Chapter 112 Great Talent
This is the first time that Liu Jingting has seen a big shot in reality.
"Grandpa Li, grandpa." Gong Chengen bowed slightly and greeted him, and then introduced Liu Jingting: "Gu Yongsheng is here."
The two old men turned their heads and looked at Liu Jingting together. One of them said, "It's kind and gentle, and it turns out that he has a scholarly temperament. Xiao Gu, oh, don't you mind calling you Xiao Gu, do you? You can call me Lao Li."
"Hello, Lao Li." Liu Jingting greeted him politely, and the other people on the field were stunned.
Old Li didn't care at all and nodded with a smile.
"I'm afraid something is wrong if you call me Lao Gong." Gong Yuanhe's face had an unknown smile, giving people a kind of cunning as high as the mountains and the sea.
"Hello Grandpa Gong." Liu Jingting shouted naturally, as if calling out an ordinary old man.
Gong Yuanhe seemed a little surprised by this title, and Gong Chengen explained: "Grandpa, I have worshipped Gu Yongsheng and I."
Gong Yuanhe smiled with satisfaction, patted Lao Li, and said, "If you want to be called grandpa, you have to look at the face of your grandson. Your little tiger has a good relationship with Chengde. At that time, let them make friends with them together."
Lao Li said: "I'm not here to accept my grandson, I'm here to make friends," and shook his head in disappointment, "Jihu is too playful and can't compare with your family. Let him play for another year. I'll send him to Wanxiang and ask Lao Kang to help me take care of it."
Gong Yuanhe nodded in agreement, then turned to ask Gong Chengen: "Are your uncle planning to send Chenghui to Wanxiang as well?"
Gong Chengen said: "Yes, that is, next year, it is said that Vientiane will open a college of literature and arts next year."
Gong Yuanhe nodded, turned to look at Lao Li again, and said, "I heard that Dean Kang is very busy. Gong Yang asked him for dinner several times but was refused, and he came to me."
Lao Li smiled and said with a smile: "I guess he will receive dozens or hundreds of invitations for dinner every day. I will ask him to come out for tea, but I can only get three out of ten. I am busy with the opening of the new college recently, so I am afraid I will have no time."
"Only by the way, you can succeed if you have a concentration in your work. By the way, I will call me next time I drink tea and I won't lose face in front of my children and grandchildren."
Old Li agreed with a smile. Butler Ma smiled accordingly, but Gong Chengen still maintained a respectful attitude meticulously. Liu Jingting stood there with a smile, feeling deeply again that the so-called connection resources were probably the opportunity to get a cup of tea through a game of chess.
"Come on, let us two old men talk about it. Let the guests stand there." Old Li looked at Liu Jingting and reminded.
"Sit down now." Gong Yuanhe pointed to the two sofas, "Dinner started later."
Gong Chengen smiled at Liu Jingting with a slight apology and asked him to sit down politely. Liu Jingting shook his head slightly, indicating that it was okay, and then sat calmly.
While the two young people were making eye contact, the two old people also looked at each other and smiled, with quite approving in their eyes.
This is the most common play for the elderly to test young people. Since you are a noble talent, let's take a look at your cultivation. As a result, people do not show any neglected emotions or expressions from beginning to end. The most rare thing is that the etiquette displayed by the ancient Yongsheng is not because of their identity, but because of their age.
Either a young man who still has a innocent heart or a terrifyingly cunning young man.
"I have two questions that I'm very curious. I hope Xiaogu can answer me. First, the "Legend of Chu Liuxiang" you wrote on stage, said through Chu Liuxiang's mouth, 'I hope to listen to a happy story and have a happy ending, because there are too many tragedies in this world'. Is this your own reflection? Second, Xiaogu, you are young, why do you have a special liking for tragedy in your previous novels? Even the old man, I, have lost appetite?"
Liu Jingting thought to himself: "Such organization and logic should be a professional habit." He replied with a smile: "Chu Liuxiang's words actually meant to express two meanings. They are both self-mockery of the previous tragedies, and also want to pretend to be a public intellectual and express their feelings about some real and tragic events."
"As for the second question, you can treat them as a kind of complaint about the emotional life of young people."
Gong Chengen glanced at him deeply.
Lao Li said: "The White Horse Roars in the West Wind" should not be that simple. The two famous sentences in it have a metaphysical philosophical meaning."
Liu Jingting said: "This is the result of a second creation. Readers are willing to interpret this way. It is also something to be proud of for the story and the words themselves."
Lao Li nodded and said, "Actually, what you wanted to express at that time was the emotion of that girl?"
Gong Chengen said: "At least in that story, these words appear naturally. This is the most important thing. No one will like the sudden selling concepts in literary works."
Lao Li smiled and said, "This is very good. Although we always require literary and artistic workers to promote some positive energy in their works, this does not mean that we want all movies, TV series, novels and dramas to come out together to instill great truths in everyone, and to convey them through stories, rather than explaining them bluntly."
Everyone naturally knows who "we" Lao Li refers to.
Liu Jingting said: "This has always been a problem, because many times, people just want to tell a simple story, but suddenly they think that the above conveys the spirit and must abide by the principle of "three discords and three necessities" in their works, so they had to modify it on the spot, add a stroke to the east and another stroke to the west, and the integrity will be destroyed."
Gong Yuanhe smiled and said, "This is something I have been complaining about with Lao Li."
Lao Li said: "This is a specific work. Now it is about a hundred schools of thought contending, and a hundred flowers blooming. It will become more and more relaxed in the future. It requires the two parties to coordinate with each other. For example, if you write about this Chu Liuxiang, it is correct to rob the rich and help the poor, but if you calculate carefully, it is also an infringement on other people's legal property."
Liu Jingting hurriedly said, "Old Li, don't scare me, this story is just the beginning, and it's still long after it."
"Haha, kids, don't worry. This kind of thing is not recommended, but it will not be restricted. And you always have ways to avoid it easily. For example, these property are actually ill-gotten wealth, and this is an inconclusive thing, which is essentially in line with our spirit of "taking it from the people and returning it to the people", even if it is written."
Gong Yuanhe said: "We are also people who will be dissatisfied. After all, as vested interests, they will not like a thief like Chu Liuxiang, but from a story point of view, I am afraid that no one will dislike Chu Liuxiang, so this is not a problem."
With Gong Yuanhe's eyes, he naturally knew the huge business opportunities hidden in Chu Liuxiang. He knew even more that with Gong Chengpin's means, the film and television adaptations of these two novels were obtained by Nine-Story Nine, so he would rather call himself a high-profile "vsitor" and stifle possible problems in the cradle.
The dialogue form later was still the same as Old Li's move, Xiao Gu Po. After several exchanges, Old Li became more and more selfless, and he was about to debate with Liu Jingting until dawn, until the housekeeper Gong Jiama reminded him: "It's time to eat."
So Lao Li brought the topic to the dining table, Gong Yuanhe watched with a bystander, and originally planned to take the exam for the archaeological mediocre student with Lao Li, but he found that the young man showed his insights in his words and words. Moreover, he found that some of the questions raised by Gu Yongsheng were actually problems that he had been enduring and had not found a suitable opportunity to tell Lao Li, and his impression of Gu Yongsheng was improved one level.
Halfway through the dinner, Gong Chengde rushed over and was shocked when he saw the situation on the dinner table. He knew Grandpa Li's identity, and because he was a close friend of Grandpa Li's grandson Li Jihu, he respected Grandpa Li as much as his grandfather. But at this time, he saw that the old man who had always been gentle and unfathomable was chatting with Gu Yongsheng.
What is "the essence of literature and art is propaganda", what is "art has no borders and artists have nationality", what is "novels cannot be missed for entertainment, but they must also bear education", etc.
The old and the young talked, and it seemed like they met too late, but grandpa and cousin listened with a smile on the side.
Gong Chengde first greeted his grandfather, then sat down next to Gong Chengen and asked in a low voice: "How long has it been?"
“From meeting until now.”
"sharp."
The chat between Lao Li and Xiao Gu ran through the whole supper. When Lao Li realized this, someone had already come to pick him up.
Gong Yuanhe waved her hand and said, "I won't go back tonight."
Old Li ended the conversation with unsatisfactory and said, "I have been married to my wife for forty years and have never had a criminal record of not staying at night, so I have to leave."
Lao Li was leaving, of course Gong Yuanhe personally saw him off. Before getting on the bus, Lao Li whispered to Gong Yuanhe: "Little Gu Tian, even a great talent, should not be missed."
Gong Yuanhe smiled and said, "You have used one night to remind me about this."
"I haven't had such a happy chat in many years, I'm happy."
...
After sending Lao Li, Gong Yuanhe personally arranged a guest room for Liu Jingting.
It was the first time that Liu Jingting saw a large TV hanging on the wall, and it actually had an automatic window. When the button was pressed, the wall slowly opened with a "beep", and the huge TV screen slowly revealed its true face.
Liu Jingting smiled and said to Gong Chengen. Gong Chengde joked: "I have a rich second-generation classmate in elementary school who is idle all day long and pulls the little girl's braids everywhere. He never studies hard. I am very dissatisfied with him and is determined to surpass him one day. So I study hard and write hard. Today, I finally have works that everyone likes and become famous. And that rich second-generation classmate-he now has a private jet and a private yacht, and there are constant beauties around him."
Chengen Chengde looked at each other in disagreement.
Liu Jingting said: "This is a joke told by a humorous beast."
After confirming the room, Gong Chengen and Gong Chengde took Liu Jingting to enjoy the night view of the river and sea. Walking among the lights and wine, Liu Jingting suddenly understood why so many people were going to flock to this city one after another. Even if they couldn't own it, taking a photo would make many people feel satisfied.
Of course, when more young people step into this city, they should think that one day, I will lie drunk in this city that never sleeps.
