Chapter 75 is full of awesome units.
Singing has become increasingly popular in recent years, with numerous hit songs from Hong Kong and Taiwan sweeping across the country. This has provided ample performance material for college students, who express their youth with either deep emotion or passion.
Dancing was all the rage in the early 90s, when breakdancing was all the rage. It was said that the whole country was into breakdancing. As a young person, you were embarrassed to go out without a pair of gloves that showed your fingers. Dances like wiping windows, pulling ropes, electric shocks, and moonwalks drew enthusiastic applause and cheers from the students in the audience.
When the host, Comrade Wang Xiaohong, took the stage to sing, more than an hour had passed, and it was almost 8:30. The evening reached its climax, and even the teachers and leaders sitting in the front row clapped and smiled, cheering for the students.
The performance preceding Wang Xiaohong was a crosstalk by two junior college boys. In the early 90s, crosstalk was plummeting from its peak. Many crosstalk performers were unemployed and begging for food, and many traditional opera performers changed careers. Traditional drama was being overwhelmed by Hong Kong and Taiwan pop culture and was powerless to fight back. Although the two boys had prepared a lot of jokes and tried their best, there was still a slight lull in the audience.
Wang Xiaohong then went on stage and sang a song, immediately receiving applause from the entire audience.
After the song "My Future Is Not a Dream" was finished, quite a few students started chanting for an encore. After a few shouts, the whole audience was chanting for an encore, which made the next group of three-and-a-half-line performers who were standing by the stage waiting to go on stage a little disappointed.
Chen Shulan urgently consulted her advisor, who then turned to the principal for a decision. The principal waved his hand and said, "Then let's sing it."
As a result, our classmate Wang Xiaohong became the only student in the entire evening to sing two songs, which was unparalleled and made her the center of attention.
As a result, it wasn't until the party ended that they discovered the entire roll of film had been wasted in the excitement of Chen Hui.
When the music ended and everyone dispersed, it was almost 9:30 when Wang Xiaohong finished tidying up and came out. The entire campus had already fallen silent again, with only the northwest wind sweeping across the lake, shaking the treetops and making a sharp whistling sound. Occasionally, a few students and teachers would walk by, clutching their collars and running with their heads down.
"Look at the sky, it looks like it's going to snow tomorrow, it's so gloomy, and the wind is so strong," said Xiao Wei, who was looking up at the sky with his neck hunched over.
Xia Maosheng also shrank back and clutched his collar, saying, "How could it rain so early? It's just that there's a lot of water here. It won't be this cold in the city. You're just imagining things."
Xiao Hong, Chen Xiao, and Wang Lu ran out of the auditorium, exclaiming, "It's so cold tonight! Why weren't you waiting inside?"
Xiao Wei took off his coat, put the small red envelope in his hand, and said, "Everyone's already out here. I didn't expect you to be so slow. Let's hurry up, the wind is raging."
Xiaohong tugged at her clothes to make herself more comfortable and said, "The teacher talked about something else. Let's go home and have some hot soup. Are you hungry? Let's all go home and eat something before we go back."
Chen Hui finally had a chance to shine. He handed the camera to Xia Maosheng, silently took off his coat and draped it over Chen Xiao, who was holding him, saying, "Put this on. Mine is thicker, so you don't catch a cold. Hurry up, we'll be fine after we cross the bridge. This is the lower reaches, and the wind is too strong."
There was no time for formalities. Having just come out of the steamy auditorium, they were indeed shivering from the cold. Chen Xiao put on Chen Hui's clothes, without even zipping them up, and wrapped himself up tightly with Wang Lu. They walked out of the school together in the middle of a group of people.
Xiao Hong, wearing Xiao Wei's coat, snuggled into his arms. However, she didn't seem as cold as she appeared. It was her first time hosting a show, and she had even sung two songs on stage. She was still full of excitement and enthusiasm.
A group of people jogged out of the north gate of the engineering college and ran towards the bridge. Beyond that was the main entrance of Nanhu Park, where the trees were tall and numerous, and beyond that were buildings, where the wind would definitely be much less. The northwest wind blew from the side of the group, tearing at everything in its path and howling. Fortunately, it wasn't a head-on blow, so the group was able to chat and laugh as they walked quickly.
After crossing the bridge, the wind did indeed subside considerably. After bypassing the park's main entrance and entering the small road near the buildings, the wind was even stronger, and everyone slowed their pace. Chen Xiao turned to Chen Hui and said, "I'm not going any further. You can take your clothes back." As she spoke, she began to take off her clothes.
Xiao Hong said from the side, "Go get something to eat, have some hot soup, sit for a while before going back, it's not far anyway. Your family must be asleep by now, right? Will you be able to sleep if you go back?"
Chen Hui chuckled and agreed, "Yeah, yeah, let's go sit for a while and calm down before going back. Don't catch a cold from this sudden change in temperature. Anyway, it's close by."
Chen Xiao looked at Wang Lu, nodded, and said, "Alright then, let's go sit down for a while."
They made a rumbling sound as they walked downstairs. Before they even entered the building entrance, a Cedric sedan silently pulled up to the doorway. Old Chen got out, turned to look at everyone, and asked, "Where have you been so late?"
Chen Hui said, "I went to the engineering school to watch the gala. Dad, why are you only coming back now? Have you eaten yet?"
Old Chen nodded to Xiao Wei and said, "I have a meeting. I'll eat at the office. You should go home early." After saying that, he picked up his briefcase, turned around, and went upstairs. The Duke started up, turned around, and drove away.
When Old Chen's footsteps reached the second floor, Xia Maosheng whispered to Chen Hui, "Isn't your dad's car the same construction vehicle from that day?"
Chen Hui said, "That day we were dealing with an accident, so of course we were in an engineering vehicle. This is my dad's official car, but unfortunately I wasn't allowed to ride in it."
Xiao Wei laughed and said, "Your dad wants you to save up the money to buy it yourself." Everyone laughed. A Cedric Royal costs close to 500,000 yuan these days, which is really expensive.
Chen Xiao glanced at Chen Hui and said, "What's your dad doing at the power bureau? He's a duke, while my dad only drives a Santana."
Chen Hui scratched his head and said, "They're just ordinary cadres, senior in rank, that's all. Besides, your postal and telecommunications sector isn't as wealthy as our power industry, is it? We don't seem to have many Santanas here, I've hardly ever seen one."
Chen Xiaobai glanced at Chen Hui, then took Xiao Hong's hand and went upstairs with a large group of people.
The room was heated, and the heat hit everyone as soon as they entered. Everyone hummed comfortably. Chen Xiao said, "It's so infuriating! We won't get gas until the end of October, and it's already hot here. Why is that?" As she spoke, she took off Chen Hui's coat and threw it into his arms.
Chen Hui chuckled as he put on the clothes that still carried Chen Xiao's warmth and fragrance, saying, "We're rich, so it doesn't matter if we burn money for another month or two. The coal yard wouldn't dare to stop supplying us no matter what."
Xia Maosheng said, "This is the ugly face of a monopolistic industry; nobody dares to offend them."
Chen Hui pointed at Chen Xiao and said, "Isn't her family's postal and telecommunications company a monopoly too? And their monopoly is even more severe than ours in the power industry. We still have civilian and regional networks."
Xia Maosheng said, "Nonsense. You manage and collect fees all by yourself. They can only squeeze a little money out of you when they generate electricity, and they still have to be subservient to you. You guys are powerful, controlling everything from top to bottom. Although the postal and telecommunications industry is also a monopoly, it only controls ordinary people and doesn't really squeeze out much profit. There are too many places that can be controlled, unlike you, who can't control anyone."
Xiao Wei said, "To me, you are all awesome people and awesome companies, so stop showing off. You guys go and help my wife make dinner."
Everyone laughed and got up. Several chefs went to the kitchen to prepare the food. Xiaowei and Chen Hui sat there chatting with Chen Xiao and Wang Lu. After a while, Xiao Hong was also ushered out. She wiped her hands with a smile and sat down next to Xiaowei.
