On January 15, Yanjing welcomed its first snowfall in 2004.
Fine snowflakes were falling, and the cold air suddenly dropped the temperature in the entire Sijiu City.
In the ice and snow, a stream of people gathered at Yanjing International Hotel, where the first annual meeting of Han and Tang culture was held.
"Is everyone here? If anyone is absent, hurry up!"
Zhong Lifang stood in the banquet hall, commanding and dispatching vigorously, her eyes passing over the people at the tables.
"President Lu and President Gao are here."
Chang Jihong was in a hurry and called Yang Mi, Jing Tian, Liu Shishi and other artists to the door to greet them.
Love reading books
"Brother Fei! Sister Yuanyuan!"
Jing Tian jumped and waved, showing an innocent smile.
"Oh, little Tiantian, your mouth is so sweet."
Lu Fei pinched her cheek, which was soft and delicate, and handed the red envelope over with a smile: "The first one is for you!"
"Hehe, thank you Brother Fei."
Jing Tian stood up after bending down, looked back and said with a smile: "Senior Sister, Sister Mimi!"
"The second portion~"
Lu Fei looked left and right, his eyes flowing between the quiet Master Liu and the excited Yang Mi, and handed it to the former: "Young, the special eye training is effective, your eyes are a bit brighter."
Yang Mi felt as if she had been poured cold water on her face. She looked at her "good" best friend resentfully and saw a shy smile on her face. She was so flattered that she blushed at the base of her ears. She felt very unhappy.
Obviously I came here first, obviously I got to know each other first, obviously we have the closest relationship...
While she was thinking wildly, Lu Fei handed the third red envelope in front of her and said, "Hey, it's yours."
"Thank you, senior."
Yang Mi raised her hand, deliberately slowing down her movements, pouting and shaking her head, almost touching her face.
Lu Fei picked up the red envelope and patted her moving head gently, "What are you doing? Are you guilty?"
Yang Mi covered her mouth with her hand, leaned over and whispered: "Senior, look at my face. Is it round and not that square?"
Lu Fei nodded, making her smile happily for a moment, but the next second he sighed: "Master's eyes have only improved, why have you regressed? What eyes, such a square face, how can you look like Round face?”
Yang Mi was slightly PUA-induced, curled her lips and said: "How is that possible? I have been doing facial massage for more than a year, more than a year!"
"You can't change it, you're born with it. Isn't it good to be square?"
Lu Fei had a wicked smile on his face. Although the ruthless blow was cruel, he felt an inexplicable evil pleasure in his heart.
Especially when Yang Mi fell into deep self-doubt, Gao Yuanyuan couldn't bear it, "She's just a child, don't say that to her!"
Lu Fei stopped playing around and handed out red envelopes to Miss Gao seriously. When they were sent to Zhong Lifang, he asked, "Is Ning Hao here?"
"Here he is, just sit there while I call him over?"
After Zhong Lifang got a positive answer, Ning Hao came trotting back with her back arched and called "Mr. Lu".
Lu Fei smiled and said: "It's Chinese New Year, don't be too little if you are a little careful."
"Hehe, how can that be impossible!" Ning Hao secretly pinched it, at least a thousand thickness, and his whole face grinned like a lotus flower.
Lu Fei took him out alone and found a secluded place. "Yuanyuan told me that you were very confused after filming "Incense"."
you do not say!
Ning Hao instantly lowered his face, looking like a bitter gourd. He had planned to shoot "Green Grass" and waited for the Han and Tang Dynasties to spend money.
Inexplicably, I stopped filming "The Big Diamond" instead. You said that I have only made one movie and I am a director of artistic films. How can I make a commercial film?
No such ability! It’s better to hire someone else!
Lu Fei was not annoyed at all, "If you were asked to film "Green Grass", what would be your next plan?"
Ning Hao blurted out: "Of course it's an international film festival, whether it's Berlin, Cannes, or Venice. I can do it. As long as I can sell the film and not make Han and Tang lose money, I don't care whether I win an award or not."
Lu Fei teased: "Don't you want to win a few awards? Like Zhang Yimou and Chen Kai, they will glorify the film festival and become famous overseas?"
"Hey, to tell you the truth, I am just a bastard. I make movies to earn a living. I don't have that big ambition to be an artist. If it weren't for the film festival market, I really wouldn't care about going abroad."
Ning Hao waved his hand: "Western film festivals, especially the three major ones, are all products of the Cold War and have nothing to do with my film values."
"It's over now, so what's there to worry about? Literary films can't save the Chinese film industry. From now on, the world will definitely be dominated by commercial films!"
Lu Fei patted him on the shoulder, "Chinese-language literary and artistic films don't lack you, Ning Hao, but commercial films may not lack you, Ning Hao."
Ning Hao felt that it made sense and was speechless for a moment.
If before chatting with Mr. Lu, I was at a crossroads wondering whether to take the familiar art path or the unknown business path, at this moment, Mr. Lu was shining brightly, turning into a beam of righteous light on the road.
"Then Mr. Lu, will I make a commercial film?"
"Louder, I can't hear you."
"Mr. Lu, I want to make a commercial film!"
Ning Hao was like Mitsui who said, "Coach, I want to play basketball." His eyes were blazing and he said, "Make my movie "Big Diamond"!"
After his passion burned, he smiled and said, "Mr. Lu, do you want to read the script now? I'll take it with me."
Lu Fei interrupted: "Yuanyuan told me the rough outline. The story is pretty good and quite darkly humorous. How much will it cost to film it?"
Ning Hao weakly stretched out four fingers and said: "4 million RMB."
Lu Fei raised his eyebrows: "How much?"
Ning Hao shrank his head and retracted a finger: "It's not like 3 million or 3 million can't be taken."
Lu Fei said with a straight face: "Only 3 million? How can you save the coal boss? Liu Qijin is not short of this money! Say it boldly."
Ning Hao scratched his head and made an "8" gesture with one hand, "Eight or eight million, that's enough."
Lu Fei rolled his eyes with a disappointed look on his face: "Oh, is this all you want? I gave you a chance, but you're useless."
Not only did Ning Hao not feel the slightest insult, he was also elated. The second movie had an investment of 8 million, and he was already the best in his class at Nortel. Insult?
If this is considered an insult, please Mr. Lu just insult me 10 more times!
"And if you change the name, what does "Big Diamond" mean?"
Lu Fei smacked his lips, "Saw" abroad, "Crazy Stone" domestically, Han and Tang culture, it's time.

The New Year has come to a close and the Spring Festival travel season is at its peak.
In previous years, whether in another place or locally, people would buy New Year's goods in large quantities and then bring them back to their hometown in large and small packages.
Nowadays, with the indiscriminate bombardment of many e-commerce companies such as Feigou.com over the years, except for live animals and dry goods, if you can find them on e-commerce, you will definitely buy them online.
Even if they want to buy from a physical store, many people don’t need to take it all the way home and go directly to Zhongtong Logistics.
After SARS, it can hardly be said to be a high-speed development, it is simply a super-fast development. After the first batch of logistics bases in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Yanjing, and Shanghai, the second batch of logistics bases in North jaw and eastern Guangdong have been completed and put into operation. One in Jiangnan The period is half done.
Money is not like money, it burns like fire and flows like water, but money is spent wisely.
Across the country, across the country, more and more people's consumption habits and concepts have changed. To put it simply, it has gradually become the shape of Feigou.com, or rounded off, it is the shape of Mr. Lu's leek.
And the "accomplice" Liu Yidong finally emerged after years of media exposure, and gained a lot at the end of the year——
"Liu Edong was selected as one of the top ten financial figures in China's economic circles by the Financial Times in 2003. Liu Edong, who is just 30 years old, has undergone earth-shaking changes after joining Feigou.com. How can golden scales be just a thing in a pond? He will turn into a dragon when encountering a storm. , he fought his way to the top amidst the swords and shadows of the Chinese e-commerce faction..."
"Liu Godong was selected as a candidate for the 'New Talent Award' in the 2003 CCTV China Economic Figure of the Year Selection, competing with Shanda Chen Tianqiao, Penguin Lu Huateng, and Baidu Li Yanhong."
"You can still innovate under pressure and break out of ordinary situations. Who was the most influential person in China's economy in 2003? Who provided us with new economic thinking in 2003? Which entrepreneurs overcame difficulties and emerged suddenly?
The 2003 CCTV China Economic Figure of the Year has been selected. There are 20 candidates for the Economic Figure of the Year and 4 candidates for the annual individual award. Who will have the last laugh? The answer will be announced on the 18th..."
On the TV, Yangma's three economic channels were played loudly.
"Xiaojing, cheers!"
Liu Edong's face was glowing, he was in high spirits on happy occasions, and he raised his glass of wine towards his beloved fiancée.
"One last drink."
Gong Xiaojing raised her neck and took a sip, her cheeks flushed, "Should I go to pay Mr. Lu a happy New Year this year? I haven't gone before. Let's go and visit him this year?"
Liu Edong waved his hand: "Mr. Lu is annoyed by this the most. He wants to be quiet during the Chinese New Year. If he really wants to visit us, he has to wait for him to come in person."
"How is this great? We are where we are today thanks to him."
Gong Xiaojing mentioned not only their love, but also their own future.
Because of Mr. Lu's little opinions and a few internal references, she became the fastest-promoted rocket cadre in Yanjing. She was already a deputy researcher at the Policy Research Division of the Housing Reform Office, and she was only in her early 30s.
What's more, Liu Edong's future.
Liu Edong patted his chest and said, "Thank you. I'll thank you in person when we get to the award ceremony. Mr. Lu is probably busy handing out wedding candies at the moment."
Gong Xiaojing stood up and said, "Let's go to the bedroom."
"It's only around 7 o'clock, so early?" Liu Edong was startled. He didn't dare to do anything like that.
"What are you thinking about? Go try on the new clothes I bought for you and wear them to attend the award ceremony."
Gong Xiaojing secretly spat and walked straight into the bedroom. There were two brand new black suits lying flat on the bed.
Liu Edong shook his head: "I don't think you should try it. Just pick whatever you want. I'm definitely not going to win the Young Talent Award or the Economic Figure Award anyway."
"Is this still the Dong brother I know, so insecure?" Gong Xiaojing comforted. "What if I win the prize..."
"Do you have inside information?"
Liu Edong knows in his heart that the so-called netizen voting only focuses on participation, and what is given to you by the above is yours.
"I don't know, but I can guess a few."
Gong Xiaojing raised her chin and confidently said that according to the quota allocation of previous awards ceremonies, it was clear at a glance how the cake was cut in various fields and positions, including state-owned enterprise executives, government officials, private entities, Internet companies, economic experts, etc.
"Like Ding Sanshi, who became the richest man in Mainland China through the Internet, there must be someone like him, like Wen Tiejun, who dealt with the rural issues... Mengniu's Niu Gensheng, Lianxiang's Liu Chuanzhi, and Mr. Lu, he will definitely win the award!"
"Absolutely. The netizens voted first. Mr. Lu won't win no prize this time, but several."
Liu Edong was both envious and admired. Lu Fei was not only among the top 10 economic figures, but also a candidate for the Social Welfare Award and the Annual Award.
Gong Xiaojing started to tie her tie: "I guess two."
"3, must be 3!"
Liu Edong said it categorically. After all, SARS donation, Hanxin's shady story, double killing of Samsung, Double Eleven Shopping Festival, Fuxin Semiconductor...
Who can compete with Mr. Lu? Not only is he tall, he is also extremely tough!
…………
That night, the Yangma Building was brightly lit.
In the deputy director's office, Gao Feng was surprised to receive a call from Lu Fei. He was even more surprised to learn that he was running for the 2003 CCTV China Economic Person of the Year selection. He originally thought he was eager to win the award and wanted to collect information from himself, who was in charge of the cultural channel. ——
"I am very convinced that the annual award is awarded to Zhang Qingwei. The Shenzhou 5 can be successful because of his great efforts. Who else will win it if he doesn't win it."
"Mr. Lu, do you think you shouldn't get this award?"
"Of course, this award must be awarded to someone who has made great achievements in the country. Billions of stars are more romantic than billions of banknotes."
"Mr. Lu is really honorable, but I can't make the decision in this matter. How about I give you the phone number of Lao Xiao from the financial channel?"
Gao Feng couldn't tell for a moment whether he was telling the truth or a lie, whether he was sincerely refusing or hinting at a reward.
Lu Fei did not answer and continued to refuse in every possible way, and then said that Xiong Deming was the most suitable person for the annual social welfare award, because her "truth" made the whole society focus on the arrears of wages of migrant workers. Since then, it has become a priority for the government not to delay the payment of migrant workers' wages. The most important thing.
Compared with them, I am just a humble social instrument.
After talking for a while, Gao Feng was definitely sure that Mr. Lu was serious, and he understood in his heart that he wanted to convey it to him.
He neither agreed nor objected, his attitude was ambiguous.
"Don't worry, Mr. Lu, you have to believe in the credibility and authority of the Central Government, and we will never go against the expectations and wishes of the broad masses of the people. The candidates selected can not only convince the public, but also be typical benchmarks and figures for representatives..."
Balabala, it's a bunch of nonsense. I finally got an answer after hanging up the phone. I will talk to the leaders of Yangma and the Economic Channel.
"Wouldn't it be over if I said that earlier? It would be a waste of my feelings."
Lu Fei curled his lips and saw Gao Yuanyuan in front of him wearing pajamas, with wet hair hanging on his shoulders, "The hot water has been put for you, go and wash it."
"okay!"
"I just heard that you wanted to withdraw from the election. Why?"
"It's not about withdrawing from the election, it's about giving in. Because I have a clean heart, I don't have anything to do with myself, only national affairs."
"to be honest!"
"The truth is..."
