Who wants to take the civil service exam after being reborn?

Chapter 605 Who does he really love?
The ribbon-cutting ceremony only took half a day, but Zheng Weizhong stayed in Guangdong for a whole day and night.

The main reason was that the local government leaders and the university leaders were too enthusiastic, and their status was no less than mine, so I simply couldn't refuse their invitations.

However, it's also clear that those old guys at Sun Yat-sen University really value this student with impeccable political credentials.

He left in a hurry and returned in a hurry, without even having time to see Sweet Sister.

However, Song Xiaohua could understand that when accompanying leaders, one is often not in control of one's own destiny, and Song Zuomin was one such person.

Upon returning to the capital, all the problems suddenly disappeared, and the shackles that had been restricting them fell away.

At this point, the "Reply" evolved into Mundo, allowing people across the country to go wherever they wanted.

Yao Lan led her team to coordinate related work. During this period, Dr. Zeng Kun, Dr. Lü Hui, and You Hongtao, the deputy director of the electronics factory, also applied for network access licenses from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.

This license is no longer rare, and it is backed by the Guangdong Provincial Government, Sun Yat-sen University, and the covert support of the three major telecom operators.

Ten thousand customized phones also require network access qualifications, so with the help of Wang Guohua, Lu Yimin and Wang Xiaochu, Lao Zeng easily obtained the network access qualifications for the Youmi phone, just like queuing up to buy ice cream.

All I can say is that, looking back on the journey, I've met friends everywhere.

He had a showdown with Zheng Weizhong, which resulted in him making a lot of connections within the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.

Chen Zhe didn't focus on these specific tasks; he tackled the toughest challenges himself. If those below couldn't even handle these simple tasks, then they would have to be replaced.

The "Eight Academies Exchange Competition" is just around the corner, and the competition will officially begin tomorrow in the multi-functional exhibition hall of the Central Academy of Fine Arts.

Tong Lan, the dean of the Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts, also brought the other nine participating students to the capital.

However, apart from Tong Lan having dinner at the courtyard house, the other nine students had to stay in a hotel.

This is Professor Guan's personal space. If it weren't for Sister Cosplay, Chen Zhe and Wang Changhua wouldn't have been qualified to stay here at all.

Of course, the nine participating students also enjoyed good living conditions, staying in a five-star hotel and eating Peking duck at Quanjude under the guidance of another teacher. Hopefully, their performance tomorrow will also be "top-notch".

After cleaning up the kitchen, Xianmei planned to take out her drawing board to practice her drawing skills, but Professor Guan interrupted her.

"Go! Go! Go……"

The old lady urged him on, saying, "What's the point of studying at a time like this? Go for a walk, and don't hold a pen again tonight."

"Play hard during big exams, play a little during small exams, and don't play at all if there are no exams!"

Li Xianglan also chimed in with a smile, "The old lady has given the highest order, so Xianmei, why don't you go out for a stroll, or if that doesn't work, go shopping? In short, let your hands and your inspiration relax."

"Let's go to SKP."

The secretary excitedly suggested, "I heard that place is full of all kinds of goods; it's practically a woman's paradise."

“What’s the point of Yu Xian wearing luxury goods?”

Chen chuckled.

Xianmei is really suitable to be a wife. She has no interest in these things at all, but she can pull off any outfit. It's so infuriating!

"How about we go see a movie?"

Li Xianglan thought for a moment and said, "Wang Changhua and Wu Yu went to see 'Painted Skin' before, and their reaction was quite good."

"I didn't go with him on purpose; we just couldn't find him anywhere..."

Wu Yu tried to explain again in a low voice, but found that no one cared. She could only glare at Wang Changhua in frustration.

Wang Changhua covered her mouth and chuckled, then solemnly agreed, "I also think watching movies is better. Observing the light and shadow composition and the expressions of the characters on the big screen might be more useful than copying ten sketches. In Chen's words, this is called 'absorbing artistic nourishment through entertainment,' right?"

"You're just naughty!"

Chen nodded with a smile, then looked a little puzzled: "From what I'm saying, you're going tonight too? Haven't you all already seen it?"

“It’s different. Last time we went to a regular movie theater.”

Wang Changhua declared confidently, "This time we're going to Wanda Cinema. I heard they have the only IMAX screen in the country, the effect is completely different! One movie, two experiences, this is definitely worth it!"

Chen knew perfectly well that Wang Changhua just wanted to have another chance to watch a movie with Wu Yu.

But I also admire him quite a bit. Men can come up with all sorts of excuses to spend more time with girls they like. Their reaction speed is just as good as mine.

……

The group hailed two taxis and headed straight for Wanda Cinema, which had just opened in 2006.

The newly opened cinema certainly had a different feel to it; the lobby was clean and bright, the lights were dazzling, and the air was filled with the faint sweet aroma of popcorn. "The ritual of watching a movie is essential!"

Wang Changhua immediately shouted that he had run to the snack section and returned carrying several buckets of popcorn and a large bag of snacks, including chicken feet, spicy strips, and preserved plums.

"When going out for food, drinks, and fun, taking Lao Wang along is always the right choice."

Chen said with a smile.

"Chen, don't just stand there! There are still a few Cokes left, go get them for me!"

Wang Changhua has already begun directing Director Chen.

Chen shook his head and jogged over, returning with five cups of cola. The secretary couldn't help but give him a thumbs up: "President Changhua, tonight your status in my heart has temporarily surpassed President Chen's."

"Only temporarily?"

Wang Changhua boasted smugly, "You don't know how much Yuanyuan loves going for walks with me. I buy her whatever she likes."

"Depend on!"

Chen almost wanted to kick him when he heard that.

No wonder I dragged Yuanyuan out for runs every day during the summer vacation, but she didn't lose any weight. It turns out you were precisely feeding her!
Next, everyone chatted in the waiting area. Three girls held cups, sipping their iced cola, their eyes half-closed in happiness and satisfaction.

As soon as the announcement came on, the waiting crowd walked towards the theater in twos and threes, and took their seats under the guidance of the dimly lit aisle.

Chen Zhe and Yu Xian were in the middle towards the back, Wang Changhua and Wu Yu were in the middle towards the front, and the little secretary was all alone, but she took the most snacks.

This actually shows that different relationships between men and women lead to different choices of seats in the movie theater.

For long-married couples like Chen Zhe and Yu Xuan, they are placed a little further back, because there might be some intimate gestures.

People like Wang Changhua and Wu Yu, who are "still in progress," are at the front. Firstly, they can see the movie more clearly, and secondly, they are somewhat reserved and are still sitting upright.

However, there were quite a lot of people in the IMAX lobby, and even at the back, Yu Xuan was still sitting next to a girl.

She came alone. Chen glanced at her a few times in the dim light. She was about the same age as Xianmei, probably a sophomore or junior in college. Of course, her features were not as delicate as Yu Baibai's.

Her skin was deathly pale, her long hair was loosely tied back, her eyes were peaceful and calm, and she exuded an artistic aura, as if she were someone who often observed the world alone.

When she bent down to take something out of the cloth bag, her fingers were slender, her nails were neatly trimmed, and they were hands accustomed to holding a pen.

As the movie started, Chen's attention returned to his own.

It has to be said that Gordon Chan is quite remarkable. He only borrowed the name of "Painted Skin" and completely changed the content and character settings, but the audience did not dislike it at all.

The cinematography, costumes, props, and atmosphere all showcase the skill of a top Hong Kong director.

The plot is quite touching and complicated. Why complicated? Because it tells the story of the male protagonist's feelings and hesitation between two women.

However, the two female protagonists deliberately set up a physiological boundary between "human and demon," implying that the two sides are irreconcilable.

Moreover, Wang Sheng's identity is unique; he is a general, a leader, and a super elite in the social sense.

Therefore, when Pei Rong (the female protagonist) decides to drink the demon poison, bear the guilt, and sacrifice herself to ensure Wang Sheng's reputation and peace, she is in a difficult situation.

Yu Xuan's eyes were red, and some girls in the theater were also secretly wiping away tears.

Chen stretched out his arm and grasped Xianmei's small hand tightly.

In the end, when Xiaowei (the other female lead) understood the essence of love, she spat out the demon spirit to save everyone, but lost her cultivation and turned into a white fox.

In the background, Zhang Liangying's "Painted Skin" began to play at just the right moment:
The inability to see through it is your lost soul.

I can't figure it out, it's the color of your pupils, like a gust of wind.
A dream, love as unpredictable as life itself.
What has bewitched your heart?

……

Yu Xuan cried her heart out.

Chen sighed, thinking to himself, "Chen Jiashang, I'll fuck your mother. When you make this kind of movie, have you ever considered the feelings of 'Wang Sheng and his ilk'?"
We were already struggling, and you still want to analyze this mindset on the big screen.

However, the song "Painted Skin" was so beautiful that even after the movie ended and the lights gradually came on, many viewers were still immersed in its lingering charm, listening to the very last note.

"Director Chen..."

At this moment, Yu Xuan, nestled in his arms, pitifully raised her head: "Who do you think Wang Sheng loves more? If he loves Pei Rong more, why would he still be attracted to Xiao Wei?"
