this man is not calm

Chapter 254 Sophistication
Adaptations and covers of popular songs are actually very common.The same song, if you slightly adjust the arrangement and sing it with another person, it will give people a completely different feeling.

In most cases, as long as the theme and core of the song don't change much, it won't be too bad.If you deviate too far, the risk will be greater.

Huang Jiaran was also very interested in interesting things about the music industry and small details of music theory, which fully demonstrated how many useless skills a young star-chaser can master.

Fortunately, the idol she pursues is Dai Yiqin, not Jin Shang, so embarrassing things will not happen.

When we talk about light topics, time flies by very quickly.With Wu Chan on hand to keep an eye on things, Huang Jiaran, who had minor problems from time to time, would not be allowed to act arbitrarily.In short, the interview was carried out step by step. At the end, when the guests were sending messages, Jin Shang said a few words and ended the interview recording.

"The plan is to broadcast it tomorrow night. The specific situation depends on the editing. Xiao Jin is not only a rising star selected by the media and has high hopes, but also one of the top ten outstanding young people in Beijing. In terms of age and achievements, the advantage is too great. Only two or three Individuals can compare..."

"It's not about being the best."

Wu Chan couldn't help but smile after hearing this.

"There are different leaders in different fields. For example, in digital audio and video, the invention of DVD was a leap forward in storage media, and in the medical field, there are still many capable people in early embryonic development and genetic disease control. of."

"It's...it's true."

Applied science, especially in the field of basic research, requires not only sufficient talent and ability, but also the perseverance to sacrifice and pay for it.Most of the research results are a new path found through trial and error.

You can imagine how difficult it is to widen roads and open up a new cognitive area in untouched areas.

With Jinxi Culture’s existing scientific research capabilities, it is very difficult to pick and choose from past achievements, constantly match and combine them, and find available technology categories, let alone create new development directions out of nothing.

In the end, the Internet is just a high-rise building built on the solid foundation of the past. Without preliminary preparation, it is just a castle in the air.

"In the field of basic scientific research, there is no competition. I am not a scientist, just a businessman who is not yet mature."

"There is no need to belittle oneself. Technology was invented to benefit mankind. Many achievements have been born for decades, but they can only be shelved. It takes geniuses with great vision to realize their potential. Otherwise, they can only stay in the laboratory. The actual value of the results here is not very great.”

"I like to hear this. I am full of respect for those scholars who have dedicated their youth and lifelong wisdom. How to use those achievements to benefit mankind is the responsibility of young people in the new era."

"It's no use telling me. You can communicate with them more when you have time."

Wu Chan directed her colleagues to pack their things and prepare to return.
"That's it for today, please, Xiao Jin."

For Jin Shang, a day's shooting is equivalent to finding a few acquaintances and chatting in front of the camera.It's different for Wu Chan, Huang Jiaran and others. This is a proper weekend overtime.

Although the rest time for media practitioners is not fixed, TV station staff can still basically guarantee their vacation.If Jin Shang and Zhu Jingxiao hadn't agreed to shoot today, it would have been a waste of a working day to complete it.

After seeing the group off, Jin Shang called the housekeeper to clean up as soon as possible, open the windows to remove the smell, clean up the dust, and tidy up the garage and the small yard where a few flowers and plants were planted.

By dinner time, Li Xuan, who had originally agreed to come back later, actually drove her car back early.

"You went out to play, why do you look a little unhappy?"

After briefly washing up, Li Xuan sat on the sofa and kept pressing the remote control. She seemed to be unable to find a program that she liked. It seemed that it was nothing serious, but Jin Shang was keenly aware that she was obviously a little absent-minded.

"There are too many people. It used to be just a small gathering of three or five people, but today there are a lot of people, more than a dozen, and it's a mess."

"A little more lively, wouldn't you?"

"It depends on who the person is. There are only two or three people among them who are good friends who talk about everything. The others are actually not that familiar. And..."

As if thinking of something bad, Li Xuan said slightly unhappily,

"I feel that after entering society, the originally not particularly pure, but still harmonious relationship has become more and more turbulent."

"Really."

It's probably a story about six people in the same dormitory, but there are dozens of groups, pulling each other down.

"You understand that?"

"I can't even find a student of the same age who is about the same age. I haven't contacted him since graduation. How can I have a chance to play some intrigue games?"

In fact, if you think about it, you will know that some people's workplaces are more respectable, while others are slightly less so. The wages, vacations, and even development prospects are very different.

Li Xuan, who was not in a bad condition, followed Jin Shang to play "entrepreneurial games" after graduation. Many classmates disapproved of it and felt that she had been deceived by Jin Shang's sweet words.

Half a year has passed, and a large number of new employees in the workplace have not even passed their probationary period. Only a small number have become regular employees. Li Xuan is already a middle-level manager of a well-known domestic technology company, and there are only two or three people who have been directly deployed by it. Ten, indirectly managing 400 people across the country.

When the news of Jinxi Mall’s successful financing and its valuation of 30 billion spreads, it is certain that some people will have an unbalanced mentality.

Again, I am afraid that my brother will have a hard time, and I am even more afraid that my brother will drive a Land Rover.

The friendship between female classmates does not need to be demonized or overestimated.

Jin Shang also knew a few of Li Xuan's friends. Most of them were honest girls from local villages and counties who came to the capital after passing the exams. They were well-known talented women in the local area, but they were lost to everyone when they got to university.

In comparison, those students from other colleges in the girls' department are more pure because they have fewer interests.

"Why are you sulking? Tell me and let me hear it. I'm curious..."

After repeated questioning, Li Xuan finally said it.

"Just because I was the only one driving there, there were always people saying mean and mean things. I was taking advantage of my boyfriend, so I didn't know how to be reserved."

"That's it."

It's a bit far from the city center, and the bus schedules are too long, so when Jin Shang and Li Xuan travel, they basically have to drive back and forth. It's really inconvenient, so they have to take a taxi to commute.

Jin Shang had no other intention of asking his girlfriend to drive to this get-together. With this condition, there was no need to deliberately wrong himself.

As a result, it caused a little trouble.

Li Xuan’s classmates basically all know that her family is not poor, but they have no idea how rich she is. It’s not that she is low-key, but that on campus these days, the trend is still to follow the crowd, even if her family is special. If you are rich and powerful, you will not stand out.

What’s the point of having a car?
If those sour classmates knew that Li Xuan had bought a villa and that she didn't live in it, but just installed it and left it there, I don't know how jealous they would be. "Don't take it too seriously. The so-called wealth exchanges for wives, and the noble exchanges for friends. It is human nature, and it may not be without reason. The gap in wealth and status will lead to conflicts in perceptions and positions. We are all common people, so don't be harsh on others. Friends of the poor and the humble Don’t forget, it’s a nice thing to say that a wife of wretched men will not leave the house or change her original intention, but there is no need to care too much about it…”

"I'm not too angry, just a little disappointed."

Li Xuan shook her head stubbornly,

"Did you make up these sentences?"

"It's not...it's just something you feel."

After thinking about it for a while, Jin Shang couldn't explain it in detail. "Zengguang Xianwen" was first published during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty. It was a relatively popular enlightenment text. Limited by the constraints of the times, it was filled with many things that were inconsistent with modern moral values. Rong’s so-called “wisdom of life”.

"You felt dissatisfied, so you came back early?"

"No, I couldn't tell. Naturally, we left early. They said something happened, but I think it was just an excuse."

Although he didn't mean to show off, his showy appearance made others seem less "upright". His girlfriend Li Xuan felt that the atmosphere was not right, and others would feel uncomfortable.

"I didn't think twice. It might be better to drive you there earlier and pick you up later."

Scratching the back of his head, Jin Shang slightly regretted it. There were some small details that he could have done better to avoid unnecessary troubles and misunderstandings.

"It's not your fault. I was also a little careless. I thought it was still the time before, when I was chatting and laughing, heartless, and didn't care about anything. Besides, you still have the business of accepting interviews, so it's not good for it to be delayed."

"Will you still go to these gatherings in the future?"

"Of course I want to go. It's not like there was a falling out. It's just that some people are acting strangely, which makes the atmosphere weird."

"Ok."

Although my girlfriend Li Xuan is a local rich lady who is not very familiar with the world, it does not mean that she is stupid.Although she has some shortcomings unique to little girls, she is still a good person.

What makes Jin Shang most gratified is that Li Xuan is not a person who easily holds grudges and loves to get into trouble.

Choosing friends is a major test of one's character, especially how to manage many interpersonal relationships. It requires not only cleverness and intrigue, but also sufficient wisdom and a philosophy of life.Some can be learned and learned, while others are innate traits.

Sometimes, Jin Shang had to lament that a funny soul, a sincere smile and a kind heart really need careful care to grow up.

Even if she was a little sulky, Li Xuan did not look at her close or not close friends and classmates from the perspective of "evil nature". She could see the essence of the problem sharply, and she could still be patient, try hard to get along, and save a worthwhile period. Cherished emotions.

For the vast majority of ordinary people who are struggling to survive and work hard to improve their lives, tolerance and kindness are really a luxury.

Holding Li Xuan's hand, Jin Shang comforted and said:

"Stop worrying about these terrible things. What do you want to eat tonight?"

"Steamed Sea Bass."

"what?"

After laughing a few times, Jin Shang couldn't help but feel helpless.

Jin Shang is very good at making a few side dishes, but killing, washing, and cooking fish is actually quite troublesome, and it is easy to get the smell all over his body.

If you want to eat it, Jin Shang usually buys it directly, kills it and cleans it on site, and just cooks it when you come back.

It’s already this time, where can I do it?
After hesitating for a moment, Jin Shang suggested:
"Then let's go out to eat and go shopping."

"Houhai?"

"can."

The bar street over there is very lively, but it’s not just a place for drinking, dancing and having fun, there are many good places worth seeing.

I have long been tired of seeing so many crappy so-called scenic spots and historic sites. The food street is not a good place to hang out. Most of them are dishes customized for foreign tourists. They are just expensive. The key is that Jin Shang still doesn't think they taste good.

As a native of western Beijing, Jin Shang would not wander around in that kind of place if he had nothing to do. However, if his girlfriend wanted to go, there was no harm in taking a stroll.

After changing into casual clothes, Jin Shang drove Li Xuan all the way to the inner ring road.Fortunately, at this time, it was not particularly crowded, and we arrived in more than 30 minutes.

Since work has become busier and busier, the two of them have spent less time hanging out together.I do have time on weekends, and I tend to stay at home to recuperate, and go back to my hometown to see my mother and grandmother from time to time.

Judging from the level of a semi-professional singer-songwriter, most of the resident singers in Houhai Bar are average, but those who can survive still have some real ability.

The Zhendian band formed by An Ziwen and others is said to have been active nearby recently, but Jin Shang and Li Xuan did not see them tonight.

After a hearty meal, the two of them were satisfied and strolled along the neon-lit pedestrian street. They were surrounded by similar tourists, and there were even some blond and blue-eyed foreigners talking in foreign languages ​​with different accents.

Different from Beijing West, which is dominated by migrant workers, the flavor of an international metropolis here is stronger. Tourists from all over the world, in addition to visiting palaces, royal gardens and the Great Wall, also like to come here at night to witness the famous scene where all corners of the world meet. .

Surprisingly, Jin Shang saw a band composed by several foreigners in a bar mainly catering to foreign guests in the embassy area, singing "City Of Stars", a single released by Jin Shang that was not well received in China.

"This song of yours makes flowers blossom inside the wall and fragrant outside the wall."

Li Xuan, who was in a much better mood, and Jin Shang found a relatively remote booth, ordered a few glasses of water, and chatted while resting.

I found this one because it wasn't too noisy inside and I could hear people speaking softly.

"Jazz is a music form that pays great attention to improvisation, and it is very different from the preferences of Chinese people. It has a fixed group of fans, but it is not optimistic to say how popular it is."

From the beginning, Jin Shang understood that this type of black music based on blues and ragtime had too complex and random rhythms, and the chords and timbres were too different from traditional folk music. It was too difficult to popularize it. .

There are classics, but they are not the future direction.
