Chapter 44: Psychological Testing

The Moscow restaurant is located on the side of the exhibition hall in the west of Beiping City, and it was particularly popular in the fifties and sixties. At that time, the disciples of the big courtyard of Beiping City regarded going to "Lao Mo" to eat Western food as an event full of glory, as if it was not a meal, but close to a ceremonial pilgrimage. I haven't been to "Lao Mo", just like outsiders who came to Peking and didn't see Tian/An/Men, don't mention how sorry it is.

At that time, the people who came to Lao Mo were all upper-class people with backgrounds, returned overseas Chinese and people from the big courtyard, and the Soviet embassy in China had to come almost every weekend. However, Beiping City now has more upscale Beiping Hotel, Peace Hotel and Xinqiao Hotel, and there are fewer dignitaries and nobles, and Lao Mo has become a place for little intellectuals to pretend to be forced, similar to Starbucks in later generations.

When Xu Wangqiu and Su Bai came to Lao Mo, Liu Lin and them were wandering in the restaurant. Xu Wangqiu gave an introduction to Su Bai's bedroom, and everyone got to know each other briefly, so they sat down and ordered. The boys' dishes are all ordered by Xu Wangqiu, while the girls' dishes are ordered by Liu Cancan. After the food was served, everyone chatted while eating.

When young people in this era get together, in addition to talking about ideals, they basically talk about literature and art, and Xu Wangqiu and they are no exception. In the past year or so, a large number of literary works have appeared in the literary world that depict human tragedy and pain during the movement. One of the most notable is Liu Xinwu, who has published several novels one after another, each of which can cause a sensation. The girl in Su Bai's bedroom had just read Liu Xinwu's new work "Wake Up, Brother" and talked about this novel.

Xu Wangqiu doesn't like scar novels very much, mainly because he thinks that most of these works are not well written, especially Liu Xinwu's novels: "Liu Xinwu's novels are worse than the other, "The Class Teacher" is average, and the later "The Position of Love" and "Wake Up, Brother" are even worse. His novels are all theme-first, stories designed for the sake of the concept, and characters designed for the sake of the concept. did not go deep into the hearts of the characters, did not go deep into the souls of the characters, so the whole story was superficial and seemed particularly false. ”

Liu Cancan nodded slightly and said: "I don't like these novels very much, some people fought teachers during sports, and some people broke up with their parents, but now everyone is shouting, I am a victim, I have a miserable life, but no one mentions my mistakes." ”

Zhao Ban couldn't help but say: "Many people like "Scars", but I don't like it. In the novel, Wang Xiaohua has a good relationship with her mother, and the mother-daughter relationship is deep, but after her mother was beaten as a traitor, she immediately broke off the relationship with her mother. At the end of the novel, she actually said in front of her mother's body, my daughter will never forget the scars on your and my hearts. Didn't you poke the deepest scar on your mother's heart? What could hurt her mother more than her daughter breaking with herself?"

Su Bai nodded heavily, the betrayal of outsiders is a skin injury, but the betrayal of relatives is a stab in the heart. She will never forget the sad eyes of her father and mother when the third sister shouted "Down with Su Zhensheng" and pushed her father. If outsiders do this, she can understand and may forgive, but her sister really can't forgive her sister for doing this.

Xie Xiaojing added: "Wangqiu's "Mom Loves Me Again" is much stronger than these people's novels, at least the story is true!"

Xu Wangqiu hurriedly waved his hand and said: "I wrote that to make money, that's not what I want to write, and it's not what I want to shoot." ”

Liu Cancan asked, "Then what do you want to write and what do you want to shoot?"

Xu Wangqiu smiled lightly: "I want to shoot a lot, action movies, war movies, science fiction films, all kinds of genres." I especially want to shoot all kinds of heroes, small heroes, big heroes, such as the revolutionaries in "The Rape", and then Ban Chao, Geng Gong, Wang Xuance and so on. Speaking of this, Xu Wangqiu's eyes saw the void, as if looking into the distant future: "We know Hot Spring Pass, we know three hundred warriors, but how many people in foreign countries know that thirty-six people are in the Western Regions, how many people know that thirteen warriors return to Yumen, and how many people know that one person will destroy a country? I have an idea, in the future, I will find a group of directors, each of whom will shoot a story, shoot our heroes, and make a series of movies, called "The Legend of the Martyrs", so that their names will be spread in the world!"

Everyone has a heroic dream in their hearts, and everyone has their own heroes in their hearts.

Liu Lin was immediately excited when he heard this: "Wangqiu, you must call me when the time comes, I have been very fond of Champion Hou since I was a child, if possible, I want to make the story of Champion Hou into a movie!"

Wu Zhiliu and the others were also excited: "I want to shoot Zheng Chenggong!", "This matter is my one." "I grew up watching "The Legend of Yue", and I especially like Yue Fei, and it is my dream to make Yue Fei's story into a movie......!"

Zhang Yimou also said loudly: "Count me in, if I can, I want to make Qin Shi Huang into a movie." ”

Xie Xiaojing immediately corrected: "Qin Shi Huang is not a hero, he is a tyrant. ”

As a native of Qinchuan, Zhang Yimou has special feelings for Qin Shi Huang, and in his heart Qin Shi Huang is a great hero, and he is very dismissive of Xie Xiaojing's statement: "Qin Shi Huang unified the six countries, unified writing, currency, weights and measures, and promoted the development of society, why is he not a hero? Taizu said in "Spring Snow in Qinyuan" that the country is so delicate that countless heroes are bent over. Pity the Qin Emperor and Han Wu, slightly lose the literary style. Taizu said that Qin Shi Huang was a hero, why couldn't Qin Shi Huang be a hero?"

Xie Xiaojing was stunned by Zhang Yimou's words, thinking that he hadn't seen you say so much, but he was unwilling to admit defeat: "But Qin Shi Huang burned books and pit Confucianism, and he was particularly brutal, how can such a person be a hero?"

Zhang Yimou retorted: "People are multifaceted, and they all have advantages and disadvantages, and of course Qin Shi Huang is too. You can't just stare at him, Qin Shi Huang has made great contributions to our nation, of course he is a hero!"

"Alright, alright, you two don't quarrel. Xu Wangqiu saw that Xie Xiaojing and Zhang Yimou were arguing so blushing and thick-necked, afraid that they would hurt the harmony, so he quickly changed the topic, "Let's play a game, let's do a psychological test, this is what I saw from a foreign language magazine, it is said to be very accurate, and it can test your true character." ”

Forty years later, psychological test games are even available to junior high school students, and even more so on the Internet, but in this era, they are a new thing, and they have never heard of Zhang Yimou. When they heard Xu Wangqiu say this, their curiosity was suddenly lifted, waiting for Xu Wangqiu to continue.

Seeing that the topic was successfully shifted, Xu Wangqiu said unhurriedly: "This test is very simple, it's like this. One day, a big fat pig and a little skinny pig met a big bad wolf in the forest, and how do you think this story is the most plausible. There are five answers for you to choose from, first, the big fat pig scares the little thin pig and says, the big bad wolf is going to eat you!Second, the little thin pig is afraid and says to the big bad wolf, don't eat me, I am thin and small, so the big fat pig can make more sausages. Thirdly, the big fat pig said to the little thin pig, don't be afraid, I can protect you, I am big and strong. Fourth, the big fat pig and the little lean pig were eaten by the big bad wolf! Fifth, the three of them were actually good friends. After you think about these five answers and make a choice, I will tell you the meaning of each option. ”

Everyone present gave an answer: "I choose two." "I'll choose the third one. "I choose four. ”......

Xu Wangqiu looked at everyone and said with a smile: "If you choose one, please raise your hand, the big fat pig scares the little thin pig and says, the big bad wolf is going to eat you! ”

Only Liu Cancan raised his hand: "I choose one, what kind of character is it to choose one?"

Xu Wangqiu didn't think it was strange, from Liu Cancan's speech and demeanor, it could be seen that the family conditions were relatively good, and the knives and forks were very skilled, and it was estimated that there was some origin. But this has nothing to do with him, and he doesn't bother to care: "The person who chooses one has a more confident personality and a sense of superiority." No matter how docile you usually feel to others, your heart is actually full of a sense of superiority, and in some ways you even feel much superior to others, even if you help others, you actually want to show your superiority. ”

Of course, Liu Cancan won't admit it: "Nonsense, I'm not such a person at all." ”

"It's meant to be a game, and it's fun. Xu Wangqiu smiled and said, "The second is that the little thin pig said to the big bad wolf in fear, don't eat me, I'm thin and small, so the big fat pig can make more meat sausages." Raise your hand for the second option. ”

Among the people present, two raised their hands, including Zhao Ban.

Xu Wangqiu couldn't help but glance at Zhao Ban: "The person who chooses the second lacks a sense of security, can't withstand any unexpected situation, and will be depressed and uneasy for a long time once an abnormal state occurs." In order to protect oneself, one's thoughts and actions tend to become aggressive because of fear. ”

Xu Wangqiu thought that Zhao Ban would refute his words, but he didn't expect him to nod thoughtfully.

Xu Wangqiu continued: "The third is, the big fat pig said to the little thin pig, don't be afraid, I can protect you, I am big and strong. ”

There are a lot of people who choose three, Su Bai, Liu Lin, Xia Gang and others.

Xu Wangqiu glanced at Su Bai, thinking that it was indeed very suitable for Su Bai's character, and said with a smile: "The person who chooses the third has an optimistic personality and a sense of justice. I hope that the world is fair, and acknowledge that the world is both good and evil, but I believe that through my own efforts and the efforts of others, evil can be overcome. Therefore, in daily life, I always actively strive for it, and it is not easy to give up!"

As soon as Xu Wangqiu's voice fell, Liu Lin couldn't wait to shout: "It's accurate, it's so correct, I'm like this." ”

Su Bai tilted his head and thought about it, then nodded with a smile, he is really such a person.

Xu Wangqiu continued: "Fourth, the big fat pig and the little thin pig were eaten by the big bad wolf. Raise your hand for the one who picks four. ”

There are also quite a few people who choose four, Gu Changwei, Wu Zhiliu and others are among them.

Xu Wangqiu announced the answer: "Those who choose four are old and serious. has a maturity that is not commensurate with his age, and has his own set of habitual thinking to look at things in progress. Sometimes I give up the opportunity to work hard because of pessimistic predictions, and sometimes I think I want to suppress my feelings when I encounter something I like. ”

Hearing the results given by Xu Wangqiu, most of the people who chose the fourth nodded, and of course some shook their heads.

Only Zhang Yimou chose five.

Xu Wangqiu was a little surprised, he thought that no one would choose five, but he didn't expect Zhang Yimou to choose. But if you think about it carefully, Zhang Yimou is really such a person, otherwise he would not have been eaten to death by Zhang Weiping first: "The person who chooses the fifth has a relatively naΓ―ve personality, sometimes like an innocent child, full of optimism and positivity about the world, and hopes that all evil things will be touched by beauty, so he is sincere to others and has no defense." ”

Zhang Yimou felt that this evaluation was not very good, and it sounded very naΓ―ve, so he couldn't help asking: "Am I such a character?"

Zhang Ran looked at Zhang Yimou with a questioning face, and thought to himself, Lao Mou, you are really such a character, your character is easy to be cheated by, in the future, you will obediently mess with the old man, the old man will definitely not cheat you! He did not answer Zhang Yimou's question, but said with a smile: "This is a game, you don't have to take it seriously." ”

Su Bai saw that everyone had tested it, so Xu Wangqiu didn't test it, and asked, "Wangqiu, how many do you choose?"
