Rebirth of Rural Literary Life

Chapter 554 Cha Haisheng's Proposal
Come April, the weather is getting warmer.

He Ping confirmed Han Tun's investment in Guandong Film and Television City, and Lin Yanan and Yanan also began to prepare to flex their muscles.

In addition to the Ming and Qing palaces under construction, Guandong Film and Television City has opened up new construction projects.And started the procurement of lighting, photography, clothing, props and other equipment and materials to prepare for the next open source.

The film and television city just started construction today, and He Ping went home after watching the excitement for a while.

As soon as he came out of the film and television city, he saw Cha Haisheng walking towards him.

"Teacher He! Teacher He!" Cha Haisheng waved to him from afar.

"What's the matter? You kid came to the film and television city, why didn't you find someone to find me?" He Ping asked.

"There is something I want to ask you."

"You said."

"Teacher He, I want to adapt "Heroes" into storytelling, what do you think?"

He Ping was a little surprised and asked, "Why do you suddenly have such an idea?"

Zha Haisheng explained: "Teacher He, when I went home this year, I chatted with the villagers. They said that many people in the village were illiterate and couldn't read our novels. But they like listening to storytelling. I think if our novels If it is adapted into the form of storytelling, there should be more audiences."

He Ping thought for a while, and then said to Zhang Haisheng: "Can I ask why you want to adapt your martial arts novels into storytelling? It's because you want to make more money."

Zhang Haisheng scratched his head, "I never thought about making money, I just want more people to know about our novels."

He Ping suddenly laughed, sometimes it is possible to do one thing best without considering the interests.

Cha Haisheng's proposal gave him a reminder.

In fact, when he planned to let the three swordsmen of Beijing University create the martial arts novel "Heroes", he had already thought about the development plan of the novel IP.

But it is still too early to talk about IP adaptation in this era, so he has never mentioned this aspect again.

But today, Zha Haisheng's proposal gave him some ideas. In fact, sometimes, he can not only pursue immediate interests.

Taking "Heroes" as an example, it is somewhat difficult to adapt it into a storytelling book, but if you want to adapt it into an audiobook, there should be no problem.

Although there is no such form of playback in this era, it is not difficult to realize this form of playback, and he believes that audiobooks are similar to the media form of storytelling, and will be welcomed by the majority of storytelling lovers.

"Heroes" has sold tens of millions of copies since its inception, but on average, each volume has only 300 million readers. Compared with the vast group of storytelling lovers, it is a drop in the bucket.

It can't even be compared with the influence of Mr. Jin Yong's works.

If you want to turn this martial arts novel into a big IP known to all, the current sales alone are not enough.

Cha Haisheng's proposal is a good idea.

"Haisheng, you have a good idea."

"Really?" Cha Haisheng asked happily.

He Ping said: "Of course. However, I think it is a bit reluctant to adapt the content of "Heroes" into storytelling. We can change it into an audiobook and broadcast it on radio or TV. The influence of "Heroes" is very helpful. In this way, the influence and even sales of "Heroes" can be further expanded.

I have also told you before that my plan for "Heroes" was just that I felt that the time was not ripe at the time, so I never did it.You reminded me today that if all this goes well, it will be helpful for various adaptations of "Heroes" in the future. "

"that would be great."

He Ping could tell that Cha Haisheng was genuinely happy, not for money.Instead, he is simply happy that his own book can be known by more people and gain greater influence.

"Leave this matter to me, and I will write back to you in a while."

Zha Haisheng bowed to Heping with some excitement, "Mr. He will trouble you, thank you so much!"

He Ping patted him on the shoulder and said, "Stupid boy, why are you being polite to me. You helped me with this matter and reminded me. I have to thank you!"

Not long after the two of them finished talking, they saw the youthful and beautiful Zhang Mingming coming out of the film and television city, dressed up in a bright style.

"Teacher He!" Zhang Mingming greeted Heping, and then said to Zha Haisheng: "Haisheng, let's go!"

Zha Haisheng smiled embarrassedly at Heping: "Teacher He, Mingming and I will go to the county town for a stroll."

Since the opening of the bus in Hantun, the transportation from Hantun to the county has become much more convenient, and in terms of efficiency, it is almost comparable to the public transportation system of later generations.

The common people in Hantun can see the film crews in the film and television city going back and forth between the Guandong film and television city and the county every day.

In fact, sometimes the crew and the construction site are very similar, the same closed environment, the same group of strangers, and the same long time together.

At this time, it is different from the later generations, there is no sky-high salary for one or two.

Whether it is the actors or the staff of the crew, they all receive salaries plus subsidies, and there is no such obvious class distinction within the crew, and the mess is much less.

He Ping smiled and said to the two, "Go!"

He looked at the backs of Zha Haisheng and Zhang Mingming leaving with emotion.

These two people have innocent and romantic personalities, and they met when they were young and ignorant. They are a match made in heaven. He Ping sincerely hopes that the two of them can go on forever.

Compared with this pair of golden boys and girls, the combination of Luo Yihe and Deng Jie is much more normal, and at the same time much more worldly.

It's understandable when you think about it, Feng Lazi is 29 years old this year, and Luo Yihe is three years younger than her.

The age when the two met, they had already gone through social experience, how could they be like the naive and romantic Zhang Mingming and Cha Haisheng?
He Ping is also very curious, where will the two couples whose fate has been changed by him go in the end?
In the past few years of being together, the Three Musketeers of Beijing University have regarded him as a good teacher and helpful friend in life, and he also hopes that they can reap their own happiness.

After standing still for a while, He Ping walked home.

On the way, I met Liu Jiaming who was riding a bicycle with a bunch of things tied to the frame of the bicycle.

"Brother Jiaming, what are you doing here?"

"He Ping, go to the city to buy some wedding things for the boss of the family." Liu Jiaming said cheerfully.

"Yo! That's a good thing, when are you going to hold the wedding?" He Ping laughed.

"It's set for May [-]st. It's coming soon. There's still more than a month left. I still want to come over for a wedding." Liu Jiaming invited.

"Don't worry, I will definitely go when my eldest nephew gets married. By the way, where is the girl's house?"

"My family is in the county seat, and the girl works in a glove factory."

The situation of Liu Jiaming's future daughter-in-law did not exceed He Ping's expectations. Now the people in Hantun are basically looking for women in the county, and some are looking for others in the region.

He Ping has no way to say whether this phenomenon is good or bad, whether there is suspicion of dislike the poor and love the rich.

But at least it can be explained from the side that Hantun's life is indeed much better than before, otherwise, how could people from the county rush to find Hantun's people to marry?
