1978: Female educated youth, don’t want an illiterate husband

The old factory director's loudspeaker announcements echoed throughout every corner of the Yanying Film Factory, including the family dormitory area.

Chen Kaizi had just returned from school and was sitting at his desk, preparing to write a script as well.

But then he suddenly heard cheers coming from outside, which made him frown.

He immediately got up and went to the window, just in time to hear the old factory director's last words on the radio: "...20.9 million US dollars in foreign exchange!"

"More than twenty million US dollars?" Chen Kaizi was stunned on the spot, his face full of disbelief, and he muttered to himself, "Tai Chi? That martial arts film that Cheng Xuemin took to Bolin?"

Chen Kaizi couldn't believe that the martial arts film Cheng Xuemin made could earn so many US dollars.

More than 20 million US dollars!

How is this possible!
It should be noted that Chen Kaizi did indeed think that Cheng Xuemin's Tai Chi videos were quite beautiful.

But he had previously complained to Tian Zhuangzhuang and others that martial arts films were all just for show and lacked depth.

There is absolutely no chance that they can achieve any good results on the international stage.

However, the more than 20 million US dollars that the old factory director had just announced over the loudspeaker really struck Chen Kaizi like a thunderbolt, leaving him frozen in place.

Just then, there was a rapid knocking on the door.

Chen Kaizi then came to his senses and looked over. It was his best friend Tian Zhuangzhuang standing at the door, panting, grabbing his arm and pulling him outside, urgently saying, "Kaizi, hurry! Run!"

"Run? Run for what?" Chen Kaizi stumbled as he was pulled along, asking with a face full of confusion, "Although I'm not entirely convinced by that kid, he earned over 20 million US dollars for the country this time, which is a good thing, so why should I run?"

"Your father is your father?!" Tian Zhuangzhuang stamped his feet anxiously and said, "Your father just heard the radio in the yard, and his face turned black. He's looking for a carrying pole everywhere now!"

Looking for a carrying pole?

"Oh rub!"

Chen Kaizi's heart skipped a beat, and he instantly realized what was happening, his face turning deathly pale.

His father, Chen Huaikai, must have wanted to beat his son to death at that moment.

Because the factory's first choice for the director of Tai Chi was his father, Chen Huaikai. He had instigated his father to boast as much as possible in front of the old factory director and give the old factory director and others a guarantee.

But it backfired, causing his father to lose the opportunity to direct Tai Chi, which benefited Huang Jianzhong.

It was just a low-quality martial arts film, so what if it was lost?

But afterwards, he was beaten by his father quite a few times, especially when Huang Jianzhong brought Tai Chi to Bolin and attracted attention, which angered his father so much that when he returned from out of town, he picked up a bamboo pole and gave him a severe beating.

It almost made him unable to get out of bed.

If his father had become the director of Tai Chi, this opportunity to stand out in Bolin would definitely have been his father's!
So this happened only recently, and his buttocks are still aching slightly.

it's good now!

The old factory manager loudspeaker broadcasted Cheng Xuemin's Tai Chi achievements in Bolin over and over again, as if announcing a victory.

More than 20 million US dollars!
This trip to Bolin earned Taiji more than 20 million US dollars in foreign exchange for the country!
This result...

Anyway, if his father heard this, his face would turn green with anger, and he'd probably grab a carrying pole and furiously berate that damned son of a bitch.
If it weren't for the terrible idea I gave his father, it would have been his father who went to Bolin, and the foreign exchange earnings of over 20 million US dollars would have been his father's.

But now, it's all been given away to that guy Huang Jianzhong for nothing!

If it were Chen Kaizi, he would definitely kill his own unfilial son, upholding justice even at the cost of his own family.

"Oh no, oh no!" So Chen Kai was so scared that he turned and ran out the door, shouting to Tian Zhuangzhuang behind him, "Zhuangzhuang, you hold them off for me, I need to hide!"

But as soon as he ran out the door, he saw Chen Huaikai holding a carrying pole, rushing angrily toward him.

When Chen Huaikai saw Chen Kaizi, his eyes widened, and he picked up his carrying pole and chased after him, shouting:

"You little brat! You listen to me, you son of a bitch! I'm going to beat you to death today!"

"Dad! I was wrong! I'll never do it again!" Chen Kaizi begged for forgiveness as he ran, shouting, "Dad! Dad! This isn't entirely my fault! If you had been a little more humble and restrained yourself back then, you would be the one getting the commendation and praise on the radio today!"

"You still dare to talk!" The more Chen Huaikai heard this, the angrier and angrier he became, wishing he could just beat this unfilial son to death.

The neighbors in the courtyard couldn't help but laugh when they saw this.

Tian Zhuangzhuang stood at the door, watching Chen Kaizi being chased all over the yard, and shook her head helplessly.

Kai really deserved to be beaten this time!
If the director of Tai Chi was originally his father, then with the foreign exchange earnings of over 20 million US dollars, his father's status in the factory would definitely rise accordingly.

If that's the case, will Kai still be worried about whether he can successfully return to Yan Film Studio after graduating soon?
So all I can say is that this guy not only screwed over his dad, but also screwed over himself!

As soon as the old factory director called out, everyone in the factory knew that Cheng Xuemin had returned. Gong Xue, Zhu Lin, and Li Lianjie, who were staying at the guesthouse, all came looking for him.

Zhu Lin didn't have much to explain!
Cheng Xuemin simply gave Gong Xue and Li Lianjie a few words of advice, telling them to go back and rest for a day, and to return to their respective units the next day. The Tai Chi crew disbanded once again.

We'll wait for Cheng Xuemin's notification when we meet again.

At that time, it will probably be a celebration party for the creators of Tai Chi, held by Yan Film Studio and even the entire department.

Therefore, during this period, Cheng Xuemin had to quickly send out the invitation letters so that Chen Hai, Ji Chunhua and the others, who had already returned to their respective units, could go north again.

At that time, it won't just be a celebration; we'll also have to prepare for the release of "Tai Chi" in Hong Kong.

Due to the limited number of people, Cheng Xuemin only brought the male and female leads, excluding director Huang Jianzhong, to Bolin for this trip.

However, with over 20 million US dollars in foreign exchange earnings, they should be able to get more slots approved for Hong Kong.

When!

If possible, Cheng Xuemin plans to take all eight villains to Hong Kong for a commercial performance.

Of course, we must strike while the iron is hot and quickly launch Tai Chi 2!

However, we'll have to wait for the outcome of today's meeting with the former leader to see what the specific direction of the situation will be.

It's hard to say whether Cheng Xuemin will be cast in Tai Chi 2.

But most likely, it will still be Cheng Xuemin.

"Brother Cheng, I want to make movies with you, I don't want to go back to the martial arts team to compete anymore!" Little Li dismissed the group on the spot?

If he doesn't speak up now, he might never have another chance!

So when Cheng Xuemin finished giving his instructions and was about to leave, Li Lianjie quickly expressed her feelings and said...

Actually, Gong Xue next to him was the same!
This time, I went to Hong Kong with Xue Min and saw the world in Bolin. Li Lianjie kept nagging me, saying that she wanted to follow Xue Min to make movies and not go back to the martial arts team!

This left Gong Xue feeling very confused and restless. He wanted to stay at Yan Film Studio and stay by Xue Min's side, not wanting to go anywhere else.

Especially after returning home this time and talking with her sister almost all night, her mind was in turmoil.

So, seeing that Li Lianjie had spoken up directly, the woman next to her was also eager and looking forward to it.

We need to see what Xue Min's attitude is. If Xue Min can keep Xiao Li Zi, then what about her?
Can she do it too?
Although before, he had chatted and laughed with Liu Xiaoli from Jiangcheng, saying that they had both been transferred to Yanying Film Studio.

But those were just jokes, yet Gong Xue has now taken them seriously.

Cheng Xuemin smiled upon hearing Xiao Li's words, thinking to himself that the kid had finally lost his temper and blurted it out.

However, whether he returns to the martial arts team or not is not something he can decide simply by saying he wants to make movies with me!

It's not like Cheng Xuemin can just say "yes" and expect him to stay!
You should know that Li Lianjie is the guarantee of their Wushu team's national championship. He is not even eighteen years old yet, and he can still fight for another ten years or so.

In other words, there are at least five or six national champions supporting their martial arts team.

Do you think the martial arts team would easily release such a precious person?

In her past life, Li Lianjie's heart became wild after filming "Shaolin Temple," a movie made by Hong Kong people!

That's why he didn't want to go back to the martial arts team; he wanted to go to Hong Kong to make movies and earn big money!

But the country has put in so much effort to train him into a national champion. It's fine if you're nearing retirement; if you want to leave, then leave amicably.

But Li Lianjie is too young, and he has at least several more national championships to rely on in the future.

Which martial arts team leader would release him?

But if they don't release her, Li Lianjie's heart has already run wild, the kind that eight horses couldn't pull back.

That's why the self-harm scene happened!
Of course, whether it was intentional self-harm is still open to debate and difficult to say.

But Li Lianjie now wants to make movies with Cheng Xuemin. Even if she doesn't go to Hong Kong, she should stay in China and Beijing. But Cheng Xuemin knows it's a tricky situation and doesn't think he can successfully bring her over.

Even if Cheng Xuemin genuinely wanted to rescue the man and keep him as his servant for life.

Immediately!

Cheng Xuemin patted Li Lianjie on the shoulder and comforted her, saying, "Go back to the martial arts team first. If you want to make movies, there will definitely be plenty of movies for you to make in the future. Just don't complain about being tired!"

Since we intend to use him like a beast of burden, we must keep him firmly under control. Otherwise, if we just rescued him from the martial arts team and he turns around and runs off to Hong Kong, who will Cheng Xuemin cry to?
After all, the martial arts team can still keep him in check, but once he gets to the Yan Film Studio, it will be difficult to keep him under control!
Therefore, Cheng Xuemin had to first make the rope that was tying him up properly, and then it wouldn't be too late to rescue him.

"Yes, yes, I know, I know! Brother Cheng, you know I'm good at martial arts and I never get tired!" Li Lianjie nodded repeatedly, but Cheng Xuemin's answer was clearly not what he wanted, and he hurriedly added,

"Brother Ke Cheng, what I meant by wanting to make movies with you isn't this kind of movie making!"

"I want to leave the martial arts team and join Yan Film Studio like Sister Zhu Lin, so I can work with you, Brother Cheng, to make movies!"

The old factory director standing next to him had his eyes light up!
This is a real treasure!

If they could really get someone from the martial arts team to their Yan Film Studio, then their Yan Film Studio would truly be given wings at this time when martial arts films are about to take off!
You should know that once the People's Daily reports on Tai Chi's foreign exchange earnings, it will be a huge success!
Cheng Xuemin, as the leader, is one thing, but countless film studios will definitely try their best to poach him.

Secondly, there's that guy Li Lianjie!
So, if they wanted to come to their Yanying Film Studio, why didn't they take the initiative and poach her first?

“That works too!” Cheng Xuemin nodded again and said to Li Lianjie, “You go back first and talk to your school leaders to see what they think!”

"Brother Cheng, I wanted to..."

Before Li Lianjie could finish speaking, Cheng Xuemin waved his hand and interrupted, saying, "I know what you're thinking, but we just came back from Bolin. If we talk to your school leaders now, it sounds like we're trying to coerce or kidnap someone!"

"So wait and see. You can go back and sound out your school leaders first, but don't say I said it!"

"Otherwise, if I hear any negative rumors about your school reaching me, I'll just cut ties with you to avoid any appearance of impropriety!"

Cheng Xuemin had already warned him that he could go back and sound out his school leaders first, and that he would most likely be scolded as an ingrate.

But it cannot be mentioned that it was Cheng Xuemin who instigated him to say that.

Otherwise, this would have a significant impact on Cheng Xuemin, and it would also increase the difficulty for him to rescue people in the future!
"Alright then, I'll have to go back and ask the old principal for his opinion!"

"I think the old principal will agree, because he loves me the most!"

Li Lianjie, that silly boy is really naive. What he doesn't know is that your old principal loves you because you can win many more national championships for your sports school.

But try mentioning to your former principal that you want to leave!

Believe it or not, your former principal will lose his temper on the spot, spitting and cursing him for being ungrateful. The sports school has put in so much effort to train you!
You're up to no good, you haven't even served the sports school much yet, and you're already trying to run away?
No parent would agree to that!

Take Cheng Xuemin himself, for example. Now that Tai Chi has achieved such great success overseas, if he were to lead the main creative team directly to Shanghai Film Studio, or August First Film Studio, or even China Film Group!
Look at the old factory director Wang Yang next to him, isn't he so anxious he's jumping up and down, cursing Cheng Xuemin for being ungrateful?!

Ok!

His relationship with the old director of Yanying Film Studio was a two-way street, and if it really came to that, it wouldn't be considered ungrateful; at most, it would just be a bit unkind.

Seeing that Li Lianjie did not stay on the spot, Gong Xue did not dare to speak and reluctantly went back to the guesthouse to rest with Zhu Lin.

"Xuemin, you really don't want that kid?"

"I think it won't be long before the whole country is scrambling to get him!"

The old factory director privately remarked to Cheng Xuemin that Cheng was now indeed seeing sesame seeds and wanting corn, and after getting corn, he wanted watermelon.

Ideally, they should all be poached into their Yanying Film Studio.

"Don't even think about it, old factory director!"

"Their sports school will absolutely not let him go! Little Li is so young now, he can play for at least seven or eight more years, and at least five or six championships to back him up!"

"If you were the old factory director and you were the leader of their sports school, would you really be willing to let go of such a precious talent?"

Cheng Xuemin smiled and shook his head, then asked the old factory director a question in return!
"Of course I won't release him, I'd rather die than let him go!" the old factory manager replied instinctively, earning a smile from Cheng Xuemin in return.

"Is there really no other way?" The old factory director asked awkwardly, but still unwilling to give up.

"There are always more solutions than problems. If you want to find a solution, you can definitely come up with one. Let me think about it!"

"Old factory director, you should also think about this more and try to get the sports school to release him!"

Cheng Xuemin smiled again, then said directly to the old factory director, "I don't want to think about it anymore. Old factory director, I have to leave now. I haven't been sleeping well these past few days!"

"Especially in Guangzhou, I sang for a whole day and night to save time. Didn't the old factory director notice that my voice was hoarse?"

"Uh! Why don't you go and rest?"

Upon hearing this, the old factory manager nodded repeatedly and then shouted, "Have your brother-in-law drive you home to rest!"

okay!

Cheng Xuemin had to go back to drink chicken soup. He wondered how his wife planned to exploit him.
