Chapter Seventy-Seven: Have You Studied Marxism Today?

"Language is, of course, a culture, and a living culture, which is everlasting, everlasting...... I fully understand your feelings, so far, the unique significance of Cantonese in the Chinese music scene, film and television, this is indeed not erased, nor should it be erased, and this is only one aspect of Cantonese culture that is popular today, I can write this kind of song because I like Cantonese, and the public can enjoy this song because the public also has Cantonese lovers...... I don't think that's something you can describe with a simple insult. ”

The reporter was at a loss: "But...... But ......"

"Except for the music source and TV performance, this song does not have any additional publicity, but it can become a hit and become a topic of your mouth, the generation of any phenomenon has its essence, we have to see the essence through the phenomenon - do you study Marxism?"

Reporter: "......"

In the airport, hundreds of people laughed dumbly, listening to Lin Pingzhi's next answer, but Da Shuaibi suddenly pursed his lips and smiled, his expression confident.

"You are from HK, you think you love Cantonese very much, and you want to correct the name of Cantonese, let me ask you, how many people speak Cantonese today?"

The reporter looked confused: How does he know about this Nima? There is a part of Guangdong Province and a part of the Special Economic Zone, and the key is that there are some overseas and all over the world.

This data is very broad, and someone looked it up and whispered to him: it may be tens of millions or even hundreds of millions.

Ok, Lin Pingzhi admitted this statement, in fact, he didn't know how many people spoke Cantonese, he only knew that it was enough for this person not to know.

"So today, do you know that there are a lot of children who don't speak Cantonese anymore?"

The reporter was obviously extremely distressed, and said: "You are talking about outsiders, locals here...... It must be said. ”

"Yes, everybody in the room? I want to hear your honest answers. ”

A pair of eyes swept to the audience, and the people who stopped and stayed at this time were not only Lin Pingzhi's fans, the backpackers who were in a hurry were solemn, the middle-aged people couldn't help but approach, and many big Lori lowered their heads in shame when they heard his words, and in the crowd, some people raised their hands.

Then there is a second hand, and then a third......

Yangcheng is a cosmopolitan city, and it is undeniable that there are many people here who only speak vernacular and do not speak Cantonese, or in other words, they basically do not use Cantonese in their learning environment.

"I have said in interviews more than once that when I was a child, I liked to watch Hong Kong films and Hong Kong dramas, and I liked some of the Cantonese culture they represented...... Of course, at that time, my ideas were very shallow, I just thought that speaking Cantonese was very handsome, and I spoke some nonsense Cantonese, and my voice was weird, so I could only try to imitate the tones of those singers, but I was very proud that our school had a 'Cantonese song' competition, and they said that I spoke well. ”

"Later, when I entered the circle and came into contact with the local seniors in HK, I couldn't help but show off, they thought my accent was ridiculous, and they said that I was a 'mountain guy', you must know what it meant, and I knew it, but I just laughed. ”

The reporter blushed, there are a lot of outsiders in HK, and the handsome is more than this to win over a group of crackdowns, he thinks this is really too inferior, locals discriminate against outsiders, seniors discriminate against juniors, isn't it normal?

"This is just your personal experience, and it has nothing to do with the issue we want to discuss. ”

"Cantonese is a kind of culture, and its influence in other parts of the mainland mainly depends on Hong Kong's movies and songs, and when Hong Kong culture loses ground, it often lacks a considerable degree of influence, which in turn will further compress the development space of Cantonese culture......

"Just by shouting slogans, beating chicken blood, and excluding dissidents, it is impossible to establish the right to speak as a folk dialect, and dialects are inherently disadvantageous, and you have seen the consequences...... The more we want to protect, the more we want to create influential and excellent Cantonese cultural works, and the vitality of Cantonese lies in this, if we focus on cracking down on 'ordinary people' and desperately defend our own interests, regardless of the overall situation, we will push the congenital disadvantage of Cantonese further......"

"You know very well why no one will hang a sign on the side of the corridor in the classroom: please speak Cantonese. ”

"There is no airport in China that requires staff to communicate in Cantonese. ”

Lin Pingzhi finished a long series of words in one breath, the reporter was stunned, his face was bitter, he took money to do things, he should have spoken for the people behind him, but from the heart, he had been persuaded by Lin Pingzhi - he knew the situation of Cantonese, and he was also Cantonese.

Lin Pingzhi's heart was pounding in his chest, his anger was unbearable, and his eyes were shining.

"The number of downloads of "Our Tunli People" has exceeded one million, and the click-through rate has exceeded 10 million, do you still think that I am insulting Cantonese culture?"

"By the way, I also forgot to say that if there is no mistake, Liu Tianwang is likely to sing this song, I hope everyone can like it. ”

As soon as the words fell, there was a sparse round of applause, and then the applause was like a tide, and the crowd of people who came to swarm around Lin Pingzhi, the camera was aimed at the big handsome, and the leading actors looked at Lin Pingzhi incredulously, and they were honored.

A day ago, because the Hong Kong media forcibly attributed the success of the movie to Andy himself, Andy himself was a Bole-level figure of a rookie director, and felt embarrassed, so he talked to Lin Pingzhi on the phone, the two did not know each other before, and talked about this song in greetings, Lin Pingzhi joked: "Why did you call me personally, I thought it would be a staff member or something......

Andy said bluntly: "You weren't popular before, but now you're really popular! I also borrow your popularity......

Lin Pingzhi shook his head and smiled, Andy still needs to borrow his popularity, this person is also humble enough.

"The song I chose before was "Chinese", and now I want to change it to this song, I heard that it is very popular in the mainland. ”

"Chinese" was published by Andy to celebrate Hong Kong's return to the motherland, and won the Top Ten Chinese Golden Melody Awards of the Year by Radio HK that year.

Lin Pingzhi said truthfully: "Will it not be good to sing this song in the Spring Festival Gala in Guangdong Province, some people think that this song is purely a spoof, and the reviews are not very good...... If you don't want to be more stable, just sing "Chinese", and "Tunli People" just make a sound EP. ”

""Chinese" has been released for more than ten years, and I also want to make some breakthroughs, since it is the Spring Festival Gala of Guangdong Province, why not sing Cantonese songs......"

Andy sighed, "Cantonese is no longer spoken in local programs......"

……

Hong Kong filmmakers, musicians are very aware of the situation of Cantonese, the king of the circle came to the mainland to pay tens of millions, but he was able to star in Hong Kong films directed by newcomers for free, although the main reason is to support Hong Kong films, but Cantonese culture also benefits, which is understandable, Hong Kong movies have been brilliant, and everyone is proud.

However, after all, these people's films are to be shown to the mainlanders, and it is impossible for ungrounded Hong Kong films to have a high box office in the mainland, or in other words, Hong Kong films themselves cannot be grounded, and to attract audiences, it is necessary to use high-quality commercial films to overcome cultural barriers, and it is impossible for bad films to be applauded by mainland audiences, let alone revive Hong Kong films and spread Cantonese.

The reporter is from HK, and Wu Liu is checking the identity of this person, but Lin Pingzhi knows very well which side he probably sent from.

Time back to the present, the assistant Xiaomei is full of little stars, and she looks adoring.

The new wolf of his own son is really powerful, and the press release was immediately sent out: "Lin Pingzhi: Positive energy idol." The article described Lin Pingzhi's airport remarks in detail, and the meaning of kneeling and licking was overflowing, which simply made Lin Pingzhidu blush, and when he opened the comments, there were a lot of crazy fans at the bottom.

This is not the point, the photo of the handsome man and the war group of Confucians has been made into an emoji: Have you studied Marxism today?

Lin Pingzhi: This is Yangcheng Media?

Lin Pingzhi: I heard that you can speak Cantonese?

Hahaha!!

The assistant sister laughed beside herself, her muscles twitched, and she rolled around.

Lin Pingzhi rubbed his temples: "Come on tonight, run another theater." ”

The girl's expression froze suddenly: "You...... Lin Dong, I ......"

"I heard that you have made a lot of money recently, in fact, many people in the company want to be my assistant, but I think you are hardworking, so you have not been replaced...... When I finish speaking, who is for it and who is against?"

Girl: "Employees are a brick, where you need to move!"
