Chapter 69 Diaoyutai State Guesthouse
Diaoyutai State Guesthouse is located on the east side of Yuyuantan, Beiping. Emperor Zhangzong of the Jin Dynasty, Wanyan Jing, once built a platform here for fishing. "Diaoyutai" was named after it. It has been more than 800 years. By the Qing Dynasty, Emperor Qianlong ordered the dredging of Yuyuantan and built a palace here to be built and collected as a royal garden. After the founding of the new Haitang Kingdom, it decided to build a State Guesthouse in Diaoyutai. While repairing the original royal garden, it also built 17 new modern reception buildings with different styles, equipped with indoor swimming pools, gyms, etc. The 17 buildings start from the south side of the center, and are in the counterclockwise direction. Each building is numbered with numbers. Among them, Building 1 and Building 13 are not set up to respect foreign customs.
Building 18, which is dedicated to foreign heads of state, is the most luxurious building in the building. Its appearance is a palace structure, with yellow glazed tiles on the roof, supplemented by green painted buildings. After the reform and opening up, Diaoyutai State Guesthouse gradually opened to the public. As long as there are no important foreign affairs reception tasks, people from all walks of life can stay at the hotel. Only Building 18, which is known as the Presidential Building, is an exception. It is still covered with a mysterious veil and has never been opened to the public.
Diaoyutai State Guesthouse mainly undertakes national foreign affairs activities. Its security level is very high. The gate is guarded by armed police and internal security personnel. In the courtyard, internal security personnel are often inspected. People entering the hotel must use their attendance documents and ID cards. The vehicle permits for the entry vehicles are authoritarian by Diaoyutai State Guesthouse, and the number of control is very strict. There are two gates open to the public on a daily basis: the north gate and the east gate. According to regulations, vehicles with red car licenses can only enter from the east gate, vehicles with blue car licenses can only enter from the north gate, and people walking to the venue can only enter from the north gate.
Xu Zhengdao was not clear about this, and the taxi driver didn't know it either. After all, people who went to Diaoyutai State Guesthouse often didn't take a taxi. Xu Zhengdao got out of the car and was stopped by the guards when he walked in. After reading Xu Zhengdao's invitation letter, the guard told him that he could only enter through the north gate and not enter the east gate. This was a state guesthouse, not other hotels, and the guards did not allow him to enter. Xu Zhengdao naturally did not dare to break in and could only walk towards the north gate.
The Diaoyutai State Guesthouse was much larger than expected. Xu Zhengdao walked for more than ten minutes before reaching the north gate. He handed his ID card and invitation letter to the guards, and after he checked, he walked into the hotel smoothly.
The hotel was surprisingly quiet. I wanted to ask the way and even people couldn't see it. Only the luxury car passed by. After walking for nearly twenty minutes, just when Xu Zhengdao complained that why it was not yet, the three golden words Fangfeiyuan finally caught my eye.
Fangfei Garden is Building 17, which occupies the heart of Diaoyutai, facing the large lawn in the south and the central lake in the north. This ping-shaped lake is the most open area in Diaoyutai. The important geographical location of Fangfei Garden is consistent with its functions, that is, it is a place for holding large-scale state banquets, banquets, state receptions, negotiations and performance activities. The negotiation hall in Fangfei Garden is even known as the No. 1 Negotiation Hall in Asia.
As a place where the State Guesthouse holds a cocktail party, Fangfeiyuan is naturally different from ordinary hotels. When you enter the door, you feel noble. The interior decoration and the pillars are painted with mud gold; the ground is made of stone parquet, and the giant peony in the center is nearly ten meters wide. The bright light in the hall is shining, brilliant and magnificent, which is simply dizzy. Xu Zhengdao really feels like Liu Laolao entering the Grand View Garden, and he doesn't know how to put it.
The coming-of-age ceremony has not begun yet. There are more than a dozen young people in the banquet hall, gathering together in groups of three or five, talking. People who are truly qualified will not arrive early, but will be stuck in the time. Even if they arrive early, they will not come to the banquet hall, but will rest in the lounge.
The young people at the scene were divided into two groups, which looked clear. There were five or six young people sitting on the left of the hall, dressed relatively low-key, and had the temperament of successful people. On the other hand, there were many people in the entertainment industry, including Su Chang, Huang Xiaomin and others, who were dressed relatively fashionable. Liu Yifei was wearing a white dress, surrounded by Huang Xiaomin and others, as if a white snow lotus bloomed in colorful flowers.
When Liu Yifei saw Xu Zhengdao, she raised her right hand and waved it at her. She trotted to him like a happy bird and shouted happily: "Senior Brother, you are here! I thought you had forgotten?"
Xu Zhengdao smiled and joked, "Do I dare not come? If our fairy sister is unhappy, she will stop acting. Wouldn't I have no heroine? Then won't "The Pancake Man" be ruined?"
Liu Yifei laughed and said, "I am not so stingy, so I won't stop acting. Those who stop acting are not good actors. Let me introduce my friends to you." As she said that, she took Xu Zhengdao excitedly to the hall.
"Who is this man? Liu Yifei is so enthusiastic, come and pick him up in person?" Just as Xu Zhengdao and Liu Yifei walked towards the center of the hall, a handsome man with gold-rimmed glasses frowned slightly.
The man's name is Zhong Shaoheng, who is the second son of the boss of Hengtong Real Estate Company. Hengtong Real Estate owner Zhong Youguang is a famous real estate developer in Peking City and is a friend of Chen Jingfei. He has heard of Liu Yifei's situation. After knowing that Chen Jingfei was going to hold an adult ceremony for Liu Yifei, he asked Zhong Shaoheng to bring a gift to the door and let his son come to contact with Liu Yifei. If Liu Yifei can be taken down, it will naturally be a great thing; if he can't, it will be a good thing to be able to become a friend.
Not only Zhong Shaoheng is like this, but the similar situation is the case for the rich second generation chatting with Zhong Shaoheng. The father asked them to bring gifts to the door, wanting to get in touch with Liu Yifei and see if there is any chance to catch her.
Most of these young people are not very interested in this matter, but they are not interested in Liu Yifei. A beautiful girl like Liu Yifei will be moved by a man. If Liu Yifei is not responsible, they are willing to let them go to the temple to burn incense and pray, but it is obviously impossible. Sleeping Liu Yifei means entering the grave of marriage, and the end of the day of having fun outside.
They all feel that they are still young and have not had enough fun, and do not want to be tied up by a woman early on. They are unwilling to give up a forest for a tree, even if the tree is a fairy sister.
Someone once asked online why Sicong always looked for internet celebrities instead of girls of equal status? In fact, Sicong's idea is the same as them. Internet celebrities can throw them away like used condoms when they are tired of sleep. Can girls of equal status be thrown away? Suppose Sicong slept with the second lady Qu Anna at the time of sleep, will he dare to throw Qu Anna away easily? He dares to do this, not only will Qu Zhengfei beat him, but his father's small target also won't let him go, and maybe he will be responsible and marry Qu Anna into the house.
A rich second-generation named Yan Ming, with peach blossom eyes next to him, smiled: "Brother Zhong is not jealous? At that time, you were known as the King of Cambridge Nightclubs in London, claiming to sleep in the five continents and four oceans. Are you suddenly turning aside and wanting to catch Liu Yifei, marry her home, and live a life of a warm kang with your wife and children?"
Zhong Shaoheng's eyes remained the same as Liu Yifei, showing a helpless expression: "I can't do anything either. My old man forced me to force me to chase Liu Yifei, and he said that he couldn't chase Liu Yifei, so he would freeze my bank account."
"It turns out that Brother Zhong really plans to chase Liu Yifei. I wish Brother Zhong gets what he wants as soon as possible, embrace the beauty and become a fairy brother-in-law." Yan Ming curled a sarcastic look on his lips, and then said gloatingly, "I think Liu Yifei is quite enthusiastic about that boy, maybe he will be moved by the ordinary heart. Our Zhong Daqingsheng may meet an opponent this time."
Zhong Shaoheng looked at Xu Zhengdao and showed disdain: "This kid looks ordinary, why should he be my opponent?"
Liu Yifei only knows a few rich second-generations, and is not very familiar with them. She doesn't know that they are talking about themselves. She brought Xu Zhengdao to Su Chang and the others and introduced with a smile: "This is director Xu Zhengdao, he is a graduate student of Beijing Film Academy. I have filmed an advertisement with Senior Brother Xu, and that advertisement is very interesting. Hehe. The advertisement will be broadcast next month, and you will see it. Next, I will collaborate with Senior Brother Xu in a movie, and I will play a girl who knows how to do Kung Fu in the movie."
Huang Xiaomin and the others felt a little strange when they saw Liu Yifei running to pick up Xu Zhengdao in person. Now they understand what's going on. It turned out that Xu Zhengdao was a director who worked with Liu Yifei and was about to collaborate on a new show. No wonder Liu Yifei was particularly enthusiastic about him.
Liu Yifei introduced everyone to Xu Zhengdao: "This is my best friend Su Chang, and my mother treats her as her goddaughter."
Xu Zhengdao smiled and stretched out his hand: "Hello, Su Chang. You are my idol, I grew up watching your show."
"No way, am I that old?" Su Chang debuted as a child star and has been acting in a show for more than ten years. Xu Zhengdao said that he grew up watching his own show, and it is really possible. She smiled and blinked at Xu Zhengdao, "I heard Xixi talk about you. He said you are a very powerful director, and he also said that you are so fierce."
Xu Zhengdao made an exaggerated expression: "No, I have always been famous for being kind and kind, how could it be very fierce?"
Liu Yifei smiled with a pursed lips, thinking that you are very fierce, even my mother dared to scold her, and then introduced the others to Xu Zhengdao: "This is Lin Zhiying. I played "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" with him. He played Duan Yu in the play, and I played Wang Yuyan."
"This is Huang Xiaomin, a senior brother from the 1996 class, who was from Zhao Wei and the others. Last year, I starred in "The Return of the Condor Heroes" with him. This TV series will be broadcast until the beginning of the year..."
Xu Zhengdao greeted everyone one by one and was very enthusiastic about stars such as Huang Xiaomin and Lin Zhiying. Youduoduo will soon start internal testing and will invite celebrities to settle in. Huang Xiaomin and Lin Zhiying are both popular stars. If they can settle in, it will definitely greatly increase Youduoduo's attention and attract a large number of fans to register.
Huang Xiaomin and his fellow attitude towards Xu Zhengdao are average. They think that directors are a profession that needs to be accumulated and cannot be obtained without ten or eight years. Xu Zhengdao is in his early twenties and is still studying for a master's degree in the film school, which is far from being able to make a comeback. Such a new director does not need to be deliberately pleased, and of course he cannot be looked down upon. Just deal with it in a normal state.
Seeing that everyone was not very enthusiastic about Xu Zhengdao, Liu Yifei immediately said, "Senior Brother Xu is amazing. His movie frightened the audience when it was screened at the Canadian Film Festival, and some people were sent to the hospital for treatment." Then he added: "Senior Brother Xu's new film "The Pancake Man" was jointly invested by him and Mr. Jiang Zhiqiang of Xiangjiang. There will be many celebrities participating in this movie, and even Mr. Zhou Xingchi of Xiangjiang will make guest appearances."
As soon as this statement came out, Huang Xiaomin and the others were shocked. Jiang Zhiqiang is the producer of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and "Hero", and they collaborated with directors at the level of Ang Lee and Chen Yimou; and Zhou Xingchi rarely made guest appearances in other people's movies. After becoming famous, he has guest appearances in three movies "A Night Banquet for the Rich Family", "Glass Bottle", and "King of Thousand Kings 2000".
