Movie: Get Alpha Dog at the start

Chapter 1116 What the hell are you thinking?
"Aunt, I won't be having the New Year's Eve dinner at home."

Huang Ling stopped cutting vegetables and asked with concern: "What's wrong? Does your company have to work overtime during the New Year?"

Xiang Pengfei smiled and said, "No, my mother called and asked me to go to the Zhuang family for the New Year's Eve dinner."

Huang Ling frowned when she heard this: "I never asked you to go to the New Year's Eve dinner before."

"Maybe he knows that I'm making money from my job now." Xiang Pengfei sneered.

Seeing Huang Ling's worried face, Xiang Pengfei comforted her, "Don't worry, aunt. I'm not your uncle. Back then, my mother knelt on the ground and begged them to let me sleep on the table, but they refused. Now they want me to hand over my salary to them just like my uncle by asking me to have a New Year's Eve dinner."

"I want to fart."

On New Year’s Eve, everyone in the bank is carefully preparing a sumptuous dinner.

As a result, the moment Xiang Pengfei walked in, the whole family's faces turned dark.

Zhuang Zhenbei said sarcastically, "Pengfei, I heard that you bought mink coats for all the unrelated people. Why did you come to our house empty-handed?"

Xiang Pengfei said innocently, "My mother called and just asked me to come over for the New Year's Eve dinner. She didn't ask me to bring anything."

Mr. and Mrs. Zhuang were so angry that their faces turned green, but when they thought of Xiang Pengfei's salary, they could only put on a kind smile to smooth things over.

"We are all family, so there is no need to be so particular. Come on, Pengfei, sit here."

Grandma Zhuang took Xiang Pengfei's hand and pulled him to the position where Zhuang Ganmei was supposed to be.

After Xiang Pengfei sat down, he still acted cute: "Grandma, it's inappropriate for me to sit here. In the past, I was satisfied as long as I could sit at the table."

"Hey, it doesn't matter where you sit." Grandma Zhuang said with an awkward smile.

The two brothers Zhendong and Zhenbei were driven to the two seats farthest from the delicious food with resentful faces.

Mr. Zhuang even poured Xiang Pengfei a glass of wine: "Pengfei, Dad is here to congratulate you on finding a good job. In the past, this was considered a great success."

"Yes, Pengfei, you have made great progress now. Don't forget to take care of your family. It's not good enough if only one person is well. It's really good only if everyone is well." Grandma Zhuang said with a smile on her face.

When Zhuang Chaoying saw this scene, he felt as if he was back to the day when he first started working. His parents also told him the same thing.

Xiang Pengfei raised a sneer at the corner of his mouth and said meaningfully: "Grandpa and grandma, don't worry. Although I, Xiang Pengfei, didn't get into college, I still know how to repay kindness. I will never forget who treats me well and who treats me badly."

In an instant, the atmosphere in the room fell to freezing point.

Mr. Zhuang angrily smashed the wine glass on the table, and the smile on Mrs. Zhuang's face froze.

Mr. and Mrs. Zhuang Ganmei lowered their heads guiltily.

Only Xiang Pengfei ate and drank to his heart's content, not treating himself as an outsider at all.

After a while, Grandma Zhuang put on a hypocritical smile again: "Pengfei, it's not that we didn't want to help you with some things in the past, it's really because of the limited conditions at home..."

"Grandma, I remember when I first came to Suzhou, your family had three bicycles. You were also the first in this area to buy a TV, right? And that dual-cassette recorder was also the only one in this area, right? You still call this limited conditions?"

Xiang Pengfei didn't fall for it and just went straight in and used his ultimate skill.

Grandma Zhuang was so embarrassed that she didn't know how to refute for a moment.

Mr. Zhuang was so angry that he slammed the table and said, "What kind of words are you talking about? How can you talk to your grandmother like that?"

Zhuang Chaoying hesitated for a moment and complained, "Pengfei, apologize to grandma quickly."

Xiang Pengfei smiled coldly: "Uncle, isn't what I said the truth? It seems that there is no reason to apologize for telling the truth in this world, right?"

Zhuang Chaoying was choked, and Master Zhuang flew into a rage: "You are rebelling! You are rebelling!"

Xiang Pengfei threw away the pork elbow that was gnawed to the bone and burped, "Grandpa and grandma, I know exactly what you are planning. You don't have to pretend to be kind. I have seen your dirtiest and most hypocritical side a long time ago."

"Get out, get out here. We don't want a grandson like you in our Zhuang family!" Grandpa Zhuang almost suffocated.

Xiang Pengfei patted the grease off his hands and smiled: "Right, this is your true colors. It's so tiring to pretend all the time."

After saying that, he stood up and walked away.

"Evil beast, evil beast, let's go, I'm going to call Hualin and ask her to teach me a lesson for this unfilial son!"

After saying this, Mr. Zhuang ran to the grocery store, but it was closed. He knocked on the door and called Zhuang Hualin.

As a result, after he vented his anger, Zhuang Hualin's tone on the other end of the phone was very calm.

"Dad, Pengfei is not a child anymore. He remembers everything you did to him. Do you regret it now?"

"late!"

After saying that, he hung up the phone. Mr. Zhuang had a mouthful of phlegm stuck in his throat, his eyes rolled back and he fainted.

When he woke up in the hospital, he kept muttering: Evil beasts, you are all a bunch of ungrateful wolves!

Zhuang Ganmei's wife grumbled, "I shouldn't have let him come to the New Year's Eve dinner. Now look what has happened. He ate up all the delicious food on the table. I didn't get a single bite. He also made Dad sick from anger. The whole family has to spend the New Year in the hospital."

Upon hearing this, Grandma Zhuang burst into tears: "Second son's wife, what are you talking about? Didn't you also covet Huang Ling's mink coat and Peng Fei's salary at the beginning?"

"Mom, I didn't say that. You said that. It's obviously you who is jealous."

Grandma Zhuang was so angry that her face turned red: "You evil creature, who am I doing this for? It's for my second son to get married, for Zhendong Zhenbei, and for this family."

"Mom, please stop crying. The nurse will come and tell you soon. If nothing else, I will go back. Zhendong and Zhenbei are still waiting at home. I have to go and watch them do their homework."

After saying that, she winked at her husband and rolled her eyes, "Mom, I have to go out for New Year's greetings tomorrow, so I have to go back and rest first. I'll ask you and my eldest brother to take care of Dad."

……

On the other side, Xiang Pengfei had already returned to the courtyard. The New Year's Eve dinner had not yet been finished. Huang Ling saw him coming back so early and quickly invited him to the table.

Xiang Pengfei didn't hesitate and sat down next to Huang Ling.

Zhuang Xiaoting asked cautiously: "Brother Pengfei, when you went to grandpa and grandma's house, did they give you any trouble?"

Xiang Pengfei said proudly, "You want to embarrass me? After I went there, I only ate the expensive ones. I ate both pork elbows."

Huang Ling was amused by him. When she thought of the scene where Xiang Pengfei ate to excess and Grandpa and Grandma Zhuang dared not say anything, she felt relieved. In fact, she had wanted to do this for a long time, but she had always been concerned about Zhuang Chaoying's face.

"Then what?" Zhuang Tunan frowned. In his impression, his grandparents never did business at a loss.

"Then, their implicit meaning was that they wanted me to be filial to them, but I just pushed them back." Xiang Pengfei said disdainfully.

"Before my mother took me back to Suzhou, my grandparents said something very unpleasant, saying that my in-laws' family was not well off and should not bring trouble to my mother's family, and that they should bring outsiders to rely on my mother's family. Today, when I went there, someone at the door asked me if I was a grandson or a grandson-in-law, but my grandmother said that they were all grandsons and grandsons, and they were all members of our Zhuang family."

"They thought that if they said a few nice words, I would become close to them and take care of them in their old age like my uncle."

"I want to fart."

This was the second time today that Huang Ling heard Xiang Pengfei say the three words "you want something?" She didn't find it vulgar, but instead felt more relieved each time.

The end of the Chinese New Year also heralded the official arrival of 1988. Qin Hao and Li Jia returned to work early, while Zhuang Tunan returned to school with Lin Dongzhe and Zhuang Xiaoting. Xiang Pengfei also returned to work on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year.

That day, Qin Hao received a call from Uncle Lin. He reported a problem to Qin Hao. The component suppliers that they had been cooperating with before had increased the prices of components since they resumed work after the Chinese New Year. And the increase was not ordinary. Some directly increased by 30%, and the lowest was 15%.
"Since the price of raw materials has increased, let's increase it too. From now on, you should use all the remaining money on your account to purchase raw materials to at least meet one year's production needs."

Qin Hao knew clearly that the rise in raw material prices was due to the gradual relaxation of price control by the higher authorities, which was the so-called "price breakthrough."

This "price breakthrough" involved all aspects, and the most intuitive feeling of the people was that the prices of vegetables and pork began to rise one after another.

Zhuang Tunan has encountered such a dilemma. In the past, he only needed to spend two days a month as a tutor to meet his daily living expenses. Now it takes at least three days. Moreover, if prices continue to rise as they have been trending, Zhuang Tunan doubts whether he can support himself.

In order not to worry their parents, Lin Dongzhe and Zhuang Xiaoting used their weekends to sell plastic bags, which really made them a lot of money. However, they were sometimes caught by market managers with red bands and their plastic bags were confiscated.

Zhuang Tunan did not forget to call Huang Ling and told her to stock up on daily necessities, but Huang Ling said that Qin Hao had already called her in advance.

"Haozi started a company with Uncle Lin. When the raw materials went up in price, he realized something was wrong and called Song Ying. Now our house is filled with all kinds of daily necessities, enough for us to use for a while."

"At first I thought it was too far-fetched and there was no need to stock up so much. But now, even toilet paper and matches have gone up in price. The unsalable fabrics in our factory have been sold out. The price of wool has also gone up. I can't buy wool recently and I can't take orders for knitting sweaters."

It's crazy, everything is crazy. There are always children queuing up at the store entrance. Once the goods are in stock, they immediately run back to inform the adults at home to rush to buy them. In the atmosphere of fear that "money is becoming less and less valuable", everything sold in the store is sold out before it is even put on the shelves.

The news of rising prices soon spread to schools. Originally, Zhuang Chaoying's monthly salary of 100 yuan was not only enough for his living, but he could also give half of it to his family. But now, it is only enough for his expenses.

Therefore, Zhuang Chaoying had no choice but to go home and discuss with his parents why he would not hand in his salary recently. However, he was scolded by his grandparents.

"Your salary alone is not enough, what are you going to do with two children at home?"

"Yes, Chaoying, you should save money in your daily life. If you really can't afford it, you can set up a stall to sell tea eggs. I see many teachers in your affiliated high school do this."

Zhuang Chaoying was speechless for a moment and could only continue to "pay tribute" silently.

But even so, the Zhuang family members were not satisfied. Every time they ate, they would curse Xiang Pengfei at the table.

"A daughter who is married off is like water spilled. People with other surnames are unreliable. If I had known, I should not have given birth to Hualin. I have raised her for so many years in vain."

At the end of April, Qin Hao received news from the chess academy that the Fujitsu Cup auditions had ended and the main competition would begin in mid-May. An invitation letter also completely exposed Qin Hao.

"Oh, it turns out that Xiao Qin is the world champion of Go."

"Tsk tsk, there is actually such a person in our unit."

The reason why time is so tight is that the Japanese Chess Institute has been analyzing Qin Hao's game videos for a long time. They discovered a habit of Qin Hao when playing chess, so they set up a new rule specifically for this habit.

The Fujitsu Cup attracted the attention of many people in China, Japan and South Korea, especially Japan. They were eager to see the Japanese player defeat Qin Hao and avenge his previous defeat in the first World Go Championship.

However, what made them depressed was that in the early stages of the game, Qin Hao was still unstoppable, defeating players from Japan and South Korea in succession and becoming the first to enter the quarterfinals.

In the quarterfinals, Qin Hao met Korean chess player Cho Hunhyun, who is known as the number one Go player in Korea and had an outstanding performance in this Fujitsu Cup.

Many Japanese chess fans came to the competition site to cheer for Cho Hunhyun. On the one hand, because the pressure Qin Hao brought to Japanese Go was too strong, Japanese chess fans hoped that Cho Hunhyun could perform beyond his level and defeat Qin Hao, clearing the obstacles for Japanese players to win the championship. On the other hand, Cho Hunhyun once worshipped Seko Ken as his teacher. In the eyes of Japanese chess fans, Cho Hunhyun has a close relationship with them and is naturally closer to them than Qin Hao.

Unfortunately, the game was one-sided. Cho Hunhyun couldn't hold on in the middle stage and gave up, allowing Qin Hao to easily advance to the semi-finals.

Other Chinese players were not so lucky. Nie Weiping stumbled into the quarterfinals but was blocked by Kobayashi Koichi, and Ma Xiaochun did not even make it to the top 16.

In the semi-finals, Qin Hao faced Kobayashi Koichi and still won easily.

His opponent in the final was Masaki Takemiya, whom he had defeated twice.

On the day of the finals, the Japanese media were pessimistic, believing that it would be difficult for Masaki Takemiya to defeat Qin Hao and win the championship.

However, Masami Takemiya confidently told the camera that he had found Qin Hao's weakness.

Just before the start of the game, the Japan Chess Association added a rule when reading out the rules of the game, requiring both players to put their chess pieces into the chess box after picking them up before pressing the timer, otherwise it would be considered a foul.

Less than fifty moves into the game, Takemiya Masaki made a casual move, but Qin Hao took advantage of the opportunity and took the ball away.

Just as Takemiya Masaki was staring at Qin Hao's hand, he found that he casually threw the chess piece into the chess box and then pressed the timer.

This scene stunned many chess players of the Japan Chess Association.

You have to know that Go is an intellectual sport that requires very concentrated attention. Many players cannot hear someone calling them when they are playing Go.

The Japan Chess Institute had previously discovered that Qin Hao had the habit of playing with grapes in his hands, so they tailored a set of rules for him, and deliberately did not announce it until the last day of the finals. As a result, Qin Hao was able to notice this in such a high-intensity confrontation and changed his habit.

"This guy is simply not a human being!"

The "secret weapon" did not work, Takemiya Masaki's determination was broken, and he gave up after less than 180 moves. Qin Hao won the championship of the first Fujitsu Cup Go World Championship.

He also became the first professional Go player to hold the title of Go world champion.
