rebirth of change

Coming out of the big inner room, Chen Kangjie's mind was in a daze, and what Zhao Zhibang said at the end appeared over and over again.

What Zhao Zhibang said unexpectedly, the more Chen Kangjie thought about it, the more meaningful it became, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that the content was rich.After two lifetimes of understanding, he must admit that what Zhao Zhibang said is correct, let alone the law, a word from the top leader may affect people of all ethnic groups in the country.Even if this sentence may not have any practical significance, there will still be many people who organize studies and try their best to dig out the profound meaning from a simple and ordinary sentence. Possible to cash in.

What is good at the top will be worse at the bottom.Such a sentence does not only exist in the ancient society under the rule of feudal emperors, but in today's highly civilized society, in our actual system, it still does not break away.Sometimes, there is nothing good at the top, and the people below will try their best to create it.

Politics is everywhere.If you don't like a certain writer, you don't have to read his book, he can't do anything to you.If you don’t like a certain entrepreneur, you can also completely avoid it, break away from all relations with him, and just look for alternative corporate products. If you don’t like a certain artist, you can treat his works as nothing, and he will take you No problem, even if you don't like a certain teacher, you can just oblige and disobey, or even transfer to another class or school.However, living in a country, the leader of this country, whether you like it or not, will inevitably be affected by the policies he promotes. The difference is active and passive.Even in the so-called Western democracies, even though you did not support that leader when you voted, as long as he is elected, the economic policies, cultural policies, medical insurance policies, education policies, and tax policies he promotes are all It's about everyone, and those who don't vote for him can't avoid it.

But Chen Kangjie thought again, what does this have to do with me?Do I have the arrogant thought of changing the whole country and the world? That is the business of their politicians. I just think about myself, but do my best to help some people.

It's just that, thinking so, for a while later, this question kept lingering in his mind.Although he attended a lot of activities in the past two days and met Zhao Zhibang several times, the two of them didn't have much communication in that kind of public place. Instead, they had a good dinner and chat with Jackie Chan.

The meeting with Jackie Chan was initiated by him. Since the two of them have confirmed their film cooperation relationship, Chen Kangjie can no longer decline like before.

The place where the two met was in a restaurant called Jiangnanyuan. This restaurant was not the kind that opened its doors to the outside world, but opened in the depths of a hidden alley.Red walls and green tiles, quaint, the simple courtyard has been carefully decorated, it looks elegant and generous, noble and dignified, with a feeling of returning to basics.

Sitting in the private room named Shuiyunjian, looking out through the hollow carved wooden window, the small fish pond in the courtyard is shimmering under the setting sun, and several pomegranate trees beside the pond are lush and lush.Several big red carps swim happily under the reflection of the pomegranate tree.The whole courtyard seemed very quiet, as if it was not located in the middle of the densely populated metropolis, the capital, but in a quiet countryside.

"Brother, how did you know such a good place?" Chen Kangjie took a sip of the yellow-orange tea in front of him, and praised.

"I came to the capital to participate in an event the year before last. A friend from the capital brought me here. Maybe because I was still a little famous, the boss gave me a card. Treating you to dinner this time, I thought I couldn't go to those big crowds. I will bring you here." Jackie Chan leaned on the back of the wooden chair, following Chen Kangjie's gaze to appreciate the surrounding scenery and objects, "It is said that this courtyard used to be the residence of a certain first-rank official, and it used to be a little old. , now that it’s been repaired, it’s still interesting.”

"You seem to like collecting ancient buildings, don't you?" Chen Kangjie looked away from the window, crossed his hands in front of him, and asked.

"Hehe, I just started this hobby. I didn't expect you to know it! Actually, I can't talk about collecting. I just like some classic things. It's a pity to see many ancient buildings being demolished without thinking. After all, this is our A cultural embodiment of the building should be preserved, so if I think it is possible, I will consider whether I can buy it. I never thought about making money from these buildings. Maybe one day, the government will pay attention to it, and I will consider donating it.” Jackie Chan said indifferently .

Jackie Chan was able to win the favor of Chen Kangjie and was willing to work together. Apart from his rich performance foundation, his family and country feelings are also what Chen Kangjie appreciates very much.As the saying goes, things of a feather flock together, and people are divided into groups.Chen Kangjie felt that he was still a bit out of tune with the kind of people who were only after fame and fortune.Although he can't ask others to be like him, he can choose who to get closer to.

When two people with similar ideas are together, it is easier to resonate and cherish each other for life.It will also be much more enjoyable to work with.

Chen Kangjie also has several complete courtyard houses in the capital. Although he lives by himself or locks them up now, he may also consider donating them to the society one day.It's just that the current atmosphere is not suitable. If it is released by itself, it may not be long before it will be razed to the ground, and then high-rise buildings without new ideas will be built on the basis of it.This is not to say that Chen Kangjie thinks high-rise buildings are bad, but that demolition and new construction should be done in moderation, and should not be at the cost of unscrupulously destroying the culture we rely on to inherit.

As Jackie Chan said, those ancient buildings are actually a part of our culture.A city, if its historical and cultural expressions are gone, then the city will appear without spirit and taste. No matter how prosperous the high-rise buildings are, it is actually difficult to conceal the sorrow of the cultural desert.In the 70s and 20s, our damage to our own history and culture was serious enough. If we don’t brake properly, in another [-] years, we will have to search for past memories and nostalgia bluntly in history books.This is actually very irresponsible for our descendants, because we may still remember something, and when they grow up, they may only feel that we are no different from other countries in the neon lights.

"So are you gaining a lot now?" Chen Kangjie asked.

"I have harvested two places, one in Huainan and the other in Lingnan. Both compounds have a history of more than 300 years. One was built in the late Ming Dynasty and the other in the early Qing Dynasty. The two buildings have different architectural styles, but they are relatively It’s exquisite. When I wanted to buy it, the local government didn’t plan to sell it, but they didn’t feel embarrassed until I doubled the price, and they finally sold it to me.” When he said this, Jackie Chan had a look on his face. A self-deprecating wry smile.

"For the sake of inviting me to dinner today, if you come across such good things in the future, you can recommend some of them to me. If it's suitable, I'll buy a few and leave them for my descendants, haha."

"This is what you said. You live in the mainland all year round. It should be easier for you to come out and buy it than me. Moreover, your funds are stronger than mine, so you will be more handy. In order to cooperate with you this time, I am tightening my pants now." live with the belt."

"Haha." Chen Kangjie laughed, "Is it that miserable? Then I'll pay for it when I go out later. Don't spend all the money on the plane ticket back to Hong Kong."

After making a joke, Chen Kangjie changed the topic to the topic of today's meeting.

Chen Kangjie knew why Jackie Chan made an appointment with him today, he didn't take the initiative to start the conversation because he wanted to take care of himself, now that it was involved, Chen Kangjie simply said it first.

"Brother, how are you getting ready?"

"Everything is ready, just waiting for your great director's order to make arrangements. I will take out all the schedules from this year to the middle of next year. If you point to the east, I will never go west." Jackie Chan became excited .

"Don't make it so serious, we are partners, I'm not your superior, ha ha." That said, but when it comes to work, Chen Kangjie still showed his true qualities as a director, "The shooting location of this film I plan to choose the northern part of Pakistan Railway, where the terrain is more suitable. I originally wanted to choose a country in Eastern Europe, but I thought that it would easily remind people of the bombing of the embassy in the southern country, so I made adjustments. If you If you have time to spare, let’s go over there to investigate first.”

"But I have never dealt with Pakistani officials. Our film would not have been possible without the cooperation of local officials and even the military." Jackie Chan seemed a little embarrassed.

"You don't need to think too much about this. You go, and the officials over there will cooperate with you. At that time, Feiyang Entertainment will also send people to go with you. Ten days ago, Feiyang Entertainment passed the script to me to read. Yes, after the location is selected, they will arrange for people from Miramax to go to the front station. At that time, I will send you a list that needs attention. Of course, if there is something that needs to be changed, you can also propose your own Opinion. When the time comes, people from Feiyang Entertainment will be responsible for the layout of the venue and the preparation of props. There are many extras in the local area. You can pay more attention to this. I have already appointed Jedika as the director of this movie. Assistant director, you should be responsible for the preliminary work together. If possible, I will invite Schwarzenegger to play the big villain, but I haven’t talked to him yet. I will contact him in the next two days..." Chen Kangjie remained calm Said.

Ouyang Zhenhua just went to Pakistan Railway not long ago, and the relationship with the government has been opened up without any problems.In other aspects, Chen Kangjie also made some appropriate arrangements. This time Liu Deyi did not come to the capital together, partly because he wanted to go to Hong Kong to implement Chen Kangjie's ideas.Chen Kangjie is not the kind of person who likes to fight unprepared battles. When he has an idea, he will let the people below prepare and implement it in advance.
