Chapter 145 Pants, Dialect, Same Goods
I told my friends in the summer that Wan Ke's stock was a good buy and a good long-term investment.

And the returns are indeed quite good!
After all, it's the first company listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange, and it still has more than 20 years of growth potential ahead.

But they have indeed run into some trouble recently.

It is said that at the beginning of this year, a young reporter asked Wang Shi, "Mr. Wang, what exactly does our Wan Ke do?"

This question stumped Wang Shi!
why?
Because Wanke now does everything, with fifty or sixty affiliated and cooperative companies under its name, it follows a "comprehensive approach".

But that's not important, stock prices don't reflect that. The important thing is that someone is eyeing them.

Based on this friend's description, Xia Tian had some guesses.

Someone is manipulating Wan Ke's stock, planning to fleece retail investors.

However, Wang Shi was no pushover either. He discovered the situation in time, and then the two sides started a "business war".

Later, people learned that the company that tried to take advantage of the situation was a now-famous securities firm, and this incident was later known as the "Junwan Dispute".

This also allowed many domestic businessmen to experience the "simple and unpretentious" nature of business warfare.

It seems that after this incident, Wanke started focusing on real estate and stopped pursuing a diversified business model.
……

In early April, news came from Africa that a large-scale massacre had occurred in Rwanda.

Originally one ethnic group, they were divided into two races by the Belgian colonizers, who then divided one faction against the other, creating hatred.

This led to the tragedy that occurred many years later!

Ten years later, a film titled "Hotel Rwanda" was made based on this incident.

The lead actor is Don Cheadle, the skinny black man who later becomes Iron Man's friend and pilot of the Iron Patriot after breaking his leg.

This is a common tactic used by colonizers. For example, Great Britain, the troublemaker, stirred up a mess in India!

It stirred up the Indian subcontinent into a mess that remained a mess for thirty years!

……

I've been staying home with Milan all summer, while Milan keeps wanting to do *that*, but Xiao Xu and Zhang Li are keeping a close eye on her and often arrest her!

Since it's not yet the time for a boom in film and television products, Xia Tianxia Entertainment is just making a small-scale effort to secure a place in the market.

The same song also falls under the category of "playing dumb," acting as a platform and security company.

So there's not much important stuff to do in the summer.

If you don't have anything important to do, you can develop your hobbies. I've bought some trinkets recently, like bronze arrowheads from the Han Dynasty.

On that day, something happened in the antique market of Yanjing—a batch of Northern Wei pottery figurines suddenly appeared in Panjiayuan!
That's quite a lot, thirty or forty terracotta figurines of various sizes.

Summer arrived upon hearing the news and handled eight items, the largest being a meter tall and the smallest the size of a palm.

Believe it or not, several experts in the industry have examined it and are basically certain it's genuine!

I inspected several items in the summer but couldn't find any flaws. But I still felt a little uneasy!
Summer has always relied on her intuition when it comes to antiques, and it's usually quite accurate.

Later, as my knowledge and insight in this area improved, I became even more impressive.

However, I couldn't see anything wrong with these Northern Wei pottery figurines, but something just felt off.

Most importantly, I didn't feel any "qi" in these things during the summer!
Logically speaking, something from such a long time ago shouldn't be missing, right?

Even on some old official kiln pieces, you can faintly feel it.

Moreover, the old men around him were all discussing whether "another large tomb had been robbed," but Xia Tian felt that these things did not seem to come from a tomb.

There was no trace of that eerie energy...

Many people in the industry are wondering why Brother Tian hasn't made a move. He's not short of money either.

The next day, experts from a reputable organization came to investigate and, after examination, confirmed that the item was genuine.

As a result, major museums began a rescue acquisition spree, causing prices to skyrocket.

Summer is still spent watching plays...

A few days later, the museum had spent millions, and the Northern Wei terracotta figurines kept coming in endlessly.
Now everyone knew something was wrong—what kind of tomb had so many terracotta figurines? Were the kiln workers buried alive with them?!
In the summer, I asked someone to look for it, and you know what? They found the "source" before the officials did.

My friend said the "source" of the counterfeit goods was Luoyang, and the person making the fakes was a farmer surnamed Gao.

Because of the poor signal, my friend yelled into the phone, "It's not just terracotta figurines, I'm right in his backyard right now, and there's a whole bunch of high-quality replicas of Tang Dynasty tri-colored pottery!" Xia Tian: ...I've met an expert!

Summer chatted with the old man on the phone for a long time, and the old man was quite frightened.

He sold it as a handicraft, but it changed hands several times and was sold as an antique, and even ended up in a museum. Is he out of luck?

Summer comforted him and then contacted the museum.

"Ah, Director Liu, we've found it! Hmm, let's talk in person..."

In the end, Mr. Gao didn't suffer any real consequences; he accepted the museum's mistake. In fact, with Xia Tian's help, he even became a cultural relic restorer, securing a stable job.

Unexpectedly, more than a decade later, Mr. Gao became an inheritor of intangible cultural heritage.
……

While Xia Tian was at home studying those modern Northern Wei terracotta figurines and pondering their craftsmanship, Feng Kuzi came knocking on his door.

Summer could tell from his long face that nothing good was going to happen.

Tell him to go to the hospital immediately so as not to disturb Milan's rest.

Feng Kuzi looked dejected and a little embarrassed, but the embarrassment quickly disappeared—he was embarrassed to do this to others, but to Xia Tian was actually quite considerate!
Xia Tian, ​​unaware of the rumors he was having about her, asked him, "Aren't you filming that movie with Fang Yan lately?"

“《Forever Lost My Love》” Pants added.

"Right... then why did you suddenly come to find me?" Xia Tian asked.

Feng Kuzi licked his lips and asked, "I'd like to ask Brother Tian'er for advice. What should I do about this?"

"What's the matter?"

When Xia Tian heard what he said, she was so angry that she almost kicked him out!

Damn it, why are you asking me about this?
What does that mean? It's a veiled attack!
That bastard was already all over Xu Fan while filming the movie, but his wife found out.

The current situation is that they are not separating, but in a cold war.

Feng Kuzi himself felt guilty, after all, he had pursued her with great enthusiasm and his parents were worried that he, an artist, was not a stable person.

Seeing his appearance put my mind at ease—now I see, you really can't judge a book by its cover.

These days, divorces are rare, let alone when the couple has a daughter.

So the original owner of the pants still wants to salvage the situation a little...

"Damn it, you're looking for me? How am I supposed to know what you're up to? I don't understand, get lost!"

I don't have these kinds of problems in the summer, and I don't get involved in this nonsense at all.

"For something like this, you should go find someone with a dialect! You two will have something in common."

Unexpectedly, Xia Tian's words came true.

That bastard Fang Yan isn't exactly honest either; he met a sophomore girl from Yandian University. She's been relentlessly pursuing him!
The reason Feng Kuzi sought out Xia Tian was because he felt that Fang Yan was likely to follow the same path as him, and that Xia Tian might not be able to provide him with any correct guidance.

Well, I learned about this later in the summer through gossip in Milan, and the girl who relentlessly pursued Fang Yan was none other than Xu Cairen...

……

On April 15th, Wang Fei called and said she had seen a very funny movie called "Shaolin Popeye".

As soon as I heard that it was a movie starring two kids and Lin Zhiying from the island, I knew which movie it was.

The two children in this film are Shi Xiaolong and Hao Shaowen.

Interestingly, Shi Yongxin of Shaolin Temple has become famous by taking advantage of the popularity of the movie "Shaolin Temple".

In recent years, I have taken my apprentices to perform in various places and even abroad.

For example, they went to an island, where 5-year-old Shi Xiaolong was among the visitors.

He was performing martial arts there when a director spotted him and cast him in "Shaolin Popeye," thus beginning his film career. However, child stars generally find it difficult to achieve mainstream success as adults.
You know what, there are quite a few familiar faces in this movie.

Not to mention Jimmy Lin, Hao Shaowen, and Shi Xiaolong, there's also singer Chang Chen-yue.

The female lead is Vivian Hsu, a tough character who posed for revealing photoshoots at the age of 16.
The other female lead, Hilary Tsui, later became Eason Chan's wife.

There are also veteran actors like Sister Pomegranate (Yuen Qiu-dan) and Paul Chun, quite a few familiar faces~
Furthermore, Wang Fei said that some scenes in "Shaolin Popeye" were imitations of "Home Alone".

Summer: Now everyone's trying to take advantage of me?!
