1980 My Literary Era.

Chapter 260 The Advisor of the Grandchildren

Leng Jiefang muttered the pen name Lin Weimin gave him: "Er Yue He, Er Yue He..."

The more he read it, the more artistic conception and profound meaning he felt. Teacher Lin seemed to have guessed his thoughts.

"Mr. Lin, your name is really good." Leng Jiefang said excitedly.

Lin Weimin was very happy with the cold liberation. It seems that Comrade Jiefang is not so unreasonable!
"You don't know. My hometown is in Shanxi. When I was two years old, I followed my parents across the Yellow River and went down the Yellow River. After going through many twists and turns, I finally settled in Nanyang. The pen name Eryuehe just contains the intention of the mother river in my hometown. It's great. !"

Looking at Comrade Jiefang's gratified and honored expression, Lin Weimin was secretly vigilant, Comrade Jiefang's level of flattery is a bit high!
Today Lin Weimin went to the "Dream of Red Mansions" symposium. He had taken a day off, but he showed up at the Guowen Society in the afternoon.

"Weimin, why did you go back to work?" Tan Chaoyang asked in surprise when he saw Lin Weimin in the corridor.

"Something happened."

"what's up?"

Lin Weimin pulled Tan Chaoyang into the office, took out a stack of manuscript paper, "Look at this!"

Qin Zhaoyang took the manuscript paper, did he receive another good manuscript?
He sat back in his chair and flipped through the manuscript.

After reading the first [-] to [-] words, Tan Chaoyang turned to the last few pages of the manuscript, "Is this novel not finished yet?"

"Ok!"

Lin Weimin nodded, and recounted what happened to him after the meeting today.

"So, now people have been arranged in the guest house?"

"Ah."

"You want to post this novel?"

"Ok?"

"Keep him in the dark room all this time? Don't let him out until he finishes writing?"

Lin Weimin looked embarrassed, "Leader, who do you think I am?"

"Do you dare to say that you don't think so?" Comrade Lao Tan didn't care about his colleagues' face at all.

Lin Weimin was angry, "I...I am not doing this for our publication!"

I would have my heart set on the bright moon, but the bright moon illuminates the ditch!

Teacher Lin looked up to the sky and sighed!

"That's enough, that's enough!" Tan Chaoyang reassured, "I know you love your job and work hard, work hard and serve the public wholeheartedly!"

"Look at how reluctant you are, don't boast if you don't want to!"

Tan Chaoyang glared at him, "Virtue!"

Lin Weimin said sternly: "There is nothing wrong with this novel, right? I promise that it will be published!"

Tan Chaoyang said helplessly, "Can you delay your big talk, kid, because you always do things like killing first and playing later?"

Lin Weimin's boldness really made Lao Tan both love and hate.

What I love is that his decisive and bold actions have brought high-quality manuscripts to "Contemporary" again and again. What I hate is that he has no organizational discipline at all, and he does not care about the overall work of the editorial department.

"Time doesn't wait for me! After passing this village, there is no such shop. Just tell me how the quality of this manuscript is?"

Lin Weimin didn't care about Lao Tan's nagging at all. He knew that as long as he got a decent manuscript, Lao Tan had always been very tolerant of him.

Qin Zhaoyang's eyes flicked on the manuscript paper, "Well~, if you maintain this level, you can try to publish it."

"What is trying to publish? Yao Xueyin's "Li Zicheng" can win the Yanbing Literature Award."

"Writing a historical novel should win the Yanbing Literature Award?"

"That's not what I mean. I think this novel has the potential to become a work like "Li Zicheng."

Tan Chaoyang said in a deep voice, "At present, it seems almost meaningless, but I don't know what it will be like after writing it."

He flipped through the manuscript again and asked, "How long do you plan to write?"

"The content of the four volumes, this is the first volume."

Qin Chaoyang looked at Lin Weimin unexpectedly, "Then there must be a million words at least?"

"It's hard to say. Looking at the content in front of him, the content of this volume alone will have 40 to [-] words. After writing all four volumes, it will not be able to contain a million words."

"Having such ambition and pen power is worth cultivating!"

A million-word novel is not something ordinary writers can handle.

Lin Weimin was slightly complacent, "Otherwise I can bring him back!"

"Okay, let him write upstairs with peace of mind."

"Got it!"

Early the next morning, Lin Weimin just entered the office.

Liu Yin asked gossipingly: "Wei Min, I heard that you picked up an author on the street yesterday?"

Ok?
Old Tan!

Regardless of Lin Weimin's explanation, colleagues gathered together to gossip.

Why does the matter of drafting manuscripts become weird when it comes to Lin Weimin?

"Hey, Weimin!" Yao Shuzhi called out to Lin Weimin.

"what?"

Yao Shuzhi threw over a newspaper, which was today's "Yanjing Daily".

The title of the article in the newspaper reads impressively: "Advisory Committee Formed for TV Series "Dream of Red Mansions"".

The article is not long, about a thousand words.

In the last paragraph, the list of the advisory committee of "Dream of Red Mansions" was mentioned. Among the names of the big names, the three words "Lin Weimin" were particularly eye-catching, and they were at the bottom of the list of advisory committees.

"Okay, now we're all consultants for "Dream of Red Mansions"!" Yao Shuzhi's expression was somewhat amazed.

Lin Weimin did not disclose the fact that he was invited to become a member of the advisory committee of "A Dream of Red Mansions" to those around him. His colleagues and friends were naturally surprised when the news suddenly came out today.

Liu Yin and the others who were chatting over there found Yao Shuzhi chatting with Lin Weimin and asked, "What are you two talking about?"

Yao Shuzhi waved the newspaper in her hand, and said, "Stop talking about your trivial matters, and see what big things our editor-in-chief Lin has done in a muffled voice!"

Everyone was puzzled. Listening to Yao Shuzhi's meaning, what has Lin Weimin done again?

When they saw the contents of the newspaper in Yao Shuzhi's hand, everyone's faces were filled with surprise.

"Wei Min, is this you?" He Qizhi pointed to the name on the last line.

Lin Weimin shrugged, "Yes."

Zhu Changsheng followed closely: "How can you join the advisory committee?"

"Why can't I be on the advisory committee?"

Liu Yin said: "Look at the names in front of you, how can you enter?"

"You are calling people inferior!" Lin Weimin scolded viciously.

Everyone was not angry, but continued to sarcastically say: "I have to look down on you, and I don't even look at who is in front of you!"

Everyone chatted and discussed, and agreed that the list of the advisory committee had lost credibility because of Lin Weimin's shit.

"All right, all right, I admit it, I just got in there, who gave me a good teacher!"

Lin Weimin had no choice but to put on an unscrupulous attitude, which made everyone's teeth itch with hatred!

The chatter in the office did not cause any waves, but the news reported by "Yanjing Daily" did attract the attention of many people.

The news that "Dream of Red Mansions" will be adapted into a TV series has been circulating for several years. Since the year before last, news has spread intermittently. This year, the news is particularly frequent, one after another.

Whether it is the common people or the cultural circles, they all know that the birth time of the "Dream of Red Mansions" TV series is getting closer, and naturally they are more concerned.

Because "Dream of Red Mansions" needs to set up an expert advisory group for the filming of the TV series, all the well-known experts in the domestic cultural field are invited. Everyone is happy to see the success of this.

Ordinary people are not familiar with most experts, they only believe in media reports.

The newspaper said that all the experts invited were master-level experts, that is, experts of the master-level.

Over the past few years, Lin Weimin's works have become more and more popular. His published and published works often sell millions of copies. However, compared with China's population of over one billion, even if this figure is increased by ten times, it seems that the negligible.

There are many literature lovers, but there are more ordinary people.

Lin Weimin's name is well-known among literary lovers across the country, but it is still not well-known among ordinary people who only pay attention to daily necessities, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea.

When many people see Lin Weimin's name, their first reaction is still unfamiliar. Only when they ask the literature lovers around them, will they know that Lin Weimin is a writer.

After taking a closer look, it turns out that he is still so young, which is even more surprising.

Comparing with other experts in the advisory committee, Lin Weimin is even young enough to be their grandchildren.

Lin Weimin's name once again appeared in front of ordinary people across the country on a large scale.

The last time he had this level of exposure was when "The Cliff" was on the air, the small line of text in the opening title of the TV series.

Two days later, the editorial department of "Contemporary" received a call.

It is said that Yanjing, Jinmen, and North Hebei Federation of Literary and Art Circles jointly held an "urban literature theory symposium" in Beidaihe, and invited Lin Weimin to participate in the meeting.

Lin Weimin scratched his head while holding the phone.

Urban Literary Theory?

What is this?
After careful questioning, daring affection is still a new concept.

The call to invite Lin Weimin was not out of purpose, but they planned to bring Lin Weimin's "Speak Well" to the symposium as a typical representative of "urban literature" for discussion, so as to explore the meaning of "urban literature". Questions of concept, scope and character.

"Speak Well" has not received much attention and influence among Lin Weimin's works, even if it is published, the sales volume is still at the bottom. Novels with this theme have certain audience limitations in the domestic novel market sex.

Lin Weimin was very surprised to receive the invitation this time, but he politely declined the kindness of the Federation of Literary and Art Circles.

It would take at least a few days to go to Beidaihe. If you have that time, you might as well rest for a few days.

Since he became famous, Lin Weimin has received invitations to various activities such as pen meetings, symposiums, creation meetings, training meetings, etc. almost every few days, sometimes even every day.

Lin Weimin rejected all these activities without exception.

As an organizer, he organizes these activities purely out of public interest.

But for himself, such activities are too time-consuming and energy-consuming.

Compared with this kind of activity, he prefers gatherings with three or five friends.

The next day, Lin Weimin went to CCTV.

This time it's not about "Dream of Red Mansions". Right now, the screenwriter team of "Dream of Red Mansions" is hurrying up to write the script, and the script is also intensively preparing for the shooting and selecting actors.

He came this time for the TV series "Latent".

Compared with the massive "Dream of Red Mansions" TV series, the work of the crew of "Latent" is much more low-key.

The fact is also the same. For the TV series "Dream of Red Mansions", CCTV paid 500 million with a wave of its hand. In this era of Chinese TV industry, this is a record-breaking figure.

In the next few years, this figure will rise to 680 million yuan due to various unexpected circumstances after filming, making "Dream of Red Mansions" the most expensive TV series of this era.

As for "Latent", although the director Wang Feng personally poached the director Ren Hao, got the authorization of Lin Weimin to adapt it, and invited senior screenwriter Tang Peilin, the total investment is only 30 yuan.

Compared with "Dream of Red Mansions", one is in the sky and the other is underground.

Even compared with other TV dramas invested by CCTV, it is not outstanding.

The reason is that the scenes involved in "Latent" are too small, and even the protagonist's costume is more than one level behind "Cliff".

There is really no place to spend money!
I met several behind-the-scenes creators of the crew in the broadcasting compound, and the communication went smoothly.

Screenwriter Tang Peilin devoted half a year to creating the script for "Latent", and the effect of the script is also in line with Lin Weimin's expectations.

After the script was finalized, Ren Hao and Lin Weimin discussed the actors.

During the period when Tang Peilin was writing the script, the crew of "Latent" was not idle. The preparatory work has been completed, and the final confirmation of the list of actors is short.

This time, Ren Hao chose Li Zhiyu and Siqin Gaowa as the lead actors.

Li Zhiyu, the actor Lin Weimin is fairly familiar with, having seen his performances in "A Distressed Smile" and "Bashan Night Rain".

His temperament is elegant, which is very suitable for playing the image of literati and intellectuals.

What impresses Lin Weimin the most is his role as Qiushi in "Bashan Night Rain". Many close-up and close-up shots delicately deduce the complex inner world of the characters, giving his characters a deep and restrained sense of humor. Traits, very skillful.

Aside from the preconceived impression of Yu Zecheng in the small-eyed version before time travel, Li Zhiyu is more in line with the image of Yu Zecheng in the novel "Latent", the only disadvantage is that he is old.

But the advantage of male actors is that age has little effect on the image display on the screen.
