Exciting 1979!

Chapter 178 Shocking the Gong Family for a Hundred Years (Guaranteed 1 Update)
When spending the night at a stranger's house, Xizi was not at all shy and was very sweet-spoken. He called grandpa and grandma, uncle and aunt, aunt, and cousin very naturally.

However, this scared Gong Yuandong and his wife so much that they almost thought their daughter had an illegitimate child outside.

The key point is that this child’s age just fits the timeline of Gong Xing going to the countryside!

And there was also a gossipy neighbor auntie who came over to ask.

"Teacher Gong, I just saw Nong's Axue bring a little boy back. What's going on?"

Gong Xing hurried forward to explain.

"Aunt, this is the little actor from our crew, he plays my son, and he's following me to experience life."

"Oh, the actor's son." The other party said doubtfully.

Mother Zhuang Che quickly closed the door, looked at the kid worriedly, and warned him, "It's ok to call me mom at home, but you can't do that outside."

Xizi nodded quickly: "Usually I call you sister."

Mr. Gong: It’s not right to call you sister!

Gong Xing didn't really care. He thought that once the movie was released, the neighbors would know what was going on, so there was no need to waste words on it now.

"Mom, Xizi is hungry, let's have dinner quickly."

Xizi immediately touched her belly.

Gong Xing's brother and sister-in-law immediately started serving dishes to the table, while his parents asked Gong Xing about the filming and whether it was going well.

"Yeah, pretty good." Gong Xing's performance this time was much better than in "Jiehong". In addition to his own better preparation, the team's overall capabilities were also stronger.

Of course, Wei Ming also deserves great credit. He is the creator of this character, and his interpretation of the character can help me better understand the character.

Mother Gong said, "That's good. I'll be thankful if I can stay in the Shanghai Film Studio."

Indeed, the possibility of Gong Xing staying in Shanghai Film Studio is increasing, but she does not seem to be as enthusiastic as she was at the beginning.

Gong Xing ate his own food while picking up some food for Xizi.

Although Xizi is naughty at home, he is still very worldly-wise when he is out. Although the Shanghai cuisine is not to his taste, he still says "Wow! The dishes made by grandma and aunt are so delicious!"

The little guy made Gong Xing's mother and sister-in-law very happy, and they also praised Xizi for being sensible, polite and handsome.

This made Gong Xing's eldest nephew very jealous. Although he was two years older than Xizi, he was still a child after all.

The rice bowl is pushed away.

"I'm stuffed!"

Then I read this month's "Youth Literature and Art" by myself.

Because the food was not to his liking, Xizi quickly resolved the fight and moved closer to his "cousin".

Although Xizi was not very literate, he was able to recognize pictures and realised that what his cousin was reading was the last chapter of "Jumanji" written by his cousin.

He had heard this story from Wei Ming a long time ago. His father even made a chessboard for him and Lele that was exactly the same as the one in the novel, but without the elephant and lion.

Seeing that his son didn't want to pay attention to Xizi, in order to prevent Xizi from being left out, Brother Gong Xing hurriedly took out a book of "Children's Literature" and let Xizi read it.

Father Gong laughed and said, "How old is he? How can he understand it?"

Brother Gong Xing said, "If you can't understand the words, you can just look at the pictures."

"Thank you, uncle, but I've already seen it."

Gong Xing added: "Xizi's biological mother is the editor of Children's Literature, so he has read every issue."

Upon hearing this, Gong Ying interrupted and said, "Xiao Ning, maybe Xizi's mother knows the writer you like very much."

Hearing this, Gong Xing's nephew softened his attitude towards Xizi. He asked, "Does your mother know Wei Shi?"

I am not sleepy when you say this, Xizi said proudly: "I know him!"

"You know him, the braggart, right?"

"Who is bragging? Wei He is my brother!"

Gong Ying blurted out: "Isn't your brother Wei Ming?"

She had seen her sister's photo of a family of four and knew exactly the relationship between Xizi and Wei Ming.

"What, Wei Ming? The great writer Wei Ming?"

"Wei Ming is Xizi's brother?"

Gong Xing's parents looked surprised. They were loyal readers of Wei Ming. Plus, their daughter was currently filming a movie adapted from one of his novels, so every time Wei Ming released a new work, they would buy it to enjoy it as soon as possible.

However, Wei Ming has not published any novels in recent months, but he has written some very good essays. These essays helped them understand Wei Ming's age, hometown, number of people in his family and other information.

Gong Xing had no choice but to explain: "Xizi's full name is Wei Xi, and the writer Wei Ming is his cousin, but there is a big age difference between them."

Gong Xing's parents nodded, thinking that Xizi was probably chosen for this role thanks to his brother, unlike Xiaoxue in our family, who relied entirely on her own strength.

After being shocked, Brother Gong Xing laughed and said, "It seems that Xizi regards all writers with the surname Wei as his brothers."

Gong Xing said again: "No, the fairy tale writer Wei What is indeed his brother. Wei What is another pen name of Wei Ming."

"what!"

Several adults opened their mouths in surprise, and nephew Gong Xing even dropped the magazine in his hand out of surprise.

Seeing this "cousin" looking at her with a complicated expression, Xizi put her hands on her waist and said proudly: "And I know the rest of the story of "Black Cat Sheriff"."

Brother Ming told him several episodes during the Chinese New Year.

The "cousin" immediately smiled and took Xizi's hand: "Xizi, tell me about it."

Seeing the two brothers chatting enthusiastically, Brother Gong Xing still found it incredible. "One writes serious literature, and the other writes fairy tales. How could they be the same person?"

Gong Xing's father: "Yes, fairy tales are actually very difficult to write, especially those that are loved by children."

Gong Xing: "There are always some geniuses in this world that we cannot understand."

And I didn’t even mention that he can also write martial arts novels.

But after finishing the meal and clearing the table, Gong Xing pulled his mother aside and took out a stack of drawings.

"Mom, this is a comic work that a friend of mine asked me to submit to your publishing house."

Gong's mother Zhuang Che put on her glasses and said, "Heroes have always emerged from youth?"

Hearing the name, Gong Xu, the elder brother of Gong Xing, came over immediately and asked, "What's wrong? What's wrong?"

He is currently following this novel, which is published in "Story Club" every two months. It is too slow and now all that is missing is the ending.

Gong Xu's eyes lit up when he saw the comic version: "This novel has been published as a comic book! The style of painting is quite interesting!"

There were only ten drawings, and he flipped through them over and over again, feeling unsatisfied.

Gong Xing said: "This is a comic book version created by the original author and the painter. They want to publish it, so they came to me for help."

Gong Xu was surprised and said, "Ah Xue, you also know Wei Kuang Ren!"

Gong Xing nodded and did not reveal Wei Ming's other alias.

However, Gong Xu discovered the blind spot himself.

"This painter Liu Rulong seems to be the one who drew the illustrations for Wei What!" Then the eldest brother muttered, "Wei Ming, Wei What, Wei Madman?"

It seems that his elder brother still has some brains. Gong Xing said with a smile: "Well, Wei Kuangren is also Wei Ming's pen name. This novel was written by him."

Gong Xu: “…”

Gong Ying, who came over to join in the fun after hearing the news: "..."

Mr. Gong, who was holding a newspaper but couldn't read it at all, said: "..."

The eldest sister-in-law asked at this time: "Is he transforming from one qi into three pure ones?"

Gong explained: "He said it was for the convenience of readers, so he used different pen names to write different types of stories."

Mother Gong narrowed her eyes and asked, "Do you know Xiaoxue?"

Gong Xing was a little flustered, then said, "Yes, I have seen him."

Mother Gong suddenly felt a little shaken by the fact that her daughter was chosen based on her talent.

She has read the comic and said she will show it to her boss tomorrow.

"I'll give you news as soon as possible."

It's time to go to bed now. The eldest nephew really wants Xizi to sleep with him and tell him the story behind Black Cat Sheriff.

But he still has to sleep with his parents, so Xizi will definitely choose his mother and aunt.

After Xizi fell asleep, Gong Ying whispered to her second sister through Xizi.

"How come this guy is so talented? He can even write songs!" Gong Ying was deeply moved. He was really a good material for being a brother-in-law, except that he was a little young, younger than herself.

How could Gong Xing not know what her sister was thinking? She felt that she was out of her league and it would be nice to be a brother and sister who could talk to each other about their true feelings.

Gong Ying asked again: "What is he busy with now? He hasn't released any new works?"

"I'm preparing to write a novel," Gong Xing said. "I also went to Guangzhou a while ago."

Gong Ying smiled and said, "Sister, it seems that you two keep in touch often."

"No, not often. He just writes letters and makes phone calls occasionally. He also pays close attention to the progress of our filming." Gong Xing said insincerely.

In the next room, Gong Xing's mother was also tossing and turning and unable to sleep. She had the sensitive mind that only women have.

My daughter doesn't consider her personal problems even though she's older. Is it because she's attracted to such an outstanding young man?

Women are like this. Once they see a man who is too outstanding, they will look down on ordinary men.

Wei Ming is truly outstanding. His parents have good personalities, his sister is a good student, and his brother is a national treasure. It's just that his age is not right. It's so worrying.

The next day, Zhuang Che came to the unit and handed over the drawings to Director Sun, who was in charge of comic book publishing.

It just so happened that he had an appointment with Zhang Leping today, so he asked Mr. Zhang to take a look together.

"Sanmao Joins the Army" and "Sanmao's Wanderings" can be said to be extremely well-known comic works, and Zhang Leping is the "Father of Sanmao". In addition to mythological characters such as Sun Wukong and Nezha, Sanmao can be said to be the most famous original cartoon image in modern China.

Mr. Zhang looked at the ten drawings carefully and became amused as he looked at them.

Seeing that Mr. Zhang was so happy, Director Sun and Zhuang Che knew that it was a sure thing!

At this time in Yanjing, Wei Ming was saying goodbye to Wu Tianming. He had completed the audition for the male lead and it was preliminarily decided that Li Baotian would play the role.

Although he is the oldest, he is not from Shandong.

But after putting on makeup, he fits the role better, and people from Xuzhou are quite close to Shandong. Most importantly, he is the only one among the actors who can perform the kind of humor that Wu Tianming wants.

Li Baotian had played clown roles on the stage before, which added a lot to his appeal when he was competing for this role.

"I'm going to visit your father this time. Do you need me to bring anything?" Wu Tianming asked. He was now going to Gouzitun to ask Wei Jiefang to come out of retirement.

Wei Ming smiled and took out a letter~
