Chapter 332: Shuigong Jiang, the bow and the mysterious string

Zhongguancun.

Zhu's mother has been working for so many years and has long been a cadre. She had nothing to do, so she left work early today and was blocked by an acquaintance.

"Are you off work?"

"Well, what's the matter?"

"it's okay no problem."

The other party smiled and waved his hands, then asked a question that he had been holding back for a day, "Recently, there is a movie called Shaolin Temple, and the actress in it is called...

"Bai Wuxia!"

The colleague who was pretending to clean the flower pots but eavesdropping couldn't help it and turned around to remind him.

"Oh, yes, Bai Wuxia, is this your Zhu Lin?"

Zhu's mother smiled and said, "She has been working at the Beijing Film Studio since early in the morning. I don't know what she is shooting every day. I just heard about this in the past few days."

Chinese people like the doctrine of the mean. Although what Zhu's mother said was vague, the meaning was very clear.

It’s my Zhu Lin!

"Hey, is it really your Zhu Lin?"

Another eavesdropper spoke up, "I knew this girl was meant to be an actress since she was little."

"That's right. It's all because of the trip to the countryside. The child has been delayed."

"It's not good."

They praised Zhu's mother with all kinds of flattery, which made her very happy. However, she was a rather reserved person, and even when she wanted to laugh she held it back, squinting her eyes slightly, until they became a straight line.

"Don't mind if I tell you this, but my family has always wanted to watch Shaolin Temple, but we couldn't get any tickets. Can you ask Linlin to get me some?"

"Yeah, this is really ugly."

Mother Zhu kept an apologetic smile and said, "To be honest, my family has never seen this movie, and it was impossible for Zhu Lin to get tickets."

"Oh, is that so."

The other party retreated when they saw the difficulty.

Zhu's mother, with a wonderful and proud mood, rode her bike out of the office, humming a song.

"Shaolin, there are so many heroes in Shaolin who come to admire you."

"Shaolin, Shaolin has so many miraculous stories telling about you."

"."

In recent days, Zhu's mother has always had a vague worry in her heart. She feels that with Jiang Xian's current status, it is very likely that there will be inequality in the marriage, leading to a breakdown in the relationship between him and her daughter.

Although Jiang Xian has always been a well-behaved child and has been very caring towards Zhu Lin.

But the worry in Zhu's mother's heart could never be eliminated.

There were days when she even dreamed about her daughter being wronged, but her family dared not say anything to Jiang Xian. After Zhu's mother woke up in anger, she slapped Zhu's father who was sleeping soundly and angrily scolded him for being useless.

Until these days, "Shaolin Temple" was finally broadcast in theaters.

Zhu Lin, who just won the Hundred Flowers Award for Best Actress, has once again entered the public eye for her role as Bai Wuxia.

Of course Zhu's mother watched the movie "Shaolin Temple". Not only her, but the whole family watched it.

Those were the tickets that Zhu Lin had worked so hard to get, so of course she couldn't give them to anyone else.

Bai Wuxia's performance in the movie simply amazed Zhu's mother.

Those bright almond eyes, that pure laughter, that crystal-like jade face, that unique beauty and temperament
Is this really the same person as my silly girl?

More importantly, with the popularity of "Shaolin Temple", more and more people began to discuss the character of Bai Wuxia.

You know, in another time and space, Ding Lan, the actress who played the shepherdess Bai Wuxia in "Shaolin Temple", quickly became famous after the film was released and became the dream lover in the hearts of countless people at that time.

Because the shepherdess Bai Wuxia gave the audience at that time a stunning impression that broke the traditional definition.

The stunning impression she left on the audience at that time was overwhelming. Every smile, every move and gesture of Bai Wuxia in the film was captivating.

Audiences are used to beauties on the screen, who are always quiet, elegant, and even fragile, but Bai Wuxia completely gives them an experience of beauty that subverts the concept.

Zhu Lin's interpretation of Bai Wuxia is in no way inferior to Ding Lan. She stands there with a shepherd's whip in her hand, looking lively, innocent, beautiful and skilled.

At the end of the film, when Jueyuan rejected Bai Wuxia's feelings and chose to become a monk, many viewers felt regretful.

At that moment, the cinema was extremely silent. Everyone was feeling sad, and all they could think about was the song "Shepherdess" sung by the shepherdess Bai Wuxia.

"Don't say that girls are delicate, they are flawless and exquisite. Sixteen years have passed since winter and spring, and the yellow flowers are still young."

It was precisely because of Zhu Lin's performance on the screen that Zhu's mother's worries of these days disappeared.

You Jiang Xian are excellent.

My daughter is bad?

There was more news from the TV station.

It is said that after someone from Beijing TV saw "Long Live Understanding" being broadcast on Jilin TV, they immediately sent someone to Changchun to transcribe the report, and then broadcast "Long Live Understanding" three times in a row on Beijing TV.

The leaders of the radio and television department also watched the TV recording of "Long Live Understanding".

After watching it, I immediately decided to get the videotape from Beijing TV. It was first broadcast on CCTV on November 11 and was broadcast three times in a row.

If the response is good enough, it will most likely be broadcast on more than 20 provincial and municipal TV stations across the country in the future.

After hearing this, Zhu Lin was stunned.

"Then you have a great harvest in both movies and TV?"

It is exactly as Zhu Lin said.

Nowadays, the hottest film in major theaters is "Shaolin Temple" written by Jiang Xian.

And if the video recording of the speech "Long Live Understanding" were to be broadcasted again on TV.

Jiang Xian really dominated the entire film and television life of the general public.

This was not the end. Wu Kelu from Xinhua News Agency sent Jiang Xian another message, saying that after listening to "Long Live Understanding", some leaders above him wanted to invite Jiang Xian to continue giving speeches across the country.

Of course Jiang Xian refused.

"I'm not a self-employed reporting team!"

"I'm a novelist, why am I running around?"

"If anyone tells me that, people will think I'm going to sell books."

He refused, and others were in a difficult position, thinking that "Long Live Understanding" was such a good subject, it would be a shame if people all over the country didn't hear it.

"Well, I'll give you an idea."

Jiang Xian said, "I will find a few people and form a very capable reporting team. I will ask them to speak on my behalf all over the country. How about that?"

"For you?"

Wu Kelu was considering the matter.

Jiang Xian had really thought about it. He definitely couldn't agree to his superiors' request to stay out day and night doing nothing and go around the country giving speeches on "Long Live Understanding."

But "Long Live Understanding" is such a good subject, and he has already written it, it would be a shame if he didn't make it good.

He felt that this method could satisfy the conditions on both sides.

But there is also a key issue. The person you find to speak for him has to be reliable and cannot speak nonsense. If something goes wrong, the responsibility will inevitably be placed on Jiang Xian.

"."

Cai Chaodong worked in the Cultural Department of the Military Region. After receiving the news, he was very happy and took a train to Beijing.

Recently, many of their soldiers on the front line have heard about the report "Long Live Understanding".

The cause was that many soldiers received letters of condolence from some college students, which contained some words expressing concern for the soldiers' lives.

From these letters, the soldiers gradually learned that there was a report that was very popular in the capital, which talked about their joys, sorrows, anger and happiness.

Later, some soldiers received and bought the single volume of "Long Live Understanding" published by Xinhua Publishing House.

After reading the above content, they were so excited that their eyes were filled with tears.

Those little demands and grievances hidden deep in our hearts.

Finally someone spoke up for them.

As a member of the Ministry of Culture, Cai Chaodong was also very concerned about the lives of the soldiers. He saw some of the soldiers' depression and felt anxious.

Fortunately, after watching "Long Live Understanding", all the discomfort accumulated in his heart was released as if a floodgate had been opened, leaving only the feeling of being moved.

Just a few days ago, his superior informed him that there was a transfer from Beijing and a task was to be assigned to him. Cai Chaodong was still a little confused.

Why was there a sudden transfer?
However, when he heard it was a mission, he did not dare to delay and hurriedly took a train from Kunming and headed north.

After arriving in the capital, he found out that he was transferred here to replace Jiang Xian and continue the "Long Live Understanding" lectures across the country.

Cai Chaodong just felt incredible.

Replace Jiang Xian to give the speech "Long Live Understanding"?
This sounds like a dream.

"How did you find me?"

"Comrade Jiang Xian chose you. He said he had seen you several times on the front lines and thought you were very eloquent. Plus, you have experience in front-line combat, so you will integrate emotionally more quickly."

Jiang Xian had no choice but to choose Cai Chaodong.

Apart from the original author himself, he was really worried that "Long Live Understanding" would fall into the hands of other people.

Anyway, the popularity of "Long Live Understanding" has already made him famous.

Now let's return it to its original author.

Jiang Xian is not a very noble person.

As a reborn person, he would definitely consider himself first when it comes to benefits.

But judging from the current situation, it is no longer a good choice for him to produce "Long Live Understanding".

In order not to bury this work, he would rather return it to Cai Chaodong in this way.

He respects Cai Chaodong quite a bit.

In another time and space, probably in the 90s, Cai Chaodong was transferred to a poor county to serve as county magistrate.

He developed the economy and enterprises in the county and made them flourish. Later, when he was transferred out of the county, there was a touching scene of thousands of people seeing off the good county magistrate for ten miles.

Tens of thousands of people saw him off for ten miles, reluctant to leave.

Jiang Xian fully believes that Cai Chaodong has truly delivered service that touches the hearts of the people.

"Really let me come?"

Cai Chaodong never expected that Jiang Xian would recommend him to talk about the content of "Long Live Understanding".

Just like people in discos and bars would never imagine that they would be killed by a bus.

"No, no, I don't have the ability." He refused instinctively.

Jiang Xian called him immediately.

"Comrade Chaodong, think about it. I'm asking you to express the sorrow in the hearts of the soldiers on the front line. Can you refuse with such a reason?"

"I"

Cai Chaodong hesitated immediately.

Mr. Lu Xun's famous saying is insightful: The Chinese people are always fond of compromise.

For example, if Cai Chaodong was asked to make a report on his behalf, he would definitely disagree; but if the words were changed to make him understand that this was not for Jiang Xian or for himself, but for the soldiers on the front line, he would feel that this was a compromise and would be willing to go.

The reporting group was formed quickly. Although it was called a group, it actually consisted of only Jiang Xian and Cai Chaodong.

Cai Chaodong watched Jiang Xian's video, tried to tell the story several times himself, and told it internally to Jiang Xian and the people from Xinhua News Agency several times. The effect was very good, and he soon had some of the same feeling as Jiang Xian did at the time.

After handing this matter over to Cai Chaodong, Jiang Xian returned to writing "The Last Hun".

People from Yanhe would write to him from time to time, sometimes it was Chen Zhongshi, sometimes it was Lu Yao, and sometimes it was Jia Pingwa.

Jiang Xian was really overwhelmed by the three major players' concern one after another.

He also knew that people were reminding him overtly or covertly because they were afraid that he would forget about the commissioned article.

Jiang Xian didn't procrastinate, and after such a long time, "The Last Hun" is almost finished.

On a sunny afternoon, he rode his bicycle out with a thick stack of manuscripts and went to the post office to mail the manuscripts.

Over the years of writing, Jiang Xian had to send his manuscripts to the editorial department most of the time, or someone else would pass them to the editorial department on his behalf. He rarely submitted his own manuscripts, and all of them were to Harvest.

This time, it was for "Yanhe".

The staff at the Post and Telecommunications Bureau were dumbfounded when they saw the manuscript which was as thick as a piece of cake.

"So thick? Did you write some kind of literary work?"

"Yeah." Jiang Xian did not deny it, "Try to submit your manuscript."

"Wow, that's amazing!"

"Nothing much, just a hobby."

The other party opened up and said with a smile: "I also like writing and have submitted articles. Although I have never written as long as yours, I have published an article in The Ugly Duckling."

Jiang Xian knew it as soon as he smelled it, this person was definitely a bully.

But he was quite cooperative and gave a thumbs up in compliment.

"awesome."

A reserved smile immediately appeared on the other person's face, with a hint of pride hidden in that smile.

He waved his hand and put the letter away.

“There’s an opportunity to connect together.

Oh, please leave your name."

"My name is Jiang Xian."

"Which river?"

"Shuigongjiang."

"Which string?"

"The bow is mysterious."

"."

clack.

The staff member's pen dropped on the table. He looked up at Jiang Xian again, his eyes filled with excitement and anticipation.

"Jiang Xian? Are you the writer?"

"."

“The one who wrote The Flower Garland and Red Sorghum.”

"I don't know if you are talking about me, but I was indeed the one who published "The Garland" and "Red Sorghum." Jiang Xian showed a reserved smile, and that smile was exactly the same as the one on the other person's face just now.

“I’m your reader!”

The other party scratched his head, stood up, and looked excited.

Then he thought about it again, he had just shown off his sword in front of Jiang Xian.

Oops, embarrassing, embarrassing.

His old face turned red.

But this little emotion was quickly replaced by joy.

Let’s not talk about it anymore.

He is thick-skinned anyway.

Jiang Xian certainly wouldn't bother to pay attention to him.

"Can you sign an autograph for me?"

"Sure, no problem."

Jiang Xian quickly wrote one for him and then said goodbye.

The other party thanked him and happily collected the signature. Thinking back to this encounter with Comrade Jiang Xian, it was really wonderful.
correct.

He suddenly remembered.

This time Jiang Xian came here to submit a manuscript.

Doesn't this mean.

The writer's next great novel will be out soon.
