1978 Synthetic Writers

Chapter 31 Earth-shattering
No. 77, North Third Ring Road, Beijing.

In the midst of the vast fields of crops, there are several famous universities in Beijing and even in China, as well as the Beijing Film Studio, one of the three major film bases in China.

In 1973, Beijing Film Studio moved here. This was the third site of Beijing Film Studio and also the place that everyone is most familiar with.

"Farewell My Concubine", "Camel Xiangzi" and "A Dream of Red Mansions" were all filmed and produced here. More than ten years later, a man named Wang Baoqiang would be working here.

Zhu Lin stood at the gate marked by the statues of workers, peasants and soldiers and said, "Comrade, I'm here for an audition."

"Please show your work ID."

"I don't have a work permit. I'm a student at the Medical College. Director Zhang Zheng asked me to audition."

"Zhang Zheng? Zhang Zheng has to show his work ID even when he comes."

The guard continued to eat some melon seeds.

It is extremely difficult to enter the gate of Beijing Film Studio at this time. Director C and writer L have both had fierce conflicts with the guards because they refused to show their IDs.

"Comrade, can you help me make a phone call and report it?"

"."

Zhu Lin is just silly when facing strangers.

Seeing that the guard ignored her, she didn't know what to do. She even thought about giving up and going back to school.

Just then, Jiang Xian came over.

"Comrade security guard, please inform Shi Wenxin from the Literature Department that Jiang Xian is looking for us."

The guy skillfully handed over two cigarettes, then smiled at Zhu Lin and said, "Just follow me in later."

"Jiang Xian?"

The moment she saw him, Zhu Lin felt an inexplicable surge of joy in her heart.

In particular, she had never told him about the audition, but Jiang Xian showed up in time when she needed help the most, which made her feel inexplicably surprised.

"Comrade, please wait a moment." The guard's attitude changed 180 degrees and he immediately called the Department of Literature.

Jiang Xian looked at Zhu Lin.

"Which play are you trying out for?"

""seek""

"What? Say it again, I didn't hear you clearly."

“Search, search, search”

"hey-hey."

Zhu Lin reacted and couldn't help feeling embarrassed and annoyed. She pursed her lips and glared at Jiang Xian with her almond-shaped eyes.

This glare, with bright eyes of favor and a charming look.

Jiang Xian was stunned for a moment before he came to his senses.

"What movie is .Mi?"

"It's adapted from a novel called 'Heroes of Tongbai', which is about the War of Liberation." Zhu Lin had obviously done her homework.

"Oh." Jiang Xian slapped his forehead, "Xiaohua!"

This movie was very famous in those days. Tang Guoqiang, Chen Chong, Liu Xiaoqing, and Ge You's father Ge Cunzhuang starred in it. Once it was released, the streets were packed with people. It also made Chen Chong and Liu Xiaoqing famous.

As for the name of the movie, it was only after consulting Acheng's father, the famous film critic Zhong Dianwei, that "Mi" was changed to "Xiaohua".

No wonder Zhang Zheng was willing to ask Zhu Lin, a medical student, to audition.

Chen Chong was a student at the Foreign Languages ​​College at the time. After being selected by Zhang Zheng, she played the role of the leading female role.

As for Liu Xiaoqing, the crew ignored her at the time. At most, they said a few polite words to her, and no script was given to this young girl. However, without saying a word, she took a green train to the Huangshan filming location in Anhui Province and insisted on participating in the filming.

She was given few parts and had to play two roles. In the end, she shocked audiences across the country with a scene where she climbed the stone steps on her knees.

"Teacher Jiang!" Shi Wenxin rushed over, "Who is this?"

"My friend, come to audition for a play directed by Zhang Zheng."

"Try the Mi one, right? It's really beautiful."

Shi Wenxin glanced at Zhu Lin, then at Jiang Xian, and felt that there was something fishy going on between the two of them. "It's still early, I'll take you for a quick walk."

The Beijing Film Studio is very large. The most eye-catching building is the red and white main building, which has three and a half floors. The security department is on the second floor, and the famous "freeloader king" Li Chunping was born there.

A year ago, Li Chunping was just an ordinary security officer at the Beijing Film Studio. After he was expelled for fighting, a Hollywood actress in her sixties who was wealthy enough to rival a country found him and said that she was guided by God and that Li Chunping was the "last lover" God had given her.

The two then went abroad together. The rich woman died of illness ten years later. Li Chunping inherited her billions of assets and returned to China, becoming the first person in China to drive a Rolls-Royce.

This is not God's gift at all.

This is God chasing after him to feed him soft rice, and he was afraid that the soft rice was not soft enough, so he chopped it up and fed it to this guy's mouth.

After parting with Zhu Lin, Jiang Xian was taken to a meeting room.

Many people were already seated. Shi Wenxin introduced him first, and Jiang Xian was immediately surrounded by everyone's admiring gazes.

"Teacher Jiang, this is Mr. Guan Xuezeng, the master of qinshu in our Chinese Folk Songs Association." Shi Wenxin introduced enthusiastically.

When Jiang Xian heard this, he hurriedly shook hands with the old man in front of him.

Guan Xuezeng was the former chairman of the Chinese Folk Art Association, and Jiang Kun had to call him "Master" whenever he met him.

He also has a granddaughter, who later became an Internet celebrity with the song "Ni Cha Cha". Her name is Guan Xiaotong.

Jiang Xian didn't expect that just to make a radio drama, the Beijing Film Studio would even invite this person.

He sat down next to the old man.

Shi Wenxin hurriedly said, "Don't hesitate, if you have any questions, ask Teacher Jiang."

Someone immediately pushed over a stack of manuscripts.

"Teacher Jiang, I don't quite understand this."

"Let me take a look."

Jiang Xian answered them one by one based on his own understanding.

"Teacher Jiang, does the old chess master who asked for peace at the end look like a bad guy?"

The old chess king mentioned here is the last game in which Wang Yisheng played against nine opponents alone.

The old chess king played until the end, and was helped into the chess field by others to seek a draw with Wang Yisheng. The original text described it like this:

[Young man, I am physically disabled and cannot go to the battlefield myself. I have no choice but to ask someone to teach me chess. You are so young, but you have such a good chess skill. I have seen that you have combined the Dao and Zen into one, and you are very smart. You have the foresight to strike first and then to control the enemy. You can use dragons to control water and have the spirit of yin and yang. The Confucian generals of ancient and modern times are no more than this. I am fortunate to take over from you. I have a lot of feelings. After all, the Chinese chess skill is not declining. I would like to be friends with you regardless of age. I have played this game here for fun. I wonder if you are willing to call it a draw and give me some face?]
Most interpretations believe that the old chess king was hypocritical. He knew he had lost and was embarrassed, so he came out to negotiate a draw in a very loud manner.

Jiang Xian recalled the day when he played chess with Zang Guozhu in the restaurant. Amid the waiter's urging, Zang Guozhu asked him: Let's call it a draw?

Zang Guozhu was a famous player and knew he would win the game, so he would disrupt the situation. However, he was still willing to negotiate peace.

Think about it again in the novel. The old chess king could have claimed that he was not feeling well and gave up the game, which would have been much more credible than asking for a draw in person.

Therefore, Jiang Xian holds another view: "Chess has been passed down for a long time. When masters compete, it often ends in a draw, and it is undecided, which is disappointing. But why is chess still so popular? This is related to our national culture. Chinese people advocate the doctrine of the mean and value peace. If you regard the old chess king's request for a draw as hypocritical, then you underestimate the chess players and our Chinese people. The horse moves in the sun, the elephant moves in the field, and a single chariot cannot defeat a scholar and an elephant. The chess pieces are knocked down and the lamp flowers fall. At the end of the chess game, you should hold a glass of wine and make friends. Winning or losing is not important."

"it is good!"

Guan Xuezeng stood up suddenly.

His face was filled with shock and excitement, and he clapped his hands and said, "This is so insightful and brilliant!"

A small game of chess, a small article.

However, the national spirit and cultural heritage are integrated into it as seamlessly as an antelope hanging its horns.

This pattern, this realm.

Unique ingenuity, the sound shakes the forest!
