I really don't want to fight with gods

Chapter 983

Brother Jie once said that Xiaoqiang and I were fellow travelers.

Outstanding people can always achieve the same goal by different routes.

It is good for ordinary people to take care of themselves well, but it is not a mediocre life to be able to put the thoughts of family, country and world in their hearts.

But after possessing the talent, ability and status beyond ordinary people, if you only focus on eating, drinking and enjoying yourself, you will never be able to embark on the path of excellence.

At that time, Jing Xiaoqiang was indeed similar to Brother Jie. In the era when foreign exchange was extremely scarce, he traveled overseas to obtain funds.

Being able to do this consciously is already fundamentally different from the dick who only wanted to be a rent collector in Shanghai.

But just like Jie Ge, he gradually began to focus on caring for more people.

Jing Xiaoqiang can't help but rely on the singing and dancing center to transform the private theater that was originally only for himself into a spiritual supply station that is meaningful to more people.

Old man Gong was very happy, and went to the izakaya opposite with Jing Xiaoqiang for supper when he came out of the theater.

But Jing Xiaoqiang still sent Mi Gao to the airport first.

Private business jets are indeed convenient, even if they have to be scheduled to take off at the terminal, but at least the time can be completely controlled by themselves.

Mi Gao heard that Nakamori had booked a plane, and complained that you just took my plane for use, and I went to buy a 747...

It doesn't mean that you use me to eliminate goods at all, it's just what the family spends the unjust money on.

That's right, Mi Gao, who always likes to waste money, has this kind of consciousness. After asking, he found out that he seems to like buying old furniture to decorate his old house.

I heard that it was Uncle Cheng who instilled this attitude in him. Daqiang always calls you Uncle Mi Gao, so why waste money, I'll just take it here.

It can also be regarded as a gathering of prodigal sons.

So Mi Gao had to return to North America when he came to the concert to deal with the matter: "After this year's contract is over, I will re-sign the agency contract next year. We sign together and never want to go back to the concert alone like this. I want to stay in Shanghai for a long time." settle down!"

Jing Xiaoqiang is a fan of money: "Isn't it a waste for us to hold a concert together? You can make money in the first half of the year and I in the second half of the year!"

Mi Gao was even more displeased: "Then we will have even less time together. I'll go and see the apartment in Xinxiang first. Come here soon..."

The old man could understand some English, and looked sideways quietly, probably trying to figure out the real relationship between the two.

It's hard to send the mother away.

After sitting in the izakaya, Jing Xiaoqiang explained to the old man: "Lonely, in fact, each of us is lonely. A genius like him is even more lonely in his heart. It is very happy to meet fellow travelers, and he can live a happier life."

Old man Gong made it clear: "Fortunately, I have always had many partners, but some people don't understand why I do this. I think life is not about living, but how you should live."

Jing Xiaoqiang squinted: "It's still very difficult to survive. You said you were a trade union secretary?"

Speaking of this, it resonates even more: "Yes, it was at that stage that I finally understood the complexity and cruelty of this world. Only the kindness and beauty we portray can help everyone feel better in this cold world. Well live on..."

Jing Xiaoqiang laughed: "Yes, only when you are young, even the smallest things feel like the end of the world. You will not realize until you are 50 or [-] that life is always the end of the world."

The old man wiped his gray hair vigorously: "Yes, yes, that's why we need to help everyone find the innocence and beauty of childhood, so that we can face the doomsday with more strength."

Jing Xiaoqiang actually laughed at the animation god: "But you can't dedicate the best animation every day, music is fine, and an animation workshop composed of a large number of computers is also fine."

The old man Gong was at a loss for words, picked up his wine glass and muttered: "I don't think so, the charm of hand-painting will always be irreplaceable by computers..."

Jing Xiaoqiang did not argue: "Let's work hard on our own, but according to our Chinese theory of the mean, it may be the best direction in the future not to use such a firm and resolute two paths, and learn from each other's strengths to complement each other's weaknesses."

The old man Gong is notoriously stubborn, he only mutters, and smokes one after another, which makes Jing Xiaoqiang smell like smoke all over his body, and when he returns home in the middle of the night, Lu Xi presses him to take a bubble bath.

But the next morning, Cheng Yuling was sent to the R&D center, and Jing Xiaoqiang drove the old man to visit the Shanghai Animation Film Studio.

Speaking of it, it wasn't that Jun Miyazaki asked Jing Xiaoqiang to forget that there is such a great master in Shanghai.

In his previous life, he was also a graduate of the Drama Academy. After graduation, several major film studios in the country were the main destinations for job hunting.

For example, even An Ning has to work as an employee at the Shanghai Film Factory, which is already considered a very awesome place.

A graduate of matte painting who doesn't know how to use computers, he really considered applying for a job at Shanghai Animation Film Factory.

This is another standard case of being in a daze for love at a young age.

It can be said that in the past years, Shanghai Meiying Factory contracted all the domestic animation blockbusters in memory!
From "Havoc in Heaven", "The Book of Heaven", "Avanti", "Nezha Trouble the Sea" and other masterpieces to "Black Cat Sheriff", "Gourd Baby", "Shook and Beta", "Sloppy" King" these TV cartoons.

They are all masterpieces of Shanghai Film Studio. In fact, with Jing Xiaoqiang's level, there is a high probability that he won't be able to get in.

And from what the old man Gong said, even in the eyes of animation masters like them, the Shanghai Meiying Factory is as sacred as the Bodhidharma Academy.

Very respectable.

Because since the Anti-Japanese War period, animated feature films such as Princess Iron Fan have been created here, using the story of slaying demons and demons to convey the determination to resist aggression.

After being brought back to the country as a trophy by the invading army and publicized, it actually drove the development of the domestic animation industry in Jiaopen.

In the 40s, those who were accustomed to watching American "Tom and Jerry" and "Mickey Mouse Donald Duck" were very surprised. This kind of seven or eight 10-minute feature film is far better than Disney's kind of funny gimmicks in terms of narrative. Comedy short.

Just being able to express ideas in cartoons has already beaten that kind of clown animation.

Including this kind of animated feature film that the old man Gong has been insisting on now, the root influences are all there.

And his arch-rival Tezuka started his career in animation after watching "Princess Iron Fan" when he was a child. After becoming famous, he was still an active promoter of the animation industry in the two countries in the 80s.

Shanghai Fine Film Studio is also the first in China to participate in international film festivals, and it still stands proudly at the forefront of the rare world that is definitely not behind.

It was also during the chat on the way that Jing Xiaoqiang heard from Old Man Gong that he had actually been to China a few years ago, when he first made a well-grossing animated feature film, and chose to visit China as a reward for his reward.

The old man couldn't leave his cigarette: "I'm very disappointed, I haven't been here since then, until I saw you..."

Jing Xiaoqiang: "What about me? I have never had anything to do with them."

The old man Gong slowly described in the smoke: "Ji Shirang came back and talked about a Chinese guy who wanted to cooperate with us in cartoons, musicals, and games. My first reaction was that you don't need to come to Jiaopen to cooperate with us. The Shanghai Fine Arts Film Studio has both profound tradition and rich experience, that is the best, and they still want to make money so much, you should leave the opportunity to make money to them.”

Jing Xiaoqiang blinked, yes, from a series of cartoons such as Havoc in Tiangong and Nine-colored Deer, Shanghai Film Studio has unparalleled creativity and art skills, he has forgotten.

So this year, he gradually started CG production in the post-production of computer animation, and never thought of bringing it. In fact, he has not had time to transform into the animation industry, and he has not finished several movies in his hand.

But what the old man Gong said later is the key point: "But after being rejected by me, you still want to lead the Asian film industry to counterattack the North American market. I thought it must include the Shanghai Film Studio, or it made me watch it again." I came to that ambitious China, that’s why I wanted to visit you, and I was attracted by your music and animation production. I really thought that you represented this country and wanted to plant the red flag in North America again..."

Jing Xiaoqiang stared at the co-driver, the gray old man, in astonishment, are you a woman with red dreams in mind? !

The old man took a few puffs of cigarettes and resented: "The last time we came to China, we just came to see the sacred places in my mind. It was pure tourism, but what we saw was not only backwardness, but also mercenary... Our only The one I visited was the Meiying Studio, but no matter how we communicated about animation art, the factory only cared about how we were paid on a piece-by-piece basis and how to make money for the animators, so since then, we were disappointed and never planned to come here again.”

Jing Xiaoqiang asked if it was around 85, and laughed loudly: "You have a goddess in your heart, right? I finally met her, and I happened to see her shaving her legs... Brother, no matter how beautiful a girl is, she also needs to urinate and urinate. Nose hair, don't substitute the beautiful fairy like you who do animation into it."

The old man Gong was still brooding: "They have created so many unparalleled and beautiful works, but they only care about how much money they make, just like everyone in your country now only cares about money..."

Jing Xiaoqiang slowly put away his smile: "Mr. Miyazaki Jun, I don't know if you have heard this Chinese allusion, why don't you eat minced meat?"

In fact, he didn't quite agree with some of Lao Gong's views, but they were all in their fifties, and it was normal for each to have their own views, so there was no need to persuade them.

But this must be explained: "The people all over the world suffer from starvation, and the emperor actually asks the people around him why they don't eat meat. Do you understand what I mean?"

Thanks to the help of a few Jiaopen girls, Jing Xiaoqiang's Japanese became more and more fluent: "How many people in your animation company need a labor union to fight for rights? It's just an animation industry, and you can have a line dispute with Mr. Tezuka. In a big country with a population of one billion, can you imagine how many disputes there are from top to bottom? You should know the story of Tongtian Tower. In the early stage of the country, it was all carried by spiritual strength, and if you straighten out your thinking, you must first let everyone have enough food and clothing to live a good life."

"Including the point you said before, the point is not to survive, but how to live. In my opinion, this is a bit of a waste of meat. What we advocate is to survive first, and then talk about how to live."

"So the stage you come to see is that the whole country is poor and crazy, with no money, and even the country can't afford to produce art animations that only produce art and don't care about benefits. You need to find your own way. I say this and I keep asking you for advice. The leader of the factory who is paid by the piece is a good person, instead of just holding on to face and ignoring the life and death of the people below, why not eat minced meat..."

"It's a bit philistine to look at money, but look at the old buildings outside and the construction sites that are being built everywhere. This country is also arguing. To preserve the old historical traces and the traditional way of life, we want poetry and civilization. Don't be so busy and busy, but the reality is changing little by little..."

"These small changes are like the wanton growth of all things... There is a poem that says that dust and dawn rise, rivers converge into rivers, and nameless hills rise into peaks. Time never speaks, but it answers all questions unconsciously. When you When you find that they seem to have changed, the time has actually come, and it is unstoppable."

　In fact, the fingers of the old man who came from a wealthy family were frozen while holding a cigarette.

　　With his current fame and status, no one in Jiaopen might dare to talk to him so unceremoniously.

　　Still a young man in his early twenties.
