1980 My Literary Era.

Chapter 158
The weather is getting colder and colder. When it snows, Yanjing's winter will come.

Lin Weimin was reviewing manuscripts in his office that day, and Rong Shihui threw a magazine onto his desk.

"What's this?"

"Look, your precious lump has posted something on "Yanjing Literature."

Lin Weimin checked the catalog, saw Yu Hua's name, and posted a short story "Bamboo Girl".

"He voted for me before, and I thought it was a little bit interesting, so I returned it to him."

Rong Shihui asked: "Can't this kid change his mind and vote for him?"

"You don't know him, this kid is very slippery. How could he listen to us so obediently?"

Rong Shihui heard from Lin Weimin's words that the two must have had a battle of wits, and said with a smile: "Little guy, you're so cunning!"

"Young man!"

While chatting, Lin Weimin read through the manuscripts and sorted out the manuscripts that he thought were good. He wrote review comments on these and put them on Rong Shihui's desk.

Put the screened out manuscripts in another pile, and stuff rejection letters into it one by one.

After working for a while, Lin Weimin got up and went to the wall next to the door to fetch another pile of submission letters.

The contribution letters of "Contemporary", or most of the first-line literary magazines these days, are endless. This work seems to have no end, and it is always waiting for the luck of the editors.

"Hey, there aren't any decent works recently!"

Like him, Yao Shuzhi is also looking for writers and works with talent and attitude in this vast pile of letters, but this probability is like finding a needle in a haystack, and at a certain point in time, it will always make people feel a little desperate.

"It's not bad, it's just that it didn't meet our requirements."

Lin Weimin was talking, looking at the envelope of a letter, as if there was some important information on it.

Seeing his serious expression, Yao Shuzhi asked, "Have you found any good seedlings?"

"No." Lin Weimin shook his head, "This man's handwriting is really ugly!"

Yao Shuzhi smiled and said, "How can yours be better than others?"

"It's better than what Zheng Guo wrote in your family."

While bickering, Lin Weimin tore open the envelope, which contained a submission letter and manuscript.

The person who wrote the letter introduced himself as a student of Liaodong University. He claimed to have read more than 2000 domestic and foreign novels over the years, and had his own unique views on literary creation.

During this period of time, he read through the works published by most of the first-line literary journals in China, and he felt that they were very old-fashioned. The writing was neither innovative nor connotative.

The tone of the letter was surprisingly loud, and Lin Weimin smiled a little while reading it.

Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers!
Lin Weimin unfolded his manuscript and put it down after reading it.

The young man has a good idea, but he is still immature. He needs Teacher Lin's guidance.

He first filled the manuscript with densely packed annotations, and then spread out a piece of letter paper to reply to this classmate Ma Yuan who had a strong tone.

This kid thinks very highly of himself, and his arrogance cannot be subdued unless he gets rid of him first. Teacher Lin once again performed the KTV Dafa.

Don't you read a lot of novels?Then let's not talk about novels, such as Maugham and Hawthorne, the more familiar you are, the less I will talk about them. Let's talk about philosophy and history, and talk about the uncommon. This is called an asymmetrical blow.

After chatting for several pages, Lin Weimin felt a little sorry for himself when he looked back.

It's all money!

Boy Ma Yuan, if you don't write a few works for Lao Tzu in the future, you will be sorry for what Mr. Lin has done to you.

In the afternoon, the unit issued coal tickets, and after receiving the coal tickets, I left work.

Riding a bicycle on the road, with the cold wind blowing, Lin Weimin missed the four-wheeled car a bit.

I don't know when we can open it!

This evening, Han Zhuangzhuang made an appointment with his colleague to go to the movies, but he didn't know whether the colleague was a man or a woman. Lin Weimin came to Muxidi by himself with nothing to do.

"Hello, teacher! Hello, teacher's wife!"

As soon as I entered the door, I could smell the aroma of food, and the timing was very good.

Mr. Wan was watching TV on the sofa and waiting for dinner. When he saw Lin Weimin came, he asked him to sit down and chat, "I haven't seen you for a long time."

"Hey, busy all day."

When I came to Mr. Wan, it was inevitable to report on my work and life.

Hearing that "The Cliff" was going to be adapted into a TV series, Mr. Wan was a little happy, "This format is very good. Your novel was broadcast on the radio first, and now it is broadcast on TV, which will greatly increase the spread of the work." .”

"That's true. But the most important thing about this type of adaptation is to be loyal to the original. There are written works first, and then there are film and television works. If the audience cannot accept it, it will also be a kind of harm to the work itself."

Mr. Wan nodded and said, "That's right, you've thought carefully. You don't need to worry too much about this. Comrade Jinshan and the comrades from the TV station will check it out, so there won't be any problems."

Lin Weimin nodded, of course he is not worried now.

After all, these film and television workers are still in the literary and art circles, and they haven't expanded enough to list themselves as a separate circle-the entertainment circle, but it will be hard to say if it takes another 30 or [-] years.

What screenwriters, writers, what a fart!
I am the director/producer/investor/actor, it is your honor to use your stuff, and I will reward you with a bite of food!
The two chatted about "Farewell My Concubine", which Renyi is still preparing. The progress of the preparation of this drama should be considered very slow in Renyi. According to the current progress, I am afraid that it will be fast if it can be performed in the spring of next year.

"A good meal is not afraid of being late, and a good show is not afraid of waiting." Mr. Wan said with a smile.

Taking advantage of the opportunity of talking about "Farewell My Concubine", Lin Weimin mentioned that he let his great nephew Han Zhuangzhuang join Renyi.

"It's okay, you didn't take me for an old fool!"

What Mr. Wan said made Lin Weimin feel ashamed. He wanted to make up for it. At this time, Mr. Wan said: "When the water is clear, there will be no fish, and when people are observant, there will be no disciples. Don't say that I am just a nominal dean now. Even I couldn't completely put an end to this kind of thing back then. But you are my student after all, and this kind of thing must be examined with a magnifying glass."

"Teacher, you have caused trouble." Lin Weimin apologized.

Mr. Wan smiled playfully, "Do you know the difference between going through the back door and breaking the rules?"

Lin Weimin got it right, and nodded at the old man.

The old gentleman showed a mischievous smile.

A few days later, the first snow of the year fell in Yanjing City. Winter came, and getting up early to go to work every day became a suffering.

Obviously riding a bicycle to work last year was a joy, but this year it didn't work. Lin Weimin could only attribute this to Han Zhuangzhuang.

It's all because this kid is too lazy, he led me astray.

When he came to the Guowen Society, Lin Weimin just sat down when he received a registered letter.

It was sent by Ren Hao to Lin Weimin, who has now returned to Qindao from Harbin.

I'm preparing for the crew, I just confirmed the list of actors, and I want to ask for the opinion of Lin Weimin, the original writer and screenwriter.

The letter included not only the list of actors, but also photos of the leading actors for Lin Weimin's reference.

Lin Weimin saw two familiar names at first glance.

Tang Guoqiang and Zhu Lin, they are actually the male and female leading roles in the TV series "The Cliff".

Tang Guoqiang's famous name, Lin Weimin, has of course been heard, whether it is in later generations or now.He is now an actor in the Bayi Factory. He was the number one male when he was electrocuted for the first time at the age of 23. In the past few years, he has acted in several well-known and well-known movies, and has a great reputation.

Chen Xiaoer, who also belonged to Bayi Factory, always gritted his teeth every time he mentioned him, as if he was an enemy for life.

In the 80s, he was not inferior to the so-called "top class" idol stars in later generations. The term "butter boy" was specially invented to criticize him, because he said in an interview that he loves cream cakes.

Zhu Lin, the king of Meimei's daughter country, of course she hasn't played the role of king yet.Lin Weimin has been in contact with Lin Weimin several times before, and his acting skills are, um, hard to describe in words.

Wasn't she transferred to Sichuan Film Studio to be an actress?Where did Ren Hao dig her out?

But thinking that Ren Hao can even find Tang Guoqiang from Bayi Film Studio, it is not uncommon to go to Sichuan Film Studio to find Zhu Lin.

In terms of appearance alone, the two are quite suitable.

The hero and heroine of the novel "The Cliff", Zhou Yi and Gu Qiuyan, are both middle-aged people in their 30s. The most important thing is that Zhou Yi's superficial identity in the novel is a spy of the Puppet Manchukuo, and he speaks and does things with a very accent. Gu Qiuyan, as her wife, should also carry such a demeanor.

Lin Weimin looked at the photo of the two of them, and the makeup photo was very eye-catching, which fit the temperament of the novel.

While Lin Weimin was reading Ren Hao's letter, he also called the editorial department.

"Hello, Teacher Lin, how are you! Have you received the registered letter?"

"Director Ren, hello, I received it."

The two exchanged a few words, and Ren Hao talked about the reason for the call.

After the list of actors was finalized a few days ago, he mailed it to Lin Weimin.

In the past two days, he received a call from a young man named Wang Gang, who was the former broadcaster of "The Cliff" on the Liaodong People's Broadcasting Station.

I don't know where I heard that he was preparing for "The Cliff", so I called and proposed to play a role.

Because Wang Gang mentioned a few old acquaintances working at Liaodong TV Station on the phone, Ren Hao didn't directly refuse out of face. He called today just to ask for Lin Weimin's opinion.

"Is there a suitable role for that?"

"There is room for him to move a role."

"Then give him a role! He also broadcast the novel "The Cliff", which is also a kind of fate." Lin Weimin said.

"Okay, let's do what you want, Mr. Lin. By the way, Mr. Lin, do you have any questions about the actors?"

"No, no, it's all good, please take good pictures."

"That's good. It's settled like that. When you are free, you must come to guide and guide when you start filming later!"

"sure."

After hanging up the phone, not long after returning to the office, Lin Weimin found that Liu Yin and Yao Shuzhi were all by his side.

"What?"

"Wei Min, Tang Guoqiang is the leading actor in the TV series adapted from "The Cliff"?" Liu Yin's eyes brightened.

Lin Weimin glanced at the pile of actor photos and letters spread out on the desk, everyone should have seen it, "Yes."

Liu Yin and Yao Shuzhi couldn't help exclaiming, "It's really him!"

"I said what are you doing?"

"Why not? That's Tang Guoqiang!" Yao Shuzhi said in amazement.

Lin Weimin looked at the other gay men in the room, and everyone looked helpless.

This is probably the love of beauty, everyone has it.

How else would there be so many star-chasing girls in later generations?
On this day, the casting of actors for the "Cliff" TV series not only became a hot topic in the editorial department of "Contemporary", but also spread throughout the Guowen Society in a short period of time.

Not for anything else, just because Tang Guoqiang, a popular niche, starred.

Back home at night, Lin Weimin told Han Zhuangzhuang that Zhu Lin became the heroine of "The Cliff" by mistake. Han Zhuangzhuang was also a little surprised. Zhu Lin was the first classmate in their 80th grade amateur acting class to be the protagonist.

When she was in school, she acted as the heroine in the graduation work "Small Courtyard" by the students of the 78th grade. Now she has just graduated and played the heroine of the TV series directly, and her partner is Tang Guoqiang, a popular niche.

As a man, Han Zhuangzhuang was jealous.

"Uncle, why do you think she is?"

"Why?" Lin Weimin thought for a while, "It's probably...face?"

Han Zhuangzhuang nodded after listening, "Don't say it, it really is. Zhu Lin is not only in our class, but even if you count our entire acting department, she is also the most beautiful. Even among the college students in the 78th grade, there is no one who is older than her." It's pretty."

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little frustrated, "Uncle, is it so important to be an actor?"

Lin Weimin comforted: "Your route is different from theirs."

"Why is it different?"

"You are a powerful faction."

Han Zhuangzhuang yelled: "You just call me ugly?"

It's over, it hurts the child's heart.

"Uncle didn't mean that..."

"Old uncle, don't talk about it. I understand. Do you know Zhou Lijing in our school's 78th grade?"

Lin Weimin nodded. Of course Zhou Lijing knew that, like Tang Guoqiang, the 80s red-hot young boy who was still studying at Yan Ying, there were a bunch of directors looking for him to act.

"When we were in school, we heard that a director wanted to ask him to make a movie, but the teacher always rejected him, saying that he is still young and his foundation is not solid, and he still needs to focus on his studies.

The teachers never worried that if they rejected this or that director, Zhou Lijing would have no filming in the future.Because the teachers all know that Zhou Lijing is the kind of person who was born to eat this bowl of rice, just like you, uncle, were born to eat this bowl of rice. "

When Han Zhuangzhuang said this, a bit of melancholy appeared on his face, "I used to be ignorant when I was in Shanghai Film Studio, and I was stupid when I went to school. I don't think so. Now that I have entered Renyi, I gradually understand that this kind of It's called talent, and it doesn't even require hard work, it's really enviable!"

Listening to Han Zhuangzhuang talking to himself, Lin Weimin realized for the first time that the eldest nephew is not so stupid, sometimes the child just doesn't talk.
