Chapter 369: A Sad Answer
Everyone's expectations for electronica Hannover are different.
Li Yunhai: They have participated in one exhibition, so they are more demanding. And even if the company comes for the first time, it would be good to just be able to make a bill.
He didn't have the heart to go to other people's booths to show off his achievements.
After work, everyone went their separate ways.
Li Yunhai and Shen Xiulan came to a restaurant to eat and took a walk together after eating.
Hanover am Rhine is noticeably more beautiful at night than during the day.
Hannover is also a city of culture, with numerous art festivals taking place every year.
Coincidentally, there was an art festival opening, and advertisements could be seen everywhere on the streets.
Li Yunhai discussed it with Shen Xiulan and went to watch.
The art exhibition is located near the Hannover Government Palace and is also open to the public in the evenings.
Li Yunhai and Shen Xiulan bought tickets and came in, and saw a dazzling array of artworks inside, including paintings, handicrafts, and sculptures.
Western literature and art are relatively open, whether it is paintings or statues, there are masterpieces of the human body with red stripes.
Li Yunhairao has a very open mind, and it is still difficult to accept this kind of work when he sees that the walls and rooms are full of this kind of work.
Shen Xiulan was even more red-faced, and couldn't help but take Li Yunhai's hand and said, "Why is their art like this?" Without the human body, they wouldn't be able to create? ”
Li Yunhai smiled dumbly, and didn't know how to say this for a while.
Western artistic creation is a visual reproduction of the delicate muscles and the flexibility of the bones and joints.
Oriental art makes full use of the external conditions to wrap the imagery, alluding to the inner temperament and imagination of the human body.
In the soil of China's feudal society, it is impossible to bloom the artistic flower of the ancient Greek period that expresses the body's fitness, strong physique, and exposed chest and abdomen. Nor could there be a female figure like Venus with a lot of skin and a statue of a man like David.
Throughout the history of painting in China, the most beautiful are the pictures of ladies and landscapes.
Shen Xiulan looked at the vivid male statue, she couldn't stand it, and said to Li Yunhai: "Let's go!" What's so nice about this! Shame on you! ”
Li Yunhai said with a smile: "If we look at it with a critical and appreciative eye, we will feel that it is nothing more than that. To put it bluntly, art is line and color. The statue is nothing more than a stone. ”
Shen Xiulan said: "According to what you say, then every woman is just bone and flesh, isn't it all the same?" ”
Li Yunhai said: "Hey, then we need to explore this topic in more depth." ”
In front of it, another statue of a woman appeared.
Shen Xiulan covered her mouth lightly and said, "Look, this is really obscene!" Is it necessary to show a woman's body so delicately? ”
Li Yunhai said: "It's just a stone, calm down." ”
Shen Xiulan pulled him out: "Don't look at it!" Let's go! ”
Li Yunhai had to follow her out, and the exhibition hall on the other side was full of paintings.
But the characters in the painting are also extremely open.
Shen Xiulan's face has always been red, and it has never been white.
"I can't imagine that even you can't appreciate Western body art!" Li Yunhai said, "During the folk period, many people in my country went to Europe and the United States to study, and they studied Western painting, among which there was a female student who learned very well, and after she returned to China, she continued to engage in Western body painting, but she could not find a model. It's hard to find such models even now, let alone before. She couldn't find a model, so she drew herself in the mirror. ”
Shen Xiulan said: "Huh? Can that be exhibited? ”
Li Yunhai said: "Her husband sent her to learn painting, and she could accept her painting for others, but he couldn't accept her to use her own body paintings for exhibition, so the two had a conflict and divorced." ”
Shen Xiulan said: "Until now, not many people in China can accept it, right?" Can you accept it? ”
Li Yunhai shook his head and said, "I can't accept it!" But it's okay to appreciate other people's work. ”
Shen Xiulan said: "I know you're boring!" I think these paintings are also very ordinary, they don't have much artistic value, I still like domestic paintings, and they have a sense of meaning. ”
Li Yunhai said: "People are realistic, you insist on talking about artistic conception, then they still tell you that Chinese painting is not realistic enough!" ”
Shen Xiulan said: "The gongbi paintings are also very realistic, even the fluff on the bee's wings is drawn, but it doesn't catch the human body like Westerners." ”
Li Yunhai saw that she was disgusted, and said with a smile: "Okay, let's go shopping." ”
The two walked out of the art exhibition and took a walk on the banks of the Rhine.
Li Yunhai took Shen Xiulan's hand.
Shen Xiulan twitched her hand in shock, but she didn't pull it out, and looked around to see that it was all foreigners, and it was up to him.
Li Yunhai said: "In fact, autumn in Hanover is the most beautiful. ”
"Why?"
"There are a lot of vineyards here, which are rich in wine, and autumn is the ripening season, so we can drink fresh wine."
"There are no exhibitions here in the fall."
"When we are free, we will travel here together, not for business, but for fun."
"We? Me and you? Or is there someone else? ”
"Just the two of us, okay?"
"Not good!"
"There's a tavern in front, would you like to go in and have a drink?" A taste of Hannover's fine wines? ”
"Okay!"
The two came to the tavern.
As soon as I opened the door, there was a heat wave inside.
The tavern was not large, with a dozen tables and a dozen people seated, and a small three-person band playing in the corner.
Li Yunhai went to the bar and ordered two glasses of wine, and sat at a table by the window with Shen Xiulan.
Shen Xiulan listened to the lingering music and asked, "Yunhai, what kind of song is this?" Very nice to hear. ”
Li Yunhai said: "If you want to test me for something else, I really don't know, but I happen to know this song." It's called: Adrina at the water's edge. ”
"Why such a strange name?"
"There's a story in this, Adelina is derived from Greek mythology. It tells the story of a lonely king who sculpted a beautiful maiden to accompany him, and the king fell in love with the sculpture every day, touching the god of love, and the god of love gave life to the sculpture. The theme of this song is: Beginning to love you is the meaning I give to life. ”
"What a beautiful story! But can such a story be true? ”
"Myths! If you replace the statue with a real woman, if there is a king who likes you like this, will it also develop feelings? ”
"Makes sense! Two people have been together for a long time, and it is really easy to have feelings. That's how it started between you and Lin Zhi, right? ”
"Huh? We're in this together, don't talk about this. ”
"No, I'm going to say! Yunhai, let me ask you, between you and Lin Zhi, you pursued her first? Or is she pursuing you? Truth be told, you know I can tell if you're lying. ”
"She's chasing me."
"Women chase men, compartment yarn, sure enough! You can't say no! ”
"Xiulan, the story of me and Lin Zhi has no twists and turns as imagined. After I broke up with you, I was with her for several months before we had a relationship. At that time, I often went to Huacheng to buy, and she liked to follow me to play, once when we stayed in a hotel in Huacheng, her letter of introduction was lost, and we went to the White Swan Hotel to stay, where the room fee was too expensive. So—"
"So you're living together?"
"Well, at that time she said that the room fee was too expensive, let's open a room! Two meters of rice, one person sleeps half. I didn't think much about it before I agreed. And then you know. ”
"I don't know! Who took the initiative? She? ”
"This? Now I can't remember. Who took the initiative, and now says this, what makes the difference? ”
"Of course there is a difference! If you take the initiative, it means that you are abusive! If she takes the initiative, it means that she is a vixen and she seduces you. ”
"Xiulan, in fact, under the premise of mutual affection, whoever takes the initiative is the same, there is no difference. Love is not restraint, but an expression of bravery. Just like the Western art we see, they are so straightforward, they express what they think in their hearts. ”
"I can't appreciate it! You just can't resist Linzhi's body, so you're with her. Isn't it? ”
"You can't say that."
"And you love her?"
"Of course."
What a sad answer!
Shen Xiulan stopped talking, picked up the cup, tilted her neck, and drank a glass of wine.
When Li Yunhai wanted to dissuade her, it was too late.
Shen Xiulan touched her neck, swallowed the wine in her mouth hard, choked and coughed, and tears rushed out.
Li Yunhai took out two tissues and handed them to her.
Shen Xiulan took the tissue, covered her mouth and coughed a few more times, her pretty face flushed.
Li Yunhai said: "How can you drink like this? You're going to get drunk for sure! ”
Shen Xiulan said resentfully: "I'm drunk, it's also my business, and you don't have to take responsibility." ”
"How can you say that? It really chills my heart. ”
"Humph! You're just chilling! My heart is long dead, and there is no place to die! ”
"Xiulan, don't do this."
Shen Xiulan got up and walked out.
Li Yunhai caught up and grabbed her hand.
Shen Xiulan shook his hand and said, "Don't touch me!" I knew that all you liked was a woman's beautiful body! That's true for Nyingchi, and it's true for me! Even the cold stone of the art exhibition, you love it so much! And those soulless paintings on the walls, you like it too! As long as it's a beautiful woman, you like it. ”
Li Yunhai couldn't cry or laugh, he decided not to be reasonable anymore, but just followed her all the way forward.
Who knows, he can't do it without talking.
Shen Xiulan glanced at him and said, "What's wrong?" Lost money? Can't say anything to refute it? ”
Li Yunhai said: "Yes, yes, you are right!" ”
Shen Xiulan raised her leg and kicked him gently: "I hate you!" ”
Li Yunhai laughed and said, "The front is the café where we had the last date, let's go in and sit down?" ”
Shen Xiulan looked at the small café and said, "No, my stomach is a little uncomfortable, and I don't want to drink coffee anymore." ”
At this time, it suddenly began to rain in the sky.
Li Yunhai took her hand and ran into the café.
Last year, when they were drinking coffee here, it was raining in the sky.
I didn't expect it to be the case today.
This spring rain in Hanover is really amorous!
Li Yunhai ordered two cups of coffee and sat down with Shen Xiulan to drink.
Revisiting the old place is the easiest thing for women to feel.
Shen Xiulan touched the scene and asked, "What other poems does Byron have?" ”
Li Yunhai said: "I specially bought this Byron's poem and read it, I remember such a poem: I want the two of us to break up in the past, silently crying, feeling years of isolation, we can't help but be heartbroken; Your face is cold and pale, and your kiss is more cold. Your oaths are all broken, and your actions are so frivolous: I am humiliated when your name is mentioned......"
"Why are they all love poems?"
"Because love poems can touch people's hearts the most, they can be handed down. One of his most famous love poems is: If I see you again, how will I greet you after all these years? In silence, with tears. ”
"Huh? I think I've heard of this poem. ”
"Well, that's pretty well written."
"Alas! It seems that he has also fallen out of love, otherwise he would not have been able to write such poetry. ”
"So he also wrote such a poem: A man's love is only a part of a man's life, but love is the whole of a woman's life."
"He wrote that, too? Interesting! A ruthless person, but writing the most affectionate poems! ”
"You're right. In his popular social life, where love is everywhere, the romance of a young aristocratic poet is naturally more talked about. His daughter was an amazing person, though. ”
"Why?"
Byron's daughter, Ada Lovelace, is the founder of computer programs. She established the concept of loops and subroutines, formulated algorithms for computational programs, is regarded as the world's first software designer, and was a century ahead of her time in the world of computers. The United States also named a computer language Ada language. ”
"That's amazing! It's amazing! ”
The two chatted, and time flew by.
Outside the window, the rain was falling incessantly and fluttering, as if deliberately leaving the young lovers to sit in this café for a long time.
It was late at night, and the rain stopped.
Li Yunhai and Shen Xiulan returned to the hotel.
"Rest early, Shirlan." Li Yunhai said and walked to his room.
Shen Xiulan suddenly said, "Yunhai, come here." ”
Li Yunhai looked at her in amazement.
"Come here." Shen Xiulan said again.
Li Yunhai walked into her room.
Shen Xiulan closed the door, turned around and hugged him.
"Yunhai, I'm afraid of being separated from you, I'm afraid I'll never see you again. I don't want to be depressed and unexpected, as Byron wrote in his poem. ”
"No one drove you away."
"I thought about leaving you, I thought about it last night, I thought about it all night, I was so miserable!"
Li Yunhai cupped her face and said distressedly: "Xiulan, I said, you don't have to be like this, the relationship between us should be relaxed, and we should be happy together, not so painful." ”
Shen Xiulan kissed him on the lips.
The two quickly rolled onto the bed.
The next morning, Li Yunhai woke up from Shen Xiulan's bed.
Shen Xiulan was still sleeping, and an arm like jade was on his body. There was a slight flush on her delicate pink face, like a ripe apple.
Li Yunhai leaned down and kissed her lightly on the face.
Shen Xiulan moved her long eyelashes, pouted and asked, "What time is it?" ”
Li Yunhai said: "It's still early, you can sleep for ten minutes." ”
Shen Xiulan sneered: "Ten minutes? It's better not to sleep! Sleeping with you, it's really comfortable, I didn't have any dreams, and I slept until I woke up naturally. ”
Li Yunhai stroked her tender lotus-like arm and said, "Then you have wasted a day?" It's rare for us to come out together, and this time belongs to us together. ”
"Who made you me off?"
"How can I make you angry?"
"You have it!"
"Okay, you're right."
"You go over quickly, and they see it, and you don't know how to guess."
Li Yunhai also knew that the matter was serious, so he quietly opened the door, looked in the corridor first, and saw that there was no one, so he returned to his room.
As soon as he entered, he heard a knock on the door.
Li Yunhai opened the door and saw Lin Xiaofeng.
"Auntie, get up so early?"
"Yunhai, I was looking for you last night, are you not there?"
"Oh, I went to see an art show, and it was pretty good. You can also check it out. ”
"I discussed with David if we could advertise a little bit in Hanover's prominent squares and streets?"
"The electronics show is only nine days away, and we are advertising now, so it's too late, right? Nothing good will work either. Why don't you make a billboard outside the pavilion? ”
"That's okay, we all know that the company is short of money and has a hard time, and we also want to give more advice to the company and pull orders."
"yes, I know."
In the morning, everyone came to the exhibition hall, and David went to contact the organizing committee to advertise.
There are also advertisements in the exhibition hall, and on the ceiling of the exhibition hall, there are rows of advertising slogans, and the slogans are very large, and people who pass by can see them.
David soon returned, shrugged his shoulders regretfully, and said, "There are no more advertising slots." They say that if we want to advertise, we have to apply in advance. ”
Li Yunhai said: "Forget it, we are doing the business of buyers anyway, and buyers are all mobile, walking around the exhibition hall, they can always see our booth." Our good service is the best advertisement. ”
Everyone also said that this is the truth.
As soon as it started today, there was an endless stream of businessmen who came to the booth.
Li Yunhai and others concentrated on coping.
Several men and women walked in, and an old man in his 60s wearing a top hat pointed to the alien advertising paper on the wall and asked, "Is this computer advertised by MJ made by your company?" ”
Li Yunhai said: "It's our company. This computer is called Alien. ”
The old man nodded calmly: "Very good, I have seen MJ's commercials, this computer is also very good, I will purchase 50,000 units!" ”
Li Yunhai and the others were dumbfounded, crying and laughing.
The old man asked confusedly, "What's the matter?" Don't sell it to me? ”
Li Yunhai smiled bitterly and said, "Hello, sir, our alien computers are all sold out. The 386 chips ordered at Intel will not be available for more than three months. ”
The old man's face was incredulous: "Huh? That is to say, I don't have to sell it now, do you? Aren't you manufacturers? The manufacturer also has no stock? ”
Li Yunhai thought to himself, if it weren't for Intel's sudden tightening of authorization, we would have made at least hundreds of millions of dollars on alien computers this year!
Thinking of this, Li Yunhai's heart tingled.
He coughed lightly and said to the old man: "Because of the chip production capacity, we can't provide alien computers now, but we have a very good blue ocean computer, the configuration is lower than that of aliens, but the price is very low, only 2,000 US dollars." Would you like to come over here and have a look? ”
The old man's eyes were only fixed on the alien computer next to MJ, and he said, "I want this kind of computer!" When will you have the goods? I'll order it again! (End of chapter)
