Chapter 585 The Final Chapter of the Group Wedding
In the past, many martial arts practitioners did not live a wealthy life, so there was a saying of doing martial arts.
Under Beijing's overpasses, there is never a shortage of showmen.
One of the main incomes of many wrestling venues is to make money from wrestling performances to support a group of apprentices.
A tent was used to encircle a place, and wrestlers were wrestling in it. There were people nearby who were helping to warm up the place. They made bursts of cheers from time to time to attract passing tourists to buy tickets and go in to watch.
There is another source of income, which is rewards. Many wealthy people go to watch a wrestling match. If their favorite person wins, they will throw a few oceans casually as a reward.
In the early days, when the Qing Dynasty was still around, many Eight Banners disciples raised a group of wrestlers and practiced wrestling themselves.
Back then, Tong Mei's father was one of the Eight Banners disciples who loved wrestling. When his family was wealthy, he also raised a group of wrestlers.
The performances of Zhao Shengli and others can still be very bluffing in the eyes of the uninitiated. They punched vigorously, sometimes falling down, and sometimes jumping up from the ground.
Everyone in the audience also enjoyed watching it very much.
After Zhao Shengli's performance ended, Zhang Yan came on stage again to say a few words and then continued the performance.
There were more than ten or twenty programs in total, and the timeline slowly stretched to twelve o'clock.
Zhang Yan took to the stage again.
"Dear leaders, distinguished guests, relatives and friends, the talent show of the bride and groom has come to an end. I know that everyone has not had enough of it.
However, there is no other way, the time has already reached twelve o'clock, and our chefs from the Metallurgical General Hospital have prepared exquisite dishes for everyone, please taste it."
Following Zhang Yan's words, the kitchen helper in the cafeteria began to serve the dishes.
Because there were too many people today, Ji Kaiwen temporarily transferred many people from the logistics service department to help the kitchen serve food.
The first thing served were six small cold dishes.
"The six cold dishes served first imply that the future work and life of the bride and groom will go smoothly.
After all, there is an old saying, called Liuliu Dashun!" After the cold dishes were served, Zhang Yan said to everyone with a smile.
Then, there were nine more hot dishes.
Because they were all prepared in advance, the dishes were served very quickly. Without much effort, more than half of the tables were already served with nine hot dishes.
"Some people may wonder why there are only nine dishes. Is there one missing?
I want to tell everyone that there are nine hot dishes, which means that the bride and groom will live a long life!"
Then, another soup was served!
"This is a mixed soup, which means that the life of the bride and groom is perfect!
Okay, the dishes have been served. Leaders, guests, relatives and friends, please enjoy the delicious food!" After Zhang Yan finished speaking, he walked off the stage to a round of applause.
Went to a private room on the second floor.
With so many tables, there is definitely not enough space to sit on the first floor, and there are also many tables on the second floor.
"Okay! Director Zhang did a great job hosting today!" Director Yang said with a smile as soon as Zhang Yan entered the room.
"Yes! Dean Zhang did a great job as the officiant, and those children will remember it for a lifetime!"
"It should be said that Professor Zhao and the others have met a good master!" Director Liu said with a smile.
Zhao Shengli is now an associate professor at Beijing University of Chinese Medicine.
According to the agreement reached between Zhang Yan and Beijing University of Chinese Medicine, general doctors will serve as lecturers, deputy directors will serve as associate professors, and directors will serve as full professors.
Don't you disagree? Zhang Yan directly stated that next year, or the year after next at the latest, all of his apprentices who serve as deputy directors will go to the branches below to serve as deans or vice deans.
At that time, only a small number of people will be left at Beijing University of Chinese Medicine to continue with the task of giving lectures.
Others take the title of hospital lecturer or professor and go to lower cities to serve as deans, vice deans, and department directors.
This is the career path Zhang Yan planned for them early on.
Zhang Yan can only do this. Once he takes up a position below, their future development depends entirely on them.
Whether it is a dragon or an insect, it all depends on your own destiny.
Of course, the houses and jobs at the Metallurgical General Hospital will still be reserved for them. Once they can no longer survive there, they can come back.
However, once he comes back, he can only serve as a chief physician, and the position of department director and deputy director will definitely be gone. This is the last thing Zhang Yan can do for them.
"Everyone is so complimentary, I feel a little overwhelmed!" Zhang Yan said modestly.
"Where's Xiao Tong? I saw him just now, why didn't he come over?" Lao Liangtou looked at Zhang Yan and asked.
"Tong Mei is home! She went back just after she finished speaking!" Zhang Yan explained with a smile.
"You called people over, how could you leave without eating?" Lao Liangtou complained.
"The children at home are still young. As you know, when the second and third oldest children in my family are at their most ugly, it is a bit difficult for my mother and my father to take care of three children!" Zhang Yan quickly explained.
"Okay! You have married a good wife!" Lao Liangtou said with emotion.
"Good luck! I fell in love with her the first time I saw her. At that time, I thought, if I want to make a decision on this daughter-in-law, I have to take her home!" Zhang Yan laughed.
"Haha..." Everyone laughed in a dignified manner.
Zhang Yan raised his glass and said, "I'd like to toast everyone!
First of all, on behalf of my apprentices and students and the staff of our hospital, thank you all for coming!"
"Dean Zhang is so polite. Many of them are my students! It's right for those of us who are teachers to attend the students' weddings.
I would also like to thank Dean Zhang for organizing an unforgettable wedding for them!" Li Guangjun said with a smile.
"Yes! We are the natal families of several of the brides. On behalf of the natal families, we would like to thank Dean Zhang for organizing such a grand wedding!" Director Yang also said.
"Okay, let's not thank anyone else. Let's raise a toast together and wish the children happiness!" Zhang Yan said with a smile.
Today's collective wedding was a success. Everyone was very happy and in high spirits, so naturally we couldn't stop drinking the wine.
In the meantime, Zhang Yan also went out to visit a few places, toasting reporters from newspapers and magazines as well as photographers from TV stations.
Went to the first floor again and toasted to the parents and relatives of the bride and groom who were here today.
There were too many people, and Zhang Yan couldn't greet everyone, so he could only greet one table at a time. In this way, all the parents who were parents were moved.
They all said that their children had met a good master/teacher/leader.
He even made a strong request and responded to Zhang Yan.
Zhang Yan was not polite to everyone, and accepted everyone's reply, which was equivalent to drinking two drinks at the same table.
Even with Zhang Yan's drinking capacity, he was still a little drunk after serving the whole table.
After the bride and groom came to toast, Zhang Yan was completely drunk and barely controlled himself from making a fool of himself at the wine table, but he sat there and did not dare to move.
Chapter completed!
