The three of them couldn't help but look at each other. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Kaohsiung looked at me and said, "Do you have to be so destructive?" ”

I said, "You don't have to be blind, okay." It's not destructive. It's the reducing power. The ability to restore the truth. ”

The painter shrugged his shoulders at them and said in French: "Women." You all know, woman. ”

Kaohsiung sighed deeply. He pulled the money out of his pocket, he handed it to the painter, and he said thank you.

The painter asked him in French, "That lady, what was she just talking about?" ”

Kaohsiung replied to him in French: "She is saying that wasting a gentleman's money, talent and time in all ways is a woman's greatest hobby and highest achievement." ”

He smiled again and shook the painter's hand, and he said, "Thank you." ”

We continue our walk along the banks of the Seine.

"Do you have to be like this when you're together?" Mr. Yichen said.

Kaohsiung followed his words and said: "Yes, Xinxin, every time we are together, do you have to talk to me like this?" ”

I said, "Don't you secretly like this in your heart?" ”

Kaohsiung stopped.

He glared at me and said, "You, really, yes, too, understand, me." ”

After returning from a walk on the banks of the Seine, Mr. Yichen and Kaohsiung had such a conversation.

Mr. Yichen said: "To be honest, after so many years, you have always been separated. I asked you, and each of you flatly denied that you had feelings for each other. However, when you are together, I always feel that there is no emotion between you. ”

Mr. Yichen said: "You are also past the age of hippie smiles and game life. Ask yourself, have you never wanted to live with her? ”

Kaohsiung said: "Why haven't you thought about it. The first time I saw her, I thought, but unfortunately, she never looked down on me. I was never her first choice, nor was I second, nor was I third. She'd rather marry a bastard who would tell her to break her arm than choose me. ”

Mr. Yichen said, "Who told you to get married first?" ”

Kaohsiung said, "Should I sit back and wait for her to ruthlessly abandon me to be single?" ”

He said: "I have lost my relationship, should I lose my dignity?" ”

Mr. Yichen said: "You are always so cynical, how can she confirm your sincerity?" ”

Kaohsiung said: "To tell you the truth, I don't necessarily have to marry her. Growing up, we were all too familiar with each other. It's so familiar that I can't make it feel like we're not together for a moment. Whoever marries or not, it's just a formality. ”

Mr. Yichen looked at Kaohsiung.

Kaohsiung asked, "Why are you staring at me like this?" ”

Mr. Yichen said, "You have to be honest with yourself. ”

Kaohsiung said, "Okay. -- What I just said was her standard answer. If you already knew how all the plots were going to play out in a book, and you already knew what the ending would be, would you still flip through it? ”

Mr. Yichen said: "Maybe try it, something different will happen?" ”

Kaohsiung said, "No. I don't want to touch the place where she's hiding it anymore. I don't want to disturb her. ――Wouldn't it be nice to be a parallel river that flows to the sea in different directions? ”

Later, Mr. Yichen relayed to me this conversation between them that day. He always wants to fulfill us.

Mr. Yichen said: "That day, Kaohsiung said that he didn't want to touch the place where you deliberately hid. He doesn't want to disturb you. He said that it is good to be a parallel river, with different paths to the same end. ”

After listening to Mr. Yichen's words, I said, "He, really, too, understands, me." ”

After returning from the Paris Book Fair, we came back via Taiwan.

During that time, the whole people of Taiwan were hotly discussing a very sensational local movie called "Haijiao No. 7". Our counterparts in Taiwan enthusiastically recommended that we must see it.

So, on the night of our arrival in Taipei, the three of us specially watched this film together on the Internet.

Less than 20 minutes after the film was released, Kaohsiung began to yawn, and he yawned again and again, so that Mr. Yichen and I were not in the mood to watch it.

Mr. Yichen couldn't help but press the pause button and suggested that Kaohsiung go to his own room to sleep.

Kaohsiung stood up and said, "I really don't understand you, and I don't understand the Taiwanese, what is there to watch such a dull film." ”

He said: "I especially can't get used to the kid played by Fan Yichen at the beginning of the film, he has a very good guitar, and he smashes it so hard." If you don't mix well, you should beat yourself up, big man, why take a guitar to vent your anger. Weakness, boredom. ”

I said, "Would you like to read it first and then comment?" ”

Kaohsiung said: "I don't have to read it to know what it says." Taiwanese people have a concubine mentality towards Japan, feeling that they have been abandoned for many years, and finally found a sense of security in the arms of Japan, and they are reluctant to give up on it. I hope to find another strong man to protect myself from coercion on the other side. Isn't it? ”

Mr. Yichen and I looked at each other.

Mr. Yichen is Japanese.

I said, "Brother Kaohsiung! ”

Kaohsiung woke up, and he said to Mr. Yichen: "I'm sorry. You are too knowledgeable in Sinology, you are so Chinese that you are superb, and there is no trace of spring dreams, and I sometimes forget that you are not Chinese. ”

He said, "I'm not targeting you. ”

Mr. Yichen smiled and said, "No need to explain, I know you can't target me." Well, if you don't like it, go to bed. ”

Kaohsiung said: "No way, born a bandit, I am middle-aged and unliterate." ”

After Kaohsiung went to sleep, Mr. Yichen and I watched the film seriously.

Mr. Yichen asked me, "Is it good-looking?" ”

I nodded.

I said, "The lines are beautifully written. ”

Mr. Yichen said, "Yes. A rainbow across both ends. An angel like you should have wings and a name. Stay, or, I'll go with you. I'm not abandoning you, I'm reluctant to give you up. ”

He asked me, "What else do you see besides the lines?" ”

I said, "Screen." I saw the screen. No matter how beautiful the movie is, no matter how touching the parting of life and death, it is just a shadow. Underneath the shadows, the screen is always motionless. ”

I said, "There is no politics, no pathos, no history, no love and longing. Only the screen. ”

Mr. Yichen smiled and said, "Not only is your ability to destruct amazing, but your ability to deconstruct is also amazing. ”

I said, "It's the ability to reduce." Just revert. Return things to their roots. ”

Mr. Yichen: "There is an illusion that many people are unwilling to overcome as creators. ”

I said, "What hallucination?" ”

Mr. Yichen said: "Actually, no one has ever fallen in love with your work. They just take what they need. ”

I said, "Let's watch this movie and take what we need." ”

I said, "In the same way, the love of a man and a woman is usually the same. No one has ever fallen in love with us, and those who claim to love us are just taking what they need, but because there are certain elements in us that satisfy their physical or psychological needs, and that's it. ”

Mr. Yichen said, "It is normal for works to be misread and misunderstood. Love is also mostly born because of misunderstandings. ”

He said: "I said it so directly, I hope it doesn't spoil your mood. I've been facing the lead word for too long, and I don't know much about romance for a long time. ”

I smiled and I said, "What does it matter." You're quite right. As a writer, it is the destiny of the writer to let his works be displayed in the world, and let the benevolent people see the benevolent people, and each takes what he needs. ”
