My Entertainment Circle

Chapter 1001 Family Dinner at Taeyeon's House

The small talk between car fans became much simpler, as Taeyeon's father was an old car fan. In fact, many men have a car dream. Who doesn't want to own a cool car when they are young? It's just that the economy at that time couldn't support them to play with cars, so the sales of car magazines in those years were quite high. Whether it was the modified 'JDM' or the European supercars, they were very attractive to people at that time.

Zhang Pingan and Taeyeon's father mostly talked about some 'models of the year' and they were all Japanese cars. What red-headed Honda, what S2000, Impreza STI, Mitsubishi EVO. Maybe Japanese cars were closer to Taeyeon's father at that time? After all, the imported sports cars at that time were too expensive, and these Japanese cars were relatively much cheaper.

Zhang Pingan was a student studying in Japan, and he had played with many Japanese 'JDM'. Of course, he was not crazy enough to play the 'Capital High' of underground racing. Racetracks and mountain roads can be played with as long as safety is guaranteed, but if you violate the law and drive on the highway late at night, you are simply playing with your life.

Zhang Pingan and Taeyeon's father talked a lot about the cars that appeared in Jin Zhiyong's Japanese racing comics. Jin Zhiyong turned around and asked Zhang Pingan, "You know "Initial D", right? Didn't Takumi's father change the engine in the back? Is that engine powerful?"

Zhang Pingan laughed, "Not powerful. Subaru and Mitsubishi are much more powerful than it. In the end, wasn't Takumi taught a lesson by his father driving a Subaru? 260 horsepower can only run in the mountains. If it is to go to a regular racetrack, the engine is too weak."

Taeyeon's brother said, "Is the best car to drive a Ferrari?"

Zhang Pingan smiled and responded, "If you just talk about running In the car, Ferrari is indeed the best to drive. But for sedans, at this point in time, I personally think it is Audi RS, its four-wheel drive system is too good. When the BMW 'M' series will add the four-wheel drive system, that's another story. It has been confirmed that Mercedes-Benz will add the four-wheel drive system to the 'E63S' in the second half of the year. By then, it will be a three-way competition again, and it will no longer be the 'RS' that directly occupies the top position. "

Just as Zhang Pingan and the other three men were chatting around the 'car', the password key of the room door sounded again. Everyone looked in the direction of the door. After a while, Taeyeon came to the living room happily. The first thing that came into view was Zhang Pingan sitting alone on a single sofa, while her family sat on a long sofa.

This scene was similar to what she imagined, so after entering the room, Taeyeon smiled instantly. She was the first to greet her father: "Dad." Then Taeyeon's eyes drifted to Zhang Pingan. She didn't say hello to Zhang Pingan, but she signaled to Zhang Pingan with her eyes, especially her irrepressible smile, which was a kind of 'gloating' expression.

Taeyeon didn't say hello to her brother and sister. She turned around and walked to her mother who was busy in the kitchen. She hugged her mother and acted like a spoiled child next to her mother. Zhang Pingan understood very well. After all, Taeyeon's job was in Seoul, and she didn't have much time to go back often, so it was normal for her to miss her family.

Taeyeon hugged her mother and called coquettishly: "o-ma~~"

Taeyeon's mother smiled kindly: "Hey~~Are you still a child? Go change your clothes and get ready for dinner."

Taeyeon let go of her mother: "Well, I'll go change my clothes first."

When her eyes turned back to the living room, she saw that Zhang Pingan's eyes were always on her. Taeyeon wrinkled her nose at him, and then walked towards the bedroom.

Taeyeon came back, and the atmosphere in the room became much better. Zhang Pingan said to Taeyeon's father at this time: "By the way, uncle, are you free in April? If you are free, let's go to the Shanghai Auto Show together. Shanghai is also a very impressive auto show in Asia. It just so happens that I have a newly launched 'Ford GT' in China. This car is Ford's car to commemorate its victory in Le Mans. Can we go to the racetrack to have fun then?"

Taeyeon's father declined and said: "Forget it, forget it. I'm old, so I won't bother with these things. If I were ten years younger, I could go to the auto show and try racing. Now... there's really no need for that."

Taeyeon changed her clothes and came out, just in time to hear what her father was saying. She asked curiously, "What else are you talking about?"

Zhang Ping'an smiled and responded, "I wanted to invite my uncle to the Shanghai Auto Show."

Taeyeon said, "Auto Show? To be honest, I have never been to an auto show."

Zhang Ping'an smiled and said, "In September, Frankfurt, the world's largest auto show, are you going?"

Taeyeon shook her head and said, "I don't have time. I may have to hold many concerts this year."

As Taeyeon finished speaking, her mother said, "It's time to eat, it's time to eat, Xia Yan, Taeyeon, come and help set the table."

Taeyeon's family dinner, traditional Korean dishes, and Jeonju is the best in traditional Korean cuisine. It must be said that Taeyeon's mother has a little talent for food in color matching, at least Zhang Ping'an looks quite appetizing.

Zhang Pingan smiled and said: "Wow, Taeyeon, you ate these delicacies every day when you were a child? Isn't this so happy?" Zhang Pingan praised Taeyeon's mother's craftsmanship in a different way. Such a simple sentence made Taeyeon happy. Yan's mother was happy.

Taeyeon said very honestly: "No way, this is done according to the holiday tradition, it only happens once a year."

"Yeah~!" Taeyeon's mother shouted immediately.

Taeyeon's father then gestured to Zhang Pingan with a soju bottle: "Drink some?"

Zhang Pingan glanced at Taeyeon, then picked up the wine glass and poured it from her father. The Korean tradition is that the first cup requires the elder to pour the wine for the younger generation before they can drink it, and they must turn sideways to show respect.

Zhang Ping'an followed the traditional Korean etiquette and drank the first glass of soju while leaning slightly sideways. Taeyeon said to her father at this time: "Abba, don't fight with him. He usually drinks Chinese spirits, which are 40 or 50 degrees. Drinking this is like drinking water. ”

Zhang Pingan immediately said: "How can it be like drinking water? This wine has a lot of stamina."

Taeyeon's father smiled and said, "How many bottles of Korean soju have you drunk?"

Zhang Ping'an responded: "I only start to get tipsy after three bottles. Usually when I get tipsy, I won't drink anymore."

Taeyeon nodded and helped Zhang Ping'an and said, "He drinks very restrainedly."

Taeyeon's mother then said, "Well, this is good, this is good."

Many Koreans love to drink, which is similar to Japan. Not to mention South Korea and Japan, the same is true for China, because the older generation’s life pressure is very high, and drinking was the only low-consumption pastime for them in that era?

Isn't there a classic line in "My Uncle"? Today's schools still ask parents what their specialties are. How could people of their generation have any specialties? You can't even eat enough, so you're so good at it? The only specialty I can draw is that I'm good at drinking, but I don't know if this can be considered a specialty!

This line also expresses the bitterness of people of that era.

Let’s not talk about the age of our parents. Let’s talk about Zhang Pingan and his children, who were born in the mid-1980s. What are their specialties? There was football and basketball in the physical education classes during this period. If a father in his thirties could still continue to exercise, football was the only one.

Because not everyone's family conditions were good in the 1980s, sometimes a family's child would appear in the yard and buy a football, and everyone would chase the ball like crazy dogs, just to kick the ball a few more times.

It's not like today's children of the 90s and 00s, who have all kinds of weird training classes. Training courses for the 80s, Mathematical Olympiad, are you going to learn it?

Taeyeon's mother said: "By the way, I heard Taeyeon say some time ago that you made some investments with her?"

Zhang Pingan nodded and said: "Yes. I invested some casually when I saw the opportunity. Well, because my family is in an investment company, and I also graduated in finance, I still have some personal opinions on investment."

Taeyeon's mother said politely: "Anyway, thank you very much. I heard from Taeyeon that she made a lot of money."

Zhang Pingan said with a smile: "This kind of opportunity is very rare, and it is unlikely that such an opportunity will appear again in the future."

Taeyeon's mother put the vegetables in Zhang Ping'an's bowl and asked, "What are your plans for the future?"

"I used to prefer watching some entertainment programs, but later I found that I also had a lot of ideas, so I entered the entertainment industry and started working behind the scenes. In the future, I will definitely continue to do what I like."

Listening to Zhang Ping'an's words, Taeyeon's family felt that he would continue to work in the same way in the future. But Taeyeon knows very well that Zhang Pingan will not stay in the entertainment industry for long. He has mentioned this issue more than once. In the future, what he wants is to live a free life and see the world.

"It's good. I hope you will take more care of Taeyeon in the future."

Zhang Ping'an said with a smile: "I hope she will take more care of me. Now Taeyeon is a very difficult guest to invite. When I make programs in the future, I hope she can participate more and increase the ratings of my programs."

Taeyeon immediately quit. She looked over Zhang Ping'an and said, "Come on, why is it so difficult to invite me? Have you ever sent me an invitation?"

Zhang Ping'an said with a smile: "I'll send it, will you pick it up? "I Live Alone"."

Taeyeon rolled her eyes after hearing this show, knowing that she would not be able to attend this show.
