National Beer

"Dad, I changed my name." Du Xiaoshu raised his foot and kicked a stone far away, and said to Du Yuan grinning.

change name?Du Yuan looked at him in surprise, "What was changed, and who made it for you?"

"From now on, I will not be called Du Xiaoshu. My name is Du Xiaolong!" Du Xiaoshu listened to the sound of the waves in the distance, looked at the stars on the sea under the night, and said proudly, "I changed it myself!"

Qin Dong, who was by the door, smiled. He picked up a bottle of beer and opened the lid with his teeth. Du Xiaoju walked over silently and handed him a handful of dried shrimps.

"Du Xiaolong, does it sound good?" Qin Dong asked with a smile.

Du Xiaoju glanced at him without saying a word, and walked back behind the counter, crackling his calculations.

"This kid is possessed." Qin Dong said as he walked towards the two men.

Du Xiaoshu now opens a video room, which can be said to be a channel of popular culture. Through the works shown in the video room, countless young people have observed and felt the humanities and scenery "outside the window".

Video tapes and discs have also brought a prosperous, imaginative and energetic Hong Kong in its entirety.

Since then, the popular culture of Hong Kong and Taiwan has widely influenced the mainland, and these values ​​in film and television works have also invisibly influenced the lifestyle and life goals of countless people.

"Dad, there are four little dragons in Hong Kong, Bruce Lee, Liang Xiaolong, Jackie Chan, and Ti Lung. I will be called Du Xiaolong from now on." Du Xiaoshu learned Bruce Lee's appearance, jumping and punching like a boxing. "Hey...Ouch!"

Qin Dong chuckled, even Du Xiaoshu sat on the ground without seeing it clearly.

Du Yuan put down his legs, took out the cigarette, and disdainfully said, "What are the four little dragons, the four insects are similar, you let them try with the police?" The sea breeze was too strong, he turned to light the cigarette, "Well, you have to change the name, okay , You just call Xiaolongxing!" A puff of smoke came out refreshingly, "You bought four video cameras for more than four thousand yuan, and you will pay back my and your mother's money now..."

"Xiaolong?" Du Xiaoshu thought about it, Du Yuan would not let him follow his father's name.

"I will pay you back when I earn it. I will earn five cents in the morning in the morning, and one dollar overnight, and I will earn it back soon," Du Xiaoshu said, stalking his neck.

"You were born to me!" Du Yuan suddenly yelled, and after a few puffs of cigarettes, he threw the cigarette on the ground. "Uncle, your blood pressure is high, don't get angry." Qin Dong hurriedly stopped to take it. Ear scraping to smoke his son's Du Yuan.

Du Xiaoshu wanted to go but didn't dare to go. Du Yuan was so angry that he didn't hit the spot, and shouted, "Listen, go to your class well in the future, don't engage in such nonsense. What are the four dragons? These are little rascals. You can get these four dragons together again and watch me catch them all into the classroom... Dadong, take the house back and light the things in this video room and set fire to me It's..."

The four dragons are little rascals. Qin Dong laughed dumbly and let Du Yuan into the hotel. Du Xiaoshu also followed with a smile. It is not that he has never seen Du Yuan get angry. "Brother Dong, the video studio is really making money, look at me. This video room costs dozens of dollars a day for everything. On Sundays, it costs more than 100 dollars a day. This month, it costs more than one thousand dollars. Dongge, Zhongjiawa’s house..."

"Aren't you called Xiaolong," Du Xiaoju settled the accounts, cracking his abacus. "Who are you talking to? Do we know you?"

"sister--"

"I'm not your sister, who do you like to be your sister." Du Xiaoju didn't bother to care about him.

"Hey, it's all here." In the noisy and lively restaurant, Lu Xuguang rushed in with a package on his back, "Oh, my goodness, business... also, it's still so hot, Dadong, look, I... What did you bring?..."

Lu Xuguang was promoted to the deputy chief of the sales department of the general plant. Qin Dong is not a man of his own accord. Lu Xuguang’s small business in Ink Street started with selling matchstick soap and needles, but now he has started working on clothing and footwear. His parents usually help him with his business in Ink Street.

"Let's go to the backyard. Haven't eaten yet, Sister Liu, come here to get two dishes." Qin Dong ordered the newly hired waiter in the shop.

"You... don't tell me, I really forgot." Lu Xuguang followed Qin Dong to the west wing, opened the zipper of the parcel and took out a few pieces of bread clothes, "Look, I bought the goods from Shanghai. People in Shanghai wear this..." He took out several pairs of sneakers, "Nike..."

Qin Dong smiled. The weather became cold in October. He stepped on his sneakers and was very comfortable.

Du Xiaoshu also followed, he was still begging Qin Dong, "Brother Dong, my video studio really makes money..."

Du Xiaoshu was still yelling at him, Lu Xuguang pulled Du Xiaoshu over, picked up a bread suit and gestured on him, "Fuck you... Then, that's your sister and your brother-in-law's new house... Just, just, just you. Some money is not enough for me to earn an hour..."

Lu Xuguang is really not bragging. Since the early 1980s, the prosperous miracle of the "road market" began to be performed here. The first batch of 10,000-yuan households in Qinwan were born here, and the first batch of 100,000-yuan households and millionaires were also born here. Step out from here one after another.

"Your video room, it costs more than one thousand yuan a month. Follow me to set up a stall in Ink Street and earn you two people a month..."

Du Xiaoshu suddenly wilted and turned from a dragon to an insect.

Lu Xuguang patted his head with confidence, "Now beer is easy to sell, and all of my money is small. Your brother-in-law earns hundreds of thousands or hundreds of thousands a year. You don’t know, your brother-in-law has contracted for the second branch factory. Thousands of thousands, the rest is your own?"

Oh, Du Xiaoshu's eyes lit up.

"You fiddled with your broken video hall, what... mean, ah... follow your brother-in-law!"

Hearing Lu Xuguang's brother-in-law opening her mouth and closing her brother-in-law, Du Xiaoju followed in with a smile, but she didn't correct it. Lu Xuguang also brought her a bread jacket, a new style in orange tones, and the same sneakers, very fashionable. .

"Dadong, let's get a lot of money. Give you the money later, and you can give us the wholesale price."

"You... slap me in the face!" Lu Xuguang stared at his big eyes, picked up the wine bottle, "Don't take a penny, don't pull it down!"

"Yes, why not?" Du Xiaoshu put on sneakers and looked at the sneakers on his feet. The edges of the shoes were torn, so he simply threw them away.

Seeing his son's heart, Du Yuan muttered unhappily, "There are new ones that don't wear the old ones, so you should wear them sparingly..."

...

In Qinwan in the 1980s, there was no later nightlife. After nine o'clock in the evening, people were already at the table space in the hotel. Two waiters packed their things, and Qin Dong and Du Xiaoju walked out side by side.

"Tomorrow I should go back to class." Qin Dong gently embraced Du Xiaoju's waist. The night was dim. Du Xiaoju did not struggle. She leaned on Qin Dong and Ren Haifeng blew her long hair.

"Well, one month, don't worry, I have me at home."

...

Before going to Shen Nan, Qin Dong had to arrange his home and his work.

"... Trade unions and Communist Youth League organizations at all levels cooperate with the ideological and political education of employees, carry out labor competitions, technical contests, innovative inventions, special contests and various forms of cultural and sports activities to further strengthen the construction of the workforce and improve the political and professional quality of employees. Enrich the lives of employees..."

In the conference room, Qian Yimin was delivering documents from his superiors, and Huang Bo quietly approached Qin Dong, "The factory manager, the main factory called and asked you to come to the district for a meeting immediately, saying that District Chief Liang called you to participate. ."
