Chapter 16 Grand Performance

Of course everyone likes performances.

Yu Weiwei was still immersed in her own role and couldn't extricate herself.

Zhu Xiaojie felt a little regretful. She wondered why she didn't take the lead role and give the performance opportunity to Yu Weiwei.

After all, it was because she was too smart and didn't like taking risks, so she missed the opportunity to play the leading role.

And Feng Mingxun, who watched the show from beginning to end without saying a word, was probably the only one who knew the anger in his heart.

"What about the third scene? When will it start? Also, who is the person who bullied you?" He stopped Su Xiangyu and asked this.

This is why Su Xiangyu came on stage at the beginning and said that this story was purely fictional.

Even Feng Mingxun thought that she ran to the chicken coop because she was bullied by some educated youth?

Oh, shouldn't he be worried about Su Xiangxiu who is devastated now?

"Ye Xiangdong has explained to you clearly the sources of the materials I feed the chickens. And Director Feng, we have broken up. You have no right to ask about my private life, right?" Su Xiangyu said.

She was busy accepting the system's praise and had no time to talk nonsense with him.

[The host's play has touched a large number of female educated youth. Their favorability towards you has been increasing. Most of the female educated youth in the entire farm have become your fans. You have gained another 5,000 gold coins.] The system said.

Su Xiangyu doesn't want fans, she only cares about the most important thing: "Didn't you save a life? If you still have money, just give me RMB. I don't want to hear your Zimbabwean currency."

[This time the host received a total of RMB 398 in rewards.] The system said.

"Then can I take it out and spend it now?" Su Xiangyu said.

[Yes.] The system is so generous.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier? If I had known that I could make money by increasing my favorability, I would have just become a philanthropist. Why would I still work so hard to feed chickens?" Su Xiangyu said.

[Because you are bound to the breeding system, and only by breeding can you build a beautiful border town.] The system kindly reminded Su Xiangyu.

In fact, Su Xiangyu thought about it and realized that there was really no place to spend money in this shabby farm.

She has to become the director so that she can continue to engage in construction. Only by developing the construction and making more money can she go to big places and cities to enjoy herself and spend money happily.

Of course, that's all later. The first step of a long journey still has to start from the ground up.

The next evening, the auditorium was in complete silence as the third act of the play began.

Xiaohua, played by Yu Weiwei, has been forced to the brink of hanging by the bad educated youth Xiaoqiang. At this time, she dared not report to the farm office because she was afraid that the farm office would do ideological work on her and make her fall in love with Xiaoqiang. At the same time, after she raised the chickens, a custodian came and tried to take the credit.

Disaster after disaster pushed Xiaohua to the point of committing suicide.

Finally, on a snowy and cold night, she walked into the snow.

But the turning point came at this moment and things suddenly turned positive.

An engineer from a chemical plant caught Xiaoqiang when he was stealing chemical raw materials and sent him to the public security bureau.

By sending Xiaoqiang away, Xiaohua's life would be saved.

Then, after hearing that Xiaohua was raising chickens, he discussed with the factory leaders and provided all the raw materials for free. As a result, the egg production doubled, and Xiaohua and Yu Lei's lives became better and better.

The engineer of the chemical plant was played by Qi Dali, who was so impressed yesterday that he enthusiastically joined the performance today.

His positive and generous image has won unanimous praise from everyone.

If the last story was purely fictional, then the custodian this time must be Zhu Lin without a doubt.

So a large group of educated youth pointed and talked, and all stared at Zhu Lin with their angry eyes.

"Why are you pointing at me? Didn't you say that the story is fictional? Su Xiangyu, tell me whether this story is fictional or not?" Zhu Lin was so anxious that she stood up and said.

Su Xiangyu didn't care about all this. She only knew that her story of raising chickens had become popular among the entire farm.

"Su Xiangyu, stop right there." Feng Mingxun was chasing after her quickly.

"Who is the person who bullied you? Why didn't you tell me?" He was furious. Obviously, he was still immersed in the play and couldn't come out of it?

"I have said that this story is purely fictional. I just want to use this story to tell everyone how to raise chickens. Director Feng, what's wrong with you? You are so impulsive. I don't think you are yourself anymore." Su Xiangyu said.

Feng Mingxun was stunned for a long time before he said, "This story can only be performed once. From now on, you must focus on your work and you can't perform this story again. Of course, our breakup is over. I have to announce in public that you are still my partner."

"We have broken up, Director Feng. Are you still dreaming? We are both candidates now and have to run for the position of field director." Su Xiangyu said.

Feng Mingxun adjusted his glasses. Perhaps because he was breathing too heavily, there was a layer of white mist on his eyes.

"Do you think you can really compete with me for the position of director?" He sneered, "You are a few tattered female educated youths, who have no performance and no appearance. Don't embarrass me anymore. We must stop this program."

Obviously, he sensed the crisis, so he took desperate measures, fearing that her program would be broadcast and would attract the attention of the headquarters.

Yu Lei rolled up his sleeves and was about to go up and beat someone up, but Su Xiangyu pulled him back.

"Let's go, our show has achieved its effect."

Sure enough, what Feng Mingxun did not expect was that he was trying hard to suppress Su Xiangyu's program.

However, the educated youth spread the news to each other, and one person told ten people, and ten people told a hundred people. Two days later, Zuo Qing'an, the propaganda officer of Chaoyang Farm headquarters, actually came to the door.

As soon as he saw Feng Mingxun, he said straight to the point: "I heard that a few educated youths in your farm have put together a very good play. Why didn't you report it? Director Feng, your work attitude is not very positive."

"They are just a bunch of little girls playing around. They don't have any talent for performing. They are just fooling around." Feng Mingxun said quickly.

He was unwilling to admit that Su Xiangyu could stage a drama, and could tell a story so smoothly and spark such heated discussions among everyone.

Of course, the main reason was that he didn't want to admit that Su Xiangyu was much better than he thought.

Secretary Zuo didn't think so. "How is that possible? Several comrades in our headquarters are talking about it, saying that they performed well and promoted scientific methods of raising chickens. Let them prepare and report to the headquarters on New Year's Day. I will add more programs for them."

Just like that, suddenly, raising chickens became a program to be performed at the New Year's Day parade in front of thousands of educated youth at the headquarters.

Feng Mingxun was stunned for a long time, unable to recover and accept this fact.

Of course, he couldn't disobey the order from the headquarters, so he had to find Su Xiangyu to inform her of this matter.

"Performing at the main venue is of course great, but the girls in the art troupe can earn ten work points a day just by performing. Our actors both work and perform, so how should these work points be recorded?" said Su Xiangyu.

[The host is sensible and considerate of others, and can build the favorability of the educated youth, so that you will not lose too badly in the election of the field leader. ] said the system.

"Forget it, I didn't mean to help others. I just couldn't stand what Feng Mingxun did." Su Xiangyu said.

"One person gets five extra work points a day. I'll ask the scorekeeper to make up for it. That should be OK, right?" Feng Mingxun said unhappily.

Of course, even up to now, not to mention him, even the system still does not think that Su Xiangyu can succeed in the election for the director of the branch field.

But what does it matter?

Once Su Xiangyu has decided on something, she must achieve it.

During the final performance, Su Xiangyu finally met her stepsister Su Xiangxiu backstage.

The five red women soldiers in "I Donate Food to the Motherland" put on the most beautiful makeup and wore brand new military uniforms. They looked really beautiful.

The few people brought by Su Xiangyu were all performing in their true colors. Yu Lei's belt was almost falling to the ground. Yu Weiwei and Zhu Xiaojie came directly after work without even changing their clothes.

When they met backstage, Su Xiangyu's team was so much like Su Xiangxiu's team from Journey to the West.

"Sister, you guys look great." Su Xiangxiu raised her little fist and said, "Keep going."

In her first life, Su Xiangxiu was always like this. She actually had very little contact with Su Xiangyu in private. And later, after her father Su Yao died, there was no relationship between the two of them.

However, whenever we meet, Su Xiangxiu is always so innocent and cute.

If Su Xiangyu treated her a little coldly, people around her would say that she was abusing her stepsister.

In her first life, Su Xiangyu was always afraid that she wasn't doing well enough, and she was always trembling with fear when she saw this cute and innocent sister, fearing that if she didn't behave well, others would talk about her behind her back.

She didn't care about that now.

"You guys should do your best too," she said frankly.

At this time, Yu Lei was about to appear on stage. Wang Qiushi held Su Xiangxiu's hand and whispered something in her ear.

Su Xiangxiu smiled at first, and kept shaking her head to refuse, but after being pushed a few times by Wang Qiushi, she suddenly stepped forward and patted Yu Lei on the shoulder: "Come on, Comrade Xiao Yu, your performance will definitely be great," she said.

[Host, the system has detected that Yu Lei's fate has been changed again. You will be deducted 5,000 gold coins as a reward.] The system gave a timely reminder.

As for Yu Lei, he kept staring at Su Xiangxiu who was putting on makeup.

"Is it fun to raise chickens?" Wang Qiushi leaned behind Su Xiangxiu and said curiously.

Yu Lei didn't say anything.

Wang Qiushi then asked: "You raise chickens so you must have lots of eggs to eat. Oh, our Captain Su, I haven't eaten eggs in a long time."

Now that's good. Yu Lei almost said, if you want to eat, I'll steal some eggs for you.

Su Xiangyu saw it, patted Yu Lei on the shoulder, and said, "Hurry up and get ready, as all the leaders of the headquarters are watching." She went on stage first, and Yu Lei seemed to come to his senses.

Of course, it was at this time that Ye Xiangdong, who was dusty and untidy, came in from outside.

As soon as he entered the door, he had to put pockmarks on his face, paint his nose red, and comb his hair into that disgusting traitor's hairstyle.

The backstage was crowded and everyone was busy putting on makeup.

Wang Qiushi from the art troupe shook Zheng Chunyu and said, "Hey, look, that boy is really handsome, but he drew himself really ugly."

He is indeed handsome, but his military coat looks a bit ill-fitting and bulging.

After the makeup is done, it's like a real transformation. Such a handsome young man is transformed into a bully like Huang Shiren or Nan Batian and goes on stage.

"My father's illness has worsened again, and he wants a daughter-in-law now. Alas!" Before going on stage, Ye Xiangdong looked at Su Xiangyu with particular sadness and said.

Rosacea, little brat, he was as ugly as he could be, but the sadness in his eyes was something he couldn't fake.

Looks really sad.

Moreover, his eyes were too much like Su Xiangyu's ex-husband, the professor in her first life who went into business. He seemed gentle and elegant on the surface, but he was extremely cruel and took away all her property.

Although Su Xiangyu wanted to vomit when she looked at him, she changed her mind and thought that he was her younger brother and she couldn't discriminate against him, so she patted his shoulder and said, "Everything will be fine, come on."

Of course, the girls in the art troupe were particularly curious about what kind of program Su Xiangyu had arranged that led to her being able to perform at the main venue, and they all gathered behind the scenes to watch.

This was a type of performance they had never seen before.

Yu Weiwei is timid, ugly and not very pretty, and she is the most conspicuous among the educated youth. She looks helpless when being bullied, and she protects the chicks when raising them, hoping that they will lay more eggs. Also, Ye Xiangdong, the remarkably bad educated youth, and the carefree Yu Lei, are all so addictive that you can't stop watching.

Until the very end, when the curtain fell, unlike other performances, the audience would not applaud enthusiastically.

The auditorium was packed with people, but no one applauded for a long time.

At this time, several actors held hands and bowed to everyone together: "The story is purely fictional. There is no bad educated youth like Xiaoqiang in our farm. All our educated youth are positive and love the motherland and the border town. The reason why the egg production of our farm has increased is all thanks to Comrade Ye Xiangdong from the chemical plant who selflessly brought us their chemical raw materials. Here, we have to thank Comrade Ye Xiangdong, thank the chemical plant, and even more thank the leaders of the farm."

Of course, this can only be announced on stage after obtaining Ye Xiangdong's consent.

As for how Ye Xiangdong negotiated with their chemical factory, that was his own business.

In short, the chemical plant helped the farm and increased the production of eggs, which immediately pushed the whole story to a higher level.

Of course, there was already a lively discussion going on in the audience.

This program not only highlights the survival difficulties of the female educated youth, but also demonstrates the farm's chicken-raising methods.

And even if the plot is fictional, the character of Xiaoqiang is enough to arouse everyone's discussion.

The director of the farm is Ji Huaiguo. I was not very happy when I first watched it, after all, the whole program was discrediting the male educated youth on the farm.

But when he heard the last few educated youth holding hands and saying a bunch of high-sounding words, he laughed again and said to the propaganda officer Zuo Qingan beside him: "There are definitely no such bad elements in our farm, but other farms may not be so."

There are so many farms and hundreds of thousands of educated youth in the border town, so it is inevitable that there will be some bad elements.

Zuo Qingan actually wanted to say that there were many bad elements like this in Chaoyang Farm.

But since the farm manager said so, of course he had to agree: "Yes, yes, yes, it's hard to say about other farms."

Sitting on both sides of Ji Huaiguo were the managers of the ten subordinate farms.

Feng Mingxun was the best branch chief and sat next to him.

"From tomorrow on, the male educated youth will continue to dig the drainage ditches, but the female educated youth will all go to raise □□." He said: "We can't let the female educated youth work too hard. Look at the two on the stage, it's really sad to see them."

Of course, after Su Xiangyu stepped down from the stage, she was waiting to be received by the leaders.

[Congratulations to the host. As long as the chicken-raising task is promoted, the educated youth in the border town will have eggs to eat. Your reward has been received.] The rigid system will praise people?

One hundred thousand gold coins, that's a thousand dollars.

Su Xiangyu was of course happy, but just like adding fuel to a fire and blooming flowers, she had more important things to do.

Over there, the head of the field, Ji Huaiguo, listened to the various sub-field heads' discussions for a long time, and suddenly asked, "Comrade Su Xiangyu, have you also signed up to run for the position of head of a sub-field?"

That's right. It's time for Su Xiangyu to step up and show herself in front of the leaders to lay a solid foundation for the position of field director.
