Chapter 1: Snowy night falls into the rock

Fan Wubing was a little lucky that he did not drive home.

Looking out along the train window, the fields that flashed back were covered with white snow, and the sky was still gray, wrapping the whole world in the muddy snow.

After the winter vacation, Fan Wubing stayed in Shanghai for a few days and dealt with some things. As for Xia Donghai and the others, they still had no time to spare because this cooperation with CCTV has opened up. In the Spring Festival Gala program, six artists under their company wanted to appear in the Spring Festival Gala. This is of course a big deal, especially in today's Spring Festival Gala programs, which basically has no market value. Even if you are willing to spend a lot of money, it depends on whether they are willing to collect your money.

The four pillars in the company, Chen Bisong, Chen Jingchu, Feng Ping and Xiao Qi, all arranged song programs, and the solos made many companies jealous. The remaining two were singing together with others, which was considered familiarity. When they went out to perform in the future, they were singers who had been on the Spring Festival Gala, so their value naturally increased.

Among the projects in the company that cooperate with CCTV, Starry Sky Shopping is available every day, with excellent ratings. Mr. Hou and his team's advertising revenue is getting better and better. He is confident that he will make a profit of more than 300 million this year. With their investment and cost, it is a brilliant achievement.

The launch of "The Same Song" has brought a new development opportunity to the long-dollar domestic music scene. Many new and old people hope to increase their popularity through such large-scale song programs. Therefore, Xia Donghai and others are very easy to do. Every day, many agency companies or singers come to take the initiative to contact each other, hoping to be released on "The Same Song". In addition to some big-name stars, there are many singers who are willing to sing or sponsor the program team to appear.

Even some veteran singers will not require high appearance fees when they encounter invitations from the program team. After all, this is the only large-scale song program held by CCTV, and its importance in gathering popularity is unparalleled.

However, Fan Wubing’s explanation to Xia Donghai and others was that he could not exploit these singers too much. After all, the number of artists under his jurisdiction was limited, so it was impossible to organize this program. If you want to make the program sustainable, you have to make friends and continue to expand the influence of your company’s entertainment industry.

Of course, there are also some discordant voices in it. For example, Chen Jingchu and others are famous and encounter more harassment. Therefore, Fan Wubing assigned several seals and then recruited some demobilized soldiers from the local area to serve as company security personnel to ensure the safety of the company personnel.

The distribution of demobilized soldiers has been more difficult in recent years. In addition, the company has paid a relatively high price and benefits, so there is no need to worry about no one serving. Therefore, the company quickly organized a team of professional security guards with more than 100 people to temporarily solve this worries.

Originally, the old Chen of CCTV hoped that Fan Wubing could participate in this year's Spring Festival Gala, but Fan Wubing immediately thought of the embarrassing scene of a group of girls surrounding him after the first episode of "The Same Song". This time he could not join in the fun.

When he was surrounded by Chen Bisong, Chen Jingchu, Feng Ping and Xia Xue, the fans in the audience were probably eager to rush up to tear him to pieces. Fortunately, the security guards maintained good order and they had some extraordinary things. They slipped away early, otherwise the consequences would be really hard to predict.

Even the most powerful martial arts masters can't resist everyone's spitting and wantonly ruining each person.

Therefore, Fan Wubing chose to go home for the New Year very wisely. Besides, the family is far away from each other. In this case, there is always hope of improvement after Panshi Airport is completed and put into use. Now if you have the opportunity, you still have to go home and spend more time with your parents.

Today is January 21st. International news is being played on the radio on the train. Two news has attracted everyone's attention. One is Bill Clinton from Arkansas. After defeating the old cowboy George Bush of the last president, he officially entered the White House yesterday and was sworn in to become the 42nd president of the United States. His vice president is Gore, his partner during the campaign.

Another news is that Audrey Hepburn died of colon cancer in Tollocenac, Switzerland yesterday.

For Fan Wubing, he paid more attention to the latter news. After all, Clinton had already decided to go to power, which was not worth mentioning. Instead, Audrey Hepburn's death made him feel a little moved.

Audrey Hepburn's distant ancestor was King Edward III of England, her father was a banker, her mother was a descendant of Dutch nobles, and she had the title of baron, which was probably the source of her elegant temperament on the movie screen.

During World War II, Germany occupied the Netherlands. Due to rumors that her mother's family had Jewish descent, the originally very wealthy Baron family was regarded as the enemy of the empire. Not only was their property confiscated by the occupying troops, Hepburn's uncle also was arrested in concentration camps, and the mother and daughter were forced to live a poor life.

During the famine of the war, Hepburn often relied on tulip bulbs and green bread made of baked grass to fill her stomach, and drank a lot of water to fill her stomach. The long-term malnutrition led to her thin body in the future.

The image of Audrey Hepburn that Fan Wubing saw for the first time was Princess Anne who saw in the movie "Roman Holiday". She has noble, elegant atmosphere, beautiful and refined appearance, light and slim body, and a short black hair. The effect of all these combination is huge and can be used to travel through decades and affect countless people.

Of course, those who can affect Fan Wubing cannot just win by appearance.

Audrey Hepburn later served as the United Nations Children's Fund Goodwill Ambassador, holding concerts and fundraising and condolences from time to time, visiting children from some poor areas, and traveling to many countries in Asia, Africa and Latin America.

At the end of last year, she went to Somalia with a serious illness to visit children facing death due to hunger. Her love and personality are as brilliant as her videos. When Nobel Peace Prize winner Mother Teresa learned that Audrey Hepburn was critically ill, she asked all nuns to pray for her all night to make her miraculous recovery, but it was the end of the day.

Fan Wubing turned the newspaper in the car into a paper airplane, then opened the window inside the box, and the cold wind immediately blew in, whirling the paper on the table. Under the strange eyes of several subordinates, Fan Wubing sent the paper airplane out.

After feeling the feeling of winter for a while, Fan Wubing closed the car window and said to his subordinates with some emotion, "What is respectable is not just beauty and wealth."

The train finally arrived at Panshi Station in the evening. Fan Heng's secretary Han Jin was waiting at the station at this time. After seeing Fan Wubing come out, he quickly picked Fan Wubing up the car, and his men went to the hotel.

"I'll give you a New Year's gift." Fan Wubing took a black briefcase with a shoulder-like back and handed it to Han Jin.

Han Jin was the first secretary selected by Fan Heng after he arrived at Panshi. He has always been very talented and is Fan Heng's capable helper. To this day, Fan Wubing can still remember when they first returned to Panshi. In order to deal with the emergencies at the railway station, he saw Han Jin trying hard to mediate.

It should be said that the first impression between people is very important, or it can change a person's life trajectory. After Han Jin met Fan Heng and his son, his life naturally changed. He jumped from an ordinary propaganda officer to become a capable secretary of a ministerial-level official. This change is indeed extraordinary for people in the officialdom.

Sometimes, the relationship between a leader and a secretary is more like a family.

"Thank you, what is this?" Han Jin felt a little heavy when he took the briefcase from Fan Wubing's hand. Obviously it was not just a briefcase, so he asked curiously.

"A laptop, combined with a printer, is very helpful for your work," said Fan Wubing.

"It's a bit expensive." Han Jin knew that this kind of thing was very expensive, so he said to Fan Wubing.

"For me, it's not short of money." Fan Wubing replied lightly.

Han Jin nodded and put his briefcase next to him. He knew that Fan Wubing was not short of money. If even Fan Wubing was not short of money, then no one would be short of money.

"Where is my dad now?" Fan Wubing asked casually.

Han Jin replied, "It was probably at the airport construction site. I planned to stop work during the Spring Festival, but your temptation to pay two more weeks of salary after completing the work one week in advance is too great. The construction units are working overtime to finish the work early! I'm afraid you will be spending money at that time!"

Fan Wubing patted his forehead, remembering this, and laughed, "This is done, haha. During the Chinese New Year, I will prepare some gifts and personally go to greet them!"

"In fact, sometimes it seems that capitalists are also more humane." Han Jin smiled slightly.

"It's not that absolute, everything varies from person to person." Fan Wubing replied.

The heavy snow this year is more severe than in previous years. The thick snow piled up on the streets of the rock has already exceeded the instep, and it looks like two or three inches later. The snow on the road has already started to clean up the clothes of cadres and staff in the city, and it has been almost done. However, starting this afternoon, another violent snowfall swept across most of the entire Wangtian Province, causing silver and white everywhere, and all of them are covered.

Fan Wubing opened the thick curtains hanging on the car window and looked at the scenery outside. The snow that looked slightly yellow under the street lights, and said to Han Jin, "Auspicious snow indicates a good harvest. It is snowing heavily at this time. It seems that the harvest this year will be much better."
