1980 My Entertainment Era

Chapter 175 I thought you weren't cold, but it turns out you're just slow to react
The Spring Festival Gala ended after midnight. Xia Tian wished everyone a Happy New Year and hurried home to eat dumplings.

By the third day of the first lunar month, Xia Tian indeed saw the evaluation of the Spring Festival Gala in the newspaper.

Not to mention all the praises, there were really loud drums and gongs, huge crowds of people, colorful flags waving, it was everywhere!

There are all kinds of praises, and they are all in different ways!
For example, when praising the songs, everyone from Li Guyi to Xia Tian was praised.

Particular emphasis was placed on praising Li Guyi's "Unforgettable Tonight", Zhang Minmin's "My Chinese Heart", Jiang Dawei's "Where the Peach Blossoms Bloom", Xia Tian's "Wujiaopo 1984" and the song "Huangmei Opera".

Well, there were also some people who emphasized on praising Xia Tian and Ma Lan’s duet of “Husband and Wife Return Home Together”, saying that he sang the Huangmei Opera quite well!
Xia Tian: I know what you are planning!
Some people are so "enthusiastic" that they almost say directly that the handsome man and beautiful woman are a perfect match!
Milan is holding a newspaper with a playful look on his face.
Xia Tian quickly said, "Don't let your imagination run wild! Audiences nowadays are like this. When they see something good, they want it. They can't tell the difference between the role and the actor!"

Milan rolled her eyes at him and said, "You're just wishful thinking! Ma Lan is one of the Five Golden Flowers of Huangmei Opera. She's busy performing every day, so how could she have time to care about you!"

"If you can really catch her, I can also get closer to Huangmei Opera Golden Flower~" Milan looked fascinated.

Xia Tian: Go away!

He always says this girl is good, that girl is good too. Xia Tian always feels that Milan is more of a hooligan than himself!
But soon Milan was attracted by critical articles in newspapers.

"This old man's words are really rude. What do you mean by destroying the essence of the nation? He wasn't killed in the past ten years, right? Why didn't you dare to say anything then?!"

"Huangmei Opera is too frivolous! They talk about morality, but they are full of thieves and prostitutes. Everything they see is frivolous!"

"This is even more disgusting. They say Chen Xiaoer and his friend's "Eating Noodles" is funny for the sake of being funny and has no connotation. Why didn't they talk about the connotation when he and his wife were making love in bed?!"

Milan is really cruel when he curses!
Especially when he saw criticism of Xia Tian, ​​his fighting spirit soared.

But it’s okay if people from the opera and literary and art circles curse at you.

After all, colleagues are enemies. The Spring Festival Gala is so popular, and you don’t invite them, wouldn’t that be destroying their jobs?

Wouldn’t that make you angry to death?
However, Xia Tian also saw some content that was too radical, and we cannot just sit there and do nothing about it.

We cannot hand over the public opinion front to others.

So I started contributing to newspapers in the summer!
Liu Chunlai: I know that every time there is a big event, there will be a large number of manuscripts coming to Teacher Jinghongke. Hurry up! I can’t wait!
On the fifth day of the Chinese New Year, the headline article on page two of the Yanjing Evening News was titled "Give Happiness Back to the People". The author was Jing Hongke: ...It is very important to give happiness back to the people.

...In fact, comedy can directly judge the level of civilization of a society. All imprisoned societies and rigid lives do not allow the existence of comedy. Therefore, returning the power of joy to the people is a very timely signal.

When all the evildoers saw that Jinghongke had come to the fore again, they immediately became excited.

There are former defeated generals who are planning to avenge their past humiliation; there are newcomers who have always wanted to make a comeback but never got the chance and are planning to make a splash; there are people in the folk art world who are directly related to this incident and their ancestral rules cannot be changed; and there are also people who want to become famous by arguing with Jing Hongke...

Don’t be surprised, there are smart people in every era, and many people have already figured it out - black and red are also red!
Although you can't criticize them in the newspapers, but if you criticize them a few more times, you will become familiar with them, right? You can quickly publish articles and make comments in major newspapers and magazines.

Then you become a cultural person and a critic!
Declare war on the vulgar Jinghong guest!
Declare war on the summer that desecrates the quintessence of our national culture!
Declare war on the bad singers who pollute Huangmei Opera!
Start the war~
I have many friends in summer, so I am not fighting alone.

There were singers from the song and dance troupe, actors, directors, classmates and teachers from the school...even Chen Xiaoer came out to fight.

They were having a lot of fun fighting!

An article in the summer titled "Give Happiness Back to the People" immediately sparked a discussion.

Then Fang Xiaoyan naturally wanted to seize the opportunity and conduct an interview.

Fang Xiaoyan: "Regarding the criticism you received from many veteran artists in the folk art world, do you have anything to say?"

Xia Tian: "There's nothing much to say. Every time the Spring Festival Gala ends, there are always a group of people scolding me! Haha~"

Fang Xiaoyan: "What do you think of comedy?"

"Comedy first has to make people laugh. If you can't do that, then talking about the connotation is just moving yourself."

Fang Xiaoyan: "Some people are very dissatisfied with you for growing your hair long and singing in a female voice, saying that you are giving the wrong guidance to young people."

"I dare not discuss guidance. How can I be qualified? As for growing long hair, it is for a role. The wig is too fake after all, so I grew long hair. It is too uncomfortable to have long hair. I will cut it off after the performance."

"As for the cross-dressing female voice, they have to find a male Peking Opera actor. It just so happens that it's all in the newspapers, so we can discuss it~"

Xia Tian directly led them to sing along with the Peking Opera!
Fang Xiaoyan understood Xia Tian's thoughts very well, so she asked, "You grew your hair long just for a role? It must have taken a long time! What role is so important?!"

Xia Tian smiled: Well, it’s a pleasure to work with you!
"I have had long hair for almost two years. As for the role, I cannot reveal it yet. But I can tell you that it is a role in the TV series Journey to the West! The crew of Journey to the West is now working tirelessly to film all over the country. I hope everyone can pay more attention~"

Well, take this opportunity to promote it! Kill two birds with one stone~
In fact, on the eighth day of the first lunar month, the crew of "Dream of Red Mansions" had already set off for Zhejiang Province to film "Prologue to Red Mansions".

It is the story of Zhen Shiyin sponsoring the poor Jia Yucun to take the imperial examination, betrothing his maid to him, and then Zhen Yinglian being abducted.

A folk street market from the Ming and Qing Dynasties was specially built there!

But I was too lazy to go to the theater in the first month of the year, so I didn’t go—and there weren’t any major actors.

But he also made a contribution. He used Li Heizi's relationship in Hong Kong to buy a second-hand Panasonic M9 camera with a telephoto lens for HK$9000.

We even gave them equipment such as slide trolleys and elevators that were customized on behalf of the master craftsmen at Shougang.

Originally this was for Director Yang's Journey to the West crew, so Director Yang could only wait, since she didn't know anyway~
While the Red Mansion was being trial-filmed, in the summer I had a passionate debate on the newspaper. On February 2, the inaugural issue of Southern Weekend came out.

Its first issue reprinted Xia Tian's "Give Happiness Back to the People", which clearly stated that perming hair, listening to pop songs, and watching naked sculptures are not poisoned by bourgeois ideology. The scale and intensity of that were even more ruthless than Xia Tian's!
Who wouldn’t say anything after reading this: The editor-in-chief of Southern Weekend is a ruthless person!

The Southern system at this time is different from the one that will be possessed later...

They brought this discussion to a climax!
It immediately sparked discussions in the north and south, and the sales of various newspapers surged!
Print media industry: Thank you Mr. Jinghongke, thank you all the commentators and people in the literary and art circles. Thanks to you, the performance at the beginning of this year is very good~
Xia Tian: Am I a pioneer?!
However, there was another thing in the newspapers that was even more popular than the "people's right to happiness" issue.

That’s the chief engineer’s southern tour!

On the 16th, he visited the Shanghai Ten Years of Science and Technology Achievements Exhibition and gave the instruction that "computer popularization should start from children."

Now this sentence may seem like just one of many instructions, nothing surprising.

But from the perspective of later generations, it was truly far-sighted.

After this statement was made, thousands of young people entered the computer world, laying the foundation for the Internet era...

A word from a great man often marks the beginning of an era.

Later this picture was included in the textbook.

The 13-year-old boy who demonstrated his programming app to the chief engineer later achieved great success and became a professor at Tsinghua University.

……

Seeing that the first month of the lunar year is almost over, Xia Tian is too lazy to continue arguing with people in the newspaper, mainly because he has already arguing with six or seven people and they are avoiding him afterwards and no one mentions him in the articles anymore.

Hang up the white flag and avoid fighting.

There is nothing you can do about it, after all, it is a fight in the newspaper. If the other party does not accept the challenge, you can't do anything about it, and you can't go to their door, that would be bad~
Besides, I have to help with the work of the "A Dream of Red Mansions" crew.

The courses in school are very easy, and I am not very interested in the acting courses in the summer, as I always feel they are too simple. However, the directing class is very interesting.

But there are fewer courses.

He has privileges in school, and the teachers all accept this and don't care about anything else as long as he gets good grades.

So when Zang Jinsheng, Lin Fangbing and others were worrying about various homework and skits, he still had time to do other things.

My friends are living well recently. I took Milan and the others to the Tianfu Restaurant opened by Fang Yan and Ye Jing several times in the summer and they are doing very good business.

After just two or three times, neither of them wanted money, and they looked like "If you give me money you are looking down on me, and I am going to be angry with you."

I stopped going there in the summer because it was too hard to wipe off and I had to eat it for nothing.

But he couldn't bear to eat it for free, but there were many people who could bear to eat it for free!
There must be two or three tables of free food every day!

Thanks to the fact that there are fewer people doing business these days, the restaurant’s business is good, otherwise, it would probably go bankrupt within two months!
Even if I still do this now, I don't think the prospects for summer are very good. Let's wait and see.

Not to mention Milan, his enthusiasm for work is not as good as going to the market to buy vegetables!

I go to work every day and look forward to getting off work, then get tired of summer.

Although my combat power is less than 5, I am still happy with it. At least I am getting some tonic~
Milan: My skin is getting whiter and smoother.
Glasses is busy with his studies, and he is very hardworking! He really studies from dawn to dusk.

If his friends hadn't taken him out to eat and play every week, they would have worried that he would become stupid.

In his words: There is too much knowledge, so much to learn, and too little time, too little!
Xiaodong is in good condition now. Although he works in a second-hand goods store, there is no other problem except that he is far away from home.

And now he is basically the one running the "glasses repair shop". There are three people repairing home appliances, and seven or eight people collecting home appliances and soliciting business!
On the surface, he is an office worker, earning more than 40 yuan a month, but in fact, he is a small boss!
Moreover, Xiaodong is very organized in his work. His public and private work are well arranged, and the two can even work together - some scrapped home appliances at the second-hand goods station can be bought back with a little extra money, and then the parts can be disassembled and reassembled.
Finally, it’s Dachun!
Dachun was living a good life. He earned 20 yuan a month. He gave yuan to his family and ate the rest himself!
Really ate them all!
Just eat two things - this and that!

That guy was finally let go.

Chun Ma was so angry!

It is said that he is the reincarnation of a starving ghost.

If I hadn't saved half of my salary for him, he would have no hope of getting married in the future.

Just yesterday, he applied to his mother!
Dachun: "Mom, give me ten dollars so I can buy a pair of cotton pants?"

Chun Ma: "Oh~ I can give you 5 cents at most."

Dachun: "What can 5 cents do?"

Chun Ma: "Buy some cold medicine for 5 cents!"

Dachun: "When it gets cold, even dogs know to shed their fur. So what's wrong with me buying a pair of cotton pants?"

Chun's mother rolled her eyes and said, "Winter will be over in two weeks, and you're thinking of buying cotton pants now? I thought you weren't cold!"

Dachun retreats~
Afterwards, he said to Xia Tian with emotion: "Today's strong wind has made me realize it. It doesn't matter if I don't have love, but I absolutely cannot live without cotton pants!"

Xia Tian: I thought you didn’t wear cotton pants because you didn’t feel cold like me. It turns out you are slow to react! Two months?!
