In his past and present lives, Su Qingzhi saw Li Yanhong himself for the first time, and if there is one word to describe his first feeling of this legendary figure, it is "handsome".

The founder of Baidu belongs to the kind of person with very good facial features, who is a talent.

Judging from the appearance alone, it is almost impossible to find any shortcomings in this man, it is too perfect.

Li Yanhong's eyes were bright, revealing intelligence and wisdom, and he looked confident.

Bachelor's degree in Yanjing, studying abroad in the United States, gold collar in Silicon Valley, and a technical master......

Su Qingzhi suddenly remembered that when he read the book "Baidu - So Focused" in his previous life, there was a description of Li Yanhong in it:

This is a man with too many advantages, a heroic appearance, an open and transparent heart, and an elegant and humble conversation.

If you put all this aside, at least he is still the elite of China's IT industry, the only Chinese who can compete with the search giant Google.

Even if he takes away the position of CEO of Baidu, he is still an excellent man who is single-minded, never gives up, never influences others, and has enough psychological endurance.

Su Qingzhi had to sigh, this guy is simply a standard template for "rich and handsome".

However, what he didn't expect was that this "rich and handsome" had a bit of a strange temper, and the place where he was invited to meet for the first time was actually a theater.

On the stage, the famous "Hitting the Golden Branch" of Jin Opera was played.

This play tells the story of the Tang Dynasty's daughter Shengping Princess Xu and the sixth son Guo Hua of Fenyang, Guo Ziyi, as his wife, which is widely spread among the people.

A few years ago, Hong Kong Television Broadcasts Co., Ltd. adapted the TV series "Drunken Golden Branch" based on this song, starring Ouyang Zhenhua, which was deeply loved by the audience.

Su Qingzhi muttered in his heart, please watch "Hitting the Golden Branch", what is Li Yanhong's idea?

Wang Xiao shrugged his shoulders when he saw him looking at the stage with a confused expression, obviously not intending to explain anything to him.

However, Li Yanhong was more talkative, and after the two sides sat down, he said: "When I was young, I was fascinated by opera, and I was once admitted to a Jin opera troupe in my hometown...... However, interest is interest after all, and if it can't be transformed into food, clothing, housing and transportation, it can only be stopped. ”

Su Qingzhi listened, shook his spirits, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect Boss Li to have such a legendary experience, but then again, if Boss Li really entered the drama industry at that time, wouldn't China be missing an Internet celebrity?"

Wang Xiao interjected: "There is one less Internet celebrity, but one more opera artist." ”

Su Qingzhi shook his head: "People like Boss Li are too condescending to be opera artists, it is better to be an Internet, and it is more positive for social significance." ”

Li Yanhong asked, "How do you say this?"

Su Qingzhi said: "Tang poems, Song poems, Yuan songs...... Every era has a culture that belongs to this era, contemporary is the world of pop songs, and opera, as a treasure of China's national culture, is gradually no longer sharp, and decline is almost inevitable. ”

Li Yanhong frowned: "Inevitably? This is a bit too much, isn't it? Now there are not as many people listening to the opera as before, this is an indisputable fact, but there are still a group of outstanding opera artists in the contemporary era, who are working hard to carry forward the opera, and many classic repertoire of Jin opera, such as "Hitting the Golden Branch" and "Fan Lihua", have also been put on the screen, causing resonance among many audiences. ”

"Opera is not in decline, but presented in another form, re-entering the public eye, which is also a kind of cultural inheritance. ”

Su Qingzhi nodded, Li Yanhong's words made sense, if opera is not innovated, sooner or later it will be drowned in the long river of history.

But then again, if opera is really developing well, why should it be presented in another form?

It's not because of the decline that opera practitioners have to compromise with the market and the public's aesthetics......

Su Qingzhi sighed: "There are not many young people like Boss Li who love to listen to dramas now. ”

Li Yanhong said with a smile: "Young man, I am in my Chinese New Year's Eve this year, and I am no longer young."

After speaking, seeing Su Qingzhi playing the beat with the musical instruments on the stage, he was surprised: "Mr. Su also understands drama?"

Su Qingzhi said with a smile: "When I was a child, my father liked to watch dramas very much, and I was influenced by him and had a little hobby in this area. In the past, there were often opera troupes singing in the countryside, but now people like to listen to pop music, and there are fewer and fewer people listening to operas. ”

Li Yanhong listened, and then asked on this topic: "Opera is an artistic treasure of our nation, since opera has such an important historical position, why did it decline?"

Su Qingzhi thought for a while and replied: "Opera is our artistic treasure, but if this halo is removed, it will only be a way for people to entertain and entertain, and when no one needs this way anymore one day, that is, when it completely walks off the stage of history." ”

"Not only opera, but nothing can escape the wheel of social progress and the baptism of time. ”

Li Yanhong asked: "Is Baidu the same?"

Su Qingzhi said with a smile: "I remember that Boss Li once said that as long as you can not forget your original intention, Baidu may not be able to be a century-old enterprise." ”

Li Yanhong said "oh" and asked with interest, "What did I say?"

Su Qingzhi said: "Boss Li once said that do what you like and are good at, do not follow the trend, do not waver. ”

Li Yanhong laughed: "I did say this, it seems to have been said in private, I'm curious, how do you know?"

Su Qingzhi smiled, he couldn't tell Li Yanhong that he had studied him in his previous life, right?

"I have carefully studied you, and I have carefully read the book "Silicon Valley Business War" written by you, and I agree with the point of view in the book, the competition in the field of science and technology in the future belongs to the competition of new technologies, new concepts and new ideas. ”

Su Qingzhi said seriously.

In his previous life, he did study Li Yanhong, and even carefully read and studied the books related to him, such as "Silicon Valley Business War", "Life Can Go in a Straight Line", "Li Yanhong on the Left Hand, Ma Huateng on the Right Hand", etc.

Although the two of them met for the first time, Su Qingzhi believed that he was the stranger who knew Li Yanhong in the world.

Therefore, before he went to the appointment, he had a bold idea in his heart......

"Have you studied me?"

Li Yanhong was quite surprised when he heard this: "Then tell me, in your opinion, what kind of person am I?"

Su Qingzhi said: "I heard that in the development direction of Baidu, Boss Li once disagreed with investors, investors hope that Baidu will continue to do OEM, but you prefer to reclaim technology to make your own search brand...... For this reason, there was also the famous 'phone drop incident'......"

Li Yanhong listened carefully with a smile on his face, and glanced at Wang Xiao without a trace.

"There are very few people who know about such a business secret as the phone smashing incident, even within Baidu, how did Su Qingzhi know about an outsider?
