First of all, the point is, after watching the program, my biggest change is: when someone asks me, where are you from? My answer will not be Jingdezhen, but Leping; When it's my turn to introduce myself, I won't say I'm from Jingdezhen, but I will answer Leping, the so-called drama city, frankly and happily. I have always chosen to answer Jingdezhen, or come from a small county near Jingdezhen, because I want to appreciate the fame of Jingdezhen. I guess I feel a little inferior about the anonymity of my birthplace, partly because of the vague time when it came into my mind, so I tend to choose this standard answer when I meet this question.
Perhaps, in a middle school class, a teacher began to talk, but no one was interested in listening to questions about books, so he asked an extra-curricular sentence: When you are outside and others ask where you are from, what should you answer? People's psychology, first of all, I hope I can say it myself, and others know that it is not a silly expression. What a bird place this is; Second, I am anxious to say that everyone knows that I am anxious to ask you this and that, and I envy you from there; Third, I dare not say it myself. You are so-and-so, I heard that people there are famous for doing so-and-so bad things ... Teacher, facing this question, the answer given in my mind is Jingdezhen. First, famous. Second, many people have heard a lot about the bad things that Leping people do outside, and they also believe a lot, which makes outsiders have a bad impression.
Perhaps, in my mind, there are many stories about Leping people, some from teachers who like to talk about extracurricular topics, some from stories heard by chatting with classmates and so on. Leping people are doing usury outside and watching nightclubs as thugs. It sounds like a story with Jianghu flavor. Good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles, and people's ability to make up stories about bad things is more creative. Nine times out of ten, it is a bad thing, breaking the rules and containing desirable envy.
These fragmentary pictures and old ideas directly make me tend to choose Jingdezhen to answer questions, and then feel embarrassed and embarrassed. But now that I think about it, I know little about my hometown. I only rely on the information of more than a dozen villages I have been to. After studying in a small county for several years, I feel that I know a county-level city with a population of 800,000 and more than 200 villages, just like a frog sitting in a well watching the sky.
Perhaps, I should be curious about everything, empty my existing thoughts, and look at everything with unknown eyes in order to find potential changes.
The CCTV4 city one-on-one program introduces Leping, and the label is drama. The old stage in the village, which once made me disapprove, has become a new business card for the world to know Leping.
There are 200 villages and more than 400 village theaters in Leping county-level city, with an average of two in each village. It is the city with the largest number of theaters in the city, and it preserves quite complete ancient theaters.
This message surprised me and made me realize that I didn't know much about my hometown. Many things you take for granted are extremely interesting and precious to outsiders. From this perspective, going to the outside world will make you discover more things that you used to take for granted before, and there are many other undiscovered aspects.
As Leping people, the stage in the village inadvertently became the most precious childhood picture in memory. When I was a child, the village stage invited the stage team to sing, which was the most grand, lively and festive day. Not every year. As far as I can remember, this village is staged only once every few years. I really pondered my vague memory, only three times. The closest time was the eighth day after the Spring Festival this year, when I invited a stage class to sing, which seemed to mean that all the women in my generation were basically married and ushered in a new generation to celebrate an important event. Unfortunately, I can't go to the theater because I have to go back to work in Shenzhen. The night before I left for Shenzhen, I caught up with the opening ceremony, looked at the stage and redecorated it to make the historical atmosphere more precious. The new change in the cinema is that everyone is shooting with their mobile phones and sending WeChat friends. It's about ten years since I last saw singing in the village. It was an era without mobile phones.
This made me suddenly realize the importance of the stage in the village. I think that after many years, the world is changing rapidly and I am old. When I return to my hometown from the outside world, everything in my hometown has changed beyond recognition, but only one place remains unchanged, that is, the stage in the village. The night before I returned to Shenzhen, I was sad by the safe, comfortable and full of memories on the stage. I felt that my experience was like a dream, and I was confused and lonely about where I was going.
I remember the first time I went to the village to see a play. At that time, I was young. It's time to go to primary school. The lively scenes always attract people, especially children. And the stage in the village is more fun. It has the second floor, which is the perfect angle, attracting children to climb up and down and fight.
Thinking about the architectural style of the stage reminds me that the old houses in the village also inherited this style. The stage is similar to a quadrangle, usually in the middle of the village. Now, its geographical location is the best location for feng shui and convenience. All the year round, it is basically closed and full of mystery. Every year, only when we respect the elderly, will we open the water table and invite the elderly in the village to come here for dinner. My father's generation is very poor, and few people can build big houses by themselves. It is often a few brothers who spend all their money to build a big house. Several brothers live in separate rooms, in front of the hall (living room). At that time, I really lived under the same roof, but I didn't look up. Compared with the rare annual gathering scene today, family relations are definitely very different. After all, the world is constantly changing, and people really need to constantly update their cognition and constantly change iteratively.
In the ever-changing world, it is even more necessary to have a conservative and fixed place like a stage. This unchanging significance is to keep the traces of the past, compare them with coordinates, and even remind them at critical moments. Remind people of the past, slow down and think about it. Who am I, where am I from and where should I go?
