The reporters asked Tan Jing a few more questions, but they were all eliminated by his magic of "transferring flowers and trees". By the end of the press conference, the most valuable news the reporters had obtained was the formation of the National Olympic Team.

Even so, the reporters' questions about the shortlisted players did not receive direct answers.

When the press conference ended, it was already dark. After saying goodbye to several vice chairmen, Tan Jing got into his black Audi A6 and sped away, leaving behind a group of reporters staring at the back of the car in a daze.

Winter in Yanjing is usually very windy, but today there was not even a trace of wind. The only wind that raised dust on the roadside was the black Audi passing by.

After all, women are different from men. They are emotional animals. Tan Jing sat in the car, constantly thinking about everything that happened at the press conference. Although there were many ways to break the cage that Yang Yimin tried to set for her, she couldn't swallow it in her heart.

On Jinling Sports Road, opposite the gate of the Provincial Gymnasium and less than 20 meters away from the Aoyuan sporting goods store that Shen Bin’s family has sold, there is a local restaurant. The restaurant has hung a sign since noon saying "Today’s reservation, no individual customers accepted"

The TV in the hall was playing "Legend of the Swordsman". Compared with Wang Yuyan in "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils", Liu Yifei's acting skills seemed to have improved significantly. Although Wang Yuyan was beautiful, she was too cold and had no girlish feeling. In contrast, Zhao Linger's youthfulness was more worldly.

But at this time, no one appreciated the infinite charm of the Fairy Sister. It was the first time for the neighbors to gather together in a year and a half, and everyone was busy with their own affairs.

Fatty Wang, who originally managed the canteen in the factory, was allocated two two-story shops after the demolition. He also rented three rooms from Li Meng's family and opened a medium-sized local restaurant.

Shen Bin originally wanted to host the dinner at Jinling Hotel, but he followed Li Zhenyu's advice and decided to host the dinner at Fatty Wang's place. According to District Chief Li, it felt more like home there.

Originally, Shen Yuanchao had drawn up a list of five tables, but later someone leaked the news and by five in the afternoon the number of people had increased to eight tables. More and more people were still coming to join in the fun, so Shen Yuanchao simply told Fatty Wang to use all twelve tables in the restaurant.

This morning, Fatty Wang sent the chef home on holiday and left all the work to the women from his old neighborhood, whose home-cooked meals were more to the old man's taste.

With so many people added, Fatty Wang and his wife, as well as seven or eight women with good skills, were kept busy.

The children ran to the door to set off firecrackers, and some played hide-and-seek, just like during the Chinese New Year.

His little face was red from the cold, his snot was almost running into his mouth, but he just hid in the corner without saying a word. If it had been a few decades earlier, he would have been an expert at ambushing.

The men took their poker cards and set up five or six card tables in the house and yard.

They were playing the local specialty of throwing eggs with a lot of noise, shouting at the top of their lungs. Those who didn't know thought they were fighting, and those who didn't get a turn just stood by and made a noise, making the scene very lively.

Most women with average skills gather in groups of three or four to chat.

It mainly shares gossip, interesting stories and the latest news of friends and relatives. Sometimes the woman is having an affair, sometimes the man is running away due to debts, and the worst is that the couple in that family had a fight in the middle of the night and kept swearing at each other for two hours.

Shen Bin did not join in the excitement of the three legions. He had his own circle. He sat on the second-floor balcony with Li Meng, Zhang Feng and a bunch of young people, chatting about their recent developments over the past year while cracking melon seeds and enjoying themselves.

It is January 23rd, and the New Year is just over a dozen days away. Shen Bin and his son will not have the opportunity to celebrate the Spring Festival with their old neighbors. The Dutch league will restart in three days, so this is also a way to wish their uncles and aunts a happy new year in advance.

Although his mother left him and went to the United States, Shen Bin's grandparents are still alive. They live in the countryside, but they have kept in touch. Although his grandparents are embarrassed to spend more time with Shen Yuanchao because of his mother, Shen Yuanchao still went to the countryside today to pick up the whole family.

Compared with the sparsely populated Shen family, the Liu family is large and powerful. Shen Bin's mother has two older brothers and two older sisters. As the youngest in the family, she has been spoiled by her family since she was a child, which has led to her vain character. She was the only one in the family who was admitted to a technical secondary school. After graduation, she was assigned to work as a cashier in the finance office of the factory where Shen Yuanchao worked. Later, with the help of the factory director Li Zhenyu, she married Shen Yuanchao, who was the workshop director at the time.

After the factory director went bankrupt, Li Zhenyu, as an in-system cadre, was first transferred to the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection as office director, and was later assigned to Xuanwu District as district mayor. A few days ago, Shen Bin, through Gao Haiyang's relationship, went to Yanjing to visit Gao Haiyang's father-in-law, Mr. Meng.

At Li Zhenyu's stage, the previous step was to become a cadre under the central government. More than 95% of them would be blocked at this level. Without connections above, it would be difficult for them to be seen by the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee.

Shen Yuanchao was not as lucky as Li Zhenyu. He was working as a worker, and the factory went bankrupt. He was no different from ordinary workers and was laid off.

It was during this period that mother Liu Mei could no longer live with the father and son, so she abandoned them and ran away to the United States with the former sales manager of the factory. It was said that the sales manager took a lot of kickbacks while in office, and on the eve of being investigated by Li Zhenyu, he abducted the factory beauty Liu Mei, and lost contact with her since then.

Shen Bin's grandparents felt sorry for their uncle, and often gave their newly harvested agricultural and sideline products to the father and son during the most difficult times, so the relationship between the two families was not as hostile as people imagined.

There are five sisters in the Liu family, and Shen Bin has seven cousins, some of whom are already married. The annual New Year's party is very lively.

But since Li Mei abandoned her husband and children, Shen Yuanchao has never been there again. This is the first time they have been together for more than ten years. Shen Bin and his cousins ​​have become quite unfamiliar with each other, so he did not come here.

Just then there was a commotion outside. Shen Bin stretched his head and looked out the window, only to see an RV parked on the side of the road. Shen Bin recognized this car, as it was the car of Fan Xiaopang, who was entangled with him.

A group of people were surrounding Fan Bingbing to watch the show, and the situation seemed to be out of control. Shen Bin was really helpless and had to go downstairs to pick up this shameless "good sister".

Shen Bin has also been paying attention to some domestic news during this period. Just over ten days ago, a big scandal broke out in the entertainment industry. I don’t know what this "good sister" was thinking. Since the scandal with Leonardo DiCaprio, this guy has completely let himself go. In order to compete for the heroine of "Apple" and the opportunity to cooperate with the legendary actor Tony Leung Ka Fai in the Chinese entertainment industry, he did not hesitate to worship Sammo Hung as his godfather.

Unfortunately, due to its excessive scale, "Apple" not only failed to be released in China, but also may be banned.

Fan Bingbing is having a really hard time right now. Netizens’ public opinion is okay, but the relevant media are one-sided. The most crucial thing is the fate of the official media, and it seems that they will stay away from the entertainment industry from now on.

Not only did it lose endorsements from several major brands including Coca-Cola, but a group of mainstream rivals also began to take advantage of the situation.

In another ten years, if the trend continues like this, it will be basically the same as being forgotten. Few people will be able to make a comeback. Tang Wei is the best example.

Even now when conditions are more relaxed, Fan Bingbing is in danger, otherwise a group of people would not have publicly distanced themselves from him and many of his partners would not have started to avoid him.

Shen Bin was actually quite worried about Fan Bingbing's experience. Although he no longer had the same feelings for her as before, she was his first woman after all, and his thoughts were full of good memories.
