　　Xinhuanet Beijing, July 3 (Reporter Li Zhiqiang) From July 1, many places began to implement the new year’s housing provident fund deposit policy: the implementation period of the policy of reducing the proportion of enterprise housing provident fund deposit was extended to April 30, 2020, the proportion and upper and lower limits of housing provident fund deposit were standardized, and the upper limit of provident fund deposit base or the upper limit of monthly deposit was adjusted. Enterprises with difficulties in production and operation can apply for reducing the proportion of housing provident fund deposit or delaying payment.

　　Reduce the proportion of enterprise housing provident fund deposit and extend the period

　　Recently, housing provident fund management departments in Beijing, Nanjing, Harbin and other places issued notices to strictly implement the Notice on Improving the Housing Provident Fund Deposit Mechanism to Further Reduce Enterprise Costs issued by the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, the Ministry of Finance and the People’s Bank of China in April this year. In order to reduce the cost of the real economy and reduce the non-tax burden of enterprises, the policy of appropriately reducing the proportion of enterprise housing provident fund deposit in stages was extended to April 30, 2020.

　　In April 2016, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Finance and the People’s Bank of China jointly issued a document clarifying that the policy of appropriately reducing the proportion of housing provident fund contributions in stages will be implemented from May 1, 2016, and will be temporarily implemented for two years.

　　Standardize the deposit ratio and upper and lower limits of housing provident fund

　　The notice issued by the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development and the Ministry of Finance in April this year once again standardized and adjusted the deposit ratio of housing provident fund and expanded the floating range of the deposit ratio of housing provident fund. The lower limit of the housing provident fund deposit ratio is 5%, and the upper limit is determined by each region according to procedures, but the maximum shall not exceed 12%. The deposit unit can independently determine the proportion of housing provident fund deposit within the upper limit range of 5% to local regulations; Effectively standardize the upper limit of the housing provident fund deposit base. The monthly salary base of local housing provident fund deposit shall not be higher than 3 times the average monthly salary of employees in the previous year published by the statistical department of the city where the employees work. Where more than 3 times, will be standardized and adjusted.

　　According to the spirit of the notice, all localities can be in 12%— 5% within the scope of the upper and lower limits, decide the upper and lower limits of the local provident fund deposit ratio. Across the country, Beijing, Nanjing, Xi ‘an, Qingdao, Yangzhou and other cities have made it clear that the upper and lower limits of the proportion of housing provident fund paid by units and employees themselves are 12%— 5%。 In some areas, the upper and lower limits are limited according to local actual conditions. For example, Jilin province stipulates that the upper and lower limits of the housing provident fund deposit ratio are 7% in principle. Shanghai has made it clear that in 2018, the contribution ratio of employees and units to housing provident fund is 5% to 7% respectively, and units can independently determine the contribution ratio of provident fund within the range of 5% to 7% respectively.

　　Raise the upper limit of the monthly deposit of housing provident fund in many places

　　The upper limit of the monthly deposit of housing provident fund is determined by the upper limit of the deposit base, which is linked to the average salary of employees in the previous year. According to the notice of the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development and other three departments, the upper limit of the deposit base of provident funds in various places is three times the average monthly salary of local employees in the previous year.

　　Recently, the housing provident fund management departments in many places have issued notices one after another, clearly stipulating the upper limit of the individual housing provident fund deposit base or the upper limit of the monthly deposit amount in the new provident fund year (July 1, 2018 to June 30, 2019). If Beijing is clear, the upper limit of the deposit base of housing provident fund in the new year is 25,401 yuan, and the upper limit of the monthly deposit is 6,096 yuan. Guangzhou and Tianjin, both first-tier cities, issued a document clarifying the upper limit of the monthly deposit base of the provident fund, which is 24,654 yuan and 24,240 yuan respectively. Nanjing has made it clear that the upper limit of the provident fund deposit base is 25,300 yuan.

　　With the increase of the average wage of employees in last year, according to statistics, from a national perspective, the upper limit of the monthly deposit of housing provident fund in a few cities such as Beijing, Nanjing, Jinan and Lishui exceeded 6,000 yuan (corresponding to the deposit base of provident fund of 25,000 yuan). Among them, the upper limit of the monthly contribution of the provident fund in Jinan and Lishui exceeds that in Beijing.

　　Enterprises with difficulties in production and operation may apply for reducing the deposit ratio.

　　The housing provident fund management departments in many places issued a notice saying that enterprises with production and operation difficulties that meet the prescribed conditions can apply for reducing the proportion of housing provident fund deposit or delaying the payment of housing provident fund according to procedures.

　　Beijing has clarified the specific conditions for enterprises to apply for reducing the proportion of provident fund deposits or delaying payment. For enterprises with difficulties in production and operation, if there is no workers’ congress or trade union through discussion, with the consent of more than two-thirds of all employees, they can apply for reducing the proportion of housing provident fund deposit or applying for holdover within 1%-4%.

　　According to Shanghai regulations, enterprises with difficulties in production and operation that meet the prescribed conditions may apply for reducing the proportion of housing provident fund deposit or delaying the payment of housing provident fund. Enterprises can apply to reduce the deposit ratio to less than 5%. Enterprises applying for reducing the deposit ratio or holdover of housing provident fund shall be discussed and approved by the workers’ congress or trade union of the unit and apply to the municipal provident fund management center.

　　Tianjin stipulates that enterprises with difficulties in production and operation can apply for reducing the deposit ratio after discussion and approval by the workers’ congress or the workers’ congress (trade union), and the reduction ratio will be adjusted from the current 5% for the unit and 5% for the employees to 1% for the unit and 1% for the employees. At the same time, the requirement of "loss in the previous year" for applying for reducing the proportion will be cancelled.

　　Nanjing stipulates that if it is really difficult for an enterprise to make a deposit, it may reduce the deposit ratio or postpone the payment after being discussed and approved by the workers’ congress or the trade union of the enterprise and audited by the Nanjing Housing Provident Fund Management Center (sub-center). After the economic benefits of the enterprise improve, the deposit ratio will be increased or the deposit will be resumed and the deferred payment will be paid. The minimum deposit ratio shall not be less than 5%.

　　Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, May 15th　Special feature: the glory of Silk Road, ancient and modern — — China and Central Asian countries draw a new picture of cultural exchanges.

　　Xinhua News Agency reporter Qiu Xia

　　The Millennium Silk Road is full of vicissitudes. The imprint of the blending of civilizations is fixed in the historical picture scroll and is not erased by time.

　　More than 2,000 years ago, Zhang Qian sent a mission to the Western Regions to open the ancient Silk Road across the east and west.

　　For more than 2,000 years, China and Central Asia have exchanged needed goods, learned from each other and helped each other, leaving stories and legends for the history of human civilization.

　　Civilizations communicate because of diversity, learn from each other because of communication and develop because of mutual learning. Today, China and Central Asian countries have inherited the Silk Road spirit of peaceful cooperation, openness, tolerance, mutual learning and mutual benefit, and are constantly pioneering and innovating in cooperation fields such as archaeology, education, health, tourism, journalism, and local exchanges, so as to jointly build a pluralistic and interactive cultural exchange pattern and make the friendship lasting for thousands of years more deeply rooted in people’s hearts.

　　This is a gold cup with cloisonne pattern, which was shot in Shaanxi History Museum on May 11th. In the Tang Dynasty, except for some objects with handles, they came directly from Sogdian in Central Asia, and some of them belonged to the works imitated by Sogdian in the Tang Dynasty. These objects are precious material evidence for the exchange and mutual learning between eastern and western civilizations through the Silk Road. Xinhua News Agency reporter Li Yibo photo

　　The ancient city of Silk Road has a new look.

　　"The land is fertile, the crops are planted, the trees are lush, the flowers and fruits are luxuriant, and there are many good horses." More than 1,300 years ago, when Xuanzang, a monk in the Tang Dynasty in China, passed through Samarkand, a historic city in Central Asia, he recorded fascinating rich and beautiful scenery.

　　Samarkand, Tashkent, Bukhara … … Ancient cities, like pearls scattered along the Silk Road, connect the historical memories of friendly exchanges between China and Central Asia.

　　However, some ancient cities are in disrepair and need to be protected urgently; Some historical sites are lost in the dust of history, waiting for the moment when the "mystery veil" is unveiled.

　　In September 2022, during his state visit to Uzbekistan, the Chairman of the Supreme Leader prepared a national gift for President Mirziyoev — — Miniature model of historical and cultural relics of the ancient city of Shiva restored by China and Ukraine. On the eve of the visit, the Chairman of the Supreme Leader published a signed article in the Uzbek media, in which he specifically mentioned: "The protection and restoration project of historical sites in the ancient city of Shiva, which I started when I visited Samarkand in 2013, has been successfully completed, making the ancient city of Shiva even more dazzling."

　　"In the process of restoration, China experts and scholars live in Shiva, and discuss how to carry out their work better every day, and communicate and cooperate directly with local experts and people." Ma Chalib Abdulaev, deputy director of the Scientific Development Promotion Center of the Academy of Sciences of Uzbekistan, said that the restoration work is very difficult. While using modern technology, China experts pay attention to the use of local traditional crafts and materials, and always strive to preserve the original features of the ancient city.

　　"China experts always work very hard and treat the ruins of the ancient city of Shiva with care. In the process of working with them, I feel the sincerity of China experts and their cherished attitude towards Uzbek culture. I am very grateful and respect China experts. " Cormier Olimov, a local resident who participated in the restoration of the ancient city of Shiva, said.

　　This is the ancient city of Shiva, Uzbekistan, which was filmed on April 29th. Xinhua news agency

　　From the ruins of Mingtiepei ancient city in Uzbekistan to the ruins of Lachart ancient city in Isei Crate, Kazakhstan, and then to the ruins of Buddhist temple on the west side of Honghe ancient city in Kyrgyzstan, China and archaeologists from Central Asian countries have made concerted efforts to make the relics that witnessed the blending of civilizations reappear in the world through excavation results.

　　In June 2014, the Silk Road: Chang ‘an — The road network of Tianshan Corridor was successfully listed in the World Heritage List. The Millennium Silk Road, connecting points into a line and connecting lines into a network, is a powerful force for China and Central Asian countries to work together to protect cultural heritage.

　　Spring breeze melts rain and moistens peaches and plums

　　With the "Chinese fever" and "China culture fever" heating up in Central Asian countries, Confucius Institutes and Confucius Classrooms have long been "full of peaches and plums". In recent years, as a "rising star", Luban Workshop is building a new platform for vocational education exchanges and cooperation between China and Central Asian countries.

　　The first Luban workshop in Central Asia — — In Luban Workshop, Tajikistan, teachers from China and Tajikistan are conducting exchanges and discussions on thermal energy specialty. Unexpected challenges have made them difficult: there are differences in related formulas and numbers between the two countries. Even if the Chinese teacher speaks a sentence and translates it, the Tajik teacher still can’t understand it. After repeated discussions, teachers from both sides finally found an effective communication method — — Explain theoretical calculation in practical operation.

　　Luban Workshop in Tajikistan was jointly built by Tianjin Vocational College of Urban Construction Management and Tajikistan University of Technology, with urban thermal energy application technology and engineering survey technology as the co-construction majors. It has two teaching areas, namely, green energy training center and intelligent surveying and mapping training center, equipped with bilingual teaching materials, training equipment and information-based teaching resources.

　　"In Luban Workshop, we can learn to operate advanced equipment, which greatly improves our theoretical and practical knowledge." Saidov, a surveying and mapping student at Tajikistan University of Technology, said.

　　On April 12th, in the Luban Workshop in Dushanbe, the capital of Tajikistan, Wu Zhengpeng (first from the back row), a teacher from Tianjin Vocational College of Urban Construction Management, explained the practical knowledge of surveying and mapping to students. Luban Workshop in Tajikistan is the first Luban Workshop in Central Asia. Xinhua News Agency (photo by Ospanov)

　　Shahriyol Sadurozoda, president of Tajikistan Luban Workshop and vice president of Tajikistan Technical University, said that thanks to the joint construction of the Belt and Road, with the joint efforts of the leaders of the two countries, Luban Workshop settled in Tajikistan, which promoted civilized exchanges and educational cooperation and became an example of friendly relations between Tajikistan and China.

　　In recent years, the road of educational cooperation between China and Central Asian countries has become wider and wider, the number of international students sent to each other has continued to increase, cooperation and exchanges between universities have become increasingly close, and the joint school-running model has been continuously expanded … … In January 2022, at the video summit of the 30th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and five Central Asian countries, China announced that it planned to provide 1,200 China government scholarships to five Central Asian countries in the next five years, giving priority to the establishment of Confucius Institutes and Confucius Classrooms in Central Asian countries.

　　Intersection across time and space centers

　　In Almaty, the largest city in Kazakhstan, there is a street named after China people’s musician Xian Xinghai, and there is also a street named after Kazakhstan musician Bahad Jean Baikadamov not far away. Two parallel streets record the friendship between two musicians during the war.

　　In 1940, Xian Xinghai was sent by the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China from Yan ‘an to Moscow to post-produce and score the documentary Yan ‘an and the Eighth Route Army. After the outbreak of the Great Patriotic War of the Soviet Union in 1941, film production came to a standstill. In 1942, Xian Xinghai moved to Almaty. Unaccompanied, poor and sick, Xian Xinghai got selfless help from the Baikadamov family. In Almaty, Xian Xinghai composed famous music works such as National Liberation, and based on the deeds of Kazakh national heroes, he created the symphonic poem Oman Geld, which inspired people to fight against fascism.

　　Through time, the touching stories of the two musicians have been passed down from generation to generation. Erect monuments, hold concerts, publish books and co-produce films … … Their friendship has been celebrated and remembered, and it has become a precious spiritual wealth in people’s hearts.

　　On May 13th, 2019, China and Kazakstan co-produced the feature film "Musician" and held its premiere conference and ceremony in Beijing. The film tells the story of China musician Xian Xinghai who moved to Almaty during World War II and was rescued by Kazakh musicians in a cruel environment. The picture shows the film’s creative staff and guests taking a group photo at the premiere conference. Xinhua News Agency reporter Shen Bohan photo

　　Similarly, taking art as a bridge, in 2021, the animated short film "Song of a New China" created by Turkmenistan girl Chris in China was launched, which became an "explosion" of network positive energy. The short film of nearly 8 minutes vividly shows the birth process of March of the Volunteers and tells the story of its going from China to the world.

　　During the creative period, Chris and friends from China visited the National Anthem Exhibition Hall, Nie Er’s former residence, Nie Er Music Square, EMI Xiaohonglou and other places, collected a lot of written materials and remake more than a thousand old photos, and finally created a short film in the form of freeze-motion animation. "I am very happy to tell the story of the national anthem of New China in an innovative and interesting way. This story deserves to be understood by more people." Chris hopes to shoot more films in the future and show the world a real China.

　　In recent years, more and more young people from Central Asian countries have become attached to China and become ambassadors of friendship — — Ruslan, who donated panda blood, Ken Jebeyev, who fought against the epidemic several times, and Ma Wenxuan & HELIP, who lamented that "I am a foreigner, but not an outsider"; …

　　Navai, a famous Uzbek poet, said, "There is nothing better than living in friendship." Friends get closer, neighbors get closer. During the frequent visits, China and the people of Central Asian countries have closer hearts and deeper feelings, and will continue to jointly paint a beautiful picture of knowing each other, dating each other and interacting with each other. (Participating in reporters: Zhang Jiye, Li Ao)

This article is revised according to an interview with Ying Da, the director of I Love My Family, and the material is provided by Xinxing Publishing House.

There are many political jokes in I Love My Family. Why can it pass the censorship?

　　　　　　　　At that time, it was difficult to pass the censorship, which was similar to that now, but the consultant of our play was Wang Guangying (vice chairman of the Sixth and Seventh National Committees). In 1993, he was elected as the vice chairman of the National People’s Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC)), the leader of the Party and the state.

　　　　　　　　It’s not generally getting support, (this) was taken by his company. The closing subtitles of I Love My Family show China International Culture and Art Center and Changchun Hengda Enterprise Development Co., Ltd., and Wang Guangying is the chairman of China International Culture and Art Center. He also came to the scene when we were filming, and he also came to turn it off, so he may pay a little attention to the censorship. I believe he didn’t use his position to say anything, but people will give a green light when they see him.

　　　　　　　　(Seeing the jokes made by Lao Fu) Wang Guangying thought it was funny. He said, What’s wrong with it? So in fact, the really big leaders are very open-minded and have a global concept. If we don’t have a lot of superstitions in the film and television industry, two factors are too beneficial to my success, one is called "Guangying" and the other is called "Hengda". Think about it, isn’t it providence? It must be successful.

How to invite those guest stars?

　　　　　　　　The guest actors in an episode are called guest stars (guest stars), or in English, guest stars. We set a policy that all guest stars must be big names. President DEC, I also have this consideration when I play, because it is too difficult for us to find a wrist, especially if there are few such plays, you have to find a wrist, so I have to keep it for myself. The guest star’s plays are generally full, so since I’m here, I’ll use an episode.

Wei Liu

　　　　　　　　The first guest star we agreed on was Liu Wei, while Zhao Mingming was filming The Kyoto Chronicle. Zhao Mingming and Liu Wei were both in the crew of Kyoto Chronicle, and Zhao Mingming called Liu Wei. Liu Wei didn’t say anything. He was a very, very brave man, and I cooperated with Liu Wei many times later.

Wang Zhiwen, Jiang Shan.

　　　　　　　　And some people also want to try comedy, otherwise their comic talents may never be known. For example, Wang Zhiwen, Wang Zhiwen is one of the best comedians I have ever seen. His comic talent is not below that of any comedian, but no one thought that he would play this role (the mental patient in Friends of Life). You see, he performed a scene in I Love My Family, but how well he performed it!

　　　　　　　　At that time, it was because "Addiction" was very popular, so we said that these two people must come together. Wang Zhiwen agreed in advance that Jiang Shan had been waiting for his time, and we waited for a long time when he was free to come again. At that time, we said that the situation of actors in China was the "Big Six" (Jiang Wen, Ge You, Chen Daoming, ZhangFeng yi, Li Xuejian and Wang Zhiwen), and the crew invited four.

Jiang Wu, Xia Yu, Jiang Wen

　　　　　　　　At the end of Witness, Jiang Wen was not filmed in the shed of I Love My Family, but in the shooting scene of Sunny Days. It was my first time directing a play. At that time, there were too many things and I was in a hurry. I thought in advance that the ending of this episode must be such a bottom, which is also the plot in an American sitcom. This man is a housewife, an aunt, who saw things moving out across the hall. When she asked about it in the past, people said it was from a moving company. At night, the police came and said that things across the hall had been stolen. Ask her if you saw it. The women said they saw it, not only did they see it, but I also bought a porcelain dog from them. At the end of the story, the police asked her to tell her what the man looked like. She said that he looked particularly like Bob Hope (bob hope, an American comedian). As a result, he was the last to appear in this episode.

　　　　　　　　When shooting, we felt that we had to talk about one person at the end, so who? At that time, "Beijingers in new york" was playing, which was very popular. I said that it would be Jiang Wen. It was Liu Bin who played the police. He played many policemen at that time, and he was a "professional policeman", such as Jiang Wen’s Animal Year. Jiang Wen and I know each other very well. He is my classmate in middle school and Liu Bin’s college classmate. We are always playing together. Liu Bin asked what to do if he couldn’t shoot or didn’t want to do it. I said he dared, and he could change his lines if he really couldn’t. Finally, Jia Zhiguo spoke Wang Qiming (the name of Jiang Wen’s role in Peking Man in new york).

　　　　　　　　I then called Jiang Wen and said that we had said it was you, so you had to come. He said yes, but he was filming in other places and was busy editing later, so I forgot about it. Later, Jiang Wen always called me and said whether you would shoot or not. Finally, he said that my crew had two days left in Beijing, and I said that I would shoot tonight. The machine in the shed can’t be used for outdoor shooting. I have to rent the machine again.

　　　　　　　　Jiang Wen is very serious. I really didn’t expect it. (The people standing with him in the play were all found by Jiang Wen). I originally thought that we would just stand there and shoot him last. There are Liezi and Er Yong in front of them, both of whom are figures. Er Yong is the son of Zhang Yongshou (actor and director), who was the production director of Jiang Wen at that time. Jiang Wen called Jiang Wu and Xia Yu, who was still a child and had no place to stay in Beijing, and followed him every day. Now, this "child" is married.

Cai Ming

　　　　　　　　Originally, I wanted to ask Cai Ming to play it directly, but I can’t say it directly. At that time, Song Dandan and Cai Ming were equivalent to two comedies "Big Sisters". Although they had never made such a comparison, the people thought so, and they had never cooperated before. I came forward to ask her to play a supporting role for Song Dandan, which is tantamount to degrading others, so I don’t think she is necessarily willing to participate. But Cai Ming is really getting worse. Let’s invite her to the scene first. After reading it, she said, needless to say, I want to act. Later, I directed a play specially for Cai Ming, which led to the later "Sister Ma" series. Yang Qing was also introduced from me, so I have a relationship with a female comedian.

Ge You

　　　　　　　　In 1988, Ge You, Liang Tian, Zhang Guoli and others first made The Stubborn, which was a work by Wang Shuo. At that time, I found that Ge You was an excellent actor. The following year, due to a very good chance, Ge You and I made a film "Yellow River Ballad". I was the deputy director, and he played a supporting role, a villain and a bandit. We shared a room, so I was very thin at that time, because I didn’t snore when I lived with him, a man who loves insomnia. Ge You could get up in the middle of the night and turn off the hose in the water room, but he didn’t say I snored. We became very good friends and always had two sips of wine together. I always drink from Ge Youjiao, because I thought drinking Erguotou was for old people. Why do young people drink it? Ge you always said you had to have some, some. He had few scenes in that play. We filmed in northern Shaanxi and Ningxia, and there was nothing around. There was only one court around the small county. Ge You really had nothing to do and ran to the court to listen to the trial. When he came back, he told me that I heard an interesting case today. I said, what are you doing listening to this? Anyway, we became good friends and drank together every night. When he came back from filming, he took pig ears and dried tofu with scallion. He cut it himself, mixed it with soy sauce and vinegar, and waited for me to come back and drink it together at night. Hey, what did I say about this? Anyway, I think Ge You is a very good actor. Wang Shuo said that’s good. Let’s make a play for him.

　　　　　　　　By 1990, I recommended Ge You to play in Besieged City. Director Huang Shuqin always wanted to play Li Meiting with someone who just won the Golden Rooster Award, but he couldn’t wait. Finally, I told the director that I had a friend named Ge You who could play Li Meiting. Huang Shuqin agreed, Ge You gave a performance, and Huang Shuqin commented that it was great. The story of the editorial department was filmed next year.

　　　　　　　　When filming Farewell My Concubine, we agreed that he (Leslie Cheung) would come to take part in the film, and I called him again in the middle. He said that there was no problem. On what date would he be in Beijing, and we specially moved this episode to those days. But I couldn’t get in touch with Leslie Cheung by phone when shooting. At that time, we said we should forget it, because we had a backup plan, that is, he didn’t come himself, and the plot was also established. The backup tape has also been recorded according to this.

　　　　　　　　Then in the evening, Song Dandan went to … I don’t know why I went to Shijiazhuang to shoot an advertisement, maybe it was a acupuncture point. I don’t remember it clearly now. Anyway, she said that if Leslie Cheung didn’t come, she would go, and it would cost a lot of money anyway. And that’s equivalent to making money for our family. As soon as I saw it, I couldn’t wait for Leslie Cheung, so I let her go. And at that time, I also thought of a remedy, that is, even if she went out for a day, she would come back. In case Leslie Cheung could come again, for example, it was Saturday, and she left on Saturday night, so it was really impossible to shoot on Sunday.

　　　　　　　　She left that night, and there was no one in our family. Leslie Cheung said in advance that he would take part in the singer competition of the "King’s Financial Cup" when he came to Beijing. He was the judge and the venue of the competition was in Poly Building. There was nothing else, so I went to Poly that evening. I checked to see if Leslie Cheung was there, and I found that he was there, besides him, there were many people such as Aaron Kwok. Leslie Cheung was sitting in the judge’s box commenting, so I went over and patted him on the shoulder. He asked, why are you here? I said, we agreed to shoot tomorrow. Can you shoot tomorrow? He said no problem. I thought that Song Dandan couldn’t make it back the next day, so I asked if it was ok the day after tomorrow. He said it wouldn’t work, and I had to leave tomorrow night. Opportunity, so missed. That night, he dragged me to sit on the bench for a long time, pretending to be a judge.

　　　　　　　　Leslie Cheung also mentioned it at that time. What do you think? I’ll just take a photo. I don’t think so, because all the people who shot this scene must be on the scene. We are not short of audiences. The story that peace is not on the scene simply doesn’t make sense, so we have no choice but to adopt an alternative.

　　　　　　　　I remember very clearly that in the "King’s Financial Cup", a little female singer won the championship, and several other singers looked very good to me. Later, I decided to invite this champion (Dai Rao) to sing the ending song of "I Love My Family". It was the first theme song of TV series sung by Dai Rao. Later, I got to know Liang Tian and others, and later I acted in a play.

　　　　　　　　At that time, the title of the "King’s Financial Cup" competition was very loud and was publicized everywhere. There are other particularly strange factors, such as how can I get in when I suddenly go to the competition site? Because it happened that Song Dandan’s sister was a manager in poly theatre, I was free to go in and out of Poly. Now everyone knows the emperor, but I haven’t heard the name before. At that time, it was selling watches, which I found particularly strange. This is the only company I have ever seen that put my last name with "Huang" …

Why don’t so many viewers particularly recognize Meng Zhaoyang?

　　　　　　　　It turns out that many of these plays are simply Liang Tian’s, and Liang Tian has to go. What should I do with so many plays? I have to put them on this character. This thing of comedy performance is simply unclear, which is particularly strange. In fact, it turned out that people said they couldn’t do it, and I dragged them here. At the beginning of this role, we thought … Liang Tian was ugly, wasn’t he? We’re looking for a handsome guy, but at the same time a little rascal …

　　　　　　　　We’re looking for Xu Yajun, and Xu Yajun is going to play a wonderful role. He can play the hooligan’s strength. He played The World Found Back. He was originally recommended by Song Dandan, and Xu Yajun and I are also very good friends. We always play mahjong with them.

　　　　　　　　And if he plays, even if the role is particularly irritating, the audience is willing to forgive him, because he is handsome, handsome boy. As a result, someone in Xu Yajun’s family got sick. Just a few days before the start of shooting, he began to recite words with the script. To be honest, he couldn’t shoot it. At that time, the contract had been signed.

　　　　　　　　At that time, we thought about others. There was a man named Zhong Hao who starred in "The Story of Shrimp Ball" and felt sorry for him. Later, he was asked to play a role in "Start Parking". Many people were invited to audition. First of all, they couldn’t pass Liang Huan, because as long as it was Meng Zhaoyang’s plays, most of them were written by Liang Huan. She just shot herself. The original plays were all written for her brother Liang Tian. Now, if someone else comes, she says I have to see if the young man is handsome. She is naive, so she thinks one is beautiful, this one is not good, that one is not good, so marrying me in the end is also a punishment for her.

　　　　　　　　Zhang Yongqiang (as Meng Zhaoyang) has always been my dad’s pet. My dad dotes on him in the boy and Song Dandan in the girl. They both starred in one of my dad’s plays called "God’s Beloved", so people in the theater (Peking People’s Art) said that Ying Ruocheng was God, and these two were darlings. My father said that you should choose him, and I will also play for you in the last 80 episodes.

　　　　　　　　In fact, many people are like that. I followed my dad’s advice. For example, Wen Xingyu, I originally chose Zhu Xu, and Zhu Xu did have "Heart Fragrance" later, so I started to choose others. My dad later mentioned, aren’t you familiar with Wen Xingyu? I said he wasn’t an actor, and he said he did some plays without an actor, which was not bad. And when Wen Xingyu was idle at home, I was ordered to look for him. Of course, I also had some relations with him, but I didn’t know him completely. Wen Xingyu was a young cadre (51 years old) at that time, and the young cadre played the old man directly when he arrived at the crew.

How did the audience laugh in the play?

　　　　　　　　A good audience has several characteristics. First of all, the culture is high. One of our particularly good audiences came from Peking University, and many of the little baggage in it could be understood, so later we formed a consensus that a sense of humor is directly proportional to the level of education or people’s intelligence.

　　　　　　　　Secondly, it is better to have more girls. Girls love to laugh, while boys, especially older men, don’t. In fact, he felt ridiculous in his heart, but he only laughed in his heart, and he had to be stretched on the surface and carry a shelf. Later, when I discussed the nature of comedy with many people, I said that it was difficult to answer whether men or women had a better sense of humor. If we want to create burdens, write comedies or even perform comedies, men are definitely better than women, and excellent female comedians are rare. But if you want to make fun of it, you can understand your comedy and laugh. Women are much better than men. As soon as we (including the actors) saw that all the people present today were male audiences, we felt that it was over, all of them were older men. When I see all the girls, I say, here we are.

　　　　　　　　"The crew came to my house", that is, the episode of "Cats Ignore Butterflies", started shooting on April 27, and there were no students in the Broadcasting Institute during the summer vacation, which was very deadly. At that time, the Beijing Evening News helped us find audiences, including those from dingfuzhuang Middle School and Coal Cadre Management College, including primary school students, and several scenes were attended by primary school students. Pupils have nothing else, and they are really very happy when they are happy. However, due to the limited educational level, he can’t understand it, but his enthusiasm is really enthusiastic. He is happy when the actors are strange, but he doesn’t understand what he should be happy about, and we are also anxious.

　　　　　　　　There are at least hundreds of kinds of laughter. When we make canned laughter, we try these real laughter again and again, and we can’t change this paragraph. In other words, the director should know what kind of laughter a burden should produce. Shang Jing used my laughter from his "Xiangyang Photo Studio" to "The Story of the Cooking Squad" to "The Legend of Wulin". All of Lin Cong’s "Family with Children" are also laughter borrowed from me.
