Chapter 36 Chinese New Year

After returning from the 4S shop, the family of three celebrated the New Year in the hotel.

Chen Bicheng ordered a table of the most luxurious set meal. At 7 o'clock, the living room was already full of food. This was much more sumptuous than the New Year's Eve dinner prepared by Pan Chengrong, with everything from abalone to lobster. But Pan Chengrong still looked very disgusted, saying that Chen Bicheng didn't know how to order dishes, and that it was a waste of money, so it would be better for the whole family to have a hot pot.

In this era, Uncle Benshan has not retired yet, and the Spring Festival Gala is still a necessity. After dinner, the family of three watched TV together. Although they said they were watching TV, the three of them could not sit together quietly for five minutes.

Chen Bicheng's New Year's greetings have not stopped since 8 o'clock. The key is that not only do people wish him a happy new year, but he also wants to wish others a happy new year. Pan Chengrong's housewife friends started calling each other to gossip after o'clock, after they finished preparing the New Year's Eve dinner.

Relatively speaking, Chen Nuo is not that busy.

He called Zhang Yiyi first.

But the other party has turned off the phone.

Chen Nuo suddenly remembered that during the days when he was practicing dancing the hardest, Zhang Yiyi called him and said that he had completed the post-production of his movie. At the same time, he and Li Xiaotian went to several film producers to look at it, but the prices they offered were not ideal. They also suggested that he participate in foreign film festivals.

"They said that this film can't be shown in China. Judging from this, the market value is not high. So, let's go to Berlin and see if we can get something back. We can talk about it then. To put it bluntly, let's go the same way as Jia Zhangke did. Xiaotian and I decided to try our luck. Do you want to join us?"

"I'm still filming a movie, so I won't go."

This was Chen Nuo’s answer at the beginning.

Actually, filming is only one aspect. Another aspect is that after coming out of the movie "Mute", he didn't want to participate in anything related to the movie. It was as if he had gone through that journey and had no way and no desire to go back.

It sounds quite literary, but it is not a hard and fast rule. It's just that if it can be pushed forward, it will be pushed forward. That's all.

Zhang Yiyi didn't try to persuade him when he heard that he was unwilling. After all, they didn't have a film company to back them up, so they had to pay for everything themselves. They invited Chen Nuo because the cost of this trip abroad was saved by him.

At that time, Chen Nuo was extremely tired every day, and after making this phone call, he put the matter out of his mind.

Now that I think about it, Zhang Yiyi and the others have been out for almost two weeks, and I don't know how they are doing. This was an era without WeChat, and international long-distance phone calls were extremely expensive. Once people went abroad, it was very inconvenient to contact them. Chen Nuo could only silently wish them good luck.

After Zhang Yiyi, it’s Li Er.

The situation on Li Er's side was quite complicated. Chen Nuo wished Li Er a happy new year first, and then Chen Bicheng and Pan Chengrong also wanted to wish Teacher Li a happy new year. After that, Qi Yuntian wanted to talk to him again, and after that, Qi Yuntian also wanted to wish Chen Bicheng and Pan Chengrong a happy new year.

After the phone call, Chen Nuo's Nokia 3100 battery only had one bar of power left.

After these two most important phone calls, all the remaining New Year greetings could be sent via text messages. Chen Nuo replaced the battery of his mobile phone and began to reply to the text messages one by one.

Wang Zhihan's: "Destiny is like peach blossoms, wealth is like waves, life is like happy flowers, dating is like morning glory, career is like climbing vines, don't be too extravagant when you have love, don't spend money recklessly when you have money, and share some of your windfall with me. Happy New Year."

Chen Nuo replied: "Good things come in pairs. You are the most glorious when you go out. You are the king of the world, better than Qin Shi Huang. Everyone supports you. You eat meat while others drink soup. Money keeps filling your pockets. Happy New Year."

Ma Yanran actually sent him a text message. He didn't even click on it and deleted it directly. Then he saw Yang Mi's message.

"In the Year of the Rooster, may your life be as prosperous as a rooster's comb, your career be as high-spirited as a rooster's crow, and your love be as colorful as a cock's tail. Happy New Year, and good luck in the Year of the Rooster!"

He replied: "Happy New Year, I hope we can all pass the exam."

After a while, when Chen Nuo was still replying to other people's text messages, Yang Mi called him.

"Happy New Year, are you back in Beijing?"

"Happy New Year. I replied. How about you?"

"I'm from Beijing. I'm making dumplings at home. Since you're so sincere and wrote me a message in person, I'll give you a call. How are you preparing?"

"What preparations did you say?"

"An exam."

"Oh, I'm almost ready. How about you?" Chen Nuo blushed. He didn't prepare anything. After graduating from the training class, he had been dancing and filming for the past month.

"I don't know. I feel that everything depends on God's will. Although we are recruiting 30 people this year, I heard that there are many more applicants than before, and the competition is even more intense. So we are also competitors."

"How can I compete with you? You are so beautiful, you will definitely beat me."

"There are so many beauties. What am I? I've been suffering from insomnia these past few days. Every time I wash my hair, it falls out in clumps. I'm scared to death. Tell me about yourself. How does it feel to go to Shanghai to film with big stars and directors? Did Zhang Xueyou see Jin Chengwu?"

"I saw it, but I didn't feel anything. It was all pretty normal."

Yang Mi sighed quietly, "When will I have this day? People asked me, Yang Mi, how was filming with Jin Cheng Wu and Zhang Xueyou? I said it was nothing, everyone was pretty normal."

Chen Nuo smiled and said, "I think it's more likely that someone will ask me one day, Chen Nuo, how does it feel to rent a house with Yang Mi? I will say it's nothing, she's quite normal."

"Hahahahahaha, I'll borrow your good words."

After talking to Yang Mi on the phone, Chen Nuo thought about it and realized that there was actually another person. But forget it, after all, the other person said he had forgotten, so he shouldn't bother them.

But when Chen Nuo finished his night watch and went to bed at 1 a.m., his cell phone rang.

Chen Nuo opened the text message and found it was from Xia Yehe. The text message contained only three words: "Happy New Year."

Haha, you are quite cool. Then I am cooler than you. He replied with two words: "you too."
