1979 Golden Age

"boom!"

A plane flying from Shanghai passed over the capital and was about to land.

Fei Xiang looked down curiously and realized that the city was relatively primitive, with no high-rise buildings. The city was surrounded by large expanses of snow-covered fields. He thought the scenery was very beautiful.

In contrast, Bi Lina was leaning on the chair with empty eyes, not knowing what she was thinking. When the radio reminded her again, she said: "Put your clothes on, you will be cold!"

"How cold is it?"

The accompanying Taiwan Affairs Office staff member responded: "You'd better put on some clothes. It seems to be almost 20 degrees below zero today."

"Minus 20 degrees?

Fei Xiang was speechless and put on a down jacket obediently. The Taiwan Affairs Office staff said: "When you land, several leaders will come to pick you up in person and take photos or something."

"Is there an interview?"

No, not scheduled at the moment.

"Is Mr. Chen coming?" "Of course he is!"

As long as he came, Fei Xiang felt a little reassured, but then asked: "Leader, do you think I can understand what the leaders are saying? I mean, issues like accent and language."

"This... we will convey it to you depending on the specific situation."

Not many people speak standard Mandarin these days, especially old comrades who came from the revolutionary period.

Fei Xiang continued to look out the window, and as he landed a little bit, he couldn't help but become nervous. Their journey back was winding and detoured, and they didn't make much of a stop in Shanghai. He has never really dealt with mainlanders, so he doesn't know what they are like.

And this decision of my own means that all the previous accumulation will be wiped out. Taiwan will ban all forms of performances and can only rely on the mainland market. He was willing to come back for two reasons: one was to accompany his mother, and the other was to believe in Chen Qi.

"boom!"

The plane landed and taxied to a stop. Bi Lina still had a cold face and an expressionless face. The Taiwan Affairs Office staff did not dare to talk to her, and Fei Xiang had no idea what she was thinking.

After getting off the plane and heading out, I saw a group of people coming to greet me as soon as I arrived at the lobby. Leaders from the Taiwan Affairs Office, the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office, and the Ministry of Culture were all there, and the standards were relatively high.

"Mr. Fei Xiang, welcome back to the motherland!

“We are very touched by the decision you made. Don’t worry, everything is arranged!”

"Thank you, this is my home, of course I want to come back and visit!"

Fei Xiang shook hands with everyone and was very good at talking. He was tall, handsome, and had an outstanding image, a hundred times stronger than the previous Hou Dejian. The leaders were all delighted to see him. He turned around and saw Chen Qi again.

He hurried over: "Mr. Chen!"

"Just come back, we'll talk about it at the hotel."

Chen Qi nodded and turned to Bi Lina. He was very curious about this mysterious mother. He saw that she was short in stature, middle-aged and fat, with a curly head. There was nothing unusual about her, but her eyes were full of stories.

They met briefly at the airport and sent the mother and son to the Overseas Chinese Hotel first, with Chen Qi still following.

The reception standards these days, except for state guest-level figures, are almost the same due to the lack of relevant construction. The first time Cheng Long came to mainland China to film, it was "Police Story 3" in 1992. The bath water in the hotel was yellow.

But compared to others, the Overseas Chinese Hotel is simply a place that Chinese people can hardly imagine. "You two will rest today. Tomorrow we will visit your relatives, and then we will prepare some activities...

In the room, the Taiwan Affairs Office staff were extremely excited. They talked about arrangements. Fei Xiang listened politely and asked Chen Qi: "Mr. Chen, is there any conflict at this time?"

"After you finish watching, grandma will come over to rehearse and then evaluate the Spring Festival Gala." "Xiao Chen, Mr. Fei Xiang is..."

"It doesn't matter. The Spring Festival Gala is more important. One of my wishes when I come back is to participate in the Spring Festival Gala."

"Oh, okay then!"

The Taiwan Affairs Office staff had no choice but to change the itinerary, but couldn't help but glance at Chen Qi: Please! This is a Taiwan compatriot and an American overseas Chinese. Can you be polite?

Officials from the Ministry of Culture were not surprised. Last year, more than a dozen people from the Hong Kong performing arts group visiting Beijing were treated as Sun Tzu by Xiao Chen.

Bi Lina, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said, "Can we go see my mother today?"

", you'd better take a rest. "No, I'm not tired at all. "

"Then, come over in the afternoon and we will pick you up.

The itinerary had to be changed again, so the Taiwan Affairs Office staff sat there for a while and then hurried off.

Chen Qi stayed and said, "I'm talking about Lao Fei!" Poof! "

Bi Lina, who had always had no expression, broke through in one second. Chen Qi panicked: "Auntie, is it okay for me to call you that?"

"Aunt?"

Bi Lina's eyes widened, and Fei Xiang also laughed: "Mom, we are the same age, and Mr. Chen likes to joke."

"It's up to you!" Bi Lina didn't care. "Old Fei, you have a lot of stage experience. I have prepared costumes for you. If you put it on and walk for two steps, there will be no problems. You will definitely win. Also, I want to invite my grandma and aunt to the Spring Festival Gala and sit in the audience. Xi watched your performance, what do you think?"

"Will there be cameras?" Bi Lina asked. "If you agree to give the camera, we will give it to you."

"We'll talk about it then." "Okay!"

Chen Qi was unsure of Bi Lina's identity. What if she was really an underground worker? It's better to be careful.

Afternoon.

A certain alley in Beijing.

Li Mengbai, with his two sons and a bunch of family members, watched eagerly at the door. Finally, he saw a car driving into the alley. He was so excited that he rushed to meet the car before it stopped.

Fei Xiang noticed that his mother's hand was shaking, so he couldn't help but squeeze it and opened the car door.

The first time he saw a little old lady, he had never met his grandma, but blood and family ties are sometimes very mysterious. He suddenly got emotional and shouted: "Grandma!"

"Why!"

Li Mengbai was even more excited. He looked up at his grandson and stretched out his hand tremblingly. Fei Xiang quickly bowed down and felt the old man's hand touch his cheek. A rough and warm feeling seemed to dispel the cold winter in the capital. .

"You, you are so old!"

"I don't even know, I thought you...Mingming...

The old lady hugged him and burst into tears. For some reason, Fei Xiang's eyes turned red and he cried too. He had never experienced any other family ties with his mother since he was a child - Chen Qi took a camera and took pictures next to him. After a long time, the old lady recovered.

Only then did he turn his attention to his daughter who had been separated for more than 30 years.

Everyone present thought that they would hold each other's hands and cry to express their longing for each other. Unexpectedly, Bi Lina's face showed some fluctuations and her fingers were trembling, but that was all. She called out: "Mom!"

"Xiao Na, you're back!" "Yes!"

“Just come back, just come back!

The old lady's face was actually a puddle of water. She didn't cry and wiped away tears, but was inexplicably dull.

Fei Xiang himself said that he didn't understand it at the time. It was only after many years that he realized that it was because he was afraid that his emotional defense line would collapse and the flood would wash him away - it was like being extremely sad and unable to cry.

A group of people stayed outside for a long time and entered the house in a lively manner.

Fei Xiang was curious about everything. This alley, this courtyard, and this small bungalow didn't even have a toilet. They were all public toilets. But grandma has a fleshy face and a good figure, and is well taken care of by her two uncles.

Neighbors crowded outside to watch the fun, and they heard that they were Taiwan compatriots, and they thought that Chinese Americans were so tall. In the past, people who had overseas relationships would be criticized, but now they are envied by everyone.

"Comrade Chen Qi, thank you. Without you, I might not be able to see them both until I die!"

When the old lady heard that he was the initiator of this united front, she held his hand and kept thanking him. Chen Qi took the opportunity to say: "Grandma, this is what we should do. Fei Xiang is a big singer in Taiwan. In addition to seeing you when I come back, I will also We’re going to the Spring Festival Gala!”

"Spring Festival Gala? Is it the Spring Festival Gala of "My Chinese Heart"?"

"Yes! He is filial and wants you to go and watch his performance live. Are you willing?" "Yes! Yes!"

The old lady's enthusiasm was no less than the return of a relative, and she held Fei Xiang's hand: "The Spring Festival Gala is great. You perform well, and I will applaud you... Xiaona, will you go too?"

"All right!"

Bi Lina hesitated for a moment, but agreed. Chen Qi emphasized again: "If you don't want the camera, just tell me in advance."

He stayed with her for a while and then came out first.

Breathing the cold air of the capital, listening to the hustle and bustle in the courtyard, his mood, which had been a little bad after being divided into rooms recently, finally improved. The Spring Festival Gala evaluation was coming soon, and he and Huang Yihe had their own shows.

The battle between the two units would definitely involve a third party as the referee. The standards would be very high, and the leaders of the Ministry of Truth would come to the scene in person.

Some ministries, although they are ministries, have full-time leaders who are half a rank higher, such as the Ministry of Truth, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan Affairs Office and the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office. The Spring Festival Gala last year shocked everyone in Haizi. Everyone was paying attention and heard that both parties were going to broadcast it. Big leaders all wanted to watch the show - but it was actually a lack of entertainment.

"Let's go!"

Chen Qi got into his van and killed CCTV! (Yes.)
