Zhang Ran stood at the door of Zhang Jingchu's house with a large bag of gifts in his hand. After Zhang Jingchu knocked on the door, her mother Cheng Xinyue opened the door.

"Mom, I'm back." Zhang Jingchu said hello, then pulled Zhang Ran's arm and introduced shyly, "This is my boyfriend Zhang Ran!"

"Hello, auntie, my name is Zhang Ran!" Although Zhang Ran had not seen Cheng Xinyue, he had seen her photos and said politely.

"Okay! Come in, come in quickly." Cheng Xinyue knew Zhang Ran and knew that he was in love with his daughter. But she didn't expect him to come and greeted in a hurry. Then she looked at Zhang Jingchu and complained: "Zhang Ran is coming, why don't you say anything, we are not prepared at all!"

Zhang Jingchu laughed and said, "Didn't you want to give you a surprise!"

"Is Jingchu back?" The voice of a middle-aged man came from the room.

"Yes, Jingchu, I'm back, and Zhang Ran!"

After Cheng Xinyue said the words, the room was quiet, and then a middle-aged man walked to the living room. It was Zhang Jingchu's father Zhang Zuyi. He looked at Zhang Jingchu, looked at Zhang Ran again, and smiled and said, "It's good to come back, Zhang Ran is here too. Come, sit down!"

When Zhang Ran and the others entered the living room, Cheng Xinyue asked at this time: "By the way, have you eaten? Why don't you make some for you?"

Zhang Ran was indeed a little hungry, but after all, he was not too casual when he came to Zhang Jingchu's house for the first time. He hurriedly said, "Thank you aunt, no need, I'm not hungry!"

Zhang Jingchu glared at Zhang Ran, held Cheng Xinyue's arm and acted coquettishly: "Mom, he is not hungry, I'm hungry, we got off the plane and rushed home, and we didn't even eat!"

Zhang Jingchu never said that when she came back. How could Cheng Xinyue not understand her daughter’s little thoughts and immediately said, “Then I’ll cook for you, and you can sit for a while!”

Zhang Ran followed Zhang Jingchu into her room, put down her luggage, took out the gifts prepared by her parents, walked to the living room, and handed the gifts to Zhang Zuyi.

When Zhang Zuyi heard that it was a gift brought by Zhang Ran’s parents, he was not polite. After thanking him, he began to ask about the situation at Zhang Ran’s family. Zhang Ran is a celebrity, and there are reports on his family’s situation in the newspaper, but Zhang Zuyi felt that he had asked in person to be more at ease.

Zhang Ran naturally answered truthfully and said everything he should have said.

Zhang Zuyi is a driver in the automobile transportation company and is knowledgeable. Zhang Ran is a teacher and a director, and is a very tricky person. The two soon started chatting.

The two talked a lot, from history and military to political economy, from Iraq to Venezuela, and every time they talked about a topic, they could chat happily. When Cheng Xinyue greeted Zhang Ran and the others for dinner, Zhang Zuyi had to hold back the topic: "You go to have a meal, let's talk after you finish it!"

At six o'clock in the evening, Zhang Jingchu's brother Zhang Jingyu came over with his wife. He knew that Zhang Jingchu came back with Zhang Ran and came here specifically.

After a brief understanding, Zhang Jingyu said to Zhang Ran with a serious expression: "Zhang Ran, I am a straightforward person. If you say something wrong, don't blame me. To be honest, I am opposed to Jingchu's dating you. I hope she finds an outsider. The entertainment industry is too chaotic and tempting. Look at the domestic directors, how many people can end up together. However, Jingchu really likes you very much, and I can't say anything, just hope you don't let her down!"

Zhang Jingchu pursed and said, "Brother, what are you talking about!"

Zhang Ran felt that this was probably not just Zhang Jingyu's meaning, but also Zhang Jingchu's parents' meaning. If this question is not answered well, it is unlikely to get real recognition. He said sincerely: "You are right. The entertainment industry is very chaotic, there are conspiracies, deceptions, and various unspoken rules. But which circle does not have such a thing? Ang Lee and his wife have been respectful for decades. The key is people. No matter what others think, I believe in love and the beauty of the human world! I like Jingchu, and I hope to keep going with her!"

Zhang Jingyu and Zhang Zuyi looked at each other and nodded slightly, and were still satisfied with this answer.

On New Year's Eve, watching the Spring Festival Gala is always an indispensable project. This year's Spring Festival Gala Zhang Ran and Zhang Jingchu's family watched it together. At 8 o'clock, Zhang Ran's mother Huang Ying called, and after saying a few words to Zhang Ran, she asked Zhang Ran to hand the phone to Zhang Jingchu's mother and started chatting. As a result, they couldn't stop talking and chatted for more than an hour.

When they finished their call, Wu Ruide and his friends called and complained to Zhang Ran that your phone was too difficult to call!

On the morning of the first day of the lunar month, relatives of Zhang Jingchu's family came to visit. Zhang Jingchu's family was a big family, with 11 brothers and sisters, and Zhang Jingchu had many cousins ​​and cousins. Zhang Jingchu couldn't help but introduce Zhang Ran: "This is the second uncle, second aunt, third uncle, third aunt, eldest aunt, eldest uncle..."

Every time Zhang Jingchu introduced one, Zhang Ran would greet him very politely: "Hello Uncle Second, Aunt Second..." After a circle of relatives met, Zhang Ran's tongue was a little numb, and then Zhang Jingchu began to introduce her brothers, sisters, brothers and sisters: "This is my cousin Zhang Jingping, this is my cousin Zhang Jingyu, this is..."

Zhang Jingchu's brothers and sisters are all adults, and they are relatively calm and have nothing to say to Zhang Ran.

However, Zhang Jingchu's younger brothers and sisters were either high school students or college students, and were very curious about the great director Zhang Ran. A group of people chatted around Zhang Ran and kept talking, pestering Zhang Ran about filming and anecdotes about celebrities.

"Brother-in-law, I like Fan Binbin. Can you help me get an autograph?"

"I heard that Liu Yifei is your apprentice, isn't it true?"

"Huang Shengyi, who plays the mute girl in "Kung Fu", is your student. What is she like in normal times?"

Zhang Ran said everything he knew and told many interesting stories, which made these middle school students stunned. In less than half an hour, whether it was Fan Binbin’s fans or Liu Yifei’s fans, they have now become Zhang Ran’s brainless fans.

Zhang Jingchu's cousin Zhang Jingxin is 18 years old and an art student. This year, she is preparing to take the exam at the Central Academy of Fine Arts. At the end of February, she got to take the exam in Peking. This time her parents came here, in addition to visiting relatives, and wanted to ask Zhang Jingxin to let Zhang Jingxin live there and help take care of her.

Of course, Zhang Jingchu has no problem, but she has the final say in this matter. Zhang Ran has no problem, isn't your cousin my cousin!

However, when Zhang Ran heard that Zhang Jing was trying to take the Central Academy of Fine Arts, he remembered that Zhang Jingchu said that Peking was also going to the Central Academy of Fine Arts. However, later he realized that his professional foundation was relatively weak, and the possibility of being admitted to the Academy of Fine Arts was too small, so he had to give up this idea. By chance, Zhang Jingchu met Mr. Niu Xinci of the Central Academy of Fine Arts, and under the guidance of the old lady, he successfully passed the directorship department of the Central Academy of Fine Arts.

Seeing Zhang Jingxin carrying a painting clip on her back, Zhang Ran said, "Show me your painting!"

Zhang Jingxin glanced at Zhang Ran and handed the painting clip to Zhang Ran with a red face. She was a fan of Zhang Ran, and she couldn't help but feel a little nervous when she heard that her idol wanted to see her paintings.

Zhang Ran opened the painting clip and looked at it, nodding slightly: "The lines crossed and covered, the sense of space and texture are good, just like the female model's face portrayal. The lines are very soft and curved, which makes the girl's facial skin look very outstanding, and it is much better than your sister's drawing! Come on, you should be able to pass the exam!"

When Zhang Jingchu saw Zhang Jingxin open her mouth, she looked at Zhang Ran in surprise and explained: "Zhang Ran has studied art and oil painting before, but because of his mild color blindness, he changed to film."

Only then did Zhang Jingxin understand what was going on. No wonder Zhang Ran’s movie has a good texture and an impressionistic feeling. He whispered: “Well, brother-in-law, I like your movie. Can you sign for me?”

Zhang Ran smiled and said, "The signature is OK, but I have a condition." Zhang Ran lowered his voice and said, "Tell me the embarrassing things about your sister when she was a child, such as she wetting the bed at the age of nine!"

"You are only nine years old and wet the bed!" Zhang Jingchu glared at Zhang Ran. She usually laughed at Zhang Ran for his embarrassing things when he was a child. This was revenge. She turned to Zhang Jingxin and said, "Jingxin, don't pay attention to him!"

Zhang Jingxin looked at Zhang Jingchu, then Zhang Ran, blinked her eyes, and decided to stand on the side of her idol: "In addition to signing, I will take a photo with me, and I will tell you what happened to my sister before!"

Zhang Jingchu said angrily when she heard this: "Zhang Jingxin, you traitor!"

Zhang Ran signed Zhang Jingxin and whispered temptingly: "No problem. As long as you tell me, not only will you take a photo with you, but you will also give you an mp4." Zhang Ran knew that Zhang Jingchu had many younger brothers and sisters, and he would definitely have to prepare a dress during the Spring Festival, so he took some mp4 from Lenovo as a gift.

When they heard the mp4, not only Zhang Jingxin nodded, but the other younger brothers and sisters all rushed to say, "Brother-in-law, I know! Brother-in-law, I will tell you!" They took turns talking about Zhang Jingchu's childhood. Zhang Jingchu was very naughty when she was a child. She was caught on the spot for stealing oranges. She went to the room to dig a bird's nest and trampled on other people's houses, and was regarded as a bad boy.

Zhang Ran laughed loudly when he heard this: "Jingchu, are you really a family? You don't go into the family? I was a bad boy when I was a child. You were a bad girl when you were a child. We are such a perfect match!"

Zhang Jingchu was so angry that she pointed at her younger brothers and sisters with her waist and scolded her: "You group of unscrupulous traitors, I have loved you in vain!"

Zhang Ran suffered during dinner in the evening. Zhang Jingchu's uncle and brothers took turns to drink with Zhang Ran. After drinking with his cousin, he drank with his second uncle, and then he drank with his eldest uncle, and then he drank with his fourth uncle. In the end, Zhang Ran couldn't even speak, and his tongue was rolled up, which sounded like Russian, so that he would always walk when he got up the next day.

On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Zhang Ran and Zhang Jingchu left their home and went to Xiamen. When they left, they were really reluctant to part with Zhang Jingchu's younger brothers and sisters. They were really cute.

Xiamen is a famous tourist city. This kind of fresh and romantic city is especially suitable for young people. Zhang Ran is not a literary youth, but since he has arrived in Xiamen, he must have some fun, especially Gulangyu.

Zhang Ran has been to many famous tourist attractions, and it is actually hard to bear the reputation of many, but Gulangyu Island deserves its reputation. The sun is shining, the breeze is gentle, the waves gently pat the reefs, and there are many white shells on the reefs, which are so beautiful that they make people feel palpitations.

On the eighth day of the lunar month, Zhao Fei, Ding Sheng, and other relevant personnel from the crew rushed to Xiamen and took pictures of "Three Fools" with Zhang Ran. Before that, Ding Sheng and the people from the photography team had already conducted the first survey. According to Zhang Ran's request, they took a lot of photos and videos in Xiamen and Xiamen University and brought them back to Peking for Zhang Ran to choose.

What Zhang Ran and the others need to do now is to re-examine, confirm how to use the site, and eliminate possible problems. After reading it, Zhang Ran was generally satisfied. The architectural style is quaint, with green mountains and sea on the north side. The vegetation here is lush, which is simply a destination for filming youth campus dramas. There are only one or two attractions and some problems are needed to be selected again.

After two days, Zhang Ran and the crew members walked through all the relevant attractions and boarded the plane back to Peiping. (To be continued.)8
