Chapter 20 Chapter Eighteen

Connie, who was originally from Sichuan and was born in Beijing, has not only inherited the handsomeness of Sichuan girls, but also has the carefree and sharp teeth of Beijing girls.Her somewhat neutral husky voice sounds more like a voice actor on the phone.At the age of 27, she is not an actress, but a documentary director. Liu Xiancong intends to make some of the company's books and training activities into video products. I was ordered to contact the film and television company for preliminary negotiations. That's how Connie met. We chatted speculatively on the phone several times.It may be that the "Bookworm" company is famous enough, and Connie expressed great confidence in this cooperation, so she invited me to have an interview in a tea restaurant.

I met a fellow villager on the phone, and Connie and I hit it off right away.She is of medium build, with dignified features, and slightly fat.This is a short courtesy interview, showing the intention of cooperation, we chatted for a while, we all think it is a very promising project.Connie suddenly asked, "Are you single? Don't even have a girlfriend?" I was secretly surprised: "Can you see it?" "I can tell a single man from a married man at a glance." She looked confident. "You have thick eyebrows and big eyes, why do you think the problem is so sharp?"

"Based on intuition, you just say right?" I have to say I admire it, and I want to verify it.Connie pointed at my neckline and smiled mischievously: "Your T-shirt is worn backwards. If you have a wife or girlfriend, this kind of thing should not happen-unless they are also extremely messy." I looked at the reflection from the shadow of the window, and sure enough, I was ashamed.I laughed at myself: "A pet with a home is different from a stray dog. The eyes of a stray dog ​​are full of fear." I didn't ask if she was a stray or a pet, and there was no clue in her simple makeup and piercing eyes.When I went to pay the bill, she had already paid in advance. Although there was not much money, she immediately became stalwart in my heart-this is a reliable feminism!Although she was not ambiguous at all when she smoked.

Two days later, we talked for a while in the company's reception room, and she brought out several lesser-known documentaries she made, and I also showed her the company's products.She and Liu Xiancong seemed to have a good conversation.When sending her downstairs, she said that she would treat me to boiled fish on weekends and introduce me to a little girl, her assistant. The dinner was at the boiled fish restaurant next to Scitech. The lobby of the restaurant was bright, there were many diners, and the price was not cheap.I ordered two dishes in a restrained manner so that the guests could do whatever they wanted.Connie's younger sister was twenty-two years old, petite and dainty, and rather quick-witted.Connie said she was the real Greg.I laughed: "The capital city is different. There are a director, a gege, and an outstanding migrant worker at a dinner table."

In the dining and drinking room, Gege suddenly made fun of us: "I'll let you in on a secret. My sister is busy with work and career all day long, and she's still alone." I felt like I was being attacked by a terrorist attack, and I smirked: "Are you making me an opportunist?" "Everyone is shouting to seize the opportunity, who is not an opportunist?" Grid laughed. "What's the matter, the emperor is not in a hurry for eunuchs—no—are you in a hurry? Are you a good match? Are you afraid I won't be able to get married?" Connie also laughed, pulling out a cigarette from the cigarette case, and I quickly picked it up. The lighter ignited quickly, and it was accurately brought to her mouth to light it for her, while reprimanding: "Smoking is harmful to health."

Ge Ge joked: "Look, what a gentleman! What a great opportunity to seize!" Connie took a puff of smoke and tickled her: "Do you think it's still the Qing Dynasty? Take me as a gift, in a word, you can make whoever you want?" Gege sat inside and had nowhere to escape, and while resisting, he shouted: "Brother, save me! My sister is crazy, you have to watch her more carefully." Connie said to me with some embarrassment: "Don't believe her, she talks nonsense when she drinks." I laughed: "It doesn't matter, Ge Ge has a temper." Connie ordered another fruit salad for the finale. When I checked out the bill, I saw that the three of us ate more than 200 yuan.Considering that Connie paid the bill twice, I slipped fifty yuan to the driver while they were getting into the car.I think it is enough to send Gege to Beixinqiao and Connie to Xizhimen.

When I went home, I sent a greeting message to Connie, and I was asked to call. After a quick wash, I lay on the comfortable mattress and dialed her landline. "What do you mean?" She rushed over. "Sorry, I washed my face and brushed my teeth just now." "That's not what I said." "What's wrong?" I was confused. "Why, you know what you do yourself." I let my somewhat dull mind spin as quickly as possible, and tried: "It's not me who messed up the mandarin ducks, it's your little sister Gege, so I just passively cooperated, diplomatic etiquette."

"That's not what I'm talking about." I was stunned, and Connie's tone rose an octave, "What's wrong? Who the hell asked you to pay the fare?" I was taken aback and laughed: "Hey, why this matter? I thought I had committed some serious crime that is taboo in military affairs." "This is a serious crime!" She roared, "You despise me! You are fucking mad at me!" I was stunned. I don't understand how such a trivial matter can cause human life. What's wrong with women nowadays?I wanted to yell too, but I didn't yell.I only heard Connie let out a long hysterical "Ah—" and the strong and sharp electrical sound caused my ears to ring and scared me out of my wits.I asked timidly, "What's the matter with you, are you all right?"

"fine." I reminded her not to wake up her parents, and she said: "Don't change the subject, I have several apartments in my house, and I live here alone." I had no choice but to return to this topic: "How can I despise you? You paid the bill twice, how dare I?" She insisted: "What's the matter? It was agreed in advance, and I can afford it. If you charge a lot of money, then treat me to 'Shunfeng'." "What Shunfeng? I only know Maofeng. The tea is good, so I can't afford it." She laughed loudly: "Are you stupid? 'Shunfeng' is the best seafood restaurant in Beijing, what about Maofeng?"

I muttered: "You know I'm a child from the mountains." She said, "If you go there, you may not even be able to afford a monthly salary." I plausibly said: "Corruption and waste are great crimes. What I hate the most is eating and drinking! China has been eaten N times." She teased: "That's all you can say. Forget it, I won't tell you anymore. There are too many people who invite me to dinner." There was the rumbling sound of the washing machine on the phone, and I asked, "Are you doing laundry in the middle of the night?" Connie said, "That's how I am, totally irregular."

I said, "It's not good for your health, and it also affects your neighbors." She flared up again: "What's the matter, you? You also criticize me when I smoke, and I also criticize me when I wash clothes. Why are you such a mother-in-law? No wonder you don't have a wife." I compared my heart to my heart: "You don't have a husband either." "It's just that I'm busy. Let me tell you that there are too many people looking for me." Connie said sternly, "I tell you, I have been excellent since I was a child. From elementary school to middle school, I have been an outstanding student in our district every year. I My mother is an excellent worker every year, and my father is a director-level and has been to dozens of countries." "I know that your cats and dogs are all at the department level, and your gatekeeper is also at the deputy bureau level." I couldn't help holding my gun and sticking my stick, "I was a problem student in our district every year from elementary school to middle school. It’s a problem student in our department. My mother is a housewife, and my father was a deputy county-level student when he was dying. I know that if people who want to look for you line up, they will line up at Babaoshan.” Connie said angrily: "It's dead anyway! Can you accumulate some morals?" "That's what people are chasing after life and death. Even if you're a ghost, you're still romantic." I hid under the blanket and laughed, "It's too sensitive. Okay, I apologize, tell me, how can I make it up?" "My birthday is coming soon." She brightened up. "Okay, when?" "The third day of the new year." "This is mine. Let's sell blood once and go to 'Shunfeng'." "Come on? I can't eat it anymore, human blood steamed buns." "Then buy a gift. Take the liberty to ask, what do you like, just say the type." "I like chocolate, you can figure it out." She added after finishing speaking, "What I like doesn't have to be expensive." "It's really considerate of people's feelings! This is easy to pass." "What do you know, there is a lot of knowledge in chocolate, I will give you a chance to learn." I took the opportunity to say: "Ge Ge passed that test, but you are not going to pass this one. This chance is too slim." "Haha, you can withdraw." I was a little embarrassed, so I turned to talk about the company's cooperation. In order not to waste Connie's energy on budgeting, I revealed the inside story. Mr. Liu didn't want to invest, he just wanted to buy shares with the brand and copyright.Connie said that she had already seen it, Mr. Liu is too shrewd.I said apologetically, "I'm sorry I wasted so much of your time and cost you money." "It's okay, and I've gained something. Don't I know you? Although you are a nice person sometimes, you are not bad." "What is 'face'?" "Have you ever seen ramen before? It's just sticky, not tough enough, like a girl." "With no money, no house, no car, no job, no wife, can I be strong? You can stand and talk without back pain!" I lamented. "Then you have to keep your spirits up! Whether it's hard or not, think about the 25,000 Red Army." "Understood, no matter how poor you are, you have to squeeze into the crowd of rich people. Am I not moving closer to you now?" I said with a laugh. "I am prickly." "I'm just wondering, why are girls so fierce nowadays? Are they eating hormone food?" I complained, and Wu Tongtong's shadow loomed. "Like a mother, like a daughter." "Ah——, your mother is also like this? The second mother is teaching the child! I'd better hide as soon as possible." I was shocked. "Hehe, are you afraid?" "If you don't know how to fall in love, you will die!" I said every word, and Connie laughed again: "I guess you have to get cold feet, I am mentally prepared, I have seen a lot." nonsense!I was not mentally prepared to enter the lunatic asylum, and I didn't know how to get in. I immediately decided to adopt the invincible art of war-withdraw! The first snow in 2001 was actually not that big (compared to Wisconsin, it’s a piece of cake), and it had some light rain before, and it was extraordinarily cold.After lunch, it was already dark. First came the sleet, and then the snowflakes came unknowingly.When I got off work, I was shocked when I saw it from the window. On the gloomy, white, foggy and cold third ring road, there were eight round-trip lanes. No matter the main road or auxiliary road, the endless traffic flow writhed like intestinal obstruction. It's the first block. The road was icy and extremely slippery, and there were people crying and crying everywhere.With no car to take, I had no choice but to approach the bus station like walking on a balance beam.The cold wind whipped people like an invisible whip. I shrank my neck and stomped my feet, panting, and squeezed into the car after freezing for an hour. More torment has just begun.The people inside the iron shell were stuffed like compressed twists, with their chests attached to their backs, showing twisted postures and pained expressions like struggling relief reliefs of massacres.No matter how disgusting you are with a guy (for example, this guy has a dirty face and a lot of bad breath), you have to keep him (her) in a close hug.Either you stepped on my foot, or I bumped your waist, or he was squeezed into the air by the human body; either she squeezed his glasses, or he touched her chest; she didn't scold him Playing a hooligan, that is, he scolded me for being played by a hooligan; either the child cried, the woman screamed, or the rough guys yelled and fought.However, no matter how fierce the internal strife among the people in the car was, they all adopted the policy of "safety inside must first fight outside" and unanimously scolded those who hadn't squeezed into the car: "It's squeezed into dumpling stuffing, wait for the next car to come." dead?" "Can you come up if you don't squeeze? If you have the ability, you can take a taxi." "If you don't stay in your hometown, what are you doing here in Beijing?" "Is Beijing your home?"... A bus that looks like a fucking Noah's Ark.When it started, the people who squeezed into the car thought they had timed it, only to find that they were more unlucky than those who didn't squeeze into the car.The car squirmed cautiously on the icy road, often stopping within ten meters, and the wait lasted more than ten minutes.The car windows are closed, the temperature rises, the oxygen becomes thinner, the air becomes more suffocating, and bad gases continue to flow into the human respiratory and excretory system.Fortunately, I was huddled in the position behind the rear door of the carriage, and there was a railing separating me from the crowded crowd, and I could breathe a breath of cold, dirty but refreshing air through the narrow door. The most thrilling scene happened on the uphill of Sanyuan Bridge.The wheels spun suddenly, the driver stepped on the accelerator, and the car cried out, swaying from side to side like a drunk with a load on it, and just wouldn't move forward.Suddenly, the wheels spun forward rapidly, but the car body slid backwards. The passengers were frightened, and the car behind honked its horn urgently.The driver became anxious, slammed the steering wheel, and slammed into the car behind him unstoppably. With a loud "bang", the car slid towards the middle of the road.Our car slammed into a bridge pier, skidded harshly for a few meters, the front of the car swept to the left, and finally came to a stop just before hitting another car in the other lane. Passengers screamed, the driver opened the door and yelled to get out of the car and push the car.People near the door jumped down one after another, turning their backs on their backs.The conductor said "one, two, three, let's go!", and we, number one hundred and ten, were pushing this huge monster.The cold wind is biting, and the breath turns into frost. Even with gloves on, the coldness of the compartment is still transmitted to you through the wool.The most frightening thing is that they can't stand firmly on their feet, have no strength point, and can't push two steps.I saw some heads poking out of the windows of the "China Travel Building" beside the bridge, looking down from a high position, as if watching a weird game.At any rate, he pushed the car to a high place, and struggled to squeeze into the car again.I lost that precious seat and was squeezed into the car door, consoling myself that I still had a cold and solid car door to support my back. The vast majority of people on the road are firmly stuck.The entire traffic in Beijing was paralyzed, and an emergency plan has been activated to clear it.The traffic station suggested staying overnight in the company, or staying in a nearby hotel.Complaints erupted in the car: "Dignified Beijing, it's just a little snow, what should we do when there is a war?" "With this traffic, how about hosting the Olympics?" "Don't worry buddy, we're doing the Summer Olympics." "That's right, there is no need to build a speed skating track for the Winter Olympics." ... The nightmare did not end. An hour later, the car crawled to Liangma Bridge, which was one kilometer away, and the "shoforn wind" was blown again, paralyzing it.Some people who lived nearby begged the driver to open the door to let them out, but they were refused.I saw all kinds of faces: sad and sad faces, disgusted and indifferent faces, numb faces, and the naive faces I tried to squeeze out to the two girls next to me, and they responded with dull faces.We were thus kidnapped by bad weather and an iron shell.Gradually, tiredness and hunger tortured people to the point where they lost all strength to complain, their heads drooped, and some fell asleep.I wiped the small car window on the door covered by fog with my hands, and I could see luxury hotels such as the Kunlun Hotel and Jingcheng Building nearby. The lights were condensed under the snow and fog.On the sidewalk of the side road under the bridge, some people walked tremblingly against the cold wind.A few women suspected of being sex workers were cruising along the roadside with a fighting spirit, and sometimes a man tremblingly stepped forward to bargain with them who were shivering with cold.The desire to survive the cold and humanistic care are much more than the sham "sending warmth to the countryside" on TV-people are sending warmth to the countryside, and they are not at the same level at all.Touched!If there was a pennant, a certificate of merit, a medal, and roasted sweet potatoes, I would rush over and give them to them. Finally unable to resist the burnout accumulated every minute, he fell asleep while standing...Suddenly he was woken up by the girl next to him: "How many times has your phone rang!" "That's right?" I said dazedly. "It's definitely yours, we both checked," she said, trying to make room for me with the person next to her. "Thank you!" I struggled to get out my phone, and when I saw it was a number in the suburbs of Beijing, I answered the phone in confusion. "Hello, Ge Haiyang?" A familiar yet unfamiliar accent from Dicheng. "Mr. Xu, why are you?" I was really surprised, "How do you know my phone number?" He said that he called my home and asked about it. He said he had just returned from a European inspection and was stuck in an airport hotel.I wailed: "It turns out that you brought the Nordic snow back to Beijing. It's a mess, and I'm still stuck in the bus." It was less than ten kilometers away, and I walked for more than four hours. I didn't arrive at my "home" until eleven o'clock in the evening, and I was already a dead body. Xu Dakuan was wearing a fur coat and carrying a fashionable leather bag.He has grown up a bit, his career success has made him hold his head high, he walks majesticly, and speaks like a bell.As soon as he saw me in the lobby, he scolded me for not contacting him for so long. "There is no signal in the basement, and I just had a part-time job here." I said embarrassingly, took his bag and walked to the elevator. He patted me on the shoulder: "I'm promising, look how bullish your office building is, how can there be a capital bull in the city?" I said, "Don't give me brainwashing (Note: Brainwashing, Sichuan dialect, make fun of, make fun of.), this is just a temporary safe haven relief station, and I will have to go back to the basement soon." "It's good to know the hometown now. If it doesn't work, go back. Is face so important?" Xu Dakuan enlightened me, and I nodded repeatedly, but said, "Workers have no homeland, and homeless people have no homeland." "Nonsense, do you speak the dialect of your hometown without your hometown?" He walked into the "Bookworm" company shoulder to shoulder with me. The company's Dicheng people were surprised to see Xu Dakuan, and in Dicheng he could only see him on TV.Mr. Liu and Mr. Bai accompanied him around the company, and specially invited him to a banquet in a nearby luxury restaurant, and everyone in the city attended.Liu Xiancong said: "I didn't expect Ge Haiyang to know such a big man." Bai Lingzhi said to me: "Yeah, Xu Dakuan's body is thicker than our waists. You have wronged yourself." Xu Dakuan smiled: "My small chicken feather shop? A fish pond as big as the city of Di can't accommodate him. I just said him." Bai Lingzhi made a rescue for me: "In other words, he has a lot of pursuit." Everyone said it was that, but I had a wry smile on my face. After chatting about the city for a while, and then talking about business, Liu Xiancong and Bai Lingzhi hoped that Xu Dakuan would invest in them. Xu hehe laughed, pointed at me and said, "This person encouraged me to invest in the cultural industry a few years ago. My God, I’m a rough person, I can’t read a few characters that are as big as a basket, and I haven’t woken up after selling me to Afghanistan (Note: wake up, Sichuan dialect, understand, come to my senses. The same below.).” Xu Dakuan told Liu Xiancong that he would go to Tianjin the next day and wanted me to accompany him, so he asked for two days off for me.After the dinner, Mr. Liu sent us to the "Great Wall Hotel".When I got out of the taxi, I shivered a few times, and a few women with heavy make-up stuck to them. They opened their mouths wide open, breathing in the cold, with their thick down jackets open, half-exposing their breasts and thighs. It's really touching and warm. .I sighed in Dicheng dialect: "The mountains and rivers of the whole country are all yellow!" Xu Dakuan encouraged me: "Have you taken a fancy to it? Pick one if you like it, and I will pay the bill." "The street sweepers are too shabby." I blurted out. "Then let's go to 'Heaven and Earth', I heard it's not bad." He pointed to a door-style advertisement next to it.It's a pity that I had never heard of this so-called most upscale nightclub in the country at that time, and I missed an opportunity to observe it on the spot. I said I had a girlfriend.Xu Dakuan said that it would not corrupt me, and asked me to ask her to come and get to know her, and then go to the bar later.I pondered for a while, trying to call both Swallow and Connie. This earliest five-star hotel in Beijing has a castle-style exterior, which looks old and frail at first glance, but the interior is quite luxurious.Xu Dakuan took out his credit card and wanted to open a room for me. I looked at the price list and hurriedly stopped him: "Forget it, it costs more than a thousand to sleep. It's too rotten. I don't live far away." Xu Dakuan insisted on booking a room, saying that he would leave early tomorrow morning, and there would be a show.We pushed back and forth like this, and the pretty bartender advised me: "Don't disappoint the boss." I had no choice but to accept it, and went to the room from the elevator. Xu Dakuan called two attendants, "Fighting the Landlord", and deliberately made me win more than 3,000 yuan, who was bound to lose every gamble.After playing cards for a while, Xu Dakuan asked me to contact friends and go to Sanlitun for a drink. The more people there, the better. I began to wait for my friends to arrive in this temporarily mine room.The room is well-equipped, spotlessly clean, rich and luxurious, and some foreign channels can be watched on the satellite TV.What I am most satisfied with is this five-star mattress.The elastic mattress with just the right amount of flexibility shrinks along the ups and downs of my body, every compression of mine will cause it to respond softly and empathetically, and every loosening of my body will return a dutiful rebound. From the window in mid-air, I looked down at the Liangma Bridge downstairs. The traffic resumed after the ice shovel truck and salt sprinkler truck dealt with it urgently.Twenty hours ago, I was still curled up like a silkworm chrysalis in that small, smelly space surrounded by broken iron sheets, unable to move; two or three months ago, I was still living in a cellar like a water prison.Really FMD is like playing a bungee jump. A few men arrived first.It was the first time I saw Hu Meng after the black intermediary incident. Not long after he sneaked back to Beijing after hiding his debts from the Northeast, he was more energetic than before.The business card he gave us shows that he has changed his name to Hu Jun, and he has added a scary title: Doctor of MBA from "Western Pacific University" in the United States.I exclaimed that he was awesome, and he chuckled: "Instead of selling books, it's better to sell yourself." I also chuckled: "Okay, you, the most valuable people in China in the 21st century are fake foreign devils like you." The swallow is dressed up like a peacock.The hair is tall, with some colorful decorations stuck on it, and the fluorescent light is shining under the light; the eye circles and eyeliner are thick and thick, looking like porcelain and national treasures; the scarlet lipstick makes her lips look like A pool of blood, still vibrating from the cold; a thick smear of foundation, like a layer of colored dust.Swallow complained as soon as they met: "The gate guard won't let me in, what kind of person do you think he is, what kind of stuff!" I was very dissatisfied: "If I don't let the security guards let you in, can't you dress up a little more ladylike? How can we go out with you when you dress up? There are all decent people here." Yanzi plausibly said: "Boss, I'm going to be filming soon, I've read the script, let's get familiar with the characters first." I didn't think so: "What are you playing? Turkey or Gallic chicken?" "Fallen angels, but in the end the golden basin has been reborn." Yanzi snapped and took out the receipt, "My taxi fare." I saw more than 30 yuan, and gave her a hundred yuan. She took a long time to change the money. Xu Dakuan smiled and scolded me: "It's ridiculous, such a beautiful woman came to drink with us, and you are so fussy." I mocked: "You didn't see her when she cared about me before. Ask her to bring a baked sweet potato along the way and sneak a bite." Yanzi rushed over and pinched my neck: "Mr. Xu, don't listen to his nonsense." Sanlitun Bar Street is located in the largest embassy district and diplomatic residence in Beijing.Under the night, one kind of high-sounding life ends, and another kind of mysterious and unpredictable life lifts the veil.The neon lights are flickering, the murmur is lingering, the smell of alcohol is pervasive, and the figures are haunting like ghosts.Groups of colorful foreigners looked around.Arrogant pimps and ambiguous sex workers fling at the hungry men like flies, and they are honest with their compatriots: "Brother, do you want to play? It's cheap, and it's cool." To the East Asians who ignored them, they muttered: "Devil, right? Stick?" Then gestured to them to mean a flower girl.To Westerners or Arabs, say in broken English: "Lady bar, lady bar." To those who ignore them, swear: "Stupid, don't understand life." A foreigner who is irritated He scolded back: "You are so stupid, you are so stupid, your mother is looking for smoke?" They scattered.No matter their Chinese or English, there is a strong taste of white mountains and black waters. In response to Yu Jianghu's sentence, the government is too busy, so they will fill in the gaps.We got rid of the harassment, went around and picked a big bar with a band playing.This is probably the most expensive bar in China. A dry small bottle of beer "Carlsberg", "Heineken" or "Budweiser" costs more than 30 yuan, and the cheapest "Qingdao" costs 25 yuan.A small box of popcorn is 20 yuan, and a skewer is 10 yuan.Two fruit plates, eight boxes of popcorn, five bottles of beer per person, more than a thousand went out.Xu Dakuan took out a stack of banknotes and said to me, "This is 5,000 yuan, and you are responsible for paying the bill." After a while Connie came, driving here by herself.We moved her and she sat next to me.After the introduction, Xu Dakuan joked: "So you are Ge Haiyang's girlfriend? I thought it was Yanzi, but I don't think they look like them." Connie smiled noncommittally, and asked Xu Dakuan, "Is this your first time in Beijing?" Xu Dakuan smiled sheepishly: "It seems that this is not the first time. I saw the red sun in Tiananmen Square when the Red Guards joined forces." "Oh, not me." Connie also smiled coyly, looked at Yanzi, and asked me, "You don't want to introduce this beauty?" "This is a future star in the film and television industry." I said, and then said to Yanzi, "Let's introduce myself." Yanzi speeded up the speed of swallowing the skewers, and suddenly said without thinking: "I am Gege's live-in girlfriend." Everyone was shocked, and Connie was also baffled. Yanzi smiled and added: "I misunderstood, I am Ge Ge's female roommate who lives in the same room, referred to as cohabiting girlfriend." Connie stared at me in astonishment, teasing: "Oh, what about Ge Haiyang?" "Beipiao, who doesn't have this kind of experience?" I hurriedly said, and Hu Meng also smoothed things over for me: "I also have a cohabiting girlfriend now, and I have nocturnal wanderlust, which is terrible." Connie smiled faintly: "Oh, is that so, Ge Haiyang doesn't have nocturnal excursions, does he?" I hurriedly said, "What's wrong with me? I fell asleep and fell asleep until I woke up." "I don't have one either, it would be miserable. Our house doesn't even have a curtain." Yanzi continued to reveal.Everyone laughed again, I was a little embarrassed, and gave Yanzi a hard look.Obviously, she is more interested in grilled skewers, and she can't get tired of it.Connie asked Yanzi: "Yanzi is also in the circle?" Yanzi muttered: "Forget it, I'm going to make a movie, big sister will help me later." Connie asked her which crew, Yanzi said one without comment, Connie said she had never heard of it, and Yanzi reported Director Yin's name: "He is from 'Hee Hee TV'." Connie said teasingly: "Everyone who talks about it, 'Hee Hee TV' has become a panacea." Xu Da looked at it with interest for a while, and then made a relief: "Can you talk about something outside your circle, and take care of our circle as well." Connie was taken aback by his mandarin with a thick urban accent, and she understood after he repeated it twice, almost laughing people under the table, and set off a second round of alcoholic orgasms.Connie, who missed the first round, soon died.Yanzi's drinking capacity even shocked Xu Dakuan's entourage who specially brought him to guard against alcohol. She drank seven or eight bottles before she was able to make up her mind. She went to the bathroom twice and yelled for more wine.Xu Dakuan became more and more happy, and asked me to serve another 40 bottles. Yanzi immediately monopolized 10 bottles. After drinking, several elders bowed their heads and bowed their heads. Hu Meng shouted: "Yin (human) talent!" Not only did she have an amazing voice, but she also had an amazing appetite for alcohol. She even ate a few boxes of popcorn and more than a dozen skewers, which made everyone around her dumbfounded.Connie looked at her with interest, as if she were a found child. What is even more frightening is the madness of the swallow.When the drinkers were happy, they got up and danced with the band, but Swallow stood on the table and led the dance with a loud voice.Her strange attire and frantic twisting immediately became a new magnetic vortex for the audience, the resident singer also took the opportunity to rest, and the band was still playing hard.All the people stared at her drunkenly, and some people stopped to watch outside the window.When the bar staff came to interfere, Yanzi refused to let her go, and the staff left embarrassingly.Inspired by the swallows, some people also climbed up the table. Hu Meng, who was drunk at our table, climbed up tremblingly. He was as flamboyant as a Bohemian, and he howled impromptuly while baring his teeth and claws: "The sea depends on the helmsman. Getting promoted and getting rich depends on drinking, ethanol nourishes the seedlings, and revolution depends on Zhu Bajie's drinking capacity. Men can't live without wine and women can't live without birds..." The movement is passionate, the public sentiment is stimulated, and the atmosphere reaches a climax.Not only did the swallows cramp their hands and feet on our table, their fingers frantically danced around their necks, they also jumped up and down on several adjacent tables, and finally kicked over a few bottles of beer, and threw my mobile phone on the table into a Beer bath, and soiled Connie's clothes.We frantically found napkins to help Connie wipe her clothes, but Connie said nonchalantly that she would go first, got up and left.Everyone couldn't keep her, Yanzi pulled her: "Sister, we will go to have supper later." Connie said "I'm not as big as you" and left, so I hurried out to see her off.As soon as she went out, Connie yelled at Hedong Lion: "How do you have such a friend? What qualities?" "She's just my ex-girlfriend who lived together." I didn't think so, "Isn't that what an actress should do?" "That's it, just play a scumbag, or a hungry person." Connie teased, and I gave a thumbs up: "You are worthy of being a director, you really have a vision, she really plays a young girl who has lost her footing, and she is warming up now." Connie said, "What are you warming up for? I think she has already entered the drama." "She's crazy all by herself, she's not bad." I said, but Connie retorted, "Then why don't you find her, she's a live-in girlfriend." "Don't mention this." I suddenly smiled, and Connie sneered: "Who is the future star of the Chinese entertainment industry? A chaihuo girl like her has hundreds of thousands in Beijing. You go to the gate of Beiying to see, It's all for nothing to let people 'unspoken rules'." "What unspoken rules?" She gave me a white look: "Are you pretending not to understand? It's just letting people sleep for nothing, and sleeping for nothing." I was displeased: "Don't look down on people, what's wrong with Chaihe girl, Chaihe girl has no ideals? She doesn't have the right to look forward to a better future? I'm still Chai Hezi." "Haha, perfect match!" Connie laughed loudly, "If you want to play tricks on me, I'll 'understand' you." "Be willing to be a sex slave to offer your spring and autumn!" I blurted out, and I almost assumed the pose of being generous to death in a model play. "Fuck you, it's the winter solstice, it's still spring and autumn." She got into the car and said, "You are unreliable, let's just be ordinary friends." I had nothing to say, watched the car disappear into the corner of the night, and walked back dejectedly, while reflecting on my quality problems.As soon as he saw me, Yanzi said: "What a disappointment! Why do you have such a friend? You are also a director, what kind of quality?" I said angrily: "Just the eldest sister, let alone the second sister." "She's an ass, doesn't she have a Beijing hukou." Yanzi was angry, and Tianbao said: "She happened to be born on this land, and it would be the same if it were you." "The person who gets on the bus first, of course has the right to yell at you, and the grocery shopping is still first-come-first-served." I defended Connie, and the swallow was still chattering, and I threatened, "You fucking chatter endlessly." Now, pay for it yourself, get out!" Yanzi grabbed Xu Dakuan's hand: "Brother Xu bought it for me, is it Brother Xu?" Drunk-eyed Xu Dakuan, who was called out of his seniority, was swayed triumphantly: "Uncle Xu—Brother Xu buys it, Brother Xu buys it. Don't be afraid of him!" At midnight, I was so drunk that I could not wait to get under the covers.I cheered up and paid 3,000 yuan, and I still feel distressed.As soon as I got in the car, Yanzi yelled to go to Guijie Street for supper, and I yelled: "Give you some sunshine and you'll be brilliant, give you some alcohol and you'll be cheap, and you're not afraid of being overwhelmed—are you a buffalo or an elephant? Huh? I shouldn’t have invited you here, it’s ruining China.” "It's not fun to call people over from a long distance, and it's not at your expense." Yanzi also yelled, and asked Xu Dakuan as if suing him, "Brother Xu, do you think so?" Yanzi pushed Xu Dakuan who was sitting in the front seat, and even the driver said it was hard to see such a "personal" woman.Xu Dakuan was shaken so dizzy that he turned drunk and dreamy, he laughed and agreed to her.When the swallow saw that it had succeeded, it barked its teeth and claws for joy, wrapped one arm around me, and the other around Hu Meng, and tried to stop them together. The three heads touched each other, and the pain made my eyes pop.I yelled: "Hergia! Are you crazy?" "The wild is untamable, the wild is untamable." Xu Dakuan chuckled. Swallow immediately ordered the driver to drive to Guijie. Gui Street, a street of "ghost food", is located in Dongzhimen. There are hundreds of large and small restaurants, and the more lively it is at night.Starved ghosts, ghosts, monsters, monsters and monsters came from all directions, crying and howling, and gorged themselves, then whizzed away.Yanzi prefers Jiwei shrimp. We ordered a few catties, and we ate some sporadically. We watched her tirelessly peel and drink, and my eyelids would fight from time to time.Hu Meng joked with Swallow: "Look at how awesome you are, a billionaire, a poet, and a writer accompany you for supper." Xu Dakuan said: "That's right, they are all 'accompanied'." Swallow snorted: "He is still a star—a future star." I complained: "Come on, just you, 'Three Star' and 'Rising Star' are not counted, just a 'Double Star'—Sangmen Star plus Saomo Star." As usual, Yanzi asked the rescuers: "Brother Xu, he always bullies his little sister." Xu Dakuan scolded me with a smile: "That's right, it's outrageous, brother should love his sister, and live with his girlfriend." 他的怪异普通话再次引起了一阵哄堂大笑，赶走了一丝倦意。回到“长城宾馆”已凌晨两点多了，我躺着洗了个热水澡，安然就寝。 早晨我去敲许达宽的门提醒他吃早饭，他隔着门说肠胃不好，让我自己去。当我从餐厅饱餐而归，惊奇地发现，燕子从许达宽的房间出来，匆匆离去。不知道是刺骨的严寒、三里屯的酒精、簋街的宵夜还是燕子难以填满的身体，许达宽虚脱了。面对二百元标准的丰盛早餐，他一点食欲也没有，居然想吃四川酸辣粉。这堂堂五星级宾馆压根就没那玩意，只好去我“家”，他让随从留下。到了我那狭小的蜗居，一看大吃一惊：“天呐，你就住这地方？” “不瞒您说，这已经是迄今为止我在北京的最高水平啦。”我说，“我几个月前住的地下室——就是和燕子的同居地，霉得浑身起冬瓜霜，就差生根发芽啦。” “那你在这儿混个啥名堂？还不如回靀城，我喊办公室给你安排一下。” “谢谢关心了，人有时候就是需要犯点贱。”我说，“我是在做生存实验呢。” 吃酸辣粉时，许达宽的北京朋友来电话说送他去天津的车已到宾馆，许让他开到附近的农业部门口。远远看见一辆黑色“大奔”缓缓开来，刚洗过，贼亮贼亮的。许达宽说他一口气又买了几辆车，大奔宝马越野商务大巴都有。许达宽坚持自己开车去，司机把钥匙交给我，拿出地图告诉我们路线，就打车走了。我一溜坐进了驾驶室，许达宽疑惑地看着我：“你——？有法吗？” “当然啊。”我拿出驾照给他看，又说，“你不太舒服，眼圈都红了。再说，哪有大老板亲自开车的啊？” 他觉得有道理，就坐进了副驾位。我激动不安地束好安全带，琢磨了一会司机的话，又打开地图研究了一阵。自从考过驾照后我在靀城几乎没摸过车，更别说在北京了。小心翼翼地发动了车，手忙脚乱起来，动作僵硬，脑门冒汗，比考驾照时还狼狈。汽车轰地向前一耸，吓了许达宽一跳：“你行不行啊？” “手有点潮，没事。”我故作镇静。车子上了路，许达宽提醒我踩离合器、换档。穿过长虹桥左转汇入东三环，放松了一些。很快到了漫长的京广桥，看着四周丛林般的高楼大厦和脚手架，我说：“咋样？这里还是比靀城牛逼吧？来北京搞房地产吧。” 许达宽说：“四川的活都忙不过来呢。” 我从分钟寺桥出南三环，直行一段汇入南四环边的十八里店桥，通过大羊坊桥后继续朝东南方向前行，我们像摊大饼一样驶过一片一片区域，不久融入京津塘高速。道路笔直，豁然开朗，“大奔”风驰电掣起来。我们的首站是塘沽经济开发区。一路上，许达宽电话不停，他一会操靀城话一会操普通话，笑得车里充满了胃里冒出来的酸辣粉味儿。我笑：“生意再做大点就要操英语了。” 许达宽笑：“我是不行了，就看儿子了。” “华娃子还好吧？”我想起他上中学的儿子，多年前我给他补习过英语。 “调皮啊，人还没发育完整，雀雀上毛还没长齐，嘢，泡起妞来了。” “有其父必有其子嘛。”我说，许达宽呵呵大笑，忽然问我：“你和燕子真的没事？” “当然，我烦死她了。” “你不老实，她啥都跟我说了。” “啥意思？”我一惊。他看着我一脸坏笑：“为了二百块办暂住证的钱——还有一包烟，枪都架起了，子弹都上了膛了，准心都瞄好了，又卡壳了。我没编故事吧？” “这枕头风吹得舒服啊！”我讪讪地笑笑，反将了他一军。许达宽笑而不语，鼾声如雷。 进入塘沽境就遇到在此恭候的一个地方官员和投资商，两辆“奔驰”驶进当地最好的“泰达”酒店，接风宴席已经摆开，此后两天是一轮又一轮的腐败生活，差点动摇我的人生信念。
