When Tan Zhenhua and McCormick finished their conversation and returned to the meeting, the atmosphere in the meeting had reached a climax.

As for the reason, this group of over-energy guys have spontaneously turned the salon club gathering scene that discusses economic issues into a big dance floor.

Well, maybe this is what the American campus should look like.

However, it is still 1982, so the hip-hop dance that will be popular in the U.S. and spread to the entire Blue Star has not yet begun to become popular. It is still a niche dance where black people enjoy themselves in their own communities, and here, a bunch of pride Traditional ballroom dancing is performed for the elite guys in the future.

Hearing the music coming from the tape recorder, Tan Zhenhua laughed, slow four. This is exactly the melody he was familiar with on the carefree college campus in his previous life. How many years have he not skipped such a dance? It's been nearly thirty years, right? He thought, an impulse of nostalgia surged uncontrollably in his heart.

Then he saw that Vivian had just politely declined the invitation of a white man, but his eyes floated towards him who had just walked into the door.

Is she waiting for herself?

Tan Zhenhua walked over, stroked her left chest with her right hand, leaning slightly and said, "My Queen, can you dance with your loyal courtier with a face?"

Vivienne pursed her lips and knelt down slightly to him: "Of course, my knight, that's my honor."

Tan Zhenhua held Vivian’s small hand again, and at the same time, his other hand naturally wrapped her slender waist, and then, a beautiful spin took Vivian away from the place and moved it homeopathically. The center of the room.

Vivienne was a little surprised at first, and then she giggled and began to spin with Tan Zhenhua's movements. The two of them adopted the classic butterfly blues dance steps very tacitly, so even if they cooperated for the first time, they actually danced. There is no jerky appearance.

After a dance, the rhythm of the music was constantly changed to a fast three, and the two did not stop at all, and then revolved after a short pause.

The dance steps of the fast three are actually a simplified version of the Vienna waltz. The pace is relatively fast, and the requirements for dancers are higher than those of slow three or four slow dance steps. Under the leadership of Tan Zhenhua, Vivian quickly The left and right rotating movements alternately danced around the dance floor. She was wearing a short skirt today. Between the flying skirts, the two long white legs set off her graceful figure.

In addition, Xiao Tan Tan really made a splash in front of everyone tonight, so the pair immediately attracted the attention of the audience, and before the music stopped and everyone left the venue, there was a burst of enthusiasm. The applause was given to the brightest rookie star in the audience today.

The two nodded politely to the crowd, then left the scene and found a quiet corner to chat.

The intense exercise made Vivienne's face blush. She looked at Tan Zhenhua excitedly and said, "Eric, you surprised me so much. I really didn't expect your dance to dance so well. I thought……"

"Do you think Huaxia is still a desert?" Tan Zhenhua asked half jokingly and half earnestly.

Vivienne felt a little uneasy, and she quickly explained: "No, Eric, I didn't mean that."

Tan Zhenhua smiled and said: "Vivian, in fact, many statements about China in the Western world are extremely wrong. They think that the people of China are closed, backward, even feudal and ignorant. That is because they don’t understand the country of China at all. Knowing Chinese people, or they think they are the rulers of this world, so they don’t even bother to know Chinese people, just like the Matthew Mellon just now."

Vivienne pouted and said: "Okay Eric, even if you are right, you have already given a speech today. I have to admit that your speech just now was very wonderful, but you can only eat in one night. Is a dinner right? So you still tell me where did you learn your dance steps? I am curious about this now."

Tan Zhenhua laughed and said: "Okay Vivienne, but my answer may disappoint you very much. In fact, my dance moves are all from my father, you must know that among their generation, especially Among those of their generation who have gone to college, ballroom dancing is very, very popular."

Vivian said, "Really? Then I think your father must be a very charming man."

Tan Zhenhua's mind suddenly flashed past the half-bald, oily brain door of his father Tan Ming, and then nodded with certainty: "Yes, Vivienne, you are right, he is indeed a Very, very charming man, personable, more flavorful as he gets older, he is a model of a mature man."

"Ahee, Ahee."

Thousands of miles away, under the dim light, a middle-aged half-bald man who was holding an electric soldering iron in his hand and soldering electronic components on a circuit board suddenly couldn't help but sneezed twice.

He raised his head questioningly, looked around, and muttered: "Isn't this stinky guy laying me behind?" Then he focused his attention on the circuit board in front of him.

"Really, I really want to have a chance to meet." Vivian sighed.

"I think there will be this chance, then Vivienne, you dance very well, can you tell me who I learned from?"

"I learned it from my grandma, I want to tell you Eric, my grandma, that is the most elegant old lady I have ever seen, really, don't lie to you."

"Of course I believe it, and I am very sure of it."

"Eric, you are not perfunctory me, you have never seen her, how can you be sure?"

"Vivienne, not only do I know that your grandma is an elegant lady, but I also know that your grandpa must also be an elegant man, and your Chinese name must be taken by your grandpa and grandma. Yes, am I right?"

"...How is it possible? Eric, have you investigated me?" Vivienne's eyes were suddenly full of doubt and alert.

Tan Zhenhua did not answer her question, but suddenly turned his hands back to the back and made a gesture of raising his head to the sky, and then changed to Chinese and began to chant:

"Plucking weeds and weeds, we will also stop. When you go back, you can go back, and the year will never stop. The house is lavish at home, because of the 玁玁狁.

Plucking Wei, Wei is soft. Said to return, said to return, the heart is also worried. Worry is fierce, hungry and thirst. I am undecided, and I will be hired.

Plucking Wei, Wei just stopped. Said to return, said to return, and the year ended with the sun. Wang Shi is extravagant, and he is not open to it. Worry and guilty, I can't do it. "

...

After reciting the Xiaoya in the "Book of Songs", he said to Vivian: "Vivian, you should know that your Chinese name comes from "Xiaoya Plucking Wei" in the "Book of Songs", but you must know this A poem, and thinking of using the name of this poem as a name, several conditions must be met."

Vivienne asked, "It's just a name, and a few conditions must be met. The more you speak, the more mysterious you are. No, Eric, you must explain it clearly to me."

Tan Zhenhua said: "Of course there are several conditions that need to be met. The first one is the person who gave you this name. He or she must have a profound traditional cultural background. Otherwise, I am afraid I don’t even know this poem. , How can you cite it as your name?"

Vivienne tilted her head for a moment and replied: "This is some truth, but this reason is not sufficient. For example, why can't the person who gave me this name be my parents? After all, they also have this possibility and power?"

Tan Zhenhua asked back: "So Vivian, do you know what this song "Xiaoya Plucking" means?"

Vivienne suddenly said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, Eric, although I can speak a little Chinese, but words like "The Book of Songs" are too esoteric for me, so I know the origin of my Chinese name. , But can’t understand the meaning of this poem."

Tan Zhenhua nodded and said, "It's nothing. The time when the "Book of Songs" was written is too far away. It is so far away that the basic meaning and expression of many languages ​​have changed a lot. Therefore, those born on this shore of the ocean It’s normal that you can’t fully understand. So Vivienne, do you want to know what the poem from which your name comes from? And what I want to tell you is, my guess is from the meaning of this poem Coming."
