Back to 80: My literary life.

Chapter 627 Chapter 626 The ultimate goal of reading all books is to read about ourselves
After Liang Ling finished speaking, the boy who had been a little aggressive just now fell silent.

The girl ignored him and looked at Fang Minghua: "Teacher Minghua, do you think I am right?"

"It was a very exciting speech, even more exciting than what I was going to say." Fang Minghua said with a smile.

Bang bang bang.
I don't know where the applause came from, and then it gradually spread and finally echoed throughout the entire venue.

Whether you like the movie that was just released or not, the girl's words did make many viewers suddenly enlightened and re-examine the movie from a new perspective.

Liang Ling walked off the stage happily and asked for autographs from Fang Minghua and Stephen Chow before leaving.

When she returned to her seat, she saw her boyfriend Zhang Xu giving her a thumbs up: "Liang Ling, what you just said was really good, you know? I was the first one to lead the applause!"

"Really? Yeah, I'm very happy now!"

On the stage, Fang Minghua took the microphone from the host and spoke to the audience.

"Just now this boy raised his doubts, and of course, this girl named Liang Ling answered them very well."

"What I want to say is that any literary work, whether novels, poems, essays, scripts or even movies and TV shows, can really move us and make us remember it because it is something in these works that touches our hearts."

"We will see our own shadows in them, or see the self we long for. While we are reading other people's stories and lamenting their fate, we are also looking for ourselves. The ultimate goal of reading all the books, movies and TV shows is to read about ourselves. Thank you."

There was warm applause from the audience again.

The film was shown in the Tsinghua University Auditorium the next night. Compared with YNU students, Tsinghua students were much more reserved, but more people watched the film than YNU students.

In addition to our school, students from Renmin University, Beijing Language and Culture University and other universities also rushed to the event. Tickets had already been sold out, and the organizer had to temporarily sell some unreserved tickets to meet the needs of the audience.

After the screening, the main creative staff and the audience continued to interact. This time there were no sharp questions like in the Yanda University dining hall, but both sides still had a lively exchange on the film.

After the two premieres, Guangming Daily highlighted the performance at Yanda in its supplement, calling it "the first premiere in the mainland, which set a precedent for the promotion and distribution of mainland film and television."

It also focused on reporting the girl named Liang Ling and Fang Minghua's last words.

"Life is a constant dislocation,"

"The ultimate goal of reading all the books is to read ourselves." These philosophical words increase the audience's curiosity to watch this movie.

Even CCTV reprinted this news, which made the creative team of "A Chinese Odyssey" very happy.

It’s free advertising, and it’s a golden signboard.

These days, whose news can be more authoritative than CCTV?
After the premiere at Yanda University, Song Tangtang invited everyone to eat hotpot at Donghuamen Night Market in the evening. They would be flying to Shanghai the next day, so everyone should relax.

Of course it is also a celebration.

From the two-day premiere and the reviews in the newspapers, it felt pretty good.

The roadshow got off to a great start.

With the help of this favorable trend, the "A Chinese Odyssey" roadshow team toured Shanghai, Nanjing, Wuhan, and the Flower City in one go, with the last stop being Xijing, where the entire tour ended successfully.

The first public release of the film is scheduled for May 1st.

It’s Labor Day, so of course there is a holiday. Even model workers like Song Tangtang rest at home and bring their two children back home.

However, Song Tangtang seemed to be distracted. She loved telling stories to her two children the most, but she seemed absent-minded.

The story of "Sima Guang smashes the jar" was repeated several times, "Sima Guang smashes the jar." This made my daughter Ruirui very dissatisfied, and she pouted and said:

"Mom, you are wrong. The teacher said it was Sima Guang who broke the jar!"

"Yes, yes, it was Sima Gang who broke the jar."

"You're wrong. It was Sima Guang who broke the jar!" the daughter corrected seriously.

"Yeah, Sima Guang smashed it all." Song Tangtang said casually, not knowing what she was thinking. This made the two children even more dissatisfied. Ruirui immediately shouted at Fang Minghua, who was sitting on a recliner in the yard drinking tea and humming a song, "Dad and Mom didn't tell stories seriously today. They kept making mistakes!"

Fang Minghua had no choice but to stand up from the recliner and walk into the living room: "What's going on?"

"No, nothing." Song Tangtang hesitated and said, "Minghua, tell the two kids that I need to go out for a while."

After saying that, she put down the book, put on her high heels, hurried out of the living room, and walked towards the garage.

"Tangtang, where are you going?" Fang Minghua asked quickly.

"I'll tell you when I get back!"

Listening to the sound of the car engine, Fang Minghua shook his head and had to sit on the sofa and pick up the book to read to the two children.

"During the Song Dynasty, there was a boy named Sima Guang. He was very smart since he was young. One time, Sima Guang and his friends were playing in the backyard."

Song Tangtang was out for a short time. Fang Minghua had just told two stories from the book when she heard the sound of a car outside the yard. A few minutes later, she saw her hurried in.

"Hey, Tangtang, where have you been?" Fang Minghua asked.

"I'll tell you later." After saying that, Song Tangtang looked at the two kids beside him again.

Fang Minghua immediately understood, told the children another story, and let them play by themselves.

Watching the two children playing with the German bean sprouts in the yard, Fang Minghua lowered his voice and asked Song Tangtang: "Where on earth have you been?"

"look!"

Song Tangtang took out two pieces of paper from her bag. Fang Minghua took a closer look and realized they were movie tickets!

"What? Going to the movies tonight? What good movies are showing recently?" he asked casually.

"Did you forget? A Chinese Odyssey is released today!"

"Oh my god..." Fang Minghua slapped his head and said, "How many times have you watched the roadshow? Are you still not satisfied?"

"That's different. What I want to see now is whether the attendance rate of ordinary cinemas is high and whether they are popular." Song Tangtang said.

"There's no need. You can't just wait for the final result? I'm not going anyway." Fang Minghua refused.

Before this era came, "A Chinese Odyssey" was later re-screened. Those who knew about this movie through pirated discs and videos on the Internet walked into the cinema saying, "I owed Stephen Chow a ticket."

Fang Minghua also paid 30 dollars to watch a show, even though he had watched the disc many times.

But now, there is no need!

I don’t owe anyone tickets!

"Husband," Song Tangtang's voice became tender again, causing the two children outside to look at their mother.

"Okay, okay, we are an old couple and we won't let the children laugh at us." Fang Minghua replied quickly.

"Okay, let's go and watch it together. What about the two kids? We can't bring them in to watch it, right? It's not suitable."

"Send it to my mother, and we'll take it back after we're done."

"Okay then." Fang Minghua agreed.

After dinner at six o'clock in the evening, Fang Minghua and his wife drove their two children to their grandmother's house, and then went straight to the Bell Tower Cinema.

However, what they didn't expect was that Liu Zhenwei in Hong Kong also sneaked into the cinema.
