1980 My Literary Era.

Chapter 346 I Have Never Seen Such a Fast Man

Just a movie script with tens of thousands of words, I regret it!
As for it?

Lin Weimin didn't realize how exaggerated his efficiency was to Wu Tianming.

It seems that the order of writing should be moved, and "Lover" should be put at the back. Anyway, Yang Meng didn't urge him, Wu Tianming is in a hurry, so let him be tight first.

"Oh! Weimin, you have helped me a lot!"

After deciding on the script, Wu Tianming gave Lin Weimin a good meal and thanked him.

When it was time to come, Lin Weimin wanted to invite Wu Tianming to dinner.

Wu Tianming hurriedly declined, "Don't, don't. You are short on time and have heavy tasks. If you have time, you should finish writing the script first. I will stay in Yanjing for a few days. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. After finishing writing, I will ask You eat!"

After seeing off Wu Tianming, Lin Weimin sighed.

This day, I was as busy as a dog, and I didn't even have time to catch my breath.

A week later, Wu Tianming appeared in Lin Weimin's office again in the editorial department of "Contemporary".

With a "click", Lin Weimin yawned and threw a script on the desk.

Wu Tianming picked up the script, read it a few times, and was ecstatic.

Looking at Lin Weimin, his eyes were full of disbelief, "The script...is it finished?"

I don’t know if it’s because I’m getting older. In the past, writing hundreds of thousands of words a week was just like playing. Now I’m writing a script with tens of thousands of words a week, but it’s so sluggish.

A man with a broken virginity is like an engine leaking oil, the fierceness is still the same, but it won't last.

Lin Weimin said wearily: "Don't you look at it? How about it, okay?"

Wu Tianming glanced at the script, worried about the quality of the script that was produced in a week, "I'll have another look!"

After watching for more than two hours, Wu Tianming raised his head again and looked at Lin Weimin with astonishment.

He said with difficulty: "Brother, is this really the script you came up with in a week?"

"Nonsense!" Lin Weimin pointed to his face.

The bloodshot eyes and tired face made Wu Tianming feel a little apologetic.

"Thank you brother!" Wu Tianming shook Lin Weimin's hand, and said, "I'll treat you tonight!"

Please shit, I just want to sleep now.

After returning home from get off work, Lin Weimin had a good night's sleep, and went to dinner the next evening after get off work.

During the dinner, Wu Tianming took Lin Weimin's hand again and thanked him.

If it wasn't for Lin Weimin's help this time, he would have been ashamed in front of hundreds of employees of Xiying Studio.

He, the director of the West Film Studio, was appointed by the province after the filming of "Life" two years ago.

Wu Tianming is in his 40s this year. He is in his prime, so he naturally wants to do something.

After "Life" was released, it received love and praise from countless audiences, but he was not proud of it. Instead, after being appointed as the director of Xiying Studio, he settled down and took care of the management of the factory.

After two years, Wu Tianming finally got out of his busy factory work to think about his next movie.

After reading the novel "Old Well", he immediately fell in love with the unique temperament of the novel.

Contacting Zheng Yi through Lin Weimin, he felt that everything was under control. After returning to Xiying Studio, he directly prepared to set up a team, and even specially transferred a few talented young people from his brother unit to help.

But he never expected that Zheng Yi was so unreliable that he could skip the ticket after writing a script, and he even blamed Lin Weimin.

Wu Tianming naturally knew that Lin Weimin had nothing to do with this matter, but he couldn't help it. If the script couldn't be released in time, the crew would have to stop working.

Whether to shoot or not to shoot at that time, he will sit on the wax.

Therefore, Wu Tianming could only bite the bullet and come to Lin Weimin.

Fortunately, fortunately, Lin Weimin is a reliable brother!
"Come on, let me offer you another toast. You don't have to drink this one, it's my thanks."

Wu Tianming had another glass of wine, but Lin Weimin hurriedly stopped him, "It's alright, alright, how many toasts do you have? Why can't we make it through?"

He stopped Wu Tianming, changed the subject and asked, "You just said that you transferred people from other factories, is it necessary?"

Wu Tianming sighed and said, "If the people in the factory can do the job, do I need to transfer people outside? I didn't know how troublesome it is to manage the studio until I took over."

He put down his wine glass, "It's not that our factory is short of talents, it's just that there are too many films that we want to shoot, and there are not enough people. Speaking of this, I'm really envious of Guangxi. A batch of good seedlings can now stand alone."

"Guangxi Film Studio? Is it the young people like Zhang Yimou and Cheng Kaige?"

"You know?" Wu Tianming was slightly surprised.

"Of course I know. I was the one who supervised their graduation works!"

Wu Tianming said with a smile: "It's really a coincidence. Guangxi attaches great importance to this group of college students, and has set up a special youth film crew. Hey! Just two years after graduation, they dare to let this group of students direct and hold the film. Mirror, I can't match this courage."

Wu Tianming shook his head while talking, and then said: "By the way, there is a photographer in "Old Well" this time, and he is a college student I seconded from Guangxi."

"Zhang Yimou!" Lin Weimin subconsciously said.

Wu Tianming nodded, "That's right, you really know."

Lin Weimin smiled and said, "I don't just know him. Brother Tianming, tell me, how about letting Zhang Yimou play Sun Wangquan?"

Lin Weimin's sudden leap of thought stunned Wu Tianming for a moment, "Let him play Sun Wangquan? Why?"

"It's nothing, I just think he looks right. When this kid was in Yanying, I thought he was 60 or 78 years old at first glance, but after inquiring, I realized that Ganqing is still at level [-].

With his face, playing the role of a bitter and bitter farmer, he didn't even save makeup and styling. "

Lin Weimin's face was relaxed, and his tone was casual.

Facing this proposal, Wu Tianming pondered.

Lin Weimin's proposal sounded a little ridiculous at first, but he thought about it carefully, thinking about Zhang Yimou's face, his way of speaking, his walking posture, and his style of doing things.

Let Zhang Yimou play the hero Sun Wangquan, it seems that it is not impossible!
"How is it?" Lin Weimin asked after a while.

Wu Tianming smiled and said, "I think you can try it!"

Lin Weimin also laughed. In the entertainment circle of later generations, all the stars who can't pull their hips in their majors all have the face to develop in a variety of movies and songs, and later even live broadcast and bring goods.

The national teacher's way of directing and acting in ambivalence can't let his own butterfly be broken. Otherwise, what will the audience use to mock those Gou Jiebaos who are not stars in the future?
The script of "Old Well" was completed, and the time was far shorter than Wu Tianming's imagination.

Don't say a week, it's a month. Lin Weimin has to be grateful for being able to get the script out.

Wu Tianming recalled Lin Weimin's performance when he discussed time with Lin Weimin that day.

Really, he has never seen such a fast man in his life!
Wu Tianming happily returned to Xi'an with the script of "Old Well". Before leaving, he left 5000 yuan for Lin Weimin's manuscript fee.

He also knows Lin Weimin's current level of manuscript fees, but unfortunately the film's production funds are limited.

Although 5000 yuan is nothing compared to Lin Weimin's draft fee standard, it has already broken through the ceiling in the script draft fee of domestic studios.

Last year, the State Publishing Bureau released the "Regulations on Various Contribution Remunerations for Feature Films": each long feature film is 1500-4000 yuan, and each short feature film is 750-2000 yuan.

And since "Old Well" is an adaptation, the original author also has to pay.

According to regulations, 20%-30% of the manuscript fee should be paid to the original author.

Therefore, the royalties paid by Xiying Studio for the film "Old Well" actually exceeded 6000 yuan.

But Wu Tianming paid the manuscript fee willingly.

Not only because Lin Weimin completed the adaptation of the script quickly and well, but more importantly, he was a rescuer.

It is almost an impossible task to produce a movie script in a week and put it on other screenwriters, but Lin Weimin did it.

For that alone, it's worth the money.

After Wu Tianming left, Lin Weimin recovered for another two days before starting to write the script of "Lover".

It took more than half a month to write this script.

Contact Yang Meng, she is still in Xiangjiang, so she can only mail the script first.

After a month or so, Lin Weimin finally finished the script.

Now in addition to my own novels, I only have the scripts I promised to CCTV and TVB.

That thing had to wait for CCTV and TVB to confirm the cooperation before starting to write. He was not in a hurry and continued to write his own novel.

In May, "Let the Bullets Fly" was performed at the Capital Theater.

Lin Weimin specially picked a day to invite Shi Tiesheng to watch a play. When they left the theater, Shi Lan followed behind, deliberately pinned the Walkman to his waist, and wore a pair of headphones on his ears. He walked behind the two of them, catching the eyes of passers-by. , don't mention the wind.

"This girl is really good at playing the game." Lin Weimin couldn't help complaining.

Shi Tiesheng smiled and said, "I thought about it when I bought it."

After laughing at Shi Lan, the two discussed the drama again. Shi Tiesheng's face was tired, but his thoughts were still unfinished.

The next day, Lin Weimin was working in the office when Wang Shuo showed up after a long absence.

Lin Weimin now has no hope for him, "Why are you here?"

"Look at what you're asking, what else can you do? Send the manuscript!" Wang Shuo said, looking a little guilty.

It has been more than a year since he published his last article, and Ah Cheng published three articles during this period.

Lin Weimin looked at Wang Shuo uncomfortably like a seasoned female voter, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"It's nothing, no wonder the efficiency is so low, it's useless!"

"Fart!" Wang Shuo was like a cat whose tail was stepped on.

He was anxious, he was anxious, proving that I was right.

Lin Weimin said again earnestly: "It's okay, don't waste your time on women, and spend more time on creation. Men should put their career first."

Wang Shuo sneered: "It's like you? You have a girlfriend, and you're like a bachelor!"

"I'm not in vain!"

"you**!"

After hurting each other, Lin Weimin finally turned over the manuscript.

After watching it for a long time, the brows were erected and wrinkled into "Chuan".

"Your manuscript is not good!"

"Why can't it work?"

Lin Weimin picked a lot of problems with the manuscript, and filled Wang Shuo's face with depression.

"We definitely can't publish it on "Contemporary", but if you post it on "Woodpecker", it is possible."

"Woodpecker" is a legal literature journal sponsored by the public security system. It was founded in 1980. The novels published on it are all about criminal investigation and crime solving.

The content of this novel by Wang Shuo is in line with the positioning of "Woodpecker".

"Then I'll change it!" Wang Shuo said resolutely.

"It's useless to change it, your novel is almost meaningless."

Wang Shuo was completely disappointed by Lin Weimin's merciless words. He took the manuscript back, put it in his bag in frustration, and was about to leave.

At this time, Lin Weimin said: "How about..."

Wang Shuo turned his head and looked at Lin Weimin with a somewhat hopeful expression.

"We are working on "Selected Contemporary Novella Series". The style is more popular. Your novel can be included in it. How about it?"

Wang Shuo didn't expect that there would be a turnaround, and he said pleasantly, "Okay, as long as it can be published."

mock up!I can't cure you yet!
Lin Weimin didn't deliberately make things difficult for Wang Shuo. It was indeed a bit reluctant for him to publish this novel on "Contemporary", but when it came to the fish in his mouth, there was no reason to let it go.

"Contemporary" can't do it, so let's put it in the series!
It's all their own meat, and if it rots, it will rot in the pot.

After talking about the manuscript, Lin Weimin couldn't help but say a few words about Wang Shuo.

"The work will not lie, you have been slack for more than a year, and what you got in return is that the work can't even appear in the main issue of "Contemporary".

I won't say much else, you go back and think about it for yourself. "

Wang Shuo was ashamed by what he said.

At this moment, Tong Zhonggui knocked on the door and shouted: "Mr. Lin, I have your international mail!"
