Chapter 770 Place
Yanjing.
Rowling is now becoming more and more famous in China, including Hong Kong, Macau and even across the Taiwan Strait. Especially in the past two years, she has released several albums in Hong Kong, and each album has been a great success.
Her status in the current domestic music scene is not low at all. Apart from several well-known predecessors, Rowling is already a well-known "singer" in the country.
You should know that the title of singer is not something that just anyone can have. In Hong Kong, at best, they are singers or singing stars. Once they become a "singer", their identity and status will be far different.
Luo Lin has now re-enlisted in the army and is almost catching up with Lin Yuhang's rank. If Luo Lin wasn't so calm and didn't like to argue with others, and if she didn't put her family first, she would definitely be even more famous with her current fame.
To give a simple example, in recent years there have been many young people emerging in the entertainment industry, especially in the music industry, and even more who have become famous.
After becoming famous, these people began to pursue wealth. Because of this idea, a so-called activity emerged, which is "moonlighting".
The term "zouxue" is an old term, which in the old days referred to those artists who had no fixed place to work and performed in the arena. But nowadays, this term has emerged again, becoming a representative term for some actors (singers) who perform privately for profit and make extra money.
Since last year, the whole entertainment industry has gradually seen the phenomenon of performing for money. So far, performing for money has become the only way for many people in the entertainment industry to make money. Coupled increase in similar demands in society, performing for money has become the norm. Although various units in the entertainment industry have restrictions on performing for money for their actors (singers), performing for money cannot be stopped at all. Not to mention some famous singers in the music industry, even some well-known seniors have participated in it.
With Rowling's influence in the country, she has of course received requests to perform at various places. Some places and companies even offered Rowling extremely high performance fees. As long as Rowling nodded and went on stage to sing a song, she could get paid what an ordinary person would earn in many years in just a few minutes.
But such temptation may be great for others, but Rowling doesn't take it seriously at all.
Luo Lin is not short of money. She is different from other singers. From the beginning, Luo Yang produced and released her first album. All the subsequent albums were handed over to Luo Yang's company. Who is Luo Yang? He is Luo Lin's younger brother. They are a family. In order to make Luo Lin famous, Luo Yang put a lot of thought into it. With the help of Song Yuanchao, the sales of each of Luo Lin's albums are extremely amazing.
Because of this, Rowling has made a lot of money from the copyright and share of the record, and she has made much more money than most people. She has no idea that singing is a hobby or a career, and she is very pure in this respect.
Perhaps it was because of Rowling's attitude and ideas that she had no chance of performing for money and had never participated in any other private activities. Therefore, the leaders of the General Political Department highly appreciated Rowling's attitude. In addition, the Luo family was not an ordinary family and Rowling had the Luo family's background. How could such a good comrade not be promoted?
Even so, Rowling's current level is not low. In terms of level, it is almost the same as Lin Yuhang's level before he became a major. Moreover, whenever Lin Yuhang saw Rowling wearing a military uniform and looking heroic, his expression was filled with envy and yearning, because this was exactly what he had been wanting!
Today, Rowling went to work at the General Political Department as usual. She held a meeting in the morning and dealt with some work in the afternoon. Because there was a performance task coming up that required Rowling to lead the team, many preparations had to be arranged in advance.
After a busy day at get off work, Luo Lin packed up her things and went home. She rode her bicycle to the kindergarten to pick up Maomao. When she picked up Maomao, the kindergarten teacher told Luo Lin that Maomao had gotten into trouble again today. He beat up other children in the kindergarten and broke their heads.
This made Rowling very angry. She took the initiative to apologize to the other child's parents and scolded Maomao severely in front of the teacher. Maomao hung his head and said nothing. He also said sorry with a grunt. But Rowling, who knew her son, knew very well that the boy was not convinced.
"What? Are you not convinced?" On the way home, seeing that her son was still stubborn, Rowling asked with both anger and amusement.
"It wasn't my fault in the first place!" Maomao stiffened his neck and said, "If Xiaopang hadn't bullied Honghong and pulled her pigtails, why would I have hit him? You didn't see that Honghong was crying because of him. Besides, I only hit him lightly. Who made him so weak that he fell down with a thump? He even broke his head. Can you blame me?"
Rowling did not know whether to laugh or cry. As the teacher said before, Maomao could not be blamed entirely for the fight, but the problem was that Maomao, one of the two fighters, was unharmed, but Xiaopang had his head scratched and was crying loudly, looking very miserable.
"You are capable? You are right? You are right to beat up a kid? After all, this is an internal class conflict, not an external one. How did your parents educate you? How should you get along with other kids in kindergarten? Even if Xiaopang bullied Honghong, wouldn't you report it to the teacher? Why did you have to go up and hit him with your fists?"
"What's the use of reporting to the teacher? It's not like the teacher hasn't criticized Xiaopang before..." Maomao still said unconvinced, but his voice was much lower.
"Children should be united and friendly. It is wrong for Xiao Pang to bully Hong Hong, but violence should never be used to solve the problem. Think about it, if everyone does this, won't the society be in chaos? Kindergartens have their own rules, and teachers have their own responsibilities. In the future, if you encounter such a situation, you must report it to the teacher first, and let the teacher come forward to criticize Xiao Pang. If Xiao Pang does not change, the teacher will call Xiao Pang's parents for a talk, and then his parents will teach him a lesson, right? Maomao, you will graduate from kindergarten next year, and you will be a primary school student soon. You must understand what you can and cannot do, do you understand?"
"I know..." Maomao replied dejectedly, but he didn't agree in his heart. In his opinion, he was not wrong at all, it was all Xiaopang's fault, and if he hadn't cried so hard, why would the teacher come to trouble him? They were all boys, and they cried when they couldn't win the fight? It was too boring.
Thinking of this, Maomao suddenly looked up and asked Luo Lin: "Mom, when will brother Yangyang come back? I miss him and sister Nini. I haven't seen them for a long time."
Patting her son's head, Luo Lin smiled and said, "Your aunt just gave birth to a little sister, and the little sister is still breastfeeding. Brother Yangyang has to accompany his mother and sister, so he can't come over for the time being. Sister Nini is the same. She also has a brother, and she also wants to accompany her mother and brother. So Maomao, wait a few days, when your brothers and sisters grow up a little, they will be able to come to see you and play with you."
"How long will it take? Since brother Yangyang and sister Nini can't come, can't I go over to see them?" Maomao asked, then tilted his head and looked at Luo Lin who suddenly blurted out, "Mom, why don't you give me another brother or sister? Sister Nini and brother Yangyang already have brothers and sisters of their own, but I don't. No, I want brothers and sisters too. Mom, please, give me another one, otherwise... otherwise when I see them in the future, I'll be the only one without brothers or sisters. What a pity..."
Luo Lin burst out laughing. This kid's idea was really outrageous. He could even compete with others? I don't know what he was thinking in his little head. Luo Lin didn't say it was good or bad. She fooled her son with a few words. The little guy soon became happy and forgot about the scolding just now.
Returned home quickly.
Pushing the bicycle into the yard, Luo Lin saw Lin Yuhang's bicycle was already there. She was slightly stunned. Why did her husband come back so early today?
Just after parking the car, Lin Yuhang came out from the backyard after hearing the sound. He was very happy to see his father Maomao. He shouted "Dad, Dad" and ran over with his legs spread out.
Lin Yuhang squatted down and opened his arms. When his son jumped into his arms, he lifted him up, making the little guy giggle with joy.
He lifted his son up high several times, which made the little guy very happy. The father and son played for a while, and then put Maomao down.
"Why did you come back so early today?"
"I came back today after finishing something..." As he spoke, Lin Yuhang touched Maomao's head and pointed inside: "Maomao, go inside and play with Sister Xiaoxiao."
“Oh oh oh, I’m going to play!” Maomao smiled and ran to the backyard, shouting as he ran: “Sister Xiaoxiao! Sister Xiaoxiao! I’m back…!”
After sending his son away, Lin Yuhang took the bag from Luo Lin and they walked side by side. As they walked, he said, "The leader talked to me today and asked me some ideas..."
"The leader wants to talk to you? Why? Is he going to transfer your job?" Rowling stopped and asked.
Lin Yuhang nodded: "It's work, let's go inside and talk, this matter is a bit complicated."
When they got into the house, Lin Yuhang sat down and lit a cigarette before saying, "The reason the leader talked to me today was to ask if I was willing to go to the local government. You know, with the current reform and opening up, the work at the local level is more numerous and more difficult than the work at the higher level. Considering that I work in an enterprise and am a retired soldier, I have a greater advantage in this respect than ordinary cadres."
"My superior probably thought I knew more about economics, so he asked for my opinion after considering it..."
Lin Yuhang explained to Luo Lin that there is a severe shortage of capable and economically knowledgeable officials at the local level. Although reform and opening up have been going on for some years, the results have been uneven across the country for a variety of reasons. In order to implement policies and improve the quality and concepts of local officials, the higher authorities have decided to select a group of capable personnel from various government agencies to work at the local level.
