Chapter 12 Past and Present
"Nancheng Old Shadows" was filmed in Haicheng, so he drove there early in the morning, reading materials about that period of history along the way.

The Republic of China is a period of history that many Chinese people do not want to mention, because during that time, Hua was oppressed by foreign powers, ordinary people suffered terribly, wars continued everywhere, and the oppression made people breathless.

Looking at this period of history, Song Qianming seems to have seen the previous life, the father and the emperor were fatuous, the emperor's grandmother was in power, the kings from all over the country established themselves as kings, the men were forced to enlist in the army, and the taxes were harsh.

Fortunately, after the previous emperor came to power, he recuperated and recuperated, and the lives of the common people were easier.

However, the government here is even more powerful in this life. It not only filled the stomachs of the residents in a short period of time, but also lifted the vast majority of people out of poverty.

What shocked Song Qianming the most was that farmers here are not taxed. Not only are men and women equal, but everyone has to go to school, and the state pays for it.

Since ancient times, in order to control the place, the superiors did not dare to let people read too many books, or they only preached one kind of thought and fixed their way of thinking, because once people learn knowledge, they learn to think, and they will treat the superiors A series of orders were questioned.

So those dynasties either only respected Confucianism, or only respected filial piety... It is rare to let go of the thinking and allow a hundred schools of thought to contend, because once there are too many opinions, differences will arise, and then no one will obey the other, and the war will begin. .

But this world is different. The government of Huaguo allows people to learn, more to let people learn basic knowledge, to eradicate illiteracy, so that everyone has one more choice to survive in this world.

Although there will be some patriotic education during the study period, Song Qianming doesn't think there is anything wrong with it. The country is so powerful, and it is so dedicated to the people that patriotism is what it should be.

These days, he has seen news on the Internet about whether foreign students should come back. Maybe he is too old-fashioned. He thinks that those foreign students should come back. If they don't come back, they shouldn't slander the country.

Because you have enjoyed a series of benefits from Huaguo since you were born. Don’t say that you were raised by your parents and have nothing to do with the country. You spent money to study, and you have no obligation to return anything.

First of all, with the existence of the Huaguo government, you can grow up in a peaceful and stable environment. If you were born in a country with chaotic social relations, can you grow up safely and become what you are now?

Secondly, haven't you enjoyed a series of public facilities in society?Roads, bridges, even street lamps, running water, etc., are inseparable from government investment.

Of course, you may continue to quibble that these are all done with the taxes paid by your parents. You are entitled to enjoy them, but what about medical care and education?

He, Song Qianming, didn't know anything else. In their Lan Dynasty, if an ordinary person wanted to study, it would be difficult for an ordinary person to study even if he lost his fortune. Most of them didn't even have the opportunity to go to school.

But here, no matter where you were born, no matter how your family treats you, the government will do everything possible to let you go to school.

And after going to college, do you really think that your tuition fee of several thousand dollars is enough to offset the knowledge taught to you by the school?You have to know that these schools are subsidized by the government, and your tuition fee is not enough to support you to complete the entire university.

Book fees, accommodation fees, experimental funds, etc., these are the prices that are only available after the country and the school have given preferential policies.

Many college students pat their buttocks away after occupying the resources given to them by the school and the government. They still have a very natural attitude. He has paid tuition fees and then made contributions to other countries. It is true that you have a better choice. Your own ability, but since you have enjoyed the resources, shouldn't your attitude be changed?At least the country should be grateful instead of slandering, right?

This thought drifts away. Song Qianming can't control others, but he can manage himself well. He feels that what he can do well at this stage is to work hard and pay taxes hard. When he has more financial strength, he will still To do more things to return to China and society.

"Excuse me, is this the filming location of "Southern City Old Shadows"?" After getting out of the car, he asked a person who seemed to be in charge.

"Who are you?" The man looked at him vigilantly, then frowned in disgust, "We are not accepting interviews now, and we are not allowing staff to enter at will, please leave."

"Sorry, I'm Song Qianming. I made an appointment with Mr. Qian to audition." Song Qianming was not angry because of his attitude, and was still polite and humble.

"Audition? What role are you auditioning for? Why didn't I hear Mr. Qian say that he wanted to audition for a new actor? Don't fool me with these things. Mr. Qian is not an ordinary person who can follow his opinions. Go ahead, don't hinder our work here. He waved his hands impatiently, and snorted coldly, "What kind of cat and dog can come to the door at will, and dare to miss Qian Lao's movie if you are not famous?"

Now Song Qianming was really angry, he asked in a good voice, why is this person so disrespectful?It is true that he is not famous now, but can he be insulted at will like this?

But after all, it was Mr. Qian who gave him this opportunity, so he couldn't casually get angry at Mr. Qian's people.

So he patiently said again: "My teacher made an appointment with Mr. Qian. Could you please go and inform me?"

"Hey, why are you so ignorant? I said that Mr. Qian has no time to meet people like you." The man's voice became louder as he spoke.

"What happened?" Perhaps because they were arguing too loudly, a little girl in her twenties walked out of it.

The man who was so proud of Song Qianming just now, when he saw the little girl, immediately turned his attitude 180 degrees: "Second miss, it's like this, this person insisted that Mr. Qian asked him to audition, who doesn't know that our crew is already assembled?" , he is still entangled here, what is he doing here to make trouble?"

"Who said everyone is ready? Didn't they still have two supporting roles?" Second Miss Qian gave him a white look.

"But didn't we invite Qi Yang and Liu Shi to audition for the two missing roles?"

"Then according to what you mean, the remaining roles can only be chosen between the two of them, right?"

"No, I didn't mean that, but their popularity is indeed quite high now."

Second Miss Qian scoffed at him: "When did my grandpa's movies need to rely on traffic? Go away, it's not up to you, an unprofessional person who walked through the back door, to talk about casting."

Song Qianming could see clearly that this man had no real power at all, and he was just a sham in this production crew. There really are such people who don't know the importance and have no brains everywhere!
