Chapter 1159: Fierce Fight! Master and Disciple 28 (Part 2)
Every year, the early morning of the festival has a repetitive scene, except that there are fewer people on the street who get drunk after a night of revelry. In most areas of the middle and lower floors, the temperature will reach zero degrees at night, and sleeping outside may freeze to death.
On a street in the middle floor, a man seemed to be waiting anxiously in the lobby on the first floor of a clinic.
The man kept smoking, looking anxious. At this time, a lot of people came to the street of the clinic.
"Lao Li, are you pregnant?"
The man looked at a lot of relatives and friends who came in surprise, and was a little surprised.
"Why are you here? It's my wife who gave birth, not you."
At this time, many people took out red envelopes and stuffed them into the man's hands. The man's name was Li Qin, a technician in this area. Last year, his wife finally got pregnant with a child. At 5 a.m., his wife had abdominal pain and rushed to the clinic.
Many people in this district have the surname Li. Although many people are not related by blood, gradually, under the leadership of a certain Li in the past, everyone has taken root in District 58. The surname Li here is more like a united clan, and many people understand the importance of unity. The reason is that Li is a big surname, and someone takes the lead. Everything in the district is relatively stable, and this district is also the only area in the middle level without criminal gangs.
In recent years, a large number of people with the surname Li have been attracted here, and this place has gradually become more like a clan area. Because the economy is stable, everyone lives a good life, and the price is also the most stable district in the middle level of the entire city.
"I have notified others."
A fat woman said, Li Qin smiled embarrassedly, accepted everyone's red envelopes, and kept thanking them. Although the money was not much, during festivals or when some families encountered major changes, all the people with the surname Li in the district would go over and compete for a red envelope, with more than dozens or hundreds of yuan, and less than a few yuan. The most important thing is the thought.
At this time, a man who looked like he had just gotten up from the bed ran over, hurriedly took out 500 yuan from his pocket, and looked around.
"Li Yin, do you have any extra red envelopes?"
As the man said this, a woman carrying a bag outside the crowd at the entrance of the clinic took out a red envelope from her pocket.
"Li Ling, you are still so reckless. You will embarrass your son who is a senior official in the future."
Li Ling walked over awkwardly and stuffed the red envelope into Li Qin's hand.
"Li Ling, giving so much is not appropriate, not appropriate."
Many people laughed at once. Everyone knew that Li Ling's son was now the most promising person in the entire 58th District. He was admitted to the Academy of God ten years ago and is now a special management officer. Not only does the family have a living allowance of 500 yuan per month, but the son's monthly salary is also very high.
"What is appropriate or not appropriate."
As Li Ling said this, a burst of crying came from the delivery room, and everyone applauded.
Li Qin waited with a smile, and soon a nurse brought out a baby who had just been born.
"It's a boy."
Li Ling immediately shook Li Qin's hand and kept saying congratulations. There was laughter all around. The neighbors with the surname Li and some people with other surnames also came over. The whole street was full of people at this time, comparable to a festival celebration. The district management officer also brought people to congratulate.
He naturally knew that Li Qin and Li Ling were playmates since childhood. The two had a special relationship, and Li Ling's son Li Xin would come to review the economic issues as usual this year.
"You need to register your name. Have you chosen a name?"
Li Ling asked, and Li Qin was embarrassed for a while. The neighbors and friends around him all talked about it.
Li Qin looked at the flag of District 58 flying across the street and thought of it for a while.
"Just call him Li Ang."
"Why call him Ang? It sounds weird."
The woman who just carried the bag, Li Yin, muttered, and many people laughed.
"I just hope my son can always stand up straight and be a man in the future."
Everyone on the street applauded, and the management officer came over with a gift.
"Congratulations."
At this time, an old woman in the crowd was supported by someone and walked out. Many people took the initiative to make way. The old woman was wearing colorful clothes and a headband inlaid with green gems on her head. She was the oldest elder in the local Li clan, 88 years old, and she knew some strange fortune-telling.
"Grandma Li, please take a look at this child."
The old woman nodded, walked over and learned the child's date of birth and name, looked at the child who was breastfeeding in the delivery room with a dull look, walked over and held her little hand and said.
"This child will be extraordinary in the future, and will be a rich and powerful person, but there is one thing she needs to remember, in the first half of her life, she should try to avoid a girl with a different surname. That girl is very beautiful, and she will hinder the fortune of this child. Once she meets her, the fate of this child will change, and it may even bring disaster to the entire Li family."
At one time, everyone present exclaimed, Grandma Li's calculations were very accurate, and she had predicted many people's affairs, including Li Ling's son Li Xin's affairs. When Li Ling's family of three came here in the morning, they were very poor.
Grandma Li said at the time that as long as the time was right, their son Li Xin would bring wealth and power to their family, and now Grandma Li's words have come true.
People around cheered. On such a day worth celebrating, this was the second wealthy and powerful person named Li in Grandma Li's fable.
Although the birth rate in the city is very low now, it is not so low that no children are born. On January 1st, hundreds of children were still born.
At 7:15 in the morning, accompanied by a burst of cheers, someone rushed to the street, and more and more people ran out of the house and ran towards the clinic hospital.
At 7 o'clock, everyone in the city received the message sent by Congress that the life vaccine has been fully developed and only needs to be vaccinated at the designated medical point nearby. It is necessary to keep an empty stomach. The vaccine will be vaccinated for everyone in the city within the next 3 months.
There are more and more people on the street, and at this time, some clinics that serve as medical points have been blocked. Long queues have formed. Everyone wants to get vaccinated as soon as possible. This vaccine can prevent the next generation of deformed children, atrophy, physical abnormalities and defects during growth, and other diseases. The most important thing is that the life span can be extended to between 150 years old. For most people, this is the best gift received at the beginning of this year's New Year.
Many people smiled with relief, and many businessmen and family members had already been vaccinated a few hours ago. After the vaccine is injected, the body will have a rejection reaction for several days, which may be accompanied by a low fever and general discomfort. Congress has also begun to publish some information on the website.
What many people did not expect was that many company bosses gave paid leave for the first time. Anyone who has been vaccinated can rest for three days, and these three days will be paid according to normal wages.
The city seems to be ready to welcome more people. After all, the area of the city is very large with 120 districts. The population of many districts has dropped below 10,000 and will become a dead zone as soon as possible.
The new round of population growth means that the city's economy, which has been unchanged and has begun to solidify and scab, will usher in very high growth in the days to come.
The birth subsidies accumulated in various districts in the city for so many years can fully meet the birth of a large number of newborns. No local management official dares to touch this money, because once it is moved, it will be directly finished.
Today is a day full of hope for most people, and the future is beautiful for most people. Congress has promised to gradually introduce two types of security fund systems for medical care and pension in the future.
For businessmen and family members, this means a new round of business opportunities is coming. As early as two months ago, a large number of companies applied for the right to operate children-related products and submitted a large number of applications, but so far, Congress has not approved any of them.
At this time, on the lawn of Angus's house, there were more than ten take-offs and landings, and a large number of students from the school had come. Alpha held the syringe and smiled at his frightened mother.
"Mom, it's okay, but there will be a continuous pain for about half an hour when the injection is injected."
Avano has been vaccinated by his daughter. At this time, he is sitting in a shed and looks very painful.
"Be gentle, daughter."
Alpha said with a smile.
"It's okay, you can have a good rest today. I will take care of everything in this manor with my classmates in the next few days. You can have a good rest for a few days."
More than 100 students from the school came early this morning and have begun to vaccinate more than 4,000 people from the Angus family and its affiliated families.
The news media has begun to report that the beginning of the new year is a very important event for the entire city. The streets are full of people. Some people who have arrived at the medical point and found that it is completely impossible to wait for the vaccination have returned to the streets and plan to continue to prepare for the all-night carnival tonight.
"Mom, don't be so nervous, relax."
Alpha smiled and looked at his mother. She was most afraid of injections. After a while, Violet grinned in pain and completed the injection. Alpha smiled and looked at the other people in the family who were still queuing.
"Miss, why don't we get the injection tomorrow and let you do these things"
"It's okay, we'll do it, you just need to have a good rest for a few days."
At this time, Alpha took out the phone during the injection.
"Fat brother, are you coming today?"
"Come, bullshit, if you can come and replace me, I will go, how about Alpha."
Alpha smiled awkwardly, she didn't like the upper class that Locke talked about. Every time Locke came back, he would tell them about some of his experiences in the upper class. Unlike King Xue, who went to banquets from time to time but never revealed anything, Locke would never stop talking.
At this time, Locke hung up the phone and looked angrily at the courtyard with sunlight. Hawke was holding his wife Kailin and talking, and their faces were full of happiness.
"Are you done? Have you had enough?"
Kaylene hurriedly pushed Hawke away, and Locke squatted on the ground and poked the lawn with his fingers.
"Little Fatty, let's go."
Hawk said and jumped out of the courtyard wall. Locke and Kailin said hello and followed him out of the courtyard wall.
"When can I retire?"
Locke felt that things were getting more and more wrong. He seemed to have been roped in. Now Hawke often asked him to attend banquets alone. Locke had had enough of everything at the banquet. Money, power, and sex were three things that had to be dealt with extremely hard. It's a waste of time. If you accidentally let go of the truth or something else, you will be in trouble. Locke really wants to get out of this state as soon as possible.
"Hoke, you don't want to leave the mess to me, and then leave in style, eating, drinking and having fun every day with your beauty, right?"
Hawke stopped and immediately started laughing.
"What are you thinking about, little fat guy? Think about it carefully. Which of your classmates is not more capable than you?"
Locke thought so, just keep working for the gods to save money for a few years.
"By the way, Fatty, weren't there many beauties at the banquet who approached you and wanted to get along with you?"
Locke shook his head.
"Do I dare to ask for it? Asking for it means agreeing to the other party's conditions. I'm not an idiot, and I can't handle those women. Did you really not lie to me, Hawke?"
Hawk smiled and nodded.
"Don't worry, Xiaopang. When I retire, you can retire with me."
Today is another busy day. Locke went to the Congress for a meeting at 4 o'clock last night, preparing to give a detailed video conference explanation on the development of a life-span vaccine announced by Congress today.
"Really let me say it?"
Locke asked, and Hawke, who had already stepped into the landing gear, nodded.
"It's okay, you have to practice hard. After all, I am always the only one to say that the public is somewhat tired of aesthetics. You look very honest. Didn't the previous TV speeches work well!"
Locke patted his belly.
"You mean I'm fat, asshole."
8:10 am
The video conference has started for nearly 10 minutes, and many people who are still queuing up for vaccination are watching. However, to the surprise of many people, the televised speech this time is not from Hawke, but from Deputy Supervision Team Leader Gary Locke. .
"This little fat guy talks very well."
Someone in the crowd started talking, and many people smiled and nodded in agreement.
"Yeah, I always think that guy Hawke is a bit too serious. This little fat guy has a nice smile."
"You look honest and honest."
People in the city are talking a lot, but many people in the upper echelons no longer pay attention to these things. Some big families in the upper echelons have their own private doctors and medical teams. Most people don't need to go to the hospital to line up for injections. They can go directly to the hospital for injections. Just at home, most people are still preparing for the formal dinner tonight.
"How are you doing lately!"
Gene stood at the fence of a courtyard, holding a cigarette in his hand. Not far from Gene, Ji Yun was breastfeeding her child.
"Mr. Jean, why haven't you come over recently? You haven't been to my house for a long time. Do you want to have dinner at our house tonight?"
Gene smiled helplessly and shook his head.
"I'm sorry, Xiaoyun. I'm busy with many things now. This child has a nice smile."
Ji Yun sighed.
"I'm afraid that he has inherited his father's introverted character. Tell me, Mr. Jean, my husband has recently made a loss in business, and the family is already criticizing him."
"Just take your time. No one can do everything right at the beginning."
Gene smiled and looked at this family gathering place just below First Avenue. He would come here from time to time to visit. There were many friends Gene knew here.
"By the way, Mr. Jean, tonight the youngest son of the Clayman family is getting married to the daughter of the Chloe family. Will you come?"
Jean said after thinking for a while.
"Forget it, when Mr. Kleiman was still alive, I might have gone there often, but now I'm not very familiar with this generation of their family."
Ji Yun walked up to Jean with the child in her arms and handed the child to Jean. Jean held Ji Mo in his arms, smiling and making faces to tease the baby. The baby in his arms smiled. Come.
"When this child grows up, I hope Mr. Jean can take some time to teach him."
"Aren't you worried?"
Ji En said, Ji Yun shook her head.
"We feel more at ease teaching Mr. Jean. After all, the people you brought out, Mr. Jean, are all better. This is obvious to all of us. That Locke guy is really good. He will participate in Clayman tonight." Wedding ceremony at home and at Chloe’s house.”
"Little Fatty is really a nice guy. By the way, Ji Yun, do you have any suitable unmarried girls of the right age? Can you help introduce some to Little Fatty?"
Ji Yun was a little surprised.
"Mr. Jean, Mr. Locke is very popular with the girls at the banquet. Don't you know, many girls in the family want to marry him."
Gene laughed.
"It seems that my worries are unnecessary. By the way, Xiaoyun, when you have time, go to the Chen family to see Wilsie. She seems to be..."
Ji Yun sighed.
"I've been there a few times, but to be honest, although we were classmates before, my relationship with her was not very good. Freya may have a very good relationship with her, but Freya has hardly been with her recently. Going home?"
Jean looked helplessly into the distance.
"Maybe I should have stopped her on the night of her wedding."
"I don't think so, Mr. Jean. Even if you stop it, it doesn't matter. Family marriage is inevitable. You should know this better than anyone. You don't look like a god at all, more like a qualified nanny." ,Ha ha!"
Gene held up the end of the season with a smile, and the child burst into laughter. Then Gene returned the end of the season to his mother, Ji Yun.
"Sorry Xiaoyun, I have to go to Jiang's house now."
With that said, Gene jumped out of the fence, with Ji Yun waving behind him.
Jean strolled through the elegant gathering place of small and medium-sized families, and greeted many people along the way. Soon Jean followed the path and went directly to Jiang's house at the end of First Avenue.
As soon as he entered the courtyard of Jiang's house, the alarm rang. Gene quickly walked towards the main mansion in the distance, where there were a large number of stars, directors, playwrights, painters from the film and television area, as well as news media company bosses from all walks of life. They all gathered on Jiang's lawn.
At this time, a woman in a black suit ran over and bowed.
"Lord Jean, Mr. Jiang Hao and Ms. Honghong are waiting for you."
Jean walked quickly to the gate of the mansion. For a while, many female stars noticed Jean and looked over in surprise. There was a commotion at the gate of the mansion. The crowd separated and stood up straight on both sides. After bowing, Jean smiled and nodded to both sides before entering the mansion.
Soon Jean came to a large living room on the second floor. Jiang Hao and Honghong stood in the living room. The couple held hands and bowed to Jean.
"Lord Jean, I've been waiting for you for a long time!"
Jiang Hao smiled and hurriedly took out a bottle of expensive-looking wine from the cabinet and poured a glass for Jean. After the door behind him closed, Jean sat on the sofa in the living room.
"I received a call from Lord Jean last night. We were waiting here early this morning. What happened?"
Jiang Hao looked at Jean suspiciously, rolled his eyes, then smiled and walked over with the wine bottle.
"Is it a problem with the proliferation of drugs in the film and television area?"
Gene nodded.
"As long as you know it, I won't repeat it again. Honghong, you are the president of the Entertainment Association!"
Honghong smiled and nodded.
"I know Mr. Jean, I will handle it. That's good. How about we announce some iron rules. Once anyone is found to have taken illegal drugs in the film and television area, he will never be hired."
Gene nodded.
"One more thing! This is not Area 29, I hope you two can understand."
Jiang Hao smiled and nodded.
"But some things cannot be completely eliminated. As for drugs, it is not our own fault. What should the medical association say? Mr. Jean, you have to go over and talk about this issue."
Gene stood up, drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, then turned around, walked to the back window, and jumped onto the window sill.
“Delicious wine, thank you for the treat!”
After Jean left, the couple looked at each other and smiled. They walked hand in hand to the large balcony on the second floor near the main entrance of the mansion. Looking at the large number of happy people below, Jiang Hao felt helpless. Sighed.
"It's true. You've obviously warned me repeatedly. People are really creatures with no self-control."
Honghong held a glass of wine, took a sip and shook her head.
"Then the woman's next scene should be replaced by this woman's."
As she said this, Honghong took out her phone, and after clicking it, Jiang Hao took a look. She saw an actress named Chense, who had participated in many low-budget movies. She seemed to have average reviews and wasn't too pretty. .
"Then what should Ada do?"
"She doesn't fit into this circle. Drive her away. I don't want to see her doing pimp business at banquets in the future."
Jiang Hao nodded thoughtfully.
"But honey, this kind of thing is not good. Although that woman is a madam, she is still of some use."
Jiang Hao said very carefully, not daring to offend this woman at all, because the Jiang family can be so glorious now because of her contribution. However, because of her cheating on Honghong during her pregnancy, she suffered a mental breakdown and miscarried. His career also plummeted.
After that, Jiang Hao didn't dare to mess around anymore. She listened to Honghong on many things. She was now the absolute leader of the Jiang family, and she could only be considered the second child.
"Can't you hear what Mr. Jean means?"
Jiang Hao was puzzled for a long time.
"What's the meaning?"
"Mr. Jean drank the wine I poured, but not the wine you poured. Can you understand the difference?"
Jiang Hao blinked.
"It's just a glass of wine."
"He said at the beginning that I was the president of the Entertainment Association. Don't you understand? Why are you still talking about the medical association, you idiot?"
Honghong squeezed the wine glass and exploded it. Jiang Hao was startled, and then she rubbed her hand directly on Jiang Hao's clothes.
"If we don't do something, or make a little change, Mr. Jean will take action against the entertainment industry next. You idiot, do you really think you are the boss if you have money?"
Jiang Hao couldn't say a word for a long time, and he didn't dare to disobey his wife's wishes. He nodded and smiled and hurriedly took Honghong's hand.
"Let me see if there is anything broken! But wife, why would you use such an unknown actor?"
Honghong laughed.
"Beckinsale recommended it."
Jiang Hao's eyes suddenly lit up.
"He must be the owner of the studio on East 6th Street in the film and television area."
"Thank you for remembering!"
Jiang Hao said with a chuckle.
"Of course, after all, she is a rare beauty."
"Idiot, she is indeed beautiful, but she is also a very scary woman. This actor named Chense has been recommended by her 1037 times in the past three years, as well as other more or less small actors, thousands more. times, at least hundreds of times, including film directors, screenwriters, etc. I will also use a new director this time, and the investment is tentatively 10 million. "
As she spoke, Honghong clicked on another page of information. It was a movie called "The Queen", and the script had been carefully selected and polished for a long time.
"Can this thing really be sold for money?"
Jiang Hao asked doubtfully.
"The market has the final say on whether you can sell it for money. What is the current market? The share of movies and TV series is gradually declining. Do you know why? What can be produced through shoddy production and power and sex transactions in the entertainment industry? Now there are many things on the market. A few short sitcoms, just pick them out at random, are better than the garbage produced in the film and television area. If we don’t do something, the entertainment industry will be finished.”
Jiang Hao said "Oh" and looked at it carefully. The director was a person named Lanny, and the script was adapted by a person named Xingyuan who didn't know anything about it.
"Ten million is already a big production. Isn't it too much? How about 5 million?"
Honghong grabbed Jiang Hao's ears.
"Do you want to listen to me?"
Jiang Hao nodded immediately.
"Listen, definitely listen."
Honghong smiled, looked at the planner, Beckinsale, and sneered.
"What a powerful woman."
"What's so great about it? I heard that she starred in movies when the film and television industry first started, but she was not well-known. Later, she seemed to stop acting in movies and established an entertainment company. But the recommended actors, oh yes , that Ada seems to have been recommended by her.”
Honghong nodded.
"I discovered something interesting recently. There are some powerful guys hidden in this city. Have you got the food show done?"
Jiang Hao said with an embarrassed smile.
"That Wu Qun is really a weirdo. He is really a fool if he doesn't appear on TV even if he is given 1 million. He actually asked for 100 million. He may be really crazy."
Honghong stared at Jiang Hao with wide eyes.
"Just give him 100 million."
"Honghong, are you drunk? We have already taken action. He will never want to appear on TV in his life."
Honghong looked at Jiang Hao in surprise.
"So you're just a fool. There are some things that I can't say now and there's nothing I can do to stop them. Wu Qun and Beckinsale will be two of the heavyweights who will stand at the top in the future!"
Jiang Hao swallowed and wanted to laugh, but he didn't dare. He turned around and walked away, planning to go downstairs to drink.
Honghong smiled and looked into the distance.
"There are too few people in this city who truly understand that helping others means helping themselves!"
