Chapter 84: Getting something for nothing? I can't refuse.
Xu Yonghe: "So you have really made up your mind?"
"No regrets?"
Jia Wenyan: "Maybe in the future. But I don't think there's anything wrong with this."
On the rooftop of Yong'an College, Jia Wenyan looked out at the edge of the city.
That is the direction of Yongan Museum and Yongan Paradise.
For Jia Wenyan at the moment, giving up her identity as an administrator of Yong'an College and trying out VR virtual reproduction of historical sites is definitely an option that she cannot afford to take risks with.
Xu Yonghe: "I don't object to you realizing your dream of life, but I think you should also know that the reason I asked you to come to Yong'an College is to prepare for you to succeed me as the president of Yong'an College in the future."
"It's fine to let Shu Wang manage Yong'an Park, which involves IP industrialization, but Yong'an College is a gathering of intangible cultural heritage skills from all over Donghuang. It really needs a manager who can "understand" most of the intangible cultural heritage skills."
Jia Wenyan: "I know, but Grandma Xu, you are still here, right?"
"I just temporarily put down my job as the college administrator. I haven't said I'm leaving the Yongan Department. If necessary in the future, I will take on my responsibilities. But then again..."
"I think Grandma Xu, you should have already made a plan for me not to take over Yongan College."
Xu Yonghe: "Yes, I understand the triangular structure of Wing On Museum, Wing On College and Wing On Theme Park. I also understand that you can't be content to stay in a management position forever, but some talents really can't be easily cultivated right from the start."
Xu Yonghe said this and turned around and leaned against the fence and said:
"It's not difficult to find a manager who can run the academy, but our Yongan College is a school that inherits traditional crafts. Even if the principal doesn't have to do it himself, he should at least have a certain understanding of all the skills in the academy."
"It takes time to cultivate such talents, and I think you should also understand that these craftsmen are willing to come to Yongan College not just because of the platform we provide."
Xu Yonghe: "You are also the key to this."
"Me? Don't make me laugh, Grandma Xu. In the eyes of those experts, I am just a kid with a little talent for craftsmanship."
"But you did make it so that they couldn't ignore you."
"It is true that the craftsmanship and techniques inherited from intangible cultural heritage are kept secret by each family, but in this era of highly expanded information, it is difficult to keep ordinary craftsmanship and techniques secret as in the old society."
"The platform of Yongan College is very good, but they are also worried that you, a "genius", will secretly conquer and replicate their technology."
"Whether to start a business together or be kicked off the table, this is the key to truly threaten those "old stubborn people". To be honest, sometimes I even start to doubt whether there is something wrong with my educational philosophy."
Xu Yonghe: "You know what? Before I came here to talk to you, Shu Wang also rejected my idea of letting him take charge of Yongan Theme Park."
"Princess...Grandma Xu, we..."
Xu Yonghe: "Well, I'm not the kind of stubborn elder. As a literary and artistic worker, I always hope that the younger generation can maximize their interests and strengths."
"That's why I will arrange things for them after I understand their talents and hobbies, so that in my opinion, they can truly combine their hobbies with their lives."
"The technical integration of Yongan College, the animation IP and amusement facilities of Yongan Theme Park. Oh, and if I must mention it, there is also Shu Wang's father's martial arts school.
"You know what? I almost opened the largest martial arts school in the country for your uncle in Xian'an."
Jia Wenyan: "Is this also the reason why you insisted on adding Chinese medicine and Chinese martial arts to the second phase of the construction of Yong'an College?" "Yes, I don't deny that I have a desire for control, but I also think that I should be the kind of elder who is more open-minded and can understand the ideas of the younger generation."
"But from the past to now, none of the younger generations around me have followed the path I arranged for them."
"Later, I even carefully adopted guidance rather than instructions during this process, but the result was..."
Jia Wenyan: "I think this is the inevitable result of your thinking."
Xu Yonghe: "Oh? This is the first time you refute me."
"Maybe this is because of our different perspectives. Grandma Xu, your point of view is that as a parent, you have respected and considered the preferences of the children as much as possible."
"Then you also arranged for us the careers that best combined our interests and lives on this basis. In terms of behavioral logic, as a parent, you have prepared a future for us that is hard to refuse."
"But you may have overlooked one thing, which is that most children choose to accept their parents' arrangements because of the hardships of life."
Jia Wenyan shook the screen saver of the Dragon King of the East China Sea on her phone and said, "I used to wonder why Shu Wang would avoid over-consuming the traffic of the Yong'an Museum even though I agreed to cooperate with the promotion."
"At first I thought he was just trying to prove himself, but as time went on, and the Yongan College project, which was closely related to me, was officially launched, I finally began to understand Shu Wang's idea."
\"He didn't use all means at all costs. This was never because he was conceited, but because he knew very well that you would help him and even the employees around him who started the business with him. "
"That's why he would take it for granted and dare to try project themes that may not be so popular in the eyes of investors."
"I feel the same way. Although we haven't been in contact for a long time, I must admit that your existence gives us the confidence to "run wild". That's why we have the courage to try those most "ideal" goals in our eyes."
"For example, in the previous animated film, even if Shu Wang's "The Story of the Stubborn Stone" failed, you would still help him arrange a chance to try a second animated film, right?"
Xu Yonghe: "They really look alike."
"Oh? Why? Shu Wang also said something similar to me... That may be because I am now experiencing a similar situation as he did back then."
"Yes, but obviously your success rate is much higher than his."
Jia Wenyan: "Thank you for your good wishes. But please don't say that you want to bring us together just because we look alike."
Xu Yonghe: "The fact that you asked this question means that you have guessed that I would not say that."
"The Yongan faction is on the rise, and I can't increase the possibility of my own camp being in disarray at this time. Besides, you two are getting in touch more and more due to work opportunities. If it's really possible, I don't have to do anything."
Jia Wenyan: "Yes. With your personality, I think you would be more inclined to create various opportunities to guide "subtly" rather than "persuasion" as the traditional elders say."
Xu Yonghe: "You are right to think so, but if it were you, I think I might have some more direct methods."
Jia Wenyan: "For example..."
"For example, if you marry my grandson, I will change the names of Yongan College and Yongan Paradise to yours."
"And if you give me a grandchild or something, I will directly make you the first heir to my estate trust."
Jia Wenyan: "That grandma...it's not a good joke."
Xu Yonghe: "Do you think I'm joking?"
Jia Wenyan: "No, this..."
"Well, don't take marriage so seriously. You still say that we, the older generation, are rigid. I think you young people are even more backward than us."
"Marriage is not a blood relationship. The fundamental reason two people can be together is based on a "transaction" that can balance both parties."
"It's like the difference between dating and blind dating. When young people are dating, although it may not be as strict as marriage, appearance, personality, work and family background are all very important and worthwhile factors in maintaining a relationship."
"The foundation of maintaining a marriage is the contribution of both parties. So the best way to maintain a marriage is to make the weight on the other side of the scale so heavy that you are willing to give and exchange more."
"Impulsive feelings are temporary. If you want a long-term and stable marriage, both parties must have a weight that is so heavy that the other party cannot ignore it."
"The essence of marriage is not "I want" but "I can't live without you."
Jia Wenyan: "No, grandma, aren't you afraid that Master will be sad when you say that?"
Xu Yonghe: "What are you afraid of? Although what I said may be utilitarian, I also admit that no matter it was then or now, I really can't leave your master."
"How about it? Did I just say that you suddenly feel like being my granddaughter-in-law would be a good idea?"
"People are like this. As long as you don't reject something, when it is increased, you will unconsciously be moved."
"For example, if you look at the yogurt in the refrigerator in the supermarket, you might not be very interested in it if it is displayed alone on weekdays, but if it is offered at a discount like buy one get one free."
"It's easy to think that something is not on your list and choose it because it's not a bad choice."
"But of course, this kind of thing can't be a one-way thing. If there really is such a day, I think it should be a two-way thing. If both young people feel the same way, they can get the best benefit."
"Don't be fooled by the fact that people on the internet are describing marriage urging as something like a demon. Why are young people afraid of marriage urging? In the final analysis, isn't it because they feel that even if they accept it, they won't be able to live a better life than they do now?"
"If you want the horse to run, you have to feed it with grass. If that day comes, as long as I make marriage beautiful enough to make you feel that you will have everything as long as you get married, I don't believe you will really not be tempted."
"Why is it so easy for negotiations to fall apart when it comes to urging marriage? The bottom line is that most people just take it for granted and are ready to get something for nothing."
