Return to Singapore 1995

In his previous life, salesmen had to attend various social events. Li Xiaofan sometimes had to invite important customers to KTV to sing and drink.

In his impression, some customers were not only difficult to deal with in terms of business, but also difficult to choose a girl in KTV. Social events in Shanghai usually start late, usually after 7 or 8 o'clock in the evening. After drinking a little wine, it is usually almost 10 o'clock. Sometimes, people drink so much that they even start to dislike the waiters in the private room. In this case, it will be late to go to KTV, and the beautiful girls in front will be picked up by those who arrive early. Some difficult customers let the mama send girls to him one by one for him to choose. He glanced at them one by one, round after round, round after round. In fact, it was still these girls, but he still couldn't make a choice, which made the mama annoyed and found an excuse to disappear.

At that time, Li Xiaofan would have a thousand idiots running through his mind: Oh, shit, isn't it just singing and drinking with you for two or three hours? It's not like picking a wife, is it necessary to do this?

After helping Li Xiaofan and Abin order the foreign wine set and the hostess, Ming went to an unknown box next door and said that there were a few friends there, so he went to say hello and toast a few glasses of wine, and he would come back soon.

After the girl in the white cheongsam sat down with Li Xiaofan, Li Xiaofan felt that she looked like a complete rookie.

The big-breasted girl that Abin ordered was called Lili, from the mainland, and she looked like a veteran. After sitting down, she clung to Abin tenderly, poured wine, fed him fruits, and helped him order songs, etc., busy all the time, and served Abin like a master and felt comfortable. Abin had never seen such a scene before, and his bones had long been so soft that he didn't know where he was!

And the girl in white next to Li Xiaofan sat down, looking at a loss and wooden, not knowing what to do.

"Are you new here?" Li Xiaofan asked curiously.

"Yes!" The girl in white nodded.

"What's your name?"

"Call me Tianyu!" The girl was also very honest. She didn't mention her stage name Xiaoyuer, but directly reported her real name. Li Xiaofan didn't know whether it was true or not. Anyway, everyone here was just acting according to the situation, and the name was just a symbol.

"Sir, you are also from the mainland, right? Judging from your accent, what's your name?" Tianyu asked back.

"Yes, yes! Call me Xiaofan. Come on, Tianyu, we met by chance, and we are also destined to meet. Let me toast you a glass!"

Li Xiaofan simply turned the tables, threw an ice cube into the glass in front of her, and poured her a glass of foreign wine.

At this time, Tianyu remembered her identity and hurriedly said, "I'm so sorry, I should serve you!"

"It doesn't matter, it's the same. Don't treat me as a guest tonight, treat me as an ordinary friend! Come on, cheers!"

"Thank you!"

Tianyu was also happy and drank the wine glass in one gulp.

Maybe he was not used to drinking this kind of foreign liquor, so he coughed several times after drinking it.

"Do you come here often?" Tianyu asked Li Xiaofan after drinking a few sips of mineral water.

"Haha, to be honest, this is the first time I have come to such a high-end nightclub in Singapore!"

Tianyu was surprised and said: "Really? It's my first time too!"

It was as if he had found a soulmate all of a sudden.

Tianyu continued: "Xiaofan, I saw you so young just now, and I don't think you look like someone who often comes to this kind of place!"

"Haha, your manager just introduced you as a new singer, how about singing a song for us?"

Tianyu was also straightforward: "Okay, then I'll dare to sing a song!"

She went up to the machine and personally ordered a song "Flowers in the Mist" sung by Na Ying at this year's Spring Festival Gala.

"Looking at flowers in the fog, looking at the moon in the water

You can distinguish this ever-changing world

The waves go and the clouds fly, the flowers bloom and fade

You can grasp this swaying and colorful season

Troubles are the most ruthless

Laughter and joy, is that intimacy?

Tenderness is not necessarily considerate

You know which sentence is true and which is false

Please lend me a pair of wise eyes

Let me see this chaos

Clearly, clearly, truly, truly

..."

Tianyu stunned Abin and Lili beside her as soon as she opened her mouth. Oh, it feels like she is not inferior to Na Ying's original singer!

Listening to her singing, Li Xiaofan can roughly feel that her singing skills are good, and because the lyrics are very appropriate, Tianyu's performance is more touching.

"Lend me a pair of wise eyes, let me see this chaos, clearly, truly, truly!"

"Wow, this girl, you sing really well!" When Tianyu sang to the ending, Mingge came back to the box and took the lead in applauding.

When Tang Jiaming came back to the private room, he brought in four or five middle-aged guests, probably all of whom were his friends. They were dressed gorgeously and looked like rich people. Tang Jiaming also had a beautiful "old lover" by his side.

"Come, let me introduce this to everyone. This is my friend from the mainland, Afan!" Tang Jiaming introduced Li Xiaofan and Abin to several friends.

After Li Xiaofan stood up and exchanged a few simple polite words with them, he and Tianyu moved to the corner at the edge, leaving the center C position to Brother Ming and his friends.

Soon, the manager Shirley brought a group of girls in and arranged a beautiful woman to accompany each of Brother Ming's new friends.

Brother Ming's language skills are extremely rich. When chatting and drinking with these friends, he spoke Fujian Minnan dialect, English, Cantonese, Hakka, and sometimes even some Malay. If you are in Singapore for the first time, you can't understand what they are talking about.

Even Li Xiaofan could only understand about 20%.

Li Xiaofan remembered that the International Adult Skills Assessment conducted by the International OECD before his rebirth said that Singaporeans' overall level of language and calculation ability was lower than the average of OECD countries. When this news came out, the whole of Singapore exclaimed! Singapore has gathered the world's top elites, and its education is world-renowned. How is it possible?

Singapore is a typical multicultural country. The official languages ​​it recognizes are English, Malay, Chinese and Tamil. According to statistics, there are more than 20 dialects in Singapore. It is said that because there are too many official languages ​​and too many dialects, they are not proficient in any language...

Originally, Li Xiaofan wanted to say goodbye and go back to the dormitory after Tang Jiaming came back, but now that several of his friends just came in to introduce themselves, it seemed impolite for him to leave immediately, so he simply played dice and drank with Tianyu in the corner.

"Tianyu, you sing well, why did you want to develop in Singapore?"

"Well, it's a long story. Singing and dancing have been my hobbies since I was a child. When I was in school, I was selected to go to the Children's Palace for training in singing and dancing. I won a prize in a singing competition in middle school, but I never thought that I would rely on this to make a living! Before I came to Singapore, I worked as a building manager in a department store in China..."

"Is it difficult to be a building manager?"

"It's okay. Anyway, I can support myself!"

After a few glasses of foreign wine, Tianyu's face was flushed and hot. Maybe he was talking about something sad. He suddenly picked up the foreign wine in front of him and drank it all.
