Rhapsody of Entertainment Rebirth

Minbei County has a genius like Shan He, and the entire region will benefit greatly!

Not to mention the various actual investments made by the Shanhe family in their hometown, the invisible effect alone has made Northern Fujian County suffer a lot.

The reputation of mountains and rivers all over the world has made Northern Fujian County famous. Don't underestimate this reputation, because with this reputation, no good thing can happen to Northern Fujian County.

In recent years, Northern Fujian County has not missed any of the country's various favorable policies.

Favorable policies such as highways, development zones, side businesses, and green economy have made the county look different every year.

News came again this year that the high-speed rail planning has been completed and construction will start on the entire line next year. Northern Fujian County is also included in the list. A small mountainous county will soon enter the high-speed rail era, which is crucial to the development of Northern Fujian County.

In the past few years, Minbei County has developed two scenic tourist areas. They relied on the name of Shanhe Hometown to promote them. The results were excellent and they have gradually gained fame.

The construction of the third scenic spot "Northern Fujian Grand Canyon" has begun, not far from Qiujia Village. After visiting the scenic spot, tourists who are interested can also stop by the hometown of Shanhe!

As soon as this project began, it was enthusiastically welcomed by investors and the people of the county. As soon as construction started, all kinds of stores and supporting industries were sold out.

All fools know that this project is bound to be popular. It is a project related to mountains and rivers, and it is based on his hometown. Who doesn't know that Qiujia Village is full of smoke!

Shanhe brought a big Hollywood star back to his hometown, which was the biggest news in Northern Fujian County.

Two days before Shanhe returned home, he was busy dealing with visits from parents and officials at all levels.

Hathaway was not idle either. Grandma took her and her granddaughter and went around to recognize people and greet the elders in the clan.

"This is my aunt!"

"Hello, aunt!"

"This girl looks lucky. Her waist is just right and her butt is big. Sister Hai, just wait to hold your great-grandson!"

"Haha... the girl understands! She said she must have at least two..."

"What a girl! I'll bring her home for dinner tomorrow, I'm ready!"

…

"This is Shanhe's cousin's aunt, just call her Aunt Li!"

"Hello Aunt Li!"

"Hey, this girl is so pretty. Her eyes are so big that she can fit into a water tank. Aunt Hai, you are so lucky!"

…

Hathaway is extremely popular in the village, and her dinner has been arranged for ten days.

The enthusiasm of family members and various traditional greeting gifts such as quilts and red envelopes made Hathaway curious and very happy.

Although there is no family castle in Qiu's hometown, there is a strong blood relationship, which is very different from the huge family she imagined.

There is no family cocktail party with many rules, but only warm invitations from all members.

In addition to visiting the elders, Qiu Chuxi took Hathaway around the entire Qiujia Village, telling her every detail of their brother and sister's life in their hometown.

"My brother took me to play and catch fish in this ditch when I was a kid. He was very good at it..."

"This river beach is my brother and I's secret base. He always takes me here to catch fireflies. It's so beautiful here in the summer!"

"There used to be a patch of rice crackers here, but now it's turned into a pear forest. My brother likes to eat rice crackers the most..."

…

Hathaway was very happy to hear it. She knew that Shanhe's first novel was about his hometown, and she had also read "From City to Field". The various memories described by Qiu Chuxi turned into pictures in her mind, which made her She couldn't stop thinking about it.

Did Qiu grow up here? This is the place where he has his roots. Everything here has made my lover embark on the road to glory!

Hathaway likes this small village in the Chinese mountains very much, not only because of the mountains and rivers, but also because it has a harmonious beauty that is completely different from the West.

Qiujia Village has entered the Internet age, and almost every family has a computer for their children. The news that Shanhe and Hathaway are returning home cannot be hidden.

Young people in the entire northern Fujian County are fans of Shanhe, let alone in Qiujia Village!

In the past two days, pictures of Shanhe and Hathaway's live broadcasts in their hometowns have been posted to the fan base.

"Hello! Great-uncle!" This nonsensical greeting made the entire fan base laugh.

"Haha... I know why Shanhe always does some weird things. It's definitely a blood inheritance!"

“Just thinking about it makes me laugh. It’s so earthy and combines Chinese and Western elements. This greeting is so classic!”

"Hathaway is now a grandma, and Shanhe is a senior member of the family. Please post more pictures. I'm so curious!"

"I brought them all back to my hometown! Hey, why do all the good grass grow on cow dung!"

"Hathaway is still bullshit, give me a hundred pieces..."

…

Since then, Hathaway has had a special title among Shanhe fans,

"Uncle"!

This embarrassing incident quickly spread from the fan base to the entire Internet, and immediately became a hot spot on the Internet that day. Various news that Shanhe brought Hathaway back to his hometown aroused the enthusiasm of gossip among the people.

A big star from M country becomes the new wife in a Chinese mountain village. This is a very strange thing.

The entire Internet is watching Hathaway's daily life, and her various experiences in Qiujia Village have been retold online almost in detail.

The younger generation in Qiujiacun is more dedicated than the paparazzi, and various photos and snapshots are spread on the Internet.

Among them is Qiu Chuxi's contribution. The fun of her and Hathaway every night is to upload beautiful photos and read all kinds of weird messages from fans!

For the first time, Shanhe fell out of favor among his hometown elders and fans!

During this period, many people come to Qiujia Village to see the strange things, and there are even fans who come from other provinces. Qiujia Village is almost becoming a tourist attraction!

Not to mention, after the hot discussion on the Internet these days, the entire tourist attractions in northern Fujian County have been promoted, the number of tourists has increased significantly, and the scenery of Qiujia Village has really attracted many netizens!

The previous week had been bustling, and there was still an endless stream of fans and tourists coming to Qiujia Village, but the village was accustomed to Hathaway's presence, and there was no longer any curiosity to see it.

The village returned to its original routine, and Qiu Dahai, Shanhe's grandfather, also began to make arrangements for entertaining guests.

Courtesy reciprocated, every household in the village gave Hathaway a greeting gift, and it was the proper etiquette for the whole village to return the favor.

This morning, just after dawn, the Qiu family ancestral hall became lively.

Setting up wine and inviting the whole village to a banquet of snacks is not something that Shanhe's family can handle. In rural areas, the whole family helps to organize wine.

Xie Meiyu made the menu the day before, and Qiu Dahai arranged the grocery shopping staff last night. All kinds of ingredients and two big fat pigs were delivered to the ancestral hall early in the morning.

Rural areas have their own banquet process. Treating guests to a banquet is just a pretext, and the whole village preparing together is the most joyful scene.

For thousands of years, Chinese farmers have maintained the friendship between neighbors and families through this kind of collaborative labor and gatherings.

It’s just that this kind of tradition will become less and less popular, and human relationships will become more and more indifferent!

Feeling sorry for the lack of hair, let’s join in the labor!

Shanhe changed into the old clothes prepared by his grandma and joined the pig-killing team with his father.

Not only Shanhe, Hathaway also put on an apron and began to fulfill her labor obligations as a daughter-in-law in Qiujia Village.

Usually at this time, chef Xie Meiyu is at her most arrogant, and everyone in the village, old and young, has to obey her arrangements. She assigned Hathaway the easiest job to follow her.

But he arranged his daughter to join the vegetable washing army, which was the most burdensome.

"Mom, you're biased, I'll follow your lead and take action!"

"Look at the girls your age in the village, who doesn't take the initiative to wash and sort vegetables? You are the only one special! Go work hard!"

"How about I switch with Xixi!"

Hathaway is eager to try. This is her first time to participate in this kind of traditional Chinese family labor, and she is very excited!

"You haven't come through the door yet. I don't have your share of washing dishes, so just follow me!"

"Mom, I can also help you cook!" Qiu Chuxi said plausibly.

Xie Meiyu glanced at her daughter and said, "No matter how good you are, you have to start by washing vegetables. I remember back then, I followed your grandmother to make banquet noodles and washed vegetables for three or four years! I am so impatient even if I am a little smart, hurry up! Don't make me angry!"

"oh!"

…

In fact, this kind of labor is not hard and boring. On the contrary, it is the kind of labor that rural women like to participate in most.

Everyone gathered together, chatted about daily life, listened to various gossips in the village, and finished their work while laughing.

It's the same for the men. There isn't much work. After killing the pigs, it's just some work of moving tables and doing some work.

Everyone was sitting on the ground smoking and chatting. When someone called someone to do something to do, they would join in. After finishing the work, they continued chatting and basking in the sun!

Of course, the Shanhe family will be busier. After all, they are entertaining guests and have many chores to do.

Hathaway followed Xie Meiyu and participated in the entire process. For her, a native of M country, all this was too new.

Not to mention a big city like New York, even in the rural areas of country M, such a lively scene would not be possible.

The whole family is working together to prepare for the celebration banquet. In her opinion, this is a unique romance of the Chinese people. Joy and smiles are contagious through mutual cooperation, making people involuntarily sink into this atmosphere.

In this special interaction, the gap between Hathaway and the villagers became smaller and smaller. People no longer saw her as a Hollywood movie star. Few people called her by her name. They usually called her "Shanhe Wife".

Following Xie Meiyu, Hathaway didn't do much work, but she was full before noon, and she tried all kinds of dishes.

Looking at the various dishes in the kitchen, Hathaway was amazed.

"Auntie, you are so amazing! It's incredible that you did all this!"

Xie Meiyu was able to show off in front of her future daughter-in-law, "What does this mean? I used to manage running water mats with Shanhe's grandmother. That one is very demanding. It has to be arranged meticulously and the hands and feet are nimble enough. It doesn't take more than a few decades." I don’t even dare to get started with this experience!”

Hathaway half understood, "Is this your family's craft? Wow, do I have to learn it all in the future?"

"Haha... You are the daughter-in-law, and this craft is not yours. This is the daughter's ability to support the family in her husband's family. It is Qiu Chuxi's craft!"

"Then I can't learn?"

"If you want to learn, I will teach you slowly in the future!"

…

The whole village banquet in Qiujia Village made the fans who came to watch the fun very happy and couldn't stop taking pictures with their cameras.

Shanhe is wearing old patched clothes to kill pigs; Hathaway is wearing an apron and serving dishes; Qiu Chuxi is squatting on the ground washing cabbage. These scenes are rare to see.

Some fans even wanted to join the family dinner, shouting loudly to Shanhe: "Shanhe, come to a table for us! Can we give red envelopes?"

Shan He looked at a few fans who were making noises angrily, "I want to eat and work, but red envelopes don't work!"

"Hey, that's it? You see what we can do, just do whatever you want!"

"Can you shave pig hair?" Shanhe said, pointing to the steaming pig killing basin.

"this…"

…

"Haha... come on!" Shanhe looked at a few fans with blank expressions and laughed, "I won't tease you anymore, I'll go ask if there are any more reserved seats!"

After Shanhe said this, twenty or thirty fans who came to Qiujiacun to see the strange things all signed up to participate.

"Okay, I'll go figure it out!"

"Shanhe, just set up two tables, we just want to get a reputation as a member!"

"Never mind, you guys came all the way here and are now guests!"

…

Seeing Shanhe walk into the kitchen, the fan who spoke first couldn't help but say: "I was just joking, and Shanhe took it seriously!"

"Bullshit, when did Shanhe ever play with a phantom!"

"That's it, I have to support Shanhe for the rest of my life!"

…

The chef Xie Meiyu was really resourceful and managed to get two more tables together. There were a total of eighteen tables for this lunch, sixteen tables of tribesmen and two tables of fans.

The entire ancestral hall grounds are full of things.

Qiu Jiang brought his parents and Yu Zhengchong to make a toast to the couple, while Shanhe and Hathaway brought Qiu Chuxi to make a second toast. This was the rule of Shanhe's hometown for entertaining guests, and toasts were required at every table.

It was already more than half an hour after tables and tables of fans were paying their respects, and Shanhe was so drunk that his face turned red.

"Today is a family dinner. You represent my book fans and movie fans, and you are also considered my family. Apart from anything else, eat well and drink well! Everyone raises a toast. Anne and I and my sister will toast to you!"

"If you say it well, I will obey you!"

"I can't believe this is true!"

"I wish you a long life together and a son soon!"

"Now I'm blown away. Shanhe, Hathaway and Princess Xixi gave me a toast!"

…

That night, this meal immediately became famous on the Internet. These dozens of fans were very excited. They immediately wrote about their experience in Qiujiacun on the Internet, and the various pictures were neatly matched.

Everyone in the fan base is extremely envious of them, and it’s really fun to praise Shanhe!

These photos have also been uploaded on the Internet. During this period, the pair of Shan He and Hathaway have been a hot spot among the public.

Once these photos spread, this hot topic became even more popular.

"Shanhe is a very fun family. Everyone has no airs. Even Hathaway can wear an apron and serve food. I really have to accept it!"

"These two tables of fans have made a lot of money. After drinking the toasts from Shanhe and Hathaway, hurry up and buy lottery tickets..."

"The customs in Shanhe's hometown are exactly the same as mine. During the Chinese New Year, I have to help kill pigs like him..."

"Shanhe kills the pigs, Hathaway serves the dishes, and Princess Xixi washes the dishes. I'll go. This meal is so damn good!"

…

At this moment, the Shanhe family had no energy to pay attention to the Internet. The two meals at noon and evening made them very tired. Even the most relaxed Hathaway was leaning on Shanhe's shoulder and was too lazy to move.

Shanhe turned around and kissed Hathaway's hair, "Annie, how are you feeling today? Are you tired?"

Hathaway put her arm around Shanhe's shoulders and replied: "I do the least work with the auntie, Qiu. I like this atmosphere very much. It's not as rigid as a Western reception at all. This is a Chinese family party, right?"

"Haha... This kind of banquet is very common in China. It is similar in every rural area. This is the Chinese way of communication. The exchange of favors is the most basic etiquette of the Chinese people. It is similar to parties, but it is still very different. of!"

"I can understand a little bit!" Hathaway turned to look at the mountains and rivers, "Everyone works together, enjoys food together, celebrates together, and the distance will become closer and closer. There is no such intimacy in the city!"

Shanhe nodded, "The land in China is too small compared to the population. From ancient times to the present, farmers have needed intensive farming to support themselves. This requires the cooperation of people to complete. This kind of collaborative labor has been formed for a long time. The custom of enjoying fruits together is one of the reasons why Chinese people pay more attention to group consciousness!"

"Today's banquet is held for me, right?"

"Yes, everyone welcomes you!"

"I'm very satisfied. I like this romance of everyone working together!"

"Haha... If you stay here for a month, of course you will feel romantic. If you stay here for a long time, you won't be able to stand it anymore!"

"NO, honey, as long as you are by my side, I will feel very romantic!"

…

Hathaway is indeed getting more and more accustomed to staying in her hometown of Shanhe. With Shanhe and Qiu Chuxi accompanying her, she enjoys all kinds of new things in the Chinese countryside.

She gets along more and more harmoniously with her tribe members. The foreign monks like to chant sutras. Hathaway's popularity in Qiujia Village remains high. Everyone is very curious about her as the only foreign wife.

Time flies by happily, and in the blink of an eye it is the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, the Year of the Rat is about to pass, and the Year of the Ox is about to come.

Chuhe Film and Television in Beijing has entered the final sprint of the year. This is the second consecutive year that Wu Ershan has competed in the Spring Festival.

The RMB 100 million investment in "Painted Skin 2" doubled his pressure. Shanhe's trust made him burst into tears of gratitude but also very nervous.

With such a large investment, even Ning Hao has not even tried it yet, but he has been pushed to the front. He cannot fail, otherwise he will be sorry for Shanhe's trust!

"Painted Skin" has a high box office across Asia, and the sequel "Painted Skin 2" will naturally be released on the same day in many Asian countries.

Zhong Lifeng was very confident in this movie and spent a lot of money on promotion. "Painted Skin 2" was released with great fanfare.

Chuhe Film and Television’s external slogan is: China’s phenomenal fantasy special effects blockbuster, another milestone in Chinese films!

Wu Ershan did not disappoint the entire Chuhe Film and Television. Audiences and media reporters who watched the premiere couldn't help but sigh. The RMB 100 million was well spent. Compared with the first part of "Painted Skin", the scene felt grander. There are so many, and the level of special effects production is even more extraordinary!

Although there are still flaws in the plot and rhythm, the combination of special effects production and live shooting can leave the domestic public speechless.

I don’t dare to guess how much the box office will be, but based on the box office appeal of Zhou Xun and Zeng Li, as well as the film’s special effects level, the domestic box office is sufficient. Chuhe Film and Television will not lose money relying solely on the domestic market!

As soon as the first-day box office data came out, all major media outlets across the country became excited. It was 36 million yuan!

It broke the domestic first-day box office record of Shan He's "The Wind" and is not far away from the film's single-day box office record of 37.5 million yuan, also set for "The Wind"!

After a year and a half, a movie finally hit the box office of 500 million again.

The audience's reputation is also quite good. They especially praised the special effects production in the film, saying that the special effects production of "Painted Skin 2" is no worse than Hollywood!

The audience score on Douban Film Review also reached 7.9 points. The media are rushing to report this record-breaking data. The box office forecast of "Painted Skin 2" is set at between 450 million and 500 million!

Wu Ershan has gained the most. His fame has reached a new level in one day, and he is already a well-known leader among the new generation of Chinese directors.

Shan He also learned the news in his hometown. He was very calm about the box office figures. Unlike his previous life, the domestic film market had matured a lot.

It has been a year and a half since the release of "The Wind". During this year and a half, the growth of domestic theater chains has been explosive.

According to Shanhe, the expansion of these major theater chains alone, including Wanda, Dadi, United, China Film and Golden Harvest, is over 20%.

Wanda and Golden Harvest even exceeded 30%. With this expansion rate, the domestic box office figures of 40 million in a single day have already been formed.

A single movie with a total box office of 500 million is not an impossible task. The box office record of "The Wind" may become history at any time.

"Painted Skin 2" is one of the most famous works in the world. One movie turned him from an unknown person to the best candidate for large-scale investment and large-scale production in China.

In Shanhe's memory, the box office of "Painted Skin 2" exceeded 700 million. Although it was three years later, it broke almost all domestic movie box office records at that time.

Shanhe has not seen the finished version of "Painted Skin 2", so he thinks it will be no worse than what he remembered. Shanhe's box office prediction for the film is a base of 400 million, with a hope of 500 million!

Since there were no surprises at the box office on the first day, Shanhe did not focus too much on the movie's box office.

His biggest task now is to celebrate the New Year!

Because of Hathaway's arrival, grandpa and grandma attach great importance to this Spring Festival. The future granddaughter-in-law is here, and it will be even more prosperous. I hope I can give birth to my grandson as soon as possible!

Qiu Jiang was busy working everywhere under the instructions of the old man. Grandma, who had always been reluctant to spend money, was generous and gave away all the money given by her children and grandchildren.

Red lanterns, various colored lights, and all kinds of festive decorations must be prepared, and the best New Year goods must be bought.

"My dear! The money I gave you is for you to spend, not for viewing. You are using every penny!"

"Whatever money your dad and I can use at home, we are waiting for you to come back and spend it together to buy more good things for my grandchildren. This time my granddaughter-in-law is here too, so you have to buy everything you need to buy!"

"Your grandchildren are all rich now, why do you still have to worry about them?"

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Qiu Dahai glared at his son and cursed, "Your mother and I can't worry about our grandchildren. Just go as soon as we ask you to go. It's a lot of nonsense!"

"Can't I just go now?"

…

On the 30th day of the twelfth lunar month, everything in the Qiu family was prosperous, and a big red pomegranate wood carving was placed in the lobby.

The Year of the Rat is about to pass, and Shanhe has gained a lot this year. "Dallas Buyers Club" and the Olympics have brought his achievements to a new level.

The Year of the Ox is a new beginning, and it will bring more surprises and changes to the world!
