Chapter 409: Unveiling the Mystery of Xiangjiang
Why did Zhang Tianyuan come to HK in advance, in fact, to be able to adapt to life here as much as possible, including being familiar with traffic rules. Fortunately, he is very capable of learning now, so it didn't take much time to get these done, which was changed before, and it was estimated that it would definitely not be possible to do it in ten days and half a month.
"Don't worry, you won't be in trouble. Zhang Tianyuan may have had low self-esteem before, but from the moment he gained his ability, he became very confident, no matter who he faced, he could be confident.
I don't know which book I've seen before, girls are men who like self-confidence, men who can bring them a sense of security, and it is precisely Zhang Tianyuan who has done this, plus his hardware is also good, so it is normal to naturally attract Liu Mengxun.
Even when he had no money, Zhang Tianyuan was neither humble nor arrogant in front of Liu Mengxun, and he didn't look down on himself at all, so he rushed to this self-confidence, and many people couldn't do it.
"By the way, Mengxun, there are two bags in the back of the car, I bought you the clothes, I know that you must be wearing thin clothes when you come back, so I bought two thick clothes, hurry up and change them. Zhang Tianyuan said to Liu Mengxun, who was sitting on the side.
Liu Mengxun looked back, there were indeed two paper bags there, looking at the brand, it was a brand she usually liked very much, although it was not the most expensive, but it was very comfortable to wear.
As soon as her heart warmed, she was about to take it and change it, but after thinking about it, this is the car, and there is a man sitting next to her, is it appropriate to change clothes?
"Why don't I pull over, there's a place in front of you to park, and you can change in the back." Close the curtains and no one can see it. "Zhang Tianyuan is very understanding.
Although Liu Mengxun thought that Zhang Tianyuan was his boyfriend. But she was still a little shy, she really couldn't do it when she changed clothes in front of Zhang Tianyuan. So he nodded. After Zhang Tianyuan parked the car on the side of the road, she got out of the car and went to the back, and then began to change her clothes.
"Don't peek!" Finding that Zhang Tianyuan showed signs of turning his head, Liu Mengxun hurriedly shouted.
"Hehe, they're all old husbands and wives, and there won't be a piece of meat missing. Because the car was parked on the side, Zhang Tianyuan didn't have to worry about hitting anyone, so he was a lot more relaxed at this time and joked.
Although Zhang Tianyuan was not very good at falling in love before. But there have been too many romance films recently, whether it is Korean, Japanese or domestic, it's the same set when you come over, either you are rich and handsome, or you are a silk counterattack on Bai Fumei, anyway, it seems that you don't feel like leftovers are unpalatable.
He doesn't like to watch those TV series, but when he is with his family and friends, he will inevitably be affected a little, and he has also learned some oily tones on TV.
Of course. This oily tone won't be used in front of strangers, but for your girlfriend, it doesn't matter, just kidding. On the contrary, it can enhance the relationship between the two parties.
Liu Meng saw that Zhang Tianyuan was about to turn his head to look, picked up the newspaper in the back seat of the car and threw it to Zhang Tianyuan and said, "Turn your head to read the newspaper, don't peek." If you peek at me again, I won't change it, and you will be responsible for catching a cold when the time comes. ”
"Hey, hey. I'm responsible, I'm responsible. "Zhang Tianyuan is completely a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water.
"Please, evening. Makes you ...... in the evening"
"How's the evening?"
"Oh, that's it at night, anyway, don't think crookedly now. Liu Mengxun almost cried.
Zhang Tianyuan smiled and said: "Okay, okay, okay, I'm kidding you, don't care, I read the newspaper, read the newspaper! But why are these newspapers all traditional characters, and there are so many obstructive English!"
"Can't you understand?"
"I can understand it, but I feel really uncomfortable. Zhang Tianyuan actually has no opinion on simplified or traditional characters, he is mainly used to using simplified characters and reading books in simplified characters, so he is very annoyed by this uncomfortable state, just like the habit of driving.
When Zhang Tianyuan was born, the mainland had already begun to implement simplified characters, so he received a cultural education in simplified characters since he was a child. At that time, HK was still a British colony, so the most commonly used scripts for HK were English and Chinese Traditional. Not only that, even the way of writing in Chinese traditional Chinese is very different from that of simplified characters, which leads to Zhang Tianyuan Although he can read and understand traditional characters, he is really not suitable for that reading method, and he is just a little irritable in his heart.
But it's not a problem, this thing needs to be adapted, and it will be adapted slowly, after all, in ancient times, people had some things from right to left, and they were also vertically arranged. Because Zhang Tianyuan studied archaeology, he has also read a lot of ancient books, and he may not be used to this thing for a while, but if he has read too much, it is estimated that it will be nothing.
For the place HK, the people of Zhang Tianyuan's era understood it too deeply, and he used to sing a song when he was a child, comparing HK to the Pearl of the Orient. I believe that everyone at that time knew a lot about Hong Kong, and even had a special feeling for HK, especially the post-80s generation, who almost grew up under the influence of HK TV and movie culture.
From the 80s to the mainland of pop songs, trendy clothing, and the streets and alleys that opened all over the video hall showing HK movies, at that time there were few cinemas in the mainland, but the video hall was very prosperous, and the video hall often played some three-level films from Hong Kong, to be honest, Zhang Tianyuan's budding teachers are not those in Japan, but these from Hong Kong and Taiwan, such as Li Lizhen and Shu Qi.
Including these films, they all told the people of the mainland about a mysterious and peculiar HK, and at that time, in the eyes of Zhang Tianyuan, HK was where the rich lived, and where the rich went.
In the 80s and early 90s, the most popular electronic watches, walkmans, bell bottoms, etc., made it fashionable for young people across the country to have something made in Hong Kong.
Self-employed people in many cities have gone to Nanxun, Dongguang and other places to buy some so-called parallel goods produced in HK. Then go back to their respective cities to practice stalls, commonly known as "inverted masters". It has also created the first batch of self-employed people in China who have become wealthy. Of course, Nanxun's openness. That was also because of HK, when many wealthy people from HK bought land and built factories there.
People born in the sixties and seventies, because of the relatively small number of TVs, may not watch many films, but when the post-80s were born, domestic TVs gradually increased. So like the original smash hit Hong Kong-made "Huo Yuanjia", as well as Huang Rihua's version of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", Tony Leung's version of "The Legend of the Deer and Ding", Andy Lau's version of "The Condor Heroes", and Chow Yun-fat's "Shanghai Tang".
When it was popular, everyone would hum a few Cantonese songs that didn't know what the words meant. Zhang Tianyuan remembers most clearly that when he was in school, there was a classmate in the class who was very good at singing Cantonese songs, but when he asked him what the lyrics meant, he didn't know, he just hummed along.
The 80s of the 20th century was not only the day when HK Cantopop music flourished, but also the heyday of HK music scene. At that time, HK pop songs led the trend of Chinese songs in Asia, although residents in some parts of the mainland and the treasure island area did not understand Cantonese. I also love to listen to Cantopop songs. Xu Guanjie, Gu Jiahui, Huang Zhan and others actively participated in the songwriting, and Beyond member Huang Jiaju insisted on original music and vigorously promoted local music. However, there were still not many original songs at that time, and most of the Cantonese pop songs were adapted from songs written from other places with Chinese lyrics, and most of the adapted songs were composed by Japanese.
In the 1980s, Xu Xiaofeng, Alan Tam, Leslie Cheung, and Anita Mui dominated the HK music scene. These singers have fans in all Chinese regions and are more active in films. It is a box office guarantee, and the sound and color are complete. Other smash hits from the late 80s to the early 1990s include Beyond, Luo Wen, Lin Zixiang, Wang Jie, Anita Mui, Xu Xiaofeng, Chen Baiqiang, Ye Qianwen, Lin Yilian, Chen Huixian, Kwan Shuyi, Li Keqin, Daming faction, Grasshopper Band, Faye Wong and the Four Heavenly Kings Jacky Cheung, Andy Lau, Li Ming and Aaron Kwok. These singers/groups have all shined in the Chinese music scene.
By the mid-to-late 80s, when Chow Yun-fat's version of the movie "The True Colors of Heroes" was introduced to the mainland, there were more groups of young people on the road wearing windbreakers and combing their heads. Later, there was any "God of Gamblers" series, it was too late, anyway, at that time, many people even called HK actors stars, and mainland actors as actors, as if mainland actors were inferior, but at that time, it was that state, after all, the HK film and television industry was too prosperous at that time, and the mainland lacked influential works.
For a time, East Asian governments only allowed Hong Kong films to be imported, which gave Hong Kong the nickname "Hollywood of the East": Leslie Cheung, Bruce Lee, Wong Kar-wai, John Woo, Tsui Hark, Ann Hui, Chen Guo, Chow Yun-fat, Jet Li, Jackie Chan, Maggie Cheung, Andy Lau, Tony Leung, Nicholas Tse, Leung Ka-fai, and Stephen Chow all enjoyed international fame. The HK International Film Festival and HK Film Awards, held in March and April every year, are the annual events of the HK film industry.
If you want to talk about the word star, in fact, it also came from that meeting, at that time, which young man didn't post a few celebrity pictorials in his room? At that time, it was the most popular thing, and it was even crazier than young people chasing stars now.
However, since the return of HK, the mainland has gradually surpassed HK in many aspects due to its rapid development, and after the mysterious veil of HK has been torn off, it is not as mysterious as imagined.
Nowadays, there are many celebrities in the mainland, and pop culture has begun to involve Hollywood, South Korea, Japan, and even Thailand and other places, and it is no longer possible to learn about those entertainment works through guòHK as in the past.
Now that the Internet is so developed, a Hollywood blockbuster can be found on almost all domestic websites from its release to its official release. Now chasing stars is not only HK stars, some people like mainland film and television stars, some people like Hong Kong and Taiwan, some people like South Korea and Japan, of course, there are many people like European and American stars, especially Hollywood film and television stars.
After all, the culture is more diverse now than it was in the past, which makes HK less important in this regard. If it had been changed, Zhang Tianyuan would have screamed when he came to HK, but now, that's it.
"HK is too crowded now! It's a shame that there are too many people in the past in such a small place, and now there is no way to restrict mainlanders from traveling. Zhang Tianyuan sighed and said. (To be continued......)
