: "Dad's illness is also not good, and his eyesight has deteriorated a lot. His hands are shaking when he is working. He has always wanted to recruit some apprentices, as long as he can continue to do it."
Li Langyu asked, "Then what are the conditions for participating in the art exhibition?"
"According to people, it's best to find a famous person to recommend it for you, so that you will have support. Dad went to the headmaster Feng last time, but he refused. In addition, it depends on the decision-making of the people in the review team. "
Butler Zhang interjected: "Actually, it's a matter of attention. You are famous in Peiping, and even people have to sell you three-point thin noodles. Otherwise, why do some companies specially invite singers to cut the ribbon?"
Speaking of singers, Li Langyu remembered that many celebrities came to Peiping to watch art exhibitions this month, and the entertainment section of newspapers often saw such news. He asked Qi Weinan again, "When is the final trial?"
"Two weeks later."
Then there's still time. He blinked his black eyelashes and looked at Butler Zhang with bright eyes, looking extremely expectant.
Butler Zhang waved his hands again and again and said, "Uncle, I can't help you with this task. First, the fourth master forbids me to intervene, and secondly, I don't have the ability to invite a singer."
Li Langyu said: "Who told you to invite a singer, I want to find someone, you can help me put a notice in the newspaper."
A day later, an unusual notice appeared on the people's livelihood section of "Peace Daily". It was said that it was unusual, because the person was anonymous, and because the person sought was unknown and had no pictures, and the length of the text was longer than that of ordinary people. The notice should be long, and the third is the content of the notice. It is like a young man talking to himself. He saw a girl on the overpass. The girl was very beautiful. In terms of height and demeanor, he was very detailed. He said that he did not dare to go forward, so he did not know what the girl's name was. At the end, he attached an old-style poem, which is very similar to the style of the early literati. Information, must be thanked with huge sums of money.
The article is very interesting, and it reads like a young man with unrequited love is confessing. Compared with some trivial reports, this kind of thing naturally attracts the attention of the common people. Everyone looked very happy, and they were all guessing which girl this was written.
And after two days, the notice changed again, still looking for the girl, the narrator said that she always appeared in front of a stall selling wooly monkeys, and she stayed for a long time each time, and then it was a mess. , describes the girl as unique in the sky and the earth, and the last poem is quite sentimental, quite a kind of "I realize that you don't know".
The third article begins with the sentence "She appeared in front of that booth again". The strength of the touting has not decreased but increased, and she is more beautiful than Zhou Luxia.
This time, people are more curious. Zhou Luxia is a movie star who has been on fire in the past two years and is recognized as a beauty. She also came to Peiping during this time and lived in the Great Wall Hotel. Everyone wondered which girl this was, she was more beautiful than Zhou Luxia. Some people say that it is because the lover sees Xi Shi in his eyes.
After all, the overpass is really lively several times these days. There are many people squatting near the booth waiting for the girl to show up. Sometimes they are tired, so they stopped by Qi's hometown's Mao monkey booth, which made the business better. .
And the next few articles, even more popular stars slipped in a circle - more beautiful than Tao Xiaoling, more pure than Sun Ru, Zhu Keying did not have her aura, Jiang Ruopan did not have her Huiya... This is amazing, big guy If you don't believe it or not, the consequence of unbelief is that you have to find out, so more people go.
This matter has come and gone, and it has been spread like a charm. It just so happened that many actresses lived in major hotels in Peiping, and the notice named them by name. As a result, two or three people went to the overpass in disguise, which was even more surprising to the common people. Although the girl didn't see it, she saw a real star. Immediately afterwards, reporters also came. After a series of photos was taken, Qi Lao's small booth was photographed.
Li Langyu said to Qiwei Nan, if someone asked about the girl, he would only say that many people couldn't remember it, and then turned the topic to the issue of being kicked out of Gulou Street because of the art exhibition. Li Langyu taught her how to transition, how to add oil and vinegar to add polish, and said: "Since those reporters have come, they definitely don't want to leave empty-handed, you can tell them about this, let's cast a wide net and cast more bait, there will always be The fish will come."
The matter of Mr. Qi appeared in the newspaper as he wished, Li Langyu thought, at this juncture, any negative news related to the art exhibition will be controlled. As long as someone is sent to talk privately, then it will be smooth sailing and give Mr. Qi a chance to run for election. . If the response was not so great, he would go to Feng Shangyuan and take advantage of it to talk him into recommending Elder Qi.
But two days later, an old man with gray hair came to the booth, holding a newspaper, he didn't ask the girl, just asked who the person who wrote the notice was.
This old man, surnamed Huang Mingzhong, is over seventy years old, has a strong background, and is a senior figure of the Film Association. When he first saw this announcement, he asserted: "It's fake!" The content is too untrue, it's a coincidence There are too many, the literary talent is too good, it is more like an editor, but I don’t know the ultimate purpose of the contributor. After reading a few more articles, I found that the direction is very clear, and the intention is to incite people to go to the Mao monkey booth.
Mr. Huang was born and raised in Peiping. After he became famous, he went overseas for a period of time. Li Langyu met with him, and the two talked for an afternoon.
Qi Weinan was worried that the impact of this incident would not be good, and he was afraid that he would be overwhelmed, but when Li Langyu came out, he told her that it had happened. It means that the recommender has been settled, that is, the old man Huang Zhong.
"How did you convince him?" Qi Weinan asked in disbelief.
"We just chatted about movies and old events in Peiping. Mr. Huang is a native of Peiping, and he also knows about hairy monkeys, so it's more suitable to find him." Li Langyu said simply, as if he didn't want to talk too much about it.
In fact, Huang Zhong asked him in the room, "This matter has nothing to do with you, why do you want to get involved?"
He said: "I had a very unhappy life when I was a child, but a aunt who was not related by blood was willing to take care of me. At that time, my mountains and rivers were cut off, and my horses were flying, and I would not be able to survive without help. So far, there has always been a 'bad' problem, and I am most afraid of encountering people who are down and out. Qi Lao has been plagued by illnesses in recent years, and it is not easy for people to survive.
He smiled and talked about the past without changing his face. But there was another reason that he didn't tell.
Qi Weinan breathed a sigh of relief, this matter finally turned around, she had to finish the work quickly, and the final judgment was the key.
On the other hand, Li Langyu kept frowning, wondering what he was thinking. Butler Zhang asked him, how do you plan to end this matter
"What else?"
"The matter of the newspaper office, I heard that the phone has been blown up. Editor-in-chief Xu has been looking for me in private."
"It's not difficult." Li Langyu took out the prepared manuscript, "The last one, rumors stop with wise men, and public opinion stops with tragedy."
Butler Zhang took it over and saw that this time it wasn't a notice of missing people, but a letter to the king. The tone of the story was changed to that girl, to the effect that he was plain looking, appreciated the king's appreciation, and could not be honored. For the sake of being a married woman, I can only remain anonymous. At the end, I quote Zhang Ji's sentence "Huanjun Mingzhu double tears, I wish I could meet when I was not married", and this is the end.
Li Langyu watched Butler Zhang put it away, and asked casually, "Don't you think it's a coincidence?"
"What coincidence?"
"The timing of Mr. Huang Zhong's appearance, and it didn't take much effort for me to convince him."
Butler Zhang was stunned for a moment, and said, "This matter has spread quite widely, and it's not surprising that he knows."
Li Langyu just stared at him, very interested, and stopped asking questions. After a long time, he opened his mouth and said a word, too.
He had thought of two outcomes before, either taking the opportunity to talk privately with the above, or to persuade Feng Shangyuan, but neither was very reliable. But when you think about it, it's too coincidental. Like the fabricated notice, there are too many coincidences, as if they were deliberately arranged.
However, who can invite the old man Huang Zhong
Thinking of this, Li Langyu frowned, and he laughed softly as if mocking himself.
On the Feng family's side, Li Langyu was not idle either. He used his fingernails to pick some powder from Feng Gan and handed it to He Huaichuan. The result was as he expected. Seeking money to do this night-walking business, so from time to time, he talked to Feng Qian with false words, so that the other party regarded him as half a life-saving straw.
This morning, Li Langyu practiced moves with his disciples in the courtyard. He saw Feng Shangyuan dressed well and wanted to go out. It is said that Commander Qiao will come to Peiping for a year. He is the big benefactor of the Feng family, and Feng Shangyuan is naturally prepared What a great gift to the banquet.
The name Commander Qiao made Li Langyu frown. He had heard it from Cheng Hanliang several times before, and he knew that what happened back then was his order. Even if that person didn't know the truth, he still had a grudge against him. He pondered, since Feng Shangyuan was invited, Cheng Hanliang must be among them, why not take a look at the three-person show.
After Feng Shangyuan left, Li Langyu immediately went out to find a car and followed him all the way to the Great Wall Hotel.
The Great Wall Hotel is one of the best hospitality venues in Peiping, and the guests are all star officials. When he went to Guangzhou earlier, Cheng Hanliang left Li Langyu a membership card of major hotels. Fortunately, he took it with him, and the front desk staff explained the specific private room number to him.
After walking up a few small stairs, Li Langyu saw the three figures in the distance, and it would be inappropriate to get closer, so he sent a sommelier to send a message to Cheng Hanliang.
Sure enough, Cheng Hanliang looked up at him, greeted Commander Qiao and the others, and walked towards him.
Li Langyu stepped forward, and Cheng Hanliang grabbed him before he had time to say an excuse.
