Chapter 607: 605. What I’m Doing

Chapter 607 605. What I'm doing

"Xu Jun, do you know? In a survey conducted last year, among 500 Japanese young people, among 500 Japanese young people, "The Unspeakable Secret" surpassed the second place by 11.3%. ratio, and won the first place among young people's favorite pure love movies. It's amazing..."

"Well, thank you. It's an honor to think that this work will be loved so much."

"This is Xu Jun's debut movie. And it was filmed during the Olympics?"

"um, yes."

"Speaking of the Olympic Games, according to the information we have, Xu Jun seems to have a position in the director team of the Olympic Games called... Da~Nai~Zou~Kan~ Is that how it is read?"

Glancing at the information in front of him, Hei Liu Chezi finished speaking, turned to the audience and the camera and said:

"Please also know that this official position can only be held by the most trusted and capable people of the ancient emperors of the Celestial Dynasty. If we interpret it in terms of our shogunate system, it is equivalent to the level of "side employment". Responsible for conveying the general's orders, And pass the report from the daimyos and veterans to the general."

Amidst the surprised eyes of the audience and Xu Xin's weird face, Hei Liu Chezi asked curiously:

"What I'm curious about is... How old was Xu Jun at that time?"

"I was born in 1986, like 20 or 21 years old."

"You are so young! Are you already in charge of such an important thing at such a young age?...The Olympic Games is a huge project, right? According to the data, there are tens of thousands of people?"

"Well... yes, from the perspective of the performance team, there are about 15,000 people in the performance team of the Olympic Games, and there are more than 7,000 staff behind the scenes who are responsible for providing support for the performance. If you add volunteers , about 60,000 people."

It was a matter of "state affairs", Xu Xin straightened his back a little more, and answered very carefully.

"So many people are under the jurisdiction of the director team. Is Xu Jun responsible for all the big and small things? Eh? Is it too exaggerated?"

"Not really."

Xu Xin quickly shook his head.

After thinking about it, he corrected:

"It's like this. As a member of the core creative team of the Olympic Games, the things I handle are all things that need to be approved by the director. Most of these jobs are mainly for the opening ceremony performances, like volunteers. There is a dedicated team of volunteers, and the performers are managed by their own people.

My role is a transition in the middle.

So... Chief Ouchi is too exaggerated. It's just coordination. The Olympic Games is not the credit of one person, or a few people.

It is a huge and systematic project. We are all ants, and the division of labor is very clear... Indeed, as the chief director, Director Zhang needs to take care of many things, and our role is to help him share them. "

"Then how did you join the Olympic team?"

"Hmm...I can drive."

"...?"

Hei Liu Chezi was taken aback.

He said in his heart, what kind of answer is this?

I heard Xu Xin say:

“I got my driver’s license relatively early. I took the driver’s license test in the summer vacation after graduating from high school. After I got the driver’s license and could go on the road, my teacher at school, Mr. Yu Zhen, was invited to participate in the creative group of the Olympic opening ceremony and attended the meeting.

Coincidentally, that day I went to visit teacher Yu’s house because of an earlier school homework video I made. Teacher Yu drank a glass of beer and couldn't drive. At that time, when Director Zhang called for a meeting, it was already time for dinner at night.

So Teacher Yu asked me to drive her to the meeting. She drank, I definitely can't just leave the teacher after sending her to the place, plus it was March at that time, Yanjing was quite cold. Teacher Yu asked me to go up with her. On the one hand, it was to avoid freezing in the car, and on the other hand, it was to teach me to increase my knowledge.

After going up, I saw Director Zhang, Director Zhang Wu and many others. The directors were having a meeting, and I, as a student, sat in the corner and listened. Then I heard Director Zhang talking about some of the ideas he envisioned... The industry of directing actually requires imagination.

I just followed his vision and drew pictures on the draft book by myself. But for the sake of confidentiality, I definitely can't take those pictures and the like, so after the meeting is over, I leave the draft in the meeting room. It happened to be seen by the director, and he thought it was pretty good, so he found me and asked me if I would like to join here.

At that time, I was in the initial team stage, and my job was to be responsible for the drawing and production of props. Then step by step to get involved... This is the reason why I participated in the Olympic Games. So...you're going to ask me how I got into the Olympics, and the answer I can give is...I can drive. "

Finally, Xu Xin made a conclusion with a rather playful reason.

But after listening to his story, Hei Liu Chezi also gave a conclusion:

"So, this is a fate rewritten because of a driver's license."

"Haha, yes. So it's actually good to learn the driver's license earlier, especially after passing the theory test. When you understand the traffic rules, then whether you have a car or not, you will subconsciously obey the traffic rules. It is also a good thing for other people. What's more...maybe it will change fate like mine."

He said something casually.

Because this interview is quite interesting except that every sentence has to be translated by Shang Yuanai.

The interview style of Ms. Heiliu Tetsuko is very approachable, just like chatting.

The focus of attention is on some things before becoming famous, or before.

It doesn't make people have too much burden.

"Tetsuko's Room" usually takes half an hour to record.

However, Xu Xin's situation is quite special.

Because translation was required on both sides, the pace of the interview was relatively slow and lasted for about an hour.

Moreover, Xu Xin could intuitively feel that the energy of the old man on the opposite side was declining.

Obviously, at the age of 77, sitting here with a straight waist is also a challenge for her.

Really admirable.

When the one-hour program ended, Xu Xin politely said to her, "You have worked hard."

Hei Liu Chezi smiled slightly, and stretched out his hand after getting up:

"Thank you Xu Jun for accepting our interview."

"You're welcome."

Xu Xin smiled and shook hands with her, and finally took a picture at the recording site and said goodbye to her.

Participating in "Tetsuko's Room" is also his last trip today.

After confirming that he had nothing to do next, he asked Shang Yuanai to call him from the contact information given by the old man.

The person on the phone introduced himself as "Oda Takazuki" and was Takakura Ken's nanny. After hearing that Xu Xin wanted to visit, he asked Takakura Ken, and the other party readily agreed, but it was not at night.

Instead, it was agreed until 9 o'clock tomorrow morning.

The original words are translated as:

"Mr. Takakura Ken will sweep the couch at home and wait."

Xu Xin will have the last interview for "The Piano" tomorrow morning. If Takakura Ken doesn't say this, he will ask if he can come tonight.

But after hearing the translation, he knew that the other party attached great importance to this meeting.

So I agreed without saying a word.

On the way back to the city, he said directly to Su Meng:

"Mengmeng, iron the dress tonight, and I will wear it tomorrow morning."

"Okay, Brother Xu."

Then, Xu Xin called the old man again and asked what he should pay attention to when meeting Gao Cangjian.

"There is nothing to pay attention to, he is a very easy to get in touch with. And he is not unfamiliar with you, we often mention you in correspondence."

Hearing this, Xu Xin felt relieved.

So, at 6 o'clock in the morning on the 5th, Xu Xin boarded a commercial vehicle driven by a Japanese driver and headed for Hakone, which is famous for its hot springs. (Note 1)

The distance is 90 kilometers.

After squinting in the car for an hour, I arrived near a temple in Hakone.

Fade Temple.

The place where Takakura Ken's dead wife is buried.

In his later years, he bought a piece of land on the edge of Fade Temple, built a house, and lived a life of living alone and accompanying his wife.

After seeing the gate of the temple, Xu Xin fastened his tie.

He brought this evening dress this time.

But it’s okay, after changing the bow tie to a tie, it is very suitable for formal occasions.

After walking for a while, he saw a very rich manor gate.

There was a very elegant looking woman in a kimono standing at the gate.

Aged around 40.

After the commercial vehicle stopped and Xu Xin got off, she bent down and bowed:

"Welcome, Xu Xinsang. I am Mr. Gao Cang's nanny Oda Takazuki. Please follow me. Mr. Gao Cang is waiting for you."

Although she was the only one to greet her, Xu Xin could directly feel how much the other party valued her when she saw her wearing a very delicate kimono.

So carrying the box of ginseng as a gift, he followed Oda Takazuki who was walking in small steps, and walked into the manor.

The weather in Hakone in November is getting colder.

But the door of the entire Japanese-style manor was open. He was also wearing a dark blue kimono with two hydrangea-like decorations on his chest. The old man who looked serious stood in front of the entrance and looked at him.

looks very grand.

When he came to the door, Takazuki Oda stepped aside, and Xu Xin took the initiative to take a step forward:

"Hello, Mr. Gao Cang, I'm Xu Xin."

"Um!"

Gray-haired Takakura Ken nodded, and a smile slowly bloomed on his face under the same resolute temperament as before:

"Huan, hard, you, Xiao Xu!"

Following these words, he walked down the hallway, smiled and held out his hand.

And when Xu Xin grasped it, the other hand patted him on the shoulder:

"Happy Hard!"

According to the etiquette of hospitality, you should first go to the main room to sit down and talk with each other when you enter the door.

But Ken Takakura did not.

Xu Xin can feel that he attaches great importance to this meeting with himself, which can be seen from his meticulous kimono image and the cleanliness of his home.

But after exchanging greetings in the porch, he didn't go directly to chat with Xu Xin in the living room of the main room. After receiving Xu Xin's accompanying gift, he nodded to express his liking, and then handed the box of ginseng to Oda Takazuki, He led Xu Xin towards the side door of the house.

Xu Xin thought it was the living room.

As a result, after opening the door, I found that...

is the garage.

An oversized garage with at least twenty cars parked.

Some are very new, for example, Xu Xin saw a Ferrari 430 of the same model as himself... That is not right.

430 is actually an old car.

But really, really clean.

Another example is Mercedes-Benz S, BMW 7 Series, Jaguar and so on.

are all new in recent years.

But there are also some older cars.

There are all kinds of things.

While Xu Xin was thinking about what Takakura Ken was going to do with these cars, he was led directly in front of a Mitsubishi by Takakura Ken.

Opening the driver's door, the old man bent down and took out boxes about the size of folders from the driver's seat, and handed them to Xu Xin.

"Look, one, look."

Before he said this, Xu Xin had actually noticed something was wrong.

The overall appearance of this car is ice blue, which looks quite textured. But one thing is wrong.

Japanese cars are all right-hand drive, but this car is left-hand drive.

Moreover, it does not have rear seats, but uses the same structural support as the roll cage.

There are only two seat positions for the main driver and the co-driver in the whole car.

It looks like a modified racing car.

After Xu Xin opened this folder-like box, he first saw a car key, which was a very old-fashioned key. It is embedded in the middle of the sponge pad.

Below is a line of words:

"MITSUBISHILANCE REVO5R****9A

In addition to knowing the Japanese pronunciation of Mitsubishi in the front, he is completely numb to the letters in the latter part.

don't know.

So he looked at Takakura Ken suspiciously.

But this time, Takakura Ken didn’t use Chinese anymore. After talking a lot to Shang Yuanai, Shang Yuanai nodded...

But she didn't seem to understand these things, so she translated to Xu Xin with some difficulty:

"Mr. Takakura said this car is very rare. It is the most glorious year of Mitsubishi in 1998. It is the first batch of ... evolution models specially introduced in Europe. It is a special car called WRC. The right-hand drive Mitsubishi Evolution 5 is very rare. , this batch is less than fifty. It is a gift from him to you."

Hearing this explanation, Xu Xin felt vaguely familiar with the letters WRC.

But I couldn't remember what it was for a while.

But he is not surprised that Takakura Ken sent the car...

After all, the old man’s Jaguar is still in Wuxi.

Since it is a rare model, it must have been thoughtful.

So he smiled and nodded:

"Thanks."

Hearing this, Takakura Ken smiled again, patted him on the shoulder and said:

"The procedures for the car are all in the box. It's still the same as him. I'll send it to China for you, and you come to pick it up."

"OK."

"Well, let's go."

After returning the salute, he brought Xu Xin to the main hall.

Takakura Ken's house is in a very traditional Japanese style. The main hall is like in a Japanese drama movie. It is a big tatami room with only a table for entertaining guests in the middle.

And he himself is sitting behind a pair of calligraphy and paintings that are "quiet and suitable for body and mind".

Boil water and make tea for Xu Xin himself.

It seems to be infected by this atmosphere, Shangyuan Ai's sitting posture has become that kind of kneeling.

Compared with her nervousness, Xu Xin's appearance of sitting cross-legged is much more casual.

Ken Takakura didn't mind either. When pouring water into the pot, he said:

"Heavenly Dynasty! There is a saying! An old saying!"

"..."

"Peach Blossom! Pond water! Thousand feet deep! Not as good as Wang Lun...give me love!"

After finishing this passage of Li Bai's poem, he turned his head and said to Shang Yuanai:

"In the correspondence between Zhang and I, I often mention you. He always said that he is luckier than me, because he can teach you a lot, but I can't, I can't find young people who can teach. He always I am very proud."

Xu Xin's face was actually a little red when he was told.

Nodding shyly:

"Director Zhang's words are too exaggerated, and I've only learned the surface."

"But you changed a lot of his ideas. Although he seldom mentioned it, I can see it from the letters between the two of us after "Three Shots". He attaches great importance to your opinion, and said that sometimes he is not as good as reading things." You are thorough. So...Xiao Xu, you need to help him more."

Takakura Ken looked at Xu Xin with seriousness and persistence in his eyes:

"He is a very simple person. Just like a child, he can hardly do anything and can't do anything well. As an elder brother, I am very worried about his future situation."

"..."

Looking at Xu Xin's hesitant appearance, Takakura Ken said again:

"My Chinese is not good, so I can't express my feelings directly to you. I can also understand that there must be something about him that I don't know about. But he said that I gave him after "Three Shots" Written letter, you read it. So here I express my opinion to you...

As an actor, I am like a kite, the string is in the hands of the director, not others.

As a friend, I want to respect his choice. But seeing him go astray, I can't change anything with my actions. This is my powerlessness.

As an older brother, I should have protected him so that his pure world would not be polluted. But some pollution is from the environment that he depends on to survive, and it needs people who can really enter this world to solve it.

He should not be swayed by the world, Xiao Xu, do you understand? He has proven his talent. On this road, only persistence and unwavering determination can bring him the greatest happiness. It shouldn't be like this...he was...kidnapped. "

Ai Kamihara tried to restore Ken Takakura's words as much as possible.

But the more I translate, the more confused I feel.

I don't understand who Takakura Ken is talking about... Director Zhang Yimou?

Did something happen to Director Zhang Yimou?

Never heard of it.

Indeed, the meaning of her translation can only be said to be "formula". Xu Xin believes that in some contexts of Japanese language, this passage must have a deeper meaning.

She can't translate it, but that's okay.

Xu Xin already understood.

After a little thought, he said:

"I know some things, and I also understand that you don't understand the real reason why he was dragged away. But since Director Zhang didn't tell you, and we can't communicate directly, I can't express it to you by Ms. Yuan."

Hearing this, Takakura Ken showed the appearance of "it really is".

But it was not aimed at Xu Xin, but because the old man had something to hide from him.

"But these things, I am doing. All I can explain to you is this meaning. In our country, everyone knows that I am his disciple. Therefore, since I have seen some things, I must solve them. But you don't have to worry too much, I think...with his character..."

Xu Xin thought for a while, and suddenly showed a smile:

"At present, the most important thing, I'm almost done. If you want, you can ask him in the next letter. Ask him if the thing that Xiao Xu said to be done has been completed. At the same time... I I believe that next time you two meet, he will definitely have a surprise for you."

Being an actor all his life, he can naturally tell whether some people's emotions are real or fake. After hearing Shangyuan Ai's words, Gao Cangjian looked at Xu Xin seriously for a while, and asked:

"real?"

Xu Xin didn't wait for Yuan Ai to translate this time. After feeling his emotion, he smiled and nodded:

"Um!"

"you are doing?"

"Yes."

"Almost successful?"

"um, yes."

He also reconfirmed.

On November 1st, the census has already started.

The biggest hot spot is a hot news that appeared on the day of the census.

"Beijing residents who have exceeded their births and so on can settle down as pilots."

With the help of this census, Yanjing began to carry out household registration rectification and investigation work. The goal is very clear. As a pilot project, the account consolidation strategy will be clarified before the end of December.

Strategy stipulates: Residents whose hukou should be canceled but whose hukou should be canceled should go through hukou rectification and hukou should be canceled;

Currently, it is only carried out on a pilot basis by people from Beijing.

But there are some things that can be understood with a little change of thinking.

Usually, the pilot areas are other places. When did you hear that Yanjing became a pilot city for certain strategies?

So, when this news hot spot appeared, the meaning had already been interpreted.

It opened a hole for all super-birth households.

After all, the country has already begun to see the signs of population aging.

"Plan" can no longer be planned.

Before adding the things that I had talked with the old man in advance...Xu Xin estimated that the overall strategy might not be fully released, otherwise it would be tantamount to directly negating the "plan".

But it works both ways.

Once the hole is opened, it will be easy to handle.

Once the Yanjing trial is over, then the superficial plan will continue to be maintained and gradually slow down until...

Xu Xin reckoned that it would not be too far before the opening of the second child.

This is not a speculation, but a fact right in front of us.

It's just that most people don't care about this, or don't have enough sensitivity to interpret these messages.

But the fact is already ironclad.

But the time was not up, he couldn't talk to Takakura Ken.

But...

After all, he is someone who has seen all kinds of troubles in his life. After seeing Xu Xin's determination, the joy on Gao Cangjian's face gradually faded away.

Instead, a positive color.

Sitting in front of the tea table, he looked at the young man opposite him. He put his hands on his knees, bent over and bowed his head.

Sitting cross-legged on the top of Japanese comedians, just like the "Ren Xia" he performed when he became famous, he uttered his own heroic words with a kind of gangster color but extremely loyal attitude:

"Then... everything is up to you, Xiao Xu!"

Looking at this posture, Shangyuan Ai's eyes are full of obsession.

This is Ren Xia Takakura Ken...

Even in old age, the heroic spirit is still so admirable!

And Xu Xin, who was opposite him, also nodded solemnly:

"Well, please rest assured and leave it to me!"

(Note 1: Fatokuji Temple is actually in Nara. Takakura Ken bought the land next to Nara Fatokuji Temple in his later years, and spent 700 million yen to build a mansion called "Guardian House" by fans, which is far away from his wife's The mausoleum is more than 100 meters away in a straight line. But Nara is far away from Tokyo, and I have the impression that it takes a long time to take the Shinkansen. So I set the location in Hakone, which is very suitable for recuperation.)
