Chapter 44 Interview

Xiao Jian replied: "I learned Italian by myself while playing tricks."

Hou Xiaoling praised: "You can speak so well by yourself, it seems that your language talent is very high." Then asked: "Why did you think of learning Italian?"

"Can I say I don't know why it's Italian?"

Xiao Jian thought for a while and replied: "The reason why I am interested in European culture and art is that I know that the birthplace of the European Renaissance is Italy, where there are too many great works of literature, architecture, painting, sculpture, etc. People and works. And to understand Italian culture and art, I think there is nothing more convenient than learning its language well, isn’t it?”

He originally wanted to talk about Italian celebrities and works during the Renaissance, such as Dante, the father of the humanities, and the three masters of literature and art, and their works.But when I think about it, I can't!These people and their works have appeared in history textbooks.

In order to highlight their unique taste and noble style, people nowadays often choose some very niche and unpopular characters to show their profound knowledge.But Xiao Jian didn't know any of those characters.

For example, you ask someone now: Who is your favorite in a certain masterpiece?Some people will never talk about the main character in the book, or even the main supporting role, in order to appear to be a high-ranking person. Instead, they will name a small supporting role that you may have forgotten, which is not much better than a supporting role.Then I will talk about a big reason, as if the author wrote more than 100 million words, just to highlight the small supporting role described in only a few hundred words and a thousand words.

So, in the end, Xiao Jian just spoke in general terms, without involving anyone or any works.

Hou Xiaoling nodded and smiled and said, "As far as I know, your works have strong Chinese elements. Can I understand that you haven't used Western elements in your works, or will they be used in the next book?"

Xiao Jian shook his head and said: "Foreign cultures are only for reference and will not become my style. I really like the phrase 'if the barbarians enter China, it will be China', and I prefer the phrase 'what belongs to the world is what belongs to the Tang Dynasty'. Integrating western culture into oriental culture is the topic I am trying.

Our ancestors have left us too many cultural and artistic heritages, which cannot be excavated in a lifetime. Naturally, there is no need to use others.Of course, we can't rest on our laurels and integrate the strengths of other countries with our own culture as the core. Innovation is the driving force for our artistic development.

I can't understand at all what those people who regard oriental culture as worthless and discard it, and then go to the West to learn half-tones and come back to be great.Open their mouths and keep their mouths shut about how good the West is, and the West can stay there and not come back. I don’t think anyone will say that they have forgotten many classics.But since you want to come back to earn a living, you should stop talking nonsense, and while making money from your compatriots, you still dislike these things. This kind of person is the most hateful. "

Hou Xiaoling heard Xiao Jian's digressions, and suddenly asked a sharp question, "Are you a nationalist?"

Xiao Jian was stunned for a moment, knowing that he had strayed from the topic when he got excited just now, and couldn't figure out what the reporter meant when he asked him this question. He sipped the bitter coffee in his hand, put down the cup after a while and said, "I refuse to answer this question."

Hou Xiaoling: "Why?"

"Because this question is meaningless, every country is saying that 'the nation is the world', anyone who loves their own nation is not wrong, and building their own nation better is good for the world the greatest contribution."

Although Xiao Jian said he refused to answer, his words clearly told her that he was, and Hou Xiaoling could not write Xiao Jian to admit it.

Hou Xiaoling took a look at this "slick" guy, finished the digression, and started to ask questions about the interview outline. The first question was whether the video is true or not.

Xiao Jian recounted in detail the situation when he met the reporter that day, emphasizing that he was joking with the lines in the movie he filmed, and also said that the video uploaded on the Internet had been edited and it was not true.

Then, Hou Xiaoling asked again: "I heard that you sold tens of thousands of signed photos of celebrities, is this true?"

Xiao Jian nodded: "There is a matter of celebrity autographs, but there are not tens of thousands of them, and it can't be said to be sold. The autographed photos were signed by me during the three years when I was a group performer, and I used them for three years. It's not like someone Some people speculate about my background. I can’t talk about selling because my friends in my hometown and my sister’s classmates entrusted me to sign for them. What profiteering."

Hou Xiaoling: "Then how many celebrity photos have you signed?"

"It looks like less than [-] copies."

"That's [-] copies?" Hou Xiaoling exclaimed in surprise, counting with her fingers, "Doesn't that mean that during the three years you have been a group performer, you have signed an average of twenty celebrity autographs every day? Looking for a celebrity autograph session is it hard?"

Of course, Xiao Jian would not say that it is difficult to find celebrity autographs, and he has suffered a lot for those autographs, but he still said: "Most of the celebrities are easy to talk, and it is easy to sign. Of course, it has to be in their spare time. Do not bother when you are working and resting."

Hou Xiaoling: "Then don't you know a lot of celebrities?"

Xiao Jian: "There are many, too many to count, but most of them are I know them, they don't know me, celebrities are too busy to meet too many fans every day, it is impossible to remember so many people."

After asking readers' favorite questions, Hou Xiaoling changed the subject: "A few days ago, the author Nanchuan said that your novel "Longteng" plagiarized his ideas. Is there such a thing?"

Xiao Jian: "I said it's useless without plagiarism. Readers think it's not plagiarism that matters. The fact is that the writer named Nan Chuan can't be contacted now, because many readers bought his book and found that the content is similar to "Longteng" and the original. It's irrelevant, readers are looking for him to return the goods all over the world."

"Hehe." Hou Xiaoling explained with a smile: "I understand the drama, because Nanchuan broke the news that "Dragon Teng" plagiarized his novel ideas, he published [-] copies at his own expense, and sold less than [-] copies of "Iron-Blood Instructor" within three days. It was sold out, and someone on the Internet gave him a nickname: "thick-skinned than the city wall-hard to wear."

Xiao Jian also laughed, because his book has such a great influence, a little hype can make a book that has been unsalable for three years be sold out in three days.

Hou Xiaoling continued to ask: "Why did you come out to clarify the incident after more than a week?"

Naturally, this can’t be said to be a movie hype, “I have been drawing in a closed state for more than a week, and my sister was afraid that this would disturb me, so she never mentioned it to me, so I knew not long ago that there was This matter."

"draw?"

"Yes, the pictures in the third and fourth volumes of "Dragon Teng" will be published in an album in a short time."

Hou Xiaoling: "By the way, you are still a painter, can I have a sneak peek at your masterpieces?"

"Of course." Ning Hao told him to bring the painting.

Xiao Jian took out the tube-shaped painting he brought.

"Can I open it?" Hou Xiaoling asked.

"Of course." Xiao Jian handed the painting to her.

Hou Xiaoling slowly opened the circle, and a beautiful azure mecha appeared on the paper, beside him was a handsome boy in a blue combat uniform with a blue combat helmet in his hand, and a blue sports car behind the mecha looming.The background is the blue ocean and the blue sky. The whole picture is blue except for blue, but the picture is clear at a glance, with a very layered sense. One can know the artist's extraordinary skills at a glance.

"It's beautiful. Although I'm not a professional, I think this painting is really beautiful. What's the name of this painting?"

"It's called Lan." Xiao Jian said: "If you like it, I will give it to you."

"This... is too precious." Hou Xiaoling was a little moved, but the painting was really extraordinary, so he didn't dare to take it.

Xiao Jian smiled and said: "My paintings are worthless, really, I haven't sold them for a penny until now." Because he has never sold paintings.

Hou Xiaoling said: "Then I accept it, but I have to treat you to dinner tonight."

"Respect is worse than obedience."
