Riding the wind of rebirth

"Eh?"

These two stones were originally picked up by my godfather as stones with inscriptions. He already had a set of "August 1st" Yangtze River stones with black background and white characters. Later, he picked up another one with white background and black characters, but there was an extra black dot below the "August 1st" character, making it less perfect.

As a result, after a while, the matching "one" stone was not found, but my godmother picked up another stone of similar size, which also had words similar to the character "八" and a black spot on the ground, so they made a pair.

Mai Xiaomiao is not sensitive to Chinese characters. When everyone was lamenting the imperfections of Chinese characters, she shouted out the word "panda", which was really lifelike.

However, it is not the whole body of the panda, just the panda head, without the ears. However, the two black eye circles and a little mouth are both abstract and similar.

The most rare thing is a pair. Putting them there is like you looking at me and I looking at you. It is both magical and interesting.

"Hahaha..." The godmother smiled and took down the two "panda stones": "Godfather and godmother don't have much to show for it, so let's give this pair of stones to Xiao Miao as a gift. If you hadn't said it, we wouldn't have noticed that they looked like pandas. Now that you've said it, they really do look alike! I hope that you and Elbow will be like this pair of stones. God has destined you to be together, so you can live happily together for the rest of your lives."

"Thank you, godmother!" Mai Xiaomiao was very happy and accepted it without any refusal.

"This year, the cultural work of Liangshan Prefecture has been very successful again." When everyone sat back at the table, the godmother said, "The Origin and History of the Yi Nationality in Liangshan and Yi Inscriptions, plus the epic poem Leo Teyi, have all been selected for inclusion in the National Library. The epic poem Leo Teyi also won the first multimedia award established by the National Book Award. Elbow, are these all related to you?"

"There's nothing we can do about it. We've fallen into a trough of cultural excavation." Zhou Zhi said with a smile, "Yi culture itself is very rich and extensive, but it has not received enough attention for a long time. Now, if we dig up something, it will amaze the outside world."

"There is another book series next - Bimo Sheepskin Book. Chi Xueli is also shooting a documentary with the same name, as well as Bimo Nuo Ritual. Due to special reasons, Bimo Nuo Ritual may only be used as an internal data film, but Bimo Sheepskin Book is an important video record of Grandpa Chi Ri making the Great Bimo Cave public, and it will definitely cause a sensation."

"But these are the unique cultural advantages of ethnic minority areas, which the Manzhou cannot envy."

"When are you going to go back?" Godmother asked, "What did Mr. Gu say about Shu University's academic work?"

"We are going back to Shudu tomorrow. Once we get the computing black box of the Ship Power Research Institute ready, we will go back to Lianhe Township. It will take about two or three days." Zhou Zhi calculated the time and said, "It's mainly because there is a launch window recently. The navy uncle contacted Captain Zhou of the launch center and asked us to take the children of the village primary school to receive patriotism education and watch the satellite launch. We can't miss such a good thing."

"It's a bit regrettable. I wanted to ask you for advice." Godfather said, "We have now assigned the task to the cultural bureaus of each county to collect and organize the intangible cultural heritage of each township. However, regarding the scope of this intangible cultural heritage, the counties are actually a little confused. How to distinguish it from feudal superstition, pornography and vulgarity is a difficult problem for the work below."

"A girl was in love, and a noble man seduced her. The Master might not have thought about these issues when he was collecting and compiling the Book of Songs." Zhou Zhi couldn't help laughing: "I don't think these are included in the judgment of the collection and compilation of intangible cultural heritage. The term intangible cultural heritage itself has no positive or negative meaning. It can be used as a benchmark when collecting and compiling. As for the so-called good or bad, that is a necessary measure to be taken after the collection and compilation and before promotion."

"If we put this aside and look at intangible cultural heritage, it should include oral traditions and expressions; performing arts; social practices, rituals, festivals; knowledge and practices; traditional skills, sports, entertainment; traditional handicrafts, and the rest should be included in other categories."

"If they are still confused, we can send them the list of Jiachuan's intangible cultural heritage for reference. We have done this before, so we can just ask them to copy the homework. It's not that difficult."

"We have already done the latter part, but the former part has given us some inspiration." The godmother nodded: "Indeed, the responsibility for judging good and bad does not lie with them. We cannot use this as an excuse to delay work. I understand." After saying that, she patted Zhou Zhi's shoulder with satisfaction: "After all, people who have done a lot of big things have clear minds. Let them report first, and then we will set up a review team to determine whether it falls within the scope of collection, promotion, and reporting. It will be simple if we clarify the work responsibilities."

"This is actually my habitual idea of ​​building a system." Zhou Zhi said: "Improve the workflow."

"It seems that even if we don't build a system, we still need to form this kind of thinking in our work." Godfather nodded: "What is the name of your book? Information Management?"

"Information Engineering Management." Mai Xiaomiao answered quickly.

"Dad is now an expert." Zhou Zhi said with a smile: "You can ask him any questions about this kind of workflow design."

The reunion was ultimately joyful but short-lived. Early the next morning, Zhou Zhi and Mai Xiaomiao left Manzhou.

"Why don't you take the Yandu Road?" Mom was more careful after all. She probably asked around yesterday. "It's a longer route, but it's much easier to get there."

"Xiao Miao often comes to visit." Dad also felt a little regretful: "This time it was too hasty. Find a vacation time to come back, and we can also use our vacation time to have a good time as a family for a few days."

"How about I call you guys when the lychees come out?" Mom said, "Elbow, didn't you say you could work anywhere during this shift? Then we can just drag the equipment back, right?"

"Mom, I'm talking about laboratory monitoring and management. As long as there is satellite communication equipment, it can be done anywhere. But I'm also responsible for some construction work in Lianhe Township, so I can't just leave whenever I want." Zhou Zhi was speechless. It seemed that his parents really liked Mai Xiaomiao, but they couldn't arrange it casually, right?

"Bring more grapefruits." Grandma reminded: "Bring them to your master and tell him that steaming your eyes with grapefruit peel, chrysanthemum and steamed pork liver is good for your eyes."

"Okay, okay..." Zhou Zhi pulled Mai Xiaomiao into the car: "Then we'll set off now."

"Goodbye grandma, goodbye uncle and aunt!"

"I like this girl." After the guards passed Zhongshan Park, my mother withdrew her raised hand and began her summary speech.

"It seems that she has a very good relationship with Elbow. Elbow treats her well, too." Grandma nodded, "It's a little different from the relationship she has with Xueshan."

"Mom, you figured it out too?" My mom also felt the same way as my grandmother: "Even that damn kid Elbow didn't give us a definite answer. Does this count as a virgin boyfriend or girlfriend?" (End of this chapter)
