() Found the way home!

On the 22nd day of the twelfth lunar month, the day before the New Year, when Chen Fang was preparing gifts for Qin Mohan for home, he received a call from his grandfather and asked Chen Fang to accompany him to attend a party.

This is a gathering in the Beijing literary and artistic circle. It will be held every year before the New Year. It is also a main way for some older generations to introduce and encourage younger generations to enter the circle.

The Beijing Circle is a very special group. They are somewhat self-reliant and look down on the northwest circle of Zhang Yimou and Jia Zhangke; they look down on the Hong Kong circle formed by Zhou Xingxing and his elder brother, and they look down on the Wanwan directors who only kiss me all day long; they are also somewhat self-consistent. They use Beijing Film and Central Opera as the basis, and have won over the talents of the big wave directors and screenwriters. In the use of film and television actors, they have always been the main people in the Beijing circle, so the actors in the Beijing circle can get too many jealous resources, which has caused external personnel to gather in the Beijing circle.

The address of the party was set in the banquet hall of the Guomao Hotel. Chen Fang and Qin Mohan drove to the Beijing Film Studio to pick up the old man and the old lady. Today, there are not only film and television industry, but also many famous celebrities in the folk art industry. The old lady Yang Xiuzhen, as the inheritor of the Beijing Drum, was also invited to be on the list.

Chen Fang's mentor Jin Hailin also came to the scene, and the old man has retired. Now the Huaxia Music Society has a position as vice chairman and often serves as art director for many concerts or evening parties.

"Hello, teacher!" Chen Jian was always respectful in front of the old man: "This is my girlfriend Qin Mohan."

Jin Hailin looked at Chen Fang with relief, and then looked at Qin Mohan beside him: "Very good! Very good! Take the time to take him home and show your teacher's wife. She has always been worried about you."

Jin Hailin has always been worried about Chen Fang. This child was considered to be the one he watched. He was too wise and experienced family changes, so he had long seen through the world. When he was in school, he often got into music alone, rarely had contact with the outside world, had no friends, let alone fell in love. Jin Hailin has always been afraid that he would not be able to let go and live alone.

Some time ago, Chen Fang returned to Jin Hailin's house to greet him. Seeing that Chen Fang finally returned to normal, the old couple were very happy. The teacher's wife was preparing to introduce him to a partner.

I said a few more words to the teacher, and I left until a junior in the music industry came to greet Chen Fang. I agreed with the teacher that I would take Qin Mohan to the house for free. Chen Fang returned to my grandfather's table in the envious eyes of the person who came to greet him.

The old man has always worked in the Beijing Film Academy and the Ministry of Culture. He has supported many old friends during his reign. He and the old lady sat in the seat. After a while, many people came to greet him. Chen Fang and Qin Mohan sat next to the old lady, and in a short while he met many seniors in the literary and artistic circles.

"Yezi, come here." Hearing the old man's greeting, Chen Fang quickly got up. A man who was about fifty years old and was a little thin. Chen Fang looked at him and found that he was very recognizable. It turned out that he was the famous national director Zhang Yimou and Director Zhang.

"Hello, Director Zhang, I am Chen Fang." Chen Fang respectfully said hello to Zhang Yimou without any advice from the old man.

"Hello, I heard from Mr. Jin that you have established a film and television company now?" Director Zhang looked at the old man's face and confronted Chen Fang.

"Well, yes, it's called Wild Fox Film and Television Production Company, mainly for film and television investment."

"Wild Fox? I think I've heard of this name." Zhang Yimou thought for a while and asked uncertainly: "Did you have made a new movie plan with Niu Hao and invested hundreds of millions of dollars?"

"Yes, I didn't expect Director Zhang to hear about it. If Director Zhang has any new projects, you can consider our company. Although our company is newly established, it is definitely not worse than some old companies in terms of production and distribution."

"Okay, I will definitely cooperate if I have the opportunity in the future."

Zhang Yimou originally thought he was a junior in the industry. Since the old senior was about to promote him to join the circle, he would do it casually. After all, Mr. Jin recommended him to be the director of the 2008 Olympics, which gave him the title of "Master Zhang" and he really entered the Beijing circle for the first time. What Zhang Yimou did not expect was that this junior was actually a capital tycoon and might have the opportunity to cooperate in the future.

After being polite with Zhang Yimou for a while, Chen Fang met many people inside and outside the circle with the old man, which can be regarded as expanding his connections in the Beijing circle.

"Grandpa Jin, Grandma Yang, I miss you so much." When Shen Fang was greeting someone in the circle, a 14 or 15-year-old girl suddenly popped up next to him and rushed towards the old man's table.

"Hey, our little princess is here. Come here quickly and let grandma see. This girl hasn't seen her for half a year, so why has this girl grown again?"

"Grandma Yang, am I developing? Who is this beautiful sister next to you?" The little girl asked, looking at Qin Mohan sitting next to the old lady. She knew almost all of the Jin family. She really didn't know the beautiful woman in front of her, who was a little jealous of herself, even as a beautiful girl.

"Hey, it turns out to be a little princess. Do you still know me? I haven't seen this taller in a few years. It's almost 1.75 meters." Chen Fang walked over from the side and asked the little girl.

The little princess is named Guan Xiaotong, and she is also a Manchu. Her grandfather and Chen Fang's grandmother are brothers and sisters. When her old man passed away, the old lady took Chen Fang to pay her condolences. In those days, the family was so busy that no one could take care of her. The little girl was only eight or nine years old. She cried there with a childish look on her face and her voice was hoarse. Chen Fang looked a little reluctant, so she took her to drink water, eat, tell her stories, and coaxed her to rest. Finally, she became familiar with her.

"You are? Brother Jin Ye? I heard that you are back. I went to Grandma Yang's house several times but didn't see you." Guan Xiaotong pulled Chen Fang's arm and couldn't help but shake it a few times: "Brother Jin Ye, where are you living now? I'll take the time to play with you."

Seeing Chen Fang being so close to a girl he didn't know, although the girl was not big, Qin Mohan still felt a little sensible: "Chen Fang, who is this little girl?"

"Oh, I'll introduce you to you, Xiaotong, this is my girlfriend Qin Mohan." Then he pointed at Guan Xiaotong and said to Qin Mohan: "This is my granddaughter of senior brother, Guan Xiaotong, who is also an actor."

"Hello, I'm happy to know you." Qin Mohan smiled slightly and reached out his hand.

Guan Xiaotong was infected by her bright smile and held Qin Mohan's deep hand: "Qin Mohan? Are you Qin Mohan who sang the song "Confession Balloon"? Ah, I'm so happy to know you."

The old lady sat there quietly tasting tea, dealing with several folk art industry people who came to greet each other from time to time, and was very pleased to see the young people getting together so quickly.

"Brother Chen Fang!" At Shen Fang's strong request, Guan Xiaotong finally changed his title to Chen Fang: "You seem to be in the eighties, you are much older than sister Qin Mohan. Is this considered an old cow eating tender grass?" After Guan Xiaotong said that, he hurriedly hid behind Qin Mohan and perfectly avoided Chen Fang's stretched out hand.

"What are you talking about, little kid? I am only six years older than your sister Mo Han. Maybe you will find a boyfriend who is seven years older than you in the future." Chen Fang teased with a wicked smile on his face.

"You bully me, I'll tell Grandma Yang."

"Sister Xiaotong, don't listen to his nonsense." Qin Mohan pulled Guan Xiaotong and sat next to him: "Is Sister Xiaotong also an actor?"

"She was in film and television dramas at the age of three or four. Don't watch her young age. She has been in the industry for more than ten years." Chen Fang interrupted again: "I guess her academic performance is not good now, so I can only stay in the entertainment industry."

"What's wrong with the entertainment industry? You don't look down on our entertainment industry?" Qin Mohan retorted with the same hatred of the enemy.

"You are a gangster, my grades are good." Finally, I caught a grammatical problem with him. Guan Xiaotong found an alliance: "I look down on the entertainment industry. If you believe it or not, I will shout. I don't need to take action. Today, the people in this hall can clean up you."

"Ignore you anymore, I'll chat with Sister Mo Han." Guan Xiaotong grabbed Qin Mo Han's hand and said enviously: "Sister Mo Han, you are so beautiful, your skin is good."

"Sister Xiaotong, you are born with beauty..."

-------------------------------------

Chen Fang didn't care about the two of them, and he met many insiders and outsiders with the old man. At the following banquet, under the inspiration of Guan Xiaotong, he took Qin Mohan to the stage to sing a song. This time he didn't sing "Confession Balloon", and its tune was a bit unacceptable to many of the old predecessors present. The two sang "Ordinary Day", which was the first time that the song appeared in front of the public. The simple guitar accompaniment and Qin Mohan's clear voice achieved unexpected results in the entire banquet hall. The whole audience was silent, and the song was still unsatisfied.

Under the clamor of Guan Xiaotong, several young people also started to make a fuss and looked at Qin Mohan with a wry smile. Qin Mohan thought for a while: "Why would you sing that song "When You Are Old" should be quite suitable."

"Okay." Qin Mohan stepped down from the stage by himself, Chen Fang stood up and said, "There are you bringing you a song adapted from a poem by the Irish poet Yeats. I hope everyone can like it."

The song "When You Are Old" is played with a piano and is more profound than the guitar. The melodious piano sound echoes throughout the hall, accompanied by a deep and magnetic voice, which brings Qin Mohan back to the morning when he first listened to this song.

“………

There is only one person who still loves your pious soul

Love the wrinkles on your old face

...

When you get old, your hair turns white

Sleepy and drowsy

When you are old, you can't walk anymore

Take a nap by the fire and recall your youth

………”

All the poems here have read, and with Shenfang's magnetic voice and beautiful tunes, many people gradually became immersed in it. Even the old man who always thought Shenfang was a little unemployed was unable to help but be infected. He gently grabbed the hand of the old woman sitting beside him under the table, and the two looked at each other and smiled. The decades of feelings were all in this song.

"This song is better than the one I just said, and the composition is more mature and the artistic conception is also good." Jin Hailin commented on him, very pertinent, after all, there is still a little difference in the lyrics of the two songs.

"Are you still trying the arguments mentioned in your graduation thesis?" Teacher Jin asked about his graduation thesis that year.

When Jin Hailin saw Chen Fang gradually becoming addicted to pop music and gave up the main major of piano. In order to take him back to the right path, when he graduated, Teacher Jin suggested that if he could come up with a qualified and research-worthy graduation thesis, he would agree to him graduate normally, otherwise he would come back to re-enter the piano major.

Chen Fang spent nearly half a year studying and verifying, and finally came up with a copy of "On the Compatibility of Chinese Qin Opera and Rock Music". This is a collision between traditional art and Western rock music. It is the first time that someone has raised this topic in China. In Shen Fang's graduation thesis defense, he also showed his works that have been studied in the past six months and sang a rock song with Qin Opera. Although it is a bit tricky, there should be some good results when continuing to study according to the direction proposed by Chen Fang's thesis.

Professor Jin Hailin was very pleased to see that he worked hard for half a year to come up with a paper of good quality. He hoped that he could continue to follow this topic. Who knew that after getting his graduation certificate, he ran abroad.

Chen Fang was a little ashamed when he heard the teacher mention this. He ran out to find the subject of the paper in order to deal with the teacher. He accidentally heard Qin Opera performances by several performing artists of Huayin old tunes. He had an idea and prepared this topic. During the time he came into contact with several old artists, he learned a lot from them and promised to have the opportunity to cooperate. However, after graduation, his yearning for the outside world made him leave everything behind. Now the teacher raised this topic again, Chen Fang felt that he was a little sorry for the old people, and those old artists who have devoted their lives to the promotion of Qin Opera art.
