Chapter 392 Playing Mahjong


    "Hong Kong will become the Waterloo of the ''Iron Lady''''s political career!"


    The international media used this headline to describe Thatcher''s somersault.


    In order to show respect, the mainland downplayed the matter, but the Hong Kong media was already at a fever pitch. The pro-British faction insisted that Thatcher had just completed varicose vein surgery, went to work before recovering, and was overworked, so she accidentally fell.


    Those who watch the excitement and are not afraid of serious trouble describe it as: "I hit a snag during the negotiation, and walked out of the door with a lonely look, feeling uneasy..."


    In short, after Thatcher''s fall, the Hong Kong stock index fell by 25 points.


    The U.S. dollar hit a new low of 1:6.97 against the Hong Kong dollar, and plummeted all the way, reaching a minimum of 1:9. It was not until the British Hong Kong government guaranteed 100% foreign exchange reserves that it pegged the U.S. dollar at an exchange rate of 1:7.75, and it stabilized.


    Before Thatcher fell, many people in Hong Kong waved and cheered with the power of victory over the Falklands.


    After the fall, no one with a right mind would think that Britain still had any chance, and Hong Kong would definitely take it back! Regardless of her reasons, if she falls, she falls. Ordinary people only see this result.


    …


    "Ahhh, it moved!"


    "What should I do? What should I do?"


    At the Clearwater Bay set at night, Gong Xue was screaming while holding the steering wheel. Li Lianlian was sitting in the back with a panicked look on his face. Xiao Mo was calmly instructing the co-pilot: "Tap the left foot lightly with your left foot, and step lightly with the right foot in the middle..."


    "The one on the left! The one in the middle! The one on the left! The one in the middle!"


    This shows Xiao Mo''s experience. He didn''t talk about clutch or brake, but directly talked about the position. Gong Xue found it successfully, and the speed of the car slowed down. The little rookie gained courage again: "Wow, I''m driving!"


    "Turn the steering wheel slowly, in a circle, as many times as you want!"


    "Wow!"


    Gong Xue smiled happily, successfully circling the field three times, and still had more to say. Li Lianlian couldn''t wait to seize the position: "It''s my turn! It''s my turn!"


    His operation was smoother, and he went around a few times. Xiao Mo looked at the time and asked, "Sister Xue, are you still practicing?"


    "Let''s practice again tomorrow, go back first!"


    "good!"


    Li Lianjie wanted to drive a little longer, but Xiao Mo didn''t listen to him and had to give up the driving seat.


    This is the crew of "Tai Chi 3". After the two of them got off the show, they just followed and learned to drive. Li Lianjie sat in the passenger seat and said, "Xiao Mo, how long do you think it will take us to learn?"


    “…”


    Xiao Mo glanced at him, "When Brother Qi was here, you called me Xiao Mo, and I didn''t pick on you; now that Brother Qi is gone, what do you think you should call me?"


    "Well!"


    Li Lianjie didn''t wait to respond, feeling a little embarrassed. Gong Xue tried to smooth things over: "Can we learn it in a week?"


    "It''s easy to learn, but the key is to be proficient in driving, which takes time."


    "Does this mean we have to buy our own car?"


    "Hong Kong cars are very cheap. This car costs just over HK$10,000."


    "It''s cheap but not good. I have to save money to buy a good one!" Li Lian said.


    Gong Xue also glanced at him. This kid sometimes spoke too bluntly and asked deliberately: "Hey, you are so confident, how much bonus did you get?"


    "Hey, not much! You must have more than me."


    "I don''t get a penny of bonus!"


    "Huh? Brother Qi didn''t give you a bonus?"


    "I''m not from your company, but Beijing Film Studio gave me a hundred yuan."


    Li Lianjie suddenly felt a little sympathetic. He leaned over and whispered, "Sister, don''t tell anyone. Brother Qi gave me a total of 10,000 yuan for the two "Tai Chi" movies."


    "RMB?"


    "Uh-huh!"


    Gong Xue knew how important he was to Chen Qi, so she held him in her arms and chatted: "You can do that. All the film actors in the country don''t make as much as you do. Unlike me, the money I have is not enough to lose in mahjong. "


    "They also asked you to play mahjong?"


    "There''s no way you can escape!"


    Li Lianjie became even more sympathetic and suddenly said, "You won''t borrow money from me, will you?"


    "Would you like to borrow it?"


    "I''m sure I can borrow it. You are just like my sister."


    Li Lianjie smiled, and Gong Xue also smiled. Chen Qi''s evaluation of him came to mind: greedy for fame and money, easy to go to extremes, affectionate, but not too much... He returned to the dormitory building.


    Both of them live on the 8th floor, the same floor as Fu Qi''s family.


    As soon as the elevator opened, Gong Xue came out quietly, made a shushing gesture, and walked quietly to her room. As soon as she took out the key, the door next door opened and Shi Nansheng ran out.


    "Why did you come back? I was waiting for you!"


    "Oh, you guys should find someone else, I really don''t know how to play!"


    "Hurry up, it''s just in time for Xuehua!"


    Gong Xue was dragged in without tears, and Li Lianjie gave him a helpless expression.


    …


    "Xiao Gong, come on, come on!"


    "Why are you back so late?"


    It has been put in the room for a long time. Fu Qi is not here, and he may not be able to stand the chattering of women. Only the hard-working Fu Mingxian is at home serving tea and water.


    Shi Hui was dressed in home clothes, like an ordinary Hong Kong mistress. Zhong Chuhong was dressed coolly, still showing her thighs. She smiled politely at Gong Xue without saying anything. There was a small pile of change in front of her. She seemed to be lucky.


    Later Liu Xuehua loved to play mahjong. He was still young now, and he was caught to make up the numbers. He shouted: "You are finally back. Three of you beat me. It''s your turn!"


    She stood up and pushed Gong Xue into her position. Shi Nansheng also sat down and shuffled the cards.


    “You’re so tired from filming, why don’t you relax!”


    "I won''t keep you any longer. I''ll beat you eight times and let you go!"


    "All right…"


    Gong Xue had no choice but to take out some change from her bag. It wasn''t a big deal, but she couldn''t accept it at first.


    Bet money!


    Those who are shot in mainland China will be shot within five minutes!


    She was sitting in Shi Hui''s house. Her boss was Shi Nansheng, and opposite her was Zhong Chuhong. She was clumsily arranging and combining the code cards, two or three, which one could be touched and which one could be eaten...


    Liu Xuehua sat on the sofa and watched TV with Fu Mingxian.


    The news about Thatcher was being broadcast on TV.


    Shi Hui said: "I read some English newspapers. Don''t be too funny. Unless she just had the operation, does it matter whether she has the operation? If she does the operation, Hong Kong will not take it back?"


    "Sister Hui, do you mean that Hong Kong must be taken back?" Zhong Chuhong asked.


    "Of course it has to be collected. The British lost nine feet of one foot of cloth - only one foot of cloth was left! Remember back then, the Hong Kong military and police got into trouble and went to Sha Tau Kok to shoot. Not even our militiamen were there. Beaten.


    In my opinion, the policy is too stable and makes the British worry about food rather than fighting, so they should just bulldoze it! "


    "Sister Hui, why don''t you consider my mood? I''m a local!" Zhong Chuhong said.


    "You are a **** too, don''t be afraid... Xiao Gong, let''s play cards!" Shi Hui urged.


    "Wait a minute!"


    Gong Xue looked at the cards hurriedly and hesitated: "I seem to be confused?"


    "Push it if you''re messed up!" Shi Nansheng said.


    "I''m not sure!"


    "Then you''re going to blow it up!" Zhong Chuhong said with a smile.


    "Oh, I, I..."


    Gong Xue still reached out and pushed. Shi Nansheng looked at it and said with a smile: "Butt Hu? It''s okay, Butt Hu is also a Hu. Do you think you are getting more and more skilled? I said Shanghai women are born to play mahjong."


    "I don''t agree. Women in the capital can also play!" Liu Xuehua shouted.


    "Then you don''t dare to play?" Shi Hui said.


    "Hong Kong women are the ones who know how to play!" Zhong Chuhong said.


    "Yes, yes, women from the capital are going to the Spring Festival Gala!" Shi Nansheng said.


    "Hahaha!"


    How terrifying is the power of four women laughing together? Liu Xuehua was furious and pinched Fu Mingxian''s fat face.
