Thousands of years

chapter 129

The sky is full of beautiful clouds, and the fish in the lake reflect thousands of scales.The wind hits the waist of the weeping willow, and the beautiful eyelashes are shining.

Looking around, there are ten miles of fine clothes, and a crowd of joyful people, making the bustling West Lake, with people coming and going, like boiling waves.

It is indeed rare to see a start-up ceremony on the bank of the West Lake. Uncle Ning Yunfan’s courage is not enough if he wants to set the start-up location here. He has to rely on the money he has saved over the years. As a screenwriter and director, he almost has an absolute right to speak.

"How about it, your uncle and I are not behind you young people in this idea?" All the necessary preparations have been prepared, and taking advantage of the moment before the opening ceremony, the uncle Tong Ning Yunfan joked.

The opening ceremony was added to the West Lake Poetry Garden, but when the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming, it can be said that there is nothing to be picky about.

"Director Ning!"

I don't know what happened, the staff called over there, Uncle Ning Yunfan could only shrug his shoulders, and retreated from the three young people.

"I have to say, ginger is still old and hot!" Glancing at the grand occasion around, Sheng Xia curled her lips, "The opening ceremony at the West Lake will get publicity, but if you deliberately maintain the surrounding order, it won't take half an hour. Once someone with a heart reported it, his taste changed."

"It's really high to have a poetry meeting like this, set up a few prizes, and promote it in an interactive form before starting the machine!"

"I'm stunned, I'm stunned, I have to analyze their marketing model for everything I look at." An Ji hurriedly said, dragging Sheng Xia into the crowd, "let go of your professionalism, after being tired for a while, a Are you not tired of making money?"

Sheng Xia was dissatisfied and stood there, refusing to leave no matter what he said: "I am not just studying how to make money, you see this is also a way of cultural transmission..."

"You're the only one who will make excuses, go away, or Ning Yunfan and his uncle will arrest you and take pictures at the opening ceremony!"

Hearing this, Sheng Xia trembled in fright: "That's not allowed! If I accidentally get close to one of their 'brothers'... Hiss!"

The power of fanatical fans of traffic stars cannot be underestimated, and sometimes the impact on social security is not good.

Although this kind of behavior is naturally not feasible in a legal society, even if the perpetrator is severely punished by the law, the impact on the victim will last for a long time. Sheng Xia dare not use it to bet on whether he will become the "victim".

"My uncle's casting is all old drama, and that kind of thing won't happen." Probably because he was worried about An Ji alone, Ning Yunfan also followed him at some point, "I told him, You don't like to join in the fun, he can understand."

"But my uncle also said that there may be a special interview to create momentum for the TV series. It just so happens that An Ji's application for the city-level intangible heritage inheritor is also coming down."

An Ji and Sheng Xia are not afraid to face the camera, not to mention this rare opportunity to appeal to the public to fall in love with Hang Luo and traditional Chinese culture, which is what they both dream of.

"Okay, then you two play slowly, and you can also watch a few short clips of our actors' live performances in a while. Uncle means to bring you a wave of traffic first." He conveyed all the words that uncle wanted to convey to Two of An Ji's girlfriends, Ning Yunfan trotted around the scene of the opening ceremony.

The waves of the lake gather for thousands of miles, and the willows blow colorfully.Winter in the West Lake is beautiful even though it is cold. At this time, the green of the street is shuttling among the children who come here to participate in the poetry meeting, wanting to hold more flowers.

"An Ji, look, that's the one we just put on the shelves, right?"

Looking in the direction that Sheng Xia pointed, the clothes on a couple caught An Ji's attention: "It seems to be true. Although we see that our backstage sales are indeed quite a lot now, I really didn't expect to meet them in life."

"Who said it wasn't? When I first started making Hanfu, I hoped that more people could feel the beauty of Hanfu and even the costumes of various ethnic groups. Wearing it on the street...it would be best if I could meet that kind by chance!"

Sheng Xia's selfishness is really not that big, it's just that the urgency and excitement when he spoke made An Ji laugh out loud.

"Look, you laughed at me again, it's not that I don't dare to expect too much!" Knowing that her best friend was laughing at her childishness again, Sheng Xia couldn't help being angry, "These have to be done step by step, and the previous small goals have been achieved. , I dare to have big ideals in the future!"

Nodding in agreement, An Ji was dragged and turned around by Sheng Xia before he could react: "Come on, let's go over there, and join in the fun at their opening ceremony!"

"Nothing else, the main reason is that the live broadcast and videos of our Hanfu store are basically made by myself... I'm afraid of being recognized." Knowing that her attitude has changed inexplicably, Sheng Xia explained in a low voice.

While walking back in midsummer, An Ji didn't forget to joke: "Okay, who knew that the shop that killed people on the Internet turned out to be a social terror in reality!"

"Who said..."

"Then why did our store turn around?"

"It's all up to you... Aren't I afraid of being reminded of those pre-sales and design drawings?"

The two girlfriends talked and laughed and approached the main venue of the poetry club, which was also the location of the opening ceremony. From a long distance, they saw the four big characters of "Shili West Lake" written on the billboard.

"Or you have to be a professional calligrapher, the more you look at it, the more interesting it is." Sheng Xia stretched his neck and looked around, "An Ji, look at the airplane box and hang tag we designed, all of which are written at first glance. It’s very beautiful, but after looking at it for a long time, I feel that there are flaws everywhere.”

"When I have money, I will definitely ask a calligrapher to write a copy for me, and then redesign the packaging." Staring at the title of the play'Shili West Lake', Sheng Xia tsk tsk, envious.

"You see it's a pretty good name."

"The West Lake in the poem, the West Lake is the hometown of poetry, plus Liu Yong's phrase 'ten miles of lotus', it is really complete!"

There are really enough words in midsummer, and there is a little bit of "people come crazy", the more people there are, the more excited they are, and they just kept talking in An Ji's ear: "Hey, An Ji, I think you hang out this time. Luo can definitely be completely infuriated."

"Just look at the ones that became popular before, and they are basically inseparable from the promotion of film and television dramas. And I have also read their scripts. I think that although it looks too official on the surface, it is just like the one that became popular two years ago. Like a modern history film, many of them are anecdotes about three great poets, and the characters are portrayed very cutely."

"Based on the fact that we also created a small drama at the time, I dare to assert that your Uncle Ning Yunfan's drama will definitely be popular!" Having a good chat will soon be turned into gossip-like mystery by Midsummer, "Let's lend me a good word!"

"Hahaha."

"Midsummer, what good will it do you to laugh at me to death?"

"I'm dying of laughter, I'm dying of laughter, no one will squeeze the labor force!"

There are many big directors who make movies, Uncle Ning Yunfan is actually not well-known, but this 'new' opening ceremony attracted a lot of media reports, the crowd got bigger and bigger, An Ji and Sheng Xia also took the opportunity to squeeze out , to the activity area to join in the fun.

Walking to the self-service answering area, he picked up the questions printed on the table. An Ji hadn't started reading yet, and Sheng Xia's voice sounded again: "An Ji, you said that if you combine this with the script that was very popular a while ago, I'm afraid it will be able to kill you." It attracts a lot of people!"

"Looking at the bamboo curtain, ask about Begonia after the rain. Thinking about Li Qingzhao's troubles in the second half of her life, she is actually full of optimism. Although she writes about the miserable spring, she still has a little leisure time in the end." Xu Shi studied Chinese language and literature earlier. Sheng Xia couldn't stop talking about his thoughts.

"When I didn't know Hang Luo before, I just thought that the ancients were not stupid, and they wouldn't let the curtains suffocate me to death." While speaking, Sheng Xia sighed, "Thinking about it now, it's airy and beautiful... and think about the flowers and candles in the bridal chamber , the shadowy warm yellow, isn’t it the ambient light we are talking about now?”

"Li Baidou's Hundred Poems on Wine, does everyone know that Li Qingzhao also composes poems after drinking?" At a booth not far away, the host was talking hard about the opening remarks, "Li Baiyou'hu'er will exchange for fine wine, and sell it with you Li Qingzhao also wrote wine in his poems for the famous sentence of “Eternal Sorrow.”

The specific rules of the game are written on the notice board in front of the booth, and the participants who can participate circle three circles from the left to the right, so that the participants in the back row can only hold up the long selfie sticks and stretch them in front of the notice board Take a picture, and carefully take it back to look at.

"Be careful, you almost hit our child's head!"

"Your children, don't you know how to take care of them yourself, and you still come to join in the fun? Didn't you never meet them? Let's talk when we meet you!"

"Okay, okay, everyone takes a step back, everyone is out to play."

When there are too many people, it is inevitable that there will be some troubles. An Ji and Sheng Xia thought they had no ability to persuade a fight, so they simply stayed away and did not get involved.

"Hey, to be honest, it's really unnecessary to come out to play." A little away from the crowd, Sheng Xia couldn't help complaining, "Sometimes I can understand why our cultural communication is so difficult..."

The excellent traditional Chinese culture contains many thoughts of "peace is the most important", "tolerance", and "love benevolence", and it also repeatedly expresses "the husband is the only one who does not fight, and he cannot compete with him", "the best is like water, and water is good for benefit" The thought of doing nothing is carried out.

The 'patriarchy' that still exists in developed and underdeveloped areas, or all kinds of restraints on women, sometimes look at it—even worse than the social environment recorded in that anonymous book. Self-reliance.

"The thinking of the older generation cannot be changed, but these valuable and positive ideas should really be incorporated into teaching materials, so that even if the family education of those children is not good, at least they can pass the education of society and schools. Change it!"

"Nowadays, many people in the society use the guise of 'taking the essence and discarding the dross' to pretend that the relationship between father and son, master and student is 'equality' in the name of 'equality'." Shengxia Yue said The more indignant, "How many teachers are so humble that they dare not even say harsh words to students."

Sheng Xia, who wanted to use the bear child as an example, said half of what he said, and swallowed it back: "How many parents now... are pretty bears."

"Just like those people on the Internet, when they talk about cultural self-confidence, there are always people who will complain about our blind cultural self-confidence, saying that a certain country has had a certain innovation for so many years, and we are only now making it."

"I just can't figure it out. What did you do when they came to criticize?" Sheng Xia sneered, but couldn't get rid of the sourness in his heart, "At this point, are you still saying that if you don't know how to cook, you can't judge the chef?"

"Is this a concept? You at least know the concept of food. For cultural things like ours, they start talking about it before they even understand the concept... It's good to be innovative. No one supports it. There is enthusiasm for innovation." What's the use?"

"They don't need their material things, just a little spiritual support is enough." Bending down and bowing his head, Sheng Xia picked up the mineral water bottle on the ground and threw it heavily into the trash can beside him, "Besides, as far as the innovations they mentioned, how much They were all made by our ancestors, and someone restored them in the last century!"

"Seriously, as far as the ones in your comment section are concerned, even if we are not friends, I still have to hate them!"

Just because the two waves of tourists who almost quarreled in front of the booth just now aroused waves in his heart, it was like a violent storm stirring in his chest in an instant.

It wasn’t the chrysanthemum appreciation that had few visitors that day, and there was no chrysanthemum wine and sweet-scented osmanthus wine to taste in midsummer, but just like Li Qingzhao who had drunk a glass of turbid wine, he couldn’t get used to the world’s so-and-so – women’s thoughts were at this moment, Spanning nearly a thousand years, it resonates by the West Lake.

There were bursts of piano sound not far away, a little hazy, but sometimes turned sharply, which seemed to be in harmony with the resentment in Midsummer's heart.An Ji and Sheng Xia didn't know much about guqin, so they just went nearby to listen.

It wasn't until he saw the corner of the man's clothes in the middle through the crowd that he suddenly recognized from his clothes that it was Li Qingzhao from "The West Lake in Poetry".

"This song is "Drunkard". In this play, Li Qingzhao is talking about the character. Don't tell me, it's really interesting." Someone in the crowd not far in front was talking about science with his friends. Chuang, although it is said that he lives in seclusion in the mountains and forests, drinking to forget his worries, but in fact he is still thinking about the world's major affairs in his heart."

"Think about it, when Li Qingzhao moved to West Lake, the country was broken and the mountains and rivers existed, his lover abandoned the city and passed away, and he was guarding the pile of gold and stones that could not speak, plus the cold rain in the south of the Yangtze River... At that time, there was no such thing as Hangzhou. It’s so warm now, it’s going to snow in winter!”

Both An Ji and Sheng Xia knew about this period of history, but they were not very familiar with this piano piece. Now that they have heard other people's explanations, they also have a preliminary understanding of this "Drunk Maniac".

But would Li Qingzhao, a lyricist of the graceful school, really play such a song in that distant Southern Song Dynasty?The two dare not say anything.I saw the cold wind blowing through Luo Yi, and a silvery yellow warm light overflowed like waves.

At least among the threads of the clothes, this 'Li Qingzhao' and this Luo Yi have been recognized by such beautiful things as the breeze and the sunny day for thousands of years. Yu Anji and midsummer have no regrets.

　① "Love and benevolence" and so on come from Confucianism, and "inaction" and so on come from Taoism
　　② "Jiu Kuang" was created by Ruan Ji and is "handed down" and actually recorded in the Ming Dynasty

　　Off-topic ①: Regarding celebrities, I don’t mean to attack fan circles. It is aimed at some social phenomena, even Internet articles are widespread. Public order and good customs, even acts that violate the law.

　　Digression ②: The TV series "Shili West Lake" does not exist in reality. According to my personal search, there is no released or approved film with the same title. If there is such a film in the future, it is really not me. (Enquiry on 2023.04.29, no same name)
