Chapter 421 Thoughts

Zhang Heping did not answer his doubts about the future direction of Changying, but instead said: "What do you think of our hospital?"

“Past, present, future.”

Seeing Xu Rong showing a puzzled expression, Zhang Heping sat opposite him with a cigarette in his arms and said, "Do you still remember how you felt about our college before going to college?"

“Before going to college?”

Xu Rong glanced at the churning water in the transparent glass pot and said, "I have never heard of it!"

Zhang Heping's face was frozen for a moment, but then he smiled again: "You can't always talk like this. I know you are telling the truth, but the truth is unpleasant."

"Isn't there no outsiders?" Xu Rong didn't look up and poured boiling water into the teapot with a rag to wash the tea. "Actually, my impression of our hospital has changed after several stages."

"The first stage is before going to college, I have never heard of the People's Art Theater, and I don't know what it is for."

"The second stage is that after going to college, I started to learn performances. I opened the textbooks and it was all Teacher Yu, Teacher Zheng and others, and then I watched the teacher play movies. At that time, I started to feel that the human arts are really amazing and awesome."

"The third stage is after watching a show, especially as my own business level reaches a certain level, sitting in the audience, I always feel that I can do it."

Xu Rong said with emotion: "When I was in school, many students said that the People's Art Theater was a palace, just like students studying finance across the country who looked at Wudaokou. But one day, the concept of the People's Art Theater and Hall collapsed in my mind. There was a sentence in a report before. I still remember it when I interviewed the director. I forgot what I said. The general idea was that with the passing of the older generation of artists, the People's Art Theater temple was no longer effective."

"Actually, our college has changed a lot in recent years. Really, I'm not complimenting you, the dean. If you don't say anything else, just talk about "Thunderstorm". From the first performance to now, it's been a total of years. I've played one joke or one joke. I don't know why I'm so embarrassed and so embarrassed."

"You can speak softly, you can speak softly." Zhang Heping listened to his voice louder and louder, and became more excited as he spoke. He interrupted him with a smile, and then stood up and closed the door. He said, "Maybe there are still people."

When he sat down again, seeing Xu Rong not saying a word, Zhang Heping understood what Xu Rong had not finished speaking, and sighed and said, "The road has to be taken step by step, the food has to be eaten one by one, and things have to be done one by one. You can't learn from Xiao Feng. He is too extreme. What is management? It's not that you can manage the process of things on the fly, it's something that professionals do, and you can't control it, let alone formulate rules and regulations. You can control people's bodies with rules and regulations, but rules and regulations cannot control people's hearts."

Zhang Heping knocked out the cigarette and said heavily: "But when doing creation, people's hearts are the most important. What do you think is the core of management?"

"It's a human being!" Zhang Heping saw that Xu Rong had been pondering for a long time but had no sound, and said earnestly, "It's to put the right person in the right position. Like Xiao Yang, he can manage the actors, but if you ask him to manage the office, he can manage me in a mess."

"I told you all this, hoping you can understand that we will make a small step forward today and a small step forward tomorrow. As long as there is progress, there will be hope and a future."

Xu Rong did not agree with Zhang Heping's point of view. If you make progress in a small way, you will have to go to the Year of the Monkey and Horse Month?

In his philosophy, with the development of the Internet, there are more and more choices of spiritual consumption and endless forms. As a kind of spiritual consumer product, dramas must keep pace with the times, whether from the perspective of commercial development or the original intention of its birth. As an art of criticism, we cannot always stick to the "Thunderstorm" and "Teahouse" dramas, nor can we always criticize the Republic of China to death.

Although with the wave of marketization, early dramas such as "Thunderstorm" and "Teahouse" have strangely slowed down strong vitality and ironic significance, some people are insensitive or pretend to be insensitive because of the hat of "old society".

Regarding the future of the People's Art Theater, his ideas are similar to Feng Yuanzheng. If the People's Art Theater wants to rejuvenate strong vitality, occupy a place in the literary and artistic circles or even take charge, it must first solve the human problem.

From his experience over the past few years, even if he cut off half of the existing people, it would not delay the operation of the theater at all.

The money saved by cutting off half of the people can be used on the steel blade, increasing the screenwriter's remuneration and increasing the income of creative personnel.

This is the foundation of the survival of the theater. How can we attract the phoenix without planting a sycamore tree?

And whenever reforms are made, how can one not go through the pain?

After solving human problems, the primary problem is to return to the core of drama creation, scripts.

In the past few decades, the People's Art Theater has been able to become a palace and a world-class theater. In addition to a group of excellent directors, actors, and stage design, more importantly, a screenwriter team with Cao Yu, Lao She, Guo Moruo and others as the core.

But without income guarantee, why should people spend three years, five or even ten years to polish a script?

But he did not refute or express his views.

Zhang Heping will form his current concept, so naturally he has experiences and reasons that he does not understand, and his views also have their own reasons. After all, there is no practical experience, so there is no meaning.

"I'm sixty-six this year."

Zhang Heping said something without end in an exclaimed tone, but Xu Rong was stunned on the spot.

According to Zhang Heping's rank, in theory, he should have retired at the age of 65.

Zhang Heping smiled and explained: "If it hadn't been for some achievements in recent years, it was just in time for the 60th anniversary celebration. The boss was afraid of making trouble, so I should have retired last year."

Xu Rong heard Zhang Heping’s unfinished intention, which means that once the 60th anniversary celebration ends, Zhang Heping is likely to leave the People’s Art Theater.

In the past, he always listened to Zhang Heping and Pu Cunxi's words of "retirement" and "succession", but at that time he always used to joke. It was not until today that he realized that the dean who always stumped his own expenses might have to retire in another year.

But can Ren Ming really take it?

Without a dean with a tough and broad-minded dean, can the People's Art Theater still sail on the established route?

The most important thing is that I and Ren Ming usually get along well, but they are just fine.

What will happen in the future?

He doesn't know.

After a moment of stammering, he smiled and said, "Then, I congratulate the dean on making a fortune first."

"What kind of fortune do you make?!" Zhang Heping laughed. Xu Rong's moment of restlessness was something he had not expected. At that moment, he saw loss and confusion in his eyes, but no one else was happy when he heard the news.

Zhang Heping seemed to remember something and said, "By the way, don't run around after the New Year."

Xu Rong picked up the teacup, first tasted it or not, and then asked, "What's wrong?"

"Take you to the recognition door."

It was already six o'clock in the evening when Xu Rong returned home. He heard Zhang Heping talk about the old past for a whole day.

Everyone's life, even beggars, has its highlight moments, let alone Zhang Heping, who was born before the founding of the country and experienced rich experiences.

Zhang Heping's growth experience is connected with the fate of the country and is closely related to the development of the times. His influence on Chinese films is no less than that of Han Sanping.

Xu Rong looked at Zhang Heping from the perspective of an elder for the first time, and suddenly realized that this old man lived much happier than most people.

Because he has been doing the career he loves all his life, what is rare is that he has made achievements.

But Xu Rong did not really treat Zhang Heping as an elder because of this. God knows what he said is true and what is false?

He couldn't help but find it ridiculous on the way home because of his cautious mentality. He always hoped that his subordinates would be honest with him, but he could not be honest with a boss who was about to retire.

After parking the car, he heard laughter coming from the room as soon as he entered the yard.

Before entering the door and changing his shoes, he first looked inside, and saw Jin Fangfang sitting next to Xiao Zhang and Xu Xing on the sofa, chatting with everyone.

Only Aunt Wang and Xu Xing's mother were not there, so they should be busy in the kitchen.

"Teacher Xu, are you back?"

"Well, I went to school in the morning, met a few friends, and was dragged by the dean to chat in the yard for an afternoon. If the security guard hadn't been waiting for the security to come home from get off work and celebrate the New Year, I wouldn't have come back now."

As he said that, he threw his coat on the sofa, sat next to Xiao Zhang and Xu Xing, looking at Jin Fangfang opposite him and said, "I'm sorry, I originally planned to pick you up, but I was delayed in something."

Jin Fangfang smiled and shook her head, saying, "It's okay, I can't touch the door."

He saw that he couldn't get out of touch in the afternoon, so he asked Xiao Zhang and Xu Xing to pick up Jin Fangfang.

The old man listened to the way the two communicated, and although there was no expression on the surface, he quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

As one of the few people who can influence Xu Rong's decision, they all know Jin Fangfang's situation. They know Xu Rong in a very good way. Except for their size, their education, ability, and figure, they are all over Xiao Zhang.

What worries the old man the most was that he heard from Xu Xing that Jin Fangfang had not yet met a partner. Moreover, when Xu Rong was not at home, Jin Fangfang had never lived at home.

This made the old man very worried.

Therefore, when Xu Rong proposed to let Jin Fangfang come to his house for the New Year, he responded without hesitation. If Xu Rong really didn't know this woman, he would definitely cut off the signs as soon as possible.

Xiao Zhang's parents also had similar ideas. As elders, they had to think more.

At present, Xu Rong and Jin Fangfang are clearly maintaining a certain distance.

Xu Rong looked at Xu Xing and asked, "Have Fangfang's room been arranged?"

"Well, the arrangement is done." Xu Xing, who was sitting next to Jin Fangfang, dared not speak much.

She was not afraid of her sister-in-law because they always played together, and she knew that she was not like her brother, and she always smiled on her face no matter what she thought.

But she was always a little scared of Jin Fangfang. Firstly, this woman never accommodates compliments because she is Xu Rong's sister. Secondly, it is also the most fatal. Her brother trusts this woman very much. She has no doubt that if she said bad things about Jin Fangfang in front of her brother, her brother would only doubt herself rather than Jin Fangfang.

But on the other hand, she admired her from the bottom of her heart. Jin Fangfang could chat and laugh whether she faced the president of a large company or the big director in the industry, just like before her brother came back, she could face her smile even if she faced them all.

But this also made her sure that the rumors in the company were pure nonsense.

If she had anything to do with her brother, she would probably be so nervous that she would have died of nervousness.

Seeing Jin Fangfang sitting in a straight posture, Xu Rong said, "You brought the computer. Let's go upstairs. I happened to have something to tell you. Go back and arrange your work."

"Xiao Zhang and Xu Xing are also together."

Jin Fangfang didn't expect that he would suddenly talk about work, so she didn't react a little. When Xu Rong stood up, she nodded and said, "Take it."

"What's the matter? I'm so anxious. I have to wait for the New Year to talk about it now?"

"It's not a hurry. I'm mainly afraid that I will forget the incident after the New Year." Seeing that everyone was looking at him in confusion, he lit up the watch on his wrist, "According to the national law, today is still a working day, and it's not considered overtime."

"Hahaha."

As soon as he went upstairs, Xiao Zhang said, "Luckily, you are back. I feel that their topic is so boring, but Sister Fangfang has been chatting with them for half a long time."

"Hahaha."

As Xiao Zhang finished speaking, a burst of laughter rang up and downstairs at the same time. Xiao Zhang listened to the laughter downstairs, took a light breath, and muttered: "It's over, I'll be quarrel again."

When he arrived at the living room, Xu Rong looked at the three people following him and said, "Let's rest, you can lie down, and you can lie down."
