December 9, 1981, ten o'clock in the evening.
In a large banquet hall of the Oriental Hotel, the lights were extremely dim.
The auditorium was lit by candlelight, and the central stage with only the brilliant command attracted the attention of the audience.
On the stage, a female singer wearing a red cheongsam was singing live, accompanied by an electroacoustic band behind her. The song turned out to be "White Blue Pigeon" from Su Xiaoming's tape.
After the song was sung, the audience came to the stage to lay flowers.
Then the lights dimmed, and another male singer focused on singing "In the Middle of the Water", a new Cantonese song released by George Lam last year, in the swirling light.
At this point, everyone in the audience was watching, listening quietly, and almost everyone was intoxicated by it.
Even Hong Yanwu felt that the "Cuiyuan Palace" of the "Oriental Hotel" was indeed well-deserved, and the stage effect was very ideal, very close to the standard of a concert.
You must know that in this era, such lighting and sound effects are the first of its kind in the Republic.
So it is extremely useful to highlight the actor's voice, which is not really outstanding.
It’s no wonder that the seats for 300 people here were full, and even the aisles of the auditorium were filled with people who were “listening in”.
No, after the song was sung and it was time for the actors to take a break, the audience was still unsatisfied.
And the group of people from the capital are even better!
Except Hong Yanwu, who was all lost in thought, no one touched the coke, coffee, tea and snacks on the table for a long time.
In the end, it was Hong Yanwu who dispersed the smoke for everyone and broke the silence.
"Ouch, everyone, what's going on? Wake up..."
In this way, these boys calmed down.
But then everyone started shouting, as if they were stimulated, rushing to express their feelings.
"Holy shit, look at the girls on the stage just now. They have thin skin and tender flesh. They must have grown by drinking milk. A pinch of water."
"Hey, the Flower City is worthy of its name. It's so **** flowery! Look at the clothes of that **** the stage. She's so gorgeous in her clothes and so brave to wear them. We have no business there. She's just a plain girl."
"But no, this place is different from the capital. Even after looking at the trees on the roadside, I realized today that coconut trees look like that."
"That's right, this song is definitely sung at a high level. You said, obviously I can't understand the Cantonese, hey, it makes people feel comfortable."
"Yes, I'm surprised too. They don't sell alcohol here, and I don't drink it, but somehow it feels like I've drunk it. The more I look at those colorful lights, the more I feel like I'm not in the Republic. , seems to be in Hong Kong..."
"Hahaha!"
While everyone was laughing, one finally couldn't help but ridicule.
"Silly ×, that's called a neon light. Look at what you said, it's too exaggerated..."
Hooligans also want to save face, so those who are squeezed out will not work anymore.
"You're so **** clever. If it weren't for Mr. Hong and Mr. Chen, how do you know how the train goes? Besides, you're talking about me. Why were you here just now? Why are you listening to music? My eyes were full of tears..."
"Who is it? Me? Nonsense, you must have read it wrong!"
"Grandson, let's call a thief or catch a thief! You are exaggerating more than anyone else, and you are talking about others. Please be careful not to let tears fall out of your eyes later..."
Look at this fuss, the gangster’s true colors are revealed.
It wasn't until Hong Yanwu knocked on the table and reminded them to "pay attention to their quality and don't embarrass the people in the capital" that this bunch of gangsters started to show their talents.
It is better to say that "Cier Mei" is on her way. She never forgets the well digger when she drinks water. She really doesn't forget who brought her here.
With one lift of the Coke bottle, he saluted Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan.
Just say thank you to the two for bringing her knowledge, otherwise she would not know that the outside world is so wonderful.
He also said that the city where "Yangcheng Hidden Whistle" was filmed was indeed worth a visit and it was a worthwhile trip.
As soon as this was mentioned, the boys were not stupid. They also started to raise their glasses and thanked the two "hands" in a messy manner.
It’s just that the taste of Coca-Cola and coffee is still quite strange to them at this time.
Many people couldn't stand the foreign crime, and they grinned and winked while drinking.
Their virtue made Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan laugh.
Hong Yanwu said, "It's not that easy for these foreigners. In addition to the suffering you have suffered along the way, I guess you must have a lot of complaints in your stomach by now. You thank me so much, but It’s a bit insincere.”
This was a bit unexpected. The boys looked at each other, a little embarrassed.
There was a moment of silence, and I reacted quickly and reconciled immediately.
"Dabao" regained his IQ at this moment and spoke first with a smile.
"Mr. Hong, to tell you the truth, it's hard to get on the train just now. I really don't understand why we men have to suffer this."
"To put it bluntly, where are the clothes not for sale? Stay at home well, okay? Why do you have to suffer such a crime and come so far away? And bring so much money? What if one How unfair is it for a horse to stumble?"
"Especially when you asked us to garnet people on the train, I knew you meant to let us run this line more often, and I felt even colder."
"But there is one thing. After working with you for so long, you have never missed it at all. My brothers also rely on you to live a good life. So I still firmly believe that you must have your reasons. Since you have orders , then we must do as you say no matter what, and get things done first.”
"As expected, all the hard work will be rewarded later. It's really different when you get here. If you don't come out, you won't know what the colorful world outside is like. This flower city is really worth coming."
"The hotel we stayed in, the car we took, the food, drink, play and fun, how can we enjoy it in Beijing? It's really an eye-opener here, this is paradise. I don't know about others, but for me anyway For me, the sins on the road are worth it. I am happy to do this job."
"As for the rest of the matter, you can just continue to give orders. In fact, what does it matter whether we understand or not? You are the head of the family, and I am sure that I will listen to you."
"Dabao"'s words were immediately echoed by everyone, and all the boys nodded in agreement.
"You are quite eloquent."
Even Hong Yanwu couldn't help but laugh.
"Actually, it's normal for you not to understand. It's the same for me. Didn't almost everyone have opinions before it came out? I don't blame you for this."
"As for how you can trust me so much, you guys can come out with me without saying a word, work hard and do your best on the road. You can bear not to complain. I am very satisfied with this."
"What does this mean? It means that I saw the right person. Even though you have doubts, you can still work together to do things even if you are not of the same mind as me. Then I will leave the rest to you."
"So until now, I am willing to explain to you and let you understand why we are here."
For the sake of this, these boys felt at ease, and they were also vaguely excited about being "promoted". They all listened attentively.
Following Hong Yanwu, he blew out the smoke and said it without concealment.
"Our clothing night market is doing well now, it's true. But if you don't think long-term, you have to worry about the short-term. Our income now all depends on the face of the district clothing company. This is putting all our eggs in one If you put it in the basket, you are letting someone else take care of your wallet."
"What should we do if one day the price is raised, the goods are no longer available, and the inventory is sold out? There is no telling when another clothing night market will appear, what should we do?"
"To put it bluntly, the market is just for selling goods. If you don't have a good source of goods, you will make a fool of yourself. Coming here to buy goods is to find more ways out for everyone, and get an extra basket of eggs. It is safe! One day, the clothing company will not be able to point it out. We still have Guangdong products here that can match it.”
