Just when Jiang Shan arrived in the capital with the two little guys, a letter from the capital was also delivered to the Yanjing Stamp Issuing Bureau by internal express.
The leader, who had been waiting for it for a long time, immediately opened the letter that made them worried.
After reading it twice, the frowning director of distribution raised his head and shouted: "Hurry up and ask for Shao Bolin!"
…
At this moment, Shao Bolin, who was still sitting in the Quanjude Roast Duck Restaurant, was watching with satisfaction as the new Kung Pao shrimp balls were served on the table.
"It is not allowed to go back to patch up a painting that has already been painted, add a print, or add a title."
Huang Yongyu recalled Qi Baishi's ruthless reminders: "Shrimps are ten yuan each, insects are fifteen yuan each. We only accept cash, no gifts..."
"So many regulations," Jiang Shan was very happy to hear: "It's hard to understand!"
What I'm thinking about is that these few painting instructions from everyone are the most interesting collections.
"It doesn't matter if you can't see it," Huang Yongyu said with a smile:
"The old man will remind the guests, but there are also thick-skinned ones. There was once a painting requester who insisted on adding another shrimp after seeing the old man's painting. As a result, the old man could not argue, so he added a few more strokes to the painting.
."
The painter took it over with a smile and saw that it was a dead shrimp. He immediately questioned Qi Baishi.
Everyone Qi calmly asked him, if you go to the wet market to buy shrimps, you all know that live shrimps and dead shrimps are two prices, let alone in his place!
The person who asked for the painting was so angry that it changed hands not long after he returned.
As everyone knows, it is a blessing in disguise!
Many years later, because all the shrimps painted by Qi were live, the only dead shrimp was auctioned for a whopping 36 million yuan!
"These things are really interesting,"
After eating the meal, Chen Peisi realized that those legendary figures in the past also wanted to eat the fireworks of the world.
"Xiaojiang,"
Seeing that everyone had almost eaten, Shao Bolin slowly took out a stamp album:
"When the children came to Yanjing for the first time, I had nothing to prepare. I just picked out a few sets of interesting stamps."
"It's indeed quite interesting," Huang Yongyu finally took advantage of the opportunity to eat the food: "I was afraid that he wouldn't be able to part with it, so I went over to pick it up with him."
Jiang Shan knew that Huang Yongyu was joking.
In the eyes of the stamp chief designer, the collection of stamps has only artistic value and no expectation of appreciation.
Therefore, Shao Bolin made three stipulations with his son: he was not allowed to participate in the design of stamps, he was not allowed to collect stamps, and he was not allowed to buy or sell stamps.
These three steps do not allow for gold medals, and directly demolished a certain second-generation postman's tower near the water.
Jiang Shan took the stamp album for the children: "Why don't you hurry up and thank Grandpa Shao."
"Thank you, Grandpa Shao~" The childish voice was crisp and uniform.
For the two little guys, what they wanted to thank more was Grandpa Shao for ordering this table of dishes.
Looking at Jiang Shan again, he first moved all the dishes and dishes in front of the two children, and then placed the stamp album in front of them.
Jiang Xiaoyu and Jiang Xiaobai looked up at their third uncle, then quickly lowered their eyes and looked down.
Facing the first page after opening it, everyone at the table immediately stood in awe.
This is a set of commemorative stamps designed based on the oil painting "MZX Goes to Anyuan".
"This set of tickets is of commemorative significance to Lao Shao." Huang Yongyu felt that he must explain it in detail.
Jiang Shan had seen this set of stamps, but he didn't expect: "Teacher Shao, you designed this set of stamps!"
"How is that possible?" Shao Bolin quickly waved his hand.
"Then...?" Why is it still related to him?
"Although I didn't design this set of tickets, I almost got locked up when it was issued."
Facing questions from people at the table, Shao Bolin pointed to the stamp album and said:
"At that time, many people were optimistic about this set of stamps, so a large number of stamps were stolen within two days of its release. At that time, many people suspected that it was me, but I was very angry."
"Fortunately, their leader believed in Lao Shao's character and didn't embarrass him too much." Huang Yongyu said:
"But Lao Shao still got a lot of looks from his eyes, and it wasn't until the case was solved that he completely turned around."
"So this is what you said is so memorable," Jiang Shan finally understood.
"Otherwise," Shao Bolin said with a smile, "but this set of stamps of great men is really unique."
"Well," Huang Yongyu nodded: "When you go to the post office, you can't say buy, you have to say 'please'."
Shao Bolin: "When sending a letter, the post office cannot stamp the stamp on the stamp, so many people will take off the stamp and reuse it."
"Oh~"
"You really served the people."
Jiang Shan continued to turn around, but this time he didn't speak.
There are two album pages spread out on the table at the same time. One side is a package called "Capital Scenic Spots", and the other side is a set of 15 pages of "Peony Pictures".
"Xiao Bai," Grandpa Shao touched Little Baozi's little face: "Since you have come to Yanjing, Grandpa will give you this set of stamps as a souvenir."
What Shao Bolin was pointing at was the set of five leaflets titled "Scenic Spots in the Capital."
"This set of peony pictures is for Xiao Yu'er, do you like it?"
Although the two little guys don't understand it, they really like it.
Especially Jiang Xiaoyu, who followed Grandpa Shao's instructions and looked over, was immediately dazzled by the entire page of peonies.
Jiang Shan raised his hand and touched Jiang Xiaobai's little head: "This... this gift is too expensive!"
"It's for the little fat guy." Huang Yongyu knew that Jiang Shan was a man of good taste: "It's not for you."
Seeing this, Shao Bolin, who was originally worried that the set of tickets would be compromised by his children, also breathed a sigh of relief:
"You have to help Xiaobai put it away."
"Hey," Jiang Shan nodded: "Leave it to me, don't worry!"
Both sets of stamps were designed by Mr. Shao himself, but the set of "Capital Scenic Spots" almost gave away its creator.
Perhaps the two of you had already anticipated the unusualness of this set of stamps, but you never imagined that the path it would follow would be a road to the sky.
"Capital Scenic Spots" issued in 1956, a set of five coins with a face value of 8 cents.
Just because Shao Bolin designed a brilliant scene of thousands of rays of light above one of the "Tiananmen" towers, some people said it was an atomic bomb explosion.
This was okay, so this set of tickets was urgently suspended within two days of its release.
But despite this, more than 700 units still entered the market.
Afterwards, this set of tickets was removed from the Xiaguang and continued to be sold, but its value is no longer comparable to the first edition.
"I know you like those paintings from Meiying Studio,"
After Shao Bolin turned to the last page, he looked at Jiangshan: "So this last set of stamps is also prepared for you."
Looking at the eight couplets in front of him, Jiang Shan smiled: "Isn't this the "Sun Wukong" that was just released not long ago!"
"That's right," Shao Bolin looked at Jiang Shan in surprise: "It seems you really care about the stamp market!"
"This...?" Jiang Shan asked immediately: "This set of stamps was also designed by you, right?"
"We have many designers in our stamp issuing bureau, how could it be possible that I designed them all?"
"I can rest assured that."
"Um?"
"very nice,"
Jiang Shan directly ignored Teacher Shao's question. He only had stamps in his eyes now: "Everyone is a fine product, so beautiful!"
"As long as you like it!"
Shao Bolin was very pleased to see Jiangshan like it so much!
At this time, the stamp issuing bureau was worrying about the set of "Sun Wukong" that had just been released.
"Sun Wukong" was originally thought to be perfectly designed, but a primary school student from Pujiang wrote a letter pointing out common sense errors.
In the set of eight coupons, three of them were Nezha, Pan Taoyuan and Bagua Lu. The tiger skin miniskirt worn by the protagonist Sun Wukong was pointed out by the letter to be inconsistent with the original work.
This little skirt was obviously sewn by the master for Li Ye, so how could it appear in Havoc in Heaven?
A full five hundred years too early!
But as far as Jiangshan knows, the erroneous "Sun Wukong" has not been withdrawn like "Tiananmen".
Even though there was a bug, it was still sold out according to the original plan, but it also lost room for appreciation.
In comparison, the ticket for "Tiananmen" is different.
Today, Jiang Xiaobai is already a rich boy with millions in his hands.
…
After dinner, the group of people who had just seen the "Tiananmen" stamps came to Tiananmen Square again.
The suddenly enlightened, majestic Tiananmen Square with the red flag waving made the two little guys instantly become even smaller.
"I love BJ Tiananmen, the sun rises on Tiananmen..."
In order to encourage the children, Jiang Shan led Jiang Xiaoyu and sang.
Then, a group of people, old and young, started humming along.
Only then did everyone realize that it was their first time to sing "Tiananmen" in Tiananmen Square.
After singing the song, Jiang Xiaoyu and Jiang Xiaobai really relaxed a lot.
In the third uncle's camera lens, everyone is smiling happier than the other!
Tiananmen Square in 1979 was much more people-friendly than in later generations!
Not only was there an old farmer pushing a wheelbarrow selling radishes, but there was also a Crown car parked that cost 20 cents to take photos of.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Jiang Shan would really not believe it.
"country,"
Chen Peisi, who was shrinking her head like Jiang Shan, put her hands in the sleeves of her cotton coat:
"My latent Xie Ruolin has not been given to others, right?"
"How can that be impossible?" Jiang Shan also said, holding on to his sleeves: "Supposedly, the character is indeed a hot commodity, but with our relationship, I have to keep it for you!"
"Jiang Shan," Liu Xiaoqing also came closer at this moment: "After reading the script, I still want to play the heroine!"
"Comrade Cuiping?"
"Well, I quite like this character."
"Sure," Jiang Shan stood between the two and nodded: "Between the three of us, everything can be discussed."
"I knew you were interesting!"
"Jiangshan has always been interesting."
…
Just when Jiang Shan and his party came under the red flag, they were in an office of the Guangzhou Radio and Television Bureau.
Liao Mingzu's voice gradually became uncontrollable: "Why can't this contract be approved?"
"Isn't the problem obvious?" The person in charge sitting in front of him slammed his desk: "How can this good Xiangjiang market suddenly switch to domestic sales?"
"Have I not explained many times that the sales of these tapes are not good and have been discontinued by Xiangjiang!"
"Then you can't take it back. You should find other ways."
"I have tried every possible solution, but even after more than half a year, there is still no solution."
"But... alas,"
Looking at Liao Mingzu, who had become as thin as a handful of bones in front of him, the leader couldn't help but sigh:
"Mingzu, do you know how much pressure we will face once we withdraw?"
"But the pressure now is not small," Liao Mingzu knew what the leader was worried about:
"We all know that even if we don't get the goods back, EMI will still let us continue to repay the loan. Now we can only get rid of this batch of goods quickly."
"I'm surprised. A tape that can't be sold in Xiangjiang can be sold after being brought back."
"Isn't it already written in the contract?" Liao Mingzu clicked on the contract on the table: "The promotion effect is guaranteed, and liquidated damages will be compensated if there is a breach of contract."
"Xiangjiang EMI said it better than this!"
"But EMI didn't sign it in the contract. Look at the black and white words on it..."
"..."
At this moment, Hu Xiao, who was walking side by side with Qiu Yuefeng in the corridor of the translation factory, suddenly stopped:
"By the way, Lao Qiu, Jiang Shan asked me to remind you something."
"What's up?"
"He asked you to add a piece of background music to the radio drama of Insidious."
"Which song?"
"Hey, what's your name...please let me think about it."
