"In the Spring", several old artists have brought extraordinary stories of life. Conductor Taidou Ma Geshun heard the chorus of the students, reflexively waved his hands, and followed the rhythm; actor Qin Yi visited the "Clement" and left a golden handprint on the scene; yan Dingxian, the director of the art film, took off his reading glasses and silently painted Sun Wukong on the spot, which was the final draft he drew for the art film "The Great Haunting of the Heavenly Palace" that year... When Yu Minzhao, the last pianist from Paramount, buckled his ten fingers to the keys, a vivid jazz dance song flowed out, bringing the audience back to more than half a century ago, which made the writer Bai Xianyong excited.
In the literary and art space of the Clemen Salon, the painters related to Shanghai painted the spring in their hearts, Cheng Shifa's "Singing the Spring of the Motherland", Lin Fengmian's "Spring", Wu Dayu's "Breakfast in the Park", Zhang Dazhuang's "See you in the cooking place"... It's all artists pressing the shutter at their own angle to spring. The spring of each painting contains a vision of freedom and hope.

Clement has also become a salon for young artists to communicate freely, and young pianist Song Siheng explores cultural cross-border and artistic innovation on the stage of "Clement". Lu Jinhua, a famous commentator, sang the poems of spring, and young singer Zhang Fantao sang the story of spring. The French singer Anna once wanted to leave Shanghai, and it was at that time that she met "Clement", from which she had a home, and began to sing old songs in Shanghai, opening up a new channel for creation in Shanghai.
In the "spring", the cultural salon boosted the new direction of the city, and the chief designer of the Municipal Planning Institute, Zhong Lu, learned about the story of the Suzhou River at the salon of the "Kelemen", and integrated more cultural elements into the planning of the Jing'an section of the Suzhou River. The cultural and tourism institution "Heart City" founded by returnee Zhu Yining advocates feeling the beauty of the city while walking, and is also a link to show Shanghai culture and art to foreigners.
Yan Hua, founder of the Clemen Cultural Salon, told reporters that the unforgettable moments that once occurred at the salon and every touch contained the city's literary and artistic strength. With the help of people from all walks of life, Clement has become a cultural landscape and will continue to share stories about Haipai culture.
