Chapter 21 - Walking ATM she strikes! (4) Three-in-one first
In August, City C is still like a furnace, and the heat outside the window is like a heat wave that makes the air vibrate.
In such weather, if you drink a bottle of ice Coke at home, you will be able to cool from head to toe.
Ning Chuxia looked at the computer with satisfaction, and the screen freezed was the scene of the transformation of the little flower fairies in “Flower Fairy Magic Team”.
The transformation of Hua Xian is the highlight of the whole drama. For this special effect, Ning Chuxia took the computer to the digital special effects company and stayed for two whole days.
In fact, the late-stage company that Xia Shu was looking for was not because of insufficient qualifications, but because the qualifications were too good.
This company is the first choice for post-production special effects in the film and television industry. The special effects they do on weekdays are all at the level of sci-fi wars. Although they are quite bizarre about a children’s TV series like “Hua Xian Magic Team”, they are still in Under the waving banknotes, special effects were carefully done.
Then, Ning Chuxia saw the special effect that made her brows jump-
When the Violet Flower Fairy casted the spell, as the magic wand in her hand stretched forward, a gust of wind rolled up the petals, and the rolls became bigger and bigger, and smashed it fiercely in the shape of a hurricane. Broken pebbles flew all over the sky.
The villain screamed in the sky, and layers of light waves shook from his side. Even the buildings were terribly distorted in time and space. The evil magic reappeared. The blood-colored crows made in the later stage flew out, the sky turned black, and a red moon rose. rise.
Even in the transformation session where Ning Chuxia sent all the manuscripts, the other party made it look like a mecha, with a nuclear explosion effect on the back.
Coupled with the changing cosmic stars that are inserted from time to time, the intertwined particle beams create a cyberpunk effect.
Genius, really genius, but this… is really not what Ning Chuxia wants, she is willing to spend money, part of the reason is that she does not want to go the way of low-cost special effects for her own memory, and wants to make the picture more delicate, but she never I thought about what blockbuster effects to pursue.
When she was holding the special effects company on the computer, although she pretended to be shy and pitiful, she still saw the expressions of the employees on the opposite side.
Hmm… If it was translated, it would probably be “I’ve done it for you, so what are you not satisfied with?”.
Faced with the seemingly difficult party A, the special effects company sent a representative to negotiate. Although Ning Chuxia seemed to be bullying and easy to talk to, she was standing behind her backer, and Xia Shu stood there with her arms crossed, looking like an old man who couldn’t be fooled. The fritters look like, they can only listen carefully.
Then, Ning Chuxia saw the unique skills of Sichuan Opera, and the expressions of the employees changed from “see what faults you can pick out” to “this is it” full of shock.
Ning Chuxia just watched the employees wandering away with their opinions, and discussed round after round outside the conference room, and then the person in charge called Xia Shu away again and went to discuss it again.
She knew without eavesdropping that they must have felt that they did not understand the market, and wanted to let Xia Shu, a seemingly experienced person, come out and speak.
Naturally, Xia Shu would not refute Ning Chuxia’s opinion. After some discussion among the employees, they changed the special effects according to Ning Chuxia’s request. According to Ning Chuxia’s ideas, the progress of the special effects was much faster than before. In half the time, the special effects of an entire episode can be done.
The special effects company was still very concerned about their reputation. They handed in the first episode of the reworked version first. Later, it became clear that Ning Chuxia was the one who could really call the shots. They asked Xia Shu for a phone number and called Ning Chuxia.
“Miss Ning, to be honest, we have always come according to the requirements of customers. After all, everyone’s aesthetics are different, but according to the fees we charge, if we hand over such a later stage, the circles will say that we are harsh on newcomers. “The boss of the special effects company was hard at work on the phone.
“You also have to believe in our technical level. The version we made for you before has the factor of rushing, but the level of all aspects is absolutely reasonable in the circle. Although I don’t understand your film, the valuable special effects and The audience can see the worthless special effects.”
Ning Chuxia could hear that the other party had a spirit of craftsmanship, she thought about it, and then also applied for the “referee” to intervene.
Now that both versions of the film have been made, no one can convince the other, so let the audience judge.
The special effects company ushered in the youngest auditors, and the actors of “Hua Xian Magic Team” are in place and neatly done one by one. They have not seen the finished film yet, so they are very curious at this time.
Then, the members of the special effects team of the special effects company “Flower Fairy Magic Team” suffered a devastating impact on the worldview.
All the actors actually voted for the later revision, even the little boy who had been staring at the original version with high hopes, finally shook his head and voted for the latter.
Listening to the chatter of the young actors, and even giving suggestions that the special effects could be more earthy and exaggerated, there was silence. Even Xia Shu, who had always shown that he was on Ning Chuxia’s side, was quite shocked.
They looked at each other in bewilderment, wondering if at some point they were behind the age of special effects?
Ning Chuxia didn’t explain much, but said that this “Hua Xian Magic Team” is for children to watch, and she hoped that children will like it.
With the voting results in front of them, the special effects company did their best to make the special effects according to Ning Chuxia’s plan. Even in their company, it is still a mystery why the special effects voting for this show is like this.
When the final film was handed over, the boss of the special effects company also specifically asked the release time of “Hua Xian Magic Team”. They vowed to see the audience’s reaction at that time.
Ning Chuxia clicked the play button, and the transformation in the video continued.
Appearing in the middle of the screen is Lily Xiaohuaxian. She has an energy device in it and shouts a spell: “Holy and pure lily, bloom under the blowing of the power of dreams-transformation!”
The background of Lily Flower Fairy’s transformation is light goose-yellow, and the bright white halo promotes the reunion, forming a closed lily bud, which means that the light blue magic circle of dreams is looming, and the lily flowers are in full bloom, revealing the girl curled up in it. .
The light first fell on the taut toes, and gradually moved upwards, white boots, and a skirt like cascading petals… Finally, the flower fairy fell from the buds, and the flowers that were already blooming behind her also swirl to her hands, becoming her hands. ‘s staff.
…Well, to be honest, even the author herself, Ning Chuxia looked a little embarrassed, but she was still satisfied with the overall results.
Girls and dreams are all her requirements for special effects. Light is a necessary element, and the flowers that represent each flower fairy are not like real objects. The outer layer is full of magical power like a subtle halo. There are also special effects of each casting, which must be enough to make people intoxicated.
Some of the children’s special effects films in Ning Chuxia’s memory, in her later eyes, the special effects are still a bit outdated, and even feel a little bit of special effects.
With sufficient investment, the special effects of “Hua Xian Magic Team”, although not in the style of a blockbuster, are also exquisite enough. The key is that every design is aimed at capturing the hearts of the audience.
Ning Chuxia is very clear in this regard. Although there is a lot of money, he must not want everything.
The big bang scene is cool and expensive, but is this what “Hua Xian Magic Team” needs? What this film needs is an unrealistic sense of fantasy, so that the child watching can yearn for it and feel that she also wants to be such a person.
The reason why the special effects company feels a little cheesy is a large part of the reason that Ning Chuxia thinks that they have been away from the children’s perspective for too long. Of course, the children will also think that the big scene is cool, but the so-called cool special effects are more intuitive and gimmicky. , is what they want.
The character modeling should be exquisite, the lines should be in line with the logic of the child, the story line should be simple but positive, and the special effects should also be entertaining.
Of course, if this “Hua Xian Magic Team” is successful, she is of course also interested in the next work, and she is also interested in taking a look at the more expensive all-ages. If she can conquer adults and children at the same time, when it comes to special effects, it will be the best Really worth the money.
She turned off the video, and there were already several folders on the screen that were annotated as in-progress.
…
Ning’s Group was officially established on August 21st that year, and on August 21st every year, the group headquarters will hold the company’s anniversary celebration. At that time, branches across the country will also select people to participate.
Father Ning came out in poor conditions back then. Although he has learned a lot over the years and has a wide range of knowledge, he is still the same him in essence.
He still does not understand what the current popular corporate culture construction is, and has never done compulsory team building. In this regard, he feels that he is on the same front as the employees. Except for the activities where he can earn some money by eating and drinking for free, most Who would like to participate?
As a result, under his leadership, Ning’s anniversary and annual meeting have also become well-known events among other companies.
Order a table of delicious food in the best hotel, the leaders don’t speak much, and the whole process draws lots of prizes. Never let anyone go back empty-handed. Every anniversary celebration is like a free one-day tour of C city. initiative.
This year’s anniversary event was also handed over to the company’s administrative department as in previous years. They were very experienced, so naturally Father Ning didn’t need to worry about it.
The president’s office is decorated in a Chinese style, with various thread-bound books on the mahogany shelves, and several decorations such as antique vases.
Every time Father Ning entertained his friends, someone would stop and praise him. Father Ning usually turned the subject away with a guilty conscience. After all, none of the antiques on this shelf were real.
Back then, a demonic wind suddenly blew up in his circle of friends. It seemed that anyone who didn’t collect some artworks and antiques would be very unrestrained. Occasionally, when they went out to eat, they would often chat at the dinner table, discussing auction items.
Father Ning believed that he knew nothing about this. He tried to research it, but he couldn’t tell the truth from the fake. In the end, he went directly to the street of antiques and bought some at random to put in the office to support the scene.
And at this moment, he was standing in front of his mahogany shelf, lost in thought.
“Mr. Ning.” Xia Shu was stunned as soon as he entered the room. He looked at the mahogany shelf and was speechless for a long time.
“You came just in time. Help me to see, is there something wrong? Why do I think something is wrong?” Father Ning saw Xia Shu’s eyes light up, and hurriedly beckoned him to come over.
It was the first time in Xia Shu’s life that his feet felt as heavy as lead.
The fake vases and shanzhai incense burners that were originally placed there are now randomly placed on the ground, and colorful figures have taken their place.
Xia Shu stared at the Violet Fairy Xia Xia figure located in the C position of this mahogany shelf, speechless.
These figures are limited edition figures of “Flower Fairy Magic Team”. Only 100 of each character were produced, and the number is engraved on the nameplate of the base.
The design drawing is a cartoon version of the character drawn by Ning Chuxia. Xia Shu specially found a factory that specializes in making figures and made them urgently with extra money.
Ning Chuxia also said at the time that this figure was too expensive and not necessarily sold. I did these mainly to keep a souvenir for myself, and I also wanted to give a copy to my father. At present, except for the batch number 001, it was given by Ning Chuxia’s hand. Father Ning, 002 and 003 are in the hands of Ning Chuxia and Xia Shu respectively, and the rest are still sealed in the warehouse.
Xia Shu knew that Ning Chuxia was going to give this gift, but he didn’t know that Father Ning would specially move all these figures to the office and put them on the shelf.
Try to imagine that there are antique and carved mahogany shelves, ancient books and potted plants are scattered in the grid, and the empty space is now occupied by figures, the size of which can almost fill the entire box, colorful and different shapes .
Can this violate peace?
Before Xia Shu could answer, Father Ning had already found the answer: “I know, it is estimated that this color matching is not suitable, and then I will find someone to replace it with a new display stand, and then get a good lamp, the effect will definitely be good. !”
Thinking of a solution, he surveyed the office with satisfaction, as if the rich peony picture behind the chair could actually be replaced with the poster of “Hua Xian Magic Team”, the pen holder on this table, he remembered the last time Xia Shu gave it There is also a peripheral pen holder in what comes.
Father Ning naturally knew that others might not appreciate his arrangement, but he has worked so hard for so many years, and now he doesn’t have to look at other people’s eyes.
He wanted to see more of the things his daughter sent him, should someone else take care of it?
Although Xia Shu felt that the chairman’s office had gone astray, he seldom questioned Father Ning’s decision, so he nodded in support at this moment.
Father Ning remembered what he wanted to say: “On the evening of the 22nd, you come to my house for dinner, and we will watch the premiere together.”
In the end, both TV stations agreed to the request for cooperation, and were willing to spare the time slot that had been arranged for other programs and animations to broadcast “Hua Xian Magic Team”.
Ning’s father and Xia Shu both thought that Ning Chuxia would choose the weekend after school, which would have more time for publicity, but they didn’t want her to choose No. 22, which was too late for publicity work.
However, after hearing Xia Shu’s retelling of Ning Chuxia’s reasons for choosing this time, Father Ning readily agreed.
Ning Chuxia said that school just started in September, she was afraid that she might not be able to come back in time for the weekend, and that Ning’s father might also be busy at that time. For her, “Hua Xian Magic Team” is a gift for herself and her father, at least The premiere, which she wanted to watch with her father.
And the premiere was set after the founding day of the Ning Group, she also felt that this was telling her father that she would have a career of her own.
This reason hit Father Ning’s heart at once, not to mention that he didn’t arrange work on the 22nd, even if it was a sea of swords and flames, he would have to rush back.
“Okay, by the way, President Ning, is Chu Xia still not planning to come to the anniversary?”
Tomorrow is the anniversary, and Xia Shu knows that Father Ning has been trying to convince Ning Chuxia to participate.
Speaking of this, Father Ning had a headache: “She still didn’t agree, but it is true that there are too many strangers to meet. You know that she finally got out of the circle she drew, and I don’t want to force her.”
Xia Shu pondered: “Maybe she needs a little more time?”
“Don’t talk about this, by the way, has the matter that I asked you to investigate now have a result?” Father Ning asked this question, and his expression became serious.
“The investigation is not going well.” Xia Shu frowned, “Chu Xia kept a low profile in the school, as if none of the clubs and student organizations participated, nor did they even register for social accounts…”
The last time he discussed with Father Ning, they both felt that the investigation should start at City C University, but neither of them wanted to start the investigation, so they let Xia Shu investigate in private.
Xia Shu has been asked by people he knows, but Ning Chuxia is like “air” in the school, and he is also a marginal person in the class. At least Xia Shu’s friends have not heard much news about him.
Father Ning’s expression has cooled down. He clasped his hands, as if thinking about something: “This sounds very suitable for Chu Xia’s personality. She doesn’t like to get together with people. You and I know that.”
Xia Shu knew that even though he and Ning Chuxia worked together for a summer vacation, the two were not very close. Ning Chuxia could really talk about everything in the crew, but it was the child actors.
“But that’s not quite right.” Father Ning sighed. The more recent he was, the more he realized that he was an irresponsible father.
It’s true that there is a generation gap with his daughter and a relationship with his daughter, but how can he use the excuse of being afraid of her daughter’s anger without even understanding her daughter’s situation?
He read a lot of books on pedagogy and child psychology, and said that if parents go to their children’s school to inquire about things in private with teachers and classmates, it is easy for their children to be seriously frustrated, but early summer is indeed different from ordinary children. It’s a lot better than Chu Xia’s injury at school.
“Actually, I think the problem doesn’t seem to be at school.” Xia Shu calmly said, “I thought about it carefully, Chu Xia always looked at her phone every time she was wrong. Before, we all thought that she was using her phone to contact her classmates at school, because she was on vacation. When you go home, you can’t make an appointment with people from all over the world, but what if they’re not friends from school?”
His imagination is quite rich. In the past, popular pen pals are now popular with netizens. What if?
Father Ning suddenly stretched out his hand, and a word Xia Shu said just now suddenly made him feel a sense.
“I only use a mobile phone to contact the whole world.” He suspected someone he didn’t suspect before. “In early summer, I had a very good friend. I used to go out every summer vacation to accompany each other, but this summer vacation, This friend of hers went abroad to play with her boyfriend, so she was left behind in early summer.”
Father Ning thought it was possible, but he felt helpless: “But if it’s really Yao Qianqian, then I really can’t help, after all, if the two of them are good friends for many years quarreling, I can’t go to her and tell her that she must We have to reconcile with Chu Xia? How can there be such a reason?”
But he can spend more time with his daughter and find something to divert her attention.
“Mr. Ning, do you mean Yao Qianqian?”
Father Ning thought that Xia Shu didn’t know him, and explained a little: “Chuxia’s high school classmate, a very good child, used to come to our house to tutor with Chuxia, and then the two children went to C City Middle School together to study a major, and now Still in a dorm.”
“How is this Yao Qianqian’s home?”
“I haven’t asked this, but the conditions are not particularly good.” Father Ning probably guessed based on the situation in his memory.
“That’s weird.” Since there is no money, there is no situation where Ning Chuxia spends ahead of time and asks friends to borrow money.
Father Ning asked, “What’s strange?”
“I took a look at Chuxia’s mobile banking. Except for the 30 million you transferred, the card was almost bottomed out. At that time, on the transaction details page, all the expenses were directed to this Yao Qianqian. They’re all big.”
This is a sophomore, where can I spend money?
“Could it be that Chu Xia’s friend’s home conditions are not good and need help? But why didn’t she tell me?” Father Ning was also surprised, “But if the conditions are not good, why go abroad to play? Besides, there should be no money in Chu Xia’s account. .”
Xia Shu also felt the same way. He spent every day with Ning Chuxia during the group, and found that she did not spend much money.
So it seems…
“Xia Shu, go check what’s going on with this Yao family.”
This situation is no longer right and he can’t ignore it. Father Ning’s decisive side is already exposed, his eyes are sharp.
…
It was already dark outside, and today was Ning’s anniversary.
Ning Chuxia lay lazily on the bed, looking at her phone relaxedly.
There are many reasons why she did not agree to go to the anniversary of the Ning Group.
First, changing the character setting is not an overnight thing. She has been autistic for 20 years, and it is unrealistic to be sunny and cheerful in a summer vacation. It is very tiring to go to a party to perform a play all night.
Second, the anniversary was full of people, and she didn’t want to let everyone know that she was the eldest lady of the Ning Group so early. Of course, things had to be done slowly.
In the end, of course, because that special day was coming soon, Ning Chuxia’s mobile phone screen displayed the calendar software, and the 22nd day had already been marked.
“Hua Xian Magic Team” premiered on TV, and someone offline will also perform a big play for her, which is not good, the two plays can be released simultaneously.
In a good mood, she casually sent a message to the WeChat account that had not responded to for a long time.
Click on the Moments, and sure enough Yao Qianqian just posted a Moments not long ago, with a full nine pictures.
@ Yao Qianqian: Sunshine, beach, warm summer and the people I love.
Ning Chuxia opened the photo and glanced at it. In the photo, Yao Qianqian was in high spirits. She probably came in and basked in a lot of sun. Her skin is slightly darker now, and half of Senior Ma’s figure appeared in the background.
It’s so sweet, it’s a pity it can’t be so sweet forever.
After finishing the routine of sending news, Ning Chuxia logged on Weibo. Xia Shu didn’t know what she was discussing with Ning’s father, as if she was worried that she would be bored after the filming of “Hua Xian Magic Team”, so she registered for “Flower”. Let her manage the official account of Fairy Magic Team.
It’s just that there are not too many fans on the account now – well, there are almost no active fans, and no one responds to a Weibo post for a long time.
But this is normal. After all, there are no famous actors in “Hua Xian Magic Team”. There are so many plays that are silently broadcast every year. Unless the broadcast response is good, generally no one will follow the official Weibo.
She routinely searched for relevant real-time information about “Hua Xian Magic Team”. The two cooperating TV stations cooperated very well. In the past few days, the trailer of “Hua Xian Magic Team” has been inserted after almost all programs. I can find a few pieces that wonder what kind of film this is.
Of course, there must be some inexplicable things, and I think it’s not as good as animation. Ning Chuxia didn’t take it seriously and dealt with it calmly.
But today is different.
Ning Chuxia was stunned for a moment. She just searched and found a lot of Weibo related to TV series.
@一盤happy social animal: Wow, there are toys in this year’s anniversary gift bag, hahaha, it’s a bit magical, what is “Flower Fairy Magic Team”? But although I haven’t heard of it, I think my niece will like this look.
@Single Happy Ball: I was a little confused when I saw the toy. I thought it was the group that took the lead in urging the marriage, but I think it’s normal. The things given every year for this anniversary are different, but there are no children around, no Knowing who to give it to, I don’t seem to have heard the movie “Flower Fairy Magic Team”.
@家有美秀女: My daughter keeps saying that I need to bring gifts when I go out. Today, I have this magic wand from “Flower Fairy Magic Team” in the anniversary gift bag. Although I don’t know if my daughter will like it, I’m still very grateful for this thought. , but I heard that everyone has it? The style of the purchasing department is really different this year.
…
She clicked on the homepages of the people who sent the news, and sure enough, she saw the familiar Ning Group in their workplaces.
She couldn’t help laughing, Father Ning really carried the propaganda to the end, and this Amway was sent to everyone.
The anniversary is not over yet. Father Ning sits in the audience. He only has the part of summarizing the speech. Now there are cross talk actors invited at a high price on the stage.
Father Ning thought it was interesting, and he held up his mobile phone to start recording. He is now much more comfortable with his daughter, and every time he sees something he is interested in, he will share it with his daughter.
After a few shots, Father Ning put down the phone with satisfaction. The group of senior executives sat on his table.
“Mr. Ning, why did we even give toys as an anniversary gift this time?” Someone on the table was curious, and the toy had a distinct style.
Father Ning wanted to answer with confidence, but he remembered what his daughter said when she was coquettish.
She said that she hopes to introduce her to others after the broadcast of “Hua Xian Magic Team”, not only because she needs time to adapt and learn to get along with people, but also because she hopes that she can at least do something, no matter whether she succeeds or not. No, at least I can tell.
In fact, why would he care if his daughter has achieved success? But he knew that Chu Xia really cared about this, so he followed his wishes.
“This is also one of my personal investments. I’ll say it when I’m waiting to conclude my statement.” Father Ning didn’t answer first. He glanced at his phone, and his daughter had already replied.
She seemed to be amused by the cross talk, and asked him what time he would go back, coquettishly telling him not to drink too much alcohol.
Father Ning’s face couldn’t help but be filled with a smile, and his heart was very ironic.
It’s a pity that Chu Xia was still a little shy when he was in front of him. Sometimes he couldn’t say such caring words directly, but it was better when he sent a message.
Father Ning’s heart is like an arrow. In the past, he always felt that time passed quickly for the anniversary, but today it is like a year.
If the Ning Group is also his child, then his partiality cannot be more obvious.
Fortunately, there are not too many aspects of the anniversary celebration. All the electronic products that should be drawn have been drawn. Even employees who did not win the gift will receive the bonus as a consolation prize, not to mention a whole set of Ning’s Group products. Gift package.
The boss is generous and the staff are enthusiastic.
Father Ning came to the stage with a round of applause, and he was very satisfied when he saw the crowd of employees.
As usual, Father Ning’s speech is still in three paragraphs, reviewing the ups and downs of the group in the past, based on the current situation of the group, and looking forward to the future.
“I believe that everyone has dismantled the peripheral toys of “Hua Xian Magic Team” in the anniversary gift bag today. If you don’t have it, remember to raise your hand and ask the administrator to supply her.”
Although I thought that what I should have said has been finished, it is not over, but the speech lasted for a short time, and everyone was very patient, and they also cooperated with the boss’s not so funny jokes and applauded enthusiastically.
“If no one raises their hand, I’ll assume everyone has it.” Father Ning nodded with satisfaction, “I’ve also heard a lot of people discussing this surrounding issue, don’t worry, I’m definitely not the kind of chatter that you think promotes marriage. Speaking of middle-aged people, do I look like this kind of person?”
Some employees booed and shouted no.
“The “Hua Xian Magic Team” is actually a project invested by me… personally and important people. It is a very interesting children’s TV series. I will advertise with you here, tomorrow night at 8:00 sharp , C City TV and Provincial Children’s TV are broadcast simultaneously on dual platforms, two episodes are broadcast simultaneously, everyone who is interested can show it, and those who are not interested, if you are willing to give me face, I don’t mind.”
Father Ning said it frankly, and the applause below became a piece.
Although everyone still has some doubts in their hearts, why would Father Ning invest in any children’s TV series – and what is a children’s TV series? Haven’t heard of this? But I still wrote down this time, and I plan to take a look or help with an advertisement when I have time.
Father Ning stepped down from the stage, which also means that tonight’s anniversary celebration has come to an end, and he is very satisfied with his speech.
He is the backing and resource of his daughter. He helps her advertise, which is not an advertisement at all.
By the way, he also has to send a copy in the circle of friends. In the name of this investment, he will definitely be happy if more people see his daughter.
Xia Shu, who also applauded, felt the phone vibrate, and when he saw the message, an embarrassed yet polite smile appeared on his face.
The person who sent him the message was Xiao Fang: “Xia Shu, did you help with this “Hua Xian Magic Team” last time?”
He also sent more than one sentence: “The quality is guaranteed, don’t worry, I will definitely stay in front of the TV!”
He stuffed the phone back into his pocket, and he was silent.
He actually didn’t react just now. Father Ning made an advertisement, which means that many people in the company will support it.
So what is the probability that a person named Xia Shu appears in a TV series that Father Ning claims to have invested in and it is not him?
Tomorrow’s things, let him worry about tomorrow.
…
It gets dark late in the summer, but at 7:40, it’s already dark.
Today was Saturday, and it was a private dinner. Xia Shu didn’t dress as formally as usual. He wore casual clothes and arrived at Ning’s house ahead of schedule.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Ning Chuxia and Father Ning who were sitting in the living room looking back at the same time.
The table in front of the sofa was emptied, and now there is an induction cooker and a table of cut vegetables.
Ning’s family had dinner later than usual tonight. Father Ning made the decision. He was afraid that the TV series would not be broadcast and his daughter would be nervous to eat, so he decided to watch and eat directly.
He asked Grandma Lin to prepare the hot pot, and the mandarin duck pot that he had before came in handy again, with bone soup and spicy pot, and all kinds of side dishes. In the afternoon, Father Ning drove the car to the seafood supermarket to buy some, what kind of lobster and abalone? The conch and shrimp are all prepared, not to mention the common hot pot side dishes such as fat beef and sheep.
When Xia Shu changed his shoes and went to the living room, he smelled the aroma of the room, but just sitting on the sofa beside the father and daughter, he noticed something was wrong with Ning Chuxia.
She clasped her hands tightly, as if uneasy, and she didn’t know where to look.
what’s the situation?
Are you so nervous about the TV show?
Father Ning noticed Xia Shu’s eyes, he followed it and explained to Xia Shu a little embarrassedly: “It’s my fault, didn’t I take Chuxia out to buy vegetables in the afternoon? As a result, at the seafood market, Chuxia’s mobile phone scared me. Gotta fall into the water.”
He thought that his daughter would start school in the future, so he wanted to spend more time with his daughter as long as he was at home. Before the father and daughter had gone shopping together to buy food, Father Ning took Ning Chuxia out in the afternoon.
The seafood in the C City Seafood Market is plentiful and fresh. Sometimes the style of the store is very rough. Sometimes a large foam box is filled with water, and the fish can be sold directly without an oxygen supply pipe.
Ning Chuxia was frightened by the fish that suddenly popped out of such a store. The phone immediately took off and fell into the water. When it was fished out, it couldn’t even turn on the phone.
“It’s already six o’clock when we come back, and it’s too late to fix the phone.”
“Don’t blame Dad, I didn’t hurry up.” Ning Chuxia replied with a smile, but everyone could see her anxiety.
Ning Chuxia is really not surprised, this is indeed an accident, she originally wanted to pretend to lose it, but now it seems more appropriate to break it.
Xia Shu noticed something was wrong. Ning Chuxia didn’t have any problem with being addicted to mobile phones. She only had to check her mobile phone at a fixed time, and then she would be affected by the mobile phone and feel depressed.
So… he glanced at the time, it’s almost eight o’clock, is this a special time?
“Xia Shu, I remember that there is a digital city near your house, right?” Father Ning reached out to Ning Chuxia to ask for a mobile phone, “Chuxia’s mobile phone will be hard for you to help repair, and I will have someone pick it up when the time comes.”
Father Ning didn’t want to search for the **** on his daughter’s mobile phone, he just wanted to know why his daughter was so irritable without a mobile phone.
Ning Chuxia stretched out her hand and was about to hand over her cell phone, and then she showed a bit of hesitation. When both of them had their eyes on her, she said, “But… what if someone wants to contact me and can’t get in touch with me? Does it have to be repaired until tomorrow?”
Father Ning and Xia Shu looked at each other, and he pretended to ask casually, “Chu Xia, are you in a hurry to use your mobile phone? Would you like to contact me first?”
In fact, there is an old mobile phone in his room, so he can let his daughter take out the sim card first to see if it can be used, but Father Ning never reminded him.
“I don’t remember the phone.” Ning Chuxia frowned, “She might not be looking for me.” She handed over the phone.
“Who is it? Does Dad know him?” Father Ning asked again.
Ning Chuxia was silent for a while, then smiled reluctantly: “Well, my father knows Qianqian. She went abroad to play before… I guess the signal is not good. She will find me when her signal is good.” He subconsciously grabbed the sofa, his fingernails rubbed, making a small but annoying sound.
When Father Ning heard this, the expression on his face was not very good.
Didn’t this friend of my daughter go on a trip with her boyfriend just after the summer vacation? At that time, Ning Chuxia talked about this matter, but there was no abnormality at all. Now it has been a month and a half, right? Does this mean you haven’t been in touch?
Bad signal? What age is it, you can’t get in touch with anyone for a month and a half after going abroad?
Father Ning found that he couldn’t achieve the so-called neutrality. If you really don’t want to be friends with Chu Xia, just say it directly, is it fun to hang her like this and let her foolishly wait for news every day?
Xia Shu, who had already held Ning Chuxia’s mobile phone, thought more.
What he actually thought was… Yao Qianqian didn’t run away with Ning Chuxia’s money, right?
Indebted to a huge debt, then cheated out of money? It seemed reasonable, he had to urge his friends to investigate whether Yao Qianqian’s family had followed him.
Although Ning Chuxia’s personality is very likely not to pursue the money, but Ning’s father and him have no such idea of charity.
The time has come to 8:00, and the “Hua Xian Magic Team” officially started broadcasting. The specially designed logo appeared in the center of the screen, and there were various flowers, poker and other symbols scattered next to it.
