I became a poor little sophora japonica in the courtyard

Two days after Jingyi came back on the sixth day of the Chinese New Year, someone chased her from Beijing to Hong Kong. The biographical film "The Last Emperor" was jointly produced by Italy, Britain, Japan and the mainland. Director Bertolucci invited Lou Jingyi to play the leading female role in the play, Wanrong Guo.

This was Jingyi's first opportunity to enter the mainland film and television industry, and she agreed without even thinking about it. She packed up her things and returned to Sijiu City with Molly.

This is the first time that the mainland government has opened the gates of the Forbidden City for a movie. The mystery of the royal palace will soon be presented to the audience.

This was also the first time that the government had cooperated with the West to produce a film. The mainland organization mobilized a large number of extras and staff, totaling more than 17,000 people. The scene can be called magnificent. A British film company alone provided more than 23 million US dollars in production funds.

Originally, the mainland intended to let a well-known local female star play the role of Wanrong. However, the film companies in Italy, Britain and Japan wanted to promote this big-budget movie to the world. So they unanimously chose Lou Jingyi, who has a great influence in the world, and the local female star Cheng Chong could only play the second female role, Erdet Wenxiu.

The Chinese-American actor Zun Long plays Aixinjuelu Puyi. There are also a lot of Western characters in the play. During the filming, because the Forbidden City is too large and motor vehicles are not allowed to enter, everyone travels by bicycle.

Director Bertolucci spent four years preparing for this film, and the shooting alone took six months. The film is 163 minutes long when shown in mainland China and 219 minutes long when released overseas.

After the film was completed, it was released simultaneously at home and abroad, and immediately caused a huge response. That year, it won the Golden Globe Award, the British Academy Film Award, the European Film Award, the Japan Academy Award, the French Film César Award, and the Italian Film David Award.

At the 60th Academy Awards, this magnificent masterpiece won ten awards, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Screenplay, Best Cinematography, Best Costumes, Best Original Score, etc.

Lou Jingyi used her unique temperament to fully display the role of Empress Wanrong, and performed it to perfection. She was selected by the Oscar selection committee as the best actress in the 60th Academy Awards. She was crowned as a world-class actress.

In a short time, her fame reached a new height. This also made her feel troubled, and she even thought about quitting.

The directors of Xiangjiang Film Company would not dare to invite Lou Jingyi unless they had a big production. The Music Association did not dare to urge her to release songs, and let her make her own choice in the film and music industry.

New advertising endorsements were lined up, keeping Molly very busy. Fortunately, Tingting came to help as soon as she had given birth and was over the breastfeeding period, which immediately reduced Molly's burden.

This time, Warner Music Headquarters, relying on their previous cooperation, sent Bill the Bearded Man to join in the fun and invited Lou Jingyi to the North American Warner Headquarters to record and release another English song album!

It has been more than six years since I released my six-diamond album. It’s time to release another legendary album!

She went into the station space at night and sorted through the music scores that had been sorted out long ago. She listened to the albums of the big-name European and American singers of the new century and selected one or two songs from each person's famous album to make up the number for recording an album.

The quality of these songs is not inferior to her first English album recorded six years ago. They are also classic songs that will be passed down from generation to generation.

After practicing the song for two days in the station space, I went to the Warner branch in Hong Kong with the accompaniment and Bearded Bill. Two years ago, after Director Wu Zhenyuan divorced Lin Zhixiang, he was transferred back to the North American headquarters. Now the director of Warner is He Tuzhe.

Jingyi spent more than a week recording her second English album. Bill the Bearded Man was overjoyed and rushed back to the North American headquarters with the master tape.

Jingyi did not attend the Hong Kong Top Ten Chinese Golden Songs Awards Ceremony at the beginning of this year because she was participating in the CCTV Spring Festival Gala in mainland China.

With her song "Thousands of Songs", she won the Most Popular Female Singer Award. Indeed, Anita Mui's "Sunset Song" was no match for her.

So, she plans to stop releasing songs in the Hong Kong music scene. What's the point of winning all the awards?

The Shangri-La Hotel, located in the Haidian District of Beijing, has started its trial operation. The hotel is close to the financial district, the Summer Palace and the exhibition hall, and the location is also very good.

Zhang Tao and his wife have accepted the appointment from the group headquarters. One is the deputy general manager of the hotel and the other is the manager of the housekeeping department. In order to facilitate the couple's travel, the group headquarters also provided them with a car, a Cadillac sedan.

Since Jia Zhang's death, Qin Huairu's life has become more leisurely. She takes care of her three-year-old granddaughter at home. With financial support from Xiaodang and his wife, they are a wealthy family in the courtyard. This makes the neighbors really envious.

After a series of misfortunes at home, and with Banggeng serving his sentence, she and Shazhu became mutually dependent, allowing Shazhu to experience the care and happiness he had never experienced before.

From then on, she never mentioned her little daughter again, and even when neighbors talked about her, she pretended not to hear.

That day, Yu Li, who lived in the front yard, came over and asked Qin Huairu to borrow money. She said she wanted to do a big business, but she didn't have enough cash on hand.

Qin Huairu only looks glamorous on the surface, but actually she doesn't have much money. Xiaodang and his wife can only take care of her life, but can't let her make a fortune. Yu Li was immediately rejected!

Now, the two uncles in the courtyard are going to do something big! They are going to import a batch of large color TV sets. If they resell them, they can make a thousand yuan for each set.

The quantity of this batch of color TVs was so large that Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui gathered all their children. However, the money for purchasing was not enough, so they had to borrow money from everywhere.

Liu Haizhong got a business opportunity from his partner Xu Damao, who said there was a Sihai Trading Company in the north of the city that had a large number of imported color TVs for wholesale. The price was very favorable! He asked Liu Haizhong to contact the next buyer.

There was already a conflict between Liu Haizhong and Xu Damao because of the division of some interests. Liu Haizhong had been looking for an opportunity to get rid of Xu Damao, and he didn't want to cooperate with Xu Damao on this business anymore.

So after he found out the address of the company through various channels, he went to Sihai Trading Company alone. What he never expected was that the boss of Sihai Trading Company was Director Li from the former steel mill.

When Li Huaide saw Liu Haizhong, he was as enthusiastic as if they were old friends. Not only did he pull him aside to have a friendly chat, he also asked his secretary You Fengxia to find a high-end restaurant to book a table. He wanted to get drunk with his old friend! Liu Haizhong was flattered.

At the dinner table, Li Huaide learned that he came for the batch of color TV sets, and immediately said that he would give Liu Haizhong a discount of 200 yuan per set on top of the price he gave Xu Damao.

After a hearty meal and a few drinks, they returned to Sihai Trading Company, where Li Huaide took him to see samples of large color TVs.

"How about it? A 21-inch color TV imported from Xiaozizi. It costs 4,999 yuan in a big shopping mall, and you have to pay for the TV ticket. I'll give you a wholesale price of 3,500 yuan per unit. Even if you buy it for 4,500 yuan, you can still make a profit of 1,000 yuan per unit."

Seeing Liu Haizhong staring at the screen of the large color TV without blinking, Li Huaide knew that he was tempted and bewitched him.

Liu Haizhong had been eyeing this big color TV for a long time! The 25-inch color TV in Xu Damao's house earned him a lot of face. But he couldn't get a TV ticket, so he could only sigh in vain when looking at the color TV in the big shopping mall.

"Director Li, no! Boss Li. Can I buy one first to test the waters and see how it sells?" Liu Haizhong asked cautiously.

Liu Haizhong had no experience in reselling household appliances, so he wanted to buy one to use as a sample so that he could sell it in front of his neighbors.

"Old Liu! It's not that I don't agree, but I'm a wholesaler here. I can't break the company's rules! And it's container wholesale, one container is 90 units. I'm giving you the most favorable price, this is because we have been friends for decades. I have no trouble selling my goods!"

Li Huaide waved his hand and rejected his request. His goods could not be seen in public, and he had to run away after making a profit.

Seeing that Liu Haizhong was still hesitating, he continued to tempt him, "My goods are risk-free! I don't need your deposit. After you inspect the goods, you can pay and pick up the goods."

"Then I will go back to the company to prepare and ask the salesperson below to find customers in advance."

Liu Haizhong is now also dressed in a suit and tie, with a briefcase tucked under his elbow, looking like a boss. This momentum must be fully achieved!
