Chapter 1601: No Touching

Just as Yang Xiaotao finished modifying the design of the new three-roller rolling mill, the door was knocked again.

Lou Xiaoe got up and opened the door, and saw Director Li from the Propaganda Department walk in, followed by two women in military uniforms.

"General Manager Yang!"

Director Li walked in and said to Yang Xiaotao, "These two are Wang Xiaotang and Chen Feng from the Propaganda Department Drama Troupe."

"You two, this is our Yang Xiaotao, General Manager Yang, and also the screenwriter you need to find for the Ten Farewells to the Red Army."

After Director Li finished speaking, the two walked up to him, and the leading Director Wang took the initiative to extend his hand, "Hello, Comrade Yang Xiaotao."

"Hello!"

Yang Xiaotao extended his hand and shook it briefly, then looked at Director Li on the side.

Seeing this, Director Li hurriedly explained, "General Manager Yang, the two comrades came to see you specifically, and want to talk to you about some issues of the 'Ten Farewells to the Red Army'."

Yang Xiaotao nodded, then looked at the two.

"Please take a seat, both of you."

"Xiao'e, Xiao'e?"

"Ah, ah!"

Lou Xiao'e was a little absent-minded. When she heard Yang Xiaotao calling her, she realized, "Boss Yang."

Yang Xiaotao took a look and said, "Hurry up and pour some water."

"Oh."

Yang Xiaotao ignored Lou Xiao'e and looked at Secretary Wang. Only then did he realize that this person looked familiar.

But when he thought about it carefully, he couldn't remember who it was.

However, Yang Xiaotao was not surprised. He had seen so many celebrities since he came to this world. It was not surprising.

"Boss Yang."

Wang Xiaotang opened her mouth and showed her white teeth, "We are here to learn from you."

"We watched your factory's performance in the Propaganda Department, and the show was very exciting. Especially the 'Ten Farewells to the Red Army', which was very shocking."

"Not only did it move the masses, but it also has important educational significance. Our leaders specifically instructed that this spirit must be passed on."

"We came here this time just to talk to you. How did you come up with this?"

As Wang Xiaotang said, Chen Feng took out a pen and paper and looked at Yang Xiaotao with curiosity.

Even Director Li and Lou Xiaoe beside him looked over, waiting for Yang Xiaotao's answer.

Hearing the other party's question, Yang Xiaotao did not rush to answer, but raised his head and lowered his voice.

"This is not what I thought of."

Several people in the room were very surprised.

Then they saw Yang Xiaotao said seriously, "Because, he is the fact."

In the dim room, a yellow chandelier emitted a soft light.

The windows around were covered by thick curtains.

Even though it was sunny outside, the thick curtains could not be illuminated.

The room was warm. In the middle, a slightly thin figure wearing a thick coat leaned on a chair.

Looking closely, this man was over fifty years old, with a vicissitude on his face, but he had a kind of decisive momentum.

But at this moment, his eyes were a little erratic, as if searching for memory fragments in his mind.

On the table beside him, there was a marching water bottle and a pistol.

And in the man's hand, there was a roll of information, which was being held in his hand.

At the back of the room, a guard was sitting in front of the projector, projecting the picture onto the screen in front.

"Chief, it's ready."

The guard was ready, walked up to him, and spoke softly.

The interruption of his memories did not make him angry, but he tightened his woolen coat behind him and nodded unconsciously.

The guard immediately understood when he saw this, and then the projector started playing.

The picture soon appeared on the screen, but the sound was not loud, and it was obviously adjusted.

Watching an old lady sitting there, watching a burly man kneel down and kowtow, listening to the vague voice, the man felt his heartbeat speeding up.

At the same time, that vague voice made him feel bored.

"Louder, clearer."

A man's voice came from under the coat.

The guard hesitated for a second, but finally did it.

The voice became louder and the colors became brighter.

"When will the troops of Rigge return to the mountain? Where will the Red Army of Rigge be sent to?"

The sudden change made the man unconsciously put his hand on his forehead. The guard was about to step forward, but found that the man had taken his hand down.

He stared at the screen with an extremely focused expression.

When he saw the hats on the old lady's legs and the old man who cried his eyes out, tears welled up in the man's eyes.

After playing it once, the guard stopped the projector and did not step forward.

The sound spread in his ears, but what he heard was bursts of gunfire, explosions, and figures charging in front of him.

Among them, there was his own shadow.

Hard times, comradeship, life and death

Tears fell after all.

He had lost too much.

Then he picked up the kettle, twisted the gray lid, and drank gently.

"Play it again."

"Yes!"

The scene started again.

Outside the house.

Team leader Zhang was waiting on the side. There were two people beside him, a man and a woman, both with stern faces.

"You did this roughly."

The woman's voice sounded.

Team leader Zhang did not move after hearing it, but sighed and said, "It's too late to say this now. The other party is obviously not a good person."

"If you want to blame someone, you can only blame me for being careless and underestimating the enemy."

The woman still snorted coldly after hearing it, "Can it be explained by being careless and underestimating the enemy?"

"He has real strength! Otherwise, there would be so many people standing up for him."

"Also, look at the people you are looking for. One was sent away and lost face, and this one died in an unclear way. Now there are rumors outside that his intestines are rotten, which is retribution."

"Not enough to do things, but more than enough to cause trouble!"

"It makes us very passive."

Team leader Zhang opened his mouth, but did not say much.

Seeing this, the woman did not continue to ridicule, but talked about this incident instead.

"Did they look for you?"

"Yes."

"They are investigating the source of the information."

"They have found me now, but I hid it from them."

As soon as Team Leader Zhang finished speaking, the woman next to him snorted again.

"It seems that you have lived like dogs in the past few years."

"Is it not clear what secrets can be told and what cannot be told?"

"This time you appeared openly at the table of outsiders, what do you want to do?"

"Do you think they don't know? Do you think you hid it from them? If it weren't for me."

Just when he was halfway through his words, the door suddenly opened and a man in a coat stood at the door.

Only then did the few people realize that the voice they spoke just now was a bit loud, and they should have disturbed the people inside.

"Have you finished reading?"

The woman glanced at the man, without much respect.

Although there was a gap in status between the two, they were now in a cooperative relationship.

The man nodded, then looked at Team Leader Zhang on the side.

"Take the projector back and watch it when you have nothing to do."

Team leader Zhang nodded quickly, "Yes, Chief."

The man turned back to look at the woman again, "Starting today, the matter of the machinery factory and this Yang Xiaotao are not allowed to be touched."

After saying that, he tightened his coat and walked out.

After taking two steps, four guards immediately gathered around him, surrounding him from front and back.

The woman then realized that although the man's expression was the same as before, his eyes were red, and he had obviously cried.

After the man walked away, the woman came back to her senses, and a hint of resentment flashed in her eyes.

This was the third time she heard this sentence today, although it was long and short, but the meaning was the same.

The woman also knew why they said this.

In fact, after watching the film, she also understood their feelings.

Especially the group of people who created miracles, they engraved that period of time in their minds.

This time, this stage play awakened the memories in their minds and let reason and friendship prevail.

But she understood, but she would not let her emotions get the better of her.

After the man disappeared in the corridor, the woman took a deep breath and looked at Team Leader Zhang.

"You can't stay in this city anymore, you should go to Shanghai."

Hearing this, Team Leader Zhang was panicked and his body shook.

But looking at the expression on the other side, he knew that he could not stay in this city.

"Okay, I'll get ready now."

Although he was unwilling, he also understood the interests.

"Go with confidence, I will settle the investigation here for you."

"After you go there, the current work will continue."

"Of course, you have to think about what you can do and what you can't do."

Team Leader Zhang nodded immediately.

"Let's go."

After saying that, the woman walked towards the meeting room, but just as she raised her front foot to step out, she stopped and turned around.

Thinking of what the man said just now, that man is a man of his word. If his subordinates provoke him again, it might involve herself.

Thinking of these troublesome subordinates, the woman decided to give them another warning.

"Remember, don't touch the machinery factory, and don't investigate Yang Xiaotao."

"This is the end of the matter."

"Of course, if you insist on investigating him, don't blame me for not reminding you when something goes wrong."

After saying this, she really left this time.

Team leader Zhang ignored the cold sweat on his forehead and nodded in agreement.

The middle-aged man on the side did the same. When there were only two of them, he pulled his clothes and said, "Old Zhang, you have caused me a lot of trouble this time."

The person who provided the personal information was him.

When Old Zhang found him and wanted to retrieve the file, he thought it was just a check to confirm his background and didn't take it seriously.

But he didn't expect it to really happen.

"Alas, I didn't know it would be like this."

"Old brother, I am like this, alas."

After saying this, he sighed and was very helpless.

The middle-aged man curled his lips after hearing this, "What's wrong with you? You can still do a lot in Shanghai. It's a pity for me."

Team leader Zhang had a serious expression, "Don't worry, I'm here and I won't make it difficult for you."

At the Red Star Machinery Factory, after Yang Xiaotao finished talking about the creation process and the main ideas he wanted to express, Wang Xiaotang and the others expressed their gratitude.

Then the two stood up and said goodbye.

They also saw that Yang Xiaotao was very busy, so they didn't bother him.

After the two left, Lou Xiaoe smiled excitedly, "Mr. Yang, do you know who Wang Xiaotang is?"

"Who is it?"

Yang Xiaotao walked to the side, picked up the enamel pot and took a sip, and asked by the way.

"Have you seen Heroes and Courage? This is the person who plays Alan."

"By the way, there is also the one that was released last year, Fighting Ancient City, which she also played."

Lou Xiaoe became more and more excited as she spoke, and her eyes were full of star-chasing twinkles.

After she reminded Yang Xiaotao, he remembered who it was.

But it was just a thought.

"Why, you want to be an actress too?"

Lou Xiao'e nodded seriously, "Who wouldn't want to?"

"Unfortunately, being an actress is not easy, you have to have talent, be able to speak and sing, I'd better forget it."

After hearing this, Lou Xiao'e immediately returned to her seat, pouting, "With my ability, I can only play an old lady."

After hearing this, Yang Xiaotao was very satisfied with Lou Xiao'e's self-knowledge.

"It's good to be self-aware."

"But it's still missing something."

Lou Xiao'e looked up and asked curiously, "What's missing?"

Yang Xiaotao picked up the drawings on the table and walked out, "It's just an old lady, it's better not to play it."

After saying that, he walked out of the office.

Lou Xiao'e behind him reacted and waved at Yang Xiaotao's back, "Who are you looking down on."
