Chapter 359 Approval
“Five thousand years ago, we fought against the flood with the Egyptians”

"Four thousand years ago, we played with bronze tools together with the ancient Babylonians"

"It's really well written, worthy of being called Li Changhe."

"Dayu's flood control five thousand years ago, the Shang and Zhou dynasties four thousand years ago, the Hundred Schools of Thought three thousand years ago, the Qin and Han empires two thousand years ago, and the Tang Dynasty's heyday a thousand years ago, it's a really good summary."

"Yes, on the world's poker table, our opponents have changed round after round, and now, we are back again."

After returning to school, some classmates wrote down Li Changhe's words and posted them on the school's bulletin board.

So this passage quickly spread in Peking University, and then spread quickly to other surrounding schools through Peking University.

After Li Changhe knew about it, he didn't say anything.

People have something in common. Sometimes, there is not much difference between college students in the 1980s and netizens in later generations.

In the following days, Li Changhe became busy again.

In addition to having to devote all my energy to make up for the lessons, I also have to deal with all kinds of visitors.

For example, the students in the May Fourth Literary Society.

Speaking of which, Li Changhe was still the vice president of the May Fourth Literary Society, but unfortunately he hardly participated in any activities of the society.

"Jiangong, if you ask me, I should give up my position as vice president to someone else."

"You're just taking up a position but not doing any work. And to be honest, I'm going to be busier and busier in the future, and I'll have less and less time to stay in school. I really can't take care of the literature club."

Inside the Long March canteen, Li Changhe said to Chen Jiangong helplessly.

This is already the fifth time that Li Changhe has come here to eat this week. Basically, each time he comes with different classmates and friends. The boss specially reserved this small room to accommodate him.

"Changhe, what are you busy with now?"

Liang Zuo asked Li Changhe curiously at this time.

"I have been transferred to a team in the foreign affairs department. I practiced my spoken English at the Jingcheng Hotel and interacted with some foreigners, so I came there to help."

"As for what to do specifically, I can't tell you."

"By the way, Jiangong, Xiaoliang, when you go back, tell the other people in the agency that if they see me outside, don't take the initiative to say hello, and don't easily say you know me, because the foreign affairs department often has special tasks, and sometimes I meet them by chance and I can't communicate with them."

At this time, Li Changhe reminded Chen Jiangong again.

Chen Jiangong nodded: "In fact, we have discussed this before, but I will remind the people in the community again after I go back."

"As for the position of vice president, to be honest, whether I retire or not is not a big deal now. Except for Unnamed Lake, which is still publishing steadily, the others are not doing well."

"Is 'Morning' also no good?"

Li Changhe asked in surprise.

"Weiming Lake" is one of Peking University's official magazines. It has financial support from the school's Youth League Committee, so it can produce stably.

In addition, Peking University’s Chinese Department actually has several magazines, such as "Morning".

"The enthusiasm of the students is limited, and the cessation of publication of This Generation has dampened the enthusiasm of many students."

Chen Jiangong sighed and shook his head at this time. It must be said that the ban on the joint magazine "This Generation" last year was like a blow to many young literary people and it dampened their enthusiasm.

"I've told you guys a long time ago that it's inappropriate to do that, but you're still so enthusiastic. It's a relief that the higher-ups didn't take it too seriously."

Li Changhe said with a smile at this time.

Although several school leaders were punished for that incident, the students involved were fined and received only verbal criticism at most.

Apart from this, there was no other punishment, which was a typical case of much ado about nothing.

From this we can also see that the authorities care about this group of college students and are really doing their best to cultivate them.

"Yes, you have a long-term vision!"

Chen Jiangong said with emotion at this time.

At that time, Li Changhe was not interested in "This Generation". Many students from the Department of Literature complained about it. People from other schools were also somewhat dissatisfied, thinking that Li Changhe looked down on them.

But the final result proved Li Changhe's foresight, and they were slapped in the face.

"The main reason is that people's hobbies have changed. They learn to dance, attend dances, and wear new clothes. There are more things to do, so they can't take care of literary manuscripts anymore."

Liang Zuo also spoke with a smile at this time.

In the past few months, the dance party trend has become completely popular in Beijing. In the large dining halls inside schools, movies are shown less frequently now, but dance parties are held every now and then.

"It will probably not be long before the dance party is called off."

"By the way, Xiao Liang, are you interested in writing a script?"

At this time, Li Changhe smiled and asked Liang Zuo.

"write script?"

Liang Zuo looked at Li Changhe in surprise at this time.

Li Changhe nodded.

"Correct!"

"I know a film company in Hong Kong. They have a partnership with the Beijing Film Studio and they also want to collect some scripts from us."

"If you are interested, you can write and submit it to them, just as a way to earn some royalties."

"Old Chen, ask other students in the literature club. Those who are interested can also write."

"Oh? Any requests?"

Chen Jiangong also became interested at this time.

"There are no requirements. Just let the students write as they see fit. Just make sure the format is regular."

Li Changhe said casually.

He really didn't have any requirements for the script. He just let the students write freely and he could choose after they finished writing. Prices in China are so low these days, even if a script is only paid a few hundred yuan, it is still cheaper than in Hong Kong Island.

Of course, the most important thing is that Li Changhe believes that during this period, domestic literary scripts are sometimes more profound than those in Hong Kong.

People like Wang Jing mostly write scripts for entertainment purposes, and rarely for literary and artistic purposes. After all, the film market there is very important.

But the situation in China is different at this time. There is less entertainment but more in-depth content.

Even if Li Changhe asked them to accept the script, it didn't necessarily mean that the film would be shot in China. Maybe they would modify it and shoot it abroad.

Anyway, it wouldn't cost much, and he thought it would be a good idea to win over the Chinese department students in advance.

After all, when these people go out in the future, they will basically be pens, or go to the Propaganda Department, or go to news organizations, etc.

Apart from anything else, the early domestic news organizations were still very influential, and it was not the time for their credibility to be shattered in the future.

"Okay, I'll go back and ask them. If I can write it, I'll give it to you then."

Chen Jiangong nodded.

"I'll arrange for someone to collect it later. You should know Chen Kaige."

Li Changhe said to Chen Jiangong.

"We know each other!"

Of course Chen Jiangong knew him. They had often met at the poetry readings of Today, and with Li Changhe as the go-between, they were familiar with each other.

What's more, Peking University's Department of Chinese Language and Literature is the major that Director Chen has always dreamed of.

"Well, when the time comes, I'll just ask Kaige to collect them regularly."

"That's fine, his family is from the Beijing Film Studio."

Chen Jiangong also had some understanding of Chen Kaige's situation. They were all from the Chen family and were relatively familiar with each other.

"We're done eating, let's go back."

A few people finished their meal while talking, and when they saw that it was almost time, they went back.

When Li Changhe returned to school, a Shanghai car was already waiting there.

"Well, I'm looking for you again."

Chen Jiangong saw the car parked on the side of the road and said to Li Changhe with a smile.

"Yes, I'm leaving first!"

Li Changhe waved at them and then walked over quickly.

"Looking at Changhe's treatment, he is in that foreign affairs department, and his rank is not low."

Liang Zuo said with emotion at this time.

For an ordinary clerk, it is already great if you can be given a bicycle. How can it be possible for him to pick you up and drop you off?

"With Changhe's ability, who would believe that he could be an ordinary clerk in the foreign affairs department?"

"Okay, Liang Zuo, tell Xiao Cha and Xiao Huang that if they really see Chang He outside, don't take the initiative to greet him or show off his identity."

"Don't let our momentary negligence affect him again."

"Understood. I'll tell them when I see them."

"Well, when Changhe steps down as vice president, I'll bring it up again during the meeting."

"I think it won't work. I'll talk to Old Zou later and start forming a rule. In the junior year, we'll hand over the position of vice president to the younger students below, so that it can be passed on in an orderly manner."

Chen Jiangong said thoughtfully at this time.

He thought that he could take this opportunity to discuss the matter with the school Youth League Committee and Zou Shifang.

On the other side, after Li Changhe got in the car, he looked at the driver and said with a smile: "Master Ma, thank you for troubling you again."

This is Director Lu’s new driver, here to pick up Li Changhe.

Li Changhe guessed that the results of the reports he submitted had come out.

Li Changhe did not hand over the several reports he wrote to Lin Yuan, but handed them over to him through Director Lu after he came back.

The main reason is that these reports are currently just one person's opinions, and some of them are Li Changhe's judgments and ideas, which are not suitable for large-scale circulation.

For example, "Concept and Positioning of Establishing Hong Kong Security Company" is a plan for the future of Hong Kong Island. It does not need to be discussed by senior management for the time being, but Li Changhe needs the support of the top leaders.

So after much deliberation, Li Changhe decided to go through Director Lu’s channel.

Soon, he drove to Director Lu's office, where Director Lu was already sitting there waiting for him.

"Changhe, I never thought that you would do such a big thing just a few days after arriving in Hong Kong Island. I am really surprised."

As soon as he entered the door, Director Lu said to Li Changhe with a smile.

"It's mainly because of Mr. Bao's good cooperation. Without his help, it wouldn't be so smooth on my side."

Li Changhe said modestly.

"I've heard Qi Ran say that you used this leverage to perfection, causing HSBC, Jardine Matheson, and even Manhattan Bank to each have their own illusions, and the three parties didn't communicate with each other. This method is extraordinary."

"After the commander found out, he praised you loudly, saying that the business world is like a battlefield. If this were a war, you would definitely be a famous general who commanded troops like a god."

"This, Commander, is too much praise. I am definitely not qualified!"

Li Changhe felt a little ashamed. He had done all this with the help of a lot of judgments from his memories of his past life. Without information support, he would not have been able to scheme so hard against Jardine Matheson and HSBC.

"You, don't be so self-deprecating. By the way, the chief has also approved the reports you submitted!"

After hearing what Director Lu said, Li Changhe immediately asked curiously: "Director, what did the chief say?"
