Chapter 633 The last year of the 1990s

After dinner, everyone went to the streets and saw the night view of the Bund.

The night wind by the river finally made these northerners understand what winter is in the south and what cold is above zero.

Neon lights shone on the streets, but they could not stop the honest trembling of their bodies, and their half-frozen hands were hopelessly growing in their pockets.

Maybe I have never seen people in my life who are naturally ice and snow wearing thin clothes and chatting and laughing around, slapping invisible slaps on the faces of these people coming from the snow and ice.

Fortunately, the feet are not frozen in winter in the south, and the torso is cold, otherwise the scene will definitely look better.

Several security officers and assistants consciously surrounded Zhang Yanming, Sun Hongye and a few women, so that they could blow less wind.

"I believe what you said." Sun Hongye hid her whole body behind Zhang Yanming and said in a buzzing voice.

"What's the matter?"

"People outside the pass are the least resistant to freezing, and the people in the southeast are the least afraid of cold."

"Well, this is the most resistant area in the country. It has fewer winds in the southwest and is geographically south-eastern. In fact, it also snowed here in the early years, and it has become much better now."

"Ah? Then you won't keep warm?"

"Well, without public heating, you just want to find a way to do it yourself. People are very adaptable, and you'll be fine if you get used to it."

"Go there and go there." Sun Hongye pointed to the roadside and shouted.

A few people have now walked to the west of the subway station, almost reaching Century Square. There are large department stores on both sides of the road, with neon lights spreading from the ground to the roof, reflecting the whole world in a colorful way.

It’s much better to enter the mall. There is no wind, there are many people, and I feel much more comfortable.

Although Jiangning Road in Shencheng is the most famous commercial street in the country, its actual hardware is not as beautiful as its reputation. Basically, the shopping malls and shops maintain the style of the same twenty years ago, old and high-end.

The contrast with the towering neon lights on the gorgeous streets outside the store is a bit huge.

The salesperson stood at the counter with a stern face, speaking in Mandarin with seafood, and looked down at the foreign countrymen who were crowded with crowds of people coming in.

In their hearts, the outside world is like Pudong, with mud and farmland everywhere, and the alleys are narrow and dilapidated, and people are crowded in houses where they can't turn over and stand up straight.

Most people have never traveled far away at this time, and they rely on imagination and speculation, and their impressions are accumulated from every bit of daily life.

So people still have to go out and take a look when they are fine.

However, no matter what, there is no doubt about the prosperity of Shencheng. The quality of mechanical products and knitted products produced in Shencheng is indeed excellent.

In the past few decades, it has been quite difficult for the people of the whole country to buy goods in Shanghai. It is expensive and it is not easy to buy tickets.

Although the ticket system was later cancelled, the price also increased, and it was not something you could buy just by wanting to buy.

This is also one of the reasons why Shencheng has a relatively high status in the minds of the people across the country, and one of the reasons why Shencheng people are very proud.

Sun Hongye bought everyone's clothes, and everyone wrapped themselves up for a while before they came out of the mall again.

When I walked to Century Square, there was a performance, surrounded by dense heads, and the music drifted out with the wind.

Zhang Yanming didn't know any of them, but the little assistants of both of them were very excited and clapped desperately. Six security guards looked around and protected everyone in the middle.

There is no professional stage here, just a long narrow platform was built on the open space on the street, and the lights were arranged, so that pedestrians could watch it.

Judging from the meaning of the little assistant, the people who performed are not very famous and don’t understand why this is for. I think it should be an activity from the government, and no one has asked about it.

Celebrities are still low now, so whenever there is any event, you don’t care about asking a few big names to come. Maybe the stars’ expenses are not as expensive as the venue and equipment.

So although there are often various performance invitations sent to the studio, Zhang Yanming was not interested and asked Zhang Yongguang to refuse. It is still very hard to come out and don’t make much money. What is the meaning of coming out?

Of course, he does not agree with the sky-high rewards for celebrities in a few years. Everything should have a degree and a standard.

When the performance ended, it was already late at night, and everyone returned to the hotel to rest.

The next day was Sunday, and everyone was free to go around and check out and buy something. However, it seemed that everyone was not very interested in the specialty products here, including Sun Hongye.

Basically, they all eat all kinds of food, sweets, pastries, and sugar, which are things that people as old as Zhang Yanming and Sun Hongye and others yearned for when they were young, and there has been no change in more than ten years.

Many famous time-honored brands and traditional delicacies have gradually lost their halo and become less popular because of this kind of lack of change.

In the 1970s, a piece of fruit candy could make children excited for several days.

In the 1980s, a piece of cake could make a child smile happily.

In the 1990s, beautiful clothes and imported toys occupied the hearts of children.

Everything is constantly moving forward, including preferences and temptations.

Those things that were famous all over the world dozens of years ago have become common and common today. If they do not change, they will naturally die.

Especially these so-called time-honored brands, historically famous food are all publicly operated. As for public enterprises, everyone will naturally understand it.

On Sunday night, Zhang Yanming was sitting on the sofa in the room and reading a map with Zhang Shencheng. Sun Hongye leaned against the head of the bed and read a book. Her phone rang.

Sun Hongye thought they were two little girls, but they connected without even looking at them.

"Sun Hongye of Fengcheng Industrial Company, right?"

Sun Hongye frowned: "Who?"

Although these things are not very particular, it feels extremely uncomfortable to be named by a very young man.

"I am from the Real Estate Association. I'm notifying you to attend the meeting tomorrow. Don't forget to come here as soon as possible."

"Who are you?"

“I’m a staff member.”

"Whose staff are you? What level are you? Did you just call my name?"

"I am a secretariat staff member of the association, please respect it."

"Do you respect me?"

"I just informed you to have a meeting. If you have the ability, you won't come. Where can I do what I can?" The other party hung up the phone directly.

Zhang Yanming looked up and said, "What's wrong?"

Sun Hongye threw the phone on the bed: "A from the Real Estate Association, a little secretary, notified me to go early tomorrow. I was as hard as a big man and called my name directly. Do you feel like I am an official?"

"Where are you angry with them? Just ignore them."

"I'm really a person now, but I didn't understand what kind of department it is? An association feels like a major department, and it's even put on the score. I won't go, it's true."

"You didn't plan to go there either. You've all been to Shencheng."

"You're angry with me, too."

"Hehe, don't dare, the sofa here is uncomfortable."

The two were making a fuss, and Sun Hongye's phone rang again.

Sun Hongye picked up the phone and looked at the number in Beijing. It was connected.

"Where is Xiao Sun? I am Lin Yongquan. I heard you are angry? I think the level of the person who notified you is not enough? Xiao Sun, everyone is for work, and we are not a government department. Don't talk about those false things, right?"

"Secretary General Lin, I'm a little busy. If you have any questions, please just tell me."
