Chapter 373 Eating meat is unhealthy
Gu Ao made up his mind and had many business ideas with Ren Zhengyi, so he made an appointment to have a drink and chat at lunch.
Han Ting was very eye-catching. She took the opportunity to walk to Xiao Sui and whispered: "Ms. Xiao, if you are not interested in those business experiences, you might as well give each other a sense of freedom. I believe Xiao Gu will also relax."
Xiao Sui didn't think Han Ting was wrong, but instead felt that Teacher Han also understood Gu Ao's personality quite well.
Xiao Sui found a gap and whispered to Gu Ao: "Husband, I will arrange it myself at noon, you are busy."
Gu Ao was a little embarrassed at first: "I'll talk about business for a while."
Xiao Sui smiled generously: "It's okay, I'm not interested in these things, why should I stay and affect your work? I just heard you say that the pager is useless when it comes out of the main urban area. There is no signal, but I reminded me.
Or I'll give my pager to someone. During the days when you are in Hujiang, I'm with you anyway, so I don't have to call me alone. When you return to the United States after the meeting, it's a waste to put your pager on it, so I'll use it for me."
Gu Ao thought about it and it made sense. Xiao Sui's temper is quite home-based. He has a kind of jewellery in his family. He will not waste money even if he has money.
"Okay, then you can handle it casually. When I finish the meeting, I will leave this one for you. Frugality is also a virtue." Gu Ao advised him, "But have you decided to give it to whom? Should you give it to a good friend and classmate?"
Xiao Sui said with a slightly exaggerated expression: "What about 12,000 yuan? Why do you give it to your classmates casually? Even if I am willing to let them go, they won't dare to take it. I've used it for my mother. She often has time to make a movie and has no place to settle down. Having a pager makes it easier for me to find her."
Gu Ao thought, but he was negligent.
This is Xiao Sui's filial piety, of course it is appropriate.
Moreover, compared with white-collar workers in offices, art workers who often run around do need pagers. People who make movies also have relatively high incomes and will not be envied by their colleagues.
Gu Ao just said empathically based on the pain points of the era of information overload in later generations and the explosion of garbage information:
"Then you make arrangements for yourself, but I advise you to be low-key. Having a pager may not be a good thing. Maybe your work will be busier. The boss can easily find you, and the sudden overtime work will be on your head."
Xiao Sui was stunned and could not understand Gu Ao's meaning at all.
It is impossible to understand that the gap between purchasing agents is too big.
Those IT practitioners in later generations don’t want to turn off their phones after work and block WeChat, and try to prevent others from finding themselves.
Who can understand this kind of pain in an era when communication is extremely scarce?
Gu Ao’s reminder is not to show off, but to be sincere.
But when others listen, they feel awkward.
A bit like a fat man with high blood lipids and high blood pressure, he reminded him from the heart to heart that he had been hungry for half a month: Brother, fat meat is harmful to health! Never eat big fat meat! Be sure to spit it out, just ** meat!
...
Xiao Sui came out of Zhaolong Hotel and wanted to take a taxi home by herself so as not to be too eye-catching.
But Gu Ao's bodyguard insisted on driving there, saying it was Gu Ao's order because everyone around him might be targeted by agents of Brittania.
Xiao Sui no longer insisted.
The only thing she could do was to choose a Mercedes-Benz that was usually opened and used by the bodyguards, which was not used by Gu Ao. After all, what if Gu Ao had another business to go out for a car at noon.
At the same time, this can be as low-key as possible.
The road was so empty that it was just over ten minutes.
The Xiao family’s house was originally one of the dormitory areas of Hujiang Film Studio. In other words, a considerable number of film factory employees’ houses are divided into this area, but there are also people from other units mixed together. Most of the housing distribution policies before the 1980s were like this.
During the Chinese New Year, Xiao Sui's stepmother Su Ping also took a vacation, but her colleagues would come around to greet the New Year.
Especially Su Ping has good conditions here. Although the house is the same as everyone else, she has all kinds of electrical appliances. It is normal for her to visit more colleagues. Some people also bring their children at home to Su Ping and watch imported films by taking Sony videos.
Although Xiao Sui didn't understand her husband's reminder just now, she was still willing to act unconditionally according to her husband's instructions, for fear that her mother's colleagues would really lead to her busier work in the future after her mother had a call, so she did not show off.
When she saw a guest, she greeted him politely: "Mom, I'm back, I'll bring you some small things. Hello Uncle Xu, Aunt Liu, and Aunt Zhang."
"Oh, isn't this Xiaosui? I'm back. Didn't your mother say that you have been out for a few days? I haven't seen you go out for a year and become more and more erotic."
The person who spoke was the middle-aged woman who Xiao Sui called "Aunt Liu". She is Liu Yan, the wife of producer Xu Ling. She has visited her family for the New Year with her husband for the New Year.
"Aunt Liu laughed. I'm not that. I'll go out for a trip tomorrow." Xiao Sui was a little embarrassed and quickly explained.
She knew that her mother said she was traveling because she lived with Gu Ao these days and was making excuses for not going home. After all, it was not something that could be praised.
Liu Yan didn't realize it: "What good things should I bring to your mother? What Suizi brought back must be rare things. Who doesn't know your little Gu Da's ability? Let's open your eyes together."
Xiao Sui remembered her husband's teachings and was lost for a moment. She was hesitant and slow for a few seconds, afraid of causing trouble for her mother.
Su Ping didn't know why she was hesitating, so she took it openly and unpacked it herself.
"Oh..." Xiao Sui wanted to stop him, but didn't know how to organize the speech.
"What is this?" Su Ping read it repeatedly, and even briefly read the summary on the instruction manual, but still didn't recognize it.
Xu Ling, Liu Yan, and several other female colleagues, heard that Su Ping didn't recognize him, so he hurried over to watch the fun.
Even if it is a rare thing that cannot be used, at least I have seen it, and I can still brag about showing off my experience when I go home.
After developing this, Xiao Sui could only tell him bluntly: "This is called a pager, or a beeper or caller in English. If someone calls you, the machine will flash the light and ring. This model is the most advanced Motorola, bringing digital display."
Everyone looks at me, I look at you. Although they understand every word Xiao Sui said, it is indeed Chinese, but they still can't turn their minds and have no idea about the application scenarios.
"Then what's the use of this function?" Liu Yan asked bluntly.
Xiao Sui explained speechlessly: "...that's right, you can know if someone is looking for you, and then go back to the phone as soon as possible."
In contrast, Xu Ling was the leader. He was the production director of the factory a few years ago, and now he has been promoted to the deputy director of the studio. He has a high awareness and immediately reacted:
"Yes, this thing is very useful for individual bosses who often run around, work and business are tight, and business opportunities are fleeting. People who are factory managers should also prepare one."
While saying that, he took it over and looked at it for two seconds without hesitation, and exclaimed: "Tsk tsk, I haven't seen it before. What is it called a new product of Motorola? It seems to be an American company that is coming to our city to attend an international academic conference recently? It's high-tech, it should be very expensive, and it's not that the boss can't afford it."
Xiao Sui explained: "Uncle Xu is really knowledgeable. Motorola is an American brand. You may not know that Hujiang is now the first city in China to open its paging platform business. Motorola's wireless paging network was just initially set up a few days ago. The first batch of pagers were also sent by Motorola's company yesterday. My Xiao Gu was also personally sent by Motorola's President Galvin."
All Su Ping's colleagues were in awe: Xiao Sui's machine was delivered by the boss of a large American company in person!
"This... is a gift from Motorola's boss himself? Then this batch must be the highest-end one, right? If you buy it, how much will it cost?" Xu Ling couldn't help but want to inquire.
Even if you can't afford it, as long as you know the market, you can still brag in front of others.
The poor who can’t afford it, and the price is higher than the poor who don’t know the price, and even don’t know the existence of this thing. The poor are divided into different levels.
Xiao Sui: "It's the highest-end one. If you buy this one at the Post and Telecommunications Bureau next month, it should be priced at 12,000 yuan. However, there is also a cheaper price of about 4,000 yuan, but there is no screen and the call number cannot be displayed. There is only ringtone. You have to call the paging station customer service and report your own number to her to check the call number for you."
"Hiss" everyone gasped.
It was a hundred times more shocking than when Xiao Sui heard about this price.
If you have more money than a ten thousand yuan household, you can buy a caller ID.
How important is this matter? Only the big boss who has the most valuable business opportunities need such things.
Xu Ling felt that as the deputy director of Hujiang Film Studio, buying more than 4,000 people without screens would be decent enough.
Unless there is a wealthy movie businessman in Hong Kong who is willing to give him one when he is co-production, he doesn't mind getting 12,000...
Unfortunately, no one of the friends in the Xiangjiang film industry whom he knew had such a strong relationship and was willing to give him such expensive things.
Xu Ling didn't dare to think, and the actors, screenwriters and technicians in other factories were even more afraid to think.
Xu Ling sighed, carefully put the things back on the packaging box, and teased to Xiao Sui, "Suizi, you are not righteous now. You won't open your eyes on such a good thing. I just wanted to sneak away from us for your mother. We have been in love for so many years, who would be jealous of your family?"
Xiao Sui was a little bit unfamiliar with inside and outside, so she could only explain: "I don't mean that, I was taught a lesson by my family just now, and I felt a little confused. He said that in the United States, big bosses kept their calls in private, and only knew about them for important relatives, friends and customers.
Of course I am not guarding you, Uncle Xu. You are the most sympathetic at work. But I am afraid that there will be more people who know that my mother has a call machine, and everyone will be beaten in the future, and there will be no peace at home, and I will be fired after get off work. I want to be filial to her and be more idle..."
Xu Ling and others stared at the dog's belt.
What kind of thinking state is this?
"I have always heard that Americans really get sick after eating meat every meal. Today I believe it. If we Chinese have meat, we will eat a pig for you!
Oh my God, if I were given a call machine, I wouldn’t want it to be 24 hours a day, and I would be ashamed to not sleep. Who would think about ‘disturbing and resting’?”
They have confirmed that the other party is not really pretentious, but that the state is two dimensional walls.
