Confessions of a Salesman

Chapter 1321 Diverging Opinions
Huang Junying suddenly said excitedly: "Yeah, it's not easy for everyone. Now no one can rely on martial arts to make a living! In the past, during Chinese New Year holidays, shop openings, weddings and funerals, birthday wishes, people would invite us over Lively, lively! But people nowadays, how can they spend this money! We don’t even know the meaning of our real lion dance, so what’s the point of our dancing? Just like this, fewer and fewer people are learning slowly No, we don't have any students to teach anymore, I now have two formal apprentices, one is my own son!
We have to live too!If you teach someone self-defense, they are still willing to learn, but if you teach a lion dance, who is willing to learn?What is the use of learning?This craft is really going to be lost!Even my own son is reluctant to learn it. If I hadn't forced him to learn it, he probably wouldn't even be able to do it now!It's gone, there's no way! "

I said very understandingly: "It's human nature, understandable! How can people have any hobbies when they can't guarantee their own living conditions? A little bit of reward! Lion dance can’t get higher grades, and can’t support the family, so I don’t know what to learn! After a hard dance, I don’t even know who danced it or what it looks like. Concept, how could they accept it! So, I wanted to publicize it to you first, so that the municipal and provincial committees and even the National Cultural Propaganda Department can pay attention to it. Now that lion dance is recognized as an intangible cultural heritage, then We should come up with some policies to protect this cultural heritage, and we can’t just let it be lost like this!”

Huang Junying said gratefully: "That's great! We are not educated people. We haven't studied for a few days, but we are anxious and don't know what to do? It would be the best if you can help us! We really have nothing to repay you!"

Xiao Hei shook his head and said: "We have already said, no reward! We don't want anything, as long as you continue to pass on this craft! We may not be able to help you, but we will do our best !” Then looked at me.

I curled my lips and said, "What do you think I am doing? I don't know how much I can help them! Some things can't be solved with money! This time let these reporters make a documentary first, and you tell all your sufferings , after the broadcast, if the response is good, the relevant departments will pay attention to it, and ask them to set up some awards for you. There will be a certain number of places, and you can be recommended to middle schools and universities! I will hold a dance for you every year For the lion competition, set the bonus higher! The more people who participate, the more people will learn your lion dance skills, and your team will continue to grow!"

Huang Junying held my hand and said, "You are simply a living Bodhisattva! You are our savior! But we ask you to pay every year, how can we feel sorry for it?"

I smiled and said, "That's not easy! When you have cultivated one or two stars, just make an advertisement for us, make a movie or something! My brother has a film and television company, just cooperate with him." ! In addition, I have another request, you must satisfy me!"

Huang Junying asked cautiously: "What request, if it's too much, I'd rather not have your help!"

I said seriously: "It's too much! You have to teach me the set of things you just dealt with me! Let me say it first, I am stupid, no matter how long it takes, you need to teach me, I will not It's too much to ask, just the few tricks just now!"

Huang Junying finally showed a smile and said: "This is easy, I promise you, but I am curious, there is such a powerful person beside you, why do you want me to teach you?"

I looked at Xiao Hei with disdain and said: "He knows a hammer! He can fight by himself, let him teach others, how can he know? Otherwise, his boxing gym will not be ruined soon!"

Huang Junying nodded and said: "This is really true. He can fight, but he may not be able to speak! However, this brother's kung fu is really too high. I have never seen such a good person in my life! My master Huang Qimo, that is also the person who fought against Ye Wen. No one from all over the world is his opponent, but after confronting this brother that day, he shook his head and said, "I have to live and learn! If you don't mind, you can May I ask, where is your apprenticeship?"

Xiao Hei replied very politely: "I really have never worshiped any master, and my moves are shameful!"

I knew that it was difficult for Xiao Hei to tell him that his kung fu was honed by groping among the dead, so I took his words and boasted: "He, he has dug coal in Xishan and seen ghosts in Dongshan. It's the Yangtze River and the Yellow River that drank water, and kissed firecrackers and landmines!"

After hearing this, Huang Junying was stunned for a while, not wanting to understand, so she sighed and said, "This brother has gone through so much, no wonder he is so powerful!"

After that, he pulled us over and introduced: "These two are my juniors, this one is Liang Shaowei, and this one is Wu Yanzu!"

I laughed and said, "What a handsome guy you are in this town!"

Then, Huang Junying let us into the room. I introduced Lu Yuchen to them and told them that this is the big reporter I invited back to the province. , stood up immediately, respectfully.

Lu Yuchen hurriedly said: "Everyone, don't be so nervous. I'm just making a documentary to record your real life. Don't act it out on purpose. You will be the same as usual, don't worry about me!"

Huang Junying straightened her clothes and said, "I am the acting mayor of our town. The old town has passed away. The new mayor will not be determined until after this election!"

His junior brother Liang Shaowei said carelessly: "What else should I choose? It must be you, senior brother!"

Huang Junying hurriedly waved his hands and said, "Junior brother, don't talk nonsense! This is an open election, how can you be sure?"

Another junior brother Wu Yanzu followed up and said: "It should be you, senior brother! How much you have done for our town! Who else can it be if it is not you? These people, seeing that other towns are getting rich, just Our town is still the same, except for the young people who are working part-time, if it weren't for you, you opened this martial arts gym and opened a processing factory, and everyone in the town would be gone!"

Huang Junying sighed and said: "This town of ours is neither backed by mountains nor water! There is no way! We must find a way to keep the people in the town!"

Xiao Hei asked in bewilderment: "Isn't Guangdong Province quite rich? Why is it so difficult for you to talk about it?"

I explained to Xiao Hei: "There are poor towns in any region. This is closely related to geographical location, human resources, and local policies! Population density determines the consumption power of this area, and consumption power will promote the local economy. Development! Let’s put it this way, if there is no one in a bustling city, it will soon become a desert, and as long as there are people, a desert will gradually become a bustling city!”

Huang Junying immediately asked me: "Then tell me, how can we attract people back?"

I replied casually: "That's easy! As long as you can let them earn the same money as outside, who would like to wander outside and not go home?"

Huang Junying said awkwardly: "But I don't have the ability!"

I said confidently: "Then we are here? Naturally, we can change the current situation!"

Huang Junying rubbed her fists and said, "Okay, I'll just wait for your words! Tell me, what do you want us to do?"

I carefully explained: "I have observed your town, it is less than 30 kilometers away from Shenzhen, the land price in Shenzhen is so expensive now, many factories have begun to move out! You can build an empty factory first, and then go to Shenzhen to put up advertisements , introduce some preferential policies to attract companies to come and rent your factory. As long as a company comes over, not only will you pay your rent, but the workers in the factory will spend money in your town, driving the town's economy!
Secondly, through this documentary, you can increase the popularity of your town, the hometown of martial arts, the hometown of Huang Feihong, the home of Ip Man's growth, these names can be added, and Huang Zhenzi can also be said to be Huang Feihong or How many generations of Ip Man's disciples put out a few more lion heads and said, these lion heads were used by Huang Feihong in the lion fight back then. Once you become famous, people will naturally come to visit and travel, so you China's tourism industry is booming!

In the end, you still have to ask the higher authorities for policies, only babies who can cry will be fed!Now that you are already so poor, you must have policies and funds, so that the city can help you get rid of poverty and become rich! "

Before I could finish speaking, Huang Junying shook her head and said, "You can't even say that!"

I said ah, and I was dumbfounded all of a sudden. I said these are all real ways to get rich, but he denied them all to me.

Huang Junying said: "First, our land is all agricultural land. We have built a factory building. What do we eat? Once the factory building is completed, there must be pollution in our place. Why can't they continue to work in the urban area? It's not because The rent has been rising, but because they are not up to environmental protection standards, they think that no one will take care of the rural areas, just pay some money, and discharge sewage casually! That's not acceptable!
Second, our place is neither Huang Feihong's hometown nor Ip Man's growing up home. Huang Feihong's hometown is hundreds of kilometers away from us. We are not from the same country. As for Ip Man, he is still very young He went to Hong Kong with his father, and never grew up here!Not our people either!In addition, what I know is that Huang Feihong doesn't know martial arts at all, let alone lion dance, he is just a doctor!It's even more impossible for me to be his disciple. I have a master, and I can't bully my master and destroy my ancestors!
Third, it is not easy for the government to give us poverty alleviation funds every year, and we don’t want to be a poor county, which will hinder the county!We haven't reached the stage of government bailouts yet!We can feed ourselves! "

I was speechless after listening to it, and said with some displeasure: "Why are you so brainless? Why can't you build factories on farmland? You can just say that these are greenhouses, and they are experimental bases for cultivating fruits and vegetables. After the construction is completed, who cares about you? As for the pollution, you can manage it! If you rent your factory, you will not be allowed to discharge sewage. If they want to discharge sewage, they will have to rectify and pay! !

As for whether it was Huang Feihong's hometown, who would really check it out?Anyway, it’s all Foshan, so you can just say it vaguely!Whether he really knows how to dance a lion, whether he knows martial arts, who cares about that!Anyway, that's how it's played in the movie. What's wrong with having one more national hero?Ye Wen is the same, no matter where he grew up!Just say so!My purpose is to let people know about your place, let people know that you are the hometown of martial arts, just like Shaolin Temple, you don’t really think that all the monks in Shaolin Temple are invulnerable, right?You are famous, and the fake has become real!
Also, in this world, people laugh at the poor and not at the prostitutes. Having money is the last word. When you have money, you can help the city and county as you want?You are so poor now, if you don’t ask for money, you have a high level of awareness, so don’t let them hold you back?Without economic output value, it is always a drag!Why are you so pedantic? "

Huang Junying was fine, but Xiao Hei couldn't listen anymore, and began to reprimand me: "We martial arts practitioners must not only have martial virtues, but also have integrity. Naturally, we can't run around like you businessmen. Don't bring your dirty methods here to pollute the environment, I still think this is a piece of pure land!"

I said dissatisfiedly: "Can you speak human words! Who am I for? Not for them! All human civilization is built on a material basis! Empty talk harms the country, do you understand? What's the point? I'm starving to death, and no one will say you are arrogant, they will only call you stupid! Which of these methods I said violates the law? How can things that are allowed by the country be so embarrassing in your mouths? This is called flexibility! If you tell a woman, I want to sleep with you, she must think you are a hooligan, and if you say you want to watch the sunrise with her, she will think you are a poet! The way of saying is different, but the way of doing it is the same !"

Lu Yuchen couldn't stand it anymore, and hurriedly persuaded: "They haven't said anything yet, you guys started arguing first! Stop arguing, no matter how much you talk, you still have to listen to the owner's opinion!"

I thought about it too, but I just felt angry and said bluntly: "As for the solution, I will help you think about it. You can decide what to do by yourself? If you want to continue to suffer from poverty, and see young people continue to lose out, you will eventually become It’s an old people’s village, then you should keep your chastity archway! If you want to improve the economy here, put down your face and do something practical for your town, don’t clean up those useless ones! I finally know your place Why can't I get rich anymore, it's extremely pedantic!"
