    "Sister Zhang, Mr. Shen, goodbye." "Goodbye." Shen Chong waved and said goodbye to Huang Yunling. After Zhang Aijia started the car, he said: "This girl is not yet] years old, right? Rolling Stone is exploiting child labor.  "Don't she need to go to school?" "No, she just works part-time after school." Zhang Aijia explained: "Don't underestimate her. This girl is very ambitious. She said she wants to make money to go to the Conservatory of Music in Vienna.  , very hardworking. ¡°Really sensible and promising.  Shen Chong sighed in admiration and said, "I think back then, at your age, you were probably playing around like crazy, right?"  " "I was really rebellious at that time, and I went against my mother. She wouldn't let me go, so I had to go.  Zhang Aijia looked nostalgic, then sighed softly and said: "Now that I think about it, I was really ignorant before. Hey, in the blink of an eye, I am old and will be thirty soon."  " "Thirty-one flowers, the older they get, the more charming they become.  Shen Chong said with a shy face: "I like you best. When ripe, it's like a peach in June or July. It tastes juicy and tender, delicate and delicious."  " Zhang Aijia's cheeks turned red because of his ambiguous words. She glared at him and threatened: "If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will call the police and say that you are acting like a gangster and molesting women, and let the people from the Fenghua Group arrest you.  " Shen Chong laughed a few times, and after a while, he said, "You behaved a little bit differently today.  "    "What's wrong?  " "I have never been intimate with me in front of outsiders before. Tonight, he actually took the initiative to hold my hand. The beauty favored me, and I was flattered.  "    "go.  Zhang Aijia gave him a roll of her eyes and said, "There are outsiders here, so I will compromise and take care of your grown man's face."  " "She is truly a wise woman, virtuous and virtuous. What more can a husband ask for when he has such a wife?  " Zhang Aijia was thoughtful. She glanced at him secretly, and then said softly: "Luo Dayou has always been interested in me, and I don't know how to refuse, so" "I understand.  Shen Chong nodded, grinning and said, "But I'm still jealous."  " "It's not like I've done anything sorry for you.  " "When a talented man and a beautiful woman meet, they win countless battles in the world.  Shen Chong curled his lips, crossed his arms, and said, "We must guard against it and never relax for a moment."  " "Aren't you also a talented person?  "Zhang Aijia said with a smile: "I just said it casually. Besides, no one said that a talented person must be able to write songs and make music.  " "My talent is not only about speaking words into words, I tell you, I can also write songs, and I can write a song in three steps and a poem in seven steps.  Shen Chong smiled proudly, dispelled the bad thoughts in his heart, and said, "How about I write a song for you too?"  " "Then you write it.  Zhang Aijia looked at the dashboard and said: "It's still a five-minute drive from here to where I live. Shen Caizi, if you can write a song during this time, I will be devoted to you from now on.  From beginning to end.  " So far, I haven't pretended to be successful. In front of the beauty tonight, I can't make any more mistakes. Shen Chong thought for a moment, then cleared his throat and said: "One, two, three, four, I've written it.  .  " "Then you sing it and I'll listen.  " "Listen well.  "Shen Chong has never plagiarized works in front of the original singer. He was a little weak. He adjusted again before singing a cappella: "You were born in the 1950s. You should live a comfortable life. You should exercise every day and continue to whiten your skin.  You are not inferior to an 18-year-old girl. You were born in the 1950s. In the blink of an eye, you have become a teacher's nanny. If you put on the same posture as before, you still have a certain attitude at 70% off. Even if there is any alarm, you will not be afraid.  , because your eyes are blurry, but you actually understand everything, but you just pretend not to understand, because you don¡¯t want to pursue the lost dream, so you say you enjoy mediocrity, but there will always be times when you can¡¯t help it, and you are ready to act like a young man,  When I think of 1973, I change my mind. When I think of that year, I had all I wanted. I didn¡¯t have time to pursue it desperately before I was thirty, and time flew by" "Hey, hey, concentrate on driving. Others sing and get paid, but I can't.  I don¡¯t want to sing and send money to the hospital.  "Zhang Aijia parked the car casually on the side of the road and turned to look at him, looking up and down, with a look of surprise mixed with burning emotions. "This song "Era" is from the album "3040 Love" released by Zhang Aijia in 2016.  A song that pokes fun at herself in "The Wonderful Life" has a slightly autobiographical flavor. Playing it out at this time naturally moved her - who else knows herself better than herself? And who doesn't want to have a caring and confidant lover?  What? Shen Chong adapted it in a hurry and lacked confidence. In order to cover it up, he raised his eyebrows and said with an exaggerated expression: "Not bad, does it suit your liking?"  Is he considered a genius?  " "You idiot, you idiot, I don't believe you wrote it." Although he said this, his smile was faint, his eyes were filled with tenderness and sweetness, which made Shen Chong drunk.  Why didn¡¯t you find it  He was in a happy mood and thinking wildly, when Zhang Aijia suddenly came up to him, kissed him, then withdrew, hurriedly started the car, and said: "Even if you wrote it, give me a reward, you are a great talent." "This.  The reward is too meager." Shen Chong complained and said, "Why don't we do something else later, like a couple playing in the water?" "That's a good idea." Zhang Aijia glanced at him and said, "You just wrote that song.  It¡¯s only half, not finished.¡± ¡°But I can continue singing before I get home.¡± ¡°No more singing.¡± Zhang Aijia bit her lip and said, ¡°After I get home, I¡¯ll take a shower, and you can go write the song.¡±  Hey, get up." Shen Chong patted Zhang Aijia's delicate body under the quilt and said, "I'm going to attend the theater opening ceremony soon. If I don't get up, it will be too late." "What's the point of going to the theater opening ceremony?"  Lazy stretched out an arm and said with sleepy eyes: "You go, I'll sleep for a while." "We agreed to go together, how can we change our minds at the last minute." Shen Chong rubbed his hands and said: "Get up quickly.  , otherwise I will use ice to catch peach hands." "I really don't understand why there is a ceremony for the opening of the theater." Zhang Aijia looked frightened, held up her arms, half sat up, and pulled the suspenders of her pajamas to cover her eyes.  Shen Chong said, "That's the property you invested in. Why don't you just set off a few firecrackers? You don't come to Taipei often, so no one cares." "It's getting lazier and lazier." Shen Chong said  She picked up the messy clothes that she had thrown away last night, threw them on the bed, and said, "Get up quickly. There are big people here for the ribbon cutting today. It's not good to be late." "What about the big people?" Zhang Aijia reluctantly lingered on the bed,  She said coquettishly: "No matter how great a person is, he can't compare to the quilt on a winter morning." "Master, if you want to preach, you have to go early tomorrow. You can't do it today." "What leader?"  She picked up a black lace underwear and said: "If you don't get up, my little brother will be ready to make a move." Zhang Aijia couldn't resist, pouted and said: "You go out first, I have to get up and change clothes." "We are an old married couple.  I didn't see anything last night." Shen Chong said, but turned and walked out.  It is indeed a pleasing thing for a beauty to change her clothes, but it is more beneficial for men and women to have more private space and imagination.  After washing up, Zhang Aijia changed into a lapel sweater and a white jacket, walked out of the room and said, "Let's go, there's nothing to eat at home, let's go out for breakfast." "No, no, change some clothes." Shen  Chongzhi shook his head and said, "Let's change into a dress." "You want me to die?" Zhang Aijia subconsciously touched her arm and said, "It's windy outside, what kind of dress should I wear in the winter?" "Then change into something that looks better.  "Yes." Shen Chong spread his hands and said, "How can you go to the ribbon-cutting ceremony dressed like a grocery store aunt?" "You are the grocery store aunt." Zhang Aijia rolled her eyes, but went back to the bedroom and changed her clothes.  Wearing a black suit, with her hair tied up, and carrying a handbag with a chain, she looked very elegant and quiet.  "That's it, the vegetable seller becomes a tutor." Shen Chong walked around her, smacking his lips, and said, "A so-so tiger can see people." "A dog's mouth can't spit out ivory." He found a shop outside.  , After having breakfast, Shen Chong drove towards the theater under Zhang Aijia's guidance.  "The theater is also in Da'an District. After it was built." Shen Chong asked while driving: "Have you been there?" "When I passed by, I saw it from a distance several times, but never went in." Zhang Aijia sneered.  She yawned and said, "Who will cut the ribbon?" "Mr. Wei arranged it. I don't know much about it. I just know that the level is not low." Following her instructions, Shen Chong turned a corner and said, "Maybe Song  "Chu Yu?" "Director Song is now a political celebrity in Taiwan. Will he come to cut the ribbon for your small theater?" "How do you know it is a small theater?" Shen Chong said with a smile, "I don't like small things.  I like big women, big breasts, big butts and maybe big theaters. " "You should be more serious. You used to be nice, but now you always talk nonsense and are vulgar." Zhang Aijia punched him dissatisfied and said, "You.  "I don't think I have any." "You are a very flavorful woman, I like you the most." "Where do I have flavor?" "I'm talking about taste and talent, don't move around I'm driving.  It's a safe idea." Shen Chong dodged the attack and said, "You also said that I always talk nonsense, and you always show your teeth and claws." "Who told you to always provoke me?" Zhang Aijia defended and sat down.  , said: "The construction of your theater only started in September, and it has only been five months now. How big can it be built?"   ¡°When humans were still monkeys, they could build houses. Over thousands of years, they have accumulated countless knowledge and skills. Now we are in an industrial society, and with mechanized operations, we can build houses in three months, not to mention five months.  "In the United States, Broadway in New York and Hollywood in Los Angeles, one west and one east, provide considerable employment opportunities and training channels for performance practitioners, while in China, both drama and film are in a comparative state.  The barbaric stage.  When Shen Chong originally recruited Jin Shijie to film "Buried Alive", he had the idea of ??creating a first-class Chinese drama performance group. However, at this time, drama performances in the three places across the Taiwan Strait were in a niche state, with few practitioners and low popularity.  , the audience is also limited to intellectual groups, and most importantly, there is no professional performance venue. Like Jin Shijie¡¯s Gengxin Cultural and Educational Center, the venue is small and the facilities are backward, which is very detrimental to promotion.  "According to memory, Taipei will soon usher in a wave of dramatic performance activities. If this trend can be maintained and promoted, and more Jin Shijie and Li Liqun can be cultivated, the benefits to Chinese films will be immeasurable.  Therefore, Shen Chong bought an old cinema in August, demolished it and converted it into a theater, preparing to use it as a base and flagship stage for drama performances. After more than five months of busy work, it is finally completed.  This ribbon-cutting and opening ceremony and all other matters were arranged by Wei Jingmeng. Although he retired, he was still a confidant of Chiang Ching-kuo and a frequent visitor to the "Presidential Palace". Therefore, the people below did their best to handle this matter.  There are fences at both ends of the street, and a group of uniformed security personnel are patrolling and checking.  After reading the invitation letter, Shen Chong, under the instructions of the security guard, drove into the underground parking lot from the special passage next to it.  "It's such a big scene. Those who didn't know it thought the president was coming." After getting off the car, Zhang Aijia put on her shawl and said, "I seemed to have seen a lot of reporters just now." "There are big shots here." Shen Chong came from behind.  He helped her tidy up, looked at her watch, and said, "It's half an hour before the ribbon-cutting, shall I take you to the theater?" "Can you go in now?" "Of course, Jin Shijie and his troupe will be there tonight.  The show is about to start, and the decoration inside has been completed. "Following the signs, Shen Chong found the elevator. He took out a name tag from his pocket, showed it to the security guard standing by, walked into the elevator, and pressed the button.  Button to go to the top floor.  "The four-story theater is not very big." Zhang Aijia made a face and said, "It's so mysterious. How could a big shot be so boring?" "I really don't know." Shen Chong shrugged and said:  "Your grandpa didn't tell me." After Zhang Aijia stepped out of the elevator, she couldn't help but exclaimed softly - opposite the elevator was a glass curtain wall dozens of meters long. The scenery outside was unobstructed, and there were people coming and going outside.  Cars came and went, but it was silent, like a moving urban landscape.  Shen Chong had already come here yesterday to take a quick look around, and he was naturally not surprised at this time. He introduced: "This is the longest and largest single glass curtain wall in the world. The effect is good." "You are really willing to give it up.  Spend money." Zhang Aijia walked up to the glass, looked up and down, and said, "It's amazing. The whole building is made of glass curtain walls?" "The ones in the southeast face the street."  Standing next to her, he said: "The other two directions are all concrete." "Why use glass curtain walls?" "When we come to see Jinbao's performance at night." Shen Chong said, "You will understand why."  "Tsk, it's another trick." Zhang Aijia said dissatisfied: "What else is there besides the theater?" "The first floor is an exhibition hall, which can hold various cultural activities. The second floor is a large theater with 17UU seats.  There is also a restaurant, and there are four small theaters with 500 seats on the third floor. There is a museum here on the fourth floor, and a gallery can be built over there. There is also an annex building behind it for offices. " "It looks pretty good.  Not bad." Zhang Aijia followed him and walked around the empty fourth floor and said, "Although it's not high and not particularly big, it's quite unique and the location is good. There are business districts and universities around it. No wonder there are big people there.  Come and support me. When it opens, this place will become the cultural center of Taipei. " "If you have the vision, you can be my secretary." Shen Chong patted her and said, "Let's go and have a look below."  Shen Chong introduced her to each building one by one and said: "These four small theaters have complete dressing rooms, prop rooms and other supporting facilities. They can stage experimental plays, small stage plays, musicals, and can also be used for large-scale plays.  The rehearsal, sound and lighting facilities are all world-class. "No need to look at the grand theater. Just this one will make Jin Bao and the others overjoyed." Zhang Aijia touched the red-decorated soft seats and said:  "It's a hundred times better than the small place they used to have." "Wait until you see the big theater, thenLet¡¯s talk.  Shen Chong chuckled and said, "That's the best part of this theater."  " "You built such a luxurious theater, what do you want to do?  Zhang Aijia looked at him with a pair of wonderful eyes and asked: "The land here is very expensive. With these advanced equipment, the construction cost will be at least several hundred million. By selling tickets, when will the cost be recovered?"  " "Business is not how you calculate it.  Shen Chong held her hand, walked out of the small theater, and said, "Do you know what is lacking most in the world?"  It's talent. Millions of dollars may not buy a talent. Now I will use a few million to plow and fertilize the land and build a place to cultivate talents. In a few years, it will be like plucking carrots, one crop after another.  You can make a lot of money by recruiting talents from here.  " "Nonsense, it takes ten years to grow trees and a hundred years to grow people. Carrots grow in one year, but it takes many years for a person to grow.  Zhang Aijia was dumbfounded by his metaphor, and said: "And your metaphor is too vulgar. You are recruiting talents one after another Haha."  " Shen Chong also smiled and said: "It does take many years for a person to grow up, but there is also a saying that within ten steps, there must be grass. There are so many people in the world with many talents, they just lack someone to show them.  It's just a stage. If someone appears, I'll pull it out. Even if I pull it out once a year, that's enough.  " "But even if you want to cultivate talents like radishes, there is no need to be so luxurious, right?  "    "needs.  Talent is like a diamond, if it is thrown into the soil, it will become a stone. Only when it is set in gold can it shine brightly.  " "It's full of nonsense.  "Zhang Aijia followed him, walked into the elevator, and asked, "By the way, I've always heard you talk about the theater. Doesn't this theater have a name?  "    "Yes, I have.  "    "what is it call?  " "You will know when the ribbon-cutting is over.  "
