China Entertainment’s rescue plan is hard to come by
Chapter 891 Mom, should I step with my left foot first, or my right foot?
Chapter 891 Mom, should I step with my left foot first, or my right foot?
January 10th, less than 20 days before their wedding.
Sun Yi and Liu Yifei have finally returned from the United States.
Before returning, he spent a lot of money to book a private jet.
It's the latest model from Gulfstream Airlines that we had discussed before – the G650.
Because I'm a long-time customer, they also gave me a free modification package.
That is, $6000 million, which includes the overall cost of modifying the aircraft's interior. Of course, you'll have to pay for any additional decorations you want to add, including bathtubs, seats, leisure and office supplies, etc.
To give an example, it's like renovating a house. The developer covers the renovation of your water and electricity lines and the room structure, and then they'll put on some simple tiles and a false ceiling. The rest of the furniture and appliances are up to you.
Even so, the housekeeper was overjoyed.
I was hesitant when I was about to pay the deposit, but when they said they would give me the money for the modifications, I finally showed my teeth and signed the contract without hesitation.
So what if she's a big star? She's a woman too. How can she show off her thriftiness if she doesn't get any free gifts when she buys something?
Yes, Liu Yifei believed that it was her final hesitation, and her acting skills that were comparable to those of an award-winning actress, that made the client manager of Gulfstream Company reluctantly agree to a huge discount and give away the entire modification fee.
That's over 3 million US dollars, which is equivalent to a 5% discount.
This is an airplane! You don't even get this kind of discount when buying a house.
Look how awesome I am!
On the way back to China, he bragged about it to Sun Yi.
Seeing Liu Tianxian's smug expression, Sun Yi really couldn't bear to discourage her.
As far as he knew, this was also a sales tactic used by Gulfstream.
Private jets are a niche market, so of course they have to do everything they can to retain customers.
Don't assume that rich people don't care about $300 million.
What? They've already spent $6000 million, what's a little bit more?
In his previous life, Sun Yi thought so too, but now he knows all too well.
The richer they are, the more shrewd they are; they'd squeeze every last drop of oil from your bones.
The truly extravagant spenders are the princes of the Middle East.
Wearing a piece of cloth on my head, I am the richest person in the world.
Back in China, I felt much better, and Liu Tianxian felt the same way.
They had planned to rest at home for a day and indulge in some shameless fun, but the Empress Dowager called urgently, inviting them home for dinner under the guise of "welcoming them back." The two had no choice but to abandon their filthy thoughts and go to pay their respects.
Sunshine Shangdong, Zone C.
Zhang Qin had been waiting in her courtyard for a long time. As soon as she saw Sun Yi's Audi come to a stop, she immediately opened the gate.
"Oh, Sisi, you're finally back! I missed you so much! Are you tired? Let me see if you've lost weight."
As soon as Comrade Zhang Qin saw Liu Yifei, her eyes crinkled into crescent moons with laughter. She grabbed Liu Yifei's hand and wouldn't let go, scrutinizing her from head to toe with an undisguised fondness and tenderness.
Sun Yi stood to the side, unfazed. Ever since he and Xiao Nizi confirmed their relationship, whenever he came here, a grand drama of maternal love and filial piety would unfold.
He's basically immune to it now; he just treats himself as a son-in-law who's moved in with his wife's family.
"Auntie, I missed you too. This is something I brought back for you from America."
Liu Yifei obediently let Zhang Qin pull her along with one hand, while presenting the gift with the other. Her voice was soft and sweet, and her fair face was flushed.
Although she was usually quirky and carefree, she always displayed a bit of the shyness of a new bride meeting her in-laws in front of Sun Yi's parents. Zhang Qin, however, was completely charmed by this and was extremely satisfied with this daughter-in-law.
"Oh dear, Qianqian, why are you carrying so much stuff? Auntie has everything she needs." Zhang Qin scolded affectionately, then turned to glare at Sun Yi, pointing at the "big bags and small packages" in Liu Yifei's hands, and said softly, "So much stuff, why couldn't you help Qianqian carry some? Don't you have any sense?"
Me? I just drove here~
How to get it?
Besides
Sun Yi glanced at the "big and small packages" in Liu Yifei's hands. There were two gift bags in total, containing a set of cosmetics and health products.
Is it really necessary?
"Mom, please tell me, when we go inside, should I step in with my left foot or my right foot first?"
Comrade Zhang Qin immediately gave Sun Yi a killer look, while Liu Tianxian, standing to the side, pursed her lips and laughed like a goose.
"Oh, alright, the kids rarely come back, come inside quickly."
Comrade Lao Sun came out wearing an apron, clearly having just finished cooking.
But Dad, what's the meaning of wearing a Tang suit under that apron?
Sun Yi hadn't seen Comrade Lao Sun for quite a while. He remembered that although Comrade Lao Sun often called himself an "artistic youth," he wasn't quite to that extent.
Zhang Qin pulled Liu Yifei's hand and led her into the house, while also revealing the mystery to Sun Yi.
"Your dad is really something now. He's a member of the Beijing Writers Association, an active member. He's always out with the other association members, going around collecting material."
Sun Yi looked at Comrade Old Sun with a surprised expression, thinking to himself.
Dad, don't let this field trip turn out the way I'm thinking. Otherwise, Mom might turn against you for the greater good, and I, your son, won't be able to help you.
"Oh dear, it's all thanks to the association's recognition and the organization's training. Why bring this up now that Xixi is here?"
Comrade Sun looked smug, completely oblivious to the disdain in Zhang Qin's tone.
It turns out that ever since Sun Yi became successful, Comrade Sun has lost his motivation at work. He was thinking of retiring early, but the unit leaders absolutely refused to agree.
They said that the organization had nurtured him for so many years and it wasn't easy for him to give up, so they transferred him to the trade union and promoted him to deputy director level. After that, they recommended him to the Municipal Federation of Literary and Art Circles.
The leaders of the Federation of Literary and Art Circles took one look and realized, "Isn't this the father of the famous director Sun Yi?"
With such a talented son, the father can't be any less capable; he's going straight for the Writers' Association.
Thus, a few years after reaching the age of fifty, Comrade Sun finally embarked on the right track in his life.
Looking at Sun's parents, who seemed to dislike each other yet were harmonious and loving, Liu Yifei felt both envious and happy.
She felt envious because her parents divorced early in life, and she had never experienced such a family environment. She even had to call to arrange a time to see her father.
What makes her happy is that Sun's parents treat her extremely well. In a sense, Sun's parents are now her parents too; all that's missing is the formal change of address.
Deep down, she had already accepted it.
As usual, Zhang Qin and Comrade Sun prepared a sumptuous meal for the young couple.
During the meal, Zhang Qin kept putting food on Liu Yifei's plate, and even after Liu Yifei put down her chopsticks, Zhang Qin kept asking her questions.
"Sisi, is that all you've eaten? Are you full?"
"Auntie, I'm really full." To make her words more convincing, Liu Yifei patted her slightly protruding belly and said somewhat shyly, "I'm wearing my wedding dress next month, so I have to maintain a good figure."
Upon hearing the word "wedding dress," Zhang Qin's eyes lit up, and she quickly nodded, saying, "Yes, yes, just eat your fill and stay in shape." After saying that, she turned and glared at Sun Yi, who was still happily eating.
Sisi has already finished eating. What, do you expect her to watch you eat?
Sun Yi glanced at his old friend, who had put down his chopsticks and was now leisurely sipping his tea, and then at his mother and daughter, who had also put down their chopsticks.
No, I'm not full yet!
