Era: Starting from Modu Translation Studio

In 1979, Qi Baishi's Works Collection was included in the 1980 stamp issuance plan.

Soon, the stamp issuing bureau entrusted the project to the stamp design master Shao Bolin.

Therefore, after receiving the commission, Shao Bolin immediately began to collect materials.

Although Mr. Qi created a lot of works in his life, the framework of the works designed by Shao Bolin set two principles.

One is Qi Baishi's favorite flowers and birds, and the other is a narrow vertical screen, because the banner works have the most Chinese characteristics.

However, it is extremely difficult to find 16 favorite paintings among tens of thousands of scattered works.

Jiang Shan picked up a small teapot and poured a cup for the two masters: Do you know whose residence Yanjing Academy was originally?

Huang Yongyu, who was holding his pipe, immediately laughed: How can I know this? When Mr. Qi was alive, I was a frequent visitor to his house.

Jiang Shan knew Huang Yongyu's temper, so he said half-jokingly: Then tell me, where did Mr. Qi hide the painting?

Upon hearing this, Huang Yongyu and Shao Bolin looked at each other.

He asked doubtfully: He also hid the paintings? Didn't he even donate the house!

That's right, Jiang Shan continued to murmur: It is true that he donated the house, but there are still paintings in the house.

Qi Lao's house, as they said, was later the Yanjing Painting Academy.

Only then did Shao Bolin realize: Comrade Xiao Jiang, what do you mean, Mr. Qi still has some paintings hidden in the Yanjing Painting Academy?

It's not hidden there, Jiang Shan calculated the time: But it should be dug out soon.

dig it out?

Well, Jiang Shan nodded: There are all exquisite products that Qi people are reluctant to take out...

The night in Guangzhou Academy was extremely quiet.

Thanks to Huang Yongyu's enthusiastic retention of if you can't live in vain, Jiang Shan and Yu Sigui saved a lot of money.

The art academy is dotted with exhibition halls of various sizes, enough to spend an afternoon visiting and taking photos.

At this moment, he only regretted not bringing his second brother out. It would be good to gain knowledge together.

Huang Yongyu's studio is located in the westernmost corner of the painting academy. Looking out the window during the day, you can see a pond.

But this time, it was already pitch black.

In the studio, the gray cement floor is so smooth that it reflects the light from the roof.

There are scrolls hanging on the walls, some are completed and some are only half-painted.

Huang Yongyu would go over and add a few strokes from time to time.

At this moment, Jiang Shan was sitting at the painting table. Under Yu Sigui's soft touch, he was painting an owl for the girl.

Big or small, Jiang Shan wrote and asked: Otherwise, just draw an egg.

I can draw eggs myself, Yu Sigui, who was with Jiang Shan, became more and more cheerful: Just draw two small ones!

Okay, save the trouble. Jiang Shan looked at the birdcage and began to draw the bird.

At this time, Huang Yongyu was holding a stack of newspaper clippings on the bamboo chair next to the birdcage, looking at it in awe.

After a while, he put down the newspaper clipping without finishing it.

After that, he said to Shao Bolin who was looking at the monkey with a magnifying glass: How long do you want to look at the monkey?

Shao Bolin himself was laughing: I have to understand the texture of your monkey so that I can make boards in the future!

I don't know if it can be published yet, Huang Yongyu was not worried about this. At this moment, he only cared about:

You brought this novel series, what's next?

Shao Bolin pointed to the newspaper clippings: They're all here. That's it. My friends in Pujiang collected them for me.

Pujiang newspaper? Huang Yongyu turned to Jiangshan and asked, Jiangshan, have you ever heard of lurking in Pujiang?

Jiang Shan, who was painting birds, didn't even raise his head: Latent? Novel?

Shao Bolin nodded: Yes, the novel is serialized in your city's Pujiang Daily.

I know this, I wrote it.

In Jiang Shan's painting, one bird has its left eye open, and the other bird has its left eye closed, making Yu Sigui giggle and giggle.

What did he just say? Huang Yongyu thought he heard wrongly and looked at Shao Bolin and asked.

Shao Bolin was stunned for a moment, pointed at Jiangshan and said to Huang Yongyu: He said he wrote this novel.

Huh? Huang Yongyu quickly looked down.

In the column of the author of Latent in the newspaper, two words were clearly printed: Jiangshan.

My original name is my original surname, for fear that others will not know who I am.

He stood up for a moment.

He walked quickly to Jiang Shan, pointed at the newspaper clipping and asked, Is this Jiang Shan you?

At this moment, Jiangshan's two birds were almost finished.

The latent publication in Pujiang Daily has been discontinued a long time ago, Jiang Shan asked the two of them with a smile: How is it? I write good novels, right?

Huang Yongyu was shocked: Is it really you who can write it?

The former editor-in-chief of Pujiang Daily was my eldest brother, Jiang Shan explained the reason:

Now he has been transferred to Oriental Metropolis Daily, and I have followed suit. The series is almost over.

Huang Yongyu grasped the key point: Is this latent serialization almost over?

Shao Bolin also asked: What happened to Yu Zecheng after that?

Jiang Shanwei said: This cannot be explained clearly in one or two sentences.

Then write,

As soon as he finished speaking, Huang Yongyu put away the brush in Jiang Shan's hand, and Shao Bolin took away the owl on the table with both hands.

Jiang Shan was confused: Write it right away?

Huang Yongyu's eyes widened: Hurry up.

Shao Bolin also wanted to read it: If it's not troublesome, just write it. My old friends also like to read this novel.

As soon as he heard this, Jiang Shan became more motivated: Okay, the teachers like it. I will write no matter how hard or tiring it is.

As the night progresses, the owl in the birdcage becomes more lively.

The versatile Huang Yongyu went to the kitchen and brought some meat sticks back to feed the birds.

At this moment, Shao Bolin, who was standing behind Jiang Shan, took off his reading glasses with a sigh on his face.

Old Huang, Editor Xiao Jiang, reminds me of when you were an editor.

They are not as fun now as we were back then. Huang Yongyu leaned on the sofa and smiled with his eyes closed.

Shao Bolin nodded: Yes, it was great back then!

Jiang Shan was immediately excited when he heard Huang Yongyu mentioned that year.

One of the purposes of his trip was: Teacher Huang, where did you work as an editor?

Want to hear?

Tell us about it.

Okay, Huang Yongyu said, taking advantage of Jiangshan's efforts in rushing out novels all night long: Before liberation, I got a job as an art editor at Hong Kong's Da Gong Bao.

Jiang Shan quietly put down the pen in his hand.

Huang Yongyu slowly recalled: Besides me, there were two other people in the editorial department at that time, international telecommunications translator Zha Liangyong, and copy editor Chen Wentong.

These two people were later Jin Yong and Liang Yusheng.

The outside world says Xiao Cha has two pens, Huang Yongyu took a sip from his pipe.

Jiang Shan answered: One writes martial arts novels, and the other writes film reviews.

As expected of working in a newspaper. In the era when Huang Yongyu was an editor, the news obtained by the newspaper could be worth half of the secrecy bureau:

Actually, Chen Wentong helped him write the novel at the beginning. As for the film reviews, I wrote them all.

Shao Bolin supported his old friend and said:

Xiao Jiang, you may not know that when he was in Xiangjiang, Mr. Huang was not only the editor of Da Gong Bao and New Evening News, but also worked as a screenwriter for Great Wall Film.

Of course Jiang Shan knew that until Jin Yong was 70 years old, Huang Yongyu would still call him Xiao Cha when he saw him.

However, Yu Sigui on the side didn't know, so he said from the bottom of his heart: It's amazing!

We were just playing newspapers at that time. That was the time Huang Yongyu missed the most:

It doesn't matter if the three of us went to a restaurant to eat and forgot to bring money. When we were about to finish eating, I would either draw a picture or write a movie review, and then Xiaocha would call someone to collect the manuscript and pay the bill...

The more Jiang Shan listened, the more emotional he became. Perhaps Xiang Jiang’s peak period began at that time.

Yu Sigui: What happened next?

Later I returned to China, Huang Yongyu didn't want to hide anything: I have a very good cousin named Shen Congwen, and he wrote a letter asking me to return to China to help him.

Speaking of this, Jiang Shan noticed Shao Bolin's eyes getting darker and darker.

It's been very good since I came back, Huang Yongyu continued: He is engaged in his literary creation, and I continue to paint my paintings.

But, ten years came quickly.

Huang Yongyu took a long puff of cigarette.

Jiang Shan was not shy about the fact that he was just a friend he had just met: There was a student who insisted on becoming my uncle's teacher, named Fan Shen...

Shao Bolin stood aside: Ahem...

It's your fault, Huang Yongyu said, I'm talking about mine. This Fan Sheng was supported by my uncle, but he wrote more than ten big-character posters to him in a row, listing hundreds of crimes...

Now that he has said this, Shao Bolin also shook his head and said: In those days, ten were enough to kill someone.

What's more, after investigation afterwards, it was found that none of them could be established.

Not only was he not guilty, but it was also found out that Shen Congwen had purchased numerous cultural relics with his own money for more than ten years and donated them to the National History Museum.

After visiting so many times, the museum staff didn’t even bother to write a receipt, and the old man didn’t even care.

Fortunately, people remembered to speak up for the old man, and this saved the old man from jail.

He was only assigned to clean toilets in the history museum where he had donated cultural relics.

Fan Shou? Jiang Shan murmured and repeated, Is that the great painter Fan Shou?

That's right, Huang Yongyu said with a sneer: Master Kuchan's proud disciple was also given the title by Kuchan: Zhongshan Wolf of the Son Line.

It seems that this one likes to offend the teacher, Jiang Shanqi said.

Huang Yongyu was deeply touched: But people are also very good at worshiping Shantou. If he had painted a stamp, he would have been approved long ago.

The monkey ticket, which became famous in later generations, can't even get a birth certificate now.

It took until November this year to get the approval for listing.

If it were later, after the Gengshen New Year, it would still be nothing.

Who dares to imagine the mood of these two creators at that time!

Are the two teachers worried about this monkey? Jiang Shan asked tentatively.

Up to this point, Shao Bolin still took out a magnifying glass to look at the paintings in his hands from time to time.

This picture of a black monkey on a red background will reveal a furry 3D monkey when viewed under a magnifying glass.

Jiang Shan continued: I have a way.
