could send the movie in which her three children had participated back for her family to watch.
He said that the movie records the heaven where his daughter lives, and watching it can help ease his longing for her.
Prime Minister Shen said that he dared not hide such a big thing from the emperor, so he came here specially to report it.
There may be some noise at home in a couple of days, but he will try his best to keep the noise to a minimum so as not to disturb the people.
Prime Minister Shen was planning to say a few more words, but when the emperor heard this, he waved his hand and said, "No need to bother. Aren't you afraid of disturbing the people?
Then bring the movie to the palace to show it.
There is plenty of empty space here, so we can put it there without disturbing the people."
As for the other members of the Shen family, the emperor said that he could give a special decree to allow the Shen family to enter the palace to watch together!
